The land of China is full of spiritual treasure mountains.
After many practitioners signed land lease contracts from the government, they began a semi-secluded practice life in the mountains.
Some ancient traditions also recovered from the dust and gradually returned to the earth.
There are famous mountains and nameless mountains, and many practitioners stand in one place, cultivating their moral integrity.
There is a large mountain with steep rocks, a narrow ladder leading directly to the top of the mountain, and a small Taoist temple with curls of green smoke rising up.
The Taoist temple is not big. It houses three Taoist saints inside and three or two Taoist boys outside.
A thin, gray-haired old Taoist raised his fly whisk, and with a snap of his fingers handed out a jade magical weapon for self-defense. He watched calmly as the young-looking Taoist boy handed him down the mountain.
"Disciple, there are many dangers when going down the mountain this time. You need to be careful. The evil cultivator's magic power is not weak. Just watch and act."
"Yes, master, I understand."
The sun has risen high, and the time for collecting energy has passed. The sun no longer reveals its purple meaning, and becomes a little hot and irritable.
The conversation between master and disciple has also ended.
The grass and sun trees on both sides of the road are thriving, turning the violent sunlight into gentle vitality.
The Taoist boy with a childish face has his hair tied up, and the tolerant practice clothes he used to wear have become the same fashion as those in the world under the mountain.
He was light and strong, leaping up on the narrow mountain path, taking three or five steps in one step, and falling three thousand feet in one step.
What's the point of going here?
Eliminate demons and defend the Way.
On the mountain, there is the aura of fairy clouds, while below the mountain, there is billowing red dust.
Tao Tong is not young, he is about to graduate from high school, and he will become an adult this year.
He held the law seals in his hands, and his inner breath circulated in his meridians, making him as light as a swallow as he trotted all the way down the mountain.
The hundred-mile journey up and down the mountain was an almost impossible journey for him as a child.
For him now, it is just a short journey.
When ancient legends come to reality and practice is no longer a myth, then those ancient and forgotten existences gradually surface.
They have a contract with the government, and when using their land rights, they also have to fulfill related obligations, such as removing things that shouldn't be there.
For today's society, spiritual practice is not a myth, but there is no real concept of the extent of those masters and saints.
The existence of Jianmu and the existence of another world are unknown to the public, and even those things that should not exist are unknown.
In the eyes of many people, an innate master is almost the same as in martial arts novels: he can lift a thousand pounds and be as light as a swallow.
But in fact, it is far more than that. Among the innate masters, the small ones can be said to be as light as a swallow, but the big ones can fly across the void, fly swords to defeat demons, and have invincible single-body combat capabilities. They are the pinnacle of any era on earth.
As a Taoist boy who was lucky enough to break through that threshold, he was very lucky and worthy of pride. After all, he would have the opportunity to reach that point in the future.
And his first mission down the mountain, which was a successful practice, was probably not easy.
——————
In the village at the foot of the mountain, someone was getting married, no, getting married.
Tao Tong first looked at it from a distance. The fiery red wedding dress was accompanied by a black and white suit and shirt. The golden boy and the beautiful girl looked like a husband and wife.
Then, he leaned over and the master said that the target of that evil cultivator was Chi.
He didn't quite understand what red was.
In recent years, although he has been practicing and studying at the same time, compared to other people of his age, he has less social interaction and more sincerity.
After all, in today's society, driving is not about driving but driving, and idioms are not idioms but idioms. Chinese culture is broad and profound, and often a casual understanding of it makes people sigh that they are no longer pure.
If you practice cultivation, you will often be unable to cultivate anything if your mind is too complicated.
Here, many villagers are gathered around, standing on the field ridges on both sides of the road, often holding handfuls of melon seeds, peanuts, and some festive candies in their hands.
"Come on, which family are you from?"
The Taoist boy came closer and stood on the ridge of the field. Because he was wearing a red and white brimmed hat, his long hair could not be seen. He looked more like a teenager who looked and smelled very clean.
Xipo, who was handing out melon seeds, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into the Taoist boy's hand. Then, she belatedly asked which family you were from.
"I was passing by." Daotong answered honestly. There was no need to lie.
"Oh, Old Man Li is getting married in his house today. He is very happy. Come and eat some sweets." Xi Po grabbed another handful of candies and gave them to the Taoist boy.
The Taoist boy was startled for a moment and said thank you twice.
It's a great first impression of the newlyweds.
He looked at today's two protagonists, Chi? If we look at the color, is Chi the bride?
The master said, do it according to your heart, but don't do it according to your nature.
Then, don’t leave yet, stay and take a look?
The Taoist boy put the candies in one pocket and the melon seeds in the other pocket. Then he squatted on the field ridge next to him with a smile, cracking melon seeds, and watched the bride and groom come to the church to get married.
"hey-hey……"
A rather silly laugh came. Tao Tong took a look in surprise and found that none of the villagers had any strange feelings and didn't care about him.
The man was wearing black trousers and a green long-sleeved cotton top. His hair was in small locks and he didn't look very clean. His trousers went down to his calves and he had a pair of dirty cotton shoes on his feet.
The combination of his outfit seemed unreasonable, and with his silly smile, the Taoist boy began to understand.
I see.
The fool was smiling, as if he didn't have to worry about anything, just like a child born with a pure heart, he happily sat down on the field ridge, not bothering with the blades of grass piercing his butt, and took out a handful of melon seeds from somewhere and cracked them.
started to knock.
Not long after, the couple's worship service was over, and the host began to shout for everyone to have dinner together.
"Come on, come on, sit inside, sit inside, there's a seat."
The host invited all the villagers to go inside, "Come on, come on, pork head meat, beef belly, thigh tendon, sweet roasted white meat, pickled pork with pickles, everything -"
This person is also funny. There is no sense of incongruity in being in charge of the hall by himself. He has stirred up the atmosphere. Everyone said that he is a wonderful person.
After most of the people entered the hall, the Taoist boy who was watching the play slipped away along with the flow of people and observed secretly.
At this time, the only person left outside was the fool in the green jacket, still squatting there and cracking melon seeds with a smile.
It didn't take long, and there was a lot of melon seed shells piled up in front of me.
"Come, sit inside." The person in charge went down a few steps, pulled the fool up, and patted the dusty place where he sat, causing dust to fly for a while.
"Hehe..." The fool still smiled stupidly and said nothing, but he didn't make any trouble.
He would go to other people's houses to do things, and he would help if he could, and then the host would treat him like other guests.
Either serve him a plate of food, or invite him to the table to eat. Before leaving, you will also seal a red envelope for him. The size can be whatever you want, but it hopes for good luck.
