The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 412
"Tianshi, the distinguished guest has been brought."

The little Taoist trotted in front of Yuan Zhenzi, who was handsome but unkempt.

Yuan Zhenzi nodded lightly, "Well...you go ahead!"

It was just such a simple word, but it made the little Taoist priest full of excitement, he answered, and the figure who turned around and ran back seemed a little lighter.

He had seen the Celestial Master before, but where had he talked to the Celestial Master?
Even when he came to pass the pass before, he just asked the senior brother of the Tianshi Academy to pass the pass on his behalf, and he failed to meet the face of the Tianshi.

To be able to meet and speak to a celestial master is definitely something to brag about in his generational circle.It turns out that the Celestial Master is really so approachable.

Zhao Dongting did not put on the emperor's airs, and took the lead in bowing his hands to Yuan Zhenzi, "Senior Yuan Zhenzi, it's been a long time."

Yuan Zhenzi went outside and said softly: "Your Majesty, the poor have been waiting for a long time..."

It's just that at this moment, the smile on his face was vaguely complicated.

Zhao Dongting didn't notice this, and laughed lightly and complained, "I'm not as comfortable as a celestial master. If I didn't need to worry about state affairs, I would have come here long ago!"

Yuan Zhenzi laughed twice, but didn't answer the question.

"Xu Ci has seen a celestial master."

"Hong Wutian has seen the Celestial Master."

Mrs. Xu and Hong Wutian both bowed their hands to Yuan Zhenzi.

Given their status in the arena, they are considered to be of the same generation as Yuan Zhenzi, so there is no need to make a big ceremony.

"So it's the leader of the beggar gang, Hong, and Mrs. Xu, the shemin, so you're so old-fashioned and polite."

Yuan Zhenzi returned the salute, but there was no surprise on his face.Obviously, although he is in the mountains, he also knows about Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu in the Song Dynasty.

Then, he asked Zhao Dongting, Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu to walk into the courtyard.

When you get inside, you can see clearly that this is a rather old house by the faint afterglow of the setting sun.There are only a few thatched huts inside, and there are water tanks in front of the door, and even chickens and ducks, etc., with cages.In the middle of the yard is a huge ginkgo tree, whose leaves are still green in this season.

It just looks like a rather interesting folk house.

Zhao Dongting couldn't help feeling, "Tianshi is really close to nature..."

Yuan Zhenzi said: "Taoism is the way of nature."

Zhao Dongting nodded, but thought in his heart, maybe this Yuan Zhenzi was born idle and unwilling to take care of things, so he lived in such a courtyard!
His personality is very similar to Hong Wutian's, it's impossible to say that the two can share the same interests.

At this time, a Kun Taoist (female Taoist priest) came out from the second thatched hut on the right. She was wearing a blue Taoist robe, but her exquisite figure could not be concealed.

Seeing Zhao Dongting, the female Taoist priest who still had a charm said: "The poor Taoist Yu Xiangzi has seen the emperor."

She actually recognized Zhao Dongting as soon as she saw her, which made Zhao Dongting show a little surprise, and then nodded slightly.

Yuan Zhenzi said beside him: "This is a poor Taoist couple."

The Tao of Tianshi is different from the Tao of Quanzhen. The Tao of Quanzhen requires observance of the precepts. You cannot marry and have children, and you cannot eat meat, but Tao of Tianshi is allowed.

Otherwise, how could the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain only pass on to the Zhang family who have the blood of the Zhang family?
Upon hearing this, Zhao Dongting cupped his hands again, "Senior, you're being polite."

This female Taoist priest is actually Yuan Zhenzi's Taoist partner, and her seniority in the Taoism of Tianshi is obviously very high, and she can stand up to his "senior".

The priestess smiled back.

Although Yuxiangzi is the Tao of Kun, he is also the position of the little celestial master in the celestial master's way.

Take a seat in the guest room.

Yu Xiangzi was making tea next to him, with a slight smile on his face and a calm demeanor.

Zhao Dongting reckoned that there might be no place for him to live in this courtyard, so he asked aloud, "Senior Yuan Zhenzi, where is Tiandong Celestial Master?"

Yuan Zhenzi said: "Senior brother has been waiting for the emperor for a long time, but it is still inconvenient to meet the emperor at this time. The emperor should stay in the temple first!"

Although Zhao Dongting was a little puzzled, he still nodded.

Yuan Zhenzi said again: "Senior brother told the poor Taoist priest to ask the emperor to practice for a while with the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple before meeting the emperor."

"This……"

Zhao Dongting hesitated, "The affairs of the imperial court are busy, so what is the intention of the Celestial Master?"

Yuan Zhenzi said: "The human body is like a vat, and the inner qi enters the water. Although the inner qi will subtly improve the body's physique during practice, but the emperor has thought that you have only practiced for three years. Even if you enter the state very quickly, you will definitely not be able to stand it Senior brother’s empowerment. Therefore, you must first improve your physique to a certain level before you can successfully empower yourself.”

