Taking advantage of the chaos of the eight shackles generals, Jiang Wen did not hesitate to strike one sword after another, killing the vitality of these corpse generals and making them collapse together into dead corpses.
However, the outside of the cave was obviously blocked by heavy troops, so the two had to retreat into the cave to hide. For a while, they reached a deadlock.
"Makoto, you have been poisoned too deeply. It may have affected your brain. Stop talking and I will heal you first."
Jiang Wen was quite speechless towards this old Taoist priest who was well versed in seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, but he still used his inner strength to help him circulate his qi and eliminate poisons, trying to regain his movement first and then break out of the cave together.
As the lights in the cave dimmed, Yuan Huazi raised his hand to stop Jiang Wen with a look of sadness.
"Don't waste your energy. These monsters want to trap you inside. They'll catch you all when you're covered in poisonous smoke. You can rush out while you still have the strength..."
Jiang Wen continued to practice his skills regardless.
"Don't worry about this, I have my own plan. I'm curious, what is the purpose of these people trapping you, the real person? They don't want you to not take a shower because you are old, right?"
Yuan Huazi sighed and said in a hoarse voice: "Judging from what the demon mentioned, he must have found the "Book of Immortality" and wanted to find the Shengzhen from Manting Peak. Zhongnan shortcut..."
The old Taoist priest spoke vaguely, and seemed unwilling to mention the mystery in front of Jiang Wen.
Fortunately, Jiang Wen was not a meddlesome person - he went up the mountain tonight not only to teach the White Lotus Sect a lesson, but also to rescue the old Taoist priest.
"Master, save your energy, you'll have to run for a while later."
Jiang Wen stopped asking and pretended that he had never heard anything about Tai Shang Bu Xing's promotion to the imperial palace and Han Yuan's longevity palace incense.
But vaguely, he smelled the smell of alcohol on the old Taoist priest. The wine pot in Mingming Cave was filled with white water, so how could the old Taoist priest smell of wine? This is very unreasonable.
Jiang Wen thought on the other hand, if it wasn't drinking in the cave, could it be that Yuan Huazi drank secretly in Huixian Temple and was later caught here, causing him to smell of alcohol?
Jiang Wen distractedly recalled a meeting in the middle of the night. He only remembered that Yuan Huazi was observing pictures and meditating in the alchemy room. The room was filled with a strong and lingering smell, so it was not surprising that the smell of alcohol on his body was hidden.
Everything about tonight was bizarre.
"Master, you blame me for talking too much. These Wuyi peaks have been deserted for thousands of years. Apart from hanging coffins, they are also barren mountains. Why are they always being targeted recently?" In order to lighten the atmosphere, Jiang Wen found a topic.
Yuan Huazi pondered for a moment.
"Jiang Wen, do you know the purpose of the hanging coffin? In fact, regardless of the chain hanging coffin or the cliff hanging coffin, it is just a burial system that belongs to my Taoist family and is transformed into an immortal."
Jiang Wen shook his head: "I have seen the hanging coffin burial method deep in Wuyi Mountain. It is much older than this evil sect. I don't think it is like this."
The chisel-toothed people on the cliffs of the Minyue Royal City are the oldest cliff-burial people Jiang Wen has ever seen. Not only did they not become immortals, they also became servants of the underground barbarian monster Jie Cu. They were controlled by terrifying radio waves for life after life. Until now, they are probably still wandering in the dark and dark underground caves.
After Yuan Huazi was healed by the healing chapter of the Nine Yin Manual, the purple silk on his face had slowly faded away, revealing a bit of Taoist immortality again.
"Don't talk nonsense and read more when you have time. There is a record in "Maoshan Chronicles" about the eunuch Luo Chunyi who practiced Taoism in Maoshan during the Southern Song Dynasty. He believed that there might be a rare book buried in the tomb of Tao Hongjing, the master of the Shangqing Sect. , so they secretly dug up Tao Hongjing’s tomb for investigation.”
"After digging the tomb chamber, Luo Chunyi saw an empty coffin suspended by four iron chains, surrounded only by tomb rings and written inscriptions. Hidden on the wall was 'Huayang's seclusion in the secluded hall, the victorious Bodhisattva. , Sakyamuni Buddha's disciple, the minister of the supreme Taoist king...cultivate the three truths of the supreme purity, rest in the spiritual mountains to commemorate the deeds, travel in space to dwell in the gods.' Waiting for a letter to the Taoist master who became an immortal language, and some hidden pictorial texts.”
Jiang Wen listened with rapt attention, thinking that Patriarch Tao Hongjing was bent on practicing the three religions, Taoism and Buddhism, and he was naturally in line with the ideas of the White Lotus Sect.
