"Thank you for your help today. I wonder how long Mr. Lu will stay in Huizhou and when will he return to Tonglin County? It's been such an inconvenience today. I would like to bring my wife and daughter to the door to say thank you someday." Du Yuru said, cupping his hands.
"Mr. Du, you're welcome. For me, this matter is a piece of cake. When a cultivator encounters danger from foreign objects, it is his duty to help." Lu Zheng waved his hand and said.
"But this matter is a life-saving favor for me and my mother." Du Yueyao said clearly, "Young master doesn't care, but we can't just do nothing and not repay the kindness. This is not the duty of scholars."
Mrs. Du was stunned when she heard this and looked at her daughter with thoughtful eyes.
Lu Zheng didn't think much about it, but what Du Yueyao said made sense. After all, he still knew the allusions about Zilu receiving an ox and Zigong redeeming his people, so he nodded and said, "It will only take about ten days. I have finished my work in Huizhou."
Just went back."
…
After bidding farewell to Du Yuru's family, Lu Zheng continued on his way. He soon left the mountain road, then asked all the way to Yangzhou Mansion.
After informing the town of Yisi and showing the way to the town's people, Lu Zheng set off on the road again, crossing Yangzhou and arriving at Huizhou.
…
Jinhua Sect is located on Jinhua Mountain in Jinhua County, Huizhou. It is also a major Taoist sect and specializes in true spiritual secrets.
However, unlike Baiyun Temple, which accepts people offering incense and offering prayers, Jinhua Sect only built Jinhua Temple in Huizhou Prefecture and Jinhua County. However, the Jinhua Sect's gate on the mountain does not entertain outsiders.
This does not accept outsiders. It does not mean that two people are stuck at the mountain gate and those who want to go up the mountain are blocked. It means that the mountain gate is directly built deep in Jinhua Mountain.
Lu Zheng started from the foot of the mountain and walked along the path for forty miles, bypassing five mountain tops, passing two cliff single-plank bridges and three streams, before he saw a house halfway up a mountain.
Shed palace.
The path on the ground gradually widened, the weeds around him gradually disappeared, and an archway appeared in front of Lu Zheng.
Jinhua School.
Looking around, Lu Zheng saw many Taoist priests. Some were meditating, some were discussing Taoism, of course some were drinking and playing chess, and some were exchanging skills.
Lu Zheng's appearance also attracted the attention of several Taoist priests near the mountain gate.
"Rong Song of the Jinhua sect, a poor Taoist, has met this young master!" A young Taoist priest came up to inspect his head, "I wonder why the young master is here?"
Although in theory, apart from hunters and herb collectors who would come here accidentally, few ordinary people who go into the mountains for fun can go so deep, but this is not absolute. After all, there are people like Xu Xiake who have good feet in the world.
The traveler.
"Lu Zheng, a layman from the outer sect of Baiyun Temple, has met fellow Taoist monks!" Lu Zheng also bowed his head and saluted, "This trip to the Jinhua Sect is specifically for worshiping the mountain."
"oh?"
Several Taoist priests looked over.
Lu Zheng remained motionless, but wisps of cloud energy automatically gathered around him.
"I've met Taoist friends!"
Several Taoist priests bowed their heads in unison and saluted.
"I've met several fellow Taoists!" Lu Zheng also returned the greetings one by one.
"Please, Fellow Daoist Lu." Taoist Master Rong Song stretched out his hand to signal Lu Zheng to come in, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Lu has anything important to do, or are you looking for someone?"
Jinhua Sect and Baiyunguan belong to the same Taoist sect. If there is really something to be notified, the person who comes should be a direct Taoist priest. Therefore, Rong Song guessed that Lu Zheng knew one of the disciples of Jinhua Sect and that he was visiting a friend.
"It's true." Lu Zheng nodded, then raised his hand to indicate the brocade box in his hand, "I accidentally obtained a copy of "Nine Heavens Golden Que Cave True Divine Transformation Technique". I learned from my teacher that it belongs to your sect, so I specially Come and return it."
"What?"
"Nine Heavens Golden Que Cave's True Divine Transformation Technique?"
"Who lost it?"
