Chapter 16 Forming a Taoist Companion and Sharing Longevity
After about a cup of hot tea, the little Taoist priest led Yin Kexi into the main hall.
Yin Kexi bowed respectfully and clasped his fists in salute, then smiled and said: "This junior has followed the wishes of the eight masters and buried the bodies of the Iron Palm Gang members. The local government officials have restrained the Jin army. I have a lot of money left.
Some compensation was given to the tea shop owner, I wonder if the seniors would be satisfied with this?"
Even though Yin Kexi said this, it was obvious that what he did was impeccable, and the Quanzhen Bazi also knew that he would never dare to deceive him, so Ma Yu thanked him and then asked: "I wonder how much money Mr. Yin advanced? Pindao?"
Just let someone bring it."
Yin Kexi bowed deeply and said: "This junior also comes from a family that worships Buddha and worships Taoism. It's just eight or nine taels of scattered silver. It's time to offer it to the Taoist ancestors. If the real person insists on giving it, then he will not be allowed to believe in the ancestor Tianzun in Quanzhen Sect."
When Yin Kexi said this, Ma Yu was inconvenient to say anything more and ordered: "Lingyu boy, serve tea to the distinguished guests."
The Taoist boy bowed and agreed and walked out. Liu Chuxuan made a false move with his right hand. Yin Kexi sat down on a futon in front of Bazi, and then said with a smile: "Dear gentlemen, I have been doing business in Bianliang, Chang'an, Taiyuan and other places for a long time.
, although it mainly sells jewelry and curios, it has also participated in many other businesses.
This year, the Huashan Sword Forum is the most important event for the prominent people in our world. Since you, Master Qingxuan, have won the first place, beating out big names such as the owner of Peach Blossom Island in the East China Sea and the leader of the Beggar Gang, Hong Gang, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the Quanzhen Sect will definitely become the center of martial arts in the Central Plains.
The Taishan Beidou, the jade pillar supporting the sky..."
Yin Kexi is indeed a businessman. When he praised Lin Qingxuan and the Quanzhen Sect, he did not seem blunt at all. No matter how disgusting the words were, he could pretend to be said by others. However, within a moment, most of the eight Quanzhen disciples were happy in their hearts and looked at him.
We are getting closer and closer.
Lingyu Tong'er and several other Taoist boys brought in several tea trays and offered a cup of fragrant tea to Yin Kexi and Lin Qingxuan.
Yin Kexi is good at speaking, and because what he says is true but he is very particular about the words he uses, he is able to gain more trust from people.
However, among the eight disciples of Quanzhen, Ma Yu and Lin Qingxuan have the highest Taoist cultivation, which is how Yin Kexi praised them, but they are always awake.
Seeing that Yin Kexi was going to say something more about boasting about Quanzhen's martial arts, Lin Qingxuan interrupted with a slight cough and said: "Mr. Yin, if you have anything to do, it's okay to say it. I teach Xuanhu to save the world and save people. If
If you are in trouble, we can come up with ideas for you."
Yin Kexi hurriedly knelt down and said: "This junior has no difficulty, I'm just willing to become a disciple of the Eight Immortals. In the future, our Quanzhen family will have a great career, and we can help take care of any business dealings and worldly affairs."
, I just don’t know the attitude of the eight real people, so I don’t dare to spit it out for a while.”
After hearing Yin Kexi's words, the Quanzhen Seven Sons already agreed in their hearts, but they just thought that they needed to investigate this person further. If he was innocent and had never done any evil, he could be included.
Lin Qingxuan remembered that Yin Kexi became a martial arts expert hired by Kublai Khan more than ten years later. He followed Jinlun Guoshi and others to disrupt the martial arts in the Central Plains and made great contributions to Mongolia's march south. He knew that he was just a Persian, so there was no need to worry about it.
Song Jinzhong.
At present, Yin Kexi has not yet accomplished his martial arts, and he is determined to join the Quanzhen Sect. If he can be guided and regulated in the future, he may not be unable to return to the right path. Thinking of this, Lin Qingxuan first said: "You also have a living in Chang'an, so go back first, I'll Quanzhen."
The religion is an authentic Taoist sect, and it is very strict in accepting disciples. If you have not committed any crime, please discuss this matter again."
