A simple table, made only of treated wood boards and painted with a layer of insect-proof and moth-proof paint, is quietly placed in the yard. An old man sits in front of the table, facing south, wearing a light blue Taoist robe, with white hair and beard; a Taoist in black sits in front of the table, facing east and slightly north, holding a sword, solemn; a Taoist in gray sits in front of the table, cold, dragging a whisk in his arm, facing west and slightly north.
Solemn silence.
The old green ox used to stay in the yard, but now it refused to stay in the yard no matter what and simply transformed itself and ran away.
It was quiet, almost dead silent.
Only the little Taoist boy who looked about three or five years old came over with a tray, then stood on tiptoe. The ground below cracked and a young tree sprout appeared. It grew rapidly and lifted the little Taoist boy up. He placed three cups of tea on the table and said in a very respectful and childish voice, "Please have some tea."
The old man smiled gently and said, "Thank you, my friend."
Although he is the founder of Taoism, he treats all seekers of Taoism equally and is not rigidly attached to positions or titles.
The Taoist Yuqing swept away his whisk and said lightly: "I already know what happened during this period of time, as told by the two Taoist friends..." A cup of tea had passed since he suddenly appeared. In an awkward and strange atmosphere, everyone went inside. Then, while Qi Wuhuo was making tea, the old man narrated what had happened during this period in the shortest possible words.
Taoist Qingyu thanked the little medicine spirit for the tea, took a sip, and said calmly:
"You still remember my taste."
Then he swept the whisk and said calmly: "It seems that it was the Taoist Taishang who taught him your secret method of transforming one qi into three pure ones, and then because of Fuxi and other coincidences, Taiyi's residual soul revived in his body. After a fight, Taiyi's residual soul was now in your pocket, and the power after being stripped away became one of his souls?"
"Qi Wuhuo, come here."
He beckoned the young Taoist to come over, and then stretched out his hand and pressed it on Qi Wuhuo's shoulder. A rich, almost blind-spotless Qi that encompassed many changes flowed into Qi Wuhuo's body, circling for several weeks before he raised his hand and said lightly, "...That's right, Taiyi's traces have dissipated."
Shangqing Daojun said: "I used my sword formation, the supreme magical power, and the power of the earth veins to suppress it."
“How come there are still some left?”
Taoist Qingyu did not comment, but only asked Qi Wuhuo about his feelings. After a moment of contemplation, he said calmly, "I believe in the supernatural powers of Taoist Taishang. However, the supernatural powers are the transformations of the body. It has thirty-six holes, a total of seventy-two phases, and many mysterious changes. It should be connected with Taiyi."
"Qi Wuhuo has just obtained this spell. If he is not careful, he will be attacked by Taiyi. Even if he is not attacked, it would be a pity if he cannot fully utilize such a great opportunity."
"Follow me to the Daluo Heaven above the thirty-six heavens, and cultivate in seclusion for a hundred years. When you have mastered [One], the world will have its own fortune. By then, the world will have undergone great changes, and I will release you into the world to restore order."
The Supreme immediately stroked his beard and laughed, "Daoyou, Daoyou, this is wrong."
"You who have no doubts are my disciples. You should cultivate my Dao and inherit my unique knowledge. Since you are my disciple, you should be taught by me personally."
Taoist Qingyu said calmly, "His foundation is the means of my Daluo Tianyujing lineage. From the Qi foundation to knowledge, formations, and talismans, he learned them all from me. We are not master and disciple, but we are also master and disciple in reality. May I ask fellow Taoist, besides introducing him to the sect and passing on his unique skills, what else have you given him?"
"What's more, there is a saying that goes, 'If a father is not kind, his son can be abandoned; if a ruler is not a ruler, his subjects can be attacked.'"
"If the king and father are like this, what about the teacher?"
"Besides, all the talented people in the world have their time. If we let them drift with the tide, many of them will be buried. Isn't that a pity?"
Shangqing Da Dao Jun’s forehead twitched.
This is just pointing at the nose and scolding. You, an old man, have accepted an apprentice but don't teach him. Why don't I do it?
