At the foot of Mount Hua, in the Yuquan Courtyard, in the room of the real person Yuan Zhenzi of the Palm Courtyard, a young guest was sitting. This person is dressed in black, a black sword, the sword is a lion's head and a mouth, and the word is written under the mouth, and it can be vaguely seen that it is a compilation.

"Immeasurable Tianzun, thank you Shi Shaoxia for giving you money and silver, the more than 20 female donors have returned home, and those who don't want to return home have also made some work in Jingding Nunnery. "Yuan Zhenzi has a kind face, crane hair and a childish face, a round face and slightly narrowed eyes, and a somewhat festive appearance. Although he is talking about yellow and white things, Yuan Sadako is an authentic cultivator, and if it weren't for the huge Yuquan Temple that needs to be operated, I'm afraid he will disdain these mundane things.

"Real people don't have to be polite, this is a little respect from my Huashan Sword Sect to the Yuquan Academy. I don't know if the real person of Turbidity Source would like to see me?" The young man is the proud disciple of the Huashan Sword Sect who has returned all the way east, and the little sword is one of the four peers in the rivers and lakes.

"Senior Brother Xunyuan is clearing the snow in the backyard, and the young man can go to see him by himself. Recently, the senior brother may have achieved some success, and he has not avoided the world. Yuan Sadako thought of the one in the backyard, but she admired it very much. With a superior heart and understanding, the master intended to accept him as an apprentice many times, but because of his background identity, he was unable to fulfill his wish. If it weren't for that incident back then, I'm afraid this person would have lost his relationship with Yuquan Academy.

Turbidity Yuanzi was admitted to the hospital later than Yuan Zhenzi, but it was on it, Yuan Zhenzi was not convinced, and he never expected that in just two years, Turbidity Yuanzi's attainments in Taoism would come from behind, surpassing Yuan Zhenzi, and then it was a thousand miles a day, and even the original master felt that he was born with Taoism, an unborn genius.

But thinking about it like this, Yuan Zhenzi thought of the luck of two sects, one is the Huashan Sword Sect, and the other is the Lushan Sect. Needless to say, Lu Yuanfeng's four sons are all talented and intelligent, which is difficult for others to match, and now the father and son are on the same list. Huashan Sword Sect doesn't seem to be so prominent, only Shi Yan, one of the Little Four Uniques, and Taishang Chang Teacher Chun rank seventeenth on the Tiangang list, but thinking of Shi Shaobai, who is now standing at the top of the martial arts, and the turbid source in the backyard, Yuan Zhenzi can't help but sigh in his heart.

The origin of family learning is really not blown out.

"In this way, the juniors have gone to see the real people of Turbidity first. Shi Yan got up, bowed slightly to Yuan Zhenzi, and then after exiting the door, he turned around and walked to the backyard.

The backyard faces the stone wall of Huashan, the ancient trees around it are towering, it is now in early winter, it has already fallen the first snow, the mountain road is slippery in many places, Rao is kung fu is as deep as Shi Yan, you also need to pay attention to the soles of your feet, it is inevitable to slip. Walking in front of the wall, I saw a seventy-year-old Taoist holding a bamboo broom, sweeping the snow piled up under the stone wall one deep and one shallow.

The stone wall is faintly engraved with the Wuji map, which is left by the ancestor of Chen Shu at the end of the Tang Dynasty.

Lao Dao described him as thin and clear-faced, which is different from the mellow Motosadako. But at this moment, dressed in gray clothes, dressed casually in a bun, and the image of emaciation and purity are so harmonious, as if they are melting into heaven and earth, Shi Yan looked at this scene and was silently distracted.

"Now that it's here, what's the benefit of withering?" The old Dao's voice came, but it was empty and leisurely, and he suddenly pulled Shi Yan back from his trance.

"Shi Yan has seen the master. Shi Yan saluted the back of Lao Dao, and Lao Dao continued to sweep the snow on the ground as if he was unaware.

"Your master is Huashan Sword Sect Shi Impermanence, so you don't have to be polite to me. ”

"Yes, master. Shi Yan said, bending down again, but Lao Dao sighed slightly.

"Hey, this time I went out for half a year, but it was hard. Has the Infinite True Sutra ever fallen?"

"Don't dare to slack off for a day. Shi Yan answered the question seriously, his eyes flashed, but he was not as cold as before.

"It's good that you haven't slackened. But you've been drinking lately, haven't you? As he spoke, he turned around, and his thin face was covered with three long white beards, but his eyes were shallow and restrained, as deep as an abyss.

"I didn't dare to deceive the master, and I drank at night with a few friends on the tenth day of September. Shi Yan said, bowing again, and did not straighten up.

"Well, since they are best friends, it doesn't hurt to break the vows. Although it touches the mouth of evil, it is full of true nature. It's good, it's good. You have a weak temperament, and you can be called a best friend, and your character will not be bad. But there is a lot of anger in the chest, go back and chant the Qingjing Sutra. Lao Dao said, nodded, and turned to clear the snow again.

"Follow Master's teachings. Master, the apprentice has been down the mountain for half a year and has traveled a lot. I found a string of sandalwood prayer beads in Tubo by chance, both the workmanship and the quality are good, I want to come to the master to retreat in the Yuquan Temple all the year round, and I have no long things, so I bought it and gave it to the master. Shi Yan took out a brown butter shiny sandalwood bead bracelet from his arms, on which were engraved the five elements gossip pattern.

"I know that I don't have anything to look for, so why bother looking for such things? I am cultivating the Pure Truth, and the emphasis is on cultivating the mind, and external objects are useless to me. The old Taoist didn't say a word back, and the broom in his hand didn't stop for a moment.

When Shi Yan heard this, a little loneliness flashed in his eyes, but he didn't know whether to put away the rosary in his hand or hand it to Lao Dao.

"Well, give me something. I know your filial piety. It's not early, go up the mountain early, I'm afraid it will snow again when it's late. Lao Dao looked up at the sky, turned around and said to Shi Yan.

"Yes, master!" Shi Yan saw that Lao Dao was willing to accept the rosary, so he showed a rare smile, trotted two steps to Lao Dao, and handed Lao Dao both hands.

"Hey, look at you like this. Go ahead, hurry up the mountain. Seeing Shi Yan's smile, Lao Dao felt a little sour in his heart, and after taking the rosary, he hid it in his arms and said something to Shi Yan.

"Yes, the apprentice is leaving. Shi Yan smiled, saluted Lao Dao, and slowly withdrew seven or eight steps before reluctantly turning around and walking towards the front hall.

"Hey, I'm old, and I'm still thinking about it, the homework I've done in the past three days has been all in vain, and I have to start again. Seeing Shi Yan go away, Lao Dao shook his head with a slight wry smile. said so, but there was no expression of regret on his face, but a little relieved.

I couldn't help but put my hand into my arms, took out the bracelet and looked at it, and after playing it twice, I put it on my left hand, and then picked up the broom and continued to sweep the snow. It's just that the bracelet is a little wide, and after sweeping it twice, Lao Dao reluctantly took off the bracelet again, smiled bitterly, and put it in his arms again.

A little farther away, Yuan Sadako stood under the corridor, looking at the figure who was sweeping the snow, with a smile on her face, but she was happy for her senior brother.

The so-called true cultivation is not the end of the dust. Since the beginning of the patriarch Wang Chongyang, Quanzhen Dao has believed that there is no distinction between the three religions, and there is no harm in cultivating them at the same time. Buddhism has a wild fox Zen case, and the turbidity source that falls at this moment is very suitable.

Only when we enter into cause and effect can our cultivation be considered complete......
