    Marshal Zhao Gong, whose surname was Zhao Minglang, was from Zhongnan Mountain. He later lived in seclusion in Shu and practiced Taoism.  When the ancestor Tianshi was refining elixirs in Qingcheng Mountain, he took him to guard the alchemy room. After the elixir was completed, he divided it and ate it, thus achieving Taoism.  Because he took the elixir made by the ancestral heavenly master, his shape resembles that of the heavenly master.  The Heavenly Master then ordered him to permanently guard the Xuantan, named Marshal of the Xuantan, and to lead the Heavenly Lord of Treasure Recruiting, the Heavenly Lord of Nazhen, the Envoy of Fortune and the Immortal Official of the Profit and Market, etc., to take charge of all the gold and silver treasures in the world.

    Zhao Ran, along with the abbots of the advanced training class, looked up at the statue of Marshal Zhao in the main hall of Xuantan Palace. They saw that the statue looked like a black pot, with a black tiger underneath, a silver whip in one hand, and a gold ingot in the other. It was full of pearls and jewels, which made it a little funny.

    After listening to the abbot of Xuantan Palace explaining his life experience and appearance to everyone, he secretly speculated that Marshal Zhao might have also been transformed into a great demon. Just by looking at which pill he had taken, his appearance would resemble which one.  Then you can know it.

    "Suddenly, I was worried about the White Tiger Spirit Crane. She has been trying to transform beside Patriarch Longyang. Will Patriarch Longyang let her take drugs and become a second little Longyang?  That would be a bit bad

    Xuantan Palace is located in the capital city, and is next to the downtown area, so it occupies a small area, totaling more than ten acres of land. It is much smaller than the Cock Cing Temple under the jurisdiction of Dao Lu Si. It only has the Temple of Wealth.  There is a main hall, as well as two side halls, Cihang Hall and Zushi Hall, and the rest are the eight deacon rooms, including the Lao Yuan, the Sutra Hall, and the Yunshui Hall. Even the supervisory hall and the Abbot's Yard are of higher standard than the Baima Yard where Zhao Ran stayed.  It is much smaller, not to mention compared with Wujiyuan and Xizhenwu Palace.

    Although this Taoist palace occupies a small area, it has many Taoist priests. There are more than 130 Taoist priests who have received ultimatums, and there are also the same number of lay fire workers.  Where do so many people live?  The Taoist priests crowded in the dormitories, while the fire-working laymen rented their own houses outside. Therefore, the neighborhood surrounding the Taoist Palace was also called Xuantanfang, and basically every household was involved in the Xuantan Palace.

    Most of the abbots in the training class came directly from the mountain. They are incomparable to Zhao Ran, Jiu Niang and others. Including Pei Zhongze, the contents of the tour and explanation are all the courses they must understand to take over the position of abbot. Each one  It feels very novel to hear it.

    The Leng Supervisor of Xuantan Palace took everyone to sit in the Sutra Hall again, and invited the eight deacons out one by one. They briefly talked about their responsibilities and daily affairs one by one, which made everyone gain a lot.

    In the afternoon, all the abbots witnessed a consecration ceremony where a businessman from the county below came to invite a statue for a newly opened shop.  After the ceremony, the presiding Gao Gong felt ashamed and said: "Xiao Dao is unable to do anything, and all the mages are laughing."

    Zhengyin Jinghui, who led the team, said: "This is what we want to learn from you fellow Taoists. Even if you don't have magic power, you are still conscientious and meticulous. It is precisely because of your persistence that we maintain the credibility of the Taoist sect.  Lasts forever.¡±

    When the sun was about to set, the day's field visit and study came to an end. The abbot surnamed Hou took the lead in sending everyone out. Someone asked when the Xuantan Palace would select monks to settle in. The abbot smiled bitterly and said: "It's always soon.  "Since the Sijiao Celestial Master took office, there has been a lot of commotion. I am already old. After a few more years, I can no longer hold on. I will prepare a letter of resignation in a few days."

