The illusion in front of Wei Yuan and the chaotic sound of Buddhist scriptures in his ears slowly subsided after a long time.
In front of him was still the surging Huai River and the quiet abyss. Wuzhiqi raised his palm on Wei Yuan's shoulder and watched the latter stagger to the ground, panting, and asked thoughtfully: "The one you saw before is the so-called Sangha? The reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva?"
Wei Yuan looked pale and nodded.
Wuzhiqi sneered: "It seems that this lineage has a strong inheritance in Shenzhou."
Wei Yuan had no strength to respond to him. He finally took a breath and frowned slightly when he thought of what he had just seen.
A thought kept lingering in his mind.
Just now, because of the illusion of Sengjia contained in the jade dragon, he was connected to the Nanhai Guanyin Temple. Wei Yuan could only come to the conclusion that Sengjia, a monk who came to the Central Plains Shenzhou during the Tang Dynasty, really survived in the world, but this was almost absurd to the point of impossibility. Zhang Daoling had never done it. How did he do it?
If we put this matter aside and trace back the time, Sengjia arrived in Shenzhou during the Tang Dynasty.
In other words, Yinglong Gengchen was likely to leave during the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
The Kunlun Incident also occurred during that time period.
What happened at that time?
Sui Dynasty, Tang Dynasty...
Wei Yuan suppressed his surging emotions and closed his eyes in deep thought. Wuzhiqi ignored him and just drank by himself. Wei Yuan pondered for a long time and suddenly realized a huge problem at a time point. His face changed slightly. In the Tang Dynasty, Shenzhou was a truly celestial kingdom, and all nations came to pay tribute.
It was during this era that the monk Sakurajima traveled east, Xuanzang traveled west, and Sangha entered the pass. There were even missionaries from distant Europe who traveled thousands of miles to spread their religion to the Tang Dynasty, which was called Nestorianism, and built temples.
This represents cultural integration in the eyes of ordinary people, but at this moment, after the extraordinary worldview is also connected, it is not so simple. This not only represents the unparalleled national strength of the Tang Dynasty, but also represents that the difficulty for extraordinary practitioners from the outside world to enter Shenzhou has been greatly reduced.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the monks who traveled west had to pay tribute to Buddhist treasures in order to build temples under the noses of the Sili Xiaowei and 1,200 Zhongdu officials and prisoners. They were trembling with fear.
That is, Luoyang White Horse Temple.
Wei Yuan thought of the inheritance of the Sili Xiaowei that he had found.
Originated from the Great Zhou Dynasty, began in Han Wu, and ended in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
In the Tang Dynasty, Crouching Tiger no longer existed in China, and various forces poured into China as they were conquered by the Tang Dynasty. When the world was peaceful, it also laid the hidden danger of future collapse for the powerful Celestial Empire. Sengjia also entered China during this period.
What a pity...
Wei Yuan suddenly felt a little regretful. If Crouching Tiger still existed in the Tang Dynasty, it would be either Yuchi Jingde or Qin Qiong, a god of war.
And if Crouching Tiger still existed in the Tang Dynasty, how could Sengjia dare to touch the divinity of China? Crouching Tiger hunted the world, who dared to do so? He had to personally go to the scroll of strange and chaotic gods, but historical events were hidden in the fog, and it was even more impossible to change them. After thinking about it, the only evaluation was the two words "pity".
Wei Yuan wrote the word "Tang" on the ground with his fingers, and was slightly absent-minded.
He sorted out some things in the past, but found a bigger puzzle. What happened in the Tang Dynasty, or during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, that could make Crouching Tiger disappear? What caused Kunlun to be in trouble and Yinglong to go west?
If Sengjia is still alive, where is he hiding now?
How did he do it?
After thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out clearly.
Just thinking about the crisis he almost encountered when he looked into the fantasy before, Wei Yuan also knew that he should never touch these things now. He should find a way to improve his own strength and Taoism to deal with these things hidden in the past years, so he suppressed his doubts and erased the word Tang.
Wuzhiqi glanced at Wei Yuan with his golden eyes, and said with a little gloating: "You cut down the stone statue of their ancestor. You may have troubles when you get out. Those monks may not let you go. I just heard that they called you the enemy of Buddha."
Wei Yuan pondered, thinking of the situation when he first met Crouching Tiger Order, so he replied:
"Strictly speaking, it is the enemy of Buddha."
Wuzhiqi was surprised.
Wei Yuan took off his mask and sat on the ground. He put his hands on his knees, his back straight, his expression calm, his eyes staring at Wuzhiqi, and replied:
"Those who offend our Shenzhou, even if they are strange and powerful, should be arrested and killed."
Wuzhiqi's eyes widened, looking at Wei Yuan for a long time without saying a word, and suddenly laughed out loud, laughing so heartily that the whole water area shook and rolled, and the chains whistled. He waved his hand heavily and said loudly: "Good!!!"
