The young Taoist priest straightened his face, looked at Zhao Qingshan and said: "The Taoist stipulations held by Brother Taoist are the old ultimatums of the past. Today, Taoists only recognize the new ultimatums. The standard for confirming the identity of the Taoist friends attending this Dharma conference is also based on the new ultimatums." Therefore, if Brother Dao¡¯s old certificate cannot be registered, he will naturally not be able to participate in the Dharma Assembly.¡±
Zhao Qingshan lowered his head and looked at his ultimatum, and then at the serious young Taoist priest. He had not walked around the world for more than five years. The changes in the world also made him a little baffled.
Looking at the young Taoist priest in front of him, Zhao Qingshan put away his old ultimatum and asked him: "I am in a hurry to go out this time, but I don't know what the new ultimatum my friend mentioned looks like?"
The young Taoist priest did not make things difficult for Zhao Qingshan. After smiling, he took out a beautifully shaped metal piece from the cloth bag he carried with him. It was actually dotted with gold and silver as decoration!
The entire document was as thin as a cicada's wings, but its flexibility was astonishing. Taking the new document from the hands of the young Taoist priest, Zhao Qingshan held it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, and his eyes immediately straightened.
This new ultimatum is about the size of an adult's palm. It is very thin but very tough. Its surface is dotted with auspicious clouds plated with gold and silver, and it also has the Taoist saying "The Great Way of Nature" written on it.
On this certificate, the birth date, lay name, Taoist Taoist name, temple and other information of the young Taoist priest in front of him were recorded in detail. The most important thing is that at the bottom of this information, there is also a line of ten The conspicuous text reads, "The ancestral home of Taoism is the Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain"!
turn out to be. This so-called new ultimatum actually means that the issuing unit has changed. For example, the so-called old ultimatum held in Zhao Qingshan's hand was certified by a religious personnel issued by the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.
Another example is those Taoist priests of the Quanzhen and Shenxiao sects. The certificates they hold are also verified and issued by the ancestral courts of their respective sects as proof of identity for these Taoist priests when they go out.
It¡¯s just that now the issue of issuance of ultimatums has been completely taken over by Longsu Mountain Qingyun Temple. From this point of view, Longsu Mountain Qingyun Temple¡¯s status as the ancestral Taoist family. Apparently it has been widely recognized.
Taking the certificate and turning it over several times in his hand, Zhao Qingshan returned it to the young Taoist priest in front of him and asked casually: "Is the certificate issued by Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain only to the Zhengyi sect?"
"Who told you?" The young Taoist priest took back his ultimatum. After hearing Zhao Qingshan's inquiry, he was inevitably stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said: "The status of the Taoist ancestral family of Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain is not limited to For the Zhengyi sect. Even the fellow Taoists of Quanzhen and Shenxiao have recognized the status of the ancestral court of Qingyun Temple."
"Oh" Zhao Qingshan nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that his efforts back then were not in vain. Even if there were inevitable stumblings in the process, at least he had reached this point!
The status of the Taoist ancestral home of Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain. Finally, he was no longer the self-proclaimed product he used to be. He felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart. Zhao Qingshan felt that he should take the time to go back to Longsu Mountain to take a good look at the current development of Qingyun Temple?
I saw Zhao Qingshan sitting there without saying a word after reading the ultimatum. The young Taoist priest also took it for granted that Zhao Qingshan did not have such a new ultimatum issued by Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain. At that moment, he said: "In this case, I can only apologize, Taoist brother, please do so."
"Fellow Taoist, please stay!" The young Taoist priest turned around and was about to leave, but Zhao Qingshan suddenly raised his hand to stop him, with a smile on his face. He said, "Look at my memory. I almost forgot about this new certificate not long after I got it."
With that said, Zhao Qingshan once again reached into the cloth bag beside him, and after pretending to fumble around, he took out a piece of metal that was exactly the same as the ultimatum in the hands of the young Taoist priest, except that the registration information had changed. piece.
Seeing Zhao Qingshan take out the new ultimatum, the young Taoist priest couldn't help but be a little surprised. But he still patiently took the certificate handed over by Zhao Qingshan, checked it over and over in his hand, and then said with a smile: "It turns out that Brother Dao is so humorous, why do you still tease Pindao when you have a new certificate? Brother Dao, please come with me."
Smoothly, the ultimatum transformed by Zhao Qingshan using magic was recognized by the young Taoist priest. He then led Zhao Qingshan to the other end of the street and said as he walked: "Brother Taoist, you really came in time. , the Dharma conference will start in two hours, Taoist brother came just in time."
As soon as Zhao Qingshan arrived in Bahun City, he saw many Taoist priests walking around on the street. He also heard the young Taoist priest mention the word "fa conference" many times from his mouth, and he became a little curious. He seemed to be casually Asked: "I wonder how many fellow Taoists will participate in this Dharma conference?"
