One thought of Acacia, one thought of perseverance

Chapter 5

The next day, there were pilgrims coming and going in Guanli one after another.Today's saints enshrine Taoism, which is highly respected by folk Taoism.This Qingxu temple is the most famous Taoist temple with a radius of [-] li in Lingxia Mountain, and it has been praised by people for many years.Therefore, there were a lot of believers who came to offer incense and pray for blessings.

At the entrance of the hall, there is a signing table named Jianxin Mirror. On the table is a bronze mirror carved with Taiji pictures and yin and yin fishes. On the wall, many signatures are pasted with yellow paper, and there is a Taoist priest named Qingzhen. Specially responsible for sign off.

He Mu got up early today and had nothing to do, so he waved a stick to solve the problem.There are many pilgrims around there are young sons and gentlemen, and they only think that she is a lady from a family who comes to offer incense, and point them out for a while.The Jianxin mirror is full of people, and many pilgrims have solved it several times with a lottery.Repeatedly, just for the beauty.

But the mussel didn't care about these things, she thought the lottery holder was very interesting, and waved four or five lottery sticks in one breath.Qingzhen didn't dare to let her line up, and she was even more worried that the pilgrims would speak rudely and bump into her, so she patiently resolved the lottery for her every time.In the end, Qingxuan couldn't stand it anymore, and tried to coax her back to Rongchenzi's bedroom with a plate of white sugar cake.

When it was busy, there was another noise at the door.But there was a farmer named Chai Fu in the village at the foot of the mountain. He started to suffer from a strange disease yesterday, and his right eye kept bleeding.And since he became ill, people in the village have been dying violently, the cause of death is accidental or natural, but it is too abnormal for five or six people to die in one day.

The villagers couldn't help it, so they brought Chai Fu to Qingxu Temple.

When Qingxuan heard this, he hurried to the door.Holding the white sugar cake, the river clam also trotted to watch the excitement.

Chai Fu was carried up the mountain, and he was still wearing the commoner clothes when he went to the ground. Sure enough, a stream of blood and tears flowed from his right eye, dyeing his clothes red.Qingxuan went up to take a look. He learned Taoism from Rong Chenzi since he was a child, but his qualifications are still young, so he couldn't see anything for a while.He had to order his disciples to carry him into the hall.

All the disciples were about to go forward, when the mussel squeezed beside him, she still knew that she lowered her voice: "Are you cured well?"

Qingxuan was slightly stunned, then shook his head: "I don't see any illness. But Master taught us since childhood that people who cultivate the Tao should focus on goodness and help the people. Whether it can be cured or not, you have to try."

The mussel just shook his head: "This thing can't be cured, and it's useless for you to carry it in. Instead, it will hurt Qingxu Guan."

Qingxuan raised his head to look at her, and finally remembered that this guy was the Emperor of the Sea. Although he couldn't see anything special about him except for his appetite, as the leader of a clan, he must have some unique abilities.He hurriedly asked: "His Majesty the Sea Emperor knows how to rescue him?"

The mussel just shook his head: "I don't know how to treat it. But how to do it, I know."

Qingxuan couldn't understand what she meant for a while, but since human life was at stake, he had no choice but to respectfully ask for advice: "I also ask the Emperor of the Sea to enlighten me."

The mussel bit off half of the white sugar cake in one bite, and its cheeks swelled into buns: "Is there a Taoist temple called Jiuding Palace opposite Qingxu Temple? Some of them came here to make a fuss about me a few days ago!"

Qingxuan nodded: "Yes, it's just that people from Jiuding Palace and Qingxu Guan have always been at odds with each other." He suddenly understood, "Your Majesty's meaning... is to send this person to Jiuding Palace?"

He Mu nodded, and Qing Xuan was full of hope: "Can Jiuding Palace cure him?"

He Peng shook his head: "It can't be cured, this matter will be troublesome even if your master is here. The best way is to set up lychee firewood and burn him immediately."

