Chapter 230: The Dragon Roars and the Tiger Roars
"Can't do it?"
Jiang Xian was stunned and didn't know what he meant.
"Yes, I can't do it." Xu Zhenren swayed slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Think about it carefully, starting from Patriarch Zhang Daoling and ending with Patriarch Zhang Ji, the age of those heavenly masters?" ”
How old is the Celestial Master?
A hint of thought appeared in Jiang Xian's eyes, and he said carefully: "Most of them have a long life?" ”
"That's right......" Xu Zhenren said slowly: "Heavenly Master is in the same vein, and he has a long life. Except for Zhang Lu, who surrendered to Cao Cao, most of the heavenly masters during this period lived a long life, and those who died around the age of eighty were considered young, and those who were over 100 years old were more than one palm. ”
Jiang Xian's face was solemn, such a life expectancy, even in modern times, is considered a long life, not to mention the average life expectancy is only forty years old in ancient times.
And the Heavenly Master's lineage, such a long life history, has lasted for thousands of years, and it has to be said to be a miracle.
"But......" A complicated look flashed in Xu Zhenren's eyes: "The twenty-eighth generation Heavenly Master Zhang Dunfu only lived to be fifty-three years old, and he had no heirs. ”
"And his nephew, the twenty-ninth generation Heavenly Master Zhang Jingrui, lived to be fifty-two years old, and he also had no heirs."
"After this, the Heavenly Master lineage has almost never appeared before.
Jiang Xian's eyes flashed, and he said thoughtfully: "What do you mean by being old...... The Zhang family went to repair the foot of Longhu Mountain in the past dynasties, and was affected by the mountain, so there will be no heirs in the twenty-eighth, twenty-ninth and twenty-ninth generations of heavenly masters? ”
"Among these two generations of Heavenly Masters, some people have noticed that something is wrong, and they feel that they can't complete the patriarch's explanation with the Heavenly Master alone, so they cultivated Mao Ziyuan?"
Xu Zhenren nodded slowly, stood up and looked at the morning light through the window: "This is just my guess, but in the current situation, this is the most reasonable situation." ”
"According to the records of the mosquito-free village, if it weren't for the talent of Zhang Ji's ancestor, he caught up with the giant beast and died of aging...... The situation in the mosquito-free village alone is not something that the Heavenly Master can handle. ”
Jiang Xian nodded silently, Zhang Jixian inherited the position of Heavenly Master at the age of nine, and became famous all over the world when he was a teenager, and he was one of the four great Thunder Law Grandmasters.
After counting the romantic figures in the history of Taoism, his talent and talent are firmly in the forefront.
Even such a character, after solving the hidden dangers below the mosquito-free village, suddenly feathered at the age of thirty-six.
You can imagine how dangerous it was at the beginning.
"Although Mao Ziyuan took away the white lotus lamp made by Tianwai Baoyu, he also did some good things." Xu Zhenren stroked his beard, and a complicated look appeared on his face: "Whether he let the disciples of the White Lotus Sect act, or as you said before, the layout attracted the people of Ba Sipa, after all, it did not let the crisis under the Great Shangqing Palace break out." ”
Jiang Xian nodded, no matter what his feelings were for Mao Ziyuan, he had to admit this.
Although I don't know what is under the Dragon and Tiger Mountain, according to the caution shown by the ancestors and the Heavenly Masters of the past dynasties, in the case of the thirty generations of Heavenly Masters suddenly feathered, it is too late to find someone to inherit related matters. Without Mao Ziyuan, the situation below would only gradually deteriorate until the closure was broken......
Even if it doesn't sweep through the living beings of Kyushu as the patriarch said, it will form a huge disaster.
"By the way, real people......" He also stood up, showing a trace of doubt on his face: "You said before that Rong Wu worships giants and worships their gods. This trip to the mosquito-free village has many traces and moments of giants, which really shows that Rong Wu is sacrificing giants and taking giants as gods......"
"But...... According to records, in the hall where the giant's palm was placed, there were countless corpse insects, and those corpse worms were even trying to manipulate the giant's palm! ”
He was puzzled and said: "Even if it is customary to divide the corpse giant and bury it separately, isn't it really blasphemy to let the corpse worm manipulate it?" ”
"And the blasphemy ceremony in Zhouhu Village before...... I always feel that the relationship between Rong Wu and 'Pan' is not so simple. ”
Xu Zhenren stroked his beard, was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Since there are stone carvings and murals, of course, the previous picture scroll cannot be used as evidence alone. I don't know much about Rong Wu, and judging from the current evidence, they really don't look like simple believers and gods. ”
"There have always been very few written records of ancient events, and the authenticity of them has yet to be verified, and there will even be a lot of metaphors."
"If you want to understand the specific situation, you can only continue to explore and discover these areas where historical traces are hidden, and continue to analyze and study."
He paced to the window and looked at the newborn sun in the early morning: "Before this year, who would have thought that Noah's Ark would be in China. The source of biblical mythology is here? ”
Jiang Xian smiled, yes, if it weren't for Yun Mengze's appearance, who would have known that such an amazing truth was hidden in history?
"But ......"
Xu Zhenren's voice paused slightly, turned his head to look at him and said, "Since the ancestor refined the Tianwai Treasure Jade back then, and the lotus flower above can reveal the incomplete map, then the integration of the two will definitely reveal more information." ”
As he spoke, his robe was raised, his palm opened, and a crystal jade lotus divided into three layers appeared in it. Under the sunlight, the traces like clouds of smoke seem to be circulating. Refracted with brilliant brilliance.
