In the days that followed, the noise of the Yellow Turban Uprising in Nanzhan Buzhou became louder and louder.
The atmosphere in heaven became increasingly tense visibly.
Just like Nezha, the gods who saw through the essence behind this and knew the secrets of ancient times watched all this with fear, fearing that the events of ancient times would happen again and they would be involved in the catastrophe.
And even those who were superficial, although they didn't know what was going on, they could see that something was not right.
Since the news of Nanzhan Buzhou spread to heaven, the Jade Emperor became angry more and more often in court meetings.
Many civil and military officials were severely punished because they accidentally touched the Jade Emperor's brow due to a slip of the tongue.
For a moment, people in the heaven were in panic, and all the gods were as silent as cicadas. They only dared to discuss the matter of Nanzhan Buzhou in secret.
Nezha has many temples in the mortal world, has a lot of friends in the sky, and is qualified to participate in court meetings. He is well-informed and will share the information he has learned with Li Anran from time to time.
The content is similar to the Yellow Turban Uprising on Earth.
After Zhang Jiao's uprising, he called himself "General Tiangong", and his brothers Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were called "General Digong" and "General Renggong" respectively. They led the thirty-six parties of Taiping Road in Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Twenty-eight counties in seven states of Yang, Yan, and Henan revolted at the same time, attacking cities and seizing territory with overwhelming momentum.
The only difference is that every time Zhang Jue captures a place, in addition to killing the corrupt officials of the Han Dynasty, he will also kill all the city gods, land and river gods and dragon kings of the Yin Division, leaving no one behind.
This can be said to be a direct slap in the face of Heaven!
That is to say, Nanzhan Continent, as the ancestral land of the human race, is suppressed by the Nine Cauldron Formation, and the human race is now the protagonist of Heavenly Dao, with profound luck.
If Zhang Jiao's matter were placed on any other continent, the army of heaven to suppress the rebellion would have already set off.
The above is what Li Anran and Nezha saw in the Yellow Turban Uprising, which is deeper and more thorough than ordinary gods.
But compared with other gods, they are far behind!
For example, Yang Jian!
In order to understand why the two sects of Heavenly Court and Interpretation brought so many disasters to the mortal world and weakened the destiny of the human race, Yang Jian deliberately caused disaster.
After sending Li Qi and Yu Hua to the sky prison, and asking their master to reflect on himself behind closed doors, and having no time to go to Nanzhan Buzhou to cause trouble, he found an excuse to come to Nanzhan Buzhou and start investigating. this matter.
Since Lei Zhenzi was silenced because he knew the inside story, he would start from the cave where Lei Zhenzi was killed and work backwards to figure out what Lei Zhenzi had experienced.
In this way, sooner or later the truth of the matter will be discovered.
However, before Yang Jian could investigate the truth, the Yellow Turban Uprising suddenly broke out.
At the beginning, Yang Jian had similar thoughts to Nezha.
I think Zhang Jiao's uprising was due to the fact that Heaven brought too many disasters to Nanzhan Continent, so that resentment entangled karma and accumulated karma, which eventually led to human Qi Refiners rebelling against Heaven.
Yang Jian was also a little gloating.
Unlike Nezha, who was born rebellious and only wished for the death of the Heavenly Court, he felt that the Yellow Turban Uprising was the result of the wanton actions of the Heavenly Court and Jiejiao and brought it upon themselves, and would surely shake the entire Three Realms.
There is also a high probability that it will force the Heavenly Court and the gods of Jiejiao to restrain themselves and not dare to be as unscrupulous as before.
But soon, Yang Jian discovered that something was wrong.
The biggest reason why Zhang Jiao and his Taiping Dao have such prestige among the human race is that Taiping Dao has survived numerous natural disasters in Nanzhan continent.
This includes their use of talisman water to cure diseases and call people during plague outbreaks, and their use of talismanic water to pray for rain on stage to resolve droughts.
