Chapter XXIII: The Truth of History

The purple gold gourd was held in Tang Xuanchan's hand at this time, and he kept shaking the gourd all the way, making the young merchants inside wail.

In order to let a few people out of the way, he tearfully recounted his unfortunate life.

A 10-year-old young merchant watched his village burned down by humans and his family killed. After that, he and several demon partners embarked on the road of escape. Once again, when they were chased by humans and had no way to escape, Shaoshang and his companions were rescued by a man named Xuantian Shengzun.

But it didn't take long for the good day to happen, and the Xuantian Holy Venerable suddenly died of serious injuries. The Holy Venerable dismissed all the disciples and left only a few of his own demon clans. said that they were afraid of loneliness, so let them be a companion.

At that time, the hearts of Shaoshang and the others were extremely angry, why could human beings leave, and they and others would give you a funeral!

Just when Shaoshang and the others were discussing their escape, the Xuantian Holy Venerable closed the mountain gate and completely trapped Shaoshang and the others in the mountain gate.

There is no worry about eating or drinking in the mountain gate, but it is lonely and boring. Several of Shaoshang's companions just couldn't bear the pain of loneliness and ended their lives.

And Shaoshang lived alone for hundreds of years in such a lonely mountain gate.

Listening to Shaoshang's narration, the six people stepped into the mountain gate. This is a mustard seed space, and the inside is the same as Shaoshang said. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the grass is green and the flowers are fragrant. But the only thing missing here is a hint of life!

When I came to the top of the mustard seed space, there was a Taoist temple with a faint fairy spirit.

Six people walked to the door of the Taoist temple and looked at the plaque on the door with the words 'Xuanshan Temple'. Pushing open the door, a majestic coercion came to the face.

After half a ring, everyone got used to the coercion and looked around.

This Taoist temple is very quaint, and the road paved with blue bricks leads directly to the main hall. On the sides of the main hall, there is an arch on each side, and the gravel paving leads to the backyard.

Li Wujie moved his joints and sighed: "This guy must have been famous during his lifetime, otherwise after being dead for so long, the coercion would have dissipated long ago." ”

Tang Xuancian shook the purple gold gourd, looking cheap and forgetting the pain after the scar, and said: "Whatever, the lights are extinguished when people die." The magic weapon was found by us, which can be regarded as a kind of inheritance. ”

Following Tang Xuanciao's pace, he walked around the lotus pond in the middle and walked to the backyard.

But a moment later, the six of them returned to the front of the main hall again.

"Damn, there's a magic circle." Li Wujie scolded angrily.

Dong Guixu said angrily: "There is no way to come out of the ghost, ask the guy in the gourd." ”

Tang Xuancian shook the gourd violently and asked, "How to go to the magic circle in the backyard?" ”

Shaoshang, who was dizzy, said weakly: "I don't know how to do this, if I could get into the backyard, I would have skinned that old guy and cramped a long time ago." ”

"I don't know what to do?" Tang Xuanciao's eyes widened, and he shook the gourd violently.

The young man inside said: "Don't shake, don't shake." I don't know the way, I really don't know the way. ”

Fu Jinglun stopped: "Okay, don't shake it, it's annoying to listen." This guy really doesn't know what to say, if he could get into the backyard, he would have already skinned the Xuantian Saint Venerable and cramped, and he wouldn't have a stomach full of resentment when he mentioned the other party! ”

Tang Xuancian nodded and said, "I know the way, I just want to shake." ”

The others rolled their eyes and ignored him and walked back to the backyard again.

Soon after, the six returned to the front of the main hall again.

"It's not a way to turn around like this." Li Wujie said impatiently: "Otherwise, let's be hard!" ”

The corners of Zhao Muye's mouth twitched, and he said: "We are not forcibly demolished, a little moral, okay?" ”

"So what do you say?" Li Wujie asked angrily.

Zhao Muye pointed at Dong Guixu and said, "Ask him." ”

At this time, Dong Guixu was drawing something with a pen and paper, and there were a lot of incomprehensible formulas in the blank space.

After half a ring, Dong Guixu took a breath and said, "It's done, let's go!" ”

Several people followed Dong Guixu's footsteps and really walked to the backyard.

The layout of the backyard is simpler, with a blue brick house sandwiched between two rows of green brick houses. The one in the middle doesn't need to think about it, and you know that the Dao is the residence of the Xuantian Holy Venerable.

