Chapter Twenty-Four: The First Monk
The middle-aged man said goodbye to Wang Chengfeng when he was sent to the airport and went back to settle his parents. Wang Chengfeng did not board the plane to Wudang Mountain, but went to the United States.
There are so many people in Huaxia that finding a person by name alone is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
But Wang Chengfeng knew that the big man had appeared in the American casino, and he also knew that the big man had a lot of power there, so Wang Chengfeng decided to start from the black forces in the United States.
What is extremely strange is that I don't know if those underworld forces knew that Wang Chengfeng was coming or was suppressed by the local government that day, they all disappeared, and no matter how Wang Chengfeng investigated, he found nothing.
In the end, there was no way, Wang Chengfeng tried to call Hu Dewu's phone again. But for three whole days, Hu Dewu's phone still didn't get through.
Helpless, Wang Chengfeng also thought about asking the middle-aged man for help, but for various reasons, Wang Chengfeng endured it.
"It's better not for me to see you, or I'll make you regret even violating the principle that monks are not allowed to interfere in worldly affairs!" Thinking of what they were doing to their parents, Wang Chengfeng clenched his fists and said viciously.
After saying that, he rushed to the airport.
......
Wudang Wonderland, mysterious and ethereal, is known as "the unparalleled victory of the ancients, the first immortal mountain in the world".
The scenery here is beautiful, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful. The peaks are gorgeous, high and dangerous, and the momentum is magnificent. There are seventy-two peaks lined with arrows, thirty-six rocks hanging deep on the cliff, twenty-four streams of turbulent streams, eleven holes of clouds and smoke steaming, and ten stones and nine platforms of mysterious and peculiar things.
The perennial purple gas between the peaks is dense, the wind and clouds are unpredictable, and the clouds are misty, showing the mysterious ethereal spirit of Wudang Wonderland everywhere. Such mysterious and mysterious natural landscapes make people marvel at the magic of heavenly creations.
In addition to the scenery, there is also Wudang martial arts.
Legend Wudang martial arts, mysterious and ethereal, with Tai Chi, Xingyi, gossip is good, and Wudang Taoism has a deep origin. When Wudang Taoist priests practice Taoism, they are often accompanied by the practice of martial arts, so that the masters of Wudang Taoist priests are like clouds.
These Taoist priests take health preservation as the purpose and regard the technique as the last learning, and have the characteristics and functions of still wanting to be not strong, pulling four or two thousand catties, overcoming rigidity with softness, preemptive after the strike, prolonging life, dispelling diseases and preventing diseases.
And with its loose and natural, action frame such as floating clouds and flowing water in the unique style of the martial arts, it has become a famous sect of Chinese martial arts, known as "Shaolin in the north, Wudang in the south".
It seems that countless movies and TV series have become synonymous with them.
However, ordinary people simply know that this is a place where the secular world and the immortal cultivation world are connected.
When he arrived at Wudang Mountain, Wang Chengfeng did feel that there was still aura here.
He knew that if he wanted to enter the Immortal Cultivation Realm, he had to find the person in charge here first.
So, Wang Chengfeng set his sights on the main peak of Wudang Mountain, the peak of Tianzhu Peak.
At this time, it was getting late, and it was a good time for Wang Chengfeng to reach the peak. Even if Wudang Mountain has been closed, it is still a piece of cake for Wang Chengfeng to reach the peak.
By the light of the moon, Wang Chengfeng rode all the way, ran for about fifty miles in one breath on the winding road in Laoying Town before stopping, and finally reached the peak after climbing for another hour.
The aura at the top of the peak is getting richer and stronger, and on the top of the peak, there is a golden palace.
This golden palace is heavy eaves and ridges, the wing angles are flying, and the temple ridge is decorated with immortals, birds and beasts, and the shape is vivid and realistic. There are 12 cylinders below, and the structure is dexterous and exquisite. On the forehead and ceiling, carved and cast flowing clouds, spindles and other decorative patterns, the lines are soft and smooth.
