Chapter 225: Lotus Pond
Walking along the gravel path at your feet, you can see a simple and desolate gate of the nunnery in the distance, which must be the legendary Wild Desire Temple.
There is a river not far from Mentingqian, and there is an old wooden bridge covered with dead vines on the river, and if you want to enter the Wild Desire Temple, you have to step on this wooden bridge, and there is no other way.
Xiao Cong began to hesitate a little, because this scene is so similar to the description in the legendary Yin Cao Difu, but after looking for a long time and not seeing other scenery such as Wangxiangtai, he found that he really thought about it too much, but after thinking about it, he still felt a little apprehensive in his heart, he didn't encounter any danger along the way, it really didn't fit his reverie of the forbidden area, could it be that all the articles were in the nunnery across the river?
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, it's all here, where is there a reason to turn back, just kick at the door, just do it, he made up his mind and strode towards the wooden bridge.
Just stepped across the bridge, and walked into the nunnery without hesitation, Xiao Cong took advantage of an impulse, and still nothing happened, which made him even more puzzled by the second monk, why so many people outside were imprisoned here, but he didn't have anything at all, he secretly wondered in his heart,
"This ...... Could it be that my cultivation is too low, and people don't look down on me at all......"
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps sounding gently, Xiao Cong raised his head when he heard the sound, looked at it, and saw that the person who came turned out to be a thin Taoist aunt, wearing a hat, wearing a robe, stepping on linen shoes, holding a string of sandalwood prayer beads, his face was neither happy nor sad, and he was not dyed with half a cent of fireworks.
She walked out of the main hall, walked straight to Xiao Cong's side, recited a holy name, and bowed to Xiao Cong:
"The poor nun is evil, I have seen the son, dare to ask the son why he came?"
As soon as Xiao Cong heard his legal name, he guessed most of his identity,
"Source evil, this fairy girl is afraid that it is not an ordinary creature, it should be born from this heaven and earth. β
He also bowed his hand and said respectfully:
"The younger generation came here to find someone. β
"What person?" Dao Gu's tone was still not mixed with any emotion.
"Jiang Caijun. Xiao Cong was concise and replied truthfully.
"I know the person you are talking about, and you are not the first person to come here to find him, but you are one of the few people who can get here, I can tell you his news, but Wild Desire is not a place where you can come and go as you want, there are rules here, what I said, do you understand?"
Xiao Cong smiled slightly and replied:
"What the fairy Gu said, the younger generation must understand, but for the specific details, please also ask the fairy Gu to make it clear. β
"After the ** bridge, there is no turning back, go inside, through this nunnery, to the lotus pond behind, if you can step on the lotus leaves to cross the pond, the wild desire nunnery will not interfere with the son's stay, the poor nun will also tell the news of the son Jiang Caijun, if you can't step on the lotus leaf to cross the pond, the poor nun will also tell the news of the son Jiang Caijun, but the son will stay here to be the guest of the wild desire hermitage. β
Xiao Cong smiled slightly, bowed and said:
"If I have a relationship here, it will be safe, if I have a fate here, naturally
will stay here, thank you for the instructions of the fairy aunt, the juniors will not bother much, and go in first. β
After speaking, he didn't wait for the aunt to answer, and went inside by himself.
The moment Xiao Cong walked into the main hall, the figure of Dao Gu slowly faded and disappeared, and the courtyard returned to silence, as if none of this had happened, the willows were still clinging, the new vines and old vines, the clouds were shaking, jagged, moving without wind, looking down at the soil under his feet, but he couldn't even leave any footprints, and suddenly people felt that none of this seemed to be true.
According to the instructions of Dao Gu, Xiao Cong walked through the nunnery to the lotus pond at the back, on the way he trembled like walking on thin ice, he didn't even dare to look at the rooms on both sides of the bluestone slab road, because with his keen spiritual sense he knew that in addition to the hall in the middle, every room here lived this terrifying existence, although the feeling of spiritual sense induction back was more illusory, and even very unreal, but he was convinced of it, just as Fang Cai Dao Gu said, if you can't step on the lotus pond, you have to be the guest of this wild desire hermitage, but there will be a few people in this world who can step on the lotus pondHow many strong people have dared to come to this Wild Desire Nunnery to take a risk? The answer is self-evident, even if there is no reminder of spiritual sense, he also believes that this room is full of "guests" of the Wild Desire Nunnery, and if you pull out one at will, killing him is like crushing an ant to death!
"But what's so terrible about this Wild Desire Temple?" he thought to himself, looked up at the lotus in the pond, and muttered to himself:
"It can't be as simple as this lotus pond, what is it?"
He couldn't figure it out.
Wild Desire Nunnery can become one of the nine forbidden places recognized by Xuan Zhen, and its horror level is definitely not just a joke of casual talk, before it was only the so-called Wild Desire Nunnery, and its essence is all in a desire word, but it should also bring some other color heads, but now that I have come here, I haven't seen any color heads, in this regard, Xiao Cong did not feel any sense of disappointment but became more and more heavy, and said that what was condensed was the essence, and all the weirdness of this Wild Desire Nunnery was really concentrated in this lotus pond, then he really had it.
Standing on the edge of the lotus pond, counting back and forth ten times, I found that there are no more than thirteen lotus leaves in this lotus pond, and there are no more than three lotus flowers around each lotus leaf, of which there are two jasper toads on twelve lotus leaves, and the last one is missing, these twenty-five jasper toads are all living creatures, and the lotus leaves are divided equally at different angles in the opposite positions on the lotus leaves, and a pair of jasper toads on each lotus leaf are offset by a certain angle compared to a pair of jasper toads on the last lotus leafBecause in his spiritual sense, the jasper toad is nothing else, it is the five poison era and the lock python, the phantom evil spider, the tuo qi centipede, and the world destroying scorpion together to pit and kill the ancestor of the sun!
