Fanwai III (Congratulations to CloudMan for being promoted to the leader)
September of the 91st year of Longqing, Huangshan.
After seeing off Jiao Yuanjun, Zhao Ran, Xu Yun'ao and Chen Shandao sat and talked. As he got older, he seemed to like to recall the people and things in the past.
"My ancestor Yue ascended, followed by Master Tieguan, then Master Tao, and now Master Jiao Yuan, plus Master Feng who moved into the Chaos Immortal Realm, Master Yunyi and Master Chang Yu, the older generation have all left
I still remember that I was the one responsible for the ascension ceremony of Master Zhang Da in Wudang Mountain, and all the signatures on the main table were written by me. Now, these old seniors have either ascended or moved.
I witnessed each one with my own eyes and saw them off in person. Time flies so fast, and it slips through my fingers inadvertently."
Xu Yun'ao thought for a while and said: "Ten of them have left, but now there are many more great monks who join the Tao. This generation, especially your Zongsheng Hall, all of them are pillars of the Tao sect."
Today, there are eighteen Hedao monks in the Taoist sect, and Zongsheng Hall accounts for seven of them. In addition to Zongsheng Hall, there are Zhou Yunzhi in Guansheng Pavilion, Pan Ruizhu and Xu Yun'ao in Helin Pavilion, Chen Shandao in Sanmao Hall, and Pan Hengyue in Maoshan.
Wudang Mountain has Sun Biyun and Chisongzi, Longhu Mountain has Jiutianshi, Gezao Mountain has Duanmu Changzhen, Baiyun Pavilion has Wu Shouyang, and Yuhuang Pavilion has Dongfang Jing.
This generation of Taoist sects has directly caught up with the glory of Zhang Dazhen's generation of Hedao, and even surpassed it. Especially the Hedao of Zongshengguan, Wei Zhizhen, Zhao Ran, Zhou Yumo, Luo Zhiqing, Suchuan Yao, Feng Tang, in addition to
Yu Zhichuan and others are all world-famous masters, and they are truly unfathomable.
Chen Shandao sighed: "Now that there is no one left in the world, I feel like I have no love left in my life."
The three of them all laughed, and Zhao Ran said: "If Master Chen feels that this time is boring, just pay back the cause and effect and ascend as soon as possible."
Chen Shandao shook his head: "What kind of karma is there? I don't want to do this anymore. I will fight endlessly in this life and the killing is too heavy. It doesn't matter if I don't repay this karma. In a few years, I will be ready to enter the Chaos Immortal Realm. Those of us in San Mao Pavilion will go in."
The disciples of Xinqixia Mountain and Xinsanmao Pavilion have already built the Xinqixia Mountain and Xinsanmao Pavilion. Every year, they bring letters to tell me which sect has appeared around them. These juniors want me to go in early and help them clean up the surrounding sects.
Seize the territory."
Zhao Ran laughed and said, "Master Chen, please hurry in. With 650,000 acres of land, you guys from Sanmaoguan will probably be jealous of it."
Xu Yun'ao asked: "I heard that credibility will exceed 150 billion in August this year? It's really unbelievable when I think about it."
Zhao Ran said: "After all, there are 2.4 billion people in our world tomorrow, and Taoism is prosperous. Two hundred billion this year will not be a problem. Add in the investment from Buddhism, it is estimated to be 90 billion, which is 300 Lushan Mountains. Wait until next year
When the development is completed in the first month, the territory will be equal to the sum of southern Zhili, Zhejiang, Huguang, Jiangxi, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi. Our years of hard work can be considered a relatively big harvest."
Xu Yun'ao asked again: "How many monks are there in the Chaos Immortal Realm?"
Zhao Ran said: "There are more than 15,000 people, including 14,000 monks and 1,000 new generation people inside."
In Huangshan, we talked a lot about the Chaos Immortal Realm, especially how to use the Chaos Immortal Realm to compensate for the spiritual power of the Ming Dynasty and delay the decline of the Ming Dynasty world into the Dharma-ending World. Xu Yun'ao was so moved by the conversation that he couldn't help but almost agreed to Chen Shandao
At the invitation, we moved to the Chaos Fairyland together to save four to five billion credit points for the Ming Dynasty credit pool.
