"What a big monster, Senior Bai, do you know what these two are?"

On the way up the mountain, two huge monsters lay there, blocking the way.

One of them was pitch black, a coiled snake, spitting its wick at us;

The other is a very large tortoise with a grayish-white body.

It's just that if the giant beast blocks the way, I'm not so surprised, it's really this turtle and snake are too special.

Although the black giant snake is large, it does not have the slightest sense of ferocity, but makes people feel light and sacred at the same time, like a legendary beast.

The gray-white giant tortoise is similar, giving people a heavy and sacred feeling, just like the gods and Buddhas on the statues of gods in the temple.

In the face of this turtle and snake, I actually had an urge to bow and worship, but I forcibly resisted it and asked Bai Chengfeng on the side.

Bai Chengfeng frowned when he saw a turtle and a snake, he didn't have this reaction when Tianyi and Tianji blocked the way before, but his brows quickly relaxed, and he said clearly:

"Interesting, really funny! The previous road was blocked by Tianyi and Tianji, two obsessive guys, and the turtle and snake in front of him should be the handiwork of the great real person in Wudang. ”

"Silly boy, I'll test you, do you know what this turtle and snake are?"

I was stunned for a moment, I didn't know how Bai Chengfeng could ask such a question, it was obvious that they were huge monsters, but I quickly reacted.

"They are huge, a turtle and a snake, one light and the other heavy, and there is no demonic energy on their bodies but a bit of a sacred feeling...... Bai senior, I understand! ”

"This is the realm of martial arts, these two should be the Xuangui Teng Snake, legend has it that the Zhenwu Emperor stepped on the Xuangui Teng Snake to ascend to heaven, and these two divine beasts are the two turtle and snake generals under the emperor's seat."

"The Xuangui Teng Snake is soft and rigid, which is the embodiment of the concept of the Zhenwu Emperor, and the Wudang faction cultivates the way of Zhenwu, and it is not strange for the Xuangui Teng Snake to appear here."

Bai Chengfeng nodded with satisfaction:

"Well, yes, it's already very good for you to know the Xuan Turtle Teng Snake at your age.

But it's not enough to just know, now they're blocking our way, and you'll have to find a way to get them out of the way. ”

After speaking, Bai Chengfeng sat on the side of the road and closed his eyes to recuperate, and handed over the question to me again.

I looked at the turtle snakes, they didn't move, they didn't mean to attack me, they just kept staring at me.

I tried throwing stones, or pushing them, but the turtle snakes were too big to shake them even if I were in an 'inhuman' state, but probably not because of their size.

The Turtle and Snake represent the concept of true martial arts, and this concept will not be shaken no matter what.

I also sat down with Bai Chengfeng, trying to recall the legend of Emperor Zhenwu.

In "Journey to the West", Emperor Zhenwu is also called the Demon Tianzun, who is the existence of ruling the north and sweeping away the demons......

As for the legend of the origin of the turtle and the snake, I recall two.

There is a saying that the Xuangui Teng Snake is one, and they are combined into one to be the Northern Xuanwu, and it just so happens that the Emperor Zhenwu also ruled the north, so Zhenwu is also called Xuanwu, but I think this statement is not very accurate.

There is indeed a legend that Xuanwu is the same as the turtle and snake, but Xuanwu, as the existence of the four holy beasts representing the north, appeared much earlier than the Xuanwu Teng snake, and I have never heard that Xuanwu will differentiate into a turtle and a snake to serve under the account of the Zhenwu Emperor.

Another theory is that Emperor Zhenwu was very hungry in his belly before becoming an immortal, but the immortals did not eat grains, and once they opened their mouths to eat, they would give up their efforts.

Therefore, the Emperor Zhenwu used a knife to cut open the abdomen, cut out all the stomach and intestines and threw them on the ground, and the Emperor Zhenwu soared.

And his stomach and intestines became the Xuangui Teng Snake, which was a disaster in the world, and then the Zhenwu Emperor subdued the Xuangui Teng Snake in the lower realm and made them the second general of the turtle and snake under his seat.

“…… The stomach and intestines represent earthly desires and attachments, and only by leaving these behind can we cultivate the Great Dao, and it does not refer to a certain organ alone.

Therefore, if you want to let the turtle and snake make way, you must be able to let go of it in your heart, at least you must have this awareness. ”

Thinking of this, I put a hand on the snake, tried to adjust my mood, tried to let go of all frivolous and opportunistic thoughts in my heart, and then pushed it to the side, and something magical happened.

The Teng Snake, which was originally as heavy as Mount Tai and could not be shaken even when I entered the 'inhuman' state, suddenly became very light, and was pushed aside by me at once, and then rolled on the ground and turned into a small cauliflower snake, and quickly ran away.

I put my hand on the turtle again, this time thinking of abandoning all attachments and turbidities, and making my mind pure, this time the turtle was also pushed down by me and turned into a small turtle.

I took the little turtle in my hand and exclaimed:

"I see, Da Zhenren's shot is really extraordinary, on the surface, they are two giant beasts, but in fact, they make people think about the concept of Wudang, and test our state of mind."

At this time, Bai Chengfeng also stood up and said with a smile:

"Yes, these Taoist priests always like to do some detours, and they are so troublesome, thanks to you this time, otherwise I may not have passed this hurdle."

There was a certain amount of happiness and helplessness in Bai Chengfeng's tone, and I didn't understand:

"With the knowledge of Senior Bai, I shouldn't be able to see through the test of this turtle and snake, right?"

Bai Chengfeng shook his head and said:

"It's one thing to see through the test, it's another thing to be able to let it go.

You're still shallow in your cultivation now, and you don't have much experience, so you just have to think about it in your heart and let it go, but I'm different......"

Bai Chengfeng didn't explain too much, and soon took me up the mountain again, this time there was no obstacle on the way, and we soon approached the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain and saw the majestic fairy palace.

However, just in front of the Taoist temple, a familiar figure stood there with a sword in his hand—it was the expressionless Baiyun Dao Master.

"Baiyun Dao Chief, why are you here?"

I was a little surprised, Tianyi and Tianji who blocked the way before were all masters of the True Master Realm, and the Great True Man even took action in person as a Heavenly Master.

And although the Baiyun Dao Elder cultivated the way of forgetting his feelings and possessed some of the characteristics of a true master in advance, he still couldn't compare with a real true master.

Even with the help of the Mountain Protection Array, the gap between the Baiyun Dao Leader and Bai Chengfeng is quite huge, and it makes no sense for him to stop here.

However, Bai Chengfeng looked at Baiyun Dao Elder seriously, then drew his sword and sighed:

"I haven't been down the mountain for a long time, I didn't expect Wudang to have such a powerful character, much stronger than the two wastes of Tianyi and Tianji, but he is qualified to fight with me."

After speaking, twelve swords suddenly appeared behind Bai Chengfeng, each sword pointed at the Baiyun Dao Chief, and the Baiyun Dao Leader only pulled out his wooden sword blankly.
