Xuanjian Immortal Clan

"Bang!"

Just as they finished speaking, they heard a gust of wind hitting the firewood door. The running dog next door startled the bird's nest, setting off a series of birds chirping and dogs barking. Xu Gongming and Tian Zhongqing both felt chills running down their spines at the noise and looked at each other. Fearful, Xu Gongming gritted his teeth and whispered:

"I made a mistake."

Tian Zhongqing also looked slightly pale, barely nodded calmly, exchanged a few words, but had no intention of talking. He sent Xu Gongming out of the hospital in person, watched him drive away on horseback, then stamped his feet in annoyance and regretted:

"Talk too much and make mistakes, and you will get more disasters out of thin air!"

After returning to the house, Tian Zhongqing took two large sips of tea and said to himself:

"It should be fine, it should be fine. The master has not said much about punishing the crime."

The lackey next door barked again. Tian Zhongqing was disturbed by the sound and said in a deep voice:

"Somebody come!"

"grown ups"

The servant in charge hurriedly came up. Tian Zhongqing waved his sleeves and whispered:

"Take the dog and send it to a house farther away. Don't let it make any noise anymore."

"Eh."

The servant quickly answered, and the subsequent barking gradually became lower and farther away, but Tian Zhongqing's heart was still boiling, weighed down by a heavy stone.

He sat back in front of the case, assessing whether the noise was a coincidence or a guest from the host's house. Tian Zhongqing sipped his tea silently and thought to himself:

"If Young Master Yuanxiu was the host, this would probably be caused by a guest. But now that the host is loose, it seems like an unintentional coincidence."

After thinking about it, Tian Zhongqing finally blamed himself and secretly regretted:

"I don't think I'm usually cautious, but it's easy for me to make a mistake when talking to my friends. After all, it's inevitable... How can anyone be so cautious every day for ten years?"

At this end, Xu Gongming rode his horse in a daze, feeling regretful and ashamed. Mr. Xu repeatedly asked not to make friends with the surname Wang and not to talk to the surname Wang, but he unknowingly violated all the taboos. , Infinite regret welled up in his heart. Xu Gongming walked around the forest for several times, but he couldn't think of a way to make up for it.

"The old man has also passed away, and there is no one to advise me anymore."

Xu Gongming walked for several miles, carefully recalling the old man's words before his death, found a flat place in the field, and stared blankly at the rain and dew dripping down.

Li Tongya watched for a while, then drank a few sips of wine. Several people around him saw that he was silent, and Zhu Zifu was watching from above. He drank a few sips of spiritual wine to strengthen his courage, and slowly began to chat.

The atmosphere on the field also became lively. A group of monks were toasting, joking and joking, and it was a lively mess. Seeing that Li Tongya ignored them, the monks around him gradually let go of their courage and began to brag and talk.

The white-haired monk on Li Tongya's left raised his glass and asked with a smile:

"Brother, who is from that county? In what fairy mountain do you practice spiritual energy?"

The monk on the other end cupped his hands and replied:

"Under the rule of the Xiu Yue Sect of Yuebei County, they practiced in a small temple on the top of the mountain. How can they be called the spiritual veins of the fairy mountain? It's just a hill."

"Fellow Taoist, be humble."

The white-haired old monk smiled with envy and sighed:

"How many years have I been waiting for you? I know a lot about the affairs of the Yue Kingdom. This Yue Kingdom is living the most proudly under the Xiuyue Immortal Sect. My fellow Taoist is really lucky. I must be living the life of a fairy like Xianyun Yehe."

"Eh!"

The young monk smiled bitterly, shook his head repeatedly, took a sip of wine, and whispered:

"Where is the life of a god? The human world is a mess, and the competing interests among Taoist temples and small temples are also laborious. What's more, Yuebei County is close to Xu State, and Buddhists come and go from time to time, leading the people to the north. How can there be any It's so easy to say... Mortals don't always envy the monks who come and go, thinking that if they become immortals, they will have nothing to fear, but you and I also know how it feels to be in it!"

