Chapter 1: See the old fairy of Dragon Temple

Shuanglong Mountain is located in the mountainous area of ​​central Hexi Province. The mountains are winding around the east and west for more than ten kilometers. From a distance, they look like two giant dragons lying on the head.miaobige.com. The mountains to the east are covered with pine trees, while the mountains to the west are covered with cypress trees, so it is also known as Pine and Cypress Mountain.

The pines and cypresses on the mountain are clearly divided into different parts. When a mountain wind blows, I often hear the sound of pine waves, like the sound of killing in the iron horses. Someone who is good at observing Feng Shui said: In the future, there will be generals and ministers.

The villagers from the villages at the foot of Shuanglong Mountain are discussing something these days. Liu Shusheng, the grandson who lives in Jianlong Temple, who is known as the old god, was admitted to Yanjing University. He heard that he was still the top scorer in the college entrance examination.

A top scorer in the college entrance examination was released, which was an amazing event in the 1980s. This incident alarmed the parents of Shuangshan County. After hearing this, the county magistrate also came to express his condolences and sent 200 yuan to congratulate him. The folk customs in the mountains were simple, and there were endless congratulations. Xiaoxiaoxing Long Temple was very lively for a while.

Shuanglong Temple is said to have been built during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. Legend has it that Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin once fought here. After defeating the enemy, he saw two golden dragons coming to worship and helped them attack the enemy in a storm, which made Emperor Taizong turn the defeat into victory. After ascending the throne, he ordered the construction of a temple to worship. After several wars, most of the buildings were decadent, and only one side hall could be preserved.

The old god's face was like a baby's white beard and his chest was hanging down, and his white eyebrows were passing by, no one knew his real age. The old man in the village said that he had seen the old god when he was a child, and he still looked like he was the same after decades. He was smart in his ears and eyes, and walked on the mountain roads as fast as flying, without changing at all.

The old god is kind to others without desires and desires, has excellent medical skills, and has countless herbs. He never collects money when practicing medicine. He only puts a willow basket in front of the door on the ninth day of the ninth month of the year, allowing the doctor to do whatever he wants. He never asks how many or whether there is or not, and is deeply loved by all the villagers.

His grandson was rescued from a willow tree fork while collecting herbs in the mountains. He didn't know whose surname was, who was his parents. Since he got it from the willow tree, let's call him Willow tree. But the old god still can't understand how a child under one year old got to such a tall tree?

As night fell, the villagers who came to congratulate him dispersed one by one. The old god said to Liu Shusheng, who was chopping firewood in the backyard: "Child, don't chop you, you will leave tomorrow, take a break."

When Liu Shusheng saw his grandfather's white beard, he felt a sense of sorrow that he burst into his heart: "Grandpa, I don't want to go to school anymore. You are old, and I want to serve you at home."

The old fairy laughed: "Why, look, grandpa can't move? Tell you the silly boy, grandpa still wants to watch you hold your grandson. When you enter the house, grandpa has something to say to you." As he said that, he entered the house, flew over and took out a small wooden box from the beam of the house, and took out a thin booklet. The old fairy looked at Liu Shusheng affectionately and said: "Child, it has been sixteen years since I brought you back from the willow tree. You have grown up now, and you have to tell you some things."

"Do you know why, since you were very young, in addition to asking you to practice martial arts, I also asked you to practice that strange internal skills every morning?"

"The grandson is stupid, please tell me."

After taking a sip of tea, the old god slowly said, "It's just to open your eyes to the sky,"

"Open the eyes of the sky?"

"Yes, open the eyes of the sky, child, you have an odd sight on your feet. There are four red moles on the sole of your left foot and three red moles on the sole of your right foot. This is the seven stars on the feet. It is precious and it is definitely a general and a minister in the future. You are kind-hearted and kind-hearted. You will definitely be a good official in the future and benefit the people. However, the evil career of the government is inevitable to be harmed by villains. You must be careful. Therefore, when you were very young, I used medicinal materials to cultivate you and strengthen your foundation and teach you how to practice your internal skills. It is to open the eyes of the sky. Now you have achieved something, and you are only one step away from the last level to achieve what you want."

Liu Shusheng is also a prospective college student no matter what. He has received many years of modern education and is skeptical about his grandfather's words. However, based on his understanding and admiration for his grandfather, he thought that his grandfather would not talk nonsense, but he didn't know how to answer his grandfather, and he fell into deep thought for a while.

