Chapter 124 Master and Old Friend "Taishang Laojun said the Scripture of Purity and Tranquility. Laojun said: The Great Way is invisible, giving birth to heaven and earth. The Great Way is ruthless, moving the sun and the moon. The Great Way is nameless..." When Jiang Lin woke up, he heard the Taishang Laojun's Sutra of Eternal Purity and Tranquility being chanted in the Quanzhen Ten Directions rhythm. "Well……" Jiang Lin sat up. He wanted to be reserved, but he couldn't help but stretching. All the limbs were exerting strength, and then suddenly relaxed. A feeling of silent relief made Jiang Lin couldn't help but speak out happily. At the same time, the sound of chanting also stopped. Daoye then opened his eyes and asked with a smile, "Awake? How was your sleep?" "This time I have a good sleep and I feel refreshed and energetic." Jiang Lin stood up with a smile, straightened his clothes and bowed.
"I pray that the Taoist priest will grant me a name so that I can meet him." The Taoist said with a smile: "I am Shen Weiyuan. Whether it is in terms of seniority or friendship, you will not be wronged if you call me uncle." "Meet Uncle Wei Yuan." Jiang Lin bowed again to greet him. Taoist Master Wei Yuan nodded, motioned Jiang Lin to sit down, and said, "It's still early, sit down and chat with me." Jiang Lin sat down, glanced at the sky and found that a ray of dawn had appeared on the horizon. He slept very comfortably that night. He sighed again, and then sat cross-legged. Taoist Master Wei Yuan looked at Jiang Lin and sighed, "After what you have said, I'm afraid all the high-level practitioners in the whole Zhou Kingdom know your name." "The Dharma Master has enforced the precepts, and millions of people have been saved. This is a great merit." Jiang Lin scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Many Taoist masters and brothers have talked about this along the way." "Hahahahaha." Taoist Wei Yuan laughed, and then suddenly said softly: "My son, you have suffered." The smile on Jiang Lin's face paused, and then he was stunned. "Teng!" Jiang Lin stood up suddenly and looked at Taoist Wei Yuan in disbelief. Taoist Wei Yuan looked at him, smiled, and said, "Sit down, sit down. You are an adult, why are you so impatient?" Jiang Lin came back to his senses, slowly sat down cross-legged, and asked impatiently: "Uncle Master...what did you just say..." "I didn't say that." Taoist Wei Yuan shook his head and said nothing more.
Jiang Lin nodded silently, pursed his lips, and clenched his hands tightly. Master is not dead! I knew it! Such a bastard old thing should be a disaster to his life for thousands of years! Only that old bastard would call me that just now! I knew it! I knew it! Jiang Lin closed his eyes, and a trace of tears unconsciously flashed across the corners of his eyes. Although it had been speculated a long time ago, now that it could be thoroughly confirmed, how could Jiang Lin not be inexplicably excited? He opened his mouth, wanting to ask where the old man was, what he was doing, how he was doing, and if he could see him. But Jiang Lin knew very well that the Taoist Master Weiyuan in front of him would not say anything. If he wanted to say something, he would have said it long ago and would not wait for Jiang Lin to ask. However, enough is enough. Jiang Lin was already very satisfied knowing that the old man was not dead, or at least not completely dead. Jiang Lin took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then looked at Taoist Weiyuan in front of him. "Uncle Master, I came to Kyoto this time because I have something to do." At this point, Jiang Lin can basically be sure that the Taoist priest in front of him can be absolutely trusted. Putting aside other things, although the old man is indeed a bastard, since you are his friend, there can be nothing wrong with that. "I know." Taoist Master Wei Yuan didn't wait for Jiang Lin to speak, and said with a smile: "Whatever you want to do, just do it boldly. I will take care of everything for you." Jiang Lin looked surprised when he heard this. It seems that the relationship between the Taoist priest in front of him and his old man is extremely close. Moreover, it seems that the old man also knows what is happening to me now? So the old man is in Fengdu now? Jiang Lin thought silently. Taoist Wei Yuan smiled and said, "The water in Kyoto is deep at one end and shallow at another." "In this land, there is no longer any distinction between immortals and mortals. The rule that immortal cultivators are not allowed to show themselves in public has also long since disappeared." Jiang Lin nodded thoughtfully. The world was in chaos right now. There were foreign enemies surrounding the Zhou Kingdom, and there were also people in the country with evil intentions. We dare not say that the country will be in ruins, but there are already signs of chaos and disorder. Some people like peace, while others like chaos. This is true not only for mortals, but also for practitioners. Those who practice magic or evil ways naturally hope that the world becomes as chaotic as possible. Even among those who are on the right path, there are those who practice the Dragon-supporting Technique and are preparing to go out of the mountains to prove their truth. "I say it's a deep water because there are so many royal nobles and wealthy families in this area. I don't know how many nobles there are in the past. I don't know what's involved behind it." Taoist Wei Yuan said slowly: "It is said that the water is shallow..."
