Although the Taoist abbot and the Buddhist abbot have the same title, their functions are very different. The Buddhist abbot is the one with the highest authority in the temple and is in charge of the affairs of the temple. The main responsibility of the Taoist abbot is to preach the scriptures.
, more like the most senior professor in the Taoist temple, but the person who really has the highest management power in the Taoist temple is the supervisor.
Wearing a Taoist robe, Uncle Chang Sheng looked up at the gate of Changyun Temple for a moment, and then stepped into the palace gate.
The entire Changyun Temple is divided into three courtyards: front, middle and back. However, only the front courtyard is open to believers and pilgrims. There are many temples here, especially the Sanqing Hall in the center, which is dedicated to the Sanqing Patriarch of Taoism.
.
The middle and last two courtyards are the internal areas of Changyun Temple, where the abbot and disciples live and study Taoism.
Whether it is Ye Chen, Uncle Chang Sheng, the mysterious Ying Zhu, or Meng Changsheng in the painting, they all master spiritual energy and practice Taoist inheritance.
Therefore, the first thing that Uncle Changsheng did when he entered Changyun Temple was to go to the Sanqing Hall, kowtow to the three supreme gods of the Taoist sect, and then he came to a young Taoist priest beside him and said: "
This fellow Taoist, I wonder if you can let Pindao place an order in your place and stay for a few days?"
The little Taoist priest couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that Uncle Chang Sheng looked like an immortal, and had a bit of the extraordinary and immortal temperament found in novels.
Which Taoist temple is it? Do you have a certificate?"
According to the internal conventions of the religion, if a Taoist priest leaves his Taoist temple and goes to another place, he can stay at the local Taoist temple for a while. However, he needs to verify the identity of the other Taoist priest to avoid being taken advantage of.
When Uncle Chang Sheng heard this, he smiled and said: "I have been practicing overseas these years. I have not been to China for many years and I don't have any documents."
The little Taoist priest said with some embarrassment: "Taoist Master, according to the regulations, if you want to place an order, you must have a legal certificate to prove that you are a Taoist priest. Otherwise, the juniors will not be able to make the decision..."
Uncle Chang Sheng was not angry either. He smiled calmly and asked, "Who is your prisoner's name? What is your Taoist name?"
The little Taoist priest said with a respectful look: "Our prison name is Qingxu Sanren."
"Qingxu?" Chang Shengbo smiled slightly and said, "Could it be the little baby that Xuan Jizi adopted back then?"
The little Taoist priest was shocked when he heard this!
Prison Court Qingxu Sanren is over seventy years old this year. His life experience is very famous among domestic Taoist sects. He was abandoned outside the gate of Changyun Temple when he was just born. He was adopted by Prison Court Xuanjizi at that time. A few days ago,
For ten years, he has been studying Taoism with Xuan Jizi, and then took over the post of Supervisor. It can be said that he has dedicated his whole life to Taoism and is the true master of Taoism today.
A master with such seniority was called a little baby by Uncle Chang Sheng. Naturally, the little Taoist priest was shocked. He couldn't help asking Uncle Chang Sheng: "This Taoist priest, do you know our prison?"
Chang Shengbo said calmly: "Not only do I know him, I also hugged him when he was little."
"Ah?!" The little Taoist priest was stunned for a moment!
He couldn't help but murmured: "Our prison director is already over seventy years old. You hugged him when he was young, so aren't you at least over ninety years old? But I think you are only over sixty years old."
He looks so old..."
Uncle Chang Sheng smiled and said, "I can't tell you clearly. You can report it to him and say that Master Chang Qing wants to see him."
"Master Changqing..." the little Taoist priest murmured. Although he had never heard of this Taoist name, seeing Chang Shengbo's unpredictable appearance, he did not dare to neglect him, so he said: "Taoist master, please follow me to the meeting.
In the living room, I will report it to Master right now, and then ask Master to report it to the prison!"
