Although I had already greeted Daoshan and others outside the Qiyang Temple just now, Xiao Hua still saluted again according to the so-called Taoist etiquette. When the ceremony was over, Daoshan's face became even more smiling, he walked to the confession case, put the jade plate on the confession case, then picked up three long incense sticks from above, and said to Xiao Hua with a smile: " Senior Xiao, please offer incense to Dao Patriarch!"
"Okay!" Xiao Hua took it, waved his hand, a ray of fire flashed, and the three sticks of incense were lit immediately, seeing strange expressions in the eyes of a dozen disciples nearby.
After Xiao Hua respectfully inserted the incense candle on the incense burner, Daoshan was obviously relieved, and raised his hand and said: "Thank you, Senior Xiao, please, please come to the side hall to serve tea!"
With that said, those Dao boys with flutes and other musical instruments in their hands played again, Xiao Hua walked through a yellow curtain under the leadership of Dao Shan, and came to the side hall, where there is a yellow futon and several tables chair. However, Daoshan didn't sit down immediately before walking to the chair, but closed his eyes slightly, which made Xiao Hua a little puzzled, and Xiao Jian was also confused when he looked at Xiao Jian again, but the two of them could only follow suit and stay together The sound of silk and bamboo floated into the night sky, Dao Shancai opened his eyes, raised his hand with a smile and said: "Senior, fellow Taoist, please sit down!"
"Fellow Daoist, please!" Xiao Hua sat down with a smile, then Xiao Jian and Dao Shan sat down, Liu Yi and Yuan Ya stood obediently behind the two of them, a dao boy with delicate features was holding a somewhat peeling tray Come over in a hurry and bring three cups of tea. When Daoshan went down, he seemed to have something to say, but seeing that Daoshan's attention was on Xiao Hua, he didn't dare to speak, and beckoned at a slightly older disciple behind Daoshan. Beckon, and then go down.
The older disciple glanced at Daoshan who was speaking to Xiao Hua, nodded slightly at Xiao Hua again, and walked out quietly, Daoshan's ears were not very good, so naturally he didn't notice it.
"Senior Xiao, where do you always practice? How many disciples are there?" Daoshan asked Xiao Hua to have a sip of tea, and then asked respectfully.
Xiao Hua took a sip of tea, the tea powder was very bitter, and made the tea a little black, Xiao Hua felt relieved just touching his lips, and replied with a smile: "Master Haojiao knows, Xiao used to be overseas Cultivation, there are no disciples under the sect now! This Liu Yi is just doing a boy's order!"
"Overseas?" Daoshan's eyes lit up, and he said anxiously, "Is it the East China Sea? Lao Dao wanted to visit the East China Sea when he was young, but until now, he still has no chance to see the magnificent East China Sea!"
Xiao Hua shook his head with a smile: "Don't ask any overseas masters! Anyway, it's far awayOf course, if the master wants to go, just find some time to go and see it in the future!"
"Oh, I am old and can't walk anymore!" Daoshan said with a smile, although it sounded like a lament, there was not much sadness in his tone.
Xiao Hua comforted him and said: "Master is wrong, Master's good deeds will shine brightly, the way of heaven is fair, and he will never let Master let go at such an age! There are too few people like Master in this world. Since Master met Xiao, then It is the opportunity Dao Patriarch gave Master, so that Master will do good deeds in this Seven Suns Temple in the future!"
"Hehe, thank you for your auspicious words, senior!" Daoshan knew that Xiao Hua had cultivation, but he couldn't believe what Xiao Hua said, so he just said with a smile, and Xiao Hua was not in a hurry to take out the Rejuvenation Pill Well, after all, Daoshan is an ordinary person, Xiao Hua doesn't know whether Daoshan can bear the medicinal power of Chundan this time, since he has come to the Seven Suns Temple, he will naturally help the good people of this sect to live a long life.
"Gululu" Xiao Jian was already hungry, but now that he took a few sips of tea, his hunger growled.
"Haha, the old man forgot!" Daoshan smiled, then turned his head and ordered, "Disciple, go and serve Master Xiao a bowl of porridge!"
A disciple behind Daoshan had a distressed expression on his face, but he still responded and was about to go out. At this time, the disciple who had just walked out returned to the door of the main hall. Hearing this, he hurried to Daoshan's side, bowing Said a few words.
"Oh?" Daoshan frowned, showing a trace of embarrassment on his face, and then said to Xiao Jian with a smile, "You are laughing at Xiao Daoyou, the white porridge just now has been donated. And today is the Ghost Festival, the old Taoist wants to let everyone around Good Lords, eat more and cook all the food in the temple into white porridge. Now there is no food in the Taoist temple. The old Taoist disciples should pick some green vegetables from the vegetable field in the backyard. Taoists cook some, and stay until tomorrow morning. How about the seasoned disciples selling the greens in the market, and then buying some grain?"
Xiao Hua heard it clearly from the side, and said with a smile: "Master, you are welcome, and the benevolent masters outside the door do not need to persuade you to leave. Previously, it was the master who gave the porridge, but now it is Xiao's time to give the porridge. The master, please ask the disciples to send Xiao to It¡¯s enough to store food at ordinary times!¡±
"Oh? Senior Xiao, this is" Daoshan was puzzled, obviously he did not understand the magic of Taoism.
"Senior, Xiao Xianchang is??A well-known monk in my Taoist sect has the ability to cast beans into soldiers and move mountains and seas! All you need to do is take the head fairy with you! "Xiao Jian said with a smile.
