In the front hall of Qingdu Temple, an old Taoist priest with white beard and hair was walking around a young and handsome Taoist priest, looking up and down with a look of curiosity and inquiry in his eyes.
"Everyone in the world who practices the inner alchemy method must come from the disciples of the old Taoist, but you are an exception. It really puzzles the old Taoist. How did you appear as an anomaly?"
"this……"
Kong Qing silently took a step back and said in a tentative tone.
"How about Master Qingxia do your fortune telling?"
"Pfft..."
As Kong Qing's words came out, Princess Pingyang Li Xiuning, who was standing aside, couldn't help laughing. Even Shi Wanbao, a former ranger who had been standing in the corner of the house and pretended that he didn't exist, started laughing too.
"Then there's no need..."
After hearing what Kong Qing said, Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang also laughed and shook his head, looking at Kong Qing and waving his hands repeatedly.
"Each Taoist sect has its own strengths. The old Taoist is not one of those magic sticks of the Zhanxuan sect, so he definitely can't do calculations. Moreover, the old Taoist always does things normally and never uses tricks like calculation."
For some reason, Kong Qing always felt a little chilly when the old Taoist priest looked at him.
"Master Qingxia, Xiaodao doesn't quite understand what you mean..."
"Isn't what the old Taoist said clear enough?"
Qingxiazi smiled slightly at Kong Qing, stretched out her skinny hands, which looked like crane claws, and squeezed hard. In an instant, the wind rose from the ground, stirring back and forth in Laojun's hall, making a rumbling sound.
The clothes of the people around me were making a rustling sound.
Amidst the turbulent wind, Qingxiazi's sonorous voice sounded.
"It's not enough to rely on things like divination. This is what seasoned experts always rely on to do things..."
Seeing the opponent's understated demeanor of clenching a fist, he could have the power of wind and thunder, and the opponent's aura that seemed to condense into substance after clenching his fist, Kong Qing swallowed his saliva in an incomprehensible manner.
Too strong, really too strong...
Is this the Taoist master Qing Xiazi who single-handedly suppressed all the demons and monsters in Chang'an City?
"Now tell me honestly, how did you obtain the inner alchemy?"
Qingxiazi waved his sleeves, and the turbulent wind in the hall instantly calmed down. Then he turned his head, showed an amiable smile to Kong Qing, and raised his bony fist.
"Of course, little Taoist priest, you can also try to tell some lies to the old Taoist."
You can also try to tell some lies...
He...tui!
What does it mean to try... Pindao will definitely not tell you the truth today, what do you think?
"Well, since Master Qingxia said so, then it's okay for the little Taoist priest not to confess."
Looking at Qingxiazi with fists in front of him, Kong Qing first showed a helpless expression on his face, then clasped his hands into fists, gave a deep salute, and replied in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
"Master Qingxia, you are right. The cultivation method of Xiaodao is indeed derived from your inner alchemy method, Master Qingxia."
"But here's the problem..."
Qingxiazi twisted her beard with her hands and said with a smile.
"The old Taoist has an impression of all the people who have received the true teaching from the old Taoist disciples; the old Taoist also remembers all the exercises taught by the old Taoist. However, although the operation method of this exercise in you has the shadow of the old Taoist exercises, it is
Quite unfamiliar.”
"Because this skill is not completely taught by you, Master Qingxia..."
Kong Qing clasped his hands in his fists, bowed deeply towards the backyard of Qingdu Temple again, and replied respectfully.
"This is the master of Master Xuancheng who has read through the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and combined it with Master Qingxia's "Zhidao Pian" and "Guwen Longhu Jing", "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Qi", "Jin Bi Qian Tong Jue" and other books
, the inner alchemy method derived by oneself can reverse the innate power after success, so Xiaodao named this cultivation method "Xiantian Gong"."
"What?"
After hearing Kong Qing's words, Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang was still twisting his beard in silence, while Princess Pingyang on the side had already exclaimed in surprise.
"Xuan Cheng actually created his own cultivation method? This is impossible. I remember that Xuancheng was not... he said at the time... his talent..."
"Sister-in-law, you are right..."
Kong Qing lowered his head, his face gloomy, as if he was so sad that he would shed tears at any time because he thought of his master.
"Due to limited qualifications, the master cannot practice Taoism, so this innate skill was actually created by the master and Xiaodao. After the master passed away, Xiaodao made some modifications to this skill.
Not long ago, I completed a hundred days of foundation building and successfully entered the Tao..."
"Is that so?"
Princess Pingyang looked at the sad Kong Qing and couldn't help but think of a certain handsome middle-aged Taoist priest. Her eyes suddenly turned red and she murmured.
"I should have thought of it earlier. What Xuancheng has always wanted to do is to enter Taoism and live forever. He is so smart and knowledgeable, he must be able to do it..."
