Kongming Lao Dao's brows twisted into the character "Sichuan".
This means that if his teacher successfully passes on the art of weapon refining to Xiao Ping An, Ping An will be his teacher's registered disciple, and he will be of the same generation as him, and Ping An will become his father's uncle?
Isn't this what Dazhi said as a joke - super senior?
Kong Ming Lao Dao's Taoist heart was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry at this moment.
Yun Zhongzi pointed his finger forward, and several bamboo leaves pulled out bamboo silk from mid-air and woven it into a small seat. The back seat grew longer when facing the wind.
When the seat lands on the ground, it has reduced to normal size.
Yun Zhongzi sat forward, gently shook the hem of his Taoist robe, and asked with a smile:
"What? Your sect has so many disciples, why are you still reluctant to part with them?"
"I'm willing to give it up! I'm willing to give it up!"
Master Kong Ming bowed forward, put his hands in his sleeves, held the disciple ceremony, and whispered:
"But, teacher, if you want to accept a disciple, why don't you choose Da Zhi?
"The great ambitions are extremely lucky, the five elements are well-rounded, and the qualifications are outstanding. Their qualifications have surpassed those of the first generation of human beings in ancient times. They are simply the blessings of this world for the human race."
Yun Zhongzi shook his head with a smile and said slowly: "I've seen this Li Dazhi before... Kong Ming, do you know what luck is?"
The old Taoist Kong Ming thought about one or two things, and then answered after careful consideration:
"The so-called luck is a mysterious word. It was only in ancient times that there was a theory of luck.
"Those with good luck have no taboos in their practice. They usually have profound blessings and all their wishes come true. They rarely encounter bottlenecks in their practice and can encounter various opportunities. They are so-called people who are destined by destiny.
“Those who lack good luck are prone to making mistakes when doing things. No matter how cautious they are, they will still get twice the result with half the effort, and in the end they may even achieve nothing.
"Nowadays, when the Dongzhou Immortal Sect accepts disciples, they look at luck first and then their qualifications."
"good."
Yun Zhongzi sighed softly and said slowly:
"There are many hidden things behind the so-called luck.
"Before the middle period of ancient times, there was no theory of luck between heaven and earth. After hundreds of tribes in ancient times established the Heavenly Court, there were more and more rules formed between heaven and earth.
"This is the so-called way of heaven.
"At first, the saying of Heavenly Dao came from the mouth of the ancient demon emperor Jun, who used the name of Heavenly Dao to rule hundreds of tribes; but gradually, we, who have been observing the creatures of heaven and earth since ancient times, suddenly discovered that Heavenly Dao seems to be certain
It exists, but it cannot be expressed or touched.
"After the ancient heaven was overthrown by the human race, the idea of the way of heaven gradually faded away, and only then did the idea of the way of heaven be hidden and invisible.
"The detectable destiny of living beings is the best evidence of the existence of heaven."
"The way of heaven?"
Old Taoist Kong Ming frowned and said:
"Disciples have also heard similar sayings. The way of heaven is the will of heaven and earth and the resonance of all avenues. All things and the rules of heaven and earth are woven into the so-called way of heaven."
"good."
Yun Zhongzi nodded slowly and said with a smile:
"So, the level of a living being's luck is just Heaven's assessment of this living being. What does it have to do with the Great Dao?
"Li Dazhi carries great luck, which just shows that he has received the care and protection of heaven.
"Kong Ming, don't understand wrong, the way of heaven has no spirituality, but it runs through the years and spans the universe.
"The so-called people with great luck will have a great influence on the world in the future. In order to maintain the stability of the great avenues today, tomorrow, and yesterday, Heaven will protect these people with great luck. When the person with great luck completes the tasks given by Heaven,
mission, his great luck will naturally dissipate.
"This is the principle of the movement of heaven."
The old Taoist Kong Ming was a little more shocked.
He looked at the teacher he had not seen for tens of thousands of years and couldn't help but sigh: "Teacher, have you reached the realm of Daluo Golden Immortal now?"
