From the headmaster of Quanzhen, he began to traverse the heavens

Chapter 158

The ninth day of September in the first year of Zhaoguang in the Song Dynasty.

The Zixiao Palace in Wudang Mountain on the Southwest Road of Beijing is full of incense. Tourists are weaving on the mountain road. The orchestra in the palace is playing music such as Buxu Diao and Wannian Pine.

In the apse, however, is the Zhai Dip Conference held by the Quanzhen Taoist priests. This conference is not only a traditional celebration of Doumu Yuanjun's birthday, but also to save the souls of the disciples who died in Zhongnan Mountain. Now the ranking of these disciples They are all enshrined on the side of the Zushi Hall, and they consume incense and tributes every day.

Since the Quanzhen Church became the state religion of the Song Dynasty, and Qingxuan Zhenren was named the state teacher of the Song Dynasty, the Zixiao Palace in the Song Dynasty has become a good place for Taoist dignitaries and pilgrims to burn incense and kowtow, petition and pray for blessings.

Originally, the Qingniu Palace in Lin'an was also one of the palaces of the Quanzhen Sect, but it was dedicated to serving the royal family and ministers and nobles, and it was too far away, so the Zixiao Palace was more incense.

Especially in the past month, the Quanzhen believers in the Central Plains and the North learned that there was a sudden fire in the Chongyang Palace, and after the disaster, the ancestor of the Qingxuan Zhenjun ordered the disciples to move to the Zixiao Palace.

Everyone knew that the Quanzhen Sect was going to move the ancestral court of the sect to the south, and all the believers rushed to come to worship the incense, and even pushed the incense of the Zixiao Palace to the most prosperous event in the palaces and monasteries in the world. Every day scene It is comparable to the appearance of burning incense at Nantianmen on the [-]th anniversary of the prosperous New Year's Eve a thousand years later.

Today is the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of September. The Quanzhen Sect headmaster Qingxuan Zhenjun personally led the disciples with Chi Lian Sanren to worship the Taoist gods such as Sanqing Liuyu and other Taoist gods in the main hall of Zixiao Palace, as well as Chongyang Patriarch, Lu Zu and other Patriarchs.

By the time the Zhai Dip Ceremony and sacrifices are over, it is already dusk.

Lin Qingxuan instructed his disciples to recite the scriptures in the Zushi Hall to save the dead, and then handed over the affairs of the palace to Taoist Zhiqing, while he and Li Mochou returned to the back room of the apse to rest.

After entering the room, Lin Qingxuan took off the violet robe and just sat down to drink a cup of tea when he saw a Taoist man in his fifties with fair skin and as warm as jade walked in.

Lin Qingxuan smiled and said, "Senior Brother Sun, sit down and have tea."

Sun Desheng, Li Mochou, and Lin Qingxuan sat down in the room, and Chen Lingyun brought his two disciples forward to serve tea.

Lin Qingxuan saw that Chen Lingyun had only one arm left after the battle at the Yuqing Palace, but when he was extremely skilled, especially in the Western Regions, he instructed: "Lingyun, you have done a good job in the "Yuqing Slaying Demons".

When using one arm, it is more disadvantageous than ordinary people. The soft blade kung fu handed down from your master's family is the best in the world. If you can practice the kung fu of cloth ling and brush dust from that empty sleeve, you will eventually become a master craftsman in the future. "

Chen Lingyun admires Lin Qingxuan the most, and is grateful in his heart that if it hadn't been for the kindness of his uncle Qingxuan, how would he be blessed to be worshipped under the seat of the Red Lian Sanren and become a disciple of the third generation of Quanzhen Sect?
Hearing the sect master Zhenjun and the old man still thinking about him, Chen Lingyun kowtowed and said, "It's all because you taught me well, the sect master, and this disciple has made some achievements. It's just that the disciple is too stupid and can't practice the essence of Yuqing magic... ..." Chen Lingyun's voice was slightly choked up as he spoke.

Lin Qingxuan lifted him up with a roll of his sleeved robe. Li Mochou smiled and said, "I have taught you very little over the years. I will teach you Tie Xiu Gong tomorrow. After you practice it, you will be able to keep pace with Zhiping."