The white-haired old monk chuckled and nodded approvingly, but he also had a different view and spoke again:

"But you take it lightly. The struggle under your Xiuyue Sect is just a struggle for power. If you lose, you will get out of the way with the orthodoxy. How can it take people's lives unless it is a life-and-death struggle? Turn around and take a look at the other sects. .”

He paused slightly, his voice was much lower, and he whispered:

"I'm not even talking about the Qingchi Immortal Sect. If you just look at Boring Gold Gate, how many family Taoist temples are destroyed every year?"

The young monk nodded slightly and replied:

"Not to mention the Yue Kingdom, the same is true for the Wu and Xu Kingdoms? Without the monks of the Zifu to guard them, they are just playthings and utensils, slaughtered at will. One night, there were monks from the Zifu in the door, so everyone was happy, and then they Your disciples should be treated as human beings!"

The white-haired old monk had a lot of experience and was deeply touched by what he said, but the young monk also had a lot of experience. Li Tongya nodded slightly after what he said. After saying this, the two of them felt that it was not appropriate to say more about this in the current scene. He quickly changed the topic.

"You said there are Buddhists in Yuebei County from time to time?"

The old monk changed the topic and said in surprise:

"I also went to Xu State when I was young. There were no Buddhists in the far north. Why is this so?"

"Harmful!"

The young monk immediately sighed and said angrily:

"The spiritual lineage of the Xu Kingdom is shallow, the national power is weak, the territory is small, and there are no famous sects. There are only a few sects guarding Xu. How can they hold it? I heard from the masters in the temple that they saw it a hundred years ago. There are less than these people, and they have only increased in the past fifty years.”

The old monk was silent for a while and replied:

"Those Zifu real people and Jindan Immortals...could they just let...Xu Kingdom fall like this?"

The young monk paused slightly and whispered:

"There were fights...Buddhism also had powerful people take action, such as Lianmin and Maha. I heard that the beasts and birds in the seven mountains were turned into vegetarians and starved to death. The rumors are frightening. "

The old monk sighed repeatedly, with a look of memories on his face, and whispered:

"I have also met Shi Xiu. He is a Dharma master who understands the mind and nature and has great wisdom. I once thought about taking refuge, but the Dharma master insisted on hitting me with a Zen staff. It was too painful, so I had to give up."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone looked strange, wanting to laugh but being embarrassed to say anything. Only the young monk laughed and replied:

"Senior, the present life that we cultivate and the afterlife that he teaches are in conflict with each other. If you are not enlightened enough, you will naturally feel pain."

The old monk didn't take it seriously either, so all the monks laughed softly, and the atmosphere became much more harmonious.

Li Tongya listened with great interest. His family had grown too quickly and had a weak foundation. He knew little about the news, so he remained silent. Listening carefully, he felt that his horizons had been opened. Then he saw the old monk saying:

"There are many ways in the world. You can cultivate the golden elixir of Zifu. It doesn't matter if you cultivate the Maha Dharma. There are also mantras and scriptures that have destroyed the enemy and disappeared without a trace. Which path is right? , just go that way!”

These words shocked the world, and all the monks spoke with approval or disdain.

"My fellow Taoist, what you said is wrong. If you lose your original intention while practicing cultivation, what's the point of me being something other than myself?"

"Staying in the same furnace in different houses is the way of demonic cultivation. Fellow Taoist, what you say is too much..."

As a result, Li Tongya frowned slightly and lost interest, so he had to drink alone. Unexpectedly, a middle-aged man wearing animal skin walked up in front, stepped forward and said with a smile:

"Senior is drinking alone, but you have something to worry about?"

I had a fever again today, so I came back and wrote a chapter in a daze. When this period of time passes, I will definitely code it back for everyone.
