Chapter 229: The Three Brothers of the Mao Family
Wu Feng didn't say anything, and acted as if he was listening attentively, staring at the white-haired old man. Baidu search,
The old man with white hair pondered for a moment and finally opened up the conversation. He slowly said: Many years ago, there was a man named Mao Ying in Xianyang, Shaanxi. He went to Hengshan to practice Taoism at the age of nineteen. After returning home to visit his parents at the age of forty-nine, he came to Juqu Mountain, Jiangsu to concentrate on practicing. He worked at sunrise and returned at sunset, boiled medicine and elixirs, studied Taoist scriptures, cured diseases and cured diseases for the local people of Maoshan, and accumulated virtues, and was loved by the villagers. Finally one day, people suddenly could no longer see this old Taoist named Mao Ying, and thought that he had achieved perfect merit and became an immortal. Mao Ying had two younger brothers,
One was called Mao Gu and the other was called Mao Zhong. They were originally from the officialdom. Before Mao Ying disappeared, they heard that the eldest brother Mao Ying had achieved great success in practicing Taoism. At that time, the two of them had not had a satisfactory career in the officialdom. So they traveled thousands of miles to Juqu Mountain, followed the eldest brother Mao Ying to practice Taoism, and cured the people's illnesses and poverty. Not long after Mao Ying disappeared, the two brothers Mao Gu and Mao Zhong suddenly disappeared. The local people thought that the two brothers had achieved the merits and had attained Taoism and became immortals. In order to commemorate the merits of the three brothers of the Mao family, people changed Juqu Mountain to Sanmao Mountain, referred to as Mao Shan.
Speaking of this, the old white-haired man suddenly paused, looked at Wu Feng beside him, and asked lightly: Now do you know the origin of the Maoshan lineage?
Wu Feng nodded, but was still a little confused, so he asked: Old man, after hearing what you said, the Maoshan lineage was founded by the three Mao brothers, so the three of them must have taken in many apprentices, which allowed the Maoshan lineage to be carried forward and passed down to this day.
At that time, the three Mao brothers were very famous, so naturally there were many disciples. However, these disciples only learned a little bit of the fur of the three brothers, and they still don’t know what they have been ruined. The white-haired old man said with regret.
Wu Feng looked at the expression of the old man with white hair and didn't know what to say for a moment. He opened his mouth but still didn't say a word.
Both of them were silent for a while, and the white-haired old man suddenly asked again: Young man, do you believe that the three Mao brothers have become immortals?
Wu Feng touched his head, thought for a while, and hesitated: Who knows about this? I think since the three Mao brothers have the ability to establish the Maoshan lineage, they must be so profound that the Taoist Dharma is so profound that it is really possible to become an immortal. But according to me, there are no gods and ghosts in this world? If there are really gods and immortals, they should save the people from water and fire. Now the world is in chaos, and wars are everywhere, and many people die every day. Why are there no gods and immortals in charge?
After hearing what Wu Feng said, the old white-haired man suddenly burst out laughing, and his white hair trembled again. He touched Wu Feng's head and said loudly: All the people who practice Taoism in this world are just for the purpose of becoming an immortal, but they are not as thorough as you, a young boy. You are right. The three brothers of the Mao family did not become an immortal, but they did not really die.
