Li Le just looked at the Taoist priests who were surrounding him and were very curious about him. He knew without much thought why these Taoist priests were here. It was because of the previous vision, but the vision was really a coincidence and had nothing to do with him.
Seeing the awe in these people's eyes, Li Lezhi also understood that explaining to them would not work, but not explaining would not work either. He could only bite the bullet and say, "Don't think too much, this is all coincidence."
After saying this, it sounded more like he was quibbling. Li Le only added: "What I said is true. It is really a coincidence. I am not the incarnation of Master Sanqing."
“…”
The Taoist priests looked at Li Lezhi without any change in their gazes. They had eyes to see that such a huge strange phenomenon, with purple clouds covering the sky for ten miles, was not something they could dismiss as a coincidence. It was clearly...
They all knew it in their hearts, but they couldn't bring it to the surface, nor could they let the Master incarnate admit it himself. They felt itchy in their hearts and were very uncomfortable.
The heat in Xuan Yangzi's eyes gradually faded away. He coughed and said, "We know. This is all a coincidence. It's an accident. We will never tell anyone about it."
After Xuan Yangzi finished speaking, everyone looked in his direction, still with a hint of confusion. This was obviously not a coincidence. The other party was obviously the incarnation of Master Sanqing. Obviously... Then they thought, what benefit would it bring to them if they revealed the identity of Master Sanqing?
The incarnation of Master Sanqing clearly wanted to hide his identity so that he could see the human world, so why should they reveal his identity and let him leave?
The master's action was also to tell them that everything was a coincidence, and not to reveal his identity, but to ask him for advice on the pretext of ignorance.
Yes, that’s what the master thinks.
What followed was shame. They had lived for most of their lives and had studied divination, but still had not found someone as good as Tian Yanzi. The master must have been unable to bear this, so he came down to earth to save people. It was a disgrace to them.
There were many people who had this idea. They were filled with shame and looked down at their toes, standing in front of Li Lezhi like children who had made mistakes.
Li Lezhi didn't know what they were thinking yet. When he heard Senior Xuan Yangzi say it was a coincidence, the other Taoists seemed a little surprised but they also seemed to believe what Senior Xuan Yangzi said. They no longer looked at him with such fiery eyes. They must have realized that they had made a mistake and lowered their heads.
Li Le just felt relieved.
He asked in a low voice: "Senior, what else do you want to do next?"
When Xuan Yangzi was asked, he remembered that they used to preach while sitting on a cushion, and now that the Three Pure Ones were here, who was more qualified than the Three Pure Ones? He said, "Three... Li..."
Faced with Li Le's curious and puzzled eyes, Xuan Yangzi could only straighten his tongue and pretend that he didn't know the identity of the person in front of him. He closed his eyes and hypnotized himself that the person in front of him was not Master Sanqing, but Li Xiaoyou. After saying this for a few words, he could smoothly shout out the three words "Li Xiaoyou".
He said, "Little friend Li, it's time for you to start the discussion."
Li Lezhi almost showed shock, pointing at himself. He tried hard not to act unsteadily in front of the big guys. He put his hands behind his back, frowned slightly and said, "Me?"
"But what's wrong?" Xuan Yangzi asked cautiously.
When the others heard that it was Master Sanqing who was going to give a sermon, even if they were staring at their toes, they couldn't help but prick up their ears to listen. Such a great opportunity must not be missed.
"Yes..." Li Le just wanted to say, is it really appropriate for a small Taoist priest like him to show off his skills in front of a big boss? But then he thought that this might be something that everyone would have to do once, so he asked, "Am I the only one?"
Li Le asked seriously, and Xuan Yangzi also became nervous and began to think about what Master Sanqing meant by this. Was he hinting at them, or did the master want to
To know their abilities, he gets along with the master a little better than others. Last time, he overestimated his own abilities and wanted to teach the master, but the master chased him and forced him to study further.
The master is clear about his abilities, but he may not be clear about others.
So, the master wants to take this opportunity to know other people's abilities?
Xuan Yangzi probed: "That's not the case. Although I won't preach this year, the Taoist priests who have come from afar are still willing to do so. (wx)?"
Li Le just followed Xuan Yangzi's line of sight and looked at the Taoist priests in front of him, sliding his eyes across their faces one by one.
Every Taoist priest that Li Le saw was extremely nervous. They straightened their backs unconsciously and looked in the other direction. They kept thinking in their hearts, what does Senior Xuan Yangzi mean? What does the master mean? Does he want them to go on the stage and preach?
That would be embarrassing in front of the master, which is not appropriate.
Compared to them, Taoist Wang, who had stood up against Li Lezhi before, was even more frightened. Thinking of his previous arrogant behavior, he regretted it deeply. If he had known that the master had such intentions, he would never have dared to be dissatisfied with the master.
Now, Taoist Wang hopes that the master can quickly forget about him and not remember him.
Li Le only stayed on Master Wang's face for a moment. He thought, if Master Wang wanted to hold a forum to discuss the Dao, no matter what he said, he had not forgotten Master Wang's previous dissatisfaction with him. If he were to go with Master Wang, he could not let Master Wang lose to him.
Li Le just stared at him, and Xuan Yangzi mistakenly thought that he wanted Master Wang to come on stage, so he said to Master Wang: "Master Wang, why don't you come first? (w)?"
"What? (w)?"