At first glance, there is nothing wrong with these two, but it’s scary if you think about it carefully!
Using talismans to treat diseases and using herbs to treat diseases are completely two different things!
The latter is a glimmer of hope left by the Way of Heaven to mortals, while the former is a pure competition between Taoism and Taoism!
The plague was brought down by the Ministry of Plague under the orders of the Jade Emperor. How could Zhang Jiao, a mere mortal Qigong practitioner, easily develop a talisman that could resolve the disease?
Is this talisman so simple that even his disciples and grandchildren can master and use it easily?
Asking for rain to alleviate the drought is even more nonsense!
Yang Jian saw with his own eyes that when the Taiping Taoist priests prayed for rain in Qiao County, Yuzhou, they did not rely on their own magical powers, but relied on a talisman to go to heaven and get help from the gods of the Thunder Department in heaven!
When the two are linked together, it is not difficult to draw a conclusion——
The talismans used to treat epidemic diseases in Taiping Road were obtained from the Ministry of Plague!
The natural disasters in Nanzhan Buzhou were brought down by Heaven. Taiping Road relies on Heaven to pray for blessings and ward off disasters, and now it is coming to overthrow Heaven!
There are only two possibilities.
First, Taipingdao was originally supported by Heaven, but later it fell out with Heaven because of some things.
Secondly, Taiping Dao's rebellion against Heaven was not the rebellion of the Nanzhan tribe against Heaven, but a good show manipulated by Heaven and the gods of Jiejiao behind the scenes, and Zhang Jiao was just a pawn of theirs.
No matter which possibility it is, Zhang Jiao is the key to everything, the top priority!
Yang Jian immediately went to Jizhou and secretly observed Zhang Jiao.
It turned out that although Zhang Jiao was condensed with the human race's Golden Dragon of Luck, he was huge and powerful.
However, this golden dragon's eyes were red and its scales were gray, and the clouds surrounding it were even more mottled and messy!
This is no longer an unstable foundation, but the possibility of collapse at any time!
After further investigation, Yang Jian found the reason.
The Golden Dragon of Luck has red eyes and gray scales, because Zhang Jiao can win people's hearts. From the beginning, it relies on the trick of singing a double act with the heaven. It is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Once exposed, it will even suffer backlash.
The clouds are mottled and messy, indicating that the Taiping Road is filled with all kinds of monsters and ghosts. This is not a metaphor, but a statement!
Among the thirty-six squares of Taiping Road, most of the Qushuai were transformed into monsters. They relied on their magic to become invincible in a short period of time, but they were also cursed by the fate of the human race.
This is like a raging fire cooking oil. It seems that the scene is hot, but it is only fueling the growth. When the oil is exhausted, the flame will dim or even go out.
With these two fatal flaws, it is impossible for Zhang Jiao to succeed in his rebellion. Moreover, the greater the momentum, the faster it will decline, and the greater the backlash he will suffer.
It can range from death to death, to death of the soul, to dispersion of the soul, and will never be reincarnated.
This discovery made Yang Jian begin to think that Zhang Jiao was a pawn thrown by the gods of Heaven and Jiejiao, rather than a falling out with Heaven.
But why did Tianting and Jiejiao do this?
Yang Jian faintly felt that he was only one step away from the truth, and decided to continue to follow Zhang Jiao's line.
That night, Yang Jian transformed into a mosquito and quietly took Zhang Jue's "Essential Art of Peace" from Zhang Jiao, letting the Roaring Sky Dog remember the smell before returning it.
Afterwards, Roaring Sky Dog used the magical power of "Wonderless Tracking" and began to look for the old Nanhua Immortal who taught Zhang Jiao the "Essential Art of Peace".
Soon, Roaring Sky Dog smelled the scent of Nanhua Old Immortal, and flew to the northwest with Yang Jian.
Finally, we stopped at a place that was unexpected but also reasonable for Yang Jian - Lishan!
