Chapter 23: The Chess Pieces
These five keys are: time, location, people, divine help and pattern combination.
The so-called celestial time is represented by nine stars: Tianpeng Star, Tianren Star, Tianchong Star, Tianfu Star, Tianying Star, Tianrui Star, Tianzhu Star, Tianxin Star, and Tianfowl Star. It represents the influence of the movement of celestial bodies on everything, including the changes in wind, rain, thunder and lightning in nature;
The geographical advantage is represented by the nine houses: Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, Dui and the Middle Five Palaces. Representatives represent the influence of geographical environment, feng shui, and magnetic fields on things;
Harmony is represented by eight gates: opening, resting, life, injury, Du, scenery, death, and shock. Represents interpersonal relationships, ethics and morality, etc.;
Shenzhu is represented by the eight gods: value charm (Tianyi noble), beetle snake, Taiyin, Liuhe, white tiger, Xuanwu, nine earths, and nine heavens. are the eight mystical natural forces corresponding to the nine palace gossip;
The pattern combination is the combination structure of heaven, earth, people, gods, stars, doors, odd and instrumental in Qimen Dunjia, which is represented by the combination of ten dry grams, eight grams, stars, doors, odd and instruments.
Leng Xiaoyao talked for a long time, and listened to He Tao in a fog, and now the second monk is confused.
"I said, you've been talking a lot for a long time, why can't I understand anything?"
Leng Xiaoyao glanced at him and ignored his words.
After arranging the things in his hand, he continued: "Follow me for a while, the person who laid out this formation is very strong, and I am not sure that I will be able to take you out safely." ”
He Tao was completely blindsided: "After talking for a long time, you are also trying your luck!" ”
Here, Mo Tianya and Bai Ye have already taken their respective magic weapons and are ready to deal with them at any time, but they don't want to be stopped directly by Leng Xiaoyao!
"If you want to get out, you'd better put away your set! If you're guessing correctly, someone of you urged the spiritual power to open that passage, right? It was also someone who forcibly used spiritual power to attack, so that I was mixed in by you. ”
Seeing that Leng Xiaoyao directly saw through the actions of Bai Ye and the others, Bai Ye put away the bell and listened to the arrangement honestly.
"You've been to the lower floor, haven't you? What do you see? Leng Xiaoyao was ready, but he was not in a hurry, but chatted with everyone.
Brother Dong knows that this little girl has some ability, and now she can only gamble and believe her.
"There's a coffin in the middle, and there are a lot of snakes!" Brother Dong looked at the little girl in front of him, although she was young, she really had an extraordinary bearing, "What's wrong, Miss Leng, do you know anything?" ”
"Inside the sarcophagus, there was once the high priest of the ancient Shu Kingdom. This is the place where he pursues immortality. ”
Phoenix!
Bai Ye and his party came to this place to explore the so-called art of immortality, but they didn't expect that the mountains and rivers would be suspicious, and the willows and flowers would be bright and another village! I've been looking for something for so long, but it's right under my feet!
Leng Xiaoyao looked at everyone's surprised expressions and continued: "That dark passage is a stone staircase leading to the next floor, with a total of 6,561 steps!" ”
"I see!" When Dong Ge heard it, he suddenly realized, because in this plan, Dong Ge was the only one who participated twice, and no one was more touched than Dong Ge.
"Looks like we've all become pawns!"
Brother Dong sighed softly, turned to Leng Xiaoyao and said, "Miss Leng, thank you for your guidance today, if we can escape, I, Li Dong, will definitely repay you!" ”
Bai Ye and the others didn't understand why Dong Ge would suddenly say such a thing to a strange woman. But now it is true that only those who listen to the cold and carefree can hope to get out of here.