Taoist Wang raised his head, with shock still in his eyes. His gaze slid back and forth between Xuan Yangzi and Li Lezhi's faces. Finally, facing Li Lezhi's gaze, with a dull look without a trace of emotion, he nodded and said, "Okay. ☆Come????????Read the latest chapter??Full chapter?(w)?"
Since the master wanted to watch, he had no choice but to go on stage, because his previous actions had attracted the master's attention.
When Taoist Wang was chosen, the one who envied Taoist Mu the most was him, and he felt sad in his heart. No one had expected that when Taoist Wang jumped out to stop the master earlier, he was remembered by the master. He just didn't know whether it was good or bad. Apart from that, Taoist Mu still had some expectations. He was also the one who spoke for the master, so he should be one of the people here.
When he met the master's gaze, he knew he was safe and took a step forward excitedly.
At this time, Xuan Yangzi had not spoken yet, and Li Lezhi looked at him indifferently. Taoist Mu had sweat on his forehead, but he immediately said tactfully: "I am willing to be the second person, please agree."
Li Lezhi looked at Xuan Yangzi, and Xuan Yangzi also looked at Li Lezhi. After a moment, Li Lezhi looked away, only to feel that Taoist Mu was extremely nearsighted and couldn't even tell the direction. He should have bowed to Senior Xuan Yangzi, but he bowed in his direction. Fortunately, Senior Xuan Yangzi didn't care.
When Xuan Yangzi saw that Li Le had no objection, he thought that Li Le simply approved and put Taoist Mu behind Taoist Wang.
He picked a few more of the remaining ones. Xuan Yangzi originally wanted to pick Taiqing, Shangqing, and Zhang Yuanming from Qingyun Temple. Unexpectedly, these three looked at the sky, the earth, and the whisk, but were unwilling to look in his direction.
Seeing this, Xuan Yangzi did not force it. There were already several masters, temple masters, and the Three Pure Ones on the scene. He would definitely gain a lot from this discussion, which would also be of great benefit to the disciples below.
After selecting the candidates, they began to discuss the Dharma. Except for the person who was giving the sermon who sat on the upper cushion, the rest of the people sat on the cushions below. Li Le originally wanted to find a quiet corner, but in the end, he still sat in the first row. The first seat made him a little restless, but he didn't dare to move.
With so many eyes looking in his direction, Li Le just straightened his back and
He sat upright, not daring to relax at all. Therefore, his figure seen from behind was like a bamboo, attracting much attention. One by one, they imitated his sitting posture and sat upright.
Even Xuan Yangzi, who used to like dozing off, tried his best to keep his eyes open this time, not daring to let any decadent air escape his eyes.
They were serious, and Li Le, who was observing them with his peripheral vision, did not dare to even think of slacking off. He stared intently at Master Wang on the stage, putting great pressure on him.
Taoist Wang couldn't ignore that gaze. The thought that every word he said would pass through the master's ears and be heard by the master made him so nervous that his hands on his knees trembled slightly and he couldn't even speak clearly.
This was a scene that had never happened before. Although no one present laughed at him, he knew that his behavior was not in line with the identity of the headmaster of a temple. He took a deep breath, suppressed his panic and finished what he wanted to say. When he stepped off the stage, Master Wang's legs were weak and he almost fell down the stairs.
He steadied himself, smiled sheepishly, and then, like a thief, bent over and returned to his seat.
Even though such a thing happened, the people present still did not laugh, and the others who were about to go on stage were also extremely nervous. Li Le was only thinking about what Taoist Wang said. Although Taoist Wang was not likable, the other party was a Taoist with real skills. It would not be easy to defeat him in a discussion of Taoism.
Li Lezhi listened to Taoist Mu and others and gained something. After everyone had finished speaking, it was his turn. Li Lezhi slowly walked up to the platform and sat on the cushion. All he saw were Taoists wearing different Taoist robes.
He should be nervous for such a big scene.
But when he really sat in this position, Li Lezhi was relaxed. He said: "Looking closely at the world, everything is easy..."
The Yi mentioned here refers to the Book of Changes, and when this sentence was uttered, everyone felt a little confused and puzzled. Even Xuan Yangzi found it very difficult to perceive the meaning of it, but no one gave up and was unwilling to listen.
Precisely because they didn’t understand, everyone kept Li Lezhi’s words in mind, ready to study them in the future.
After Li Le finished speaking, he looked at the people in the audience, thought of some sentences in the Tao Te Ching, and then continued: "Heaven is the Tao, the Tao is long-lasting, and you will not be in danger even if you die."
He also said: "All things in the world are born from existence, and existence is born from non-existence."
At this time, the clouds in the sky were surging and gathering towards one place rapidly. Such a scene also attracted everyone's attention.
They pointed to the clouds in the sky and said, "Look, the sky has changed color, and the clouds are moving so fast."
Those who heard these words also looked up at the sky, and were surprised to see the rolling clouds. Some even chased the clouds, wanting to see where they were going.
When they arrived at the gate of Xuanyang Palace, they found that all the clouds were gathered above the palace. Naturally, this strange phenomenon was spread by word of mouth among everyone.
However, when it came to the Xuanyang Palace, everyone was very vague. They only said that the clouds in the sky were a blessing from God and that it was Your Majesty's great grace that moved God. They never mentioned the Xuanyang Palace at all. They didn't know what had happened yet and didn't want to bring disaster to the Xuanyang Palace.
This scene also made Emperor Zhao pay attention to Xuanyang Palace.
