Since Zhenren Sun was the guarantor, Zhao Ran believed that the Yang family of Taifu Mountain should be the family of the legendary master craftsman, so he immediately nodded and promised to reward Zhenren Sun with generous property, and asked Zhenren Sun to invite him on his behalf.
Sun Zhenren immediately repaired a letter, took out the flying talisman and typed it out. With Sun Zhenren coming forward, I believe that the Yang family, as a family of casual cultivators, will send capable people to Songfan. Now, Zhao Ran was completely relieved.
Zhao Ran still couldn't get involved in the rest of the matter, so he planned to go to Lingyao Villa and recruit a bunch of free laborers to come down to work.
As he turned around, he heard Sun Zhenren say: "By the way, I'm afraid Zhi Ran doesn't know, right? My Wudang senior brother Chen failed to retreat."
"Master Chen's seclusion failed?" Zhao Ran didn't understand what Master Sun meant for a while.
Sun Zhenren cast his gaze to the sky and sighed deeply: "Breaking the void and entering the realm of unity is the lifelong dream of many monks, but how many monks have fallen on this road."
Zhao Ran understood now that "falling on the road" meant that he had passed away, and he was stunned and speechless.
Chen Zhenren is an elder of the Taihe Palace in Wudang Mountain. He and Sun Zhenren are both disciples of Zhang Laodao. He entered the Void Refining Realm earlier than Sun Zhenren and has a higher status than him.
As the master of the Sanqing Pavilion, he once presided over the Battle of Baima Mountain and was Xu Zhenren's best friend. Last year, when Xu Zhenren was helping Lou Guan fight for the Dajun Cave Heaven, he lamented that if Chen Zhenren had not retreated, the situation would have been much calmer.
Chen Zhenren went into seclusion three years ago to enter the realm of harmony. He did not even participate in Zhang Laodao's ascension ceremony. Who would have thought that he could not come out of this retreat...
"Zhenren Chen...just left...Zhenzhen Sun, do you need to go back to deal with the funeral affairs?"
Sun Zhenren continued to walk forward without any delay, saying as he walked: "Senior brother left seven days ago. Before leaving, he summoned us to meet. He said that the life and death of all things are the laws of nature, and there is nothing to be sad about. Therefore,
All posthumous matters will be avoided, no big feasts will be held, the Taoist sect will not be disturbed, friends will not be disturbed, and the master sect will not be hindered..."
Zhao Ran followed silently, and did not stop until Zhenren Sun entered Junshan Temple.
According to Chen Zhenren's will, the obituary notice of his death was not released until seven days later. That is, today, the Wudang Mountain Yinxian Sect notified the Zongguan Zhenshi Hall of the news, and also reported Chen Zhenren's last wish.
Zhao Ran quickly received flying talisman notifications from all parties.
Teacher Jiang Tenghe said that he asked his eldest disciple Wei Zhizhen to lead the rest of his disciples back to Maharaja Mountain first. He wanted to accompany Xu Zhenren to Wudang to worship. Therefore, his own return date will continue to be postponed.
Dongfang Li sent a letter saying that he had received retribution today. Chen Zhenren had passed away. According to his wishes, Zhenshi Hall would not hold a fasting ceremony. The Great Heavenly Master Zhang Yunyi and Wuyang Zhongtian Master went to Wudang to worship on behalf of all the Zhenshi Masters. Due to the incident involving the Sanqing Pavilion
, so I informed the envoys of the Sanqing Pavilion and heard about it.
Zhu Meng, Pei Zhongze and others all sent Feifu to ask Zhao Ran if he knew the details. Then they received Feifu from friends such as Dongfang Jing, Rong Niang, Butcher, Rich Man Shen, etc. They were all discussing the matter with each other.
In the increasingly quiet years of Taoism, the death of a great monk who was at the pinnacle of the Void Refining Realm and was about to enter the Hedao Realm is indeed a major event that shocked the world. The huge impact it brought to the cultivation world was no less than seven days ago last year.
The Moon Micromanifests the Ascension of the Great Realm.
