It was already dusk when the Zhai Zhan Conference ended. The Quanzhen Seventh Son and Lin Qingxuan returned to the main hall of Chongyang Palace to rest. The seven futons that had been placed in the hall for more than ten years had now become eight.
After the eight disciples of Quanzhen sat down, Ma Yu and others also regarded Lin Qingxuan as their brother. First, they briefly described the development of Quanzhen sect in various provinces over the years, and then Liu Chuxuan asked: "Junior Brother Lin, if you want
To practice Taoism on the mountain, just choose a side hall or a side courtyard in the back mountain. If you open a Taoist temple outside, how about you and me selecting some disciples to accompany you?"
After Lin Qingxuan expressed his thanks, he said: "I'd better stay in Zixiao Palace in Wudang Mountain. I'm used to living there."
Ma Yu nodded and said: "That's fine. I have transferred Zhitang back. From now on, Wudang Mountain will be Qingxuanzi's dojo. I will ask you to come in and see me later on from Jingnan South Road. Junior Brother Lin, you can also give me any instructions if you have anything."
They do it.”
Lin Qingxuan bowed to thank him, and then said: "Brothers and sisters, I heard that next year will be the second time for the Huashan Sword Competition. I think it is the first time that our master has won the title of No. 1 in the world. This time
Secondly, Brother Zhou’s nature would not allow him to not join in the fun.
However, Brother Zhou calls himself an old naughty boy. He is not doing it for fame and wealth, he is just watching the fun. But we disciples must wave the flag and make preparations. After all, there will be Xidu Ouyang Feng who will be discussing swordsmanship in Huashan Mountain!
"
The faces of the Seven Quanzhen disciples changed when they heard this. They were obviously frightened by the thought of Xidu's methods. Qiu Chuji sneered and said: "Although Xidu is powerful, our uncle taught us the Kongming Fist and two-hand fighting. When we form a formation, we will be sure
If I can defeat him, even if he has helpers, our junior brother Lin's martial arts is far superior to mine, so what should we be afraid of?"
All the Taoists agreed, and Ma Yu also said: "In that case, the seven of us don't have to go back to the Taoist temple this year. We all go to Qingxu Cave to practice in seclusion. It happens that we have just learned the two most excellent mysterious skills taught by our uncle.
By next year my skills will definitely increase greatly."
Knowing that next year's sword debate in Huashan will affect the honor and disgrace of our sect, the other six disciples also solemnly agreed and extended an invitation to Lin Qingxuan.
Lin Qingxuan had already finished everything at this time. He just wanted to return to Wudang Mountain to practice peacefully and take the precious medicine. Although retreating in Zhongnan Mountain was effective, it was still not as fast as taking medicine to enter the country, so he declined in a few words.
Although he refused, Lin Qingxuan felt a little sorry when he saw that the seven senior brothers and sisters treated him sincerely. He thought for a moment and said: "Brothers, when I was thinking about my sect's Tiangang Beidou Formation these past few days, I suddenly had a whim. I thought that if my mentor had been
Old diseases can be cured, and after practicing till now, not only has my magical skills become unparalleled, but my own martial arts will also be able to shine. I don’t know how many profound things he can create in the past twenty-four years.
It’s an incredible and exquisite martial arts.”
When Lin Qingxuan said this, the Seventh Son all agreed in their hearts. After all, Master Zhou has been able to create two of the best martial arts in more than ten years. If his master was still alive, his martial arts would be even better than before, and it would not be surprising to see how many magical arts he created.
Lin Qingxuan saw that everyone was aroused by him, so he reminded: "So I think the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation is a secret method that my master left to his seven brothers and sisters to protect him when he knew that he would die soon. In times of crisis, the seven can form an formation."
He competed with Xidu Ouyang Feng, but I think if the old man can live a few more years, he may not be able to create the martial arts of Tiangang Beidou Formation into a supreme magical skill that can be used by one person. When the seven people use it, it will be as good as seven
He is a master of the Five Ultimate Skills, who in the world can resist him when the time comes?"
