In order to welcome the immortal official, many lanterns were hung in the Hu family's Shou Zhuo Garden, which illuminated the garden very brightly.

Fairy Bluebird could sense the place where Hu You escaped from the body, so she did not need the fox spirit to lead the way, and led Zhang Muzhi forward.

"Hey!" Fairy Bluebird suddenly sighed.

Zhang Muzhi asked softly: "Why is the fairy so melancholy?"

Fairy Bluebird turned around and waved her hand back, signaling the fairies to stay away.

As for the male and female vixens headed by Hu Sanlang, they were hanging far behind, and they couldn't even see their shadows.

"I just think people like Sister Ruliu are too ignorant!" Fairy Bluebird sighed as she walked.

Zhang Muzhi was silent for a moment: "This is the pain of living in a troubled world, being bound and unable to break free!"

The Blue Bird Fairy shook her head: "I am the Blue Bird on Mount Tai and was inspired by the Empress, but I cannot understand this kind of suffering. I just feel that people like Sister Liu... are so stupid that it makes people grit their teeth, but there is nothing they can do about it!"

Zhang Muzhi said with a smile: "So my Taoist emphasis is on rescuing people according to circumstances and helping all living beings. Buddhism also has a theory of escaping people from the sea of ​​suffering."

Fairy Bluebird raised her head and asked: "That day I vaguely heard Mr. Xu Jing say that the little heavenly master can know what will happen hundreds of years from now. Will there still be ignorant people like Sister Liu by then?"

Zhang Muzhi thought about it and found that in his own era in later generations, some people had indeed raised the banner of returning to Confucius and Confucianism. Some extreme people even wanted to abandon Han Chinese writing, but they still had little effect.

"There are indeed enlightened people who want to enlighten people's wisdom and change people's hearts, but there is little hope..."

Fairy Qingniao wanted to ask more details, but Zhang Muzhi shook his head and said: "This matter is too involved and I can't go into details. I can only look at the future."

This matter involves Confucianism, etiquette, and even humane court changes. In this world where gods are sacred, it is indeed inconvenient to say more.

Confucianism has great gods such as Kong Sheng, Wenchang Emperor, Wenqu Xingjun, etc. If any one of them comes out, the current Zhang Muzhi cannot afford to offend him.

What's more, if Zhang Muzhi wants to postpone the end of the Dharma in the future, he will have to rely on the help of the imperial court and Confucianism.

If Zhang Muzhi says one more word here, he will be in a situation where he will be the enemy of the whole world if he is found out by someone who is interested. Any hope of immortality and destiny will come to naught.

The line seal of the Qian hexagram in "The Book of Changes" says: "Use nine to see a group of dragons without a leader, which is auspicious!" It means that everyone works hard and makes their own decisions.

"I don't know when the people's wisdom will be enlightened and everyone will be like a dragon?" Zhang Muzhi couldn't help but sigh.

Fairy Bluebird nodded and stopped asking.

The two of them suddenly lost interest in talking and walked in silence all the way to the attic where Hu You lived.

Fairy Bluebird didn't go upstairs either, but shouted from downstairs: "Hu You! If you haven't escaped yet, when will you wait?"

Then I saw Hu You walking down the stairs, but his feet were silent and his figure was floating. It was Hu You's spirit after he escaped from the body.

Zhang Muzhi took one look and knew that Hu You's cultivation was only in the realm of Yin Shen. It seemed that his Yuan Shen's concentration was stronger than his own, but it was still very early in the process of refining Yin into Yang.

Hu You Yuanshen came closer, knelt down to pay homage to the Immortal Officer Jie Yin, and then saluted Zhang Muzhi.

Fairy Blue Bird nodded: "You go and say goodbye to your family members!"

At this time, a group of fairies also came behind Fairy Blue Bird, while Hu Sanlang and others stayed a little further away.

Hu You bowed and took a few steps back, then turned around and walked up to Hu Sanlang, gently asking him to take some time.

All the vixens bowed to bid farewell to Hu You again, none of them had any sad expressions on their faces, but most of them showed joy.

Also, Hu You went to the upper realm to work as an errand, and he was freed from the suffering of reincarnation and achieved righteousness.

Zhang Muzhi asked casually: "What proportion of fox schools in various places can pass the exam?"

Fairy Qingniao said: "The assessment has become more relaxed in recent years. Only a dozen of every hundred students can pass the assessment and be awarded the Immortal Ceremony."

Zhang Muzhi nodded: "Eternal life is rare, this is an extremely high ratio! How many times can each Fox student take the exam?"

"No matter what subject you study, if you fail the exam three times in a row, it means your talent is limited, and the fairy palaces in the upper world are not willing to accept you!"

If you fail the exam, you will be treated like a mortal and can live for hundreds of years.

It's just that these fox spirits are proficient in some changes and transportation techniques, and their lives are much easier than ordinary people.

"So Mr. Hu's departure means farewell to many vixens forever!"

Zhang Muzhi couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the graceful male and female vixens.

Fairy Bluebird said again: "If you have great opportunities and great perseverance, you can also take the path of Qi training..." Then he shook his head and said no more.

To cultivate Qi and seek immortality, those who belong to spirits need to work hard to exhale and circulate Qi, accumulate mana to condense the physical body and soul, and accumulate good deeds to alleviate thunder disasters. Even if they work hard for hundreds of years, they may not succeed.

From the Zhao and Song Dynasties to the present, there are more than tens of thousands of fox spirits in the world. In the end, only the two immortals, Huang and Bai, can finally merge their form and spirit into one, and attain enlightenment.

