Taoism is the door to Taoists all over the world.
Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Although Taoism has declined in recent years and is the weakest of the three schools, it has been passed down for thousands of years and naturally has a deep foundation. No one else can compete with it in terms of wealth or combat power.
Even if a general's family is as wealthy as a country, if they really provoke the Taoists, they may not be able to gain any advantage.
Just as Master Tianjizi said, if there really were tens of millions of Taoist disciples backing Fang Yan, the Jiang family would not be able to do anything to him.
At least your life is safe.
However, Fang Yan still couldn't agree.
In other words, he still couldn't agree to it easily.
Fang Yan looked at Tianjizi with vigilance, and asked with a smile: "Master, please tell me directly, what exactly do you want me to do?"
Don’t think that monks are not human beings, and don’t think that there are no smart people among monks.
If Master Tianjizi came all the way to Yanziwu just to treat Grandpa's leg disease, Fang Yan would never believe it.
He repeatedly tempted me to join the Dao Sect, and even said that he was willing to have tens of millions of Dao Sect disciples as his backers - so what did he want? Or, what did the Dao Sect want
Without clarifying this issue, Fang Yan would not have the courage to close his eyes and follow his master to the Taoist sect. Although he was willing to believe in his master.
"Do you remember what I told you about the Tai Chi Diagram?" Tianjizi asked in a deep voice.
"I remember." Fang Yan thought for a moment and said, "What happened?"
"Not long ago, the Black Dragon, one of the Three Dragons of China, went to Wuliang Temple to steal the Taiji Diagram." Tianjizi said with anger in his eyes, "Wuliang Temple is the place of dignity for the Taoists. How can we tolerate their presumptuous behavior? They are taking advantage of the fact that there is no one in the Taoist sect to steal it?"
"What then?" Fang Yan asked anxiously. The most mysterious Black Dragon among the three Chinese dragons also appeared, and he showed up for the Tai Chi Diagram. The Black Dragon has been famous for a long time and has long been a master of the Heavenly Dao Realm. What does he need this Tai Chi Diagram for? What secrets are hidden in this Tai Chi Diagram
"The Black Dragon attacked and injured Qingxuan, a reader at Fanghua Pavilion. Taichong Sect Master discovered the enemy and fought a fierce battle with him. Seeing that it was difficult to win, the Black Dragon fled under the cover of night-----"
"The Tai Chi Diagram wasn't stolen, was it?"
"Of course. The Tai Chi Diagram is a Taoist treasure. How can we let anyone take it away casually?"
Fang Yan pondered for a while, looked at Tianjizi and said, "The two masters came here to look for the guardian of the Tai Chi Diagram. I wonder if the masters have found that person."
Tianjizi looked at Fang Yan and said, "Whether we are destined to meet or not, we will have to see the Tai Chi Diagram first. Fang Yan, are you willing to give it a try?"
"Why me?" Fang Yan asked.
"Because of you, we are destined to be together." Tianjizi said. "I have been looking for a destined person, but you and I are destined to be together, and you are also destined to be with the Tai Chi Diagram, right? When the monk and I first saw you, we had already included you in the list of candidates. But at that time, you were too violent and frivolous to take on such a heavy responsibility------"
"Master, I'm actually quite frivolous now." Fang Yan said quickly.
Tianjizi looked at Fang Yan with burning eyes and asked, "Until today, you are still unwilling to take on this responsibility?"
"Master, I'm too tired." Fang Yan looked at his master Tianjizi sincerely and said, "I am exhausted just by wanting to protect this family. How can I protect this country and this nation? I am afraid of hardship and tiredness. I just want to take a rest, let me take a breath--------"
There was a faint smile on Fang Yan's face, as if a gust of wind could blow it away without a trace.
"I am a lazy person. If possible, I would like to find a school to be a teacher who lives a carefree life. But I am forced to this point. Every step is full of dangers and murderous intentions."
"Master, I'm scared. I'm afraid that if I die, our Fang family will be finished. My grandfather is old and frail, my mother has been worried and ill, and I haven't even found a wife. If I die, our Fang family will be extinct."
"I am not a bad person, nor am I a coward. When the country needs me, I am willing to stand up and fight for it. Like countless heroes and sages in Yanziwu, I am willing to fight for the prosperity of the country and the destiny of the nation. However, I don't want to take the initiative. I don't want to carry those responsibilities on my shoulders all the time. I don't want to suppress myself to the point of suffocation. I don't want to think about my role as the guardian of the Tai Chi Diagram every time I wake up from my sleep. Is there anything I haven't done well or not done well enough?"
"Master, my biggest dream is to take good care of Grandpa's health, make my mother happy, marry a wife and have a few children - then our family will live happily together. Oh, by the way, Master, I'm getting married soon - Ye Wenrou, she's a very good girl."
Tianjizi pondered for a long time, looked at Fang Yan and asked: "If I give you the Tai Chi Diagram, would you like it?"
