"And cultivating the Dharma God means that you have become an immortal and ranked among the immortals."
"After the immortals, there are realms such as human immortals, earth immortals, heavenly immortals, creation, the other side, half-way fruit, the prototype of the other side of the Tao fruit, and the Tao fruit."
"But these are still too far away for you. Nowadays, the strongest monastic sects have only reached the realm of outdoor scenes. Not to mention the three-layer ladder, even the realm of the first three-layer body has not been reached."
"Now you know how difficult it is to become an immortal by cultivating Taoism, right?"
After saying this, the leader's face was full of helplessness. Wang Ye nodded and thought: It sounds really difficult...
But compared to Yin Yang Inn, what does the strength of the ninth-level brother Qilin mean?
So he asked curiously.
"Master, what state are you in now?"
The leader looked at Wang Ye, then turned slightly red and shook his head slightly.
"Half-step exterior scene. If calculated according to the grade of the walking master, it should be considered to be eighth grade."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ye looked at the leader in surprise and said.
"Huh? Just a little better than my little brother!"
"Master, you have to work hard! Otherwise, you will be outclassed by others!"
Master Daoxuan looked at Wang Ye speechlessly and then laughed and cursed: "Do you think it is so easy to improve your realm?"
"Although I am only slightly better than that walking master, this is also an insurmountable gap in practice!"
"However, realm cannot completely measure strength. Moreover, ancient professions are very different from cultivating Taoism. Some of the abilities and techniques of ancient professions are difficult for us as Taoists to master, no matter how high our realm is."
"Although I am in the realm of the eighth grade, if I want to compete in strength, I may not be able to beat those ninth grade ancient people who master unique techniques and techniques."
"Realm and rank are just titles. What really determines your strength is your magic and skills, not these false names. In ancient times, there were people who, although they had not entered the rank or attained the Tao, but their strength and talent, It is enough to surpass many high-ranking and enlightened people. This is an example of superior skills and mastery of skills to the extreme. ”
"For example, in the art of drawing talismans, some people are proficient in this art. Even if they are not qualified, they can still draw extraordinary talisman paper, but those who are advanced may not be able to do it. You said, these two Who is more interested? ”
Wang Ye curled his lips, but secretly marveled in his heart. He remembered that Brother Qilin had not yet entered the top grade before, but now he has caught up with their leader. This speed is really staggering.
He thought to himself that it looked like he would have to find a way to go to the inn for some training when he started training in the future.
Lao Tzu said that Taoism is natural, so it should be a matter of course for him to go from cultivating Taoism to becoming a Taoist.
Master Daoxuan had a look of regret on his face, shook his head, and remembered that Wang Ye once mentioned that Zhang Qilin's purchase of goods was due to the help of their shopkeeper, so he asked: "By the way, that Mr. Yin Yang of Yin Yang Inn you mentioned , did they really teach them the skills of exorcising corpses, summoning spirits, fishing for corpses, tying paper and praying to gods? ”
"This matter is not trivial. Judging from the skill of the walking master just now, his skill even surpasses that of Maoshan's Taoist Master Lin Jiu. Any one of these skills is enough for a person to spend a lifetime studying. How could it be possible? Such a powerful person? ”
Wang Ye frowned, shook his head and said: "I personally saw him giving instructions to those three people, and personally demonstrated the corpse exorcism technique based on spiritualism for Zhang Qilin. I am convinced that the skills of those three people are all from this Mr. Yin Yang Granted. But I am also curious, why is he so powerful? Moreover, I heard that he has also entered the rank, and the rank is not low."
"As for the specific level, I don't know. The three employees have just joined the level and don't know the shopkeeper's strength. I only know that he is very powerful, but no one knows to what extent he is. Still. There are rumors that this Mr. Yin and Yang once summoned the black and white impermanence, and even captured Zhao Li, the ferryman of the underworld, which sounds very scary, but I don’t know whether it is true or not.”
Upon hearing this, Master Daoxuan's eyes widened and he asked in disbelief: "Have you ever summoned Black and White Impermanence? And captured the underworld ghost messenger alive? That was a seventh-grade ghost messenger! How could there be such a powerful person? What if? If that’s true, then he must be at least a fifth-grade expert!”
Wang Ye shook his head slightly, smiled awkwardly, and said: "Master, you also know that I have not yet entered the rank, so I can't tell a person's rank at all. Moreover, these things are only heard, who knows if they are true What about fake? However, I saw it with my own eyes when he gave instructions on how to drive away corpses, fish for corpses, and pray to gods!”
