Chapter 127 Three mountains and five lakes come together!
Guangzong, Taiping Road.
The old Taoist priest Taihua only accepted two disciples in his life, and they finally met each other in this Taiping Gate.
Ji Qiu appeared, and instantly attracted the attention of many Taiping disciples.
Realizing the situation below, Ji Qiu smiled and invited:
"There are many people from my sect here, and it is not a place for communication. Brother Taoist, please come with me."
After saying this, Ji Qiu moved his steps and wanted to go back.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling didn't say much, and followed closely, following suit. However, when he looked at the Taiping Dao disciples around him, there was something strange in his eyes.
Taiping Dao disciples all follow the practice of Taiping Sutra as their program, and Ji Qiu never hides his teaching method, and orders his disciples to give to the world. Therefore, his cultivation can be said to be unique in the world.
After recovering from the shock of Ji Qiu's performance, Zhang Ling suddenly discovered that the many disciples of Taiping Dao were exactly the same as those he had been running in Zhengyishan for decades.
Moreover, it’s just Guangzong!
Leaving aside the discussion here, how many disciples are there who are truly successful in spiritual practice and are sent by their ‘junior brother’ to preach and rescue diseases in other states and counties?
If you think about it carefully, it’s really scary!
At this moment, Zhang Ling's heart was filled with waves, but his expression remained calm and he had done a good job of nourishing his energy.
Watching respectfully and slightly curiously all the way, Zhang Ling and Ji Qiu entered a quiet room, where the host and guest took their seats.
"My Taiping Road is simple and simple. Brother Taoist travels all the way. Please don't dislike it."
Sitting cross-legged on the table, Ji Qiu raised his hand, and the open door closed instantly.
Then, he nodded slightly to Zhang Ling and apologized.
"We Taoists eat the wind, drink the dew, and live in the mountains and fields. We have long been accustomed to this. How can we say it is simple or not?"
Shaking his head, Zhang Ling did not delay and asked straight to the point:
"I have been cultivating so far, and I have lived longer than you for decades. Now that you and I have learned from the same sect, I asked you to be called my junior brother."
"I wonder what the purpose of Junior Brother Julu is to first cultivate books in Pindao and then send disciples to visit Pindao?"
Hearing these somewhat questioning words, Ji Qiu didn't say anything.
He raised his hand, took out the nine-section staff that he had always carried with him, emitting spiritual light and lines all over his body, and placed it opposite Zhang Ling, saying:
"Brother Taoist, please listen to me."
"Before Teacher Taihua passed away, he told me about Brother Tao and told me that if you are willing to practice the Tao of Taiping, you can ask Brother Tao to help you."
"That's why I asked the two disciples to go find Brother Dao with the sentence."
"If this disturbs Brother Dao's Qingxiu, please forgive me for being presumptuous."
After saying that, Ji Qiu nodded and apologized with a modest tone.
In this regard, Zhang Ling remained silent and did not get angry.
He just looked at the nine-section staff, slightly absent-minded, and in a trance he seemed to see the differences of opinion that occurred between himself and Taihua Taoism after he achieved Taoism.
On that day, he first achieved the foundation of the Dao, and he was full of energy. He only felt that the Dao and the people should be the most important thing.
As a practitioner, we don’t meditate quietly in the mountains and fields to refine our Qi in order to join the great road early. Why should we stir up the world in order to help the world?
Even if you want to practice the records of the Taiping Jing, you just need to recruit disciples to preach. There is no need to do it yourself.
At that time, Zhang Ling valued the merits that could be gained from the Taiping Sutra in relieving the world, so he went to practice it, rather than doing it out of his original intention.
Even if this kind of behavior can achieve success, thousands of years later, it will be just another reincarnation and will not be of any benefit to this world.
Taoist Taihua could see this almost at a glance, so he said that he was putting the cart before the horse and ignoring the true essence of the Taiping Sutra, so he never handed down the mantle.
He was also dissatisfied and traveled as far as Sichuan and Sichuan. He never returned to Taihua Mountain, nor did he see the Taihua Taoist for the last time.
