Chang'an City, somewhere in the west of the city.

When Zuo CI got out of the carriage and opened the door of his house, several Taoist like alchemists welcomed him. One by one, they looked at Zuo CI with expectant looks on their faces.

They are all Taoists with Zuo Ci, and they are all alchemists following Zuo CI. Among them, Ge Xuan, a disciple of Zuo CI. Ge Xuan is very famous in history. He is a Taoist and a teacher of heaven.

But now Ge Xuan is just a disciple studying with Zuo CI.

Ge Xuan was in his early thirties. His bun was fixed with a wooden hairpin. He had three short whiskers under his jaw. He was handsome and elegant. When he saw Zuo Ci, he said, "master, I'm going to see Zhang Xiu. I don't know if it's going well?"

Zuo CI said, "well, not well."

As he spoke, he went straight in.

After he entered the hall and sat down, the rest of the disciples also sat down, their faces full of curiosity.

All right?

Not good?

What does that mean?

All of them didn't understand Zuo Ci's words. They were looking forward to Zuo Ci, waiting for him to solve his doubts.

Ge Xuan's eyes turned. After thinking for a while, he asked, "master, it's because Zhang Xiu made it difficult for him to say that it's not smooth. To say that it is smooth is to achieve the goal at last. Does Zhang Taiwei agree to pray for rain three days later? "

Zuo CI shook his head and replied, "no, Zhang Taiwei didn't ask me to pray for rain."

"Ah

Ge Xuan heard the words and exclaimed.

Zhang Xiu did not agree, which means that Zuo Ci's visit to Zhang Xiu was a failure.

Ge Xuan said: "now there is a severe drought in Guanzhong, and not a drop of rain has fallen in two or three months. In many fields, it has cracked. Even the trees in the mountains are wilting. Today, Zhang Guanzhong should be in charge of embroidery. Why would he refuse? "

Zuo CI does not hide, immediately said that in Taiwei's house, Zhang Xiu broke the trick in public.

All the people were shocked.

No one thought that Zhang Xiu was so powerful that she could see through their means. Even Zhang Xiu left Zuo CI speechless. Everyone can guess how embarrassed Zuo Ci was at that time.

Ge Xuan asked: "master, Zhang Xiu broke down all kinds of Taoism. What happened later? You just said all kinds of things. But actually, it's just the part that's not going well. What's going well? "

Zuo CI said: "Zhang Xiu accepted me as a teacher and appointed me as a real person to govern the alchemists and Taoists in his jurisdiction."

WOW!!

Everyone got excited.

Zuo Ci's official status means that he has the approval of the government, which makes it easier for them to act.

Alchemy is more convenient.

Ge Xuan arched his hand and said: "Congratulations, master. With Zhang Xiu's real identity, he has been on a higher level ever since. At least in Guanzhong area, the master can make me famous as a Taoist. "

Zuo CI shook his head and said, "it's still a long way to go. Now the Lord has given me a task. Let's destroy the people like witches, gods and ghosts and expel them. Please handle this matter well. The Lord will not only give me official status, but also you. I'm a real person in Guanzhong. At that time, you can be in every county. "

When they heard this, they were all excited.

Everyone wants something.

Or seek fame!

Or profit!

Or for obsession!

……

Most of Zuo Ci's followers are alchemists. Many of them ask for immortals, but they don't really ask for them. It's because I have no other strong points. I just want to find a new way to cut in from the aspect of daomen.

It's a shortcut.

Of course, there are also people like GE Xuan, who were born in a famous family and had a scholarly family. As long as he is willing, he can easily become an official and become an official, but he likes Taoism and alchemy.

Zuo CI looked at the crowd and said, "although I have a command from my Lord, I can mobilize the strength of all parties. But it is not easy to solve this problem. Now, we have to wipe out all the witches and gods one by one. In the whole Guanzhong area, there can't be any more witches offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods. We can only respect Taoism. "

At this time, Taoism was no longer the early one governing state affairs.

In the early Western Han Dynasty, when Confucianism was not respected alone, Taoism had the skill of governing the country and paid attention to Huang Lao's way of governing by doing nothing. Today's Taoism has become a religion.

When people heard Zuo Ci's words, they were all faintly excited.

After Zuo CI settled the crowd, his eyes fell on Ge Xuan. Compared with the rest of Zuo Ci's disciples, Ge Xuan was born in a famous family, could read and read, could study classics, and had more plasticity.

Zuo cizheng said: "disciple, if Taoism wants to really stand, it is not only by completing the task of the Lord. In addition, we need someone who is familiar with Taoist classics and can explain the way of heaven. "

After a pause, Zuo CI said, "you have the best talent in this respect. You should study classics hard. I am a Taoist. I can't just be a teacher. I need more people. Taoism is not only seeking immortality, but also a science. It's hard to be a hall of elegance only by ghost tricks. ""I understand!"

When GE Xuan heard this, he looked solemn.

He followed Zuo Ci not only because he knew all kinds of alchemy, but also because he knew many Taoist classics and could elaborate more works according to them.

This is what GE Xuan admired Zuo CI. As for some unorthodox tricks, they are not enough to worry about. The backbone of the unorthodox is just a way to attract people's attention or develop believers.

"Step on it! Step on it

A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.

A Taoist enters.

After the Taoist entered, he bowed to Zuo Ci and said, "master, there is a notice posted outside. Three days later, in the morning, Zhang Taiwei will set up an altar in the center of the city to pray for rain. "

"I see!"

Zuo CI waved his hand and let Dao Tong back.

After Tao Tong left, Zuo CI looked at GE Xuan and said in a deep voice, "do you see that? We can watch the sky at night, judge that it will rain three days later, and the Lord can make accurate judgment. "

"At that time, in Taiwei's house, I was just run by the Lord, writing about the time of praying for rain. At that time, the Lord also gave three days. Under the Lord's command, there are talented people and scholars. "

"And what the Lord shows is that he doesn't reject the theory of ghosts and gods."

"He knew it was going to rain, but he took the initiative to pray for rain. That is to take advantage of this opportunity to win the hearts of the people and let the people trust him more. With the protection of ghosts and gods and the aura of God, countless people are more devoted to the Lord. "

Zuo CI said: "this is the Lord. He is worthy of being a hero."

Ge Xuanhan said: "it's true that Taiwei Zhang is not a simple man. He has a very accurate grasp of the opportunity. Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are not his rivals. If you follow Zhang Taiwei, you may be able to carry forward daomen. "

Zuo CI said: "I hope so. If we can carry forward Taoism, this life will be enough."

After a pause, Zuo CI said, "well, don't delay. Go and clean up. We'll start from Chang'an. These three days, we strive to build up momentum for the Lord and create a side where the Lord is favored by God. We'll solve the rest of the problems after we go to Chang'an. "

"Here it is

Ge Xuan hears the speech, turns around and retreats.

Zuo Ci was sitting alone in the hall, looking slightly excited. He is a Taoist and inherits the knowledge of Taoism. In fact, even the theory of alchemy is just the appearance of Zuo CI.

What he hopes to recover is the knowledge of Taoism, which will be more glorious than Confucianism. This is what Zuo CI doesn't want.

In this world, the Confucianists have been respected for hundreds of years.

Taoist people have been living in seclusion, but it is not necessarily that Taoism has disappeared. Zuo CI has his own ideas and ambitions.