Lin Qingxuan's conjecture made the Seven Quanzhen disciples fall into deep thought. They felt that it was not wrong at all. Qiu Chuji, who had the highest martial arts, even laughed and said: "Junior Brother Lin is indeed the successor of Master Zhou's most recognized teacher. I have also thought about your idea.
However, our martial arts cultivation is insufficient, and it is impossible for our mentor to come back from the dead, so this conjecture may not come true."
Lin Qingxuan smiled slightly and said: "Although our talents are not as good as those of our mentor, if we change the direction and the seven of you slightly change the method of Tiangang Beidou Formation and use your skills to create and attack the enemy, I am afraid that it will not be possible."
Is it difficult?
At that time, every move will concentrate the strength of the seven people at one point, which can increase the power of the Tiangang Beidou Formation several times."
After listening to Lin Qingxuan's words, the Seven Sons all fell into deep thought. The Big Dipper in the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation corresponds to the Big Dipper. According to Taoist legend, the Big Dipper is in charge of life, death, fortune, longevity, and disaster relief. It is also an important part of Northern Xuanwu and a cultural element.
It is extremely heavy and can understand the supreme wisdom from it. Therefore, the Chongyang Patriarch was proficient in martial arts and created the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation based on the laws of the Big Dipper. The Quanzhen Seven Sons have been practicing martial arts for many years. After listening to Lin Qingxuan's words, they all felt that it was impossible.
reason.
Lin Qingxuan knew that twenty years after the original event line developed, the five remaining Quanzhen disciples had developed the "Seven Star Gathering" in retreat to deal with the Jade Girl's Heart Sutra who had restrained their own martial arts.
The Kung Fu method was born out of the Tiangang Beidou Formation.
What Lin Qingxuan was talking about at this time was just the martial arts that the Quanzhen Seventh Son would be able to master twenty years later. However, with the current martial arts cultivation and realm of the Seventh Son, there is still a lot of fire left to create the Seven Stars Gathering.
But Lin Qingxuan wanted to help, so he smiled and said: "Brother and sister, don't worry, I'm not just talking nonsense. When I got the Xuan Gong written by the ancestor, I came across a book called 'Beidou Dafa' written by the ancestor. This is the best way to practice."
The basic method of Kung Fu corresponds to the stars at the top and the My Complete Heart Method at the bottom.
I want to pass it on to my seven brothers and sisters on behalf of my mentor. After you practice this secret method, you will definitely be able to create the martial arts we just guessed."
After Lin Qingxuan finished speaking, he talked about Beidou Dafa, which was involved in the chapters of the Jiuyin Manual of Changing the Muscles and Strengthening the Bones and the Healing Chapter. When the Seventh Master heard it, they knew it was the true biography of Taoism, and after a little thought, they knew that it was indeed consistent with the Beidou Formation of their own Tiangang.
, everyone was overjoyed.
When Lin Qingxuan finished explaining the teachings of Beidou Dafa, the Seven Quanzhen disciples immediately started to practice according to the law, and after a while they felt that it was quite beneficial.
Qiu Chuji, who has the highest level of martial arts, thought: "With the help of the Beidou Dafa taught by Junior Brother Lin, I already have the principle in my mind to turn the formation into a combined martial arts method, but it is difficult to form it in a hurry. I am afraid that I really have to fight with my senior brother
We retreat and study hard.”
Ma Yu and others were delighted when they heard this, and immediately called their disciples to give instructions, and the seven of them went to the Qingxu Cave behind the Chongyang Palace for retreat.
After Lin Qingxuan sent his seven sons into the cave, he gave instructions to Zhao Zhijing, and Yin Zhiping and his disciples were attentive to their service. He himself went to see Sun Desheng, planning to invite him to enjoy the blessings in Zixiao Palace with him.
Although Sun Desheng was very happy that Lin Qingxuan had distinguished himself and became the eighth real person of the Quanzhen Sect, he had lived in Chongyang Palace for many years and was unwilling to leave for a while.
Finally, after Lin Qingxuan's hard persuasion, Sun Desheng agreed to wait until next year to settle everything and train a successor for the fire house's back cook before going to Zixiao Palace to keep Lin Qingxuan company.
