I am immortal

In an instant, the young Taoist felt a pain in his forehead, and then his body started to fly lightly.

The body broke through the nine layers of earth, and in an instant it rose. The young Taoist felt the weight of the earth, and in an instant he seemed to turn into a stone. The small stone was blown and rolled, and the earth carried all things. But it is not eternally silent, but it accumulates strength from beginning to end.

Nothing remains the same.

Beneath this constant state are great changes happening all the time.

Then the young man realized clearly, could it be said that from beginning to end, everyone's understanding of the earth's veins was wrong.

Virtue and virtue are only one side of the earth.

Underneath this generous virtue, there is a domineering force that is no less powerful than Lei Huo, and is even more tyrannical!

It is the so-called dragon and snake rising from the land!

As soon as he thought about it, the environment he was in changed again. The suppressed power of the earth violently burst out, so the vision was suddenly lifted up, the earth cracked, and everything was below.

All things change in the vicissitudes of life.

That small piece of stone turned into a bulging mountain due to the changes in the earth's veins. It is just a mountain. Mountains are born from the earth. They look down silently, seeming to be sleeping in a daze. They see the growth of all things. The mountains are covered with snow at sunset in winter, and the mountains are covered with snow in spring. Everything grows at this time, the trees are green in summer and golden and red in autumn.

The four seasons rotate, but I remain unchanged.

Use the wind as the belt and the clouds as the sleeves of the robe, watch the changes in the world and know the people in the four seasons.

This is the earth, which holds all things.

The higher the mountain, the higher it seems. It seems to be able to directly support the sky and press the ground. Then among the people, there are tall people who go further and call themselves gods. They reach the highest mountain. , and in the first era, the word "仙" was created, which was people on the mountain.

Is this the earth?

Suddenly there was a thunderous change, the roaring sound was huge, the mountain collapsed, and fell rumblingly to one side. The stones burst, everything was dead, the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked. It was the anger of the earth, so on the earth A ravine appeared, the rumbling sound was more powerful than thunder, and then cracks appeared in the ground.

Infinite and unfathomable.

The changes in the earth caused the sky to stir up clouds and rain to fall. Slowly, and I don’t know how many long years, the cracks filled with water and turned into rivers. Then there were rivers, mountains, and rivers back then. A huge mountain collapsed and was weathered. The young Taoist's consciousness turned into a huge stone as it weathered.

This stone was taken away by people, brought into the city, and turned into a brick in the city to carry all things.

All living beings walk back and forth on this earth, living their lives. When they were young, they took their first steps on this stone. When they died, they finally fell to the earth. Human growth depends on being able to rely on one's own strength. Strength, stepping on the earth, walking forward in circles, people are about to die, and they can no longer move after all.

And the struggle in the world continues, the war is endless, this stone has been broken, the city has been abandoned, the sea has changed, and I don’t know how many years have changed, this stone has been weathered into dust, and then blown up by the wind, those tiny dust Soaring up, the sight suddenly widened, passing through the endless mountains and rivers, and only felt the boundless magnificence.

Finally it landed on the highest mountain.

A little dust, a world in all directions.

That's all.

We have reached the point where Taiyi once rescued the suffering.

It’s just that the mind of the young Taoist has not returned yet. The sky is vast, the earth is born, carrying all things, the ground contains thunder, dragons and snakes rise from the land, the sea changes, time changes, so all things grow on it, mountains and rivers walk under it, contains thunder, and moves. Life and death, the vast sky, the boundless earth, and suddenly the young Taoist's vision suddenly changed, and in an instant, it was like waking up from a big dream.

He looked at the sky.

He seemed to be lying on a mountain.

He seemed to be a mountain himself.

His eyesight shot up!

A mountain is the starting point, and then suddenly spreads outward. The earth carries everything. Rivers and mountains are crisscrossed above, and boundless land veins are crisscrossed below. With mountains and phenomena as nodes, and endless waterways and mountains as connections, it is complex and vast. Majestic and carrying everything, the young Taoist lay on a mountain in the middle.

Then the crisscrossing earth veins and the huge overlooking everything suddenly turned upside down, as if the earth was lifted up by a great force, the strong wind flowed, whistling on the face, and the young Taoist's robes fluttered, his temples were white, silently waiting for the mountains and rivers of the years. Turned into patterns, all living things are just footnotes on the robes.

The earth turned into white palms.

All the young Taoist saw was just the lines on a white palm.

