Chapter 116: Divine Thought
Zheng Yan seemed to have fallen into a dream, déjà vu and clueless, just because this dream was so vague that he didn't have a reason to think of the experience of going to school in the early autumn morning, maybe it wasn't an experience, but he was just thinking about it.
That day, the whole Luoyang City was full of fog, maybe only a little lighter than the one made by Yu Xiuxian's sisters on the post road a few years ago, but it was also a finger that could not be seen, fortunately, no one did anything in terms of direction sensing, relying on the familiarity Zheng Yan went out of the Guogong Mansion and walked through Xiushui Street, although he was cautious and did not dare to walk quickly, he finally arrived at the Phoenix Bridge, as long as he crossed the Phoenix Bridge Road, it was easy to go, the north of the Phoenix Bridge belonged to the boundary of the Imperial City, the streets and houses were neat and clean, and Zheng Yan could walk to Zongxue with his eyes closed;
It's just that when crossing the Phoenix Bridge, I don't know why I suddenly want to lie on the railing to see what the water looks like, probably thinking that the river will rise in the early morning of winter, so I want to verify whether so much fog is also rising from the river, at that time I was still young, seven or eight years old, and in the market, I heard women tell their children about the Phoenix Bridge, such as children can not lie on the bridge to watch the river, otherwise the soul will be hooked away, and the river will be lost and can not find the way home, so at that time the mysterious bridge was still full of awe, but it was also the age of knowing that a man should be bold, maybe also rebellious, after hesitating and struggling, he still touched the railing.
Touching the railing and carefully leaning out, he took a deep breath before looking down at the river, but he didn't see anything, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he became bolder, so he just lay on the railing and tried his best to open his eyes to see, just a glance, and suddenly the world swirled, as if he had fallen into the river at once.
I didn't have time to shout and do anything, so I fell into the river, but I soon found that there was no cold river around me, and after calming down, I found that I was standing in a fog, there was no river, no Phoenix Bridge, and no familiar breath of Luoyang City.
"Silent contemplation, thinking for thousands of years, quietly moving, seeing thousands of miles, this body is a boat, crossing yin and yang",
Suddenly a voice sounded, there was no place to come from, no direction, no old and young, no men and women, Zheng Yan subconsciously walked forward, just stepped on the air and began to fall rapidly, there was no fog around him, but there were lights and shadows, as if the glow suddenly pierced the clouds, and the light and shadow passed quickly, the practice at that time was too poor and the eyesight could not keep up with the light and shadow flying away, I only felt that there were thousands of colors, as if someone had something and rivers and mountains.
Just when his spirit was about to disperse because of the speed was too fast, he suddenly felt a big hand grasp his shoulder, and the next moment all the light and shadow disappeared, still in the fog, with a solid bridge deck under his feet, a railing and a phoenix statue in front of him, and a strange grandfather beside him.
Grandpa went to the morning court and happened to pass by the Phoenix Bridge, saw a child standing by the bridge in a daze, and then looked at it and found that it was Zheng Yan who went out in advance, and then got out of the car and walked over, and took a closer look and found that Zheng Yan's soul was not in the body, only the spirit that turned into a line extended from the body to the water, the grandfather was naturally shocked and afraid, but after all, he was used to seeing strong winds and waves, and after observing for a while, he finally seized the opportunity to pull Zheng Yan's soul back into his body.
The grandfather and grandson got into the carriage and told the story in detail, and the grandfather wondered why the New Year's money on his chest did not react when his soul left his body, and he took it out and checked it again and found nothing, and no one mentioned it again after that. Now Zheng Yan felt that he might be in the same situation as he was at that time again, and his soul left his body and went to an unknown place.
"The rules are empty, and the engraving is invisible",
That's right!
"Between the chantings, the words of the conclusive conclusion are spoken, and before the eyebrows are raised, the color of the wind and thunder is soothed."
This seems to be the content of an article about doing learning, but now it sounds like it is about the cultivation of "spells", "divine thoughts", "spirits"?
Zheng Yan continued to listen attentively with doubts, but after listening to it, he felt that there was something he had overlooked, the voice, the intonation, the choice of words and sentences, etc., the voice was not right! This is not the sound heard by the ear, and it is not right, the sound that the soul feels after leaving the body is naturally not heard by the ear, it is the voice that rings directly in the heart, thinking of this, Zheng Yan tried to close his heart, and it really became a silence, so he is indeed in the soul of the body now.
