Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai were Zhao Ran¡¯s roommates when he entered Wujiyuan. Eight years later, the fate of the three people who worked together to collect dung and sweep the house were completely different. Zhao Ran has already occupied the position of temple blessing at the Sandu level, but the two of them are still doing odd jobs in the dormitory.
Last month, Zhao Ran went to the foot of Wuji Mountain and asked the two of them to make a choice. Jiao Tan was already disillusioned with his Taoist career and planned to return to his hometown to study and pursue an imperial examination career after ten years.
After Zhou Huai thought about it, especially after seeing Zhao Ran promoted to the governor, he finally made up his mind to come to Zhao Ran.
Zhao Ran handed over the document and said: "It doesn't matter, you might as well start over."
Zhou Huai took the document, sighed for a moment, and pressed his fingerprints as well. After doing so, his eye circles turned slightly red.
The last one is Song Xiong, who opened the monument. This man robbed Junshan four years ago and was captured alive by Junshan. Later, he responded to the Junshan Temple's policy of "lenity for confession" and was not jailed, but was treated leniently. Because Song Xiong was very hard at martial arts, even Guan Er and Lu Jin admired him, so Zhao Ran asked him to go to Jundu Mountain to take care of the "bandit village".
In the past few years, the Junshan area has been peaceful and there are almost no worries about bandits. In addition to the two great gods "Zhao Xianshi" and Wuse Master sitting in charge, Song Xiong can be said to have made great achievements through hard work. According to the arrangements of Guan Er and Lu Jin, he settled many Jianghu people who were planning to come to Junshan to make a fortune, and made great contributions to the peace of the people of Junshan.
Zhao Ran had known Song Xiong's wish for a long time. Without him, he just wanted to enter the Taoist sect, even if he became a fireworker layman. In short, he wanted to "cleanse" his wealth. According to his original words, he just wanted to "clean up his wealth". day".
Zhao Ran had this plan for a long time, but he was delayed for more than a year when he went to Xixia, and was suppressed by Dong Zhikun for half a year when he came back. It was not until today that he finally completed this matter, which was regarded as the fulfillment of a wish - it was both Song Xiong's wish and It's my wish.
Song Xiong took the document, signed it, then knelt on the ground respectfully, and kowtowed to Zhao Ran three times: "Thank you so much, Immortal Master, I, Song Xiong, can finally be a new man in this life. If my mother knew, she would be so happy." ¡¡±
Zhao Ran took out two silver notes from his arms and handed them over, saying: "I heard that your home is in Changning Fort, the capital? How about this? I'll give you three months of rest and go home to see. This is what I'm giving to your elderly family. A little thought, so that I can buy some things when I go home. In addition, when passing by Zhaojiazhuang, Shiquan County, you also helped me visit my uncle and aunt. My uncle's name is Zhao Ming. You will know when you go there. If he lacks anything at home, you can make the decision and help me buy some. I originally wanted to go back with you to take a look, but we are too busy here, so I can only ask you."
Song Xiong said "Hey" and knocked his head down again, unwilling to get up for a long time.
Guan Er went over and pulled him up with a smile, and said, "Old Song finally got over it." When he looked again, Song Xiong had tears streaming down his face.
In addition to Zhao Ran, Junshan Temple currently has one sutra master, three Taoist priests who have received the ultimatum, and five lay Buddhists who have received the ultimatum. It is still more than half short of the full complement of eight ultimatum-receiving Taoist priests and 12 lay laymen who have the ultimatum, but there is nothing we can do about it. The matter can only be left empty for the time being. Who told Zhao Ran to bring no one with him?
According to Zhao Ran's idea, in addition to the two remaining Taoist positions, except for the position of Sutra Master, which was occupied by Jin Jiu, the Master of the Taoist Temple was responsible for the duties of inspection, collection, treasury, accounting, and welcoming guests in the Taoist temple. , that is, daily chores, logistics, files, personnel, accounts, temple property, etc. There are many affairs and heavy responsibilities. Wait a year and a half to see if Lin Shuangwen can take up the job. If so, this job will be left to him. If not, he will have to find someone else.
The leader of the hall will be responsible for patrolling bandits, arresting illegals, and suppressing heretics in the Junshan area. If nothing unexpected happens, Guan Er will transition after receiving the ultimatum for three months, and he will soon be able to take this position.
