In front of Yuxu Palace is a large white jade square. The four masters of Shenzhi are standing together. Behind them are the masters and the third-grade Youyi Taoist priest, then the fourth-grade wine-offering Taoist priest and a group of young fifth-grade Taoist priests - because the above
The palace's "Young Talents Program" is still on trial, so not all candidates will participate in further training.
Soon, people from Confucianism and Buddhism, led by Taoist Zhike, also arrived in front of Yuxu Palace.
The standards of both the Confucian and Taoist sects are not low. The leader of the Confucian sect is a great master, and the leader of the Buddhist sect is a venerable master. In terms of rank, they correspond to the great masters of the Taoist sect.
It’s just that the Taoist sect has the most respectable status. The chief leader of the Taoist sect is obviously a head higher than the leaders of the Confucian sect and the Buddhist sect. By analogy, the actual status of the Taoist sect is one level higher than that of the other two sects. Shenzhi Zhenren can completely
The great masters of the Confucian sect, the venerable sages of the Buddhist sect, not to mention the seven generations of great masters will most likely come from these three Zhenzhi masters, so it is not considered disrespectful.
After the six people exchanged greetings for a while, they saw Ning Lingge wave his hand, and the Taoist disciples behind him immediately dispersed to both sides, forming an avenue that led directly to the gate of Yuxu Palace, their movements uniform.
Master Donghua stretched out his hand and made an "invite" gesture, and the six of them walked side by side towards Yuxu Palace, followed closely by those from each family who were qualified to participate in the conference of the three religions.
The Yuxu Palace has already been well-arranged. Because Taishang Daozu advocates frugality, it is not very luxurious. It is just open and spacious. If a banquet is held, it can not only accommodate hundreds of people sitting at the same time. If the tables are removed, even a direct battle of skills will not be possible.
Not cramped at all.
It was in this hall that Donghuang defeated thirteen masters from the Confucian and Taoist families, and won the martial arts competition for the Taoist sect.
The four Zhenzhi masters and the two distinguished guests sit high on the main seat above, one seat for each person, and the others sit on the left and right sides below the steps. In the past, the right side was respected, but now the left side is respected, so he is the host.
The Taoist disciples all sat on the left, while the Confucian and Buddhist disciples who were guests sat on the right.
The first person on the left is Wei Erpin Taiyi Taoist priest, who is now the chief deputy hall leader of the ancestral temple. The second person is Zhang Yuelu. This position should belong to Yao Pei.
The first person on the right is a monk with golden skin, with an expressionless face, like a Buddha statue. It can be seen that this person is probably not here to talk about Taoism, but to practice martial arts. Over the years, Confucianism and Buddhism have changed in the three religions.
There was some tacit understanding at the conference: Buddhism is mainly responsible for taking action, while Confucianism is mainly responsible for speaking. After all, a gentleman talks but does not take action.
The second one is an extremely handsome man. His face is as beautiful as jade, and his eyes are like stars, but there is no trace of makeup. There is a compelling heroic spirit between his eyebrows. He is really brave and extraordinary, making women fall in love with him. Such a man,
She doesn’t have any power or ability, and just based on her appearance, there are bound to be women who fall in love with her. After men see her, they are either envious, jealous, or ashamed of themselves. There are even some men who are as moved as women. Very few people can.
Be indifferent.
This is Qin Lingge, who is known as "the most beautiful man in the world".
After everyone entered Yuxu Palace, Qinling Pavilion took away all the attention and became the most dazzling pearl.
There was not much arrogance on Qin Lingge's face, he was very gentle, and there was even a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Many people were secretly taking a look at this famous and proud man.
After Zhang Yuelu looked at Qin Lingge for a few times, he took out a booklet from his sleeve and started to read it. These were the notes she took after working hard all night last night, and they still smell of pen and ink. What is meant by sharpening a gun in battle, this is it.
There is no way. Zhang Yuelu is not good at this. It's not that he doesn't understand it at all, but he has never organized it into a coherent and complete set of arguments. The key to discussing Taoism lies in the word "Lun", and his verbal skills cannot be underestimated.
Others naturally didn’t know what Zhang Yuelu was looking at, and they didn’t expect that Zhang Yuelu would do something impromptu. They just thought that she was looking at other things. Some even thought that Zhang Yuelu was looking at the official documents of Tiangang Hall. They just thought that Deputy Hall Master Zhang was really honest.
Arrogant, as if he doesn't take today's opponent seriously.
