The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

Xu Fu still doesn't understand why there are no more customers in his guest house after a Daoist like Zhong Wen moved into his guest house?

Even the other guest house in Changshoufang has at least people staying there, not to mention, the other guest houses in the Lifang are basically full of guests.

He, Xu Fu, really missed the days when the guests were full. At that time, he could count money every day, and he could count until his hands were cramped.

"Don't look for me, if you want to look for it, go to the Taoist priest."

Jin Shui really didn't want to tell him the truth, because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take the blow, and would kill himself with a kitchen knife from the back kitchen of his inn.

In fact, Huilai Guest House has no customers, and he only found out about it some time ago in Jinshui.

It's not that guests don't come to Huilai Guesthouse to stay, it's just that after Li Shimin found out about Da Zhongwen's stay in Huilai Guesthouse on the second day, Li Shan already used this place as a surveillance object.

And then, it was said that the people below would not allow the Huilai guest house in Changshoufang to enter other foreigners to stay.

But over time, Zhong Wen's monitoring was lifted, but Li Shan forgot about it again, and the people below still sent people to patrol Changshoufang every day to prevent foreign guests from staying in the Huilai guest house in Changshoufang .

This also made the Huilai guest house, without a source of customers, for a long time, so that Xu Fu, the shopkeeper, could only look forward to Zhong Wen, the Taoist priest, to give some rent in advance, or to give up more money or something. Let him get through this difficult time.

Of course, Zhong Wen didn't know about this, and he never cared about the guest house, let alone the customer business of other guest houses.

At this time, Zhong Wen and Li Shan in the lobby were chatting happily.

"Commander Li, you mean, there are many sects and masters in this rivers and lakes, so have you ever fought with these people?"

"Of course I have fought. However, in recent years, I have been in Chang'an, so I have never walked on the rivers and lakes."

"Commander Li, do you know which sect is the most powerful in this world? Or are there any masters? I don't know much about the world, but I don't know what these masters are like."

"If you want to talk about the most powerful sect, there is Fuyun Sect in the south, Lingbao Sect in the north, Shangqing Sect in the east, and Zhongnan Sanmen in the west. Among the three Zhongnan sects, one is Taiyi Sect, and the other is Taiyi Sect. The Taizong sect, the third is the Taixu sect, besides these six sects, there is one more powerful sect, and that is Yunluo Temple."

"I know about the Taiyi Sect, and besides the Shangqing Sect, I have never heard of the other sects."

At this time, Zhong Wen listened to Li Shan and the Jianghu sects he was talking about, and these sects, apart from the Taiyi Sect and the Shangqing Sect, he knew basically nothing about the other five sects. Even Li Daoling never told him about it, maybe Li Daoling never knew about these sects.

"It's normal if you don't know. Few people from these sects have joined the world, and my master used to be a disciple of Lingbao Sect. However, after leaving Lingbao Sect, he is no longer a member of Lingbao Sect."

When Li Shan said this, he suddenly felt sad, and thought of his master in his heart.

Zhong Wen watched Li Shan stop and said nothing, he seemed a little sad, but he knew it in his heart.

After all, his master is from the Lingbao Sect, and after his master left the Lingbao Sect, he probably never set foot in the Holy Land of the Master Sect again.

"Commander Li, the past is over, don't worry about it, just keep it in your heart."

Zhong Wen comforted him.

"Hey, it's been a few years since this matter happened, but when it was brought up suddenly, I naturally thought of my master. Don't laugh at the little Daoist."

Li Shan was also like a man in the rivers and lakes, straightening his mind to show that he was fine.

"What's so funny about this? Laugh when you're happy and cry when you're sad. It's human nature. Just like when I'm sad, I shed tears. It's nothing. By the way, Commander Li, you As I said just now, there is a Yunluo Temple above the six sects, why is it called the top of the sect? Is it because the Yunluo Temple is powerful?"

Zhong Wen would not laugh at other people's sadness when they were sad, this is understandable, after comforting him, Zhong Wen mentioned Yunluo Temple again.