Master Chen has just lived to be one hundred and thirty-seven years old. According to the normal life span, he can live at least one hundred and sixty years old. Some advanced practitioners in the Void Refining Realm can even live up to two hundred years old as long as they take good care of themselves!
The meaning revealed in it is especially difficult for high-level monks to accept - it is not a battle of skills, not an accident. It turns out that even those who have reached such a state will also pass away in practice. The road to practice is really long and the road is terrifying!
As a low-level young monk, Zhao Ran doesn't have much emotion yet. It will be another month before he turns thirty, one hundred or something, which is not a consideration for him. Therefore, he
He was just stunned for a moment, and then the shock in his heart was dispelled. As for sadness, in fact, he had no sadness at all. He had never even met Chen Zhenren.
Arriving at the Spirit Demon Villa, Zhao Ran asked the Toad Palace Fairy to gather all the spirit demons together and announce his recruitment plan.
"You have settled down in the Maharaja Mountain Cave Heaven, and Pindao has fulfilled his promise at that time. Now your cave has been built, and you have enjoyed a beautiful and happy life of practice. So, next, shouldn't you make some contribution?
?”
Fairy Toad Palace rolled her eyes and said: "Just tell us, what do you want us to do? By the way, little Taoist priest, where is the mountain you promised me? I have to hurry up and open a medicine garden!"
Zhao Ran scratched his head: "Well, didn't I give it to you?"
Fairy Toad Palace said angrily: "If I don't mention it, will you forget it?"
"Okay, okay, fairies, don't make trouble. Do you have someone you like?" Zhao Ran asked, and after asking, he quickly added: "First of all, let's talk about it, the inner mountain is not allowed, it is the important place of our sect, and we will also arrange a big one in the future.
It’s not convenient for you to get in and out.”
"I know the rules. If you don't enter the inner mountain, I want the steamed bun mountain by the lake!"
The so-called "Steamed Bun Mountain" is a hill mentioned by the Fairy Toad Palace and Zhao Ran on New Year's Eve. It looks like a standing meat bun (called Rou Baozi in the south), so it is called Steamed Bun Mountain by the spirit monsters.
The radius of this mountain is slightly larger than that of Xiaojun Mountain in Guyang County. Because it is close to the inner mountain—actually the top of the outermost mountain in the back mountain—the aura is several times richer than the Xiaojun Mountain that Zhao Ran transformed.
Zhao Ran immediately agreed to Fairy Toad Palace's request, and agreed to wait for the medicine garden to be opened, and then go up and set up the formation to prevent Huangshan Jun, Huangjiao Daxian, Hei Baizi, Fei Longzi and other reckless spirit monsters from entering and destroying it.
"Hey, Fairy, your interruption almost delayed the business. Following on from what I just said, since you have entered Junshan, you are friends of Junshan, and you should contribute to our Lou Guanshi Sect. I am walking for the Zongsheng Hall Taoist Gate, and is responsible for the entire
Regarding the affairs of the spiritual practice community in the Songfan area, according to everyone’s previous wishes, I will temporarily assign responsibilities today and ask you to take your own responsibilities, okay?”
Zhao Ran wanted to use this group of free labor, and the laborers were already mentally prepared.
It's just that all the spirit demons were under Zhao Ran's command and had sold a lot of coolies in the past few years. However, when they heard the word "job" for the first time, they all showed strong interest and surrounded Zhao Ran, getting tighter and tighter.
.
"Zhao Xingxing, as promised, I will guard the mountain gate for you!" Huangshan Jun raised his arms and shouted.
"I want to plant a bamboo forest in Maharaja Mountain!" the black and white Taoist said with a wink.
"You've already planted two pieces..." Fei Longzi teased him.
"It's just five or six acres of land, which is far from enough! As promised, I will plant a bamboo forest all over the Maharaja Cave!" Black and White Taoist said angrily.
"Zhao Xingxing, Lao Niu, can I go plow the fields for you? Lao Niu, I know how to do this..." This is Qingtian layman.
