Chapter 39 Celebration
Back to Luxian Temple, the sun is setting to the west, not far from the sunset.
The believers in front of the Lu Xian Temple were sparse, so naturally there were no one to explain the sign.
The old Taoist Changkongzi was sitting behind the square table in front of the gate of the Luxian Temple Hall, looking boredly at the passers-by on the official road not far away.
Chen Yuan and Lu Yan appeared in front of the gate of the Lu Xian Temple, and others could not notice them at all.
Only the long hole sitting behind the square table of decorating the signing saw Chen Yuan and Lu Yan’s master and apprentice at a glance.
"Fellow Taoist, you are back, this one is..."
Changkongzi stood up enthusiastically from behind the square table, and then he saw Lu Yan beside Chen Yuan. He stopped halfway through his words, because he vaguely thought of a shocking answer in his heart.
Could it be that this young scholar is the Duke of Lu Xian worshipped in the hall?
Lu Yan smiled when he heard this, and then he took a step forward. His outfit, which was originally a young scholar, changed rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Yan, who was still a young scholar just now, had already turned into a different look.
I saw him become a middle-aged Taoist man wearing a moon-white Taoist robe, a pure sun scarf, a whisk in his right hand, a long beard with his left hand, and a long sword carrying him.
It is exactly the same as the statue worshipped in the main hall of Lu Xian Temple at this time, and it looks no different from the one in the shape.
"Changkongzi, you have been worshipping me for so many years, but still can't recognize who I am?"
Lu Yan smiled.
"The temple wishes Changkongzi to pay homage to Duke Lu Xian."
Changkongzi was startled and quickly knelt down and saluted Lu Xiangong.
"Forgive it. You can be destined to be able to get along with me, a disciple. It is precisely because of this that I let you see my true face. I should leave after the matter is done."
After saying that, Lu Yan walked towards the main hall of the Lu Xian Temple with the appearance of a middle-aged Taoist.
And as he walked step by step into the main hall of Luxian Temple, his figure gradually became taller.
When he walked to the statue of the Luxian Temple Hall, he had become about the same tall as the statue worshipped in the Luxian Temple Hall. Lu Yan flew to the stage and, under the gaze of Chen Yuan and Chang Kongzi, he was combined with the statue.
Then there was no movement in the hall and it seemed that it had left like this.
"Fellow Taoist, that was just..."
Seeing that Duke Lu Xian left under his nose, Changkongzi stood up from the ground and looked at Chen Yuan with confusion.
"That's my master, but it should be the true face. It's the first time I've seen it."
Chen Yuan was also a little surprised.
"That fellow Taoist and Mr. Lu Xian were out this time?"
Changkongzi tentatively.
"It's okay, I just officially joined the Master's door wall. Looking at my outfit, I have already become a formal scarf. In the future, if you call me a fellow Taoist, you will be worthy of your reputation."
Chen Yuan pointed to the pure scarf and Taoist robe he wore.
"Congratulations to fellow Taoist, for being officially included in the door wall by the immortal Duke Lu Xian, the fellow Taoist can be regarded as a fairy path in the future."
Changkongzi had envy on his face, and he also sincerely congratulated Chen Yuan.
As a Taoist priest, although he was just a mortal Taoist priest who did not have a master of cultivation, he knew that there was a big difference in the transmission of the Taoist crown scarf.
Even if I worshipped the master before the crown scarf, I could only be considered a Taoist boy outside the sect.
Only by passing the crown scarf can one become a true Taoist priest and his relationship with his master will be closer.
The relationship between master and apprentice without the crown scarf is very loose. If the master thinks that the disciple is not doing well, he has the right to drive the disciple out at any time.
"It's just a formal apprenticeship, and it's still far from the immortal path."
Chen Yuan shook his head.
He has self-knowledge.
"Why not celebrate such a happy event?"
Changkongzi suddenly proposed.
Just as Chen Yuan wanted to ask Changkongzi how to celebrate, Changkongzi said: "Fellow Taoists look at the temple, and the old Taoists will go back."
After saying that, he turned around and ran to the market next to him. Chen Yuan smiled and sat behind the square table where he had just been unwritten.
When Changkongzi comes back, it is already dusk.
