Chapter 40 [Zi Yang Zhenren, teach your disciples! ]
When Lin Xun heard this, he shuddered immediately and thought to himself, Lao Li, please don't harm me.
The future Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin would compete fiercely for the throne, and the fight would be extremely fierce if he accepted the other party's eldest son as his apprentice.
It can be imagined that he would not have much good impression in front of Li Shimin, and his plan to ask him to help set up the temple was doomed to fail.
This was contrary to the purpose of his trip, so Lin Xun quickly shook his head to refuse.
Li Yuan gave up when he saw that the other party was really unwilling. Otherwise, he really wanted to let his eldest son become his disciple as well.
Just as everyone in the Li Mansion was toasting each other, drinking and chatting.
Far away on the Purple Gold Mountain, billions of miles away, there is a rare paradise in the world.
I saw this mountain, tall and steep, with clouds and mist shrouded in the mountain, and a fairy-like aura.
On the top of the Purple Gold Mountain, there lives an old immortal named True Man Zi Yang, who is one of the rare immortals in the world.
The magical powers of this Zi Yang Zhenren are not weak. He also appeared in the original version of Journey to the West.
During the battle of Zhuzi Kingdom, True Man Zi Yang used the magic weapon Five-Colored Fairy Robe to preserve the innocence of the Queen of Jin Sheng Palace, preventing her from being defiled and violated by the monster Sai Tai Sui.
Finally, after learning that Guanyin Bodhisattva had subdued Sai Taisui (Golden-haired Hou), Jin Shenggong Niangniang was able to return home.
He then came forward to take back his five-colored fairy clothes and explained its origin to Sun Wukong.
At this time, Zi Yang Zhenren in the Taoist temple was sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed, concentrating on practicing.
He has an upright posture. Although he is not young anymore, his back is still as strong as a pine tree, revealing a temperament that is not burdened by worldly matters and is detached from the world.
"what?"
Suddenly, a trace of surprise appeared on Zi Yang Zhenren's face, and he said, "How strange! The heavens have revealed that my future disciple is actually missing one."
You have to know that for a person with great supernatural powers like him, accepting disciples is predestined by fate, and if one is missing, that would be unusual.
When Master Zi Yang saw this, he quickly used his magical powers to see who the person was and quickly accepted his disciple as his apprentice.
Unexpectedly, just as he used magic to deduce the secrets of heaven, he found that all the strands of cause and effect were absorbed by a magic mirror.
At first glance, the front of this precious mirror was gleaming with golden light and pieces of rosy clouds. It was obvious that it was not an ordinary object, but he did not know its origin.
The most important thing is that this thing can block the secrets of heaven and prevent people from figuring it out. It is definitely not an easy thing to deal with.
"That's all. He is just a nominal disciple of the mortal world. Since he has been taken away by someone, it proves that he has no fate with me. Why bother to delve into it?"
Thinking of this, Master Zi Yang suddenly became enlightened and no longer worried about his disciple being kidnapped.
………………
On the other hand, Lin Xun had no idea of the changes caused by accepting a disciple. At this time, he was already living in Li Mansion in Daxing City.
Since I have accepted Li Yuanba as my disciple, I naturally cannot leave so soon. I have to teach him well.
The Dayan Jue that was originally taught was just an ordinary method of controlling force and was no longer applicable.
Here, Lin Xun passed down the basic method of the Great Heavenly Immortal Art, which was exactly the part that Sun Wukong taught him.
As for the subsequent skills, they can only be taught after Li Yuanba obtains Lin's approval.
It has to be said that Li Yuanba is worthy of being the number one hero of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and his talent is not weak.
At that time, Lin Xun was in the stage of refining essence into qi, and it took him a long time to get started.
It took Li Yuanba only three days to develop his magical power, which shows how fast he was. However, his subsequent practice speed was greatly reduced, and it was difficult to compare with Lin Xun.
It was only because he had the Daoyan Treasure Mirror, and he observed the process of Patriarch Bodhi's Dharma development day and night. His cultivation speed was so fast that, although not as fast as that of Sun Wukong, it was also at the top level in the Three Realms.
Besides, Sun Wukong’s situation is special. Since the creation of the Journey to the West, there have been few people who can match his speed of cultivation.
However, with Lin Xun's guidance, Li Yuanba was able to proceed much more smoothly during his practice.
In addition to cultivation, Lin Xun, as a teacher, will also teach other things.
After all, a teacher not only teaches his disciples magical powers and spells, but also many common sense of life and principles of being a human being.
If Patriarch Bodhi had paid more attention to Sun Wukong, the disaster probably wouldn't have happened.
However, this may also be intentional on the part of the other party, who only teaches magic skills and does not teach other things.
Only in this way can he be induced step by step to commit a great disaster and cause chaos in the Heavenly Palace.
It is worth mentioning that Li Yuanba had a good relationship with Li Shimin since he was a child in the mansion, and the other party was the only one who did not despise his ugly appearance and would come to play with him.
Nowadays, although Li Yuanba has become Li Shimin's disciple, he often meets with Li Shimin.
Sometimes, Li Shimin came to play with his younger brother, and when Lin Xun was teaching his disciples, he would listen from the side.
It’s not something important at all, and it doesn’t cover the inheritance of martial arts techniques.
Lin Xun allowed the other party to sit in. After all, there was not much difference between herding one sheep and herding two sheep.
During the lectures, Teacher Lin Xun would also bring in some personal thoughts from the future, as well as some modern ideas.
Even the social structure, the country's development, military strategies, and his original ideas on governing the people were all talked about.
Maybe it doesn’t matter that Li Shimin doesn’t understand it very well now, but as long as he writes it down, it will definitely have a great impact on his future.
Occasionally, Li Shimin could clearly and directly explain the essence of things.
This made Lin Xun very pleased. He was indeed worthy of being called Li Er. Although he was young, he possessed extraordinary wisdom.
No wonder the future General Tiance could pacify the world in just a few years.
After listening to Lin Xun's lectures, Li Shimin admired him very much. He felt that some of his viewpoints were very novel and he had never heard of them before, but they also made a lot of sense.
Although he did not become a disciple at this time, he behaved like a disciple and showed respect to Lin Xun.
Li Yuan at home, when he learned that his second son also often went to attend classes, not only did he not dissuade him, he was also very happy.
He knew Lin Xun's abilities, which were quite impressive apart from his cultivation.
It was Li Shimin's chance to receive instruction from the other party.
Li Yuan even wanted to send his other two sons to him, but was rejected, and could only regret it.
In his opinion, maybe it's because he loves the person and loves everyone in him!
On weekdays, Shimin took good care of Yuanba, which was why he was able to attend classes.
In addition to teaching his disciples, Lin Xun also did not neglect his own cultivation. He knew in his heart that being strong was the most important thing.
As for why he lived in Li's Mansion, there was a reason.
Before Lin Xun became Sun Wukong's apprentice, he had thought about taking out some things from the New Century and making money for his own use.
(Regarding Zi Yang Zhenren, I originally wanted to write about his intersection with the protagonist, but after checking the information, I found that there is also a Zi Yang Zhenren in Journey to the West, and he overlaps with the Zi Yang Zhenren in the Sui and Tang legends, so I arranged them as the same one.)
