- Chapter 236 The Taoist of Wudang Mountain
As Fang Jie walked, he looked back at the black boy Yan Kuang who was giggling behind him, and then he kept shaking his head and sighing. In order to make this guy look more normal and pleasing to the eye, Fang Jie specially asked him to put on a brand-new book boy's clothes, a green robe with a small hat and soap boots. He was very clean, but this could not hide his ugly face.
Fang Jie even wondered if this kid was the reincarnation of a goblin.
Fortunately, the two big silkworms hanging under his nose disappeared under Fang Jie's coercive measures. But even so, when he walked into the martial arts academy, he still provoked waves of ridicule. Although the masculinity was not strong even in the Sui Dynasty, whose book boy was not a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth? The book boy brought by Fang Jie, not to mention that he has nothing to do with handsomeness, just saying that he is not handsome is unconscionable.
Not long after Fang Jiecai entered the Yanwu Academy, the news spread in the Yanwu Academy that he had brought a monkey to be a book boy.
The black boy is not shy at all. He laughs at everyone who looks at him. It was okay if he didn't smile, but when he smiled, the few female students in the martial arts academy were frightened and turned pale.
He met Yu Xiao halfway. After the two exchanged a few words, Yu Xiao pulled him aside. He frowned and glanced at the black boy, then lowered his voice and asked: "Where did you find such a person to be a book boy? This guy can scare people to death if he comes out at night!"
Fang Jie smiled coquettishly and said: "A fortune teller said that I have been having bad luck recently, so I found one like this to keep with me to ward off evil spirits But don't worry, he won't scare anyone when he comes out at night."
"Why?"
Yu Xiao asked.
Fang Jie said seriously: "At nightI can't see him"
Yu Xiao was startled, then burst into laughter: "This is the first time I have seen such a dark person. Don't tell me, if a book boy like you ran out naked at night and just stopped in a corner without pretending, who would Can¡¯t see either.¡±
Fang Jie smiled and asked, "I heard that the general will lead his troops on an expedition soon?"
Yu Xiao nodded and said: "His Majesty's decree has been issued. It is set on February 12th. I don't know what day it is. I looked through the almanac specifically and found nothing special. Good or bad. But my father doesn't believe it. For all these years, he has never believed in ghosts and gods."
"There are no ghosts and gods, so believe in them."
Fang Jie said: "It would be better if this battle were fought later, and you and I could go out with the general. With you taking care of me, I won't be able to come back with some merits."
Yu Xiao looked around and said in a low voice: "This battle may not end so soon. When I talked with my father two days ago, my father also said that if the Sui Dynasty can hold on to the Mandu flag, at least Until the Great Wall is built around the Mandu Banner, the Mongolian offensive will not stop. But building the Great Wall in the wild northwest is not easy. A large number of craftsmen have been recruited to head to the northwest, and there is no shortage of stone and wood on Langru Mountain But how can the Meng Yuan people watch our people build the Great Wall? "
Fang Jie hummed and said, "I hope to win this battle as soon as possible, and at the same time I hope that after we finish our studies, we can go to the northwest to make meritorious deeds It's extremely contradictory."
Yu Xiao smiled and said: "I deserve the credit. If this war can be fought within two years, it will be a really good result. From now on, it will be imperative for the imperial court to allocate large armies to defend the northwest, and the Meng Yuan people have eaten so much." How can you give up easily if you suffer a huge loss?¡±
Fang Jie nodded and said, "I wonder if after the Great Wall is built, the Meng Yuan people will soon learn how to fight tough battles."
The two of them talked a few more words about the war in the northwest, and Yu Xiao said goodbye and left. Fang Jie led Hei Boy all the way to the Yanwu Academy, and met Xie Fuyao when they were approaching the library. When Xie Fuyao saw the black boy, his expression was the same as Yu Xiao's. Such an elegant and calm person couldn't help but grin in surprise.
"Have you been out killing demons these past two days?"
Xie Fuyao asked him: "Is this person captured from Banyue Mountain? If he lives on Banyue Mountain, then the reason why there are no wild animals in Banyue Mountain can be found out."
¡°What a sinister mouth!¡±
Fang Jie understood and said, "Don't you feel safe having such a person by your side?"
