Myths and Dharma, starting from Erlang Shen

"Isn't the immortal joking?"

Ji Ren looked at Ge Xianweng and said.

Lingbao Sect, the second sect in Daqi, has nearly one hundred thousand disciples spread all over Daqi, and has tens of millions of followers, not counting the disciples from the other five countries.

After all, many people in other countries also believe in it.

"No, although the old Taoist likes to tease children, he will not joke about things like the deputy head." Ge Xianweng said.

"Is the immortal trying to use this to offset the favor?" Ji Ren said.

Ji Ren, who had become an elder, could only show a smile and thought to himself, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so if everyone gives such a big gift, they won't ask me for new year's money.

He didn't understand why Ji Ren was his senior brother. Even if his master was lower than Master Zhuge, he had started earlier than Ji Ren.

A small number of them realized that their ancestors were promoted to extraordinary, and their mentality was indeed a little eccentric, but most of them were really too happy, so they suddenly forgot the rules. Although Taiping Academy's rule of not being allowed to fly, generally speaking He said that he secretly flew into the air without being caught, so he turned a blind eye, so he didn't pay attention, and this ended up causing such a scene.

After all, it’s the boss who owes the debt.

All the Taoist priests wanted to cry, but they still had to bow obediently and pay homage to their uncle.

Everyone was shocked. This situation was completely different from what they thought.

At this time, Ge Xianweng's voice sounded again.

"Thank you, junior brother." Hearing Ji Ren's words, Ge Changqing was overjoyed. Looking at Ji Ren, his eyes were full of gratitude. No wonder he became famous in Daqi at a young age, made great contributions, and became the most dazzling figure in Daqi today. This It should.

The main reason is that a gray-haired old man called him senior brother. He was a little embarrassed and called him old. He was afraid that he would avoid him in the future. If he was petty, he might really dare to cause trouble for him and take a step back. ,good for everyone.

The seniority is here, what else do you want?

All the Taoist priests bowed their heads obediently and did not dare to refute.

"Immortal, they must have been happy for a while and lost their sense of proportion. Immortal spared them once, and I think they will change their ways in the future." Zhuge Qinglan on the side said in sympathy.

I can't afford it.

The Lingbao Sutra is said to have been taught by Yuanshi Tianzun to Ge Xuan, the founder of the Lingbao Sect. Initially, there were only one article with several thousand words. It is not difficult to copy it. However, later people continued to add annotations and understandings, and it expanded to sixty. One article.

What do I want from you, the deputy head of the Lingbao Sect in name only?

No, I am the deputy head, and I have to manage these Taoist priests who started to be self-righteous because of your breakthrough, and then you lost your favors. In the end, your sect became better and you owed me less favors. Such a thing that kills two birds with one stone, you can make a lot of money. .

Upon seeing this, the other Taoist priests also knelt down, kowtowed and admitted their mistake, feeling terrified in their hearts.

Thank you for this gift.

"I am not a direct descendant of the Lingbao Sect, so suddenly becoming the deputy head of the Lingbao Sect will definitely make people unhappy. The powerful King of Heaven has his own dignity. Most of them will not listen to my orders. When the time comes, if I force the order, they will be displeased. I will arouse the resentment of the Heavenly King, and there may be all kinds of messy conspiracies and calculations. What kind of trouble will that be? There will be people like my senior junior brothers and nephews who will regard me as a thorn in their side, and then rely on my good relationship with the immortal. Are you going to take the risk to kill me? If I don't kill him then, it's impossible. If I kill him, the immortal will inevitably blame me. In this case, I will not get the benefits, but I will lose the favor of the immortal in vain. It's a completely loss-making deal, why should I agree?" Ji Ren asked.

The smile on the old Taoist's face suddenly fell. If the occasion wasn't inappropriate, he would have slapped himself twice to make you talk too much.