As he spoke, Dao Master Wei Yuan looked at Jiang Lin and said with a smile: "For you kid, at least most practitioners are unwilling to provoke you." For practitioners, even if they are on the same righteous path, unless they belong to the same Arctic system, few people want to have too much involvement with a black law wizard. "Besides, you are more confident than just that, right?" Facing the smiling eyes of Taoist Wei Yuan, Jiang Lin also smiled. Of course there is more to it than that. At that time, the Arctic Exorcism Institute ordered Jiang Lin to thoroughly investigate the matter of the ghost fetus, and he found out that three evil people had sacrificed in Hangzhou. But at this point, things are not over yet. King Song is also a chess piece, and a casually discarded one at that, with greater implications behind it. Feng Lixiao used the methods of the Six Caves Heavenly Demon to interrogate the Black Tooth Monk. He did not ask many questions, but obtained an absolutely credible piece of information. Kyoto. Everything is in Kyoto. Therefore, Jiang Lin is still carrying out the Arctic Order, and this case is not over yet. He dare not say that there are no taboos in Kyoto, but with the North Pole's imperial edict, there are many things that Jiang Lin does not need to care about. "How is it, do you have any idea?" Taoist Wei Yuan asked with a smile. Jiang Lin thought for a moment and said, "It's nothing more than fighting the enemy with our troops and covering the flood with earth." "As long as the younger generation is in Kyoto, it is not the younger generation who is anxious." Taoist Master Wei Yuan stroked his beard and smiled, saying: "To respond to all changes with constancy is the highest virtue." "However, I still want to give you a reminder, or give you a clue." "This Kyoto is so complicated after all, it would be good for you to have a starting point." Hearing this, Jiang Lin stood up, bowed and said, "Uncle Master, please teach me." "Last night, I saw three Qis, one red, one purple, and half red and half purple." “Maybe, there is something to be gained.” Taoist Weiyuan said this, looking Jiang Lin up and down and raised his eyebrows. "The Zhenwu magic sword is a good thing. It contains the Zhenwu righteous qi inside and is covered with the Zhengyi divine talisman outside." "I'm afraid that only those old idiots in Taisu Palace can make this item." "Well, since you've come to the old Taoist's place, if you don't bleed a little, you'll inevitably be disturbed by the bastards in secret. You'll also be outdone in public." Taoist Wei Yuan touched his cuffs and took out a wooden box the size of a fist.
"I am not as wealthy as Zhengyi, but this elixir is the only thing I can offer." "Take it and take it." Jiang Lin took the small wooden box without stuttering, and said with a smile, "Thank you, uncle-master!" "Ha." Taoist Wei Yuan laughed and scolded, "I said that the bastard had a proper disciple, but I never thought that he had the same ruffian spirit as me." As he spoke, the Taoist glanced at the sky outside. It was already early morning, so he waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." “Remember, don’t be reckless or arrogant.” "Yes, junior, please keep this in mind." Jiang Lin bowed solemnly, then said goodbye and left Laojun Temple. For a moment, Taoist Wei Yuan was the only one left in the hall. As the old Taoist's eyes opened and closed, a divine light flashed and fell before his eyes, appearing as a streak of incense. "Old bastard, your disciple is pretty good. I have to find a way to trick him into coming." Taoist Wei Yuan spoke with a smile. "You're just fooling me!" A lazy voice came from within the incense. "Hehehehe..." Taoist Priest Wei Yuan sneered and said, "Others dare not dig up the only seedling of the Black Law lineage, but I, the old Taoist, worship the Taoist ancestor. How can I be afraid of you, Beiji?" The voice showed no sign of weakness, and sneered: "If you dare to dig today, I will lead all the black law mages to squat at the gate of Tushita Palace tomorrow." "If anyone asks, just say that I am here to act as a guard dog at the gate on the orders of your Taoist Priest Wei Yuan." "Then let's see how you end it." Upon hearing this, Dao Master Wei Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, sighed, and muttered to himself: "I am also crazy. I actually competed with a bastard like you in shamelessness..." "Heh, you are just an old mortal who has not yet achieved immortality, and you dare to challenge me, the Taoist priest?" The voice sneered and said, "Master Dao, I am working in Fengdu now. Be careful. I will pass a note to you and ask the King of Hell to cancel your life and death book immediately." Taoist Wei Yuan raised his eyelids, not wanting to bother with this bastard, and said sternly: "Daoyou, the waters in the capital of Zhou Kingdom are very deep. Even if you have the Black Law as your basis and the North Pole as your life, if you are not careful, there are still some shady tricks that will make your disciple fall into eternal damnation." "But you let the old Taoist say it so easily. What exactly do you want to do?" The voice replied: "Of course I know the depth of the water in this area, otherwise why would I need you?" He said this as a matter of course, in a tone that said, "I'm relying on you." Taoist Priest Wei Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "I am just an old man in the mortal world who has not yet achieved immortality. What can I do?" "If I'm not careful, I'll be crossed out by you, the Lord of Fengdu, in the Book of Life and Death."
