Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion

Chapter 14 14. Looking at the scenery on Yangguan Road, the single-plank bridge is crowded with people

The contemporary heavenly master has let everyone go.

The first sap hit in the new year left Tang Xiaotang stunned.

“The grand ceremony will be held on January 15th, and there is still half a month left.” Wang Guiyuan comforted her.

"Yes..." Tang Xiaotang came back to his senses and became more energetic: "Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Lei Jun: "Senior Sister, if the Heavenly Master has not left seclusion by then, will you still participate in this transmission ceremony?"

Tang Xiaotang’s eyes widened.

 Lei Jun: “I mean, if.”

 “There is no if!”

　　The tall girl turned her back, and after a long while she snorted: "... If you don't participate, just keep waiting, I won't believe it!"

Obviously Tang Xiaotang was not the only one who was stunned by the Heavenly Master's sap blow from across the retreat gate.

“Li Ying from the first branch, Shangguan Hong from the second branch, Chen Yi from the eighth branch…”

Wang Guiyuan said at the side: "I heard that the recommender invited by the three of them has officially submitted to the court, asking the Celestial Master to deliver salvation to them, and they will pass it on personally to the Celestial Master."

The so-called transmission means that a Taoist disciple formally enters the Taoism, accepts the teachings from a teacher, takes an oath, and is taught the method of saving the world by the teacher.

 Procedurally, there are three masters who must pay homage to the evangelist, namely, the evangelist, the recommender, and the supervisor.

 Generally speaking, a disciple is the master who introduces disciples to Taoism.

However, if you want to become the direct descendant of the Celestial Master and accept the Celestial Master as your saver and master, you have to go through another process.

Of course, if you want to become a direct descendant of the Heavenly Master, you can’t just apply and be approved.

The qualifications for this application are not so easy to obtain, and the candidates have far more weight than the normal candidates.

 Lei Jun probably knows the three names mentioned by Wang Guiyuan.

For example, Li Ying from the first branch. No need to guess too much. She is a descendant of the Li family, and the purest one. She is the most beloved daughter of Elder Ziyang, one of the core leaders of the Tianshi Mansion.

 Elder Ziyang is the third younger brother of the contemporary Celestial Master and his biological brother. Both brothers are the sons of the previous Celestial Master.

 In other words, Li Ying is the niece of the contemporary Heavenly Master.

The personal transmission of the Heavenly Master is extraordinary after all, it cannot just rely on background and blood relationship.

Li Ying has strong connections and her own abilities are equally strong.

I have read the entire Taoist Academy several times. In the past few years, except for the special existence of Tang Xiaotang, no Taoist dared to say that he was better than Li Ying.

In fact, she has been staying in Taotongyuan for four or five years. She did not participate in the last transmission ceremony three years ago because she was waiting for her uncle Tianshi to come out of seclusion.

As for Chen Yi from the Eighth Branch, the most influential figure in the Taoist Academy who emerged last year, it is fair to say that his talent for cultivation matches his ability to cause trouble, and his cultivation has been improving rapidly.

 Just a small problem.

 Over the past year, he and the Li family's children had been very unhappy.

 The two sides have had more than one friendly and warm physical exchange.

"Master and the others are not that stingy. Even if they are really stingy, they will not happen to a Taoist boy."

Xu Yuanzhen said: "But Xiaotang and the others may be disappointed this time."

As he said, time passed day by day, but the Heavenly Master never came out.

 The Eighth Branch of Daotongyuan at the foot of the mountain.

In the small courtyard where Chen Yi lives alone, he is wearing a standard gray robe, his body is straight and he looks up.

 The continuous mountain peaks, under the clear white sun, are shining together.

Faint golden light interweaves, covering the entire mountain range.

 In the distance, thunder kept coming, but instead of feeling the roar and vibration, it made people feel calm.

 Among the mountains, halfway up the main peak, you can see the magnificent Taoist palace consisting of a large number of buildings.

 There is naturally the headquarters of Tianshi Mansion.

But further up, on the top of the main peak, it is hidden in a cloud of auspicious clouds and cannot be seen clearly. From time to time, there are precious lights flashing, like a fairyland.

"Shangqing Leifu Cave..." Chen Yi murmured to himself: "Go there as soon as possible so that everything can be improved to the next level!"

 His eyes became extremely firm.

Of course, he is not the only one looking at the cave in Shangqing Lei Mansion.

 Actually, there are more than a few candidates for direct transmission from the Celestial Master.

Lei Jun was also looking at the cave sky of Lei Mansion in Shangqing Dynasty.