He laughed again.
Swallow all the strong liquor.
Wei Yuan put away the jade dragon, drank and stood up. The matter here has been resolved. He finally saw some unknown things in history. But when he was about to leave, the chain on Wuzhiqi's body shook, and he said again: "Does it count as saving your life again?"
Wei Yuan was surprised. He didn't know why Wuzhiqi mentioned this at this time, but he still nodded.
Wuzhiqi said: "I want you to do something."
He pointed to the surrounding waters and sighed:
"The Huai River here has been deposited here for thousands of years. Ten thousand rivers flow eastward. They have been here. I can't get out. They haven't entered the East China Sea for thousands of years. It's far from enough to kill some insignificant monsters. I want you to take these Huai Rivers to cruise the Huai River and re-enter the East China Sea."
Wei Yuan's eyes twitched.
Before, he did the so-called Water Lord's Eastern Tour, but what he did before was completely different from what Wuzhiqi was going to do. He was going to walk from the Huai River to the East China Sea as a demonstration after killing the monsters and demons in this area.
This will definitely bring corresponding effects, and they are extremely huge.
Wei Yuan looked at Wuzhiqi and saw that he really hoped that the Huai River, which was trapped here with him, could return to the East China Sea. However, considering the impact, Wei Yuan was still a little hesitant. Wuzhiqi did not get angry, but just said: "If it is difficult, then let it go."
Wei Yuan hesitated for a moment, looked at Wuzhiqi, did not lie or evade, and said bluntly:
"This kind of thing will have an impact on modern society. I am also a person of this era, so I can't agree rashly. However, I can ask the people in charge of this kind of thing in the contemporary world whether they agree to this matter."
"Water Lord, wait a moment."
Wuzhiqi was surprised, and also curious about what magic Wei Yuan would use to notify the other party.
This is the bottom of the Huai River, a long way from the sects in the human world.
Then I saw Wei Yuan take out a mobile phone from his pocket.
Wuzhiqi was stunned:
"???!"
......
It turns out that the special operations team's claim that they can receive signals even in the ditch is not bragging.
As long as it is not interfered by extraordinary factors, you can completely trust the signal of this thing.
Wei Yuan sent a message to Zhang Ruosu, a netizen of Tianshi Mansion.
"Daoyou, I have a friend who may make some noise in the Huai River."
"I wonder if there is any way to cover it up? Or is this convenient?"
At this time, Zhang Tao and others had already passed on what they had encountered to Tianshi Mansion.
The sudden appearance of the two guardian gods was enough to make people's scalps numb.
Then there was the Huai River evil god.
It was the mysterious man who killed all the Huai River evil gods.
When Tianshi Zhang Ruosu was in seclusion, this kind of thing almost made all kinds of disciples under his sect have a headache. At this time, Zhang Yun stumbled and held the old Tianshi's mobile phone and found several uncles in the sect.
When the monks who were having a headache because of the abnormality of the Huai River saw this line of words, their eyes twitched. They looked at each other in silence and discussed for a long time:
"This is the owner of the hall..."
"According to Zhang Tao, the two guardian gods were most likely summoned by this person with a talisman."
"Who is his friend? Is it the monk who killed the evil god?"
"This... I'm afraid not."
"How high does the Taoism have to be to summon the gods?"
Many Taoists argued with each other and finally made corresponding judgments. They believed that the other party should have nothing to do with the two things that happened in the Huai River. What he said before about paying attention to the Huai River may be related to his friend. The friend may be a monster in the Huai River waters and intends to go out and stir up trouble.
"But no matter what, the fact that there is an evil god in the Huai River and that a cultivator killed the evil god is already big enough. If there is any more trouble, it may affect the lives of ordinary people down the mountain. The master is in seclusion now, so we have to refuse according to the rules of Tianshi Mansion."
The one who spoke was a middle-aged Taoist.
He took the phone and was about to refuse. Before he could do anything, a hand silently reached out from behind and grabbed the phone back without saying a word. The Taoist was shocked. He turned around and saw an old man in a simple Taoist robe standing there. The Taoists were startled and hurriedly stood up to salute.
The middle-aged Taoist priest who had spoken earlier bowed and said:
"Grandmaster."
He explained: "There are many things happening on both sides of the Huai River at the moment. I am worried that if this person's friend behaves abnormally again, it may have an adverse impact on the mortal world and interfere with the lives of ordinary people."
Zhang Ruosu said slowly: "Let him interfere."
The Taoist priest was stunned and looked up and said: "This... Grandmaster?"
Zhang Ruosu glanced at everyone and said: "The era of spiritual power revival will eventually come, and people who have not practiced should slowly learn some things, so as to avoid causing a real panic when things really unfold..."
The middle-aged Taoist priest said:
"This... Grandmaster said Yes, but the method for ordinary people to practice has not been researched yet. "
Zhang Ruosu smiled and said, "That's great, force them to produce results quickly."
