Chapter 648 Three Mountains Visit
"Is this here?"
Somewhere at the foot of Lushan Mountain, a feminine man with a white face and no beard, wearing a gorgeous robe, asked.
At this time, one of the few people who looked like guards around him stepped forward and asked the feminine man and replied: "Master Qi, I have inquired and found out that the Huilong Temple of Huolong Zhenren is located on this mountain."
The feminine man raised his head and looked at the mountains in front of him. The mountains were covered with lush vegetation and thin mist spread across the mountains, making the scenery in the mountains faintly visible.
"Let's go! We can't delay His Majesty's important event!" the feminine man ordered calmly, and walked up the mountain first, followed closely by the guards, who went up the mountain together.
Just after a group of people went up the mountain, a man jumped down from a tree not far away. He looked at the group of people walking towards the mountain and frowned slightly: "People from the imperial court are also here. This matter must be reported to the Lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man disappeared in a flash.
On the other side, a figure pretending to be an old farmer took this scene in his eyes, looked at the mist on the mountain, and smiled: "Here comes another group of useless people who can't even get up, so what are you doing?"
How can we see the true form of the immortal?"
Just as the man pretending to be an old farmer said, the chamberlain led a group of guards on the road up the mountain. After a while, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"No, stop first!" The waiter waved his hand to stop the group and looked up towards the mountain.
"The Zajia family has been walking for so long, why haven't they arrived at Huilongguan yet?" The servant looked up at the location of Huilongguan, and then estimated the length of the journey he saw at the foot of the mountain.
Logically speaking, after walking for so long, we have already walked more than half of the distance. Why haven't we reached the vicinity of Longguan yet?
After hesitating for a while, the chamberlain led the people to continue walking forward, looking up from time to time at the Taoist temple looming in the mountains.
At this time, a group of people suddenly discovered that no matter how they moved forward, they seemed to be standing still. The Taoist temple clearly appeared to be halfway up the mountain, but they could never get close and could only look at it from a distance - as if the Taoist temple
It's like a mirage, which can only be seen from a distance but cannot be touched!
Realizing that this might be some unbelievable means of blocking, the chamberlain couldn't help but look bitter: "What should we do? If we can't see the immortal, our family will have to raise our heads to see the emperor!"
The chamberlain was worried about not being able to go up the mountain to see Taoist Huolong when he suddenly heard a movement from behind and turned his head to look down the mountain behind him.
I saw four Taoists with fluttering clothes coming hand in hand. The four of them were very fast. In almost a few blinks of an eye, the four of them arrived at the place where the servants and their entourage were.
Before the eunuch could say hello, the four Taoists seemed not to have seen them. They just passed by the eunuch and his group in a flash. With another glance, the four figures disappeared into the forest and disappeared.
Seeing this scene, the waiter hurriedly shouted hello and chased forward. But after chasing for a while, they had to stop.
"No, we don't seem to have shortened the distance at all. Look at the stone next to it, have we passed by it twice just now?" a guard in the team said.
Hearing this, the chamberlain glanced at the big rocks on the roadside and found that they looked familiar. Then he looked up at the Taoist temple on the mountain. There was no sign of approaching, so he had no choice but to stop.
But he said that the four Taoists went all the way up the mountain and soon arrived in front of Huilong Temple.
One of them was about to knock on the door when he suddenly saw the Taoist temple door creaking open from inside, and a seven or eight-year-old Taoist priest came out.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
After the young Taoist priest opened the door, he saluted the four Taoists in front of the door: "The Patriarch knew that the four of them were coming, so he asked Xiaodao to come out to greet them."
Hearing this, the four Taoists couldn't help but look at each other, and the leading middle-aged Taoist couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the real person has already predicted that we are coming, and this method is getting more and more incredible."
The other three people said nothing, and the middle-aged Taoist priest took out a greeting card from his sleeve: "This is a greeting card from a poor Taoist!"
The young Taoist priest finally paid his respects and said to the four people: "Please come with Xiaodao!" The young Taoist priest welcomed the four people into the door and walked towards the back room of the Taoist temple.
The four of them followed the person who led the way to the ward, and saw a young man looking at them with a smile in front of the ward.
"Poverty Taoist Huo Longzi, I have met Zhang Tianshi!" Taoist Huo Long, whose appearance had returned to his youth, bowed to the middle-aged Taoist who was the leader of the four.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" The contemporary Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion in Longhu Mountain quickly turned aside and gave way to Taoist Huolong, "My fellow Taoist is a true immortal in this world, how can a poor Taoist dare to accept such a gift? On the contrary, it is the poor Taoist who should give this gift.
Brother Taoist, that’s how you salute!”
Taoist Huolong smiled, did not answer the question, and led the four of them into the closet.
After both sides sat down, Taoist Huolong looked at this contemporary Heavenly Master and asked, "I wonder why Heavenly Master Zhang came to my Huilong Temple?"
This contemporary heavenly master did not hide anything, and said bluntly: "I came to visit you this time, firstly, to ask the real person to give guidance on the door to immortality, and secondly, it is also about Taoist matters."
Hearing this, Taoist Huolong was not surprised.
