no.4 Tianxian Palace

Li Yuan suddenly said in a deep voice: "The Centennial Immortal Master was originally a celestial immortal. Now I have named Huang Junming, the Centennial Immortal Master, as the Taoist Master of the World. It is suitable for the general Taoism of the world. I am willing to see that I will not worship me. From now on, the Ministry of Works will choose a spiritual land near Chang'an and build a Tianxian Palace. It will be limited to two months for the Immortal Master to live in. I will be given 40 official slaves and eight maids to serve the Immortal Master. On the day the Tianxian Palace is completed, twenty Taoist priests enter the Tianxian Palace...."

It has been a month and a half since Li Yuan visited Huang Junming last time. During this period, countless people came to see Huang Junming. Immortals, so strange! People in Chang'an learned through word of mouth that there were really immortals descending to the earth in the Tang Dynasty! Immortals are in Xuandu Temple!

This was a great discomfort for Huang Junming. He originally planned to appreciate the scenery of Chang'an, and every time he walked, there was a large circle of people surrounding him and looked at him with strange eyes. He always felt that he was a monkey locked in a zoo cage in a modern zoo, and was watched by people and could not escape.

In desperation, Huang Junming had to stay in Xuandu Temple and became a mortal in the Tang Dynasty. But who would have thought that when he ran to the Taoist temple to hide, there would always be high-ranking officials and nobles who came to the temple to meet. Tang, Dou, Wen, Liu, Yin and other families who followed Li Yuan to rebel against the Tang Dynasty. Lu, Cui, Zheng, Wang and other major families all sent important clan members, or the head of the family came in person. The purpose was nothing more than to ask about the official route, the source of wealth, the ancestors, and the descendants. Huang Junming was completely annoyed by the old fortune teller who wore sunglasses on the bridge.

"Captain Xian, Chief Xian, the officials of the Ministry of Works are looking for you." Daoyuan stood outside Huang Junming's door and shouted softly.

Huang Junming threw away the straw stalk in his mouth and pushed the door out. After traveling through so many days, the cigarette he brought with him had long been gone. However, for a person who is more addicted to cigarettes, it is really not used to not holding the things in his mouth when he has no cigarettes. So when he is addicted to cigarettes, he had to hold it from the side of the road.

"Zhou Pengfei, the head of the Qingguan Office of the Ministry of Works, has met the century-old immortal master." Before Huang Junming could walk to him, the green-robed official bowed first and said.

Huang Junming didn't want to procrastinate at this time, so he asked straightforwardly: "Master Zhou, come to see me, what's the matter?"

"Return to the Immortal Master, last month Your Majesty ordered us to choose a place to build the Heavenly Immortal Palace. Now the general part has been built. The official of the emperor comes to invite the Immortal Master to check it out." Master Zhou continued to bow and answer.

The Tianxian Palace is built on the hillside of the east mountain of Chang'an City. It is surrounded by mountains and waters. The hall is magnificent and solemn. At the foot of the mountain, there is a golden glass archway with three rooms, four pillars and seven roofs. The archway and Chiwen's eyes are also inlaid with flame beads. It is instantly dazzling.

Similarly, the Glazed Archway is the mountain gate of the Tianxian Palace. When passing through the four pillars of the mountain gate, I saw two couplets written on it: "The guests come and talk about the mystery, and the guests go like clouds to nourish their hearts", "The green mountains and green cypresses and immortal palaces, and the Taoist family in the deep smoke" is memorable.

Huang Junming was still surprised that he could build such a mountain gate in a month and a half, and at the same time he had some expectations for other buildings in the Tianxian Palace.

"Immortal Master, what do you think of this mountain gate?" Master Zhou saw the shock in Huang Junming's eyes, pointed to the open space in front of the archway and said proudly: "In a few days, the two gilded bronze lions built by the Ministry of Works will be placed here. The Tianxian Palace we built, just looking at this archway, is one of the best in the country."

Huang Junming didn't answer after hearing this, and walked in along the open red-lacquered door of the archway. Behind the archway was a landscape garden, a stream flowed out from it, and three white marble bridges crossed the stream water, making it look elegant and quiet, but there were few living things and a little vitality.

