"Nine Netherworlds?" Liu Qinghuan's face changed slightly: "Are you talking about the Nine Netherworlds under the Nine Heavens?"
"That's right." Xue Yi said: "On the surface, Banshan Academy is a place where Taoism is exchanged. Behind the scenes, what they do is actually intelligence and assassination. The underground forces are very large, and their hands have reached into the Nine Netherworld. So they choose people
In addition to looking at strength, the standards also have some very secret requirements that are difficult to explain clearly."
Liu Qinghuan didn't expect the truth to be like this, and said thoughtfully: "That means I should be more cautious."
Xue Yi said "Ah": "No, I'm not here to advise you not to join Banshan Academy! Your worries are a bit unnecessary. How can it be so easy to become the Yinshan envoy? They will go through layers of internal selection and requirements.
It’s very strict and it’s not easy to choose.”
He slammed the table and said loudly: "I still need your help to enter the library of Banshan Academy!"
Liu Qinghuan glanced at him sideways, and while walking to the inner room, she said to chase people away: "Okay, you don't have anything to do here, you can go."
"Hey, hey, hey, aren't you too disrespectful?" Xue Yi caught up and said: "For you, the advantages of entering Banshan Academy definitely outweigh the disadvantages. Think about it again! Think about those rich collections, think about Yun
Zhongxiandi, don’t you want to go?”
Liu Qinghuan stopped at his feet, turned around and said: "Before reaching the Mahayana, if you dare to come into contact with the aura of the immortal, you are seeking death, so I really don't want to go to the Yunzhong Immortal Land now."
He had an extremely painful experience with this.
The Immortal Root Banyan tree in Wanhu Realm is a true immortal tree, and its root system contains the aura of immortality. When he wanted to cut off a section of the tree root, a ray of the aura of immortality penetrated his body.
If it weren't for the Wanmu Zhengrong Nectar Vase, he would most likely have died on the spot with all his meridians severed.
Therefore, the conditions given by Banshan Academy for entering the Yunzhong Immortal Land to practice are actually like a piece of paper, which looks very tempting but is difficult to fulfill.
But seeing that Xue Yi seemed to be so anxious that he was about to smoke, Liu Qinghuan finally expressed his decision: "However, you can still enter Banshan Academy. Not only for you, I also have something I want to find. What's more, just because I can enter
I won’t refuse even if I go to Sangusan Mountain.”
Sangushan Mountain, hanging high in the sky, is probably the highest peak in the entire Qingming and even the Three Thousand Worlds. It is also known as the place of all dharma.
Every few years, the clouds and mists covering Sangusan Mountain will all disperse, and a large-scale Dharma assembly will be held with great grandeur. At that time, practitioners will gather, all realms will gather, and the sound of the sutras will spread thousands of miles, and the spread of the Tao will
The pattern connects the sky and the earth, which can be described as solemn and lively.
But in normal times, Sangusan Mountain is unattainable. Ordinary monks have no chance to peep into the true scenery of the mountain, and naturally have no chance to set foot there.
Therefore, when Liu Qinghuan, led by the monks from Banshan Academy, landed on the lone mountain on the left among the three peaks, he couldn't help but look around like a country bumpkin.
I saw the green sea and blue sky, towering mountains, hanging waterfalls, clouds surrounding thousands of pines, and the rich spiritual energy condensed into clouds and mist flowing in the mountains. With just a gentle breath, I felt that my chest and abdomen were being washed. And there was that
A unique tranquility and profoundness accumulated over time and artistic conception make the whole mountain appear more ethereal and mysterious, as if just standing on the path in the mountains, all the impetuous thoughts will settle down, and the mind will be as calm as nature.
Looking sideways, you can see the even more mammoth Dagushan Mountain and the Yougushan Mountain in the distance, hidden among the hazy clouds and mist.
Liu Qinghuan picked up a small stone and felt an indescribable Taoist meaning slowly flowing through the stone, making people just want to stop and comprehend it.
Seeing his expression, the leading monk pointed to a palace with cornices built high up on the mountain and said: "The main hall there is called the Jifeng Hall. It is often used as a dojo for major cultivators. Look at that
Is there only one stone lion in front of the main hall?"
Liu Qinghuan cooperated and looked far away, and saw a vivid-looking stone lion squatting on the left side in front of the palace door, but the right side was empty, which looked a bit strange.
"There is indeed only one."
The monk Jieying smiled and said: "There were originally two, but the one on the right squatted in front of the door every day and listened to the lectures in the temple. One day, he suddenly had spiritual consciousness, opened his mouth and uttered the truth like a human being, and then ran away without knowing where to go.
There is no trace of it, so there is only one left. And this one is becoming more and more energetic now, and maybe it will come back to life someday."
"More than that, every plant and tree on Sangu Mountain is often bathed in the light of Dharma Yun. Over time, it is very easy for them to develop spiritual consciousness and then cultivate it into essence..."
Liu Qinghuan closed his sleeves and secretly asked the puppet in the sleeves who was about to laugh loudly to calm down. He kept smiling and listened to the other person's detailed description of various interesting and strange things on Sangushan. Occasionally, he also chimed in with a few words of exclamation, which was fine.
The journey was very harmonious.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at an inconspicuous courtyard hidden deep in the green forest. They saw a bluestone monument standing by the roadside. It was covered with traces of wind and frost, and the ancient characters "Banshan Academy" could be vaguely seen.
Liu Qinghuan thought to himself: From the outside, this academy is quite low-key and mysterious, which is similar to what they do.
At this time, there was a creaking sound, and the closed courtyard door in front opened from the inside, and Zhenjuan Sanren, who had received the summons before, came out with a smile on his face: "Fellow Taoist Qinglin, we meet again."
After some polite greetings, Zhenjuan Sanren asked: "Since fellow Taoist arrived today, you must have made a decision to enter our hospital?"
Liu Qinghuan solemnly raised his hands and replied: "Yes, I am honored to be promoted by the academy, how can I dare to refuse. I was a small cultivator in the countryside, and I was ignorant before. It was only after that day that I found out about the reputation of the academy. I felt extremely ashamed for a moment and asked my Taoist friends.
Don't worry about my rudeness that day, I will take the trouble to give you more advice in the future."
Zhenjuan Sanren laughed loudly, patted his shoulder very affectionately and said: "You and I will all be members of the same hospital from now on. Giving advice is not important. We just need to communicate more together. Come, let's go and check in and out of the hospital first.
Let’s wait for the order to be fulfilled and then we can chat.”
Liu Qinghuan was admitted to the hospital together with him. Feeling a slight movement in his sleeve, he pretended to be curious and asked: "Fellow Taoist, can you really see many treasures that are not available in the outside world after entering the academy?"
"Of course." Zhenjuan Sanren raised his hand and pointed to the distance, showing a hint of pride: "Have you seen that tower? That is the book tower in the courtyard. There are seven floors. There are all kinds of books in it, which are hard to count. It can be said that except
In addition to the private collections of some Mahayana seniors, you can find any classics you want here. But..."
He smiled: "You have just joined the academy, and you only have permission to enter the first and second floors of the book tower. If you want to go to other floors, you need to make some contributions to the academy."