He lay there in confusion, raised his head, and saw an immeasurable, indescribable, incomparable woman who seemed huge but seemed ordinary, with soft brows and distant eyes, wearing gorgeous clothes and a dark gold color. It has both ink color, as if it has witnessed everything, as if it has experienced everything, as if it has recorded everything, ancient, benevolent and compassionate.

And, the calmness and divinity that transcends all this.

With this change, the memory of the land where dragons and snakes landed is more vivid than the vicissitudes of life they just saw.

There is a vastness that touches the young Taoist's heart.

What he saw was the vicissitudes of the sea, carrying all things, changes in life and death, and endless mountains and rivers.

It turns out that they are all just lines between the palms.

The woman just looked at everything peacefully and compassionately.

She didn't say anything or ask anything. The woman just smiled, and everything seemed to be enough. Suddenly, there was a sudden shock. What she saw in front of her disappeared in an instant. What was reflected in the eyes of the young Taoist was the vast sky. He was lying on the bed. On the land at the foot of Helian Mountain, my nose smelled the smell of a distant land.

It had only been a moment, but it seemed that he had experienced a change in the world, and he had seen Helianshan's past.

The young Taoist suddenly became lazy and didn't want to move, just lying on the ground.

The Ancestral Qi of the Yuan Dynasty dispersed, and the Qi of the Earth rose directly from the earth's veins and entered the body of the young Taoist. He seemed not to be a living being, but the eternal earth. It seemed that as long as he was on the earth, then he would not be able to survive at all. There is no time when his own energy is exhausted, and the energy of the earth's veins is rapidly restoring the basic injuries of his body.

It seems that as long as he is still on the earth, he will not die.

The sea has changed, dragons and snakes have risen from the land. This earth has experienced countless hardships, but the earth is still the earth.

So do I.

It was like the earth was torn apart, mountains and rivers collapsed, but turned into rivers again. The broken foundation of the young Taoist circulated the energy of the earth, calmly and gently, and the foundation was restored. In just a short time, 10% of it had been restored. The foundation, and then the energy of the earth spread out, and the young man did not stop it. It was just as quiet as the rocks overlooking the rotation of the four seasons.

There was a gentle voice in my ear: "After hearing this for a few days, you will lecture on the Dharma and make elixirs."

"I'll see how much you can realize in these few days."

"Can I get started?"

"Let me see if the understanding of Taishang's lineage is indeed as rumored."

Just for a moment, the young Taoist remembered this in his mind.

However, the one he came into contact with was the oldest Houtu Emperor among the [Four Imperial Guards]. He was lying quietly on the ground, with his arms spread out and his eyes slightly lowered, so the energy of the earth was flowing and changing in his body. Raising his hand, a bird naturally landed on his finger, as if it was just a rock.

The young Taoist clasped his five fingers together slightly. The bird was frightened and flapped its wings and flew away. In his eyes, the Qi of the First Ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty was racing.

What I saw just now was that the earth shook, dragons and snakes rose from the land, and a scene of vicissitudes of life unfolded.

Between the five fingers, thunder suddenly rushed.

It's not like thunder from the sky, but like the roar of the earth shaking just now.

Among all the methods, the thunder method is the strongest, and among the thunder methods, the thirty-six thunder methods are the highest.

And above the Thirty-Six Thunder Mansion is the Five Thunders, Heaven and Earth Dragon Shrine.

It is the second of the five thunders and has the strongest momentum. It symbolizes the cracking of the earth, the vicissitudes of the sea, the murderous intention of the earth, and the image of dragons and snakes rising from the land. It uses the vast and vigorous changes in the years to turn into thunder, which can beat the souls of immortals and break the bodies of kings. .

Earth vein mine.

Pure.

………………

But in the Ruizhu Palace, a woman with majestic appearance and sharp clothes slowed down and came slowly. On the bed in front of her, she saw a woman with soft eyebrows, wearing dark gold and ink colors. , a woman with pure gold and jade, who looks like she is hiding a secret seal, has her eyes closed, and holds her cheek with one hand, as if she is sleeping lightly.

This woman with a fighting spirit said: "My dear lady, you have just been in a state of confusion."

The lightly sleeping woman raised her eyes and said with a smile: "Yuanying, don't be like this, it's just a thought."

Yuanying Yuanjun said: "You have not recovered from your injuries eight thousand years ago, so it is best not to leave."

He put the soup cup down and carefully opened the lid. Then he seemed to feel that his tone was too serious, so he softened his tone and said, "But, Madam, you haven't been out for a long time. Did you meet someone interesting when you went out this time?" , or something happened?”

