When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he turned back and looked up at the lush green mountains. Gritting his teeth, Zhao Ran turned around and headed towards the back mountain. The road to Xuanyuan Temple is unavailable, so I will try the road to Yuhuang Pavilion!
Zhao Ran had been to Yuhuang Pavilion two years ago, so the old donkey was familiar with the roads. He carried Zhao Ran to the southwest corner of the foothills, went into the dense forest, followed the clear stream, and arrived at the foot of Qingyun Peak in an uninhabited place.
He punched a flying talisman to Dongfang Jing at the cliff shrouded in clouds and mist. After a while, the clouds turned into a Yin and Yang Gate. Dongfang Jing walked out and said with a smile: "Junior brother Zhao, after so many years of separation, we can still return." Okay?"
The Yunshui Hall is still familiar, the bamboo forest is still green, and the cliff pavilion is still magnificent. Zhao Ran looks at the steaming clouds in the distance and can't help but sigh: "When I came here two years ago, I often stood here and couldn't get enough of it. Wuji Mountain There is also a cloud-viewing platform, which also offers a view of thousands of mountains and mountains.¡±
Dongfang Jingdao: "How does it compare with this place?"
"It's not as grand and magnificent as this place. It doesn't have such a fairy atmosphere, but it has a bit more worldly dust."
This was not Zhao Ran¡¯s speaking style. Dongfang Jing remembered Dongfang Li¡¯s evaluation of Junior Brother Zhao and waited silently for him to continue.
"Although it is the smoke and dust of the world, but to me" Zhao Ran suddenly couldn't say any more. Literary youth is a disease, and it's really terrible to pretend it! Unable to pretend any longer, Zhao Ran decisively changed his style of painting.
"Forget it, let's be honest, junior brother, I'm here to see Senior Brother Dongfang Li. I've sent him talismans several times, but there's no reply. I heard that he's been in seclusion to enter the realm, but he's been in seclusion for almost a year, right? Senior Brother Li Will anything happen?"
Dongfang Jing smiled, this is Zhao Ran. Although you know that he must have a purpose for coming to you, the preparation before he made the request made you disgusted, so he said: "Senior brother has been here for a while. It has been twelve days since the year, which is indeed a long time, but every level above the Golden Elixir Master is not so easy to climb. In my Jade Emperor Pavilion, there was also an elder who spent seven years and six years in the level of spiritual sustenance. Months¡¡±
Zhao Ran was speechless after hearing this. After seven years of seclusion, what kind of state is this? Not caring about anything, only focusing on the thing in the stomach? I couldn't help but complain: "Seven years and six monthsit's really a songit's so tearful"
Dongfang Jing couldn't help but smile: "I remember that Junior Brother Zhao spent three days in seclusion last time, right?"
"Yes, I quickly took a shower and shaved after I came out"
"It's very fast. Few people can be that fast. After your realm improves, the days of retreat will be longer and longer, so don't be surprised!"
Zhao Ran then thought about it and realized that his teacher Jiang Tenghe seemed to have been in seclusion for more than half a year when he broke through to become a master, so he had to accept the fact.
"I understand, Senior Brother Dongfang But what about my affairs? You know that I went to Xia Kingdom, but do you know what Senior Brother Li promised me? He said that after I return to the Ming Dynasty, he will help me be promoted to the Supervisor of Wuji Academy"
Dongfang Jing spit out a mouthful of tea, choked and coughed a few times, and busily wiped his mouth with his sleeve
"Senior Brother Dongfang, can you still have a good chat like this?" Zhao Ran's face looked a little unhappy.
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. I'm just surprised. It turns out that my junior brother has this ambition. I didn't expect that my senior brother promised you this."
Zhao Ran had explained this problem in front of many people. He was a little too tired from struggling with this problem, and he was in a bad mood at the moment. He simply didn't bother to waste any more words and directly grasped the key point and asked: "What Senior Brother Li promised, Dongfang Can senior brother help?"
