Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 199 Black-haired Uncle, White-haired Nephew

Qingxiazi is an old Taoist who advocates "double cultivation", and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "unrestrained".After a few days of stability in Jinjiazhuangzi, the old Taoist went to visit Yuan Tiangang.

From ancient times to the present, doctors have been very popular professions, who can not suffer from three diseases and five disasters?What's more, Qingxiazi also has the special status of a magic stick?
Qingxiazi claimed to have lived for more than two Jiazi years, and was a top-notch fool.No, when he went out to visit Yuan Tiangang, the horse under his crotch was presented by Chen Rui himself.Then again, who asked Qingxiazi to pat her chest to ensure that the prescription he prescribed would allow Chen Rui to hug his son after the end of his life?

Qingxiazi was riding the steed she had driven away, with a bamboo stick in her mouth, and a pair of sneaky eyeballs on her pious face were staring straight at the eldest girl and the younger daughter-in-law.While looking at it, I sighed in my heart: Chang'an's folk customs are still civilized, but this spring is very annoying, why doesn't it get hotter soon?
The old Taoist came to Zhongnan Mountain muttering. Ever since Yuan Tiangang became popular, lay Buddhists spontaneously raised donations to renovate the mountain roads of Zhongnan Mountain. As long as the speed is not higher than [-] mph, you can go there on horseback.

Pilgrims keep entering the mountain. Although the gate of the temple has more than doubled, it is still a bit narrow.Qingxiazi followed the crowd to the door and asked the Taoist boy at the door: "Xiaodao, is Yuan Tiangang here?"

"Bold! Dare to call the patriarch by his name directly!" Taoism does not talk about the purity of the five roots of Buddhism, and there is no list of Taoism. Although they are worshiping the ancestor of Hongjun, Taoism in the world is not a family, but a competitive relationship. .Based on the above reasons, the Taoist boy at the door believed that Qingxiazi had come to smash the scene, so he was merciless in his words.

"Hey! The little Yuanzi back then has disciples?" Qingxiazi was also a person who had seen the world in his early years, and he was quite tolerant of some rudeness of ordinary people, but he didn't care, and teased: "You are not old enough. He is big, and has a bad temper. Hurry up and tell Yuan Tiangang that his uncle is here, and be careful that you will be punished for copying Taoism scriptures if you say too late."

How can Yuan Tiangang be 90 or [-] years old?With long black hair, if it wasn't for his brain oil, Jin Yu would have thought he used Head & Shoulders at the beginning!
Judging from the face alone, Xiaodao believed that the person in front of him was lying, his brows were erect, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward to teach Qingxiazi a lesson.Instead, the older Taoist beside him was steady and grabbed him, "Junior Brother, don't be reckless!" After saying that, he saluted and asked, "Dare to ask about the Chang Dharma name?"

"Poverty Qingxiazi." Qingxiazi spat out the bamboo stick in his mouth, quite Jin Yu's demeanor, he also thought this move was very handsome, so he deliberately practiced it.

"You are Master Uncle? Patriarch has been looking forward to you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to finally come." The Taoist priest was overjoyed, and quickly ordered the little Taoist boy: "What are you still doing? Please bring Master Uncle's horse into the backyard, so I can take care of it." !" In fact, he was afraid that Qingxiazi would blame his junior brother and use this to send his junior brother away.

Qingxiazi smiled slightly, could it be that he was as knowledgeable as Yuan Tiangang's disciple? "Can we go to Tongbing now?"

"How can I let Master and Uncle wait here? How about going to the tea room with my disciples to serve tea?" After the Taoist finished speaking, he quickly ordered the Taoist boy beside him to tell Yuan Tiangang the news of Qingxiazi's arrival.

"Lead the way ahead." Qingxiazi pulled out the floating dust stuck in her neck, thinking: It's better to use the method of returning from Jin to Tang, and it doesn't feel cold to pull it out and hold it in cold weather.

Yuan Tiangang's tea room generally does not allow people to enter, and the utensils used are all extremely luxurious, anyway, they are all gifts from lay Buddhists, and Yuan Tiangang feels happy to use them from the bottom of his heart.If ordinary people saw these expensive appliances, they would probably linger or be cautious, but Qingxiazi just glanced at them and figured it out!Qingxiazi's behavior made the Taoist priest who led the way look at him again. Even the dignitaries who came here, who didn't play with it and then praised it?

To say why Qingxiazi dismissed this, we have to start with his life experience, he was also the owner of the rich and powerful in the past!It's just that very few people know about it.In fact, he did not deceive Jin Yu about his age, he is indeed over 130 years old.Yuan Tiangang is well aware of these inside information.

Before the pot of water here boiled, Yuan Tiangang trotted over here, and just entered the door as a big gift.After Qingxiazi asked him to get up, Yuan Tiangang said, "Uncle Master, how are you doing all the way?" With his seniority in front of him, Yuan Tiangang didn't dare to complain that Qingxiazi kept him waiting, so he could only care for him.

Qingxiazi blushed a little, it was fine for Jinyu to see through those things, but he had no face to tell Yuan Tiangang, "It's okay."

