Chapter 784 (1/2)
In the second year of Han'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Tianshi Zhang Daoling came to Jielu of Qingcheng Mountain to preach and founded the real local religion: Taoism.
At the same time, it also makes Qingcheng Mountain the first of the four famous mountains in China.
At this time, there were Taoist temples all over Qingcheng Mountain. Even on every mountain peak, Taoist temples and devout believers could be found. Some of them were mainly preaching scriptures and preaching, while others were mainly teaching martial arts.
Rangers in the Tang Dynasty have become a force of folk groups that can not be ignored. Their movements are hidden, erratic and mysterious. From time to time, they will step forward to do something to rob the rich and help the poor, fight against injustice, and then let the people in the whole city applaud in unison.
They don't care whether the matter is right or wrong, whether it violates the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty. In their eyes, as long as there is a contradiction between the rich merchants and ordinary people, it must be the fault of the rich merchants.
Therefore, rangers are very prosperous in the Tang Dynasty. They are willing to do things that the captors of the Tang Dynasty can't do. They are willing to be unrestrained, but they like to use their own way of understanding to complain about the injustice of the people in the world.
As time went on, chivalry became more and more popular in the Tang Dynasty. Taoist temples in Qingcheng Mountain, after combining with the fusion of foreign martial arts, began to open schools to teach apprentices and preach scriptures.
Qingcheng Mountain is evergreen all the year round, and its peaks are in the shape of a city wall. Standing in the Tang Dynasty, looking down at the Qing palace, it seems that Qingcheng Mountain is moving towards the main peak in three directions.
Therefore, as a Taoist temple funded by the ”government” of the Tang Dynasty, Chang Taoist temple became the first Taoist temple on Qingcheng Mountain.
The whole Qingcheng Mountain can be summed up with a word ”you”. In addition, the temperature at any time of the year is very pleasant. Therefore, more and more people come to Qingcheng Mountain either for self-cultivation or for martial arts training.
There are not many scenic spots like those in later generations. Although there are many Taoist temples, people in this period obviously prefer to fit the quiet words of Qingcheng Mountain. Therefore, the places where Taoist temples are built tend to be on the quiet hillside or the places with dense forest, so that the natural combination can be achieved in the builders.
Quan shancai and Su Honghui are already out of breath, but in contrast, Li Hong and the two eunuchs behind him, including the one hundred more close behind him, all seem to have just begun to climb the mountain, without any difficulty at all.
On the mountain road, which is full of pedestrians, most of the tourists have been supported to other mountain roads by another 100 Pro guards who opened the road ahead.
At the foot of the mountain, Li Hong didn't let Quan shancai and Su Honghui prepare the prince's honor guard, so on the whole, the whole foot of the mountain is more lively than the place where Li Hong is now.
It is needless to say that Yuan Ke Shi of Chang Daoguan is the son of the famous yuan Tianshi, except Li Hong.
After Yuan Ke Shi's death, Li Yan was rarely known to outsiders. In addition, he liked to keep a low profile. He always stayed in the Tianshi cave built for Zhang Daoling during the Daye period of the former Sui Dynasty. Therefore, few people knew that he was the son of Li Chunfeng.
Li Hong was still leisurely all the way, looking at the sun that had climbed to the top of his head. After meeting Li Yan and Yuan Ke Shi, he waved his hand and followed the usual Shangqing palace in the Taoist temple.
Since he was a Taoist, Li Hong needed to worship anyway. After all, he had the name of Tang Shengzu given by the Tang royal family, so he went to the Qing palace instead of worshiping him. After returning, Li Hong was inevitably accused by Li Zhi as treacherous, unfaithful and unfilial.
”Sun Simiao, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng have all come here to practice, although today...” Li Hong walked out of the Shangqing palace and looked at the beautiful green scenery around him. He continued: ”it seems that if Sun Simiao is crossing mountains and rivers, is Zhongnan mountain, where they are, far away from here?”
In line of sight, except for the continuous green mountains, you can see nothing else, but when you look to the East, you can see two water belts shining in the distance.
”Your Highness, when you are here for the first time, I'm afraid you don't know that in addition to the quiet scenery and the wide spread of Taoist temples in Qingcheng Mountain, there is another characteristic of Taoist school?” Yuan Ke Shi followed Li Hong with a smile and said faintly.
He was the one who met with di Renjie in Dujiangyan on that day, and because of him, di Renjie has quietly entered the Tianshi cave behind the Chang Taoist temple since yesterday.
”I don't know. What are the other features?” Li Hong watched as he wiped his sweat all the time, but his ears were always high. Quan shancai and Su Honghui, who were listening to their conversation, were standing tall all the time.
”Longevity feast.” Yuan Ke Shi said three words lightly, but seeing Li Hong didn't respond, he continued: ”it is said that Qiao Xiu's Shu Ji contains eight immortals of Shu, and fan Changsheng is one of the founders of Changsheng banquet. At that time, he built fan's manor in Qingcheng Mountain. He practiced the skill of long-term life. He collected the essence of mountain, the spirit of water, and the flower treasure of precious herbs. He cooked skillfully. He could enjoy the natural color and flavor of food, and enjoy the longevity of Pengzu. Therefore, he was called ”longevity banquet.”
”Shouqi Pengzu?” Li Hong shook his head in a funny way. He was not interested in Pengzu, an antique dating back to the period of Yao and Shun, which was even more antique than himself.