Lin Qingxuan knew that Senior Brother Sun had feelings for Chongyang Palace and other Taoist Taoists who had close relationships with Huo Gong. It was normal for him to be reluctant to let go for a while, so he promised: "Senior brother, don't worry. Wait until next year when you will bring Mingchun, Wuyang and others together."
It’s okay to take them to the Zixiao Palace. After our Zixiao Palace is renovated, it will not be much smaller than the Chongyang Palace. How about letting them each be the masters of their own palaces and enjoy peace and happiness?"
After hearing this, Sun Desheng smiled, pulled Lin Qingxuan and said, "I feel relieved because of your words. Originally, I was worried that you would forget your old friend when you become successful, so that's fine."
Lin Qingxuan chuckled and said: "Senior brother, what are you talking about? If I have practiced hard for so many years, wouldn't I have cultivated it on a dog? Don't worry, I, Lin Qingxuan, will be your Sun Desheng's brother for a long time. From now on, Zixiao Palace
I have to count on you to take care of it for me."
Sun Desheng felt warm after hearing this. He took Lin Qingxuan to the kitchen and cooked some stir-fries himself to eat and drink with Lin Qingxuan. However, now that Lin Qingxuan is the second generation Taoist disciple, he cannot eat meat or vegetables.
I had to drink some fruit wine to accompany the conversation.
Lin Qingxuan stayed with Sun Desheng in the Chongyang Palace for a few days. Seeing that Ma Yu and the other seven Quanzhen disciples were in seclusion in Qingxu Cave to create the "Seven Star Gathering" and it was not as if they could get out of seclusion in ten and a half months, he left a letter to him.
Zhao Zhijing said goodbye directly to Sun Desheng and prepared to leave.
Nowadays, Lin Qingxuan's status is extraordinary. All the seven Quanzhen disciples are in seclusion. Zhou Botong went to Tiezhang Peak to collect Qiu Qianren. At this time, Lin Qingxuan was respected in the Chongyang Palace. Therefore, Zhao Zhijing often knelt down to ask Lin Qingxuan for important matters.
Legal purpose.
Lin Qingxuan didn't like worldly affairs at all, and he left without making any big fanfare. However, Zhao Zhijing received the letter from Master Qingxuan and asked him to manage the affairs of the palace. How dare he neglect his uncle, so he summoned the remaining members of the palace.
The hundred or so true disciples who went there escorted Lin Qingxuan all the way to Puguang Temple. The abbot of Puguang Temple, Monk Mingyun, came out to greet him.
After talking to everyone for a long time and accepting the dozens of taels of money presented by Zhao Zhijing and Guo Zhirui, Lin Qingxuan waved his hand and said: "You don't need to give it away anymore, I'm just a poor man!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qingxuan walked away and headed south. He looked like he was not walking very fast, but after only seven or eight steps, he walked out a few feet away. Disciples Zhao Zhijing, Yin Zhiping and others knelt down and saluted, and said in unison: "Disciples send you respectful greetings to Master Qingxuan.
"
More than a hundred Taoist priests knelt together on the mountain road, and more than twenty monks knelt on the ground in front of the temple. After a while, everyone got up and returned to the mountain after knowing that Lin Qingxuan's back could no longer be seen in front of them.
Zhao Zhijing didn't care, but Lu Zhitang, Yin Zhiping, Cui Zhifang, Zhang Zhiguang, Shen Zhifan, and Wang Zhitan were always grateful for Lin Qingxuan's great kindness in saving their lives from Mei Chaofeng, and they stood there reluctantly for a while.
Then we returned to the mountain hand in hand.
Lin Qingxuan, the master of the Quanzhen Sect's Wudang Zixiao Palace, came down from the Chongyang Palace in Zhongnan Mountain to return home on September 15th. He first went to the barren valley to collect snake gall and other medicinal materials before returning to the Zixiao Palace. Because he used Qinggong throughout the process,
It was only September 19th when I returned to Zixiao Palace.
Taoist Jingci, eight other Taoists, and the newly recruited Taoist priests all came to Lin Qingxuan's room to kowtow. They had long known that Taoist Master Qingxuan would be worshiping the Patriarch of Chongyang in the Chongyang Palace in September and becoming Quanzhen.
