Chapter 1: Theft of Runes (2)

Everyone looked to the place where the voice came from, and the speaker was an old monk in red and yellow Gaza, and everyone present knew this person as Master Huigen, the head of the Wuxiang faction.

Quan Ming Dao bowed and replied: "Thank you Master for reminding me that the poor Dao had blocked the scriptures on the Shennong Ding yesterday, and now I can only see the appearance of the Shennong Ding, feel the aura emanating from the Ding, and can't see the mantra." ”

Master Huigen folded his hands and saluted back: "It's the old man who is too worried, don't blame Brother Dao!" ”

"Where, where, I am afraid that there is no way to learn the scriptures, and the master is also benevolent and kind." Daoist Quan Ming said.

Standing at the back of the main hall, a boy wearing a red coat and yellow lining, leaned forward and whispered to the people in front of him: "Master, this old way is really a fan of money, we came all the way to congratulate him, but he didn't let us look at the mantra on Shen Nongding." ”

I only heard the red-clothed rune master in his forties, medium stature, and bright eyes reprimanded him: "Don't talk nonsense, this Shennong Ding is one of the top ten artifacts of ancient times, it is said that it is the artifact of Shennong's clan to taste herbs and refine herbs, and there are scriptures of yin and yang runes engraved around it. Generally, if the rune master sees the mantra of Dingshang and practices it blindly, he will go mad at best, and he will be killed on the spot. Besides, the mantra on the Ding is the secret book of Tai Chi teaching, how can it be shown to people casually? ”

The young boy said, "The master has taught you a great lesson! ”

Although these two people spoke quietly, they were still heard clearly by the Taiqing Daoist, and when he looked back, he recognized that the eldest of the two were Zhu Wuru, the head of the Vermilion Bird Society, and Wei Tengyang, the eldest apprentice. I thought to myself: "It's still his master who knows the goods and knows the origin and extraordinaryness of the treasures of this sect." ”

At this moment, two people had already carried a wooden box in and placed it on the altar in front of the three stone statues.

Daoist Quan Ming opened the box and took out a square object covered with black cloth, and judging from the shape and size, under the cloth was Shennong Ding.

Wei Tengyang, who was standing in the last row, couldn't stop asking, "Master, what is this Shennong Ding for?" ”

Zhu Wuru whispered: "The ancient artifact, it is the first time I have seen it as a teacher, I only know that this artifact can easily refine the best runes into a rare level, or even a Tianzun level, and what other wonderful uses there are, I don't know if I am a teacher." ”

Wei Tengyang sighed and said, "It took me three years to practice using ordinary runes, and rare runes are too far away for me. ”

Zhu Wu, the head of the Vermilion Bird Society, smiled bitterly: "The gap between our Five Elements Battle Alliance and these century-old sects is not a day or two, a little or two. ”

When the Taiqing Daoist heard this, he smiled and said nothing, thinking: "A few years ago, the rune masters of the five major systems of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth have set up their own portals, and have established five sects: White Tiger, Qinglong, Xuanwu, Vermilion Bird, and Huanglong. These five sects also held each other together to form the 'Five Elements Battle Alliance', which had a huge momentum in the rivers and lakes, and became a force to be reckoned with against the southwest evil sect and the northern alien rune masters, so this sect invited them to go up the mountain in the centennial ceremony. However, these new sects still lack the foundation, lack people of insight, and are completely unable to understand the mystery of the ancient artifact. ”

At this moment, under the three stone statues, the long robe of Quanming Dao waved, the black cloth slowly rose, and a four-cornered bronze tripod was revealed, and the hall was full of exclamations in an instant.

Looking at Zunding again, although the surroundings are wrapped in white cloth, people can still feel a refreshing power coming out of the ding. Black and white bright fairy qi emerges from the tripod, gathering on the tripod, and the black and white are clearly rotating like Taiji. After a while, the two streams of black and white gas had already transformed into two dragons chasing each other on the ding.