The base of the temple is a stone platform built of granite masonry, and the stone carving railing is circumferential, which is solemn and dignified.
The statue of the god in the hall, several cases, the offering utensils are all cast in bronze, the middle is enshrined in the true martial emperor, wearing a robe lined with armor, draped hair and feet, rich and magnificent, it is the most beautiful statue of a true martial god on Wudang Mountain.
There are golden boys and jade girls standing on the side, restrained and obedient, elegant and handsome, two generals of "water and fire", standing in two compartments, majestic and brave.
According to legend, this golden palace was built by Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who took the throne of his nephew Jianwen, on the Tianzhu Peak of Wudang Mountain, for the true martial god, and was nominated as "Dayue Taihe Palace".
When he arrived here, Wang Chengfeng used his divine sense to investigate, and he could feel that the entrance to the Immortal Cultivation Realm and the Spirit Gathering Array of Wudang Mountain were all in the hall.
At the same time, Wang Chengfeng's divine soul also swept to the hall and sat an old Taoist with a fairy wind dao bone, crane hair and a childish face, holding a dust whisk in his hand, and cultivating with his eyes closed.
This Taoist obviously also discovered Wang Chengfeng, and only heard him say through the temple door: "Daoist friends come to visit late at night, I don't know what the so-called thing is?"
Wang Chengfeng came to the front of the store with a slight jump, pushed open the door of the hall and walked in: "I am here just to enter the immortal cultivation realm." ”
"Is there a gang in the Immortal Cultivation Realm to take in Daoists?" the old Taoist asked without moving.
"Nope. Wang Chengfeng replied truthfully.
"Does that fellow Daoist know the rules for entering the Immortal Cultivation Realm?" the old Taoist asked again.
"I know, my cultivation has reached a level. Wang Chengfeng said.
"The old man is not talking about this rule, but another. The old man said.
Wang Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, his master hadn't told him any other rules for entering the immortal cultivation realm, so he said unceremoniously to the old Taoist: "I think you want to have benefits!"
The old Taoist was a little helpless, opened his eyes and smiled bitterly: "Why do every one of you monks who want to go to the Immortal Cultivation Realm think so?"
"Otherwise?" Wang Chengfeng asked rhetorically.
"Speaking of this rule, in fact, it has only been in recent years. In order to eliminate Wang Chengfeng's misunderstanding of him, the old Taoist said calmly, and added: "Because in recent years, it has become more and more difficult for talents in the secular world to embark on the road of cultivating immortals, which has led to fewer and fewer monks in the immortal cultivation world who belong to the past from the secular world. In order to allow the monks who passed from the secular world to have the ability to protect themselves, the secular world gang left a gatekeeper at the interface between the secular world and the immortal cultivation world, and also set a rule: all monks who did not join the gang or were not accepted by the immortal cultivation world gang must defeat the secular gatekeeper before entering the immortal cultivation world. ”
Hearing what the old Taoist said, Wang Chengfeng realized that he had to defeat this old Taoist in order to enter the immortal cultivation realm, and he also knew that he had misunderstood this old Taoist, so he compensated the old Taoist, and the old Taoist didn't bother with him.
However, it is not difficult to hear from the words of the old Taoist that there is no need to defeat the gatekeeper when a monk who is accepted by the Immortal Cultivation Realm gang enters the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
"It's okay, I originally wanted to understand the power of Wudang Taiji!" Wang Chengfeng rubbed his hands and was eager to try.
But he looked around and felt that he couldn't fight here at all, so he asked the old man, "Are we going to compete here?"
The old Taoist picked up the peachwood sword on the side, got up and said, "Of course not, our battlefield is in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. Come with the old man!"
As he spoke, the old Taoist walked behind the statue of Emperor Zhenwu and disappeared.
Wang Chengfeng followed the old Taoist to the back of the statue of Emperor Zhenwu, only to feel that the space around him suddenly shattered, and then he was in a trance, and he entered a new world.
