Chapter 156: Geniuses appear frequently and old friends leave (Update)
Yunzhu Peak.
It is still a fairyland with green bamboos, green pines and ethereal aura.
Deep in the Cloud Palace, a Taoist in a green robe and a black hat is sitting cross-legged on the Cloud bed, practicing quietly.
The Dixuan Realm is currently connected to the Mountain and River Realm, but it has not yet been completely integrated.
But if this momentum continues, in another ten years or so, there will be another Dixuan Continent on the vast East China Sea.
"Senior Brother Jiang, Senior Brother Lingzhao is here."
Le Fang stood in front of the tall palace door and said softly.
Since Senior Brother Jiang came back, Le Fang felt that the Qi of this True Senior Brother was even more ethereal.
To put it bluntly, Brother Jiang found a world and merged it into the Mountain and River Realm within less than thirty years of experience.
It has only been two years since Brother Jiang returned with one side of the world.
Senior Brother Jiang, who has infinite scenery, lives in the deep palace and never goes out.
Maybe this is Senior Brother Jiang’s extraordinary character.
Le Fang sighed with emotion and became more respectful to Jiang Sheng.
“Let him in.”
Jiang Sheng's clear voice came from the palace door.
Le Fang invited Lin Fan in, opened the heavy palace door, and looked at the figure sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed, Lin Fan couldn't help but smile.
When the door of the palace was closed, isolating the inside and outside, Lin Fan couldn't help laughing and scolding: "We haven't seen you in thirty years, and this is the first time I come to the door, and I treat you as a clone. Jiang Yuanchen, you are so rude."< br>
"I am in the Earthly Mysterious Realm, and I won't be able to come out for another ten or eight years. Now there is just this clone, Lin Yunxuan, do you think I should see you or should I not see you?" Taoist 1 A helpless look.
The two of them immediately smiled.
Two square jade tables, spiritual tea and fairy fruit.
Lin Fan played with the tea cup and said, "I heard that Lingyuan, the Supreme Being who has forgotten his love, also found a confidante in the Earthly Mysterious Realm?"
"Where did you hear that? Rumors, do you believe this?" The Taoist chuckled.
Lin Fan shook his head: "Of course I don't believe it, but after hearing the story of Fairy Fengyue, I would like to meet her."
"Her talent is unparalleled. She is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Although she is born as a girl, she is not inferior to the men in the world. This kind of strange woman is extremely rare. ”
"I remember that you, Lin Yunxuan, and Mu Chan became a Taoist couple, right?" The Taoist laughed.
“Of course I only have one Taoist companion, Mu Chan, but that doesn’t stop me from respecting him.” Lin Fan said.
The Taoist nodded: "After the Earthly Mysterious Realm is completely integrated, I will introduce Fairy Fengyue to you."
Lin Fan smiled and said: "That's very good."
"Speaking of which, two years from now will be the day when our Dao Sect will open its doors again."
"Your little disciple must be participating, why don't you go and have a look?"
The Taoist was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "Of course I want to take a look."
" Since the Golden Elixir Ceremony, Pindao has never seen this disciple again, and I don’t know what his current cultivation level is.”
“I have checked for you, your disciple’s cultivation speed is not fast. "Hang on, I'm already at the Purple Mansion Realm," Lin Fan said.
The Taoist nodded with satisfaction: "In less than a hundred years, it is hard work to open up Zi Mansion on your own."
Lin Fan casually picked up a fairy fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it slowly: "There is something I should tell you."
"In the past few years, you have been away from the sect, and there have been two top-ranking ones in the sect. "Golden elixir."
"This is a good thing. In just thirty or forty years since you and I formed the elixir, two high-grade golden elixirs have appeared in succession, which is worthy of celebration." The Taoist said with a smile.
