Chapter 81: Incumbent Taishi Ling, Qingxiazi Su Yuenlong
In the backyard of Qingdu Temple in Chang'an City, there is a courtyard that although no one lives in, Taoist priests come to clean it every day. In the small courtyard, there is a pine tree about the size of a hug, with lush branches and leaves, and pavilions like a canopy.
Behind the small courtyard is a house with extremely simple furnishings. Apart from a shrine enshrining Laojun, there is only a futon on the ground, a whisk hanging on the wall and a large banner with the words
A flamboyant Dao character, with a line of small characters at the end of the inscription, which reads: Thirteenth year of Daye, Xuancheng.
A beautiful woman in men's clothing was standing in the small courtyard house with an emotional expression on her face, gently sliding her delicate jade fingers on the banner with the word "Tao" written on it.
"When your master was writing this calligraphy, I was sitting there, and you, Xiao Qingwei, were sitting there. I remember that you naughtily left a finger print on the edge of this calligraphy..."
"That... Your Highness the Princess!"
Kong Qing raised his hand, interrupting Princess Pingyang's nostalgia.
"Um……"
Princess Pingyang's eyes widened and she glared at Kong Qing.
"Okay, Third Lady..."
Kong Qing looked at Princess Pingyang's finger that seemed to be reaching towards him again, and took a step back silently.
This Princess Pingyang was indeed a free-spirited and heroic girl, but Kong Qing couldn't accept the fact that she liked to pinch her face from time to time.
Pindao is a Taoist master and a terrestrial god. You can't just pinch him if you want.
After dodging Princess Pingyang's eager claws, Kong Qing glanced at the introduction box suspended next to her and said calmly.
"If Pindao remembers correctly, the handprint on this banner is clearly that of Sanniangzi. You knocked over the inkstone and printed it when you rushed out to rescue the banner. You also threatened Pindao at that time, saying that if Pindao
If you dare..."
"shut up!"
Li Xiuning shouted, and when she looked at Kong Qing, her eyes narrowed again, with an unkind look on her face.
"You remember wrongly, you were the one who knocked over the inkstone..."
"The poor Taoist said it wasn't..."
Before Kong Qing finished speaking, he saw Princess Pingyang flexing her fingers.
"Well, the fingerprints were left by Pindao."
After seeing Kong Qing's helpless compromise, Princess Pingyang first smiled proudly, but the smile didn't last for a few seconds. As her fingers swiped across the whisk on the wall, it changed again.
It became a sad expression.
"This whisk is actually still there...this person has passed away, things have changed and people have changed..."
His voice became lower and lower, and the expression on his face became more and more confused.
"With Xuancheng's talent, I shouldn't have left so early. If I had..."
He couldn't listen to the next words anymore, so Kong Qing silently took two steps back and slipped out of the house, leaving Princess Pingyang alone in the house.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Xiuning walked out of the house again. The sad look on her face had disappeared without a trace. She put her hands behind her back and walked towards the outside of the yard.
"Come on, Xiao Qingwei, I'll introduce you to someone..."
"Introduce me to someone?"
Kong Qing followed Li Xiuning with some confusion, from the backyard of Qingdu Temple back to the front yard, until he walked to the door of the main hall where Laojun was enshrined.
Before he entered the door, Kong Qing heard a loud voice coming from the main hall.
"Although the old Taoist is not good at divination, judging from the aura on the top of this lady's head, you have completely recovered. The next aura will reach its peak in twenty years..."
Then, Kong Qing heard the voice of a certain Yang family lady.
"Then I would like to ask the old immortal, will the slave family get what they want in the future?"
"Do you want to get what you want, hahaha..."
The loud voice burst into laughter.
"I can't tell you what I'm saying, but it all depends on people. If you work hard, lady, you might not be able to make your dreams come true!"
Listening to the words coming from the main hall, the corners of Kong Qing's mouth twitched silently.
What's going on?
Someone actually came to Pindao's Taoist temple to sell divination. Is this an attempt to destroy Pindao's place?
"Come on, Xiao Qingwei, the person I want to introduce to you is in the main hall..."
In front of the main hall, Princess Pingyang stopped, waved to Kong Qing, and then whispered.
"After entering, be polite to the old god."
Before Kong Qing could react to what had happened, Princess Pingyang had already reached out and pushed open the door of the hall and stepped in. Kong Qing could only follow her in.
After entering the main hall, Kong Qing saw at a glance the eldest lady of the Yang family and her maid Cuiqiao who were supposed to be in the side hall. Behind them stood Yan Fengzong and Shi Wanbao, one wearing a Taoist robe and with white hair.
