Jin Chanzi and Zhang Daoling went to the stage and greeted Taishang Laojun.

Jin Chanzi said, "The ancestor is unpredictable in everything, everything is clear in his heart, everything is expected, and the fun is lost." ”

Taishang Laojun said with a smile, "The way of heaven is impermanent, and the future you see is the future, how can it be the future? Although I see the future, when we get there, the future is farther away. The fun is not in knowing the future, but in changing the future. Watching ant beings struggle under the Heavenly Dao, sinking in the destiny of heaven in the common people, changing their lives against the heavens, and reversing reincarnation in the world, although it is not common, it is not uncommon. ”

Jin Chanzi clasped his hands together and said, "How easy is it to reverse the Mandate of Heaven, how many times can the ancestor see Yuan in a while?"

Taishang Laojun said with a smile, "I don't remember how many ancestors in the past, some people succeeded, some people failed, some people lost their dust, they were full of white bones, some people had immortality, and they didn't know where to go." The more and more white bones gathered, too many people began to panic, conformed to the way of heaven, accepted the destiny of heaven, bent their backs, knelt down their knees, and let that fate enslave. Fortunately, five hundred years later, there was a prosperous era against the sky, which is worth seeing. Golden cicada, you might as well go and have a look. ”

Jin Chanzi lowered his eyes and said, "There are many things in this world that I can't help myself, and those who want to go when the time comes, I'm afraid that I can't go, and those who don't want to go have to go." ”

Sun Wukong said with a smile, "This monk, it's so unpleasant, if you want to go, you can come, you can come, your legs are on your body, how can others influence you?"

Jin Chanzi smiled bitterly, "Even if you go, you can't reach the end, so why go?"

Sun Wukong scratched his ears and cheeks, jumped up and down, and said: "The road in the world is no longer than a foot, as long as you go, I don't believe that you can't get it, right, Master?"

Taishang Laojun smiled and said: "You cunning, this perseverance and firmness, self-confidence and open-mindedness, the countdown is rare, where the heart goes, where can it not be reached?

The words of Taishang Laojun, like the evening drum and morning bell, knocked on the heart of the golden cicada, meditated, stood on one side, and tasted what Fang Cai said.

Taishang Laojun did not bother, and said to Zhang Daoling: "You buried yourself in the study at the age of 7, read the "Tao Te Ching", "Hetu", and "Luo Shu" hard, and comprehended its mysteries. At the age of 19, he set up a tent to teach, had no intention of officialdom, and decided to cultivate the Tao to save the people and spread the word to thousands of families. He preached in Qingcheng Mountain, Longhu Mountain, and Bashu area, founded the 'Five Bucket Rice Road', and the Heming Mountain rose to the sky, and the Jade Emperor gave him the position of Heavenly Master, how long has it been?"

Zhang Daoling said respectfully: "Fortunately, the ancestors of Taishang Dao passed on my male and female swords, exorcism talismans, five buckets of rice Dao can be inherited, and the small path can be cultivated to achieve positive results. ”

Taishang Laojun stroked his long beard and said, "Where you preach, what dynasty and dynasty is it now?"

Zhang Daoling pinched his fingers and calculated, calculated the whereabouts of the dragon veins, the change of dynasties, and the location of the Son of Heaven, and said: "It is the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty reigned, this emperor's surname is resolute and harsh, the rule of officials is very clear, and the territory is stable. ”

Taishang Laojun continued to ask: "I heard that Buddhism has entered the Eastern Han Dynasty?"

Zhang Daoling ran the heavenly eyes to look around, has seen the world to build a Buddhist temple, monks and novices in the meantime, there is no lack of believers to worship the Buddha and make wishes, said: "Buddhism has entered the customs, although it is not a climate, I am afraid that there is a tendency to burn the plains." ”

Taishang Laojun said with a smile: "The Buddha Gate has entered Nanzhan Buzhou without permission and encroached on the preaching place of my Daomen, what does Zhang Tianshi think?"

Zhang Daoling said: "Xiaodao returns to the Heavenly Palace, Yu Ming Jade Emperor, and asks him to make a holy decision." ”

Taishang Laojun said: "You don't have to go, the holy decree has already been issued, you go and see the authenticity." After speaking, a gilded holy decree flew out and was suspended in mid-air.

