Chapter 59 The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty
"Headache, headache, so cold, so cold..." Xie Yu opened his eyes with difficulty. He fell into the water again. Although he didn't know how much water he drank this time, he could be washed to the shore by the water. Consider yourself lucky.
Using Xie Yu's last strength, Xie Yu finally climbed to the shore and lay down, but he couldn't sleep now. He might really die if he slept.
Thinking of this, Xie Yu assumed a very familiar "Shen Sutra" posture and adjusted her breath.
After Xie Yu entered the state, all kinds of turbid water vapor began to appear on Xie Yu's body. I don't know how long it took, but Xie Yu suddenly felt his stomach churning. At this time, his heart was vibrating, and he was unable to maintain the state of regulating his breath and exercise.
Then Xie Yu began to vomit heavily, and there was a lot of filthy black blood in the vomit, needless to say.
However, Xie Yu just took two breaths and vomited again. He didn't feel it just now, but now he feels it. The surrounding area is also smelly. Could it be that he has arrived at the lair of the River God?
Xie Yu looked at the smelly things around him and felt that he might have come to the place where some evil beasts were excreting sewage.
However, Xie Yu ignored the filth and picked up a piece of armor the size of a human face. He was also surprised. What kind of giant beast had such a big piece of armor?
At this time, Xie Yu recalled the memory in his mind. It seemed to be the seventh or eighth year of Daye in the Sui Dynasty. This time it went back to the Song Dynasty, hundreds of years ago, during the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
According to the records of the Song Dynasty, it seems that the Sui Dynasty died in two generations, but it is recorded as the Tang Dynasty. It seems that the current emperor is the second emperor of the Sui Dynasty. This emperor was very happy with his achievements, and he abused the people's power in the southern and northern wars, so he died.
In this life, Xie Yu is a Taoist priest of the Southern Tianshi Dao. With Lu Xiujing as his ancestor, he majors in "Laozi Xiang'er Commentary". Because he likes to read Taoist scriptures and is proficient in fasting rituals, it has been raining in Baling this time, which has affected farming. Xie Yu was ordered to perform fasting rituals to pray for good weather.
After Xie Yuzhai bathed for three days, he first offered sacrifices to the river god, but for some unknown reason, he fell into the water and woke up here.
This original person, Xie Yu, was a civilian Taoist priest, not a divine general who protected the Dharma. He only knew some health-preserving exercises, physical fitness and boxing, and was not very proficient in martial arts. If he could survive, it should be the right time for Xie Yu to pass through, otherwise these filthy things would Same.
But now that he's awake, Xie Yu plans to get out of here first, it's too smelly.
Xie Yu was very curious about these armor pieces. He picked up all the armor pieces he saw. After a while, he collected a few pieces.
Fortunately, the clothes of the ancients were wide and not heavy, so Xie Yu kept them in his arms.
Then he walked out towards the bright light. To be honest, Xie Yu originally wanted to wash up first, but looking at the dark black water, he felt a little scary. Maybe he had soaked in too much water!
Not long after, a large stone turtle that was more than eight feet long and eight feet high appeared in front of Xie Yu. This stone turtle seemed to be just about to leave the water and land, with its hind feet still soaked in the water.
Xie Yu came closer and took a closer look, and saw faint patterns on the back of the stone turtle. He quickly jumped up and saw that the back of the turtle was covered with intricate symbols and patterns.
Like innate gossip, Xie Yu had done some research on practicing Taoism and martial arts, but after some research, he felt that he couldn't see anything for a while, so he gave up.
Then Xie Yu continued to walk forward, and when he came to the door, he saw a stone plaque at the entrance, engraved with three large characters "War Temple", in large seal script, each character is about ten feet in size.
Xie Yu thought to himself, is it the tomb of the general called the God of War? However, there were many generals claiming to be the God of War in his memory, and he couldn't tell with his limited knowledge.
Going inside, Xie Yu found that the tomb was too big. It was no problem to build it with modern technology, but in ancient times, it took an unknown amount of manpower.
But this is too high, over a hundred meters. I really don’t know how the ancients did it. Did the ancients have giants? .
When he arrived at the main hall that might have been built by a giant, the front of the huge hall and the jade on both sides were at least a hundred or two hundred meters away from him. He really felt as small as an ant.
On the huge wall facing the entrance, there is a line of large seals carved from top to bottom, running straight down from the top of the hall, at least eighty or ninety meters apart from the beginning to the end, and each character is about ten feet square.
