Text_Chapter 498 The door of the heavenly court is opened
On the winter solstice of this year, Zhu Youxiao and his courtiers were sacrificing to the sky, and after walking according to the usual procedure, he was about to leave, when suddenly, Zhang Xianyong, the high priest who presided over the sacrifice, stopped him.
"Your Majesty, please stay." Zhang Xianyong called the emperor with a mysterious face.
"High priest, what's the matter?" Zhu Youxiao asked strangely, he has sacrificed to the heavens here so many times, this Zhang Xianyong has never said a word to him, and today for some reason, he actually stopped him.
"Your Majesty will follow the old minister over and take a look." Zhang Xianyong said with a smile that couldn't be hidden.
"Well, I'll go with you and see what the hell you're up to." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile, and as he spoke, he walked with different steps.
"Wait, only Your Majesty can go alone, and the others are waiting outside." Just suddenly, Zhang Xianyong put his hand in the column and said.
"What, old man, do you seem to be plotting to murder Your Majesty?" Before Zhu Youxiao could speak, the clam thorn, who was the commander of the Praetorian Guard, was furious.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty can really only enter alone, but he cares about the great secrets of heaven and earth." Zhang Xianyong hurriedly explained that if he was given a hat for murdering the emperor, he would lose his skin if he didn't die.
"Clam thorn mold, you wait here, I will come when I go." Hearing that it was the great secret of heaven and earth, Zhu Youxiao immediately understood, and then ordered the guards to wait here, and he followed Zhang Xianyong to walk inside, where was a Taoist temple, which was the headquarters of the Heavenly Emperor Temple.
"Your Majesty....... Yes, Your Majesty." The clam thorn mold reluctantly stayed.
Soon, the two came to the Taoist temple, this Taoist temple is simple and quiet, and not big, but it gives people a mysterious mysterious, thick and vicissitudes of life, which is a little strange, you must know that this Taoist temple has only been built for four or five years, how can it be like it has gone through countless years of baptism.
"Your Majesty, please come in." Coming to the door, Zhang Xianyong said with a smile.
"Whew!" Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath, and then slowly pushed open the door.
"Crunch."
The wooden door opened, appeared in front of Zhu Youxiao is a large hall, a statue of a god enshrined in the hall, look carefully, this statue and Zhu Youxiao's face is almost identical, this is the most popular in the Ming Dynasty today, the Emperor of Heaven is dedicated to the gods, Haotian God, and in a series of propaganda and legends, Haotian God has become one with His Majesty today.
This idol is the embodiment of this.
Under the statue of the god, there is an incense burner, the incense burner is placed on the offering table, is wafting green smoke, under the incense burner, there is a priest meditating cross-legged, the overall atmosphere seems to be quite subtle and mysterious.
However, none of this attracted Zhu Youxiao's attention, and his eyes were all attracted by the right hand of the thing held by the idol.
On it, there is a seal carved from a beautiful jade, a corner of the seal is missing, inlaid with gold, and the most surprising thing is that this jade seal is slightly exuding light.
The transparent sunlight shone in through the glass tiles of the roof and hit the statue, making the statue shine, but such a bright daylight could not hide the brilliance of the jade seal, which was very wonderful.
"Your Majesty is here!" The cross-legged Taoist stood up to greet him, and when he took a closer look, it was Ling Wang Changyue, the sect in charge of the world's religion.
"It turns out that the Zongren Order is also there." After a pleasant greeting, Zhu Youxiao asked directly, "What's going on?" ”
"Your Majesty will know everything when you put your hand on the jade seal." Wang Changyue didn't answer, but smiled slightly.
"That's fine." Zhu Youxiao's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed something, but his face was a little incredulous, so he just walked over and put his hand on the jade seal.
Call!
Almost in the blink of an eye, Zhu Youxiao found that the environment around him had changed, and he came to a gate, which was very huge, and the plaque on it was very high.
This is the place where the legendary Heavenly Court enters and exits, the South Heavenly Gate. It's just that now this gate has a lot of mottled colors, and it looks unusually old and old.
"It seems that what Zhang Xianyong said has finally come true, and he has finally communicated with this legendary heavenly court." Zhu Youxiao was excited to see it, and he was walking in the desire.
"Your Majesty, wait, this is not the time for Your Majesty to stay in Heavenly Court." Suddenly, two people flashed out from behind the doorpost and spoke out to stop Zhu Youxiao's move.
"Who are you?" Zhu Youxiao paused, looking at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of him, his face was full of vigilance, but for some reason, looking at these two people, he had a familiar feeling.
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten, I am an iron pillar, and he is a second dog." One of them smiled and introduced his identity.
Saying this, the familiarity in Zhu Youxiao's heart became even heavier, and then he patted his head and matched the person in front of him with his memory, "It turned out to be you." ”
These two people were also one of the original eight hundred feather forests, and they were Zhu Youxiao's henchmen, but they had already died in battle, and they didn't know why they appeared here.
