Chapter 1 The Imperial Academy of Writing
In the Hanlin Academy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a young man was writing on the pre-counter, and the table was filled with rare ancient scriptures.
Yang Qingyuan, who originally graduated with a master's degree from the University of Finance and Economics and Law in Southeast and Northwest, became a grassroots prosecutor. When he came home from get off work, he planned to study Ma Zhe and Deng Lun, something that was not very consistent with materialist values happened.
In scientific terms, it was the location where Yang Qingyuan was located that created a singular point, which expanded into a wormhole, and he was just involved in the turbulence of time and space.
In metaphysical terms, he traveled through time.
When Yang Qingyuan woke up, he arrived at the Zhenwu Hall of Wudang Mountain, and the person also turned into a young man.
By chance, Yang Qingyuan joined the Wudang Sect.
This is a magically modified world.
There are many sects of Yuanmeng outside the Great Wall, the Palace of Demonic Masters, the Tantric Buddhism, and the Vajra Sect.
The Central Plains martial arts world is emerging one after another.
This world is similar and different from Blue Star. If you don’t mention it, the vast territory alone is far better than the Blue Star in the previous life.
There is the vitality of heaven and earth in this world. Human masters can practice martial arts. True martial arts masters can play a thousand horses with one horse and thousands of troops can fight against you.
In addition, there are masters and craftsmen who are proficient in inscriptions and mechanisms. The two religions of Buddhism and Taoism have secret techniques passed down from generation to generation. Outside China, there are also magical hidden worlds in the eight desolates and four realms.
Perhaps because of the daily welfare of time travelers, Yang Qingyuan got a pair of Taoist pupils given by God, and he was very clear about his own roots and bones, and he had great understanding of martial arts. He made his way through martial arts a thousand miles a day.
But after three years of practicing martial arts on Wudang Mountain, Yang Qingyuan became confused about his future. Learning martial arts? Then what? Keep getting stronger? What?
Practicing martial arts is just seeking the Dharma, not seeking the Tao.
Since he came to this world, Yang Qingyuan always wants to do something.
So he left Wudang and took the recommendation letter from the Grand Zhou National Master, Zhang Sanfeng, to participate in the imperial examination that year.
I don’t know if it was because of Zhang Sanfeng’s recommendation letter that Yang Qingyuan was the second in the imperial examination, and became an editor of the Hanlin Academy. He began his long journey of writing books for five years and saved money to support his hopes.
Three years ago, Yang Qingyuan was promoted to the Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy for his merits.
Emperor Gao of the Great Zhou Dynasty admired Tao very much, but now in order to show his own heart towards Tao, he specially issued an order to re-cultivate Taoist sect.
Because Yang Qingyuan was born in Taoism, he was specially ordered to preside over the compilation of the new "Daozang".
Therefore, for the sake of employment, the top students of law naturally transformed into top students of metaphysics.
"Sir Yang, this is an isolated copy I just borrowed from Tianyi Pavilion."
"Sir Yang, this is an ancient scripture borrowed from the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain!"
One rare Taoist book after another was borrowed by the clerk of the Hanlin Academy and sent to Yang Qingyuan's book case.
In three years, the compilation of "Daozang" is coming to an end, and Yang Qingyuan's desk is filled with various ancient scriptures.
Although three years of book study seem to be a waste of time, it is an opportunity for Yang Qingyuan to practice for public expenses. In order to find out the correct mistakes and collect the great ways of the predecessors, the Hanlin Academy has almost collected all the Taoist scriptures of the world this time.
As the editor-in-chief of "Daozang", Yang Qingyuan has also gained extensive knowledge of Taoist scriptures throughout the world.
Most of Yang Qingyuan's martial arts came from the Taoist Zhenwu lineage. Although Daotong helped him quickly, he might not fully understand the essence of it.
Martial arts are easy to practice, but hard to find the realm of Tao.
With the help of three years of compiling the Taoist sect, Yang Qingyuan's understanding of Tao furthered.
Wudang's Liangyi Sword, Yin and Yang Wuji, and Taoist Sect's innate magical skills have all been greatly improved.