When I opened the wooden door, I was greeted by a life-sized painting. In the painting, the crane has a childish face, white eyebrows and white beard, dressed in a purple dragon cloud robe, holding a dust whisk, and wearing a purple gold gourd around his wrist. The waist is tied with dragon tendons, and there is a bronze bell hanging on the dragon tendons, and a jasper piccolo is pinned to the right.

Underneath the painting are several futons, a bookshelf on the left and a bookstand on the right, on which are pen, ink, paper and inkstones. Behind the desk is a screen, and behind the screen is a bed.

This room at a glance made Li Wujie and the others a little dumbfounded.

Dong Guixu looked at the ancient books on the shelves and said depressedly: "This is the treasure? It's too sloppy, isn't it? ”

"Say, where do the Xuantian Saint Venerables like to put their magic weapons?" Tang Xuancian always wanted to shake the gourd, but the other people were tired of Shaoshang's wailing and strictly forbade him to shake it. Now, he seized the opportunity.

"I don't know the way, I really don't know the way. In the past, he carried it with him, but then the purple gold gourd was somehow placed on the main hall. And I searched the entire mountain gate, but I didn't find any other magic weapons. "Shaoshang was scared by Tang Xuanchan, and when he asked, he knew everything and said everything.

"Damn, why are you talking in such detail?" Tang Xuancian, who couldn't find an excuse to be mad, shook the gourd again.

Fu Jinglun didn't speak at the door, and kept staring at the paintings on the wall.

"I've seen this painting in government documents, and the documents are annotated with the history of Xuantian Shengzun's life, he was a famous figure 600 years ago. And his personality is upright, open-minded, warm-hearted, anxious for justice and righteousness, and often draws a knife to help when he sees injustice. The person you're talking to doesn't seem to be the same thing, right? Saying that, Fu Jinglun turned his head to look at the gourd.

Shaoshang shouted and scolded in the gourd: "That's for you humans, he is so friendly." But to our demon clan, he treats him like a mustard. I beg you to let me out, I want justice for my dead companion! ”

"He's already dead, is it appropriate to whip the corpse again? I advise you to forget it! Li Wujie held a cigarette in his mouth and said with good words.

Fu Jinglun also lit a cigarette and said softly: "Shaoshang, do you want to hear about the Xuantian Saint Venerable recorded in the document?" ”

Seeing that Shaoshang was silent, Fu Jinglun talked to himself.

600 years ago, it was a dark era, and there was a very famous and notorious villain in that era, his name was Ji Yuanxuan, and he was the commander of the three armies of the Divine Realm Conference army at that time. And the conspiracy brewed by him set off a race war that affected the entire universe.

It wasn't until later, when Ji Yuanxuan inexplicably died in the Commander's Mansion on the main planet of the Divine Realm Conference, that his crimes were told to the world, and the dark and bloody race war came to an end.

And the Xuantian Holy Venerable was the victim of that dark era, and his impatient and righteous character forced him to save several children of the demon clan. It was also this shot that he was branded as a crime against humanity and became a wanted criminal in the Divine Realm Conference.

In a situation where he was surrounded by all the troops, the Xuantian Saint Venerable broke through and was seriously injured. After that, the news came that he had dismissed his children and closed the mountain gate.

"The concept of Xuanshan, which has been inherited for thousands of years, has fallen like this. Shaoshang, do you still hate it? Fu Jinglun asked.

After half a ring, the young merchant in the gourd shouted frantically: "Impossible, impossible." You human beings are all covering each other, why do you want to write him so great. That's not true at all, you hypocritical human beings!! ”

Li Wujie shook his head, out of respect for a Venerable One. He dug out a few fruits in his bag and placed them under the portrait. Since he couldn't find incense, he had to light three cigarettes.

Ignoring Shaoshang's roar, Li Wujie knelt on the futon respectfully, kowtowed three times to the portrait, and said, "Your kind deeds have saved the entire demon clan, may you rest in peace under the Nine Springs." ”

After Li Wujie got up, the other five people also expressed their highest respect for the portrait. Such a person who looks up to the mountains can win people's respect the most.

Just after a few people finished saluting, a fairy aura rose, and a vague figure appeared, which was the Xuantian Holy Venerable in the painting.

