Laoshan Taoist Chapter 3: Procurement down the mountain

Published:

   Wilderness and forests, adding a new grave.

   After the descendant of the Danding faction gave his last wishes, Wang Yan followed his wishes and found an open place to cut out the isolation belt, got some dry wood, and cremated the body.

   They have dedicated their entire lives to the furnace pill. Even if they die, their bodies will melt into the flames, and their souls will be detached and ascended.

   wrapped his ashes in cloth, found a place with a good view, dug a hole and buried it on the spot, sending him the last ride.

   This day, so many unexpected things have happened, and he has gained a lot, and he is still a little at a loss.

   After returning to the Sanqing Temple, Wang Yan didn’t conceal it. He told Master all the things he encountered that day. The old Taoist priest did not say much about this, but said that all this was his fate.

  The avenue of superiority, inclusive of all rivers, the accommodating capacity is very broad.

   What to do is up to his own choice. If he is willing to stay, he will continue to chop wood and water. If he feels hard, he can leave.

   For his training, the old way will not change because of certain things.

  Wang Yan is naturally unwilling to give up this thigh easily. After all, looking for a successor is not anxious for a while. He has not yet completed his own great practice, so how can he be willing to help others because of small losses.

   And the things in the box, a bronze token, an ancient sheepskin scroll, and finally the half of the black vine that was given to him as a gift, no more than three inches long, the thickness of a thumb, black as charcoal, Full of resilience.

   Li Changye said that this is a Lingbao that can cure diseases and detoxify. In order to verify it, he specifically asked Master for advice, and the results were roughly the same.

   It’s just that the master gave him another suggestion to plant with the soil under the roots of old pine trees and irrigate with the dew on the willow leaves in the early morning.

   Regarding the other two things, the old Taoist priest gave him a piece of advice. The karma contaminated by this inheritance is very heavy. If he can bear it, he can accept the inheritance. Otherwise, it is best not to lighten it.

   After hearing the words, Wang Yan was very grateful for the decision he made at that time.

   The fat rabbit named Long Ears, because of the death of the owner, has not eaten or drink for several days, and is always in a state of grief.

   In the end, it was Wang Yan Haosheng’s enlightenment, and several seniors in the view often tempted them with food, which gradually improved.

  The future life will be as boring and monotonous as ever.

   Another month passed in a blink of an eye. Now Wang Yan, in addition to cutting firewood every day, the master also allows him to chant the sutras with other seniors in the morning class. Although he has not taught the spell halfway, he is not discouraged.

   In the film and television novels of the previous life, if the protagonist wants to become a decent teacher and learn art, he must carry water and wood for at least three years before he can learn the true skills. He has only been more than two months, and he will only be in Japan for a long time.

   Wang Yan was just an ordinary person in his previous life. He has neither great wisdom nor background. He has always been diligent and conscientious in his work.

  To say that his greatest advantage is that he has long-lasting patience. As long as it is something he thinks, no matter how hard it is, he will stick to it.

   For the past two months, Wang Yan’s physical fitness has improved a lot after running up and down the mountain every day.

   Chang Er has gained weight for several laps due to the rewards from the seniors from time to time. Obviously, it has come out of grief.

   And Wang Yan, according to Master’s order, didn’t seem to change much of the black vine that he planted. What it used to be is what it is now. If it were an ordinary plant, it would have sprouted long ago.

   approaching October, when the season changed, an autumn rain continued for three days, thoroughly washing the entire Laoshan Mountain.

   In the early morning of this day, the rain had stopped, and the side yard was viewed Sanqing.

  Wang Yan finished washing, put on a plain suit, and organized it all.

There are not enough joss sticks in the temple, so Master ordered them to go down the mountain today to purchase a wave, so as not to cut off the incense of the patriarchs.

   Whatever happened these days, people basically went to temples to burn incense and worship Buddha. Who would travel to Taoist temples to get incense?

   Although the people’s incense is gradually declining, these disciples can’t let go. Sooner or later, the three-pillar fragrance is still needed.

   So every two or three months, I would go down the mountain to purchase.

   pushed open the door, and wanted to say something to Long Ear, but the fat rabbit didn’t know where it went, so Wang Yan had to give it up.