"The little Daoist is in a good mood. He laughs when he is happy and cries when he is sad. Well, that's what a good man should do. No wonder the little Daoist has such a high level of comprehension. With such a mood, it seems that he follows the principles of Taoism. It seems that I, Li It's time for the mountain to realize it."

Li Shan didn't explain this Yunluo Temple, but when he talked about his state of mind, Zhong Wen's heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat.

"Commander Li, you are laughing. It is mainly because I am young. Isn't that what I am at this age? After a fight with someone, it is natural to be happy when you win, and you laugh when you are happy, and it is natural to lose Sad, when I am sad, it is normal to cry a lot. If I am 50 or [-] years old, if I still do this, I will probably die of being laughed at."

Zhong Wen then explained, what a good mood, it's not just because of his young age, he laughs when he is happy and cries when he is sad, there is nothing to say about it.

"Hahaha, it should be so, it should be so, just like when I was young, when I got older, it was really inconvenient to cry."

When Li Shan heard this, he burst out laughing, and felt that it was very enjoyable to chat with the little Taoist priest in front of him. Although the two of them have a big age difference, they are basically straightforward. At this time, there is no such thing as hiding. It's on.

However, Zhong Wen didn't want to talk about this with Li Shan, he wanted to know about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, especially the Yunluo Temple.

Chapter 241 Master's Point

It's for the sake of chatting, not to mention, the age difference between the two is very big, which is really rare.

Afterwards, the two chatted on the topic of their state of mind.

Zhong Wen tried his best to draw attention to this Jianghu matter, but Li Shan seemed to be hanging on Zhong Wen, just stopped talking about that Jianghu matter, which made Zhong Wen very painful.

One wants to know, and the other doesn't want to talk about it, so there is nothing to talk about.

And the tea in this pot was also drunk by the two of them.

Zhong Wen had no choice but to call for Jin Shui, and then went to boil the pot of water.

All of this was in Li Shan's eyes. He really wanted to whet Zhong Wen's appetite and make Zhong Wen unhappy.

"Daozhang, have you finished talking? I happen to have something that I want to ask you for advice."

Xu Fu also ran over at this time, wanting to tell Zhong Wen what he had talked with Jin Shui, of course, it was about the source of customers for his inn.

"It's over, you talk, I'm listening."

Zhong Wen felt that anyway, Li Shan no longer wanted to say anything, and he was just hanging on to his own appetite, so it would be better to let it go.The meaning is obvious, that is, if you like to talk about it, you don't like to talk about it.

But at this time, Li Shan stared at Xu Fu with both eyes, Xu Fu was so frightened that when he wanted to open his mouth, he swallowed the words back, and then trotted back to the backyard.

Although Zhong Wen's appetite was suspended, he really wanted to know the following content, but Li Shan didn't say anything, so there was nothing he could do.

No, Zhong Wen wanted to find an excuse to send Li Shan away, so as not to hang his appetite and feel uncomfortable, it would be better if he didn't see it or bother him.

However, Li Shan seemed to want to continue chatting with Zhong Wen, otherwise, Li Shan would not have stared at Xu Fu.

Speaking of which, Li Shan seems to have always been a respondent.

On the other hand, Zhong Wen, like an idiot, didn't know anything and kept asking Li Shan questions.

So, naturally, Li Shan felt that the conversation was unfair. Besides, he came here to inquire about some things, not to explain Zhong Wen's doubts.

"Xiao Daoist, when I was fighting with you that day, why did the swordsmanship you used make me feel icy cold? Dare I ask, is there anything special about your swordsmanship?"

In the end, Li Shan couldn't bear it, and still wanted to find out more about Zhong Wen's skills. Of course, it's better to fight, which is more direct.

But right now, it is unlikely that a fight will start. After all, it is impossible for him, Li Shan, to make such a request. If he really said it, it would look like the elders are bullying the younger ones. If Li Shimin knew about it, There will inevitably be some dislikes.

