Seeking longevity from the world of Si Teng / Seeking longevity from the world of the Republic of Ch

Just like that, the day flew by quickly.

The next morning.

On a trail in the Zhongnan Mountains, three Taoist priests with different styles walked freely and freely.

Si Teng's Taoist robe is a miniature version of Qin Li. Qin Li is holding a whisk, while Si Teng is carrying a small bundle, which looks very weird.

And Zhong Liquan on the side is even more strange. Although he is a Taoist priest, he never wears Taoist robes. stop.

There is neither the posture of immortality, nor the feeling of jade trees facing the wind.

Zhongliquan's appearance is not very good, so he is easy to be seen when he is traveling, unlike Lu Dongbin, he is popular no matter where he goes.

Qin Li looked at Zhong Liquan in front of him and couldn't help laughing.

Because he is a fairy, Dust can't get close to him, which has caused him to never change his clothes for hundreds of years, and he has always looked like this.

Especially the big belly, if Qin Li didn't know what was going on, he would have thought he was drinking.

"Friend Zhongli, I don't know if you have a direction for this trip." Qin Li asked.

Zhong Liquan fanned his cattail fan carelessly, and pointed to the east with a smile.

"Okay, just listen to fellow Taoist and go east." Qin Li looked at the direction Zhong Liquan was pointing at and said.

After all, the three of them headed east along the mountain path.

………………

Just as Qin Li and his party were leaving Shandong, Yuan Tiangang also asked his disciples to pack up and salute, and they were ready to leave, because if they didn't leave, they might not be able to leave.

Although the emperor was slapped from the palace yesterday by Qin Li, but Bao Buqi would come again today, he didn't want to cause trouble so he had to leave.

And even if the emperor doesn't come, those rich and powerful families who hope to achieve Taoism and longevity will come, as well as those fellows.

When the time comes, he will not see it or not, so why stay in the right and wrong place to find pain for himself.

Yuan Tiangang explained a few words to the disciples in the temple, telling them to pack up and salute quickly, and then go somewhere to wait for him, while he himself went out of the temple gate to Daxingshan Temple.

Of course, he also saw the vision of Daxingshan Temple that day, but because he wanted to stabilize his state, he didn't go to investigate. Now he had to investigate before leaving.

Yuan Tiangang came outside Daxingshan Temple and handed over his name card.

Yuan Tiangang is well-known in Taoism and Buddhism, so the monks of Daxingshan Temple received him.

"I don't know Daoist Yuan, what is the purpose of this visit?" asked the Zhike monk.

"Pindao has met Master Yuanzhen, and he is really curious to come here this time. The rosy light a few days ago, vaguely implies that the temple is the center, so Pindao came here to know what happened that day? "

"Amitabha, so that's the case." Yuan Zhen said with his palms folded.

"This matter is not a secret thing in the temple. Many monks, including the pilgrims who came to worship the Buddha, saw it. .”

Chapter 160 Three, Old and New Hangu Pass

, starting from Si Teng's world to seek longevity

Not only did Yuanzhen think this way, but everyone who was standing in the Daxiong Hall thought this way at that time. This matter cannot be kept secret unless the temple kills all the pilgrims present.

But Daxingshan Temple is not that kind of black temple, and even if they really kill those pilgrims, they can't hide it, because those pilgrims are not all ordinary people, some of them are family members of powerful families who come to fulfill their vows. The temple can no longer be opened, and these monks have to be buried with those people.

Therefore, Daxingshan Temple did not hide much but let it ferment naturally, because this is not something shameful, it can be used to publicize their temples if it is spread out, and the arrival of Arhats proves that the teachings and myths and legends they preached are true. of.

Arhat's arrival is definitely a big event, not only for them Daxingshan Temple, but also for Buddhist sects all over the world.

From a small point of view, of course, Daxingshan Temple has become a veritable famous temple in the world, not just the support of the imperial court. From a large point of view, it has found a factual basis for the legend of Buddhism in the world.

Yuan Tiangang walked behind Monk Yuanzhen. He originally thought that Yuanzhen would take him to some places with few people or guest rooms, but he didn't expect him to take him to the Daxiong Palace.

"Master, what is this?" Yuan Tiangang looked up at the palace and asked.

Yuan Zhen clasped his hands together and glanced at Yuan Tiangang, and then said, "The Taoist priest comes with me."

After all, go up the steps to the main hall.

Yuan Tiangang glanced at the huge Buddha statue in the hall, but still followed.

When a Taoist enters the Daxiong Palace, the owner has no objection, so what else can he have.

After all, it wasn't him who was ashamed, but the monk who brought him in.

Yuan Tiangang followed Yuanzhen into the main hall and arrived at the statue of Arhat. At this moment, in front of the last Arhat of the statue of Arhat, there were more than a dozen old monks sitting cross-legged, all of them were high-ranking members of the temple.

"Teacher, please take a look." Yuan Zhen stretched out his hand and said.

Qin Li looked in the direction Yuan Zhen was pointing at, it was a golden arhat.

At first Yuan Tiangang didn't understand Yuan Zhen's meaning, he frowned, but after seeing all the statues, he suddenly found a problem.

There were ten statues of Arhats in front of him, there should only be nine statues, nine statues on one side make up eighteen Arhats.

Yuan Tiangang glanced back at the other one, and only after confirming that there were only nine arhats did he turn around and look at the tenth arhat.

"The Taoist priest may have discovered that the vision that day was caused by the appearance of this Arhat." Yuan Zhen said slowly.

As he spoke, there seemed to be light in his eyes.

"Arhat is alive." Yuan Tiangang read, and began to instinctively examine the statue of Arhat in front of him carefully.

This arhat has only a cassock and a string of Buddhist beads on his body, no other weapons, no animals under his feet, and no other movements, just sitting cross-legged on the altar.

Looking at Yuan Tiangang, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. The face of the statue of Arhat was so similar to Qin Yue.

At first, because the difference between the two was too great, even though he felt a familiar feeling from the statue, he didn't think in Qin Li's direction.

Now after releasing his mental power, he realized that the face of the statue of Arhat was exactly the same as that of Qin Yue.

"Senior." Yuan Tiangang suddenly remembered that Qin Li asked him about the temple a few days ago, and the last suggestion he gave was this Daxingshan Temple.

"Why did Master Yuanzhen's statue of Arhat suddenly appear here? As far as I know, there should be only eighteen Arhats, for one more statue?" Yuan Tiangang asked eagerly.

"The thing is like this. A Taoist came to our temple a few days ago and said that he would lend the land of our temple to this venerable..."

After Yuan Tiangang heard Yuanzhen's narration, the way he looked at the statue of Arhat changed. If he still can't guess that the Arhat is Qin Li at this time, then his 50 years of life will be in vain.

He came to the statue and saluted Qin Li respectfully before turning around.

"This is Taoist?" Yuan Zhen looked at Yuan Tiangang's actions with a puzzled expression.
