Chapter 770: Junior Sister, Old Seven is not a good person either!

Su Mingzhe slowly spoke out what he thought was right, with sincere words and a genuine expression, and finally he looked at everyone with a sharp gaze.

He thought he could receive more admiring looks.

Unfortunately, when he looked around, he saw that everyone was looking surprised and even distant.

In the end, Lu Xueqi gritted her teeth and said:

"Brother, although our Qingyun Sect and Tianyin Temple are both one of the three righteous sects, our Qingyun Sect belongs to the Three Pure Ones Taoist lineage, and worships: Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, and Taiqing Daode Tianzun. Whatever 'Buddhist verses' you talked about today, you must never talk about them in front of other people again. Otherwise, if Uncle Cangsong finds out, he will definitely think that you are stealing skills from a master outside and your Taoism is not firm. At the very least, you will be punished to face the wall in the ancestral temple in the back mountain to reflect on your mistakes."

"real or fake?"

Su Mingzhe couldn't help but smile after hearing what Lu Xueqi said:
"I just said two Buddhist verses, and you have to face the wall and reflect on your mistakes. Is it that serious?"

"real."

Seeing that Su Mingzhe didn't seem to care, Wen Min quickly told him an old story.

More than fifty years ago, that is, after the last Seven Clans Martial Arts Competition, according to the rules of Qingyun Sect, the best winners of the competition had to go out and travel the world to bring fame to Qingyun Sect.

One of the disciples made friends with a young monk from Tianyin Temple while traveling. The two had a good relationship, traveled together, and learned skills from each other. In the process, he learned a lot of Tianyin Temple's methods of subduing demons.

After he returned to the mountain, he reported his experience to his master. Then he was punished by Taoist Cangsong, who was in charge of punishment, to go to the back mountain to reflect on his mistakes by facing the wall for ten years.

When everyone present heard this old story and thought of Taoist Cangsong's harsh punishments, they all looked sad.

"It's so ridiculous!"

After listening to Wen Min's story, Su Mingzhe couldn't help but widen his eyes and wanted to curse Taoist Cangsong, the undercover agent of the evil cult, for his sinister and vicious intentions.

However, before he opened his mouth, he thought again and swallowed the curse.

The cultural and knowledge level of the "Zhu Xian" plane is similar to that of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

In this world, there is no concept of country, no idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and serving the country, but there is great emphasis on the inheritance of teacher-student relationship.

I have no evidence to support my claim, and if I want to scold Cangsong for being insidious and despicable, I'm afraid not only will no one believe me, but the entire Qingyun Sect and even the entire righteous path will think that I'm a heretic who is betraying my teacher and ancestors.

"Forget it. It won't be too late to reveal his identity after Monk Puzhi from Tianyin Temple arrives."

Having made up his mind, Su Mingzhe's expression returned to normal. Facing the worried eyes of the crowd, he couldn't help but laugh:
"Since Senior Sister Wenmin told such an old story, I will also tell a story."

"Before I entered Qingyun Sect, I heard a story about an old Taoist priest and a young Taoist priest."

"In the story, an old Taoist priest travels around with his apprentice to save people."

"The old Taoist priest came across a family funeral and found out after asking that the woman had died during childbirth. The old Taoist priest used his power to understand the mysteries and realized that although the pregnant woman had a difficult delivery, she still had a chance of survival. He immediately broke open the coffin and personally delivered the baby for the woman."

"The young Taoist priest was very surprised when he saw this, because his master often taught him that as a monk, when he goes out, he must be careful to avoid alcohol, meat, money and sex."

"But his master actually delivered a baby for a woman today, which made him doubt his master's morality."

"After the old Taoist priest returned the baby to the family, he continued on his journey with the young Taoist priest."

"The young Taoist priest was very worried and kept this incident in mind. After two days, he was confused and asked the old Taoist priest why he violated the monks' precepts and touched a woman."

When Su Mingzhe told the story to this point, his tone was light and he looked at everyone calmly.

Everyone present, both men and women, laughed somewhat unnaturally.

Only Tian Ling'er was still young and couldn't understand what was going on. She could only blink her big eyes and look at Su Mingzhe curiously, waiting for him to continue.

Seeing that everyone's emotions had calmed down, Su Mingzhe slowly continued to speak:
"When the old Taoist heard what his disciple said, he burst into laughter and said, 'My disciple, I was helping that woman give birth and only touched her briefly. After the baby was born, I forgot about it. But you, on the other hand, have been carrying that woman on your mind for such a long time?'"

Just as the female disciples of Xiaozhu Peak were pondering the meaning of the story, Du Bishu, who had returned at some point, broke the silence with a grin and said:

"Junior Brother Su, did you make up this story yourself?"

Everyone was puzzled and looked at him immediately: "Did Junior Brother Su make up this story?"

"Not bad!"

Du Bishu saw everyone looking at him and said proudly:

"Before I entered the mountain gate, I heard a similar story, but the content of the story was that an old monk was crossed by a woman and questioned by a young monk."