The elegant woman smiled, took a sip from the soup cup, thought about it, and joked:

"I just discovered that my old friend raised a very cute kitten from somewhere."

"It's a bit old-fashioned, but it has done some good things. In the past, I heard that this little kitten also caught a lot of 'rats'. Apart from doing some harm, today it was a rare coincidence that he came to my yard to butterfly butterflies. Out of curiosity, he always I’m going to tease him a few times, doesn’t Yuan Ying think so?”

Yuanying Yuanjun said: "If your Majesty likes raccoon slaves, just go down and catch some."

"puff……"

Another soft and beautiful woman next to her couldn't help but laugh: "What the empress said must be a certain junior, right? How can it be a real cat? Yuanying, you really don't know how to joke."

Yuanying Yuanjun raised his eyes and did not answer.

Empress Houtu raised her hand and put down the mountain god talisman of Helian Mountain, and said with a helpless smile:

"He even asked me to resign."

"This kid, I've even met him in my incarnation, and he still wants to resign."

After Yuanying Yuanjun understood the reason for the young Taoist's resignation, he felt that there was no problem and said: "This is a good thing, and it can also avoid being implicated in malfeasance in duties. However, the empress did not take it back because she wanted to give him something directly." ? For example, a higher priesthood."

Empress Hou Tuhuang Dizhi replied with a smile:

"Of course not. The gift of the Zhongzhou Tribulation has been given to him. As for how much the little guy can understand."

"Look at his understanding."

"I'll give him a few days to see if he can figure out anything. If he really has the ability and understanding, then it would be appropriate to give him a more convenient position as a 'mountain god'. He will be selected based on his talent. If his understanding is ordinary, , then he is still the mountain god of this mountain, he just changed the name of this mountain, and it is no longer called Helian Mountain."

Yuanzhi Yuanjun on one side smiled and asked: "What if his understanding is extraordinary?"

"If you have the potential to reach the stage where Taiyi saves the suffering Tianzun, what will you give me?"

Empress Dowager Dizhi said:

"Then let him roam the leylines even if he's not here."

"As for that Helian Mountain?"

"Taoist cultivators all have a blessed land in heaven. Even gods in heaven often have a blessed land in the human world. There are incarnations sitting here, preaching Dharma, or coming here in their true form to open up a dojo in the human world. This mountain is good. He solved the disaster for Zhongzhou, and Helian Mountain sent him off."

"Also add a mountain god, a land god, a day travel god and a night travel god, each with several people."

"He can play on his own, but he has to go back to this home eventually. Let's give him a home."

The empress of Hou Tuhuang had a gentle voice: "The vicissitudes of life are ruthless, and time is indeed cruel to the human world. At least I will leave him some beautiful things in his memory. I hope that one day he will turn around and look back when he becomes a true king. , at least not even the slightest trace can be found anymore.”

"That would be too painful."

Yuanzhi Yuanjun and Yuanying Yuanjun looked at each other, saluted, and took charge of this matter.

Yuan Zhiyuanjun sent a god general under his command to send a message to Tao Taigong and others, informing them of the change of the mountain's name. He also told them that the mountain god of this mountain may be changed, but this mountain will at least be related to the young Taoist. So everyone relaxed, then looked at each other with strange expressions, and said: "This, change the name of the mountain..."

"Ah, it's called Qishan?"

Xiao Huangjing and Xiaoluling were both happy: "Qishan! Qishan!"

But it was directly rejected. The old ape in the mountain shook his head repeatedly and said: "No, no, this won't work. It's too tacky to call the mountain by its name! And it's not flattering, no, no, no!" But the old ape cares. A younger monkey with his own name said while eating the peaches left by magic in the summer:

"Then take the voice, not the name."

"It's called Qishan?"

"Qishan?"

All the monsters pondered, and finally even the monsters who were left here to do hard labor began to think about it and said, "No, Mountain of Crossed Roads, this doesn't sound good!"

"This is true."

"What about Wuhuo Mountain?"

So Xiao Huangjing and Xiaoluling became happy again: "Wuhuo Mountain! Wuhuo Mountain!"

Everyone felt satisfied, but they heard a sneer and said:

"What is Wuhuo Mountain? Others thought it was Wuhuo Mountain! It means there is nothing in this mountain, so it is called Wuhuo Mountain!" The group of goblins and monsters were furious. They all looked at it, but saw that The black bear, who stood less than one meter tall, had one hand on his hips and a bamboo pole in the other. There was a white undercut under his neck, which gave him a hint of guidance:

"Get out of the way, get out of the way and make room for your Grandpa Bear."

