Volume 1: The Storm on the River Chapter 3: The Three Mountains are in the Same Vein, and Dayue Meets the Immortal Master.
Bai Yujing went all the way south, and after another month, he came to Baihe County, Jinzhou. The land here is near the lake, and there are relatively few famines, even if there are some displaced people, the government and the squires have bought soup kitchens together. Bai Yujing didn't want to wait for alms with those homeless people, so he walked around the county seat and came to a teahouse at noon.
"I heard that there was a group of bandits who occupied the mountains and became kings in Hanyin County, and they all entered the county. Now in this world, it is really becoming more and more impossible to live. ”
"I heard my nephew say the day before yesterday that the county magistrate had gone to Jinzhou, and now the entire Hanyin County has become a mess. ”
"Then the old men of the Golden State must not die in a hurry......"
A group of people were chatting there drinking tea, and Bai Yujing begged the store for a drink. When the shopkeeper saw that he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he was dressed in tatters and sloppy, and felt pity, and not only gave him a bowl of boiled water, but also gave him two big steamed buns.
"You say those bandits won't kill us, do you?"
"How is it possible, our military households in Baihe County are not comparable to those Han Yin people, so the three of them dare not dare. ”
"However, I heard that there was a big thief in Ziyang County, who specialized in some murderous and oversold goods, and even Zhang Tianleiju, the master of the rich side, was killed by him and ruined his wealth. One of them said suddenly.
"Hey, how can there be such chaos in this world? ”
"Old man Zhu, your news is already behind, and the thief was caught yesterday. ”
"So fast, that thief is said to be a practitioner, Xishan's big boxer Wang Wu can't take him, where is Ziyang County from such a capable person?" The old man Zhu obviously didn't believe it.
"Hah...... I can't lie to you, I heard that the Taoist priest on Dayue Mountain happened to be passing by, so I caught him by the way. ”
"Oh, it turned out to be a Taoist priest from Dayue Mountain, that must be true. When everyone heard that it was a Taoist priest from Dayue Mountain, they were convinced.
When Bai Yujing heard their expressions, he couldn't help but wonder: "Is the Taoist priest of Taiyue Mountain so powerful?"
When everyone saw that he was called Huazi, they didn't discriminate at all, and one of them smiled: "The Taoist priest of Dayue Mountain is not powerful, so there will be no powerful people in the world." Even the emperor and his old man sent the officials of the capital to repair the house for the Taoist priests of Taiyue Mountain, do you say it is powerful?"
Bai Yujing was a little puzzled and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, I only know that there are five mountains, how can there be an extra big mountain here?"
"Hey, I didn't think you were still a little Taoist priest? You should have come from the north like this, right?" the shopkeeper was slightly surprised, "Dayue is Wudang Mountain, and Emperor Taizong of this dynasty was personally canonized." ”
It turned out to be Wudang, how could Bai Yujing not know about Wudang. Master has long said that the two leaders of the two righteous paths in the rivers and lakes, Shaolin in the north and Wudang in the south.
Someone laughed and said: "You said that you are a Taoist priest, then you should have read some Taoist scriptures, you can go to Dayue to try, every year here and there are miscellaneous little Taoist priests." ”
"Little Taoist, don't listen to his nonsense, it's not easy to enter Dayue, it is said that many sons and nephews of the old man of the official family want to worship in Dayue, they have to look at the opportunity. If you really read some Taoist scriptures, the master there will definitely take you in. ”
Bai Yujing was originally confused, and he didn't know where to rest. At this time, when they mentioned Wudang, a glimmer of light rose in their hearts. He doesn't know when he will be able to enter the normal state, so it is better to go to Wudang, where he has a place to live and can learn a good martial arts.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but thank the shopkeeper, asked the way to Wudang Mountain, and left happily.
This Baihe County is not very far from Junzhou, where Wudang Mountain is located, and Bai Yujing arrived at the foot of Wudang Mountain two days later. At this time, spring has just begun, and the snow in the mountains has melted. Thousands of peaks are blue, thousands of mountains are towering and green, the sun rises in the east on the top of Tianzhu Peak, and a piece of golden light is splendid.
