Ask Sword Shanhai Chapter 138 Trouble again
The next day, the group of Mujing Road hurriedly left Wuxian City. What Mu Jing Lu didn't know was that if he didn't count the 'uncle' that Shang Mu Lu recognized, and if he didn't count the 'General Outline of Witchcraft' and the strange remnants that Shang Mu Lu got in Wu Luo, Mu Jing Lu's night visit to the palace would not have much effect.
Even if Mu Jinglu didn't tell Wu Luo to leave a message for Liu Zhen, the goal of Liu Zhen's trip was to go south. However, Liu Zhen went south, not to the 100,000 Great Mountain, but to Luofu Mountain, one of the four magic mountains in Kyushu.
Thousands of years ago, Luofu Mountain was a place where Confucianism was relatively prosperous among Taoism, Buddhism and the ancient princes. Luofu Mountain has not yet become a magic mountain, there are many famous monks on the mountain, and the most well-known to the people in the Luofu Mountain area is the true monarch Ge Hong.
According to Ge Hong's title, Ge Hong's cultivation was not simple, although it was decided to fly in their time. can be called a true monarch, that must be a Taoist monarch. Daojun's Taoism is at least a green level, or even a blue level.
Ge Hong went to Luofu Mountain and successively built four nunnery in the east, west, south and north of the mountain. According to folk rumors, Ge Hong and his wife, the famous acupuncture doctor Bao Gu, made alchemy, preached, and practiced medicine. Ge Hong wrote a lot of books, expounded Taoist theories, and was the ancestor of the Lingbao sect of the Southern Sect of Taoism.
Following Ge Hong, Buddhist disciples also began to set foot in the territory of Jingzhou and began to spread Buddhism in the area of Luofu Mountain. As for why it is said that Luofu Mountain is a prosperous place for Confucianism in ancient times, it is all because there are hundreds of large and small academies on Luofu Mountain.
Nine thousand years ago, the Nightmare invaded again. This nightmare invasion is also the largest scale after the first nightmare invasion. Not doing so, the Nightmare Demon attacked and invaded the Xuanwei Continent from the north against the past, and I don't know what method was used to open up a huge trick on Luofu Mountain, where the monks were all over the place, so that the southern front, which was originally used as the rear, became the front line of the Nightmare War.
This stop not only caught humans and other creatures off guard, but also caused human beings to suffer heavy losses. If it weren't for the last intercession of the Demon Beast Palace, inviting the demon beasts and spirit beasts in the 100,000 mountains to participate in the battle, I am afraid that Kyushu would have already become the territory of the demons.
It was also after that stop that Luofu Mountain became a magic mountain, and from time to time there would be some small tricks, so that the Earth Realm Demon appeared in Luofu Mountain and harmed the living beings. Today's Luofu Mountain, like the other four magic mountains, is full of wilderness trees, and there are few traces.
As the time of the invasion of the demon is getting closer and closer, the periphery of Luofu Mountain is naturally surrounded by the combined forces of Jingzhou and Yangzhou to prevent the demon from stepping out of the range of Luofu Mountain.
And at this time, above Kyushu, there was news that one of the top ten artifacts of ancient times, the 'Jiuli Pot'. The legend of 'Jiuli Pot' is the treasure of one of the ancient races, Jiuli Clan, also known as 'Demon Refining Pot'
It is rumored that in the past two months, on Luofu Mountain, visions are frequent, and there will be golden flashes from time to time. Some people even see that on Luofu Mountain, there is often a huge jade pot phantom. Anyone who sees the phantom of this jade pot will feel a huge suction coming from the jade pot in the sky, as if they want to suck the souls of living beings into it.
In the legend above Kyushu, the 'Demon Refining Pot' not only has the function of holding all things, but also has a natural restraint for the soul. And the rumors of the phantom of the jade pot on Luofu Mountain show that the phantom of this jade pot is the legendary 'demon refining pot'.
Speaking of this Jiuli tribe, the legends on the Xuanwei Continent are almost the same as the legends about the Jiuli tribe in the Yanhuang Kingdom in the previous life known by Mu Jinglu.
In ancient times, in the upper and lower reaches of the yellow water, there lived an ethnic group, 'Li'. This group has nine large tribes, so it is called Jiuli.
This Jiuli is very tight. Not only occupies the middle and lower reaches of the most fertile Yellow Water, but there is also a big demon king among the Jiuli clan that has been passed down to this day and is terrifying. said to be the demon king, but in fact, this person is also a human being, that is, he once fought with the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan in the world-famous Zhulu City.
Chiyou was defeated and was captured and killed by the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan outside the city.
After the defeat of Chiyou, part of the Jiuli people submitted to the rule of the Yellow Emperor and came under the rule of the Yellow Emperor. Some of them stayed in the north and established the Li State, but in the end they were swept in by the Central Plains, which was constantly conquering, and the country was destroyed.
