At night, it was rainy and chilly to the bones, but it was as warm as summer in a newly built greenhouse. A dozen people gathered around a stove, eating hot pot. The rare rabbit meat was tumbling in the boiling soup.
More fresh and tender, leaving people with endless aftertaste.
Due to the decrease in the number of residents in Shuntian Prefecture and the arrival of spring, various animals began to move around on a large scale. Zhao Xueer just rode a horse and got a few hares and chickens, which was just in time for everyone to improve their food. And these new little Taoist priests and
A sloppy Taoist has a certain virtue. He does not tolerate wine, meat, meat or fish, and his upper beam is not straight and his lower beam is crooked.
Zhao Quanzhong, who was busy sending messages to the little Taoist nun but received no response, coughed and raised the topic: "Sister Wei'er is coming back this time, isn't she going to leave?"
"I am the young master's maid, so of course I have to stay and take care of the young master. The young master is so kind to me, I..." Wei'er blushed a little.
"It's good to stay. Our boss is a rare good person, and sister Wei'er is a great beauty. They are a perfect match, both benevolent and righteous, don't you think?"
"Yes, if Sister Wei'er marries our boss in the future, we will be blessed." Zhao Quanren and Zhao Quanyi immediately agreed.
Of course, they have serious selfish motives for saying this. First of all, their stomachs have been sold by Wei'er's cooking skills, and more importantly, they want Mr. Wan to marry his sister-in-law quickly and stop competing with them.
Beauty, only in this way can they have the opportunity to extend their claws to these inexperienced little sisters around them.
"Brother San, don't talk nonsense. Wei'er is from a low background, how dare you expect to marry the young master." Wei'er was so anxious that his face turned red. He looked sideways at Wan Lei who still looked unconcerned. He couldn't help but feel a little sad, thinking that the young master
I don't like her.
Wan Lei didn't mean to look down on anyone, but he was surrounded by a sense of crisis and did not dare to talk about marriage, so as not to implicate others, so he always kept this kind of love between men and women in his heart. Ordinarily, Wei'er
She is also good-looking, has a smart appearance, and is very gentle and considerate. She is a good wife. However, she is a bit young and has not reached the age of marriage and childbirth, so it is a bit early to talk about marriage.
To be honest, Wan Lei's ideas in this regard have not gone out of date with the times. You know, the ancients emphasized having more children and having grandchildren early to enjoy happiness, so children aged 13 or 14 would follow their parents' orders to be a matchmaker, like
A man like him who hasn't even started a family in his 23s or 40s can be considered an old bachelor.
The seventeen-year-old Wei'er is about to become an old maid, so she is more anxious to find a good man to marry, and Master Wan is a good man who can be entrusted to her for life. However, Master Wan looks stupid, and she is a woman.
At the child's house, other than hurting and pitying himself, there is no way to express his feelings.
Wan Lei saw that the atmosphere was a bit gloomy, and felt that he had almost eaten, so he found an excuse to leave. Just after the boss left, the three Zhao brothers, who had been charging "Si Miao" sister, finally dared to go over and follow her under the leadership of Zhao Quanzhong.
The opponent got close, but Sister Simiao ignored them. They brought trouble on themselves, and in the end they had to retreat voluntarily.
Although they are not favored by Sister Simiao, the three Zhao brothers have no worries about not having a wife, because there are more women than men in Beiping, and they are very popular because of their status as Mr. Wan's "family". However,
, as their "worth" rises, so does their horizons, so they are spoiled for choice.
After sending away the lazy Zhao brothers, only the sloppy Taoist priest and his seven young disciples were left in the tent. The sloppy Taoist priest, who had been meditating for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes, glanced around his disciples, and asked:
"What kind of person do you think Wan layman is, can he achieve great things?"
"Wanju has righteousness in his body, but he does not have a domineering look on his face. He is kind-hearted, but he may not have great ambitions or the spirit of a king." The oldest man said this wisely.
"What Senior Sister Yu said is true. This person has no big ambitions, just like a sparrow. He occupies a place in Peiping, but he doesn't think about making progress. He shows benefit to the people, but he doesn't control authority. He is as small as Zhang Shicheng and others, and it will be difficult to achieve it in the end.
Great weapon." Miao Zheng also said.
"Yes, what Senior Sister said is true." All the disciples nodded in agreement, only Miao Yi and Zhao Xue'er remained silent.
"Yier, what do you think?" The sloppy Taoist priest asked Miaoyi. Of course, he knew that although Zhao Xueer often quarreled with Wan Lei, his heart was still towards Wan Lei, so there was no need to ask. Miaoyi was the youngest, only ten years old.
At the age of three, he actually didn't follow the other senior sisters and follow everyone else's advice. He must have unique insights.
"This person has no great ambitions on his face, but he must have a big plan in his heart." Miao Yi said seriously. This serious look was incompatible with that childish face.
"Why do you see it?" A flash of joy flashed across the face of the sloppy Taoist priest, but he still asked expressionlessly.
"The inner sage and the outer king have deep inner strength, but externalize the authority. Although their words are true, they still miss the point of tranquility and softness. The inner king and the outer sage hide their strength and show their weakness, hide their strength and conceal their wisdom, know the male and guard the female, and their virtues are as high as the emptiness.
, As the saying goes, the sharp weapon of the country should not be shown to others! This person is virtuous and kind to the people, and he has followed others. This is the way of the inner king and the outer sage. In the future, he will become the sharp weapon of the country."
"Miaozhi really has a clear vision, and his years of teaching as a teacher are not in vain." The sloppy Taoist was very happy and said to his disciple: "The way of Wangba is not to imitate the ancient methods of the ancestors, but to be flexible. The so-called poverty leads to change, and change leads to change.
If you have good communication, it will last for a long time. This boy is good at the way of adapting. God has blessed him with good luck and good luck, and he will definitely be a promising person. In the future, if you stay by his side, you should learn from him humbly and do not live up to your expectations as a teacher."
"Yes." The master said so. Of course the disciple did not dare to say more, but Wan Yu asked without worry: "Master, are you going to leave this place and travel far away again?"
"As a teacher, I shouldn't care about worldly things. It's just that my Taoism is weak. I'm worried about the decline of Taoism, so I don't dare to slack off for half a day. After you settle down, I will travel around the world and spend many lives.
If you are destined, please enlighten me and teach me."
"It is the disciple's incompetence to make Master worry so much." Zhao Xueer frowned, while the others also bowed their heads in silence.
As Taoist disciples, they all know that more than a hundred years ago, under the auspices of the Mongolian rulers, there were two major debates between Buddhism and Taoism.
Seven Taoist priests were forced to become monks, Quanzhen's "Tao Zang" was burned, more than 200 Taoist temples were converted into Buddhist temples, and Quanzhen Sect, a branch of Taoism, collapsed from then on.
In the Ming Dynasty, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang revoked the title of Celestial Master of Zhengyi Sect Zhang Yuchu. After Emperor Jianwen succeeded to the throne, he also deprived Zhang Celestial Master of his original title of Zhengyi Master. The most important branch of Taoism - Zhengyi Sect.
The whole religion is in ruins.
As the two pillars of Taoism, the Quanzhen one and two religions have declined one after another. It is no wonder that their master is so worried. They even know that the master has secretly supported the rebellion of King Yan in exchange for the revival of Taoism. However, King Yan was not blessed
, was beaten to death, and now he has to put his treasure on the person who beat King Yan to death. As for whether he can succeed in the future, he can only do his best and obey fate.
While everyone was frowning and thinking deeply, the cold wind opened the tent, the cold moonlight fell into the tent, and the spring was coming...
