Chapter 160: Three Parallel Rivers
Back at the hotel, Jade Whisk and Iron Shoes were already packed and ready to leave.
"I heard Master Mingjing say, if he counts his fate, there will be a chance in the future." Jade Whisk greeted him.
"If you don't die if you fight a snake, you will have consequences." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and shook his head, although several Xuanmen masters had fought before, they had never besieged anyone, and this time it must have made the bronze armor anxious.
"Let's get out of here first, I killed a devil's general." Jade Fu said and threw an official knife.
Zuo Dengfeng took it, out of the sheath and looked at it, the steel mouth was very good, and the workmanship was also very exquisite, which was a killing weapon and a handicraft.
"You can carry the bedding and blankets." Zuo Dengfeng glanced at the jade whisk, turned the knife into the sheath, and picked up the wooden box, and Thirteen jumped up and sat on his shoulder.
"Amitabha, I'll carry it." Iron Shoes saw that he was empty-handed, and hurriedly rushed to carry the bedding.
"You carry something else." Zuo Dengfeng walked to the side of the wine cabinet and picked up a few bottles of liquor, and then swept out, followed by Jade Whisk and Iron Shoes.
Half an hour later, the three of them came to the wooden house where the equipment was stored before, Zuo Dengfeng made sure that the wooden box was not opened and put the iron shoes on the back, the three of them rose and fell, looked west, and left the official knife in the wooden house by Zuo Dengfeng, which he promised Ji Sha.
Iron Shoes did not complain because he was carrying a heavy wooden box, which seemed to him to be a call for a capable person to work hard.
Dozens of miles ahead, Zuo Dengfeng turned around and looked back at the most prosperous city in China, the greatest happiness in life is to share happiness with relatives and friends, if there are no relatives and friends, even if you are in heaven, you will be lonely, not to mention that Shanghai Beach is not a paradise, the prosperity here hides the dirty, the laughter here hides hypocrisy, Zuo Dengfeng does not like here.
The destination of this trip is in the southern part of Sichuan and the northern part of Yunnan in the parallel area of the three rivers, located in the westernmost part of China, and they are currently in the easternmost part of China, to get to the destination need to cross China from east to west, passing through Zhejiang, Anhui, Hubei, Yucheng, Sichuan, this journey is more than 2,000 kilometers, even if the three of them are full of spiritual energy, it took a full week to rush to the place where Sichuan borders Yunnan.
Seven days later in the afternoon, the three of them came to a small town located on the bank of the Jinsha River, Yunnan was called a wilderness in ancient times, even now, the degree of civilization here is not high, the so-called town is only a village composed of dozens of shops, the street is paved with gravel, the perennial trampling smoothed the edges and corners of the stone, the whole street presents a kind of bumpy smoothness, the houses are gray bricks and stones, low and wide flat, with a strong local style, there are no hotels, no hotels, and even inns and restaurants, The three of them could only stay in the house of a merchant native, who was not very hospitable, but they knew the ocean and gold bars.
The three of them were exhausted from the long journey, and after settling down, Iron Shoes sat and slept cross-legged, Zuo Dengfeng and Yufu left the town and walked to the south bank of the river, Thirteen followed them.
When he came to the river, Zuo Dengfeng looked at the surging river and frowned silently, the river was turbid, the water was turbulent, and the amount of water did not decrease in winter.
"Originally, there was no dry period in the Sanjiang Basin." After a long time, Zuo Dengfeng let out a long sigh, before that, he had always thought that as long as there were big rivers, there would be a dry period, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Tell me about the specifics." Yufu asked questions, and Zuo Dengfeng didn't open too much on the way here, so she didn't know the specific plans and things Zuo Dengfeng was looking for on this trip.
"The Nu River in the west, the Lancang River in the middle, and the Jinsha River where we are currently located, these three rivers flow from north to south, arranged in the shape of 'Sichuan', and the word 'and' in the parallel flow of the three rivers does not mean that the three rivers merge here, but that the three rivers flow side by side here, before that, I always thought that they converged here, if it is a confluence, it is easy to say, we just need to find the intersection, but they do not intersect, so our search scope will be quadrupled." Zuo Dengfeng said that the three rivers flow in parallel in the shape of the word 'Sichuan', and they have to find not only the two banks, but also the two slender areas in the middle of the three major rivers, so there is a saying that the search range has been quadrupled.
Zuo Dengfeng paused and there was no interface, and she knew that Zuo Dengfeng hadn't finished speaking.
"There were eight big vassal states that followed Jiang Ziya's eastward expedition, Pu and Ji were in this area, what they had back then should be the water yang rat and the water yin pig, what we are looking for is this yin pig, three thousand years ago thirteen had seen that animal, at that time it was more than ten meters long, it was a big guy, after so many years, its size will definitely grow." Zuo Dengfeng spoke again
"How big is that squirrel?" Jade Whisk asked casually.
"Thirteen, how big is that mouse?" Zuo Dengfeng looked at Thirteen when he heard this, and he didn't ask about the size of the mouse in the Xishen Inn, because that thing belonged to Yang and was not his target.
Thirteen jumped on a river stone next to him when he heard this, Zuo Dengfeng couldn't help laughing when he saw this, this was a laugh of schadenfreude, because the mouse was very small, Fujisaki and the others would definitely not be able to find it, Fujisaki was unlucky, and he was happy.
"We are currently in the area where the three rivers are divided, the Jinsha River has been diverted to the east, and the Nu River has been diverted to the southwest, so it is correct to take this as the starting point of the search, and the search range must at least extend north to the junction of Qinghai and Tibetan provinces, that is, the approximate source of the river, a distance of about 2,000 miles." Zuo Dengfeng laughed and explained again.
