Uncle Li also took elixirs. There were even a group of alchemists in the palace to provide elixirs, but then I saw the animal test I had created. After knowing the harm of these medicines and stones, I issued an angrily order. The alchemists in Chang'an disappeared without a trace within one day. At least no one dared to say that they had become local elixirs by themselves. After several months of news, most areas of the Tang Dynasty now have no market for the cultivation of external elixirs, and many alchemists have already transferred to the local area. They started farming, or turned to practice internal elixirs. Of course, in some remote places, there were still alchemists who were cheating people of money, but this was a dangerous job.

As for internal alchemy, qi circulation, guidance, breathing, and so on, who has seen people practiced a ghost pill? At least until later generations, such high-tech appeared, no comrade claimed to have refined an inner pill.

It can be said that my small change in medicine experiments actually accelerated the decline of Taoism, which really made me feel ashamed and lowered my head. I don’t know why, but I always feel a little ashamed.

Di Liushuang, beside her, continued to look at me curiously, with a smile on her lips, laughing, not very much, but she would never encourage me to do this, after all, her current identity is still a little Taoist nun.

Yuan Tiangang was drinking tea in a depressed state, and he was embarrassed to directly say that it was my fault. Besides, this was caused by the innate defects and shortcomings of Taoism, but I just exposed one defect in advance.

"I know it. I don't blame you for this matter, but I want to ask you for your brother. Well, I have discussed it with you and fellow Taoists for a long time, but I can't come up with a strategy to stop my Taoism from decline. I really feel sorry for Your Majesty's holy grace for admiring my Taoism. I know that I love my brother's talent. Therefore, I came here to look for my brother today to seek a plan. I hope my brother will no matter what..." Yuan Tiangang said this and stopped, looking at me quietly, while sucking tea, waiting for my answer.

It was a headache, a headache. To be honest, it was really a big deal for me. But I was also unintentional. Yuan Tiangang stared at me with resentment and looked very resentful. He also understood very well, knowing that this was also caused by me. Yuan Tiangang was afraid that he would have to understand the bell and the person who tied the bell was in mind. He wanted to come to me, a talented man in the Tang Dynasty, to think of him a solution, or to come up with an idea. After all, it can be regarded as replenishing the merits and helping Taoism.

But I didn't dare to let Uncle Li take back Cheng Ming, or asked Uncle Li to issue an order to tell everyone that it's good to believe in Taoism. But why is it good? You have to say something, right?

I frowned and thought about the advantages and disadvantages of Buddhism and Taoism. You are the ancestors, and the Three Pure Dao Lords are above me. What should I do? I thought about the incense stick and felt a headache, but I still couldn't think of any way to change the current dilemma of Taoism. To be honest, in terms of doctrine, Taoism is indeed more than just Buddhism.

In fact, it is this kind of follow-up of the doctrine of inaction that has made Taoist Priest Yuan and others lack an enterprising and reform spirit. It is precisely because of their original doctrine that restricts the development and further expansion of Taoism.

So since you have to find a way to remedy it, you have to start from the most basic, that is, from the doctrine. Otherwise, even if the emperor takes action and insists on Taoism, Taoism will still be no match for Buddhism.

"I have already learned a little bit about the words of Taoist priest. In my opinion, it is because my Taoist teachings have inherent shortcomings and defects." I picked up Liu Lu and handed them over to the tea, grinned at the little sister to express my gratitude. I drank it dry and handed it to Liu Shuang, "Is there any tea drinking like this?"

"Well. I'm used to it, so pay attention next time." As soon as I looked up, Yuan Tiangang nodded and stroked his beard, as if he wanted me to continue talking.

I have roughly an idea in my mind now, but it’s not very mature yet. It doesn’t matter. Let me tell Master Yuan first. At least he can calm down so that he won’t be entangled. Clear his throat and continued, "Everyone is afraid of death, isn’t I right?"

Yuan Tiangang nodded with emotion: "My dear words are very reasonable. In the world, all things will eventually return to dust and become immortals. If you can transcend things outside the world, you are afraid that only a few people will be afraid of life and death. Even I cannot avoid the common people." Isn't this all nonsense? I will just admit that you are afraid of death and will be quarrel for a long time.

