Chapter Eleven
After Taoist Lu meditated and adjusted his breath for a while to recover, he grabbed Zhang Wen and wrote down the inheritance of the ancestor. Since the inheritance of the ancestor in his mind was not particularly large, he wrote it all out in three or four hours.
After Zhang Wenjiang finished writing the last one, he threw the pen away, stretched and sighed, "My poor waist is almost stiff. Master, I have never written so many words in my entire life."
Lu Daoshi had been standing next to Zhang Wen. Every time Zhang Wen wrote a piece of paper, he took it over and read it again. He picked up the last piece of paper Zhang Wen wrote and looked at it. Suddenly he made a decision.
He said with a serious face, "The sixty-eighth generation disciple of the Maoshan Sect has listened to the order. Now kneel down in front of the ancestor and make an announcement for the master."
"Master, please stop joking. It took me a lot of effort to write down everything in my head. My back is still sore now. Just let me rest first. If you have anything to do, just say it like this. Why bother?
Are you going to trouble the Patriarch?" Zhang Wen said lazily, then looked at Taoist Lu and saw that Daoshi Lu was looking at him seriously. He stuck out his tongue and quickly stood up and knelt in front of the Patriarch.
.
Taoist Lu solemnly walked to the portrait of his ancestor, picked up three sticks of incense, lit them, and inserted them into the incense burner. He bowed respectfully to the portrait and then said with a serious face, "The sixty-eighth generation of the Maoshan Sect
Disciple, please listen, Yuan Lingzi, the sixty-seventh generation leader of the Maoshan Sect, has informed the Maoshan Patriarch to teach you the role of the leader of the Maoshan Sect. From today on, you will be the sixty-eighth generation leader of the Maoshan Sect."
"Master, please stop joking. You are still so strong. How can you pass on the position of leader to me? Tomorrow is Monday, and I have to rush back to do my homework. I'm going back first. I'll come see you when I have time.
You don't need to send me off, bye." Zhang Wen looked in disbelief and stood up quickly to sneak away.
"You brat, stop here and kneel down. If you run around again, be careful and I'll beat you up." Taoist Lu cursed angrily.
"Master, the news you said is too scary. I am only a high school student this year. If you leave the leader of the Maoshan Sect to me, you won't be afraid that I will defeat the Maoshan Sect. If you go to see the founder in the future,
Will you be scolded by the Patriarch? Otherwise, you should think about it again and make a decision after ten or twenty years."
"Fart, your master and I have made this decision after careful consideration. As the head of the Maoshan Sect, you are like cabbage in the market. If you want it, you can take it. If you don't want it, don't take it."
"If you're not Master, you should think about it again. It's really inappropriate to leave this position of leader to me." Zhang Wen continued to persuade.
"Bad boy, I also know that it is not appropriate to give you this important task now. It is probably because the ancestor is the body of a spiritual boy, and most of the inheritance he left behind are how to use the Yin-Yang Mirror, and the Yin-Yang Mirror is the body of a spiritual boy.
Only then can its functions be fully utilized. Therefore, I can only put the Yin-Yang Mirror into your hands to make full use of it."
"If this is the case, wouldn't it be easy to solve? Master, you continue to be your Maoshan leader, and I will still be my Maoshan disciple. Anyway, you, the leader of the Maoshan sect, will always pass it on to me, so you should first give the Yin-Yang Mirror
Lend it to me, and then pass the position of leader to me when you have nothing to do to go have tea with the Patriarch." Zhang Wen tried his best to find excuses.
Taoist Lu said angrily, "Nonsense, can you just follow the rules passed down by the ancestor? The Yin Yang Mirror is the token of the leader of the Maoshan Sect, and only the leader can wear it. You, a Maoshan disciple, carry the leader's
Token. You are deceiving your master and destroying your ancestors, do you understand?"
"Master, this is not an extraordinary period, so we are dealing with it extremely. Grandmaster will not blame you."
Taoist Lu slapped Zhang Wen on the head and scolded, "What the hell are you talking about? If you dare to change the rules set by the ancestor, you deserve a beating."
Zhang Wen rubbed his head and didn't dare to express his opinion anymore. Taoist Lu was also secretly amused. This apprentice was good at everything, but he had an eccentric personality and had to do something to be honest.
After Taoist Lu taught his apprentice a lesson, his emotions calmed down. He smiled calmly and said, "You don't need to be too nervous. When the master met you back then, he had already seen that you had extraordinary intelligence and the body of a spiritual boy. Since
You are destined to receive the inheritance from the ancestor, which proves that you have this opportunity."
Zhang Wen glared and complained, "You still have the nerve to say that you just used a few useless Taoist techniques to trick me into joining the Maoshan sect. If it weren't for the fact that you still have some skills, I would have fired your master long ago.
Except. How can I allow you to give orders and leave me alone?"
Taoist Lu was also very proud of being able to deceive Zhang Wen into joining the Maoshan sect. He smiled and said, "This is fate and fate. You are destined to become a disciple of the Maoshan sect. You can't even hide.
