Chapter 2 Secret Talks at the Post Station
Feng Shaoyang was reluctant to get up at this time, sat at the table, and talked to Qingxu Dao Chang, maybe it was extreme fatigue, or maybe the nervous mood relaxed suddenly, and after a while, he fell asleep on the table.
Qingxu Dao Chang sighed slightly, picked up Feng Shaoyang, put him on the bed and slept well, and looked at it silently with loving eyes for a while before he walked to the table and picked up his pen to write a letter.
At night, when the lights were in charge, the deacon of the building sent lanterns to illuminate the room. Qingxu Daoist was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, when he suddenly heard two gentle knocks on the door, and after a while, there were two more sounds.
Qingxu Dao Chang opened his eyes, put down his legs and sat upright, and whispered, "Come in." ”
The door opened, revealing a masked man in a black cloak. After the masked man entered, he stood still and lifted the cap back sharply, and it turned out to be a middle-aged man with a white complexion, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, neatly trimmed sideburns, and a black beard floating under his chin. The man looked at Qingxu Dao Chang, his expression was excited, his lips trembled, his eyes were moist, and after a while, he knelt down with a "poof", and said in a trembling voice: "Qingyun greets the master, you ...... You're back. When he said the last half of the sentence, his voice choked up a little.
Although the Qingxu Daoist was also in a surging mood, he still sat upright and said softly: "No courtesy, get up and talk back." ”
"Thank you, boss. Qingyun answered, and then stood up.
Qingxu Daoist then got up, took two steps forward, grabbed Qingyun's hands, and said, "Senior brother, I've worked hard for you in the past few years, but you're okay." ”
Qingyun withdrew his hand and took a step back, bowed down, and said, "Head of Qiqi, Qingyun...... It's not hard, but I'm always worried about the boss, why did you go down the mountain for so long this time......"
Qingxu Daoist did not answer directly, but sighed lightly and said, "Alas, this matter is a long story, you sit down, I have something to ask you." ”
"Qingyun doesn't dare, the head of the family has something to order. ”
"Now that you have seen the courtesy, you don't need to be restrained, but sit down quickly. ”
"Thank you, senior brother. ”
After the two of them sat down, Qingxu Dao Chang hurriedly asked, "Did anyone find out when you came?"
"Senior Brother in charge, as soon as I received your secret letter, I hurriedly instructed the disciples around me, saying that I was going to have an evening class and should not be disturbed, so I hurriedly changed my clothes and came down the mountain from the side peak in disguise to meet you. I don't know what is important, but when I arrived at the foot of this mountain, I didn't let the disciples welcome me up the mountain, and I actually wrote a secret letter to me, and I also used a blue jade card, but I was scared of me, and I was full of doubts on the road when I came, what is this?"
"It's good that no one found out when you came, I don't want the disciples in the sect to know that I have returned, I will slowly tell you about this matter later, there are a few important things you need to handle first. With that, he handed the few pages of letterhead to Daoist Qingyun.
There were not many words on this letter, and the Qingxu Daoist only explained a few things: first, arrange for the right-hand disciples to investigate any news about the Yuntian Palace in Kunlun Mountain; second, not let any other disciples in the sect know that they have returned; third, find a remote and secluded courtyard in the mountain temple, declare it a forbidden area in the sect, and no disciple is allowed to enter at will; fourth, arrange a big car to pick himself up with Feng Shaoyang secretly up the mountain as soon as possible.
Qingyun took it and looked at it quickly, couldn't help frowning, and looked at Qingxu Dao Elder suspiciously.
Qingxu Daoist only asked: "You can see everything, have you written it down?"
"Don't worry, senior brother in charge, I've written it down, but what is this doing, I'm really confused. ”
Daoist Qingxu took the letter, burned it on the fire, and then said, "You are not busy knowing first, let me ask you again, when you come in this courtyard, did the deacon and others in this pavilion see you coming here?"
