Located in the east and north of Dajing, there are three large rivers rolling through the territory. The terrain is majestic and the weather is diverse.
Jizhou.
It is located in the south of Sanjiang Road, south of Dongtian River and north of Yijiang River. It has beautiful mountains and rivers and outstanding people.
Baiyun Mountain.
Located among the rolling mountains outside Jizhou Prefecture, it is the head of the surrounding mountains. It overlooks Jizhou Prefecture in the west and the Dongtian River in the north.
Baiyun Temple.
The Taoist sect is located on the hillside of Baiyun Mountain. The gate is not big and the hall is not wide, but it is quite quiet, elegant, elegant and comfortable.
…
There are still ten days left before the Chinese New Year, and Baiyun Mountain is already covered in snow, and there is still heavy snow falling in the sky, making the sky and the earth completely white.
On a mountain path that turns away from the official road, from time to time, ordinary farmers and wealthy business families would come in the snow to go up the mountain to pray.
On this day, a middle-aged Taoist priest brought a young Taoist priest and a white-faced scholar to the foot of Baiyun Mountain.
"We're here!" Taoist Master Mingzhang raised his head and looked at Baiyun Mountain with a smile on his face, giving him a relaxed feeling of going home.
Yuan Jing explained to Lu Zheng later, "The Taoist temple of Baiyun Temple in the front mountain is mainly used to receive pilgrims from all over the world, welcome and send pilgrims, gain a foothold in the world, and deal with various secular affairs. There are also some thatched cottages and caves in the back mountain, which are for viewing
A place of pure cultivation for the elders..."
Lu Zheng nodded, expressing understanding.
Most cultivators don't live without food. Whether it's food, clothing or repairing temples, these all cost money. Refining elixirs, refining medicines, and protecting the magical tools don't fall from the sky.
Although these are not the foundation for cultivating immortality and becoming a Taoist, immortality is difficult and most people still find it difficult to live forever. Therefore, most people will not refuse if they can live a better and smoother life on the path of cultivation, at least in Baiyun Temple.
The three of them all had magic powers, and they quickly passed the people on the road. When the people saw Taoist Mingzhang, they all consciously stepped aside to let Taoist Mingzhang and his entourage go first.
.
"Hello, Chief Taoist!"
"I've met the Taoist priest!"
"There is also a handsome scholar!"
"This scholar is so fast on his feet. Could it be that he is also a strange person?"
"Should he be taken by a real person? Or are he planning to worship at Baiyun Temple?"
"Then he is lucky!"
The three of them walked along, greeting the people on the road.
Lu Zheng asked Yuan Jing quietly, "Does everyone know Master?"
Yuan Jing shook his head and said, "I don't know you, but we are all pilgrims in the temple. It is reasonable to greet each other when we meet, right?"
Lu Zheng blinked and nodded, "Yes, that's right, it makes sense."
"Uncle Mingzhang!"
"Senior Brother Yuanjing!"
"Yuanping! Yuanruo!" Taoist Master Mingzhang looked at the two young Taoist priests at the mountain gate.
The two looked at Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng took the lead and said, "Yuan Zheng, a layman from the outer sect, has met two senior brothers."
"Hello, junior brother!"
The two little Taoist priests were still very curious. How could an outsider layman be taken back to Baiyun Temple by Taoist Master Mingzhang to celebrate the New Year?
Taoist priest Mingzhang led Yuan Jing and Lu Zheng past the mountain gate and continued up the mountain. Soon they arrived at Baiyun Temple halfway up the mountain.
Green tiles and white walls, surrounded by mountains and trees, with thick white snow on the green pines and cypresses. Although the cold wind is biting, it cannot conceal the Taoist temple's artistic conception.
Along the way, there were Taoist priests sweeping snow, Taoist priests entertaining guests, chanting sutras, and working.
Taoist Master Mingzhang took Yuan Jing and Lu Zheng all the way to the backyard. They quickly escaped from the hustle and bustle of the front yard and arrived at a side hall.
