Chapter 4
Hearing what his junior brother said, Ma Yu smiled and said: "The disillusionment of life and death is the way of heaven and earth. Junior brother still needs to uphold the Tao with all his heart, so that he can achieve the right result as soon as possible. However, junior brother's idea is not bad. If he can really absorb the purple energy of the rising sun, although he can't say he can As the "Huainanzi" said: Those who eat Qi can live long as gods, but if you think about the power of the rising sun and the growth of all things, if you can use a little bit, it will not hinder your body and mind. You can study it slowly when you have time. Now, I should go to morning class!"

Speaking of pulling Qiu Zhiqing back into the Taoist temple, Tan Chuduan followed closely behind, and then Hao Datong stared at the rising sun in a daze for a while, then shook his head in self-deprecating manner, turned around and hurried to catch up with the one who was about to enter the temple. The two brothers...

Their conversation fell on Qiu Zhiqing's ears, but he was a little interested. Could it be that Taiguzi Hao Datong was talking about the later "Zixia Magic Art"?Isn't it said that the "Zixia Divine Art" of the Huashan School was created based on the Qi training chapter of "Sunflower Treasure" and blended with Huashan's mind?
Forget it, it will happen more than a hundred years later, who cares, at that time, maybe I will already be a handful of loess, buried in some corner!Qiu Zhiqing, who let his mind fly, was doing morning classes like a sham, reciting the "Qingjing Sutra".

I used to concentrate on doing morning classes, but I didn’t pay attention to it. Now I started to touch the fish, and I looked at the little friends around me. Good guy, can these people be called touch fish?It gave Qiu Zhiqing the feeling that a group of fishermen came to the Chongyang Hall to reflect on themselves...

No wonder the old Taoist despises these crooked people!You see, among the dozens of disciples in the entire Taoist temple, the old Taoist only takes a fancy to himself, which is enough to show his excellence.

It's really duplicity, and you have to say that your qualifications are not good, so let's do it now!A lot of people have to run down the mountain to find disciples by themselves. You said that if you are bigger and stronger like Quanzhen, what's wrong with waiting for disciples to come to you and pick them one by one?
……

Now that the old Taoist is gone, Qiu Zhiqing has to continue living his little life. Now that he is the little administrator of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, it is not much different from when he was a Taoist boy.

It is still his own fixed life pattern, breathing and exhaling at sunrise, although he always feels the warm breath running inside, but Master Zhang said that is normal.

In addition, the old Taoist also said that it is the breathing method, so Qiu Zhiqing didn't bother to worry about whether he was practicing internal skills...

Next is the morning class. In the morning, follow the teacher to practice "Wu Qin Xi Dao Yin Shu", ask questions, clean and tidy up the Buddhist scriptures pavilion, learn Taoist scriptures and medical skills in the afternoon, and take notes so that he can ask questions to the real teacher the next day...

Time flies like running water, and the world floats and sinks like quicksand.Three years passed uneventfully like this, the sixth year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty, the first year of Jin Chongqing, and 1213 A.D. Qiu Zhiqing is ten years old this year!
Of course, Qiu Zhiqing is not clear how many years ago, it was all sponsored by the author!In the past three years, some people have come and some have left... Of course, there are also people who have become apprentices, such as his former roommates Fang Zhiqi and Liu Zhiyuan, who were favored by Zhang Zhenzi Tan Chuduan and accepted into the door!

Another example is that real Yuyangzi Wang Chuyi accepted Zhao Zhijing, Cui Zhifang and five others!Of course, Wang Chuyi's return to the Taoist temple was just a coincidence, thanks to Wang Chuyi and Qiu Chuji's wanderings in the rivers and lakes in the past few years!
In the past few years, Quanzhen's reputation in Jianghu has been growing, almost every day people in Chongyang Palace come to apprentice.

However, this has nothing to do with Qiu Zhiqing. Although there are more people in Chongyang Palace, the number of people who often borrow scriptures from the Sutra Pavilion has not increased much!

A novel is a novel after all, and the Quanzhen Sect is not limited to the Quanzhen Seven Masters.Wang Chongyang devoted himself to preaching, and the Seven Sons of Quanzhen were also enthusiastic about it, and there were also many Taoist priests who placed orders in Chongyang Palace.

Just like the old Taoists before, and those Taoist priests who taught their disciples to read scriptures and calligraphy.Naturally, when they go to Chongyang Palace to discuss the Dao, they will not only discuss the Dao, but also do some things within their ability, such as teaching, guarding the Sutra Pavilion, cleaning, etc...

After the departure of these Taoist priests, the reputation of Chongyang Palace has been raised to a higher level!
Today, after finishing the morning class, the master teacher did not let the disciples disperse, but announced something.It turned out that the real Changchun Ranger returned, saying that he took in a lay disciple last year and started the mode of being a good teacher!

So I wanted to accept a few disciples in the teaching, but this was combined with Qiu Zhiqing's apprenticeship ceremony!
The disciples below have also been notified. This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened, and everyone understands the process!Could it be that the Seven Sons of Quanzhen gathered in Chongyang Palace, and the ceremony was presided over by an old real person invited from Zhongnan Mountain.