"Don't worry, senior brother, I jumped in from behind the courtyard, and no one saw me. ”
"That's good, but I'm still not at ease, you need to strictly order the people here not to discuss today's affairs with each other in private, and if necessary, you can rotate the disciples stationed in this post station to the sect industry in other places, it's better to be cautious." ”
"Okay, follow the instructions of the senior brother in charge. ”
"Well, it's not early, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, you go back to the mountain quickly and arrange it as soon as possible." ”
When Qingyun heard what his senior brother said, he was a little reluctant, and said anxiously: "Senior brother, I, I still have a lot to say to my senior brother, this is ......"
"It's better to go back early, otherwise you and I will stay at this post station in disguise and let the disciples in the sect know, wouldn't you be suspicious, thinking that something big has happened, and in this chaotic season, it will only cause trouble. ”
"That's good, the junior brother is retiring, and the senior brother in charge takes care. ”
"Well, okay, looking at your figure just now, my junior brother's cultivation has become much lean again. ”
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment, I have time to work hard when you come back. ”
"You, you know that you have a mind to practice, and you don't care about the world, alas...... Forget it, let's go, be careful on the road. ”
Qingyun bowed to the Qingxu Dao Chief, re-covered the cloak, turned around, and walked out of the door, tiptoeing, his clothes fluttered up, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye, and his figure was even faster than the Qingxu Dao Chief. Qingxu Daoist looked at it, nodded approvingly, stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and then closed the door to rest.
Qingyun saw that the senior brother in charge had returned to the mountain, and he didn't sleep all night, and arranged for his disciples to clean up an extremely quiet and elegant academy early the next morning. After being busy for most of the day, he sent a car to pick up Qingxu Daochang and Feng Shaoyang up the mountain.
Feng Shaoyang sat in the carriage and was excited, wanting to open the curtain and take a look outside, but was stopped by the shouts of the Qingxu Dao chief. Qingxu Dao Chang knew that most of the guards stationed in the first mountain gate and post station under this mountain were outer disciples, and almost no one knew him, but the people guarding everywhere on the mountain road were the high-level disciples of the inner gate, and the team leaders were all beginner-level disciples in the foundation building period, and they would still be recognized if they disguised themselves.
After the last mountain gate, it is the Taoist temple of the Bishan faction, hundreds of halls, palaces, buildings, pavilions and other buildings stretch up along the mountain, very majestic.
At this time, the sunset is twilight, the afterglow is bright, the green peaks are jade, and the clouds are stacked, and a beautiful picture of the world is in the painting.
The academy that was listed as a forbidden place was a three-entry courtyard, which was originally a place of study for the inner disciples of the Bishan School, but later changed to the Tibetan Scripture Academy because of the increasing scarcity of disciples.
Qingxu Daoist and Feng Shaoyang went straight to the innermost courtyard before getting off, at this time, Qingxu Daoist was a little relieved.
The next day, the Qingxu Daoist arranged for the cultivation of Feng Shaoyang.
On the way back to Qingyu Mountain, the Qingxu Daoist taught Feng Shaoyang some of the introductory qi practice formulas and simple spells of the Bishan Sect by the way, and Feng Shaoyang had already memorized it, so it was much more convenient. Feng Shaoyang only needs to meditate and practice qi every day, and try to channel the yang qi running in the blood into the dantian.
Seven days passed quickly, and Feng Shaoyang meditated and practiced hard every day, but the dantian was empty, and there was no trace of true qi being introduced. Another seven days passed, and there was still no progress, and the Qingxu Daoist began to be a little anxious.
Feng Shaoyang is a person with excellent spiritual roots, and his cultivation efficiency should be several times that of ordinary people, and one year of cultivation is worth ten years of ordinary people's work, but at the moment, it is not even feasible to start practicing qi, but on the other hand, the yang qi in his blood obviously has more than a hundred years of cultivation, and such a contradiction makes Qingxu Dao Chang puzzled.
