Song of Adolescence

Hundreds of years ago, Buddhism was introduced to China from the West. Buddhist masters were preaching everywhere, universalizing people with kind thoughts in their hearts. In just a few decades, there were countless believers. However, Taoism claims that the east is wood, which belongs to Yang, and is born of Tao; the west is gold, and Yin is born of Buddha. Yang respects Yin and inferior, so Taoism is better than Buddhism. The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism began.

The struggle has been several hundred years.

In the past few hundred years, most people in power have believed in Taoism, because Taoism emphasizes longevity, and Buddhism teaches asceticism, which is often not liked by monarchs. Therefore, there are often brutal acts of destroying Buddhist temples. Buddhism and Taoism are under the control of Tianqi Hongyou Temple, and the principal is Hongyou Temple Qing. Now this position has been vacant for many years and is temporarily appointed by the Supervisor of Xiangxiang. But today's Honghe Temple can govern Buddhism, but it dares not speak arrogantly. Because of the existence of the Qin Tianjian in Apocalypse City.

The Qintian Supervisor was only in charge of the divination of important affairs of the dynasty. It used to be a small department with only seven or eight people. But since Qi Tianchen took over as the superintendent of the Qintian Supervisor, the emperor's trust in the superintendent of the Qintian Supervisor has increased day by day. There are now nearly a hundred people, and there are five who have been designated as celestial masters. Qi Tianchen is even regarded as a national teacher. It is said that with the addition of Qi Tianchen, each of the six masters in the Qintian Prison has entered the Xiaoyao Heavenly Realm. They are rare masters in the world, and they are now an important role in the imperial city to deter the world.

However, Qi Tianchen, who sounded like half a fairy, was kind to others and always smiled slightly.

"Tao is intangible and intangible, but it gives birth to all things in the world. Dao, disperse is qi, gathers is god. The so-called gods and gods are also different. The "Tai Ping Jing" divides gods into six classes." Qi Tianchen smiled. Flicking the dust, he slowly said, "One is a god, two is a real person, three is a fairy, four is a Taoist, five is a saint, and six is ​​a wise man. The gods dominate the heavens, the real people dominate the land, the immortals dominate the wind and rain, and the Taoists are bishops. For good or bad, the saint is in charge of the people, and the sage assists the saint Li Wanminlu, and helps the deficiencies of Liuhe."

The man sitting opposite Qi Tianchen first frowned and listened quietly, but then he was slightly confused: "The saint governs the people, and the sage assists the saint. Don't these two mean the current saints and the current masters? They too? A god?"

"Yes. This is a way of saying that my Taoist book "True Spirit Position Karma" divides the gods into seven levels: Yuqing, Shangqing, Taiji, Taiqing, Jiugong, Dongtian, and Taiyin." Qi Tianchen He raised his teacup and took a sip, "We have many Taoist classics about the classification and sayings of immortals, and there are different sayings. These are only two types. If you are interested in Lan Yuehou, you might as well stay for lunch today, and I will tell you Speak. Well, I'm afraid I can't finish talking about dinner."

Lan Yuehou was stunned, and said with a wry smile: "The national teacher is not teasing me. The national teacher is clever, and I must know what kind of fairy I asked."

Qi Tianchen shook his head: "But I heard the details."

Lan Yuehou finally stopped hiding, and said: "I heard someone say that there is a fairy mountain outside of San Snake Island, called Penglai Island. There are immortals on the island, who can rise by the wind, travel in the wind, and the world. Co-exist and grow old with the sun and the moon. I wonder if the national teacher knows this fairy?"

Qi Tianchen thought for a while and smiled: "Dongjun Baili told you?"

"It's not that the city lord Baili told me, but it is true that the person was also known from the city lord Baili." Lan Yuehou said, "The national teacher has also heard of it?"

"Naturally, Baili Dongjun once told me about his experience there, but I once persuaded him not to return to that fairy island." Qi Tianchen finally put away his smile and looked serious.

"Why?" Lan Yuehou heard.

