Chapter 407: My Quanzhen faction is fair and just, never cheating
Gu Xingcun is an ordinary Taoist priest from Louguan Taoism!
The reason why he is said to be ordinary is because he has insufficient talent for cultivation. He has been practicing the "Wenshi Zhen Jing" of Louguan Taoism for more than ten years, but he is still in the Qi refining stage and is far away from building the foundation. Don't say that he is still in the Qi refining stage.
The masters of Louguan Taoism and even Gu Xingcun himself have actually given up on the idea of building a foundation to enter Taoism.
But the Quanzhen sect's Dharma conference that I attended yesterday gave Gu Xingcun new hope.
Seeing Yan Fengzong, who originally had no innate spiritual roots and was completely unable to enter Taoism, and Shu Chuo, a Feng Shui sorcerer who had been on the wrong path for decades, all successfully established the foundation of the Quanzhen Sect, Gu Xingcun felt that his own soul had become like
The deathly silent heart began to beat loudly again.
It's okay even for such a dying old guy, so why don't you just fuck me?
So, after the morning class the next day, Gu Xingcun immediately walked out of the gate of the Taoist temple and rushed to Yongle Square without even returning the things from the morning class back to his residence.
He is going to Qingdu to observe the ‘hanging orders’, and then see if there is any way there that can help him build his foundation and enter the Tao!
At this time, in many other Taoist temples in Chang'an, many Taoist priests like Gu Xingcun also left their Taoist temples with hope and embarked on the road to Qingdu Temple.
When Gu Xingcun came to Qingdu Temple, he found that there were already twenty or thirty Taoist priests in different clothes neatly lined up in front of the Taoist temple in Qingdu Temple.
Seeing the clusters of heads in front of him, as well as the mana fluctuations on many of them that clearly exceeded his own, Gu Xingcun's heart suddenly rose.
With so many gems in front of me, can I be chosen by the Qingdu audience?
Although he didn't have much confidence, people had already arrived at Qingdu to watch. If he left without giving it a try, he felt that he would still not be willing to do so. So Gu Xingcun plucked up the courage and found one among those waiting in line to watch.
Look for someone who has a nice face and is easy to talk to.
"This Taoist brother, may I ask..."
Before Gu Xingcun could finish speaking, he saw the Taoist priest raising his hand and pointing to a notice posted next to him.
Gu Xingcun looked up and found a statement of apology from Qingdu Guan for the selection of pending orders and the method of selecting the pending orders!
The previous apology basically means that because our temporary living conditions are limited, we cannot accept all Taoist friends who come to place orders. Everyone in Quanzhen feels very sorry for this...
Of course, Gu Xingcun was not interested in this apology statement, so he jumped over it at a glance and looked directly at the method behind choosing to place an order.
The result, to Gu Xingcun's expectation, was that Qing Du Guan did not intend to choose among them based on their strength or talent, but instead used a method that they had not thought of at all.
Gu Xingcun looked at the apologetic voice in front of him in disbelief and exclaimed.
"Draw lots!"
"certainly!"
The kind-looking Taoist priest looked at him with strange eyes.
"Taoist Master Cong Houfu said yesterday that Master Qingwei doesn't care about the qualifications of his disciples. After all, joining the Quanzhen Sect is a new beginning, so they chose this fairest method, everyone bets on luck!"
"Hmm...thank you!"
After hearing what the other party said, Gu Xingcun suddenly felt elated. After thanking the Taoist priest for reminding him, he immediately lined up at the back of the team in two steps.
"It's actually a drawing of lots..."
Gu Xingcun, who was standing in the team, looked at the apology statement excitedly and felt his heart beating loudly.
If you don't choose based on things like talent, does that mean that you actually have a high chance of being selected?
When the sun rose and the team behind Gu Xingcun had already lined up from the front yard of Qingdu Temple to the door, the door of hope in front of them finally opened.
The lucky guy they had seen yesterday, Shu Chuo, came out and said loudly to them.
"Now all Taoist friends, please don't jump in line. Come to Pindao in order to get your number. After everyone gets their number, Master Qingwei will come in person to pick out everyone's number and you can come to the temple to 'hang up the order'
Lucky fellow Taoist..."
After hearing Shu Chuo's words, the Taoist priests present did not dare to make any mistakes. They lined up one by one and walked up to him and took a small disc with a number written on it from his hand.
This small round piece was yellow and hard. Gu Xingcun touched it with his hand, but could not find out what material it was made of.
The next moment, two Taoist priests came over holding a white box made of transparent glass. In the box, Gu Xingcun also saw many number plates that were exactly the same as the small disc in his hand.
Shu Chuo stepped forward and patted the transparent glass box with his hand in front of everyone's eyes.
"In order to ensure openness and transparency, everyone can see this draw, so as to prevent some fellow Taoists from thinking that my Quanzhen sect is cheating."
As soon as these words came out, some Taoist priests who really thought so suddenly had a look of shame on their faces.
"Please rest assured that our Quanzhen Sect teaches without discrimination and will not set any thresholds or screen fellow Taoists. We all rely on luck..."
As Shu Chuo spoke, Gu Xingcun and other Taoist priests took the number plates from Shu Chuo's hands one by one. After the last number plate was given out, Shu Chuo continued.
