Although the flashing red dot didn't look far away, it took Gongsun Sheng a lot of hours to identify the direction in the darkness and move the firewood knife to open the way.
Finally came to the bottom of the flickering red dot, it turned out to be a huge empty cave, the entrance of the cave was overgrown with vines and vines, I think it was less light and fog during the day, and I didn't see clearly.
Gongsun Sheng continued to pick up thin vines and cut them with a firewood knife, gradually splitting a hole that only allowed an adult cat waist to enter. He hesitated for a moment, but still tried his best to get in.
When I went inside, I found that it was bigger than I imagined, and it was even brighter than the stars.
Gongsun Sheng Daqi, tentatively under his feet, groping with his hands, approaching those rays step by step.
When he got closer, he touched the current "stars", and found that the jade agate was coldly like inlaid on a large iron plate, green, red, purple, shiny, shining, I don't know what kind of treasure it was, and it was hidden in the big cave in the deep valley of Erxian Mountain, which was isolated from the world.
He looked around again, and found that the treasure was very large, and the hand was endless, and with the convex and uneven, it could catch up with a huge palace. He even suspected for a moment that he had come to the Senluo Palace of the Enma King.
Suddenly, there was a "pop", and the whole cave suddenly became as bright as day.
Gongsun Sheng couldn't stand the sudden flash of light in the darkness, subconsciously covered his eyes, squatted on the spot, buried his head between his knees, and didn't know what was going on.
After a long time, he heard that there was nothing unusual around him, and there was no change around his body, so he tried to slowly open his eyes and look at the brightened cave.
Everything in front of him was indeed unprecedented for this lay Taoist disciple of the Northern Song Dynasty. I saw a huge and strange-looking "steel palace", leaning into this huge cave that saw no day. Several beams of bright light emanated from the "body" of the "palace", illuminating the entire cave. There are also countless glowing "gems" on the "temple body", which should be the ones I saw when it was dark just now. The corner of the "palace", the "cornice", stretches along the top of the cave to the mouth of the cave, and the cliff rock exposed outside the cave should be the first "red light" that flickered and went off when he was looking for it.
Gongsun Sheng had never seen a rare scene in this world, so he couldn't help but hold his breath and take a closer look at it up and down.
This huge "palace" looks like it is made of steel, mottled with rust, and I don't know how many dynasties and years have passed. There are many traces of fractures in the rock formations next to the "palace", and there are many angular boulders and stones at the stepping place, which proves that the "palace" does not seem to have been built here, but has been forced into the cave from outside. The rock is broken, which shows that this "palace" is abnormally hard.
The place where I was just now was a convex and concave place on the iron wall of the "palace" that looked like a pattern. It was only by touching the concave bracket that the steel behemoth shone brightly.
He re-examined the place he had just touched, and gently cleaned the dirt and debris from it with a branch, gradually revealing a clearer relief-like pattern.
"Huh?" Gongsun Sheng was surprised for a while, and his mouth couldn't help but make a sound.
It turns out that these relief patterns are like a gossip figure, "Qian", "Kun", "Kan", "Li", "Zhen", "Xun", "Gen", "Dui", everything is there, isn't it the Bagua diagram that represents "heaven", "earth", "water", "fire", "thunder", "wind", "mountain" and "ze".
I didn't know which hexagram I touched just now, so that this "palace" flashed such a dazzling bright light.
Wait, isn't that the "separation" hexagram that represents "fire"?
Gongsun Sheng was suspicious, and touched the protrusion of the "away" hexagram as if it was just now, and strange things happened again, and sure enough, the light faded suddenly, leaving the darkness of hope and the "little stars" that flickered and disappeared.
Sure enough!
Gongsun Sheng was overjoyed, and touched the same place again, and the entire cave returned to a state as bright as day.
Baby, what a baby! Gongsun Sheng was like a treasure, forgetting the reason why he was in danger of collecting medicine, falling into this abyss, and not dying in the catastrophe, and jumping up happily. It didn't matter if it was a leap, it seemed to be a foot higher than usual, and I almost hit my head on the precious "palace".
He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move his body drastically.
Gongsun Sheng thought to himself that there were really a lot of strange things encountered today, since it was getting late, there was this bright cave, presumably the beast did not dare to approach, it was better for me to adjust my breath, close my eyes and recuperate, rest for a good night, and then make plans at dawn.
He jumped lightly, jumped onto a high platform in the "palace", put the bundle of firewood behind him and the fairy grass zhi in his arms beside him, sat down with him, maintained a steady posture, closed his eyes, but felt that his breath was long and his internal strength was surging.
Although the feeling of fullness in his abdomen was not as strong as that after eating Xiancao Zhi, he was still not hungry. The hot air flow in his abdomen began to extend horizontally through the veins in his body, and many of the places that he had read before in Taoist classics and books on strengthening the body that he had not been seeking at that time were now clear in his mind step by step.