The Wudang leader's eyes were full of shock, and he muttered secretly in his heart. He spent his whole life pursuing the opportunity to become a master, but he never did.
And in a remote village, there actually lives such an expert, who can easily help people become good people. This is really unbelievable!
If there really is such a person, then he must be four or five hundred years old, right? But Wang Ye's words were too mysterious and unbelievable. So he shook his head and said: "Something's wrong! If there really is such a master, my master should tell me. And the previous generation of masters should also have heard about it. But I have never heard of such a master. ! ”
Wudang leader Daochong frowned, looked at Wang Ye's tired look, and said: "Okay, now that the Grandmaster has returned to his position, there are still many things to do tomorrow. You go back to rest first, and hold a ceremony for the Grandmaster tomorrow. Sacrifice ceremony.”
Wang Ye nodded and followed Zhang Qilin all the way, feeling really exhausted. So he said: "Okay, Master, I'll go back and rest first. If there's anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow."
……
The next morning, Wudang Mountain was completely different from the past.
Amidst the clouds and mist, Wudang Mountain seems to have turned into a fairy mountain, filled with fairy spirit.
Wild cranes, which are rarely seen on weekdays, were also circling Wudang Mountain on this day.
Attentive people may find that since last night, there have been more animals on Wudang Mountain, as if they all want to get a piece of Wudang Mountain's luck. The trees in Wudang Mountain seemed to have grown much taller overnight.
After the Taoist priests came out of the Taoist temple, they found that the Taoist temple had not changed, but Wudang Mountain seemed to have a completely new look. They couldn't help but get together and talk about it.
"Have you seen it? Wudang Mountain seems a little different today!"
"I did some divination and found that Wudang Mountain's luck has improved. No matter how you divine, it's a good omen! What's going on?"
"Could it be related to the mysterious man in black yesterday? I heard that he was a walking master who brought back the ancestor of our Wudang Mountains. Didn't you hear the master shouting last night about the return of the ancestor? ?”
"Who can't hear this? The whole mountain can hear the leader's voice! Could it be that these things are related to the ancestor? Can't we really find the ancestor?"
"It's the ancestor's body! That boy Wang Ye found it and asked an expert to bring it back. I've heard before that if there is an ancestor guarding the mountain gate, the luck will change. Maybe one day When you practice, you will reach the top level!”
"Is there such a good thing?! Then this walking master is really an expert!"
……
Just as several Taoist priests were talking about it, they suddenly heard a long shout from the ancestral hall: "All Wudang disciples listen to the order! The ancestor's return ceremony will be held in three days! Everyone is not allowed to visit for three days, and they will be fasted for three days. , take a bath and change clothes after three days, and go to the ancestral hall to participate in the sacrificial ceremony at 9 p.m. For the other three days, Wudang Mountain will be closed to welcome guests. Please exit the Taoist temple as soon as possible and come back to Wudang on another day! ”
……
Several Taoist priests looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
"The Grandmaster is really back! Someone actually sent the Grandmaster back? This is amazing!"
"I heard that the man is in the guest room now. Do you want to go and have a look?"
"It's better not to go and send the Patriarch back. He is our guest in Wudang Mountain. He might be blamed by the leader."
……
Zhang Qilin didn't know it yet, but his name had begun to spread in Wudang Mountain. At this time, he was sitting on the chair in the guest room and sent a message to Zhang Hao: "Shopkeeper, the Wudang Patriarch has been delivered."
Not long after, Zhang Qilin's phone vibrated. It was a message from Zhang Hao. All I saw on the screen of the mobile phone was: "Okay, rest in Wudang Mountain for a few days. When the contract comes into effect, I will send you a message and then return to the inn. As for the corpse collection notices from other sects, the underworld pets have been sent to deliver the messages. It is expected that It’s about time it was delivered, no need to worry about it.”
……
Longhu Mountain. At night, when all the Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain were preparing to take a rest, a cat meowed suddenly.
"Meow..." The cat's meow seemed to come from afar, and seemed to be right outside their window. But no one cared about it at first. After all, there are all kinds of animals on Longhu Mountain, and it is not uncommon for a cat to run into a Taoist temple.
But after hearing this sound, many people lost their sleep.
Because this voice had a more or less cold aura, many people shuddered and wrapped themselves tightly in quilts.
Immediately afterwards, another cat meowed.
"Meow..." This time many people were completely sleepless, wondering where the wild cat kept meowing.