Dao Shan naturally wouldn't let his apprentice take Xiao Hua there, after he personally brought Xiao Hua to the main hall, he walked through several deserted courtyards, and finally came to a small courtyard, Xiao Hua glanced at the courtyard On the left side of the chai gate, outside the gate, under the moonlight, a lot of vegetables were really planted. In this yard, there were two Taoist priests with thick hands and feet, washing the iron pot that had just been brought back from outside the Taoist temple.
"Inside" Daoshan raised his hand and was about to speak, Xiao Hua shook his head and said, "The place inside is too small, is there a bigger place?"
Daoshan had no choice but to point to a few houses across the yard and said: "This is where winter vegetables are stored in winter, and it is empty now. Is it possible that seniors really have the magic of creating something out of nothing?"
"Seeing is believing and hearing is false!" Xiao Hua strode forward to a few rooms, shook his hand a few times, and said with a smile, "Master, just see for yourself!"
"Oh?" Daoshan tremblingly walked to a room with a lantern in his hand, and looked at the densely piled grain inside, almost crying, "Good, good, this winter my Qiyang Guanqian will no longer starve to death of the Good Lord!!"
"Khan" Xiao Hua couldn't help but sigh with emotion. It's only summer, and the old Daoshan thought of the porridge in winter. It seems This kindness has penetrated into the bone marrow of the old dao!
"Hurry up, disciples, cook porridge first, and invite Senior Xiao to eat, and the big iron pot will cook porridge quickly, so that the benevolent masters watching outside will have a full meal!" Daoshan quickly ordered.
The disciples of Daoshan were all crazy. They looked at these few rooms again and again, and confirmed that there were mountains of grains inside, and then carefully took some to the opposite yard for the pyrotechnic Taoist to cook. The eyes of everyone looking at Xiao Hua are all in awe and respect, which is really no different from the fairy elder in their hearts!
"Hey, Senior Xiao really has magical skills~" Daoshan accompanied Xiao Hua back to the side hall again, and said with emotion, "This is something that juniors can't even imagine in their dreams!"
"What magical skill!" Xiao Hua waved his hand, "It's just that Xiao has a Qiankun bag on his body, and he carries some food with him!"
Daoshan really didn't know what a Qiankun bag was, he only understood after Xiao Jian explained it.
"Let's wait until tomorrow, Xiao will show you what a real divine skill is!" Xiao Hua said pretending to be mysterious.
"Okay, juniors will wait and see!" Daoshan didn't know what Xiao Hua was going to do, so he only agreed with a smile.
Xiao Hua looked at the main hall, and asked again: "Xiao remembers that there should be golden bodies of worship in Taoist temples, right? Why isn't the Taoist ancestor of my Taoist sect here?"
"Oh, I'd like to teach seniors to know!" Mentioning this matter, Daoshan showed a sad expression on his face, "Tongzhu Kingdom established its country with Confucianism, and has always rejected my Taoist school! There is no Taoist temple in Xiluoling at all, and there was no Taoist temple a hundred years ago." It is a barren slope, where all kinds of dirty and messy things in the country are discarded! Later, the experienced master came here, bought this barren slope with silver taels, and then built the Qiyang Temple here! Later, the king intervened For this matter, the Qiyang Temple was to be demolished. Daozu led several disciples to go on a hunger strike and sit in meditation for ten days. Seeing that my Taoist disciples were determined and would rather sacrifice their lives to keep the Taoist temple, the king was moved and agreed not to demolish it. Seven Sun Temple, but it does not allow any golden statues to be erected in the temple! Therefore, the Taoist ancestors put the spirit cards of the predecessors of the past generations here to worship, and did not erect any golden statues!"
"Belief is in the heart, if you don't believe it, even if you reshape the golden bodyyou are still making a wedding dress for others!" Xiao Hua didn't speak, Xiao Jian said with concern.
"Yes, if you have faith, there will be the golden body of the Taoist ancestor everywhere!" Daoshan nodded, "Later, both the master and the old Taoist knew that the king did not like Taoism, so they kept a low profile and only did good deeds. They are all created by the old Taoist with his disciples, and there is almost no charity in Tongzhu's country!"
Speaking of this, Daoshan sighed again: "Even so, Qiyang Temple is still a little difficult. No one cared about this barren slope, but now there are many people in the country and there is little land here. It is not far from the palace. A few people actually set their sights on the Seven Suns Temple again. If it weren't for the recent war between Tongzhu Kingdom and Jiang Kingdom, Lao Dao wouldn't be so leisurely here!"
Said, You Dao Tong brought up some bowls of porridge, Xiao Hua naturally didn't need it, but Yuan Ya and Liu Yi drank a few bowls with Xiao Jian, to Xiao Hua's surprise, Dao Shan also entered a Bowl, it turns out that this old Taoist who gave porridge didn't have enough to eat at night!
After everyone finished eating, Xiao Hua glanced at Liu Yi, turned his head and said to Daoshan: "Fellow Daoist, Xiao has placed an order at Seven Suns Temple tonight! But Xiao has some things to go to Mingyuefang, friend Daoist first Let's rest, Xiao will go to pay a visit to fellow daoists tomorrow morning!"
"Mingyuefang?" Daoshan frowned when he heard this, hesitated for a moment, and said strangely, "Why do you go there, senior? I'm waiting for people outside the squareshouldn't go there!" (Note Website website: www.hlnovel.com)?, still wondering, "Why did you go there, senior? People outside of us shouldn't have gone there!" (Remember this website URL: www.hlnovel.com
