Chapter 190: Borrowing from Heaven for Another 500 Years?
On the Xian Xian Tai, the long lights inside and outside the hall are endless, and the high incense burned by the nine big tripods outside the hall is even more up layers of smoke, lingering on the Xian Xian Tai.
The rich smoke and fog make people really feel a little bit of the Asgard Temple.
"Boom!"
The sound of chimes rang out, and rows of Taoist people in the hall stood up, spilling out charms, burning in the air, and turning into cremation and falling to the ground.
Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty, was supported by people, wearing a white regular clothes, sitting in the front, facing the painting wall of the heavenly palace enshrined in the fireworks, making a pious appearance.
Behind him were the innocent Taoists, the unmonks, and the immortal old men, waiting to follow him.
"How long will it take?" asked Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty, who was a little weak when he spoke.
"The whole process only takes three days. Taizhen Taoist said.
Zhu Cheng instantly became suspicious: "I heard that you didn't use it for three days?"
The monk seemed to have already thought about how to answer, and took over the words of Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty: "Because the king personally borrowed his life from the underworld, we are cautious and cautious in one of the links. ”
"After all, we are honored by the king's high-ranking officials, and we are ordered by the king to understand this painting wall, even if we die, we can be regarded as a well-deserved death. ”
"But the king is different, you are the one who belongs to the destiny of heaven, and you will definitely be the true dragon son of heaven who will rule the world in the future, and all the people in the world will point to your majesty to redefine the mountains and rivers. ”
"Therefore, after trying to perfect the prayer technique of borrowing longevity in the underworld many times, after discussion, the entire prayer technique of borrowing longevity in the underworld was divided into three steps. ”
"On the first night, I prayed for the reincarnation of the underworld, and told the underworld that I wanted to borrow my life, and on the second night, the underworld responded, and we offered sacrifices, and on the third night, the deed was complete, and the king was free from the mortal bones, and the calamities and diseases between heaven and earth could no longer be added to my king's body. ”
Zhu Cheng nodded: "I see." ”
Even the old man, who was a little rigid and stiff in his speech, congratulated Zhu Cheng at this time: "The old monk congratulates the king in advance, and he will be successful in his deeds and dominate the world." ”
Zhu Cheng was happy in his heart, but he didn't show it, but ordered left and right.
"No one is allowed to enter or disturb for three days, and even if the sky falls, it will have to wait until three days later. ”
Zhu Cheng sent his most loyal attendants to lead the Praetorian Guards to guard the high platform, for fear that at this most critical moment, someone would break in and disturb his dream of prolonging his life.
After all, there are still many people who are looking forward to his immediate death, not to mention other countries, even within the Northern Han Dynasty, there are many people waiting for him to die.
In the past few days, there have been people playing for days, persuading him not to believe these strange people, the art of immortality is just a means used by these outsiders to deceive the official mansion, and the whole capital is even more spread a rumor that the king of the Northern Han Dynasty was confused by the evil monks and demons, and misled the country and the people.
Several times in a row, someone set fire to Xian Xiantai and assassinated these strange people, all of which meant that some people did not want to see Zhu Cheng succeed.
Of course, Zhu Cheng didn't trust these Buddhist masters, and at the same time as giving the order, if he didn't come out within three days, or the underworld failed to borrow his life.
The Qilin Army will immediately move to surround the entire Xian Xiantai, and none of these people will be left.
Before Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty, ascended to Xianxiantai, he ordered the crown prince to supervise the country and arrange everything properly.
According to the idea of Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty, with the current strength of the Northern Han Dynasty and the alliance with the Southern Han Dynasty, even if there is any turmoil, what kind of changes can occur in three days.
As long as he waits until he comes out in the third day, solves the problem of lifespan, and masters the power of the Heavenly Palace Painting Wall, there is no pass in this world that can restrain him.
With an order, the door of the entire Xian Xiantai slowly closed, but the sound of chanting inside became louder and louder, and it could be heard from a distance of a mile.
But above the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty, it rained lightly, and every late night, you can see all kinds of strange shadows and mirrors floating in the sky on the Xianxiantai, like a mirage, and as if there are really heavenly immortals descending to the world.
However, on the day of the closure of Xianxiantai, the Southern Han Dynasty, the Chu State, the Shu State, and the Wu Land moved at the same time as if agreed, and divided into several coalition forces to attack the Northern Han.
Qi Yuan, the king of the Southern Han Dynasty, even went out with his nest, leading an army of 80,000 and claiming to be 200,000, and was about to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty in a battle.
The 30,000 iron cavalry led by a tiger general named Li Tianyou took advantage of the defenselessness of the Northern Han Dynasty and attacked and took the important city of the Northern Han Dynasty, Pegasus, overnight.
All of a sudden, Middle-earth was full of turmoil, and the flames of war permeated the entire Northern Han Dynasty.
On the night of the second day after the loss of Pegasus Pass and the invasion of various countries, the Northern Han court received the news.
The entire Northern Han Dynasty was once again in turmoil, and the situation was ten times more severe than the previous attack of the Wu State.
On the third day, the entire Northern Han Dynasty became a pot of porridge, and the prince of the prison state could not suppress the situation at all, and Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty, was still dreaming of immortality on the Xian Xiantai, and in the meditation of the Yellow Court and the smoke, he felt as if he had also ascended the Heavenly Palace, danced with the immortals and goddesses, and swam between the Tianhe and the sea of stars.
Before entering, he ordered no one to disturb him, further making the situation even more uncontrollable.
It wasn't until the fourth day that the light rain and clouds that had shrouded the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty suddenly dissipated.
The clouds open and the sky clears.
On the Xian Xian Terrace, Zhu Cheng, who was sitting on the painting wall, was in a divine light that fell from the sky, and it was visible to the naked eye that his body, which had become obese because of old age, became lean little by little, and the old spots and wrinkles on his body also faded little by little.
What's more, the original sickness was also stripped from his body, and the unhealable wounds and illnesses left behind by the repeated battles were also erased at this moment.
It was as if Heaven was giving him back the years and life that had been taken away from him.
Zhu Cheng went from being sixty or seventy years old to forty or fifty years old.
As the Taizhen Daoist and the Unenlightened said, they really lent Zhu Cheng twenty years of longevity.
When Zhu Cheng, the king of the Northern Han Dynasty, stood up, looked at his body, touched his face, and the whole person laughed.
"The emperors of the past dynasties were faced with life and death, and they could not get it if they knelt down to the sky and wanted to live for a few more years, but this king not only had to live for 20 more years, but also borrowed another 500 years from the sky. ”
Zhu Chengzhi was full of pride, feeling that his ambition was pouring out again, and at this time, the door of Xian Xiantai opened, and the ministers and princes who were waiting outside immediately poured out.
As soon as the young prince came in, he knelt down in front of Zhu Cheng and cried: "Father, the Southern Han Dynasty, Chu State, Shu State, and Wu Di four road armies have invaded our territory, and Qi Yuan, the king of the Southern Han Dynasty, has led his troops to personally recruit and lead 200,000 troops into the country, and has now taken Pegasus Pass and the entire Donglu County. ”
"Chu and Shu sent 60,000 troops to attack our southwest, and Jiedu made Yang Fan and Zhou Xing rebel, and Wu Hou fled the night before yesterday, and then Wu all rebelled. ”
"They are going to kill my Northern Han!"
The smile and smugness on Zhu Cheng's face came to an abrupt end in an instant.