Of course, I only dare to complain in my stomach, and I can't really say it out loud. It would be strange if Yuan Tiangang didn't turn against me for a duel. I would be very relaxed to fight this old guy alone, but the problem is that we are a gentleman. Fighting with an old man is really harmful to my face.

"The Taoist priest's words are too humble, but, Taoist priest, the simple word "fear of death" has fully interpreted the differences between Buddhism and Taoism." I said confidently, well, if you don't have respect, you have to pretend to be confident. People must first give themselves confidence, so that others will have confidence in you.

Fortunately, I often sit with Taoist Master Yuan and others to discuss the Tao, which made me understand a lot about the differences between Buddhism and Taoism. After listening to my careful explanation, Yuan Tiangang was only able to make some effort. Who did not want to live forever in the ancients? But the problem is that Taoism originally pointed out to the world that the road has collapsed. However, Buddhism has drawn a big cake for people. Although it cannot satisfy their hunger, you can at least see it.

I cleared my throat and asked Liushuang to pour me a cup of tea before I picked it up. The little girl coughed wildly like a cold. She pretended to take a sip, closed her eyes, um, and then she felt endless aftertaste. Then she raised her brows and squeezed at Liushuang to express her gratitude. This time, Liushuang did not show my face, but to my surprise, she actually responded to me with a smile, beloved. After this iron-faced Taoist nun smiled, her eyes turned into crescent moons, which looked very beautiful. The corners of her mouth bent and the rosy lips became softer. To be honest, if this girl often smiled, she would probably be smoothed by the stone threshold of the Qingyangguan Temple. At least I thought this girl was too cute and charming when she smiled.

"Cough cough cough..." Which bastard is it? I disturbed me to look at the beautiful girl. When I raised my head, I saw Yuan Tiangang's strange expression. Liushuang's face turned red, and she glared at me hatefully. She stood up and ran out of the quiet room.

"Oh, my brother, I'm really thinking about the problem. I'm really sorry. In fact, Taoist priest, in my opinion, it's the moment of life and death of my Taoist sect. If I can't get through this level, I'm afraid..." I fooled me, stood up, and I'll be a bit hot first, my face was a little hot, um. It seems that my face is not as good as a disciple. I'm very pleased that I still retain the essence of a gentleman.

Fortunately, when I saw Yuan Tiangang looking at me with a gaze, I quickly continued to speak: "Although it is a critical moment of life and death, the Taoist priest, but I think this is a good opportunity to be unbreakable and not established. If you grasp it well, my Taoism will flourish for thousands of years." I came to Yuan Tiangang's forehead and gritted my teeth and said in a word.

Liu Shuang had just walked back, and her shame seemed to have diminished a lot just now. Seeing me leaning against Master Yuan’s forehead with a fierce look, she almost covered her mouth and exclaimed, looking at me blankly.

Yuan Tiangang kept moving backwards. What's wrong? I was afraid that my saliva would be sprayed on your face? Who was that? I had to go back to my original position and sit down, and then gestured to Liushuang, indicating that I was discussing knowledge with your master, not fighting or doing other immoral behaviors.

Yuan Tiangang indeed raised his sleeves and wiped his face: "Liu Shuang, go and have fun with those senior brothers. If you have something important to you, you should discuss with the young master."

Liushuang responded and had to walk out of the quiet room. After the footsteps were gone, Yuan Tiangang pretended to use the whisk to drive away the mosquitoes, came to me, and whispered: "What are the tricks of brother? You can't break or establish them. If you have an epiphany, I still think, yes, brother Yi Ai, please tell me quickly." It seems that he was excited by me.

"Actually, it's easy for Taoist priests to turn their hands around." I stretched out a big slap, lit up in front of Taoist Yuan's nose, and then turned his hand back again, then withdrew his hand voluntarily.

"I?" Yuan Tiangang asked me puzzledly with his finger, with a confused expression and a confused look.

"That's right." I nodded and glanced at the door. After confirming that there was no one, I came to Yuan Tiangang's ear: "Master Taoist, since you are the few leaders of my Taoism in the dynasty, why don't you improve the teachings of Taoism?"