Lin Fan continued: "Well, of course it's a good thing. Since you're not here, I gave you your gift. I also went to join in the fun of their Golden Elixir Ceremony."< br>
“Qinghua Dao Sect and Tianhe Dao Sect came to congratulate them, and they are also two new true disciples.”
"As the catastrophe of ten thousand years approaches, each family has more and more true stories."
The Taoist looked at the fairy fruit in the jade plate, pondered for a moment and asked: "Dajin Temple and Datianlong Temple, Are the ones sent here also new true disciples?”
Lin Fan nodded: “Yes, one is named Guangwen and the other is called Suo Wu, both are new true disciples, but their abilities are not outstanding.”
The Taoist listened quietly to Lin Fan's narration about Xuanjing and Xuanfang of the Qinghua Taoist Sect, Mingzhen and Mingyou of the Tianhe Taoist Sect, and Lingxuan and Lingyan of his Penglai family.
This is still a known top-grade golden elixir.
It is not known how many Daitenryuji and Daikinzenji there are.
However, two of the Liuhui Buddha disciples of Dajin Zen Temple have already appeared, and the remaining four are still unknown.
As the catastrophe of ten thousand years approaches, not only these Taoist holy places and Buddhist holy places have their own true stories, but also many geniuses have appeared in other large and small forces.
The Taoist thought carefully: "With so many geniuses appearing, this world of mountains and rivers will be very lively in the next eight or nine hundred years."
Lin Fan smiled and said: "This is not the case. Loneliness, if it were really ordinary, would be too boring.”
The Taoist glanced at Lin Fan and said no more.
After Lin Fan left, the Taoist counted the time with his fingers: "It has been fifty years since I left Qingping Mountain."
"I don’t know if Tian Guofu is still alive. . ”
At thirty, one is standing tall; at forty, one is not confused; at fifty, one knows destiny; at sixty, one is attuned.
For ordinary mortals, fifty years is equivalent to more than half of their lives, which is enough for them to grow up, start a family, marry a wife and have children, and then see a family full of children and grandchildren.
But for Jiang Sheng, fifty years seems like just yesterday.
Once I practiced in seclusion for more than ten or twenty years, when I came out again, many acquaintances disappeared.
"Maybe we should go to Qingping Mountain to take a look." The Taoist pondered.
After making up his mind, the Taoist walked out of the gate and turned into a stream of light and left Penglai.
Qi State, East County of Qingzhou.
In addition to the Cha family of Zifu in Dongjun, there is another prominent family in Dongjun. Tianjia, Qingshan County.
The original magistrate of Qingshan County, Zhang Qingyun, has gone elsewhere. The current magistrate of Qingshan County is Tian Cailiang of the Tian family.
His father is Tian Mingwen.
Tian Mingwen was the previous magistrate of Qingshan County, and his elder brother was Tian Ming'an.
After Tian Ming'an became involved in Dao Dao and practiced with Jiang Sheng, the Tian family's second son took over the Tian family's business.
With the relationship between Jiang Sheng and the Cha family, and the support of several major purple families and sects in Qingzhou, the Tian family has now become the real emperor of Qingshan County.
Although most members of the Tian family have moved to Qingshan County, Qingping Town has always been the ancestral home of the Tian family.
Qingping Mountain and Qingping Town are the real sustenance of the Tian family.
On this day, a breeze passed through Qingping Town.
A figure in a green robe and ink crown blended into this bustling town at the foot of the mountain.
At this time, Qingping Town had a population of tens of thousands. Traffickers and footmen were selling goods along the street. In each shop, waiters were greeting customers.
Many scholars talked loudly, and some ladies wore veils and watched the street scene.
The Taoist came to the Tian family mansion. Speaking of which, this was actually the Taoist's first time in Qingping Town.
After staying in Qingping Mountain for more than ten years, he has been to Qingshan County, Dongjun County, including Haijun and Qingjun.
But it was the first time that Qingping Town at the foot of the mountain had really entered.