The old man paused while stroking his beard and shook his head helplessly.
Taoist Qingyu looked calm, handsome and indifferent, and said in a slightly gentler tone, "Besides, I am not trying to take away your master-disciple relationship. After all, you accepted him as your disciple first, and we are friends, so how could you not know my feelings?"
"Give me Qi Wuhuo."
"I will teach him myself."
"In terms of status, it is still Tai Shang Xuan Wei, how about that?"
Shangqing Daojun raised his eyes slightly and said with his sword: "Humph, Yuqing's foundation, what can it do? This kid can compete with Taiyi. The final winning move is my Jiejian sword formation. He also walked out of his own way based on my Jiejian and created his own Jiejian Jie. You two."
"One only taught the basics, the other only passed on the status, but now to me, it is a legacy!"
"Can you compare with me?"
"Why don't you follow me to travel around the world and see all things? My sword energy is unparalleled, and I know that the power of the Tribulation Sword is infinite. Isn't that wonderful?"
The Supreme smiled and said, "It's my disciple."
Shangqing Daojun was particularly dissatisfied and said, "If it weren't for the good deeds of Di Ting, how could this disciple have fallen into your hands?"
Only the three of them could hear their conversation. Qi Wuhuo was unaware. Only Hou Tu seemed to have sensed something. She smiled helplessly and called the young Taoist over. She watched the situation develop and found an excuse to bring Qi Wuhuo into the house. She left the outside completely to the three Taoists. After Shangqing Daojun's words were spoken, Qingyu Taoist raised his eyes slightly and said, "Listen carefully?"
"Huh, you don't know either?!"
"Let me tell you in detail!"
Shangqing Daojun told Diting everything, so Qingyu Daoist raised his eyes slightly and said, "So that's how it is."
Shangqing Daojun leaned back slightly, spread his hands, and said: "After all, don't you all want to select talents and teach them? In my opinion, cause and effect, there is cause and effect. Since today's matter originated from Diting, I might as well ask clearly-"
"I chose Taoist Taishang that day, perhaps because he was the only one traveling outside."
"Today, all three of us are here."
"See what choice he makes!"
Taoist Qingyu said calmly: "Yes."
Tai Shang looked at the two of them helplessly. Taoist Qingyu took a look at the cup in his hand. It was just a simple object in a small town on earth and was not valuable. The water was just mountain spring water for brewing tea. There was still a drop of tea in the Taoist's cup. He poured it casually, and the tea flowed down and fell to the ground.
Di Ting, who was in the dark underworld, felt his eyebrows throbbing wildly for some reason.
If the previous sexual perceptions had only changed slightly, it would be like being pushed slightly in a sleep.
Now it feels like there are millions of heavenly soldiers and generals in front of him, wearing armor, holding weapons, and dancing to the Haotian Pozhen Qu together. That feeling, boom, boom, boom, my head is buzzing. Di Ting's spiritual sensitivity, which was originally one of the six realms, was raised infinitely at this moment!
Even the communication between the evil spirits in the City of the Dead outside the temple was extremely harsh.
It was like it was whistling in my ears.
Di Ting was feeling irritated. He had endured it many times, but finally couldn't bear it anymore. He raised his head, his eyes were angry, he stretched out his hand, and said, "Noisy, noisy, noisy!"
"I'm so annoyed, tell your grandpa to be quiet!!!"
The drop of tea fell to the ground.
Cause and effect conclusion.
Immediately reversed.
The furious Di Ting disappeared in an instant, and a drop of tea fell on the spot.
In front of the courtyard on the hill in Jinzhou on earth, Di Ting appeared.
He was so angry that his hair stood on end. He sat cross-legged on the ground with his legs apart. There was still the smell of powder and lipstick on his cheeks. He pointed his spear at the three Taoists in front of him and cursed: "Be quiet, Grandpa Diting!!!"
Old Green Ox had just brought up some fruits and snacks from the mountain when he saw this scene.
Be dazed, bewildered, admire the courage, and regard it as wonderful.
Turn around and go!
All in one go!