Walking through the garden and walking to the Sanqing Hall, the Sanqing Hall is the main hall of the entire Taoist temple, which enshrines the Taiqing Realm Da Chi Tian Daode Tianzun, the Yuqing Realm Qingwei Tianyuan Shi Tianzun, and the Shangqing Realm Yu Yutian Lingbao Tianzun. They are the three people who often hear about the Sanqing, Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian.

When you leave the Sanqing Hall, the Sanguan Hall is on the east side. The middle of the hall is worshipped with heavenly officials, earthly officials, and water officials. The east and west sides are worshipped with the three-star true kings of blessing, fortune and longevity, Emperor Zitong of Wenchang, Shennong, the Wencai God Bigan, the Wucai God Zhao Gongming and the Wusaint Guan Yu eight gods.

Next to the Sanguan Hall is Cihang Hall, located in the northeast of the entire Tianxian Palace. The Cihang Hall worships Taoist Cihang and the Queen Mother. The Jade Emperor was indeed invited to the Jade Emperor Hall on the east side, and at the same time, the hall also worships the Earth Mother, Dou Mother, and sixty Jiazi.

There is also a Juxian Temple west of the Sanqing Palace. However, unlike Xuanduguan, the Juxian Temple in the Tianxian Palace enshrines the statues of sixteen gods. Each statue is one meter and two meters wide and two meters long, and is embedded in the scroll of the red sandalwood heavenly cicada silk. There are two couplets on both sides of the Juxian Temple, one is: "If you have a heart but no desire, you will come by, good will bring good fortune, good will bring disasters." The other is right and wrong, no hidden, and the guardian of the Dharma and all immortals will play the orthodox religion, punish evil and promote good, and the heavenly storm flows through the ethereal spirit rain and moisten the sutras."

After seeing the halls of the Tianxian Palace, the head of the Ministry of Works, led Huang Junming to the back of the Sanqing Palace. Behind the Sanqing Palace was a square with huge rocks. On the brick walls on both sides of the square, there were two red and black characters, which corresponded to the octagonal high platform protruding in the middle of the square. I don’t know why. From a distance, the Tai Chi Yin and Yang fish on the platform seemed to turn with the sunshine and the Bagua Talis beside each other, shining brightly.

Continue moving forward directly opposite Huang Junming's future residence, the Hundred Years Hall, the name of the hall is taken from Huang Junming's Taoist name. Not far from the sign of the Hundred Years Hall, there is a huge cauldron. The cauldron is full of fine sand, and three huge incense sticks are inserted on it. The purple smoke is vague, just like the residence of an immortal.

When he walked here, Master Zhou said to Huang Junming: "Immortal Master, this hundred-year-old palace will be your residence in the future. As for this big tripod, the emperor considered that the immortal master was originally a body of a celestial immortal who could not offer himself, so he established this big tripod here. In the future, people come to see him and incense again to worship you."

Huang Junming felt embarrassed after hearing this, but he couldn't say it clearly. He had to point a five-story wooden building on the right side of the Centennial Palace awkwardly and said, "Mr. Zhou, what is that?"

Master Zhou followed Huang Junming's fingertips and said: "Immortal Master, that is the Sutra Library, full of Taoist scriptures collected by the royal family. They were just given to you by the emperor. Your open space is a martial arts field for martial arts practice." After saying that, he turned around and pointed to the two consecutive rooms behind him and said: "This is the residence of all Taoists, all of which are single rooms, and after this is the kitchen and toilet. On the mountain behind your hundred years, our Ministry of Works has built a rockery pool for the Immortal Master and established two pavilions for the Immortal Master. This summer, the Immortal Master can go to escape the heat. Of course, the Immortal Master is the body of an immortal. He is not afraid of the cold and heat, but we have done useless work."

"It's okay. Although I don't avoid the cold and heat, it's good to treat the scenery in this temple." Huang Junming waved his hand and said, "Thank you, Lord Zhou. I wonder when I can enter the temple to practice?"