"Besides, ordinary people, what are ordinary people? You and I are ordinary people, we can practice, everyone can practice, I think it's not that we can't produce results, but that we are unwilling to produce results. Usually we think that we have Taoism and true practice, and think that others are ordinary people, and even worse, mortals. What is this called?"
"Oh, by the way, according to the fashionable sayings of those young people, this thing is called superiority, being superior to others."
The old Taoist stroked his beard, feeling a little proud of the barrage of words that came out of his mouth.
The middle-aged Taoist priest hurriedly said, "How dare I do this?"
Zhang Ruosu glanced at him and asked, "Then let me ask you, what do I practice in Longhu Mountain..."
The middle-aged Taoist priest said respectfully, "To be in harmony with the Great Dao, to know the law of nature."
"Since I entered the mountain, I have been practicing with all my heart, and I dare not forget even a little bit."
Zhang Ruosu nodded and asked again:
"Then, if there are more people practicing in the world, will it affect your own attainment of the Tao?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest said, "...No, the practice of Taoism lies in oneself."
Zhang Ruosu said again, "If you are the only one practicing Taoism in the world, can you attain Taoism?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest's face gradually turned pale and said, "No."
Zhang Ruosu sighed, "If everyone in the world practices Taoism, it cannot harm you in the slightest; if you are the only one practicing in the world, it cannot benefit you in the slightest, so why do you want to Preventing ordinary people from getting in touch with the true cultivation method and practicing it?"
"Do you think that if everyone practices the truth, you will no longer be special and become the same as ordinary people? Then what you practice is not the great way, but a position higher than all living beings. That can be called power and profit, or desire or position, but it is not called the way."
"Are you coming to Longhu Mountain to seek power or the way?"
The old Taoist looked into the distance calmly, his eyes slightly narrowed, and said:
"I have practiced for decades."
"Do you still remember the way of Zhengyi Mengwei? Do you know what "True Oneness is Not Two" is?"
This sentence is extremely important. When everyone heard it, it was almost like a thunderbolt from the bottom of the ground. They were so shocked that they were sweating and speechless. They had never realized that they had such selfish desires in their hearts. Even in modern times, they all bowed down, their faces pale, and a sense of shame emerged in their hearts.
Zhang Ruosu sighed and said, "The future trend of the world is irreversible. It is better to open it than to block it. We should slowly let the general public get in touch with the other side of the world, and then popularize the method of cultivation to be successful. If the spiritual energy recovers faster, it will not cause panic. This is an opportunity."
He casually sent a message to Wei Yuan on the opposite side and asked:
"Is it my Shenzhou power?"
Wei Yuan quickly replied: "Of course."
Then he saw Zhang Ruosu send a message immediately afterwards: "How big is the movement."
"It will probably be very big."
The old Taoist pondered for a moment and said, "Can it be bigger?"
Wei Yuan: "...How big is it, fellow Taoist?"
"Don't hurt anyone, it's as big as you want."
Wei Yuan looked at this line of words and was silent for a while, then looked at Wuzhiqi next to him, thinking that Zhang Ruosu should not be very clear about the situation. This kind of thing is not a joke. He originally wanted Zhang Ruosu to ask the senior management of the Tianshi Mansion, rather than dragging Zhang Ruosu into the puddle, so he pondered for a while and sent a message.
Next to Zhang Ruosu, the Taoist priest who had just stood up subconsciously glanced and saw a new line of text on his phone.
"Is this what you meant, Taoist friend, or what your master and grandmaster meant..."
The Taoist priests of the Tianshi Mansion were confused.
They subconsciously looked at the contemporary Tianshi who was over a hundred years old.
Excluding the content, they could easily see that the person on the other side was considering it. His tone was very cautious and polite, with a hint of suspicion and well-intentioned advice.
But, grandmaster and grandmaster...
They opened their mouths and were speechless for a while.
Zhang Ruosu knew that the other side probably thought he was a young man, so he asked this question, but the old Taoist priest looked at the expressions of the disciples next to him and found it quite interesting, so he didn't intend to explain at all. Yes, the old Taoist priest is a young man.
Complacent.
Zhang Ruosu quickly pressed the answer button.
Wei Yuan's phone vibrated, and he saw an emoticon package sent by Zhang Ruosu.
A group of cat heads making a "yeah" gesture.
Wei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and sent a message to Zhang Ruosu.
"?(●′?`●)??(●′?`●)?"
The old Taoist couldn't help laughing, then looked around at his disciples and said, "He agreed."
The Taoists around him opened their mouths, puzzled by the way the two communicated, and then comforted themselves, maybe this is what the elders do.
It's normal that I can't keep up with the pace.
Wei Yuan turned his head and looked at Wuzhiqi, and said cautiously:
"It can be done."