As for the last part, it retreated to the south of the river and established the Sanmiao Tribal Alliance, which has also disappeared in the long history of Xuanwei today. It's just that now at the junction of Jingzhou Kingdom and 100,000 Mountains, there is still a group of Jiuli descendants who believe in Wu Ancestor and cultivate with Gu arts, highlighting the existence of the once glorious Jiuli people.
The Jiuli people have disappeared, although there is no evidence in the world, but they all believe that the Wuxian country, which also believes in Wu Zu, has an inextricable relationship with the Jiuli people. This is also why, in the Sanmiao area south of Jingzhou, there are still many human beings who call themselves the Jiuli tribe, and they have not been completely wiped out by the Central Plains monks.
To get back to the point, the rumors that the 'Demon Refining Pot' on Luofu Mountain is about to appear are spreading throughout Kyushu, and Mujing Road and others have heard about Luofu Mountain and 'Demon Refining Pot' everywhere.
And the 'Demon Refining Pot' is the treasure of the ancient Jiuli tribe, hearing that the 'Demon Refining Pot' is about to appear, the Jiuli people naturally regard the 'Demon Refining Pot' as the treasure they should obtain, and the people of the Ju clan crossed the border of Jingzhou and went to Luofu Mountain.
"I said Xiaobai, haven't you already inquired about the general plan of the Emperor Gate, why don't you return to the Shuge Mountain Gate and hand in the task?"
Mu Jinglu looked at Li Xiaobai with a somewhat playful expression and said, as if he wanted to drive Li Xiaobai away. Li Xiaobai rode a seemingly ordinary horse, shook the small wine pot in his hand and pecked lightly and laughed: "Naturally, someone has passed the news back, and you kid has been asking all the way, do you want me to leave, and when I get to Luofu Mountain, I will have the 'Demon Refining Pot'?"
"I'm not interested in the 'Demon Refining Pot'. Mu Jinglu patted Jixu's neck, and said with a smile: "There are a lot of great powers to go to Luofu Mountain, and if you want to grab the 'Demon Refining Pot', it's not something that a few of me can take." ”
"That's not easy to say!" Li Xiaobai laughed loudly: "The ancestor Liu Axe once said in a poem: The front waves of the Yangtze River push the back waves, and the front waves die on the beach." I am a handsome man, maybe anyone will have that opportunity, one step ahead of those so-called real people and Taoist monarchs, and maybe they will get the 'Demon Refining Pot'. ”
"It's 'floating things for the old', not something to die on the beach!" Mu Jinglu looked at Li Xiaobai with a dark face, and said with the corners of his mouth twitching.
"It's okay, it's okay! It's my duty for my descendants to respect our ancestors, but occasionally changing the poems of our ancestors is more in line with the scene, isn't it?" Li Xiaobai shook his head indifferently and chuckled: "You have changed this last sentence well, it is in line with my taste, I like it." ”
Mu Jinglu never thought that he casually practiced the ridicule of his previous life on the road, and he was actually read catchy by Li Xiaobai, and the more he practiced, the more energetic he became.
Li Xiaobai didn't care, but Mu Jinglu was worried that if other Shuge disciples or those pedantic literati heard it, he might have to scold his back.
However, at this time, outsiders didn't know that this sentence came from the intersection of the pasture path, and many people who were also in a hurry kept throwing contemptuous glances at Li Xiaobai.
"Little Brother Mu, don't you think this so-called 'Demon Refining Pot' appears very strange?" The strange old man didn't know when he came to the back of Mujing Road, and asked with a strange expression. Mu Jinglu nodded faintly.
"The secret realm of Xudu has changed, the 'Nine Wells' have changed, and the 'Xuanyuan Sword Spirit' has reappeared, and there have been many strange things during this time. Mu Jinglu tilted his head slightly, looked at the old man with some curiosity and said, "What did the predecessor refer to?"
The old man looked at the pastoral path, then stroked his beard, and chuckled: "Little Brother Mu is planning to go to Luofu Mountain so stunned?"
"What do you mean by seniors, that we are in a detour and even have a flying performance?"
Mu Jing Lu's words, the strange old man choked a lot, cough a few times, and then glanced at Mu Jing Road, a little displeased tilted his head, his right hand flipped, took out a candy and handed it to the boy who rode with him.
The little boy took it with a smile and licked it by himself, looking innocent. Mu Jing Lu squinted at the little boy, then looked at the old man who was a little embarrassed, and without saying much, he rode his horse to the Mu Jing Lu team, the new member.
"Brother Wude, is that so-called 'Jiuli pot' really related to the Jiuli people?"
In front of the pastoral path was a middle-aged man who was somewhat similar to Wu Luo that night. The face of the national character, with two whiskers above the lips, and a different Wu people's attire, looks a little different.