After the conversation, Zhao Ran rushed from Huangshan to Yingtian and met the outstanding representative of his disciples - Long Qing.
Emperor Longqing finally managed to keep the clouds clear and see the moonlight, and successfully entered the virtual world last year. After entering the virtual world, he flew to Zhao Ran and said that he had something important to discuss with the teacher.
Zhao Ran met Long Qing in the Ancestral Temple. His Majesty the Emperor specially chose this place because he wanted to tell Zhao Ran something.
"Teacher, I am very happy to be able to enter the void. It is too difficult to enter the void, and the amount of merit absorbed is too huge. It still makes disciples shudder when thinking about it."
Zhao Ran comforted: "How can it be so easy to enter the void? How many high-level practitioners in the world are there? I am very relieved that you can enter the void."
Long Qing lit a cigarette for the teacher, and also for himself. He blew out a thick Tai Chi smoke ring and looked through the smoke ring, looking a little tired.
"It's difficult, it's too difficult for me..." After complaining for a while, Long Qing expressed his real thoughts: "I have been reading recently and saw the rule of the three generations, and suddenly figured out a truth, maybe the Zen position is a This is a great merit, what do you think, teacher?"
Zhao Ran was stunned. At first, he felt that his disciple was obsessed with practicing magic, but after careful consideration, it seemed to make sense. He was also a little undecided: "Maybe it's feasible, but I don't have experience in this area as a teacher, so I can only It's up to you to realize it. Of course, once you reach the Zen position, you can't get it back. It's even harder to make merit. The Zen position is not a child's play, so you have to be careful."
Long Qing said: "This disciple is mentally prepared. If the Zen position cannot absorb great merits, then I can go to the Chaos Immortal Realm. I can live for nine hundred years. I am the emperor who has lived the longest in the past three generations. I am satisfied."
Zhao Ran didn't know what to say. He looked at Long Qing, who was thinking in circles, and was moved for a moment: "Maybe he can become the first ascended emperor after the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."
Long Qing grinned: "Thanks to the teacher's blessing! One last question, after passing the throne to his son, I haven't decided what year to choose, so I kindly ask the teacher to give it to me."
"...let's call it...Wanli."
Long Qing did what he said, regardless of the opposition of the court, and passed the throne to his eighty-year-old son in December of that year. The next year, the Yuan Dynasty was changed to Wanli, and Long Qing was honored as the Supreme Emperor. At the same time, Long Qing also made a rule that in the future When a descendant of the Zhu family ascends the throne, each term shall not last more than ninety-one years.
After abdicating, Zhao Ran asked Long Qing: "How do you feel?"
Long Qing laughed loudly: "The merit power is so full that I can't finish the refining in three years. I can't do it anymore, teacher, I have to do my homework. The merit power is so crowded in the sea of qi that my stomach hurts every time I smile. I can't do it anymore. I can't do it anymore." Haha...I don’t dare to smoke anymore, I quit smoking!”
After Zhao Ran returned to Dajun Mountain, he told Long Qing's story to his teacher and his wife. They laughed after hearing it. After laughing, Jiang Tenghe looked at Zhao Liniang, who nodded, so Jiang Tenghe said: "Zhiran, you and I The master’s wife has agreed to move to the Chaos Fairyland this year.”
Zhao Ran was stunned and asked: "Teacher, there is no problem with this life span. I still have ten years left, why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhao Liniang smiled and said: "We old couple have nothing to think about. Even if we merge in the future, we still have to resolve the cause and effect. I heard Nazhen said that if the cause and effect are eliminated, the memory of many things in the past will be blurred, and many feelings will disappear. Your teacher and I don’t want to be like this, we don’t want to forget the past and lose the love between our two cultivators, so we plan to go to the Chaos Immortal Realm to practice. Such practice in ten thousand years is a hundred, thousand, ten thousand times better than a hundred thousand years in heaven!”
Jiang Tenghe suddenly lowered his voice and added: "I secretly went to Chaos Fairyland to ask Nazhen last time. He said that until now, the name Zhongnan Mountain has not been registered. If you want to take action, you must do it as soon as possible. If it is later, it will be too late!"
Zhao Liniang rolled her eyes: "I've been tinkering with the names of your Lou Guan all day long, so I can't think of a few by myself."
