but……
I said solemnly.
"Your Excellency is right. I am indeed not a local, but I have heard of the name of Lingnan [Two Sects and One Family]. However, since you are the son of the head of Wong Tai Sin Temple, why is your surname Liang and not Huang? Don't try to deceive me. .”
Liang Wei: "..."
There was a helpless expression on his face.
But still explain patiently.
"Fellow Taoist, our direct descendants from Wong Tai Sin Temple are all surnamed Liang."
"real or fake?"
Liang Wei said, dumbfounded.
"Of course it's true. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to fabricate a lie with such obvious flaws."
I looked back at the broken stone tablet sealed in the [Four-Five Trap Formation], thought about it, and said to him.
"Well, let's go ashore first. Tell me about the origins of your Wong Tai Sin Temple. I'm quite interested in this aspect. Then tell me about the situation of the [Holy Monument] you mentioned, and let me make a judgment."
Liang Wei nodded.
"Okay! I think fellow Taoist monks are also decent monks. After knowing the connection between my family and this [Holy Monument], I will certainly not do anything to steal people's treasures."
Good guy!
This tall hat was sent to me.
Without commenting, I stretched out my hand and snatched the frozen stone tablet from the air. A few more suppression charms were affixed, and then it was pulled to the surface of the water.
Of course, during this process, I have been carefully wary of Liang Wei - his level of cultivation is no weaker than mine!
If we really had to fight, it would be hard to say whether we would win or lose. I guess fifty-fifty.
Fortunately, he was indeed more disciplined and did not make a sneak attack while rising to the surface.
…
Wow!
Liang Wei and I flew out of the water at the same time and landed on the shore.
Because the spell was cast, the clothes on his body were naturally dry and not stained with water.
When Liu Yuanjing and his wife and children saw me coming out of the water from a distance, they happily prepared to come closer. When he saw another Taoist priest, he was suddenly surprised.
"And the Taoist priest of Wong Tai Sin Temple!"
oh?
I turned to look at him.
"Is it really from Wong Tai Sin Temple in Hong Kong?"
Liu Yuanjing said weakly.
"Looking at the Taoist robe, yes, but I'm not sure. After all, it's easy to fake clothes."
Liang Wei frowned and looked behind me again.
"Lord Holy Monument... You came out here and created so many ghosts, as well as a reservoir full of fish corpses. You still need a junior to help you clean it up."
The broken stone tablet conveyed a groaning thought, as if to say: I didn't mean it!
I looked at Liu Yuanjing.
"We'll discuss the matter of you three as a family later. Wait until I finish solving the matter at hand."
"Oh, okay, you two masters, you talk first. I won't interrupt."
He quickly backed away, keeping his wife and children far away, as if he was afraid that we would start a fight and fight, which would affect their home.
He is also a very cautious ghost!
Liang Wei and I stood by the reservoir. In the night breeze, he told the origin of the Wong Tai Sin Temple in Xiangjiang, a local spiritual giant...
"Fellow Taoist, if we talk about the ancestors of my Liang family, our Huang Tai Sin Temple lineage only has a history of more than a hundred years."
What? !
I was shocked.
In just one hundred years, it has become one of the three major spiritual powers in Lingnan, alongside Luofu Mountain, the "Maoshan Nan Sect", and Nanhua Temple, the "No. 1 Buddhist Temple in East Guangdong".
This ancestor of the Liang family is amazingly talented!
Looking at my surprised expression, Liang Wei smiled.
"Of course, this is calculated from the ancestors of the Liang family. If we start from Wong Tai Sin, it is a Taoist tradition that has been around for nearly 1,800 years."
As Liang Wei told me, I gradually learned about the magical origin of Wong Tai Sin Temple in Hong Kong...
More than ten years later, Northeastern culture has emerged on the Internet. When talking about "Wong Tai Sin", many people think of it as a weasel. My master spent a lot of time in the Northeast in his early years, and the weasel is indeed the "Huang Xian" among the "Five Immortals" that are common in the Northeast.
But in fact, before the rise of the Internet, the Wong Tai Sin in the South, especially in the Fuguang area, specifically refers to a god named Huang Chuping.
From the perspective of true practitioners, there are of course no so-called "immortals" in this world like the people in the folk and the myths and stories - they are actually just powerful practitioners.
Huang Chuping is such an extremely powerful practitioner!
He was born in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and was a native of Jinhua, Zhejiang.
According to the Records of Jinhua Prefecture, Huang Chuping was originally a farmer who herded sheep.
Once while herding sheep, I met a mysterious Taoist priest.
The young man Huang Chuping was naturally delighted at the strange sight, so he followed the mysterious Taoist priest all the way to a cave to practice Taoism.
His brother Huang Chuqi searched everywhere but could not find his whereabouts, so he could only go home and feel sad.
It was not until more than forty years later that the elderly brother saw his younger brother Huang Chuping outside the cave. The sheep that Huang Chuping once grazed have long since turned into white rocks all over the mountain.
But at this moment Huang Chuping shouted, and the stones immediately turned into a flock of sheep again.
Huang Chuqi was extremely surprised when he realized that his younger brother had become an immortal!
Practitioners naturally don't believe in the theory of becoming an immortal. But Huang Chuping must be a strong man with magical powers, there is no doubt about it.
After Huang Chuping became successful in practice, he named himself Chisongzi and moved around the south of the Yangtze River. It is said that he also had discussions and exchanges with Ge Hong, one of the founders of the Maoshan School.
Therefore, Huang Chuping's real title is "Red Pine Immortal".
The people in ancient times were uneducated and did not understand elegant naming. Since the Red Pine Immortal was named Huang, they called him "Huang Tai Immortal"...
Huang Chuping disappeared after rescuing lives and healing the wounded in Jiangnan for a period of time.
Since then, it seems to have never appeared again.
In fact, the number of ancient mysterious master monks like Huang Zhuping is not small. They appeared in the spiritual world like meteors and disappeared mysteriously. No one knew where they ended up.
Was it a retreat, a natural death, a mad obsession, or unfortunately, being killed by an evil cultivator...
But no one expected that more than 1,600 years later, in Xiqiao Mountain, Foshan, Guangdong, thousands of miles away from Zhejiang, the same farmer would unexpectedly obtain the "Red Pine Immortal" across a thousand years. Huang Chuping’s Taoist inheritance!
This farmer is the real founder of Wong Tai Sin Temple - Liang Yan'an.
Liang Ren'an was born in Xiqiao Ningang, Foshan in 1861. His family had been farmers for generations and had little education, so he made a living by farming.
Liang Ren'an helped the landlord's family herd cattle since he was a child, and occasionally went to the mountains to cut firewood and hunt to supplement the family's income.
One day when he was eighteen years old, Liang Ren'an went hunting in the mountains.
I was lucky enough to encounter a wild boar.
He is young, energetic and physically strong. Not only is he not afraid, but he feels that it is a blessing from God!
After shooting the wild boar with an arrow, he chased the wild boar all the way into the mountains...
Because Liang Ren'an wanted to hunt the wild boar so much that he lost track of time in pursuit. When he reacted, he realized that he was lost in the mountains!
By this time, the sun had set and it was dark.
He suddenly became nervous.
It is very dangerous to be alone in the mountains at night!
