The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 1863 Quanzhen Temple

The next morning, when Feng Jiuxiao, Yuan Zishan, La Jiao, Chang Zijin and Erni arrived at "Feiyunzhai", they saw Du Ruhui and thirty Northwest Wolf Soldiers had been waiting there for a long time!

Yu Qingzi came out of Feiyunzhai at this time and said with a smile, "Young man, are you here?" He actually came earlier! This made Feng Jiuxiao feel a little sorry, "Master, you got up too early, didn't you?"

Yu Qingzi smiled and said, "Even if you hadn't come to Qingcheng Mountain, I would have gotten up this early! Please come in!"

"Okay!" Feng Jiuxiao and others immediately filed in.

The breakfast was simple and exquisite. The rice was as fragrant as white jade, the pickled cucumbers and orange carrots were sour and sweet, and the warm lotus seed soup warmed the stomach, which made everyone praise it. Chili even ate three bowls of rice!

Erni looked towards the south, feeling lost. Pang Shiwu, Zeng Yong, and Big Wolf had already left Qingcheng Mountain. Chang Zijin shook Erni's hand and smiled softly, "La Jiao is not worried, so what are you worried about?"

Upon hearing this, Erni had to force a smile and pretend to be calm.

She looked at La Jiao, who was eating voraciously. How could she look frightened? If she hadn't known that the relationship between Pang Shiwu and La Jiao was almost clear, she would have even suspected that La Jiao didn't care about Pang Shiwu at all! But in fact, everyone knew that La Jiao cared about Pang Shiwu! At the same time, everyone also knew that La Jiao was Pang Shiwu's Achilles' heel!

Judging from La Jiao's current state, she is not worried about Pang Shiwu at all, and seems to have great confidence in the three of them! The key is, where does her confidence come from?

After dinner, Yu Qingzi led everyone to tour Qingcheng Mountain!

"Young man, where do you want to start?"

"Everything is up to the Taoist priest!"

"Then just go with the flow and take it as it comes!"

"Row!"

The first landscape is Quanzhen Temple!

Quanzhen Temple is located on the hillside of Longjugang, Qinglongling. It was originally Longju Temple. It is now divided into Cihang Hall, Qizhen Hall and Wuzu Building.

On the left side of Quanzhen Temple is the steep and long Zhangren Peak, and on the right side is the winding and beautiful Feixiangang.

The surrounding environment is quiet, with tea gardens and kiwi fruit forests, streams winding down the paths, and temples standing majestically among the lush trees. It is truly a good place to cultivate one's body and mind.

Entering the Quanzhen Temple, Yu Qingzi and Feng Jiuxiao walked in front, followed by the others, and Du Ruhui and the thirty wolf soldiers followed at the end at a proper distance. Du Ruhui was very careful and didn't want these wolf soldiers to get too close to the women to avoid any misunderstandings.

The so-called gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall!

Subordinates should not get close to their superiors’ family members!

If yellow mud falls into your crotch, it’s either shit or shit!

Cihang Hall, Qizhen Hall and Wuzu Building look like one building from the front, but the front hall, Cihang Hall, is a separate hall, where Cihang Zhenren is enshrined.

Looking at the statue of Cihang Taoist, Feng Jiuxiao said: "When I was a child, I was very curious about Cihang Taoist. I wondered if he belonged to Buddhism or Taoism? Was he a man or a woman? What is the relationship between him and Guanyin Bodhisattva? Why do they look similar, and both hold a pure bottle, and there are willow branches in the pure bottle?"

Yu Zhenzi smiled and said, "Oh? So what do you think now, young man?"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "I read some books later and gained some understanding. The Taoist classic "The Complete History of Gods and Immortals of All Dynasties" records: There is a female Zhen in the Chaoyin Cave of Putuo Luojia Rock. During the Shang Dynasty, she practiced Taoism here and obtained supernatural powers. She vowed to save men and women in the world. She used elixirs and nectar to help people. People in the South China Sea called her Cihang Dashi. This shows that Cihang Taoist should be a woman! The Buddhist classic "Lingbao Sutra" quoted a story, saying that there was a royal girl named Yin who was born speechless and was abandoned by the royal family since childhood. , after going through many disasters, she met a god and showed her divine power, helped the country resolve the crisis and then left. This shows that Guanyin is a woman. In addition, the Buddhist classic "Saddharmapuṇṭhāna Sūtra" says that Guanyin was originally the eldest son of the ancient Indian Sankranti Kingdom's chakravartin, Wuzhennian, named Bumin, and was a man. So now we have come to a preliminary conclusion that Taoist Cihang is a Taoist god, a woman! And Guanyin is a Buddhist god, but some people say she is a woman, and some people say she is a man, right, Taoist priest?"