Next to the sword stone, Bai Yujing was blocked by two Taoist priests.
"Hurry up, little Hanako, this is not the place you came from. The face of the person who spoke was a little long, not very old, he looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and he looked at Bai Yujing's sloppy appearance with a look of disgust. He was even about to move forward to drive Bai Yujing away, but another man who was a little older hurriedly grabbed his left shoulder, "Senior Brother Yang, what are you talking about with such a child." ”
After speaking, he smiled at Bai Yujing and said: "This Dayue Mountain is high and dangerous, you are young, it is better not to go up alone." There is no soup soup on the mountain, if you are hungry, you can go to Lijiazhuang, three miles away, where we have a soup kitchen. ”
Bai Yujing saluted him and said: "This senior brother, Xiaodao is also a person in the three mountains, but it coincided with an earthquake, and the Taoist Temple was destroyed in a flash. ”
The people in the Three Mountains he said were the Three Mountains Blood Dripping Sect established by Zhang Jixian, the thirtieth generation of Heavenly Master Zhang Jixian in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Three Mountains of Dragon and Tiger, Maoshan and Ge Soap. In the early years of this dynasty, Wudang Mountain also joined the Three Mountains Dripping Blood Sect and belonged to Zhengyi to distinguish the northern Quanzhen.
The old Taoist priest was slightly stunned, and before he could reply, a slightly old voice sounded behind Bai Yujing: "Little Taoist, you said that you are from the Three Mountains, what is Zhengyi?"
Bai Yujing turned around, and it was an elderly old Taoist priest who spoke, wearing a bright red Taoist robe. He has a fair face, slanted eyebrows, a whisk in his hand, and a long sword obliquely inserted behind his back, quite a bit of ancient swordsman style. Beside him was a middle-aged man who looked like an old farmer in the field, his face was wrinkled, and the vicissitudes of life were like ploughed fields.
"Xiaodao has seen the Taoist, the righteous are not evil, and the other is not mixed. The heart of righteousness is the unity of all laws, so it is said to be one. Bai Yujing has been familiar with all kinds of Taoist scriptures since he can remember, and when he heard this old Taoist priest talk about Zhengyi, he couldn't help but answer casually.
"The righteous are not evil, and the other is not mixed, this is a wonderful saying. The old Taoist priest praised, and the middle-aged man like an old farmer couldn't help but look at Bai Yujing more. "Little Taoist, you should have learned the three caves of the true scriptures, what are these three caves, and what are the four auxiliaries?"
"The three caves, Dong Zhen, Dong Xuan, Dong Shenye, and the four auxiliaries, Taixuan, Taiping, Taiqing, and Zhengyi. Dong Zhen Taixuan is supplemented, Dong Xuan Taiping is supplemented, and Dong Shen Taiqing is supplemented. ”
The old Taoist priest saw that Bai Yujing answered fluently, and asked: "Taishangyun: the god of grain is immortal, why not?"
"Valley, raise also, those who can raise gods will not die. This god is the god of the five organs: the liver hides the soul, the lungs hides the soul, the heart hides the blood, the kidneys hide the essence, and the spleen hides the qi. ”
He then asked a few more questions, and Bai Yu Kyoto answered them fluently, which made the old Taoist priest both surprised and delighted. He is now over the age of Jiazi, nearly the age of antiquity, and this time he went out of Ge Soo Mountain to find a disciple to inherit his learning. If he hadn't met He Xinyin on the road, he wouldn't have come to this Wudang Mountain.
It seems that everything is a certainty.
"Little Taoist, what's your name?"
"Master gave the name Bai Yujing, but the Taoist is the real person of Wudang Mountain?" Bai Yujing said.
"Haha......" The old Taoist priest laughed and said: "The old Taoist is not a real person from Wudang Mountain, didn't you just say that you are also from the Three Mountains?
Bai Yujing was slightly stunned, he never thought that someone would take him as an apprentice.