Yin Kexi knew in his heart that it would not be easy to monopolize the secular business of Quanzhen Sect. Seeing that the eight masters did not easily agree, he felt at ease and bowed before slowly retreating out.
After Yin Kexi left, the Quanzhen Seven Disciples discussed for a moment whether he could be used to manage cargo stations, trading houses and other business transactions in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan and other places. Finally, they called Yin Zhiping, Li Zhichang, Lu Zhitang and other capable disciples and ordered them to go to Bian.
Liang, Taiyuan and other places investigated Yin Kexi's reputation as a person, and decided that as long as the investigation results showed that his family background was innocent at this time, he was truly dedicated to the Tao, and he was proficient in financial management, he could be accepted as a disciple of the lower court and manage the secular affairs of the business at the foot of the mountain.
After half an hour, everything was agreed upon, and the Eighth Prince dismissed the meeting and went back to rest and do their homework.
Lin Qingxuan returned to his residence and ordered the waiting boy Lingyun to boil water and take a bath. Then he put on a brand new apricot yellow Taoist robe, combed and tied his hair, and put on a Hunyuan scarf. He took nothing and left Chongyang Palace empty-handed.
After only a short walk, they arrived at the entrance of the ancient tomb. Lin Qingxuan got a little lucky and said loudly: "Senior from the ancient tomb, Grandma Sun, Mo Chou, the sword debate in Huashan has fulfilled its mission. Lin Qingxuan came to pay homage!"
Lin Qingxuan's voice was not loud, but it was clearly sent into the ancient tomb, and it vibrated and echoed in the tomb passage.
After a while, the clothes at the entrance of the tomb flashed, and in front of Lin Qingxuan stood four women, an old man, a middle-aged man, a young man and a young man.
The old woman had an ugly face, but her eyes were full of kindness when she looked at Lin Qingxuan. The middle-aged woman with a beautiful face was very cold, and the girl next to her had a curious look on her face.
The girl who came out at the end was the most beautiful, with slightly red cheeks and flashing eyes. She rushed to Lin Qingxuan and asked urgently: "Brother Lin, you... did you really do it? Become the best in the world!"
Lin Qingxuan smiled and nodded, and Li Mochou suddenly threw herself into his arms. Her eyes turned red, and she burst into tears. She murmured: "I knew you could do it..."
Grandma Sun kept wiping her eyes and looked sideways at the young lady. She saw that although she had a cold face, she kept blinking. She knew in her heart that she would always be like this when she was feeling grateful. If it weren't for the fact that the Jade Girl's Heart Sutra has become more and more deserted in recent years, I'm afraid
Crying harder than myself.
Seeing the young lady like this, Grandma Sun breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing that she would no longer stop Miss Mochou, she stepped forward and said with a smile: "Qingxuan, you are really good. In more than five years, you have gone from a pyrotechnicist to a martial arts practitioner."
Master Qingxuan, the best in the world, I think you are much better than your Master Chongyang."
Lin Qingxuan let go of Li Mochou, bowed to Granny Sun and the head of the ancient tomb, and then said: "This junior has fulfilled his promise. Now he is the best in martial arts in the world. I am here to greet Mochou. I hope the two seniors will agree."
Granny Sun was naturally very willing. In her heart, Lin Qingxuan was almost as good as her own son. She hurriedly turned to look at the young lady and begged in a low voice: "It's not easy for these two children. Qingxuan can survive for several years just for Mo Chou."
What kind of perseverance and determination does it take to reach the level of martial arts like Wang Chongyang? Isn't it just God's will?"
The head of the ancient tomb saw Granny Sun's expression of concern and Li Mochou's eyes full of pleading. He lowered his head to look at his little daughter beside his legs. Seeing that her eyes were also red, he became very curious and asked: "Long'er, are you crying?"
What?"
Long Er pointed at Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou and said, "Master, I see that Senior Sister and this Lin family brother are together. My mother-in-law and Senior Sister are very happy. They cried and I cried too."
The head of the ancient tomb sighed softly: "I am crying when I am happy now, but I am afraid that I will cry when I am sad in the future..."
Long Er smiled slightly and said: "Isn't Brother Lin the best in the world in martial arts? What else in the world can trouble him? Senior Sister will only cry happily with him, not sadly."
