Chapter 40: The Real Reason for the Conspiracy of the Dark Temple
"Tianya, too modest, I enter the chess game with the realm, you enter the chess game with martial arts, you and I have different methods, it is difficult to compare, this game of chess is not finished, you quit early, it is to give me a head in etiquette, if you don't go to the end, the victory or defeat is also difficult to solve, just like the situation of Huaxia martial arts today!"
The old man with the ancient surname also got up slowly, with a childish face, and his age seemed to be in his seventies, but my master was also that age, but he seemed to be his junior, so thinking about it, the old man with the ancient surname was much older than he looked.
"You three little guys are finally here, I Gu Yuexuan am very grateful to be able to give the old man this face!" The old man turned around and saluted my father and the three of them, and did not rely on the old man to sell the old.
"You don't have to be polite, these are what our juniors should do, it is not easy for you to be the bridge connecting the Seven Great Sects with our Dragon Dream, how can we be lazy, come to us today, is there any movement in the Seven Great Sects?" my father asked.
As I said before, although our Dragon Dream will also do our best to deal with the Dark Temple, we will not form an alliance with the seven major factions, and we will divide our troops into two ways to form two forces.
However, as we all know, the forces are too scattered, and the effect of combining them is far from being good, so secretly, we have also reached a consensus with the seven major factions that there is no clear written provision, and the two sides will regularly exchange views, use each other's strengths, and contain the dark temple with one strength, find the right time, and strike at the enemy with one blow.
This special way of communication requires a good bond, that is, the intermediary often runs between the two forces, and this old man named Gu Yuexuan is the intermediary between us and the seven major factions.
To be able to become a liaison in this kind of force not only requires a very high status, but also the trust of both forces in him, which casts a veil of mystery over the identity of the old man.
Of course, my father would explain these things to me very quickly.
"The position of the seven major factions located south of the Yangtze River has fallen, this time the casualties are very heavy, the vanguard troops led by the Emei faction Hongyun Shitai have suffered the greatest losses, last night, the seven major factions, including their ancient martial arts families and small sects, all retreated to the area north of the Yangtze River, which has become the territory under the jurisdiction of the Dark Temple!" the old man said in a heavy tone.
"What, the southern region has fallen, this speed is too fast, with the background of the seven major factions, how can they be defeated like this without the power to fight back?" Uncle Jing said in disbelief.
The war of martial arts is different from military operations in the ordinary sense, in order not to affect the social order as little as possible, the battlefield will be selected in extremely remote, inaccessible places, at the same time, the real sword and gun duel is only one aspect, there are also political and economic struggles.
The so-called fall refers to the fact that the base camp of the seven major factions has not only been uprooted, but also the foundation in the business world and politics has been given a pot by the other party, which is a complete failure.
"Internal and external troubles, the alliance of the seven major factions is not impregnable after all, everyone is united on the surface, but in fact they all want to become the hegemony of the martial arts, in addition, the spies of the dark temple are installed in each door, and all the latent crises at the critical moment break out together, plus this time the dark temple is menacing, almost most of the forces have been dispatched, the battle line of the seven major factions is too big, and failure is inevitable. Gu Yuexuan sighed.
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and a defeat is not necessarily a bad thing, the seven major factions retreat to the north of the Yangtze River, and it is also a good choice to be able to completely concentrate their forces on one point, since our Dragon Dream dares to put up a big banner at this time, it will definitely not stand idly by, but the real purpose of the dark temple to launch this war, is the ancient investigation clear?" My father asked, his expression was atmospheric and calm, he had experienced more things than ordinary people, he knew how to make trade-offs, knew how to advance and retreat, and had the majesty of a king.
"Lin Fei, you and Liu Mang are both dragons among the people of Huaxia martial arts, your conduct and style have been recognized by me, there are some things, I don't want to hide some things, maybe you also have some understanding of the dark temple's plan to punish the sky, I will let you understand it thoroughly on this basis!" Gu Gu sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, and leisurely explained the secret.
