Taoist chanting

Zhang Wenfeng is dressed in a solemn yellow Taoist robe, wearing a crown on his head, with a solemn expression, holding incense in his hand, and reciting the "Golden Book of Jidu" in his mouth. .

Give precepts and take refuge, and issue crowns and scarves.

After a whole set of complicated ceremonies, the guests sent their blessings.

At noon, there is a vegetarian feast for guests, and everyone is treated equally with a small bowl of Lingmi porridge.

After sending away the guests and the family members of the newly promoted disciples, the head of the mountain changed the ID badges for the sixteen disciples again and assigned them a residence yard.

In the early winter of October, the cold wind was bleak, and a group of male and female Taoist priests walked on the mountain with their wide sleeves fluttering. Under the leadership of the mountain leader, they patrolled the entire site of the Xianling Temple, which had been expanded several times. go.

Sitting on the back of the donkey is Hu Qiang'er, who loves to be lively. On the left shoulder of Hu Qiang'er, there are two green weavers who are much thicker and no longer hiding from others.

The new disciples are all gods and handsome, full of spirits.

In the tea room, Yun Qiuhe showed Yue Anyan a few treasures she found at the street shops in Fangshi, Zhoucheng, including antique jade combs, purple gold hairpins, silver rosary strings, etc., all of which were old objects.

The result of showing off was that Yue Anyan snatched two of them, causing quite a commotion.

Yun Qiuhe babbled about "meeting people unkindly, being careless in making friends", she was willing to share it with Yue Anyan if she could bring it out.

Zhang Wenfeng suddenly looked outside the door, and the little fox demon in a long pink dress appeared with a happy face, called "Guardian", greeted the two daughters of Yue Anyan, and jumped to avoid Yun Qiuhe's outstretched claws to pinch his face , grinning and announced the good news: "My sister has advanced to the third rank, so I don't have to stay on the mountain all day long."

She has the feeling of watching the moonlight when the clouds bloom. It is harder than her sister's retreat to stay on the mountain.

Fortunately, my sister succeeded in breaking through, and there is some hope of regaining the ancestral land.

Otherwise, I don't know what year and month it will be when she is expected to take up the heavy responsibility?

Zhang Wenfeng and the others sent congratulations one after another. The little fox demon hadn't come to play for a long time, and it was a burst of excitement when he learned that the temple master had been promoted four months ago.

I heard that two rare Green Weaver Girls have been added to the Daoguan site. Where the little fox demon can sit still, he gets up and flies out, unwilling to wait for a moment, followed by the childlike Yun Qiuhe.

The heart of a child is naturally cute.

Chapter 405 You might as well take a step back and think

Walking along the reef pillars and deep portals, you walk into the brand new Water Mansion.

Yue Anyan almost thought he had gone to the wrong place, the semi-circular arc-shaped black zenith was inlaid with scattered gemstones, and white luminous stones were dotted in between, illuminating the three times enlarged water palace passage below as bright as day, and the light and color changed.

A few water spirit plants floated on the aura of water flowing close to the ground, swaying gracefully.

"Master, look at what you are not satisfied with, and I will correct it."

Yang Shuilan shed her condescending demeanor of a water god, and regained the gentleness and weakness of a fisherwoman next door. With a shy smile on her face, she stepped forward on the path paved with fine water jade, bowing and saluting as usual.

In any case, there is an extra sense of generosity and unrestrained calmness.

"It's great, it's chic, and it doesn't need a lot of editing."

Yue Anyan stretched out his hand, looked around, and said with a smile, "You have gathered the water around you? The aura and water vapor in this place are much richer."

About 30 days ago, Yang Shuilan sent a message to her, saying that she would help her renovate the Water God Residual Mansion, and asked her to come back in a few days.

"I guided the water transport for the nearby thirty miles. I dare not make any big noises. Just treat it as a long stream of water. Master, don't worry. The rivers in the Shuiqiuntan water area are complicated and will not attract the attention of Master An Chaoyu."

Yang Shuilan stretched out her hand to ask, walked through the passage of the Shuifu, stepped through a door in the darkness, and the inside suddenly opened up.

