Chapter 44: Ancestor of Xianyuan Mountain
But Gao Lan was a little embarrassed at this time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because although she has cultivated mana, she does not know how to control the clouds and mist, and she can only ride the wind and rise from the ground. Now that there is a cliff under her feet, how could she really step on the clouds with this crane rider? The crane rider seemed to see Gao Lan's thoughts, and couldn't help laughing, and actually got off the crane, and her feet floated on the clouds and mist of the broken dust cliff.
"Don't be afraid, there is a poor way here. ”
Gao Lan looked at the eager eyes of those Fan Xiu and his companions behind him, thinking that he couldn't lose the face of the scattered immortals. With a horizontal heart, she also strode down on the clouds! This fall, her heart couldn't help but feel steady, and at the same time, she also showed a strange look to this Taoist master. The Taoist chief also smiled mysteriously, and then said to several other Taoist priests: "You entertain these monks, and I will take this destined person to meet the ancestor first." ”
"Yes!" The rest of the Daoists heard this, and immediately turned back and flew over, leading hundreds of monks including the Gray Daoist into the platform. Gao Lan, on the other hand, used his mana and followed the Taoist to step on the clouds and mist, driving towards the opposite shore of the Broken Dust Cliff. At this time, she also felt sorry for the people of Chonghui Dao in her heart, because Gao Lan was able to ride the wind here, which had already explained a fact.
That is, under the clouds and mist of the Broken Dust Cliff, it is only four or five zhang deep.
But the secret of heaven cannot be leaked, and Gao Lan also understands that if he does not have mana, he will definitely not dare to jump on this cloud.
"Do you think that this mechanism of the ancestor is very mysterious?" the Taoist suddenly opened his mouth as he walked. Gao Lan said: "Yes, if you are really just a mortal cultivator, but you can have the heart to walk through this broken dust cliff, then you are the person who can really be favored by the ancestor." When the Taoist chief heard this, he smiled and said, "It's not that there are no such characters. About 600 years ago, a mortal passed through this cliff of dust, which was greatly appreciated by the ancestors. ”
"Is there really such a character?" Gao Lan couldn't help but light up when he heard this. The Taoist chief said: "It's a pity that this person later made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace and violated the rules of heaven, and now he has been able to overcome the disaster and begin to seek the right result...... Girl, you have this fairy fate, but you have to cultivate yourself, don't be reckless!" Gao Lan couldn't help but jump heavily in her heart when she heard this, because she seemed to know what kind of character she was going to meet.
"My God! Could it be that this ancestor who sees the head of the dragon and does not see the tail is actually ......?"
The Taoist took Gao Lan for about a whole afternoon, and after crossing the Broken Dust Cliff, there was also a distance of four or five thousand miles. The entire Broken Dust Cliff is like a sea of clouds composed of colorful clouds, Gao Lan also knows that there is only one road under her feet, if it weren't for the Taoist to take her, maybe a misstep would fall into the abyss. At the end of the Broken Dust Cliff, there was a mountain peak, and when Gao Lan saw this peak, he suddenly had an ancient, Cangsang feeling.
Gao Lan followed the Taoist chief up the mountainside, and suddenly his feet were down-to-earth and his heart was stable.
From the mountainside to the top of the mountain, there is a bluestone paved staircase, and at the end of the staircase is an old Taoist temple. I can't see the scene in the Taoist temple here, but the Taoist beside Gao Lan bowed his head and said, "Master, there are people who are destined to pass through the Broken Dust Cliff this year. After he finished speaking, an ethereal voice came from the door of the Taoist temple: "It's a blessing that someone can come here." ”
"What is your surname, where are you, and why did you come to my Xianyuan Mountain?"
Gao Lan hurriedly knelt down and bowed down, and said to the Taoist temple: "Patriarch, the disciple's surname is Gao Minglan, he is a person from Wusi Tibet, he once worshiped Wuchao Zen Master as his teacher, and respected the teacher's order to protect the Tang Dynasty monks in the east to go to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures. Because I met the Taoist friends of Wuzhuang Temple on the road, I learned that the fairy mountain was preaching, so I dared to seek the fairy fate and hope that the ancestor would be fulfilled!"
"Hahahaha, you're honest. The old man's hearty laughter came from the Taoist temple, "You can also be regarded as seeking Taoism with art, even if you have fate, I will not be stingy." Anyone who comes to my Xianyuan Mountain, I will give them an elixir to help them become immortals! I have a longevity pill, and a person can live to be 12,960 years old if he eats one pill. There is also the Dharma Source Pill, which can condense mana and soar into immortals after eating! There is also a supernatural human pill, after which people can hold the pill and return to the blood, and achieve supernatural powers. ”
"You are already a member of the gods, if you eat the golden pill again, you will definitely improve your skills and increase your longevity. Would you like to have these three gold pills?"
"Patriarch ......" Gao Lan was also thrilled when he heard the golden pill that the ancestor wanted to give. Increasing longevity and supernatural mana, even immortals are also dreamed of. But biting his lip, Gao Lan still said what was in his heart: "The ancestor is generous, and the disciple does not dare to refuse." It's just that the disciple goes into the mountains to seek the Tao, and what he wants to learn most is an immortal art, the so-called teaching people to fish, it is better to teach people to fish. ”
"You girl, you actually pick and choose?" the patriarch sneered, making the Taoist beside Gao Lan shudder. "My three golden pills, where to put them is not a treasure, you still can't look down on it? Well, since you want to learn an immortal art, according to my rules here, you have to do three things. Let's talk about it first, what kind of immortal arts do you want to learn? After that, I'll arrange a suitable errand for you. ”
Gao Lan was not greedy, and only said: "The disciple is practicing Buddhism, although he has a little mana, but he can't soar the clouds. Ask the patriarch to teach my disciple a cloud spell that can be used for me to practice. Hearing this, the patriarch pondered slightly, and then said, "The exercises you practice are one of the original Dharmas between heaven and earth, but the deeper the Dharma, the more difficult it is to practice......