Over the decades in spring and autumn, flowers bloom and fall.
After you pass the initial Tao-based barrier, the subsequent path of spiritual practice will be full of bottlenecks and thresholds.
After meditating for such a long time, Zhang Ling almost re-examined himself.
Sometimes, Zhang Ling would also be confused about his own path.
He followed the Taiping Sutra and entered Taoism. Although he never deviated from the Taoism, as Taihua Taoist said, he gradually deviated from the original intention of practice.
So he devoted himself to studying preaching in Sichuan and Sichuan, and he had some enlightenment over the years.
Just as he continued to explore, trying to clear away the clouds and see the truth, the news that Taoist Taihua had passed away reached his ears.
At the same time, news about Taiping Dao and the great virtuous teacher Zhang Julu also came through.
The first time he heard about it, and the layout planned by Ji Qiu, he fell in Zhang Ling's eyes.
With just one glance, he could see the big thing Ji Qiu wanted to do.
In the first half of his life, Taihua Taoist failed to help the Dragon Court, but he still wanted to continue to seek to rebuild a peaceful world. So how could Zhang Ling not know what path his disciples were taking when they came to the end of the circle?
The Taoist priest who wore a Taoist crown and had a neat appearance had complicated eyes, and he spoke after a long while:
"If you don't want to bother me, we'll talk about it later."
"You and I come from the same school, and the teacher's background is not revealed. You should understand everything."
"So your behavior cannot be hidden from Pindao."
"Let me just ask you one question today, are you really ready to practice this way and subvert the world? Would you rather die than regret it?"
After hearing the Taoist's words, Ji Qiu turned his head and glanced at the nine-section staff in his hand, and said calmly:
"At this time, all the plans have surfaced, and the overall plan is to deploy pawns to go first. It is like an arrow on the string and has to be fired."
"Brother Taoist asked me such words, but they actually have no meaning."
"When I practice the Taiping Sutra, I am walking the path to create peace in the world. When the path is completed, my path will be completed. The two complement each other and are indispensable."
"So I invited Brother Dao here this time because I just want to say something to Brother Dao."
"I wish I could work with my junior brother and fulfill my lifelong wish for my teacher?"
Ji Qiu's eyes burned brightly.
After hearing this, Zhang Ling felt moved.
It has to be said that Ji Qiu caught the soft spot in his heart.
Although he created a dharma practice for the purpose of refining his Qi and cultivating the Dao, Taihua had a decisive influence on him.
Ji Qiu used Taihua's long-cherished wish as an excuse, and it can be said that he took advantage of it.
Even though Zhang Ling would not agree easily, based on this alone, he would not be able to get off the big ship of Taiping Road.
While Ji Qiu looked calm and was waiting for Zhang Ling's reply, his soul suddenly started to throb, as if to warn him.
Taoist masters usually have spiritual senses, which are extremely sensitive and generally do not make mistakes.
Then Ji Qiu suddenly raised his head, his brows were slightly focused and his soul dispersed, and he looked towards the outside world.
Sure enough, just when his spirit enveloped the Taiping Gate and even spread towards the huge Guangzong County.
Several sources of powerful energy are approaching this place at a rapid speed.
The person who came was very aggressive and looked quite evil!
"It seems that there are guests coming to the door."
"Brother Dao, please think about it carefully. Junior brother, I have to deal with some emergencies first. When I come back, I will continue to have a long talk with you."
Ji Qiu frowned, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, but he didn't seem surprised at all.
These people who came together, when he glanced at them with his soul, he knew that they were several Taoist masters.
There is no need to explain why he came, he knows.
Guanhai Road, Changhong Road, and Tongyou Road were destroyed in his hands one after another. Even if we don't talk about whether he has three or five friends, just talking about Taiping Road's behavior is enough to put everyone in the mountain and wild roads in danger.
Isn’t it coming now?
However, Ji Qiu was obviously prepared for this.
So he just replied to Zhang Ling calmly and stood up.
If we can have peaceful talks, everything will be best.
But if we can't reach an agreement, we have no choice but to resort to tricks.
It just so happens that he has nowhere to try this new technique!