"When Luo Chun saw the empty coffin, he believed that this kind of hanging coffin burial system could lead people to immortality after death, so he hurriedly copied the words and pictures on the wall. However, because the tomb marks at the back became more clumsy, difficult to distinguish, and ridiculous, in the end he just He memorized a picture of "Zojia Luo Fala Di Ho Luo Jia" and seventy-seven seal characters of Xunji. In order to search for the meaning of the characters, he visited the famous mountains all over the world and finally compiled this book "Xunji Ascension to Immortality". Book"……"
Jiang Wen was confused after hearing this, and felt a little curious about this ancient book that recorded the secret technique of ascending to immortality. Obviously the author of the book had not become an immortal, so why could these disciples be so crazy and plunge into the mountains?
Yuan Huazi seemed to see Jiang Wen's doubts and continued.
"Although Luo Chunyi did not find the way to become an immortal, he realized the superb martial arts of yin and yang and the combination of heaven and man from the Han imperial edict of the Shangqing sect "The Emperor and the Great Emperor Granted Mao Jun Nine Tin Jade Books". After his death, he dedicated the "Zojia Luo Fala Di Ho Luo Jia Tu" to Kublai Khan and transferred it to the Yuan Dynasty to serve as an enshrinement in the palace, so these deeds were spread..."
"Wait a minute! I have some questions here!"
Jiang Wen stood up suddenly in fright, shocking Yuan Huazi so much that he almost pulled off his beard, "I always feel something is wrong with this eunuch you are talking about... Do you think his martial arts puts speed first? , shaped like a ghost?"
Yuan Huazi narrowed his white beard in distress, "Well, there are rumors about this in the world, but it's just that no one has seen it after a long time..."
Jiang Wen knew it clearly without having seen it before, and some feelings were getting worse in his heart.
Jiang Wen also learned a lot about the Shangqing Sect in the past few years in the process of searching for strange things. The founding figures of this Taoist sect born in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were all from noble families and had high cultural accomplishments. The events of the Wei and Jin Dynasties were highly overlapped.
More importantly, the Shangqing sect was initiated by Yang Xi, a Taoist priest of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, who wrote the "Shangqing Zhenjing" and called it Zixu Yuanjun Shangzhensi.
There is no need to explain the meaning of Fuqi, and the Shangqing Sect also believes that through meditation, the gods of heaven and earth can enter the human body, and the gods of the human body and the gods of heaven and earth blend together!
He originally thought that Jin Yong's invasion of the Ming and Qing dynasties only subtly affected the current situation and gave birth to the characters in the book. But now it seems that Jin Yong Jianghu can still tamper with the history of this world without knowing it!
For example, Jiang Wen had heard of Luo Chunyi's story, but never heard of it. He was the former eunuch who wrote "The Sunflower Book" in Jin Yong's world!
Could it be that Jin Yong's hidden intentions were inspired by them, so the Sunflower Eunuch appeared? Or is it that the mysterious Liu Tu who created Jin Yong's world has also been communicated by them?
From the vague and unclear records in Wei and Jin's Weird Tales Notes, Jiang Wen already knew that the only way out for scholars involved in these bizarre events was death.
Now that things have happened, the context of these events in Wuyi Mountain has become somewhat apparent.
From the time Sunflower Eunuch Luo Chunyi dug the tomb, he spread the information hidden in the tomb to the world. Part of it was recorded in the "Xunji Shengxian Shu" and became Taoist secrets. "Jia Tu" fell into the hands of the Yuan Dynasty lama...
"Taoist Master, are there any other unimportant details you can tell me? I promise not to tell them!"
The more Jiang Wen thought about it, the more suspicious he became, so he decided to make some more insinuations.
Yuan Huazi may have thought that Jiang Wen was interested in martial arts, so he spoke slowly about this aspect.
"If you are interested in martial arts, you can go to Maoshan next time to borrow the treasure book "The Emperor and the Great Emperor Granted Mao Jun Nine Tin Jade Texts", but don't be deceived by them into listening to Yin Master's vomiting and only find the signed book It's the book written by Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty, Jiyouqin, on the 18th day of the eighth month of the second year of Yuanshou."
Jiang Wen murmured: "Why is it Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty again... I remember that Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty died in June of the second year of Yuanshou. How could the Shangqing sect have an autograph written by Emperor Ai of the second year of Yuanshou in August?"
Yuan Huazi pursed his lips and said nothing, with a mysterious look on his face, but suddenly a dark wind blew in the cave, making Jiang Wen's spine start to shiver...