Du Bishu was afraid that people would not believe him, so he quickly told the story of the old monk carrying the woman across the river and then being questioned by the young monk.

After listening to Du Bishu's story, everyone was skeptical and looked at Su Mingzhe, waiting for his explanation.

Su Mingzhe smiled slightly, spread his hands, and said calmly:
"Does it matter whether the man in the story is helping a woman give birth or carrying her across a river? Does it matter whether it's done by an old monk or an old Taoist priest?"

"Whether it's an old Taoist priest delivering a baby or an old monk carrying a woman across a river, they are all doing it with a heart to help the world."

"But you, after listening to a story that encourages people to be good, are obsessed with Buddhism and Taoism. Aren't you carrying too many shackles in your hearts?"

When everyone heard the word "shackles" again, their faces suddenly turned embarrassed.

Just now, Su Mingzhe accused Lu Xueqi of carrying too many shackles, which was why her practice was ineffective, and even forced her to practice, which led to various injuries.

Now, Su Mingzhe continues to accuse everyone of being shackled and clinging to "Buddhist and Taoist sectarian concepts", which is almost a slap in the face.

Su Mingzhe didn't know what everyone was thinking. Seeing everyone looking ashamed, he smiled faintly:
"Finally, I would like to give you a sentence: Buddha is the Tao!"

Su Mingzhe knew that these disciples had average comprehension abilities, and that they would definitely need some time to comprehend what he said. So, after saying this, he turned around and went to have a picnic without waiting for them to comprehend.

A group of disciples were left looking at each other, then they began to whisper and discuss in low voices.

As the saying goes, if you don’t understand the truth, you won’t understand it!
As practitioners of Taoism, these disciples have never experienced the mundane world. The "Tao" in their eyes is actually just the "Tao" of their teacher.

If they want to strengthen their faith in the Tao, they must go through some trials and tribulations in the mundane world.

On the other side, Su Mingzhe checked the prey hunted by Du Bishu.

There were six hares, two pheasants and a deer in total.

Su Mingzhe started peeling and washing while making a fire.

In front of this group of Qingyun Sect disciples, Su Mingzhe did not need to hide his abilities and directly used his magic power to process various barbecue ingredients.

In just a few moments, Su Mingzhe finished processing the ingredients and started smoking and grilling them.

The disciples of Xiaozhu Peak looked at Su Mingzhe who was preparing a picnic for everyone, and for a moment, they felt a sense of confusion in time and space.

Just now, Junior Brother Su acted like a master, talking eloquently, explaining the methods of cultivation to everyone and instilling spiritual chicken soup.

Now, Su Mingzhe has transformed into a chef, looking calm and confident, with skillful movements, without any airs of a master from the Shangqing Realm.

The transformation of identity was so natural that the disciples of Xiaozhu Peak could hardly believe it. They suspected that they were dazzled and had made a mistake.

"Senior Brother Song, Senior Brother Su is in your Dazhu Peak. Does he still need to cook?"

Lu Xueqi had the strongest psychological fluctuations.

After she became a disciple of Shuiyue of Xiaozhufeng, she was pampered and cared for in every way by her master and senior sisters since she was a child because of her intelligence.

It can be said that at Xiaozhu Peak, Lu Xueqi doesn't need to do anything except practicing.

Now compare it to Su Mingzhe who is also a genius. Lu Xueqi is really...too 'out of touch'.

Du Bishu saw that the person asking the question was Lu Xueqi, the most beautiful disciple among the disciples of Xiaozhu Peak. Without waiting for the senior brother to answer, he rushed to explain to her:
"Junior Sister Lu, this is the rule of our Dazhu Peak. The 'important place of the kitchen' is always given to the youngest disciple. Xiaoqi joined our Dazhu Peak the latest, so the task of lighting the fire and cooking is naturally given to him."

Among the disciples of Xiaozhu Peak, except for Lu Xueqi who doesn't care about worldly affairs, all the other disciples know the rule of Dazhu Peak.

After all, they have been disciples for decades and have some understanding of the rules of other peaks.

It’s just that rules are rules, but shouldn’t an exception be made for a talented disciple like Su Mingzhe?

Just like the story Su Mingzhe just told, rules and other things should be used flexibly.

The disciples from Xiaozhu Peak came to visit Su Mingzhe today, destined to receive a spiritual baptism.

The picnic is over.

Su Mingzhe and several fellow brothers saw off the senior and junior sisters from Xiaozhu Peak.

Su Ru then appeared with Tian Buyi and told them about their decision to let Tian Ling'er, Du Bishu and Su Mingzhe go down the mountain to gain experience.

"Dad, Mom, can I go down the mountain too?"

Tian Ling'er didn't expect that she could go down the mountain at the age of ten!

She thought that if she wanted to go down the mountain to gain experience, it would take at least another ten or eight years!

"When you come down the mountain, you must listen to your two brothers!"

Tian Buyi sighed and looked at his young apprentice.