    Although Abbot Hou is old, looking at him today, there is no such thing as "unable to hold on". There will be no problem in working for another five or six years.  Just by listening to the desolation in his tone, you can hear the unwillingness inside.

    But what can he do if he is unwilling to do so? The replacement of abbots of all palaces will be completed within three years. This is the general trend. In the face of this general trend, all personal futures have to give way. Not only him, but also the secular Taoists of the hundreds of remaining Taoist palaces in the Ming Dynasty.  The abbot, among whom there are many who are younger and more energetic than him, must vacate his position within two years, transfer what should be transferred, and remark what should be said. This is the pain of reform.

    This abbot Hou is a little better. Since the Songfan Tianhe Palace was upgraded in the 20th year of Jiajing, in the 22nd year, Jiujiang Prefecture in Jiangxi and Yingtian Prefecture in Nanzhili were also upgraded by half a rank. Therefore, Tianhe Palace, Sansheng  Palace and Xuantan Palace have become the three sub-provincial Taoist palaces of Taomen.  As the abbot of Xuantan Palace, he is a Taoist at the provincial level and a direct Taoist priest of Lushan Dianzao Academy. No matter how he moves around, even if he finally resigns, such a Taoist priest will always be watched and cared for by the General Office.  , until his death.

    The situation is different for the other abbots of the Taoist palaces in the state capitals. They are only half a step away from each other, and their treatment after resigning makes a huge difference.

    After going to the Xuantan Palace in Yingtian Mansion, we will then travel to several surrounding prefectures, such as Zhenjiang Prefecture, Guangde Prefecture, Yangzhou Prefecture, Taiping Prefecture, Changzhou Prefecture, etc. By the end of December, we will also take the advanced training course  We hosted a great fasting ceremony at Wenchang Temple.  Wenchang Temple is a provincial temple in southern Zhili. Holding a Zhaijiao here is regarded as a graduation internship exercise for the abbots.

    As the training class enters the second half, the noisy training ball competition also comes to an end. After seven rounds, Zhaozhen Pavilion Xing Tenghe won the first place in the Archmage Group, LingxuGe Du Xingyan came first in the Jindan Master Group, and in the Huangguan Group, Zhang Tengming achieved a comeback and won the championship in the last round, which made everyone feel incredible.

    Regarding Zhang Tengming¡¯s victory, Zhao Ran was speechless.  When he was in a crucial round of duel with Yan Shifan, a thunderstorm suddenly fell in Yingtianfu. By coincidence, Yan Shifan was showing off his latest fancy hitting method because he was leading by a big score.  He mastered Shenxiao's Sky Thunder Talisman, so tragedy happened, and a sky thunder was "drawn" down by him

    Fortunately, Yan Shifan was only in the Huangguan realm, and because he did not have strong control over his skills, in order to avoid the extremely unlikely possibility of being struck by himself, he had already worn protective gloves in advance, and this prevented him from being struck to death by lightning.  tragedy.  But even so, his club was damaged on the spot, and his body was also paralyzed to a certain extent. He was unable to complete the rest of the game and had to quit with regret.

    After this incident, the practice ball competition made clear regulations on the material of the clubs, and it was not allowed to add gold or iron materials to the clubs. At the same time, this incident also caused a lot of rumors in the capital. Many people applauded and said it was strict.  Mr. Ge has done too many bad things, and the retribution is on his son.

    In this way, Xing Tenghe, Du Xingyan and Zhang Tengming will become the champions of next year's spring competition, waiting for others to attack.  The detailed resumes of the three were also published in major periodicals, accompanied by extremely realistic character illustrations, and they became the stars of spiritual practice that people talked about.

    More importantly, after discussion, the organizing committee increased the rewards for participating monks. In particular, the three champions were given heavy season awards. Xing Tenghe was awarded 5,000 taels, Du Xingyan was awarded 4,000 taels, and Zhang Tengming was awarded 3,000 taels.  two.  As soon as such a reward came out, it immediately attracted the attention of the world.
