"You want to be the host of this Mayi Taoist temple. How can you do it without a Taoist certificate and qualification certificate?"
The old Taoist was very disapproving of Ye Tian's question, waved his hand and said: "We are not Quanzhen Tao, no one will care about your marriage and children. Besides, Mai's family respects you, even if we find you two in the future
Senior brother, they can’t control you..."
In modern Taoism, except for the Quanzhen sect and the closely related Yinxian sect, because they practice the pure elixir method of solitary cultivation, their disciples are prohibited from marrying.
As for Zhengyi Sect, that is, Shangqing, Lingbao and other sects, there are two types of Taoist priests, Huoju and monks. Monks live in palaces, do not marry and observe fasting, while Huoju Taoists can marry and have children.
As for the Celestial Master Dao, it does not care about matters such as the marriage of disciples. Since Celestial Master Zhang Daoling, all the Celestial Masters of all generations have inherited the legal system as direct relatives.
"But...but I really don't want to be a Taoist priest!"
When he was young, Ye Tian felt that it was fun to wear Taoist robes, but now that he was given the identity of a Taoist priest, he was a little reluctant.
Since the age of fifteen, Ye Tian has seldom worn traditional attire when traveling. After all, he is still a young man and is quite concerned about the opinions of the society.
"Ye Tian, you are the only disciple beside me. If you don't take over the Taoist temple, then the ancestral property will be taken away by the government. I, the Taoist, don't have the face to meet the ancestors of all generations, right?
!”
After hearing what Ye Tian said, the old Taoist showed a sad look on his face and burst into tears: "I think that my lineage, Mai, has been the leader in martial arts in the past dynasties. If I have lost my ancestor's orthodoxy in my generation, the old Taoist will
I won’t die with my eyes closed!”
"Master, you...don't be anxious..."
Ye Tian had seen children act out, and he often did it himself, but this was the first time he had seen an old man over a hundred years old act like a rogue, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
"Master, isn't it enough that I promised you? Just stop acting. I've been crying for a long time and you can't even see tears falling down..."
Thinking that the Taoist temple was located deep in the beautiful Maoshan Mountains, it was a pity that it was taken back by the government, so even though he knew that the master was making excuses, Ye Tian still agreed.
And looking at the ultimatum that Lao Dao had already prepared, Ye Tian also knew that he had already planned it. Even if he didn't agree, Lao Tao would have other ways.
Ye Tian's guess was correct. The old Taoist had originally left a suicide note for him, but he didn't expect that this apprentice would have the ability to change his fate against the will of heaven and bring him back from the underworld. That's why he beat the gong in front of him and drummed in the opposite direction.
Explain clearly to Ye Tian——
As the Spring Festival approaches, the spirit of the new year in the small county town becomes stronger and stronger. After more than ten days of cultivation, except for the gray and white hair, Ye Tian is no different from ordinary people.
It was New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye. After discussing with Wang Ying, Feng Kuang and Wang Ying decided to go to Ye Tian's house to celebrate the New Year with them. With the addition of a crying baby from time to time, the originally deserted home became lively.
Although the New Year's Eve dinner is only a meal in the evening, the preparations have been busy since early in the morning.
It's strange to say that it doesn't matter whether it's the old Ye's family or Feng Kuang's family, both are yin and yang, and it's always the old men who do the work. At this moment, Ye Dongping and Feng Kuang are killing chickens and ducks in the yard. They are very busy.
It's such a joy.
Even Ye Tian, who had yet to recover from his internal injuries, was ordered to do this and that. Fortunately, his vitality was only injured and would not recover in a day or two. It would be fine if he did some work.
"Ye Tian, go outside and take a look. Who's knocking on this New Year's Eve?"
Ye Dongping heard the doorbell ringing at the door. He was washing and peeling a chicken and couldn't leave.
"okay!"
Ye Tian agreed, threw the eel he had just caught back into the basin, washed his hands and walked towards the door.
"Qing...Qingya, Yu...Yu uncle?"
Seeing a car parked at the door and the two people standing in front of him, Ye Tian was a little dumbfounded. He never expected that on this thirty-year-old day, Yu Haoran and his daughter would actually come to the door?
"Ye...Ye Tian, you...why do you look like this?"
Ye Tian was startled, and so were the two people standing at the door. Seeing Ye Tian's originally black and translucent hair turning gray, Yu Qingya's tears were already welling up in her eyes.
"We'll talk about this later. Uncle Yu, Qingya, come in quickly..."
Ye Tian scratched his head. He really couldn't explain the matter of his hair turning gray to outsiders. He stepped aside and shouted into the yard: "Dad, Uncle Yu is here, and Qingya..."
"Lao Yu, Xi Ke, Qing Ya is getting more and more beautiful as she grows..."
Hearing Ye Tian's shout, Ye Dongping and Feng Kuang came forward. They had been old friends for many years, especially Feng Kuang, who had opened a textile factory in the county in the past few years and received Yu Haoran's support.