  Today, the number of people who went down the mountain to purchase, plus Wang Yan, total three.

   It may be that this old Taoist priest is too low-key on weekdays and does not easily show the mountains and dews. Therefore, although the Taoist temple is large, there are not many disciples in the door.

   Excluding those who have already entered the world, there are only more than 30 people who remain in the watch, even the third-rate small gangs on the rivers and lakes can’t match.

   But the old saying goes well, the disciples are fine but not too much.

   There are more than ten seniors who have followed Master’s practice, and the rest have to collect firewood, water and dust, and contract some chores in Taoist temples. Therefore, the hard work of purchasing naturally falls on them.

   “Junior Brother Wang, it’s time to set off, and I have to come back tomorrow!”

   A senior outside urged loudly.

   “Come on!”

   closed the door, and Wang Yan went straight out.

   Outside the courtyard, two seniors are already waiting with bamboo baskets on their backs.

   These two brothers have only started for about a year. One has the surname Li, a famous place, and is about 30 years old, with a beard under his nose.

   is tall and strong. It is said that he has learned martial arts for several years before entering the school.

   Another person named Zhang Daoran, born like Wang Yan, was also a child of a wealthy family. He was only sick since he was a child, and his parents were just such a son. He couldn’t bear to live a long time. He heard that the Taoism of Laoshan had amazing medical skills. Sent up the mountain to hone and recuperate.

   After seeing it, Wang Yan turned to the corner to take the back basket. However, at first glance, he was dumbfounded. He saw the long ears curled up in the back basket, holding a carrot, nibbling with relish.

   saw him come, cooed twice, and continued to nibble.

   “I’m going to work under the mountain, but I’m not going to play, the mountain is high and the road is long, you should stay in the view!”

   Wang Yan stretched out his hand to lift it out, but the fat rabbit stretched his leg and flicked Wang Yan’s hand away.

   “Junior Brother Wang, let him go! I can also have multiple companions along the way.”

   Zhang Daoran looked at Long Ears with a grin.

  The children of the rich family, eating, drinking, and having fun are the norm. Even if you go up the mountain to practice Taoism, this character still remains deep in your heart.

   Zhang Daoran contributed a lot to it being as fat as it is today.

   Seeing someone speak for me, Long Ears took advantage of the trend~IndoMTL.com~ He sniffed and looked at Wang Yan, as if saying that I was going to make a decision.

  Wang Yan has no choice but to compromise.

   “Okay! Brother said so, what else can I say, but I won’t carry you all the time. When you come back, you can jump up the mountain by yourself!”

  Speaking, Wang Yan picked up the basket on his back and followed the two seniors down the mountain.

   The sky was clear after the rain, and the ground was still a bit moist. After three days of wind and rain, the mountain road was covered with dead leaves.

   Laoshan is a famous mountain in Qingjiang Prefecture. It has unique scenery, steep mountains, and it is next to the East China Sea.

   has a radius of more than a hundred miles, the golden dome is more than four hundred meters high, surrounded by many strange peaks and ridges and other peculiar topography, there are countless valleys and hills, and Sanqingguan is located at the golden dome of Laoshan, hidden all year round. Among them, there is an immortal charm that is isolated from the world.

   is so majestic, no less than the Five Sacred Mountains in the previous life.

  Especially the Laoshan Xuegong at the foot of Laoshan Mountain, which was extremely famous throughout the Dasheng Dynasty.

   Let’s put it this way, one-third of the top scholars in the Dasheng Dynasty in the past 100 years came from the Laoshan Academy. Many scholars in the world are proud of being able to enter the Laoshan Academy for further study.

  The emperor Taizong of the dynasty once mentioned a picture, titled “The First Academy in the World.” Those who practice in the middle school can be said to be well-known in the world.

   Although Laoshan Xuegong is famous, the Sanqing Taoist Temple on the top of Laoshan Mountain is little known. Nowadays, few people can climb to the top of the mountain to get incense. At most, they just watch the scenery on the side peaks around the mountainside. A few poems, a few fus and so on.

   And those who come here especially admire the name of Laoshan Academy.