The younger brother of Qizi will no longer be a little deacon Taoist, but another real person of the Quanzhen Sect.
However, Taoist Jingci and others did not expect that Lin Qingxuan would come back after becoming a real person. At this time, they were all surprised when they kowtowed.
Lin Qingxuan helped all the Taoists up one by one, and Taoist Jingci respectfully introduced the newly recruited Taoists and Taoist boys to Lin Qingxuan.
After a while, they all got to know each other, and Lin Qingxuan said: "Brother, the head master, has transferred Lu Zhitang back to Zhongnan Mountain because he has another appointment. From now on, I will be the head of Zixiao Palace, and this Wudang Mountain will be my dojo."
Taoist Jingci was overjoyed when he heard this. He knelt down and kowtowed: "Master Qingxuan has profound cultivation. Wudang Mountain is a perfect place to be your dojo. This disciple is very happy..."
Taoist Jingci kept saying auspicious words one after another. Lin Qingxuan couldn't help but feel happy when he heard it. He waved his hand and said: "Jingci, please stop talking nonsense. But I have seen everything you did before. Now I am a poor Taoist."
You are a second-generation disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, so giving you the title of a third-generation disciple is not a shame, are you willing?"
Taoist Master Jingci was overjoyed when he heard this. He knelt down and kowtowed and said, "My disciple is willing. I have recognized him as your disciple in my heart since you gave me the medical scriptures. Disciple Jingci pays homage to my mentor."
Lin Qingxuan personally pulled him up and said with a smile: "Now the three generations of disciples are all Zhici generations. Your Dharma name will not change. The name of our sect will be Zhici."
Taoist Master Jingci said happily: "Thank you so much, Master, for giving me the name. From now on, my disciple will also be the third generation true successor of my Quanzhen Sect."
Lin Qingxuan smiled and nodded, and said: "I see that all the main halls have been repaired, but the incense is getting stronger. If you are tired, you might as well recruit some more Taoist boys."
Taoist Master Jingci bowed and said: "Disciple accepts the order. Master, I have an unkind request. I don't know whether I should say it or not?"
Lin Qingxuan asked: "What's the matter? But it doesn't matter."
Jingci pulled out two Taoist boys aged 14 or 15 from among the Taoists and said: "I saw these two children as clever, so I accepted them as my disciples. They had not yet become my mentor at that time. Now you have accepted me as my disciples.
, can these two children also join the ranks and gain a certain seniority?"
Jingci said that the two Taoist boys were clever, but they were very smart. Before Lin Qingxuan could say anything, they knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, shouting to pay homage to the master.
Lin Qingxuan gently flicked his sleeves, and the two boys were lifted up. Seeing all the Taoists, they were frightened. He knew that these people had no knowledge and were afraid that they would treat them as immortals, so he did not explain, and said: "We are the third generation disciples of the Quanzhen Sect.
They are all still young, even the eldest Liu Zhiyi is only twenty-seven years old, so there is no precedent for the three generations of disciples to accept disciples.
However, the seniority of the disciples below the third generation of our sect has been decided a long time ago. Originally, the fourth generation disciple should be a Qingzi generation, but because of conflicts with me and Senior Sister Sun, a pure San disciple, the headmaster brother has already classified the fourth generation disciple as a Qingzi generation.
The seniority has been changed to 'Xu', so these two children can be considered as the two disciples under you."
Taoist Jingci said: "Why don't you thank Master quickly?"
The two Taoist boys knelt down and kowtowed in thanks. Taoist Master Jingci asked: "Since these two children have entered Taoism today, please ask the teacher to give them the Dharma name."
Lin Qingxuan asked the names of the two Taoist boys and thought: "Since one of you is named Gong Gai and the other is Wu Gen, then they will be changed to Gong Xuge and Wu Xufa from now on."
The two little Taoist boys kowtowed their thanks again, and Lin Qingxuan stopped supporting him. He told Jingci to take care of the secular affairs and then went to the alchemy room to refine the medicine.
