Chapter 49: The Gap
Not long after Zhang Yu sent Cao Liang away, another person visited, and this one he was also familiar with, it was Wu Chang, the imam of the Miguang Taoist Sect arranged in the Kaiyang School Palace.
This also brought with him a handwritten letter from the leader of the Miguang Dao Sect, and the conditions were almost no different from those of the Hongshan Dao Sect, and it is conceivable that the two factions must have reached an agreement before this.
Although these two factions have been rivals since the beginning of their own existence, they will certainly try to rely on each other in the face of a situation that oppresses their own fundamental interests.
He also agreed to the conditions of the Miguang Dao Sect. Again, now is not the time to completely solve these two Taoist sects, but this matter will eventually have to be resolved.
After sending Wu Chang away, he thought about it, after these two factions got their own reply, it wouldn't take long to conclude the matter of checking the Nightmare Demon.
It's just that this matter doesn't end here, the demon is hovering in the sky above Qingyang Shangzhou all the time, and those who are not contaminated now do not mean that they will be fine in the future, so the matter of supervision cannot be relaxed at all.
And how vast the land of a continent is, the monk flies to the sky, and he is not one of those mortals who live in a corner of the earth, and it is impossible for him to take care of it alone.
Fortunately, according to Xuanzheng's rights and responsibilities, he could appoint certain monks as subordinates to help him supervise the Xuanfu together.
He thought that this matter could be handed over to the Heart Hui Sect for the time being.
This is not because this sect is the first sect to take the initiative to surrender to him, but the main reason is that this sect has strict requirements for the mind and is not easy to be contaminated by demons.
He decided in his heart that after examining the two factions, he began to arrange the matter.
Just as he was about to go back to the ashram to breathe, Li Qinghe came to report, saying that Ying Yuan, Hui Yuanwu, and a monk named Li Mo had come to visit.
He was surprised, he didn't expect these two people to go together, he asked Li Qinghe to prepare tea, he came down from the top of the platform, walked to the guest room, and saw Ying Yuan, Hui Yuanwu and a monk in a black robe waiting there.
When the three men saw him coming, they all stood up and saluted.
After Zhang Yu and the three of them met the ceremony, he first looked at Ying Yuan and said, "Ying Daoyou, a few months have passed since the end of the year, how are you doing recently?"
Ying Yuan said: "Now there is a place to stay. ”
Zhang Yu looked at Hui Yuanwu again, and said, "I see that Hui Daoyou's spirit is at a loss, and there is a knot between his eyebrows, but what are some difficult things to solve recently?"
Hui Yuanwu sighed: "Xuan Zheng can see it accurately. He raised his hand and arched his hand, and said, "Hui is here because there are many things that are about to be revealed." ”
Zhang Yu nodded, and he said to Ying Yuan and the monk, "Please sit here for a while. Then he said to Hui Yuanwu: "Daoist friends come with me." ”
He took Hui Yuanwu to the study and said, "There are no outsiders here, what do you have to say to me?" ”
Hui Yuan Wu said: "I heard about the edict of the Xuan Court before, I have always wanted to come to Xuanzheng, but Qi Yu has always disagreed, and persuaded me to go to Wan Ming, who also dislikes the factions, I thought that this person was also a fellow Taoist, but I didn't expect that this person had other plans, and even sent someone to intercept and kill me on the way back, if it wasn't for Ying Daoyou's rescue, I would have died on the ruins." ”
He talked in detail about the things encountered among the people of Wanming Dao, and said a news that he was not very sure about: "I listened to Qi Yu's words, it seems that there are many Daoists outside the territory who are involved with the Daoists outside the territory, and the Daoists in the domain have actually been manipulated by the Daoists outside the territory, and I don't know if it is true or not." ”
Zhang Yu's eyes moved slightly, to say that the Dao sects in the domain are all manipulated by the Dao sects outside the domain, this is an exaggeration. However, the prosecutor has always suspected that the channel of communication between the Hongshan and Miguang factions and the outer continent is provided by the foreign Taoist faction, and through this, they can influence the Taoist faction in the region, so as to obtain benefits from the interior of the Qingyang Upper Continent, which may exist.
As for the matter of Wan Ming Daoren, he will not just listen to Hui Yuanwu's words, what is it, he will try to confirm it in the future.
After asking a few more words, he asked Li Qinghe to arrange a place for Hui Yuanwu to live in the school palace, then walked out of the study, returned to the guest room, apologized to the two people waiting here, and sat down on the main seat.
He talked a few words with Ying Yuan, only to know that the Li Mo next to him was one of the leaders of the place where he was located, and he took advantage of the words to give him his hand, sat up straight and said: "Xuanzheng, I came with Ying Daoyou this time, there is an urgent matter, and I feel that I must pay tribute to Xuanfu." ”
Zhang Yu looked at him with a serious expression, realized that things were not simple, and nodded: "Fellow Daoist, please speak." ”
Li Mo said: "Back then, I and a few fellow Daoists established a station outside the territory for the convenience of cultivation, and recently because the turbidity tide gradually receded, we can also go to farther places, and half a month ago, when I and a few fellow Daoists chased and killed a foreign god, we undoubtedly entered a ruin, but when we entered it, we found that it was very likely to be a 'boundary gap'!"