Looking at the tall lintel in front of him and the plaque of the farm house, the Taoist chuckled. He sensed that his old friend was still alive.
Although the Taoist was standing in front of the farm gate, the servants guarding the door could not see the Taoist at all.
They were holding sticks and standing majestically at the door.
Let the Taoist pass in front of them without even a breeze.
After entering the farm house, I walked through the porch and the front hall looking for the scent of the old friend, and came to a quiet courtyard in the backyard.
This villa has flowing water, green bamboos and weeping willows, and green flower beds, making it quite quiet and elegant.
"Ho"
A weak voice sounded.
The two maids guarding the door quickly entered the house.
Looking at the old man lying on the rocking chair with his cloudy eyes open, the maids approached him respectfully: "Ancestor?"
"Ah, it's okay."
"You all go out, all go out. ."
Tian Guofu's voice was very weak, and his body was as thin as a withered body. Under the light and breathable luxurious silk, there were many age spots on his old body, and he could faintly smell some stench.
This is inevitable when people grow old.
But even so, no matter the maid or anyone in the Tian family, when they see this old man, they must respectfully call him "ancestor" without showing the slightest disgust or impatience.
This is the Tian family’s sea-fixing needle, and its importance is even greater than that of the monk Tian Ming’an.
Every day, Tian Guofu is surrounded by more than a dozen maids who take turns taking care of him.
These maids are the most understanding and attentive at their age. They speak softly and act lightly.
And in order to prevent them from slacking off and making mistakes, they worked in pairs, changing one group every hour, in order to allow them to recharge their batteries and ensure that there would be no mistakes in taking care of Tian Guofu.
At this time, listening to the instructions of the ancestor of the Tian family, the two maids hurriedly went out.
As the door closed, a figure gradually appeared next to Tian Guofu.
The Taoist in a green robe and black crown has a face like a crown of jade, eyes like stars, and a handsome figure, just like the handsome young man in his prime.
"Hey, I haven't seen you for more than fifty years. Taoist priest, Taoist priest is still the same as before."
Tian Guofu said with difficulty, with a rare gleam in his turbid eyes, and his face It also glowed red with excitement.
Jiang Sheng knew that Tian Guofu was almost at the end of his life.
A gentle magic power passed through, suspending Tian Guofu's life.
For a time, Tian Guofu felt as if he was back fifty years ago, with sharp ears and eyes, strong body, and strong speech.
"The Taoist Master can come and see the old man before he dies, and the old man will be satisfied." Tian Guofu smiled.
The Taoist sighed softly: "On a whim, I counted with my fingers and came to see my old friend."
"Mayor Tian, you have lost weight."
Tian Guofu said with a smile: "It is hard to buy old age with money to lose weight. It is a good thing that the old man has lost weight."
"I paid attention. The Tian family is developing very well," Taoist said.
Tian Guofu had a trace of nostalgia on his face: "Yes, if Ming'an wants to practice, he can only entrust this business to Mingwen."
"Fortunately, Ming'an strives for excellence and does well He became the magistrate of Qingshan County."
"My old man never thought that in my grandson's generation, there could be a monk or a county magistrate, which would really be a glorious ancestor."
The Taoist listened quietly to Tian Guofu's words and looked at Tian Guofu's breath. Getting weaker and weaker.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" the Taoist asked softly.
Tian Guofu's eyes were extremely bright at this time, and his face was full of smiles: "It is a blessing for the old man to meet the Taoist priest in his life."
"The old man cannot practice, but he can also Having lived one hundred and thirteen years, I am content with this life.”
"Taoist Priest, when the old man saw you, he knew that the Tian family's fortune was coming."
"Thinking about it now, the old man was really lucky to have a relationship with the Taoist Priest."
The Taoist chuckled: "The fate is wonderful. Back then, I said that Mayor Tian is a wonderful man."
Tian Guofu chuckled, but the luster in his eyes gradually dimmed. Until there is no more sound.
