Chapter 31 Looking up at the Starry Sky (Zhao Zhiran's Birthday Part 4)
The news of Zhao Ran's return to the mountain spread like wildfire and immediately spread throughout Dajun Mountain. Everyone in the Zongsheng Hall came to visit him in the courtyard, and it was really blocked.
Ever since the name was changed to Qiuran Juhou after getting married, Zhao Zhiran's real home has never been so lively. I recall the scene when the Maharaja Cave was just built, there were three or two big cats and kittens, and there was nothing except monsters.
, Zhao Ran couldn't help but feel a lot better.
After twelve years of development in Dajunshan, the Zongsheng Hall has really gained momentum.
As usual, there was a lively reward ceremony. Forty-eight third-generation disciples in Lou Guan and sixteen third-generation disciples in the Wenqing Sect each lined up in queues, waiting for rewards from their junior uncle.
Amidst the clamor of "Thank you, uncle", everyone got something and everyone was happy. The storage ring of the little uncle is like a treasure box that will never be exhausted. No matter who comes forward, he can always get a gift, and this
This gift is quite satisfactory. In addition to the gift, there is also a stack of small banknotes, fifty taels per person, no exception.
After coaxing the younger disciples away, Qu Feng and Pidianpidian ran over and said that they wanted to return the general affairs of Dajun Mountain to the junior uncle. Zhao Ran kicked him in the butt and kicked him out. Qu Feng and Pian Pidian ran over.
Patting his butt, he ran back and asked, "Uncle Junior, are you really begging for your bones and returning to your hometown?"
Zhao Ran sighed: "After twenty years of hard work, it's time to take a rest." Suddenly he thought again: "Where is Tang Dynasty?"
Qu Fenghe said: "Junior Brother Feng is not in the pavilion. I have already flown a talisman to inform him and Fengshan that I will be back tonight. After Junior Brother Feng entered the Golden Pill, he often killed demons outside the mountain...
"
Zhao Ran smiled: "Speak carefully, where are there so many demons? If you really want to talk about demons, I have the most demons in Dajun Mountain. Okay, you can go down and do what you need to do. In addition, I am also thinking about it, you are already in the golden elixir realm
Now, you are the third generation disciple of Lou Guan again. It is not a problem to go down the mountain and become the abbot of Baimayuan. After all, you are not cultivating merit. So many years of experience in the mortal world are enough for Taoist heart. It is best to go back to the mountain to study.
, strive to cultivate the water stone elixir method as soon as possible."
Qu Fenghe said: "Of course that's good. Thank you, junior uncle, for considering it for me. Then who do you think the position of abbot of White Horse Court will be given to?"
Zhao Ran said: "Leave it to whomever you want. It's not like you can't make the decision on these things - I heard that you have made the decision too. You can see for yourself, if anyone in the White Horse Courtyard has reached the point of cultivation, you can recommend him to Tianhe
palace."
Qu Fenghe wanted to say something else, but when he saw Zhao Ran raising his feet again, he ran away quickly.
Zhao Ran smiled and shook his head. Qu Fenghe was very smart and very good at observing people's emotions. He probably saw some signs and thought of ways to amuse himself.
But he really doesn't want to take care of things now. After more than twenty years of hard work, his mental state is always tense, and he really wants to take a rest at this moment. Besides, he really is not in the mood to think about those trivial things now.
After Qu Fenghe left, Zhao Ran went to the back mountain observatory. The teacher was accompanying Zhao Liniang in the palace under the observatory, not on the high platform. In the past, Zhao Ran could see the high platform every time he came to Louguan Small World.
The figure above, with its neck raised to gaze at the stars, could not be seen at the moment, and suddenly seemed a little empty.
Looking back, it seems that I haven't climbed the steps for seven or eight years. I still remember the previous time. It was after Wei Zhizhen tried the fourth sword refiner. At that time, Zhao Ran was in the fourth year of Jindan. When he climbed the steps, he walked 301 steps. Now he is a great refiner.
