552 Dan Yunzi’s abnormality
Shangqing sect, Maoshan.
The haze that had lasted for several days had finally passed. Early this morning, the sun broke through the clouds and sprinkled its warm light on the steps, the blue tiles, the stone well, and the great sect that had been passed down for thousands of years.
However, the bright sunlight could not break through the haze in Qing Huizi’s heart.
After the morning class, Qing Huizi met the Supreme headmaster in front of the ancestral hall. The Supreme headmaster, with his silver hair like frost and a ruddy face, was slightly stunned when he saw her. “Qing Huizi, why didn’t you send your brother off when he went down the mountain to travel?”
“I’ll go now.” Qing Huizi lowered his head.
She said her goodbyes in a low voice, lowered her head slightly, and left in small, hurried steps.
The Supreme headmaster watched her back, his warm pupils reflecting the girl’s graceful figure wrapped in a simple Daoist robe. She was youthful and energetic. She turned around the corner and disappeared.
The Supreme headmaster retracted his gaze and looked at the statue of the patriarch. He muttered to himself, ” “A tribulation begets a tribulation, and a disaster begets a disaster. Are the matters of the world predetermined, or are they decided by man?”
Qing Huizi rushed to the foot of the mountain and saw his brother Dan Yunzi, who was about to go down the mountain to travel, as well as the master of the siblings, Tong hai Zhenren, and the master of his father, Tong Xuanzi, Qing Yun Zhenren.
“When you go down the mountain to gain experience, you must abide by the laws and regulations. You can’t act recklessly just because you’re strong.” His master, Daoist master Tong hai said.
“You can’t use your special abilities and Taoist skills in front of people. If you encounter danger and can’t deal with it, inform baoze immediately. However, if we encounter any injustice, we still have to take action. That’s how we disciples of Dao sects should act.”
The Taoist master Qing Yun, who could be considered as half a grandfather, advised him earnestly.
“Don’t break the law.”
“You must resist the temptations of the mortal world.”
“Don’t trust others so easily.”
“Remember to download WeChat or Alipay, and master will send you the money.”
Dan Yunzi nodded in response to his master and the immortal Qingyun’s exhortations. When it was almost time, he turned his head and looked at his sister who had been standing silently on the side.
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh ...
Qing Huizi felt that his dark eyes were like a bottomless abyss that was about to swallow him up. He subconsciously took a few steps back.
Daoist master Qing Yun and Daoist master Tong hai were confused.
“Brother, be careful.” Qing Huizi forced a smile.
Dan Yunzi nodded slightly and looked away. He turned around silently and left along the steps. At the end, he walked along the mountain path, but his back was soon blocked by branches and bushes.
According to the rules, Dao sect disciples were not allowed to return to the mountain for three years, but they could contact their Masters.
Nowadays, with the development of communication, even if they couldn’t meet, they could still video chat, and there was no sadness of parting like in ancient times. For Qing Huizi, whose brother had gone down the mountain to travel, she actually felt relieved.
On the way back to the mountain, the three of them ran into dan chenzi, who was carrying a wine pot and coming leisurely.
Dan chenzi hit it off with the old Taoist who was sweeping the floor. This was something that everyone in Shangqing sect knew. When he came to the mountainside every few days, he would definitely see the two chatting and drinking.
Daoism was not like Buddhism, where alcohol and sex were strictly prohibited, but they also did not advocate drinking.
As the elders of the sect, Daoist master Qing Yun and Daoist master Tong hai had no intention of warning dan chenzi. Dan chenzi’s position in Shangqing sect was too special, and he was the next sect master.
Today, it was not wrong to say that he was the top master of Shangqing sect. He had been in the top S-Class for many years and could break through to half-step Gokudo path at any time.
For such a person, even the Supreme headmaster would not use his status as an elder to pressure him.
Dan chenzi greeted the three people with a smile, ” uncle-master Qingyun, uncle-master Tonghai. Oh, Junior Sister Qing Huizi.”
