Chapter 104: Eight Gates
Under the leadership of Iri Khan, the kings united. In the royal court, the decisive force was the cowardly Xue army, but with the death of the old Khan, the cowardly Xue army has been completely divided, so the guards of the kings and Nayan have become not to be underestimated, and when they unite, it becomes an unstoppable trend.
Sugaran Khan, or Song Zheng, was very clever and did not go against the trend, but gave up the Golden Horde, led his men and horses to withdraw from the royal court, and stationed on the periphery of the royal court.
Unexpectedly smooth, the kings attacked the golden horde of the old Khan, and Ili Khan summoned the kings, Nayan, the ministers, the cowardly Xue army captain, and the four Yan clans, and entered the palace of the old Khan together, and saw the body of the old Khan in the old Khan's bedroom.
Ili Khan confirmed that this was ironclad evidence that Old Khan was refined into an "immortal stone", and he also completely confirmed the charge of the national teacher. It's just that when the two chamberlains wanted to collect the body of the old Khan, they were sucked into two skeletons by the old Khan's body without warning, and the body of the old Khan was still only the size of a baby, without the slightest change. This indirectly explains why the Khan did not transfer the body of the old Khan, because only the national teacher could do it, but the national teacher was entangled by the clouds at this time and could not get out at all.
Ili Khan was well-informed, and as the captain of the cowardly Xue army, he also knew more about the secrets of the royal court, and said: "From this point of view, the 'Immortal Stone' has not yet been completely refined, so the corpse of the old Khan is still closely connected to the altar where the 'Immortal Stone' is refined, and if you want to break this connection, you must first destroy the altar." ”
So the kings left the old Khan's palace and came to the forbidden place behind the palace, and saw the tall altar with eighty-one steps, which was now shrouded in a blood-colored halo visible to the naked eye, like an inverted bowl covering the altar, and it was impossible to approach it at all.
Li Xuandu, who had been silent, suddenly said to Ili Khan: "The national teacher and Yutaiyun must be in this altar. ”
Irihan wondered, "Inside the altar, does the messenger mean that the altar is empty?"
Li Xuandu pondered for a moment and said: "It's not empty, in the words of our Central Plains, this is a 'cave sky' created by manpower, and it has its own small world, which is often said to be 'there is no cave sky'. ”
After all, Ili Khan was a person who was proficient in the study of the Central Plains, and Li Xuandu only explained slightly, and he immediately understood.
At this time, all the kings looked at the two of them, and among the kings' entourage, there was no shortage of masters, but according to the division of the Central Plains rivers and lakes, these people were all martial artists, and even pure martial artists were the majority, and there was no one Fang Shi, so it was difficult to help in this kind of thing. However, it is also reasonable that the monks in the royal court are shamans, and the samans are loyal to the national teacher, and they have disappeared without a trace at this time.
Li Xuandu frowned and pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the national teacher invited him first
The place of the meeting, my heart couldn't help but move, that day the national teacher invited him, it would be impossible to think that there would be a Taiyun to stir up the situation later, in the eyes of the national teacher at that time, just one Li Xuandu, there is no way to hinder the overall situation, even if Li Xuan knows that the national teacher has built a big hall underground, he is powerless to change anything, he should not be too guarded, so will there be any mystery in the residence of the national teacher?
Thinking of this, Li Xuandu informed Ili Khan of his thoughts, and Chi also stood up to testify for Li Xuandu, because that day he led Li Xuandu to the palace where the national teacher lived, so Ili Khan decided to go to the palace where the national teacher lived immediately, and the old Khan's golden tent was the left and right structure, and the three halls were like a "mountain" character, the highest in the middle, The largest golden temple is the residence of the old Khan, the golden palace on the left has become the residence of the national teacher, and the golden hall on the right has become the place where the national teacher renews the life of the old Khan, which has been transformed into a huge altar, under the altar is a pool of blood, full of blood, now it seems that this is also part of the conspiracy of the national teacher, the national teacher will use the body of the old khan as a container, and inject a huge amount of life force into the old Khan with the method of blood sacrifice.
Under the leadership of Ye Chi, the kings came to the left side of the hall where Li Xuandu had been, the entire hall has been transformed beyond recognition, there is no decoration, there are no tables, chairs, beds and other things, empty, very empty, and then on the ground of the hall there is a portal that opens downward, like a gate that was originally erected fell to the ground, below the portal is a stone path that winds downward, the steps of the stone path are very rough, it seems that it is only temporarily excavated, and it has not been carefully polished. Follow this downward stone path to the end, and after coming out, there is an underground hall as large as the upper hall, but there are eight stone gates in the eight directions of the underground hall, and the entrance to the lower hall is one of the eight stone gates.