Wu De held an ebony staff at his waist in one hand and the reins in the other, and said without waiting too much emotion: "It has nothing to do with it." ”
"Huh?!" Mu Jinglu was slightly stunned, and continued to ask, "What do you mean by Brother Wude?"
"Although it was obtained by Jiuli, it is a common thing in the world, and there is virtue to live in. ”
The pastoral path probably understood what Wu De meant. Although the 'Jiuli pot' was obtained by the Jiuli people in ancient times, it temporarily belonged to the Jiuli people. However, the 'Jiuli pot' is one of the top ten artifacts of ancient times, and in Wu De's view, it is not inherent in the Jiuli people, but should be given to virtuous people and people who have a natural fate.
Mu Jinglu was also a little speechless about the eldest brother sent by Wu Luo. Wu De is good at everything, but he is too cold. It seems that in Wu De's eyes, nothing can be seen. Even the artifact 'Jiuli Pot', which everyone in the world wants, is no different from dung in Wu De's eyes.
"Brother Wude. Mu Jinglu gathered a little closer, and asked in a somewhat curious tone: "Then what is the relationship between your Wuxian Kingdom and the Sanmiao Yu clan outside Kyushu?"
Wu De pulled the reins, stopped the war beast that was slowly moving forward, turned his head and looked at the pasture path lightly, and said expressionlessly: "It can be regarded as the same sect, nor is it the same sect." ”
, what does rice mean? Yes, no, no, where does it come from?
Wu De ignored the confused pasture path, slapped the horse's belly lightly with his legs, and said with a faint look: "Ten thousand years ago, all the creatures in Kyushu were of the same clan, and they could all be of different races. ”
Grandma's, this is the same as the sentence of the pasture road's previous life, we were a family five hundred years ago. According to the theory of evolution in previous lives, how many billion years ago, the creatures of the entire planet were still one ancestor, I rely on it, I didn't say it.
The journey seemed so easy, but the heart of the pastoral road was full of worries.
After having the experience of the 'Xuanyuan Sword Spirit', Mu Jinglu did not simply think that the so-called 'Demon Refining Pot' was just a magical unearthing. Mu Jinglu's heart kept telling himself that the appearance of the 'Demon Refining Pot' must be behind the traces of the Demon Scheme.
And I also got the news before, and the demon often appears in various places where the initiation is excavated, participating in the competition for magic weapons. Mu Jinglu was very worried, if it was really as he expected, the Nightmare Demon could use the magic weapon of the human being, then after seven years, the Nightmare Demon army was overwhelming, and the human and other creatures in Kyushu would be stopped.
In addition to this problem, Mu Jinglu is more worried that if the artifact is unearthed, it is all planned or caused by the Nightmare Demon, then the purpose of the Nightmare Demon is probably not just as simple as snatching treasures and killing people.
Ritual instruments are always just ritual instruments, and for monks, they can only be used as auxiliaries. The monk's cultivation and experience are the foundation for a monk to dominate the world and be invincible.
Pastoral path would not think that the Nightmare would think that just a few so-called artifacts could wipe out the Nightmare army. The more I think about it, the more worried I become.
Ay... If only this would be Lu Yu by his side. With Lu Yu's aura, coupled with his own unique analysis, he will definitely be able to figure out what the demon is going to do.
Mu Jinglu thought helplessly, he had to take one step at a time, and when he reached the bottom of Luofu Mountain, everything would be revealed.
It seems that some people, or some people who are not human, are going to start making things happen again.
On the way to the road, Mu Jinglu naturally kept teaching Jiang Ziwen to start cultivating the foundation building method of the Sword Pavilion, recasting the spiritual power in Jiang Ziwen's style and becoming a real sword cultivator.
It stands to reason that Jiang Ziwen's qualifications and comprehension should not be bad, but what makes Mu Jinglu strange is that no matter how hard Jiang Ziwen tries, the speed of Jiang Ziwen's spiritual power transformation has not reached the point that Mu Jinglu expected.
However, the thing of chance is always inadvertently, so that a person who should meet something at the right time, let this person meet coincidentally and deliberately.
Jiang Ziwen is a disciple of Mu Jinglu, and after Mu Jinglu got the 'General Outline of Witchcraft', he was not too stubborn that the 'General Outline of Witchcraft' could only be used by the heirs he found for Wu Luo, so Mu Jinglu luckily handed the 'General Outline of Witchcraft' to Jiang Ziwen to take a look.
What Mu Jinglu didn't expect was that just at a glance, Jiang Ziwen was actually addicted to the 'General Outline of Witchcraft'. Mu Jinglu wanted to take back the 'General Outline of Witchcraft', but Jiang Ziwen asked for it several times with pleading eyes.
Oh!