After confirming this point, Zheng Yan opened his heart again, and then he was even more puzzled, why did his divine soul leave the body? Didn't he sleep on the bed? Could it be that the loss of too much essence caused the spirit to weaken the restraint of the divine soul, thus causing the divine soul to wander outside the body? Alas, Jingshu, this girl didn't give a look, and so on! That's not right, there were a few times when I was in the mansion before, when the cultivation essence was almost exhausted, and there was no such thing, not to mention that I am now much stronger than before, whether it is my soul or spirit, it makes no sense that this situation is happening now, can it be said that I was deliberately withdrawn? What happened to Jingshu? Was it controlled by someone? Has Yuanxian already attacked Shengyang City?
The more Zheng Yan thought about it, the more worried he became, Xingwei and Dugu Takihyun were still in that demon refining platform, for something as useful as a spirit Yuanxian had no reason not to possess it, what should the people who interviewed and practiced there be manipulated there? Will it be arbitrarily manipulated by Yuanxian? Damn, I didn't expect the most worrying thing to happen, Xingye Xingshuang and what happened to them? Now that they have been sucked away by others, if they can't escape, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat, no matter how powerful Xingye is, he is not the opponent of the Heavenly Demon or even the Ancestral Demon, what about the people of the clan?
Although there were many worries, Zheng Yan soon knew that he couldn't do anything now, where was this? Or was it just a dream? If it was really a place where the spirit was sucked into one place, then why did it sound and feel the same as the Phoenix Bridge that time? But wasn't he in Shengyang City now? Could it really just be a dream?
"You're not in a dream, it's unbounded",
That voice sounded in his heart again, Zheng Yan couldn't help but feel a little helpless, he could actually see through what he was thinking!
The mist shook suddenly, and soon began to retreat around, but when the wind and smoke were clear, the scene in front of him still didn't bring much clarity to Zheng Yan, because this world is really monotonous, it is simply synonymous with monotony, half dark and half light, and there is nothing else, and Zheng Yan himself happens to be standing at the junction of light and darkness, half of his body is in the dark and half of the light, and he doesn't feel it at all if he wants to move.
"Totem belief has been throughout the Wuzhu era",
The voice sounded again It was just a confusion for Zheng Yan to hear, anyway, this person knew what he was thinking, if he wanted to explain, he should have said,
"They have fulfilled their promises, and we will do our part",
The man apparently didn't mean to explain,
"Your Excellency, why don't you deign to show up, let's talk?",
Zheng Yan was still confused and couldn't help but ask tentatively, but he couldn't speak the next moment,
I saw a lot of people walking in the light, young people, wearing all kinds of clothes, men and women, judging from the clothes and accessories, they were actually from different dynasties and different eras, ghosts?
Without any expression or any communication, the two groups of people walked into Zheng Yan's body without a trace of breath, Zheng Yan suddenly felt that all kinds of pictures were coming, no! It can't be like this! His soul and spirit will be crushed! It's like a large number of divine thoughts suddenly pouring in, the key is that these divine thoughts seem to be quite strong, and Zheng Yan has no choice but to stick to his heart, not to resist and not to accept.
"This is the junction of life and death, but also the junction of yin and yang, the place opened up by our predecessors of the witch clan, wizards may die unexpectedly when studying witchcraft, at that time there was no underworld and no reincarnation, many wizards did not want to dissipate between heaven and earth, so they created such a place, in fact, it is not accurate to say 'place', because there is no time and no space here, only entrance and no exit",
The last young man in brown linen stood in the light and whispered, Zheng Yan nodded, "And then?" Although his face was calm, his heart was already turbulent, and it didn't matter about time and space! What kind of existence is this? There is no exit? Can't get out!
The young man tilted his head, probably thinking, "In addition to the wizards, there are also the souls of the dead who have undergone special sacrifices, but they are forcibly teleported in, otherwise the souls will be scattered after the sacrifice, and the witch who created this place encourages everyone to enter here after death, promising that one day they will be guided, on the condition that we will continue to improve this place until it is incorporated into reincarnation, so that we can also enter reincarnation",
Zheng Yan smiled bitterly and said, "You mean that I came here after being sacrificed?"
The young man nodded and shook his head, "There were originally forty-eight entrances here, that is, corresponding to the twelve ancestral altars and thirty-six altars of the Wu clan, except for the four entrances, there were gods and souls coming in from time to time, and the others were already dead, and most of the ones who came in were sacrificial gods, so you should indeed be a sacrifice, but you are the most special one, the one we have been waiting for, and you and we were not ready for the last hurried farewell",
Zheng Yan thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Lead?",
This time the young man only nodded,
Zheng Yan finally had a glimmer of hope in his heart, "So you can go out?"
"Please", the young man bowed deeply and went directly into Zheng Yan's body,
......
"Sir, senior, uncle, ancestor, you can tell me how to get out!",
No one answered.
