Chapter 1 Worship the Door
Legend has it that tens of thousands of years ago, the earth is still a chaotic mess, there is a high mountain in the wilderness of the far north, the name is Qingfeng, the mountain is ten thousand feet high, it is the peak of ancient times, but the top of the mountain has no ice and no snow, it is covered by thick shade all the year round, it can be called a wonder. There is an old god living on Qingfeng Mountain, more than 1,000 years old, who has the ability to call the wind and rain and serve the ghosts, and the nearby creatures respect his meaning, and usually call him an 'old mage'. Early in the morning, the old mage was sitting in the cave, and a sound of killing suddenly came from outside the cave. Xiaoyaozi wondered who the monster was doing here, and he had to go to see it, so he got up and walked out of the hole, drove an auspicious cloud, and went straight to the place where the sound came from. After a while, when I reached the place where the voice came from, I held down the cloud head and looked down, but I saw that in an open space below, two figures came and went, and they were quickly and abnormally entangled together, one of them was a man in white, and the other was dressed in gray, both of them were about forty or fifty years old, and they both carried long swords in their hands. There was also a lark hovering in the air, swooping down from time to time to attack the man in gray. Xiaoyaozi couldn't tell which was right and which was wrong, so it was not good to make a rash move, so he had to stand motionless in the clouds and watch their fight. When the fight reached the urgent place, the gray man took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, which was bulging and full of things, and he threw it into the air, and the mouth of the bag opened, and a swarm of bees poured out from the inside, and pounced on the white man's door. The man in white was startled, and jumped backwards, but this was the poisonous plan of the man in gray, he saw that the man in white was deceived, and under great joy, he spit out a rope from his mouth, tied the whole body of the man in white, and said with a grin: "With your Excellency's ability, you dare to fight with others, it is simply beyond your strength." Let you taste the power of my ghost fireworks. With that, the index finger of his left hand stretched out, and a fierce fire gushed out, burning the clothes on the man in white. This fire is not an ordinary fire, it can burn through the flesh and bones, and turn the soul into the whole, which is the most powerful. The fire spread all over the body of the man in white, and even the eyebrows were burning, Xiaoyaozi saw that if he didn't make a move, he was afraid that he would make a fuss, so he waved his palm slightly, and a gust of wind blew, and the flame was extinguished. The gray-clothed man was stunned at first, and then he knew that there was a master beside him who was embarrassed, thinking of this, he couldn't help but be angry, and shouted: "What kind of character is sneaky, don't come out quickly." The voice fell, a flower in front of him, and there was one more person on the ground in front of him, dressed in Confucianism, most of his hair was already gray, but he was an old man with crane hair and a childish face, and he couldn't tell how old he was. Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and said lightly: "I don't know what this little brother has to do with the old way." The gray-clothed man looked up to the sky and said, "What a bull-nosed old man, sure enough, it's you, the Sprinkle family is about to try your skills and see the tricks." As he spoke, he took a step forward, and his palms together pushed forward violently, only to see a flame erupting from the palms of his palms, shaped like a flying dragon, tangled and coiled towards Xiaoyaozi's body. Xiaoyaozi waved his sleeves vigorously, and the two flame flying dragons suddenly flew into the sky, and disappeared in an instant. The gray-clothed man made full strength, but he couldn't help the other party, frightened, turned his head and fled, Xiaoyaozi's left hand and five fingers grabbed and released, and the rope on the white-clothed man's body was immediately untied, and then like a long snake, he flew towards the gray-clothed man, and after a while, he caught up and wrapped around the gray-clothed man's body several times. The gray-clothed man wanted to struggle to get free, but instead of breaking free, he was entangled even tighter, and Xiaoyaozi said lightly: "I see that you are ruthless and vicious, you must be an evil demon, in order to avoid your Excellency from endangering the world in the future, I have to temporarily imprison you, and you have the right to live in my mountain for a while." After saying that, the wind and clouds changed, and a crack about a foot wide opened on the ground, and the man in gray seemed to be enchanted, and his body moved, falling from the cracked gap. Xiaoyaozi recited the spell again, and in a moment the clouds opened and the fog dispersed, the heavens and the earth returned to clarity, and the cracks in the ground disappeared in an instant.
The man in white was seriously injured, Xiaoyaozi took him to his cave to recuperate, about ten days later, has moved freely, this day at noon, Xiaoyaozi walked in from outside the cave, followed by the lark, the man in white saw it, and got up to greet him. Xiaoyaozi smiled: "No need to be polite, how is the injury on your body?" The white-clothed man replied: "Thanks to the old mage's medical skills, after these few days of recuperation, it is no longer in the way." Xiaoyaozi nodded and said, "That's good." The deity has a few things you want to ask, and you have to answer them truthfully. The man in white said solemnly: "If there is any problem, the old master will ask everything, and the disciple must know everything and say everything." Xiaoyaozi said in a deep voice: "What is your surname, where do you live, why did you come to my Qingfeng Mountain, and why did you fight with others again." The man in white replied: "The disciple's surname is Zhan Mingyun, he is a person from the southern country, admiring the old mage's Taoism, specially not far away to come here, to learn the method of immortality and immortality, the magic power of turning over the river and the sea, I don't want to come to the foot of the mountain, but I met the thief blocking the way, I explained the intention, but the traitor reprimanded loudly, we have to turn back quickly, otherwise we will take our lives, we are angry, but we have to fight with him, as for the details inside, I really don't know anything." I also hope that the old master will look at the disciple's infatuation and include me in the door wall. Xiaoyaozi said to himself: "No wonder I haven't seen anyone go up the mountain these days, it turns out that this guy is making a hindrance." After a pause, he said: "Learning the Tao is not an easy task, it needs to go through a lot of hardships, can you bear it?" The man in white hesitated for a moment, but still said resolutely: "The disciple has made up his mind, no matter how difficult and dangerous it is, he will not change his original intention. Xiaoyaozi twisted his beard and said, "Okay, since this is the case, then the deity will accept you." From now on, you are the sixth generation disciple of my Xiaoyaomen, and my Daomen pays attention to compassion, and you can't hurt people's lives with spells unless you have to, let alone bully the weak and show off your skills. Zhan Yun agreed one by one, and finally said: "Zhan Yun still has one thing, ask the master to agree." The disciple had wandered in the East China Sea for a long time, thanks to the recommendation of the lark, he reluctantly came here, although this little lark is an animal, but it is affectionate and righteous, it is also for learning the Tao, I hope the old master can accept it together. Xiaoyaozi turned to the lark and said, "Little lark, do you have any intention of being my apprentice?" The lark can understand human speech, but can't speak yet, and at the moment it was chattering there for a while, Xiaoyaozi saw that it was happy, and knew that it was very willing, and said: "All animals cultivating immortals and practicing the Tao, you must first transform into a human form, and have a psychic body, before you can study higher exercises, and the difficulty in the middle is one more layer than ordinary people." For the teacher, I will give the word 'Xianyuan' this time, as your vulgar name, and hope to enter the Tao as soon as possible in the future, so as not to live up to the sustenance of the teacher. The lark spread its wings, flew to the ground in the middle with a snort, and kowtowed to Zhanyun to worship the teacher. Since then, Zhanyun and Xianyuan have lived in the cave, they follow Xiaoyaozi's instructions, practice qi and nourish the spirit, about a hundred years, have made a lot of breakthroughs in Taoism, Zhanyun's 'mountain splitting palm method' and 'fire-breathing technique' have been practiced to seven or eight percent of the fire, and Xianyuan has been cultivated hard and has now become half a female body.