Hu Xin'er was initially confused when she heard about Zhang Muzhi's death, but now she finally realized that she would never see her uncle again, so she couldn't help but moan and cry.

Huang Erlang stood nearby and wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say. Naturally, Zhang Muzhi didn't know how to coax children.

It was Fairy Bluebird who bent down, hugged Hu Xiner and comforted her softly.

Perhaps the blue bird had restrained its aura, but this time the girl in white did not turn into a fox again.

After consoling her for a long time, the girl gradually stopped crying.

"If you study Taoism carefully with the Little Heavenly Master, you will naturally achieve positive results. Are you afraid that you won't have the chance to meet in the future?"

Hu Xiner's tears turned into laughter.

Hu You and Hu Sanlang finished explaining their family affairs, turned around and came to Fairy Blue Bird, bowed and said: "Fairy, I have no worries!"

Fairy Bluebird stood up and nodded, took out a wooden wat board from her sleeve, then made a magic formula with her right hand and pointed at Hu You!

Hu You's ghost body turned into a stream of light and flew into the wat board.

The blue bird waved to a fairy in blue, handed the wat board to him to hold, and then said to Zhang Muzhi with a smile:

"This Hu You was originally destined to have a bad fate, and he had to work as a scribe under Emperor Wenchang. Somehow, his luck increased a few days ago, and he managed to avoid the disaster. This time, he can at least get the position of counselor."

Zhang Muzhi smiled: "Maybe this is due to Emperor Wenchang's mercy and grace!"

Fairy Bluebird vaguely knew some of the inside story. Seeing that Zhang Muzhi was unwilling to take credit, she stopped mentioning it and just smiled and said: "Now you can enjoy the banquet in peace, right? Mount Tai is far away from this cloud road, so I happen to be a little hungry!"

Just as Zhang Muzhi was about to speak, he heard a "Wow!" sound behind him. It turned out to be Hu Xiner who couldn't help crying again when she saw her uncle being put into the wat board.

The Blue Bird Fairy winked, and a group of fairies behind her came forward to surround the girl and comfort her together.

"Bang!" The boy in white became a fox again.

Liu Su'e had no choice but to bend down and pick up the white fox, stroking its soft fur and whispering comfort.

Zhang Muzhi waved to Hu Sanlang: "Send someone to restrain Mr. Hu's body first, and then take me to the banquet!"

Hu Sanlang nodded, went back and arranged for four or five brothers from the clan to go up to the attic, and then trotted back all the way and bowed to greet him.

Fairy Qingniao instead asked Zhang Muzhi to go first, and the two of them bowed to each other for a few more words, and finally went together side by side.

Hu Sanlang respectfully led the way from the front, but his heart was already in turmoil:

"The status of the little Heavenly Master is higher than I thought! Even the immortal official in the upper world treated him with such courtesy..."

"Do these fairies usually look at us foxes? Today they actually held my sister in their arms!"

"I studied poetry and books and studied the Eight-part Theory for nearly twenty years, and then I managed to get an above-average rating in the Taishan Examination. After my death, I became an immortal official. The ghost in the tomb listened to the Little Heavenly Master reciting the scriptures several times, and became a

Have you become a fairy under the throne of Yuanjun?”

Hu Sanlang was able to be chosen by Hu You as the person in charge of family affairs, and he still had good eyesight. He had already noticed a hint of alienation from Zhang Muzhi's attitude.

"Originally I thought I had enough respect for the Little Heavenly Master, but now it seems I still haven't done enough..."

Not to mention what Hu Sanlang was planning in his mind, he only said that Zhang Muzhi, the Blue Bird Fairy and a group of fairies were introduced into a gorgeously decorated hall.

The hall is paved with mats woven from vanilla, and there are many futons and sandalwood tables arranged on the left and right.

Fairy Bluebird and Zhang Muzhi were placed at the top, followed by a group of fairies.

Because of the differences between immortals and mortals, the male and female vixens of the Hu family did not come to accompany them.

After Hu Sanlang ordered the banquet to begin, he retired and left. Later, many beautiful fox girls brought fresh fruits from the four seasons, exquisite snacks and other kinds of food. The gold bottles and jade pots contained not fine wine, but dew from the branches of vegetation in the mountains.<

/p>

The utensils are gorgeous and exquisite, but the dishes prepared are not the delicacies that ordinary people imagine, but they are just plain.

These vixens themselves are striving for immortality but cannot get it, so where can they get the immortal things to entertain their guests?

Similarly, where can these immortals from the upper world see the banquet prepared by the fox spirits in the mountains?

Hu Sanlang stood outside the hall and drank away a dozen fox girls who wanted to come in and toast the little Heavenly Master.

The white fox was hugged by all the fairies in turn, and was fed many snacks.

Zhang Muzhi asked Huang Erlang to sit beside his desk and eat some fresh fruits that were not commonly seen on weekdays.

Fairy Qingniao and Zhang Muzhi only had a taste of it, sitting and chatting.

Zhang Muzhi was curious about the affairs of the gods in the upper world, while the Blue Bird Fairy tried to test Zhang Muzhi's origins during the conversation.

"I heard that the contemporary Celestial Master only has one grandson, and he has just learned to walk. Where did this little Celestial Master come from?"

"When Mr. Xu Jing was chatting with Empress Yuanjun, he affectionately called him 'my son'. He is undoubtedly going to be the successor of the next generation of heavenly masters! Why have you never heard of this person before?"