In his hand, he was holding a roast chicken wrapped in lotus leaves, a pack of braised beef, a portion of peanuts, and a jar of high-quality Huadiao wine.
The two closed the temple gate in advance, sat on the square table under the eaves of the backyard, opened all the food Changkong bought, and poured a bowl of Huadiao wine on each.
Chen Yuan looked at Changkongzi, who was sitting opposite him with a surprised look, looked very happy, said:
"Old Taoist priest, this is not your style. Today, the sun is coming out from the west. I usually ask you to treat a bowl of mutton stewed cakes, but you push and stop it. How could you be willing to buy these things today?"
Whether it is roast chicken or beef, the price is not cheap.
Changkongzi drank Huadiao wine poured into the bowl with a sip:
"As I just said, first of all, I am going to celebrate the Taoist Crown Scarf and officially become a disciple of Duke Lu Xian."
"Second..."
After drinking, he poured himself a long hole in his bowl, looked up at Chen Yuan and said:
"The old Taoist feels that the fellow Taoist has not stayed here for too long, and I'm afraid I'll leave soon, so I'll practice it for the fellow Taoist in advance today."
Chen Yuan didn't say anything, and he had to admit that Changkongzi was quick-witted.
The reason why Master Lu Yan left him in the Lu Xian Temple at that time was probably because he had considered his ideas.
Now that he has held a crown scarf for him and put him in the door wall, it means that he has fully recognized his apprentice, so naturally there is no need for him to stay here.
Moreover, he went to study with his parents before, and it took more than three years to leave. It was time to go back to see his family.
"Actually, the old Taoist is used to being alone. Who knew that the Taoist suddenly appeared? At first, it really made the Taoist a little uncomfortable, but later, he got used to the Taoist's friend and was about to leave again."
After drinking a few bowls of wine, Changkongzi's eyes began to become erratic, and his tone showed regret.
Chen Yuan accompanied Changkongzi to drink a few bowls of wine, but he didn't say much, and kept listening to Changkongzi.
I heard Changkongzi say that the Taoist temple where he was before was a small temple with only a few Taoist priests...
However, because there are ghosts in this world, their master did not have real skills, so it became more and more destructive later. After the master died, several brothers went down the mountain and made their own way to make their own lives.
Changkongzi is no exception. When he was young, he had been involved in the world, protected the raids, worked as a boatman, and had done business by himself.
In the end, he returned to his old career and became a Taoist priest.
At that time, the Lu Xian Temple was in need of a temple blessing, so he agreed to do it for more than ten years...
At the end, Changkongzi got drunk and lay on the table, unconscious. Chen Yuan helped Changkongzi back to his room to sleep.
This little wine has no effect on Chen Yuan at all. After returning to the room, Chen Yuan lay on the bed and closed his eyes, and began to practice the "Feal Breathing Rules" in his sleep.
However, Chen Yuan did not notice that after he cultivated the "Taiyi Jinhua Purpose", his body was constantly absorbing the clear spirit energy between heaven and earth.
While he returned to the Luxian Temple, the entire Luxian Temple benefited.
Especially the seven peach trees outside the temple also changed some changes.
...
Later, Chen Yuan gradually discovered it.
The master Lu Yan, who had originally agreed to appear in two or three days and teach him once, never appeared again.
It was not until ten days later that Lu Yan appeared in the Lu Xian Temple again.
Lu Yan is still dressed like a young scholar.
When Chen Yuan asked Lu Yan, "Master, why did you come after ten days?"
Lu Yan couldn't help laughing.
He looked at the disciple Chen Yuan in front of him and said with a kind expression: "Disciple, I have taught you everything I should teach you. The next step you can go depends on yourself."
Lu Yan then said, "I came here this time to tell you that since you have cultivated into a elixir and have held a crown scarf for you, it's time for you to leave."
Chen Yuan was stunned and came to his senses: "Master asked me to go there?"
Lu Yan said: "If you want to go there, go there, go there. As a teacher, I told you before that this immortal is what he requires and needs to go through hardships to achieve success. It is not something you can achieve through living in a corner of a place and practice hard behind closed doors. You have to go and experience some things yourself, so that you will have an answer in your heart. This Lu Xian Temple is just the starting point of your path to practice."
After pausing for a moment, Lu Yan said again: "Didn't you think about going home and reporting your family safety? You can go back now."