Chen Lingyun kneeled and kowtowed again gratefully.

As the sun went down, the light in the house was already very dim. Chen Lingyun got up and took out the scythe and lit the candle, and a warm orange light appeared in the house.

Seeing Sun Desheng's expression with emotion, Lin Qingxuan smiled, knowing that he was remembering the past of his two brothers, "Senior Brother Sun, your Xuan Gong has become more and more superb over the years. Why don't you accept a disciple?"

It had been a few days since Lin Qingxuan and Li Mochou led Quanzhen disciples back to Zixiao Palace.

A few days ago, as soon as they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Sun Desheng led his disciples out of the mountain to greet him. These few days, Lin Qingxuan and Sun Desheng talked all night long every night, and slept on their feet, leaving Li Mochou in the cold.

However, the two brothers hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and Li Mochou didn't feel angry until the intimacy hadn't dissipated for a while.

In Lin Qingxuan's eyes, Sun Desheng is still the same white and plump appearance he was more than ten years ago, but his temples and beard are already white. Although his eyes are shining and his face is purple, the wrinkles on his forehead and the corners of his eyes are getting deeper and deeper. , looks old-fashioned.

Sun Desheng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I don't like dancing knives, swords, boxing, and martial arts, but I just study the methods of outer and inner alchemy every day, and if it weren't for the true Taoist teachings you taught me, I even got the skills from meditation. I don’t have the ability, so I still don’t understand how to cultivate, and if I dare to mislead others, it is absolutely impossible to accept an apprentice.”

Lin Qingxuan knew that Senior Brother Sun had always been quiet and indifferent to the world. After decades of meditation, his Daoist cultivation and realm had reached the highest level, and his words and deeds were true and true, so he did not ask any further questions.

The three chatted for a while, and talked about their experience in cultivating Nei Dan Qigong for a while. Suddenly Lin Qingxuan kept silent, Li Mochou and Sun Desheng also heard someone coming, and then heard Taoist Zhiqing say in the courtyard: "Master , disciples come to see you."

Immediately afterwards, I heard Yin Zhiping, Lv Zhitang, Li Zhichang, Wang Zhitan, Cui Zhifang and others also shouting to meet.

Lin Qingxuan knew that these three generations of disciples were the essence of the sect, and they came together to decide for themselves important matters of the sect, so he said solemnly: "Come in and talk."

After entering the room and seeing the ceremony, Yin Zhiping, as the chief disciple of the third generation, has a distinguished status, and said first: "Uncle Master. The ceremony is over, the Chaodu Conference will be suspended tomorrow, and the Northland Commercial Bank and Taoist Academy that you requested to withdraw have also withdrawn to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. I don't know how your old man will accommodate these thousands of disciples and industrial personnel?"

It turned out that since Lin Qingxuan took Quanzhen disciples to the south from Chang'an County, he had taken into account that the Meng-Song War had begun, and the division of life and death could not be changed.

Since the Quanzhen Sect has decided to bet on the Great Song Dynasty, and even trained Zhao Xiyan, Emperor Zhaoguang more than ten years ago, with the stalemate of the Song and Mongolia wars, the Quanzhen Sect's status in Mongolia will be very embarrassing.

Even now that Lin Qingxuan is back, Meng Ge is afraid of his ability to take people's heads from thousands of troops, such as looking for things, and dare not abolish the status of Quanzhen religion, but he downplays Quanzhen religion and supports Tantric Buddhism. Eight or nine must be done.

In the future, it is not easy to say that after the war, even Mongolia is at a disadvantage, will it take revenge on the Quanzhen Sect, so it is considered to prevent Mongolia from suppressing the Quanzhen Sect in the north, and at the same time to shrink the power of the sect, Lin Qingxuan only slapped the palm of his hand. The teacher pulled up a list and ordered most of the businesses involved to withdraw to the territory of the Song Dynasty, and at the same time transferred all the property back.

Some of the lower houses of Taoist temples have also been withdrawn, leaving only a part, so as not to let Meng Ge and others think that the Quanzhen Sect has a huge influence in the north, and they are afraid of giving birth to other thoughts.