"At present, there are more than 1,700 people." The young Taoist priest looked back at Zhao Qingshan and said, "But today is just a Dharma meeting."On the first day, the Dharma will last for seven days, and then other Taoist friends will arrive in Bahun City one after another. It is expected that the total number of people will exceed 3,000. "
A Dharma gathering with more than 3,000 people is considered a very large Dharma gathering, not to mention that these are just Taoist priests attending the meeting. If you add those ordinary believers, the number will only be even larger!
"So many?" Zhao Qingshan was stunned when he heard it. He recalled repeatedly in his mind which immortal god's birthday it was today, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find any immortal god who met the conditions.
Rather than pretending to understand, Zhao Qingshan asked straight to the point: "So, which immortal god's birthday is this Dharma Conference being held to celebrate?"
"" The young Taoist priest was walking in front and stopped immediately. He looked back at Zhao Qingshan in astonishment and said with disbelief: "Is it possible that fellow Taoist priests don't know?"
The expression and eyes of this young Taoist priest made Zhao Qingshan feel like "I am ignorant", but since he wanted to participate in their Dharma conference, he had to at least understand who they were celebrating, right? After calming down, Zhao Qingshan said: "I'm sorry, Pindao has been studying the Dao Zang Jing some time ago, and he has no news about the outside world"
"So that's it." The young Taoist priest nodded subconsciously, but then he frowned and asked with a strange look on his face: "Then why did you come to this Dharma conference?"
"Uh, um" Zhao Qingshan rolled his eyes and immediately replied: "When Pindao went out two days ago, he met an old friend. It was he who told Pindao that there was a Dharma assembly in Bahun City where he could see the world. Pindao didn't ask any questions and hurried over."
This explanation is as fucked up as you want, but the young Taoist priest nodded and did not ask further. Maybe he thought there was no need to investigate the reason why Zhao Qingshan came here?
He turned around and continued walking forward, saying without looking back: "No wonder you don't know that today's Dharma assembly is held for my Taoist master Qingchengzi. The sixth day of March is the birthday of Qingchengzi."
Zhao Qingshan, who was not far behind the young Taoist priest, almost staggered and fell down when he heard what he said! What? A birthday puja forfor me? !
It¡¯s fun now. Zhao Qingshan actually came to attend his birthday puja. If someone recognized him at the puja, it would really turn the world upside down!
But having said that, after being reminded by the young Taoist priest, Zhao Qingshan remembered that the sixth day of the third month of the lunar calendar was really his birthday. Usually he would celebrate it by eating some meat alone, but now it is better, it is a birthday, Someone has found a way for him
Fortunately, before Zhao Qingshan arrived in Bahang City, he had already modified the details of his face. Unless someone was familiar with him, it would be impossible for others to identify him!
Therefore, Zhao Qingshan also took matters into his own hands and asked with great interest: "It turns out that this is a birthday ceremony held for my Taoist master, Qingchengzi Zhenren. How can the scale be so large?"
"You don't know this, right?" The young Taoist priest turned back and glanced at Zhao Qingshan behind him, and said: "The scale here is not big yet. The largest one is Longsu Mountain Qingyun Temple By the way, you should You don¡¯t even know what day today is, right?¡±
"Uh." Zhao Qingshan was stunned for a moment and asked: "Isn't today the sixth day of March?"
The eyes of the young Taoist priest were full of admiration. He stopped and turned around, clasping his fists and bowing to Zhao Qingshan: "Brother Taoist's seriousness in studying Taoist scriptures is really admirable Today is not the sixth day of March, today is the second day of the third lunar month." The last day of the month.¡±
"" Zhao Qingshan was stunned and asked: "Then how could you do it today?"
"Hold it in advance." The young Taoist priest said: "A total of eighteen temples in the entire land of China are holding Dharma meetings today. After the seven-day Dharma meeting is completed, all qualified Taoist practitioners will go to Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain to participate. The Dharma Conference is really grand in scale!"
The young Taoist priest looked to the southeast with some longing and said: "It is said that in seven days' time, more than 50,000 Taoists will gather at the Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain, and gods from the sky will also come to congratulate them. Shou, that¡¯s what you call a fascinating person! Alasit¡¯s a pity that we are not qualified yet!¡±
Zhao Qingshan understood. It turned out that the Dharma conference held in Jinfeng Mountain today was to satisfy the pilgrim wishes of these young Taoist priests. No wonder the Taoist priests seen all over the street were all between the ages of twenty and forty, and not even one could be seen. Taoist priests who are quite old or have immortal spirit are walking around the streets.
It turns out that the Dharma assembly held to celebrate one¡¯s birthday has also set up a strict hierarchy. Taoist priests who fail to meet the requirements can only live a life of addiction in their own territory, while those who are truly the mainstay of TaoismTaoist priests will gather at Qingyun Temple in Longsu Mountain on the sixth day of March!
But the question is, why did Chang'e let herself come here today? The one I want to go to should be the Dharma conference on the sixth day of March, right? Is there anything weird on Jinfeng Mountain?
Zhao Qingshan suddenly became enlightened, but at the same time he was a little confused
