After leaving Qingyun Temple, we went straight to Mr.
Liu's house with Liu Yanming.
During the past few days while I was away, Zhang Xiaohua and Mo Mo were well taken care of.
They played all over Kyoto.
Compared with the previous few days, the two of them looked really bad.
A big circle, but Zhang Xiaohua's dull mood has recovered a lot.
Seeing that my heavenly soul had recovered, Mo Mo and Zhang Xiaohua seemed extremely happy.
After staying with a few people for three days, I went to Qingyun Temple alone and entrusted Mo Mo and Zhang Xiaohua to Liu Yanming's care.
I was very relieved.
When I came to Qingyun Temple again, I found that the old Taoist priest from last time had been waiting at the door early.
After seeing my figure, he came up to me with a smile: "Not bad, he came on time.
You know why many people want to learn Taoism." , I also bought a lot of books and materials, but I didn’t succeed in my studies?”
I don’t know why the old man asked this suddenly.
I shook my head curiously.
The old Taoist stroked his beard, shook his head, and pretended to be profound: "Actually, apart from the incomplete information, the biggest problem is that there is no such thing as dedication and title.
This is a very important ritual in the Taoist sect, because if you want to learn Just reading books and practicing Taoist spells blindly is useless and has no effect before learning Taoist spells. , you have to go through the steps of Guo Zhi first.
The so-called Guo Zhi, also known as Guo Jiao, is the elder of a certain Taoist sect who helps you connect with the information of the ancestors of the sect and the immortal masters of the upper world, and obtain authorization.
Only by mobilizing the information and energy of the sect can we use the spells and spells of the sect.
Otherwise, it will just be a waste of time.”
"However, different sects in Taoism have different rules regarding culpability.
Some small sects mainly have masters supervised by their disciples, while some large sects have special culpability elders.
That's why I asked you to come back to Qingyun Temple in three days.
Yes, because today happens to be the day of the annual assessment of Qingyun Temple.
The disciples who finally pass the assessment will be unified by the elder Guozhi in the afternoon and officially become disciples of Qingyun Temple."
"In addition, excessive attachment can also reveal the quality of a person's talent.
Because although Taoism has many sects, in the final analysis, they all believe in the lineage of the founder of Sanqing.
Therefore, in the process of excessive attachment, If you can obtain recognition and authorization from different levels of masters, it will definitely have a big impact on your subsequent practice.
For example, to give a simple example.
There are two people, one is recognized and authorized by the ancestor of the previous generation, and the other is recognized and authorized by Zhang Tianshi.
Do you think the two of them will achieve greater success in the future?
So in the process of excessive attachment, the more powerful the ancestor you get, the more powerful the ancestor will be.
In the future, the power you can exert by practicing Taoist spells will be stronger, and you will gradually understand this later."
"But don't worry.
Although I didn't detect you, I learned a spell when I was young.
I can detect your talent with the naked eye.
It's not easy.
You can get the recognition of the fourth generation of ancestors or above with just a few words.
Hehe, This time, those old guys have nothing to say.
Come with me, hehe."
As if he thought of something worth being happy about, the old man's stern face inadvertently showed a trace of a lewd smile.
Then he glanced at me quickly and found that I hadn't noticed.
He breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his face again, pretending.
He said in a deep voice: "Let's go, I will take you to the Executive Hall, and we will wait until this generation of disciples has gone through the last test, and then we will go through the Executive Hall together."
I nodded, followed the pace of the old man, and soon after walking towards the middle road, I came to a magnificent hall.
This hall was built with ancient wood, covered with red paint, and covered a huge area.

It was far away.
From a distance, it looks like a lying giant lion, filled with a majestic and heavy aura.
Directly above the main hall, there is a gold-plated plaque with three characters written on it, which reflects the dazzling light in the sun.
After taking me to the entrance of the main hall, the old Taoist said: "This is the main hall where Elder Guo Zhi is.
You go in first and wait.
The newly recruited disciples of this year are probably still going through the final assessment.
Those who pass the assessment will be They will be brought here, undergo training, and after completing the training, and knowing their talents, the elders and peak masters will choose their own disciples."
"Then I don't need to go through the assessment, I can just go through the attachment directly."
I asked.
"You were selected by me personally.
Of course you can skip the previous steps."
The old man patted me on the shoulder and walked towards the side door alone.
