The wild branches and leaves on both sides of the embankment have all fallen, and the rugged branches are swaying in the autumn wind.
Leaves accumulated a thick layer on the embankment and on the gentle slope below.
At the bend of the embankment,
A small temple with half of its roof collapsed stood alone at the bottom of the slope.
Several wild trees around were showing their teeth and claws.
Inside the ruined temple,
'Red Dragon Master' used the collapsed head of the wild god statue in the temple as a bench, swept away the dust on the wild god's head, sat down, put the wooden box behind his back across his knees, took out a sword, and untied it from his waist.
I put a wine gourd in the room and poured some wine on a piece of silk cloth.
Wet the silk cloth,
Clean the seven swords.
As he wiped his sword,
While looking up at Su Wu who was cleaning fallen leaves and gravel in the temple,
The dead branches and leaves were gathered into a pile by Su Wu in the temple. 'Red Dragon Master' threw a talisman onto it. The talisman suddenly ignited and soon ignited the pile of leaves, forming a bonfire.
The bearded Taoist glanced at the quiet Su Wu next to him, placed an iron pot on the bonfire, and poured some wine into it.
When the wine boiled, wisps of mellow wine fragrance spread out in the temple.
The Taoist said to Su Wu: "Drink a little, warm yourself up, and dry your clothes by the fire later - get yourself ready, and the master will open the altar to allocate troops and horses to you later."
."
Su Wu looked at the dark iron pot on the fire, then raised his eyes and looked at the 'Red Dragon Master', and said: "Master, can you tell what kind of talisman I have given you? For example, the talisman I gave you is the same as the one in Lushan, Youzhou."
If the factions are fighting against each other, wouldn’t it be in vain if Master allocates troops and horses to me?”
Each of the three mountain dharma lineages has their own major talisman inheritance.
The Lushan sect is the ‘Zhenwulu’.
There is naturally a 'True Martial Barrage' in Su Wu's body. The reason why he said this now was because he wanted to see how much 'Red Dragon Master' could see through himself? Has he ever seen that in addition to the 'True Martial Barrier', he also has a 'True Martial Barrier'?
"Beidi Rui", "Yuanhuang Rui"?
"You were taught the 'True Martial Arts'.
As long as you have received the True Martial Arts Ceremony, I will be able to allocate the soldiers and horses in the altar to you. You don’t have to worry about this." Master Chilong put a few swords back into the wooden box and continued, "I will receive the second-grade Gaoshang Shenxiao Sanyuan San.
The official auxiliary sutra urn can best sense the breath of various talismans in the Three Mountains Dharma Lineage."
What Master Chilong said made Su Wu relax slightly.
The scriptures taught by the other party are the best at sensing the breath of various talismans in the Three Mountains Dharma Lineage.
But the 'Yuanhuang Rui' is no longer in the sequence of the three mountains of Daomen.
As for the 'Beidi Rui', if Master Chilong really senses it, he may say a few more words. However, judging from the current situation, he should not have sensed the existence of this Dao in Su Wu's body and the main cultivator of the Beidi Sect.
The talisman is also very different from the "Secret Talisman of the Northern Emperor to Suppress Demons and Kill Demons".
"It doesn't matter what kind of foot you were in the past.
Anyway, you are also a disciple of Xiuzhen Martial Arts. God ordered me to accept you as a disciple. I obeyed the destiny. From now on, it will be calamity or fate. It just depends on how destiny arranges it." Master Chilong took off the iron pot from the bonfire and gave it to
Su Wu poured a cup of boiling rice wine and put the iron pot on the bonfire.
He smelled the aroma of rice wine in the glass and was obviously a little greedy.
But can resist the temptation,
Wiping the sword with wine, Su Wu asked Su Wu to drink the wine, but he restrained his desire and did not take a sip.
"Master, don't you drink some wine?" Su Wu said politely to Master Chilong upon seeing this.
Master Chilong looked at the bamboo cup in his hand,
He shook his head: "Your master - my master passed away less than three months ago. I swore an oath before his death that I would not drink at all within three years after his death."
Su Wu heard this and stopped being polite.
The two people in the ruined temple fell silent.
The autumn wind outside the temple is desolate,
If you blow the wild trees around the ruined temple, the branches will sway and make a rustling sound.
"Since this place is close to the Min River, even if we are not in the Min area, we must be very close to the Min area." Su Wu took a few sips of rice wine and said slowly, "And you are the leader of Lushan Mountain in Youzhou.
Why do you want to come to Min, where the Lushan sect of the Minjiang River is located?"
Master Chilong looked down at the fire on the ground and said slowly: "In recent days, news from the Minjiang Lushan Sect has spread to the outside world, saying that it was formed by a gathering of rocks at the bottom of the Minjiang River system."
Zhenlu Mountain is about to appear."
Speaking of this festival, Master Chilong smiled coldly: "I came to see the excitement."
Without waiting for Su Wu to speak again,
He continued: "The Lushan sect of the Minjiang River specializes in the 'Martial Arts' and is connected with the 'Wugui Sect', 'Tu Jiao', 'Taoism', and 'Buddhism', but among them, the Daoism and Taoism sects account for the largest number.
All altars share the honor of "Master Xu Tianshi", so the Minjiang Lushan sect is still merged into the three mountains of Daomen.
After the establishment of the Lushan sect in Youzhou, it also absorbed many rituals and practices from the 'Witch Cult', the 'Secret Area Dharma Temple', and the 'Natural God Cult', but still used the Sanshan Talisman as its main deity, and taught from generation to generation.
After Cunjing, Youzhou Lushan has become a pure Taoist orthodox school.