As the leader of the Zhengyi Alliance, Tianshi Mansion was granted the title by the emperor to take charge of the Taoist affairs of the world. He is the leader of the Taoist sect in the world. Naturally, he attaches great importance to the emergence of a real immortal in the Taoist sect. In addition, he has a deep understanding of the method of becoming an immortal.
If you are interested, it is only natural that you would come here.
However, Taoist Huolong did not agree directly: "Fellow Taoist should know that the Dharma should not be taught lightly. I don't know why my friend is me?"
Zhang Tianshi did not hesitate at all: "I am willing to give up my position as Tianshi and ask a real person to lead our Taoist sect!"
At this time, not only Taoist Huolong was surprised, but even the three people next to him looked at Master Zhang in astonishment.
They really did not expect that this contemporary Celestial Master would exchange his position as a Celestial Master, which is hereditary only within the Zhang family, for the method of becoming an immortal.
However, after thinking about it carefully, they were not surprised that this contemporary Celestial Master would make such a decision: You know, this is the way to become an immortal. No matter how wonderful the worldly rights are, they are far inferior to becoming an immortal.
Achieving the Tao is very attractive. If they could trade their 'position as a Heavenly Master' for the opportunity to become an immortal, they would make the same decision without hesitation!
Taoist Huolong looked at the serious-looking Zhang Tianshi and knew that he was not lying. He then laughed and shook his head: "What do you want from your position as Tianshi? I only need a promise from you!"
Hearing that Huolong Taoist did not want the position of Heavenly Master, this contemporary Heavenly Master could not help but feel disappointed. However, when he heard the second half of the sentence, he quickly asked: "I wonder what the promise is?"
Taoist Huolong glanced at Zhang Tianshi and the two old Taoist priests beside him, and slowly stated his condition: "In the future, if a poor Taoist has needs, you three mountains of Fulu must support the poor Taoist without any reservation!"
Zhang Tianshi turned his eyes and looked at the leader of the Lingbao Sect and the leader of the Shangqing Sect beside him. The three of them looked at each other and immediately understood what they meant.
Withdrawing his gaze, Zhang Tianshi looked at Taoist Huolong: "Pindao and my two fellow Taoists hereby solemnly make a promise that if the Taoist needs it in the future, I, Fulu Sanshan, will support the Taoist without any reservation!"
The old Taoist Qian Xuzi on the side witnessed this scene silently. He knew in his heart that after today, the Taoist sect will undergo earth-shaking changes.
After receiving the commitment from the leaders of Zhengyi, Shangqing and Lingbao sects, Taoist Huolong was not stingy and taught the four people the key to cultivation.
"The key point of practice is still based on the true qi cultivated by our internal skills. However, the general practice of true qi moves in the meridians. When the internal skills practice reaches a certain foundation, the true qi must be used. Qi cultivation turns to the acupoints all over the body, and the most critical acupoint is the Xuanguan acupoint..."
Of course, Taoist Huolong did not directly teach them the method of practice, but pointed out the direction and key points of practice to the four of them, as well as how to do the key points.
As early as when he was in Donglin Temple, Qian Xuzi had already received guidance from Taoist Huolong, but at that time Taoist Huolong was unclear. He thought about it for a long time, and there were still many things he didn't understand.
Now when I listen to Taoist Huolong's explanation, those things that I didn't understand will suddenly become clear to me.
With these pointers, even if there is no specific method of cultivation, relying on the foundation of Fulu Sanshan that is far beyond the ordinary Jianghu sects, they can cross the threshold and create their own method of cultivating immortality that is most suitable for their own sect.
After firmly remembering what Taoist Huolong said in his heart, Master Zhang, the leader of Lingbao Sect and the leader of Shangqing Sect opened their eyes one after another, and all saluted to Taoist Huolong who was sitting on the cave: "Thank you Master. Preach the law!”
Taoist Huolong accepted the three people's greetings safely, and then said: "The first thing has been completed, let's talk about the second thing. What are your plans?"
"Regarding this matter, we, the Taoist sects, together with the real people, can we drive Buddhism completely out of the Tang Dynasty?" Zhang Tianshi said the second purpose of his visit.
"This is not possible!" Taoist Huolong shook his head, "Buddhism has been taking root in China for hundreds of years since it came to China on white horses carrying scriptures on white horses during the Han Dynasty. It has long been deeply rooted here, and its beliefs have been deeply rooted in the people of the world. Among them, even if the old Taoist achieves immortality, he still cannot completely wipe out Buddhism!"
Hearing Taoist Huolong say this, Zhang Tianshi and the other three were not disappointed.
The reason why they proposed this statement was because they wanted to give it a try. Since Taoist Huolong refused, they gave up this most direct idea and turned to discussing how to suppress Buddhism.
There are three religions in China: Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. Among them, Confucianism is said to be a sect. In fact, it is completely different from Taoism and Buddhism. It is also a prominent school in the world. Confucianism has long been integrated into the ruling class, so it is not an enemy of Taoism.
Buddhism originated from the Shi family in Tianzhu, and its teachings had the greatest impact on Taoism and attracted the most hatred from Taoists.