Lishan is the place where Old Mother Lishan’s monastery is in the mortal world, and another identity of Old Mother Lishan is the Wudang Holy Mother, one of the four major disciples of the Tongtian Sect, the head of Jiejiao!
During the battle at the Conferred God Catastrophe Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, Jiejiao was almost completely wiped out. Only Mother Wudang left first on the orders of the Tongtian Cult Leader, leaving a glimmer of hope for Jiejiao.
The incident in Nanzhan Buzhou was carried out by Jiejiao from the beginning to the end, and it makes sense that Old Mother Lishan was involved in the end!
Yang Jian asked Roaring Heavenly Dog about the location of the old immortal Nanhua in Mount Li, and asked Roaring Heavenly Dog to go to Huashan Mountain first.
He used the art of transformation and turned into a butterfly and flew into Mount Li, heading towards where the old immortal Nanhua was.
As expected, the place where Nan Hua Lao Xian is located is exactly where Li Shan Lao Mu’s Taoist temple is located!
But what Yang Jian didn't expect was that when he continued to go in, he didn't see the Wudang Virgin, but saw three acquaintances.
Sitting at the top is a middle-aged man with a black face and black beard, a ringed head and leopard eyes, wearing gold armor, green leather boots, and an iron hat.
It is none other than Zhao Gongming, the True Lord of the Golden Dragon Ruyi Zhengyi Dragon and Tiger Mysterious Altar!
Opposite Zhao Gongming sat a woman with a graceful figure and elegant appearance. She was wearing a brocade skirt with long sleeves and wide breasts, with a phoenix pattern embroidered on the cuffs. Her hair was tied up in a high bun, with tassels swaying lightly. Her movements were full of elegance and elegance. grace.
It is the Yunxiao Empress among the Three Heavens Empresses!
The appearance of these two people was expected by Yang Jian, but the last person surprised Yang Jian!
The man sat at the head of Zhao Gongming. He had a rectangular face, sword-shaped eyebrows and thin lips, and hemp shoes. He was wearing a black long-sleeved Taoist robe, a turban on his head, a sword hanging from his waist, and a wine gourd hanging on his waist.
Astonishingly, it is Shen Gongbao, the god of water-dividing generals in the East China Sea!
"Why is Shen Gongbao here?" Yang Jian was a little surprised.
During the Catastrophe of Conferring Gods, there was a tribulation aura that confuses the heavens. Shen Gongbao did many things that even the leader of Tongtian Cult did not know.
However, when the catastrophe is over, everything will naturally become clear to the world.
In order to compete with Jiang Ziya, Shen Gongbao deceived many Jiejiao disciples to go down the mountain, resulting in their death, leaving only a trace of their souls on the list of gods.
In other words, Shen Gongbao had always sincerely stood for the Yin Shang Jie Jiao and opposed the Chan Jiao, otherwise the Jie Jiao disciples would never have let him go.
However, even so, many Jiejiao disciples still had a grudge against him and were unwilling to associate with Shen Gongbao.
Shen Gongbao himself felt guilty. He had been staying in the depths of the East China Sea and rarely interacted with people. Unexpectedly, he would appear in Lishan Mountain now.
(Shen Gongbao’s body was used by Yuanshi Tianzun to fill the springs of the North Sea, almost as if he was dead, and then his soul was made a god, and he became the god of water-dividing generals in the East China Sea.)
Shen Gongbao's cultivation level was mediocre and he was just a Heavenly Immortal, but Zhao Gongming and Yun Xiao were already Daluo Golden Immortals during the Conferred God Catastrophe, and they were both considered strong men among the second generation disciples of the Three Religions.
Although Yang Jian's transformation skills are exquisite, he does not dare to be careless in front of such a person.
After confirming that the old immortal Nan Hua was a member of the Jiejiao sect, it was basically certain that Zhang Jiao's rebellion against Heaven was deliberately done by the Jiejiao sect.
