Xiao Nanfeng followed Elder Ku and flew into the sky on a crane, but he could not get a clear view of Taiqing Island because there was smoke from the formation everywhere.
Looking back at the seaside in the distance, he saw that the 10,000 taels of gold under the big ship had not yet been collected. However, Xiao Nanfeng was not in a hurry and was not prepared to collect it now. It would be too garish to collect it now.
The two of them flew on a crane, and not long after, they arrived at an open space deep in Taiqing Island.
"Bah!"
The two cranes slowly landed.
There are a large number of palaces and residences around the square, but most of them are single-story buildings. Only the largest palace in the center is four stories high.
"Sutra Collection Pavilion?" Xiao Nanfeng read out the plaque on the fourth floor of the palace.
Is this the Sutra Collection Pavilion of the Taiqing Immortal Sect?
The Sutra Pavilion was shrouded in golden light, and many disciples came and went. At the same time, there were also guard disciples standing guard to maintain order inside and outside the Sutra Pavilion.
This is the long-term residence of Elder Ku. Even if you can't see it, you can still move around with familiarity.
The crane flew away from the square, and Elder Ku walked towards his residence behind the Sutra Pavilion. Xiao Nanfeng followed closely, holding his qin in his arms, while looking around curiously.
Walking behind the Sutra Pavilion, there was a steep mountain wall. The sound of chanting sutras could be heard in the distance. Xiao Nanfeng looked around and saw about two hundred men and women in Taoist robes, sitting cross-legged.
Chant while facing the wall.
"What they recite... seems to be Taoist scriptures?" Xiao Nanfeng said in surprise.
"Huh? Can you hear it?" Elder Ku asked curiously.
"Yes, I have read one before." Xiao Nanfeng said.
"I will live here and listen to them chanting sutras every day. Do you want to live here? If you don't want to, my teacher can send you to Xuanmai Peak. There are disciples of Xuanmai there, and you can also learn from them.
Basic practice." Elder Ku asked.
"Live here? Do you listen to them chanting sutras every day?" Xiao Nanfeng looked at Elder Ku in surprise.
"Not bad!" Elder Ku said calmly, as if he was testing Xiao Nanfeng.
…
At the same time, the previous Zhaoxian Palace Square.
Ye Dafu saw that Xiao Nanfeng had disappeared into the mountains, but he still felt a little worried.
"Third uncle, that stinky boy, has he reached the sky in one step?" Ye Dafu said with some reluctance.
"That's not necessarily the case. Elder Ku may not be able to bear the environment he lives in." The third uncle shook his head and sighed.
"Oh? Is Elder Ku's residence very difficult?" Ye Dafu's eyes lit up and he asked curiously.
"It's not hard, it's simply purgatory!" Third Uncle said with some fear.
"Purgatory? What do you mean?" Ye Dafu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Xiao Nanfeng was not living a good life, so he felt comfortable. Hearing that Xiao Nanfeng was going to live a life of purgatory, he immediately became energetic.
"Elder Ku lives in the Buddhist Scripture Pavilion, next to Siguo Cliff. The sound of chanting sutras is constantly under Siguo Cliff, and the daily sutras are brainwashing. It is a nightmare place for most disciples of Taiqing Immortal Sect!" said the third uncle with lingering fear!
.
"What do you mean? Thinking over the cliff? Sutra Pavilion? Why is this a nightmare?" Ye Dafu couldn't help but ask.
"You don't know, Taiqing Immortal Sect has many rules. Once someone breaks the rules, they will be punished and forced to think about the scriptures on the back of the cliff." The third uncle recalled.
"Go to Siguoya and memorize scriptures? What scriptures to memorize?" Ye Dafu asked puzzledly.
"There are 48,000 Taoist scriptures in the Sutra Pavilion. Find the scriptures related to your own practice and recite them a hundred times under Siguo Cliff. You cannot repeat the selected scriptures. You know that a scripture has
How many words? A book with a small number of words is okay, but a book with a lot of words will make anyone go crazy and won’t let them go until they finish memorizing it.” The third uncle said with lingering fear, “Last time I accidentally broke a bottle, and I was killed.
I was forced to carry two books on my back for more than half a month, and I..."
"This, this Taiqing Immortal Sect, is it a sect that cultivates immortals or a sect that punishes people? If you make a mistake, you should be punished with an endorsement? I hate endorsements the most, or memorizing useless Taoist scriptures? Isn't this sick?
?Which lunatic made up the punishment rules?" Ye Dafu glared and cursed.
"It's the rules set by the sect master, the pulse master, and the elders." The third uncle said with a strange expression.
You kid is so arrogant that anyone dares to scold you?
Ye Dafu's face froze: "Well, the person who formulated this punishment is indeed far-sighted and magnanimous. He deserves to be a great master!"
The third uncle rolled his eyes. Is this nephew now thick-skinned?
"We dislike the scriptures being obscure and difficult to understand, but the sect masters and elders say that the insights in the Taoist scriptures are more important than practicing the exercises, so they force us to memorize them. They say that we should memorize them first and then understand them slowly, and they also say it is for our own good.
." The third uncle shook his head.
"Are you kidding? How can Taoist scriptures be more important than exercises?" Ye Dafu said in surprise.
"Elder Ku's residence is next to the Sutra Collection Pavilion, so Junior Brother Nanfeng probably has to listen to countless disciples reciting sutras all the time. This is not to mention the penalty of endorsement, which is the tradition of Taiqing Immortal Sect.