Teacher, I don’t know how many steps we need to take?
Zhao Ran began to climb the steps, and the past was like smoke. Scenes appeared in front of him. Starting from the resolution of the True Master Hall yesterday, he kept tracing back. Luosha Island, bridge building, shipbuilding, joint meetings, Patriarch Long Yang and Bai He, led
Fighting the rebellion, teaching hall, abbot of Xuantan Palace, fighting against floods, testing the swords of the four masters, Baimayuan, Xingqing, Zhang Daren's ascension, siege of Xuanci, discussions in Yuanfu Palace...
The scene suddenly stopped, and Zhao Ran suddenly woke up from his memories. When he looked again, he had already climbed onto the observatory, dripping with sweat.
Level six hundred and ninety-six!
He habitually looked up at the stars like his teacher. At this moment, he suddenly saw a scene he had never seen before.
The stars in the sky seemed to be divided into layers, one by one, going deeper and deeper into the sky, no one knew how many layers there were. The vagueness and huge attraction made Zhao Ran extremely eager to see the reality of the starry sky.
Just looking up for an unknown amount of time, Jiang Tenghe appeared next to him.
"See?"
"Disciple saw it. I used to wonder why the teacher always looked up, but now I understand. Today, it is really worth looking up at. I don't feel tired of looking up for as long as I want."
"How much weight do you see?"
"Seems endless...Where's the teacher?"
"Same as you."
"teacher?"
"My teacher once said that maybe one day in the future, you will surpass my teacher. There is no need to avoid this. Whether you or Zhi Zhen, Zhi Qing or Zhi Chuan, no matter who is better than my teacher in the future, my teacher will
Rejoice. My master has already surpassed your master. If you can surpass my master, then our lineage of Lou Guan can truly prosper."
Zhao Ran didn't know what to say, so he could only say: "Teacher...you have to work hard..."
Jiang Tenghe smiled freely: "Of course I will work hard as a teacher, and you should work hard too. As a teacher, I feel proud to be able to accept you as my disciple."
The master and the apprentice looked up at the sky together and stared at the stars. After a while, Zhao Ran asked: "It is said in "The Order of the Succession of Taoist Sutras and Dharma" that heaven is divided into three realms. Above the three realms, there are four human heavens. Above them, there are three pure heavens, and finally there are three pure heavens.
Photographed by Da Luotian, there are thirty-six days in total. But when I looked at the stars today, they seemed to be endless, weighing thousands or tens of thousands."
Jiang Tenghe said: "The thirty-six heavens are not covered in layers, but are like Tai Chi rotating upwards. The layers meet and overlap with each other. Therefore, they are countless. Some sages said that there are 550,555,000.
Fifteen trillion, 55,555,555 weights, but how to count this number? It’s just an approximate number, no one knows the specific number.”
Zhao Ran asked: "Teacher, can you see the meaning of Tai Chi rotation?"
"certainly."
"Then the teacher's cultivation is still much higher than that of his disciples."
"Your Yang Shen has only been born for two months, and you have been a teacher for ten years. How can you compare? But don't be discouraged. In a few years, you may be able to surpass your teacher."
Zhao Ran asked again: "Teacher, if I draw a door in the sky with Wu Zhenbi, do you think I can pass through it?"
Jiang Tenghe smiled and said: "You will go to the outside of the mountain."
"Can't you do that to Patriarch Long Yang?"
"The world in the building is not the real world, it is just a reflection of the world. The starry sky in the real world outside is also different from the sky we want to fly to. It is also included in our world and is not the sky that my monks call it. What is the sky outside the sky?
?That's another world, and there's...um..."
"barrier?"
"Yes, what we monks have to do is to go to the other side of the barrier."
ps: Zhao Zhiran’s star value exceeds 80,000. Thanks to fellow Taoist friends from the starting point, it will be updated again as agreed.
