Chapter 76 The Grand Master of Xuandu
Sun Wukong once made a fuss in the Heavenly Palace and broke into the underworld, so he naturally had no fear of the underworld.
But Xiao Bailong did not have the experience of Sun Wukong. The biggest thing he had done in his life was to beat up Wude Xingjun's son, which directly led to the death of his uncle Jinghe Dragon King.
Now that he is asked to go to the underworld, Xiao Bailong is really a little disappointed.
"Senior Brother, why don't you forget it? You have already achieved the utmost righteousness and even the Buddha doesn't want to come forward. I really don't want to cause trouble for you." The little white dragon looked sincere.
In fact, he really regretted it after this turmoil.
"Forget it? This matter must not be done like this. This is not just your business." Sun Wukong waved his hand and refused directly.
He didn't think this was a big deal. At most, it would lose the Jade Emperor's face, but what is there to be afraid of?
In Sun Wukong's heart, the Buddha is most awe-inspiring, because Buddha represents his power that he cannot fight against.
As for the Jade Emperor, he was a pure soft ball in his heart. If he lost his face, he would lose it. It doesn't matter.
"In this way, Xiao Bailong, go check the person just now, I always feel that he is not an ordinary person."
Sun Wukong was talking about Zhao Hao. He did not notice anything abnormal about Zhao Hao, but he threw the Longquan sword on Zhao Hao in the dark. It seemed like a coincidence, but Sun Wukong did not think so.
The higher the cultivation level, the more you will be in line with the way of heaven when doing things, and rarely do meaningless things.
Xiao Bailong and Sun Wukong have a different level. They still don’t understand this truth, but seeing that Sun Wukong no longer let him go to the underworld together, he hurriedly agreed.
However, after Sun Wukong disappeared, Xiao Bailong wanted to find Zhao Hao again, but he couldn't find it.
In fact, even Zhao Hao himself was a little confused.
He threw the Longquan Sword into the Jing River and got rid of Yuan Tianshi's gaze.
According to what Zhao Hao thought, he planned to find a Taoist temple or Buddhist temple outside Chang'an City for three days, and then he would wait until his cultivation level recovered.
It’s not that Zhao Hao didn’t know that Chang’an City is the safest place, but Chang’an City is no better than elsewhere. The process also requires identity proofs such as Lu Yin. Where can Zhao Hao find such identity proofs now?
Only after his cultivation level is restored will these trivial matters not affect him.
Nowadays, Buddhism is powerful, and there are many temples outside Chang'an City.
Although the Jing River and Chang'an City are not close, they are not too far away. Zhao Hao thought he would encounter several temples along the way, but to his expectations, he did not meet any of them.
On the contrary, after walking for a long time, I saw a somewhat declining Taoist temple.
The Taoist temple has been disrepair for a long time and looks severely eroded by wind and rain. Obviously, there are no believers around.
However, there was a middle-aged Taoist in front of the Taoist temple gate cleaning the fallen leaves. It looked very ordinary, far from the Yuan Tianshi that Zhao Hao had seen before.
However, this is exactly the candidate Zhao Hao wanted, the Taoist temple that was not noticeable, and the Taoist priest who was used to living in seclusion.
Such people are not threatening, but can provide a lot of convenience.
"The Emperor Wuliang Tianzun, I have seen the Taoist priest. I am a scholar from other places who came to Chang'an to take the exam. However, I met a robber on the road and robbed everything. I don't know if the Emperor can be sheltered for the next two days. I will definitely give me some rewards." Zhao Hao stepped forward and saluted the Taoist.
Judging from Zhao Hao's current appearance, no one would doubt that he is a scholar.
The middle-aged Taoist is obviously not an inaccessible person. He is very reasonable. After hearing Zhao Hao's request, he readily introduced Zhao Hao into the Taoist temple.
To Zhao Hao's expectations, although the Taoist temple looks very bad from the outside, it is very quiet inside, and the rooms are cleaned very clean, giving a sense of dust.
This is an unexpected surprise.
"The Taoist priest is indeed full of Taoism." Zhao Hao's praise this time was sincere.
From this Taoist, Zhao Hao did not feel any cultivation, but he felt the wisdom and foundation of reading the Taoist sect through it.
This is a Taoist priest who is extremely devout to Taoism and has very deep theoretical knowledge as a basis. Zhao Hao claims to have read a lot of Taoist scriptures, but it is still inferior to this person.
Of course, at Zhao Hao's age, it has made Taoist people very happy to be able to study this kind of Taoist classics. The two became familiar with each other as quickly as possible, and Taoist people's attitude towards Zhao Hao became more and more friendly.
The Taoist temple is located remotely and there is no people around. From the conversation, Zhao Hao also learned that the Taoist only had one master, but the fairy trail has not appeared in the Taoist temple for a long time. Now he is the only one in the Taoist temple, so he can stay there with confidence.
Just as Zhao Hao was calming down, he heard another sound from the door of the Taoist temple.
"Strange, I am a place where I am apart on weekdays, but today I am one by one." The Taoist chuckled and stood up and walked out the door.
Zhao Hao was not with him. After all, he was not the master here, but Zhao Hao's eyes were always on the door.
Now he is the weakest time and needs to be vigilant at all times.
What shocked Zhao Hao was that he actually knew the person who appeared at the door of the Taoist temple.
In this time and space, he had only had close contact with one person, that is, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, Master Yuan Tian.
However, the scene that Zhao Hao saw now, Master Yuan Tian was extremely respectful to the Taoist, and he actually held the courtesy of his disciples.
Master Yuan did not stay for too long. After only a few conversations, Master Yuan left the Taoist temple, but the turmoil he brought to Zhao Hao's heart did not dissipate for a long time.
Now looking at the ordinary face of Taoist, he still feels that he is an ordinary person, but Zhao Hao can only feel that he is unfathomable.
"Senior, that's Master Yuan Tian?" Zhao Hao asked directly.
With his current state, if this Taoist really has any plans for him, he will not be able to resist, so it is better to be more natural.
Master Yuan Tian’s fame is not small in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Even if others see the scene just now, they will still be surprised.
The Taoist did not hide it, perhaps because he thought it was not necessary.
"I think Master Yuan seems to be very respectful to you?"
The Taoist chuckled when he heard this, "He is my registered disciple, so of course he must be respectful to me."
Zhao Hao's face remained unchanged, but his hands trembled.
The Tang Dynasty is the largest dynasty in the human world, and Master Yuan Tian is the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty, which is basically the representative of the cultivation world in the Tang Dynasty.
He is actually the disciple of this Taoist. Doesn’t this mean that the Tang Dynasty was protected by this Taoist?
It was not until this moment that Zhao Hao realized that he had not asked the Taoist name of this Taoist.
"Dare you ask about the name of the senior?"
"I have forgotten the name. I was worshipped by Master, and since then, people have only called me Xuandu."
Zhao Hao: "..."