After listening to Yin Zhiping's report, Lin Qingxuan nodded and said, "The people of the Yungui generation lack education, and our Taoist sect is not prosperous enough in Nanyue, and there is still some foundation for our Quanzhen religion in the southern Zhulu prefectures. Weak, send half of those disciples to open up a dojo, and send the rest to the Western Regions.

As for the business, we must continue to do it, but most of them have changed from the bright side to the dark side, and some can also be adjusted to shipping. We still have some secrets in the north, so the business cannot stop.

Yin Kexi and Lingyun were originally in charge of these matters, but now Kexi is in charge of the Western Regions affairs in the Yuqing Palace, Lingyun can't handle it alone, Zhitang also shoulders it, and the two of you help to do it..."

Lin Qingxuan arranged many affairs very well, and Yin Zhiping, Lv Zhitang, Chen Lingyun and others who were named hurriedly bowed to their promises.

Everyone was listening to the instructions of the leader, the real monarch, when they suddenly saw a small Taoist boy approaching quickly, knelt down and said: "The leader, the messenger of Mengge Khan who came down from the mountain, said that he wanted to invite your old man to Xixia. See you at the palace."

Lin Qingxuan looked at Li Mochou and Sun Desheng, and saw that they both shook their heads lightly, knowing that Brother Meng would have known that his national teacher had returned.

But he only came to invite himself now, and he did not respond to the fact that more than a dozen sects such as Tantric and King Kongmen attacked the Chongyang Palace, which itself represented an attitude.

Now sending someone to invite him, I guess he wants to test his attitude, but it is inevitable to be dissatisfied with Quanzhen Sect.

Lin Qingxuan also knew that Mongolia was not weak to the Quanzhen Religion, and even more so to himself. Although he kept Genghis Khan on his westward expedition, he lived more than ten years, but the Quanzhen Religion was the state religion of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Song has been so sorry for Mongolia, and his own national teacher should not end up.

Moreover, Lin Qingxuan felt that he had cultivated to the martial arts realm of the ceiling of the martial arts world. It was difficult to think that it was impossible to make progress. All he could do was to constantly polish his true qi and make his inner strength more pure, but it was difficult to make great progress.

Today's Lin Qingxuan has no intention of meddling in the world's disputes, and only wants to concentrate on studying the "Dao Fa Xianshu" created by him and Zhou Botong, which can see beyond martial arts. Therefore, it is Lin Qingxuan how to deduce the immortal law and Taoism. Where his eyes are, what he pursues is the illusory immortality and immortality as an ancestor, and is to open up the immortal path, so he is not ready to meet Brother Meng.

Originally, Lin Qingxuan also thought that the first few wars would cause few lives to be ruined, and the second would be to have a unified, stable and prosperous dynasty, so at the beginning, he was educating the Mongolian Khan and his son, thinking about cultivating a Sinicized court, so as long as the future Dayuan If you can not turn the Han people into third- and fourth-class, naturally you can let them be unified.

However, Lin Qingxuan was unwilling to spend too much energy and time on cultivating Mongolian Khans from generation to generation. He was worried that the future would still exceed his expectations, so he made both preparations and supported and trained his own apprentice Zhao Xiyan. Great Song who can fight.

Now that the Song Dynasty has prospered, and after the death of Tuo Lei, Mongolia has indeed increased the degree of Sinicization after Meng Ge succeeded to the throne, but under the influence of the great unification and orthodox culture, Mongolia is also eager to dominate the world.

Lin Qingxuan himself is a monk after all, and the battle between Mongolia and the Song Dynasty is imperative. One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

Now that the Great Song Dynasty is becoming more and more powerful, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is also a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect headmaster Zhenjun. In terms of love and reason, public and private, the Quanzhen Sect should use the power of the entire Sect to help the Great Song Dynasty. It is vast, and many forces are scattered to various parts of the Western Regions. It is just around the corner of the Great Song Dynasty to re-determine the Central Plains. Even if the descendants are unworthy, I am afraid that the worst situation can be maintained in the territory of the future Ming Dynasty.

