Quanmin: I recited the Three Thousand Daozang and became a Celestial Master

Ye Xiang stood up and straightened his sleeves. The clothes on his body were not stained with dust, so even after meditating for more than half a month, he was still very clean.

He pushed open the door and stepped across the threshold.

I saw a teenage Taoist priest sweeping fallen leaves in the courtyard.

When the little Taoist priest heard the movement of Ye Xiang opening the door, he subconsciously turned his head, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said quickly: "Master Ye, you are out of seclusion!"

Ye Xiang smiled and shook his head, "You can also call me Senior Brother."

"Ah? Okay, Senior Brother Ye." The little Taoist nodded repeatedly and looked at Ye Xiang with admiration.

With such a high level of strength, yet so friendly, no wonder he was chosen by the Grandmaster.

"What happened these days?" Ye Xiang asked casually while looking at the maple trees in the courtyard.

It’s almost the beginning of winter again.

The leaves on the maple trees are all yellow and red, like the setting sun dyeing them with color.

"No." The little Taoist shook his head.

"But Tianshan Mountain is very lively these days. I have never seen so many people, including many foreigners." The little Taoist priest said excitedly.

"They say it's to meet you, Senior Brother Ye, and to visit the Luotian Dajiao."

Ye Xiang still knows about the Luotian Dajiao. Every important matter in Taoism will be held at the Luotian Dajiao.

"Foreigner?" Ye Xiang was a little surprised.

"Yeah, there are many, people from all countries."

"But some time ago, some ninjas and onmyoji wanted to visit, but we rejected them outright." The little Taoist priest said proudly.

Hearing this, Ye Xiang smiled dumbly, but didn't feel anything was wrong.

If you are not welcome, you are not welcome. Taoist people just do whatever they want.

Never feel wronged.

"Senior Brother Ye, do you want to go out for a walk? I can take you to see the venue for the Luotian Dajiao." The little Taoist priest said.

Ye Xiang thought about it and nodded, "Okay, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Hey, it's not troublesome. Senior Brother Ye can just turn on a small stove for me. Among several senior brothers, I am the slowest in cultivation." The little Taoist priest said with some embarrassment.

He finally got the job of sweeping fallen leaves in the yard, but this was actually the reason.

Ye Xiang raised his hand and touched his head, but he couldn't help but think of the two disciples Gu Nian and Gu Hong.

"Okay, what you practice is..."

Suddenly Ye Xiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Fu Dao?"

"Hmm, I've been learning talismans for many years, but my progress has been too slow, and now I can only draw some basic talismans." The little Taoist priest was a little surprised. Ye Xiang could tell at a glance what he was studying.

Ye Xiang said: "To study the talismans, you not only need to work hard on the talismans, but also to practice the inner alchemy deeply and perfectly control the power."

When the little Taoist priest heard this, he lowered his head slightly.

"The master told me the same thing, but I have been practicing Neidan for many years, but I have never entered the Tao and can't understand the sense of Qi."

This is the root of the problem. I have never had a sense of spiritual enlightenment. No matter how long I study on talismans, I can only draw some basic talismans.

Ye Xiang thought for a moment and did not directly help the little Taoist priest to directly understand the inner alchemy sense. This is the most useless teaching.

Only those who understand and enter the Tao by themselves can understand more deeply and go further in the future.

"Well, I guess I know, let's go out first."

"Okay, Senior Brother Ye, are you hungry? Let's go to the cafeteria first?"

"That's okay." Ye Xiang smiled. The little Taoist adjusted his mood very quickly.

Moreover, I really haven’t eaten anything since going off grain. Thinking back to just eating, the amount of nutritional medicines I took in a month was an astronomical amount.

One should know that a bottle of high-end nutritional medicine is worth tens of thousands of yuan. He could eat three or four pills at a time without even thinking about how much they cost.

The base canteen was almost eaten out by me.

Ye Xiang followed the little Taoist priest to the inner courtyard cafeteria. The Taoist priests he met on the road recognized him and bowed very respectfully.

Ye Xiang also bent down and raised his hand to return the greeting.

It was also the first time that he felt the feeling of truly being in a Taoist temple. On Blue Star, all Taoist temples had long since ceased to exist. The Taoist rhyme had been cut off by changes in the sky, and the Taoist veins no longer existed. How could he see such a scene.

After arriving at the canteen, the little Taoist took the initiative to help Ye Xiang scoop out a bowl of rice, and then brought a plate of fried meat with green pepper and a plate of water spinach.

It is the time when the little Taoist priest is growing, and Taoist priests can eat meat.

There are only four kinds of meat that cannot be eaten, namely beef, mullet, swan goose and dog meat.

Don’t eat cows because they are good. Cows and sheep eat grass, which is pure goodness.

Not eating mullet is filial piety.

Because after the mullet enters the spawning period, their eyes will be dim and they can't see anything. They can only starve to death and ascend to heaven.

But those mullet cubs will swim to the mother's mouth on their own initiative to satisfy the mother's hunger, and would rather die on their own.

Do not eat swan geese because of their chastity.

Hongyan has lofty ambitions and unswerving determination. After becoming a couple, they are even more dedicated. Even if one party dies, the other party will remain loyal to the end and live alone for life.

Don’t eat dogs because they are loyal.

Follow the Lord all your life, serve the Lord, be loyal and will not betray, so Taoism prohibits dog meat.

Ye thought maybe it had been a long time since he had eaten, but now that he was eating these meals, he just felt they were delicious.

But eating one bowl is enough. If you eat too much, it is equivalent to the impurity in the body and destroys the perfect state of ineditation. It is okay to eat once in a while.

After the little Taoist priest had eaten two bowls, he put down the dishes and took the initiative to clean up and wash the dishes. Ye Xiang also picked them up and followed him to wash them together.

While washing chopsticks, Ye Xiang thought of an account written by Dao Zang.

He couldn't help but look up at the little Taoist priest and asked: "Do you know why chopsticks are always seven inches six long and have a square head?"

"Ah? This... I don't know." After thinking about it seriously, the little Taoist shook his head.

He really hasn't thought about this problem. Chopsticks are just for picking up vegetables and eating. Is there any other meaning?

Ye Xiang explained: "Chopsticks look simple, but they actually contain the elements of king and yin and yang. The seven inches and six represent the seven emotions and six desires, which refers to human feelings. One end is round and the other is square. This refers to the roundness of the sky and the place. When we use chopsticks, It is held with three fingers, which represents the treasures of heaven, earth and people, and the round end is used to hold vegetables, which represents that food is the most important thing for the people."

Hearing these words, the little Taoist priest couldn't help but open his eyes wide. He never expected that the small and simple chopsticks that can be seen everywhere would have so much knowledge and truth.

He nodded seriously, "Yes, I remember Senior Brother Ye."

Ye Xiang smiled. He knew that the little Taoist priest still didn't understand the true meaning of this, but he was not in a hurry.

There is no need to be in a hurry to enter, understand, and cultivate the Tao.

Everyone’s thoughts and views on Tao are different.

Cultivation of oneself, cultivation of mind, and the moment you find the Tao from all things, you have entered the Tao.

"By the way, senior brother, I saw the master standing in the bowl with chopsticks. What does that mean?" the little Taoist asked.

"That's a relatively superficial exorcism technique. Don't learn it randomly, you know? You need to recite the incantation in conjunction with your mental state." Ye Xiang warned.

"Oh, that's it. No wonder the master didn't let me get close."