"Commander Li, my swordsmanship is not perfect yet, and I haven't figured out the correct path. It does have a chilly air. I call it the Ice Swordsmanship for the time being."

Although Zhong Wen wanted to know about the world, Li Shan didn't want to talk about it. This turned to his own swordsmanship, but after thinking about it for a while, he finally said to Li Shan.

"Ice Sword Art? You created it yourself? How is this possible? You are still so young."

After listening to Li Shan, he felt that this world was not his own. Such a young Taoist priest created his own exercises, which he had never heard of, let alone seen.

"That's right, it's just that it's not complete yet. How about you and me, Commander Li, make an appointment to fight with each other one day, and you can feel it?"

At this moment, Zhong Wen was really interested.

As far as his swordsmanship is concerned, until now, he has not officially completed his moves. If Li Shan can fight with him, maybe he can still improve.

"Xiao Daoist, are you serious? If you really want me to fight with you, then I am willing to tell you some things about the world that I know."

Li Shan finally got the answer he wanted most, and it exceeded his expectations.

During this trip, although he wanted to know some things from Zhong Wen, this thing was originally about martial arts skills.

Just like before, he once asked Li Shimin to fight Zhong Wen, but Li Shimin never agreed.

At this time, Zhong Wen's self-invitation made him very excited, and this was what he wanted the most, because only after the two of them fought, he would know how high Zhong Wen's skill was. Then, Then, he can make his own decision, his own choice.

Of course, this was Li Shan's own business and had nothing to do with Zhong Wen, but he needed such a powerful figure as a support, and Zhong Wen didn't know the reason.

The two had different ideas, but in the end they collided together.

This made Zhong Wen look forward to it, at least, he was very curious about the affairs of Jianghu.

"Commander Li, it's just a competition, and it's not a big deal. As long as you are free someday, we can make an appointment somewhere and try a few tricks."

Zhong Wen nodded in response.

"Okay, it's a deal, then I'll continue. However, there are some words that are only between you and me."

Li Shan made up his mind, straightened his mind, and said to Zhong Wen.

"That's natural, you don't pass a word to your ears."

Zhong Wen knew it in his heart, but he just didn't know what to say. When it's time to accept a disciple, can't he go on?That's unlikely.

"Looking at the world, above these six sects, there is Yunluo Temple, which has been pressing on top of the six sects and cannot lift its head. Moreover, every ten years, the seven major sects will meet and fight to decide which of the seven sects However, this Yunluo Temple was already the head of the seven sects a hundred years ago."

Li Shan spoke carefully, and seemed to know the seven sects very well.

"Commander Li, do you know where these seven sects are located? Although I have heard their names Taiyi Sect and Shangqing Sect, I don't know where they are located."

Zhong Wen's curiosity was aroused, and he was very curious. Moreover, he only knew the location of Taiyi's sect, and basically didn't know the location of other sects.

"These seven sects, except for the three sects of Zhongnan Mountain, the other three sects can be known by their names. The Nanfuyun Sect must be located in the south. As for where, I don't know. Even if it is the other three sects I don’t know where my master’s sect is, including the Lingbao gate where my master is.”

Li Shan sighed, as if he looked up to the seven sects in his heart.

"Besides, besides my sect in the Tang Kingdom, I heard that there are quite a few outside the region, but I don't know where it is. For example, in the Wa Kingdom, I heard that there is a very powerful sect called Liuyun. I don't know the specific name. There are countries in the Western Regions, although there are no particularly powerful sects, but there are many masters, of course, Tubo is even more masters, such as Nasaya Temple, Pucuo Temple and so on."

Li Shan successively mentioned some sects that Zhong Wenting had never heard of, which made Zhong Wen feel that he was very skilled, but now, he discovered that the world was not as peaceful as he imagined.

Just like the names of these sects, all he knows are Taiyimen and Shangqing Sect.

