With the advent of late autumn, the red leaf area has ushered in its most beautiful season every year. The mountains and plains are covered in red, and even the buildings of Hongye City are painted in red, which contrasts beautifully.
But this kind of red is not dazzling, but a natural red full of vitality.
The annual autumn feast has begun.
The Autumn Appreciation Banquet does not exclude ordinary Taoist disciples from participating, but with a scale of two to three thousand people, it is difficult to ensure that everyone can be closer to the banquet center.
The basic layout is that in the huge performance field of the Taoist Academy, the central position is occupied by the parents with the highest status and their children, followed by those whose parents are here but not at a high level, and finally the majority of the elders in the family.
Taoist students who have not yet arrived.
Generally speaking, if there is a Tongxuan monk among the elders in the family, then there must be a seat in the center with a melon plate and a fruit plate. Things are not important, but status is important.
Most of the Taoist disciples are their ancestors. After all, there are only a few who come from a family of practitioners. Of course, there are even fewer who can enter Taoism.
No one complains. This is the way the world is. People who sit in the center are the result of their own hard work. No one can succeed by chance.
Of course Hou Tsuta's table of four people is also in the center, or the position closest to the center. He doesn't mind where he is arranged. Even if this arrangement may be intentional, he is praised as a pearl, but is actually a grain of rice?
He didn't think that these Tongtian monks who came here would deliberately target him for the little things of their disciples. With the magnanimity of a Taoist cultivator, he wouldn't; but if someone really did this, then I'm afraid there are some of them worth pondering.
s things.
Among the four people, in addition to Hou Zi and Zhao Xintong, at the same table were Zhao Xintong's two best friends in the Taoist academy, Han Mi and Shang Keqing. One of these two people specializes in mechanism puppetry, and the other
They are good at array techniques, and they are all on the first list. They are actually the leaders of Hongye Taoist Academy.
Career direction has also become an aspect of making friends. It seems that people who work in the same industry must be enemies?
A Tongxuan master can guide many disciples, and the Taoist Academy is not very serious in this regard.
There is a high platform in the center, and monks are invited to give lectures on the platform. This is also a basic feature of all Dharma gatherings, and the autumn appreciation party probably cannot escape this category.
The head of the Taoist Academy gave a speech, and the head of the academy gave a speech, thanking all Taoist friends for coming and supporting, thanking the Taoist students for their hard work, thanking all the teachers for their hard work, thanking Weimen Taihao for being broad-minded, thanking the rain and dew of heaven, thanking...
Those who go up to perform Dharma and teach Taoism are basically monks from Taihao of Wei Clan. This is also in line with the teaching direction of Hongye Taoist Academy. Of course, the monks who come most often are monks from Taihao.
The Taoist temple did not contact Hou Zi to perform on stage, which was a bit beyond his expectation; not because he felt so important, but because he was wondering if those little guys would bring the adults out to suppress him.
Limelight?
If others treat each other with courtesy, he is willing to reciprocate.
The few little girls were fascinated by what they heard. The teachers in the Taoist Academy taught more about basic theories, while the teachings by these foreign upperclassmen were more focused on practical applications, which were of course much more exciting.
These didn't mean much to him, and the direction of cultivation was out of reach. He couldn't understand Taihao's lofty artistic conception, and Taihao couldn't understand Quanzhen's straightforwardness.
The Autumn Appreciation started at sunset and gradually entered the morning two hours later. The Taoist disciples were mesmerized by the wonderful application of Taoism by the monks, which broadened their horizons, strengthened their confidence, and set an example.
Then we entered the next link, fables and prophecies, which is also the aspect that Taoist disciples are most interested in.
Hongye College, as the training center for basic monks under Taihao's sect, is good at many things, but there is only one that is famous for it, which is astrology.
This is a characteristic that is unique in the entire continent. It is the reason why Taihao of Wei Clan has the courage to fight against Wu Clan, and it is also the pride of Hongye Academy.
But the fables and prophecies in the autumn appreciation are not purely divination predictions; the biggest taboo in this industry is loud mouth. How can you speculate on God's will in such a public place?
Only casual cultivators like Guan Lao Shenxian back then would show off their unscrupulous remarks. For a professional sect like Tahao Sect, they would never make such a childish mistake under any circumstances.
Therefore, the fables and prophecies here are more like a kind of life insights, integrating one's own understanding of spiritual practice into one sentence, like famous aphorisms, reminding future generations what is important and what should be avoided.
Interestingly, fables also have pros and cons, which use some kind of opposition to deepen Taoist disciples' understanding of Tao.
This method is ideal, very academic, and very simple. If you hang around in the cruel world of cultivation for a long time, you will feel very naive, but Taoist disciples like it. They always want to find some kind of successful path from the teachings of their predecessors.
Also includes this life motto.
Taoist sects often have such a training method; but if it is placed in a demonic sect, it is simply throwing people into the rivers and lakes, and those who survive will naturally understand. Those who do not understand do not need to understand, because they are already dead.
.
A Taoist stood up and came to the center. With the help of the special magic circle arranged by the Taoist Academy, with a casual touch, a scene of snakes and rats fighting in the void appeared.
This is a real and happening scene, somewhere near Hongye City; the magic circle can randomly select an introduction to such a scene, and then the monks can use it as a prophecy.
It's better than making up random things. Practice and life are always closely related.
The Taoist smiled slightly and casually walked into the crowd, "How dare you invite Senior Brother Liu to come up and talk..."
This was a battle of wits, very interesting and philosophical, but a bit hollow. Hou Ting listened to it for the time being, but his main attention was still on Zhao Xintong, trying to find the root of her state of mind from her reaction.
Taoist priests stood up one after another, and it was basically determined by the Taoist academy that they should be profound in Taoism and eloquent. There are many teapots in the world of cultivation that are filled with dumplings but cannot be poured out. It would be more embarrassing for such people to go up.
Towards the end of the fable, a white-faced Taoist stood up. He was tall and straight, with a detached air. With just one glance, you can discover the family blood relationship between this man and Yu Buzhuo. They are so similar. This is the true inheritance of the Yu family.
Got a good bloodline.
"It's senior Yu Wuxia, Ganshen Shangxiu, Xintong, he is Yu Buzhuo's father, right?" Han Mi chuckled.
Zhao Xintong's face was as dark as water, "Who is he and what does it have to do with me?"
A few people at the table were a little embarrassed, but Yu Wuxia behaved gracefully. With a stroke in the sky, a scene unfolded in the void.
An old man was hunched over, struggling to hold a wooden cart and climbing up an arch bridge; he was transporting goods into the city at night, which was the ordinary life of ordinary people at the bottom.
Yu Wuxia smiled and said, "Fellow Taoist, why don't you and I conspire together this time?"
Everyone looked over and saw that there were actually three disciples on the list at that table, including the famous Zhao Xianzi in the Taoist Academy. Who is that young Taoist?