Yun Zhongzi smiled but did not answer: "I just traveled in the sea of chaos for a long time and observed the world carefully. There are many wonderful places here. Don't tell me anything, for fear of disturbing your practice, hahahaha
."
Kong Ming sighed: "Teacher, I sincerely ask you to teach me for a while longer!"
"What else can I teach you?"
Yun Zhongzi sighed:
"The Great Dao in this world, this is your master of cultivation. Back then I just taught you a set of formulas and a piece of scripture.
"Okay, Kong Ming, let's talk about Li Ping'an first."
Kong Ming smiled and said, "Junior Brother Ping'an is lucky to be valued by you, teacher."
"You don't have to say it like that."
Yun Zhongzi pondered for a few times, with a bit of hesitation in his brows, and said slowly:
"Now that the man of great luck has appeared in this world, his fate is probably not far away. I didn't want to get involved with the man of great luck, but when I saw this Li Ping'an, I was really happy.
“His understanding is quite astonishing, and he has all kinds of strange thoughts.
"Do you know what I saw in his secret room? Hahahaha!"
Yun Zhongzi couldn't help laughing and continued:
"I actually saw the memorial tablets dedicated to three teachers. In front of the tablets was a wooden man driven by a waterwheel, beating wooden fish constantly.
"There is a wooden arm made of dozens of gears on the side. Every once in a while, an incense stick is lit and then inserted into the incense burner next to the wooden fish.
"Ha ha ha ha!
"He doesn't even show up, but he can burn dozens of sticks of incense every day!"
Kong Ming Lao Dao's forehead was covered with black lines.
Automatically add incense to the Taoist memorial tablet?
"Hmm!"
Yun Zhongzi said seriously:
"Just teach this Li Dazhi well. He will bring many opportunities to you, the Wanyun Sect, in the future. However, there are dangers beside opportunities. You must not be careless.
"This Li Pingan, I do intend to accept him as a registered disciple.
"I don't know if he is willing to..."
Master Kong Ming said hurriedly: "Disciple, let's go talk to Ping An now!"
"Hey!" Yun Zhongzi said with a smile, "How can he refuse if you go like this? He is also a thoughtful person and will definitely not disobey you."
Kong Ming Lao Taoist asked: "Teacher, what do you mean?"
"Aren't you the founder here?"
Yun Zhongzi said seriously:
"Why don't you come and arrange a trial for him? I want to take another look before he preaches.
"The leader of our sect has given many orders to the disciples of Yuxu Palace. When accepting disciples, the first priority is family background, and the second priority is character and aptitude.
"I still need to look at Ping An's character, to see if he has righteousness, if he is tough enough, and if he has compassion.
"Furthermore, what I taught him was just the art of refining weapons. I did not want to teach him the path to immortality. There is no need to let him know that it was me who taught him."
The old Taoist Kong Ming pondered for a few times, and he already had a clue in his heart.
He said: "Teacher, this disciple is going to arrange a trial for Li Ping'an. If his character is not strong enough to receive the grace of the teacher's preaching, it means he is not so blessed. What do you think?"
"good."
Yun Zhongzi nodded slowly:
"In that case, I will wait here, old Taoist. I won't hinder your practice, right?"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter," Kong Ming was overjoyed, "If you can practice in this small temple for thousands of years and give your disciples the opportunity to be filial to you, that would be my disciple's blessing!"
Yun Zhongzi frowned and said, "How can you be so flattering with your mouth?"
"this……"
Kong Ming, the old Taoist, could only laugh.
Yes, he is used to being flattered by Li Dazhi.
…
At the same time, in the cave at Weiming Peak.
Li Dazhi burped, and seeing Li Ping'an clearing away the dishes quickly, he couldn't help but laugh:
"I didn't see you being so diligent when I was at home before. It's different now that I have a master."
"I've always taken care of it."
Li Ping'an put all the bowls and chopsticks into the furnace to melt them, cleaned the copper pot with magic, picked up a black gourd, and sucked all the dirty water and sewage into the gourd.
