9 Geokinesis
Zhang Jiao's mind was racing. Of course, he didn't know where Wei Boyang hid the scriptures www.biquge.info, and he always regretted acting so hastily, could he have failed here? He led the two of them around the pillars, feeling their vigilant and strong eyes on his back, he quickly adjusted his mentality, no longer thinking about everything that had just happened, he kept observing the situation around him, thinking about how to move the scriptures in his arms to a certain position and find them for the emperor, but so that the shrewd emperor did not have the slightest doubt. The backyard of the Taoist temple is very similar to the layout of the general Taoist temple, with the pillars of the bantan, leaving oblique shadows, intersecting with the shadows of pine trees. The incense wafting from the ding, filtered through the pine leaves, is mixed with the aroma of pine resin. Occasionally, a few Taoists swept the floor in the courtyard, unaware of what was happening outside the Taoist temple. Zhang Jiao didn't want to involve the other Taoists, so he avoided them and walked slowly to a remote place. He had already made up his mind that his goal was an abandoned garden a hundred paces away.
Wei Boyang jumped off the cliff and fell straight down, he protected his face, passed through the dense and towering branches, "plopped", and his whole body was cool. This pool of water is never visible from the cliff. He stayed breathless underwater, knowing that if he moved, the black-clothed master on the cliff would feel his breath. Only through a layer of water can his breath not penetrate, and he wants to create a message of fake death. After staying for half an hour, he surfaced, and there was a dull pain in his ribs. He can't care about so much, this performance of turning the tide is really clever, Zhang Jiao, the scapegoat, should have been slaughtered, and no one knows the secret of the scriptures. He walked aimlessly down the mountain as he pondered the details of the man in black.
He detoured the path to Nantianmen, due to abdominal pain, coupled with the experience of life and death battles that he had never experienced before, Wei Boyang felt a little like a soldier, walking and stopping, he didn't know who the other party was, how many masters were coveted around, the cool breeze in the evening blew, through his sweat-soaked clothes, he couldn't help but shudder.
He came to the Nantianmen, stood still facing south, held his breath, and found that there was no one around, so he closed his eyes, and walked on his feet, and stepped out of the southeast with his left foot, three steps from the southeast, and four steps with his right foot to the southeast; The left foot steps out to the northwest, where there are five steps, and the right foot steps out to the northwest, where there are four steps...... He followed the strange footwork, wandering under the Nantian Gate, gradually approaching a boulder, he vertically up, his hands climbed the branches, his body swinged, and landed steadily on the boulder. He stepped lightly three times, and a stone box burst out from the boulder, he took out a key from it, looked around, smiled, swallowed the key like his stomach, put the stone box back in its place, and stepped on three feet, and the boulder returned to its original appearance.
He let out a long sigh of relief, looked into the distance, it was getting dark very quickly, the sky had turned black and purple, and he was thinking about how to look back and not meet the man in black again, when he suddenly saw a torch lit up under the mountain, and the torch disappeared immediately. Wei Boyang looked at it, and it turned out that the person with the torch had walked into the abandoned temple under the Nantian Gate. Filled with doubts, he decided to go over to see who it was, and as soon as he leaned down, the cry of a baby "Wow Wow" came from the temple. The cry was especially loud in the Tarzan that had gradually quieted down, and a flock of wild birds flew up in the trees at the same time, and echoed in the valley in the distance.
It's the baby in Zhang Jiao's arms! Seeing that he risked death to take the baby with him, he must be famous!
Wei Boyang had a few ups and downs, and he had already arrived at the gate of the temple.
I only heard a voice from insideβ
"What's good? How is it good? How can there be a baby here? He's hungry, and I don't have any milk for him! β
Wei Boyang walked into the temple gently, and a handsome young man in front of him was holding a child in one hand and a torch in the other, brushing the child's face with a turban, trying to make him happy. Wei Boyang coughed lightly, the young man was startled, turned around, and saw that it was a Taoist, his expression was no longer nervous, he bowed slightly, and said, "There is a disturbance to the Dao chief." The younger generation Zhuge Jue wanted to come to Mount Tai to play, but he didn't feel that the time was too late, and he wanted to spend the night here. β
Wei Boyang said: "Haha, it's okay. It has been abandoned for many years, and there are often lost people and climbers who spend the night here. Don't worry, I'm Wei Boyang of Zixiaguan. β
"Could it be Daoist Wei who is famous for his alchemy? Haha, look up for a long time! β
The two sides politely greeted each other, and Wei Boyang said coldly: "It's just, I don't know ...... this kid is?" β
Zhuge Jue said: "When the younger generation came in, he heard a child crying behind the idol, presumably it was the firelight that frightened him, I don't know who was so ruthless and abandoned the child who was born here!" Alas......"
