Chapter 14 14 Enjoying the Scenery on Yangguan Road, People Crowded on the Single-Plank Bridge

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

The contemporary heavenly master has let everyone go.

This was the first sap blow in the new year, and Tang Xiaotang was stunned.

"January 15th is the grand ceremony, 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."

"No ifs!"

The tall girl turned her back and snorted after a long while: "...If you don't participate, if you continue to wait, I won't believe it!"

Tang Xiaotang was obviously not the only one who was stunned by the Celestial 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 pass on their blessings to them, and they will pass it on personally under the Celestial Master's lap."

The so-called transmission means that a Taoist disciple formally enters Taoism, accepts the teachings from his master, takes an oath, and has his master teach him how to save the world.

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

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

However, if you want to become a direct descendant of the Celestial Master and take the Celestial Master as your disciple and master, you have to go through a different process.

Of course, if you want to become a direct descendant of the Heavenly Master, you can't just apply and get passed.

The qualifications for this application are not so easy to obtain, and the candidates carry far more weight than those who normally participate in the transfer.

Lei Jun probably knew 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 junior 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 Celestial Master.

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

Li Ying's relationship is strong, and her own abilities are equally strong.

After going through the entire Taoist Academy several times, in the past few years, except for the special being Tang Xiaotang, no Taoist dared to say that he was better than Li Ying.

In fact, she had been in the Taoist Academy for four or five years. She did not attend the last transmission ceremony three years ago because she was waiting for her uncle, the Celestial Master, to come out of seclusion.

As for Chen Yi of 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 is improving rapidly.

There's 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 of seclusion.

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.

Continuous mountain peaks, shining together under the clear white sun.

A 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.

That is naturally the headquarters of the 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 Lei Mansion Cave..." Chen Yi murmured to himself: "Go there as soon as possible so that everything can be improved to the next level!"

His gaze became extremely firm.

Of course, he was not the only one looking at the cave sky of Shangqing Lei Mansion.

In fact, there are more than a few candidates for direct transmission from the Heavenly Master.

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

This time, he chose the fate of winning the lottery and temporarily gave up the competition to be personally transmitted by the Heavenly Master. 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 him.

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 transmission 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, burning incense, bathing, and chanting Taoist scriptures.

As the day of the ceremony approached, the Taoist boys prepared their respective incense letters (the cost of delivering the blessing) and speeches, and sent them to the master.

It was very convenient for Lei Jun. He chose to join Elder Yuan's sect, and he didn't have to worry about the recommender or supervisor.

Like all Taoists in the supervisory department, 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 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, towards the backyard of Tianshi Mansion.

Lei Jun and Xu Yuanzhen stayed in Yuan Mobai's courtyard. Xu Yuanzhen spread out her brush and ink and painted casually.

"With the talent of the little sister, even if it is not the three-yearly ordination ceremony, the Heavenly Master may make an exception and accept disciples on the spot, right?" Lei Jun asked.

Xu Yuanzhen: "She has many requests, and her state of mind is inevitably unstable, but it does not affect her progress in cultivation. It can be regarded as a scene in the mansion."

Lei Jun was more curious after hearing this.

Since Xu Yuanzhen said so, it means that even if Tang Xiaotang's state of mind is peaceful and stable, her progress in cultivation will not be much different from now.

This is indeed a scene.

It is really hard to say whether to criticize her or praise her.

"Senior sister painted... clouds?"

Lei Jun looked at Xu Yuanzhen's pen. It was better to say that the paper was not a painting, but a piece of scattered ink.

When it was connected, there was a suffocating feeling of dark clouds pressing down on the city.

"I'm in the mood, just draw a few strokes." Xu Yuanzhen threw down the pen, looked at the large dark clouds on the white paper, nodded with satisfaction, and a rare smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

You can't be in the mood because the Heavenly Master didn't come out of retreat, and a group of people's hopes were dashed... Lei Jun complained in his heart.

Xu Yuanzhen suddenly seemed to remember something, and turned to look at Lei Jun.

Lei Jun was puzzled by her look.

She shook her head and wiped it casually, and the large ink cloud on the paper disappeared, turning into a snow-white again.

Xu Yuanzhen left the desk and sat down at the coffee table nearby, resting her elbows on it, leaning her head against it and closing her eyes to pretend to sleep.

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

At this time, Wang Guiyuan suddenly came back: "Big 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, I knew that the Heavenly Master didn't come out of retreat 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 in meditation.

His mentality was completely stable. He continued to practice and breathe in and out his luck in silence.

No matter how many troops competed over there, it had nothing to do with him now.

Besides, it was hard to say whether they were rushing to Yangguan Avenue or squeezing on a single-plank bridge.

Lei Jun practiced quietly until someone came in from outside after an unknown amount of time.

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

Tall and with perfect facial features, it was Tang Xiaotang.

But this tall girl, at this moment, her hair, including her eyebrows, turned light gold, and flashed a faint golden glow under the night sky.

Even her pupils were golden.