Piao Piao, a fairy-like old Taoist stood in the center of the hall with a smile.
After hearing the sound of opening the door, the old Taoist priest turned his head and his eyes happened to collide with Kong Qing's. Suddenly Kong Qing felt as if a flash of lightning flashed in front of his eyes.
"Come on, Xiao Qingwei, let me introduce you..."
After leading Kong Qing into the main hall, Princess Pingyang saluted the old man very respectfully.
"This is Su Yuanlang, the current Taishi Ling of the Taishi Bureau of the Tang Dynasty. His Taoist name is Qingxiazi. In front of his old man, all monsters and ghosts will have no escape..."
Princess Pingyang raised her voice and signaled Kong Qing to come forward and salute.
"As long as you have his support, you don't have to be afraid no matter what kind of monsters it is..."
This veteran turned out to be Qingxiazi...
Kong Qing took a step forward, with just the right amount of admiration on his face, and bowed down to salute the white-haired veteran.
"Xiaodao Qingwei, I have met the real Qingxia!"
While bowing, Kong Qing moved his fingers slightly and threw out an identification technique.
Name: Su Yuanlang (Qingxiazi)
Age: One hundred and forty-seven years old
Past: In the early days, he lived in seclusion in Juqu Mountain to study Taoism, and was able to pass on the true secrets of command. During the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Kaihui lived in seclusion in the Qingxia Valley of Luofu Mountain to practice Taoism and refine elixirs. He first wrote "Taiqing Stone Wall Records" and later wrote "Zhi Dao Pian" to clarify the internal affairs.
The method of alchemy cultivation. Later, he was recommended by Qi Pingding, the master of Louguan Taoism. At the request of Li Yuan, he joined the Taishi Bureau as the Taishi Order. Internally, he united with Louguan Taoism, Shangqing Sect, Zhanxuan Sect and other Taoist sects to suppress the Buddhist sects.
The forces within the Taishi Bureau suppressed all demons and monsters externally, and with the power of one person, most of the evil spirits in Chang'an City were swept out of Guanzhong.
Now: After learning in the morning that Qingdu Taoist priest Qingwei killed the snake demon alone in Li Xun's house, he was invited by Pingyang Princess Li Xiuning to come to Qingdu to observe the Taoist sect seeds.
Future: After Li Chunfeng resigned as Taishi Ling in the 22nd year of Zhenguan, he returned to Qingxia Valley in Luofu Mountain and compiled "Longhu Golden Liquid Returns Alchemy to Tongyuan Theory", passed down the method of cultivating both life and life, and established the inner alchemy sect.
Major: Laozi Eight Views Gong
Cultivation: life and soul are fused together, spirit and qi are fully integrated, a hundred years of merit have been completed, you can shed your shell and become a real person, and you can become an earthly immortal at any time.
Supernatural power: Heart fire refines the spirit, eight scenes return to the origin
Looking at Qingxiazi's introduction, Kong Qing felt speechless for a while...
He knew that the other party was very good. After all, the Taoist book left by Xuancheng, Kong Qing's cheap master, contained Qingxiazi's "Zhidao Pian", but he really didn't expect that Qingxiazi was so good.
Cattle fork.
Not to mention passing down the method of dual cultivation of life and life, establishing an inner alchemy faction, etc., just the sentence on the other party's profile, 'With one person's power, most of the evil spirits in Chang'an City were swept out of Guanzhong', and the following sentence
If "I can become an Earth Immortal at any time", Kong Qing could only write a capital letter of "Follow" to Qingxiazi.
No wonder he hadn't encountered a single demon or monster in Chang'an City in the more than a year since he traveled through time, except for Gao Zan and the snake demon. It turned out to be because there was still such a living god living in Chang'an City.
"This little Taoist priest no longer needs the support of the old Taoist..."
Facing Princess Pingyang's praise, Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang waved his sleeves and said with a gentle expression.
"You have reached the point where your spirit is combined with your spirit, your spirit is combined with your qi, and your qi is combined with your true nature. You have successfully built the foundation and entered the Tao in one step. Even the old Taoists were not as good as in the past. As long as you are cautious, you can achieve anything in the world."
"But the old Taoist is very curious..."
Su Yuanlang took a step forward, as if he had shrunk to an inch, and walked directly from the center of the hall to the side of Kong Qing. He looked at Kong Qing up and down with his eyes and clicked his tongue.
"Sex and destiny are completed, gods and achievements are completed, the god in one's own form enters the nature in the god... No matter how the old Taoist looks at it, he feels that the method you are practicing seems to be the inner elixir method of the old Taoist lineage.