Seeing that everyone stood up and returned to their seats, the old real man said, "Please Patriarch~" resounding through the Chongyang Hall... The Seven Sons of Quanzhen took the lead in offering incense to the Chongyang Patriarch, and performed three prostrations and nine kowtows.This step is probably to communicate with the patriarch and tell the patriarch that your old disciples and grandchildren are here to say hello to you again!

Then the old real person took out another table and read it for a while, forget the original text, I don’t know how to write, the general meaning is: the ancestor is above, the disciple is not filial, disturbing your old rest today, but don’t worry about it, today It is for the inheritance of Dao veins!
This disciple has taken a fancy to another disciple, and I specially invite you to come and keep an eye on it, so that you will always know that the Dao vein is prosperous now, so don't worry about it when you are old!That's probably what it means...

After paying homage to the patriarch and reading the inscription, the Quanzhen Seven Sons sat next to the statue of the patriarch.Qiu Zhiqing knew that it was time to play by himself!At this moment, Qiu Zhiqing couldn't help but wonder if he would be beaten to death on the spot if he walked up the "Lu Zu step"?
Of course, just think about it, after all, "Lu Zubu" is indeed not ordinary arrogant in the eyes of outsiders...

Qiu Zhiqing came out, and walked to the futon under the statue of the patriarch amid envious, jealous, or gratified eyes.

Hold the Tai Chi with both hands in front of the abdomen (that is, pinch the Ziwu formula, not like holding a ball), and then lift it to the front of the mouth, this is to show the ancestors what you look like, not some crooked melon and cracked dates!
When the patriarch saw it clearly, he stroked his chest with his left hand to show his sincerity, and at the same time bent over and knelt down with his right hand on the futon. This is called "li".

Then open the chest with the left hand and press the back of the right hand, presenting a cross shape (of course, some hands may not be visible if the hands are relatively short, and the hands are at right angles). Prostrate and kowtow (not nodding buttocks), kowtow on the back of the hands, this is called "kowtow"!
After three salutes and nine kowtows to the statue of the patriarch in this way, he told the patriarch: "Hey! This is your lovely old successor. Have you always seen it clearly?" Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't see it clearly. Xiang, don't throw away your disciples with tributes...

The next step is to hand over the name post!Originally, he was officially a monk, and he had to say goodbye to his elders, relatives and friends at home... But due to well-known reasons, this step was saved!

Qiu Zhiqing handed over the teacher's apprenticeship sticker, saluted and kowtowed three times to Ma Yu, and at the same time, the old man had just finished reading his congratulations, so he didn't know how he got the timing so accurate.Qiu Zhiqing took advantage of the opportunity and handed him a cup of apprentice tea, and the old man came up and messed up his bun, tied Qiu Zhiqing's hair again, and performed the crown and scarf ceremony.

Arriving here is actually the end of the apprenticeship ceremony. Qiu Zhiqing has already joined the Quanzhen Headmaster Ma Yu's sect, so he can legitimately announce the master-student relationship.

But things have to come to an end, so Ma Yu once again confirmed Qiu Zhiqing's Taoist name "Zhiqing", which means that the word "Zhiqing" was just his name before, and now that he has entered the Tao, this is his Taoist name !
However, this is not very obvious. Generally, one's seniority will be determined after entering the Chongyang Palace, so the name of the Tao is determined before entering the Tao!And the next one is called Cizi in Confucianism, and it is called Cidaohao in Quanzhen now, and Ma Yu gave Qiu Zhiqing the Taoist name "Chonghe"!
From Chapter 42 of the "Tao Te Ching", "All things bear yin and embrace yang, and they are full of qi for peace." The general meaning of this sentence is that all things have yin and yang, and a new balance needs to be found in the yin and yang hedging...

This is probably also Ma Yu's expectation for Qiu Zhiqing. Right now, Song and Jin are confronting each other, Xixia is in decline, and the grassland is fighting... It is the time when the world is gathering and the road ahead is chaotic.

I also hope that there will be such a person in Quanzhen who can break through the heavy fog of history and lead Quanzhen out of a new world!
Of course, it's not that Ma Yu puts his hopes on Qiu Zhiqing, it's just a beautiful expectation!Now that you have started, the next step is to observe the precepts, telling you what not to do!
Qiu Zhiqing's task is to reply after listening to the training: "It is acceptable!" It means that I can accept this commandment...

There will be nothing else for him for the time being, but he does not need to return to the team, but stands behind Ma Yu.Next was Qiu Chuji's apprenticeship time, watching Yin Zhiping and Li Zhichang go through their own process just now.

When Qiu Zhiqing did it by himself just now, he only felt solemn, but when he watched them do it, he felt a kind of inheritance!
The apprenticeship ceremony ended after Quanzhen Qizi brought everyone three salutes and nine kowtows!This is also a beginning and an end, tell the patriarch, I will collect so much today, you are busy first, and I will notify you when there is good news another day!
 Collect a golden finger for the protagonist, welcome to comment and vote!
