In the Kunlun Mountains, the splendid Yuxu Palace hangs in the air among several fairy mountains shrouded in fairy mist. White clouds are rippling under the palace. A staircase connecting the fairy mountains and the palace sinks far away from the fairy mountains into the white clouds under the empty palace, and then appears again.
At the entrance of the palace, walking on the stairs were three Taoist priests dressed in fairy clothes. Their faces were like frost-beaten eggplants, looking listless, and they walked slowly towards Yuxu Palace. These three Taoist priests were Zhang Hupan who was in the palace.
Ling Tong and his two junior brothers met on the way to explore the secrets of Tiandao.
Lingtong was obviously very reluctant to step into the Yuxu Palace in front of him. He sighed and complained again and again along the way, "Oh! I said Lingyu, Lingbi, my father must have gone to retreat to practice again this time when he came to us. This retreat is really
I don’t know how long it will take to come out! I haven’t had enough fun this time!” As he said this, he shook his head like a rattle.
Lingyu and Lingbi are nominally spiritual disciples. In fact, they are the boys chosen by Kunlun headmaster Tianchen Taoist priest and Xianxia sect elder Zixia fairy for their precious sons since childhood. So on the surface, the three of them are junior brothers, but in fact they are
It is a master-servant relationship. Lingyu and Lingbi have been extremely talented since they were young, but they have not been blessed with a good fortune like Lingtong. They do not have a prominent identity, and they do not have a father and mother with great skills. They cannot do nothing like Lingtong every day.
But they can still take a shortcut to practice by relying on the ancient elixir. Under the subtle influence of Lingtong, a playboy, the two of them not only have no pursuits, but even start to contract some of Lingtong's bad habits, wasting their great talents and practicing for thousands of years.
The early stage of Nascent Soul.
The master is so worried at the moment. Of course, Lingyu and Lingbi have to solve the master's problems. In fact, from the bottom of their hearts, they really don't want to do this kind of boring retreat. Thinking about their cultivation in the Nascent Soul stage, their lives are almost gone.
Limit, what can you do if you continue to practice! What's more, with the current level of cultivation, if you want to improve again, it will not happen overnight. It is better to fool around with Lingtong to be more worry-free and happy, and as long as you make the master happy, you may be able to
If you get a little reward, it is a good elixir! It is something that can greatly nourish people above the Nascent Soul stage. Taking such elixir can improve their cultivation much faster than their hard work.
While the three of them were complaining, they saw a Taoist priest wearing green fairy clothes coming out of Yuxu Palace, holding a boy of about four or five years old in his hand, and happily walking toward Lingtong and the other three. When he came to them,
He hurriedly saluted respectfully and called his great uncle.
"Hey, aren't you Gan Ming? I haven't seen you for fifty years, why did you bring a boy to the temple?" Ling Tong is very excited when he discovers new things. This Gan Ming is an extremely shrewd person.
In the past, he flattered the soul boy from behind and in front of him, which made him very popular with Ling Tong. Ling Tong also had a very deep impression on him. After fifty years of separation, he could still call out the Taoist priest's name in one breath.
"Uncle Master Qi, I met this child when I was young in the mortal world. I thought he was extremely talented and had a good connection with heaven, so I accepted him as my disciple. I returned to the mountain gate today and came to pay homage to my ancestors. I also helped him by the way.
He entered it into the roster." Qian Ming replied respectfully.
"The secular world, you said you have been to the secular world in the past few decades, no wonder! By the way, what is the secular world like? Is it fun? Tell me something interesting." Ling Tong couldn't help but be very interested.
Qian Ming is extremely shrewd, and with decades of experience in the secular world, he is even more tactful and clever in dealing with people. Everyone knows the identity of Qian Ming, the crown prince of Kunlun, and many people eagerly hope to be able to do it for him. Now that this great opportunity has fallen to me, I have to use all my abilities to serve this proud man of heaven. So, in the sky and on the earth, southeast and northwest, Qian Ming specially picked some interesting things to tell and tell them to the wise listeners. Those who heard the wise words would light up their eyes. , scratching their heads and scratching their heads, wishing they could immediately fly to that fun place mentioned by Qian Ming. Lingyu and Lingbi were the same, and they began to secretly think about how to pour more fire on Lingtong's anxious heart. If Lingtong could go to the secular world, they would do their part. Definitely have to go along.
After talking for several hours, Ling Tong reluctantly let Qian Ming leave. Of course, there were some benefits before leaving. Qian Ming was so happy that he secretly praised himself for his cleverness in doing things. This elixir was at least worth it. A few years of practice and a few hours can be exchanged for several years of practice. This kind of business is really profitable.
"The two junior brothers really didn't listen and didn't know. They were shocked when they heard it. They used to think that Kunlun Mountain was a fairyland on earth and there was no place more interesting than this. But now they realized that they were totally wrong. It turns out that the real world is the real world. A fun place. Movies, TV, bars, casinos..., listen and see how interesting it is!" Ling Tong said with eyes shining, becoming more and more excited the more he talked.
Lingyu and Lingbi had just listened to their thoughts, but they were speaking softly and their master didn't say anything. They never dared to make their own decisions. Seeing that their master had the same thoughts as themselves, they immediately seized the opportunity and started to fan the flames, "Yes, yes, this The secular world is the real fun! It’s just that when we come back this time, we are likely to go into seclusion for cultivation. How can we be allowed to go to the secular world! Alas! What a pity! What a pity!” Lingyu shook his head and sighed, but his eyes were secretly paying attention. With the change of facial expressions.
