193 Zixia Palace
I only felt a flash of white light in front of my eyes, and when I opened my eyes again, we came to a mountain, to a magnificent mountain gate.
This tall mountain gate, the shape is simple, the gold is brilliant, the two sides of the arch are like the eagle spreading its wings, soaring into the sky, proud of the world. The left and right divine beasts are guarded, the golden dragon holds the plaque on the door, and the four characters are written - Kunlun Shangzong.
Kunlun Shangzong?
West Kunlun?
I suddenly came back to my senses and asked Huo Ling'er beside me, "What kind of place is this?" ”
"The winter moon of the ninth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, West Kunlun, Zixia Palace!" She said.
I was taken aback, "Zixia Palace? Tang dynasty? Did you take me through? ”
She smiled mysteriously, "You guessed it...... How's that, isn't it handsome? ”
I didn't know what to say, so I looked up at the mountain gate, and then at the two of us, they both wore the white robes of the Tang Dynasty and turned into two Taoist priests. The Taoist robes of the Tang Dynasty are not the same thing as the modern Taoist robes, the modern Taoist robes are left over from the Ming Dynasty, and in comparison, it is obvious that the Taoist clothing of the Tang Dynasty is much more chic and elegant. Huo Linger was born extremely beautiful, and after wearing the robe, she looked even more smart and cute, as beautiful as a fairy in the world.
I didn't have time to admire her beauty, so I asked her, "What are you bringing me here for?" Let me come to worship the ancestral court of Zixia Palace? ”
"What ancestral court?" She was puzzled, "I'm bringing you here to meet someone!" ”
"See someone?" I was stunned, "Who?" ”
"You'll know when we meet!" She took my hand and said, "Go!" ”
I gently pushed her away, "Don't, I'll go myself, you lead the way!" ”
She smiled proudly, put her hands behind her back, and swaggered away, "Follow this girl, I won't look for you if you get lost." ”
I smiled helplessly and followed her into the tall mountain gate.
After entering the Zixia Palace, my eyes couldn't help but light up, this is not a Taoist temple at all, this is obviously a palace! Zixia Palace covers an area of about 1,000 acres, built by the mountain, magnificent, and built very spectacularly, I am a little dizzy to see. Follow her all the way inside, from time to time there are male and female Taoist priests coming towards her, Huo Linger smiled and kept greeting them.
Those Taoist priests were very polite and returned the salute one after another.
I asked Huo Ling'er, "Do you know each other?" ”
"I don't know!" She said.
"It's so natural that I don't know you?"
She stopped and looked at me in amazement.
"What?" I met her gaze.
She smiled playfully, "It's nothing, let's go!" ”
I smiled calmly and caught up with her.
This girl walks lightly and agilely, and her speed is extremely fast, but fortunately, I now have more than 1,700 years of cultivation, and before I changed, I really couldn't keep up with her.
We continued on, up the white marble steps, and entered the first hall, the North Pole Hall.
More than 1,000 years ago, the layout of Kunlun Zixia Palace was not the same as that of the later Taoist palace. The modern palace view is to adopt the central axis of the Forbidden City-style three major halls layout, from the entrance to the backyard, basically three halls, the rest of the small halls are distributed on both sides. Zixia Palace is not, it is based on the central axis of the nine halls layout, that is, the central axis on the three halls, at the same time the left and right front sides of each hall, there is also a hall, a total of nine halls, its layout is the trend of hugging the yuan, just like the eagle of the mountain gate spreads its wings, these nine halls are also spread arms, sitting on the Kunlun Sacred Mountain, embracing the world.
The North Pole Hall is the first hall and the smallest one on the central axis, with no statues of gods inside, and is dedicated to seven huge golden silk Tiangang diagrams. The temple was full of incense, but strangely empty. When I followed Huo Ling'er past those Tiangang diagrams, I glanced at them, only to see that on one of the diagrams, it turned out to be all the formations of the Tiangang Twelve Gathering Spirit Arrays.
I hurriedly grabbed Huo Ling'er, "Wait, I'll take a look at this picture!" ”
Huo Linger pulled me, "What's so beautiful?" Rare and weird, I'll see that person later, there's a better one for you! ”
I hesitated for a moment and glanced at the picture, "Okay." ”
She smiled, "Don't worry, can this girl fool you?" Let's go! I smiled calmly and followed her, walking through the North Pole Hall and towards the Kunlun Hall above.
The Kunlun Hall is the second hall on the central axis, larger and more magnificent than the North Pole Palace, which enshrines the Heavenly Realm, the three major deities of the Secret Realm, the Queen Mother of the West, the Kunlun Ancestor and the Twenty-eight Heavenly Immortals of the Heavenly Realm. Among them, the three deities of the Heavenly Realm and the Secret Realm have no gods, only four huge pieces of yellow silk, hanging in the middle of the main hall, the most honorable position.
This is the secret of Zixia Palace, no one has told me, and I don't know how I know it.
Anyway, I just got it.
Huo Ling'er didn't stop, and led me through the Kunlun Palace, and what appeared in front of us was the last and most magnificent hall here, Zixia Palace.
The scale of this hall far exceeds the Arctic Hall and the Kunlun Hall in front, majestic and magnificent, the momentum is like a rainbow, like a heavenly palace.
Huo Ling'er stopped and turned to look at me, "How is it?" Pretty, isn't it? ”
I looked at the magnificent Zixia Palace, couldn't help but swallow my saliva, and nodded, "It's spectacular!" Let's go, let's go in! ”
"Hey...... Wait a minute! She stopped me, "That person isn't here." I was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”
"I said he wasn't here," she said, gesturing to the mountain behind Zixia Palace, "he's in retreat there." ”
"Not here...... So what are you bringing me in for? I asked.
