Chapter 94: The reincarnation of Emperor Donghua, a dream of Huangliang; Quanzhen Fifth Ancestor [please subscribe]
This Lu Yan was from Yongle County, Puzhou, Datang.
It also comes from a family of officials.
But, his career was not going well in this life and he failed to get a Jinshi in both times.
When he was 64 years old, Lu Yan met a feather in a tavern on his way to Chang'an.
This man has a green scarf and a white robe, and I wrote three books on the wall:
The first one said:
I often carry a pot of wine while sitting and lying down, and I don’t teach my eyes to recognize the imperial capital; I have no name for a long time, and I have evacuated a husband on earth.
The second one says:
It is not easy to meet the true immortals who preach the mission. When will they go back and wish to follow each other? They say that their residence is connected to the East China Sea, which is the first peak of Penglai.
The third one said:
Loneliness and disgust and jokes frequently, thinking about separation and chaos can hurt your mind; counting in your spare time will lead to the beginning, and how many people will find Qingping?
Lu Yan was surprised to see this man with an ancient appearance.
I also saw that the wall was elegant and poetic, unrestrained, and had the style of immortality.
He hurriedly bowed to him and asked him for his surname.
However, Han Zhongli did not answer this, but just asked Lu Yan to write a poem.
Lu Yan's heart was calm and remembered that he was wasting half of his life, so he wrote it with his pen.
His poem says:
Born in Confucianism, I met peace, hanging my tassels and hanging my clothes and collars; who can compete for fame and fortune in the world, and I want to serve the God of Heaven.
Seeing this poem, Han Zhongli knew it in his heart. He looked at Lu Yan deeply and asked with a smile:
"I am Mr. Yunfang, who lives on the top of He Peak in Zhongnan. Do you want to travel with the old Taoist in the mountains and fields without asking about the world?"
After the words came, Lu Yan's face was stunned and his heart was shaking.
Haven't spoken for a while.
Seeing this scene, how could Han Zhongli not know that Lu Yan was still concerned about the imperial examination and wanted to achieve great things and shine his family's lintel, so as to exude his youth of not being younger than him for many years.
While thinking, he waved his hand and took out a jar of yellow wine from his sleeve.
I have to pull Lu Yan to drink together.
Seeing this, Lu Yan couldn't refuse and could only take a sip for help.
However, this cup made him fall into a drowsy and dream.
Dreams are good dreams, but real and unrealistic.
In his dream, Lu Yan went to Beijing to take the exam. He passed the top scorer and was promoted from the Secret Pavilion of the Censorate Hall of the State Council and the Commander of the Commander. He was all prepared.
The two married a wealthy daughter, had a child and had a long marriage, and the grandson and nephew were surrounded by hairpins and slaughter.
After a few more, forty years have passed in a flash.
He has been the only prime minister for ten years and has a great power.
I was occasionally punished for being a serious crime, confiscated my family's income, scattered my wife and children, and was sent to the ridge.
I was alone, hardworking and haggard, and immediately sighed in the wind and snow.
Suddenly, Lu Yan was awakened and looked up suddenly. The wine and food on the table were still warm.
At that time, Mr. Yunfang was smiling and looking at him:
"The yellow millet is still not ripe, I dreamed of Huaxu."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yan's face changed drastically and said in surprise:
"How do you know that I have a dream?"
Now that things have come to this point, Yunfang believes that he has already made the opportunity to save himself, so he pointed out:
"The dreams you have are in all shapes and are full of glory and magnanimity. You have risen to the top, become rich and noble, and you have enough to enjoy fifty years of experience."
"But the disaster is endless, and things in the world are unpredictable. Just a moment, the high official and generous salary, and the joy of family life are just the past. Fame, fortune, wealth, children and grandchildren are all like a flash of time, and you can catch them again
What can I live in?"
"The so-called gain is not enough to be happy, so how can it be sad? If there are people in the world, then they will know that there is a great worry in the world. Whether it is worry or happiness, they will not be able to get the heart of the world. In the end, they will be troubled and it will be difficult to be free and free."