Not only that, five years ago, when Yang Qingyuan first entered the Hanlin Academy, he had seen a fragment of a Taoist magic sword in Zhigexie, using wind as his heart, changing virtually and reality, invisible and formless, and no trace to be found.
Yang Qingyuan tried to deduce the complete sword technique with his own understanding and Tiansheng Daotong, but he could only deduce it to the first nine moves, and the sword technique behind it was always elusive.
The road to sedimentation seems useless, but it is really useful.
The three-year journey of writing books allowed Yang Qingyuan to see the future clearly, deducing from the ninth move to the eleventh move.
"I hope to say that it is natural. Therefore, the wind does not last long, and the sudden rain does not last long. Who is this? Heaven and earth. Therefore, all things carry the yin and embrace the yang, and the qi is harmonious."
A ray of inspiration passed through Yang Qingyuan's mind.
The wind moves from quiet to motion, and automatically to calm. When deducing it by oneself, he blindly pursues the power of sword techniques and has coherent moves, but instead forgets the foundation of the wind.
The source of wind is the movement and still flow of qi.
As if Yang Qingyuan had some insight, he suddenly stood up and used the pen in his hand to replace the sword, evolving the sword move.
The pen in my hand is neither fast nor slow, without any sharpness, and only the word light.
The twelfth style wind passes without any traces, and the breeze blows by, and it is hard to find its mark.
The thirteenth style tree is quiet and the wind stops, and the sword intent above the wolf's hair dissipates, like a person who does not know how to do martial arts stabs forward.
The sword was neither fast nor slow, and no drop of ink splashed out above the wolf's hair.
The movement is extremely quiet, and the sword passes without trace.
Yang Qingyuan's face showed a smile on his face, which seemed clumsy and unskilled sword moves.
The first sword technique of the ancient martial arts Xuanmen, Qingfeng Thirteen Swords, has been accomplished!
Slowly retracting the wolf hair in his hand, Yang Qingyuan found that he was more than ten feet away from the book case. The two editors under his command looked at him in a daze.
Confucian scholars from the Great Zhou Dynasty all practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies and wear swords to enlighten their minds. Practicing swordsmanship is an ordinary thing, but it is rare for Yang Qingyuan to suddenly get up and gesture two moves halfway through writing.
"The "Daozang" is about to be written. I didn't expect that Lord Yang is so under such great pressure. Our subordinates still need to share more worries for Lord Yang!"
"Brother Zhao said very well. I will carefully examine the first three volumes today."
"But I heard that Lord Yang was born in Wudang, but this swordsmanship is really not a good match!"
"It's hard to describe..."
Two new editors from the Hanlin Academy looked at their Shangguan, and spoke in a low voice.
Yang Qingyuan also felt his embarrassing situation.
Fortunately, my "Daozang" is about to be completed, and I guess I will be transferred from the Hanlin Academy soon, otherwise...
"Cough cough cough..." After two dry coughs, he pretended to stretch his body, and slowly returned to his seat and continued to edit the Taoist sect.
The day when Taoist sect is completed is the time when Yang Qingyuan goes further.
Whether it is martial arts or official positions.
Just as Yang Qingyuan was busy editing books as usual, a handsome young man in a white robe stepped into the hall.
"Qingyuan is so diligent!"
Yang Qingyuan put down the one in his hand, raised his head and smiled, "This "Daozang" has basically been compiled and started to revise the errata. I am naturally more cautious and dare not slack off. Brother Li just returned from a tour of the capital recently. Why didn't he go to drink and sing when he returned from a tour of the capital? Instead, he came to my Hanlin Academy full of literary works? This is not like you!"
The visitor was Yang Qingyuan's classmate and friend. Five years ago, Yang Qingyuan was the second best in the palace examination, and he was the only one in Tanhua.
Li Tanhua was depressed for a long time because of this. His father and brother were both on the list of Tanhua. He originally hoped that he could get the top scorer, but he didn't expect that Tanhua would be the one.
Chapter completed!