"Is it possible...... Where did the Ring Toad that stir up a bloody storm outside escape from here?"
He couldn't help but be scared out of a cold sweat, what kind of character was that ring toad back then, Tiandao Weng
When the "Ice Heart Jue" made of the silk silk silk was handed over to him, it was carefully told to him, the legend is that the five clans covered the sky, the silkworm clan and several other ancient clans in the wilderness are like the sky, and its patriarch is even more amazing, unlikely, he changed his ancestral law, created a precedent for the sun clan to compete with the sun, and finally wanted to swallow the sun but ended up with a soul flying annihilation.
The toad is cunning, the centipede is arrogant, the scorpion is evil, the spider is vicious, the long worm is the most stupid, and the spider is the most vicious, not only because she is vicious, but also because she is the strongest person with the highest poisoning technique of the five poisons, and the name of the "poisonous queen" is well deserved, and she is the only one since ancient times! When the five poisonous powerhouses attacked and killed the ancestor of the chasing sun, he used the trick of the toad, the brute force of the centipede and the scorpion, the venom of the spider and the corpse of an ancestor of the long worm, the toad was one of the protectors of the ancestor of the chasing sun, so he had a guess about several other protectors, he asked the centipede and the scorpion to assassinate the two people who were most likely to become the protectors of the ancestor of the sun and replaced them in disguise, took the venom from the spider, and let the spider and the long worm wait outside the barrier of the ancestor of the long worm outside the barrier of the ancestor of the chasing sun, He deceived the ancestor of Zhuyang into drinking poisonous wine in the name of wishes, and secretly beat the wisp of karmic fire into the body of Zhuyang ancestor at the critical moment when Zhuyang ancestor rushed to the pass, thinking that this would be done once and for all, and the fierce and terrible yang power would definitely break through the enchantment and burn the ancestor of Zhuyang to the point of annihilation, but who thought, Zhuyang ancestor had already asked the Xiao family to build a peerless magic circle in the place where he rushed to the pass, just in case, in a hurry, the ring toad took out the sky-breaking cone of the saint who pierced the mountain, and used all his strength to penetrate the peerless array out of a hole, and the yang power that had been accumulated for several hours poured down, and the ancestor of Zhuyang was destroyed at this pointand the catastrophe will never be recovered.........
But back then, the five clans were not like other eras fighting each other for the title of the world's first in the world, and the surprising unity between them, although they were not monolithic, but they got along with each other quite well, which was an extremely rare phenomenon in the ancient historical records of the change of the era of the Xuanzhen Realm, so Xiao Cong thought of a more incredible possibility - the five Tongtian Ancestors who ruled an era back then may have all gone out of this Wild Desire Nunnery, which is the only thing that makes them sympathize with each other!
At this time, he really wanted to take a walk around this nunnery to see if there were any traces of the lock python, the phantom evil spirit, the Tuo Karma centipede and the extinction scorpion, but he wanted to think about it and do it, he clearly knew that for him, it was just a matter of thinking.
So, he put all these thoughts that can only be thought about behind him, and re-set his eyes on the lotus lotus in the full pool, because the Dao Gu did not agree with him on a time limit before, so he thinks that he has a lot of time to think about it now, and the more he prepares, the more opportunities, which Xiao Tianyu had warned him before.
Looking at the lotus in the pond, he frowned slightly, and thought about it,
"Thirteen lotus leaves, each lotus leaf originally had two ring toads, accompanied by three lotus flowers, is this right?
In response to the Taoist doctrine, what about the two, two, three, and three births of all things in one life? Thirteen is the number of absolute yin, symbolizing great danger...... No, thirteen should represent seven emotions and six desires, the seven emotions are joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and pity, and the six desires refer to color, fragrance, sound, taste, touch, and dharma......
"The Tao can be the way, the very way, the name can be named, the very name, the beginning of the nameless heaven and earth, the mother of the famous heaven and earth, so there is often no desire, to see its wonderful, often have desire, to see its precedence, these two are the same and different names, the same is called the mystery, the mystery and the mystery, the door of all wonders. β
"Emptiness is color, color is emptiness, emptiness is not different color, color is not different from emptiness, and it is the same when you want to know it, and it is the same ......"
He put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, and sighed with a soothing brow,
"Maybe my understanding of the past is a little wrong, single-mindedness is not blindly suppressing yourself, maybe ** is not indispensable, but for the grasp of **, you need a suitable degree, or maybe ......"
He sighed again, looking sad,
Or maybe this world is meaningless, but what is the purpose of our existence? Or is it the sentence obtained from the bottom of the Wind Sleep Valley, existence is reasonable, everything has a reason, the world is constant, why should I do it? Isn't that really desireless, the Tao is constantly changing, the meaning is also changing, everything in this world is not static, even if all this originates from nothingness, and eventually it will return to nothingness, but there is still a process in this, I am in this process, so the meaning of my existence should also change, maybe the word meaning is meaningless for heaven and earth, but for myself, I think it is meaningful, it is meaningful, the meaning of my existence is not pinned on the world, but all tied to myself, the pursuit of the Tao, just my will, not for anythingοΌβ
At this moment, he felt suddenly enlightened, as if he had a different kind of epiphany, the corners of his mouth raised a more and more charming smile, and began to involuntarily raise his legs, walking towards the lotus pond in front of him.