Little help.
"Lao Ye, I'm here to have a drink with you. Xiao Feng, this is a red envelope for your daughter. Don't say that Uncle Yu is stingy..."
Although he was full of questions, now was obviously not a good time to ask. Yu Haoran greeted Ye Dongping and Feng Kuang with a smile. He looked up and saw Lao Dao sitting in the yard with his eyes squinted in the sun, and was stunned for a moment.
You should know that the reason why Yu Haoran came to Ye Tian's house on New Year's Eve was that Maoshan was his daughter's grandmother's house and he was going to visit relatives after the New Year's Eve. Secondly, he heard that the old man was in poor health and wanted to come and visit.
But I didn't expect this meeting. Although the old Taoist's face was not glowing, judging from his mental outlook, he didn't look like a person with only one breath left, right?
Thinking of this, Yu Haoran glanced at his daughter with dissatisfaction. This girl wanted Ye Tian so much that she actually made up such an excuse for herself. This girl was too outgoing too early.
"Old...Old Uncle Li, how...are you in good health? I wish you a happy New Year!" Although he was a little dissatisfied, he still had to be polite. Yu Haoran stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the old man.
Bowed.
"Is it Yu Yu, the girl is here too? This child and Ye Tian are destined to be married, so they should move around more..."
The old Taoist smiled and waved his hand, looking at Ye Tian standing next to Yu Qingya, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. In order to change his fate against the will of heaven, Ye Tian had paid too much.
Seeing several people standing in the yard, Feng Kuang said: "Uncle Ye, please accompany Uncle Yu to the house to talk. I will do the work here..."
"Yes, yes, come into the house, come in and talk, Qingya, Uncle Ye recently bought a good pair of bracelets, I will put them on for you later..."
After hearing what Feng Kuang said, Ye Dongping hurriedly greeted him, and he was also filled with joy when he saw his beautiful future daughter-in-law.
"Lao Ye, don't spoil your children like that..."
The words of Lao Dao and Ye Dongping made Yu Haoran a little bit dumbfounded, but it was hard to say anything more. He personally agreed to the matter, and his daughter was also happy with it. Even if he wanted to regret it, he couldn't say it.
"Dad, I'm here to help..."
Since entering the courtyard, Yu Qingya's thoughts have been focused on Ye Tian. Wherever Ye Tian is, she will be there.
"Okay, you two talk, Lao Yu, come in and sit down..."
After hearing what Yu Qingya said, Ye Dongping didn't say much and let Yu Haoran in. Although there was Wang Ying coaxing the child in the room, they were all acquaintances, so there was nothing to be taboo about.
"Ye Tian, you...what's wrong with you?"
Yu Qingya walked up to Ye Tian and grabbed the corner of his clothes, but she couldn't hold back her tears anymore and started falling down.
Not only did Ye Tianke's hair turn gray, but his complexion on his face was also very bad. He looked as if he had aged ten or twenty years. Looking into Yu Qingya's eyes, she felt extremely distressed.
Ye Tian smiled and took out a tissue, helped Yu Qingya wipe the tears on her face, and said: "It's okay, it will only last a year and a half. Qingya, I may not be able to go to this school..."
In fact, Ye Dongping once proposed that Ye Tian continue his studies at Yanjing's house in the courtyard, but this was rejected by the old Taoist. The air in the city was dirty, which was not conducive to Ye Tian's cultivation.
"It's okay, I won't go to school anymore. I'll stay here with you..." Yu Qingya said with tears in her eyes.
"Silly girl, when you go to your school, are you still afraid that I will be lost by a vixen in the mountains?" Ye Tian laughed when he heard the words, but in his heart he felt a strong affection from the people around him.
"You are so pretty, who would want you like this?" Yu Qingya burst into tears at Ye Tian's words and laughed.
"Hey, don't believe it, don't you feel that my hair has turned gray and I have become more handsome?" Ye Tian smiled and said to Yu Qingya, but the movements of his hands were not slow at all, moving each piece
The eel was disemboweled and cut into pieces.
In fact, Ye Tian was right. After his hair turned white, his delicate face actually became a bit more elegant, adding an indescribable charm to his whole person.
"Lao Ye, what happened to this kid Xiaotian? I saw him in Yanjing last year and he was fine..."
Not to mention Ye Tian and Yu Qingya were whispering, after entering the room, Yu Haoran couldn't wait to ask the same question as Ye Dongping.
"I don't know about this, but Uncle Li was really dying a few days ago. When Ye Tian came back, he drove us down the mountain..."
If there were no accidents, Yue Hou and Yu Haoran must be in-laws. Ye Dongping also wanted to hide it from him and told him everything that happened to Ye Tian and Lao Dao.
"Change your fate against the will of heaven?!" After listening to Ye Dongping's story, Yu Haoran took a breath of cold air.
Yu Haoran had already taken a high look at Ye Tian, but now he realized that Ye Tian's ability was far beyond his imagination. What kind of means was needed to save a dying person?
