Chapter 5 Qingyun Temple

"Remember and can't remember, that's your luck..."

The Dharma is not passed on easily. If it weren't for the lone wolf that brought great opportunities to Li Daoyi, Li Daoyi wouldn't have passed on the Dharma for the first time on a wolf.

Using his own essence to leave traces of cultivation in the lone wolf's body, Li Daoyi left.

The lone wolf lay on the ground, with his forelimbs in a kneeling position, his eyes closed, and he fell asleep.

The moon is in the sky, and Li Daoyi is on his way home.

"This is......"

"Kongming Mountain..."

On a huge rock about three meters high and two meters wide, there are three big characters written in flying dragons and phoenixes. Years and months are too long, the sun and moon are eroding, and they are in the deep mountains, and the handwriting is already a little blurred.

Li Daoyi knew very well the meaning of the three words Kongming Mountain.

The mountain where Qingxu Temple is located is nameless, and the ancestor of Qingxu Temple was born in Qingyun Temple on Kongming Mountain.

This is where the Taoist sect of Qingxu Temple comes from, and this is not what Li Daoyi was surprised. Li Daoyi was surprised: "This place is three hundred miles away from Qingxu Temple!"

"It is said that the immortal gods travel to the sea and the evening of Cangwu. Although I am in the realm of Qi refining, I have gone so far without realizing it..."

Li Daoyi did not deliberately calculate the distance when chasing the lonely wolf and looking for spiritual roots.

When he embarked on the road of cultivation, he slowly ignored the power without even realizing it.

Standing in the mountains and forests, Li Daoyi looked around. The Qingyun Temple seemed to have no traces. It is rumored that hundreds of years ago, this place was once a Taoist holy land with three thousand Taoist temples.

Now, the mountains and forests are densely packed, the Taoist temple used to be...

"clang..."

A bell rang, and Li Dao was stunned.

Looking to the west, Li Daoyi walked quickly.

For more than an hour, a dilapidated Taoist temple appeared in front of me on a low mountain.

When the bell rings in the middle of the night, there will be a major event.

At this time, there were a few anxious voices in the Taoist temple.

Li Daoyi didn't hear it very clearly. He walked closer and saw clearly the plaque in front of the Taoist temple door: "Qingyun Temple..."

The Taoist temples in the past three thousand may be a bit exaggerated. This describes the peak of incense here. Now, the grand occasion is gone, and Qingyun Temple has declined.

Just by seeing through the old Taoist temple, you can see the dilemma of Qingyun Temple's living conditions.

"Squeak..."

Suddenly, the door of the Taoist temple opened and a Taoist priest opened the door of the Taoist temple.

The Taoist priest who opened the Taoist temple gate was startled when he opened the door and saw Li Daoyi standing in front of the door. If the lights in front of the Taoist temple were not quite bright, he could have seen Li Daoyi's appearance clearly, he might have closed the door.

"This fellow Taoist..."

"Li Daoyi, a Qingxu Temple, was accidentally passed by here and was attracted by the sound of Guiguan bell..."

The middle-aged Taoist priest sighed: "Fellow Taoist is here at the right time. I, the master of Guanguan, was in seclusion for five years, and finally realized the great way. Therefore, I ring the bell and summoned my disciples to listen to the great way..."

Understand the great way?!

Li Daoyi felt a little more thoughts: "In this era, I am not the only one who has the opportunity to practice Taoism?"

There was an extra space for growth in his inexplicable mind. Li Daoyi did not think he was very outstanding. Compared with the old Taoist practiced for many years, there were countless people who were better than him in terms of status and understanding of Tao.

"Fellow Taoists come here and have a destiny. Why not come in and listen to the great way?"

Li Daoyi hadn't heard anyone else's preaching, and wanted to understand how far this enlightened Qingshan Zhenren Taoist Dharma reached, so he nodded: "Thank you..."

After all, Kongming Mountain was once glorious. Qingyun Temple was the sect altar base in Kongming Mountain and had a great influence. Now hundreds of years have passed, the Taoist temple here has long become soil, and Qingyun Temple still exists.

It is a bit dilapidated, but it covers a very wide area.

I thought that in the era of technological civilization, Qingyun Temple would be like other Taoist temples. Even if they were passed down and left behind, they would not be able to continue their glory.

After entering the Taoist temple, Li Daoyi knew that he was wrong.