There are pavilions and pavilions carved with reefs, small bridges and flowing water, and water flower gardens dotted around.

The aura condenses and floats on the ground, and the water and air birds rise.

Yue Anyan admired it for a moment, and said: "You have a heart, and you can come and live if you have time in the future."

Yang Shuilan was half a shoulder behind as usual, and said with a smile: "Time is a bit rushed, and the intact part of this place is limited, and it can only be restored to this size. It is a little rough, and you will live there, Master. You keep the magic weapon, after three to five years, this place can become a small blessed place, I have reserved a cave for myself on the side, and I can live in it when I come."

Walking to an octagonal well that was emitting white gas, he said: "I found a trickle of 'cold water' and collected it in the well. Master, you can use it to temper your soul and body."

Yue Anyan stretched out his hand to feel the cold air in the well, and fell silent for a while: "Have you made arrangements for your father and brother in Baiyun County?"

From Yang Shuilan's meticulous arrangements, she knew that this cheap apprentice was leaving.

I feel very sad in my heart, I don't know when we will meet again after leaving?

Gods without incense and no territory are like duckweed without roots. How difficult is it to go out and wander?

What's more, there is still the dragon's lake and tiger's lair of the Great Liang Wu Clan to break through.

It is hard to say whether we will meet again.

"Try to satisfy their wishes, and buy them a shop on the pier. Wealthy and rich, we can live for a long time without worrying about food and clothing."

Yang Shuilan's face turned pale, as if she was talking about other people's affairs.

She used some methods to get rid of her father and brother's irresistible greed, and made a complete break with this world.

No more worries, alone, it's time for her to go on the road.

Accompanying the master to walk through the entire water mansion, some of the water formations were specially arranged, and after more than a quarter of an hour, the two walked to the entrance of the passage.

Yang Shuilan bowed down Yingying, she was as weak as a white lotus blooming in the water, so beautiful that people feel pity.

"Master, take care of yourself on the way to immortality! Shuilan is gone."

"Shui Lan, take care of yourself. If you encounter difficulties, you might as well take a step back and think about it. This water mansion is also your home."

Yue Anyan watched the delicate woman walk into the darkness without turning her head, and disappeared.

She felt lost and couldn't recover for a long time.

Qingzheng Bieyuan Tea Room.

The second brother held the brochure and said: "Among all the disciples, Wei Jingjie is the oldest and has the highest cultivation level. He took two female disciples, Yan Jing and Shang Qingyun, as a group to go to Xiahe County in the south to assess and recruit apprentices. Tie Jin Lin worked calmly and took Shi Nanguan and Zhang Xuandong to Qianyan County in the west. An Beiyuan took Shui Qingru and He He to Bafang County in the southwest. Zhuang Mi took Shen Shan and Cui Zhongxian to recruit apprentices within the county. One month is regarded as an outing experience.

The other disciples who broke the mirror by taking medicine powder need time to steadily improve their cultivation, so they all practice daily in the Taoist temple and help me with some trivial matters within their ability.

Lu Zijin is stuck in a bottleneck, and he will not be able to advance to the second level of consummation for a while. It is happy and not happy. Send it out to go on a tour to ensure the safety of the disciples in each group. I will go to every county and visit the local Daolu branch. Lord, no loss in etiquette. "

Zhang Wenfeng thought for a while after listening, and said: "Try to avoid the villages within ten miles of the local Taoist temple. A strong dragon will not overwhelm a local snake, and we will not miss that bite, so we will leave a good reputation."

"Understood, I will delineate the scope with them one by one. All apprentices who pass the assessment, set a time, and gather the apprentices in each county. Yue Anyan and I will go for a second assessment, select the best from the best, and determine One hundred apprenticeships will be sent by the parents after the Lantern Festival next year, and we will pay for the transportation and transportation expenses."

The second senior brother has been the head of the mountain for three years, thinking about things very carefully, and then said: "Between the west courtyard and the north courtyard of Qingzheng Bieyuan, the dormitories need to be expanded, and at least 150 apprentices should be able to live. I will arrange for Lao Wei to hurry up and find Craftsman, we also need to expand the practice room and quiet room, more than two months is enough time."