Now there is news that the ‘True Lu Mountain’ will soon emerge from the Minjiang River.
This is a good thing,
It's also a bad thing.
The good thing is - if there is a Taoist inheritance in 'Zhen Lu Mountain', Minjiang Lu Mountain will still be included in the Three Mountains Dharma Lineage.
The bad thing is - if there is no Taoist sect inheritance in 'Zhen Lushan', witches and ghosts are rampant, and local teachings and techniques are everywhere. In the Minjiang Lushan sect, many Taoist sects and Taoist altars will be in danger."
"Perhaps the current situation is already detrimental to the Daoist Taoist altar in the Minjiang Lushan Sect?" Su Wu asked, looking at the worried look on the eyebrows of Master Chilong.
Master Chilong looked at him and grinned: "How did you get into the river? You don't remember.
——I think you were dazzled by the "Houwu Dharma Altar" in the Minjiang Lushan sect and sank into the Minjiang River. ——Before you, more than a dozen real corpses had floated down by the river I was guarding.
The 'River Float'.
They all have real weapons in their bodies,
They are all disciples of the Lushan Dharma lineage, and they have all become corpses."
"We both belong to the Minjiang Lushan Dharma lineage and are fighting with each other. Do we have to be so vicious?" Su Wu frowned slightly.
In the same dharma lineage,
Because they have different Taoist sects and different philosophies, they can compete with each other to such an extent that they wish they could wipe out the other sect. If they belong to different sects, the fight between them will be even more terrifying!
"The Minjiang Lushan sect's magic techniques are overbearing, and practitioners all aim to kill their opponents and imprison Li Gui. Once you go to the Taoist altar, you will die or I will die." Master Chilong shook his head, "
Since both sides are starting to fight, one of them is bound to fall.
This is the style of the Lushan sect of the Minjiang River.
It can't be said to be cruel.
——Among this sect, there are many Taoist altars that have absorbed the Buddhist Lingshan Dharma, worshiping Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva as the deity on the altar, and can invite the "two generals of gain and loss" among the ghosts of the six heavens.
The boys sent the real gods to fight. Every year, they led the gods to travel on the first day of the first lunar month, the fifteenth of June, and the fifteenth of the seventh month. They always fought with each other, killing and injuring dozens or hundreds of people.
Sometimes Li Gui from outside the altar is summoned by mistake.
Then more people will die.”
"..." Su Wu was silent for a moment and asked Master Chilong, "Then Master came to Fujian this time with the intention of correcting the Taoism of the Taoism?"
"Absolutely." Master Chilong nodded.
"Master, what are you going to do?
How can we subdue all the Taoist altars and respect the Dharma of the Three Mountains?" Su Wu asked again.
"Of course we have to fight with them.
Cut down mountains and destroy temples, and wipe out evil worshippers."
"In the Lushan Dharma lineage of Youzhou, only one master has come here, and the other high-level masters have not followed?"
"The rest are dead,
There’s only one left.”
Hearing what Master Chilong said, Su Wu was surprised for a moment and raised his head to look at him: "They are all dead? How could it be like this?"
"Before my master passed away, he regarded me as the leader of the Dharma Lineage of Lushan Mountain in Youzhou. My senior brothers were not convinced and said that I was a bandit first and not upright, and then became a monk with dishonest intentions. Only later did I become my master.
Those who serve as Taoist priests are slaves of the three surnames.
How can I bear this statement?
Just fight with them -" Chilong Zhenren smacked his lips, as if he was still recalling the fight with his fellow disciples, "They are too useless. They are also refining soldiers and generals, they are also sharpening swords and practicing techniques, and they are also 'righteous'
The practice of bag',
They practiced it more than ten years before me,
But they are all inferior to me.
So some people died on the altar, some had their talismans cut off and lost all their cultivation, and some became disheartened and packed up their clothes and left."
"So, in the end, not even a single person was left?" Su Wu couldn't help but ask again.
Chilong Zhenren shook his head: "There are still more than ten young Taoist boys, as well as a few old women who used to sweep the mountain gate. They have never passed on the teachings. Before I left the mountain gate, I asked them to guard it.
Mountain gate, just lean on the mountain and eat the mountain.
When I go back,
It is estimated that not a single person will be left.”
"Isn't there any disciple who is willing to follow Master?"
Su Wu was speechless secretly.
Thinking of the master I have never met before,
If that master had known about what the 'Red Dragon Master' was doing, I wonder what his reaction would be?
Do you regret passing on the teaching authority to your master?
Or,
That master had actually predicted what would happen to Lushan in Youzhou after his death, so he simply handed over the power of teaching directly to the 'Red Dragon Master' in order to 'defeat and establish' the sect?
Master Chilong heard Su Wu's question, shook his head, and said: "At that time, I fought with many peers and elder Taoist priests, killed a group of people, scared away a group of people, and some people turned to Chaoyang Palace on Lu Mountain.
, Yushan Sect and other Taoist and Buddhist sects.
But in fact, there are still some people who, seeing the profoundness and majesty of my Taoism, want to worship me as their teacher and learn the same Taoism as me. They also think that if they come under my seat at a time when the court is deserted, they may be able to get some preferential treatment from me -
—
I thought they were annoying, so I drove them all away."
"...Teaching students is always an annoying thing.
Since Master finds such things annoying,
Why do you want to accept me as your disciple now?" Su Wu asked.
"I thought it was annoying at the time. Later, a certain person traveled a long distance from Youzhou to Fujian. After being alone for a long time, he felt boring. It would be nice to have a companion to talk to.
I happened to have another fortune telling that someone could pick up a disciple by this river.
Just let nature take its course." Master Chilong said with an indifferent expression.