Just accept your fate."
Zhang Wen frowned and said angrily, "Master, aren't you afraid that if I die accidentally, the Maoshan sect will be wiped out?"
"Don't worry about this. Although your destiny is rather strange and cannot be calculated as a teacher, but judging from your appearance, you should not be short-lived. On the contrary, since the ancestor chose you to inherit his mantle, it proves that for
You are certainly able to cope with all kinds of things in the human world. The future rise and fall of the Maoshan Sect is in your hands, and I believe that the founder will not choose someone with shallow blessings to inherit his mantle."
Zhang Wen suddenly raised his head and looked at Taoist Lu carefully, "Master, when it comes to physiognomy, your upper stop (the position from the hairline to the brow) is full and shiny. You should be very proud of your experience as a boy. But the middle stop
(from brow to nose
The pointed position) is too short. You must have experienced some kind of misfortune in middle age. But Master, although you have become a Taoist priest now, your appearance is not that of a childless one. Did you still leave an illegitimate child?
Where is it that you don’t know?”
The so-called physiognomy, the ancients believed that people are born from the essence of the sun and the moon, and their fortune-telling has been determined by God when they make a sound, which is the so-called person's birth date. People's destiny can be divided into good and bad.
There is also a difference between handsome and ugly appearance. People can predict the mystery of destiny from their appearance. That is to predict fortune and fortune and predict good or bad luck by observing a person's facial features, appearance, bones, posture, and palmistry.
However, there is also a saying in physiognomy that "nature depends on destiny, and nurture depends on luck." Everyone can change their destiny to a certain extent through good fortune, such as Feng Shui and accumulation of yin virtues.
Taoist Lu also knew that Zhang Wen also had the inheritance of physiognomy in his mind, and that the inheritance left by the Maoshan School was a bit different from other sects of physiognomy. Maoshan's physiognomy not only observed people's luck from their facial features, but also looked at people's luck.
The invisible energy flowing in his body can be used to observe this person's misfortunes and blessings. So it is not surprising that he can see some things about him.
Taoist Lu frowned lightly and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Zhang Wen, the 68th generation disciple of the Maoshan Sect, listens to the order and receives the Yin Yang Mirror."
At this point, it was useless to say anything. It seemed that this master had to pass the position to him. Zhang Wen sighed, shook his head helplessly and took the Yin Yang Mirror.
Taoist Lu scolded angrily, "You brat, do you know the weight of the leader of the Maoshan Sect? How many people want to become a disciple of the Maoshan Sect but they can't do it. Now that you are the leader, are you so aggrieved?"
Zhang Wen said with a wry smile on his face, "Master, the problem is that the pressure is too great. How can my poor little shoulders hold it up?"
Taoist Lu sighed softly and said, "Actually, master doesn't want to pass the position of master to you so soon, but you also know that I am already one hundred and eight years old this year, and I have already calculated that my time is running out.
, I should go to see the Patriarch soon. As my master, I just hope that you can mature as soon as possible and take up the responsibility of the Maoshan Sect. Moreover, the position of leader is of no use to me now, and it will be the same if I pass it on to you.
"
"Master, you..." Taoist Lu's words made Zhang Wen feel uncomfortable for a while. Just as he was about to speak, Taoist Lu signaled to interrupt him.
"Silly boy, we academicians should have seen through life and death long ago. Death is not something to be afraid of. The reincarnation of life and death is a very common thing. Master has lived for more than a hundred years and has experienced everything.
Even if you die, it won’t be a pity. During this time, I will stay on the mountain to re-edit the inheritance you wrote down and the previous secrets of the Maoshan Sect into a book. If you have time, come to the mountain to see me."
Zhang Wen nodded sadly to express his understanding.
Daoshi Lu continued, "In fact, Master once had a disciple in his early years. Although his intelligence was not as good as yours, he was still pretty good. Later, due to family reasons, he immigrated to a foreign country with his father.
Our Maoshan sect is already underpopulated, if you meet him in the future, please bring him back into the Maoshan sect."
Seeing Zhang Wen nodding, he continued, "If you accept a disciple in the future, remember to find someone with good character and intelligence before you can accept him into the Maoshan sect. People with bad hearts can cause disasters a hundred times more than ordinary people. And
People with insufficient wisdom can only learn half a bucket of water in Maoshan Technique, and it is useless even if they learn it. It is better not to learn it, so as not to lose the face of our Maoshan Sect."
Daoshi Lu paused and continued, "Then let's do this for now. Your master is not dead yet, so you don't have to be so sad now. You can go back first, and come back to see the master when you have time."
After walking out of the Taoist temple, Zhang Wen took a look at the yin-yang mirror in his hand. At this time, he felt particularly speechless. The whole day today was like a dream, and he suddenly became the leader of the Maoshan Sect.
. In fact, he also saw that Taoist Lu would not leave Hexi so soon. However, Taoist Lu was indeed over a hundred years old, and he would not have much time left. As a disciple, he
No matter what, you have to follow his wishes.