Nowadays, the preaching area of ??Junshan Temple has been greatly increased, and various fasting rituals must be indispensable. There is a great shortage of Taoist monks with excellent Taoist skills. Therefore, Zhao Ran urged Zhong Sanlang and Qu Fenghe to study hard, and on the other hand, Zhao Ran urged Zhong Sanlang and Qu Fenghe to study hard. Jin Jiu was also asked to pay attention to see if there were any good seedlings among the people of Junshan worth cultivating.
Fortunately, Zhou Huai has also been studying since he was a child, and his cultural background is not bad. If you give him a period of hard study, he will be able to master it during the busy Zhaijiao period.
After the personnel framework is established, the most important task facing Junshan Temple is spring plowing. In fact, spring plowing has already begun before this personnel appointment and dismissal meeting.
When it came time to actually start the specific affairs, there was nothing to do without Zhao Ran. Spring plowing and autumn harvesting are very familiar to all the Taoist priests in Junshan Temple. Just leave everything to Jin Jiu. If Zhao Ran really appears in the fields, he will be causing trouble.
What¡¯s more, Zhao Ran has nothing to do. He has to rush back to Huayun Mountain as soon as possible so that he can return to his hometown.Add another flame to the robe.
After explaining to Jin Jiu, Zhao Ran set off on his journey. The old donkey followed the group of spirit demons to nowhere, and so far he couldn't see a shadow. Zhao Ran couldn't help lamenting that this beast had learned bad things and had no choice but to ride on a horse. , "Slowly and leisurely" returned to Huayun Mountain.
After entering the mountain gate, he went straight to Lingjian Pavilion and rewarded Quanzhike with ten taels of silver as usual. Quanzhike thanked him with a smile and said, "How long will Daozhang Zhao be back this time? Daozhang Wei and Yu are both here. I'll go and let you know." One sound."
Zhao Ran waved his hand and said: "Wherever it is, I'll just go and pay my respects."
Wei Zhizhen and Yu Zhichuan were both sitting in meditation in the Xixin Pavilion. After Zhao Ran left, the two senior brothers smiled at him, said nothing, and continued to practice with their eyes closed.
Zhao Ran also walked into the pavilion and sat down to cleanse his dusty heart.
Having gone back to Lingjian Pavilion many times to practice, Zhao Ran now feels that Xixin Pavilion seems to be more helpful to him than Jiange Pavilion, especially after fighting with Wang Wusen and Du Xingyan, he feels that he does not have much talent in Feijian.
He practiced in the sword pavilion, and the most advanced thing was evasion and defense. In terms of attack power, it was better to trap people directly with the Moon Ming Illusion Bagua Formation, and then use the Nine Heavens Black Dragon Great Forbidden Technique to hypnotize the mind. The power is quite impressive. . Of course, its power is sometimes too great, and it seems to be suspected of leaving sequelae to the opponent, so it needs to be carefully considered when fighting.
But the Xixin Pavilion is not the case. Whenever he returns to Huayun Pavilion and sits in the Xixin Pavilion, he can get rid of the intrigues and trivial thoughts in the world bit by bit, allowing him to regain his sense of practice and let him I feel again that I am still a practitioner.
If there were no Xixinting Pavilion, you might gradually lose yourself in the complexity and triviality.
The three brothers sat in meditation for more than an hour. Zhao Ran gradually felt that the spiritual platform was clear and clear, and entered a state of emptiness in body and mind.
Suddenly I heard Wei Zhizhen ask: "Junior brother, are you feeling better?"
Zhao Ran opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath of turbid air, felt refreshed, and sighed: "Every time I return to the master's door and sit in this heart-washing pavilion, I feel that a lot of the tackiness all over my body has been washed away."
Wei Zhizhen said: "Get rid of worldly thoughts and cleanse every inch. This is the key to cleansing the heart. Junior brother, please come back and sit more often when you are free. Don't lose your true self in the mortal world."
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, senior brother."
Wei Zhizhen said again: "Junior brother is currently restraining his internal energy and external energy, but has he entered the Huangguan realm?"
Zhao Ran smiled and said: "Exactly, we broke through seven days ago."
Wei Zhizhen stretched out his two fingers, put them on Zhao Ran's wrist, pondered for a moment, and said: "Junior brother, this sea of ????qi is really tough and thick, and the elixir is of excellent quality. There is a lot of hope for future achievements! Let's do this. Junior brother will return this time. Shan, please stay in the Xixin Pavilion for some more time to refine yourself. The master has not returned yet, so I will go to the Elder Hall to pray to my junior brother."