Yuan Tiangang is still very clear about how capable his uncle is. Back then, his own master gave Qingxiazi a "monster".This evaluation does not mean that Qingxiazi has done many evils, but that he is a "monster-like existence".After so many years, my master has "flyed up", and I also have white hair and beard. Only my uncle, who still looks like a middle-aged man, has not changed since I met him!
"Master uncle has practiced well. After so many years, he is still so extraordinary and suave." Although these two words are not derogatory, they are usually used by elders to praise juniors. How can a nephew say that about his uncle?The Taoist priest, who was carrying a kettle to make tea, staggered and almost threw the pot in his hand when he heard his patriarch comment on his uncle.

"Go out, you can come here poor." Yuan Tiangang told his disciples to drive out.Others don't know it, but Yuan Tiangang still understands it very well. My uncle likes others to praise him.Sure enough, Qingxiazi smiled like a daisy when she heard Yuan Tiangang's evaluation of herself.

"Your mouth is still so sweet, the old man likes it, haha!" Qingxiazi stopped calling Yuan Tiangang "Little Yuanzi", facing an old man who looked older than himself, and called him "Little Yuanzi", Qingxiazi felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

"That's the teacher's uncle taught well." Yuan Tiangang recalled the past years, he couldn't bear to look back!In the past, if I hadn’t been happy with myself as a master uncle, I would have copied the Taoist scriptures from the beginning to the end, not many times, but I couldn’t stand the development of Taoism for so many years, how many scriptures survived?Although I also like to do this now, it doesn't mean that I like to be punished.

"Do you still remember those old sesame seeds and rotten millet?" The brothers of the same age went away one by one, and only Yuan Tiangang was left in the apprenticeship. Qingxiazi felt sorry for each other at this time, so Yuan Tiangang blamed himself This uncle is too ruthless, I don't take it to heart, just laugh it off.

"Remember, how can I forget?" Yuan Tiangang poured tea for Qingxiazi, "When I was young, I often scolded you behind my back, but now I think about it, without your teachings back then, there would be no Tiangang Today's achievement." At the end, Yuan Tiangang was full of gratitude.

"Stop talking about these nasty things, you're not a woman." Qing Xiazi laughed at Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang smiled, and made a gesture of invitation, "Uncle, please taste this tea. Now all the dignitaries around Chang'an are drinking it, and the taste is better than the one in the south."

"Oh?" Qingxiazi was noncommittal, picked it up, tasted it, and asked, "But Jin returned to Tang Zhuangzi to give birth?"

"Hmm. Uncle Shi once drank it?" Yuan Tiangang was a little surprised. The supply of this tea was in short supply, and it was not for takeaway. It was given to him by Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng.

"I've drank it, but it doesn't taste as good as these." Qingxiazi replied stroking his beard.

"In this case, these nephew tea masters will respect the uncle." Yuan Tiangang pointed to an exquisite tea bucket next to him and said, "The nephew has already bought a small courtyard for the uncle in the back, and I hope the uncle will not dislike it. My nephew should also do his part in filial piety."

"Don't be so troublesome, Pindao has already lived in Jin's Zhuangzi. In the words of that boy Gui Tang, you get used to living here, and Pindao won't move here." Qingxiazi waved his hand in style. , expressing that he does not intend to live in a Taoist temple, so that Yuan Tiangang will not be so bothered.

"How can I do that? Nephew, don't worry about outsiders serving you!" Yuan Tiangang said anxiously.

"There's nothing to worry about." Qingxiazi didn't take it seriously, "The food in Jinjiazhuangzi is very good, quite suitable for the poor."

"Guitang's craftsmanship is unrivaled, and the imperial cooks are prepared by him himself, but you can't do without someone around you." Hearing what Qingxiazi said, Yuan Tiangang was at a loss. False, but that skill really can't compare with the people trained by Jin Yu.

"The impoverished way is that there are too many people. If you need someone to order you, you have already accepted your disciples." Qingxiazi still shook her head, cutting off Yuan Tiangang's thoughts of placing people beside her. How to pick up girls?Isn't this breaking the root of my dual cultivation?
"Then```Okay." Seeing his uncle's attitude is so firm, Yuan Tiangang could only nod in agreement, but he thought about turning around and asking Jin Yu to take good care of his uncle.

"That's about the same. Seeing how clever you are today, the poor will not punish you for copying scriptures." Qingxiazi said happily.

Yuan Tiangang has always been ignorant of his uncle, because he doesn't play cards according to the routine!Yuan Tiangang did not forget the fundamentals of the discussion with his uncle, and asked: "Since my uncle has already lived in Jinjiazhuangzi, have you found any clues?"

"God's will is unpredictable, how can ordinary people like me see through it?" Qing Xiazi shook his head and said, "But, the poor Taoist has figured out a little bit, and the revival of our Taoism depends on that boy Tang."

"ZTE? Is it better than it is now?" Yuan Tiangang couldn't turn his head around for a while. It's not bad here. People come and go. It's already much better than before. Could it be even better?
"Poverty Dao refers to the entire Taoist school, not your Taoist temple!" Qing Xiazi glared at Yuan Tiangang and said.

"Could it be that uncle wants to accept Jin and return to Tang as his disciple?" Yuan Tiangang didn't think about the whole Taoism, but since Jin Yu is related to the revival of Taoism, shouldn't he also be a Taoist priest?
"Pimpedao really thinks, who knows that kid is not up to the mark!" Qingxiazi was a little angry, and the movement of stroking his beard was a little heavier. As a result, `````` pulled off a beard, and Qingxiazi gritted his teeth in pain Grinning, of course this account is also on Jin Yu's head, who let him make him angry?