The Xuantian Saint Venerable in the immortal qi opened his mouth and said, "The people who can see my extrajudicial incarnation are all with great good thoughts in their hearts. Although I don't know how many days and months have passed, for the sake of the common people in the world, the poor road has one thing to ask for. ”

It turned out that there was something strange about what happened back then, and it was originally the Xuantian Holy Venerable of the Divine Realm Conference. No matter how much he saves a few demon boys, he won't be wanted by the Divine Realm Conference. It's just that there is a page of scripture hidden in the few demon clan teenagers he rescued, and it is this page of scripture that takes the life of Xuantian Holy Venerable.

Ji Yuanxuan is a man with great ambitions, and his ideal is to create a universe with only human beings. Out of nowhere, he found a scripture called 'The Book of Heavenly Returns', which can reshape the universe. Thus, the war that had restored the universe for hundreds of years began, and the Xuantian Holy Venerable was just one of the sacrifices for all the common beings.

Li Wujie and others have also heard of this scripture, and Fu Jinglun still has a page in his hand.

"Before closing the mountain gate, Poor Dao thought about it. Rather than letting them out and being killed, it is better to trap them inside the mountain gate. Although life is a little boring, it will also make them resentful of me, but I can still live. Now I don't know if those hard-working children are still alive. If you are destined to see them, please let them live, and thank you here! ”

"As a thank you gift, Poor Dao had four immortal treasures during his lifetime, namely the Purple Gold Gourd, the Soul Bell, the Shu Immortal Suo and the Treasure Fan Tiandi of the Gate. I put the purple gourd in the main hall, and I guess it was taken by which child. The remaining three magic weapons will be given to you! I hope that when the catastrophe sweeps through the universe again, you will be able to rescue the poor people. Poor Dao only has this last wish, I hope you are destined to forget. Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!! With that, the extralegal incarnation began to slowly disperse, three immortal treasures and several sheep fat jade bottles fell out, and a page of scriptures floated in the air.

Li Wujie stepped forward to catch the scriptures, didn't even look at the immortal treasure on the ground, turned around and handed the scriptures to Fu Jinglun.

Fu Jinglun pondered for a while and said, "Since you got it, you can keep it." Eggs can't be put in one basket! ”

Li Wujie nodded, and after stacking them neatly, he pressed them to the bottom of the weapon box.

Tang Xuanchan was coerced by Liu Futu and Zhao Muye to release Shaoshang.

The young merchant in the gourd obviously also heard the last words of the Xuantian Holy Venerable, and he cried heartbreakingly at this time!

"Master, Master!! It was Shaoshang who killed you!! How can I be so confused, how can I think you want to harm us? I'm damned, I'm damned! Shaoshang kept snorting with his head, and after a while, his forehead was a large red.

Li Wujie and the others didn't know how to persuade Lu Dao, so they lit a cigarette each and waited for Shaoshang to finish venting.

I don't know how long it took, Shaoshang stopped crying. I saw him stand up and turn into a rough middle-aged man.

Walking to the portrait, Shaoshang respectfully rolled up the portrait and was left behind him.

turned around and saluted Li Wujie and the others, and said, "If it weren't for a few young heroes, I wouldn't have been able to know the Tao in my life, and the master has paid so much for us." ”

"So what are you going to do now? Stay in the mountain gate? Li Wujie asked.

Shaoshang shook his head firmly and said: "Now is the time for me to repay my master, the mountain gate is no longer important, wherever I go in the future, it will be the mountain gate of my Xuanshan Temple." I want to reorganize the mountain gate for Master, so that the Xuanshan Temple can be carried forward again. ”

"Okay, since you have this plan, Xianbao should be kept by your side." Li Wujie snatched the gourd from Tang Xuanchan's hand, picked up the immortal treasure on the ground, and stuffed it to Shaoshang.

Shaoshang took the immortal treasure, smiled and said: "I will keep the treasure of this sect, and the other three pieces will be given to you." This is Master's last word, and I must follow it. ”

Li Wujie said with a wry smile: "Don't be, it's better for you to keep it, let's take this treasure hunt trip as a good deed." ”

Li Wujie said it playfully, but Shaoshang was extremely serious. Seeing Li Wujie's refusal, he knelt down without saying a word, held three immortal treasures in front of Li Wujie, and said, "Please accept them." ”
