Three hundred and ninetieth chapters Qingqiong Chuan Xuansheng
Lin Tingzhi immediately called Taoist Mingzhou out and gave him a few careful instructions. Taoist Mingzhou gave him a heads-up and then went down to deliver the order.
When Zhang Yu saw this, he knew that there was no chance of a repeat of the matter. He was not surprised that Taoist Wan Ming was chosen as the successor to the Emperor Xuan of Dongting. In fact, if he did not choose the person he recommended, it would not be Zhengqing's turn.
After all, Zhengqing still adheres to his own Taoism, and Xuan Ting undoubtedly knows this. This alone makes Xuan Ting unable to fully trust him.
The main reason why he can return this time is to fight against Shang Chentian, which requires his combat power.
Although Xuan Ting had no intention of abandoning him after using him, it was obviously impossible to place this person in a more influential position.
It's okay for him to go and guard foreign affairs, but the Dongting Continent is one of the four major continents that have opened up to the outside world. It is a new continent that is still growing. It is impossible to hand over such an important place to him.
and allow them to exert influence.
And there is another point that is easily overlooked. Taoist Zhengqing's junior brother Cen Chuan has already served as the guard of Changhe Fuzhou. If Taoist Zhengqing goes to Dongting again, he will be the second among the four major fuzhous.
As long as Xuan Ting had a choice, he would not do this.
At this moment, in a palace somewhere in the sea of clouds, Taoist Wanming was preaching in the Xuntian Daozhang.
His sermons have always been profound and easy to understand. No matter what level of Taoist cultivator you are, you can all understand it. This is because as a Xuanzun, he knows what it is and why he can do this.
However, there are many Xuanzuns, but there are not many who are willing to bend down and explain this clearly to the disciples below.
After each sermon, when others came to ask questions, he would patiently answer them one by one. It is impossible for ordinary people to answer hundreds of questions by one person, but Xuanzun has no difficulty and can understand what you are saying in an instant.
He said what he meant and responded to it, and only one clone could handle the matter.
At this time, he suddenly felt something and saw a bright light. Taoist Master Mingzhou appeared here, slapped him on his head and said, "Wanming Xuanzun is polite."
Taoist Wan Ming apologized in Xun Tian and asked a disciple to preside over the sermon on his behalf. Then he left the Taoist chapter of Xun Tian, stood up and returned the greeting, saying: "It turns out to be Taoist Brother Mingzhou, but do you care about me?"
Mingzhou Taoist said: "In this Xuanting court meeting, Zhang Shangzun proposed that Wanmingxuanzun be the guard of Dongting. Therefore, Mingzhou came to ask, I wonder if Wanmingxuanzun has any objections to this? If so, you can express your opinion.
.”
Taoist Wan Ming was a little surprised and said: "Zhang Shangzun? Guard of Dongting? Isn't this guard Zhang Shouzheng? Could it be..." He was shocked and suddenly thought of a possibility.
Ming Zhou Taoist said: "Xuan Ting has not yet announced this matter, but we can inform Wan Ming Xuan Zun that Zhang Shang Zun has been promoted from the original guard of Dongting to Xuan Ting Tingzun."
Taoist Wan Ming took a deep breath and said, "That's it. Thank you Taoist friend Mingzhou for informing me."
Mingzhou Taoist said: "There is a copy of Xuan Ting's question here, and I would like to ask Wanming Xuanzun to take a look at it." After saying this, he handed over a copy of the question.
Taoist Wan Ming took this over and looked through it. It stated that Xuanting proposed that he should succeed Dongting Xuanshou. However, if he did not want to do this, he could refuse it.
But if he wants to be awarded a title in the future, it may be hindered by this.
Taoist Mingzhou looked at him and said, "I wonder what Wanming Xuanzun's reply was?"
Taoist Wan Ming thought carefully for a moment and said cautiously: "Wan Ming is willing to accept this position."
The Taoist priest of Mingzhou made an official announcement and said: "Mingzhou will report Xuanzun's words back to the court. Afterwards, Xuanting will discuss it and a formal edict will be sent to it."
Taoist Wan Ming bowed his hands and said, "Excuse me, fellow Taoist."
After Ming Zhou Taoist said goodbye to him, he went back to resume his duties. The court officials saw that there were no twists and turns, so the decision was made.
The next court meeting was to discuss the place where Taoist Zhengqing went. This matter did not go back and forth very much. All the court officials approved that he went to the outer layer, and finally decided that he went to Xusu to guard Qisu in the north.
Next, the court officials discussed some trivial matters. After the discussion was completed, the chimes were ringing. After bowing to the first Taoist, the court officials dispersed.
Lin Tingzhi, however, took a step back and said to the first Taoist priest: "Chief Executive, Zhang Tingzhi has already attended the court. Can we announce his promotion to Tingzhi?"
The first Taoist said: "It can be announced according to etiquette."
Lin Ting agreed.
On Zhang Yu's side, he saw that the court meeting was over and he was going to return to the main palace. Feng Taoist used the Xuntian Daozhang to spread the word: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, is it possible to talk about it?"
Zhang Yu paused and responded: "Of course you can."
Feng Taoist walked up. He waved his sleeves, and a long boat reached his feet. He slowly crossed from the sea of clouds to his eyes. He stretched out his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, please."
Zhang Yu nodded and stepped up, suddenly feeling a surge of vitality permeating the air. As Feng Taoist also walked up, he saw a green air rising up, forming a roof at a high place, with a table in front of him.