But who would have thought that Zhang Yuelu took today's discussion extremely seriously and would either not do it or do it well.
When Master Donghua was speaking, Master Cihang glanced at the disciples from the corner of her eye. With her condescending perspective and far superior eyesight, she could clearly see the contents of the notes and couldn't help but laugh.
Most of the things in this world are afraid of the word "serious". I thought that even if I lose in this discussion, it won't be too ugly.
After Zhang Yuelu entered a state of concentrating on review, he was quite similar to Qi Xuansu's state when practicing swordsmanship. He turned a deaf ear to all kinds of things outside, and he had the attitude of not listening to what was happening outside the window and only reading the books of sages.
Qin Lingge's eyes couldn't help but fall on Zhang Yuelu. He had long heard of the famous name and various deeds of this banished immortal, but he didn't expect that the two of them would meet under such circumstances, and this banished immortal also met with
He looked completely different from what he imagined, and his behavior was even more unexpected.
The Founder's Confucian sect, which always pays attention to rules, has no room for such a woman.
At this moment, after the important figures had finished speaking, Ning Lingge said, "I heard that a little friend named Qin is here this time."
Qin Lingge stood up and said, "Junior Qin Lingge has met Zhenren Ning."
Ning Lingge smiled and said: "My friend's name is Lingge, and I am also called Lingge. It's a rare fate. I wonder what your nickname is?"
Qin Lingge said: "My junior name is Yuting."
"Yuting, fortunately our cousins have different names." Ning Lingge said.
Qin Lingge smiled faintly and said no more.
Although this move is not rude at all, it still seems a little too arrogant in front of a real person.
Ning Lingge motioned for Qin Lingge to sit down, and then said: "The so-called discussion of Tao and martial arts, the discussion of Tao comes first, and the performance of martial arts comes after. Therefore, today is just a discussion of Tao, and tomorrow we will perform martial arts."
Qin Lingge's face showed undoubted strong confidence. He looked around at the Taoist disciples opposite him. However, except for a few elderly Taoist disciples, the other young disciples did not dare to meet Qin Lingge's eyes. They were obviously not sure about discussing with Qin Lingge.
Tao, they all gave way.
Master Donghua and Master Qingwei showed no signs of expression on their faces, and their smiles remained unchanged, but they were not indifferent. In addition to a little displeasure, they probably also felt a little regretful that Yao Pei and Li Changge could not be present. It was not that they looked down on Zhang Yuelu, but
Many real people have said that Zhang Yuelu's strength lies in doing things. In other words, her strength is not in talking heads. This time she is catching the duck.
However, Ning Lingge didn't think so. She looked at Zhang Yuelu, her old subordinate who was most optimistic about her, and felt quite confident.
Finally, Qin Lingge's eyes fell on Zhang Yuelu, whose lips moved slightly as if he was mumbling something.
Zhang Yuelu, however, concentrated on the notes in his hand and did not respond to Qin Lingge's gaze, looking increasingly arrogant.
Qin Lingge's face was slightly cold and a little angry, but he soon returned to his normal mood.
Even if a Taoist disciple is not as good as him, he can still beat him by virtue of his status as a Taoist disciple. After all, he has a family background.
Master Cihang said softly: "Qingxiao."
The sound was not loud, but the "Morning Bell and Dusk Drum" from the "Cihang Pudu Sword Code" was used to directly "awaken" Zhang Yuelu without startling her. The mystery of the method and the subtlety of its application were truly unparalleled in the world.
Zhang Yuelu put away the notes in his hand naturally, straightened his expression, and looked at Qin Ling Pavilion, quite intent on going to the examination room.
Because he was sitting down to discuss Taoism, Qin Lingge did not stand up. He cupped his hands towards Zhang Yuelu and said, "I have heard Zhang Gaogong's name for a long time, and it is like thunder in my ears. I want to ask for advice today."
Zhang Yuelu said: "Fellow Taoist Qin is a guest, please use the code."
This is the rule of discussing Taoism. One party asks a question, and the other party answers. Questioning is not just about throwing out a question casually, but it is necessary to quote scriptures and provide evidence.
Because it is a conference of three religions, the scope of classics includes various classics from Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism. They can be the words of Taishang Taoist, Buddha, the Holy Master, or the words of other sages of the three religions.
If someone else throws out a classic, but you don't know the source, then even if you lose without a fight, it will test the erudition of the person who talks about Taoism, and the threshold is very high.
Qin Lingge was not polite and said directly: "Okay."