"Why don't you hand over your child to me and become a monk."
Seeing Wei Boyang's expression, Zhuge Jue had already guessed that there must be something strange inside, but before he figured out the situation, he couldn't categorically refuse. Thinking that Gong Chong has been gone for a long time and there is no news, this Wei Boyang is in Zixia Temple, presumably he also knows about Gong Chong's affairs, and in an instant, he has already made up his mind, and said: "This is very good, why don't I go to Guiguan with the Taoist Chief, I will also bother for one night, this place is really a little desolate." β
Wei Boyang didn't expect him to make this move, he didn't want to cause trouble again, besides, Gong Chong was sealed in his body, and one of his ribs was amputated, so he really needed to recuperate, and he couldn't make a dispute with the young man in front of him and make things bigger. He frowned, thought about it, and said with a sad face: "Don't hide it from Zhuge nobles, there is a brother and murderer in Guannei today, I was driven out by him, and I dare not go back!" β
Zhuge Jue was secretly shocked in his heart, thinking that Gong Chong, a reckless man, had really driven the Taoist priest out, and said: "It's okay, the younger generation has a little Taoism, and you can help tame him." β
Wei Boyang was very happy to see him deceived, and said: "Very good, very good, I didn't expect to meet a master!" Please follow me. β
Zhuge Jue picked up the child, handed the torch to Wei Boyang, and the two left the temple and walked towards Zixia Temple.
After Zixia Guan, after passing a desolate path, the four of them came to an abandoned garden. The small doorway is piled with abrupt and craggy strange stones, and the garden gate is hung with a big black lock, and there are some mottled handwriting on the left and right of the doorway.
Gonggong Liu asked angrily, "Is this here?" β
Zhang Jiao didn't say a word, grabbed the chain with both hands, and when the chain was hot and red, his arms exerted force, and he actually tore off the huge chain. He pushed the door in, and with a squeak, thousands of bats flew out of it.
There is a pool of spring water in the garden, and the water is full of fallen leaves, and the water is turquoise, and it is quiet and unmoving.
Behind the pool is a painted Taoist temple, and a skeleton lies under the pillars.
"Father-in-law, I'm afraid!" Liu Hong covered his eyes.
Emperor Huan shouted: "What are you afraid of! Thinking that Emperor Gao killed the White Snake uprising and annihilated Qiang Qin, how could he have the slightest fear? β
As soon as he drank it, Liu Hong's eyes oozed tears, and he bit his lip and couldn't bear to cry.
Gonggong Liu patted him on the back and comforted him.
Zhang Jiao came to the skeleton, he found that something seemed to be flashing inside the rotten clothes, he peeled off the skeleton's clothes, and found that there was a key in the skeleton's belly, a key polished by stone.
Emperor Huan approached and asked, "What is this?" β
Zhang Jiao felt an ominous feeling in his heart, and said, "Maybe it has something to do with the scriptures!" β
Emperor Huan said quietly: "Well, you hide it first!" Where are the scriptures? In the house? β
From the moment he saw this key, Zhang Jiao's heart began to jump in horror, and an inexplicable horror passed through his whole body like an electric current in an instant.
"Let's go in and have a look! Wei Laodao only told me the location, and as I expected, there must be something inside. β
Emperor Huan nodded, stretched out a hand, and made a "please" gesture.
Everyone entered this Taoist temple-like house, and the layout inside was almost the same as that of Zixia Temple, except that everything was a little smaller and a little dilapidated.
In the middle is the statue of Laojun, but this one is carved in stone.