She smiled, "I'll show you around!" What do you think? Enjoyable, right? ”
Speechless, I removed her hand and prepared to enter the temple.
"Hey, why are you going?" She grabbed me.
"Since it's a visit, let me take a good look", I said, "I finally came to the ancestral court once, and I have to go into Zixia Palace and kowtow, right?" ”
"This is your ancestral court? Are you a Kunlun disciple? She asked.
"Yes!"
She shrugged and let go of me, "Then you go, there's nothing in there anyway, see who you kowtow to." ”
I was stunned, "Nothing?" ”
"yes, there's only frescoes in there, nothing else," she said.
I pondered for a moment and walked into the main hall.
When I entered the door, sure enough, there was not a single statue of a god in the empty and tidy hall, but on the wall facing him, there was a whole wall of murals. When I walked to the mural, my eyes couldn't help but light up, and it turned out to be the practice of the Zixia Liuhe Tianluo Realm.
Looking at it, I couldn't help but be fascinated.
Huo Linger walked into the main hall and came to me, "Hey, what is this?" ”
I was taken aback by her, "Why did you get in?" ”
She looked at me, "You can come in, why can't I come in?" ”
I glanced at her and continued to look at the mural, "Can you read it?" ”
She shook her head, "I don't see anything unusual, isn't it just purple Tai Chi, red sun, golden light, snow-capped mountains, white clouds, and enchantments and the like?" What's so strange about that? ”
The corner of my mouth smiled, "Aren't you a disciple of the Hades?" Can't even understand this? "My master didn't teach us this," she muttered, "We use the power of the underworld and the artifacts of the underworld, so we don't need to be so troublesome......"
I glanced at her, shook my head helplessly, and continued to look at the mural.
Soon, she got impatient, walked to the side, and sat down on the ground.
I ignored it and continued to look at myself.
After looking at her for a while, I turned my head to look at her, who was sitting on the floor, her chin propped up, looking at me boredly. I was amused by her cute appearance, "What do you think I'm doing?" ”
"Have you finished reading?" She asked.
"It's coming."
"Then you hurry up and see," she said, "and let's go up the hill after that." ”
"Okay, then you can wait a minute", I said, and continued to look at the mural.
After a while, the last mural was finished, and it was basically the same as what my grandfather taught me. I breathed a sigh of relief, walked up to Huo Ling'er, and smiled at her, "Okay, let's go." ”
She patted her ass and stood up, looked at the murals, "I don't know what's there to see, let's go!" ”
We walked out of the main hall, she took my hand, and instantly left the Zixia Palace and came to the mountain. There is a Tang Dynasty style house here, not big, but very exquisite, surrounded by verdant greenery, clouds and mist, really like a fairyland.
It suddenly felt so familiar, as if I had been there before.
"My friend, it's inside", Huo Linger smiled at me. led me to the outside of the house and hugged my fists, "Mr. Yu, Huo Linger is visiting!" ”
Mr. Yu?
My heart moved, and my heart said, is it ......
A young Taoist priest in his thirties opened the door and came out, smiled at us, and returned the salute with a fist, "Miss Ling'er, you are polite!" ”
Huo Ling'er smiled, and then introduced me to him, "Mr. Yu, do you remember the person you asked me to find?" Huo Linger fortunately fulfilled her mission, I found someone for you! He is Wu Jin! ”
The Taoist priest was stunned, looked at me, and hurriedly hugged his fist at me, "In Xia Wu Yu, I have seen Xiaoyou!" ”
My heart trembled, Wu Yu? He turned out to be my ancestor!
I swallowed subconsciously, not knowing what to say.
"This is Mr. Wu Yu from Zixia Palace", Huo Linger said to me, "He asked me to come to you before, saying that he was looking for you to ask for advice." Hey, what kind of god are you stunned, say something! ”
I looked at her blankly, "Don't you know about this?" ”
"What's the matter?" She was puzzled, looked at me, and then at Wu Yu, "What's wrong with the two of you?" ”
Wu Yu smiled, walked quickly to my side, looked at me, and then asked, "Dare to ask Xiaoyou, can you be in a six-in-eight formation?" "Yes," I said subconsciously as I looked at him.
Wu Yu's eyes lit up, "All of them?" ”
"The formation diagram will be, but until now, the only ones that have really mastered are the Heavenly Wheel Array, the Nine Stars Five Gate Array, the Three Mountains Gathering Soul Array and the Five Pole Array", I looked at the unfamiliar ancestor, "I haven't used the remaining four formations, so I don't have a ...... of them."
Wu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and knelt down, looking at the sky, "Shangxian really didn't lie to me!" I can't thank you enough! ”
He kowtowed excitedly.
I looked at Huo Linger in confusion and asked her in a low voice, "What's the situation?" ”
Huo Linger shrugged, "You ask me, who do I ask?" He only said that I would help him find someone who knew Liuhe Eight Formations and then his name was Wu Jin, how do I know what he was looking for you? ”
Wu Yu kowtowed, stood up, clasped his fists with both hands, and bowed deeply to me, "Little friend, I finally waited for Mr. here!" ”
I hurriedly returned the salute, "Don't be so polite, what the hell is going on?" ”
Wu Yu grabbed my arm excitedly, "Little friend, Miss Ling'er, please come into the hall to drink tea, and listen slowly!" ”