"...but he's not dead yet!" Qingxuan was kind-hearted, how could he cremate a living person?He Mu patted him on the shoulder: "That's why we have to carry it to the Jiuding Palace. This trick is called blowing fire to burn the mountain, and it's also called bringing disaster to Jiangdong. Think about it, you can't cure people if you carry them in, but in the eyes of the world, it's you Qingxuan delayed a life! You have gained a reputation for being pure and watchful of the waves! If you carry him to the Jiuding Palace, and then kneel in front of the palace gate to seek medical treatment for him! Anyway, Rong Chenzi is not here, you are a junior, and you will not be ashamed. He will be cured Yes, you were the one who knelt down and begged for a cure, and you have immeasurable merit. If a person is put to death, it is Jiuding Palace who puts him to death, and it is none of your business."

Qingxuan fell to the ground and couldn't get up: "Master will scold you when he comes back!!"

He Mu spread his hands: "Then you really can't cure it!"

Two quarters later, Qingxuan really begged the people and disciples for help, and carried the man up to the Jiuding Palace.Before leaving, He Mu took out a silk handkerchief and gently covered Chai Fu's right eye.I don't know what kind of material the silk handkerchief was made of, but after covering the right eye, the bleeding stopped instantly.She warned softly: "Don't look into his eyes."

Jiuding Palace is also a great sect, it is in charge of Taoism, and the master of swords is the Yuyang Taoist who came to Qingxu Temple last time to provoke.At this time, outside the palace gate, when the two saw Qingxuan kneeling and begging for each other, they were a little proud at first, but when they lifted the silk handkerchief, the two of them exploded with rage—Nima, a person with a pure and empty view is too wicked! !

This is the blood pupil technique, a kind of black witchcraft from Miaojiang, the victim's right eye is bleeding, but he can see things, and those who are seen by his right eye will die.In other words... It's unlucky to see anyone! !
The silk silk was uncovered by the real person Yuyang. The real person Xingzhi moved quickly and avoided it in an instant. Yuyang gave the blood pupil a thorough look.Master Yuyang panicked: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother, save me!!"

Xingzhi Zhenren also had real skills, and immediately put the silk silk back on Chai Fu's right eye. Many villagers were there, and dozens of eyes were watching. He ordered his disciples to carry Chai Fu into the palace and look again. My junior brother felt like sitting at home behind closed doors, and disaster fell from the sky...

And at this moment, another person bleeding from the right eye was found in Lingxia Village at the foot of Lingxia Mountain.

Qingxuan ordered people to cover their eyes immediately and not to look at people when they found this symptom, but he really had no way to save it.The clam took a bath in its original form on the back mountain, and it took a long time before it said something: "It seems that a wizard with profound knowledge has come here."

Qingxuan also understood: "This person hurting innocent villagers must not be a kind person. Could it be that he also ran for Master's flesh? Your Majesty, is this witchcraft really insoluble?"

He Mu spit out two more bubbles: "I don't know your Taoist alchemy, but I met one in southern Xinjiang before, and I created a method to break the curse, um, it's cured. "

Qingxuan was overjoyed: "Your Majesty, please enlighten me!!"

The mussel was elated: "Blind his right eye, making him unable to see, then the blood pupil technique will break."

"..." Qingxuan suddenly had an urge to hug a stone and throw her...

In just one day, people died one after another in the village, Qing Xuan couldn't sit still, and finally sent someone to deliver a letter to Rong Chenzi.The mussel stayed in the water for a long time, looking at the surrounding scenery, she said to herself: "The mountains and clear waters are beautiful, and those who disturb people's tranquility are really abominable..."

The appearance of the blood pupil technique not only caused panic in the villages under Lingxia Mountain, but Jiuding Palace also began to intervene in this matter.Reverend Yuyang now stays at home, and wears the talisman of expelling evil and refuge that teaches Reverend Xingzhi, but the black witchcraft in southern Xinjiang has always been weird, and even Reverend Xingzhi doesn't know how effective these talismans can be.

Jiuding Palace sent a large number of disciples to look for clues about the wizard, and Qingxu Guan feared that he would hurt the innocent again, so he also sent disciples down the mountain.But Qingxu Temple is no different from Jiuding Palace, it mainly focuses on doing good deeds and cultivating Taoism, while Jiuding Palace focuses on practicing martial arts and self-improvement, so if it is true about strength, the disciples of Jiuding Palace are still a little bit stronger.

The wizard hidden in the dark probably didn't expect that Jiuding Palace would intervene in this matter, so he stopped for a while and made no other moves.