The patriarch paused for a moment and suddenly said, "...... You do these three things first, and I will definitely teach you a cloud spell that suits you!"
"Thank you, Patriarch!" Gao Lan couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard this, "May I ask Patriarch, what three things do you want your disciples to do?"
The patriarch said, "You remember. The first thing is that you go home and visit your parents and say that you are practicing outside to give them peace of mind, which is the first thing. The second thing is that there is a flower bear spirit outside of this Xianyuan Mountain, and you can eradicate this monster! The third thing is that you have to open an altar in my Xianyuan Mountain to preach, and tell those ordinary cultivators and enlightened those who have cultivated and enlightened. If these three things are done well, I will pass on your cloud technique. ”
"This ......" Gao Lan was a little embarrassed when she heard this. The first thing can still be done, but that flower bear essence is too powerful, Gao Lan has no way to take it, but he can't get rid of it. Gao Lan doesn't have such a thick skin, and she is not a Buddhist ancestor, nor is she a Sanqing and Four Imperial Zhenyuan Immortals, who ascends to the high altar to preach to the monks here, and still doesn't let people down?
The more Gao Lan thought about it, the more she felt bottomless.
The patriarch asked again: "Why, can't you do it?" or do you think you can do it, but you don't want to do it?" The patriarch said, the door of the Taoist temple suddenly opened, and then an old man wearing a plain Taoist robe, white hair like frost, but his face was like a crown of jade, appeared in front of the mountainside. When Gao Lan saw this image, the whole person froze instantly. Because of this image, it is on par with Wuchao Zen Master in terms of bearing.
This is the Dharma of Dao Ancestor!
The ancestor smiled slightly, and echoed his ears: "These three things are the threshold of your self-cultivation and cultivation. Taoism has a cloud: it is easy to respect filial piety, it is difficult to love filial piety, and it is not possible to do it for the sake of heaven and ignore human ethics. Second, if you practice the Dharma, you will inevitably rise to the challenge, and if you seek immortal magic and then subdue demons, why should you go through this calamity? Third, Confucianism pursues the principle of becoming a teacher in one word, and not only you, but also other monks who are not as good as yours may also be able to give a lecture on the altar at my place!"
"The three laws of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are one, and only then is the avenue of heaven and earth. If you don't follow it, there is no hope for mana......"
Gao Lan pursed her lips and wanted to refute it, but she still swallowed her words.
As he spoke, the ancestor slowly put his hands behind his back and said, "The cloud technique I want to teach you is just to help you cross the threshold of seeking the Dao, and it is far from being as simple as driving the clouds and inviting you to travel. The road of the world, but seek eternal life. Three disasters and nine difficulties, the law of Confucianism and Taoism is to avoid, and the law of Buddhism is to cross. When you practice the Origin of Buddhism, you should first know what it is, otherwise the catastrophe of heaven and earth will be the day you die. ”
"Avoid the three disasters and nine difficulties, and overcome the three disasters and nine difficulties...... Is there a difference?"
Gao Lan listened to the ancestor's words, and really couldn't figure out the difference for a while. But finally came to Xianyuan Mountain, she is absolutely unwilling to go back empty-handed, can't she beat the flower bear spirit, won't she find someone to help? It's a big deal to call Sun Wukong back...... Because she really can't find the Tengyun spell that she can learn, now the ancestor has a spell that is suitable for her, and she has to learn it no matter what.
"The disciple is willing to do these three things. ”
The patriarch listened to her answer and said with a smile: "It's an ambitious offspring." Quanshan, take her down first!" After the patriarch finished speaking, the illusion disappeared, and the crane rider hurriedly agreed: "Yes!" wiped the sweat on his head and made a gesture to Gao Lan, who also ran down after him. Along the way, the expression on the face of the Taoist was not relaxed.
This is similar to the way he just traveled with a crane.
"You little hairy girl, you are still bargaining with the ancestor. But the patriarch is quite tolerant of you, and he actually talked to you so much!"
"Hehe, maybe it's because I'm pretty. When Gao Lan heard this, she looked a little proud. In her opinion, no matter where she is, appearance is the first element.
The people of Quanshan Dao were speechless.
Gao Lan rested in a quiet meditation room at the bottom of the mountain for a night, and the next morning, the Quanshan Taoist sent her back to the world from the back mountain. Gao Lan now has to follow the first thing of the patriarch, and go home to visit his parents first. This Xianyuan Mountain is in the south of Xiniuhe Prefecture, and it is about tens of thousands of miles away from the Wusi Tibetan Kingdom. However, as long as Gao Lan recognizes the direction and concentrates on hurrying now, he will not feel too far away.
For several days, Gao Lan headed northeast. She also felt a little excited in her heart.
Early that morning, Gao Lan hurried east again, but was blocked by a large river. This big river is extremely wide, there is no end in sight, and the water is turbulent, which is vaguely familiar. Gao Lan thought about it and couldn't help but rejoice in his heart: "This is the quicksand river! I have traveled thousands of miles a day now, and I have actually walked all the way back to the quicksand river from Xianyuan Mountain? After crossing this river, it is Nanzhan Buzhou." ”
