Chapter 102: The Tower of the Six Realms
The ancestor of the Iron Cloak Gate once left a large number of classics, but these classics are not accessible to ordinary people, and they are all with the four Dharma masters of the Secret Hall, that is to say, where the Dharma is located, these classics are there.
It is almost impossible for others to get close to these texts unless they have been summoned by the Dharma Practitioner, and for hundreds of years, the only person who could see the Dharma was the disciple who was responsible for hiding the secret armor.
When Wei Chi heard this, he asked in confusion, "Master, why don't you hide the secret armor beside the Dharma Practitioner?" Do you want to find someone to hide? ”
Suo Changming explained: "It's actually very simple, just like a war, if you want to defeat the opponent's army, you have to kill the opponent's generals first, the same is true in the rivers and lakes, the Dharma can die, even if the command center is temporarily lost, it is only a short period of chaos, we can choose someone else to replace the Fa, but if the secret armor is lost, it is more difficult to redeem it than to ascend to the sky, so the eggs cannot be put in one basket." ”
However, every person who is chosen to hide the secret armor is also a candidate for the future of the Dharma.
Whether it was in the past or now, in the Iron Cloak Gate, as long as you enter the secret hall and become a Dharma person, then you will not live the life of an ordinary person, and you can freely choose your identity.
Wei Chiran asked: "In other words, is the Dharma Master hidden in the city?" ”
Suo Changming said: "It may also be a little hidden in the wilderness, it depends on personal choice, in short, their task is to command the entire iron-clad gate through special means, and at the same time carry the classics left by the ancestor in batches, if one of them dies, or is about to die, a replacement person will be selected, usually the previous generation of people who hide secret armor, so that they can keep the secret for a long time." ”
Suo Ning nodded and said, "Actually, the Dharma Master lives a fairy-like life on the surface, but in fact he is not free. ”
Suo Changming said: "Of course. ”
Su Li was the person elected by the previous generation to be responsible for hiding the secret armor, so Su Li was able to meet the Dharma of the secret hall in person, of course, he couldn't see all four at once, but went to see them one by one, but in the process, Su Li stole the classics about the Six Realms Tower.
This incident was also after Tieyimen found out that Su Li had drawn drawings to build the Diming Tower, and before that, they didn't find out.
Wei Chiran asked: "The Dharma scholar was carrying a book, but he didn't even find it when it was stolen, didn't he know it?" ”
Suo Changming said: "What I said is wrong, it's not that it's stolen, the classics are not lost, and then we guessed that he took it with a camera, and then integrated modern construction technology to draw architectural drawings about Diming Tower." ”
Wei Chi didn't understand: "Since you have this book, why don't you do it yourself?" Why didn't the Six Realms Tower be built before? ”
Suo Changming said: "This is also the doubt I brought when I accepted the task, the answer given to me by the Dharma Master is that the Six Realms Building is not a random place to repair, it must be repaired in a specific place, and this place, the explanation in the classics is, the land of the dragon, this explanation is very vague, we don't really understand, the literal meaning, it seems that there is a place with demons, but it is not accurate, later, Su Li built the Ming Tower, we realized that maybe he discovered and interpreted the meaning of those four words." ”
Suo Ning asked on the side, "Dad, but why did Su Li do that?" In addition, as the person who hid the secret armor, why did he confess to the outside world that he was Mr. Tingbei of the Iron Cloth Gate? ”
Suo Changming explained: "Some things are more and more black, the more you want to hide, the more you can't hide, especially people in different ways, now this era is different from before, in today's society, you say to people that you are a person in a different way, say words such as iron-clad doors and sewing thousands of corpses, they will only think that you are making up stories and laugh at them, so, the more you hide, the more curious people feel, it is better to say it generously, and Su Li has no other ability, except for building, he will only listen to the fortune telling, but these so-called strange arts, It's just that people in ancient times adopted some statistical and natural methods to integrate, and even modern technology can make mistakes, how can it be guaranteed to be 100% accurate before? ”
After speaking, Suo Changming smiled bitterly again: "So, this thing can only be regarded as a culture until now, and we are only the inheritors of this culture. ”
Suo Changming, as one of the sixteen sons of the Taishan Hall of the Iron Cloth Gate, said such words, which made Wei Chiran feel surprised, but he also felt admiration, indicating that he was not a person who ate the ancients.
