Become a disciple of Taoist Priest Four Eyes

…

"Are you feeling better?" Xu Junming asked.

"It's no longer serious. Many thanks to the virtuous master and apprentice for saving his life. Zhang Xutuo is grateful."

Xu Junming smiled and nodded, stretched out his hand, and the waves of earth rolled beside him. In a moment, a stone pier took shape.

"Sit down and talk."

After saying 'thank you', Zhang Xutuo sat down with his sword straight, his back straight. His many years of military career have integrated everything about being a warrior into his bones.

"Now the whole world thinks you have died in the battle."

Seeing Zhang Xutuo's surprise, Xu Junming smiled faintly, stretched out his hand, and a white spiritual light spread out, quickly turning into a water mirror about ten feet in size.

What he saw in the water mirror was the scene when he was fighting that day.

But after seeing him lose strength after fighting hard until he fell into coma, a spear flew towards him like lightning and penetrated his chest. A tall and thin warrior with a ferocious expression on his face.

He knew this man, Xu Shiji, the most scheming among the generals in Wagang.

Then a bright sword flashed, and his head was chopped off. His head was grabbed by a strong hand and raised high. The bright red blood reflected a fanatical and ferocious face of a strong man with a long beard on his chin. .

Zhang Xutuo, who had clashed with Wagang many times, was no stranger to this person either.

Wang Junkuo, the general of the Five Tigers of Wagang, the ‘big sword and beautiful beard’.

At this point, the scene in the water mirror stopped abruptly.

In his surprised eyes, the scene quickly regressed back to the time when he was unconscious.

This time, he clearly felt that everything in the picture had slowed down.

The moment he fell, a big black hole suddenly appeared behind him. An invisible suction force pinched his body and swallowed him instantly.

A ray of light flew out of the black hole, and after sinking into a corpse not far away from him, the latter instantly transformed into his appearance, and even the armor and robes were all similar.

Then 'he' was shot through the chest and decapitated with a knife.

Once here, the water mirror turns into light and dissipates.

"do you understand?"

Zhang Xutuo nodded.

However, everything was accomplished in a blink of an eye, and using a simple dead body, he was able to deceive the Wagang generals at the general level or Yuanyang level, which shows that the master and disciple must have reached an unimaginable level of cultivation.

"What are your plans for the future?"

"after?"

Zhang Xutuo's eyes became confused.

He could not go back to Sui Dynasty.

Moreover, in the past few years, he has been extremely disappointed with the Sui Dynasty. His previous 'death in battle' at Dahai Temple was considered as repaying Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty for his kindness.

Looking back on his decades of military career, a feeling of exhaustion suddenly came over him.

At the same time, the voices and smiles of his wife and son appeared before his eyes.

Over the years, he fought in all directions for his fame. When his two wives died, he never had time to return home to pay their respects.

Now he just wants to let go of everything and return to the home that makes him feel at ease.

"Back to the real person, Zhang Xutuo is willing to let go of everything, return to his hometown, and never set foot in the court again for the rest of his life."

Xu Junming smiled and nodded.

The right hand points diagonally.

"look."

Looking in the direction of the finger, there was no trace of color in the blue sky.

Just when he hesitated and wanted to ask, a black spot suddenly appeared in the sky.

The black spot quickly enlarged and was close to him in an instant.

After landing, a skinny monkey wearing a tiger skin skirt, lined with yellow shorts, and a furry face and a thunderous mouth appeared.

"Hey, you're awake?"

Zhang Xutuo understood instantly.

"Are you your benefactor?"

"I, Old Sun, saw that you were a man and it would be a pity to die. So I used some tricks to rescue you." Sun Shi said with a smile.

Zhang Xutuo pushed the golden mountain and knocked down the jade pillar, and he fell to his knees.

"Zhang Xutuo thanks his benefactor for saving his life."

Sun Shi jumped away quickly, waved a magic power with his right hand, and lifted Zhang Xutuo up.

"Get up, I, the old man, hate it the most. People shed tears in front of me, especially you are a grown man. Get up, get up."

Zhang Xutuo stood up straight, his face full of gratitude.

"That's right."

"My old grandson has traveled thousands of miles to bring you some gifts."

In an instant, a small mountain covered with clouds and fog appeared above the head. Several rays of light flew out from it and landed on the ground, transforming into a man, two women, and two children.

"Daddy?!"

"Yun Su, Yun Sheng?"

Looking at his son and daughter, Zhang Xutuo became excited instantly.

The father and son hugged each other and cried.

Zhang Xutuo's wife died early, leaving him with only one son and one daughter, who has been living in his hometown.

After crying enough, the daughter-in-law who was waiting next to her came over with her two grandchildren.

As a member of a family, there is naturally endless things to say.

Xu Junming left with Sun Shi and Chen Ling, leaving space for the Zhang family.

The three masters and apprentices returned to the stone room below.

"With the grace of saving my life and the love of being a member, as expected, this Xutuo will be your third disciple."

Sun Shi smiled.

"It's rare to meet someone who cares about a disciple. Judging from his qualifications and understanding, he is also very good. I just wonder if he can pass the test of Chongshan's core disciples?"

“You’ll know after you try it.”

"So I'm going to have a junior brother soon?" Chen Ling said in surprise.

"You silly boy, the youngest is the most favored." Xu Junming said with a smile.

"Then I would also like to be a senior brother." Chen Ling said with a naive smile.

"You need to practice hard for me first. You're not even a general, so why are you so embarrassed to be a senior brother?"

Chen Ling's smile faltered, and his expression instantly dropped.

But he soon became determined again.

"I will definitely be able to overcome the tribulation and advance to the level of a military commander, and surpass my junior brother as soon as possible."