Qi Tianchen stood up, pulled out a book from the desk, and said, "This is my Taoist book "The Picture of the Supreme Immortal". The book says "There are three methods of law, and immortals are divided into five classes." They are heavenly immortals, deities, earth immortals, human immortals, and ghost immortals."

Lan Yuehou was confused when she heard: "Why did the national teacher tell me about the classification of Taoist immortals? I, a layman, really listened to the clouds and mists, and only felt unpredictable, but Know nothing."

"Don't worry, among these five immortals, you can definitely find the kind you said." Qi Tianchen continued, "In the flying clouds, deity act lightly, thinking that the heavenly immortal, Yiyun flying immortal. This is the heavenly immortal, located in Taoist thirty. Da Luotian, the uppermost layer in six days, will naturally not go to any fairy island."

"The second category is immortals. They don’t live or die, and they don’t live or surpass. They are real people. This type of immortal has no form, but it has supernatural powers, and it is not the type of immortal you mentioned. The third type, It is the earth immortal. The "Supreme Immortal Picture" records that earth immortals have the talents of gods, and there are no gods. They are immortal, and they are the immortal immortals of the land."

"That immortal is an earth immortal?" Lan Yuehou was startled.

Qi Tianchen shook his head gently: "Hou Master is not anxious, there are immortals under the earth immortals, immortals can obtain longevity, but they have not realized the great way, can obtain a method, but only in Xiaocheng. Although it can prolong life and even rejuvenate, But he will eventually die. Therefore, under the earth immortals, they are no longer the immortals that the world thinks. There are many such immortals in the world. The head teacher of the immortal on Qingcheng Mountain a few years ago is really one, and there is another one in front of you. Bit."

Lan Yuehou, who has always been unchallenged, was shocked at this time: "Guoji, you have become an immortal?"

Qi Tianchen smiled and shook his head: "If it is really said in the "Supreme Immortal Picture", I am indeed ranked among the immortals. But according to what the world said, the real immortal who goes by the clouds, I It's far from it. Even I have never seen it or heard it, my master has never seen it, nor has my master's master seen it. However, the ghosts and gods must not speak arrogantly."

"The national teacher is saying that there are no gods in the world?" Lan Yuehou looked surprised, such a thing was said from a cultivator, and even the person who said this was still a national teacher, the supreme Taoist.

"My Taoist school does have a lot of cultivation methods. As long as you concentrate on cultivating the Tao, you can get great longevity. When my Taishizuxian passed away, I was 170 years old, and my hair was completely white, but I still looked like a young man. , Tianchen hasn’t seen it, and if there is one in the world, it’s not impossible. For example, the so-called immortal on Penglai Island may be an earth immortal that really exists in the world.” Qi Tianchen paused, “but there is another possibility. ."

"What is it possible?" Lan Yuehou asked.

"He is the sixth immortal in the "Supreme Immortal Picture", Guixian." Qi Tianchen put down the book and slowly said, "Ghost and immortal, unidentified idol, Guiguan has no surname, Sanshan has no name, and does not enter reincarnation. The cultivator has all the desires, and finally falls into the evil way. Although he gains magical powers, he loses the great way. Although he is said to be immortal, he is actually a ghost. Such people have magical powers, but their minds are lost at any time, and they end up in a situation where they can't survive and die. , Not to mention gods, not even humans."

Lan Yuehou was already sweating, and the earth fairy that Qi Tianchen said before was illusory and ethereal, which was enviable and fearful, and this "ghost fairy" was even more frightening. He murmured: "How can this be good?"

"Master Hou, don't panic, ghosts and ghosts, just sound scary. After all, it's not a ghost, nor is it a fairy, it's a human. It's just a way of cultivating a road. If a guide helps him find the way back, he is also a good person." Qi Tianchen comforted. .

"Master, Master." A little Taoist suddenly ran in.

"What's the matter?" Qi Tianchen asked lightly.

"The emperor, the emperor has come down!" Xiao Daotong said breathlessly.

Lan Yuehou and Qi Tianchen looked at each other, smiled bitterly, "My emperor brother is really impatient."
