Chapter 245: Lei Zhu Sends His Life
Hearing Yang Guifei say this, I was trembling, it seems that some of today's so-called "mysteries of the ages" can only be solved by the ancients thousands of years ago!
It turned out that the "Hanging City" of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan, which has been mysterious for thousands of years in the history of Xuanmen and is unparalleled, has something to do with Huang Chao, the leader of the uprising at the end of the Tang Dynasty!
"This has to start after the defeat of the Huangchao Uprising......" Yang Guifei, who was attached to Yang Li, sighed lightly and told the story.
It turned out that from the rebellion in 875 A.D. to the failure of the uprising in 884 A.D., in nearly ten years, Huangchao returned to the original point from the peak of power. It took him only 5 years to invade Chang'an. But soon, this uprising hero, who was also "loving the people like a son", announced that he was the emperor and the country was called Daqi. He couldn't wait to take possession of all the beauties left in the palace in the Daming Palace left by Tang Xizong, and lived a life of emperor and fairy who was proud, singing and dancing, and cruel, and wasted the great opportunity to continue to pursue the Tang army and completely extinguish the momentum of the Tang army. In 884 AD, the Tang army accumulated energy and launched a counteroffensive again, and the Shatuo general Li Keyong led 50,000 Shatuo cavalry to cross from the south of the river, and defeated Huangchao in Taikang, Bianhe, and Wang Mandu. Huang Chao had no choice but to move to Shandong. In March of the same year, Zhu Wen defeated Huang Chao at Wang Mandu (now Zhongmu North, Henan), and Huang Chao's subordinates Li Yan, Ge Congzhou, Yang Neng, Huo Cun, Zhang Guiba, Zhang Guihou, Zhang Guiben and others surrendered to Zhu Wen; The remnants of Huangchao fled to the northeast, and met Li Ke for Fengqiu (now Fengqiu, Henan), under the Tang Dynasty generals Li Keyong, Zhu Wen and others before and after, in 884 AD, Huangchao led the remnants to flee to the Wolf and Tiger Valley (now Laiwu, Shandong), that is, the place where Huangchao died in history. According to the records of the Old and New Tang Dynasty, Huang Chao died in the Valley of the Wolf and Tiger on July 13, 884, and the legend of a generation of heroes came to an end.
Old Tang Book? There is the following record of Huang Chao's death in "The Biography of Huang Chao", "The nest beheaded Lin Yan and his second brother Ye and Kuo, and sent his wife to Xuzhou." Not only that, but other books such as "Xi Zongji", "Shi Pu Biography" and "Zizhi Tongjian", "Guiyuan Bi Genglu", "Beimeng Trivia" and other books in the "Old Tang Book" also have the same record. Lin Yan is Huang Chao's nephew, this Lin Yan saw that the general trend had gone, so he killed Huang Chao and his cronies and dedicated them to the Tang Army. However, the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty was written during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, during which there were years of war, and the authenticity of some historical materials in the book has always been questioned by later generations.
But according to the "New Tang Book? The Legend of Huangchao records, "The nest is clumsy, and Lin Yan said: If you take my head and sacrifice the Son of Heaven, you can get rich and noble, not for the benefit of others." Speech. The nest nephew is also unbearable; The nest is self-slaughtering". Because the "New Tang Dynasty Book" was written in the Song Dynasty, compiled by the Song Dynasty Confucian Ouyang Xiu, Song Qi and others, the era of its revision was also the strongest period of the Northern Song Dynasty, the country was peaceful, and many historical materials that were not easy to collect during the war period were sorted out and collected, so the research of the "New Tang Dynasty Book" has been recognized by many people in later generations, that is, most of the later generations believe that Huang Chao died by suicide.
For thousands of years, the history of the wild has been true. There are many Spring and Autumn brushstrokes and rumors about the mystery of Huang Chao's death, and many people in later generations believe that Huang Chao did not die in the Valley of the Wolf and Tiger, but that the golden cicada escaped from its shell and became a monk.
