Chapter 24 Qingcheng Mountain

The famous mountains in the world have a word to describe its characteristics, like the danger of Huashan, the strange of Hengshan, the show of Hengshan, the handsome of Songshan, the pride of Taishan, that Qingcheng Mountain is green, the green makes people drunk, and it also makes people fascinated. The mountains are full of green, even in the rock crevices, there are green on the stone paths, in the rock crevices one by one pine trees cling to the stone walls, and between the stone paths there are small grasses dotted among them. Looking at everywhere is not green, there is no time when it is not green, and everywhere you see is verdant, the green is like being washed with water, clean, clear, without leaving a trace of dust and impurities, just like the soul has been washed without a little dust.

The stretch of verdant can't arouse the interest of the people in the Taoist temple on Qingcheng Mountain at this moment, their mood at the moment is like a low valley, frustrated, and lost lingering in people's hearts for a long time can not be dispersed.

In the back hall of the Taoist temple, all four of them have woken up, but no one has spoken, all the people are listening, listening to the shouts and pleading voices of those people outside the mountain gate, and the people outside the mountain gate are praying to enter the Taoist temple and have a peaceful paradise. But the Taoist priest at the door just used all his strength to close the mountain gate tightly, not letting anyone in, the Taoist priest who blocked the door had tears in his eyes, and his heart was tormented like a knife, and the sound of the voice stimulated every Taoist priest, and also dampened their self-esteem and pride that they had been proud of for a long time.

The sound of pleading outside the mountain gate spread into the Taoist temple little by little, and everyone in the Taoist temple did not speak, and not even a single person made a sound, a strange atmosphere. Heavy heart, a group of people with their own thoughts are silently doing their own things, many people have gathered in the open space of the main hall, the nearby mountain people are fleeing here before closing the mountain gate, at this moment most of them have gathered in the square in front of the main hall, chattering and talking, they are eager to know the reason, but no one pays attention to them, all the people of the Taoist temple are walking around in a hurry with a blue face and busy with their own affairs, most of them are avoiding them. There was simply no one to answer their queries. Occasionally, I met a few people who were vague and hesitant. I can't ask why.

The people standing in the square grew more and more frightened, and they spontaneously organized themselves together and began to seek answers. began to stop the Taoist priests one by one. Trying to figure out the answer from their mouths. Gradually, all the people surrounded the Taoist priest in the middle and began to ask questions, and the square was full of people. The chaos has gradually begun to show its head, and all the anger and incomprehension have begun to slowly gather, but there is only one point missing from the explosion.

"Senior brother in charge, it seems that if we don't comfort us, I'm afraid there will be no peace on Qingcheng Mountain. Jingyuan was already awakened by the noisy sound of people outside the square during his rest, he turned over and found that the three elders had also woken up, and the four of them listened quietly for a while, and saw more and more people gathered in the square, and their faces gradually became grim.

"Senior brother, there are more and more people, I'm afraid something is going to happen, do you want to go out and appease you?" Jing Xin said a little worriedly, he looked at more and more people with a melancholy face and asked worriedly.

"Hey, it's all my fault, why should I be separated, if I don't separate, I can support it for a few days, and things won't develop to such a point. Ahem, ahem. Jingfeng said with a little self-reproach, he said in a hurry, and his body immediately became uncomfortable when he was excited, and began to cough.

"Senior brother, I don't blame you, it's also our Qingcheng that can't be avoided because of this. Jingyuan hurriedly stepped forward to help him pat him on the back and comforted him.

"I should have talked to them, maybe it would calm them down. Jing Xuan looked out the window with his hands behind his back, he nodded and said to the three junior disciples.

"Senior brother, I'll go with you. Jing Yuan limped up and helped Jing Xuan walk out the door.

The two walked slowly, this section of the road was not long, but it seemed that it would never be finished, and they hoped that it would never be finished, so it might feel better in their hearts.

Watching the two people slowly walk towards the square, Jing Feng and Jing Xin were full of tears, and they were annoyed.