"Have you ever thought that the three of us will look for it separately?" Jade Fu asked.
"Searching separately can save time, but if there is an accident, you can't support each other, you can't be separated too far, you can stay up to 20 miles between each other, and you can search for it along the river." Zuo Dengfeng said.
"What to look for?" Jade Whisk asked again.
"An abandoned city from 3,000 years ago." Zuo Dengfeng said.
"It's a pity that I don't understand their language, otherwise I can find out the news when I encounter the village, and the secret anecdotes that have been passed down from generation to generation may also hide some clues." Yufu shook his head and said, the southwest region is even more closed than their Hunan, there are almost no Han people, all the languages spoken are ethnic minorities, even Yufu can't understand it, Zuo Dengfeng and Tie Shoe The two northern men are even more blind to listen to thunder.
"Sometimes more clues are not better, too many clues may mislead us, after all, after 3,000 years of false rumors, many things have changed their taste, it is better for us to find it ourselves." Zuo Dengfeng waved his hand and spoke.
"It's okay, let's look for the abandoned ancient city." Yufu nodded in agreement with Zuo Dengfeng's opinion.
"Don't limit yourself to the ancient city, but pay attention to any unusual places, its home may be in this area." Zuo Dengfeng stretched out his finger and pointed at the thirteenth who were looking at the river in a trance.
"How do you know?" Jade Whisk lowered her voice.
"I can't say a word, so I'm paying attention." Zuo Dengfeng smiled, and turned to leave the riverside and walked back, it was late, the temperature was very low, Zuo Dengfeng was worried that Yufu would catch a cold.
"You've been out of breath lately, do you want to divide yin and yang?" Jade Whisk followed Zuo Dengfeng.
"It should be tonight." Zuo Dengfeng nodded and said, the cultivators who have survived the tribulation are artificially one point of yin and yang, and then there are two small degrees of cultivation to improve, respectively, two points of yin and yang and three points of yin and yang, jade whisk, gold needles, copper armor, and iron shoes are all in the stage of one point of yin and yang, the silver crown should be two points of yin and yang, and after three points of yin and yang, the yin and yang aura in the body is completely pure, and then the yin and yang aura is forcibly fused in the body, this process is called the harmony of the dragon and tiger, if the yin and yang are perfectly fused, you can fly in vain, but from ancient times to the present, the three points of yin and yang have been rare, the ascended immortals only appear in mythology.
"The improvement rate of your aura cultivation is several times that of ordinary people, and the magic of teaching is indeed mysterious." Jade Fu sighed heartily.
"There are some things you don't know, the Yin and Yang Life and Death Recipe I practice is indeed a teaching technique, but my Qi cultivation method is a method of intercepting teaching." Zuo Dengfeng said with a smile, although he didn't regard Yufu as a lover, he already regarded her as a bosom friend.
"Where did it come from?" Yufu asked curiously, when can she ask what questions, she naturally has a sense of proportion in her heart.
"I have to thank you for that." Zuo Dengfeng slowed down and waited for the jade whisk to approach.
"Oh." Yufu looked puzzled.
"When I was in the Northeast, you told me that only the Shaolin Temple's marrow washing sutra can restrain the yin and yang in my body, so I ran to the Shaolin Temple to steal the marrow washing sutra, I didn't expect to be discovered by them, the two monks persevered and chased me for a night, and as a result, I was chased to an abandoned Taoist temple of interception, where thirteen found a secret room, there was a young Taoist in the secret room, he asked me to stay outside the secret room for half an hour, I agreed, and then he passed me a style of qi gathering instructions." Zuo Dengfeng briefly told what happened.
"What's that Taoist name?" Yufu asked curiously.
"I don't know." Zuo Dengfeng answered truthfully.
"Is the Taoist temple you mentioned in Jiangbei?" Yufu asked.
"How do you know?" Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked.
"There is only one sect in Henan called Ziyang Temple, which is said to be practiced by the art of contemplating qi and the technique of controlling qi, and this sect gradually died out in the last years of the Ming Dynasty." Jade Whisk nodded and said.
"How do you know in such detail?" Zuo Dengfeng asked rhetorically.
"Because they are the last Taoist temple to die out of the sect, and they have lasted the longest, and they call the three points of yin and yang after the tribulation as light purple aura, purple qi, and purple qi peak." Yufu said that the Chenzhou faction also has a history of thousands of years, and the classics in the sect are very well preserved.
"It's indeed this sect." Zuo Dengfeng nodded, and the young Taoist priest once said, "The light purple aura actually claims to be a master, the Buddhism is in decline, and the Taoism is not." ”
"Before the Sui Dynasty, Yuqing expounded the teachings, Taiqing Taoism, and Shangqing interception, which were the coexistence and prosperity of the three religions, I don't know why the three religions suddenly declined after the Sui Dynasty, and a large number of Xiuzhen classics were missing. The jade whisk is sensitive.
"You want to cultivate the true path of enlightenment and eternal life." Zuo Dengfeng frowned and asked.
"That is the long-cherished wish of all cultivators in the world." Yu Fu said with a smile.
"Hahahaha." Zuo Dengfeng suddenly burst out laughing when he heard this.
"What are you laughing at?" Yufu had never seen Zuo Dengfeng so happy.
"Guess what." Zuo Dengfeng sold a pass, before this he had been thinking about how to repay Yufu's selfless help, at this moment he thought of it, the yin and yang life and death recipe is an ancient testament, concentrate on cultivation to obtain immortality, and it is just for women to cultivate the true method, if the six yin inner pill can't save the witch heart, before he dies, he will write out the yin and yang life and death recipe silently and give it to Cui Jinyu,
