Chapter 99 The Legend of the Celestial Master
Stopping at the height of the cloud, who knows that I don't care about everything.Dreaming of the east window, chatting with Fuer's ear, and wanting to write a letter.In an instant, the wind was angry, and the pen and inkstone were turned upside down, and the sky only taught me to be lazy.What's the matter, the poems are urgently urged, and the clouds are dark.

——Excerpt from Xin Qiji from "Yong Yu Le · Tossing the Old Empty Mountain"
……

Seeing Bai Fu standing in front of this stele for a long time, thinking deeply, Mrs. Xu said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the calligrapher Wang Xizhi has some connections with you in Qingcheng:

Wang Xizhi's sons were named: Xuanzhi, Ningzhi, Huizhi, Caozhi, and Xianzhi; his grandsons were named: Zhenzhi and Jingzhi.In Wang Xizhi's generation, there are 22 names with the character "Zhi", [-] names with the character "Zhi" in the descendants, [-] grandchildren, [-] great-grandchildren, and [-] great-great-grandchildren. There are four grandchildren of the fifth generation.

Why don't the descendants of Wang Xi avoid family taboos?There is a big secret hidden here, a secret related to Zhang Liang, the Marquis of the Western Han Dynasty. "Xu Taifu deliberately kept it a secret.

Bai Fu asked curiously, "What secret is related to Qingcheng?"

Xu Taifu said: "The reason why Wang Xi's descendants do not shy away from taboos is because they are all members of Tianshidao. The "" is a code and a badge. Zhang Daoling, Zhang Tianshi, the founder of Tianshidao, is Zhang Liang's eighth grandson, and also you. The founder of Qingcheng Zhengyi."

Bai Fuxi listened to the allusion, clapped his hands and said happily: "Uncle Xu, please teach me."

Xu Taifu said: "Zhang Daoling, styled Fu Han, is the eighth grandson of Zhang Liang, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty.

Zhang Zu was very intelligent since he was a child, and he learned from others when he was an adult.But he has no intention of being an official, traveling to famous mountains and rivers, visiting Taoism and seeking immortality.

Ancestor Zhang retreated to Beiman Mountain to practice Taoism. One day, he met an embroidered emissary in the mountain and told him: "In the stone room of Zhongfeng, there are "Secret Code of Three Emperors" and "Book of the Yellow Emperor's Jiuding Dan". If you get it and practice it, you can ascend to heaven!" ’ So Zhang Zu fasted and entered the stone chamber, and he got the Danjing and Daoshu, so he went to Yunjin Mountain, Guixi County, Jiangxi Province, to meditate and practice.

Yunjin Mountain has a quiet scenery and is the habitat of ancient immortals.Zhang Zu lived in a hut on the mountain, and built an altar to refine the Nine Heavens God Pill.Three years later, the pill was completed and the dragon and the tiger met, so Yunjin Mountain is also called Longhu Mountain.

Once the pill was successfully taken, Zhang Zu scored the technique of dispersing shapes and shadows.The power changes, sitting standing and dying, every time in the pond, in the chanting hall, hiding a few pairs of guests, chanting with sticks, and going together for a while, no one can fathom its supernatural power.

Then in the Bilu Cave of Xixianyuan in the northeast of Longhu Mountain, Zhang Zu obtained the secret text of Shenhu and the art of commanding the gods of the mountain, which has been proven.So Zhang Zu established the Celestial Master Cottage to spread the word to his disciples and heal people.

Zhang Zu heard that the people of Shu were very kind and easy to teach, and that the famous mountains were good for teaching, so he decided to go to Bashu.Later, he heard that miasma in Bashu was harmful to people, and the people were trapped by disease and epidemic disasters, so Zhang Zu made up his mind to enter Shu at the age of [-] and [-], and use talismans and pills to treat people's diseases, so as to benefit the people, eliminate harm and prosper. Zuo Guoyoumin.

In the first year of Yongshou in the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Zu founded Zhengyimeng Weidao, or Zhengdao for short, in Heming Mountain, Bashu.Because those who follow the Tao must produce five buckets of rice, it is also called the five buckets of rice.

Zhang Zu is the first generation of celestial master of Wudoumi religion, so the believers respectfully call him "ancestor celestial master".People also call it "Tianshi Tao".

At that time, in the area of ​​Bashu, the aboriginal Ba people believed in primitive witchcraft, and carried out large-scale prostitution and sacrifices to harm the people.These Dharma wizards who worship ghosts and demons gather crowds to amass wealth and do all kinds of evil.

Zhang Zu and his two disciples, Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng, put down the Lich Cult that harmed the common people.The people of Bashu were grateful for the kindness of the celestial master, so they wrote it as the legend that Zhang celestial master defeated the ghost soldiers with the sword and seal talisman of the Taishang Laojun.

  Throwing in the old empty mountain, Wan Song's hands are planted, the government is sighing.When will it become cloudy, how old will I be, it seems to be too late to see my children and grandchildren.In ancient times, the pool hall, cloud tobacco thorns, made future generations miserable.I think that the good time in those days is already hated, and the night is full of wine and empty people.

  Stopping at the height of the cloud, who knows that I don't care about everything.Dreaming of the east window, chatting with Fuer's ear, and wanting to write a letter.In an instant, the wind was angry, and the pen and inkstone were turned upside down, and the sky only taught me to be lazy.What's the matter, the poems are urgently urged, and the clouds are dark.
