Chapter 125: Mrs. Xiao
There is the whereabouts of the demon lord's relics in the Buddhist scriptures, although Lu Xin doesn't know what it is. But Master Xuanhong is Xuanzang's senior brother, and Li Shimin personally invited the host from the Pure Land Temple. Even what he has to swear to protect must be very important. But this is a matter for the imperial court, and now he is not yet the time to get involved. Therefore, it is most appropriate to hand it over to Wei Zheng for processing.
After going out of the far gate, Lu Xin went straight to Longshouyuan in the north. When he was still in the Wei Mansion, Lu Xin received a talisman from Li Chunfeng and asked him to meet him in the Dragon Shouyuan. The master and apprentice duo practiced on the Dragon Shouyuan for a few days before the Chang'an killing. Now that the killing and robbery have passed, I returned to Longshouyuan to meet, but it is also in line with the artistic conception of having a beginning and an end.
"I remember that Lu Tingfang seems to have said that in order to build a summer palace for the Emperor Li Yuan, Li Shimin will build a large number of buildings on Longshou Plain, which was originally called Yong'an Palace. After Gaozong ascended the throne, he expanded with the power of the whole country, and was known as Daming Palace in history. So far, this originally uninhabited land has become the political center of the entire Tang Dynasty. However, after Wu Zetian became emperor, he soon moved the capital to Luoyang. These emperors can really make a fuss. ”
In the process of mountaineering, Lu Xin's mind remembered some things he heard when he studied history with Lu Tingfang. Daming Palace, as the second imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty, has an important historical position. The ancients built a house, whether it was a yin house or a yang house, and even ordinary people would try their best to find a feng shui treasure, let alone the royal family. During the Gaozong period, the Daming Palace was built with the status of the main hall of the imperial palace. As the foundation of a royal palace, the dragon head is important. But from Lu Xin's current point of view, the feng shui of Longshouyuan is really not very good.
By the time we reached the summit, it was almost time. The scientific expedition of Qunxian Fang is still in full swing. Li Chunfeng was still sitting on the edge of the cliff, looking at the whole of Chang'an.
"Master, what happened at the last minute of last night? Master, why didn't you come back all night? ”
As soon as he saw Li Chunfeng, Lu Xin asked two questions in a row. Regarding the last moment of the killing, all Lu Xin's memories are vague. The moment Taiyin Yin Yin came into the world, he lost all consciousness. By the time it was restored, everything had settled again.
"Someone has a foreign demon weapon that has attracted the innate Yin Qi in the veins of the Fengdu Ghost Domain. He also cast spells in secret, evolving the Taiyin and Gloom, wanting to use this to bewitch the Tang King. But in the end, he was stopped by the Master and the Immortal Immortal Sect. ”
"Alien magic weapons? Too gloomy? Also, who is the Immortal Immortal Sect? ”
Li Chunfeng's answer not only did not solve Lu Xin's problem, but made him even more confused. There were a few of them that he hadn't even heard of. Especially the last Immortal Immortal Sect was not among the five strongest sects. However, to be mentioned by Li Chunfeng at this time, at least they are all cultivators in the divine realm. But among the major sects on the rivers and lakes, only one has an ambiguous relationship with the imperial court. The rest, if not hostile relations, are neutral.
When Li Chunfeng heard this, he did not answer immediately, but beckoned and motioned for Lu Xin to sit down next to him. Looking at it again at this time, Li Chunfeng's complexion was very poor, and the aura on his body was also very weak. The whole person gave Lu Xin the feeling that he was like a sick man who couldn't help but be weak.
"The so-called Taiyin and Shadow are the legendary primeval holy beasts. Or, one of the incarnations of heaven and earth. In short, this thing is not a good existence. It is said that when chaos first opened, Pangushe's physical body evolved all things in heaven and earth. Among them, the left eye turned into the essence of the Taiyin and combined with the Qi of the Yin in the leyline, giving birth to a holy beast that specializes in eating evil thoughts. All things in heaven and earth, all those who have spirits, have evil thoughts. Evil thoughts are not extinguished, and the shadow is not dead. In fact, no one has ever seen this thing. What I dealt with for the teacher last night was just a magic weapon hidden in the depths of the thunderclouds. ”
"Just a magic weapon? Do you want so many masters to deal with it together? And you, master, were seriously injured. ”
Lu Xin was a little shocked, what kind of magic weapon does it take to deal with several great onmyoji in the Divine Realm? Moreover, Li Chunfeng was also injured. This so-called "foreign magic weapon" is inevitably too powerful, right?