Zheng Yan looked up to the sky and sighed, I don't know how many years I stayed here, was it because I was too eager to get out or was I finally stupid? Do you want to let go and ask? Or forget it, if the flood bursts the embankment, it must be dead and lifeless, so then look for it yourself? Where to find it? Wait, he said that the entrance is connected to the altar, that is to say, he entered here on the Phoenix Bridge because he broke into the altar, is the Phoenix Bridge an altar or is there an altar under the bridge? Phoenix Temple! I remember that the Phoenix Bridge was indeed built with the stones of the Phoenix Temple, obediently, the people at that time would not have demolished the altar of others to build the bridge, right?
Totem belief throughout the Wuzhu era, Zheng Yan couldn't help chewing on the words of the young man, before starting from Luoyang to this side all the way to hear the news of the world's large-scale excavation of totem relics, so that in fact, what people really want to explore should be the content of the Wuzhu era, witchcraft? Witchcraft contains a lot of content, spells or blessings;Rune formations,It should have some origin with the current but it is absolutely very different.,These days, you can see some residual runes around the underground palace;In addition to these, there seems to be Gu magic and beasts or something.,But it's said to be something contained in the blessing.,And some people think it's the lowest thing in witchcraft;
There is also the elixir of immortality, yes, the herbal formula, which is also the most talked about thing in the Wuzhu era, but He Jun said that the so-called elixir of immortality has great restrictions, and the conditions and costs of use are also very harsh, but I think that few people should know about it now, and it is not surprising that it is also hearsay that this elixir of immortality is the elixir of life, and it is not surprising that it is rushed.
Thinking that wizards often slay phoenixes and dragons, and gods and foreign objects such as dragons and phoenixes were the objects of worship of mortals at that time, such a situation is actually compatible and coexisting, no, it should be a matter of severity in the process, or as some people think, the witches and wizards have been completely above all beings for a long time, and they replaced the gods and demons after the end of the era of gods and demons to become the supreme masters of the world, so how did they come to be? Is it really produced from among mortals through the Chosen One? Or add the bloodline inheritance that people speculate?
Being able to create something that has nothing to do with time and space, that is, completely beyond the rules set by heaven and earth, is not the great avenue pursued by monks today, at least the universe and the universe are still the main content of the avenue, although not all, and the avenue is still very vague except for the universe, and no one has ever really proposed a specific state or object.
Thinking of this, Zheng Yan naturally became curious about the origin of the Wu Clan, maybe knowing this, he would be able to understand this place, but he didn't seem to be able to transcend the restrictions imposed on him by the Heavenly Dao on Yu and Zhou no matter what.
I remember that time on the Phoenix Bridge, the grandfather said that he saw that there was a line formed of spiritual power to maintain his body and soul, spiritual power? The laws don't treat each other, and they can't even think about it... The rules are empty, the engraving is invisible, oh, the gods are extreme, the polarization is not stopped, the minimization is great, and the iteration is extreme...
The next moment, Zheng Yan turned around to face the darkness, and then turned to face the light, and so on and so forth, until it turned into an electric light, just like when Deng Nan turned into electricity, but at this time, this electric light kept shuttling back and forth between the dark and the light, until it turned into a line because the speed was too fast, and the line disappeared.
A sandwich road leading to the palace, the original tall vermilion walls on both sides of the wall now looked more and more heavy and oppressive in this dark night, and the cold wind of early spring shook the still sparse branches rustling, adding countless bleakness to this deep sandwich road;
A tall and graceful figure, seemingly dressed in white, walked slowly, without a trace of breath, and the middle-aged eunuch Chang Gui on duty breathed unconsciously stagnant,
"With the gift of Father-in-law, I need to meet Your Majesty",
A soft but gentle voice sounded, Chang Gui woke up suddenly, only then did he realize that the woman had come closer, Tian Lai, is this the sound of heaven that those officials who have read poetry and books say?
"Let the girl run away in vain, I'm afraid I won't see Your Majesty tonight",
It's Lord Li Chuncheng, the commander of the inner chamberlain!
Chang Gui hurriedly knelt on the ground, his head did not dare to raise in the slightest, he guarded his heart and body and remained silent, but he never heard the woman's response, and he couldn't help but start worrying about her again, and kept muttering in his heart, "Be respectful to Lord Li"...
"There is nothing to keep secret about the girl, Your Majesty is not in the palace, nor is she in the capital, but Your Majesty left a message when he went out, saying that please rest assured that the girl is."
There was still no response, but the woman had already left.
Chang Gui's back was already covered with sweat, for fear that this woman would annoy Lord Li, I really can't imagine that, but His Majesty is not in the palace?
"Chang Gui, you are here for the first time today, so you will act according to the first-class rules",
Li Chuncheng has already left, but the words when he left are still echoing in Chang Gui's ears, there are three levels of rules in the palace, and each level corresponds to a different degree of confidentiality, the first class is the highest, which means that he must rot in his stomach tonight, and no one can say anything except His Majesty.