However, this is the legendary Heavenly Court, and it is not an exaggeration for two dead people to appear, Zhu Youxiao just looked at them calmly, and asked quite strangely, "Why did you appear here." ”
"Your Majesty, we don't know what is going on, but when we wake up after death, we see that we are here, and our duty is to guard here." The two of them were also very excited when they saw that the emperor recognized them, and they couldn't help but explain. "But then we stayed for a long time and learned something."
"Your Majesty, this is the Heavenly Court, but the Heavenly Court is ruined, and it is a ruin inside, which can only be repaired with the power of Your Majesty's faith, and when the time comes, it will be the time for Your Majesty to enter this place. Your Majesty will first put your hand on this Nantian Gate Post, and everything will be known. ”
When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he didn't hesitate, and put his hand directly on the pillar, he didn't believe that his former subordinates would harm him, and he still had this confidence.
Seeing that the emperor still believed in them, the two were also very happy.
As soon as Zhu Youxiao's hand was pasted on the pillar, a map of the territory of the Ming Dynasty appeared in his mind, on the territory map, there were countless points of light flickering, just at a glance, he understood what it meant, those were the countless Heavenly Emperor views inside the Ming Dynasty.
And on this map, there is a piece missing in the upper left corner, and when he looks at it, he understands that this is the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Western Regions, which he has not yet recovered. The absence of the Western Regions makes the entire territory map feel incomplete.
Just as she was looking around, a sudden rush of information rushed into Zhu Youxiao's mind.
"This is ......." However, Zhu Youxiao did not care about the content of the information, but seized this rare opportunity to break through.
His cultivation has reached the pinnacle of internal training, and now the influx of information is an opportunity for him to break through.
After a long time, Zhu Youxiao opened his eyes, the light in his eyes flashed, and then disappeared, and then the whole person became ordinary and ordinary, but his eyes were as bright as the morning star, faintly, there was a Ming territory flashing in it, which was the artistic conception he comprehended, the emperor map, and it was also his further reliance in the future.
"I understand, you two will wait for you again, and when I return to Heaven, it will be the time when the two of you will achieve positive results." Zhu Youxiao nodded, with the information just now, he understood everything, and he knew what to do.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, we will be loyal to our duties, and the brothers in heaven are waiting for Your Majesty to return and take us to fight again." The two of them bowed excitedly.
"Well, so, I'm gone." After speaking, Zhu Youxiao's entire figure became blurred and disappeared from the South Heavenly Gate. And the two guards also smiled first, and each disappeared behind the Nantian Gate Post.
In the Great Hall of the Heavenly Emperor's View, at this time, Zhu Youxiao's body was standing stiffly, and the whole person was like a dead man, without a sound.
If it weren't for the two of them having tried it, knowing that touching the jade seal was this phenomenon, I am afraid that the two of them would be scared to death by now.
Suddenly, as if the earth was rejuvenated, the breath of vitality suddenly appeared on Zhu Youxiao's body, making him quickly come alive, and then he slowly opened his eyes.
"Your Majesty, how is the situation?" Wang Changyue and Zhang Xianyong asked at the same time, looking extremely nervous.
"Let's talk about what you two saw." Zhu Youxiao didn't say, but asked rhetorically.
It was only when the two of them realized that their actions were a little offensive to the Holy Monarch, and they hurriedly coughed dryly, Wang Changyue said, "After the old road went up, I saw the Nantianmen, and there was nothing else, and I couldn't even go in, so I could only wander around in front of the door, and there was no one." ”
"What about you?" Zhu Youxiao's gaze turned to Zhang Xianyong.
"Your Majesty, Lao Dao sees the same as the Zongren Order, only Nantianmen, and nothing else." Zhang Xianyong also answered the same way.
"So, I understand." Zhu Youxiao nodded slowly, it seems that only he can touch the actual situation.
"Your Majesty." The two old Taoist priests were like puppies, looking at them with blank eyes at the moment, and they really wanted to pry open the mouth in front of them and figure out what they wanted to know from it.
"Haha, there's no need to worry." Zhu Youxiao laughed loudly, and did not say anything, "As soon as the gate of the heavenly court is opened, I am waiting for my vacant position, and when the earthly achievements are completed, it will be the day of my ascension." ”
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, inheriting the merits of the first ancestor of the Emperor, Xuanyuan, and this should be the right result." The two hurriedly congratulated, and then licked their faces and asked, "Your Majesty, what about us?" ”
Looking at their chrysanthemums, but with a flattering look, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't worry, the consummation of the world's achievements is indispensable to the assistance of you, and when it is brought to me to ascend, it is also the day when you wait for the chicken dog to ascend to heaven, rest assured, rest assured." ”
After saying that, he laughed and left, leaving only two old Taoist priests who were so confident that they wept.
"The avenue can be expected, the avenue can be expected!"
This is only a very small time, but it has also been recorded by Julang, after all, it is very rare for the emperor to enter a place alone, and the reason for it has also been speculated by later generations.
In particular, when it was learned that only the Zongren Ling, the High Priest, and Zhu Youxiao had entered the Heavenly Emperor Guan Zongguan in his lifetime, and on the day of the Holy Emperor's death, it was mysteriously burned, and there were countless inquirers.
However, all these secrets are hidden under the ruins, and no one knows.