All in all, the two discussed for half the morning.

Talking about good things, the second senior brother was so busy that he called the disciples to the training hall to discuss matters.

Zhang Wenfeng walked out of the teahouse, walked to the Jiugong Pile standing in the northwest corner of the field, and taught him a few words to Lezi to practice Jiugongquan. He devoted himself to teaching this cousin who was particularly able to endure hardships.

With the experience of teaching Shui Qingru in front, Lezi should be able to avoid some detours.

The youngest son of Wei Xingde's family, Wei Jingcheng, has no aptitude for cultivating Taoism, and has learned a lot of boxing, foot and sword skills. He has not been able to cultivate the sense of qi for three years. Now he works with his father in the Taoist temple, and the boy is happy and relaxed, smiling all day long .

Each has its own way of living, and we should not force ourselves to endure hardships and cultivate the Tao.

Walking down the dwarf mountain, to the barren mountains in the northeast, Tu Kun laid the foundation for the complex arrangement of pillars.

Good guy, there are many people who help in the field and watch the excitement.

The little fox demon has a green weaver spirit on each shoulder, flying with Hu Qiang'er on the sword, running up and down the hills with the donkey, chattering non-stop, she is the happiest, while the mountain badger works hard The pits were filled with soil, and there was no clean place all over.

Seeing the appearance of the temple master, the little fox demon smiled and said hello, she grabbed the green weaver girl Jingmei and refused to let them go back to the temple master's shoulder, promised a bunch of benefits, and coaxed the green weaver girl Jingmei to play on her shoulder.

Standing with Tu Kun and talking for a while, asking about the progress of the big formation, Zhang Wenfeng couldn't help with the complicated big formation that Tu Kun had arranged. Kun's advice was integrated into the large formation of the mountain gate he arranged, so that the two had a master and a pair, greatly enhancing the power of the Qiankunmuxing Yinyang Eight Diagrams formation.

This large area of ​​mountain roots gradually merged into one.

Most of the difficulty and complexity were borne by Tu Kun, who was only responsible for embedding the array.

As he was speaking, he suddenly felt a vibration coming from the ground, which seemed very far away.

"The ground dragon turns over, it is in the northwest."

Tu Kun felt it for a while, and said: "About five hundred miles away, there is a lot of movement, but I don't know if it is man-made or a natural disaster?"

Chapter 406

Hearing that the disaster in the northwest was five hundred miles away from here, the heartless little fox demons didn't take it seriously, roaring and flying towards the east of the mountain, leaving the mountain badger looking pitifully out of the pit wait and see.

Those heartless people, including the donkey father, only care about themselves and don't play nearby, so he feels at ease when he hears it.

Tu Kun knocked a chestnut away: "Hurry up and work, don't think about being lazy and playful all day long."

The big earth formation he arranged, all the pits in the foundation of the formation must be connected with each other through the air veins in the ground, and they are densely packed to form a grid of hooks. Finally, it is easy to cultivate a little guy with a talent for drilling holes. Of course, the dirty work is tiring. It is the mountain badger who does his job.

Do you still want him to dig holes in the ground himself?Is that plausible?

The mountain badger let out a groan, and continued digging the seemingly endless pit, feeling as cool as the weather outside.

Zhang Wenfeng roughly compared it with the Kanyu map of Nanjiang Prefecture in his heart. The place where the accident happened should be in Pinggang County, which is the northwest border of Nanjiang Prefecture and Qizhou, not too far from Xuanyun Temple.

Xie Moring, who was acquainted with him, had a conversation with him about his future appointment on behalf of Ducheng Daolu Academy.

He said that he has no plans to become an official at present, like Feng Qiyue of Nine Crane Palace, who guards his own one-acre three-point land, watching over the development of the sect, and has not joined the WTO for more than three years.

Of course, according to the rules, he still accepted the Keqing protector of Nanjiang Prefecture.

If you really want to serve at that time, there is a set of procedures to follow. You must go to other states to serve as an official, and you cannot stay in this state.

After listening to Xie Moling's brief introduction, he said that in the past two years, there have been more than ten Freedom monks, and there are not many good positions left, so we must seize the opportunity, and so on.

