Chapter 17 Taoist Association Li Mubai
Du Group looked at Li Mubai with some surprise, it had to be considered abnormal to slander his ancestors like this.
"Brother Mu Bai's words are a bit excessive, although your ancestor has mishandled the position of the Southern and Northern Sects, but his achievements in the Southern Sect are still obvious to all, Patriarch Li Daochun has been committed to the integration of the three religions, and hopes that Taoism in the world will abandon the distinction between the northern and southern sects and jointly promote the Taoism of our country. The Jade Toad Palace in Hainan, the Hanging Temple in Shanxi and the Feixia Ancient Cave in Guangdong are all successful cases of the integration of the three religions in China, aren't they? ”
"Success stories?" Li Mubai obviously disagrees with Du Zu's statement, "China's religion Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism are three-legged, and those who have always advocated the unity of the three religions are called foresightful people, but thousands of years of evolution, facts have proved that Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism are not the same origin and different from the same root, and the unity of the three religions is just a fantasy, not only not recognized by the world, but also makes the temple lose its original authenticity." ”
Du Group looked at Li Mubai with some surprise, he probably didn't expect that looking at such a young Li Mubai's views on religion could be so profound, this is no longer an ordinary conversation between two people, it has evolved more into a discussion about religion in our country, I listened on the sidelines, there were many doubts, there were many puzzles, but more of a yearning, a longing, unconsciously I fell in love with these things, I want to understand it, I want to know more urgently.
"Mr. Lin, what do you think of our Taoism?" Li Mubai pinned his hopes on me, as the vice president of the National Taoist Association, it was impossible for him not to see my identity as a bastard.
"What do you think?" I thought for a moment, "Look with your eyes!" ”
Du Group and Li Mubai both looked at me at the same time, and then the three of them let out a burst of laughter.
"Although it is a joke, it is not unreasonable, we are all engaged in criminal investigation, right and wrong should be seen with our eyes, and there will always be no mistake in speaking with facts."
Du Group's words were recognized by me and Li Mubai, Lei Chi is only two or three kilometers away from an inn, so we soon saw the legendary Lei Chi. Li Mubai is familiar with the road, although he despises his ancestors, but he has great respect for Bai Yuchan, the founder of the Shenxiao Sect of the Five Ancestors of the Southern Sect, and most of Li Mubai's divination techniques are passed down from this sect.
"Du Group, it seems to be ordinary here, there is nothing else except a pool of stagnant water, do you think there will be clues?"
"Of course there is, the fragments of the Seven Treasure Glazed Jar are from Da Min Mountain, and this is the only place in this area that is related to Taoist legends."
Du Group and I both looked back at Li Mubai, who was making incense.
"What's strange, the Demon Management Bureau is subordinate to the Dao Association, and our Dao Association will not care if Bi Quan commits a crime."
Du Group's eyebrows locked, "The two murders alarmed the National Taoist Association, and the vice president of the Taoist Association was also dispatched, it seems that this case is very important!" ”
"At the same time, it implicates the Lei Chi Ren family and the Demon Management Bureau, and it is also related to the fifth ancestor of the Southern Sect, Bai Yuchan, do you say that such a case is still a small case?"
Li Mubai's words have attracted my attention, Ren Yaoyao's death in Wanghua Palace is too strange, if the murderer behind the scenes is really Bi Quan, then with the power of the Taoist Association, it is completely possible to go directly to get people, why bother to let the vice president of the Taoist Association go to another trip, is it possible that there is a greater power after the whole body? What is the secret in the Seven Treasures Glass Cup? The sudden intervention of the Dao Association made the case complicated again.
The thunder pool is not as magnificent as I imagined, except for a sacrificial altar by the pool, there is nothing else, surrounded by mountains on three sides, one side is backed by water, Li Mubai took the compass and circled it for a long time and suddenly exclaimed: "Greed, Lu Cun, broken army three stars, living in flowers, running against the water, this is a fierce place, the ancestor of the white jade toad will never choose this place to ascend!" ”
Looking at feng shui and pushing the stars is the skill of the diviner, Li Mubai, as the vice president of the Taoist Association, does not have to question his attainments in this regard.