The first two nodded in greeting and brushed past each other.
Qing Huizi hesitated slightly and stopped in his tracks. Senior brother Dan chenzi ...
Dan chenzi looked at her with a smile and a gentle look.
Seeing his reassuring expression, Qing Huizi was slightly comforted. Senior brother Dan chenzi was like this. From a young age, he was always smiling, never angry, always helpful, and reliable. Other than the occasional frivolity, he had almost no shortcomings.
“What happened?” Dan chenzi handed the wine pot to the old sweeping Taoist and patted the steps beside him.
She had just finished sweeping the steps. It was not dirty, but it was still meant to be stepped on, so it was not clean. Qing Huizi, who had always liked cleanliness, was a little resistant. After thinking for a while, she pressed her hands behind her back and slid down along her full buttocks. Then, she sat down.
“My brother seems to have a problem.” Qing Huizi lowered his voice.
Dan chenzi was stunned.
“You know, we live in the same courtyard.” Qing Huizi said.
The disciples of Shangqing sect usually slept in the dormitory, the kind where four people shared a room, similar to the University dormitory, which was also divided into men and women. This was for the ordinary disciples, and further up was a room for two.
In theory, dan Yunzi’s strength and status in the Shangqing sect made it possible for him to live in a two-person dormitory. However, because of his talented sister, Qing Huizi, he was assigned a courtyard.
here’s what happened. Last week, I was suddenly woken up by a strange sound at night. It was very strange. It sounded like the snores of some kind of beast, but it also sounded like a man’s low growl.
“I immediately got up to check, and when I walked to the yard, I realized that the sound came from my brother’s room. I quickly knocked on the door to wake him up and asked him what was going on. But big brother himself doesn’t seem to know the situation at all, and he even blames me for disturbing his rest.”
“On the second night, I heard that strange sound again. The difference was that this time, I heard a heartbeat. It was the sound of a beating heart. However, when I rushed into my brother’s room, all the noise disappeared. I told him about me, but he looked confused.”
“Are they vengeful spirits?” Dan chenzi asked.
“How can there be vengeful spirits in the sect?” Qing Huizi shook her head. in order to figure out the situation, I got my brother’s permission and set up a barrier in his room. This way, if there’s any movement in his room, the barrier will be triggered, and it will prove that what I heard was not an illusion.”
“Did you find anything?”
“No, I didn’t hear any strange sounds after that night. But the night before yesterday, I was woken up by a strange sound again. This time, it wasn’t in my brother’s room, but in the courtyard. I didn’t turn on the lights. I carefully moved to the window and saw ...”
Dan chenzi felt like he was listening to a ghost story, and his whole body was tense.
“My brother was sitting in the yard with A Bucket of Blood beside him. He kept using his hands to touch the blood and drew strange spells on himself. His face was expressionless, and his eyes were gray and empty. There was no life in them, and he looked like a moving corpse. I was so scared that I didn’t think much of it and rushed out to wake him up.”
“He didn’t seem to know what he was doing and even asked me why he was in the courtyard. I’ve carefully examined his physical condition, and there’s nothing wrong with him. His primordial spirit is normal as well, and there’s no sign of him being possessed. But brother looked very tired and returned to his room to rest after a few words.”
I watched him go into his room to rest, but the moment he turned off the light, I saw a terrible scene. A human face grew out of my brother’s back, and it smiled at me. At this point, Qing Huizi slowly shivered. “I’ve never encountered such a terrifying thing before. It’s just a glance, and I’m having difficulty breathing. It’s warning me, warning me not to meddle in other people’s business.”
...
Dan chenzi thought that it was too ridiculous. It sounded like some kind of terrible vengeful spirit, but Shangqing sect was famous for its ghost tricks. What vengeful spirit dared to make trouble in Maoshan and felt that being a ghost was too comfortable?
“That night, I couldn’t sleep. At dawn, I went to find the Supreme headmaster and explained the situation to him. The Supreme headmaster took it very seriously and personally checked our residence. He also used an octagonal mirror to look at my brother’s body. After that, the Supreme Leader asked me to chant Sutras and meditate with him every day to practice the clear heart incantation.”
