Chapter 423 Yongning Village (3)
"Mingzhen Immortal Master?" Pu Zixuan was stunned. It seemed that in the memories of these descendants of the Lao family, there was indeed an expert who deserves to be remembered.
Lao Yunchang nodded softly and said sadly: "Do you know why our village is called 'Yongning Village'?"
Pu Zixuan thought kindly: "Although I don't know the exact origin, I think it must be from the past of our descendants of the Lao family? If you don't mind, can the village chief explain that history to us?"
"No," Lao Yunchang responded calmly, and couldn't help but feel a little confused, "I just don't know, what is the purpose of you want to understand the history of our Lao family?"
Pu Zixuan did not hide anything at all and said sincerely: "It's no big deal, just because I am a purifier and have become enemies with many monsters for some reasons. Only then did I want to improve my strength to the realm of formlessness as soon as possible. I wonder if the village chief can enlighten me for a while?"
Lao Yunchang smiled relaxedly and said, "Haha, although I am not a purifier, this problem is simple. As long as you find a sufficient amount of Tai Sui, eat it in the Jiazi year or the next period, or eat crops grown on the land buried with Tai Sui for a long time, your purification power can naturally be greatly improved. This is the case with our ancestor Mingzhen Immortal Master."
Pu Zixuan sighed: "We also understand this point. Unfortunately, the two Tai Sui in Pujiazhuang and Laoshan are no longer in the past, so we have to settle for the second best and want to understand the key points through other passages."
"Is that? The Laoshan area is no longer in place now..." Lao Yunchang shook his head regretfully and said, "In this way, I am not a purifying messenger. There is no other clan member who has awakened and purified the power of others after the Mingzhen Immortal Master. If you want to ask about the key points of the formless realm, you are really clueless."
After hearing this, Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing looked at each other and Chen Shuqing said silently: "It seems that there is only one 'immortal' in the "Laoshan Taoist Priest" written by the gentleman, and there has been no successor for more than a hundred years..."
Pu Zixuan was disappointed, but after finally finding this place, he was reluctant to give up, so he tried to ask: "Anyway, we still hope to understand the history of the Lao family. If the village chief was willing to tell us, maybe I could find the answer myself."
Lao Yunchang looked at the young man in front of him carefully. Seeing that his eyes were sincere, he smiled and said, "Well, since you two have been to Laoshan and have unraveled the secrets that have always troubled our tribe, I will tell you all the things I know... It's a long story. Laoshan was called "Laoshan" two years ago. Although it was pronounced the same, it did not have the word "Lao" next to the character "Shan". Before Xu Fu went to sea, many indigenous people with various surnames lived in
There, they rarely interacted with the outside world and protected the Laoshan home, and later, before Xu Fu went to sea from Laoshan, he buried a piece of Tai Sui in Laoshan and left his own descendants. Therefore, in order to strengthen management, the court gave the natives living there and the descendants of Xu Fu to the surname Lao. Nowadays, we can no longer tell who is the natives and who is the descendants of Xu Fu. Of course, this does not hinder our sense of identity with each other."
Hearing this, Pu Zixuan looked at Chen Shuqing in surprise and exclaimed: "It turns out that many of the descendants of Laoshan are descendants of Xu Fu! Then, Xu Fu buried that piece of Tai Sui to hide his descendants' blood."
Lao Yunchang said: "Yes, Xu Fu himself is a purifier, and the chance of awakening the power of purification among his descendants will be much higher than that of ordinary people. In the past two thousand years, we do not know how many people have awakened among the descendants of the Lao family, but Ming Zhen Immortal Master is the closest to now and the one who is most remembered by us."
Pu Zixuan thought for a while and said, "'Mingzhen Immortal Master' looks like a Taoist name. Is he a Taoist priest?"
"Yes, Mingzhen Immortal Master was born in the 17th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the first year of Shunzhi, and passed away in the 7th year of Yongzheng at the age of 85. He joined the Laoshan Sect during his lifetime. This Laoshan Sect is a branch of the Quanzhen Long Sect. His previous Taoist name was Mingzhen Taoist. After his death, we respectfully called him Mingzhen Immortal Master in order to commemorate him."