Suo Ning said: "Dad, go on." ”
Suo Changming said: "Su Li built the Diming Tower, and after disappearing, when the next generation should take over him, we realized that something was wrong, so we came to the Chinese town to investigate, who knows that Su Li could not be found at all, but found out that Su Li drew drawings to build the Diming Tower before he disappeared, so our attention focused on the Diming Tower, in fact, among the first batch of people who entered the building, someone tried to pass on the information, proving that the Diming Tower is actually the Six Realms Building, at this time we can almost conclude, Su Li must have hidden the secret armor in it. ”
Wei Chiran was still puzzled: "Why are you so sure?" Wouldn't he have hidden his secret armor somewhere else? ”
Suo Changming said: "That starts with Su Li, Su Li's parents are disciples of the Iron Coat, he was not, he is a student of architecture, but he has been gifted since he was a child, especially his ears are very smart, according to popular saying, he is the kind of person with abnormal abilities, and later his father forced him to join the Iron Door, originally he was reluctant, but after contact, he began to become interested in different studies, and even put forward a theory. ”
Suo Ning asked, "What theory?" ”
Suo Changming said: "He thinks that the current alien science may be the ancient science, or even passed down from more ancient times, but because of the development of human social civilization, these originally useful alien studies have become another thing, and they can't play any role in our current world, and he also insists that it is correct to use secret armor for experiments in the iron cloak gate, but he has not chosen a good way......
It was precisely because of Su Li's enthusiasm that Su Li was reused, and it was also an important reason why he was later selected as the secret armor hider.
However, Su Li was very radical, and before he got the secret armor, he proposed various plans, most of which were experiments on human subjects, and in order to keep secrets, he must be the most loyal disciple of the sect, and this alone caused dissatisfaction within the Iron Cloth Gate.
Suo Changming frowned and said: "I said before that the current era is different from before, now there are not so many loyal disciples, most people have their own selfishness in it, and there are indeed many benefits to becoming a disciple, but who is willing to die because of their loyalty?" Everyone knows that as long as anyone wears the secret armor, they will disappear completely, so whether it is Yuanfu Hall or Taishan Hall, some people have proposed to remove Su Li's identity, and even expel him from the Iron Clothes Gate, but the Dharma masters of the secret hall have always disagreed. ”
Why not? Wei Chiran felt puzzled, the people who caused the anger of the people, the four Dharma Masters still had to protect, then there was only one reason, that is, although Su Li was radical, what he did was correct in the eyes of the Dharma Masters of the Secret Hall.
It looks like the secret hall is very eager to enter the border.
When he thought of this, Wei Chi subconsciously looked around again, and said one of his guesses: "What if Su Li didn't die, but hid in after building this building?" ”
Suo Changming agreed: "The secret hall also thinks that there is such a possibility. ”
However, Wei Chiran always felt that something was wrong, but it was just a feeling.
Suo Ning asked at this time: "Dad, what kind of place is the Six Realms Tower?" ”
Suo Changming explained: "According to the classics, the Six Realms Tower is a place where you can go to the border and even the other six worlds without the need for secret armor. ”
Wei Chiran asked: "In other words, as long as the Six Realms Tower is built in the Land of Dragons, you can use the Six Realms Tower as a medium to freely travel between several worlds?" ”
Suo Changming nodded: "It can be understood so." ”
Wei Chi looked out of the door: "So, perhaps, the second building we are in is the boundary?" ”
Suo Changming shook his head: "No one knows what the border looks like, it's not so dark that you can't see anything, right?" Can you still devour the light? However, according to the construction method of the Six Realms Building, this building should actually have nine floors. ”
Wei Chiran and Suo Ning were both stunned, and Suo Ning immediately asked, "Ninth layer?" Why? ”
Suo Changming said: "The number nine has been very mysterious since ancient times, and it is recorded in the classics that the number nine keeps appearing in the formula for calculating the entrances and exits of the six realms and the borders, and we have also asked mathematicians to calculate it, but it has not been solved so far, and it is very complicated. ”
Wei Chiran asked, "Ninth floor?" There are three floors in Diming Building, three floors in Building A, and three floors in Building B. ”
Suo Changming immediately said: "It should be like this, the Dharma Master told me that the nine-story Six Realms Building mentioned in the classics is actually three floors, and among the other six layers, three of the floors lead to the border, and three floors lead to other worlds, but the Dharma Master told me so much, and the other details were not said much, I guess even if I was told it, I couldn't understand it." ”
Wei Chiran was looking at the ground in a daze, the nine floors were divided into three parts, one part was the three-story Earth Ming Tower in the real world, and the other two parts led to the border and other worlds.
Is the world outside the door a border? Could it be that the border is as dark as the legend of the Iron Cloak Gate, the origin world of each world?
But what about the rest of the world? Demon World? The world of immortals? These lieutenants were slow to believe it, but he did believe that maybe it was a world to the past or the future, and only in this way could he explain why Xiang Hua appeared in the past and in the present.
Other than that, it was impossible to find the reason why Xiang Hua prevented them from unraveling the truth.
Now the first task is to find a way to rescue Zhong Fang, Suni and Mika who are in the endless darkness, and then find a way to get out of here.
If everything is safe, Wei Chi Ran will consider looking for the last three floors of the Earth Ming Tower.
