Volume 1 Hearing the Tao Thousand Clears Chapter 15 Hearing the Truth
Li Qingchen couldn't, so he had to touch his half-full stomach and tell the three of them about what happened in the Void Pole Palace in the morning.
Of course, he would definitely not say anything about the Yuan Miao Dao Chief, but he swore an oath in front of the Yuan Miao Dao Chief's soul. There is also the matter of the holy beast, and the master also told him not to let others know about it for the time being.
"Okay, that's all, let me finish my meal quickly and go to deliver food to the master, in the afternoon the master said that there is still homework to do......" Li Qingchen said hurriedly, he was really only half full, and he was still hungry.
"Alright, alright, eat your meal. Mo Ru took a bowl of rice and handed it to Li Qingchen, and the smile on his face couldn't be hidden.
"Since the senior brother in charge accepts you as an apprentice, you should follow him to cultivate, Chen Qing that kid's kendo is amazing and gorgeous, but it's a pity that it's ......" Mo Li sighed, looked at Mo Ru and said: "Back then, he swore to kill your mother and son when he went down the mountain, did you hate him?"
Mo Ru nodded, then shook her head again. She said, "Master, I was brought up by you, and you know my temperament. Back then, Senior Brother Chen Qing wanted to kill our mother and son, and I naturally gritted my teeth with hatred, but it has been 20 years since this incident, and in the past 20 years, although I have been persistent, I feel more guilty about Senior Brother Chen, after all, I have failed him first. ”
Mo Li sighed: "That's it, he is dead now, he should let go of any feelings, he is the first disciple of the senior brother in charge, and now this child Qingchen has also entered the disciple of the senior brother, maybe this is the will of heaven......"
Mo Ru turned his head to look at Li Qingchen, Li Qingchen was gobbling up the fragrance of food at this time, and he didn't pay any attention to Mo Ru's relieved and sad expression.
Lei Bingruo saw it on the side, and then looked at the master, showing a thoughtful look.
"I'm full, Uncle Mo Li, where is the food box, I'll go and serve rice to Master. Li Qingchen stood up, saluted Mo Li, and asked.
"If you want a food box, you have to go to the dining room to get it, you don't know the way, let Bingruo take you, there are still some hot meals there, you can pack some for your master to bring, you don't have to run again." Mo Li said.
"Yes, Master. ”
"Yes, Uncle Mo. ”
Lei Bingruo said yes and stood up, Li Qingchen sat in his seat and listened to Mo Ru's explanation, then stood up and left the room with Lei Bingruo. In the dining room, Li Qingchen took the food box and filled it with some food, and Lei Bingruo took Li Qingchen out of Zizhu Palace and walked towards Xuji Palace.
"Alright, I'll take you here, and I need to go back and get my homework for the afternoon. ”
"Do you have homework in the afternoon?"
"No, there wasn't one in the past, but this time the head of the house has an order, and the master ordered us to go to the Scripture Pavilion in the afternoon to learn the mantra of eliminating demons. ”
"Okay, I'm going to deliver food to Master too, you go back and be careful, Senior Sister Bingruo. Li Qingchen said, and then he seemed to remember something, and scratched his head: "That, Senior Sister Bingruo, thank you all the way......"
"Senior Brother Qingchen is polite, I'll go back. After that, he sacrificed a bamboo Xiao, and Yu Xiao left.
Li Qingchen saw it in his eyes, he was envious, he said in his heart: "When can I be so chic and comfortable...... shook his head, he hurriedly ran into the Void Pole Palace and went to find the head of Yuankong.
"Master, I brought the rice. Li Qingchen ran into the inner hall and saw that the head of Yuankong was meditating, and he shouted softly.
The head of Yuankong opened his eyes, and with a wave of his palm, the food box landed firmly beside him.
"Let's get started...... said the head of Yuankong, and got up and walked to the shelves full of books. "This is the book you're going to read, and I've picked each one, so let's start with this one. The head of Yuankong said, and threw Li Qingchen a book.
"The Dao Gate has to be passed. Li Qingchen glanced at it, and suddenly turned into a bitter gourd face: "Master, can you pass me some swordsmanship, spells or something, I can't understand this thing...... Yuan Miaodao has passed on my psychic secret for a long time, and I have only read the preface until now. ”
"Hehe, Qingchen, come, sit down, wait for the teacher to speak to you, and then you decide whether to see or not, to cultivate or not to cultivate. Yuankong Dao Chang smiled.
The two sat on the futon, Li Qingchen looked reluctant, he knew that the master must be reasonable, although he felt that the master's reasoning was thorough, but the key was that he didn't understand, instead of reading books and reciting scriptures, it was better to let him practice swords and learn spells.
"On the way to cultivation, you only heard about it before, and some of the methods and things you have heard about may not be accurate enough. Our Tianjimen inheritance for 3,000 years, for the Tao is naturally to be proficient, although after thousands of years, there are many fewer Taoist disciples, but it does not mean that our Taoism has become worse. You are not asked to read these books to torture you and temper your mind. It's to give you some understanding of the way to cultivation. ”
"Moreover, the Taoist gate is not prosperous, and the reasons are varied, chaotic and complicated. It's just that since there was the rule of emperors in the world, the Dao Gate has gradually declined, and the Taoist temples in the mortal world have gradually decreased, so the disciples recruited by the Tianji Gate have become fewer and fewer, and the power to resist the changes of the heavens and the evil things is getting weaker and weaker. Let you read these books so that you can understand the changes in them, and don't go down the mountain in the future and only know the door, but not the world. ”
"And, and most importantly, this is the purpose of our Daomen: 'My Daomen disciples must take the protection of the common people as their own responsibility, and must not participate in any battles that have nothing to do with the common people, and must not kill for no reason. In this way, there are many more in the book, and I hope you will remember them. ”
The head of Yuankong said for a long time, and Li Qingchen also went from a bitter look to a bitter look later.