"The most taboo thing about martial arts is eagerness for quick success. With your qualifications, as long as you practice step by step, there will be no problem in advancing to the realm of general, general, or even spiritual general in the future. If you are impetuous and eager for quick success, you will sooner or later be taken advantage of by your inner demons, and you will suffer for many years. Xiuhua is like running water."

Chen Ling's expression turned solemn, "Disciple, please remember the teachings of our ancestors."

Xu Junming nodded slowly.

"They're back."

After a while, there were chaotic footsteps outside.

The Zhang family walked in under the leadership of Zhang Xutuo.

Knowing that Sun Shi didn't like to kneel down, he took his family and bowed deeply.

"Zhang Xutuo would like to thank the immortal for his kindness. If there is any mission in the future, Zhang will definitely die without hesitation."

"Get up, everyone, get up."

After Zhang Xutuo and his family got up, Sun Shi continued.

"Who taught you your martial arts skills?"

"The ancestor of the younger generation is Zhang Wen, a captain of the Eastern Han Dynasty. His family has a long history, so he has acquired martial arts."

"So you don't have any masters?"

"yes."

"Zhang Guo, I, Old Sun, see that you are a talented person and your temper is to my liking. I intend to accept you as my disciple. Are you willing?"

Sun Shi was a straightforward person and asked directly without beating around the bush.

Out of the expectations of Xu Junming and the others, Zhang Xutuo knelt down.

"Disciple pays homage to his mentor."

Then there are three kowtows.

"You don't ask whether we are good or evil, yet you are willing to become a disciple?" Xu Junming said with a smile.

"My mentor has given me a great life-saving grace, and Zhang Xutuo should repay it. As for good and evil, I have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. If it is good, I will follow it; if it is evil, I will reject it. If I die because of resisting the teacher's orders, No regrets."

"After all, this life was saved by my mentor, so it's only right to take it back."

"Haha, you must have thought clearly." Xu Junming nodded with a smile, "Our Chongshan Academy is a major Taoist sect, a famous and authentic sect, respected by the world. We have always taken 'eliminating demons and defending Tao' as our own responsibility, and 'seeking truth from facts and investigating things'. The purpose is to achieve knowledge and equality for all living beings."

"Coming to my door is a great opportunity for you, and you will definitely benefit from it in the future."

"Yes, Zhang Xutuo remembers it."

Sun Shigang was about to use the Hunyuan Divine Sect to test Zhang Xutuo, when suddenly a stream of light flew from outside.

Xu Junming stretched out his hand and released the restrictions of the stone house. The light flew in, fell into Xu Junming's hand, and turned into a piece of letter paper.

"Master, what's the matter?"

"Quanzhen Taoist Supreme Elder Songfeng Taoist Feijian sent a message, inviting me to go to Zhongnan Mountain for a gathering."

"It's been less than two years since this old Taoist left after listening to Third Master Uncle's sermon. Why did he come to invite me again?" Sun Shi said.

"The reason was not mentioned above, but since they have spoken, it doesn't matter if they go."

Zhang Xutuo was secretly surprised when he heard this.

Although he is not a member of the Taoist sect, he also knows that the most powerful sect in the Sui Dynasty cultivation world is the Quanzhen Tao of Zhongnan Mountain.

The leader, Chongyang's son Wang Chongyang, and the Supreme Elder Songfeng Taoist were Taoist masters respected by the entire Sui Dynasty cultivation world.

Listening to the exchange between Master and Grandmaster just now, they treated each other as equals in words. And judging from what that means, Taoist Matsukaze has also listened to the sermons of the founder of our sect? !

If everything is true, then isn't his new disciple also a major Taoist sect?

A vague expectation rose from the bottom of my heart.

Water flows to lower places, and people move to higher places.

The latter is nature.

…

Zhongnan Mountain, also known as Xiandu Mountain, is the most blessed place in Nanzhan Buzhou and is also the location of the famous Quanzhen Taoist ancestral court in the world of cultivation.

Kou Qianzhi and Lu Jingxiu, the founders of Quanzhen Taoism, are rumored to be members of the Yunzhongzi disciples, inheriting the Yuqing Taoism.

But even so, the relationship with the Yuntai Immortal Sect, which also inherits the Yun Zhongzi tradition, is not very close.

On this day, there were four more Taoist customs on the mountain road leading to the Chongyang Wanshou Palace at the top of Zhongnan Mountain.

It was none other than Master and Disciple Xu Junming who came from the Central Plains.

"Master, it's quite lively here."

Sun Shi smiled as he looked at the endless stream of pilgrims walking up the mountain road.

"Although Quanzhen Tao is a spiritual sect, it also has a great influence in the secular world."

"Hehe, it's definitely far behind our Chongshan Academy."

Xu Junming smiled.

Chongshan Academy directly controls the secular world. There are no mortals, only monks.

"Master, look, they are coming."

Looking in the direction of Sun Shi's finger, more than a dozen spiritual lights flew from the top of the mountain.

In a moment, they came close, the light disappeared, and a dozen Taoists walked out.

The leader was none other than Xue Daoguang, the 'Zixian Zhenren' who had been practicing for thousands of years and went to Lingling County with Taoist Songfeng to listen to the Dragon Emperor's sermon.

Seeing Xu Junming, he quickly took two steps forward.

"Xue Daoguang pays homage to Master Chongshan."

Although his cultivation level is the same as that of Xu Junming, who is a Taiyi Golden Immortal, Xu Junming is of the same generation as his master Songfeng Taoist, so Xue Daoguang naturally has to greet him with the courtesy of a junior.

"No need to be polite."

"Is your respected master here?"

"My mentor and master are already at Qingsong Xiaozhu to welcome the master."

"Lead the way."

"Please, please."