"Actually. Huang Chao was neither killed by his generals, nor did he kill himself! Yang Guifei's tone changed, and there was a lot of resentment in her words, "Huang Chao was defeated and retreated to the Wolf and Tiger Valley. His nephew Lin Yan did kill the 'Yellow Nest' and dedicated its head to the Tang Army, but this 'Yellow Nest' was the stand-in of the Yellow Nest, the real Yellow Nest. It is indeed a monk who has been shaved off, and the golden cicada has gone out of its shell. But he did not really come to the temple as later generations speculated, and became a monk who saw through the red dust and broke the dust, but after three years of hiding, with his secret treasure of gold, in the land of Henan in the Central Plains, he secretly established an evil sect - Tiantingzong, calling himself 'Pure Yang Zhenren', Huang Chao was 67 years old at the time, but the thief's heart did not die, and he still wanted to make a comeback, make a comeback, and covet the unfinished imperial business. Huang Chao established the 'Heavenly Hearing Sect', which is the 'Pure Yang' of the Taoist immortal Lu Dongbin, so this secret cult 'Heavenly Hearing Sect' is also known as the 'Pure Yang Sect', although some Taoist cultivation flavors, but in the final analysis, it is actually a cult and the devil's way, listen to its song 'Heavenly Hearing Sect, Ten Thousand Doors Empty, Pure Yang Sect, Four Seas, Heaven and Earth Shou, with the Reverse Dragon' can be seen, in fact, Huang Chao also wants to do the 'Reverse Dragon', and the people of his sect have called him ' 'General Reverse Dragon', this day to listen to the sect, in fact, is an underground secret organization, just to rebel again, in order to make a great treasure.
"My ghost is immortal, wandering through the ages, but in addition to looking for the earth pearl, I am also looking for the whereabouts of this old thief of the Yellow Nest, and then finally found some clues about the Heavenly Hearing Sect on the land of the Central Plains, so I finally found the Yellow Nest. Helplessly, this nest thief has a strange door Dunjia means, I can't get close to him at all, so I have been wandering and following, in order to see the right time to catch him in his body and jump off the cliff - hey! It's a pity that I have only been dead for more than 90 years, and with my ghost path cultivation back then, I can't help him at all, if it is today, I have cultivated a thousand-year-old incorruptible body, and I will definitely be able to let him die without a place to be buried! Later, as my ghost path cultivation became more and more refined, and many years passed, the old thief of the Yellow Nest was already a seventy-year-old man, and when I thought I could take his life, something strange happenedโโ"
When Yang Guifei said this, she suddenly stopped, her face palpitated, as if she hated the past, and her heart ached.
It turned out that the ghost of Yang Guifei finally found Huang Chao, who had opened an altar and established a sect and established the cult "Tianting Sect" to plot against him again, but her ghost cultivation was still shallow, and she didn't dare to approach Huang Chao, who was armed with gossip and strange arts. Later, she continued to lurk in the Yin Vein Crypt to practice the ghost path, and a few years later, Huang Chao was nearing the end of aging, Yang Guifei expected to be able to harm Huang Chao to death, and in the middle of the night, he lurked in Huang Chao's residence again, in order to cause harm.
But that night, in the depths of the secret house of Huang Chao's residence, there were several men who were very strangely dressed, dressed and talked and behaved, and the clothes and styles of the Chinese men in the Central Plains were very different. It turned out that these strange people were actually the descendants of Chiyou, the Lei Yan people of the Yang clan, who were the descendants of Chiyou who built the "Hanging City" for eternity with a magical and groundbreaking method!
Chi You is the chief of the Jiuli tribe in ancient times, the king of Jiuli, he led the eighty-one clans of Jiuli, in the "Battle of Zhuolu" and the Yellow Emperor, one of the "ancestors of Yan and Huang", launched a dark Armageddon, and finally killed by the Yellow Emperor, Chiyou was admired and worshiped by all ethnic groups in later generations, and many ethnic minorities deified Chiyou as "God of War" and "Martial God". The Lei Yan people of the Yang clan are a descendant of the eighty-one clan of Chiyou Jiuli, who are good at the method of craftsmen and civil engineering, and legend has it that the carpenter ancestor Lu Ban is the descendant of the clan. After the defeat and death of Chiyou Zhuolu. Yang's Lei Yan escaped to the mountains, with extraordinary construction technology and mysterious mana, built a unique "hanging city" in the history of Xuanmen, "Three Emperors Tell the Strange Chronicles", this city "thunder and lightning, can float in the blue sky; When the flood is monstrous, it is hidden in the nine secluded three springs", Xu Fu, a master of the Qin Dynasty, said that this city "created the ancient gods of the clock, and amazed the wonders of the cave and the world".