Quan Ming Dao Chang said to everyone: "This is the sacred relic of this sect, Shennong Ding, friends of the senior rune master and above here, you can come around the tripod to take a closer look, and you can also slowly inhale the immortal qi in the tripod, which has the effect of prolonging life and enhancing internal strength." Friends below the intermediate rune master level should also stay away from this tripod, lest the internal force crystal be unable to resist the yin and yang qi emitted from the tripod, and be injured. ”

Master Huigen clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." After finishing speaking, he was the first to walk on the stage, followed by less than ten people, and it seemed that there were not many high-level rune masters.

At this moment, a middle-aged Taoist priest ran from outside the hall, looking panicked, and said a few words in the ear of an old Taoist wearing a Tai Chi Taoist uniform. Lao Dao's face changed suddenly, and he immediately walked to Quan Ming Dao Elder and said a few words in his ear.

Daoist Quan Ming was slightly shocked when he heard this, and asked softly, "Is this really the case?" ”

Lao Dao said: "It was said by the disciple who delivered food to the junior disciple who guarded the Tibetan scripture cave, and it should be true." ”

Daoist Quan Ming said: "This matter cannot be done. Today is a big day for my teaching, and I can only entertain guests here. Senior Brother Quanxu, you and Senior Brother Quanfa should go and check it out. ”

At the same time, in the Tibetan scripture cave in the mountain behind the Liangyi Temple, the three of them stood in a three-legged posture in night clothes.

The three of them released blue internal force, yellow physical strength, and red life three-color crystals respectively, obviously to prepare for a vicious fight, but no one dared to make the first move, for fear that they would be attacked by the other two at the same time as soon as they moved.

After standing for about a cup of tea, one of them lowered his voice and said, "Both, we are here for the same purpose, why don't we put away the crystals together, don't interfere with each other, and take what we need?" If you continue to consume it, it will be in vain. ”

The other two looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

So the three of them retreated, retreated to the wall, put away the crystal, and immediately took out a pen and paper and began to copy the scriptures engraved on the opposite cave wall.

The three of them looked at the scriptures on the opposite wall of the cave and copied them quickly, and each of them copied a third of the scriptures in the cave. At that moment, there was a figure of a person walking outside the cave, and the three of them extinguished the nearby torches at the same time, and then disappeared into the darkness.

The fire in the cave rose again, and those who came in were the two Dao Masters of Quan Xu and Quan Fa, as well as several disciples such as Taizhong and Taiqing. Daoist Quan Xu took a torch and inspected it in the cave and said to Quan Fa: "Senior brother, the people who sneaked in from the footprints are not one, but three. ”

The Quan Dharma Daoist said, "That's right, senior brother, but I don't know why these people are standing with their backs against the cave wall, don't they know that the scriptures are engraved on the cave wall?" ”

Daoist Quan Xu stood on one of the footprints, looked up and saw that about one-third of the scriptures in the cave appeared in front of him, and immediately said, "I understand, you guard here, and I will report back to the senior brother in charge." ”

Daoist Quan Xu returned to the Sanqing Palace, and Daoist Quan Ming had already put away Shennong Ding.

Daoist Quan Xu said in Daoist Quan Ming's ear: "Senior Brother Chief, I have checked, and three people have infiltrated the main cave of the Tibetan Scripture Cave. ”

Daoist Quan Ming asked, "What about the other caves?" ”

Quan Xu said: "There is no trace of being broken into. ”

Daoist Quan Ming raised his head and thought for a while and said, "Only the 'Yellow Emperor Yin Rune Sutra' is not a big problem if someone steals it, and without the assistance of the 'Yellow Emperor Yang Rune Sutra', those who practice without permission can only reap the consequences." Let this not be publicized, let the thieves of the scriptures go! ”

Daoist Quan Xu shook his head and said, "They are doing their own evil." ”
