Lu You only needs to stay at Chentangguan to see if there is Nezha, if there is Taiyi Zhenren who teaches Kung Fu, and if there is the Dragon King of the East China Sea, he can get a glimpse of the origin of the gods. ingot
Furthermore, according to records, there are two magic weapons in Chentangguan, the Qiankun Bow and the Sky-shattering Arrow.
In the story, Nezha had nothing to do and wandered to a city wall in Chentangguan and saw a bow and a few arrows on the weapons rack. So he picked up the bow and arrow and shot an arrow into the sky.
Even though Nezha tried his best, he might not have expected that his arrow would actually kill an immortal's apprentice.
Carrying Hua Lan, Biyun Tong'er was happily gathering medicinal herbs in the mountain stream, when Nezha's arrow hit his throat without missing a beat!
Tong'er was killed by an arrow. When Empress Shiji found out, she saw the words "Li Jing, the general of Chentangguan" written in the plume flower that shot Biyun Tong'er to death.
Seeing this scene, the angry Empress Shiji used the Bagua Yunguang Pagoda to take Li Jing into the Bone Cave of Skull Mountain... and the Romance of the Gods began.
Lu You wanted to find out if there was a bow and arrow that even Li Jing couldn't draw. ingot

In the first world of birds, Lu Chan was working as a "little history" on the first level of the Kunlun Nine Heavens, copying documents sent from all walks of life every day, and continuing to plant gourds in his spare time. (For the description of Kunlun Nine Heavens, please go back and read my book "Tao Yuan Confucian Immortals". I will not go into details here.)
The documents he copied will be sent to the library. There is a large library here with a vast amount of documents. People who live here can go in and study for a whole day as long as they pay 100 jade coins.
When he catches up with Xiu Mu, Lu Chan will also take Qingmei to the library to read the information inside.
One day, he saw some "jade plates" on the bottom floor of the library, including white jade, sapphire, topaz and red jade.
He has been doing "Small History" for many years, and he understands the way of recording information in the Kunlun Mountains of the Imperial Region. The shortest preserved materials are mulberry books, followed by bamboo slips, followed by animal skin books, then jade slips, and jade slips. Further up is the jade plate. The jade plate is like a disk, a large-capacity storage tool.
He picked up a jade plate about a foot large and found that it contained quotations from many great emperors. Some of them mentioned concepts such as "witchcraft, Taoism, gods, and immortals." ingot
Lu Chan was very interested. He held the jade plate and read it with his spiritual consciousness.
What is witch? It has three major characteristics: belief in witch gods, annual sacrifices, communication with ghosts and gods, nature worship and ancestor worship. "The great things in the world are only sacrifices and wars." The great things in the world are sacrifices and wars.
What is Tao? Tao is the trajectory of all things, and it can also be said to be the changing and moving conditions of things. The sun and moon shine by themselves without being burned, the stars sequence by themselves without being lined up, animals grow by themselves without being man-made, the wind moves by itself without being fanned, water flows by itself without being pushed, grass and trees grow by themselves without being planted, breathe by themselves without breathing, and have no heartbeat. And since my heartbeat, etc. cannot be fully explained, I am like this.
What is God? Chinese gods are closely related to shamans. Pangu opened up the world and became the founding god of China. Next are the ancestor gods such as Nuhuo, Fuxi Fire Emperor, Huangdi, Shaohao, Dijun, etc., as well as the agricultural god Shennong, the fire god Zhurong, the water god Gonggong and so on. In Chinese mythology, every mountain and every river has a corresponding mountain god and river god.
What is a fairy? Immortals are great monks that people evolve through practice.
The evolution from witches and gods to immortals is ultimately due to the different levels of trust in witches and gods.
It can be said that the immortals and Buddhas of later generations are all atheists and believe that they can become immortals and Buddhas through hard work without the help of the blessings of shamans and gods. ingot
Another example is the JD and YSL religions of later generations. These monotheistic religions believe in the existence of God, and their practices are similar to those of shamans. The polytheism of Taoism and the self-becoming Buddha of Buddhism belong to the category of Xianjia civilization, which emphasizes self-cultivation.
"Witches are the way of heaven, immortals are the way of humanity." Lao Tzu was also revered as the founder of humanity.