Hearing this, Lu Yan was moved.
In an instant, I stopped thinking of another imperial examination.
Instead, he looked at Mr. Yunfang with a respectful face, knelt down to him, and asked humbly:
"I hope that Mr. I will teach me the art of saving the world, in order to transcend the world and live freely and forever."
At this moment, Lu Yan knew that he had met a real master.
Now, after having this dream of yellow beauty, true and false, false, he has learned too much and relieved too much.
Let go of some things, and too much obsession is just false.
Only by looking directly at yourself, cultivating one's own character, and being leisurely and sitting on the verge of immortality can you be free.
In response, Mr. Yunfang shook his head and did not rush to agree:
"You have not yet completed the world and the world has not yet been broken. Please clean up and then call me a disciple."
"If you still want to go to the deep mountains and recite scriptures and Taoism at that time, the old Taoist will appear and teach you the way to save the world and live forever."
After the words fell, Mr. Yunfang turned into clouds and smoke and disappeared.
Leaving Lu Yan alone for a long time.
After a while, Lu Yan recalled Yun Fang's words and finally left Chang'an.
Since he parted with Yunfang, Lu Yan returned home, abandoned scholars and retired without caring about the world.
On the other hand, Mr. Yunfang is Han Zhongli, who has to try it out in ten difficult times to see his sincerity.
First try:
One day, when Lu Yan went out, he suddenly saw that his family members died of illness. He felt extremely sad and could not control himself.
After recovering, he was ready to have a grand funeral. After everything was done, Lu Yan knew that all the dead were resurrected, so he took this matter lightly.
...
The third test: Lu Yan went out on the door and met a beggar who asked for gifts. Lu Yan and the beggar who asked for things, but he never got tired of asking for it, so he added a message. Lu Yan smiled and thanked him again and again.
The fourth test: Lu Yan's shepherds sheep, and he encountered a hungry tiger running to the flock of sheep: Lu Yan's sheep came down the mountain, and he took it alone, and the tiger was released.
Exam Fifth: Lu Yan lived in the middle of the mountain and read the scriptures. Suddenly, there was a woman who was eighteen years old. She was born with a stunning appearance and was beautiful and charming.
She said she had returned to Ning's mother's house, and now she had nowhere to settle down at dusk, so she took this rest.
In response, Lu Yan agreed.
Unexpectedly, after the woman stayed, she tempted Lu Yan in various ways, seduced him, and even took off her clothes at night and forced her to sleep together, but Lu Yan still did not have a lustful heart.
This way, lasting for three days, the woman left.
The sixth test: Lu Yan went out one day and returned, and his family's resources were robbed and he was almost out of service. Lu Yan was not angry at all, so he worked hard to support himself.
One day he was hoeing the ground, and under the hoe, a golden light flashed by.
Suddenly I realized that there were dozens of ingots of gold in the ground where the hoe was placed. Lu Yan was not greedy for it and covered it with soil, and nothing had been taken.
...
Trying Ten: Lu Yan sat alone in the room. When he was confused, he suddenly saw thousands of ghosts and yakshas coming, trying to kill his life, but he sat upright and had no fear.
Even the steel knife fell down and he wanted to chop his head.
The iron fork came through, trying to stab his heart, but he still looked calm, as if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, and his heart was towering and tall.
Soon, a ghost came to the clouds, and helped the people in the room, threatened Lu Yan fiercely:
"Too many holes, you killed me in your previous life, which will prevent me from being reincarnated. You should pay my life in this life."
"If I don't want to, I will kill the people in this room!"
Seeing this, Lu Yan opened his mouth:
"I can save everyone and sacrifice justice."
After the words came, Lu Yan found a short knife and wanted to commit suicide to apologize.
However, when the short knife slashed his neck, a loud shout suddenly sounded in the air.
The next moment, all the ghosts and gods disappeared.
Even the short knife in Lu Yan's hand fell to the ground.
Suddenly, someone came from the room and applauded and laughed at Lu Yan.