Mongolia has a large area of ​​land laid down by the Western Expedition. Even if it loses the Central Plains and the North, it is still a good destination to retreat to Central Asia and West Asia and become a big country that traverses Eurasia.

Therefore, Lin Qingxuan has already decided not to ask where the kingship and hegemony belong. If Song Dynasty wins, he will save his descendants and retreat to the Western Regions by looking at Genghis Khan's face. If Mongolia wins in the future, he will go to the Golden Horde of Great Khan. After a walk, let the Mongolian Khan treat the Han and the Southerners equally, not to kill and bully.

He was no longer going to ask about Song Meng. Naturally, Lin Qingxuan didn't want to see Brother Meng, but he just let the disciples say that the real monarch, the national teacher, was in retreat and practiced, and he sent the person away.

Two days later, the imperial envoy of the Song Dynasty also accompanied Zhao Chi, the new palace master of Qingniu Palace, to Zixiao Palace to meet Lin Qingxuan.

Lin Qingxuan originally wanted to be dismissed, but Li Mochou told Lin Qingxuan that Zhao Chi, the new owner of Qingniu Palace, was the prince of the dynasty and the son of Zhao Yun.

Lin Qingxuan had never met Zhao Zhiyan, who was the son of Zhao Shi, and thought that his disciple and grandson would come to visit him, and it would be hard to see him, so he arranged for the imperial envoy to rest, and only met the 16-year-old in the back mountain jingshe. The Prince of the Great Song Dynasty is also Zhao Chi, who just served as the lord of the Qingniu Palace last month.

Lin Qingxuan had a clear mind and knew that the original Qingniu Palace was headed by the Seventh Quanzhen and Li Mochou, who should be the one who should be in charge of the real Ma Yu's orders, but after Li Mochou disappeared, the Qingniu Palace had no owner.

At that time, Qingxuan Zhenjun lost news in the Western Regions for more than a year. Not only Mongolia had a mind, but the Song Dynasty court also wanted to hold the Qingniu Palace in the palm of his hand, so Zhao Yan ordered the prince to enter Taoism and become a Qingniu. Palace Lord.

Naturally, the seven sons of Quanzhen would not have any reaction. In addition, they all returned to Chongyang Palace to protect their teachings. Many high-dao disciples of Qingniu Palace also rushed back to Zhongnan Mountain. The commander who entered the Taoist practice completely grasped it.

When the Chongyang Palace was under siege, Mongolia secretly contributed to the flames, but the Song Dynasty did not send any masters to help, but just waited and watched, which was also a manifestation of fear of Quanzhen Sect.

Lin Qingxuan knew that Zhao Yun was a Quanzhen disciple again, and his main identity was the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

But no matter what, Zhao Chi was always his own disciple and grandson, and Lin Qingxuan liked this handsome young man with a handsome face.

Zhao Chi came in wearing an apricot and yellow Taoist robe, first glanced at Li Mochou, obviously he knew him, and then saw Lin Qingxuan, he immediately knelt down with his robe, and said, "Disciple Zhao Chi greets Shizu and Li Shishu. "

"Get up, dear boy."

Lin Qingxuan smiled slightly, and looked at the prince of Song Dynasty warmly. He sat on the futon without moving his hands and feet, and he held Zhao Chi up with a gentle strength.

Lin Qingxuan tried to find out the authentic martial arts that he possessed with full sincerity. He had a solid foundation, and his internal strength was already moderate, so he couldn't help but feel even more happy.

Before Zhao Chi came, he had to be called up by his father, Huang'er, saying that it was the master, his old man's martial arts, and he was a living immortal in the world. When he saw him, he must be treated with courtesy and respect, and so on.

Although Zhao Chi had already thought about his grandfather greatly before he saw him, but he was really lifted up by the irresistible power of gentleness when he saw his grandfather even moving. Guang, even saw the divine power of the Quanzhen seven sons, but it was still unimaginable and incomprehensible, and he finally believed the words that the grandfather was a terrestrial immortal, and the brilliance of curiosity and worship flashed in his eyes.

Lin Qingxuan asked, "Who did you learn martial arts from?"