Jiang Xian's cuffs flicked, and the crystal jade pillar surrounded by nine dragons appeared in his hand.
The faint brilliance flowed and flickered on it, and the layers of clouds and mist seemed to be rolling in the sea of clouds in the Yellow Mountain, reflecting the scene on the jade pillar as if it had come to life.
Lotus flowers and jade pillars appeared in the hall at the same time, and the same crystal jade body, with a little red color, also had clouds and mist against the background.
Anyone who looks at it will feel that they are one and the same.
"White Lotus Lantern ......" Xu Zhenren showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and walked to Jiang Xian's side in a few steps. looked at the threaded plug in the middle of the jade pillar in the other party's hand, looked at the hole under the lotus flower in his hand, and reached out to take it.
Jiang Xian's eyes froze, and he couldn't help but ripple in his heart as he watched the pair of somewhat old hands grasp the jade pillar steadily.
Yesterday he asked Lin Ruoxue to try, but today Xu Zhenren didn't show up to see God with it!
"Only when I touch it for the first time will I see God? Or is it ...... My god has drained this power? ”
If it's really because I'm different from others, then what makes me different......
Doubts arose in his heart, and a trace of conjecture vaguely appeared in his mind.
The jade pillar and the lotus flower merged, Xu Zhenren's hands slowly twisted, and soon, the two fit completely and turned into a real white lotus lamp. At the same time, Jiang Xian, who was still thinking in his mind, suddenly changed his expression.
The lines on the white lotus lamp are alive!
Originally, it was just like a flowing cloud and mist, but at this moment, it really moved, and it really flipped and turbulent like a sea of clouds!
The clouds and mist are turbulent, the lotus flowers are shining, and all kinds of light are circulating in them.
And in the jade pillar below this, the scales on the dragon's body shook in unison, and their beards trembled and swayed. The slightly open dragon's mouth makes an opening and closing style, as if a real dragon is swimming through the clouds and mist, making a high-pitched dragon roar.
At this moment, an early morning breeze blew from the window and was blowing onto the white lotus lamp. The next moment, there was a sound at the scales, and in the opening and closing dragon's mouth, a clear long groan suddenly erupted!
Ang ——!
The high-pitched Qingyue voice instantly spread from the main hall to all directions, resounding throughout the Heavenly Master's Mansion in a few breaths.
The hand of the Taoist boy who was pulling the rope stopped; The Taoist priest who was doing the morning class put down the scriptures in his hand; The body of the old man who was boxing in the back mountain suddenly stopped...... They raised their heads and closed their eyes to listen to the strange sound.
In a pavilion, the thin Taoist who had seen God with Jiang Xian before was stunned, and then his expression changed, and a few words suddenly appeared in his mind: Every morning, the breeze blows, and the sound of the clear and high-pitched sound rises, enveloping many courtyards.
The mountain of dragons and tigers has its own dragons and tigers.
"The dragon roars and the tiger roars, and the sound of heaven determines the world...... The dragon chanting heavenly sound told in the classics! The Taoist's breathing couldn't help but be a little shorter, this is only recorded in the essays of the predecessors more than a thousand years ago, and the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain in the later dynasties have many doubts about this.
I didn't expect ...... It reappeared today!
Jiang Xian's figure flashed in his mind, he closed his eyes, and the complicated look on his face turned into relief: "Covering the mountains and seas...... Senior brother, your choice is not wrong. ”
In the main hall, Jiang Xian looked at the faint shadows that appeared above Xu Zhenren's palm, and his eyes showed a sudden expression: "On the day of Dancheng, the dragon and tiger appeared...... It turned out that it was about this dragon and tiger! ”
"The so-called dragon roaring and tiger roaring constantly also stems from this white lotus lantern ......"
Xu Zhenren silently looked at the shallow dragon and tiger phantom above, and listened to the sound of the dragon's roar mixed with the tiger's roar, even the ancient well's waveless eyes had a trace of ripples.
This is a national treasure, a national treasure like no other in the world!
But it is such a national treasure, after Zhang Jixian, successive generations of holders finally put it back to the mosquito-free village.
Among them are not only virtuous people, but also greedy politicians.
But they all made the same choice, and the implicit meaning is intriguing.
Clearing away the distracting thoughts in his heart, he turned his head to look at Jiang Xian: "Is the lamp oil ready?" ”
Jiang Xian nodded and took out a jar, which was the only jar of corpse oil he had left. At the same time as handing over the jar to Xu Zhenren, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face: Xu Zhenren said last time, 'Tongtianfu Changming lamp oil is really not good, maybe it would be better to burn it with corpse oil?' 'It's really changed this time!
Is this a prophecy from a real person?
Xu Zhenren glanced at him unhappily: "These corpse oils may not be enough, maybe you need to get materials nearby for a while?" ”
"It should be enough, it should be enough......" Jiang Xian laughed dryly, and his face suddenly became serious.
Xu Zhenren waved his long sleeves, and his robe swayed suddenly, and a gust of wind rose from the ground, instantly sweeping around.
In an instant, the doors and windows in the main hall closed one after another, and the roller blinds hanging above fell one after another, and the early morning light was instantly obscured. The bright hall fell into darkness in an instant, and only the white lotus lamp emitted a faint glow.
The white lotus lamp was placed on the table, and the corpse oil was poured into the jade lotus.
Cha......
A flash of fire appeared in Xu Zhenren's other hand, and then fell into the lamp.
