Chapter 3 The Path

Now that the big event has been decided, the seven veins real people retreated and went back to the peak. Only Ziyang Zhenren remained.

As soon as everyone left, Ziwei Zhenren's eyes were tightly closed, and his face was tired. Ziyang Zhenren also had a solemn face, looking preoccupied. The two real people sat in the middle of the hall in silence.

For a while, inside the hall, it was as quiet as the ancient.

At this time, thinking that it was already considered mature, Ziyang Zhenren opened his mouth: "Ziwei is in charge, Ji Ruochen enters my door wall, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!"

Ziwei Zhenren waved his hand and said, "Senior Brother Ziyang, don't push it anymore! You are the oldest and the most virtuous among the Eight Pulse True People, and only by letting him enter your door wall can the seven real people stop their disputes." After finishing speaking, he let out a long sigh, and continued: "Alas, I didn't expect that the battle within my Daode Sect is still so fierce, it was like this thirty years ago, and it is still like this when I get out of the customs thirty years later. If this goes on like this, how can you get it?"

Hearing this, Ziyang Zhenren looked ashamed and said, "Since the time when I was in charge of the retreat, I was appointed to act as the agent. Thirty years have not been able to make my sect improve slightly, and they all complain that I am not supervising well and have the trust of being in charge. ”

Ziwei Zhenren said hesitantly: "How can you be blamed for this? Which of the other seven veins is not thinking of the Glory Gate and suppressing other branches? They are not what I left over after the completion of my meritorious deeds, how can you suppress them? If they are not obsessed with this, with their qualifications, how can they stop cultivating like this?"

There was silence in the hall again, and the atmosphere was much more depressing than before. The battle for the gateway within the Daode Sect began thousands of years ago, and it can be said that it has been deep in the bone marrow for many years. How can it be possible to turn the situation around just by relying on the work of a few people for decades.

Ziyang Zhenren pondered for a moment and said: "Sect Leader's exit this time is a major event of my entire righteous path, with you presiding over the overall situation, and receiving the immortals in hand, my Daode Sect leader is on the right path, proud of the group, that is just around the corner." ”

"The leader is right, proud of the group?" Ziwei Zhenren snorted and said, "What is the significance of this to my Daode Sect? Could it be that the fight between the seven real people can be resolved in this way?" Fortunately, although the seven real people have been fighting for decades, there is still a limit to what they can do, and they have not crossed the rules and ruined the reputation of my Daode Sect. Then, Ziwei Zhenren's tone sank, and he said: "Senior Brother Ziyang, this time I have broken through the heavens and grabbed the Immortal Hui Sect, and I have already mistaken my cultivation a lot, and I will have to go back to retreat in a few days, and the affairs of the sect will have to be taken care of by Senior Brother again." ”

Ziyang Zhenren originally thought that when the sect was in charge, he would have to stay for a while and take care of the affairs of the sect. With the prestige of Ziwei Zhenren, some of the long-standing grievances of the Seven Veins may be resolved. It's just that he never expected that the head of the sect would have to go back into retreat a few days later. In just a few days, how could he explain the affairs of the sect for thirty years? Yiziyang Zhenren was taken aback, and said hurriedly: "But ......"

Ziwei Zhenren raised his hand slightly, and didn't let Ziyang continue, he paced back and forth in the hall several times, his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of doubt, as if there was something difficult to decide. After a while, Ziwei Zhenren stopped, stood in front of Ziyang Zhenren, and said slowly: "I have a plan at the right time, but I can't figure out Ji Ruochen's future fortunes. Although he is the reincarnation of an immortal, he has become a mortal person, and I have never been able to understand the reason of his life. In addition, this time, there are many sects that have broken through the heavens and come to rob people, which is also very strange. It stands to reason that with the subtle Taoism of Mr. Shushi and the Seven Holy Mountains, how can it be possible to predict the heavenly opportunity?"

Ziyang Zhenren didn't think much when he heard this, but said: "The real person in charge of the sect is too worried! If it weren't for you who had explored the Heavenly Opportunity half a day earlier, how could we have seized the opportunity and been able to be fully prepared to suppress the people of the other factions in one fell swoop? The gap in this supernatural power is not small!"

