Chapter 396
"'High mountains overlook the Wei River, green peaks penetrate the sky', this is Zhongnan Mountain where Quanzhen Sect is located. More than ten years ago, I learned skills here, so you can go up and take a look!" Outside Zhongnan Mountain, a feathered man with a star-crown robe said to a child, and his words were quite touching. After the Mongolian burned the mountains, the Quanzhen Sect scattered all over the world. Although the Chongyang Palace was later built with the support of everyone, it was different from before. Many familiar scenery changed drastically. Although it had been eight years since Mongolia burned the mountains, the traces of the fire could still be seen on the mountain, which shows how miserable it was at that time.
"Will we be here in the future?" the boy asked without knowing his thoughts.
The feather kept walking and said to the little boy: "The teacher's residence is Chixia Villa by Dongting Lake. We are here in Zhongnan Mountain just to pay homage to the ancestors. We will still go south in a few days."
The little boy said "Oh" and followed the feathers up the mountain. After a while, these two figures appeared on the mountain road. As time went by, the figures became smaller and smaller and gradually disappeared.
These two were Fang Zhixing and Zhang Junbao. Time froze, and it was more than a month later. It was already mid-July. After Fang Zhixing woke up, he went into seclusion for several days to sort out his harvest. Then he used his strong spirit to imprint all the Shaolin Temple books into his mind, and then left. Before leaving, Zen Master Lekong expressed his gratitude to him and discussed and restrained both parties. He refused to go to the Huashan Sword Contest.
Fang Zhixing's purpose in this trip to Shaolin can be said to have achieved his goal, and his harvest was even more unexpected, and he did not want to force him. He knew that Shaolin Temple was very famous and he would never participate in the martial arts gatherings that occupied an important position, so he did not get involved in this point. After taking Zhang Junbao down the mountain.
After going down the mountain, Fang Zhixing found a Taoist temple and changed into two costumes. Because he practiced the Great Sun Seal to achieve a pure body, his hair was gone, and his hair had not fully recovered. He had to wear a Taoist crown to cover it up. Zhang Junbao was a disciple who promoted the Quanzhen Taoist tradition in his heart, so he naturally had to enter the Tao, so he changed to a Taoist boy. This time he took Zhang Junbao to Zhongnan Mountain to visit the Chongyang Patriarch and officially worshipped Quanzhen.
At this time, except for Qiu Chuji, all the seven sons of Quanzhen had passed away. Qiu Chuji was also preaching in Baiyun Temple in Yanjing, and rarely returned to Zhongnan Mountain. He was getting older and rarely participated in martial arts affairs. Even if he had a great martial arts event such as Wu and Huashan Sword Controversy in Junshan, he only sent his disciple Song Daoan back to Zhongnan Mountain to preside over the presidency. Fang Zhixing went up the mountain and visited this person first.
After Song Daoan took over as the head of the Quanzhen Sect eight years ago, he has been working diligently to expand the strength of the Quanzhen Sect. With the support of Qiu Chuji, Yin Zhiping, Li Zhichang and others, he has been firmly in the position of the head. Although he does not have the prestige of the Qi Zi of Quanzhen, he is also very respected in the Quanzhen Sect. He knew that in the Quanzhen Sect, in addition to his uncle Zhou Botong, he should be the highest martial arts master and young. He can be said to be a sect protector in the future. When he heard the news that Fang Zhixing returned to the mountain, he immediately led someone to greet him.
The two had not seen each other for many years, and after meeting, there was a greeting. Song Daoan asked about the child Fang Zhixing's leadership. He knew that he was a newly recruited disciple of Fang Zhixing. If he was included in the Quanzhen Sect Wall, he immediately responded. Although Fang Zhixing only had only Yang Guo's disciple, he was recognized as having extraordinary methods of teaching disciples. Song Daoan only heard about Yang Guo's martial arts and did not experience it personally. However, half of Fang Zhixing's disciple, Shen Qingchen, could almost be called the highest martial arts person on Zhongnan Mountain. Usually, people from the martial arts world come to worship the mountain, and Shen Qingchen often came to compete for the Quanzhen Sect. Now Fang Zhixing has another disciple, which is naturally worthy of joy.
Fang Zhixing did not explain much about Zhang Junbao's origin. He did not want to do it in a big way. He also knew that today was an auspicious day. He arranged for Zhang Junbao to visit the portrait of Master Chongyang and his son Hao Datong, and then met him and others, and officially joined Quanzhen's disciple.
After all this, Fang Zhixing talked to Song Daoan about the Junshan Martial Arts and Huashan Sword Contest. It’s okay to talk about the Huashan Martial Arts. There are many martial arts events like Junshan Martial Arts. Although Fang Zhixing invited Huang Rong, Lu Guanying and others to host it, he also had to rely on Quanzhen. The Quanzhen Cult has developed very fast in recent years and wanted to go south to preach, so he naturally hit it off. Although Song Daoan was still in Zhongnan Mountain this time, Li Zhichang, Yin Zhiping, Song Defang and others followed Qiu Chuji in Yanjing without returning. Wang Zhitan, Qi Zhicheng, Cui Zhifang, Sun Zhijian, Zhang Zhisu and others had already set off south to assist Yang Guo and others in handling various matters. With these people, the burden on them would definitely be much easier.
"As for the above Huashan, Master Qingchen has already gone to clean up. Now Junior Brother Xu and Junior Brother Ji are guarding there, nothing will happen. Don't worry, junior brother." Song Daoan introduced the manpower arrangement and told Fang Zhixing. If you want to say that the sect that is most enthusiastic about the Huashan Sword Competition can be said to be the Quanzhen Sect. When Wang Chongyang won the title of the world's number one in the Huashan Sword Competition, he laid the foundation for the Quanzhen Sect for decades. Now Fang Zhixing held the third Huashan Sword Competition. Even if he cannot win the title, he can still demonstrate the strength of the Quanzhen Sect and make the Quanzhen Sect more prosperous.
Fang Zhixing vaguely knew what Song Daoan thought, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He held a swordsmanship in Huashan to explore the future. Although he had a clue, it would be a good thing to invite experts from all over the world to argue. As for how to argue at that time and whether to decide the best in the world, Fang Zhixing did not pay attention to it. And the Quanzhen Sect benefited from it, and he was happy to see it.
"I heard that my junior brother has been in Shaolin for the past few months, and I don't know what's going on?" Song Daoan thought of the news he had heard these days and asked Fang Zhixing. Although Li Mochou had already come to Zhongnan Mountain, he did not inform others of Fang Zhixing. Song Daoan knew this and came here himself. As the world's largest sect, the Quanzhen Sect is really powerful and has a wide range of sources of information. Fang Zhixing once exchanged Taoist robe on the road, so Song Daoan naturally knew his whereabouts.
Fang Zhixing did not hide it all the way, and he was not surprised by this. He was about to remind Song Daoan about the dispute over Buddhism and Taoism. When he heard about this, he explained the purpose of his trip in detail, and said to Song Daoan: "Shaolin Temple has sent people north over the years, and it is not unwilling to surrender to the Mongolian side. Although I have reached an agreement with them with force this time, it is difficult to ensure that Shaolin Temple will have any other means in secret. The head teacher must be careful to deal with it and not give them an opportunity to take advantage of it." (To be continued)