"Correct!"

"I have another guess!"

"Speaking!"

"Taoist Cihang and Bodhisattva Guanyin, I have a guess. I think these two people are most likely the same person."

Yu Qingzi was startled, then laughed and said, "Young man, your guess is quite bold! How is this possible? Taoist Cihang is a Taoist deity, and Guanyin is a Buddhist bodhisattva. What you said is a bit... deafening!"

"Haha, deafening? You want to say shocking, right? Don't consider my face, just shocking if it's shocking!"

Yu Qingzi smiled and said, "Haha! Shocking! Shocking! Incredible! Unbelievable!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Alright, Taoist priest, stop praising me! Du Fu wrote a good poem: If you don't say something shocking, you will die! But I don't have the ability or the mind to make alarmist statements! I'm just telling the truth!"

Yuan Zishan suddenly said coldly: "Tell me the truth? You said two unrelated people are the same person! What are you thinking? Taoist Cihang is a deity of our Chinese people in Jiuzhou! She is the only female deity among the twelve golden immortals of Taoism! And Guanyin is a Western Buddhist Bodhisattva! And you just said that it is unclear whether this Guanyin is a man or a woman. What basis do you have to say that they are the same person? How can they be the same person?!"

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "Everything is possible! Although one of them is wearing Buddhist robes and the other is wearing Taoist robes, they both hold a pure bottle and a willow branch. They could really be the same person! It's just that rumors spread in later generations, and gradually they became two sects and gods, and were worshipped by both Buddhism and Taoism!"

Yuan Zishan said coldly: "How can a Bodhisattva become a golden immortal? There should be a limit to your nonsense!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "The images of gods and immortals we see now are actually passed down by our ancestors. Who can guarantee that those who left behind the portraits have definitely seen gods and immortals with their own eyes?"

Yu Qingzi smiled and said, "What Young Master Feng said actually makes sense! There is indeed a possibility that those who have seen immortals may not necessarily be able to paint, and those who can paint may not have seen immortals. So those who have seen immortals orally narrate, and those who can paint verbally describe and draw the portraits of immortals, which inevitably leads to distortion and misunderstanding. Over time, rumors spread, and anything is possible!"

Feng Jiuxiao immediately smiled and said, "Master, you understand me!"

Yuan Zishan sneered: "Huh!"

She turned to look at Yu Qingzi, "Master, may I ask, is this statue considered Buddhist or Taoist?"

Isn't this obvious? The statues of gods are enshrined on famous Taoist mountains and in Taoist temples. This is not Taoism.

Yu Qingzi pretended to examine the statue again, then said with a smile: "The statue is wearing my Taoist Haoran scarf on its head, and there is no swastika on its chest, so it must be my Taoist deity!"

"Is that a boy or a girl?"

"Female!"

"Sure?"

"Yes!"

Yuan Zishan looked at Feng Jiuxiao coldly again, but said nothing.

But everyone felt the boundless pressure! Although Yuan Zishan did not speak, everyone knew what she meant: Look, a Buddha and a Taoist, even a man and a woman, how could they be the same person!

At this moment, Du Ruhui felt a chill on his spine!

Is this Miss Yuan really so scary when she gets cruel?

Thinking of the fact that the Deputy Envoy lives in such a depressed state every day, Du Ruhui couldn't help but sigh to himself: The envoy is really pitiful!

Yu Qingzi smiled awkwardly at this time.

He also did not expect that Yuan Zishan would suddenly lose her temper and "accuse" Feng Jiuxiao in public. He felt that Feng Jiuxiao would most likely feel humiliated. Even if he would not be furious, he would at least look embarrassed and be depressed!

Unexpectedly, Feng Jiuxiao was like nothing happened, and actually laughed out loud: "As the saying goes: The deeper the love, the more severe the blame. My wife has always been like this. She will hold me accountable if I make a mistake! She is just concerned about me, but she is just too strong! Taoist priest, please don't misunderstand!"