The entire cave was once again tidy.
Suddenly, a call from the elder of the outer sect came from outside the cave door: "Uncle Dazhi! The master wants you to go back and receive the guests of the Wei Yuan Sect!"
"Come here!"
Li Dazhi sighed, stood up unsteadily, and sighed:
"I think the head brother must have become impatient with Senior Xu. I'll go over and deal with it."
Li Ping'an asked: "Dad, is there something wrong with Wei Yuanzong? Why don't we go there to open a branch?"
"It's not a problem."
Li Dazhi laughed sarcastically:
"It's just a business matter. To put it simply, I want to make a contract with them, so that in the future, Wei Yuanzong will turn his back and disown each other, and the brothers will have to settle accounts openly. Let's talk about all these clearly, and then talk about the partnership to earn spiritual stones.
It’s not too late either.”
"Is it because Wei Yuanzong doesn't want to make a contract?"
"Ah, I haven't mentioned it to them yet," Li Dazhi shook his head, "Why are you so anxious? It's only been a while since we are stable now."
Li Ping'an smiled and said: "Dad, if there are no problems with Wei Yuanzong and they are willing to sign the contract, why not let this happen as soon as possible!"
"Even if we start preparations now, it will take one or two years at the earliest."
Li Dazhi smiled and said:
"You have already opened your mouth, so I will naturally take this matter seriously.
"Do they have a female disciple who looks like a fairy? This is your first time speaking for someone like this."
Li Ping'an said helplessly: "I just can't bear to see Senior Xu Sheng still running around at such an old age."
"Okay, I'll mention this to the headmaster. You can practice in peace."
Li Dazhi waved his hand and flew towards the cave door that opened on its own.
Li Ping'an shouted worriedly: "Dad! Never mention the stone slab to anyone!"
"knew!"
Li Ping'an watched his old father leave in the clouds, and stood in the front hall of the cave for a while, lost in thought, until he heard a light voice behind him.
"Apprentice, come here to practice."
"Here comes Master!"
Li Ping'an rushed to the lecture hall, where Qing Su, who had changed into a loose long skirt, was already waiting here and began to explain to him the art of controlling clouds that he had not finished last time.
Two days later, senior Xu Sheng left with a smile, while Mu Ningning brought good news from the East China Sea.
Elder Yan Sheng successfully defeated the Immortal!
Since then, Wan Yun Sect has lost one outer elder and gained one inner elder.
"Brother!"
Mu Ningning’s big eyes were shining:
"Now every mountain peak in the gate is talking about watching the mountains and discussing the Tao!
"We, the ten true immortals on Caiyun Peak who have not long left to live, would like to invite you to come over there and discuss the Tao!
"Some people say that, senior brother, you are the reincarnation of an Enlightenment Stone in the East China Sea, and you are the scraps left over from the empress Nuwa's patching up of the sky!"
"cough!"
Li Ping'an, who was drinking tea, choked and spit out the tea, frowning and staring at Mu Ningning.
East China Sea, scraps for patching up the sky... That's either a stone monkey or a piece of rotten jade. He can't listen to this!
"Don't talk nonsense."
Li Pingan said helplessly:
"I knew it would be like this. I thought it would take Senior Yan Sheng ten or eight years to realize...
"Next, I will be in seclusion honestly. Whenever I step out of this cave door, even if my Taoist heart is not strong."
Mu Ningning blinked, looked to the side, and asked in a low voice: "Then I will come over and you will be in seclusion for ten or eight years. Anyway, I have already reached the Void Realm."
"Don't you come here often now?"
Li Pingan's voice became much gentler.
He looked at Mu Ningning's delicate and pretty face and stretched out his right hand.
When Mu Ningning was a little nervous, a pink hairpin magically appeared in Li Pingan's palm.
Mu Ningning held her breath, feeling her Taoist heart rippling slightly, and whispered:
"Thank you, senior brother."
"This is a magic weapon."
Li Pingan said seriously:
"Seeing as you don't like to use the Hidden Dust Technique, this hairpin can prevent others from spying on your soul. You can wear it when you go out."
