Volume 43 The Golden Dome of Master and Apprentice
When the sloppy Taoist Zhang Sanfeng traveled to the world at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, he left a reveal in the depths of the Wudang mountains: "This person will prosper in the future."
Not long after, Emperor Ming built a large-scale construction of Wudang Mountain. According to historical records, as many as 30,000 people participated in the construction of Wudang Mountain. This was only the many people who built Wudang Mountain in the mountains of Wudang Mountain. There were countless miners as raw materials such as civil, wood, stone, etc. It took more than ten years to finally build a mountain in the world - Wudang.
The Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty sent four people to seek Taoist Zhang Sanfeng. Zhang Sanfeng was hidden but disappeared. The three emperors searched for it in a row but could not find Zhang Sanfeng. As for the emperor's search for immortals, there are many records in the records of the Grand Historian. Qin Emperor Han, Wu, Tang, Song, Taizu, Ming Emperor, all searched for immortals and sought the immortals of the world. Unfortunately, history records in the ending, and they all returned empty-handed. Bodhis came to meet the emperor of the Southern Dynasty at that time, but they dispersed without any speculation.
In the history of Wudang Mountain, there are not many Taoists who are in the emperor's mind, and there are even more Taoists in the deep mountains. Wudang Mountain is a collective name for the mountains. The real Wudang Mountain inside is divided into many schools, each with secret masters. These secret masters are all selected by Taoists to teach their disciples the lineage of his own school, and the methods of cultivation have their own advantages. Just like the Buddhist methods, there are also many methods such as closed-word practice, behavior practice, sudden enlightenment practice, chanting scriptures and other methods.
The atmosphere of Wudang Mountain was harmonious and friendly. The bus walked all the way up the mountain, passing by several small Taoist temples, and finally stopped in front of a majestic Taoist temple. Liu Zongyuan and his apprentice Han Luo got off here.
Standing in the mountains of Wudang, looking at the majestic Taoist temple in front of him, Han Luo's chest was filled with an unknown heroic spirit, and his aura was always stirring and prolonged.
In front of you, the Taoist temple, the red wall and green tiles, there was a large tripod burning with the fragrance of the dragon, three small bridges, and the river flowed in front of the Taoist temple. Liu Zongyuan and Han Luo walked across the bridge and came to the Taoist temple. Liu Zongyuan closed his eyes, as if he was sucking the breath of this Taoist temple. Han Luo looked at the Taoist temple with red wall and green tiles, and always felt extremely familiar. Liu Zongyuan bought two tickets to the entrance hall at the ticket booth. There was a middle-aged Taoist nun in the ticket booth, wearing a dark blue Taoist robe. The two entered the Taoist temple to check the tickets and entered the Taoist temple.
The Taoist temple is built against the mountain, with several main halls, and the steps are gradually rising. After turning the door, a towering hall is exposed in front of the world. The majestic stones on the mountain are quaint, with a vertical plaque "Zixiao Palace" hanging on it, and a horizontal plaque "Qingdu in the Yunwai" hanging above the hall gate. Perhaps it is not the peak season at this time, and the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple are very rare, and they look a little deserted. Only one or two young Taoist priests walk by occasionally.
Liu Zongyuan and Han Luo climbed up the steps. There were not many steps far away. When walking up, they realized that the steps were quite high. Looking back, the halls below were completely visible.
Liu Zongyuan said something to Han Luo and walked away. Han Luo stood alone on the wide platform on the left, looking at the Eight Hundred Years Taoist Temple, and a strong aura wandered around his body. He didn't realize that he also noticed a trace of the feeling in his body, as if it was different from usual?
There were three or four tourists, one or two Taoists, Han Luo stood on the platform and looked at the Taoist temple. An old Taoist priest appeared on the platform. While walking, he saw Han Luo. He swung his body not far from Han Luo, put his legs on the stone railing, and moved his body.
Han Luo was watching the Taoist priest as soon as he entered the sight. To be honest, he felt a little regretful. When he came to Wudang, he wanted to see the Taoist priest. When he saw the old Taoist priest, he naturally looked at the old Taoist priest curiously.
When he saw the old Taoist priest moving his body, his eyes were slightly brighter. Could it be that he was a Wudang boxer?
The old Taoist squatted a few times and looked quite strong. With the reputation of Wudang Xianshan, he would probably be respected by the world as a master of Taoism.
"Where are you from young man?" the old Taoist suddenly asked.
Han Luo smiled and said, "Subject x."
The old Taoist said nothing, continued to swing his body and left after a while.
Han Luo looked at the Taoist no longer and began to climb up the steps. After climbing to Zixiao Palace, he stepped over the threshold and saw an ancient golden statue enshrined in the center. This god is the Emperor Zhenwu.
Han Luo looked at the Zhenwu statue, and a sudden unknown shock occurred in his chest. He stared at the Zhenwu statue. He suddenly felt an indescribable feeling, as if the Zhenwu Emperor was communicating with him.
Communication, communication between people and images? It seems that many voices appear in the ears and the heart.
Han Luo seemed to be unable to withstand this "pressure". He subconsciously turned his head and was about to leave the hall, but a gentle hand was placed on his shoulder. The master's words were gently touched: "Continue to watch."
