The heavens start from Maoshan

Chapter 17
Maoshan is a mountain.

It belongs to Zhengyi, one of the three mountain talismans, and the discipline is relatively loose.

In contrast, the precepts of the Quanzhen Tao are the strictest.

There are even precepts such as not killing, abstaining from alcohol and sex, and even thinking about getting married and having children.

There are countless Taoist temples on Maoshan Mountain.

Divided down, it can be divided into three palaces, six halls, and 72 temples.

The three palaces are naturally the palaces dedicated to the three true monarchs, Mao Ying, Mao Gu, and Mao Zhong.

The six temples are the specific division of practice, which can be divided into six branches: talisman, corpse removal, god calling, alchemy, divination, and feng shui physiognomy.

As for the 72 views, it is the number of branches of Maoshan.

Taking Fuxi Hall in Ganquan Town as an example, it is one of the views of Maoshan.

In the future, if Zhenren Xu has money and builds a Taoist temple in Dagou Town, the 72 temple will become the 73 temple.

As for Yizhuang and Candle Paper Shop, this cannot be counted as a dojo.

At least it will not be recognized as a Taoist temple by the sect, and a Taoist temple must have the appearance of a Taoist temple.

If you don’t get along well, you don’t have enough Taoism, you can only live in Yizhuang and make a living, or run a candle paper shop for your business. That’s your fate.

"You have worshipped the ancestors, burned the sacrificial inscriptions, and received the merits of the third and fifth grades of the nine-rank Taishang. You are a member of my Maoshan faction."

After Xu Zhenren finished speaking, he entered the room and took out three things.

The first one was a crimson peach wood sword with inscriptions engraved on its body.

"This hundred-year-old peach wood sword was given by your ancestor when I went down the mountain. It is engraved with a soul-killing spell. It is extremely destructive to ghosts. You can protect it."

Xu Zhenren handed the peach wood sword to Zhang Heng.

"Thank you, Master."

Zhang Heng took it with both hands.

"This is the Maoshan jade pendant. All of my Maoshan disciples have one. This one in my hand has been cultivated in front of the patriarch's statue for more than ten years. I will give it to you today."

Xu Zhenren handed Zhang Heng the second treasure, a green jade pendant the size of a bottle cap with Mao characters engraved on one side and four characters "Slaying Demons and Evils" written on the other side.

"Thank you, Master."

Zhang Heng took the jade pendant and put it on his neck.

"This is a wake-up bell. Some spirits are the best at illusion. This bell can help you guard your mind. You can wear it on your waist for a long time."

Xu Zhenren took out another small bell.

"Thank you, Master."

Zhang Heng was full of joy.

I didn't realize that Xu Zhenren was quite valuable, and he gave him so many good things as soon as he became a teacher.

If he remembered correctly, the two disciples under Uncle Jiu, Qiu Sheng and Wencai, had been with Uncle Jiu for a few years without finding a single treasure.

Of course, this may also have something to do with Qiu Sheng's disjointed personality, Jiu Shu is not at ease giving them the baby, for fear that they will go out and cause trouble.

"Nephew, uncle, I am relatively poor, and I have nothing good for you."

After Zhenren Xu finished delivering the treasure, Zhenren Qian also said, "This is a gossip mirror, it's a gift for you."

After he finished speaking, he took out a palm-sized gossip mirror from his arms with a gossip pattern engraved on it.

"This is the two-meter gossip mirror of Longhu Mountain. It can illuminate ghosts, fix corpses, and bounce a spell. It's a good idea."

Xu Zhenren explained to Zhang Heng, and then added: "I still don't thank your uncle."

"Thank you, uncle."

Zhang Heng happily bowed to Zhenren Qian.

"A little gadget, nothing."

Qian Zhenzhen warned: "This gossip mirror can't contain too powerful ghosts and zombies, and it will collapse after rebounding a spell. How to use it, you have to think for yourself."

"Yes, Master."

Zhang Heng put away the gossip mirror.

He has an impression of this gossip mirror. At the end of the plot, Zhenren Qian and Xu Zhenren broke. They took it out in the battle of life and death, bounced off Xu Zhenren's thunder finger and then shattered.

It can be seen that this treasure mirror is also useful for monks in the foundation-building realm. Ordinary wandering souls and Bai Zong can settle down at once, and they are enough to become family heirlooms in the hands of rural gods and leftists. place to buy.

"You have just come into contact with the Taoist book, Talisman, and spells are too far away for you."

"In the next period of time, you have to read more Taoist books and practice your body diligently. I will teach you Tiangang footwork and magic swordsmanship, so that you can use it as a protective technique for walking in the rivers and lakes."

Xu Zhenren was afraid that Zhang Heng would look down on martial arts, so he warned: "We cultivators eat from the four sides, and you will inevitably walk on the rivers and lakes in the future, whether it is slaying demons and slaying demons, or reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, without martial arts. You can't do it with your body, after you cultivate your mana, the power of Tiangangbu and Suppressing Demon Sword will also increase greatly, and it's just a matter of time to jump up to the second-story building."

"Yes, Master."

Zhang Heng responded with one mouthful.

After speaking, he looked at the surrounding environment and whispered: "Master, my Dagou Town is [-] miles away from you, and it is inconvenient to travel. My disciple wants to build a Taoist temple for you in Dagou Town. Please, look."

Without waiting for Xu Zhenren to speak, Qian Zhenren said: "The Taoist temple is no better than other places, and it is not enough to build three tile-roofed houses."

"Take the mortuary and the law room as an example, the former needs to lay three inches of cement on the ground to neutralize the yin while embalming."

"The latter needs to spread three inches of cinnabar to enhance the yang energy and suppress the evil energy at the same time."

"This is the most basic. There are many other things to pay attention to. Let's say it will cost thousands of oceans."

As soon as Zhang Heng heard the thousands of oceans, he thought that this is not much, and immediately said: "Master, don't worry, this amount of money is nothing to a disciple."

Seeing that Zhang Heng didn't even frown, he should come down to cover the Taoist temple, and Qian Zhenzhen was even more eager: "Junior brother, this apprentice you accepted is really filial, unlike me, who only spends my money and has never been filial. I."

Xu Zhenzhen looked helpless: "You picked up the money and water, and I have followed you since I was a child. Where did he get the money? Besides, filial piety can't be compared with money, it's sincerity, as Master said back then."

"You don't bring money with you in life, and you don't bring it with you in death, isn't that the sentence?"

Qian Zhenzhen looked irritated and waved his hand: "Master was born in Maoshan since childhood, and he has never suffered from the suffering of the people. Just listen to what he has to say. It can't be true. In these days, it is difficult to walk without money. real."

Zhang Heng stood aside and listened.

In comparison, although Xu Zhenren and Qian Zhenren are from the same school, their personalities and ideas are very different.

Qian Zhenzhen is practical, while Xu Zhenren is more idealistic.

Perhaps this is also related to the situation of the two.

Before Qian Zhen went up the mountain, he lived a hard life and begged for a living. He knew the importance of money at a young age.

Xu Zhenren grew up at the foot of Maoshan Mountain. His ancestors were all tenant farmers of Maoshan School, and he lived a stable and comfortable life.

Different childhoods have caused deviations in personality and philosophy.

It is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong, because this world is not divided into black and white. Compared with the smooth and smooth Xu Zhenren, Qian Zhenren's life trajectory is more in line with most people.

Ordinary, twisty, ups and downs.