However, since Chiyou died in battle and the people of the Yang clan have been hidden for more than 3,000 years, this ancient wonder of heaven and earth "Hanging Ancient City" has become a mystery of Xuanmen through the ages. Attracted the people of Xuanmen to this like "the cave of the fairyland, the world of bliss" of the place yearning, thousands of years, countless masters have been diligently explored, but have not found the whereabouts of this hanging city.
After all, Yang Guifei was born in the imperial palace for many years, and she herself also believes in Buddhism and Taoism, and has close contacts with many astronomical magicians and Taoist masters in the Tang Dynasty. But right now. Suddenly, I saw the people of the Lei Yan clan of the Yang clan with my own eyes, and I was also very surprised.
"These people of the Yang clan, who had disappeared for nearly two thousand years at that time (the end of the Tang Dynasty), came to find the Huangchao traitor at this moment, saying that Huangchao was old. If you want to ascend to the emperor's business, it is a yellow flower of tomorrow', and once you die of old age, everything is empty. Only by storing the number of lives can we not grow old with the sky, and try to rebel for thousands of years...... That Huang Chao was originally proficient in the way of gossip and magic. Naturally, I realized it, and I saw the most mysterious and mysterious people of the Yang clan in history, so why not believe their words? Huang Chao hated that he was already seventy years old, and he wanted to show his majesty again, and now he heard that the people of the Yang clan had mastered the method of 'depositing people's lives', so that their spirit and memory could live forever, which was equivalent to immortality. When the people of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan clan said this, how could he not be willing? However, the people of the Yang clan also said that in order to store the number of lives, it is necessary to find a person whose birth date matches the character of the life, and store the number of lives in his body, so that the number of lives can be passed down from generation to generation, and the person whose life matches the number of his life needs to be transferred to the body of others, so that the big furniture is not the person of the natal person, but the life of all people can be passed down for thousands of years through the 'law of life' of the Lei clan of the Yang clan......
Huang Chao thought at the time, if his life was transferred and entrusted, then what should he do with his body? Could it be, let it become a soulless and soulless ownerless body, and let it die of old age? Those few people of the Sheep Clan's Lei Yan clan swallowed and vomited, and their words flickered, and Huang Chao knew that there must be something different, so he begged him to make it clear, otherwise he would not agree to deposit and transfer his life. Those Yang Lei people had no choice but to finally present the truth: it turned out that the Yang Lei people came to ask Huang Chao to transfer the number of lives, but in fact, they themselves had to transfer the number of lives - their ancestors, the ancient god of war Chi You, although they were killed by the Yellow Emperor in Zhuolu, but the Yang Lei people had already transferred the number of Chi You's lives, and the 'Chi You' who died in the hands of the Yellow Emperor only had the body of Chi You, and there was no life of Chi You, the real Chi You was transferred by the Yang Lei Hui people! It's just that the people who can match the eight-character life of Chi You's birthday, the people of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan have been looking for two thousand years, and they have not found it, so they can only seal the life of Chi You on a so-called 'thunder bead', so for two thousand years, although the number of Chi You's life is still there, but because there is no parasite, yes, and can not make waves at all, revenge and hatred, it is precisely that the Yang Lei Hui people are all over the world to find, after two thousand years, finally found a person who matches the life of Chi You in the last years of the Tang Dynasty - that is, it is already old and decrepit, is still in the Yellow Nest for the revival of the emperor's industry!
"Sure enough, Chi You and Huang Chao are really a pair of eternal evil kings, fierce and warlike, ambitious, and their lives match, which is really not surprising. It turned out that the people of the Lei Yan tribe of the Yang clan were diligent in looking for people who matched Chi You's personality, and they were also to resurrect Chi You, so that Chi You could give birth to three heads and six arms again, and go to find the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor's shame and unification of the world, but unfortunately, after two thousand years, the bones of the Yellow Emperor have turned to ashes, and Chi You has no life left. And without parasitism, it is just a wisp of ghosts. Huang Chao was also very shocked when he heard the decomposition of the Lei Yan clan of the Yang Clan, if his body could be lent to the ancient god of war, it would indeed be an unprecedented meeting. Huang Chao also knows that if this god of war is reincarnated, he will want to reign in the world, and his dream of dominating the country will have to stand aside, but. Even if you have your own life but can be transferred to someone else, you have the wonderful fruit of immortality, what is the difference between this and being an immortal? What's more, if he doesn't agree to 'borrow his body' from the ancestor of the Lei tribe of the Yang clan, Chi You, with his old body that is about to enter the earth, it is just a dream to achieve the imperial industry. Even if you can't be an emperor, you can have an 'immortality', which is not as good as you expected...... Immediately, Huang Chao agreed to the people of the Yang clan. Entrust his body to them to carry Chiyou's life.
