Immortality is above

Chapter 143 Chapter 142: First Lesson
Without any publicity, the news that Chen Liubai was going to give his first class to the Taoist Academy was like a big stone dropped into a well, causing a huge splash of water, both bright and dark, attracting pairs of eyes to peek and watch.

Chen Liubai suddenly realized that he still underestimated the significance of the existence of the Taoist Academy: for most low-level casual cultivators, being able to enter the academy to practice is definitely a rare opportunity to make progress.

Of course, according to relevant regulations, the Taoist Temple only recruits young people under the age of fifteen, and those who are over the age are not included in this category.

But the focus of the casual cultivators is not on themselves, but on the future of their descendants.

This is the most important.

A person lives only one lifetime, and the vegetation lasts only one autumn. The Taoism and Dharma he has learned are superficial, which does not help much in improving longevity. Being able to live over a hundred years is already a long life.

After all, life itself is a kind of hardship, with all kinds of diseases and accidents.

There are many factors of belief that enable people to persist in hard work, one of which is "inheritance."

Bloodline inheritance, mantle inheritance...

Many people are in difficult situations and can no longer see the future, but they hope that their children and grandchildren can go out and have a future.

If you set a great goal and want to achieve it, you are bound to have a lot of hardships and it will be difficult to achieve it.

To this extent, it has become a symbol of some kind.

Today, the Taoist temple has a brand new look and is clean and tidy. In the main hall, there are also three statues of emperors and gods enshrined. Their appearance is almost the same as that of the Ecclesiastical Office.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but remember that in another world of time and space, there were five large Chinese characters inscribed on the most conspicuous positions of each unit.

This is the purpose and creed of the Taoist court when it was founded, and it can be said to be a household saying.

It is precisely because of this that their statues of gods exist widely in various places, regardless of Xuanmen, side sects, or sects. They will be enshrined wherever there are monks.

Perhaps, the rumors circulating in the world really are the real answer: the three emperors have all achieved enlightenment and transcendence, transcending the entire world...

This hope is just a thought, extremely strong.

Chen Liubai was very interested in this phenomenon, but he couldn't understand it.

On the contrary, it is precisely because we know that it is impossible for the three emperors to appear, so we can pray in front of their statues without so many taboos.

Looking at the twelve big characters, Chen Liubai felt a lot in his heart. He couldn't help but think about those patriarchs and masters who jointly founded the Taoist court in the past. How ambitious and high-spirited they must be?
It's a pity that such words are almost equivalent to "ambition".

Our own limitations and external resistance are layer upon layer, like a net, tightly bound. It makes it difficult to struggle away.

One thing is certain, the path they take is definitely not the way of God.

However, the rise of the bottom is easier said than done?

Burning incense, offering sacrifices, and kneeling down to worship are already engraved in the bones of the habitual form, and it is not because they want them to appear and bless them.

The same is true for the dharma rhyme shrouded above the statue, which is full of that elusive and mysterious meaning.

On a wall behind the statue, there is a line of large characters neatly written on it:
"Open the door widely, spread the Dharma to the world, and everyone will be like a dragon!"

Judging from the condition of Gaohua City Taoist Temple, even if it cannot be called abandoned, it has been closed for a long time, and has even been occupied by other creatures, so it is close to stealing its place.

I remember when Chen Liubai was selected by a Taoist man on the street, he stood out, and suddenly stood out from the crowd. He was definitely called the "Chosen One".

So, how do you maintain the spirituality of these three emperors and gods?

……

That is also a great ambition!

……

"My lord, my lord, are you okay?"

A soft call came from Gu Yuan, who was standing beside him. He is the steward responsible for the daily affairs of the Taoist temple. When Chen Liubai comes to give lectures, he naturally has to accompany him and wait for instructions.

After all, Chen Liubai was not an ordinary Taoist master, but an instructor.

Gu Yuan saw the Master of Instruction standing in the hall in a daze, with a strange expression. He didn't want to disturb him, but time passed and classes were about to start.

I felt strange in my heart. With Chen Liubai's background, whether it was facing the statue of the emperor or the writing on the wall, it was already commonplace. How could he be distracted?
In fact, Chen Liubai was just in a daze for a moment. He quickly calmed down and said calmly: "Go and open the door and let the students come in to listen to the class."

Gu Yuan scratched his face: "Sir, there is a problem. There are a large number of students in this batch, and the Taoist Academy may not be able to accommodate so many people."

"Oh, then I'll go take a look."

Chen Liubai walked out and saw the darkness outside the door. They were all young people, all looking over at him, all focused on him.

Although there were many people, everyone was in order and arranged neatly, and there was no loud noise or anything.

During the process of reopening the Taoist temple, Chen Liubai was already prepared for someone to interfere and cause trouble, but so far, it has gone smoothly and nothing has happened.

The main reason was that his relationship with Mo Xuanyi was spied on.

With such a relationship, people in Gaohua City have to think carefully about what they want to do.

Although the side sect monks are known for their ferocity, they are by no means stupid.

Of course, the current situation seems stable, but whether there is an undercurrent surging behind the scenes is another matter.

However, it cannot be taken lightly.

Looking at the young and immature faces, Chen Liubai felt the hope and vitality, as well as some complex emotions hidden in them.

After becoming a god, one's observation and perception of others become more and more acute. No wonder it is said that when cultivation reaches a high level, one can predict the future and seek advantages and avoid disasters.

There were too many people coming to class today and there was no room for them to sit indoors. Chen Liubai pondered for a moment and simply let them enter the courtyard and use this place as a classroom to start the lecture directly.

Even so, there were still many people who couldn't get in, so they found something to put their feet on and leaned on the courtyard wall to listen to the lecture.

It looked like a row of heads, like a flock of birds.

A bird landed on the roof of the Taoist temple. Its feathers were dark and it turned out to be an ominous crow. It seemed that it was also here to listen to the class, standing on it, looking attentive.

As long as they were not making trouble, Chen Liubai ignored them, sat on the chair that Gu Yuan moved out, made a simple opening statement, and then started speaking.

Of course, there will be no lectures on Taoism and magic techniques in the first class. Moreover, these young students are basically in the first stage of spiritual practice. What they say seems to be profound, and they cannot understand or learn anything.

Therefore, Chen Liubai first started by invigorating Qi and blood and opening up the regular and strange meridians.

These contents are basic and may sound ordinary, without much distinction.

Gradually, some young students showed impatient looks on their faces; after a while, some students slipped away quietly, not for convenience, but never to return.

The originally crowded courtyard gradually became more spacious and spacious, but the number of people hanging on the courtyard wall did not decrease.

But Chen Liubai didn't mean to call them in to fill the empty seats. He still taught his class, word for word, and his words were precise.

Gu Yuan, who was watching the scene from the side, had a calm expression on his face: This kind of class was not standardized. Chen Liubai seemed indifferent to the students slipping away.

If this matter spreads, it will definitely damage his face.

Is it possible that he doesn't care at all?

Or maybe he has already seen through that the excitement of the opening of the Taoist Academy today is just a false appearance, and many of the students are not really here to listen to the lectures?