"You little Taoist priest, you were quite smart just now, why are you stupid now that good things come to the door?" The middle-aged man who had not spoken suddenly said, and after he finished speaking, he said to the two Taoist priests: "Trouble with Daoist Wang Youren, just say that He Xinyin is visiting." ”
"It turned out to be a Jiangxi hero in person, and Zhao Shiquan (Yang Zhichun) had seen a hero. The two Taoist priests listened to the middle-aged man's words and hurriedly saluted. After Master Zhao finished saluting, he said, "Senior Brother Yang, you have a good time here to greet guests, and I will go to invite Uncle Wang." With that, he galloped up the mountain.
After thinking about it for a while, Bai Yujing made up his mind, and this old Taoist priest also looked a little promising. After all, Ge Soshan he still heard the master mention that it was the dojo of Tai Chi Immortals. Now that Wuzhi Mountain has disappeared, even if you want to avenge your master, you have to find a place to stay.
He couldn't help but kneel on the ground, but just as he knelt down, he felt a soft force support his knees, making him unable to kneel.
"Good apprentice, there is no need to make this great gift now, and it is not too late for you to follow me up to Gesoap Mountain. Quan Qingzi smiled. He pulled Bai Yujing and asked some questions from the Taoist scriptures, and it seemed that he was really happy to see the hunt.
Not long after, an old Taoist priest in a white-gray Taoist robe rushed over, and Zhao Shiquan didn't know if his feet were too strong to fall behind. "Haha......" His laughter rolled like thunder, unusually full of energy, "Brother He, what kind of wind blew you here? Hey, and Quan Qingzi, you old talent." It's rare that you're even looking for me. ”
Quan Qingzi didn't want to talk to him more, but Wang Youren was really the same. He Xinyin said with a smile: "Governor Hu wants to hunt down Xu Hai Yema and others recently, and he is afraid that the Japanese ronin under his command will be rampant, so he recruits people from the rivers and lakes to fight against the Japanese Kou, He Mou came to Wudang Mountain, it is really to move the rescue!"
When Wang Youren heard this, he was shocked.
Although he was the governor of Zhejiang, after Zhang Jing and Li Tianzhong were killed, one of them was in charge of Zhejiang's military affairs, vowing to pacify Jiangnan and sweep away the Japanese invaders. And Xu Hai and Ye Ma are the most rampant Japanese leaders among the Japanese Bandits, except for the owners of the Five Peaks.
"Isn't Brother He already quitting the Governor's Shogunate? Why bother wading through the troubled waters again. Wang Youren said with a solemn expression.
He Xinyin said lightly: "A person is small, the country is big, if you can sweep away the widows, even if you give up this body of flesh and skin, what a pity!"
"Brother He really deserves the name of a hero, since Brother He has such pride, Poor Dao naturally sacrifices his life to accompany him!" Wang Youren smiled, "This old Xiucai was also invited by you?"
Quan Qingzi snorted coldly, and suddenly thought of a difficult matter, he looked at Bai Yujing, how can this be good? He Xinyin saw his mind at a glance, and said with a smile: "Isn't Dao Chang worried that you will go to Jiangnan with me and others, and you will not be able to arrange this little disciple who has just been accepted?"
"Yike...... Lao Xiucai has a new disciple?" Wang Youren was originally curious why these two people still brought a little Huazi, and when he heard He Xinyin say that he was a new disciple of Quan Qingzi, he couldn't help but look Bai Yujing up and down, but he really didn't see anything surprising, so he couldn't help but say casually: "What's so difficult about this, for the time being, leave him in Wudang first, and let Senior Brother Songxi take care of one or two." ”
Quan Qingzi pondered for a while, this might as well be a way, anyway, it will be at least a month, and at most only half a year, so it is good to leave Bai Yujing in Wudang for the time being.
The three of them agreed to set off the next day, along with dozens of young disciples of the Wudang Sect. Bai Yujing, on the other hand, was left behind in Tianzhu Peak and taken care of by Wang Youren's junior brother Zhang Songxi.