Yang Jian was about to leave when he heard Zhao Gongming say anxiously: "Senior Sister Wudang has been gone for so many days, why haven't you come back yet? Could it be that there was an accident?"
I couldn't help but ask Yun Xiao on the opposite side: "Sister Yun Xiao, do you think we can make it this time?"
Yun Xiao said with relief: "Brother, don't be impatient. Senior Sister Wudang is the safest among us brothers and sisters. In the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, Master asked her to leave first, wasn't it just to leave a glimmer of hope for our Jiejiao!"
"Now that this vitality has appeared, it's up to Senior Sister Wudang to accomplish this! Brother, if you don't trust others, don't you still trust the Master?"
"Of course I believe Master!"
After Zhao Gongming finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's just that thousands of years have passed! I really can't wait any longer! If I hadn't insisted on my own way, you wouldn't have fallen to where you are now! "
Yun Xiao said: "Brother, what happened back then is in the past, why bother mentioning it again! What's more, even if I didn't go down the mountain at that time, I would still go to the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation with Master! Brother, relax, as long as Taoist Fellow Shen Gong doesn't find you If it’s the wrong person, then there won’t be a problem in this matter.”
Shen Gongbao said hurriedly: "Brother Zhao Gongming, Empress Yunxiao, I, Shen Gongbao, dare not vouch for anything else, but Jiang Ziya, even if he reincarnates for hundreds of lives and turns into ashes, I will never admit my mistake!"
Prime Minister? !
Yang Jian was suddenly shocked. He didn't expect that this matter would involve Jiang Ziya again.
At that time, a group of disciples of the Second Sect of Interpretation and even ordinary civil servants and generals who were involved in the catastrophe of becoming gods were either granted the title of God of Heaven, or could continue to practice immortality and enjoy freedom.
Only Jiang Ziya, the person in charge of conferring gods, received nothing. He was only consecrated to a vassal king and enjoyed the glory and wealth in the world. After dying, he fell into the reincarnation of time.
At that time, generals such as Yang Jian, Nezha, Lei Zhenzi, etc. had all complained about Jiang Ziya, and begged Master Taiyi and the others to give Jiang Ziya a chance to enter the mountain gate again to cultivate and become an immortal.
However, Taiyi Zhenren and others refused on the grounds that "the number has been determined by heaven and cannot be changed by humans."
Although Jiang Ziya himself was a little disappointed, he was still very open-minded.
But Nezha Lei Zhenzi didn't want to let it go. He tried his best to extend Jiang Ziya's life, to make up for it and let Jiang Ziya enjoy a few more years of glory and wealth, but he still failed.
Jiang Ziya only lived 139 years old, died at the end of his life, entered the tunnel of reincarnation, and was reincarnated.
Yang Jian later realized that the root of all this lies in the Nailhead Seven Arrows book!
The nail-headed Seven Arrows Book is a head-lowering spell that is so powerful that even if it takes seven days for Daluo Jinxian to be shot, he will die.
However, this is performed at the expense of one's own luck and luck!
Jiang Ziya used the nail-head Seven Arrows curse to kill Zhao Gongming, and all his blessings were exhausted. This led to the ridiculous ending where the person who presided over the canonization of the gods could only become a mortal in the end.
Yang Jian realized this and stopped following Nezha Lei Zhenzi's mischief. He thought about waiting for Jiang Ziya's next reincarnation to become an immortal after Jiang Ziya's current life was over.
However, Jie Jiao did not give him this opportunity!
Jiejiao was defeated and almost destroyed in the Catastrophe of Conferring Gods, but it also controlled most of the clergy in heaven.
After Jiang Ziya's death, they erased all information about Jiang Ziya's reincarnation, causing Yang Jian's plan to fail.
Yang Jian never expected that after ten thousand years, this Jiejiao would target Jiang Ziya again!
Also, what is the glimmer of hope they are talking about?
Could it be that the leader of Tongtian had arranged some back-up plan before he left?