"But if you want to entrust your body to Chi You's life, you must first transfer your own life and store it, and listen to what the Lei Yan people of the Yang clan said. They had already found someone for Huang Chao who matched his birth date - a woman from a family surnamed Yang in the land of Wuyue in the south of the Yangtze River, and at that time, Huang Chao was immediately furious: How could he transfer his life to a woman? If she becomes a woman, how can she get away with the world and make a career again? The people of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan tribe immediately appeased it: with the 'law of life' of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan people. The man's yang life is stored in the woman's body, and the yin and yang life number five elements and eight trigrams have the mystery of rushing, and this life number can be transferred from the body at any time. It is incomparably free, in particular, there is no need to be like a man's life to entrust the man's body, and he must wait until his body is old and sick and dies before he can find the next parasitic body to continue to transfer the number of lives, therefore, the man's life is entrusted to the woman's body, so that he does not need to feel the birth, old age, sickness, death, and pain and sorrow of the parasite, as long as he finds the woman who matches his life, he can get rid of the original parasitic body and transfer it at any time, of course, the life of the new parasitic body itself will be overwhelmed by its life pool, once its life is transferred again, This woman's own life will break the fate of the pool master, and there is nothing abnormal for her.
"This moved Huang Chao, so that he was willing to transfer the number of lives to a woman's body, the most critical factor is that the Yang clan Lei Yan people said: If the man's life is transferred to the man's body, he must wait until the man's body is old and sick before he can transfer his life to 'immortality', but to transfer the life again, it is necessary for the Yang clan Lei Yan people to cast spells again - if this life number wants to survive for thousands of years, it must be transferred from generation to generation. The key is that the number of people of the Yang Clan's Lei Clan has lived in seclusion in that top-secret 'Hanging City' for thousands of years, and they cannot go out of the city at any time to cast spells for someone, for example, this time the Yang Clan's Lei Clan people go out of the city to find Chi You's life - Huang Chao, and it will be decades or even hundreds of years later until the next time the Yang Clan's Lei Clan people go out of the city again! Yes, if you want to transfer your life to a man's body, once this man dies of old age after a few decades, and the people of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan clan can't go out of the city to cast a spell to transfer your life again, your Huang Chao's life will be swallowed and melted by the two qi of heaven and earth, good and evil, and you will never be able to live forever!
Therefore, the people of the Yang clan Lei Yan thought very thoroughly, but they found a woman with the same fate for Huang Chao in advance, that is, to transfer the life of the man to the woman's body, then the number of lives can be freely transferred from the body, as long as the woman who matches the life can be sent up again, and there is no need for the Yang clan Lei Yan people to come to cast a spell to send their lives. In this way, you can live in the world for thousands of years and as you wish, which is also a disguised 'immortal' physique...... This Yang clan's Lei Yan clan's 'method of life' is so mysterious and shocking, Huang Chao thought about it for a long time, sighed for a long time, and then agreed to the Yang clan's Lei Yan people. At that time, the Lei Yan people of the Yang clan divided into two routes, all the way back to the unpredictable 'Hanging City', to take out the 'Thunder Bead' that sealed the number of Chi You's life, and all the way they prepared to take Huang Chao to the land of Wuyue in the south of the Yangtze River to find a woman surnamed Yang. Once the thunder bead is retrieved, the Yang clan's Lei Yan clan casts a spell to transfer the life number of Huang Chao to the woman, and instantly transfer the life number of Chi You sealed in the thunder bead to the body of Huang Chao - in this way, Huang Chao was born of the opposite sex, and Chi You was reborn, and the only one who lost his life was the woman who was occupied by Huang Chao - was restrained in its life pool, as long as Huang Chao's life was transferred to other women, she could recover her original life.
