I have become immortal, Taoist friends still need to be diligent

"I……"

Li Mu looked back at Bailitan.

Seeing the smug look on the other person's face, I wanted to say dirty words.

"My knight, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them."

Before Li Mu could do anything, the Taoist priest on the stage said to Li Mu.

"Ahem, Taoist Priest, do you believe me when I say I was pushed out?"

Li Mu replied awkwardly.

Ask him to ask a question. He has already mentally closed his ear consciousness just now. Why ask?

Asked the chief, have you eaten?

"Haha, knights, don't be nervous. We Taoists don't ask for cause and effect, only fate."

"Since the knight is already standing in front of the stage, he is naturally destined to be with us."

The oldest Taoist priest said with a smile.

Li Mu pondered for a while. Since it is not going to end well, it seems that I have to pretend today. You forced me to do this. I am embarrassing myself.

Thinking of this, Li Mu spoke.

"The Tao can be Tao, but it is very Tao. The name can be named, but it is very famous."

silence.

After Li Mu said these words, everyone present felt the torture that hit their souls.

After all, everyone present knew more or less about Tao, so they naturally roughly understood what Li Mu meant.

The general meaning is: the Tao that can be clearly explained in the world cannot be called the eternal Tao. The Tao that can be expressed in words and named cannot be said to be the eternal name.

When Li Mu said this, it was as if he was saying that what you are arguing about here are all small Kalami, half a bucket of water.

After a long time.

"It's the old Taoist who is confused, haha. Listening to the layman's words today is like carrying a pot for initiation."

"The old Taoist has decided that from now on, I, Ziyang Palace, will withdraw from the dispute between Taoism and Buddhism and concentrate on studying the classics."

After the white-haired old man was silent for a long time, he suddenly laughed and said to everyone present, as if he felt much more relaxed and relaxed.

"I, Jinhua Temple, will also withdraw and concentrate on studying Buddhist classics."

The leading monk who had been silent for a long time also followed closely and said.

"Ah~"

Li Mu was stunned. This time, he was completely stunned. With one sentence, this once-in-a-decade event was shut down.

Bailitan in the crowd was also dumbfounded. He did not expect that Li Mu, a rotten wood, could actually speak such truth.

"That's it for today. Please go back, laymen."

After receiving the signal from the old Taoist priest's eyes, the other Taoist priests who were maintaining order in front of the platform woke up from their daze, and then spoke to the crowd on the platform.

"My little friend, I see that you are destined to be with me, Ziyang, and you would like to come with me to the palace for a chat."

After the others began to leave slowly, the old Taoist priest flew down from the high platform, came to Li Mu and said to Li Mu.

"Uh~ That's okay, but can I bring my eldest brother with me?"

Just as Li Mu was about to refuse, he suddenly turned around and took a scoop. Bailitan said with an envious look.

Li Mu thought to himself that it was okay to go to Ziyang Palace to gain knowledge. After all, Ziyang Palace could not harm him in public, so he could go to Bailitan to satisfy himself.

After several days of communication, Li Mu could tell that Bailitan was not a villain, but an old naughty boy who liked Taoism.

"Yes, please two laymen come with me."

The old Taoist priest said with a slight smile.

"Brother, if nothing else, I recognize you as my brother. If you encounter any difficulties in the world in the future, mention my name so that it can be used."

Bailitan ran to Li Mu with excitement and said.

"Brother Baili, you and I are destined to meet each other. To say this is to say nothing."

"But I still owe you two days' rent, no~"

Li Mu hinted at Bailitan with a smile.

"Harm, as the saying goes, brothers have to settle accounts. Let's not talk about it for now. I'm going to see the Taoist priest."

Before Li Mu could finish speaking, Bailitan quickly ran to the side of the old Taoist priest.

Finally, Li Mu and others came to a large hall.

"Real person."

Two Taoist priests in their twenties at the door saw the old Taoist priest coming with a group of people, and they quickly saluted and opened the door.

"This is the Ziyang Hall, please come in and have a chat."

The old Taoist priest saw that the door had been opened, so he turned back to Li Mu and said.

"it is good."

It was the first time for Mr. Li to see such a large all-wood structure hall, which was magnificent and majestic.

Entering the main hall, Li Mu found that it was very empty, with only some futons.

Li Mu estimated that this was probably where the senior officials of Ziyang Palace received guests.

"Everyone, please take a seat."

After everyone came in, the old Taoist led Li Mu and Bailitan to his side and said to everyone.

Then everyone present also sat down cross-legged.

"I wonder where the layman is from?"

The old Taoist looked at Li Mu and asked gently.

"The following is Li Muzhi of Anxi Prefecture, Chengyang County, and Qingping County."

Li Mu did not hide his information. After all, he had nothing worth worrying about for a group of Taoist priests.

"The layman is Li Muzhi?"

One of them, a female Taoist priest about fifty years old who had been on the high platform, asked in surprise.

"You've also heard of my story~ Ahem, it's me."

Li Mu answered the conversation habitually, but luckily he changed his mind.

"Oh? Junior sister knows about layman Li's past?"

The old Taoist priest raised his head and asked curiously.

"Senior brother, I don't know something..."

It turns out that the Taoist sect that the female Taoist belongs to is located in the three northwest states. Because of the drought, she naturally heard about Li Mu.

It's just that Li Mu was still called Li Tiedan at that time. It was only last year that she accidentally heard that Li Mu had become a baron in Qingping County and changed his name to Li Mu.

"That's it. I didn't expect that lay people could make such great contributions to the people."

When other people, including the old Taoist priest, heard the female Taoist priest's words, they immediately respected Li Mu.

"Don't dare, don't dare, just to survive."

Li Mu answered truthfully.

After all, he was really desperate to survive.

However, others only regarded Li Mu as humble.

Then, under the guidance of other Taoist priests, Li Mu said some classic Chinese Taoist quotations, which made everyone present drink the pot many times.

"I think the layman is a martial arts practitioner. If the layman accepts this jade pendant, he can use it to enter my Ziyang Library at any time. When the layman gets tired of it, he can leave on his own."

Two hours later, after Li Mu and others finished talking, the old Taoist priest handed Li Mu a jade pendant with which he was engraved: Ziyang.

"Isn't this appropriate?"

Li Mu was a little surprised. After all, the skills and so on were the core of the sect and should not be shown to others easily.

"It doesn't matter. The core martial arts techniques of our sect are naturally not included, but there are also many classics of our sect and other common techniques. How much you can learn is due to the fate between the layman and me, Ziyang."

The old Taoist priest said nonchalantly.

"Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful."

Li Mu wanted to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf, but his interest in other exercises prevented him from saying no.

Later, other Taoist priests also expressed that they could visit their sects if they had time.

After thanking them one by one, Li Mu went back to take Black Whirlwind to Ziyang Palace, and then plunged into the library.

Naturally, Bailitan would not hesitate to read books with Li Mu. Anyway, he gained a lot this time. After bidding farewell to Li Mu, he went down the mountain contentedly.