Zhang Jiao said: "I suddenly remembered a legend just now. β
"Oh?" Emperor Huan looked around coldly.
Zhang Jiao continued: "The legend about Zhang Heng. β
"What did you say?!" Emperor Huan came back to his senses.
Zhang Jiao said slowly: "Zhang Heng is the descendant of Wudou Midao, and legend has it that he came to Taishan to cultivate in his later years, but then disappeared for a few months, and then his body was buried in Hanzhong. When I was cultivating, I had heard of Zhang Heng, but I always felt suspicious about his trip to Mount Tai, if I guessed correctly, the skeleton outside the house was Zhang Heng! β
Emperor Huan was shocked and said, "What!?" You say that person is Zhang Heng? β
Zhang Jiao ignored him and continued: "I also have an intuition, if it is really Zhang Heng, the situation will be serious!" I once heard that Zhang Heng was already able to communicate with ghosts and gods when he was cultivating, and the geodynamic instrument he invented was connected with ghosts and gods to predict earthquakes. The eight directions of the ground motion instrument need to be opened with eight keys together before the seismograph can be activated! These eight keys are the eight hexagrams in the eight trigrams, and this stone key is the Gen ......"
"What does that mean?" Emperor Huan seemed to have thought of something, and his tone was a little anxious.
Zhang Jiao said: "Zhang Heng during the cultivation period, in order to avoid being disturbed by others, he locked himself in the seismograph, the eight keys are his collection of the eight elements of all things in the world to refine very successfully, after opening the earth motion instrument, the eight elements of the world penetrate his body, he actually passed the ghosts and gods in that realm." He immediately stopped practicing, fearing that the earth moving instrument would harm the world, so he scattered the eight keys in various places and came to Mount Tai, presumably to hide one here, but he didn't expect to be harmed by someone. According to legend, Yu Ji is one of Zhang Heng's descendants. And Wei Boyang must know this, he must know that this is Zhang Heng, and one of the volumes of the Taiping Qingling Book is where the eight keys are recorded! β
Emperor Huan pondered for a long time and said, "Then what does it have to do with the scriptures?" β
Zhang Jiaodao: If you guess correctly, the rest of the scriptures are hidden in the geodynamic instrument, and the geokinetic instrument is somewhere here!
Zhang Jiao's bold guess surprised even Emperor Huan, he quickly sorted out the clue, and said: "Then the person who killed Zhang Heng must have known the secret of the geokinetic instrument, and snatched one key, and the other, because he swallowed it in his stomach, that person did not find it." According to what you guessed, Taiping Qinglingshu was locked in the geodynamic instrument as early as Zhang Heng's time? But the book was written by Yu Ji! β
Zhang Jiao said coldly: "The one who killed Zhang Heng is Yu Ji!" If you can kill Zhang Heng inadvertently, it must be his cronies. And Zhang Heng's most trusted thing before his death was his closed disciple, that person's surname was Chun Yu, remove a Chun, and change his surname to Yu, this person must be Yu Ji! At that time, Yu Ji was accompanying Zhang Heng and hid the last few volumes of scriptures in the geokinetic instrument, and he was poisoned here! He lied that he had done the Taiping Qing Lingshu and mobilized the world to compete for the collection of the book, while he secretly collected eight keys to collect the fisherman's power. When all the masters in the world are fighting to the death, and the scriptures are almost collected, he can easily get all the scriptures in his hands, and the whereabouts of the eight keys are written on the scriptures outside, Yu Ji estimates that he has collected almost everything, but he didn't expect that there is still one here. β
Emperor Huan wondered: "Then why didn't he come back?" β
Zhang Jiao said: "I thought it was because I hurt my teacher, and I didn't dare to come back, but he left in a hurry, and he didn't even bury his body, so he seemed to be very panicked." β
Emperor Huan pondered and said, "There are several volumes of scriptures that have been transferred to my hands. So, what is Yu Ji going to do when he turns on the ground motion instrument? β
Zhang Jiao said embarrassedly: "Yu Ji has attained the Tao, the earth movement instrument is open, he wants to summon the underworld, in order to-"
"For what?" Emperor Huan asked.
Zhang Jiao knelt down and said, "Seize the holy world!" β