"At that time, my ghost lurked around several of them, and when I heard that the body of the Yellow Nest was about to be taken over by Chi You and reborn, and that his life was going to be transferred to a woman, if it was realized, it was very likely that it would be difficult for me to take revenge - as soon as I reported the shame of this old thief of the Yellow Nest who had dug up the tombs of me and San Lang, stole my earth beads, and humiliated my body, I was in a hurry, and immediately appeared, wanting to rush to the body of the Yellow Nest, causing it to hit the wall. But I didn't expect that those few people of the Sheep Clan's Lei Yan clan were strange people with extraordinary means, as soon as they saw the yin and evil approaching, they immediately took out a few strange stone mirrors, and the stone mirrors emitted a burst of strange light towards me, and when this strange light illuminated, I instantly felt like the scorching sun baked my body, and then I felt that the incorruptible body I had cultivated was broken by these mirrors! I hurriedly turned away and left, my true body was broken, and my original charm was suddenly old and shriveled, Mr. Fang, you have seen my real body, I am really an old woman, hey...... Later, I didn't dare to reappear in front of the Lei Yan people of the Yang Clan, but fortunately, after lurking for another thousand years, I cultivated my true body again. โ
When Yang Guifei said this, Yang Tiancong and I were already shocked and dumbfounded, all these eternal fogs can actually find the answer from Yang Guifei's mouth! I saw Yang Tiancong's face frightened, I naturally knew the reason for the fear and anxiety in his heart at the moment, and before he could ask, I said: "The soldiers of the Yang clan's Lei Yan clan are divided into two ways, all the way back to the Hanging City to get the 'Lei Zhu' that sealed the number of Chi You's life, and all the way to take Huang Chao to Wu Yue Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River to find a woman surnamed Yang, just to transfer his life for Chi You and Huang Chao at the same time...... However, I guess that this Chi You's life was not successfully transferred to Huang Chao's body, right? โ
"Yes!" Yang Guifei nodded, "Otherwise, if the ancient god of war Chi You is really reborn, all the history of the next thousand years will be rewritten!" In the world, there are thousands of years of blood and rain, and the world is in chaos...... At that time, Huang Chao and a few people from the Lei Yan tribe of the Yang clan rushed to Wuyue Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River, and I also followed. The few of them had been anxiously waiting for the other way of the Sheep Clan's Lei Yan clan to fetch the Thunder Bead from the Hanging City. However, many days later, those people of the Yang Clan's Lei Yan clan rushed back, but they were all depressed, saying that Lei Zhu was missing! โ
When Yang Guifei said this, everyone who was fascinated by it trembled.
The reason why I believe that Chi You's fate has not been transferred to the body of Huang Chao is that I have already had some karmic understanding: I heard from the unjust soul of Na Luo Qingyang earlier, according to the clues recorded in the shadow book of heaven written by the Tang Dynasty master Li Chunfeng - "Mending Heaven Record", he explored among the vast famous mountains and rivers for ten years, and found one of the five "Thunder Beads" contained in the "Mending Heaven Record" at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.
If I guessed correctly, the "Hanging Ancient City" built by the Lei Yan people of the Yang Clan, its general geographical location is in the Kunlun Mountains, which is the place where the great metaphysician Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty believes that "the descendants of Jiuli Sanmiao Jingman". It can be true, if I guess correctly, the "Thunder Bead" that Luo Qingyang found is the "Thunder Bead" in the mouth of the Lei Yan clan of the Yang Clan, which "sealed the number of Chi You's lives"!
Luo Qingyang took the thunder bead, naturally, Chi You's life was not transferred to the body of Huang Chao, yes, in the past thousand years, there was no god of war "Chi You" in the world.
This Southern Song Dynasty Xuanmen master Luo Qingyang is really made by heaven, and the fate of heaven is not shallow, and the thunder bead he found actually sealed the rest of the life of the ancient god of war Chi You! The key is, according to what Yang Guifei said, the means of this Yang clan's Lei Yan clan are extraordinary, and the thunder bead that sealed the number of Chi You's life must be the "treasure of the town" of his hanging city, and it must be guarded and protected by three layers inside and three layers outside, so how did Luo Qingyang, a person in the Xuanmen who has no power to restrain chickens, take the thunder bead from the hands of the Yang clan's Lei Yan clan?
