Rebirth of Song Qingshu

Chapter 66 Baiyun Temple

Even though the wind and rain are blowing in the three mountains, the beauty of Qinai is nowhere to be found.

In the valley, Song Qingshu came back again, only to find that Youlan was no longer here.

After Song Qingshu discovered Lingbo Weibu in the Kunlun Mountains, he was not in a hurry to practice. After all, this could not be accomplished overnight. He had been out for a while and it was time to go back. Besides, he still had commitments.

When he came to the valley, he didn't see Orchid. Song Qingshu was surprised at first, thinking that something unexpected had happened. Later, when he took a look, he found that there were no traces of fighting in the valley. The thatched cottage was still the same, the bamboo forest was still the same, the waterfall was still the same, everything was the same.

It's no different when you leave. The only difference is that the owner is no longer here.

However, fortunately, Youlan knew that Song Qingshu would come back, so she left a letter to Song Qingshu in the thatched cottage, saying that she had something to do now and needed to leave for a while, and she didn't know when she would be able to come back, so that Song Qingshu didn't have to wait here.

We will meet her in the future.

Song Qingshu was not someone who couldn't afford to let go. Since he was destined to be with her now, he didn't insist on it. Now that it was the twelfth lunar month, it was time to rush back to Wudang Mountain, so he waved his sleeves and turned around to leave.

Entering the twelfth lunar month, the land of China is filled with a strong flavor of the New Year. Song Qingshu is also eager to return home.

However, I had previously discovered that riding Heitan had Zhang Guolao's demeanor, but now I regret it. Although Heitan is good, its speed is a major drawback, but we cannot let it go and let it fend for itself. There is no way.

, Song Qingshu had no choice but to ask for help from another branch of the Wudang Sect.

The Wudang Sect has a separate temple in Jinzhu City (now Guiyang, Guizhou), called Baiyun Temple. This Baiyun Temple is an old temple with a history of hundreds of years, and was built by a strange man named Baiyun Laodao.

establish.

Originally it was not under the Wudang Sect, but things have changed, people have changed, and the world has changed, and the Taoist temple that was so prosperous at that time has also declined.

Later, the temple was in great danger and was saved by Song Yuanqiao, who was walking around the world. So firstly, in order to thank Song Yuanqiao for saving his life, and secondly, to find a backer for himself, the current temple owner at that time joined the Wudang sect.

Song Yuanqiao led his master and accepted disciples. However, they were not real disciples, but registered disciples. So the Baiyun Temple became a separate temple under the jurisdiction of the Wudang Sect.

The Taoist priest who presided over the Baiyun Temple back then has become an immortal. The current temple master is a disciple of the previous temple master, named Qiu Xiandao. He is also a third-generation disciple of the Wudang Sect. He and Song Qingshu are brothers. But obviously he is not

A true disciple, like his master, is regarded as a special disciple of the sect.

In fact, this situation is not uncommon. The Wudang Sect has Taoist temples all over the country, and these are basically controlled by registered disciples. These people provide offerings to the Wudang Sect, and the Wudang Sect provides them with protection. The so-called "it's easy to enjoy the shade under the big tree"

'That's the case. In fact, this can be regarded as a mutually beneficial thing. Otherwise, the world is so big, how many disciples would we need to train!

And it has always been said that 'the law is not passed down to the six ears'. The inherited skills of each sect are not easily taught. If everyone could inherit the mantle, the world would probably be in chaos.

When Song Qingshu found Baiyun Temple, it was already dusk. At this time, thick clouds and mist were entrenched in the sky. The setting sun could only take advantage of a little gap to shoot out streaks of crimson glow, like fish swimming in the sea, occasionally tumbling.

With golden scales.

The gate of Baiyun Temple was about to close. Song Qingshu stepped in and was greeted by Taoist priests who came out immediately.

"I've seen the layman. The temple is about to close. The layman should come back tomorrow." The Taoist priest who greeted the guests thought that Song Qingshu came to the Taoist temple to offer incense.

"Haha, I am Song Qingshu of the Wudang Sect. Just go and report." Song Qingshu said with a smile.

When the Taoist priest who welcomed the guests saw that Song Qingshu was not a alms-giver but a member of the Wudang sect, he did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly went in to report.

Soon, a Taoist priest in his forties came out with a group of Taoist priests.

"It turns out that Young Master Song from the Shadowless Sword Song Qingshu came to visit. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar." Although Qiu Xiandao dressed up as a Taoist priest, he spoke boldly and without any servility. A registered disciple like him would never meet someone like him.

True disciples basically have a low self-esteem, especially the first disciple like Song Qingshu. However, he is not like this. He speaks neither humble nor arrogantly, which makes Song Qingshu look up to him.

"Haha, Qingshu is so polite." Song Qingshu smiled slightly, pinched the Taoist secrets with his hands, and saluted. "Senior Brother Qiu is out, just call me Junior Brother or Qingshu."

Qiu Xiandao saw that although Song Qingshu was the first disciple of the third generation, he was not arrogant about his status. He seemed approachable and had a very humble attitude. It is said that "people carry people in sedan chairs". Since people respect you, of course you should reciprocate the favor.

So he smiled slightly and said, "Don't dare, don't dare. Senior Brother Song is the first disciple of the third generation, and the rules cannot be changed."

Song Qingshu didn't dwell too much on this issue. He knew that even if he didn't care, it was the rules of the sect that a registered disciple would automatically lower himself to a lower level when he saw a true disciple, so he couldn't force it.

After reciting the ceremony, he went into the hall to serve tea. Qiu Xiandao asked Song Qingshu what was going on here.

"Haha, the twelfth lunar month is approaching. I have been traveling for half a year. It is time to go back, but I lack a good horse, so I want to ask my senior brother for help. The other thing is to send my current mount, a black donkey, back to Wudang."

Song Qingshu smiled slightly and revealed the purpose of his trip.

"I see, it's a trivial matter." Upon hearing Song Qingshu's request, Qiu Xiandao waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

After talking for a few words, Qiu Xiandao ordered people to go down and arrange a meal, clean the bedroom for Song Qingshu, and arrange a place to stay. The two talked for a while, and someone came to report that dinner was ready.

Qiu Xiandao nodded, waved the Taoist boy to retreat, then smiled at Song Qingshu and said, "In that case, let me help Senior Brother Song first."

"Haha, do as the Romans do when you are in the country, and obey Senior Brother Qiu's arrangements in everything." Song Qingshu said with a smile.

"Okay, in that case, please invite Senior Brother Song."

"please."

Qiu Xiandao then invited Song Qingshu to have a vegetarian meal. After the meal, Qiu Xiandao personally led Song Qingshu to the bedroom prepared for him.

"The Taoist temple is simple, so please ask Senior Brother Song to stay here for one night." Qiu Xiandao said modestly.

"Haha, Senior Brother Qiu is too polite." Song Qingshu said with a smile.

"As for what Senior Brother Song ordered, I have already arranged it. Senior Brother Song can rest assured," Qiu Xiandao said.

"That's it, thank you very much." Song Qingshu cupped his fists and said.