This time I chose the fate of winning the lottery and temporarily gave up the competition for the Heavenly Master's personal transmission. This does not mean that Lei Jun will have no other goals after participating in the transmission.

 After all, there is the example of Tang Xiaotang in front of me. Lei Jun’s motivation to practice hard now is only stronger than before he awakened the hidden dragon spirit body.

 My own experience and that of others all show that the higher you stand, the more scenery you can see.

 The tenth day of January.

On this day, Lei Jun and other Taoist boys who participated in the mission went up the mountain to the main Tianshi Mansion halfway up the mountain.

There are still some days before the official transmission ceremony, but the little Taoist boys have to make preparations first, burn incense, bathe, and chant Taoist scriptures.

As the day of the ceremony approaches, the Taoist boys prepare their respective incense letters (conveying fees) and speeches, and send them to the master.

It is very convenient for Lei Jun. He chose to join Elder Yuan's sect, so he doesn't have to worry about the recommenders and supervisors himself.

 Like all the Taoists in the Supervisor, they are currently the chief instructors of the Taoist Academy.

The recommender is another elder of the same generation who is contacted by Elder Yuan.

The incense letter and the speech were naturally sent to Elder Yuan.

 But Tang Xiaotang felt uncomfortable.

 There is no need to consider the supervisor, as the recommender is personally recommended by Elder Yuan.

  But where is the deliverer or master, that is, the real master?

Who will take her submission?

"Don't be impatient, let's go see it together again." Yuan Mobai said warmly.

He took Tang Xiaotang and Wang Guiyuan, who was accompanying him, and walked toward the backyard of Tianshi Mansion.

Lei Jun and Xu Yuanzhen stayed in Yuan Mobai's courtyard. Xu Yuanzhen put away his pen and ink and painted casually.

“Given the talent of the little senior sister, on the day when the Celestial Master comes out of seclusion, even if it is not a three-year transmission ceremony, it is possible to make an exception and set up a case to recruit disciples on the spot, right?” Lei Jun asked from the side.

　　Xu Yuanzhen: "She wants a lot, and her state of mind is inevitably unstable, but it does not affect her practice and progress, and it is considered a scene in the house."

Lei Jun became more curious after hearing this.

Since Xu Yuanzhen said this, he means that even if Tang Xiaotang's mind is peaceful and stable, his progress in spiritual practice will not be much different from what it is now.

 This is indeed a sight to behold.

　　It’s really hard to say whether to criticize her or praise her.

“Sister, what did you draw was... clouds?”

Lei Jun looked at Xu Yuanzhen's writing. The paper was not so much a painting as it was a patchwork of scattered ink marks.

 When they are connected together, there is a suffocating feeling of black clouds pressing over the city.

“When you get excited, just draw a few strokes.” Xu Yuanzhen put down the pen, looked at the large dark clouds on the white paper, nodded with satisfaction, and rarely showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.

You must be in the mood because the Celestial Master has not come out of seclusion and a group of people's hopes have failed... Lei Jun slandered.

Xu Yuanzhen suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Lei Jun.

Lei Jun was puzzled by her look.

She shook her head and with a flick of her hand, the large black cloud of ink on the paper disappeared and turned into white again.

Xu Yuanzhen left the desk and sat down at the coffee table, resting his elbows on it and leaning his head against it, closing his eyes and falling asleep.

Lei Jun looked at the blank drawing paper and raised his eyebrows.

At this time, Wang Guiyuan suddenly came back: "Senior sister, master and several other uncles and uncles, please come over."

 Xu Yuanzhen opened his eyes: "What's the matter?"

 Wang Guiyuan: “It’s about Junior Sister Tang’s next practice.”

Hearing this, you know that the Heavenly Master has not left seclusion after all.

 Xu Yuanzhen stood up and walked out without saying a word.

Wang Guiyuan nodded to Lei Jun and followed him out.

Lei Jun shrugged his shoulders and began to sit cross-legged and meditate.

His mentality is completely stable, and he is taking advantage of this free time to continue his own practice and silently admit his luck.

There are thousands of troops competing over there, and it has nothing to do with him now.

What's more, it's hard to say whether there will be thousands of troops rushing to Yangguan Avenue or crowding the single-plank bridge over there.

Lei Jun practiced quietly until an unknown amount of time passed before a man broke in from outside.

 He opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him with some surprise.

Tall and with perfect facial features, he is Tang Xiaotang.

But this tall girl's hair and eyebrows turned pale gold at this moment, and there was also a faint golden glow in the night.

Even the pupils of both eyes are actually golden.