Gu Yan
"Brother Mingjing!"
"Hello, uncle!"
"Junior Brother Mingzhang!" An old Taoist priest with gray hair and beard stood up from the futon and looked at Taoist Master Mingzhang and then at Lu Zheng, "Is this the Lu Zheng you wrote about?"
"Exactly." Taoist Master Mingzhang nodded and said in a calm tone, "This child has a good temperament and a good talent. He has been practicing for more than a year now, and he has barely achieved a hundred years of Taoism. He has also mastered the body-fixing spell.
I thought that although he was an outsider, he still had a Taoist heart, so I brought him back to participate in the New Year Dharma Assembly in the temple, and by the way, he was registered in the Taoist register."
Director Ming Jing:???
"What did you say? One year of practice, a hundred years of Taoism, and a body-fixing spell?"
Taoist Master Mingzhang waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's all trivial matters, don't worry about it. Yuan Zheng, this is your Uncle Mingjing. Most of the clerical affairs in the temple will be handled by him."
"I've met my uncle!" Lu Zheng saluted.
"Okay! Okay!" Taoist Master Ming Jing looked at Lu Zheng in surprise, "Have you learned the immobilization spell? How did you learn it? Ming Zhang can't even do it?"
"Ahem!" Taoist Master Mingzhang coughed twice.
Lu Zheng said with a serious face, "It all depends on Master's guidance."
Taoist priest Ming Jing raised his eyebrows and looked at Taoist priest Ming Zhang, "You said he has a good character?"
"Ahem!"
Taoist Master Mingzhang coughed twice again, "Although I haven't mastered the Immobilizing Spell yet, my understanding of the Immobilizing Spell is already strong."
Taoist Priest Ming Jing curled his lips and was about to speak when a voice rang out in the hall, "Oh, do you know how to hold the body spell? Let me see."
"Certainly!"
After the sound, Lu Zheng felt that his whole body was stiff. Except for thinking, even his pupils could not move at all.
Damn it! He finally knows what it feels like to be under a immobilization spell!
He frantically mobilized the true energy in his body, and attacked according to his understanding of the Immobilization Curse, but the Immobilization Curse imprisoned him like a steel cage, without any movement... Hey, it jumped?
"Huh? You really know the holding spell."
As soon as he finished speaking, a Taoist priest with a young face and bright eyes appeared in the hall.
"I've met Master Qingsong!" Taoist priest Ming Zhang and Taoist Ming Jing bowed together.
"I have met Master Qingsong!" Yuan Jing also bowed hurriedly.
Good guy! Great uncle!
"No gifts, no gifts." Qingsong waved his hand and said "Relieve", and Lu Zheng felt a light touch on his body, and the spell was released.
"I've met Master Qingsong!" Lu Zheng bowed and saluted honestly.
"You have not only practiced Taoism for a hundred years, but almost two hundred years. Have you really practiced Taoism for only one year?" Taoist Master Qingsong asked.
"One and a half years!" Lu Zheng answered honestly.
"Yes, he is a good young man in Taoism. He is just a little slower than I was back then." Taoist priest Qingsong nodded in praise.
Lu Zheng, "..."
"It's our first time meeting you, and I decided to give it to you as soon as we met. This pine cone is given to you as a meeting gift." Taoist Master Qingsong turned his hand over, and a walnut-sized pine cone appeared in his hand, crystal clear.
"Okay, I'm leaving." Taoist Master Qingsong handed the pine cone to Lu Zheng, then waved his hand, and then a white cloud suddenly appeared under his feet, holding him and flying out of the side hall.
Towards the back mountain.
Soaring in the clouds and riding in the fog!
Seeing Taoist Master Qingsong fly away, the few people stood up straight.
Taoist Priest Ming Jing looked at Lu Zheng with envy in his eyes, then smiled and nodded, "Okay, let me enter the Taoist books for you first."