Xie Fuyao chuckled: "Yes, if this person is posted on the door of his house, all ghosts and gods will be afraid."
Fang Jie didn't want to continue discussing the black boy's appearance, so he smiled and asked, "Why haven't you been seen in the martial arts academy in the past two days? I went to your courtyard several times to look for you and you were not there."
Xie Fuyao whispered: "I tell you, but you are not allowed to tell me."?Other people. "
Fang Jie squinted his eyes and asked, "Is the flower-picking thief gone?"
Xie Fuyao laughed and scolded: "Fart The benefactor who taught me my cultivation has arrived in Chang'an City. Do you think I should go and greet him? It's his first time in the imperial capital and he's not familiar with the place. I helped him settle in and walked around with him. I visited a few scenery and came back to the Martial Arts Academy early this morning."
"A disciple of Master Zhang from Wudang Mountain has come to the imperial capital?"
Fang Jie was startled, and his heart tightened for some reason.
"Well, my senior brother has been passing on my skills to me for so many years. My cultivation has been guided by him for so many years. Speaking of it, my senior brother is more like a strict teacher. A few days ago, I got news that my senior brother was coming to Chang'an City soon, so I quickly went out to make a reservation. Where he lives, he goes out to Chang'an City to greet him. "
"Your senior brother came here by himself?"
Fang explained the question.
¡°No, there are a few more people, but I don¡¯t know any of them.¡±
Xie Fuyao smiled and said: "I, the successor of Wudang, are far more low-key than the Taoist priests of Qingle Mountain. Logically speaking, my senior brother and the red-robed high priest of Qingle Mountain are on the same level. But I, Wudang, do not have the position of red-robed high priest. , Senior brother's Taoist robes are similar to those worn by his disciples. Even when walking on the street, he would be regarded as an ordinary Taoist. Who would have guessed that he is a disciple of Master Zhang of Wudang Mountain."
Fang Jie hummed, but what he was thinking was that the Taoists in Qingle Mountain should have returned to Yiqiguan long ago. After all, the exams for the Yanwu Academy were completed in the early summer of last year. Master Xiao and Taoist Heji have stayed in Chang'an City for eight or nine months. Why don't they go back? Before they left, the Taoists from Wudang Mountain came again. Why?
Fang Jie didn¡¯t believe it, the people from Wudang Mountain were just here for fun.
¡¡

Chang'an City is the most majestic city in the world, hundreds of miles long and wide. This was the most prosperous place in the Sui Dynasty, with countless people coming and going. The Sui Dynasty respected Taoism, so you can often see Taoism disciples in gray clothes and swords in Chang'an City. As for the Taoist sect, there is a saying in the world called the Eastern and Western Orthodox sect, which can be viewed all over the world.
The meaning of this sentence is that there are countless Taoist temples throughout the Sui Dynasty. But when it comes to the authentic Taoism, it can only be the Yiqi Temple in Qingle Mountain in the east and the Sanqing Temple in Wudang Mountain in the west.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Xiao Zhenren was named the leader of the Taoist sect in the world by the emperor, in terms of fame, he naturally had a larger view. People in the world value the theory of orthodoxy the most. Since Yi Qi Guan is the Taoist holy land identified by the emperor, naturally the school of Yi Qi Guan is the most orthodox. In this way, Wudang Mountain Sanqing Temple seems to be a bit lower.
"But Wudang Master Zhang's reputation is no less famous than Master Xiao.
Some people even said that if it weren¡¯t for Master Xiao, he would have been familiar with His Majesty before he ascended the throne. The title of leader of the Taoist sect in the world cannot fall on his head. It is said that Zhenren Zhang has lived for more than a hundred years and has five major disciples under him, known as the Five Immortals of Wudang. This word "Xian" is the honorific title given to Taoist practitioners by the world. People often address Taoists with the title "Xian Chang". But it is naturally not that easy to be known as a fairy in the world.
Zhang Zhenren has never walked down the mountain since he was ninety years old. The daily affairs of Wudang Mountain are also taken care of by the eldest disciple Song Hye Kyo. Song Huiqiao, the head coach of Wudang Mountain, is in her fifties and is highly respected in Wudang Mountain. His words have as absolute authority in Wudang Mountain as those of Zhenren Zhang.