Taoism believes that in the 17th year of Yang Jiajianzuo, the 18th emperor of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, Laojun became a deity from Taiqing and was born on February 18th of the 9th year of Wuding. This is the earliest biography about the birth of Laojun. In the 23rd year of King Zhao of Zhou Dynasty, the old man transformed into Laozi and crossed the Hangu Pass in the west. After crossing the pass, Yin Xi and his servant Xu Jia were taught the Tao Te Ching in five thousand words. He was later regarded as the founder of Taoism.
Therefore, the division between witches and immortals occurred in the period from the Shang Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty.
Lu Chan read the jade plates one by one and excerpted the important contents.
He felt that the story described in "The Romance of the Gods" might be related to the struggle between the witch and the immortal factions. Starting from the Zhou Dynasty, witches gradually disappeared and immortals began to emerge. This lasted until the Qin and Han Dynasties, and then gradually declined as the spiritual energy declined.
Some of the jade plates also recorded the cultivation techniques. Lu Chan found them very inspiring, so he excerpted them and compiled them into a book. ingot
So far, his field of vision is still relatively narrow. He has only been to the Yuan Bird Realm and the First Bird Realm, and has not been to the eight planes from the Second Bird Realm to the Nine Bird Realm, so he doesn’t know if there is Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun. .
He is a small person and has never formally visited those great emperors. He does not know where those people went after leaving the Yuaniao Realm and the First Bird Realm. He also does not know the experiences of those great emperors. Who abandoned the Witch God and transformed into Taishang Laojun? Leading the arrival of the fairy civilization.

In 2527, Lu Qingshan arrived at Jupiter on the Galaxy and left a specially made sixth-generation "Weiyang Palace" porcelain there as a settlement for humans on Jupiter.
Each piece of "Weiyang Palace" has a unique secret spell. Only by mastering the secret spell can you enter "Weiyang Palace".
Lu Qingshan announced the coordinates and secret spell to the outside world, and welcomed astronauts from all over the world to explore.
The sixth-generation Weiyang Palace has water, oxygen, a small world with a diameter of 500 meters, and a piece of land where grains can be cultivated, and humans can rest and recuperate in it. ingot
Jupiter is very cold. The atmosphere is mainly helium, followed by hydrogen, and the oxygen content is very low.
Lu Qingshan had been investigating Jupiter for several months and found a relatively warm tiankeng. There were actually dry trees in the tiankeng. Due to the lack of oxygen, those trees did not decay.
He also found spiritual veins at the bottom of the pit, including jade and diamonds, as well as precious metals such as gold and silver.
He used the Earth Escape Technique to sneak into the ground, and after a lot of effort, he found some of the essence of the mountains and rivers.
"I didn't expect that there are spirits of mountains and rivers on Jupiter! Although they are not many in number, they are of great significance to the Heavenly Witches and Heavenly Martial Masters."
He stayed in Jupiter for two years and found 50 drops of the essence of mountains and rivers.
After Lu Qingshan returned to Earth, he ordered his son Lu Lingchen, grandson Lu Xingbai, great-grandson Lu Yunfan and the next generation Lu Yuzhou, these juniors who advanced to the level of Heavenly Witch and Heavenly Martial Master, to take turns to explore Jupiter! ingot
These people continue to find spirit-gathering beads and the essence of mountains and rivers. The skills of the younger generations of the Lu family began to make a leap.
After the wood was brought back, it was handed over to experts for evaluation, and they were found to be a novel type of mahogany. After being polished and made into furniture, it was even more beautiful than Venus rosewood and ox hair rosewood.
The development of Jupiter has opened up new opportunities for the development of the Lu family.
Then Lu Qingshan began to explore Saturn. Saturn is about the same size as Jupiter, a little smaller than Jupiter, and its temperature is more than 100 degrees below zero.
He investigated here for three years and found that the spiritual veins here were richer, and the essence of mountains and rivers found was three times that of Jupiter.
He left another "Weiyang Palace" as a base, but did not announce its coordinates and secret spell to the outside world.
Since then, this place has become a training place for the descendants of the Lu family to advance to become Heavenly Witches and Heavenly Martial Masters. ingot
In addition to the essence of the mountains and rivers, they also went to the nearby asteroids to "explode", open up the world, dig into the center of the earth, and search for the tears of the stars.
It stands to reason that Jupiter and Mars also have tears of stars, but they are too large and the core temperature is too high, so they cannot be mined. Take Saturn, for example, with a core temperature as high as 11,700°C, which even a witch can't stand.
