Qingfeng and others are not orphans, but children from nearby families.
It was just that there were too many brothers in the family to support him, so he was sent to the temple to be a Taoist boy.
He is not considered a disciple of Liu Laodao.
However, the few people who came to observe were all willing to do so. Not to mention that Liu Laodao was a man of real ability. If he could learn some skills, he would be able to put them to great use in the future.
Even if the old Taoist doesn't teach them, they have saved food rations for the family. From time to time, they can eat some meat with the old Taoist. Isn't it much better than at home?
Seeing that Ling Qing was willing to teach them, he was naturally filled with joy.
Just looking at the way Lingqing looked when he was doing his homework, anyone would say that he was a virtuous immortal.
They didn't mention learning any real skills, just learned that appearance, and they would have no worries about food and drink in the future.
At that moment, Lingqing gave Qingfeng some copper coins and asked him to go to the street to buy some breakfast.
Their usual breakfast consists of heating up leftover pancakes and just some pickled vegetables.
After breakfast, Lingqing taught them the "Eight Divine Mantras" word for word and asked them to recite it.
People say that interest is the greatest motivation for learning, but this is not the case.
Desire is.
Just like Ling Qing, he longs for immortality and immortality.
Therefore, no matter how boring practice seems to others, he is happy to do it.
A few children are also ordinary. They are eager to learn skills so that they can have food and clothing in the future.
At this time, Lingqing was willing to teach, and they were naturally eager to learn.
It was just like when Taoist Wenxi taught Lingqing and others to learn the Eight Divine Mantras.
Ling Qing only taught the spell to a few people and asked them to practice it on a daily basis.
After they become successful, if there is another opportunity, others will naturally come to guide them into the Tao.
A few of them didn't have the same understanding as Lingqing and others. The whole morning's teaching only allowed them to more or less memorize several divine spells.
No one has really achieved results.
However, Ling Qing didn't take it seriously, he just did it casually.
He asked Qingfeng and others to take the paper he copied and read it.
He went out of the gate and greeted the neighbors around him.
After a while, he came to a medicine hall, looked around, and saw a young man with red lips, white teeth, and handsome features, who was busy.
It was Xu Xian he was looking for.
"What kind of medicine does the Taoist Master want to grab?" After seeing him, Xu Xian put down his work and came to ask.
Lingqing told him a few medicinal materials commonly used in alchemy and medicine and asked him to grab them.
He opened his Dongzhen Dharma Eyes and looked at the busy Xu Xian carefully.
However, he looked at it from top to bottom and bottom to top, but he didn't find anything strange.
However, the biggest difference is that there is no difference.
His pair of true Dharma eyes has been comprehending since the beginning of his Taoism, and he has developed magical powers from one magic to the next.
You can see the hard work that went into it.
However, its effect is also worthwhile, as it can provide insight into the true nature of all things.
The only thing that can block his Dharma Eye is that there are beings with a higher level of cultivation than him who deliberately cover it up, or the other party is beyond the scope of his knowledge.
With Lingqing's wide range of interests now, there are few things that exceed his knowledge.
If Xu Xian is different, Lingqing can still see some clues.
However, being able to be entangled with Bai Suzhen for thousands of years has attracted the attention of many people.
How could this Xu Xian really be just an ordinary person?
Therefore, there was only one possibility that he could not see through. The strangeness on Xu Xian's body was deliberately covered up.
"Taoist Master, you have already grabbed the medicine." Xu Xian wrapped the medicinal materials one by one and placed them in front of Ling Qing.
"Xu Xian, give the Taoist priest a gift." After Lingqing paid the money, the medicine shop owner ordered happily.
Lingqing deliberately asked for more, and there were about ten bags of various kinds.
The Taoist master who is such a big customer must be someone who knows how to make alchemy. If he can serve him well, he will rarely buy medicine from him in the future.
2k
"Okay." Xu Xian responded, picked up the medicine bag and said, "I wonder where he will stay?"
"Sanqing Temple not far ahead."
"The Sanqing Temple by Daochang Liu? Then we live not far away. My family lives next to the Qianwang Temple."
"Really? It's really not far. If you have time, you might as well come to the temple and pay homage."
"If you have time in the future, I will definitely come and bother you. I hope the Taoist Master won't find it annoying then."
"Wherever, the temple is open to the public, so there is no reason to be bothered."
"That's right, Taoist Priest, are you buying so many medicinal materials to make elixirs?"
"Exactly, make some pills that nourish essence, nourish blood, and invigorate Qi.
how? Are you interested in alchemy? "
"I am interested in medical skills, and I often rely on my medical skills to help the world, cure diseases and save people.
I often hear people say in medicine shops that Taoist elixirs are magical, but I have never seen them.
It is said that Daochang Liu is the best at talismans with water, which can drive away ghosts and cure illnesses.
But I don’t understand the reason, and I always feel that it is not as practical as herbal medicine. "
Lingqing never thought that Xu Xian was quite a talkative person.
"If you, a junior official, are interested in elixirs, why not come and help Pindao?
Pindao is trying to refine some elixirs these days. It would be much easier if he had someone as knowledgeable as Xiao Guanren to help him. "
"Really?"
"Is there any lie? Pindao also has a lot of research on medicine. If the junior official has any doubts, Pindao may be able to give some advice."
"So, thank you very much, Taoist priest." Xu Xian was overjoyed when he heard this and bowed his hands.
"It doesn't have to be like this." Lingqing helped him up, and by now he had reached Sanqing Temple.
The two of them entered the door, and Lingqing asked him to put the medicinal materials in the house and give him some copper coins as reward.
But he refused, "Oh, it's a blessing for me to be able to see the Taoist Master refining elixirs. How can I dare to accept the Taoist Master's money?"
Lingqing didn't force him, took the copper coins and sent him out.
Watching him return to the medicine shop, he turned back to the temple.
No matter what kind of calculation there is, the simplest way is to find out the basis of other people's calculations.
Anyway, Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian had already broken up the human-ghost relationship, and he didn't mind breaking up the human-ghost relationship between Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen.
Lingqing returned to the temple and took out two medicine cabinets and an alchemy furnace from the tiger skin bag.
They called Qingfeng to free up the south wing of the east cross courtyard and turn it into an alchemy room.
After three poles in the sun, Liu Laodao got up and was a little unhappy when he saw Ling Qing quietly creating an alchemy room.
But after hearing Lingqing say that he was good at refining elixirs and would share some with him after refining the elixirs, he wholeheartedly agreed.
Frankly speaking, Lingqing can be used casually.
After all, he didn't have much property in the yard, so he just left it empty.
Liu Laodao asked Qingfeng to heat up two cooking cakes for him. While watching Lingqing busy with several Taoist boys, he ate pickled vegetables in the courtyard.
In the afternoon, Liu Laodao was talking to Lingqing. Someone outside the door said that the chief's new clothes and shoes were ready and delivered today.
Liu Laodao was overjoyed when he heard this. He went out for a while and then came back. The breeze behind him was holding a pile of brand new clothes.
The old Taoist unfolded it and looked at it, then reluctantly took the Taoist crown and new shoes and said to Qingfeng: "You go to the restaurant at the end of the alley to pay for it, and buy another two cents of wine."
"Yes, Master." Qingfeng took the Taoist crown and new shoes without being surprised.
After a while he brought some meat and wine.
In the evening, Liu Laodao treated Lingqing to a meal of wine and meat.
Last night, Liu Laodao lost all the incense money given by Lingqing and did not go out again today. After eating wine and meat, he went to bed early.