He has no intention of going out to serve for the time being, and the quality of the position is second to none.

Tu Kun said that he advanced too fast, let him settle down and practice for a few years, and when he encounters a bottleneck on the way of practice, he will use the luck of the imperial court to polish it. , is Xuan Mu's experience back then.

There was another sudden shock under his feet.

The remaining leaves on the tree rustled and fell with the north wind.

As Tu Kun walked, there were streaks of yellow light going deep into the ground. He is the spirit of the earth, and he has a unique set of methods for exploring the earth. After a while, he said: "It's not a natural disaster. I sensed that it was **. Someone destroyed a certain range of mountain roots and water transportation."

Zhang Wenfeng didn't intend to fly to investigate, he was not in his position, and he didn't plan for his own affairs. He rushed over in a hurry, but it would make other people feel guilty, thinking that he was taking credit.

"Approximately how much of the mountain's root water transport was destroyed? Was it done by the monks in the free environment?"

"'Look' is not so careful. About fifty or sixty miles of mountains and rivers have been seriously affected. It is estimated that many people were killed and injured. I don’t know if it was done by the monks in the free environment? It may also be the evil magic circle arranged by the evil cultivators to destroy Fengshui. The time should not be short, otherwise this movement cannot be made."

Tu Kun was not even curious to see it with his own eyes.

He used his innate supernatural powers to investigate, purely out of consideration for the safety of the Taoist temple, so as not to let the disaster spread to the vicinity, and even if it did, he could come up with countermeasures earlier.

Hearing what Tu Kun said, Zhang Wenfeng took out the yellow talisman and sent some information to Hufa Xie.

Daoluyuan has a special geologist to deal with the destruction of large-scale mountain root water transportation.

He also sent messages to the second senior brother and Yue Anyan separately, asking them to warn the disciples not to panic, mortals who felt the shock might make a little fuss, and it will be fine after a while.

Tu Kun looked at Joy who was sweating profusely as he ran along the mountains from the west, and laughed in a low voice: "The little guy who can break off the marriage contract with the goddess of water, and is connected by luck, has a different fate than ordinary people, and suffers a lot. People can still be so alive and kicking, it can be seen that the heart is firm."

Zhang Wenfeng's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Why don't you accept a formal disciple?"

He used the method of teaching Shui Qingru to train Lezi, how could an old monster like Tu Kun, who has a vicious vision, be effective?

"It's fine to accept apprentices, not to mention it's troublesome, and it also involves karma. That little guy's life is very hard, otherwise he would have died several times. My life is bad, and I am easy to be a villain. I am afraid of being overcome... "

Tu Kun made insinuations at the end of his speech, alluding to the good brother who could cheat him for 500 years.

"In fact, I have been observing that little guy. It is also a skill for a mortal to encounter major events that can change people's minds, but his mind has not changed drastically. He is holding a puff of anger in his heart, but it is not resentment or hostility. Observation Lord, is your old Zhang family's ancestral grave smoking green smoke, trying to produce some talents, geeks!"

"You really don't accept disciples?"

Zhang Wenfeng was a little surprised to hear that Tu Kun, who was usually proud and arrogant, had such a high opinion of Lezi.

He heard that Tukun admired Lezi very much, so he asked a question.

"It's no problem to accept a registered disciple."

Tu Kun then emphasized: "My method is more severe. He can bear hardships and pain, so I accept registered disciples. Otherwise, everything will be discussed, and I will teach you."

Zhang Wenfeng asked: "Will it not be disabled or killed?"

Uncle Lame finally found this single seedling, he had to ensure that there would be no problems with Lezi's cultivation.

"Often hurt his muscles and bones, and his life hangs by a thread, but with my personal care, he can't die."

Tu Kun gave a rare and strange look, he really took a fancy to such a tough little guy, it happened that he had a set of unconventional body forging methods, which could be used to help mortals without qualifications to temper their bodies and forge their foundations.

Just two words, endure hardship!

Ordinary people don't even have to think about it, they will definitely not be able to bear it.

Of course, there is no need to think about not having a solid family background. Being poor and rich is not just for fun.