"No wonder that guy Xuancheng was unwilling to follow Sanniangzi to Hu County..." Shi Wanbao, who was standing in the corner, also murmured. "It turns out that he was holding back in Daxing City for this matter!"
"Based on Lao Tao Wo's Zhi Dao Pian, combined with the strengths of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, the method of inner elixir created is interesting..."
After hearing Kong Qing's words, Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang touched his beard with a curious expression on his face.
"If you practice other methods, the old Taoist will definitely not say much, but since you practice my inner alchemy method, you can also be regarded as my successors. Now the old Taoist is shameless and wants to see it.
Look at your so-called innate skill..."
As she spoke, Qingxiazi stretched out her hand and spread her bony palm in front of Kong Qing.
"How about it, little Taoist priest, do you want to take it out for the old Taoist priest?"
The corners of Kong Qing's mouth twitched silently...
You old man has such big fists and so sound principles. In a blink of an eye, I have become a disciple of your Neidan sect. Do you still dare to say no?
In fact, Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang was not wrong when he said that Kong Qing was his disciple...
Because although Xiantian Kung Fu was a technique created by Wang Chongyang himself in the Southern Song Dynasty by combining the strengths of the three religions, its foundation is still the Taoist inner alchemy technique, which was passed down by Su Yuanlang, the Qingxiazi.
The method of restoring elixir with dragon and tiger gold liquid.
From this perspective, it is not wrong to say that Wang Chongyang is the descendant of Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang hundreds of years later!
"Master Qingxia, please wait a moment..."
Kong Qing respectfully saluted Qingxiazi again, then exited the main hall and returned to his own yard. He took out a copy of Xiantian Kung that he copied out and prepared for Yan Fengzong and others to learn, and returned to the main hall.
, and handed it over respectfully again.
"This is the innate skill created by the ancestors and recorded by Xiaodao. I ask Master Qingxia to correct me..."
"Okay, let me take a look..."
The old Taoist priest Su Yuanlang unceremoniously reached out and took the Xiantian Gong from Kong Qing's hand, and then quickly read through it.
This innate skill may be a bit profound for ordinary people, but it is not the case for Su Yuanlang, who can become an earthly immortal at any time. He keeps clicking, and one page only takes a few seconds.
In just a few minutes, I've read more than half of it.
Seeing Qingxiazi's movements, the corners of Kong Qing's mouth twitched again.
May I ask Master Qingxia, what do you mean when you curl your lips while reading...
Is innate skill that bad?
ah!
Is it that bad?
A quarter of an hour later, Su Yuanlang casually threw the copy of Xiantian Kung back to Kong Qing, then smacked his lips and made a comment.
"Well, although some things are too taken for granted, there are still some whimsical thoughts... This Xuancheng can be regarded as a genius. It is a pity that he has not been able to enter my sect."
After hearing Qingxiazi's comments, Princess Pingyang showed a somewhat sad expression on her face, while Shi Wanbao had an expression that was not what I expected. Yan Fengzong, who was standing near the statue of Laojun, almost cried.
Among the expressions, only Yang Mudan and her maid Cuiqiao had confused expressions.
Kong Qing was expressionless...
Well, the innate skill is actually just a bit of a whim?
Master Qingxia, you are indeed an expert at mixing yin and yang!
"Originally, the old Taoist came today at the invitation of Princess Pingyang to meet a seed from my Taoist sect, but what the old Taoist didn't expect was that this seed was actually from my sect, the old Taoist..."
After returning the Xiantian Kung to Kong Qing, Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang walked around the hall with his hands behind his back and said in deep thought.
"It's okay to be like your former master, Taoist Xuancheng, who refused to enter. But since you, little Taoist, have entered Taoism through the inner elixir method of the old Taoist, even if Princess Pingyang doesn't invite me, I can't ignore the old Taoist."
…”
After taking another two steps, the old Taoist priest seemed to have made up his mind and flicked his sleeves.
"Okay, kneel down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Qing felt an irresistible force coming from his shoulders, and he immediately knelt on the ground with an involuntary grunt.
Before Kong Qing could figure out what was going on, he saw Princess Pingyang bowing to Qingxiazi Su Yuanlang with a smile on her face.
"Congratulations to the old immortal for getting a disciple!"
And after Kong Qing came in, Yang Mudan, the eldest lady of the Yang family, who timidly hid aside with her maid and said nothing, although she didn't know what happened, jumped out and faced Qingxiazi Su Yuan.
Lang salutes.
"Congratulations to the old god..."
Kong Qing, who was kneeling on the ground at this time, felt a little confused.
What's going on?
For such a big matter as becoming a disciple, wouldn't anyone consult the person involved?
"Come and kowtow!"
Following Su Yuanlang's loud voice, Kong Qing suddenly felt a pressure on his head, and he hit the ground bang bang bang several times in a row.