Lu Yan looked up and saw that it was Mr. Yunfang whom he saw in a Chang'an restaurant that day.
As soon as Mr. Yunfang came here, he looked pleased and said to Lu Yan:
"Lu Yan, the old Taoist has tried you ten times and studied them one by one, but you can still stick to your original intention and be unmoved. Now that you have the world and the immortal path has been completed, the old Taoist has come to accept you as your disciple."P>
"In addition, I will also teach you the Yellow and White Arts and the Great Way of Golden Elixir. I hope you will benefit the world and benefit the world in the future, make three thousand achievements, eight hundred steps, and become a real person."
Hearing this, Lu Yan was delighted and immediately bowed to Mr. Yunfang:
"Thank you, Master."
Soon, Mr. Yunfang took Lu Yan to Heling, Zhongnan Mountain to pass on his yellow and white techniques and the Golden Pill Avenue.
...
After suppressing the old things in his heart, Lu Dongbin asked Han Zhongli:
"Master, now my disciple has gathered three flowers to the top and has become a real person. I think I will become an immortal soon. I wonder what kind of scarf can that strong man have?"
Taoism has four powerful men, "Chin, Qing, Xuan, and Bai", who are Taoist guardians.
A little lower than the Tianshi.
Among them, the Red Scarf is the highest strongman, and the next time, the white one is the second time.
Hearing this, Han Zhongli shook his head:
"Dongbin, although you have become a real person, you are still unable to become an immortal."
"Why is this?"
Lu Dongbin was confused and looked at Han Zhongli with a strange look.
In the Taoist sect, after passing the Three Flowers and One Realm, one will be a real person.
An ordinary real person who has only been able to reach this state for a hundred years is the best choice.
Since Lu Dongbin practiced Taoism, he has only been in more than ten years. According to Lu Dongbin's expectation, it is the Red Scarf-Strength Staff who carried the chariot to congratulate him and welcomed him to ascend to heaven.
Why can't you become an immortal?
"I really want to know?"
Han Zhongli waved the banana fan with his hand and spoke in disguise.
"Disciple wants to know."
Lu Dongbin focuses on the key points.
In response to this, Han Zhongli looked remarkable, and he said helplessly:
"Well, since you have a real person, you should understand the past when things are so far."
"Dongbin, I'm not to hide it from it. You are the reincarnation of Emperor Donghua and have a lot of connection with being a teacher."
"I won't hide the origin of your teacher."
"I am a Yantai native who was five or six hundred years old in the previous dynasty. When I was strong, I joined the army and later became a general."
"Clinking materials, less than three years after becoming a general, the border reports came. The Yi tribe led more than 300,000 people to invade the border, plunder women, and rob people's wealth. The momentum was like a mountain collapse and tide. As a last resort, he got the teacher.
At that time, the emperor ordered me to be appointed as marshal and lead troops to fight."
"It's a pity that I lost that battle."
"When you retreat, you entered the valley and got lost. When it was in a state of depression, you will save me."
"A few words have passed, and I will let my teacher explain the ambition of tigers and leopards and turn it into the concept of phoenixes and cranes. Later, I passed on the method of health preservation. Later, I received guidance from Li Xuan, a disciple of Laojun, to practice the immortal method, and then met Hua.
Master Yang, you have to teach the wonderful method of Taiji, the internal alchemy of Fire Talisman..."
"Later, you will attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven."
Hearing this, Lu Dongbin suddenly realized and exclaimed:
"I didn't expect that my disciples have such a connection with my master..."
In response, Han Zhongli explained:
"Dongbin, the reason why you are unable to become an immortal is that your calamity is not over. When you were a clone of your body, you followed the destiny of heaven and established a sect of Quanzhen in the world."
"This sect must go through the Five Patriarchs before it can be praised as the Taoist sect and pass on to future generations."
"Since your predecessor, Donghua, became the first ancestor, and became the teacher, and became the second ancestor."
"You are the Third Patriarch now, and you have a long way to go. You still have no experience in the second Patriarch, so you need to save it."