"Master, have you achieved extraordinary breakthrough?" A white-haired old Taoist wearing a soap-colored Taoist robe looked at Ge Xianweng and asked.

"Master, everyone was so happy because they found out about your breakthrough that they lost their sense of control. Please forgive me, Master." The old Taoist who spoke before noticed Ge Xianweng's anger and said bravely.

"Huh?" The smile on Ge Xianweng's face faltered and he said, "Did you hear clearly? I am talking about the deputy head of my Lingbao sect. Our Lingbao sect has many masters all over the country, and you have become the deputy head. After you become the leader, all the powerful ones below you and above ten thousand people will obey your orders.”

When Ji Ren saw this scene, he shook his head in his heart. These Taoist priests are all honest people. If they don't have a clear explanation, then just make your own judgment. There is nothing you can do if you are asking for death now.

To be precise, Ji Ren had an advantage by being his junior brother.

Somehow, the old Taoist understood his master's meaning, but he didn't want to understand. He suddenly felt that his master's breakthrough was not a good thing.

"Senior Brother Ji Ren?" When the old Taoist heard this, his eyes suddenly popped up and he looked in disbelief. He called him "Senior Uncle Zhuge Yuquan". After all, he was the Prime Minister's uncle. He called him "Senior Brother Prime Minister". There was nothing to say, but What's the point of asking Ji Ren to be his grandson's senior brother at this age?

"What are you doing standing still? This time, if it weren't for you, Senior Uncle Jinxia and Senior Brother Ji Ren, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to break through as a teacher." Ge Xianweng looked at his disciples and said, "Pass this order, my disciples from the Lingbao lineage are not allowed to have any contact with the Zhuge family. "The Ji family is in trouble. If the descendants of the Zhuge family and the Ji family are in trouble in the future, they must help each other and must not violate it. This is the ancestral precept."

"We have absolutely no such intention." The old Taoist said quickly. If you want to say that because of Ge Xianweng's breakthrough, everyone in the Lingbao sect is happy, and they will show off their power when they see the disciples of Taiping Dao in the future. Such thoughts are there, but it can be said that they will suppress Taiping Dao and the royal family. , this really doesn’t exist.

"That's right, I have practiced for half my life, traveled to six countries, and finally achieved enlightenment here and achieved a transcendent breakthrough." Ge Xianweng nodded lightly and said with a smile.

It's a pity that Zhuge Yuquan took it away. If he had known earlier, he would have come back decades earlier.

"No, I am willing to do so. I can even copy it twice." The old Taoist said quickly.

Old man, that's enough for you, just pretend I don't exist.

After all, he had started before Ji Ren was born.

The old Taoist didn't know how to argue, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and finally he knelt on the ground to plead guilty.

"Young man has such a calm mind. You should join our Lingbao Sect. You will definitely shine in Taoist practice in the future." After hearing Ji Ren's answer, Ge Xianweng smiled and nodded.

"Brother Ge Dao has high morals and high respect. We are friends with each other, so I should call him senior brother."

Jia Ru, who had just come up from the side, saw this scene with a subtle expression on his face.

Ge Xianweng's words were very soft, but when he said them, everyone felt their breath suffocated, as if someone was holding their throats, as if even heaven and earth were repelling them.

"The main thing is that you, Master, and I have accumulated a lot of experience, and things will come naturally. But without them, I don't know when I will meet this opportunity." Ge Xianweng did not tell about the Samadhi True Fire, but changed his words.

Ji Ren glanced at Ge Xianweng warily.

"Master, are you copying the original version of the Lingbao Sutra or the later version?" asked the old Taoist.

He said simply, without shouting loudly, but it was clearly heard in everyone's ears.

Listening to Ji Ren's words, Ge Xianweng thought it seemed reasonable. He thought about it and said, "How about I owe you a favor?"

Because you owe the boss a favor, and the boss doesn't want you to die before you return the favor to him. But if the boss owes you a favor and is unlikely to repay it, it's better for you to die.