The two of them slowly walked out of the hall and walked towards the square, and the many people were silent immediately after they walked out, and the whole square became silent, and all the people watched them quietly. The two men walked slowly, slowly, and their faces had become slightly smiling, looking at the people gathered in the square, and all the people looked at them, all the time, until they reached the middle of the crowd.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone came to Qingcheng to take refuge and be treated, which is the trust of our Qingcheng Mountain, thank you here, thank you for your trust. If you have any questions, you can ask me, and I will definitely satisfy you. Jing Xuan said sincerely to everyone, he looked at all the people, and said with kind eyes.

"Daoist Jingxuan, is that the evil ghost Qingcheng Mountain unable to defeat and get rid of it, so he has to close the mountain gate to hide?" A voice roared out loudly, he obviously heard a lot of news, a lot of legends, but he still had to be confirmed before he could settle down.

"Daoist Jing Xuan, we have a home now that we can't go back, we dare not go back, and the people outside really want to get in and can't come in, can you bear to watch everyone live in fear day by day?" A middle-aged man who looked like a Confucian said politely, but the words stabbed Jing Xuan's heart like a sword, which shocked him in his heart.

"Indeed, the people outside cannot hide, and the people inside are also terrified, and if the evil spirit strikes at the door, will there be no place for death outside?" said a young man, excited, and he was indignant, and it seemed that fear was also to blame.

"First of all, let me tell you, the reserves of our Taoist temple can only last for about a month now, and we have stepped up to purchase food, obligations, but the Taoist temple has limited rooms and cannot meet everyone's requirements, so in order to survive, we must make such a decision and close the mountain gate. Jing Xuan said this, paused, and took a breath as he spoke.

"Secondly, we have been attacked by evil spirits, and there is no good way for the time being, so we closed the mountain gate, hoping to find a good way, so I hope that everyone can temporarily obey the arrangement of the Taoist temple before we can find a good way, recuperate with peace of mind, calm down, and get through the difficulties together. Jing Xuan's face showed sincerity, and he said a little pleadingly.

Jing Yuan watched the senior brother in charge speak like this, where he had seen the senior brother in charge so low, his heart was suddenly extremely uncomfortable, he clenched his teeth, his lips were closed, his eyes were wet, and he couldn't help but shed tears on his face. In his heart, the senior brother in charge is a symbol of majesty, a clean breeze and bones, fluttering like a fairy, never contaminated with worldly things, and now he can't help but cry when he speaks like this.

"Everyone disperse, the head elders have spoken like this, we will follow the arrangement of the Taoist Temple, we believe that Daoist Jingxuan, I believe that he will definitely find a way, and our Qingcheng Mountain will definitely return to the past." "Fauber has already walked out, he is old, and his words are very appealing, even if a few are reluctant, but it is not easy to refute anything, and it gradually disperses.

Jing Xuan watched the people gradually leave, he sighed and said to Jing Yuan, "Go and accompany me to the Patriarch Hall in the apse." ”

Jing Yuan wiped away his tears, and helped Jing Xuan to slowly walk towards the Patriarch Hall. One tall and one short, one old and one young, faltering, moving step by step, the breeze dawned, the trees were solemn, the path was crooked, the hall was speechless, everything seemed to be touched by the movement of the old and the young, and they all looked at them wordlessly.

"Ancestors, I'm sorry for you, the rules of Qingcheng for hundreds of years have been destroyed in my hands, if you are angry, just send it to me, come to me. As soon as Jing Xuan entered the door, he knelt down in front of the grandfather's token, whimpering and saying, he was in tears, all the grievances and discomfort were vented in this confession, he seemed to be a child who came home, talking and talking to the tablet of the grandfather.

Jing Yuan looked at the token of the ancestor master, the token shook slightly, as if listening to Jing Xuan's story, there was no sound in the hall, only the sound of the wind, the sound of the token shaking slightly echoed in the hall.

Even if the sky indulges in pride, at that moment when he returns to his parents' arms, he immediately becomes extremely well-behaved, even if the hero is invincible, he will have a bit of a coquettish mentality in front of the predecessor master, Jing Xuan murmured, at that moment, it seems to be repentance, it is confiding, and it is also like venting.

The breeze is silent, the shadows are swaying, the moon is lightless, and there is no daylight. At this moment, the entire hall was already solemn and silent, and silence was better than sound. (To be continued......)