"A bunch of rubes!"

"How can it be so easy to name a mountain? It's so tacky!"

"For example, the Putuo Mountain of Guanyin Master is not directly called Guanyin Mountain!"

"Putuo Mountain means Putuo Luojia. To put it bluntly, it is a beautiful place full of flowers and trees, with Buddhist temples and the charm of immortals, so it is called Putuo Mountain!"

The black bear's speech calmed down many animals.

Only then did everyone realize that this one had a heel!

So Tao Taigong invited the black bear to sit down, served him good fruits and delicious food, and asked him what he thought. The black bear took a bite of peaches from the old peach tree on the mountainside, and said with a clicking sound, "That's easy to say, that little boy, cough cough." , I mean, does the Taoist Priest have any means worthy of speaking out?"

Everyone looked at each other in disbelief, and all looked at the bear cub that had been transformed from a ten-foot-tall giant bear into a little bear cub that was less than one meter tall.

The sound of silence is as deafening as thunder.

The little bear cub was furious: "It's not me!"

"It's not me!"

Tao Taigong reluctantly looked away, stroking his beard and thinking: "He once made elixirs here and also talked about Taoism. We all admire him and know that this Taoism is extremely mysterious..."

"Then it's called Chuanfa Mountain, or Danding Peak."

"At least it sounds better than the Wuwu Mountain."

Everyone nodded.

I just feel that I am worthy of being the bear cub who stole Guanshiyin’s cassock.

Just know more!

Danding Peak is good, very good.

One person suddenly said slowly: "By the way, I remember that when he was talking about Taoism, he once said something..."

……………………

The young Taoist lay on the ground for a while before he came back to his senses, feeling peaceful in his Taoist heart.

The five fingers are slightly opened, and the earth vein thunder flows and changes, which is enough to bombard the earth to crack it.

"That senior was so generous. He directly taught me such a method..."

Little Peacock and Little Yaoling didn't know why, but they slept very deeply and very sweetly. The young Taoist stretched out his hand and pushed it several times, but they didn't respond. He had to smile, shake his head, and get up. It was getting late, and he wanted to go home. So I went down the mountain, thinking about the vast scenery I saw today.

After walking for a while, I saw that the road ahead was deep, but I could also see the lit candles, hear people greeting each other, hear familiar voices, and laugh. With a smile on his face, the young Taoist priest carried the Bamboo basket, inside the bamboo basket were sleeping a little peacock and a little medicine spirit. He stepped forward, his eyes clear.

But don’t think about that!

Practice is practice.

Life is life.

If you're hungry, go home and light a fire to cook!

Red dust, into mortal world.

On the mountain, the tall man said: "When he wanted to teach the Dharma, I was not convinced that he was the God of Helian Mountain, so I made things difficult in every possible way and ordered him to tell these monsters the method of innate energy." The black bear bit the peach and nodded repeatedly. With a face full of admiration: "Then you are quite good."

The ground stopped for a moment, and he glared at him angrily, saying: "I relied on my age to teach him not to go so far."

"But he said, 'The road to spiritual practice is very far away, and those who have never met a teacher are like walking in the dark, blind.'"

"[It would be great if I could hold a candle and light up the road ahead]"

"Do you still remember?"

Tao Taigong sighed, how could he not remember? It was these words that convinced him that the person was the Supreme Master, with such a kind heart.

So the man said: "How about just naming it with this sentence?"

"You mean, Zhuzhao Mountain?"

"It doesn't sound good...think about it, think about it..."

Everyone was thinking hard, the setting sun in the west was melting gold, and the mountains were gradually taking on a spring scenery.

The young Taoist who is now only sixteen years old walked home quickly.

It is the time when the grass grows and the orioles fly. The young Taoist now is only sixteen years old after all. His eyebrows are clear and immature, with the green mountains behind him and the mortal world in front of him.

The mountain gods thought hard and finally made a decision. They thought of a nice name and said:

"After today, this mountain will be called -"

"[Fangcun Mountain]."

"how?"

"Fangcun Mountain?"

The black bear drank the monkey wine brewed by the monkeys, gnawed the peaches growing on the peach tree on the mountainside, and watched the mountain gods discussing names.

The young Taoist stepped into the world of mortals.