Chen Shuqing sighed: "So, Master Mingzhen is four years younger than Mr. Pu Songling. After his husband passed away, he lived another fourteen years. Although the age of eighty-five is enough to be considered old, it is still within the normal life span of humans, which shows that Master Mingzhen has not achieved immortality through Tai Sui in Jiazi year."
"Haha, Miss Chen even knows that Tai Sui in Jiazi year can make people immortal..." Lao Yunchang was a little shocked by Chen Shuqing's words, and then nodded and said, "That's true. Our Lao family, since the day Xu Fu went to sea, learned that Xu Fu had buried a piece of Tai Sui somewhere in Laoshan, but never knew the exact location, so they could not find that piece of Tai Sui. At the same time, we all know that eating Tai Sui in Jiazi year can make people immortal, but our tribe members have never had the idea of Tai Sui in Laoshan in Jiazi year. This is a respect for our ancestors. In addition, except for some people who leaked the news, we never talked about this point to outsiders. After all, history has repeatedly proved that the root of chaos in the world lies in the growing selfish desires of people's hearts. Therefore, please keep this law secret and ask."
Chen Shuqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, village chief, I have lived with Mr. Pu Songling for twenty years, but he has never mentioned the Tai Sui to me, which shows that he does not know the secrets of Pujiazhuang and Laoshan Tai Sui..."
It was a relaxed conversation, but Lao Yunchang stared at Chen Shuqing with his eyes widened and said, "You have lived with Pu Songling for twenty years? How old are you... how old are you?"
"Oh, I'm saying it's a joke, look at my mouth!" Chen Shuqing then realized his mistake, but the water that was poured out of the words he said could no longer be taken back, so he had to slap himself in the face to relieve the tension. "Forget it, I'd better be honest. I'm a little fox demon picked up by Pu Songling. I'm already 170 years old this year... But don't worry, village chief, I have never hurt any kind humans over the years. On the contrary, when we come from Yunnan, every time I go to a province, I've been injured by a half-demon identity, including Pu Zixuan, who has also hit me. Shandong is the only province that is very 'friendly' to me. I hope the village chief must not let my nightmare continue..."
After saying that, Chen Shuqing deliberately stuck out his tongue at Lao Yunchang to express his friendliness.
Lao Yunchang was a soft-hearted person after all, just as he was extremely doting for his son. Therefore, after listening to Chen Shuqing's explanation, he did not react much. He just took a deep breath to adjust his emotions, and then replied: "So that's it, then I will continue to talk. Although Mr. Liu Quan and Immortal Master Mingzhen were both great purifiers, according to the memories of the immortal master in his later years, he must have seen Mr. Liu Quan when he was young, but he did not leave a deep impression. Later, we checked the information of Mr. Liu Quan and found out that Mr. Liu Quan had traveled to Laoshan in the 17th year of Kangxi, which was the only time he came to Laoshan in his life. But at that time,
He was only 32 years old, just an ordinary teacher, without much fame, and should not have awakened the power of purification. At that time, the 28-year-old immortal master Mingzhen was already the only purifier of the Taoist priest of the Laoshan Sect. Therefore, the immortal master did not have a deep impression of the lay Buddhist Liuquan, but the lay Buddhist Liuquan was deeply shocked by the "Divine Power" of the immortal master. Therefore, in the article "Laoshan Taoist priest", he wrote the legend of the existence of the "Immortals" on Laoshan Mountain. It was precisely because the two lacked direct communication that the immortal master knew that Xu Fu still buried a piece of Tai Sui in Hongshan Town, but it was absolutely impossible to tell Liuquan the legend of Tai Sui to the lay Buddhist Pujiazhuang."
"Haha, so that's how it is..." Chen Shuqing immediately became enlightened and joked, "The two purifying messengers nourished by the two Tai Sui buried by Xu Fu actually met directly, but passed by regretfully. Alas, it's no wonder that Master Mingzhen, if you want to blame him, it's too late to become famous, haha."
Lao Yunchang smiled and said, "But that's good. If one person knows the secret of Tai Sui, the world will be less dangerous. Anyway, Mr. Liu Quan finally created a miracle on earth, which is enough."
Pu Zixuan nodded and asked again: "So, what happened in Laoshan in the era of Mingzhen Immortal Master?"