He Tao, who didn't know about the "summit plan", looked blindfolded, and didn't understand what everyone was saying: "Brother Dong, what dumb riddle are you playing?" What kind of chess pieces, we don't have anyone to bring chess? ”
Brother Dong looked at He Tao and looked apologetic: "Brother He Tao, this time it is all of us who have troubled you." ”
The ancients' understanding of death and life is nothing more than reincarnation. After death, the soul returns to the underworld, crosses the Nai He Bridge, and after drinking Meng Po soup, it returns to the world as a new life individual. And in this way, someone is destined to be able to live forever, that is, to break out of reincarnation while alive!
In this way, people will no longer be under the control of the reincarnation of the Three Realms, and naturally there will be no birth, old age, sickness and death.
Reincarnation, ninety-nine to one, these 6561 are four nines!
Mo Tianya also found the clue: "Therefore, this high priest not only wants to live forever, but also wants to be king!" But rebirth requires certain conditions, if the time is ripe, but the physical body has been annihilated, and being reborn is just a lonely ghost who can't return to the underworld.
The high priest of the ancient Shu Kingdom back then wanted to use the art of immortality to make himself immortal. Therefore, the 6561 stone staircase was set up, and the upper and lower layers of tombs were built at the same time, the upper layer implied the sun, and was capped with pine and cypress resin, so that the sunlight could penetrate in; The lower layer is pitch black, implying the underworld, and there is a coffin, which means that the person is dead and has escaped the pursuit of the Yin soldiers and the underworld. The upper and lower floors are connected by 6,561 steps, and from then on, they will only reincarnate in the small world they have built. ”
Mo Tianya followed Leng Yao's train of thought and reasoned out the matter.
"This little brother is not bad! The children can be taught. Tell me, why did you become pawns? ”
"If you want to be the king and become the honor of the ninety-five, four nines are definitely not enough, and the five of us are the last step of immortality!" Mo Tianya suddenly understood what was going on.
"Not bad! The children can be taught! ”
Leng Xiaoyao saw that everyone almost knew what the situation was, so he started to act. Light a stick of incense in the center of the hall and watch the smoke rise in a straight line before you start to take steps.
Everyone followed closely behind Leng Xiaoyao, and followed the formation set by Leng Xiaoyao to wander around in the main hall. It seems that there is no discipline, but Dong Ge can see at a glance that every step he takes corresponds to the eight gates and nine palaces!
What a great man! Brother Dong sighed in his heart. Although the others didn't understand why they did this, they looked at Brother Dong's engrossed appearance, and heard Leng Xiaoyao's words just now, they all temporarily put aside the doubts in their hearts and chose to believe Leng Xiaoyao.
Leng Xiaoyao arranged the keys on the ground as he walked, and instructed everyone to be careful of being stepped on.
By the time the incense was about to burn out, everyone had already followed Leng Xiaoyao around the hall for a whole circle. Leng Xiaoyao continued to take a stick of incense from his bag and lit it, and the moment he lit it, the last stick of incense had just finished burning.
"Miss Leng is so exquisite! This leisurely step is as light as an eagle touching water, it is not a small kung fu, it can't do this! Dong Ge couldn't help but praise in the interval of cold rest.
"Fat uncle has good eyesight, I'm just a small skill of carving insects. This hall seems to be dangerous, but it can only trap ordinary people, and those who have Taoism are trapped, and it will only disturb the immortal plan of the person below. The real danger is still to come, and when the time comes, I will have to trouble these big brothers with strong martial arts to help! ”
He Tao was straight-eyed, and as soon as he heard this, he became energetic: "Hehe, Miss Leng doesn't have to be polite, as long as you can take us out of this broken place, even if there are jackals, tigers and leopards outside, I He Tao will give you the moment!" ”
"Good! Just don't pee your pants for a while! ”
After speaking, Leng Xiaoyao watched that the incense was half-burned, and there was no wind in the hall at this time, but the smoke actually made a right-angle turn in the air and drifted in one direction.
Seeing this, Leng Xiaoyao walked forward quickly, drew his long sword and waved his hand, and the wall in front of him collapsed!
Finally found it!