"Master, can't I listen to you well? Reading those books, my temperament is really ......," Li Qingchen begged.
The head of Yuankong shook his head, and he said: "Master will leave you one day, I'm afraid that I will pass on this Heavenly Machine Gate to you, if you blindly listen to me, it is just the Tao in my mouth, not the way you cultivated, how can you bear this responsibility in the future?"
"Then I don't accept it...... Li Qingchen said nonchalantly.
"Even if you don't accept it, the Tianji Gate will be carried forward in the hands of other senior brothers, but what are you cultivating for?!
"I ...... I ......" Li Qingchen was yelled at by the head of Yuankong, and he couldn't answer for a long time, he originally wanted to learn martial arts in order to be handsome, but later he knew the truth, so he wanted to be a chivalrous man like his father, and then it was Lei Lao's advice, he came up with the idea of entering the Tao to cultivate and live up to Lei Lao's expectations. Protecting the common people, although he was very excited to hear what the master said, he didn't think much about it in his heart......
"Go ahead, Qingchen...... Go ahead, do what you ask for your teacher, and don't let down the hard work of Yuan Miao Dao Chang and your teacher. Elder Yuankong stood up and walked towards the outer hall.
"Master, don't go, I can't read, I'm just ...... Ouch!" Li Qingchen followed the head of Yuankong, but was hit by something. He hammered and slammed and slammed, but he couldn't get through.
"Don't bother it, I've already laid out the formation, I'll study hard in it these days, and I'll let people deliver food on time. The food box you brought just now should be regarded as tonight's meal, for the teacher to go down the mountain, and when I return, I will check your homework. The head of Yuankong arranged, not moved by Li Qingchen's pitiful appearance at all, and then left with his sleeves fluttering.
"Master, don't, you untie the formation, don't leave me here alone......" Li Qingchen's depressed and aggrieved cry resounded throughout the Void Pole Palace, but unfortunately, only the thousand spirit birds that flew up outside the hall responded to him.
"Senior Brother Sect Master, what are you doing this for?" As soon as the head of Yuankong walked out of the Void Pole Palace, Mo Li appeared in front of him and asked.
"I have my own reasons for doing this, but you, why do you have the leisure time to come to me, don't you want to steal my collection of books to show your precious apprentices?"
"Senior brother...... Mo Li's face turned red and said, "It's been a long time, and you're still making fun of me." ”
"Haha, okay, let's not talk about it, you're here to ask about the matter. "Yuankong is in charge.
"Well, when you accepted Chen Qing as a disciple, we were all puzzled, and we all strongly objected, just because his behavior was really strange. Now you have accepted Qingchen as a disciple again, although ...... Although he is the child of Mo Ru and Yunshan, he knows the roots, but his qualifications ......" Before Mo Li finished speaking, he was interrupted by the head of Yuankong.
"Senior Sister Mo, I understand your worries, you are afraid that his qualifications are too poor, the Dao Fa cannot be improved, and he can't afford the heavy task of reviving the Daomen...... In fact, before I met Qingchen's child, I had already thought about not accepting disciples anymore. In the future, you may be a disciple of other junior disciples, or a disciple of your sect, just choose a person with decent talent to be the head. But after seeing Qingchen's child, I decided that the position of head of the family in the future would inevitably be handed over to him. ”
"Senior brother, where can he afford this position as the head of the family, you know, our Tianji Gate is now getting more and more declining, if the demon clan attacks in the future, how many people can resist it? Senior brother prides himself on protecting the people of the world as his own responsibility, isn't what he is doing now child's play?" Mo Li said excitedly.
"Have you forgotten what Senior Brother did in the first place?" reminded the head of Yuankong.
"The art of deduction! Isn't it Senior Brother, you calculated that he is the one who revived the Daomen?" Mo Li exclaimed.
The head of Yuankong shook his head and said slowly: "He has the breath of the Green Dragon Holy Beast on his body. ”
"What! Blue Dragon Holy Beast!" Mo Li exclaimed again.
The head of Yuankong nodded solemnly: "You don't have to make a noise about this matter, just know." I traveled down the mountain this time, and I came to follow the traces of the demons. Second, let's explore the whereabouts of the four holy beasts, which is not only related to the revival of the Daomen, but also related to the future war with the demons. After a pause, he said, "How is Bingruo's child now?"
"The kid was still holding on at noon, and it was distressing to watch. Mo Li replied.
"You and Mo Ru should take care of her more, I have to hurry down the mountain, and in a later time, the world will be more dangerous." The head of Yuankong sighed, and he wanted to go with his sword.
"Senior brother, be careful...... Mo Li admonished.
The head of Yuankong nodded and ordered: "Don't forget to let the disciples practice the method of eliminating demons more, and remember to deliver food to Qingchen's child on time...... I'll go now, and you can convey it to the other juniors on my behalf. ”
After the head of Yuankong finished speaking, he took out a long sword with a simple style and floated away. Mo Li watched the head of Yuankong leave, and also turned around and left the vicinity of the Void Pole Palace.
In the inner hall of the Xuji Palace, Li Qingchen was holding a copy of "The Essentials of the Daomen", studying it with a painful face......