"I am not qualified to be your disciple's supporter." "Hey! You kid!" The voice cursed angrily, and then said with a smile: "Brother Dao, my disciple, isn't that your disciple? You and I are brothers from different fathers and mothers!" "I can……" Taoist Priest Wei Yuan waved his hand and dispersed the incense in front of him before he could finish his words. I'm too lazy to listen to that guy's fake corny talk. "This bastard Niubi is really good at hiding it. He didn't even tell me?" Taoist Priest Wei Yuan shook his head, and suddenly a black energy appeared in front of him. Without even looking at it, he waved his hand and suppressed the black energy directly under the statue of Laojun. "I told you to speak but you didn't. Now you want to speak but I don't want to listen." Taoist Master Wei Yuan said with a smile, there are not many opportunities to outwit this guy, so of course we have to cherish them. "The Tao that can be spoken of is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named..." Inside the Laojun Temple, the Taoist priest was reciting the Tao Te Ching without even looking at the wilted black qi. ………… Jiang Lin naturally couldn't hear the noise of Taoist Wei Yuan and his old man arguing. After he left Laojun Temple, he walked straight towards the hall. Eat as much as you can, otherwise once you enter Kyoto, you won’t know when your next meal will be. Jiang Lin thought so, ate until he was full, then shamelessly went into the kitchen and asked for five large pancakes. "It's worthy of being the best place in Kyoto. The bread here is more solid than other places." Jiang Lin weighed the bag in his hand and left Shangqing Temple with satisfaction. As for the three energies of one red, one purple, and half red and half purple mentioned by Taoist Weiyuan, Jiang Lin did not look for them deliberately. Kyoto is a city with so many things to deal with, so it would be nice to have a thread to follow, but if there isn't one, it wouldn't make much difference. "Taking the initiative to find someone is different from meeting them by chance." Jiang Lin muttered with a smile, looked down at his arms, and smiled: "Don't you think so?" "Chiji..." Little Qingluan popped its little head out from Jiang Lin's arms. "It's dawn, don't sleep any more, why do you sleep so much lately?" Jiang Lin said with a smile. The little guy slept in his arms all night yesterday, and he didn't wake up when he was chatting with Taoist Weiyuan.
"Jiji!" "You are growing. What does it have to do with me eating your rations? Besides, I only ate a little of you..." "Chichi!!" "Okay, okay, I've eaten most of your food. I'll get you some more later." "Do you really have to hold a grudge like that?" "Chi chi chi chi!!" "Okay, the rest is yours." Jiang Lin and Xiao Qingluan chatted with each other and left Shangqing Temple along the bluestone road. Walking out of the bamboo forest, Jiang Lin looked towards the east. All I could see was the towering city. Although it was a dewy morning, the city gate was already crowded with people. "Kyoto..." Jiang Lin muttered something inexplicable and walked over. "Ta Tata..." Halfway through the journey, Jiang Lin heard the sound of horse hooves, but he didn't pay any attention to it and walked to the side. "Xu..." Unexpectedly, when Jiang got close to him, the knight on horseback suddenly pulled the reins. The young man in red with delicate features lowered his head and asked with a smile, "Where are you going, Taoist priest?" "Of course, I'm going to Kyoto." Jiang Lin raised his eyes and smiled, without saying much. He nodded and walked forward. "Tap..." The young man in red did not give up, but continued to follow. "I met the Taoist priest in front of the Shangqing Temple last night." Hearing this, Jiang Lin smiled and said, "At that time, the layman seemed to have two companions?" Jiang Lin did see three young men in brocade clothes last night, but he really didn't have the energy to pay much attention to them. But now it seems that the second encounter has something to say. "They were both still asleep. I ran out alone." The young man in red said this, dismounted from the horse, and walked side by side with Jiang Lin, leading the horse. "What are you going to do in Kyoto, Taoist priest?"
Jiang Lin did not answer, but stopped, turned sideways, and stared straight at the young man in red in front of him. "Taoist Priest..." The young man in red felt a little shy under that look and could not help but lower his head, his cheeks flushed. Just as I was distracted, I heard the Taoist priest speak. "She is a royal noble, but she is walking alone in the guise of a man. This is like standing under a dangerous wall." (End of this chapter)