At this moment, Di Ting's spirit went offline.
His voice froze in an instant, and he stared blankly at the scene in front of him - the wind was light and the clouds were calm, the old man in front was smiling gently, the black-clothed Taoist on the side seemed surprised, as if he found it funny, raised his eyes and eyebrows, raised his hand and raised the sword, the blade was sharp; and the middle-aged Taoist holding the teacup said lightly:
"What are you listening to?"
Plop!!!
Di Ting bowed quickly and decisively, transformed into his original form of a beast, and said in a loud voice: "The treasures of the Tao, the treasures of the Scriptures, the treasures of the Master, the Jade Purity, the Upper Purity, and the Great Purity; the One Qi flows, and the Three Purities respond."
"The gate is silent, without saying a word, yet it manages the four seasons well."
"The true color is empty, the boundless is transformed into the three realms."
"In the Daluo Heaven, in the Golden Palace, in the void and nature, there are the Three Pure Ones, the Three Realms, and the Three Dao Ancestors! Listen carefully, I am paying my respects to the three Dao Ancestors, the Jade Pure Yuanshi Great Heavenly Venerable, the Supreme Daode Great Heavenly Venerable, and the Upper Pure Lingbao Great Heavenly Venerable!"
He spoke in one clear and crisp breath, and, taking advantage of the situation, he recited the Three Pure Ones' General Edict, surrendering very easily.
Tai Qing said gently: "My friend, there is no need to be so polite. Please stand up."
Shangqing naturally didn't care much. Taoist Qingyu said calmly: "Don't be like this. Although there was a verbal error, it was me who called you here, not your fault. Please don't be polite and stand up." Only now did Di Ting breathe a sigh of relief, slowly stood up, wiped his face randomly, and said: "I am in the netherworld, under the order of the Tibetan king, suppressing the city of wrongful death, but I don't know why I am so lucky to see the three Taoist ancestors?"
"Please give me some advice, Daozu."
Taoist Qingyu played with the cup and said calmly, "I heard that you gave it to Taishang as a disciple several years ago."
"Only you."
"Why is it him?"
Plop!!!
This time the bow was even more decisive and clear, and Di Ting was decisive and shut up immediately.
Shangqing Daojun smiled and said, "Hey, listen carefully. The three of us are all here now."
"Look, who looks more like that kid's teacher?"
Listen carefully: "..."
He listened carefully and could not utter a word, his face turned pale.
Taoist Qingyu seemed to have known about this situation for a long time. He just sighed and said calmly: "Daoyou, don't be embarrassed to listen. He didn't dare to say it today. He said it because he was worried that it would offend the other two. Your opinion was not valid from the beginning."
The Great Lord of Shangqing did not answer.
The Supreme One seemed to want to stop today's arguments. He just stroked his beard and smiled, saying, "Both of you are mysterious, your Taoism is unfathomable, and your magical powers are vast. If you accept Wuhuo as your disciple, you will also be lucky enough to practice the righteous way, walk in this world, and make achievements. However--"
"After all, I was the first one to accept a disciple."
Tai Shang threw out his trump card.
Taoist Qingyu said calmly: "The one who is wise is the teacher."
Four words!
Listen carefully and your scalp starts to tingle.
I wanted to faint on the spot.
The Supreme raised his eyes, the smile on his face faded a little, and said: "Daoyou, what you mean is..."
Taoist Qingyu seemed a little tired. He said calmly: "This kind of argument has happened so many times since the first calamity era. So many years have passed, and it has happened so many times. In the end, we can never convince the other party. In this case, why not..." The Taoist put the whisk in his hand against the table and moved his wrist slightly.
boom!!!
Boundless strength, mysterious magical powers!
The table was flipped over!
A strong wind blew up, and the table rushed to the highest point of the sky. Taoist Qingyu swept the dust with his whisk, and a cloud of celebration appeared above his head. A bright lamp shone in all directions behind him. With a calm tone, he looked down at the two Taoist friends and said lightly: "The one who is wise will be the teacher."
“Hit first!”
"Let's talk later."
