After finishing the three bowls of steamed buns, Lao Dao led the donkey out of the small shop. Behind him, Mi Tou stared blankly at the backs of one person and one donkey, and suddenly sighed: "You have to eat my steamed buns again!"
The old Taoist seemed to have heard the long sigh behind him, waved his hands without looking back, and disappeared at the end of the alley, and then walked out of Xi'an City, riding a donkey and facing Zhongnan Mountain.
Zhongnan Mountain, Quanzhen Sect.
Quanzhen Sect has three ancestral homes, one is Yongle Palace, which is located in Longquan Village about three kilometers north of Ruicheng County, the other is Yanxia Cave in the north corner of Kunyu Mountain, and the rest is Chongyang in Zu'an Town, Zhongnan Mountain Longevity Palace.
In front of the gate of Chongyang Palace, there stood a man wearing coarse clothes with long hair tied casually behind his head. His face was exhausted from the vicissitudes of life, and there was also a trace of melancholy. The man's attire was strange, but the things in his hands were more Strange and weird, those are four ancient bronze lamps with candles burning.
Yu Qiuyang stood in front of the Chongyang Palace, and said loudly: "A Taoist priest in civilian clothes, please see Quanzhen Headmaster Xu Beili Xu Zhenren"
Although Yu Qiuyang did not speak loudly, but his tone was sonorous, straight through the Chongyang Palace. After a while, a middle-aged Taoist priest with a long beard, a felt hat, a Taoist robe and mille-soled cloth shoes led a few small paths out of the Chongyang Palace quickly. .
Xu Beili, the head teacher of this generation of the Quanzhen Sect, is the leading Dazheng of the Taishang Xuanmen orthodox sect.
Quanzhen Sect is very different from Maoshan, Longhushan, and Tianshi Sect. The Taoist priests in the whole religion must become monks and live in temples. At the beginning of the establishment of the Chongyang Patriarch, the monks had to live in a nunnery to practice. The way of life is not to pay attention to food and clothing, and not to join the world. To put it simply, it is to be a low-key person and do things low-key, so it is difficult for the outside world to see people from the Quanzhen sect walking around. For any foreign affairs, the reputation of Quanzhen Sect gradually faded over time, and few outsiders stepped into Zhongnanshan Quanzhen Sect.
Seeing Xu Beili walk out of the Chongyang Palace, Yu Qiuyang saluted first: "I have met Master Xu."
"Buddha of Immeasurable Life, fellow Taoist, you're being polite." Xu Beili flicked his whisk, and returned the salute with one hand in front of his chest.
Yu Qiuyang and Xu Beili looked at each other, and after looking at each other, the former smiled lightly and said, "Excuse me, Master Xu, the ancient well temple has been accompanied by Zhongnan Mountain for countless years, but the disciples of the past generations have never been to the Quanzhen Sect to see the ceremony, and I still hope Xu Don¡¯t be offended by real people, but I¡¯m really not sociable, we¡¯re tired and don¡¯t like to travel, and we only stick to that small hill, so I¡¯ve lost a lot of courtesy, forgive me, forgive me.¡±
Xu Beili said indifferently: "People outside Fang don't pay attention to etiquette. It's okay. Beili knew that there were friends from otherworldly circles nearby in Zhongnan Mountain, but he never went to bother him. Speaking of which, we are also a bit rude. Zhongnan Mountain is the world's leader. People's Zhongnan Mountain, everyone in the world can come here. It doesn't matter who is the host and who is the guest. Over the years, countless hermits in Zhongnan have regarded this place as their home and practiced here. Daoists are too polite, but the poor Taoist is really curious. What is the origin of the Taoist temple on the small hill in Houshan? Although I am curious, I have no intention of inquiring about it, but the fellow Taoist who came here today must be able to clear up Beili's confusion."
With a few simple words of courtesy, Yu Qiuyang was invited into the Chongyang Palace by Xu Beili, and the two sat on the ground casually. A pot of tea came up the path and then retreated. Xu Beili picked up the teapot and filled the two tea bowls in front of him, stretched out his hand He signaled: "Daoist friend, use tea"
"Beili Zhenren is polite." Yu Qiuyang leaned back again, reached out to pick up the tea bowl and drank it down, not caring whether the tea in the bowl was steaming into his throat or boiling hot.
"After some driving and busy work, I didn't even have time to take a sip of water. It's a bit abrupt." Yu Qiuyang put down the tea bowl and smiled happily.
Today's Yu Qiuyang has changed from his usual arrogant and domineering character. Seeing Xu Beili's gestures and gestures reveals a word of courtesy everywhere, if Xiang Que sees it, his jaw will drop in shock. My uncle said he was domineering, As for the arrogance that was agreed upon, anyone can change their temper, but he is the only one who can't change it. Yu Qiuyang, who entered the underworld with a sword, shouldn't be like this!
After Xu Beili added water to the tea bowl in front of him, he said: "Quanzhen disciples are not good at serving customers, and they pay attention to being free and casual. There is nothing else but a pot of tea to serve fellow Taoists. Naturally, it is enough. Please drink it."
Yu Qiuyang picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and then said: "If Master Beili went to the ancient well temple, I'm afraid the pot of tea will not be there for you, at most you can get some cold well water. In the past, there were so many big red robes. It's barely a shot, but in recent years, a prodigal kid like a cow has ruined all his drinking water. We hate it but we can't help it, but fortunately, no outsiders come to the door on weekdays. The valet becomes less important.¡±
Xu Beili also picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Then today, fellow daoist, I Quanzhen really want to come here, isn't it just a few words of politeness?"
Yu Qiuyang's complexion changed, and he said solemnly: "Shang Quanzhen, there is something to do.??I beg Xu Beili to be in charge"
"Speaking"
"Daoist friends, please look." Yu Qiuyang stretched out his right hand and pointed to the four soul lamps beside him. Xu Beili had seen these four ancient bronze lamps when he came earlier, and was quite surprised at that time, and even more surprised.
There are four candles floating on each of the four bronze solitary lamps. The red flames of the rear three seem to be quite high-spirited, but the color of the front one is a little yellowish, and the flames are slightly sluggish. After Xu Beili glanced at it, he raised his head and said, "Last year, one day, the vitality of all things in the sky above Zhongnan Mountain was pumped out, and it slowly gathered in the back mountain. Countless vitality rushed out, and it lasted for a long time"
Yu Qiuyang nodded and said: "There is a life and soul lamp that needs a huge vitality to keep the lamp alive."
Xu Beili pointed to the first ancient lamp and said, "Now this"
Yu Qiuyang said softly: "I'm here because I want to use Quanzhen's Big Dipper Array, and hope that Beili Daoist can make it happen."
Xu Beili withdrew his fingers and watched Yu Qiuyang silently. The Big Dipper Array of Quanzhen Sect is the foundation of Quanzhen Sect. The Seven Sons perfected it to protect the Quanzhen Sect for thousands of years. Yu Qiuyang's request made him a little embarrassed. It's like ordinary people visiting someone's house and telling the master that I want to sleep in your master bedroom for two days. Again, the request seemed too abrupt.
Seeing the hesitation on the other party's face, Yu Qiuyang was not in a hurry, and drank the tea slowly, not in a hurry, and his temper was a bit abnormal.
After a long time, Xu Beili sighed, and said, "As soon as Fellow Daoist came to the door, he created a big problem for Beili."
"There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as there is a caring heart, it is normal for fellow Taoists to have difficulties. After all, Qiuyang's request is a bit too much, but"
