Chapter 599: Nothing is right

No, no, the bamboo slip clearly said that he took the risk to steal because his father was seriously ill, and the old Taoist also said that there are only two people who can live forever throughout the ages, one is Zhou Lie, and the other is Luo Zhongxing, during the Han Dynasty, Luo Zhongxing's father could not be alive.

Is the Luo Zhongxing on this book really the Luo Zhongxing I am looking for?

I clasped my hands together and stared at the bamboo slips on the ground, and my thoughts were a little confused for a while.

At this time, I remembered that the people of Shiquan Dao had set a fire in the Soul Village, and almost burned the thousand-year-old foundation of the Soul Village.

I remember that the master said that before Luo Zhongxing set fire to Jisoul Village, he also did a big thing - bloodbathing Jiufeng Mountain.

The books in the cabinet are only in the Eastern Han Dynasty at the latest, and the books and slips in the Sui and Tang dynasties are all in the outer cabinet, but I have read most of the books in the outer cabinet, and there is nothing related to Luo Zhongxing.

There is no Soul Village, what about Jiufeng Mountain, will there be other clues in Jiufeng Mountain?

As soon as I thought of this, Xian'er came in with a few plastic bags, and muttered as she walked towards me, "Is it really good to eat in this kind of place?" ”

"It doesn't matter, just clean up after eating." As I spoke, I walked towards the bookshelves in the deepest part of the cabinet.

Since Luo Zhongxing appeared in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, perhaps some information about him can be found in the books of that era.

I drank porridge with a bowl in one hand, and with the other hand, I kept pulling out bamboo slips, and Xian'er was holding the bamboo slips I had just seen and was looking at them very seriously.

My target is mainly related to the Yellow Turban Uprising, for this turmoil that almost overthrew the Han Court, the cabinet has a large number of documents, most of which mainly involve the role played by Wudou Midao in it, I looked at a bunch of bamboo slips, and did not find any clues related to the Shiquan Dao people.

Just when I was worried, Xian'er said to herself next to me, "Who is this old monk?" ”

I turned my head to look at her, who was holding a bamboo slip in contemplation.

"What old friar?" I asked her.

She raised her head and said to me, "It's the person who passed on the Ten Perfections to Luo Zhongxing, speaking of which, before I heard the title of Ten Perfection Daoists, I didn't know that there were Ten Perfections, and I didn't know whether this Taoism belonged to Taoism or any other sect. ”

Her words reminded me, yes, who is this old friar?

Xian'er paused, and then said to me, "There is a way, there is something I want to remind you. ”

"What's the matter?"

Xian'er said: "The name Luo Zhongxing seems to be a secret that is not passed on, I remember that Chai Ye told you not to tell this name to others." But how do I think, now many people know him, and they also know that he is a perfect Taoist. In addition to a few of us, you Senior Brother Zhuang, Senior Brother Geng, Senior Brother Bao, and Old Man Xia and Old Man Zhao, they should all know about it. By the way, there is also Li Renfeng. ”

I nodded: "Looks like that...... But I never told them about Luo Zhongxing, how did they know about it? ”

Xian'er was happy on the spot: "Ha, I have times when I am smarter than you." ”

I smiled perfunctorily and pulled the topic back: "Xian'er, then in your opinion, what should be the identity of the old monk who passed on the Ten Perfections Dao to Luo Zhongxing?" ”

Xian'er thought for a while and said, "Actually, I always feel that the Ten Perfections Dao was created by Luo Zhongxing himself. Well...... Maybe that old monk is the person of the Ten Perfections, and as for Luo Yun on the bamboo slip, he may be a person with the same name as him. That's what I think anyway, and if you don't think it's reliable, you can ignore me. ”

I smiled, this time it was a laugh from the bottom of my heart, I had a hunch that Xian'er's words were likely to be the key to finding out Luo Zhongxing's identity.

Stuffing a few books back into the shelves, I ran to the shelves where the books from the Shang and Zhou periods were stored.

In the past, all the books in the cabinet were piled up in a disorderly manner, but during the year when Jisoulzhuang kept the tomb of the master, I cursolutly looked through each of them and reclassified and rearranged them according to their general chronology.

Although there are a lot of books in the cabinet, fortunately, the end of each book is marked with the year number, which is relatively easy to organize.

I asked Xian'er to help me find it, focusing on the books related to Jiang Taigong, and if it mentions the Ten Perfections, or records the deeds of characters that are not in the history books, show it to me.

Xian'er doesn't seem to know much about history, and while helping me find it, she keeps asking me who Ji Fa is, who Ji Chang is, whether Di Xin and King Su are the same person, and so on, I can't help but answer them one by one, anyway, answering these questions is just moving my mouth, and it doesn't affect my ability to find books.

I remember that Master used to tell me that if I had time, I should read more history books, but now I feel more and more that the reason why the disciples who keep the right line have the habit of studying history is probably also to one day solve the mystery of the life experience of the Ten Perfection Daoists.

Keeping the right line seems to exist because of the Ten Perfection Dao people.

In the thick pile of Jane, Xian'er and I finally found some clues, and I forgot that the book Jane was found by me or Xian'er, but I remember that it was written on the eve of the Battle of Makino, and the person who wrote these contents was called Wu Wudang, a nobody in the merchant army.