Li Mochou glanced at her junior sister gratefully. The leader of the ancient tomb closed his eyes, waved his hands gently, and said: "Mochou, please go. Once you leave, you will no longer be my disciple of the ancient tomb, and there is no need to come back. Just
I hope you won’t regret it in your life…”
Li Mochou thought of her mentor's upbringing and teachings for more than ten years, and she burst into tears and said, "Master, don't you want me anymore?"
"Disciples of the ancient tomb are not allowed to go down the mountain for the rest of their lives. Now that you have found a man who is the best in martial arts in the world, I can't stop you from going down the mountain, but I am afraid that if you leave, you will not be as happy as you are in the ancient tomb..."
The leader of the ancient tomb spoke slowly, choked up at the end, turned around and waved his hand.
At this time, except for Lin Qingxuan, four women of different ages were all crying silently in front of the ancient tomb.
Lin Qingxuan took Li Mochou's little hand and knelt down to kowtow to the head of the ancient tomb and Granny Sun, and then said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, everyone, I, Lin Qingxuan, will definitely live up to Li Mochou in this life, regardless of Master, Granny Sun, Junior Sister Long
What do you think, we will still come to visit you in the future, after all, this is Mochou’s natal home."
Grandma Sun smiled and said, "Good boy."
After a while, Lin Qingxuan took Li Mochou's little hand and walked out of the pine forest. Li Mochou couldn't help but look back after taking a few steps. He sighed softly when he couldn't see his mentor.
Lin Qingxuan was reluctant to part with his mentor until Li Mochou, and said: "Sister Mochou, don't worry, we are very close, your master is my master. Back then, Chongyang Master and Lin Nvxia failed to get together, which resulted in
There is also a serious gap between the two factions. If you want to go back in the future, we can just treat it as a private family and go back to our parents' home to visit, okay?"
After hearing this, Li Mochou smiled slightly and said: "We all listen to you, but Lin Lang, where do you want to take me?"
Lin Qingxuan stopped and said: "Of course I will take you back to Chongyang Palace to meet my senior brothers and sisters. I am a Quanzhen Taoist priest. My sect has rules and regulations not to marry. However, the rules and regulations of the sect are dead. They are to help others practice. If morality is true,
If you have successfully cultivated and eliminated evil thoughts, you may not be unable to cultivate together with the Tao. That is a relationship that is closer than that of an ordinary couple.
If you don't care about your secular status, then you can join the Taoism first and become a Taoist couple with me. How about we go to Zixiao Palace to practice together?
If you really care, how about I change the sect's rules and marry you after I have made the Quanzhen Sect prosperous in a few years and become the real leader? It's just a formality. I'll do whatever you like."
Li Mochou did not respond to Lin Qingxuan's inquiry, but still looked at him quietly.
Lin Qingxuan pointed to the compass and said: "Sister Mochou, I have a Longevity Valley outside Xiangyang City. The Hualong Shengtian Powder refined from the elixir in it is the secret medicine of longevity. You and I can share it by taking it and practicing it."
With a lifespan of more than two hundred years, wouldn't it be the greatest joy in life to practice together like this and climb to the fairyland together?
Everything I say now is sincere and I don’t mean to deceive or deceive you. Do you agree or not?"
Seeing Lin Qingxuan's nervous expression, Li Mochou smiled and said: "The most dignified Master Qingxuan in the world, Youdao Quanzhen, how come he is always in a hurry? Hehe..."
Lin Qingxuan laughed and hugged Li Mochou, and whispered: "No matter how high my cultivation level is, I can only control my desires but not be ruthless. After all, only the great way can be ruthless. I am Qingxuan of the small way, and I am a sentimental person.
How to be ruthless? Haha."
"If stones, vegetation, and trees are heartless, what's the point of living like a stone? And being a sentient person is the true moral cultivation.
Lin Lang, I will do whatever you ask me to do. If you say you want to practice Taoism and seek immortality, I will also be a Taoist nun and accompany you.
I just ask you to always treat me well and never leave me, then I will be satisfied."
Li Mochou rested her head on Lin Qingxuan's shoulder and whispered: "You are already number one in the world, but I haven't even mastered the Jade Girl Heart Sutra. I feel that I am quite useless and can't help you. Lin Lang, don't you?"
