Chapter 18: Banished Down the Mountain
A month later, Taoist Master Qingxuan returned to Qingcheng Mountain.
...
At night, in Taixu Hall, Bai Fu knelt down in front of Taoist Master Qingxuan and reported to his master all the recent events. Finally, he cried: "Master, my disciple has been framed, so please make the decision."
Taoist Master Qingxuan looked unhappy and said, "No matter whether He Xiao framed you or not. Let me ask you, have you done a fraud for him?"
Bai Fu lowered his head and said, "Yes."
Taoist Master Qingxuan then asked: "If you commit fraud, you will be disqualified. Do you know?"
Bai Fu sighed lightly: "Disciple knows."
Taoist Master Qingxuan said, "You are not in a position to disturb the mountain gate. According to the rules of the gate, you will be expelled from Qingcheng, do you know?"
Hearing this, Bai Fu's eyes blew fire, his lips tightly pursed, and said nothing.
Master Qingxuan said: "Do you feel dissatisfied?"
Bai Fu said angrily: "Master, I really don't accept it. It's clear that He Xiao designed to frame me!"
Taoist Master Qingxuan shouted, "Then I ask you, He Xiao has always had good friends with you, so why did he frame you?"
Bai Fu couldn't answer: "This?..."
Taoist Master Qingxuan's eyes turned cold: "Even if he is falsely accused, he can still complain to the Presbyterian Church normally. How can he make a big fuss about the Presbyterian Church or even disrespect Master Qingshi! Qingcheng's establishment has been a school for hundreds of years, and you are the only one who disobeys the commander! Taoist Master Qingya exiled you for a year, but it would be light. If I were there, I would expel you from Qingcheng forever!"
Although the master was angry, Bai Fu refused to admit his mistakes, and felt extremely distressed and wronged, and had nowhere to vent. He stubbornly knelt outside his master's door for a night, with a stubborn look on his face.
The next morning, the door of the house opened and Taoist Master Qingxuan walked out of the house. His anger had disappeared, and he stroked Bai Fu's head with pity and advised him: "Fu'er, you are pure in your heart, innocent and sincere, with extremely high talent. You use love to control the sword. Each sword comes from the heart, so the sword is faster than other disciples. But using love to control the sword, which consumes your mind and strength, and people will become overly sensitive and emotional. Once your emotions are frustrated, you will be dominated by the sword and escape into the devil's way. Remember.
You must be firm in your heart and remain as moving as a mountain. Life is ups and downs, ashamed of winning and losing, but ashamed of being moved. Master is not worried about your martial arts, but about your life, just like your swordsmanship, shines brightly when you are successful, and is obscure and dull when you are down." Speaking of this, Master Qingxuan looked at Bai Fu with compassion.
Bai Fu seemed to understand, but seemed to be even more confused.
Taoist Master Qingxuan looked at the ignorant Bai Fu and smiled again: "Fate does not appear, but it is everywhere. When you are desperate and helpless, facing the darkest moments in your life, remember your name. The 'Fu' hexagram is the small Qiankun hexagram among the sixty-four hexagrams, one Yuan Fu, everything is new. It's endless. There is always vitality and always turning around! Forget it, just say. I want you to comprehend, but I am destined to have an extraordinary destiny. Everything goes with the flow, and this place is my hometown. Go down the mountain!"
Bai Fudongdong kowtowed three times, without saying a word, turned his head and left. He still couldn't let go of being chased down the mountain. He went back to the house to pack his luggage, stared silently, and shed tears with no one...
After packing up, he walked out of the house and listened to the gongs and drums in the distance, and the crowds were rumbling. Bai Fu was curious and grabbed the disciples who were coming and going and asked, "Junior Sister Joe, why is it so lively in front of you?"
Jiang Hehe was quite embarrassed and said, "Report to Senior Brother, Senior Brother Qin and his friends went into Xuantian Cave to retreat today, and the junior brothers danced dragons and flew away."
Bai Fu Daili was on the spot and smiled bitterly: "Oh, that should be lively."
At this moment, Yang Yichan stood quietly beside Jiang Hehe. She also heard about Bai Fu's experience, but she was not familiar with Bai Fu, so she couldn't comfort her. Bai Fu in front of her did not have the elegance and pride of the past. On her pale and powerless face, her eyes were empty and confused.
Yichan felt pity, as if she was in sorrow with this person. She mustered up the courage to go forward and whispered: "Senior Brother Fu, don't be sad, you will all pass." Bai Fu felt grateful and bowed to the two of them.
Bai Fu returned to the house silently, feeling miserable in his heart, and went down the mountain with anger. The pine waves were bleak, and the crows were urging, and a lonely figure limped down the long stone steps of Qingcheng Mountain...
The morning starts to fight for the behead, and the guest walks to the hometown.
The sound of chickens is the moon in the hut, and the frost of people is on the hut.
Oak leaves fall on the mountain road, and citrus flowers bloom on the post wall.
Because I was thinking about Du Ling’s dream, ducks and geese returned to the pond.
Priest Qingya, the supervisor of Taoist Qingya, left, and felt uncomfortable. He couldn't help but come to Taoist Qingxuan's courtyard. After seeing Taoist Qingxuan, he sighed: "Sect Master, I did check the whole story clearly that day's punishment. But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that He Xiao said had many doubts. Although Bai Fu was young and reckless, he would not point to Senior Brother Qingshi for no reason. I expelled Bai Fu from the mountain gate for a year, and I'm afraid the punishment was too heavy. Please ask the head to punish him."
Taoist Master Qingxuan also sighed: "I have considered my junior brother's opinion. But no matter whether He Xiao's words are true or not, I asked Fu'er, and he confessed to the fraud. In addition, he made a big fuss on Songhe Hall, and it was not wrong to expel him from the mountain gate for a year according to the rules of the sect."
Taoist Priest Qingya said regretfully: "But it's a pity that I missed the Seven-Star Sword Formation because of this!"
Taoist Master Qingxuan put down his teacup, looked into the distance, and slowly said, "Difficult and hardship will lead to success. Throughout history, the situation of life-and-death life, coupled with the ups and downs of fate, can we cultivate the talent of the world. The practice of Xuantian Cave may allow Fu'er to go to the next level of martial arts, but only blood and fire can give him the intuition of being unparalleled, develop the demeanor of having thunder in his chest and a flat lake, and have the wisdom to face the storm and turn danger into a barbaric power!"
Priest Qingya then let go and drank the tea in the cup: "What the leader said is very true. It seems that I am too worried. Bai Fu, Bai Fu, you may understand your master's painstaking efforts!"