“The Supreme headmaster thinks that you’re the one who has a problem.” Dan chenzi suddenly realized. He felt that this matter was strange and unusual.
He didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with Qing Huizi. If he had been possessed by the devil, there would have been signs, and he would have been able to detect it.
However, if dan Yunzi had a problem, the Supreme headmaster would not be indifferent.
Dan chenzi felt that it was quite tricky.
yes. Qing Huizi looked tired. since brother is fine, then the problem is naturally me. It was understandable for the Supreme headmaster to think so. Until now, I don’t even know if something’s wrong with my cultivation or if it’s my brother.”
Dan chenzi thought for a moment. that’s easy. It just so happens that dan Yunzi is going down the mountain to travel. If there are any strange situations in the future, it will be a problem with your cultivation. If there’s nothing wrong, then it’s your brother who’s in trouble.”
Qing Huizi said worriedly,”if it’s my own problem, that’s naturally the best.” But what if it was her brother? He’s all alone at the foot of the mountain with no one to rely on. ”
How good would it be if I had such a sister! Dan Yunzi was truly blessed.
Dan chenzi patted her shoulder to comfort her. He turned to the old Daoist who was sweeping the steps below and asked, ” “Senior, what do you think?”
...
The senior ignored him.
“Senior, I’ll get you another pot of wine.”
The senior ignored him, raised his head, glanced at him, and said unhurriedly, ” “Everything has its own fate. Since we have this fruit, there must be a reason. The so-called myriad forms of life, love, hate, sorrow, and pain are all but delusions, an illusion.”
Dan chenzi scratched his head, ” senior, you are a Taoist. Why are you speaking the Buddhist language? A few days ago, you told me that Daoists are more awesome than monks.”
“This is fate.”
“Senior, be a human.”
what the eyes see, what the heart sees. What you see is that, what that person sees is what you see.
“I understand.”
Qing Huizi left with a heavy heart. His graceful back disappeared among the withered branches. Dan chenzi looked away. senior, do you think she will agree if I ask her to be my Dao companion? ”
The old sweeping Taoist glanced at him,”you want to enter the half-step Gokudo path?” You were a top S-Class five years ago, but it’s not the right time yet.”
Dan Yunzi said gloomily, ” isn’t this too much pressure? I saw the news this morning. Li peiyun actually stepped into the half-step Gokudo path. He was the fastest to enter this realm among the four of them. Li Xianyu’s achievement of half-step Gokudo path was certain. Jie SE’s cultivation is slightly stronger than mine. After all, his master is a Gokudo master and is taught by heaven and earth, while I have to walk on my own. The difference between the rich and the poor.”
“If he becomes Gokudo path one day, won’t I look bad?” Dan chenzi was worried.
“Then why did you choose this girl?” The old Taoist sweeper asked.
Daoism and Buddhism had the saying of entering the world and coming back to the world again. It was very simple. Many things could only be truly understood, seen clearly, and comprehended after experiencing it personally.
So dan chenzi missed women.
With his age and body, it just so happened that he had reached such a time. Of course, he could also keep his body as pure as ice and as pure as Jade. When he was older in the future, he would naturally understand the principle of ‘lust is emptiness’.
Many lonely people in Haotian Taoism were like this.
Dan chenzi didn’t want to wait until that age. He didn’t want to be left behind too much.
“Because she’s the only one in the sect who doesn’t really worship me. If I become Dao companions with her, we can respect each other like guests and won’t bother me.” Dan chenzi said.
After hearing this, the old sweeping Taoist laughed in disdain, ” “You also know that she doesn’t admire you, so how are you so sure that she will agree to be your Dao companion?”
Dan chenzi thought about it and felt that it made sense.
“Don’t get involved with the Li family.” The old Taoist sweeper warned.
“Why?”
“Karma.”
“Oh.”