When they were born, Feng Taoist invited Zhang Yu to sit down and called out. Above the sea of clouds, there was a god who was responsible for the stars and poured tea and water for them.
Feng Taoist said: "Fellow Taoist, you haven't visited above the sea of clouds since you came to the upper level, right?"
Zhang Yudao: "Indeed not."
He is in the upper echelon, he is practicing most of the time, and rarely goes out to play. This is also because he is different from other court officials. He has a clone to guard the East Courtyard, and as a shouzheng, Tianxia can go anywhere without prior notice.
Communication.
Feng Dao Ren said: "After I, Tian Xia, opened the upper level here, I recreated the scenery of ancient Xia one by one above the sea of clouds. It can be said that the scenery is the same as that of that time. All fellow true cultivators can also
It was hidden cultivation among these many scenic spots." He stretched out his hand and pointed, "Look, the Three Mountains of Yinglai in the ancient Xia Dynasty evolved from this."
Zhang Yu looked over and saw three mountains looming in the sea of clouds. They were spectacular, majestic and majestic, and quite a fairyland.
At this time, Taoist Feng said with some emotion: "In the past, those true cultivators, just like these scenery, were hidden in the sea of clouds and deep mountains, far away from the ordinary world. Therefore, Feng always believed that since the establishment of Tianxia, the true way of Dharma has long been
It is alienation from the mortal world. Now is the time for my generation of Xuanxiu to emerge and open up a new path."
Zhang Yu did not deny this, and there was some truth to what Feng Daoren said.
In the ancient Xia and Shenxia times, Taoism could only be practiced by a few elites, and this generation would inevitably break away from the mortal world after possessing great power, because the two sides were chasing different things. On the contrary,
Later, with the birth of Tianxia, there suddenly was a big change, and I started to look down.
He was also very interested in the reason for this, because the original sect system was actually very stable, so stable that it could last forever as Guyang said.
Why on earth did such a change occur suddenly?
However, the records on the golden book are unclear. Judging from the context, it can only be said that this is a conscious change from top to bottom, and this change also fits the middle and lower classes, so that the upper and lower classes can be accommodated. Until now, this process
It was still going on, and Xuan Xiu was able to respond to the situation.
At this moment, Taoist Feng said again: "If my Xuanfa wants to be carried forward, it is not enough to just focus on the bottom. Xuanting is supporting me today, but it can abandon me tomorrow. But now the court is in charge, only Daoyou Zhang and I are very powerful."
Weak, only by having another Xuanxiu court leader to advance and retreat together can we be stable."
Zhang Yuneng understands the worries of the Feng Taoists. This is because they themselves were promoted by Xuanting. In addition, Shangchentian has been destroyed, and the role of Xuanfa does not seem to be as great as before, so they are anxious to consolidate their foundation.
But in fact, it does not need to be like this. If Xuan Ting originally supported Xuan Fa for a certain purpose, after more than three hundred years of inheritance, Xuan Fa has been integrated into the entire Tianxia and has become an inseparable part.
,
As long as Dao Nian's overall strategy remains unchanged, there is no need to worry too much.
Even conscious suppression is a long-term process, and there is plenty of time to fight against it. If you want to remove it in a short time, it will inevitably cause great turmoil, which is almost impossible.
He said at this time: "Fellow Taoist, have you ever thought about why Xuanfa exists?"
Taoist Feng thought for a while and said: "When Feng was practicing Taoism, he thought that the mysterious method was to fight against foreign enemies, but later he thought that it might be able to give people the door to enter the Tao. And why is this so? Feng once had a
I guess, maybe the path of the true Dharma has reached a certain extreme, and it is difficult to go up on one's own, so more practitioners are needed."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. Taoist Feng's thoughts were similar to what he was thinking. From the original origin of Taoism, we can see that it was the wisdom of all living beings that gave birth to Taoism, and those who later stood out from it made Taoism flourish.
But it can be seen that the higher you go in pursuit of Taoism, the rarer it becomes. He guessed that it may be that a very small number of people have difficulty going up on their own. Perhaps more people need to become fellow Taoists in order to continue to seek the Tao.
, which in turn forces the higher-ups to lean down and look down.
But this is just a hypothesis, just a judgment he made based on the appearance in front of him. What the truth is has yet to be verified. Judging from Guan Chaosheng's words and Huo Heng's words, I'm afraid things are not that simple.
He said: "I have told fellow Taoists that I promote Xuanfa because Xuanfa can give people another way to reach the upper realm, not because of Xuanfa itself."
He looked at Feng Taoist and said: "As long as the true meaning of this Taoist thought remains unchanged and can be accepted by the world, the further we go, the more fellow Taoists we will have. And if everyone has this thought, then it doesn't matter who you are."
It doesn’t matter what kind of Tao or Dharma you have cultivated.”
Taoist Feng thought deeply for a moment. He slowly nodded and said solemnly: "I know what my fellow Taoist meant. Feng believes that those who come after him will be better than those who came before him. The obstacles encountered by the true method and the mysterious method should not be overcome."
The same wrong path..."
While he was talking, he suddenly heard a series of melodious chime sounds. The sound lingered in the clouds and kept shaking the sky for a long time. He looked at it and said: "This must be Xuan Ting's announcement to all regions.
This music was played to commemorate the promotion of Taoist friend Zhang to the post of imperial eunuch."
Zhang Yu listened to this voice and said slowly: "This is the voice of Xuan, and it is also my voice. It comes from the fact that the way of heaven is the way of humanity. Fellow Feng Daoist, on the road to the road, you and I should encourage each other."