This hall has no outstanding appearance in the slightest, and it does not occupy a large area, like a cellar built in a hurry by nobles who are not very large, and it is even more empty at this time.
Li Xuandu looked at the remaining seven stone gates and said, "The national teacher, like Ili Khan, is also proficient in the study of the Central Plains, and the national teacher especially likes the study of the Daomen. In addition to the entrance we entered, there are eight stone gates, which just correspond to the number of gossip, gossip, dry, kan, gen, zhen, Xun, li, kun, dui, and correspond to the eight gates in Qimen Dunjia, eight gates, rest, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, surprise, and open. ”
Irihan asked, "Does the envoy still know the formation?"
Li Xuandu said: "I am a disciple of the Daomen, and I know a little bit about it. ”
Ili Khan looked at the seven-sided stone gate and said, "Please ask the messenger to clear your doubts." ”
After Li Xuandu pondered for a while, he said: "Qiangua, open the door, northwest direction." Kan hexagram, Hugh Gate, due north. Gen hexagram, Shengmen, northeast direction. shake
Hexagram, wounded door, due east. Xun hexagram, Dumen, southeast. Leaving the hexagram, Jingmen, due south. Kun hexagram, the door of death, southwest location. Redemption hexagram, shocking door, due west. ”
"If you want to make money and profit, you must know that you are dead. The battle is far away and the door is open, and it is the best to see the nobles in the door. There are many lawsuits against the door, and Du Men has nothing to hide. Wounded fighting can catch thieves, and Jingmen is thoughtful when drinking. Generally speaking, there are three men of opening, rest, and birth, and the three murderers of death, shock, and injury, and Du Men and Jingmen Zhongping. The entrance we came in was in the northeast direction, which corresponds to the Shengmen, and when I went to see the national teacher that day, I entered the due east position, which is the wounded gate. Wounded door in the east of the earthquake palace, the five elements belong to the wood, just after the spring equinox of the moon when the Jiamu Emperor Wang, Wang is easy to break. The hexagram is active, and it is easy to be injured if it moves. Marshal Jiazi is often hidden under the soil, and the son and Mao are punished, and the punishment is injured, so the injury is a fierce door. If the national teacher is still here, entering the injured gate is the murder gate, but the national teacher is obviously not there, and there are still six doors left, of which the death gate and the shock door must be avoided, and there are five left. ”
Irihan said: "Since Dumen and Jingmen are in peace, the only way to open the door, close the door, and give birth is good, and then remove the birth gate when we come in, that is, choose one from the door opening and the closing door." Which does the messenger think is better?"
Li Xuandu was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "The national teacher has a deep relationship with Song Zheng, and it is very likely that these Taoist learnings were passed on by Song Zheng, and Song Zheng is the suzerain of the Wudao Sect. There is a saying in the Wudao Sect, called: 'The year is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious.' 'Open the door to live in the northwest Qiangong, and the five elements belong to gold. Qiangua, is the head of the eight trigrams, for the heavens as the father, as the Qianna, the dry position has Hai, Hai is the place of the eternal life of the Jiamu, and the first is the head of the ten stems, so it means the beginning of all things, and is the gate of great luck. ”
These Eight Gates of Doctrine can't stop the masters of the Daomen in the Central Plains, but in the Golden Horde, they can make the vast majority of people, including Ili Khan, helpless.
The kings could no longer understand the conversation between the two, but the light in Irihan's eyes lit up, and he praised sincerely: "The messenger is erudite and talented, and admires and admires." Since it is the land of Jiamu immortality, and it is also the gate of great luck, which corresponds to the 'Immortal Stone' and the 'Daoless Sect', then it is undoubtedly the opening of the door. ”
After that, Irihan stopped talking nonsense, swept his body, and pressed his palm on the "open door" in the northwest.
The surface of the stone gate turned into powder and fell, revealing its true face, and a strange character appeared in front of the kings, neither the script of the Central Plains nor the text of the Golden Horde.
However, Li Xuandu just recognized that this was a Taoist talisman, which was clearly recorded in the "Taiping Qing Lingjing", Li Xuandu came to the side of Ili Khan, pointed at the beginning of this talisman, and injected the qi.
Then this talisman took Li Xuandu's finger as the core, and the veins of the entire talisman became bright and shining in turn as if the gate had been opened and the water was released.