There are nearly a hundred Taoist priests gathering here!

These Taoist priests were dressed neatly, stretching their heads in groups of three or two to speak. Although the voice was small, Li Daoyi could hear it clearly: "This time the master realized the Tao, and the ranking of Qingyun Temple is coming up again."

"I heard that only Wudang and several thousand-year-old Taoist temples in Laoshan have several real people who have realized the Tao as well as masters..."

"A few years ago, the master led his disciples to attend the Northern Taoist Dharma Assembly, and it is said that he did not have any chance to speak. In the Northern Taoist Dharma Assembly in July, Qingyun Temple will definitely make a splash."

It is said that although Li Daoyi was raised by Yunshang Zhenren in Taoist temple since childhood, he started to go to school at the age of five, and started working after graduating from college. In addition, Yunshang Zhenren rarely tells Li Daoyi's affairs, and he has not participated in Taoist affairs, so Li Dao felt foggy when he heard it.

One thing is certain that the competition in Taoism is more intense than any profession.

"Senior Brother, the altar has been built, and the temple has been Dali. Just wait for the master to take a shower and change his clothes and pay homage to the ancestors, and then you can start the lecture..."

"There are some details that need to be handled by the senior brother himself."

Li Daoyi was surprised that the middle-aged Taoist priest who opened the door turned out to be Senior Brother Qingyunguan.

"Fellow Taoist, please find a place to listen to the Tao. I still have something to do, so I won't entertain the Taoist fellow..."

The eldest brother left a sentence and hurriedly left.

Frowning, although Li Daoyi didn't care about this negligence, he felt a little uncomfortable.

The Taoist sect has a strict hierarchy and attaches great importance to identity and status. Thinking about Qingyun Temple, the real person in Qingshan, has already understood the great way and strives to be ranked in the northern Taoist sect. He, a sage master of a small Taoist sect, will naturally not be seen in his eyes.

There are many special preachings in the opening ceremony, which is completely different from the opening ceremony.

First of all, the platform needs to be three feet, six inches and nine minutes high, nine feet long, and six feet, six inches wide. There are no special requirements for the material, and the forum of Qingyunguan is made of wood.

In addition, there are thirty-six directions on the forum, and thirty-six candles are lit, thirty-six incense sticks are placed, and worship them to God.

The futon on the forum is also different from the ordinary futon. It is painted with blue sky and white clouds. It is a crane in the middle, and the surrounding dragons are coiled. The futon needs to be three inches and three minutes thick and one foot and nine inches in diameter.

As the saying goes, preaching is a secret that reveals the world. When it comes to auxiliary things, it must conform to the number of heaven and earth. Otherwise, preaching people will find it difficult to withstand the backlash.

In addition, before preaching, the preacher needs to take a bath and change his clothes and pay homage to all the ancestors.

Before the preaching began, Li Daoyi learned a lot.

The Qingxu View is a view of avoiding the world and staying away from the world. Naturally, it is impossible to have the opportunity to let Li Daoyi come into contact with such a grand event.

In front of the forum, there are nearly a hundred cushions, nine in rows.

Li Daoyi naturally did not compete for seats with the Qingyunguan disciples and sat in the corner.

No one paid attention to him, and he also ended up being quiet and at ease.

In front of the forum, Taoist priests in Qingyun Temple sat cross-legged and waited quietly. Unexpectedly, when everyone was sitting on the cushion, no one spoke.

"Gagu..."

Suddenly, a snoring sound broke the tranquility.

"Huiming!"

A low shout came and the snoring stopped abruptly.

A young Taoist priest tilted his body and rolled onto the ground. He opened his eyes and stretched out his hands to beat his legs. He sat cross-legged for a long time. His legs were already numb and his back was sore.

As Taoist priests, they all need to practice static skills. That is, sitting cross-legged. Some older Taoist priests can sit for several hours in a row. This little Taoist priest obviously lacks static skills.

After a few hammers, the little Taoist priest quickly got up and sat back. However, the little Taoist priest would clearly grin, and it was obvious that the numbness of his legs had not been completely relieved.

The waiting time was long. The Qingshan Zhenren had a long time to take a bath and change clothes, or they didn't know what they prepared before the preaching. It was not until dawn that the Qingshan Zhenren, holding a whisk in his hands, his hair and beard were white. He finally appeared in a brand new Taoist robe.