When the old god saw his grandson speechless, he went to the kitchen to bring food, "Come on, Shusheng, today the villagers brought a lot of delicious food. Let's have a meal first, wait and listen to me tell you carefully. Go to the ground of the persimmon tree to dig out a jar of honey wine I brewed, and celebrate it today."

Liu Shusheng jumped up happily when he heard this. Grandpa’s honey wine was a good thing, so he didn’t take it out easily. The last time he drank it was when Grandpa Shi celebrated his 99th birthday last year. When he went to celebrate his birthday with his grandfather, he only drank one cup. Grandpa was generous today, which was rare.

The dining table was filled with pheasants, bacon, and Shusheng went to make a daylily stall egg and added a mountain mushroom soup. Although it was simple, it was much more luxurious than usual.

When I opened the wine jar, I felt the fragrance of the wine was refreshed. I saw that the wine was amber color, and I could turn it into silk with chopsticks. Shusheng first poured a cup for his grandfather, poured it for himself, and then raised his glass with both hands and said respectfully to his grandfather: "Grandpa, you raised me since childhood and taught me martial arts. I really couldn't bear to leave you. Your great kindness and great grandson really didn't know how to repay it. At this time, I could only respect each other with wine, wishing my grandfather good health and longevity." As he said that, tears were like a spring, and he burst into tears.

"Haha..." The old fairy laughed: "How did you do this kind of child today? Where did you usually have heroic spirit? Come and drink wine and eat vegetables." As he said, he picked up the wine glass and drank it with his beloved grandson. When he saw Shusheng, he hurriedly said: "Shuer, you can't drink it anymore." Seeing Shusheng's confused look on his face, he said, "The secret recipe for this wine was handed down by my ancestor. It was made of honey from a hundred flowers and precious medicinal materials with winter snow water. It is extremely yang. People should not drink it without Jiazi's longevity. Although this wine cannot be resurrected, it can cure all diseases and prolong life. Even grandpa, I can only drink three cups at a time. Drinking more will cause bleeding and death from seven orifices. Because your body is different from others, it is okay to drink a small amount. Remember."

Liu Shusheng has been with his grandfather since he was a child. He has never heard his grandfather talk about his own past. Even his grandfather’s age is always a mystery. Seeing that today, Grandpa asked happily: “Grandpa, what sect are we? Who is your ancestor? How old are you this year?” “Child, really speaking, you are not from our sect. Take that small wooden box over and tell you all today.”

I saw the old god take the wooden box and take out a small sign that looks like iron but not iron or wood from it. He respectfully placed it under the Buddha's niche, lit three incense sticks, and said loudly: "The ancestor is here, and the disciples live up to their mission. The disciples have been searching for a hundred years and have found the dragon's rise. Now it is the day of the rejuvenation. I will set off tomorrow to create a great cause for the prosperity of the country. I hope the ancestors will bless him."

After saying that, the old fairy sat on the chair aside and said to Liu Shusheng with a serious expression: "Shuer comes here and listen to grandpa's speech. You have seen it just now. Our sect is called Xinglong Sect. The ancestor of the school is Huangshi. It has been more than a thousand years old. Grandpa is the sixth generation descendant and is 120 years old this year. The main purpose of our Xinglong Sect is to seek talents for the prosperity of China, and to teach them the skills of governing the country and helping the world, so that they can enter the official career and benefit the people. However, although talents are difficult to find, the country's fortune will not be prosperous.

Grandpa has traveled through several dynasties, and the previous dynasties were really incompetent, which led to the people's misfortune. How can one or two people change the situation? Moreover, it is also impossible to act against the sky. China should have this disaster. Although it was suspected of being a party in the dynasty, China is so big that it is difficult to master it if it is not so accurate. Now China has shown signs of revival, which is just the time when you have made great efforts. For more than ten years, I have urged you to practice martial arts and literature every day, and use medicinal materials to cut off hair and cleanse your marrow. I want to make you a pillar of the country as soon as possible."

Liu Shusheng suddenly realized it, but was a little confused, so he asked, "Grandpa, I already know it now, but why did he choose me?"

"The Xinglong School selects people from three aspects, namely, heaven, earth, and man. Heaven refers to the physical and bones that human beings have innately, earth refers to the bottom of human heart, and man refers to whether human mind is worthy of acquired cultivation. Through more than ten years of observation and cultivation of you, and what I saw in the eyes of the sky, I think you are the most suitable person. You have achieved success in martial arts now, but all you lack is experience. Now China has shown a revival, and you don't need to fight on the battlefield. With your current martial arts skills, there are few people in the world who can compete with you, so you can protect yourself. As for your mind, it is really good, talented and wise.