Dongfang Jing thought for a moment and said, "I don't know how to help you. The general manager has always ordered that the monks in the temple are not allowed to interfere in the secular affairs of Shifang Jungle. Think about it, if we all go to tell Xuanyuan Guan Li Supervisory Academy and others, Tell them that you want to do this and that, then who do they listen to? Will the world be in chaos? The reason why the system is a system is to maintain order in all aspects of the world and ensure the normal operation of all places. "
How could Zhao Ran not understand these principles? Correct procedures are more important than correct results. He had heard this sentence countless times many years ago. Now he only mentioned it to Dongfang Jing because he was a little anxious. After listening to Dongfang Jing's words, he also knew that he was too anxious now, so he took a deep breath, calmed down, nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior brother, I understand."
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "As a monk, Senior Brother Li, is it against the law for him to help me?"
Dongfang Jing shook his head: "I'm not from Sanqing Pavilion, so I really don't know. Maybe Sanqing Pavilion has a way."
"Then for a monk like me to serve in Shifang Jungle, does that count as interference?"
Dongfang Jing thought for a moment and said: "You were originally a Taoist priest who received an ultimatum from Shifang Jungle. It seems that you have never listened.I said that people like you who have entered the threshold of spiritual practice but do not resign from Taoism or practice in the mountains I really can't say Lushan has never issued an edict that monks who have entered the threshold must resign from Taoism You do When the Fangzhu was conferring with Miao Zhu, did he point fingers at Xizhenwu Palace and Wujiyuan in the name of the pavilion? "
Zhao Ran shook his head: "Never! Senior brother, if I did this, how could I have wasted four years in the temple appointment?"
Dongfang Jing nodded: "Then it shouldn't count. Since your practice is in the secular world, you should try to be careful in the future to avoid violating the prohibition and not to be caught in pain."
"I know, senior brother."
Well, now Zhao Ran can only pray that Dongfang Li will be successful as soon as possible. If he really has to be closed for three to five years, it will be too tragic for him. He couldn't help but maliciously speculate that Dongfang Li was deliberately hiding from him by seclusion, right?
Dongfang Jingdao: "I met your master a few days ago, and my father went to Mount Lu with them. Master Jiang praised you a lot and said that you participated in co-authoring a Kung Fu method. I didn't expect that Junior Brother still has Such great talent is truly admirable.¡±
Zhao Ran smiled bitterly and said: "If I tell you that I am a trial product of the technique, will senior brother still admire me?"
¡°Haha, that¡¯s not bad!¡±
After talking with Dongfang Jing for a long time, Zhao Ran proposed that he would like to visit Cai Yunshen, and Dongfang Jing said, "It seems that junior brother's trip will be in vain this time. Uncle Cai also went into seclusion, just the day before yesterday"
"Senior Brother Dongfang, is it popular to retreat recently?"
"Um?"
"It's okay Uncle Cai is seventy this year, right? I see he has a head full of white hair"
"Today I am ninety-nine to seventy."
"This is really I hope Master Cai will have good luck and be able to get out of isolation soon and live a long life."
The longevity of the monks in this world is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people. Only after forming the golden elixir can there be a greater increase, but it will never change for a hundred years. For example, Master Jindan's lifespan can be increased from the average of 50 or 60 years for ordinary people to over 90 years old, but that's it.
So Zhao Ran had been worried about Cai Yunshen's lifespan before. He is still a golden elixir master at almost eighty years old. What will he do in the future? You must know that there is not much difference between the longevity of a great mage and a master. Breaking through to the realm of a great mage only adds ten years.
Uncle Cai treated Zhao Ran very well, but Zhao Ran really didn¡¯t want to see the scene like Zuo Yunfeng happen to him again.
Back then, master Zuo Yunfeng committed a massacre in the village for a plant of dragon's head orchid that could prolong life for three to five years. It was really because these three to five years were too important. For monks who have run out of life, this is the key to reversing their luck. With Zuo Yunfeng's cultivation as a great mage, he fell to a hundred years old before he was about to break through.
If Uncle Cai succeeds in breaking through the barrier, it means that in the remaining twenty years, he only needs to break through one more level, and he can hope to strive for the next step of 120 years of life.