Just now, when Su Mingzhe was explaining the cultivation method to the disciples of Xiaozhu Peak, Tian Buyi and his wife also hid aside and listened.

Both husband and wife agree with Su Mingzhe's point of view.

It was after hearing Su Mingzhe's opinion that Tian Buyi decided to change the three-person team originally planned to be led by Du Bishu to Su Mingzhe as the leader.

With the approval of Tian Buyi and Su Ru, Su Mingzhe, Tian Ling'er and Du Bishu quickly packed their bags.

"What a pity! I only got to see Xueqi's sword dance once. I hope I can get down the mountain quickly and come back quickly this time!"

Su Mingzhe was not very eager to go down the mountain to gain experience.

After all, for him, the mundane world down the mountain had long lost its appeal.

However, Tian Ling'er and Du Bishu were particularly excited.

Du Bishu had only come down the mountain once since he went up eight years ago.

Tian Ling'er was even more miserable. After she was born, she spent most of her time in Dazhu Peak and Xiaozhu Peak.

She had only come down the mountain once, seven years ago, when she was three years old and stayed at her grandfather's house for a few days.

Now, Tian Buyi let Tian Ling'er go down the mountain with his two senior brothers. Tian Ling'er thought that she could play freely, so she was naturally excited and didn't sleep well for several nights.

In the blink of an eye, it was time to go down the mountain.

Tian Buyi had already prepared luggage for the three of them.

Su Ru also refined two furnaces of fasting pills, detoxification pills, etc. for the three people.

"Master, Master's Wife, and all the brothers, take care!"

Su Mingzhe was open-minded. He rode on a tall horse first and galloped down the mountain.

According to the rules, the three of them were not allowed to wear the Qingyun Sect disciple uniforms during this trip, but had to dress like ordinary people.

The three of them rode down the mountain, singing all the way, looking quite carefree and unrestrained.

He went straight out of the Qingyun Sect’s mountain gate and away from the defense formation.

Tian Ling'er smiled this time:
"Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother, where should we go first after we get down the mountain?"

"Of course we'll go to Heyang City first!"

Su Mingzhe and Du Bishu laughed in unison.

Heyang City is the human city closest to Qingyun Gate. Because of its important geographical location and prosperous business, it has a permanent population of 200,000 to 300,000.

In ancient times when productivity was low, a city with a population of 200,000 or 300,000 was undoubtedly a large city.

The book once wrote that it would take about half a day to fly from Qingyun Mountain to Heyang City by sword.

This means that the straight-line distance is about three hundred miles.

Now Du Bishu has no magic weapon and cannot fly in the air.

Su Mingzhe and Tian Ling'er could only ride horses together and take various detours in the mountains.

The original straight-line distance of three to five hundred miles suddenly became a thousand miles.

The three of them rode on horseback, sometimes taking in the scenery and sometimes resting, but their speed was not much faster than walking.

It was not until dark that the three of them left Qingyun Mountain.

"Sixth Senior Brother, Little Junior Sister, it's getting dark. Let's go to Caomiao Village ahead to rest for a while and continue our journey tomorrow, shall we?"

Seeing that the two were still in high spirits and walking along the road, Su Mingzhe hurriedly called out to them.

"Okay, I'm hungry too, so I'll just eat something from down the mountain."

Tian Ling'er really felt a little hungry and wanted to eat the food made by Su Mingzhe.

Du Bishu's eyes flickered, and then he looked at Su Mingzhe and asked in surprise:
"Seventh Brother, how do you know that Caomiao Village is ahead? Did you sneak down the mountain?"

"Yes, I have been here."

Su Mingzhe did not expect Du Bishu to be so attentive. He only said something casually, but he let him catch a little secret. He had no choice but to explain casually:
"When I was practicing sword flying before, I went down the mountain several times and came to Caomiao Village."

"Seventh Brother, have you only been to Caomiao Village? I'm afraid you've been to Heyang City as well?"

Du Bishu retorted triumphantly.

He thought to himself that if he were to practice flying with a sword and there were no other distractions, he would definitely go to a prosperous place like Heyang City to play often.

So, putting himself in Su Mingzhe's shoes, he guessed that Su Mingzhe must have been to Heyang City.

"I don't!"

Facing the questioning of the Sixth Senior Brother, Su Mingzhe flatly rejected it:
"It takes a whole day to go to Heyang City and back. I have to cook for everyone every day, so I don't have that much time to go to Heyang City."

After listening to Su Mingzhe's explanation, Tian Ling'er quickly helped out:
"That's right, that's right, Sixth Brother, please don't judge others by your own standards and wrongly accuse Seventh Brother!"

Du Bishu didn't expect that his junior sister would be on the same side as his junior brother. He was so angry that he couldn't help but speak and revealed a secret of the Qingyun Sect disciples:
"Junior sister, don't be fooled by Lao Qi! He is not a good person. He even secretly went to watch the sisters and sisters from Xiaozhu Peak practicing sword formations before..."

　I have something urgent to do, so I can only update once. Sorry!
