Chapter 1 Lao Tzu sent a letter to Guguan in the west
At the end of the Shang Dynasty, the sage Tongtian Sect Master was defeated by the hands of the Four Sages, and his anger was unsettled.
The Heavenly Dao Hongjun manifested and stopped the heavens, but the desolate earth was already shattered.
The saints divided the shattered world into three worlds: heaven, earth, and man, and handed them over to the heavenly court, the earthly government, and the Great Zhou respectively. Among them, the heavenly court rules the Three Realms, the underworld is in charge of life and death, and the Great Zhou dominates the world. Thousands of years later, the heavenly court and the earthly government gradually developed, and a perfect order of the Three Realms was established.
The Great Zhou Dynasty fell apart over the years.
At this point, the status of the human world has been sharply reduced and has become the lower realm, and the heavenly realm, where the heavenly court is located, has become the upper realm.
The homeland of the human race has become a battlefield for gods and Buddhas to compete for faith, and when the demons are raging, people are shocked to find that the "saints" they rely on are all gone! No one knows where the saints have gone, Sanqing has disappeared, Nuwa has disappeared, the introduction and Zhun Ti are no longer manifested, and there are no more saints in the Three Realms!
At this time, a force led by the Western Heavenly Spirit Mountain quietly entered Middle-earth
"There really are no saints?" Ji Ming walked in Luoyang City, his heart full of questions.
is different from what he imagined before he came, the main world of Journey to the West is not a different world from the world of the gods or even the world of the Flood Desolation, but a different period of the same world. In other words, there are desolations and gods, but the times have advanced to the Journey to the West, and the world itself has not changed much.
The legend of the seven saints under the Heavenly Dao has not been broken, the three sages of the Daomen and the two saints of Buddhism have only disappeared for a few hundred years, and the deeds of the Holy Father and the Holy Mother of the Human Race are still widely spread.
The only strange thing is that the saint has disappeared without any warning, not even knowing whether he is dead or alive.
"Wife, what do you think" Ji Ming wanted to ask Lin Xuan, but before he finished speaking, he found that after Lin Xuan's incarnation came here, it dissipated silently. Immediately afterwards, through Time and Space City, Xiao Luo sent him a message: "It's strange, why does the Heavenly Dao of the Journey to the West reject me?" ”
Xiao Luo is still in Time and Space City, it's not that she didn't come, but after she came, she was immediately ostracized.
Although the suppression of the Journey to the West Heavenly Dao is large, the functions related to Time and Space City are not affected in any way, and they can still communicate through the Time and Space City network.
"The suppression of the laws of the Journey to the West is too great, unless the deity passes, otherwise even if it is an incarnation outside the body, it will dissipate under the suppression of the Heavenly Dao." Lin Xuan said. Then, she paused for a moment and said: "Xiao Luo's situation is very strange, she seems to have been to the Journey to the West and done things that are not tolerated by heaven. ”
In this regard, Xiao Luo said confusedly: "No." ”
"It may be that the life form is special and is not allowed to travel to the west." Ji Ming guessed.
At this moment, in front of him, an old man led the green ox and walked to the west.
He is no stranger to this old man, he has seen it in the Westward Journey World before, it is Taishang Laojun!
"Taishang Laojun?" Ji Ming walked over and asked with some uncertainty. In this regard, the old man shook his head and smiled, and said: "Young man, you may have recognized the wrong person, the old man's surname is Li Ming'er, and the word Boyang is a giant of the Taoist school, not a Taishang Laojun." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ji Ming was immediately stunned.
Li Er said that he was not too old man, what the hell is this?
"You're not the first person to mistake Lao Yu for Taishang Lao Jun, young man, if you have nothing to do, you might as well go with Lao Yu?" The old man led the green ox and said as he walked. Hearing this, Ji Ming hurriedly followed, and at the same time asked, "Old man, has anyone else mistaken you for Taishang Laojun?" ”
In this regard, Lao Tzu smiled and said, "Not one or two people, but almost all people." ”
"What do you mean?" Ji Ming felt that there was a big secret.
"Taishang Laojun is an illusory god created by his descendants based on the old decay and his own sacrifice, he was born from the old decay, but in fact he has nothing to do with the old man." Lao Tzu said with some emotion: "There is also the Taishang Sage, some people say that he is me, and some people say that I am his incarnation, but in fact, it has nothing to do with old decay." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ji Ming became even more confused.
Does this Li Er know the past and the future, or is he like the Ancient Buddha who burns the lamp, and comes from the endless world?
"The name of the Taishang Sage is Taiqing Daode Tianzun, and the name of the old man is Li Er, and the two of us are not the same person at all." Lao Tzu continued: "If there is any connection between him and me, it is probably only me who created the Tao, and he was born in the Tao! ”
Ji Ming: ""
He had to admit that God-man speaks, and mortals cannot understand it.
"Well, are you also from the Endless World?" Ji Ming asked tentatively.
"What is yes and what is not?" Lao Tzu said.
"Me"
"I come from the past, but I know the future, this is a certainty in the dark." Li Er also discovered his "profundity", and said with a smile: "Let's put it this way, I am the originator of the cultivation of immortals, all things related to the Tao start from me, I am the ancestor of the Dao, and the Sanqing Saint appeared earlier than me, but in fact, I am the true body of the Dao!" ”
Ji Ming was speechless again.
He couldn't help it, he rolled his eyes and said, "Old man, what exactly do you want to express?" ”
"I have cultivated all my life, and finally, I am about to complete it." Li Er did not answer, but said to himself as he walked: "Creating something out of nothing is for cultivation, there is no so-called Tao in this world, because I have achieved cultivation in the Tao, so there is a Tao in the world from now on." ”
After speaking, he suddenly picked up speed and walked west.
Ji Ming hurriedly followed, and it didn't take long for the two of them to come to Hangu Pass, where Lao Tzu stayed for seven days, and after leaving a copy of the Tao Te Ching, he rode out of the customs on a green ox. Ji Ming followed him for a long time, and slowly, his expression became weird, Lao Tzu went west to Guguan, and actually walked out of the westward journey world, Nima ran straight to Time and Space City!
Yes, Li Er, who disappeared after the west out of Guguan, he is in the city of time and space!
"You actually brought the Taishang Sage over, you are amazing!" Lin Xuan came over and praised.
"I didn't answer at all!" Ji Ming was completely messy.
Then he contacted Li Er through Time and Space City, and came to the conclusion that in real history, Li Er did go to Time and Space City after his ascension! The city of time and space is beyond time and space, and it is the final destination of the outstanding people in heaven and earth, and the truly outstanding ancients eventually went there.
But the question is, when did Ji Ming take Li Er?
In real history, when Lao Tzu sent a letter to Guguan in the west, was there a "city of time and space"?
"Time and space-related things are just a mess, forget it, don't think about it!" Ji Ming put his doubts behind him, got up and flew in the direction of Heavenly Court. At this moment, a huge coercion covered the sky, and a large ball of light crossed in front of the Nantian Gate and said: "I am Yi Zechuan, the Infinite God King, the Jade Emperor Lao'er hurried out to greet him!" ”
This big ball of light, the breath is extremely terrifying, and the cultivation is the realm, which is the peak of the Origin Supreme God Triple Heaven.
"Damn, is this going to die when you just come in?" Ji Ming admits that this ball of light is very powerful, but seriously, this little cultivation came to Nantianmen to be presumptuous, and he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead. To be continued.