"okay."
Mu Ningning's eyelashes fell slightly, she lowered her head and inserted the hairpin in her hair, and took a mirror to look at it carefully.
The woman in the mirror has changed a lot from when she first went up the mountain.
Mu Ningning's heart was filled with the late night whispers of several fellow Taoist sisters, and she couldn't help biting her lower lip.
She thought of Li Ping'an's discussion of Taoism in Guanhai Tower again, thought of the three senior sisters of Wei Yuanzong, and thought of Master's reminder...
Indecisiveness leads to disaster!
'Mu Ningning, Mu Ningning, you are a swordsman, how can you be so indecisive?'
She secretly took a breath, couldn't help but raise her chest and raise her head, slightly pursed her lips a few times, and suddenly raised her head to look behind Li Ping'an.
"Uncle? Why are you here?"
Li Ping'an turned his head subconsciously, only to see nothing behind him.
There was a slight fragrance next to her, but Mu Ningning stood up from the recliner and suddenly bowed.
Li Ping'an forcibly suppressed his body reaction of 'thunder counterattack' and turned back, only to see Mu Ningning holding a paper package in both hands, lowering his head and bending over, as if toasting, handed the paper package over.
There are two pictures of mandarin ducks sketched in light strokes on the paper package.
There was silence in the cave for a moment.
Qingsu, who was meditating next to the hot spring, couldn't help but tilt his head and look outside.
Li Ping'an wondered: "What is this?"
Mu Ningning hesitated and did not dare to look at Li Ping'an. He just said: "Yes, I made the snacks! Please accept it, senior brother!"
Li Ping'an asked: "Do you have any explanation?"
Mu Ningning closed her eyes tightly: "I don't have any explanation! I just made it myself and gave it to my senior brother to taste!"
Suddenly I heard Master Qingsu’s voice coming from the side:
"Is it a concentric cake? I ate it when I was a child. It takes a day or two to polish all kinds of spiritual objects into concentric patterns. Most of them are things that Caiyun Peak disciples will prepare before moving away.
"There is also a rare spiritual herb called 'knowing grass' inside the Tongxin cake. It is said that if you eat it, you can know the thoughts of the people around you."
Tongxinsu? Zhixincao?
When non-celestial disciples move out of Caiyun Peak, it usually means getting married... Is this a snack made before getting married?
Li Ping'an immediately understood something, and was about to reach out to take the snack with extraordinary meaning, but Mu Ningning had already lost her Taoist heart.
"Hey!"
She turned around and ran away. She handed the paper bag to Li Ping'an, then covered her face with her hands, and a cloud of smoke appeared under her feet.
"Hey! Pastor sister!"
"I went back to practice! Master, why did you say it out loud! This is so embarrassing!"
Mu Ningning had already escaped from the cave and rushed towards Caiyun Peak at the fastest speed in his life.
Li Ping'an squinted and smiled, carefully sealing the object as a tool for teasing her in the future.
I didn’t expect that Caiyunfeng’s sisters have so many weird ‘tricks’.
Li Ping'an was in a good mood. He hummed a tune he heard from somewhere, used Smoke Escape to sneak into the passage behind the desk, and rushed to his underground room.
After a moment, Li Ping'an frowned tightly.
He looked at a stone table filled with various tools and parts. The hundreds of bits and pieces on the table were now neatly placed in categories.
Master cleaned it up?
Master, when had she tidied her room? In the past two years, except for Master's personal clothes, he had tidied every part of Master's room.
Li Pingan asked in a voice: "Master, has anyone been here before?"
Qingsu replied: "No."
"Have you helped this disciple pack his things?"
Qingsu thought Li Ping'an was asking about the decorations in his bedroom, so she said, "Well, I'll help you clean them up."
Li Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Disciple knows, you can continue to practice."
On the other side, Patriarch Kongming quietly appeared in the corner room of Zhuyun Hall's main hall and sent a message asking Li Dazhi to come over and talk.
The founder of Wanyun Sect is now in real trouble.