Taoism emphasizes that Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four images, four elephants give birth to gossip, and gossip gives birth to all things. This is the truth that there is no existence, and there is a living thing, which seems simple, but in fact hides a major mystery. In addition, the sentences of Taoist classics are obscure, Gongsun Sheng's cultivation is still shallow, and it is impossible for Luo Zhenren to explain and guide verbatim, because in the eyes of a lay Taoist disciple, there is not much difference from the Book of Heaven.
And at this moment, Gongsun Sheng's mind is his own three-dimensional image in the horizontal rotation of three hundred and sixty degrees, and then the firewood knife in his hand will split a stump into two, then split two into four, and then cut in the air, four and then become eight, followed by eight wooden blocks in the air lined up in a circle, rotating reincarnation, endlessly, and in the circle of this wooden block, trees, rocks, clear springs, waterfalls, everything gradually pulled away, he and his mother lived in the thatched hut and the master's purple void, Songhexuan jumped in front of him again, the wind and clouds are changing, It presents a complete view of the entire Erxian Mountain.
Then the Erxian Mountain seemed to go back in time, and it was getting shorter and smaller little by little, and then it was still again, as if time was frozen at a certain point in ancient times. At this time, the huge "palace" he found today roared from outside the sky, surrounded by tumbling fires and burning red clouds. With a "boom", the "palace" and the foothills of the deep valley of the two immortal mountains crashed into the rocks and mud, which formed this huge cave. The huge impact force caused the earth to shake, the mountains and rocks to burst, the beasts and birds to fly, and some ancient trees even beep and burn......
Gongsun Sheng woke up sweating profusely, and found that he had fallen asleep unconsciously after meditating, as if he had dreamed a dream for thousands of years. But when he thought about it carefully, this cave, this huge steel "palace", was in the Erxian Mountain where he grew up, and it was exactly the same as in his dream.
Gongsun Sheng looked outside the cave, the stars and moon were still hazy, only the cave was still as bright as day.
He stretched his waist and played a few sets of Taibai Bagua palms, only to feel that his body seemed to have endless strength, and his body was light as if he could fly.
Gongsun Sheng didn't know that the "fairy herb mushroom" he picked was the top grade of Taoist elixir. The effect of folk circulation is only rumored, after all, it is rare in the world, and there are not many people who are fortunate enough to take it. And Gongsun Sheng accidentally got this wild "fairy grass mushroom", and it is the best product for making a panacea, hundreds of years of mountain rain and dew, the essence of heaven and earth gathered in this precious one. Because Xiancao Zhi is extremely picky about the environment, even since then, such a heavenly and earthly spiritual creature may have become extinct in the world.
And when he took it, he was shocked into a cold sweat because of falling off a deep cliff, and the sweat glands discharged six or seven tenths of the toxins and wastes in the body. At this time, the tonic of fairy herb mushroom is like making tea in an empty bowl and pouring rice into an empty bowl, and you can take as much nutrient essence as you want, without wasting a penny.
His whole body recovered quickly, even exceeding the state before the cliff fell many levels, and his physical strength, judgment, memory, endurance, and explosiveness have all undergone earth-shaking changes. Even the rest time is much less than before. Although it was still dark outside the cave, Gongsun Sheng was as refreshed as if he had slept for several days.
He pondered that he would wait for dawn to go outside to hunt some birds and beasts to pick wild fruits to satisfy his hunger, after all, it was not difficult for a man from the mountains to survive in this deep valley.
What he wanted to do most was how to climb out of the deep valley and return to his home on the other side of Erxian Mountain. After all, there is still an old mother to raise, and if she doesn't return for many days, let the old mother be worried.
Involuntarily, he remembered the convex and concave gossip pattern he had discovered before.
Since the "Li" hexagram, which represents "fire", can control the light of the "palace", other elements must also have other effects. Thinking of this verse, he jumped to the place where he had repeatedly touched before, took a stick, hunched over on the ground and began to write and draw.
This Bagua diagram is the most mysterious, in which eight directions represent the eight trigrams, the four directions represent the four elephants, the long and short horizontal lines are called "Yao", each hexagram has three Yao, representing "heaven", "earth", "people". And one long line of this line is called "yang", and two short lines are called "yin". In the middle of the gossip is the Taiji diagram, which symbolizes that everything in the world has two poles: yin and yang. The two Bagua diagrams can be superimposed into eight eight or sixty-four hexagrams, and the position of the middle Taiji diagram can be rotated arbitrarily, which is really ever-changing and endless.
According to his peculiar experience in the past two days, and the attributes represented by each of these gossips, Gongsun Sheng listed dozens of combinations of hexagrams. After thinking and calculating again and again, when he was sure that it was correct, he stood again in the convex and concave pattern of the "palace".
He first stretched out his hand and pressed a hexagram of "Gendui", which took the meaning of "opening with his hand" and extended to "the meaning of opening and closing".
A miracle happened!