Han Luo knew that he was a master, so he turned around and continued to look at the statue of Zhenwu Emperor. Zhenwu Emperor seemed to have put pressure on him to communicate. Han Luo's heart trembled slightly, as if the pressure caused by this strange feeling made him feel uncomfortable.
Han Luo's heart gradually became uneasy, it was so weird! This feeling could not be explained clearly in words, as if Emperor Zhenwu was alive.
He finally couldn't bear this strange pressure. After turning his head, he saw Liu Zongyuan full of relief.
"Let's go." Liu Zongyuandao turned around and walked away from the hall. Han Luo followed closely behind. Before leaving the hall, he looked back at the Zhenwu Emperor. It was not until he and his master Liu Zongyuan walked out of the Zixiao Palace gate that he felt normal.
After 25 years after Han Luo, who had already become a master in that era, he studied with a future Taoist Taoist, and he asked him about the opportunity today!
Liu Zongyuan didn't explain Han Luo naturally didn't ask. Han Luo felt that he was weird and didn't take it seriously.
The two of them took the bus and continued to go to the deep mountains of Wudang.
The bus stopped in a parking lot, and the driver said, "I've arrived at Tianzhu Peak."
Tourists began to get off the bus one after another, probably because they were approaching the top of Wudang. Even though it was winter, it could not hide the enthusiasm of tourists visiting the top of Wudang.
Liu Zongyuan and Han Luo climbed the stairs and went to the cable car ticket entrance to buy two cableway tickets, but were told by the staff that the cableway maintenance in winter was not open to the public. Liu Zongyuan and Han Luo walked on the mountaineering road, and the steep steps were winding up. This mountaineering road is the famous Ming Road in Wudang. This road was built by Emperor Ming to build Wudang. There were many tourists along the way. Liu Zongyuan and Han Luo walked for a long time but did not see each other, because it was noon. The two continued to climb the mountain after eating instant noodles at a street stall.
There were three heavenly gates at the top of the peak of the Mingdao in Wudang. Han Luo had a very strong body and had a lot of endurance. After reaching the Santianmen in one breath, he was sweating all over. Liu Zongyuan's breath was always calm and long.
Many tourists must take a rest on the way to climb the Three Days Gate, and it is very difficult for soldiers to climb the Three Days Gate in one go.
Behind the three-day gate is the golden top.
Wudang Mountain worships the Emperor Zhenwu, and the Emperor Zhenwu is also placing black turtles and snakes. This myth is in modern technology, a photographer took a photo overlooking the golden top in the sky.
The photo also gave the audience amazement the magic of nature and the magic of Wudang Mountain!
The golden top is built on the back of a mountain that looks like a black turtle from the sky.
There are many tourists on the Golden Peak. Looking at the Wudang mountains here, you can clearly see the scene of the seventy-one peaks facing the Golden Peak, and you can also visit the scenery of the sea of clouds and purple mist.
Liu Zongyuan and Han Luo stood in front of the golden top, looking at the golden top with the incense, Liu Zongyuan said: "The trip to Wudang is over."
Han Luo looked at the majestic atmosphere of the sea of clouds and said, "It's worth it."
Liu Zongyuan said: "Wudang Mountain was named Taihe in ancient times. Emperor Zhenwu and the sloppy Taoist Zhang Sanfeng practiced Taoism here. Emperor Ming built Wudang Mountain. Wudang Mountain has been around for 800 years. It has become the first mountain under the giant Taoism. However, in Wudang, there are many people who study Taoism and have few people who practice Taoism. They talk about the Taoist Xuan Zhen Sutra, but they waste time empty. Unfortunately, they have not lived with Zhang Sanfeng for the same age!"
Unfortunately, I haven’t lived in the same era with Zhang Sanfeng!
This is Liu Zongyuan's regret.
Han Luo listened to the master's words, and he had only read Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, but he knew nothing about the real Taoism. But he could also hear the strong sense of regret for the master's words. The master's general meaning was: "It's a pity that he can't discuss Taoism with Zhang Sanfeng."
But he did not understand Liu Zongyuan's other half's intentions.
How long is Liu Zongyuan longing for a famous person like Zhang Sanfeng in this world!
Since Sanfeng, Taoism has been no Taoist, and no one has ever sent people to search for it!
This huge Taoist figure is falling, and there is no Taoist who can stand in the sky to make the emperor look up to his path. Liu Zongyuan hopes that there will be a Taoist in this world who can wait side by side with Zhang Sanfeng like such an eternal Taoist!
...
...
On the way down the mountain, Han Luo's breath gradually calmed down. This time, he began to approach Wudang Mountain, and his breath rose step by step, reaching the peak of the huge atmosphere in his heart on the golden peak. Then the agitation breath calmed down step by step with the pace of going down the mountain.
During this time of arrival in Wudang, Han Luo always felt that he was different, but he couldn't say it. He didn't want to ask his master.
Liu Zongyuan returned to Wudang Mountain under the Wudang Archway. His aura was late, turning from continuous wandering to turbulent, reaching the top all the way, and resonating with the Wudang land!
"Looking for immortals."
Liu Zongyuan, who "borrowed the mountain to climb the top" and returned to the peak, said to himself gently.
Chapter completed!