Will you dislike me?"
Lin Qingxuan tightened his arms and felt the faint body fragrance of Li Mochou lingering on the tip of his nose. It was said that the body fragrance was actually a faint scent similar to chestnuts, and he said: "You have better qualifications than me. We are dual practitioners, and I
Let’s see you can catch up with me in a few years.”
Li Mochou had no social experience, and she didn't understand that it was almost impossible for even a genius to practice martial arts to Lin Qingxuan's level in five or six years.
Will the bastard Shi Potian appear again? No one at this age can only have this kind of skill and cultivation.
In Li Mochou's eyes, although Lin Qingxuan is almost perfect, he has become the best in the world in less than six years. He has to practice his martial arts to the level of his ancestor's mother-in-law in order not to feel inferior.
Now that he has no martial arts skills and is just a little girl in an ancient tomb, Lin Qingxuan is the master of Qingxuan who is the best in the world in martial arts, and is the senior teacher of the most powerful sect in the world. Li Mochou thinks about going to meet the Seventh Son of Quanzhen.
Some are heartbroken.
When Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou arrived in front of the Chongyang Palace, Li Mochou suddenly turned around and said: "Otherwise, I'd better go back to the ancient tomb. When I complete the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, my martial arts will be high enough to be worthy of you. When I get there,
Come again later to pay homage to the seven real people."
Lin Qingxuan knew that Li Mochou had a little girl's mentality of worrying about gains and losses, so he immediately hugged her tightly and comforted her softly. After talking for a moment and seeing her calm down, he said softly: "Mochou, what are you afraid of? Although I am a junior, but
I am the best in martial arts in the Quanzhen sect. According to the secular hierarchy, Brother Zhou Botong and I are brothers. The seven of them have to call you aunt. What are you afraid of?
Besides, they are all Taoist masters, and we are as close as brothers. You will like it when you meet..."
Li Mochou didn't know until now that Lin Qingxuan and the Quanzhen Seventh Son actually had such a relationship. After asking about it, he smiled and said: "It's a good thing that you have also entered Taoism to practice. If you are not the Quanzhen Eighth Son, they will meet
You really need to call me uncle."
The two of them entered the palace laughing and talking. The Taoist who was guarding the gate of Chongyang Palace and the disciple who was on duty in the front hall were stunned when they saw that Master Qingxuan of our sect came in with a woman as beautiful as a fairy.
He reacted quickly and hurriedly bowed and saluted, and then ran quickly to report to the master.
Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou walked slowly along the way. Everywhere they went, Lin Qingxuan explained to Li Mochou the conditions of the various halls of Chongyang Palace and the Taoist culture. After a while, they passed the three halls in a row, and Lin Qingxuan pointed to the side hall on the right.
Said: "This is the Sutra Pavilion and the Sanqing Pavilion. I have lived here for several years."
Li Mochou was very curious, so Lin Qingxuan took her there to visit. After walking around, Li Mochou saw nothing new, especially Lin Qingxuan's bedroom only had a bed and a quilt, which were as clean as his own ancient tomb.
The stone room was almost ready, so he smiled and said: "Lin Lang, you have nothing to do except practice every day. No wonder it is so clean. Then I don't need to take care of your daily life in the future."
Li Mochou only knew that men and women in the people at the foot of the mountain had to live together after they got married, and women had to look after their husbands, raise their children, and serve the whole family. Although she wanted to be a Taoist companion with Lin Qingxuan, it was just a name, and she had already regarded herself as one in her heart.
Lin Qingxuan's wife had already begun to think about how to take care of Lin Qingxuan's life.
After hearing Li Mochou's words, Lin Qingxuan lowered his head and saw that she had a tender look on her face. She was really like a little daughter-in-law. Her heart was full of tenderness. She smiled lightly and said: "You want to take care of my life, wait until we return to Zixiao."
I'll let you do whatever you want in the palace, but I'm afraid there are some things that you can't take care of, and I have to take care of them."
Li Mochou nodded at first, then her face turned red after a moment, and she snorted, "You mean to do things between husband and wife? I don't understand either. If you know more, you can teach me more."
Li Mochou has lived in ancient tombs for a long time and does not understand the ways of the world. She is even more ignorant about matters between men and women. Although she knows that it is a shy thing, she does not understand why.