Yu Qingzi laughed dryly and said, "No misunderstanding, no misunderstanding." His face was full of sympathy, as if he saw a terminally ill lunatic, whose mind was no longer normal, but still thought he was extremely smart!

Yuan Zishan snorted coldly and said, "Who cares about you?"

Chang Zijin smiled and said, "The Taoist priest certainly wouldn't misunderstand. Everyone knows that our sister Zishan has strict family education! Haha! If one day sister Zishan doesn't care about Master Feng anymore, Master Feng will probably become an ant on a hot pot, running around everywhere; a fly without a head, flying around everywhere! At that time, he will be really miserable!"

Erni thought: It has started again! What she meant by the beginning was naturally the open and covert struggle between Chang Zijin and Yuan Zishan!

Yuan Zishan didn't mind the hidden meaning in Chang Zijin's words at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sister Zijin. Even if he runs to the ends of the earth, I can still catch him back! Want to run? No way!"

Yu Qingzi was suddenly stunned: Miss Chang's words have hidden meanings, and Miss Yuan's words are even more ambiguous!

How domineering is the sentence "You can't run away"? It seems to be "threatening" Feng Jiuxiao, but in fact it is publicly expressing his loyalty to Feng Jiuxiao, and at the same time seems to be declaring the boundary to Chang Zijin!

Only then did he realize that there was something subtle between the crowd!

He then noticed that Chang Zijin was standing next to Feng Jiuxiao, and very close to him! They were almost touching each other!

Yuan Zishan looked at Chang Zijin with a complicated look!

At that moment, he, a cultivator, suddenly understood why Yuan Zishan suddenly got so angry!

The reason she was angry at Feng Jiuxiao wasn’t actually because Feng Jiuxiao was wrong!

She suddenly got angry just because Chang Zijin actually walked up to Feng Jiuxiao! He was so close to her!

Yu Qingzi then remembered that when Feng Jiuxiao talked to him about Taoist Cihang, Chang Zijin naturally came over, but everything went smoothly at the time, so Yu Qingzi didn't notice anything wrong!

But now, Yu Qingzi understood everything!

He is pursuing the pursuit of having no desires and no demands, not that he does not understand love between men and women!

He never expected that this Miss Chang also liked Young Master Feng!

But based on his observation, Miss Chang is likely to have a bumpy road in love and a bleak future!

His mind raced and he immediately said with a smile, "Please come this way, everyone! Seven True Palace!" He didn't care about everyone's reaction and walked up first!

He believed that as long as he took the lead, Feng Jiuxiao and others would naturally follow, and then the awkwardness of the situation would be resolved a lot!

Sure enough, everyone caught up with me one after another.

The Qizhen Hall is located above the Cihang Hall when viewed from the front, but when viewed from the side, the two halls are not actually on a vertical line, but are staggered front to back. The flat ground in front of the Qizhen Hall is level with the eaves of the Cihang Hall.

There is a plaque on the main door of the hall with three big characters "Qizhen Hall" inscribed on it, a plaque on the left side reads "Dao Zai Qiankun" and a plaque on the right side reads "Dao Shi Wei Ma"!

After entering the hall, Yu Zhenzi began to introduce the Seven Sons of Quanzhen one by one! Feng Jiuxiao seemed to be not very interested and did not express any opinions.

Yu Qingzi immediately led everyone to continue walking upwards, where they reached the Five Patriarchs Tower.

The Wuzu Building is built on top of the Qizhen Hall, and is integrated with the Qizhen Hall, more like a two-story building. The Qizhen Hall is the first floor, and the Wuzu Building is the second floor.

The Five Ancestors Building enshrines five Taoist emperors.

Emperor Donghua, Chunyang, Han Zhongli, Liu Haichan, and Wang Chongyang.

Yu Qingzi saw that Feng Jiuxiao was not in high spirits and knew that he was afraid of rekindling Yuan Zishan's anger. However, it would be too awkward if he didn't say anything, so he took the initiative to bring up the topic and asked, "Young man, do you know the legend of these five emperors?"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Of course I've heard of it, but I'm not very clear about it. Please enlighten me, Taoist Priest!"

Du Ruhui and others looked at each other.

The deputy envoy suddenly became indifferent to this and that. It seemed that he had been scolded by Miss Yuan and dared not say a word! Who would believe the deputy envoy who said that he did not understand the Five Emperors? Who didn't know that he was proficient in Taoist knowledge?

Yu Qingzi smiled and said, "Then I will tell the story in order!" No matter what, there can't be a dull moment!