Zhang Daoling didn't dare to say anything, but when he looked closely, there was no doubt that it was the Holy Decree of the Jade Emperor, and the Holy Decree was careless, so that he would obey the arrangement of the Bodhi Ancestor and return to the Heavenly Palace to report on his work after the matter was over.

Zhang Daoling read the holy decree, and secretly rejoiced that he was not as reckless as the Four Heavenly Kings, and offended the Bodhi Ancestor, otherwise disaster would come, and said: "It's all up to the Ancestor to send." ”

Taishang Laojun nodded slightly, and said to the little Taoist boy who served on the side: "You have been with me for many years, and when I went down to earth, I told you that you have a great opportunity, and now I say that the opportunity has arrived." ”

Xiaodao Tong was overjoyed, kowtowed, and said: "The boy is ignorant, please ask the ancestor to dial." ”

Taishang Laojun said: "You follow me for many years, the three more listen to the Tao, there should be this creation, you go to the mortal world with Zhang Tianshi, adhering to Zhang Tianshi's five buckets of rice, expelling the strength of Buddhism, after the success, there will be indispensable benefits." I know that you are unwilling to be subordinated, and it will not be difficult to rank in the immortal class in the future. ”

"Thank you, thank you. When Xiaodaotong heard this, he cried with joy and kowtowed, it turned out that Lao Jun really knew that he was listening to the sermon in the corner, not only did he not blame himself, but also gave him a great opportunity.

"That's it, that's it, why be pretentious. You go with Zhang Tianshi, if you can completely destroy the power of Buddhism in Nanzhan Buzhou, and give Rulai a warning, the Jade Emperor will not lose your benefits. Then, he turned his head to Zhang Daoling and said, "My boy is stubborn and arrogant, and let him go to reincarnation for a trip, so that he can keep the precepts and practice." ”

"Yes. Zhang Daoling took the order and took the little Taoist boy away, the Taoist boy heard the meaning of reincarnation, and his heart was even more ecstatic, Taishang Laojun had the intention to let himself get rid of the identity of the Taoist child, and when he was ranked in the immortal class in the future, he would not be looked down upon.

Daotong bowed to the old man three times and bowed nine times, and then followed Zhang Daoling out of the cave door and went to the well of reincarnation.

Bixia Yuanjun on one side was anxious, and when he saw that Lao Jun had sent the boy down to earth, Fang said: "Lao Jun, when will the person you are talking about arrive?"

Taishang Laojun said, "People have arrived early, Golden Cicada, this is the sister of the Jade Emperor, the Virgin of Mount Tai Bixia Yuanjun." ”

As soon as Jin Chanzi woke up from his epiphany, he bowed slightly, and Bixia Yuanjun returned the salute.

Taishang Laojun continued, "Bixia Yuanjun wants to go back to Mount Tai, can the golden cicada go along." ”

Jin Chanzi was stunned for a moment and said, "The little monk was originally a troublemaker, I'm afraid he will drag down Yuanjun." ”

Taishang Laojun said: "I naturally know that letting you accompany you is not for you to protect Yuanjun, but for the people behind you." She has nothing to do, and sending Yuanjun is also a pastime. ”

Jin Chanzi thought about it in his heart, knowing that the master was worried about his safety, he must have sent a master to accompany him, and said: "That's the case, ancestor, I will leave first, and then come to visit." Yuanjun, please!"

"So there is a holy monk of Lao. Although Bixia Yuanjun didn't know who was behind the golden cicada, out of trust in Lao Jun, although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask much.

"By the way, the little monk still has something unknown, you send the boy to the lower realm in front of the little monk, and you are not afraid that I will honor the master and kill the boy?"

"Haha!" Taishang Laojun whispered: "Will you?"

Jin Chanzi thought about it seriously, laughed, and said, "No." "Don't say anything more at the moment, say goodbye to Bixia Yuanjun, and find a way to the east.

Taishang Laojun saw that everyone was gone, but Sun Wukong stood under the platform with an inexplicable face, and said sharply: "What kind of Tao have you been cultivating this time?"