"The drawing of lots has begun. Please invite me, Qingdu, to observe Master Qingwei!"
Whoosh!
A flash of sword light flashed, and Kong Qing, dressed in white, fell from the sky like an immortal descending from the earth. After sweeping his eyes around the Taoist priests present, he directly reached into the transparent box without saying a word.
Inside, I casually grabbed a number plate.
"Three or four!"
"Three or four..."
Shu Chuo on the side repeated it loudly, his eyes sweeping over the Taoist priests present.
"Whoever is Three or Four, please come forward."
The next moment, Gu Xingcun saw the kind-faced Taoist priest who had spoken to him before excitedly raising his hand and jumping out of the crowd holding a number plate.
"Pindao is three or four, poor Tao is three or four..."
"good!"
Shu Chuo smiled at the Taoist priest, and then pointed inside the main hall.
"Go inside and complete the order procedures!"
"yes!"
The Taoist priest answered excitedly, and then ran towards the inside of the hall excitedly.
Gu Xingcun looked at the other person with envy, and then cast his expectant eyes on the handsome Taoist priest in white.
"Catch me, catch me!"
Then, he saw the Taoist priest in white put his hand into the box and grabbed another number plate and came out.
"Two five!"
"Erwu, who is Erwu?"
Amid Shu Chuo's questioning, another excited Taoist priest jumped out holding the number plate in his hand high, and then rushed into the hall excitedly.
As time went by, numbers were called one after another, but it was never Gu Xingcun's turn. Just when he was about to think that his trip this time was in vain, something suddenly came to his ears.
There was a voice like celestial music.
"Three-eight!"
"Sanba, who is Sanba?"
In an instant, Gu Xingcun felt that his heart was beating very violently, as if it was about to break through his chest. He pressed his chest with one hand and held the number plate high with the other.
rise.
"Pindao is 38!"
However, Gu Xingcun, who was already in a state of ecstasy at this time, did not notice that just when he shouted these words, the body of Kong Qing, who was drawing lots above, paused strangely.
…
After all the quotas were drawn, Kong Qing jumped up again and turned into a sword light and left, leaving only Shu Chuo standing there to comfort the fellow Taoists who had not been drawn.
"This lottery has ended, but fellow Taoists who have not been drawn need not be depressed. The Dazhuangyan Temple in Nancheng has been rebuilt into the Taiqing Palace by the saint's decree. It will be completed in two or three months. By then, it will be me."
Wherever the lower courtyard of the Quanzhen Sect is spacious, all Taoist friends can go to Taiqing Palace to place orders."
As he spoke, Shu Chuo clasped his fists and saluted the Taoist priests below who looked frustrated.
"Please rest assured, fellow Taoists, those who are drawn are certainly very lucky, but those who are not drawn will only waste two or three months more..."
Gu Xingcun, who was going through the formalities in the main hall, listened to Shu Chuo's words outside, holding the receipt for the pending order that had just been issued in his hand, with a look of joy on his face.
He actually had to waste two or three months, but luckily he was chosen.
"Bingziyuan, Xisan..."
A quarter of an hour later, Gu Xingcun came to his residence holding the registration certificate in his hand.
Before he could open the door and enter, he heard a knock on the door and a familiar face appeared in front of him.
"Hey! Why is it you again!"
"Yes! This Taoist brother, we are really destined!"
Gu Xingcun also looked at the kind-faced Taoist priest in front of him with some surprise, and quickly raised his hands to salute.
"The existence of poverty in the valley comes from the Tao of Louguan."
The Taoist priest opposite also quickly raised his hand to return the salute.
"Tao Tianhuo, a poor Taoist, comes from the Zhanxuan sect."
After the two parties had finished their greetings, Gu Xingcun straightened up and looked through the open door next to Tao Tianhuo. He found that although the room was not big, two sets of bedding had been laid out for them, one on the left and the other on the right.
, there are also two cabinets for storing things, and the conditions are actually better than when he was observing in the passage.
Looking at the furnishings in the room, Gu Xingcun said with emotion.
“I didn’t expect that the room where the Quanzhen sect hangs orders would be so nice!”
"yes!"
Tao Tianhuo seemed to have been placing orders before, and nodded with deep understanding.
"And they do things fairly and justly. Before I came here, I was worried that they would select people based on their level of cultivation."
"yes!"
Gu Xingcun also nodded.
"Although Master Qingwei is young, he is really a righteous man!"
…
At this time, a certain righteous man mentioned by Gu Xingcun and Tao Tianhuo was sitting in his small courtyard, casually throwing a handful of yellow number plates into the glass box and looking at Shu Chuo in front of him.
He handed over a stack of files filled with words.
"Lao Shu, this is the opportunity for those who have been selected by Pindao to break through the Foundation Establishment in the future. You and Hu Meier can discuss it and take back these opportunities in advance, and then return them to whom they belong. Of course, you must remember when you return them.
Find a suitable reason."
"I understand, Commander, please rest assured..."
With that said, Shu Chuo took the files from Kong Qing's hands without hesitation.
"Reasons...isn't it a good reason to join our Quanzhen Sect!"
