Chapter 15: Longhu Mountain, the Ancestral Home of Taoism

Longhu Mountain, the ancestral home of Taoism.

Here are high mountains and steep ridges, dangerous terrain, clouds and mist, with many mythological colors.

It is said that Zhang Daoling, the founder of Zhengyi Dao and the head of the four great Taoist priests, once refined elixirs here.

On the day when the elixir was completed, it turned into a dragon and tiger wonder, and Longhu Mountain got its name.

There are three famous attractions in Longhu Mountain.

They are Tianshi Mansion, Zhengyi Temple and Taishangqing Palace, and there are Taoist priests in them.

However, in terms of influence and fame, the biggest one is Tianshi Mansion.

At this moment

At the foot of the mountain gate, four or five people wearing Taoist robes gathered.

Among them, there was an old Taoist with gray hair and wearing a red Taoist robe, standing in the front.

In Taoism, the color of clothes can distinguish the seniority and status of the cultivators, and red is second only to purple.

And this old Taoist.

He is the contemporary Tianshi junior brother of Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion, Taoist Yuyang.

The other few are all simple blue Taoist robes.

Belong to the younger generation.

In theory, Longhu Mountain is a scenic spot.

Even if it is not a holiday, there are still many tourists, but there is no one today.

The reason is that today the Tianshi Mansion is going to receive a group of important guests, so it has chosen to close the mountain for a day.

"Master, it's almost ten o'clock, why haven't people arrived yet? Did you remember the wrong date?"

Soon, a young Taoist priest looked into the distance with his neck stiffened. Seeing that there was no movement, he couldn't help but whispered. ơɱ

In Taoism, although there are seniority differences, there are not many rules.

So the young Taoist priest dared to speak like this.

After all, he knew that the master was over ninety years old.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Yu Yang Zhenren smiled and said, asking the other party not to worry.

Because he calculated that it was about this time, it should not be wrong.

"Master, look."

At this time, a sharp-eyed Taoist priest spoke, pointing forward.

Everyone looked up and saw a bus in that direction, which slowly stopped to the side. Five or six people got off the bus. The ages of these people ranged from 30 to 50 years old, but without exception, they all had excellent temperament and bright clothes, and they had extraordinary family backgrounds.

"Welcome all donors to my Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion. Here, the old Taoist once again thanks all donors for their donations."

"Today, I will lead all donors to choose their favorite personal lay Buddhist temples."

Yu Yang Zhenren went forward to greet them, bowed slightly, and made a kowtow.

So.

These people are all wealthy people who have donated recently. Because they have reached a certain amount, they can come to Longhu Mountain to choose a lay Buddhist temple.

No wonder, the junior brother of the contemporary Tianshi of Tianshi Mansion needs to come out in person to entertain and welcome them.

"Master is too polite. We, ordinary people, are really ashamed."

"Junior Liu Qing, Master can call me Xiao Liu."

A fat middle-aged man with greasy hair hurried out, holding a briefcase and speaking in a literary manner. It is obvious that he prepared this set of words on the way.

Other wealthy people saw this, glanced at him, despised in their hearts, but remained calm on the surface and came out to greet him.

Everyone knew in the car that the Taoist priest who received them this time was of high seniority.

So even they did not dare to be arrogant because of their status.

People say.

When wealth and status reach a certain level, they will believe in certain things more.

The wealthy people in front of them are this kind of people.

"It's almost time, Master, can we go to the Tianshi Mansion?" Mr. Liu spoke, thinking of trying the vegetarian food of the Taoist ancestral temple and getting a taste of the immortal air.

As for the other wealthy people, they naturally meant the same thing.

"It seems that there is still one person who hasn't arrived yet."

Next to him, the young Taoist priest flipped open the roster, counted the heads again, and continued: "Indeed, one person hasn't arrived yet."

This sentence made the rich people stunned for a moment, and then they showed a look of dissatisfaction.

There have always been people waiting for themselves.

Now they are actually asked to wait for others?

However, after seeing that Yu Yang Zhenren was still standing there, several people didn't know what to say, and stayed there awkwardly.

Not long after, a black G appeared in front of everyone's sight, and a young man got off it.

He didn't hesitate, walked closer, and said apologetically: "Master, I came from Shanghai, so there was a little traffic on the way."

The young man was Lu Yuan, who drove from Shanghai.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the person arrives."

Yu Yang Zhenren didn't mind, anyway, it didn't take too long.

Then, he walked in front and took everyone to the Tianshi Mansion on the mountain.

This made some rich people a little worried. After all, this old Taoist priest was over 90 years old. Could he really climb the mountain?

Facts have proved that although Yu Yang Zhenren is old and looks frail, he has great physical strength. He walked from the foot of the mountain all the way up for more than an hour without any signs of fatigue and his eyes were clear.

On the other hand, the wealthy people headed by Mr. Liu were all breathing heavily and constantly drinking water.

Even the young Taoist priests had slightly pale faces, and were obviously a little tired.

"Dear donors, it's still early anyway, why don't you take a rest first?"

Yu Yang Zhenren was not surprised by this and suggested stopping.

This statement naturally received the consent of most people present, and they sat down one by one, covering their chests.

But soon, the old Taoist priest's eyes changed slightly, because he saw Lu Yuan not far away, still standing tall and calm, almost the same as when he was at the foot of the mountain, as if climbing for so long was nothing to him.

"Is it because you are young that you have good physical fitness? No, it shouldn't be this reason."

Yu Yang Zhenren glanced slightly. He had been in Longhu Mountain for so many years.

I don't know how many people he has seen climbing mountains.

But there has never been one who was like Lu Yuan, who was completely fine.

Although he felt a little strange, he didn't ask much, and stood there with his eyes closed to rest.

Lu Yuan naturally noticed the gaze of the old Taoist priest, and thought in his heart: "After the change, Longhu Mountain is one of the few famous mountains that produced great figures in the early stage and stood firm in the new era. There are several old Taoist priests who are even more unfathomable later. I think they are also prepared, just like this Yu Yang Zhenren, who is over 90 years old, but has better physical strength than young people."

"Ordinary people can explain it as a Taoist master, but in fact, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

He knew very well that a famous mountain with a mythical color like this has a very rich foundation.

Perhaps there is a legacy from the ancestors, but it has never been manifested because the heaven and earth are suppressed.

After the mutation, the shackles of heaven and earth were removed, and the way some monks and Taoists practiced had a huge effect, especially for some old Taoists who had been in seclusion for many years, they could immediately accept that mysterious power.

In ancient times, there were Qi-refining masters in the pre-Qin period who could make elixirs and practice, and had various mysterious methods.

Those who inherited this method in modern times can certainly do this after the ban on heaven and earth was lifted.

In other words, the real power of this group of old Taoists was sealed.

When the mutation began, it was the day of unsealing.

Just as I experienced at the beginning, some people can become powerful rapidly in a short period of time after the new era begins.

This kind of existence is because they have a foundation and foundation for many years.

Lu Yuan was a little envious of this.

Of course, that's all.

After all, how many years has a person like Yu Yang Zhenren practiced Taoism?

And I only need to prepare for a few months in advance.