After being stunned for a while, I slowly opened the wooden door and walked towards the inside of the main hall.
The main hall covers a large area.
It is estimated that it will not be a problem to accommodate two to three hundred people.
Right above the main hall, there is a statue of the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty.
Below it, It was filled with tablets.
When I looked closer, I saw that they were all tablets enshrined by the ancestors of Qingyun Temple.
I counted about a hundred tablets, which was quite shocking.
"Where did the thieves come from, and dared to touch the ancestor's tablet?"
Just when I wanted to carefully examine the words engraved on the tablet, the door behind me was suddenly pushed open, followed by an angry voice.
Turning around, he saw two blue-shirted disciples leading more than thirty white-clothed disciples into the hall, with tense expressions on their faces.
I hurriedly explained: "Brothers, you have misunderstood.
I am also a disciple who is obsessed with waiting."
"The disciple who is waiting for the fault has never seen him in the four assessments just now."
"That's right.
Could it be that if you can pass the exam and enter Qingyun Temple without going through the examination, you must have gone through the back door?"
"The rules of Qingyun Temple are strict.
How can one be randomly recruited without going through the four assessments of clouds, sea of fire, illusion and meditation?
Although it is said that one's ultimate talent can only be seen by practicing, but the four assessments are all about one person's talent."
Character and perseverance.
If you want to practice Taoist magic, in addition to extraordinary talent, character and perseverance are also one of the decisive factors.
I heard that even the descendants of the great elder, Liancheng, personally participated in this assessment.
How could he have used the back door?"
Behind the disciples in blue robes, more than thirty disciples in white robes were looking in my direction and whispering like a cauldron was exploding.
One of the blue-robed disciples seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and then he cupped his hands towards me and said, "Could it be that you are the disciple of the Ninth Elder who has been admired for a long time?
I heard Senior Brother Gao mention it a few days ago, saying that the Ninth Elder actually found his disciple.
"Yes, I didn't believe it at first, but now that I see my junior brother, I am completely convinced."
"You're welcome."
I returned the salute, left the tablet position, and stood in the center of the hall.
On the side, more than 30 disciples in white started discussing again as if they had heard some breaking news:
"It turns out that he is the disciple of the Ninth Elder.
No wonder he doesn't need to go through the examination."
"Haha, yes, the reputation of the Ninth Elder is very loud.
Before I entered Qingyun Temple, I had heard of his glorious deeds.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I heard that he was not only wretched, but also useless.
He had practiced Taoist magic for more than fifty years, and he actually He is not as good as the new disciples.
He really doesn’t know how he became an elder, so no one has been willing to be his disciple for so many years.
However, he has never given up his desire to find a disciple.
Unexpectedly, after working hard for so many years, he finally met an elder.
What a fool" "Hehe, yes, I guess this person is also a waste.
Otherwise, how could anyone with a little talent be willing to join him?
Wouldn't it be self-destructive to his future?
It can be seen that if he takes part in the assessment, he will definitely get it in the first round.
If you are kicked down, you won’t even have a chance to do anything wrong.”
"So the Ninth Elder is not stupid.
He knows how to use the back door.
He knows that this kid has no hope of passing the test, so he directly lets this kid skip the test and take part in the examination.
But for the person who can be favored by the Ninth Elder, do you think he will be able to join the test in a while?
If you can't shake even one of the founder's tablets, it will really disgrace Qingyun Temple, which has lasted for thousands of years.
Haha, we will probably have a joke in a while."
"Yes, these tablets are made from the condensation of a yang energy left behind by the ancestors who participated in creation before they passed away.
Therefore, Elder Guozhi can use these tablets to connect with the ancestors of the past generations.
If the disciples are in Guo During the process of practicing, which ancestor's tablet shakes, it means which ancestor was touched.
The master values and then gets authorization.
Which ancestor is authorized will have a profound impact on the future practice of Taoist magic.
If it can be recognized by Zhang Daoling, Zhang Tianshi or Qiu Chuji, it will be great.
I heard that in the past hundreds of years, that is.
One person shook the memorial tablet of Qiu Chuji.”
"Hmph, don't have any illusions.
It would be great to be recognized by the fourth generation of ancestors.
I heard that the great elder personally went out this time.
We have to perform well.
If we can be favored by the great elder Bai and become his disciple, then absolutely It’s the highest honor” s: I don’t know how many people have heard of the concept of over-attachment.
It’s very interesting:
