Chapter 116: The Cangwa is clear and turbid, and the robe is in the right way (Part 1)

Another reason why I won easily today is the breakthrough of my realm. This change just happened in the early morning. I realized the realm of vacuum in my practice, and my cultivation was improved in subtle influence. Needless to say, Sheng Zeming, I thought that Sheng Zedong was at least a few days ago, and Zeping would not be as relaxed as today. Do you know, what is my feeling now? Confidence, and ease I have never experienced before.

A huge five-color rock appeared in front of me. One side of the rock was flattened, with three large seal characters "Zhongzheng Peak" engraved on it. Zeren stopped under the five-color rock and signaled to me: "Uncle Master, this is the gate of Zhongzheng Peak. If you turn this stone, you can see the way up the mountain. Without permission, ordinary disciples are not allowed to enter here, and Zeren can only send you here. Please walk up the mountain alone, and you are not allowed to fly here... The master of the sect is waiting for you in the hall."

"I understand, thank you for escorting all the way. Thank you for your hard work!" Zeren told me that you should not fly here. He looked at me with a high glance. I still can't fly at all.

Farewell to Zeren, I turned over the five-colored huge stones, and one day, a stone steps more than three meters wide were winding up. The stone steps were all paved with five-colored stones. The mountains were steep, and each stone steps were also very high and steep, and upwards were like a five-colored dragon that could not see the end. The tall trees on the top of my head covered the sky and the sun, with strange flowers and plants on both sides, and many rare medicinal materials grew in the middle. There was no one around, and my footsteps were very fast, and I was walking like flying. I walked for half an hour.

At the end of the long steps, there is a translucent golden stone yard with three big words "Chuitianmen" written on the stone yard. I have never seen Huangshijiu, but I have never seen such a large piece of yellow stone, and I could not even imagine it. Yellowshijiu with such pure material is often used to make seal seal stamps. A small piece of palm size is valuable, even more than a weight of gold. The style of Zhengyimen is really extraordinary, and even this stone yard is a treasure on earth.

When I walked to the stone yard, I suddenly realized that I was facing a wide square. Surrounded by the mountains, there was a football field size. There were two rows of wing-style buildings on both sides of the square, with flying eaves and corridors at the front of the building. Through the square, I faced the peak of Zhongzheng Peak like a green screen, and a hall below the top of the peak. The tops of the three buildings were covered with bright yellow glazed tiles, shining brightly in the sun. I saw a faint golden light shining on the top of the peak far below the mountain. It turned out that it was emitted from here. I think this square should be the place where the sect conference was held?

I walked through the square and came to the front of the main hall. The main entrance of the main hall was open. I could see the statue of Master Zhengyi worshipped on the altar in the middle. I had never seen Master Zhengyi, how could I recognize his statue? It was very simple. Zhengyi and the three treasures were all on the statue. It was a long-bearded Taoist priest with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, with a charming appearance, and a vaguely thirty-year-old face. A four-inch-long sword-shaped hairpin was inserted in the bun of the statue. Needless to ask, it represents the Thunder God Sword. The right hand was back behind, and the left hand was slanted with a black Ruyi about a foot long in front of him, which was exactly the same as the real black Ruyi. In the middle of his chest, there was a mirror hanging, round and half a foot square, which should be the Qingming Mirror. What I could see was the mirror on the front, and I wonder what the pattern on the back was?

Shouzheng stood in front of the incense table table with his back to me, burning incense to the ancestor. How did I know that he was Shouzheng? Because I have seen this back. He had long silver hair, his hairpin was like the Thunder God Sword. He was wearing a green sermon robe, and there was a golden whisk on the incense table on his right. Shouzheng should have heard that I had arrived outside the door. After he finished putting incense, he laughed and said, "Ono, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time." As he said that, he turned around--

There was a large white round patch in the middle of his Taoist robe, with the size and position of Master Zhengyi, just like the Qingming Mirror on his chest. Why did he call me Ono? This is what my parents, elders and the closest Zi Ying would call me! I was stunned when I heard his voice, and then I saw his kind and familiar face.

According to the etiquette, I should bow my hand and bow deeply at this time, saying, "My younger brother Ishino pays homage to Shouzheng Zhenren." However, I opened my mouth and said half a sentence: "Grandpa Jin, why, why is it you..."

Shouzheng Zhenren is indeed a person I am very familiar with. He watched me grow up. It can be said that if it weren't for him, it would be difficult for me to grow up safely and healthily. The old Chinese medicine doctor in Shizhu Village where I lived since childhood, Grandpa Jin, the old Chinese medicine doctor in the village, is the contemporary leader of Zhengyi, the legendary Shuzheng Zhenren, the number one in the world of cultivation! In an instant, the past came to my mind, and beyond expectation, everything was reasonable. Besides him, who else could cleanse my muscles and marrow for me, and even I didn't realize it myself? Grandpa Jin sealed my natural superpower with a golden needle. When Feng Junzi unintentionally untie it, he also ignored other abnormalities in my body, because this situation is rare in the world!

Grandpa Jin often goes to the mountains to collect herbs, and it takes a long time to go to Zhengyi. It is said that Shouzheng Zhenren often goes to seclusion and often disappears, and that is when he returns to Shizhu Village. Before I went to school, Grandpa Jin taught me to read and write. It is natural for Shouzheng to say that I have a relationship with him as a master and apprentice. Shouzheng Zhenren knows me very well, cares about me very much, and loves me very much. If he is Grandpa Jin, everything will be easy to explain. My relationship with Grandpa Jin has always been the same as my relatives. Grandpa Jin is Shuzheng and has always cared for me like this, but he has not taught me how to practice the Tao. The Feng Junzi I met when I became an adult accidentally became my alchemy master. If this kind of thing is heard by others, I may think it is too wonderful.

Grandpa Jin saw my reaction and seemed to be expecting it. He smiled and walked over and patted my shoulder: "We should not talk about common words in this ancestor's palace. Since you have already arrived, burn incense and worship in front of the statue of Zhengyi's ancestor... and then come out with me."

I respectfully worshiped Master Zhengyi, and I followed Grandpa Jin. No, Shouzheng Zhenren walked out of the hall and came to the eaves corridor on the side of the square. There were two short chairs of fragrant sandalwood, and two white jade cups on the small table in the middle filled with spring water. Shouzheng asked me to sit down and handed me a glass of water. Take a sip, it was as cool as nectar, making people feel refreshed.

"Shouzheng - Grandpa - Real Person - Senior - I stuttered a little, I don't know what to call it appropriately.

Shouzheng smiled: "You are not a disciple of Zhengyi now, just call me Grandpa Jin."

"Grandpa Jin, I have known you since I was a child. I really didn't expect that you are the number one master in the world of cultivation today."

Shouzheng: "The four words "The No. 1 Master" are just a false reputation obtained by Zhengyi. I dare not take it! The world is so great that the dragon and tiger are hidden above me may not be known to everyone... Ono, you must be very surprised, why did your Grandpa Jin transform into a real person in Shuzheng?"

"I'm really curious, waiting for Grandpa Jin to tell me."

Grandpa Jin took a sip of water and looked at the mountains in the distance and said: "I was born in a scholarly family. I grew up reading sages when I was young. I will say that when I was 18 years old, I took the provincial examination and passed the imperial examination during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Unfortunately, I was born in troubled times and had no way to repay me. Seeing that the world was confused, I gave up the idea of ​​passing the imperial examination. What is the old saying? I have taught you."

"The water of Canglang is clear, so that I can wash my tassels; the water of Canglang is turbid, so that I can wash my feet. - What you explain to me is that a gentleman will be in a state of affairs, and when he encounters governance, he will be in danger; when he is prosperous, he will help the world, and when he is poor, he will be safe. I was young at that time and didn't understand it very much, but now I understand a little."

Grandpa Jin: "It's hard for you to remember so clearly. I just thought so. There is another old saying that goes, "If you don't be a good minister, you will be a good doctor." If you can't cure people's livelihood, you will treat all the sick people. So I practice medicine in the countryside and have the ambition to save the world. Unfortunately, when I was twenty years old, my home was destroyed by the turmoil, and I was the only one in my family who was rescued by the masters who passed by, and I was lucky enough to escape."

"What kind of unrest? The foreign devils are calling?"

Grandpa Jin: "No, not those times, but refugees robbed."

"Disin?"