He pointed to the statue of Emperor Donghua. "Emperor Donghua is also called Dong Wanggong. In the Han Dynasty, he was considered the Yang God in the "Yin and Yang" and the corresponding Yin God, Queen Mother of the West. He had no father or mother. But in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Ge Hong believed that both the Duke and the Queen Mother were born to Pangu the Great and Taiyuan Holy Mother, but some people also said that he was formed by the innate Donghua Qi."

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Which statement do you prefer, Taoist Priest?" Still no opinion!

Yu Qingzi smiled and said, "It's better to say which statement you prefer than which person you prefer! I personally prefer Ge Hong!"

Chang Zijin interrupted, "I heard that later generations believed that the Emperor Donghua was in charge of all men who had ascended to heaven and was in charge of the immortal records. They also gave him the Taoist title of "Fusang Emperor" and believed that he had the attributes of the sun god, is that right, Taoist priest?"

Yu Qingzi nodded and smiled, "Yes! I didn't expect Miss Chang to know this story. It seems that she has read a lot of Taoist classics!"

Chang Zijin smiled and said, "I dabble in it occasionally."

Yu Qingzi laughed and said, "The Eastern Wasteland Classic records that there is a large stone chamber in the Eastern Wasteland Mountain, where the Eastern King lives. He is ten feet tall, with white hair, a human-like face and a tiger's tail. He carries a black bear and looks around. He always plays pot-tossing with a jade girl. Each time, they toss a thousand and two hundred times. If someone fails to get in, the sky sighs; if someone gets out but escapes, the sky laughs."

"When the Southern and Northern sects were preparing to merge, they both scrambled to find their ancestor, and finally all agreed that Dong Wanggong was their common ancestor!"

"The Southern Dynasty's True Spirit Position Chart places Dong Wang Gong on the left side of Shangqing, with the title Taiwei Dongxia Fusang Danlin Great Emperor Shangdaojun. This shows Dong Wang Gong's attributes as a sun god."

Everyone nodded.

Yu Qingzi pointed to the statue next to him and said, "This is the Pure Yang Zhenren, Lü Ge, Lü Yan, with the courtesy name Dongbin, the pseudonyms Chunyangzi and Yankezi. He called himself Hui Dao Ren and went by his courtesy name. He was known as Lü Dongbin in the world. He was from Hezhong Prefecture, Puzhou, Hedong in the Tang Dynasty. He was the founder of the Danding School and the Wonderful Dao Tianzun. Lü Dongbin studied under Zhongli Quan, and later taught Liu Haichan and Wang Chongyang. He was revered by the Quanzhen Taoism as one of the "Five Northern Ancestors" and one of the "Eight Immortals". He is known as "Emperor Fuyou", "Lü Chunyang", "Master Chunyang", "Lord Enzhu", "Immortal Lord", "Lü Zu", etc. He is also one of the "Five Wenchangs" and is often worshipped together with Guan Gong, Master Zhuyi, Kuixing and Emperor Wenchang."

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "Master Chunyang has so many names and titles!"

Yu Qingzi also smiled and said, "That's right!"

At this time, Du Ruhui asked, "I heard that Master Chunyang's swordsmanship is unparalleled and he is the best swordsman in the world?"

Yu Qingzi said, "That's right! Legend has it that Master Chunyang was originally a Confucian scholar. It was not until he was forty that he met Master Huolong, who taught him swordsmanship. When he was sixty-four, he met Zhongli Quan, who taught him inner alchemy. He then mastered the art of Taoism and saved all living beings. He was revered as the Sword Ancestor and Sword Immortal by the world!"

"Then how did he become the leader of the sword immortals?"

"Because he later learned the Tiandun Sword Technique!"

"Because he learned the Tiandun Sword Technique, he became the leader of the Sword Immortals?"

"Not bad!"

"Then it seems that this Tiandun Sword Technique is extremely powerful!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "If you want to sharpen your sword, you must work hard. In the early morning, the jade dragon howls when you open the box. The spirit in your hand is three feet of ice, and there is a spirit snake on the stone."

Du Ruhui was stunned, "This poem seems familiar..." He knew that Feng Jiuxiao always hated people who flattered him, so he didn't dare to "guess" that this was the masterpiece of the deputy envoy!

Feng Jiuxiao said: "This is the poem written by Lü Zu, the 'Sword Poem'!"