The second disciple of Zhenren Zhang is Zhang Huiyi, the third disciple is Li Huishu, the fourth disciple is Liu Huizheng, and the fifth disciple is Liu Huiqing.
The only direct disciples of Master Zhang are these five people. There are thousands of Wudang Taoists, all of whom are the disciples and grandsons of these five people. In terms of scale, Sanqing Temple in Wudang Mountain is larger than Yiqi Temple in Qingle Mountain. Moreover, the Sanqing Temple already existed in the previous dynasty, and it has a longer history than the Yiqi Temple.
The person who taught Xie Fuyao martial arts was Master Zhang¡¯s fourth disciple, Liu Huizheng. The temperament of this person is the same as the overall temperament of Wudang Mountain, low-key and modest. This time he came all the way from Wudang Mountain to Chang'an, and no one in the government knew about it.
Before arriving in Chang'an, he only sent someone to inform Xie Fuyao, who was studying at the Yanwu Academy. Xie Fuyao was responsible for arranging and taking care of everything. Food, drink, housing and transportation were all left to this registered disciple. It stands to reason that Xie Fuyao should be regarded as a close disciple of Master Zhang, but he has only met Master Zhang twice. After Zhang's ninetieth birthday, he never left the mountain again.
Xie Fuyao arranged for the six people from Wudang Mountain to stay at the most famous Shunde Inn in Chang'an City, which is a century-old inn. The store is large, clean and tidy, but the prices are also quite staggering. The people who live here are usually wealthy businessmen who come to Chang'an from all over the world, and ordinary people cannot afford to spend money here.
But for Xie Fuyao, this is nothing. Although the Xie family in Jiangnan has gradually declined, that refers to the imperial family.position here. When it comes to wealth, even if it is not as good as Wu Yiyi, it is enough to rank among the top five wealthy families in the entire Sui Dynasty.
Liu Huizheng looks to be in her thirties, with a gentle face. He has been practicing with Zhenren Zhang for thirty years since he was seven years old. At that time, Mo Wanwan, a professor at the Yanwu Academy, believed that he was good at cultivation and went to Wudang Mountain to invite Zhang Zhenren to fight. Zhang Zhenren did not think that he was rude, but sent Liu Huizheng to fight on his behalf.
Liu Huizheng defeated Mo Wanwan's trick with the four-image fingering method, and Mo Wanwan walked away in shame.
After so many years, Liu Huizheng¡¯s cultivation has become more pure and powerful. Unlike the Taoists of Yiqi Temple in Qingle Mountain, they basically don't care about Jianghu affairs. Many Taoists in Wudang Mountain travel around the world and act chivalrously. Therefore, the respect people in the world have for Wudang Mountain is actually more than their respect for Yiqi.
There are six people, Liu Huizheng, and besides him there is a young Taoist boy. There are three other people wearing ordinary disciple clothes, and they are the three disciples with the best cultivation in his lineage. The other one is an old Taoist who looks to be at least seventy or eighty years old. The clothes on his body are the same as those of Liu Huizheng. He is obviously a person with the same status as the Five Immortals of Wudang, but he is so old and extremely It is impossible for him to be a disciple of Zhenren Zhang.
And judging from Liu Huizheng's respectful attitude towards him, it seems that the status of this veteran Taoist is not low.
"Huizheng, how long will we stay in Chang'an City?"
The trembling old Taoist asked after sitting down in the room.
Liu Huizheng thought for a while and replied: "I don't know yet, Master has not made it clear."
"well¡¡"
The old Taoist sighed and said: "I am already so old, and I still have to travel all the way to the imperial capital. If I live for a longer time, there is no guarantee that I will not throw a handful of old bones here. I cannot be buried on Wudang Mountain when I die. , I feel sour when I think about it. If your master hadn¡¯t said it himself, I would never have gone down the mountain.¡±
"Uncle Masteryou have such a strong body, how can you say these words?"
Liu Huizheng smiled and said.
"Tough?"
The old Taoist curled his lips and said: "I am almost ninety years old! Besideswho doesn't know that the imperial capital is a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers? HereI really don't want to come." - Didn't finish reading?