On the other hand, when he was fighting with the Xuanzhen faction, he still felt that he was very powerful, but now, after listening to Li Shan's words, he felt that he was so small.

Zhong Wen felt that the world he traveled to was not the Tang Dynasty, but maybe a parallel world of the Tang Dynasty.

In the history books he read, there are no names of these so-called sects at all, and he has never heard of any masters or not.

Of course, Zhong Wen still believes in the existence of masters, but there is no such thing as Li Shan said, like the existence of the streets.

"Commander Li, I feel like I have come to a new world. I have never heard of everything you said. Then, how about the masters of these sects? How many are there?"

After Zhong Wen listened to it, he waited for a long time before waking up. Even the golden water that had been boiled was standing far away, not daring to come over.

Li Shan paused, waved to Jin Shui, and motioned for him to bring the kettle over so that he could have another cup of tea. After talking so much, his mouth felt a little dry.

After putting the kettle on the table, Jin Shui turned around and left, heading for the backyard, probably to go to argue with Xu Fu.Zhong Wen didn't care, he took the kettle and poured some tea into Li Shan's bowl.

Li Shan quietly picked up the bowl and drank a few sips of tea.

"I don't know how this master is, but I have learned a few. For example, in the Lingbao Gate where my master is, I have been taught before. I can't do fifty moves in his hands."

Li Shan continued.

"When the sage came to the throne, one person from the Shangqing Sect, the Taixu Sect, and the Yunluo Temple came. In my own opinion, I will definitely not be able to do thirty tricks."

After Li Shan finished speaking, Zhong Wen was terrified.

In fact, with Li Shan's skill, Zhong Wen was confident that he could defeat him, but within thirty strokes, it seemed a bit difficult. Of course, this does not rule out that his newly realized swordsmanship is even more powerful.

"Commander Li, how do you distinguish between such masters? Masters always have ranks, such as you and me."

Although Zhong Wenxin was terrified, that world was still far away from him, but right now it was like listening to a story, and it felt very novel.

"The distinction between masters, in fact, for you and me, you don't have to worry about it. After all, they don't often walk in the world, and they don't distinguish between them. It doesn't apply to people like us who can't even do thirty or fifty moves. .”

Li Shan listened to Zhong Wen's question about the distinction between masters, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that he had also asked his master.

But now, his own master had passed away long ago, and he almost forgot what he had told him.

Seeing Li Shan's mood at this time, Zhong Wen seemed to be a little depressed, so he didn't ask any more questions, thinking that he would ask again after Li Shan's mood calmed down a bit.

The division of masters, this at least allows you to have a number and understand what rank you are in.

Just like reading, you are in the third grade of elementary school, he is in the second grade of middle school, and she is a postdoctoral or something, so at least there is a clear and clear position, so that you can understand what kind of existence is at the top.

The two were relatively silent, sitting quietly, drinking tea from time to time.

After a long time, Li Shan finally recovered and stared at Zhong Wen.

At this moment, in his heart, he hopes so much that the little Daoist in front of him can reach the zenith in his future achievements. In this way, his wish can be relied on, even if he is asked to serve Zhong Wen all his life, he all willing.

Of course, this is just his current thinking. After all, some things can't be done as you want.

"Xiao Daoist, your Taoist name is Jiushou, and your real name is Zhong Wen. I prefer to call you Jiushou, because I think this Daoist name is very good. In fact, the distinction between masters is clear, but that is It belongs to the division of masters, and down, just like me, it belongs to the role that cannot be seen by them."

Li Shan looked at Zhong Wen and continued.

"People who practice martial arts in the world can be divided into acquired, consummated, innate, and superior. And I belong to acquired, perhaps already close to consummation, but it is difficult and difficult to enter consummation. Reached."

After Li Shan finished speaking, he felt very lonely, like a dog who had been defeated, his head was downcast, and his spirit began to weaken a little.

"Acquired, consummated, congenital, and above? What kind of division is this? How to distinguish?"

After Zhong Wen listened to it, he thought about it for a long time, feeling very unreal.