Due to this incident, Qingxu Guan also temporarily closed the mountain gate to take in and treat the injured.

Perhaps things happen frequently, and the mussel has been sleeping less recently.At the end of the day and the beginning of the noon, she had already woken up and watched Qingxuan leading his disciples to practice martial arts in the dojo.The disciples of Qingxu Temple are versatile and learn a lot.In addition to scriptures and classics, martial arts and musical instruments must also be learned to some extent.

Learning martial arts, one is to strengthen the body, and the other is to have poor physical strength when catching demons and exorcising ghosts.As for learning musical instruments, one is to cultivate one's sentiments, and the other is to not have to ask for another music class when doing things. =_=
He Mu sat in front of the Jianxin mirror under the eaves, playing with the sticks in boredom.The September sunshine is soft and long, making the sleeves of clothes flooded.All the disciples also sneaked glances at her from time to time, even showing their strength in their movements.

About half an hour later, the dining hall notified that it was time for lunch.Qingxuan was asking his juniors to practice for the last time, when suddenly a villager outside ran straight towards him, and he was about to meet him when half a bamboo stick broke through the wind and pierced into the villager's right eye with a puff, causing blood to splash everywhere.

Shocked by this, Qingxuan rushed up and saw the villager covering his right eye and screaming.He looked at the bamboo stick that was half stuck in his eye socket, and then looked back at the clam sitting in front of the signing platform: "You..."

The mussel was also able to come forward, and leaned over to look at the villager who was rolling all over the ground for a while, but didn't see her move, and had already pulled out the bamboo stick.A line of blood and tears flowed down slowly, and the villager had fainted to the ground.

After staying with Rong Chenzi for a long time, Qingxuan and Rong Chenzi were inevitably upright, and suddenly became a little angry: "How can you hurt people casually?! Those are eyes, do you know how important eyes are to people?!"

He Mu didn't have as much patience with him as he had with Rong Chenzi: "Fuck me, if I hadn't acted fast, you would have been fooled by now! I don't have the Taoist skills that are as good as Xingzhi Zhenren, and I can't draw. Get out the talisman, and your master is not here. When he rushes back, I'm afraid there will only be time to burn incense sticks for you!"

Qingxuan was speechless, after all, in front of this monster, he was only a junior regardless of his status, seniority or age experience.He turned his head and ordered his disciples to stop the bleeding of the wounded.

He Bang was still indignant: "Good intentions are not rewarded!" She looked down at the half blood-stained bamboo stick, and was immediately happy again, only to sign a book: The origin is clear and the future is unknown.

She smacked her lips and admired sincerely: "Fuck me, this turtle is so accurate!!"

And in the evening, Rong Chenzi hurried back.The veteran of Jiuding Palace is not kind, and he complained to him before he entered the door, so his face is ashen now, and everyone in the Qingxu Temple is holding their breath, with their necks tucked and their tails tucked, and they walk carefully.

Rong Chenzi first went to Ninghui Hall to check the situation of the injured, and after hearing what happened in the afternoon, he added fuel to the fire!Immediately, Quanguan disciples were ordered to listen to the training in the Patriarch Hall!

He Mu was very happy to see him come back, and now he also followed to the Patriarch Hall.

The Patriarch Hall of Qingxu Temple offers the golden body of Pu'an Celestial Master. On the tribute platform, incense and mist are lingering, and all the disciples under the tribute platform are like mourning concubines.Rong Chenzi put down the whisk in his hand vigorously, and the bright and clear sky suddenly became cloudy with wind and rain. Qingxuan knelt on the ground without daring to lift his head.

Rong Chenzi couldn't restrain his anger: "I always teach you that life is precious in the way of immortality, and there is no limit to people! Now I have only been away for a few days, what have you done? Send people to Jiuding Palace, why didn't you tell Zhenren Xingzhi first Symptoms of a patient, but kneeling down and begging for help? Well, don’t learn! You have learned to deceive the world, steal your name, and evade false snakes!"

"Master, I know my mistake, I know my mistake!" Qing Xuan didn't dare to confess He Peng as the mastermind, and kowtowed to admit his mistake.Rong Chenzi snorted coldly: "Pindao can't afford to be such a master! You are so scheming at such a young age, and the poor have little talent and learning, it seems that you can't teach you anything!"