"Yes." Fang Yan answered without hesitation. Anyone who doesn't want it is an idiot, but you can't regard me as the guardian of the nation just because I took the Tai Chi Diagram. If someone intrudes in the east, find Fang Yan. If someone kills someone in the west, find Fang Yan. If a cow disappears in the south, find Fang Yan. If someone's wife in the north can't get pregnant, find Fang Yan--------
Fang Yan hopes to be an independent individual with his own thoughts, rather than a puppet kidnapped by national justice.
"Come with me." Tianjizi said.
"Master?" Fang Yan was shocked. "Did you really give me the Tai Chi Diagram?"
"As you just said, you are not a bad person, nor a coward. You already have the basic conditions to obtain the Tai Chi Diagram. Taoism emphasizes being natural and will never force others with one's will. Don't worry, even if you get the Tai Chi Diagram, you will still be Fang Yan. Just like Mo Qingdi was still Mo Qingdi after he got the Tai Chi Diagram."
"Master, I'll go pack my luggage and we'll set off immediately." Fang Yan said excitedly.
"Your grandfather invited me to have lunch-------" Tianjizi said helplessly. Is this kid trying to chase people away
"Oh, is that so?" Fang Yan was stunned for a moment, then said, "Then I'll go pack up first. We'll leave when you say so."

It had just rained on Monkey Mountain, so the entire forest was washed. The leaves were fresh and the rocks were bright. The Taoist temple built on the edge of the cliff gave people an even more mysterious feeling like a temple.
Fang Yan has been in Wuliang Temple for three days. Except for his master Tianjizi who brought him in, almost everyone else in the Taoist temple treats him as a invisible person.
This was a little different from what he had expected. A young genius like him was the hope for the revival of Taoism. His master went to Yanziwu to invite him. When he arrived at Wuliang Temple, Taichong, a Taoist school, led the legendary three machines and seven mysteries to greet him at the gate. Taichong stroked his beard, looked at himself, laughed, pointed at himself and said to everyone, "This boy has a unique physique and is extremely talented. The responsibility of protecting Taoism in the future will be handed over to you." Then he took his hand and walked into the main hall. Under the gaze of Taoist gods and countless Taoist elites, he held out the "Tai Chi Diagram" and handed it to him. He refused, but Taichong forced him to give it. He refused again, and Taichong was furious and said that this was what everyone expected and what the people of the world wanted--------
Fang Yan did not see the legendary Master Taichong, nor did he see the other two of the Three Machines and Seven Mysteries.
"Don't they realize their importance?" Fang Yan suspected that he had been deceived by his master. They deliberately brought him to Wuliang Temple just to put him under house arrest. But why did they imprison him
"Could they also be bribed by the Jiang family------" Fang Yan thought to himself. Then he immediately rejected this thought from his mind. "If the Jiang family can bribe even the Dao Sect, then there is no need for me to resist. I can just stick my head out and let them chop it off--------"
The only thing that satisfied Fang Yan was that the living conditions in Wuliang Temple were very good. There was a terrace in the room where he lived, and the terrace was suspended in the air, with a thousand-foot cliff just a step away.
The mountain wind blows, the mist lingers, and the distant mountains are like ink paintings, dotted with red and green, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
There is also the Wuliang Temple's specialty Longdanxiang, which is refreshing. This kind of tea is not available outside. Fang Yan couldn't bear to drink more, so he hid the tea sent by the Taoist priest in a small jar and prepared to take it back to his grandfather. Grandpa likes to drink this tea, and it is good for his health.
Dongdongdong------
There was a gentle knock on the door.
Fang Yan walked over and opened the door, and his master Tianjizi was standing at the door with a smile on his face.
"Master, you finally showed up--------" Fang Yan pulled the master's sleeve and said, "Where is the Tai Chi Diagram? Didn't Master say that he would give it to me?"
Tianjizi looked at Fang Yan with a smile and said, "After the rain in the empty mountains, the weather has turned to autumn. Beautiful mountains, beautiful scenery, and good air. What are you always doing staying in your room? Come on, I'll take you out for a walk."
"Master-------" Fang Yan had no intention of looking at the mountains and the scenery. Chaoyan Technology was under attack from the Jiang family, and the willow trees in Lanshan Valley were still resisting the endless tricks of the Jiang family. Although the Qin family went down the mountain to join the battle, their support was limited. The Jiang family attacked with all their strength, and the strength of the two was different. Most of the attacks had to be resolved by Fang Yan and his team.
Fang Yan just wanted to get the Tai Chi Diagram as soon as possible, unlock the secrets in it, discover the unique skills inside, and then return to Huacheng to kill everyone.
"When your mind is in a mess, everything you see is karma." Tianjizi said in a profound and mysterious way: "Put down your burdens and run towards nature."
"Master, if you don't give me the Tai Chi Diagram, I will run to Yanziwu---------"
(Ps: I gave myself two days off, I really deserved to be slapped in the face!) (To be continued)