Grandpa Jin: "It is the rebel army mentioned in your school textbook.... The master who saved me asked me: 'If you practice medicine for a lifetime, will there be as many people as you have seen in one day?' I shook my head. He asked me again: 'What is the way of heaven?' I suddenly realized something and knelt down to ask for advice. He said to me: 'I see that your qualifications, understandings, and temperament are the best choices. It is better to follow me to practice in the fairy mountains in the world.' So I followed him, that is, my master came to the main school. This practice has been one hundred and eight years today."

"One hundred and eight years old? You are 128 years old this year! Then, why did you become Grandpa Jin from Shizhu Village again?"

Grandpa Jin: "Zhengyi Sanshan is a cave in the world, not a fairy world in heaven. The disciples of Zhengyi come from the world, and of course they have to walk in the world. Forty years ago, the epidemic in Wucheng was prevalent. I went down the mountain to practice medicine and settled in Shizhu Village as a wanderer. From then on, when the mountains were boring, I went to the world to walk. If not, how could I know what the world is? How could I know you?...If I don't talk about my old things, I'd better talk about it. Is it a lot that you have been blocked by others all the way?"

I smiled: "It seems that your disciples want to test me."

Grandpa Jin: "You misunderstood. They are not taking the initiative to block your way, but I mean. I am actually not testing you, but testing them, and even testing their master."

After hearing this, I finally understood completely. I was the guest that Shouzheng was waiting for. How could those juniors of Zedong be so bold to block my way? It turned out that Shouzheng himself signaled him. I looked at him without saying anything.

Grandpa Jin continued to ask, "You must be a little puzzled. Why do I do this? Have you heard of the folk legends that Kangxi passed the throne to Yongzheng?"

"There is a saying that Kangxi especially liked his grandson Hongli, who later Qianlong. He passed the throne to Yongzheng, and also implied that Yongzheng would be in Qianlong in the future. This is called passing on his son because of his grandson."

Grandpa Jin: "Yes, I mean this legend. The world has been turbulent for more than a hundred years. Now that I have a little stability, Zhengyi Sect has also spread out in my hands. With more disciples, it is inevitable that the quality is different. He Chen, my disciple, made a big mistake, and he has trained the kind of disobedience of Zezhong, and he has made a mistake... This time you enter Zhengyi Sanshan, I intend to let Hefeng, Hexi and Heguang condemn the most proud disciples of his disciples to ask you for advice, and also examine their descriptions and behaviors, and make the future plans of Zhengyi Sect. What do you think of those three people?"

Shouzheng's intention is very clear. This is a disciple exam for the master. Because no matter who he passes the position of the leader to in the future, the next leader will definitely pass the leader to the most proud disciple under the sect. He has this idea, and Zeren, who accompanied me, guessed it and once reminded me tactfully. This is really hard to say. I thought about it and replied: "Zedong, although Zeping has different temperaments, he has the ability and means of a leader in time. However, these two people have biased personalities. Zedong is big but may not be able to tolerate dissidents. Zeping's mind is deep and angular but is too smooth, and needs to practice more. At that time, this was just my one-sided statement, and you don't have to take it too seriously."

Grandpa Jin: "You don't mention Zeming alone. I also know that my disciple and Guang have a good realm, but they are too evading the world and are not good at inheriting Taoism. So, in your opinion, how about the comparison between Zedong and Zeping? There are only you and me on Zhongzheng Peak, so what does it matter but you can say." Shouzheng Zhenren is really strange today. How about the people under Zhengyi's sect? He himself should know much more than me, an outsider, and he insists on saying one or two. If someone asked me, I really don't want to talk too much, but he is Grandpa Jin, so I can't answer seriously.

"Actually, I have to see that there is another person above the disciples of the Ze generation I have seen. He is Zeren who sent me all the way."

Grandpa Jin laughed: "Ze Ren? It's Ze Ren who once knocked you away with one hand? Your vision is indeed good! It's my point to let Ze Ren replace him and Chen as the leader of Qi Yunguanguan... I won't talk about them anymore, talk about you, your temperament is selfless and you are not biased when commenting on others. I ask you, if you join the Zhengyi Sect and become my closed disciple, you will be much younger and have a high level of cultivation. Is it more appropriate to inherit the Zhengyi Sect's legacy?"