In fact, the dark temple launched a conspiracy as early as twenty years ago, and its purpose was not to occupy Huaxia martial arts, but to take a fancy to several places in Huaxia martial arts, the five forbidden places.
According to the ancient Bible, the Buddhist Proverbs of Shakyamuni and the prophecies of the vanished Mayans recorded that the world would one day be destroyed.
Once, the prophecy of the destruction of the world in 2012 was highly concerned by various countries, and in that year, although there was no end of the world, there were rare natural disasters in various countries, and the losses were extremely heavy.
According to the ancient saying, those natural disasters are not caused by natural phenomena, but by man-made.
"Man-made natural disasters? How is this possible, I think this old man must have never gone to school, he doesn't understand basic common sense, he is confused!" said Mangdi disdainfully.
"What he said may be true, let's hear it first!" I gagged him.
"Man-made natural disasters are not alarmist, because, it is the dark temple that opened several forbidden places hidden in this world, and the opening of forbidden places can awaken a certain force that has been silent in this world for many years, and when all the forbidden places are opened, Maya, The prophecies of the Bible and Buddhism will be fully fulfilled, and at that time, it may not be the end of the world, nor will it be a peaceful and prosperous world, but it will definitely turn the world upside down, and mankind may lose the track of its original life and move towards another era, and according to my speculation, the new era is more likely to be the end of mankind!" said the ancient, his expression awe-inspiring and his words extremely sharp.
The four of us juniors were still suspicious on the side, but my master, father, Liu Jing, and Uncle Zifeng looked solemn, and it seemed that there was no doubt about his words.
"As far as I know, the Dark Temple has occupied some forbidden places abroad over the years, and the few remaining places have not yet fallen into their hands, and they are also in danger, the five forbidden places in Huaxia can be said to be the last line of defense, they are fake against the entire martial arts, the real purpose is not to let us disturb the process of uncovering secrets, the action of the person behind the dark temple is an anti-social, anti-human earth-shattering conspiracy, so we must prevent them from achieving the conspiracy!"
"The five forbidden places, sure enough, are not much different from what I guessed, Brother Mang and I have explored the secret cave of the sealed door, the entrance to the Paradise Yao Pool in Zhongnan Mountain was also destroyed by me in the battle twenty years ago, in addition, there is also the hanging platform on the top of Zixiao Peak in Wudang Mountain and the Biluo Stream in the Jade Girl Peak of the Emei Sect, but where is the fifth forbidden land, I have never heard of it!" my father asked.
"The fifth place, it is true that few people know, because the forbidden place is not underground, but in the sky, of course, compared to the other four places that are well known, I am afraid that the people of the dark temple do not know about it, but the five forbidden places are inextricably linked with each other, if the dark temple can occupy these four places, it may not be difficult to know the last forbidden place, so, in the future, the purpose of the seven major factions and your dragon dream is very clear, that is, to prevent the dark temple from digging the secret of the forbidden land, as far as I know, the five forbidden places will all be opened every hundred years, and next year's Zhongyuan Festival is the day when the forbidden land is opened, and only after this period of timeThe plan of the Dark Temple will fail, and if you want to start a catastrophe, you will have to wait another hundred years, and by then, we will all be buried in the ground forever, and those things will have nothing to do with us!" said the ancient.
His statement is very clear, our exchange of fire with the Dark Temple is not to exterminate the other party, but to protect the five forbidden places of Huaxia, as long as their so-called operation to punish the heavens fails, then all the situation will be completely changed.
Hearing this, I stepped forward and asked, "Since the ancient fables say that the forbidden land is opened, it is more likely to be the end of the world, so why do the masterminds behind the dark temple still launch this, and what good is it for them?"
Gu slowly turned his head, looked at me with an unfathomable smile on his face, and said: "What if the mastermind of the dark temple is not a human, but a creature beyond us humans?
