"You're here? It's very punctual, I remember sometimes you're a little late. "Zhu Xianene has just come out of the Yuxi Palace—he doesn't go to meet with Shang Luo every time now, because alchemy has time for alchemy.

"Because I was woken up in the morning."

"Are you on good terms with Phaethon? How does it feel to have a cute girl in the family? ”

"It feels like an extra porcelain doll, and I'm afraid I'll break her."

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

"Psychologically, it means psychologically. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I still had a lot to do. ”

"Well, let's go, then." Zhu Xianene patted him on the shoulder, "Daozu is in a good mood, something good will happen today." ”

"Dao Ancestor." Shang Luo stood at the head of His Majesty Dan and bowed inside, this is the salute to the teacher during the morning class, and it is also the salute that should be done to the master.

"Come closer."

Shang Luo walked up to the Dan Majesty and walked to the side of the Dan furnace.

"Come closer, come in and talk."

“???” Shang Luo glanced to the side - "Lu Fang" who was standing there had already made a way out of the way and made a gesture of please.

The inner chamber of the Yuxi Palace. This was the first time he had been invited to enter, and according to his previous impressions, Zhu Xianene had only entered once.

"Understood."

He straightened his collar and walked from Lu Fang's side into the fine house in the inner room of Yuxi Palace.

Zhu Xianene mentioned that the layout inside is exactly the same as the Yuxi Palace in the West Garden of the Shuntian Forbidden City. If this is the case, there should be a pavilion-like retreat inside, and Daozu sits in it. Below is Tai Chi.

Sure enough.

Shang Luo walked in. There are no golden furnishings inside, and there is even more life than the outside. There is a "fine house" covered by a curtain in the center of the inner room, and the curtain hangs down, so that you can't see the inside. It seems to be empty, but there is a faint outline.

The floor around it was spotless, and the pillars were draped with ochre-yellow draperies. If anything's different, it's that there are four niches on the wall that are large enough to hold the statue of the Celestial King, and now there are indeed four inside.

Yes, there is not only one Dao Ancestor in it, there are five Dao Ancestors in total. Outside the ashram, the four shrines revealed golden transparent human figures.

The first on the left hand, Shang Luo recognized, was the old Taoist Zhang Tianshi Sanfeng who he had seen in Nanyang, wearing the formal clothes of the last time, holding a cane and standing solemnly in place. There are three others.

There was one, standing still in the sky, with a sword hanging behind him.

There was one who was sitting upright on the altar, and a light wheel faintly appeared behind him.

And one more. Leaning back on a folding chair, wearing big sunglasses, holding a plate in his hand as if eating shrimp dumplings. Yes, it was a shrimp dumpling, and Shang Luo could see that the shrimp was also projected into gold. There was also a trumpet-like thing next to the chair.

"Ah, good morning, guys." Shang Luo was stunned by this posture, and he didn't expect that Dao Ancestor was not the only one who wanted to see him today.

"Well, good morning." The one who ate the shrimp dumplings dipped some soy sauce and ate the last shrimp dumpling on the plate, then put the plate out of the "picture" and dragged a piece of paper to wipe his hands.

"Don't be nervous." He wiped his hands and said, "I didn't call you here today to ask questions, but to confer honors." Daojun, do you want to start now? ”

"Let's get started." Dao Ancestor in the middle spoke.

"Ahem." The one who wiped his hands stood up and patted his collar, "Then, Shangluo Xiaoyou, let me introduce you to you first." In front of you, summoned by the Dao King, are the four protectors of this dynasty. ”

"The first place, Yuqing Inner Prime Minister Pure Yang Great Tianzun, Lu Tianshi Dongbin."

"The second place, Qingxu Xuanmiao Tianzun, Zhang Tianshi Sanfeng. You know. ”

"The third place, Changchun Yandao Tianzun, Qiu Tianshi is at the right time."

"Fourth place"

Daozu took his words: "Fourth, you probably know and probably have heard of it. Xuanfeng Yongzhen Tianzun, Sa Tianshi guards strong. ”

"Ahh It's the one! Shang Luo vaguely guessed it just now, but he didn't expect it to be that one.

"Well, you've seen my movie?" Sa Tianshi asked him.

"No, but I bought all the tickets, but I just couldn't see it. I'll go see it this week. ”

"Oh, it looks like we're blessed. Thank you for your support, I'm talking to you on the set, the second part of Wang Lingguan's big movie has started. Is there anything you'd like to ask? Don't panic. As I said earlier, today I am here to confer honors, not to ask questions. ”

"Wang Lingguan, is it a real person?"

"Unfortunately, no." Sa Tianshi shook his head, "There are often some discrepancies between myth and reality. Although there are many similar apprentices and grandchildren, I have not specifically accepted Wang Lingguan's apprentice, but many legends feel that I should have accepted it. Since everyone loves to watch it, I also filmed the story to make the children happy and earn some blessings and merits. But if it's you, your merit and fortune will be great. ”

"That's what you said."

Dao Zu opened his mouth, and he said in person:

"The top is like the bottom, and the bottom is the same as the top. The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived by the wind, and nourished from the earth. Ascend from the earth and descend from heaven. The world is created in this way, and miracles can be achieved in this way. Up and down swapped, yin and yang holes opened. In this way, the miracle of Taiyi is fulfilled - Shang Luo, do you know what this is? ”

"Yes." Shang Luo replied, "I talked to Victoria. This is, "Jade Record". ”

"The Jade Record", the ultimate mystery of Rome's triple greatness, the answer to all the questions in the legend, and the mystery of all the mysteries.

But as a mystery within a mystery, "Jade Record" is not secret. In fact, its content is very clear, that is, those that start with "top as bottom, bottom as top." to begin the sentence.

As the ultimate answer, "Jade Record" is very clear. But what the Romans didn't figure out "to death" was what the problem was.

And now, everything is clear.

Up as below, down as up. The sun is the father, the moon is the mother, conceived by the wind, and nourished from the earth.

The sea of stars is up, and the husk is down. Aurora is the sun, Rome is Luoyang. Conceived from the heavens, and maintained with the back soil.

A miracle is coming. Up and down swapped, yin and yang holes opened.

"You are a miracle worker. You've bought time for all of us. Daozu said, "Your merits are already great, but I hope your merits can be even greater." When the day comes, when the day of 'the upper and lower swaps, the yin and yang hole opens' really comes, I hope you will stand at the top and announce it to everyone. ”

"Hmm." Shang Luo nodded, "I'll do my best." ”

"No, no, it's not just a matter of refueling. The Celestial Masters have discussed it with me, and we don't think it's too much to give you anything. So, now your Master is not just me. Dao Ancestor's voice came from the retreat:

"I will still watch over you until you ascend. But now, you can choose one of the four Heavenly Masters as your mentor. Unlike me, the four Heavenly Masters can personally guide you in your cultivation, and all four of them will teach you everything. However, you'll have to choose one of them to take you first – don't worry about saving face, your work is far more important than your face. So, choose, which one do you want to start with? ”