Zhang Yu's eyes condensed slightly, and said, "'Boundary Gap'?
According to the previous understanding, the arrival of the turbidity tide caused the world to be "broken".
One view is that this fragmentation is actually the result of the expansion of the world, and that in the past, such upheavals would have led to the flourishing and destruction of civilizations.
This has been the case for the past six eras.
However, not all places in the world will change because of this, and some places will still remain the same as they were a certain era, or even several eras ago, for some special reasons.
The existence of this kind of boundary is called "boundary gap", and in the written records of Tianxia, it is called "Lingguan".
And because these boundaries remain the same as they used to be, this means that people from one place can travel to another place in a relatively short period of time.
Imagine that if another Tianxia Shangzhou could be found at the other end of this gap, its value would be immeasurable.
Li Mo didn't say it to death at this time, but said: "At that time, for fear of encountering danger, we didn't go too deep into it, and we couldn't be completely sure. It's just that the situation there is very similar to what is described in the record. ”
Zhang Yu said at this time: "The value of the gap is self-evident, once confirmed, Li Daoyou's residence may have a unique channel for foreign exchanges, didn't Li Daoyou ever think of monopolizing this place?"
Li Mo shook his head and sighed: "Don't hide it from Xuanzheng, I did have similar thoughts at that time, until a few days ago, I was still hesitating repeatedly, but I also know that if that realm is really the 'Spirit Pass' recorded above, it is impossible to occupy it with our strength, but it may also bring disaster to our station, and the day before yesterday, Ying Daoyou happened to escort Hui Daoyou to Xuanzheng, after thinking about it repeatedly, I still felt that I needed to report this matter to Xuanfu." ”
Zhang Yu nodded slightly, Hun Xiu's cultivation is to fight against all kinds of thoughts, and it is very easy to fall into the great chaos, Li Mo seems to have lost a lot in front of him, but he restrained his greed very quickly, but he has taken a big step forward in the cultivation of his state of mind.
He said: "Except for Li Daoyou and Ying Daoyou, how many people else know about this matter?"
Li Mo said: "I discovered this realm with three fellow Daoists, but they did not agree with me, and I suspect that someone has already revealed the news to the 'Frost Continent'. ”
"Frost Continent?"
It was the first time Zhang Yu had heard of this place.
Li Mo explained: "Frost Continent is the self-proclaimed name of a group of huge forces from the depths of the barren land, but we guess that behind those people is probably the two states and counties left behind by Qingyang Upper Continent before. Because whether it is the creation technique or the military regulations, they are all the same as Qingyang Shangzhou.
Frost Continent has been trying to persuade us to join them for a long time, and lately they have been coming more frequently in the name of it, so I think they may already know something. ”
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment, looked at him and said, "I know about this matter, I will try to confirm that there may be a place for Li Daoyou to work next." ”
Li Mo hurriedly said: "Don't dare, although I am practicing outside the territory, I can still consider myself a monk of Xuanfu, if Xuanzheng has a request, just command." ”
The conversation between the three lasted for more than a summer, and after Zhang Yu sent them both away, he sat there and pondered deeply.
Nowadays, there are three main communication channels between the continents, except for the 'Xuanwang' set up by the Xuanting, which are mastered by the two prefectures.
The first is the passage that has been painstakingly found in the turbid tide, but it may take years to go back and forth at a time, and various accidents are likely to occur along the way.
The second is to go through the "outer layer" to get somewhere else, but this is not an easy path to follow, so it is usually only used for messaging. This is also the most common exchange channel between the two governments.
The third is to make use of the "boundary gap".
He had previously imagined that the Xuanfu must have its own channel for foreign exchanges, so that it could have an equal dialogue with the Zhou Mansion and the Military Government.
Otherwise, for a long time, the two governments will only regard the Xuanfu as dependent, although the Xuanfu is in the highest position in the etiquette system, but sometimes, it will be affected by various special circumstances.
He still remembered what the Dongting Metropolitan Protectorate looked like at the beginning.
He thought in his heart that this boundary must be discovered as soon as possible, and if it was indeed a "spiritual pass" above the record, then he must try to hold it in his hands, and he himself felt the need to go there to confirm it himself.
It's just that this place seems to be coveted by other forces, so we can't help but be vigilant.
However, since this matter was planned for the Xuanfu, then he could ask Zhu Xuanshou for help.
This is the only existing high-ranking monk in the Qingyang Upper Continent Continent, if he can get the support of this one, then this matter will be relatively easy.
After thinking about it, he explained to Li Qinghe, stepped out of Jintai, glanced up, and suddenly rose into the air, turning into a green rainbow and heading towards Qingyang Xuanfu.