Ziwei Zhenren shook his head, his face turned pale, and he solemnly advised: "No matter what, senior brother, you must be careful in the future and protect Ji Ruochen." Now that Ji Ruochen's identity has been broken, no matter the righteous and evil sects, since he knows that he is an immortal, he will come to rob people by unscrupulous means, maybe some old monsters who have not been born for a hundred years will also intervene, and I am afraid that in the future, I am afraid that the mountain gate of my moral sect will continue to be right and wrong. Hey, it's just that my Daodaozong has a three-thousand-year-old inheritance, how can it be destroyed by our hands? Senior Brother Ziyang, I look at the West Mountain from afar, and there is a bloody light hidden in the clouds, I'm afraid that my Daodaozong will probably have a difficult situation to deal with in the future. At that time, you called me out. I will fight, but I don't want to ascend to the fruit of cultivating immortals, but also annihilate the enemy!"

Ziyang Zhenren hurriedly responded.

Ziwei Zhenren pondered for a moment, suddenly sighed, his face was tired, and said: "Actually, the heavens are unpredictable, I am just a leopard in the tube, only see a glimpse, I think that I have the heavens, through the yin and yang, know the past and the future, hey, really arrogant! If I can really know the future, why is this Daodaozong in such a mess, I am helpless?"

After saying that, Ziwei Zhenren looked stunned, waved his hand, and went into the apse.

The next day, the sky was bright, and Ji Ruochen was led by a small Taoist servant to the Taichang Palace where the Ziyang real person lived. For him, every step and every scene at this moment has a feeling of falling asleep. Look at the Taichang Palace is magnificent, borrowing the cover of the mountains and forests, such as Penglai Wonderland, like Qionglou Yuyu, it is no exaggeration to call it a fairyland.

If Ji Ruochen was still in the Dragon Gate Inn, even if he was killed, he would not have thought that there would be such a magnificent place in the world. At this time, of course, he already knew that these real monks were not real immortals, but based on the theory of divine generalism alone, the immortals he could think of were nothing more than that.

The only fly in the ointment is that the food in the Taishang Daode Palace tastes worse, in terms of a word he has newly learned, that is, it is full of craftsmanship and does not see the spiritual heart. If you compare this rice with the meat bun and bone broth of the shopkeeper's wife, it is really the difference between heaven and earth.

The appearance of the Taichang Palace of Ziyang Dao is majestic, and when you enter it, you feel refined and vulgar, elegant and dusty, and not luxurious. The courtyard is planted with purple bamboo palms, and there are several plantains, the courtyard is gentle and warm, the water is soft and rippling, and the scenery of the South China Sea is a faction. Ji Ruochen entered the main hall and saw that the person in the middle was a kind old man, who was Ziyang Zhenren. He was so obedient that he immediately bowed his head and bowed down, calling himself a god.

Ziyang Zhenren smiled, calmly received his eight rings, and then did not move, and there was a soft and strong force to hold Ji Ruochen up and stand in front of him.

Ziyang Zhenren looked Ji Ruochen up and down, and said slowly: "Since you are willing to list my moral sect wall, then you naturally have to follow my door rules." The leader of the Daode sect is righteous, and he puts righteousness and sincerity first. Let me ask you, how many evil things have you done in the past few years?"

Ji Ruochen was startled, immediately knelt down, and replied: "The villain has been wandering all the way since he can remember, until he arrived at the Longmen Inn outside the gate, and then he was taken in by the shopkeeper. Over the years, the villain has always remembered the kindness of the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper's wife, and has done his best to do things, and has never disobeyed the elder. ”

Ziyang Zhenren stared at Ji Ruochen and snorted heavily in his nose. This heavy snort was like a thunderclap, and it burst into Ji Ruochen's ears, making him dizzy. Ji Ruochen panicked in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "Real person, no, immortal! On the morning when you came to the Dragon Gate Inn, I really couldn't resist the temptation, moved greedily, and stole three freshly released buns and a bowl of bone broth. It's not because I'm hungry, it's just that the things made by Madame are so delicious. Other than that, there is no more disobedience to the elders, no more!"