The book reads: The world is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs.
Seeing these ten characters, Xie Yu frowned slightly. These ten characters come from the Tao Te Ching. Of course, these ten characters exist in many other Taoist classics written by Xie Yu.
According to Taoism, heaven and earth are benevolent and breed all things. Heaven and earth gave birth to all things without any desire to get any reward.
So the real meaning is that heaven and earth see all things as the same as that lost straw dog. They are not particularly good to people, but are particularly bad to other things.
Xie Yu walked forward, thinking about these words, and suddenly noticed that under the words "Heaven and Earth are unkind and treat all things as stupid dogs", there seemed to be a person sitting cross-legged facing the wall, with a tall back and well-dressed Ancient, not modern.
Xie Yu quickly approached and found that this person was just a skeleton and a mummy. There were several things beside the mummy. Xie Yu had experienced a lot and was not afraid. He only thought that this person might be someone buried with him, but he didn't expect it to be so well preserved. .
Xie Yu looked closer and saw that this man had a solemn face and a peaceful smile on his lips. Most of his hair and clothes had been removed, but the expression on his face was the same as that of a stranger.
Seeing this man's left hand hanging down, there is a line of small characters on the ground, which reads: "Guangchengzi proves that the Shattered Vajra is here". Several seal characters, and the middle finger touching the ground, are just embedded here where the last stroke of castration ends. There is no doubt that this Several Yus were carved out on the ground by his skills.
Isn't Xie Yudaqi, Guangchengzi, the teacher of the Yellow Emperor in myths and legends?
The Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan and Chi You won a great victory after competing in the Central Plains, conquered the world, and created Chinese civilization. The Yellow Emperor can be said to be a generation of war gods. Later, in Taoist legends, the Yellow Emperor finally returned to the palace with three thousand maidens, and then rode a dragon to ascend to immortality.
By the way, among the books Xie Yu started studying medicine, there is a chapter in the "Huangdi Neijing". Is this the Yellow Emperor's tomb?
But Huangdi’s teacher Guangchengzi said: Guangchengzi realized that the Broken Vajra is here. What does it mean?
From a literal point of view, it seems that after the Yellow Emperor ascended, this teacher Guangchengzi also wanted to ascend. Although he succeeded, it was only the soul that ascended, leaving the body behind, and the body is in the Taoist Vajra, which means solid and indestructible.
At this time, Zhang Xiao looked at the top of the palace. A hundred meters above the ground, there was a circular object embedded in the center of the roof, with a diameter of five or six meters.
It emits blue-yellow light, like an indoor sun, bathing the entire huge palace in thousands of green lights.
Center on this light source.
There is a large circle with a diameter of fifty or sixty meters on the top of the hall, but there is not a single pillar or a thing in this huge hall. There is a relief about two feet square on the ground in the center of the hall. On the left and right walls, there are also about ten feet square on each side. There are twenty-four reliefs each, and together with the reliefs in the center of the palace, the number is exactly forty-nine.
The relief on the floor in the center of the palace is exquisitely carved. It depicts a god wearing strange armor and a mask. Sitting on his crotch is a monster that looks like a dragon but not a dragon. Nine thick clouds are split from the upper left corner. Flying through.
It rushed towards a blood-red fireball in the lower right corner. Next to each thick cloud, there were written the ninth heaven, the eighth heaven, and the lowest first heaven from top to bottom.
There are five large characters on the top of the relief, which is the first picture of the God of War.
Then from the first, second, third, and forty-eighth pictures, when Xie Yu looked at the forty-ninth picture, he found that except for the forty-nine Shattered Void in the God of War Illustration, there was no one on it. The case was brought to a halt.
Finally, Xie Yu's eyes began to look backwards again, and his eyes were on the forty-eighth blessing relief sculpture, and he saw the writing on it was the forty-eight, illustrated book of the God of War, Return to Nine Heavens.
The god of war, who looked like a god of heaven, flew upwards from the lower right corner on the dragon-like monster, passed through the nine layers of clouds, and flew to the upper left corner, which is exactly the opposite direction to the first picture.
It was very strange. After Xie Yu looked at the Forty-nine Blessings reliefs again, he found that he could no longer forget them. He just felt that they seemed to form an epic poem, an epic story describing the story of the "Upper World".
Moreover, Xie Yu has a guess that the person recorded in this relief catalog may be Emperor Xuanyuan. The relief may record his ascension and fighting process, and the recorder may be his teacher Guangchengzi.