"My father taught me some things when I was young, and I also learned some things from my master."

"Who is your master?"

"Zhicheng Daoist is the teacher, but it's a pity that his old man passed away."

Lin Qingxuan also sighed slightly and asked, "Is your father okay?"

"Father is busy with military affairs every day, and he frowns all day long, and misses his master from time to time... He told me about your old man many times... This time, he also asked me to stay in Zixiao Palace for more time...for him Do your best to..."

Zhao Chi was talking and imitating Zhao Yan's demeanor and tone, and said what Zhao Chi was instructed to say.

Li Mochou couldn't help giggling when he saw the vividness of his learning.

Lin Qingxuan felt relieved when he remembered Zhao Xiyan, and said, "Well, you live with me for three months, and the master passed on you some of the most brilliant martial arts."

Hearing that, Zhao Chi was overjoyed, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Thank you for my grandfather, my father said I was coming, and you will definitely take care of your grandson."

Lin Qingxuan nodded and was about to ask Chen Lingyun to arrange a place for him, Zhao Chi hurriedly bowed and said, "Grandpa, my father sent me and Master Song, Minister of Rites, and would like to invite you to Lin'an.

My father said that he would not be free when he became an emperor. He wanted to come to see you in person, but the officials did not agree. He could only ask you to condescend to go to the Qingniu Palace in Lin'an to stay for a few days, so that the three of us can be reunited. reunion. "

Lin Qingxuan was noncommittal and asked, "What else is there? If this is the case, what are the officials of the Ministry of Rites to do?"

"I can't hide anything from your old man."

Zhao Chi smiled and said: "My father said, that Mongolia canonized you as a true monarch, and my father has long wanted to make you a Tianzun as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, but the seven masters and uncles disagreed. If you say that you are the headmaster, let the Ministry of Rites draw up a decree to seal you as a celestial master."

Lin Qingxuan smiled lightly and said, "The emperor is generous, and the Celestial Master can be on an equal footing with his Son of Heaven in the secular world, and no one persuades him?"

"Your old man is the golden fairy of the land to save the common people. Who dares to stop it? Let me say that it is not a loss to seal you Tianzun."

"You're a good boy, but it's useless to seal anything, you can't really see it for a long time, everything is nothing but nothing... Hey... Heavenly Master..."

The so-called Tianshi of Zhengdao was self-proclaimed at the beginning, and was not recognized by the court. Even in Song Huizong’s time, he worshipped Taoism and praised Zhengyi, but he gave the contemporary Zhang Tianshi the title of Mr. Xujing. Zhang Tianshi became a celestial teacher, and Mr. Xujing was named Xujing Xuantong Hongwu Zhenjun.

Now that Lin Qingxuan is still alive, Mongolia has named him a true monarch who can only be conferred by an immortal, which naturally means a living immortal.

While the Quanzhen Sect moved south, Lin Qingxuan returned to the Zixiao Palace, and Zhao Yan added Lin Qingxuan as an officially recognized "Heavenly Master" at this time.

In the Taoist system, which is a mythological system, it is a lot higher than the real monarch who was conferred by the Mongolian Lin Qingxuan. It is the teacher of all spirits who cultivates the Tao of innate and establishes Tao and teaches.

Lin Qingxuan had long guessed that after returning to the Central Plains, both Mongolia and Song Dynasty would curry favor with him, but he did not want to be involved in the affairs of the two countries, so he had no intention to deal with Mongolia and Song Dynasty. Dongmiao Qingxuan Zhenjun Datianshi did not want the edict, and the Minister of Rites did not receive him at all.

However, the imperial court added Lin Qingxuan as the True Monarch Celestial Master, but regarded him as a god. Whether Lin Qingxuan accepted the decree or saw the imperial envoy, the imperial envoy had to put the imperial decree and plaque in the Zixiao Palace, and then the imperial court reported it with the residence at the same time. Proclaim to the world.

That is to say, since September of the first year of Zhaoguang, there has been an additional Qingxuan Zhenjun Datianshi among the Taoist gods in the Song Dynasty, and he is officially recognized as a living god.