In Ji Ruochen's heart, slaughtering fat sheep with a stuffy stick is like sweeping the floor with water, which is a must-do homework every day, and he doesn't realize that there is anything hurtful and unreasonable.

Rao is Ziyang Zhenren's profound deeds, and he was also stunned after listening to it. After being silent for half a pillar of incense, Ziyang Zhenzhen exhaled a breath of turbidity. He smiled bitterly, and before he could spit out a word of the large sermon he had prepared, he had forgotten it completely. He had no choice but to order: "Yesterday, Daoist Yunfeng has already given you and my moral sect rules and sect rules, you have memorized it by heart in the past two days." Then the head of the Cloud Wind Dao will teach you the rules and etiquette of morning and evening homework, incense and worship. After I first meet with the Seven Veins True Person to agree on your homework schedule, I will personally teach you and me the introductory lesson of the Tao Te Sect. Now the affairs of the sect are busy, this apprenticeship ceremony will be postponed and discussed, just now I received your eight heads, even if I am in charge of teaching Ziwei Zhenren to accept you as an apprentice. In the future, don't let the gods and gods scream, which will make people laugh at it. ”

Ji Ruochen nodded in response, but still stood still, and said in a whisper for a long time: "Master, the disciple has one more matter...... Daoist Yunfeng did give me three moral rules, but ...... But out of ten words in the book, the disciples still can't recognize four or five ......"

Ziyang Zhenren pondered for a moment and said, "You didn't know any words, but I ignored this." In the future, you can take an hour every night to learn to read and read with the newly selected children from all over the country this year. Go down, and everything will be arranged for you by the Cloud Wind Chief. ”

Ji Ruochen responded, and followed the small road servant to the outside. As soon as he walked to the gate of the hall, Ziyang Zhenren called him again. Ziyang took out the small bluestone from his arms, handed it to Ji Ruochen, and then said: "Ruochen, you are eighteen years old in the world, and it is too late to enter my avenue at this time. But God rewards hard work, as long as you are willing to work hard, it is never too late to seek the Tao at any time. It's just that when you start cultivating when you become an adult, you will definitely suffer more than others, and this is also the meaning of God to temper your success, and you must not resentment or give up on yourself because of this. No matter what happens in the future, you must always remember that my Tao Te Sect is the right way in the world, and you must have a reason for everything, remember?"

Ji Ruochen nodded vigorously. Ziyang Zhenren took out a green jade medicine bottle from his bosom again, handed it to him, and said, "This bottle of Divine Cultivation Pill can relieve fatigue and sleepiness, you can take one pill a day, it may be of some use to you." ”

Ji Ruochen thanked Ziyang Zhenren, and was led out by the small roadmaid. Although he is not yet fifteen years old, since Ziyang Zhenren said that he is eighteen, then he is eighteen, he will not be stupid enough to argue or anything, but in the end, Ziyang Zhenren told him a few words, he knew that Zhenren must have intentions, and naturally engraved every word in his heart.

After Ji Ruochen left, Yun Fengdao, who had been standing behind Ziyang Zhenren and was silent, said: "Ziyang Zhenren, Ji Ruochen is eighteen years old, but the oldest disciple who participates in the introductory course with him will not be more than twelve years old, and he is afraid that he will be a little embarrassed at that time." Moreover, you arranged for him to study in the Taishang Daode Palace, where there are many arrogant children of the Seven Veins. They are usually a little pampered and arrogant when they are fine, but now they see that Ruochen is middle-class, but they are so valued by all real people, and they don't know that he is an immortal, I am afraid that there will be more trouble. So isn't that inappropriate?"

Ziyang Zhenren glanced at Yun Feng, stroked his beard and smiled: "This is nothing more than a small test. Ruochen has worked in a black shop selling human meat buns for six years, and I don't know how many people he has harmed, do you think he will not be able to deal with those disciples of the Seven Veins who are ignorant of the world and arrogant? The only thing that worries about the teacher is that he is afraid that he will be lost in the sound of this fancy world, and he will no longer be willing to work hard. At that time, even if he had the quality of an immortal, how could it be possible to cultivate merit and complete his merits?"

Yunfeng Dao Leader immediately said: "The real person is wise. ”