"Yes, practicing in seclusion is so boring. I want to go to the secular world right now. What can the two junior brothers do?"
What he wanted was Lingtong's words. Lingyu hurriedly said: "Actually... it's not impossible. Think about it, who decides on all the big and small things in Kunlun Mountain?"
"Headmaster and all the elders!" Ling Tong replied a little doubtfully.
"Yes! Isn't the headmaster your father? As long as he agrees, you are not..."
"That's easy to say!" Isn't this obviously impossible! Ling Tong interrupted Ling Yu hastily and retorted, "My father is about to order us to retreat, how could he be willing to let me go down the mountain!"
"Isn't Fairy Zixia here recently, huh?"
"Oh, this is a clever idea. Why didn't I think of it? Who doesn't know that my father is most afraid of my mother, and my mother loves me the most. Haha, that's it. I'll go to my mother first." He said, I couldn't wait to see Fairy Zixia right away. As expected, Fairy Zixia couldn't stand the strong request of her precious son, so Fairy Zixia agreed to take Lingtong's request to his father, so she took Lingtong to Yuxu Palace.
At this time, in a side hall of Yuxu Palace, on the spotless white jade floor, there was a futon carved from fine jade. There was a child-like figure with white hair and a strange appearance, with an unusual Taoist flavor. He had a wide robe with big sleeves and smooth skin. The baby-like Taoist priest is sitting upright on the futon, with his hands clasped in front of his chest, and the fairy aura lingering on his head. This person is the Taoist Master Tianchen of Kunlun. The Taoist Priest Tianchen, who is sitting in meditation, slowly opens his eyes, Two rays of light flashed past, with a helpless bitter smile on his face, and he said to himself: "What an injustice, how could I, Tianchen, give birth to such an impetuous son? This time I just wanted him to practice in seclusion for a period of time, but I invited him again. Fairy Zixia."
Sure enough, in less than a moment, Fairy Zixia and Lingtong entered the side hall. On weekdays, although Taoist Master Tianchen dotes on his only son, he will never let him do whatever he wants. As a father, he still has the most basic dignity.
Although Lingtong is rebellious, he still doesn’t dare to be too presumptuous in front of Taoist Master Tianchen. Especially when he asks for help, he will try his best to behave like a good boy. Just like now, the soul boy seems to see his father
There was no kind expression on his face, and he was like a mouse meeting a cat. After calling him dad obediently, he stood quietly to one side, but kept winking at Fairy Zixia.
Fairy Zixia immediately understood and said slowly: "Ling Tong said that he wanted to go to the secular world to experience it. After thinking about it, I thought it would be a good thing to let Ling Tong enter the secular world to experience it!"
What! This bastard has been making trouble all day long in Kunlun Mountain. He has not caused enough trouble. Now he actually wants to go to the secular world and calls it "experience". It is getting more and more unnecessary. Taoist priest Tianchen looked at Lingtong and said,
The more he looked at it, the more angry he felt that he hated iron for not becoming steel. But what the wife said, even though Tianchen, the most famous wife slave in Kunlun, had a hundred thousand reluctances in his heart, he couldn't refuse immediately and said: "It's just that Lingtong, this kid
He is a naughty person, and I was the only one who kept him under control in Kunlun so he didn't get into any big trouble. If he is allowed to live in the world, I'm afraid he will inevitably cause trouble and make everyone laugh!"
"I don't think so. Tong'er has never experienced anything in the world since he was born. It may be helpful for him to see more of the secular world and learn more about the sufferings of the world. What's more, China is a country of etiquette. Reading sages
Books, doing saintly deeds, and letting Tong'er go to the human world for a trip may be able to calm down his mind and become knowledgeable and sensible!" Fairy Zixia can always find reasons to persuade her husband.
"My mother is absolutely right. When I go to the secular world, I will definitely experience the ups and downs of the world and never cause trouble!" Lingtong echoed.
On the one hand, the wife has made it clear that she is on her son's side, and on the other hand, the son is determined to leave the secular world. Tianchen's determination to practice Ling Tong in seclusion begins to waver. Anyway, with Ling Tong's impetuous mind, it is unlikely that he will be able to practice in seclusion for several decades.
If there is progress, let him experience some different life. China is a land of etiquette and a land of sages. Maybe he can understand the true meaning of Taoism from it. So Tianchen nodded: "Okay.
, let Tong'er go to the secular world for some experience, but he has to bring Lingbi and Lingyu with him." After all, Tianchen felt sorry for his son, so he sent two masters from the Nascent Soul stage to accompany him. Poor Tianchen
Little did Chen know that in the so many years since he left, the secular world had already undergone earth-shaking changes, with materialistic desires and feasting, and it was absolutely impossible to read the books of saints and do the deeds of saints with a well-informed mind!
"Thank you, father!" I didn't expect Tianchen to agree so quickly. It's really my mother's turn to stand up for both of them! The excitement in my heart is so exciting! I wish I could hug Fairy Zixia and kiss her hard for a few times.
Seeing Ling Tong's excited look, Tian Chen was in a state of confusion. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "It's better to ask your senior brother Lingxu to go down the mountain with you. He will decide everything you do in the world!"
Although he was a little dissatisfied that his father had arranged a boss for him, it didn't matter. The most important thing was that he could finally change his place to play, so Lingtong hurriedly agreed and went ahead.