The status of "Nine Heavens Golden Que Cave Zhen Transformation Technique" in the Jinhua Sect is similar to the status of "The True Sutra of Xiantian Yun Qi Transformation Technique" in Baiyun Temple. Although it is not the supreme secret, it is also the core technique passed down directly.
So several Taoist priests were all surprised.

"Junior Brother Rong Jin, you go and inform Senior Uncle Kun Yuan first, and I will come with fellow Taoist Master Lu later." Taoist Master Rong Song immediately said to another Taoist priest.
"Yes!" Taoist priest Rong Jin replied, and then his feet were like wind, and he crossed several feet in a few steps and walked away.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please!" Taoist Master Rong Song said seriously.
Returning the skills is the right thing to do.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, please!"
Lu Zheng followed Rong Song all the way into the mountain gate of Jinhua Sect.
The stone paths are winding and winding, the houses and trees are scattered in an orderly manner, and the artificial buildings and natural creations are integrated together, making it quiet, elegant, harmonious and natural.
Walking there, you can feel the natural fresh air and the personal feeling of human settlement, which makes Lu Zheng feel very comfortable.
It is indeed a Taoist residence!
With Rong Song leading the way, no one would ask questions along the way. Many Taoist priests were very friendly and nodded and smiled at Lu Zheng.
Soon, the two of them turned a few corners and came to a rather old palace.
The gate of the temple was open, and Rong Jin was waiting inside with three older Taoist priests in the hall of the temple.
"Lu Zheng, a layman from the outer sect of Baiyun Temple, has met several uncles." Lu Zheng hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed his head.
"Master Nephew Lu, please get up!" The leader waved his hand and lifted up Lu Zheng, "I am a poor Daoist, Kun Yuan. I heard that Master Nephew Lu accidentally obtained the "Nine Heavens Golden Que Cave True Divine Transformation Technique" that I sent?"
"Exactly." Lu Zheng nodded and opened the brocade box in his hand. A wooden statue of a god painted in dark gold with bright gold fly-headed small letters written all over the body lay quietly on the brocade cloth in the box.
"really!"
"I see!"
"It's the statue that that villain stole!"
The three Taoist priests spoke out one after another, and it seemed that they all knew the origin of the wooden statue.
"It makes my nephew laugh. This wooden statue was originally a Dharma teaching object in the Sutra Pavilion in the back hall, but it was stolen out of the mountain gate by a disciple of Sasu and disappeared." Taoist Master Kunyuan shook his head and said, and then looked at Lu Zheng, "I wonder how my nephew got this statue?"
Then Lu Zheng honestly told what happened, and then described the appearance of the middle-aged man in Taoist robes.
"It is indeed Rong Cong." Taoist Master Kunyuan nodded.
"If you don't have good talent and bad intentions, even if you steal the "Shen Transformation Method" and practice it for more than ten years, you will still only have a few decades of Taoism." Another Taoist priest named Kun Ang shook his head and said.
Being able to be easily killed by Lu Zheng, of course it is impossible for Dao Xing to last more than a hundred years.
"Good kill!" The last Taoist priest of the Jinhua Sect said to Lu Zheng, which was both qualitative and comforting.
"Thank you so much, nephew, for this move not only eliminated a traitor for our Jinhua sect, but also helped us bring back the scriptures." Kun Yuan said, reaching out to lead him to the seat beside him, "Sister, please take a seat, Rong Qin, give it to Master Lu. My nephew serves tea."
"Thank you, Uncle Master." Lu Zheng nodded and thanked him. He first handed the brocade box to Taoist Master Kunyuan, and then took a seat aside.
"My nephew is an outsider of Baiyun Temple. I wonder who the respected master is?" Taoist Master Kun Ang asked.
"The master's name is Mingzhang." Lu Zheng said.
"It turns out to be Taoist Master Mingzhang." Taoist Master Kunyuan nodded and said, "We have met once before, so we hit it off right away."
Taoist Master Kun Ang asked, "Master Nephew Lu has advanced cultivation, but he is not a direct descendant. However, he still needs to take care of his family, so it is difficult for him to devote himself to Taoism?"
"Uncle Master Mingjian!" Lu Zheng said, giving a rough explanation, and at the same time he also mentioned his idea of finding some exercises for his family.