But when Lin Qingxuan saw her blushing face and her eyes full of eyes, he couldn't help but think about it and said with a smile: "There will be many opportunities to teach you new knowledge slowly in the future."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Li Mochou certainly didn't understand. Lin Qingxuan's Taoist mind, which he had practiced for many years, was like a mirror, which made him realize that something was wrong. He hurriedly recited the Taoist scriptures silently to suppress the evil thoughts, and said in his heart: When the heart is born, all dharmas are born, and when the mind is destroyed, all dharmas are born.
Destroy...
If a man and a woman have sexual intercourse, that's it when they are husband and wife. When doing so, they should think like this, where should they stay, know how to do, and know how to stop. This is also the foundation of spiritual practice.
However, lustful and evil thoughts arising from seeing beautiful women in daily life will shake the Taoist foundation of the mind. Evil thoughts will come out at will, and the three flowers of energy, energy and spirit will be lost, which will eventually damage the Taoism. You need to pay attention to it at all times.
Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou were talking in the room, when suddenly the voice of the boy Lingyun came from outside the door: "Master Qingxuan, Master, please move to another courtyard with Miss Li."
Lin Qingxuan smiled slightly, knowing that Senior Brother Ma would want to see Mochou when he found out.
Looking down at Li Mochou, who seemed a little nervous, Lin Qingxuan smiled and said, "You don't have to restrain yourself, I will take care of everything."
Li Mochou nodded, then followed Lin Qingxuan step by step, left the room, and soon arrived at the back hall.
After entering the courtyard, he saw Zhao Zhijing and a dozen other true disciples bowing and saluting. Lin Qingxuan asked: "When did you come back? Have you investigated the situation clearly?"
Zhao Zhijing's attitude became more respectful and he said: "I just came back and reported the situation to Master Master. Those Iron Palm Gang members have been buried by a Hu man who paid for them... Master Lin, this disciple has offended many times in the past. Please
Please forgive me."
Lin Qingxuan gently waved his hand and said: "Your qualifications and understanding are pretty good, but your mind is not big enough and your mind is narrow. You should read more Taoist scriptures in the future and understand the principles. Otherwise, you will have a lot of knowledge but not understand the truth, and you will not be able to become a high-achieving person and be unable to take on the responsibility."
Great responsibility."
Zhao Zhijing respectfully agreed, and after Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou walked into the room, he glared at Lin Qingxuan's figure unconvinced, and thought to himself: It seems that Master Lin is really angry with me. He keeps his identity.
If you don't want to suppress me openly, just say that I am small-minded. If this comment spreads, sooner or later the third-generation chief will be in danger. Can the brothers still think highly of me?
Lin Qingxuan, you are so vicious... It's a pity that I am of low status and I can't help him... I just hope he can go back to Zixiao Palace as soon as possible...
Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou walked into the main room of the other courtyard and saw Ma Yu, Tan Chuduan, Liu Chuxuan, Qiu Chuji and other seven sons sitting on the futon, looking at them with smiles.
Lin Qingxuan introduced Li Mochou one by one. Mochou saluted politely and called him senior brother and senior sister.
After a while, the two of them took their seats, and Lin Qingxuan said: "Mochou is willing to follow me to Zixiao Palace to enter Taoism, so why not introduce her to Taoism today?"
The Seven Quanzhen Sons were overjoyed when they heard this, and then Ma Yu took the initiative to lead Li Mochou to worship the statue of the Chongyang Patriarch, and he was regarded as a Taoist disciple of Chongyang Master. Then the Quanzhen Seventh Sons, Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou regarded Taoist brothers and sisters as brothers and sisters.
Got the gift.
After a while, a little Taoist boy came in carrying a wooden tray, with a brand new apricot yellow Taoist robe and whisk etc. on it. Sun Buer pointed at the wooden tray and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Li, we are short of time and have no time to sew new clothes for you. This Taoist robe
It's my new one. I see that you and I have similar figures, but you are a little thinner, but you can still wear it, so don't dislike it."
Li Mochou smiled and saluted, and said: "Senior Sister Sun, you are very polite. We are the only female champions in Quanzhen Sect, you and I. We should try to get closer to each other in the future."
Sun Buer was quite happy when he heard this and said: "This is exactly the reason."