This article is not like the writing of other ancient books, more like a letter to yourself, the main content is that a group of people plan to defect to the Zhou army during the battle of Muye, Wudang is also one of these people, he was born in the declining clan of Chaoge City, he wants to be loyal to Di Xin, but he doesn't want to be hostile to Jiang Taigong, on a sleepless night, Wudang wrote the process of his inner struggle on the animal skin, and in the end he didn't think about what to do, so he could only leave the barracks at night and become a deserter.

Yes, he wrote these words on the animal skin in the first place, and at the end of the article, he said that he had rearranged what he had written down in the past onto this bamboo slip. and said that he became a prisoner of the Zhou army when he fled, and Jiang Taigong saw that he was smart and clever, and he could read and write, so he stayed by his side and became a slave.

I looked at the end of the bamboo slip, and the year name on it was: the third year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty.

Before the Han Dynasty, there was no era name, and it is basically certain that this bamboo slip appeared in the period of Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty, from the Battle of Muye to the Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, there was an interval of at least 800 years.

And on the bamboo slips, there is a very clear signing: everything is not appropriate.

Now I have three clues about Luo Zhongxing in my hand, he has the title of "Ten Perfection Daoists", and he followed Jiang Taigong to suppress the night demon three thousand years ago and live forever.

Connecting the three threads, I can be sure that the person who wrote these things is the perfect person.

I put this book slip away and beckoned to Xian'er: "Let's go, let's go find Liang Houzai and them, and bring the bamboo slip that you just gave you with you." ”

Xian'er looked at me in astonishment: "You want to take out the ancient books in the cabinet?" But Chai Ye didn't say ......"

I interrupted her: "Rules are dead, people are alive. ”

She packed up the food on the ground and followed me out of the Sansheng Stone Gate.

When I closed the door, Xian'er asked me again: "You say, since Luo Zhongxing built such a cabinet, why did he make such a stone door, doesn't it mean that only people who can urge Fantianyin can open this door?" ”

I said: "Luo Zhongxing may not be able to urge the Fantian Seal, and without the Fantian Seal, he may not be able to open this door." But I don't think he really could have opened the door. ”

Xian'er looked at me with wide eyes: "Have you been infected by that old Taoist, why have you become foggy when you speak?" ”

I smiled: "I want to say that when the cabinet was built, Luo Zhongxing should have thought that he would lose his heart one day, and he hid the secret of his life here, just so that future generations could find out." Perhaps, to make such a stone gate, he feared that one day he would return here and destroy all the secrets. ”

Xian'er thought for a while and said, "That means that Luo Zhongxing knows the location of the Soul Village, and he can also enter and exit freely like the disciples of the Soul Village?" ”

I shook my head, "I don't know, maybe." However, I think that with his cultivation, even if he rushes into the Soul Village and kills everyone, it will be easy, but he didn't do it, there must be a reason for this. ”

"Cultivation?" Xian'er was puzzled: "You haven't seen it again, how do you know if his cultivation is high or low?" ”

I waved my hand at Xian'er, signaling to go out first, and we closed our eyes and bowed silently to the spiritual spring seven times, and when we opened our eyes again, we were already back outside the dry well.

Then I took Xian'er towards the outer pavilion, and said as I walked: "Do you remember that some time ago, there was a tomb that was buried by a person from the Sect? ”

Xian'er nodded: "Remember, listen to Xiao Geng, didn't you go down to watch?" ”

Me: "I didn't tell you before, but in that tomb I found a beheaded Zhuhuai, and that Zhuhuai seemed to have been suppressed in an instant, and then beheaded in an instant. You have experienced first-hand how powerful Zhuhuai is. When I saw Zhu Huai's corpse, I thought that the person who beheaded it must be a master who has cultivated more than my master. But these days, when I think back to the situation repeatedly, I feel more and more that that person's cultivation is by no means as simple as being higher than my master, to be precise, his cultivation is too high, and my master and him are not on the same level at all. The lifespan of an ordinary person is more than 100 years at best, and in such a short period of time, no matter how talented a person is, no matter how hard he works, it is impossible for him to have such cultivation. He must be an immortal. ”

Xian'er: "You mean, Luo Zhongxing personally went to the tomb?" ”

"It shouldn't be wrong," I responded: "The old Taoist said that Luo Zhongxing was originally unable to enter the Nine Great Tombs, but his reincarnation has been broken, and maybe the Nine Great Tombs have lost their original deterrent power for him." When I arrived, I took these two books and went to find Liang Houzai, and asked him to analyze them, and I went to find Uncle Xia. ”

As I spoke, I stuffed the bamboo slips to Xian'er, and then ran to the lobby opposite the outer pavilion, where Uncle Xia would usually stay if he was in Jisoul Village.

Now, even I can have a premonition that there will be a catastrophe in the Soul Village soon, and Uncle Xia is a master of fortune telling, so he must have noticed some turmoil and came to the Soul Village early to watch the stars.

As soon as I entered the lobby, I saw that Master Xia and Master Zhao were both there, and the two of them were getting together and discussing something fiercely.

When Uncle Zhao saw me, he was surprised: "Youdao, when did you come back?" ”