Elder Ku likes to use it the most. When he heard that he was fine, he punished the Xuanmai disciples to endorse it, and even called it for your own good, so I can already imagine the following days for Junior Brother Nanfeng, who should be wandering on the road of endorsement every day."
Ye Dafu's face froze: "It is indeed a purgatory on earth. If I want to live there, even if I listen to their endorsement, I will go crazy!"
"Yes!" Third Uncle said with lingering fear.
Obviously, the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is a purgatory in the eyes of many Taiqing Immortal Sect disciples.
…
At this moment, behind the Sutra Pavilion and in front of Siguo Cliff, Xiao Nanfeng glanced at Elder Ku.
"This is a fairyland on earth! It's a dream for my disciples to live here!" Xiao Nanfeng said with a happy face.
"Um?"
Before Elder Ku could speak, the group of people who had endorsed the book under the cliff suddenly seemed to have heard something incredible, and they all turned to look at Xiao Nanfeng.
Who is that kid? What did he just say? This is a paradise on earth? Who are you flattering? You can say such unconscionable things?
Elder Ku also suddenly fell silent. He didn't know if Xiao Nanfeng was deliberately trying to please him or if he really liked this place.
"Master! Are you back?" Suddenly, a woman's voice came.
Xiao Nanfeng looked around and saw that a woman who was sitting cross-legged in front of Siguo Cliff and chanting sutras suddenly jumped up and walked towards Elder Ku.
The woman is in her twenties, of medium height, with a very curvy figure outlined by a black robe. She has a beautiful face, delicate skin, and is very attractive. The most prominent thing is her eyes that seem to be able to speak. When she smiles, her eyes are crooked and quite charming.
Infectious and very lively.
"Xiaoyu? Why are you here again? I told you that I don't accept disciples. Don't waste time here. Go and become your disciple!" Elder Ku shook his head.
Xiaoyu looked forward to it: "Elder Ku, I really want to learn the piano from you. As for practicing, my senior brothers and I can just learn it. You are practicing Qin Dao, and no one in the sect can teach me."
Elder Ku shook his head: "My piano is not that easy to learn. Moreover, you have reached the peak of the Xiantian realm, which is the critical moment of cultivation. Don't waste your time with me. I will not accept you."
"Elder Ku, you didn't teach me, how do you know I can't learn well?" Xiaoyu looked unwilling.
Elder Ku shook his head: "Okay, don't say any more. If you have any doubts about cultivation, I can give you some advice and you won't need to become a disciple."
Xiao Yu was still unwilling to give in. But the other chanting disciples on the side spoke one after another.
"Senior Sister Xiaoyu, please stop pestering me. Elder Ku has not confiscated his disciples for many years, and it will be useless no matter how many times you come."
"Junior sister Xiaoyu, Elder Ku's character, if I tell you the truth, you should never even think about becoming a disciple."
…
A group of people encouraged Xiao Yu.
Xiaoyu glared at everyone ungratefully, then stamped her feet unwillingly: "I want you to talk more! Humph!"
Everyone who chanted the sutras smiled, but no one was angry. It was obvious that Xiaoyu was very popular.
"Have you finished memorizing the book?" Elder Ku asked.
"After memorizing it, I have a photographic memory. I can memorize a scripture after reading it a few times. Memorizing is a piece of cake for me." Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"Now that I've finished memorizing it, help Nanfeng arrange a place to live near my residence." Elder Ku ordered.
Xiaoyu then looked at Xiao Nanfeng: "Eh? This kid is very cool. Was he trying to flatter Elder Ku just now? I can tell you that Elder Ku doesn't do this. Is this a fairyland on earth? It's so funny.
, go and ask, which shameless disciple can say such flattering words like you? Hahahaha."
"Being able to live here is indeed a great joy in life!" Xiao Nanfeng shook his head and said seriously.
Xiao Nanfeng really likes this place. He doesn't have to spend money to buy Taoist scriptures. People chant sutras to him every day. Where can he find such a good place? You don't understand me!
"Oops? What a blessing in life? Why are you so thick-skinned? Boy, where are you from? Why did Elder Ku let you live nearby? Are you a new handyman disciple? I can tell you, if you pat Elder Ku on his horse
The fart is useless." Xiaoyu put her hands on her hips and struck at Xiao Nanfeng.
"I was just in the Zhaoxian Hall Square. I was fortunate enough to have Elder Ku as my teacher. What I just said was not flattery to my master, but came from the bottom of my heart." Xiao Nanfeng explained.
Xiao Yu's original ridicule suddenly stopped, and then her face froze: "Wha, what? Elder Ku has accepted you as his disciple? How is this possible?"
She came to beg Elder Ku many times, but Elder Ku ignored her. She thought Elder Ku really stopped accepting disciples. But how did this person succeed in becoming a disciple?
Not only Xiao Yu, but other chanters also looked at Xiao Nanfeng in surprise. It was obvious that the matter of Elder Ku accepting a disciple was not a trivial matter.
"Master has a wise eye to accept a disciple, what is impossible?" Xiao Nanfeng said calmly.
Xiao Yu stared at Xiao Nanfeng for a while, and then glanced at Elder Ku who was not far away. Could it be that we all misunderstood? Elder Ku likes apprentices who can flatter him? Look at what he said, "Master, you have a wise eye."
"Disciple"? Are you praising the wisdom of the elders or praising yourself as a talent? This kid is not only a flatterer, but also a shameless one?