Zhao Dongting was no longer indifferent, and his face was solemn, "Okay, then I will start to exercise tomorrow."

He knew what would happen if the empowerment failed, ranging from ruining his cultivation to exploding and dying.Any kind of result is unbearable for him.

Although he didn't want to stay in Longhu Mountain for too long, there was no other way right now.

Yuan Zhenzi nodded, with a slightly weird smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "The emperor will drink tea first, and then the old Taoist will bring his disciples to the emperor to go to the residence."

Yu Xiangzi said: "This tea is a special product of Longhu Mountain. The tea from the mountains, but I don't know if it suits the emperor's taste."

Zhao Dongting said with a smile: "Senior, I'm afraid I don't know something. I really don't have much research on tea."

But Hong Wutian glanced over Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu again, and said: "As for the two, they will live in the temple these days, and the old Taoist will arrange another residence for the two."

Hong Wutian heard the meaning behind the words, and frowned, "Aren't we going to guard the emperor?"

Yuan Zhenzi said calmly and calmly: "Although the world thinks that my senior brother has gone west, not everyone in our Longhu Mountain will come here to act wildly. You two can rest assured about this. It is inconvenient for the emperor to reveal his identity. But the old Taoist will say that the emperor is my direct disciple, even if someone sneaks into the mountain, the Guannei disciples will not sit back and watch the emperor be in danger."

I just don't know why, when he said this, the smile on the corner of his mouth was even more mysterious.

This smile made Zhao Dongting feel a little chilly, but he couldn't figure out where the problem was.

What he can be sure of is that Longhu Mountain will not be against him.Because Longhushan wants to do this, why wait until now?
When he, Hong Wutian, and Mrs. Xu entered the contemplation, he could completely surround himself with the three of them.With the abilities of Longhushan, even though Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu are true martial arts masters, it would be difficult to escape with him.

After pondering for a while, Zhao Dongting said: "From now on in the temple, seniors will call me Zhao Dongting."

Yuan Zhenzi chuckled, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I will call you a disciple in the future!"

He looked a little smug.

Zhao Dongting couldn't laugh or cry.I always feel that this old Taoist is deliberately taking advantage of him.

At this time, I suddenly heard a cooing sound.

Everyone was surprised, Hong Wutian patted his belly with a laugh and said, "Old beggar...the boss's five internal organs temple has rebelled."

They came to Longhu Mountain from Liuxian Town, but they didn't even eat dinner.

"It's the old man who neglected."

Yuan Zhenzi had a rare look of embarrassment on his face, and hurriedly got up and ran outside.

Soon his voice sounded from outside, "Get some fast food! Five people!"

After he came in, not long after, a middle-aged Taoist priest brought in a vegetarian meal, both meat and vegetables, and the cooking was quite delicate.

This surprised Zhao Dongting a little.He thought that the Taoist priests lived a simple life on the mountain.

While he was eating with Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu, Yuan Zhenzi went out again.

Yu Xiangzi didn't talk much, just smiled and kept silent.It seems that she is much more like a Taoist priest than Yuan Zhenzi.

Only ten minutes after the meal, two more Taoist priests walked into Yuan Zhenzi's courtyard.

However, their seniority is not low. Seeing Yuan Zhenzi and Yu Xiangzi, they saluted and shouted: "I have seen Yuan Zhenzi and Yu Xiangzi."

No wonder these two Taoist priests looked quite old, but they turned out to be Yuan Zhenzi's apprentices.This seniority is already regarded as the pillar of Taoism in the world.

It can be said that the current Taoism is really controlled by people of this generation, such as Zhang Tiandong and Yuan Zhenzi, who only occasionally intervene in major affairs and rarely show up.

Yuan Zhenzi introduced to Zhao Dongting that the two Taoist priests were the current master of Zhengyiguan and the elder in charge of board and lodging respectively.

Zhao Dongting met the two of them.

Yuan Zhenzi said to Zhengyiguan Guanzhu: "Qingsongzi, from now on, I will teach my disciples first, and I will focus on physical training, and be with your disciples."

Qing Songzi showed surprise, then nodded, but he was thinking in his heart, when did Master Yuan Zhenzi get the idea of ​​accepting apprentices?
Yuan Zhenzi said to the elder again: "Qingyunzi, these two are old leader Hong and his wife of the Beggar Gang, you go and arrange rooms for them and stay in the temple."

Not to mention, even though Yuan Zhenzi was dressed sloppily, he was quite majestic in front of these junior disciples.

Qing Yunzi also bowed and agreed.

Soon, Zhao Dongting, Hong Wutian and Mrs. Xu were taken away by Qingsongzi and Qingyunzi respectively.