When they came to the window, they saw a heavy rain falling in the courtyard of the Taoist temple outside the window.
"Hey, hey, hey, come and take a look!" A Taoist priest shouted quickly.
Several other Taoist priests in the room asked lazily: "What's going on? I was shocked."
"There are a lot of paper money in the yard, come and take a look! It's still floating down from the sky, it doesn't look like it was scattered."
"Ah? No, this is Longhu Mountain, or the top of the mountain. What kind of wind can blow banknotes here?"
"I'm wondering too, come and take a look!" I saw all the Taoist priests in the house trotting to the window, and then I saw the paper money floating in the air outside the window falling like a downpour, falling into the courtyard, which was already covered with Taoist temples. path.
"Who is this? Come to our Longhu Mountain to throw ghost coins? How long do I have to clean tomorrow!"
"Don't worry about it for now. Don't you think it's strange that these banknotes are coming? It seems that no one has scattered them, so they appear inexplicably!"
"Hey, what's going on?"
"Don't investigate the reason yet, go and report it to Master Zhao!"
"..."
In fact, Zhao Tianshi had already noticed this abnormal situation without anyone reporting it. He hurried to the back of the Taoist temple and looked up at the falling coins in the sky, his face full of doubts.
"What on earth is going on?"
“Where did this paper money come from?”
"Does anyone dare to cause trouble on our Longhu Mountain?"
Zhao Tianshi frowned, and then bent down to pick up a Ming coin on the ground. Before he could take a closer look, a little Taoist priest came running out of breath, holding a few Ming coins in his hand, and shouted to Master Zhao Tianshi.
"Heavenly Master!"
"Heavenly Master!"
"Something happened, look quickly!"
The little Taoist priest ran to Zhao Tianshi and found that he was holding a ghost coin in his hand. Zhao Tianshi glanced at the little Taoist priest displeasedly and said:
"How many times have I told you, don't panic!"
"How can a Taoist cultivator be so impatient? When will a person as impatient as you be able to achieve positive results in cultivation?"
Tianshi Zhao shook his head, with reproach in his eyes. The little Taoist priest pointed at the Ming coins in Zhao Tianshi's hand and continued:
"That's not the case, Heavenly Master!"
"Look at the words on the banknote."
"It seems like the 'Yin Yang Inn'?"
Tianshi Zhao frowned when he heard this and whispered softly:
"Yin Yang Inn?"
"Why does this name sound so familiar?"
He looked at the Ming Coin carefully, and sure enough, the four ancient characters "Yin Yang Inn" were written on the front. Turning to the other side of the Hades Coin, I saw another line of small ancient characters:
【Yin Yang Inn】
【Fengmen Village, Luocheng City】
[On the fourteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, from Yin hour to Xu hour, come and collect the body of the ancestor of your sect]
[Don’t pick up too early, don’t wait after the due date! 】
[Those who hold this ghost coin, please go to Yin Yang Inn to welcome the corpse back to the mountain]
Seeing this line of small words, Zhao Tianshi's eyes seemed to become darker, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he suddenly said with enlightenment:
“Yin Yang Inn!”
"Isn't this the inn that Master Lin Jiu mentioned before?"
"Could these banknotes be scattered by people from Yin Yang Inn?"
He carefully examined the content on the Ming Coin again and muttered:
"Hiss..."
"My ancestor of Longhu Mountain?"
"Fellow Daoist Lin Jiu also mentioned the matter of the Patriarch last time. Is it really such a coincidence?"
Zhao Tianshi looked confused, and the little Taoist priest next to him couldn't help but ask:
"Tianshi, who is the Patriarch mentioned above?"
"Didn't our successive Heavenly Masters at Longhu Mountain all become immortals in the end?"
"There should be no remains left behind!"
"They asked us to collect the body, but whose body are they collecting?"
Zhao Tianshi nodded, and then said decisively:
"You are right and it is a good question."
"Whose body are you collecting?"
"The previous Heavenly Masters of Longhu Mountain have all become immortals after their death, so it is impossible to leave any remains."
"This Yin Yang Inn must be a trick to deceive people. I got a body from nowhere and said it was the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain."
"Hmph! It's so boring!"
When Lin Jiu visited last time, he said that the body of their heavenly master appeared on the ancient battlefield. At that time, Tianshi Zhao felt that Lin Jiu's words were extremely ridiculous, but since he was also a fellow Taoist, he did not expose it directly. (End of chapter)