Du Group looked at Li Mubai suspiciously, "Greed, Lu Cun, and Broken Army are the main culprits in Feng Shui, but I remember that my grandfather said that the three murderers will turn auspicious when they encounter water, and here is centered on Lei Chi, surrounded by three stars, and there are streams and rivers outside, how can it be a big murderer?" ”
"If you look at Lei Chi and Samsung, this is indeed a good place, but the problem is in the streams and rivers outside the mountains, living in the flowers, and Lei Chi is the eye, but all this is against the water, dead inside and alive outside, and feng shui is taboo. Patriarch Bai Yuchan created his own Shenxiao Sect, practicing the Thunder Method on the outside and the Possession Test on the inside, it was impossible for him not to see the danger of this place. ”
I didn't understand anything about the test, but a question flashed through my mind, "Is it possible that this white jade toad chose to ascend after resolving the danger here?" ”
After listening to my words, Du Group and Li Mubai suddenly woke up, "Death inside and life outside, unless water is used as a barrier to separate luck!" ”
After that, the Du group began to observe the thunder pool intently, there is no other water here except the thunder pool, but the stagnant water is turbid, if you want to know whether the white jade toad used the water as a screen to fly up here, you can only know after entering the water to observe.
"The depth of Lei Chi is unknown, it is too risky to go down rashly like this, I will notify the Taoist Association to send professional personnel to come over and assist me in the investigation, and you can follow Ren Yaoyao's case here!"
Li Mubai obviously didn't want us to continue to participate, but Du Group and I have paid so much for this case, how could we give up so easily. I saw Du Group raise his eyes and look at me, and then jumped into the thunder pool, I naturally couldn't lag behind, jumped down one after another, Li Mubai saw that the situation was not right, and also jumped into the thunder pool.
The stagnant water is not only turbid, but also smells bad, if it were not for the murder I would never do a deep dive in this kind of water, I was dazed and followed the Du group to swim for about a minute, suddenly the eyes suddenly opened up, a bright light flashed above, and Du and I quickly surfaced. This is a cave in the pool, bounded by the thunder pool, and ordinary people will not be able to find it here.
"I didn't expect there to be a hole here!" Following me and Du Group, Li Mubai also surfaced.
"There's nothing dangerous here, so the three of us better be careful."
The Du group quickly established himself as the leader of our expedition trio, and Li Mubai and I had no objections, both in terms of age and experience.
"Patriarch Bai Yu Toad was only able to cultivate the Shenxiao Thunder Law after he obtained the Thunder Book of the Gods of Limu Mountain in Lei Chi, and now it seems that this is likely to be the hometown of the Gods of Limu Mountain."
Du Group nodded, expressing his agreement with Li Mubai's statement. Soon we were ashore, and the entrance to the cave was so ordinary that there was no sign of human habitation.
A few scattered rays of light shine through the cracks above, and at first glance at the entrance to this cave, you will never think that it has anything to do with the Taoist patriarch. The entrance was narrow, like a normal underground cave, and I put my head in it and looked at it, but I couldn't see anything in the dark.
Fortunately, Li Mubai carried some light sticks for lighting, and after lighting them, Du Group and I decided to find something to try the depth of the cave first, because there was no rope or anything like that, so the three of us connected the belt around our waist with the clothes we carried with us to make a simple rope.
All the clothes were connected together about five or six meters long, and a stone was tied to one end of the rope, and then the rope was lowered, and soon the bottom was reached. Illuminated with the help of glow sticks, we can faintly see that there is an empty hall underneath the cave.
Because the entrance is too small, the three of us can only enter one after another along the rope, after the end, suddenly there is a sound of a boulder moving, and soon a dazzling strong light hit our faces, this is the light reflected through the copper mirror, there is no source of light in the depths of the cave, the ancients used the principle of light reflection to bring light to these underground caves. It's just that we didn't expect this kind of equipment to exist in a place that no one would set foot in.
After the light filled the entire hall, we were shocked by the layout here, and there were three ancient statues erected in the wide hall, which the Taoist disciples recognized at a glance, and they were all too familiar with the statues of Taizu Sanqing. Looking around the hall, the smooth walls are carved with murals, which makes people look a little overwhelmed for a while.
"This should be the place where Patriarch Bai Yu Toad soared, the ancient texts and murals on the wall should be the Book of Thunder, and Patriarch Bai Yuchan's Divine Thunder Method should be realized from this."
Both Du and Li Mubai were attracted by the murals on the wall, but I noticed something different.