Qingxuan was horrified when he heard the words, and bleeding came from his forehead: "Master, this disciple was delusional for a while, and I really knew that I was wrong! In the future, I must remember Master's teachings, live a pragmatic life, and never dare to do such opportunistic things..."

Qing Xuan knelt down to repent, He Mu smacked his lips: "Tsk, Rong Chenzi, you are so amazing!! If my family Chunyu Linken kneels in front of me like this, I won't beat him!"

When Rong Chenzi was in a rage, how could anyone interrupt him: "Shut up! There's still you!" He pointed at the mussel, and immediately became furious, "If Qingxuan's temper hadn't been provoked by you, how could it have happened? Doing such absurd things?! You are in your position, you don’t plan to do anything, you idle around all day, eat and do nothing, but have you done something serious?! It’s nothing more than being used to you on weekdays, but today it hurts people... ..."

The more he talked, the angrier he became, how can He Mu be someone to provoke?She immediately raised her eyebrows and glared at her: "You are a god! Did I come to your place voluntarily? Why do you scold me? I am not your apprentice, why should I look at your face?!" Her voice He is bigger than Rong Chenzi, and he doesn't care about his image at all, "Nima, I live here like a year, I can't eat enough, I can't sleep well! I even met a headless ghost in the Taoist temple to scare me! You son of a bitch, smelly bull-nosed , I don’t have the ability to point my nose and scold my apprentice, after scolding my apprentice, I still have the face to scold me!”

Hundreds of pairs of eyes in the Patriarch Hall were staring at her, and everyone's mouths were wide enough to stuff a big goose egg.She was still filled with righteous indignation, and she felt wronged after thinking about it: "A few days ago in bed, you promised to go out and take others to play! A few days ago, you sneaked away again! Did it say in your scriptures that people who practice Taoism can speak or not?" Does it count?" She blinked her eyes, and the tears began to circle, "I asked Qingxuan to send people to Jiuding Palace, for whom? You are righteous, don't you think you are happy just watching them die?"

She started to cry as she spoke: "Besides, didn't I mean to hurt someone? If I don't make a move, what if he really sees Qingxuan and you can't break the witch's curse... Woohoo, you After walking for so many days, I don’t care about others when I come back, I just know to stare and scold them..."

"..." Rong Chenzi had nothing to do with this kind of person, really nothing to do.The strength is not at the same level at all.

"Okay, don't cry!" It was a high voice.

The clam burst into tears.

"Don't cry, what's so fun about Fahui, you'll be bored after going there." It was the middle voice.

The river mussels cried until the pear blossoms brought rain.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, don't cry." Rong Chenzi got up and walked in front of her, this time he changed into a bass voice, "I have traveled in many places for a while, and I know a little bit about southern Xinjiang witchcraft , Although the blood pupil technique is troublesome to solve, it is not impossible. Well, I don't mean to blame you, stop crying."

He Mu was still aggrieved: "Then you are yelling at him so loudly!"

"Well, I was wrong."

The atmosphere in the hall changed abruptly in vain, a bit like a small sun suddenly appeared after a thunderstorm.The river clam made an inch of progress, so he wiped his tears with his snow-white sleeves.Although he hurried back to the temple, he was still neat and dignified in his clothes.There is no sweat smell on the body, and the fragrance is floating and intoxicating.

Afraid that she would cry again after the refusal, Rong Chenzi did not avoid it.The clam was still sobbing: "Then you are not allowed to curse people?"

Rong Chenzi nodded: "Well, you go back to your room first."

This time, the mussel seemed to be well behaved, nodded and stood up.The corner of her feather coat swept across Rong Chenzi's face, the slight but soft touch was like fine wine in her throat, with a long tail.

Rong Chenzi stood up, she suddenly turned around and said: "You cultivators cultivate your body, your speech and your virtue, you can't be so bad-tempered all the time."

Rong Chenzi didn't dare to provoke her, he watched his nose and nose carefully: "Yes, I see."

She was so happy now, she jumped out like a little sika deer.

The little Taoist priests didn't dare to raise their heads, only their shoulders were shaking desperately, and their faces were deformed due to suppressed laughter.

"Wuliang Tianzun, Xiaodao finally understands why our Taoists pay attention to the harmony of yin and yang." A little Taoist covered his mouth and snickered.