"The mana is consumed too much, and it hurts some vitality, just cultivate for a few days. As for this foreign magic weapon, who brought it into Chang'an, it is still difficult to make a conclusion. The Cult of the Immortal Cactus is suspected to be a Persian state, or a Byzantine artifact. However, the envoys of both countries were killed a few days ago, and there is no evidence of their death. ”
"Immortal Immortal Sect...... According to what the master said, this sect leader, could it be Tan Zongxiao, the secretary of the Yin Yang Temple? ”
"That's the man." Li Chunfeng nodded, and there was a little more approval in his tone. "I only found out about being a teacher last night. The Immortal Immortal Sect is a new sect that has only appeared in the past ten years. It's very mysterious, and it's also very low-key, almost never interfering in anything in the immortal world and the imperial court. Originally, I thought that Tan Zongxiao was just a casual cultivator. But looking at it now, the Immortal Immortal Sect is the real Yin-Yang Temple. The Imperial Temple and the Demon Suppression Courtyard are only a small part of this sect. The imperial court, I'm afraid there is a big plan. ”
"I see, this is too terrible. On the surface, the imperial court forbade the common people to cultivate immortals and practice the Tao, and wanted to suppress the world's sects. But secretly, he made another sect. Immortal Immortal Sect, immortality is immortal...... What a big breath. Li Shimin, can he tolerate such a title? ”
"That's the crux of the matter. The Immortal Immortal Sect appeared more than ten years ago, and Li Shimin at that time was only the King of Qin. There is the crown prince Li Jiancheng, there are civil and military officials, and there is a Qi king Li Yuanji in the middle. If it is said who can inherit the throne, it is naturally the crown prince who takes the lead. If nothing else, it would not have been his turn. ”
"What does the master mean ......"
Hearing this, Lu Xin was shocked and stood up suddenly. Although Li Chunfeng said it lightly, anyone who understood the meaning would probably be frightened.
Ten years ago, King Qin, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, the throne, immortal immortal sect...... Linking these terms together makes people think about it very scary. For the people of the world, it is not clear what happened to the Xuanwumen Incident three years ago, and how many people and forces were involved. And in all dynasties, the power of the crown prince is the strongest. Li Shimin is indeed a great military achievement and has an excellent reputation, but it is not enough for Li Yuan to abolish Li Jiancheng and change his title to the crown prince. If you want to take the throne, you will have to mutiny. But this requires huge strength, otherwise, it will not be enough to defeat the two major forces of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji at the same time. And in this era with an onmyoji, it is obviously not enough to have soldiers.
"Well, these are just speculations for the teacher. As for the truth, sooner or later it will come out, but not now, it is useless to think about it. I called you here because I wanted you to do something for your teacher. ”
"Master, please speak."
"For the teacher's injury, you need a fairy grass to heal. Chang'an is the imperial capital, mixed with fish and dragons, and the sea is inclusive. What is in heaven and earth should be bought. You go and find a plant for the teacher, this bottle of elixir should be enough. ”
Li Chunfeng handed a jade bottle into Lu Xin's hands and instructed him to be careful not to leak the news. Lu Xin naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, nodded again and again, and quickly went down to Longshouyuan.
Li Chunfeng's injury, although he himself said it very lightly. But Lu Xin is not a fool, just looking at his master's complexion, he knows that he should be seriously injured, even to the point where he can't move. When he cultivated to the realm of Li Chunfeng, he would generally never be injured. A master who can fight with the Onmyoji of the God Realm without falling behind, between heaven and earth, there are not many forces that can hurt him. But such people, once injured, are extremely serious.
"Ambergris...... Listening to the master's tone, this thing should be regarded as a natural treasure. Something that can be used by the Onmyoji to heal wounds will definitely not be available in ordinary places. ”
It's been six minutes since I returned to Chang'an. The sun was in the sky, and it was very hot. Lu Xin didn't know where to go to buy the ambergris grass that Li Chunfeng needed, so he decided to go back to Qianfu first and ask Qian Xiaoyue.
Entering the city from the Golden Light Gate, it is the Qunxian Fang. And Huaiyuanfang, where the Qian Mansion is located, is on the other side of the West Market. While passing by the West Market, Lu Xin suddenly stopped, ready to walk around. Chang'an is a gathering place for goods from all over the world, and the West Market is the largest trade market in Chang'an City. Perhaps, the whereabouts of ambergris can be found. After all, what Li Chunfeng meant was to let him do this alone. The less people know, the better.
On the night he first entered Chang'an, Lu Xin walked around the West Market. But it was night, and the lights were on, and what I saw was very different from the daytime. Coupled with the sudden fire, Lu Xin actually didn't really know about the West Market. At this time, with the purpose of the street, I felt the prosperity of the West Market.
Here, there are not only goods from all over the country, but also goods from the countries of the Western Regions and even from the European continent. Most of the people who operate these transactions are some powerful forces, families, or sects, and even some industries are government-run and controlled by the imperial court. In fact, there are very few small personal transactions.
Lu Xin wandered around the West Market for more than half an hour before he found an area dedicated to buying and selling herbs. The area is not large, but there are two streets in front and back, hundreds of shops and stalls. And the streets are very crowded and very chaotic. Lu Xin soon entered several stores, but none of them had the whereabouts of ambergris, and even a few shopkeepers had never even heard of the name of ambergris. This made Lu Xin a little disappointed.
But just as he left the fifth shop, a young man dressed as a gangster suddenly jumped out of the street.
"This boy is in a hurry, he must be in trouble, right? To tell you the truth, there are no good things in these small shops. If you're looking for some life-saving herbs, you've got to find the right place. ”
