Chapter 52: The Ancestral Court of the Shangqing Dynasty

Blue Moon galloped on the official road to Jiangyin, although the loyalty alliance of Wulin Baidao was temporarily divided by itself, it would soon regroup and pursue from behind, Jiang Yulin's Jinyiwei and Zhu Bai's Yulin army would also concentrate their forces on Jiangyin, Wuxi, Suzhou area search, even the martial arts underworld may take advantage of the fire to rob themselves, in the final analysis, their own head is still very valuable, kill their own people, some can be promoted, some can make a fortune, some can be famous, although these people have no grievances with themselves in the past, but they are still chasing themselves like a bunch of flies that cannot be dispersed, with killing themselves as the ultimate goal.

Come on, just don't blame me when the time comes! Lan Yue's heart has no fear, only hatred for Zhu Yuanzhang and contempt for the enemy, these people hunt down and kill themselves in the name of all kinds of justice, in fact, it is still for the unseemly little selfish interests in their hearts. Jindan Dafa gave Lan Yue a new life, and Lan Yue kept cultivating Dafa every day, as if she was addicted, and every hour or two if she didn't practice, she would feel uncomfortable and restless. Every time he finished practicing, he felt comfortable, his ears and eyes were clear, and the speed of his brain had increased several times, and Lan Yue could feel the rapid growth of the golden pill in his body. In her spare time, in addition to thinking about the next course of action and plan, Lan Yue thought most about how to integrate the moves she had fought on the battlefield over the years into Jindan Dafa and form her own unique martial arts routines, only then could Lan Yue temporarily forget about hatred.

The official road winds and zigzags forward. Not far in front of a majestic and beautiful green mountain standing in front of her, Lan Yue was not in the mood to play in the mountains and rivers, just about to ride a horse to pass by, suddenly Jin Dan moved, Lan Yue knew that the Jin Dan in his body was at this time to cultivate, so he rode his horse to the mountain, hoping to find a quiet place to cultivate.

When they went down the mountain, they saw that there was no pure land, but they saw a sheep's intestine trail leading to the mountain not far away, so they tied their horses to the forest, stepped on the path, and climbed the steps. After a few turns along the mountain, Lan Yue found that there was a small pavilion in the woods, and there was still a vacant lot in front of the pavilion.

Suddenly, Jin Dan gave a warning, Lan Yue hurriedly collected his work for the time being, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that there were already four or five Taoist priests in front of him, standing with swords. One of them was in his twenties, with big ears, and the other four were all young Taoist priests who looked like teenagers.

The old Taoist priest is also a deacon in this view, some power, seeing that his group came to the front of the blue moon is still sitting in a big way, and he can't help but feel angry in his heart, but it is not appropriate to make extraneous branches today, so he suppressed the anger, stepped forward and said: "This believer, the back mountain here is this forbidden place, outsiders are forbidden to stay, if you want to visit Sanqing or need to Zhai Jiao ceremony, you can choose a day to enter from the front mountain gate, today there is something wrong with the Taoist temple, we will not accept foreign guests, please leave quickly." ”

These words were already very polite to him, but Lan Yue was interrupted from his practice, and he was physically and mentally unhappy, and after listening to the words of the Taoist priest, he just snorted, and there was no sign of leaving.

The big-eared Taoist priest on that side suddenly couldn't suppress his anger anymore, turned back to the four paths and said, "Come on, fork him down the mountain." Lan Yue saw the little Taoist's hand on his shoulder, and he didn't see him raise his arm, but Jin Dan shook lightly in his body, and a stream of true qi from Jin Dan was sent out from his waist to his shoulder, and then wrapped around it, and immediately bounced the left and right two small paths to one side, and the remaining momentum was unabated, and the two of them collided with the other two, and suddenly the four of them made a rolling gourd.

The big-eared Taoist priest suddenly said angrily: "Okay, you devil, it turns out to be the demon's companion!" was about to draw his sword and stab him, at this moment, the bell of "dang, dang" came from the front mountain, and the Taoist knew that this was a signal that the enemy was coming to attack and urgently assembled, and put away the long sword and said fiercely: "Don't run, go to the front mountain together." With that, he hurriedly went with the four little Taoist priests.

It was the first time that Lan Yue was scolded as a "demon and demon", and suddenly she felt ridiculous, and her curiosity was aroused again, and she wanted to see what was going on, so she hung those Taoist priests far away and went to the front mountain.

After turning a few corners, bypassing a huge Taoist temple, Lan Yue came to a wide square, only to see the people on the square facing each other on both sides, and the Taoist priests came to stand close to the Taoist temple, and the big-eared Taoist priest saw that Lan Yue really came over, and he believed that Lan Yue was also a "demon", but it was strange why Lan Yue didn't go to the "demon" team, but just stood aside and watched.

Lan Yu first watched the Taoist temple, only to see that the Taoist temple back to the mountains and water, the momentum is extraordinary, all the buildings are in line with the way of feng shui, the left green dragon, the right white tiger, the south Vermilion Bird, the north Xuanwu, the four elephants and five elements implied in the meantime, Tiangang Beidou hidden in the middle. In front of the Taoist temple, after the square are three archways, just in line with the number of heaven, earth, people three talents, the first building card is engraved with the four words of "Maoshan Holy Land", the middle floor card is engraved with the four words of "Shangqing Ancestral Garden", and the last floor card is "Respect the Tao and Honor".

Only then did Blue Moon know what this was. Originally, there is a beautiful mountain at the junction of Zhenjiang Mansion and Changzhou Mansion, originally called Juqu Mountain, during the Western Han Dynasty, Mao Ying three brothers came here to settle down and cultivate, cure diseases and save people, and finally became immortals, and flew away. Later generations felt its kindness, so the mountain was renamed Maoshan Mountain. Taoism has the saying that the cave heaven is blessed with land, and Maoshan ranks eighth among the ten major caves of Taoism, and ranks first among the seventy-two blessed lands. Yang Xi, the patriarch of the Shangqing School, practiced here and founded the Shangqing School. During the Southern Qi Dynasty, Tao Hongjing practiced here, and he inherited the teachings and techniques of the Shangqing School, and founded the Maoshan Sect on the basis of the Shangqing School. The treasure of its town is the patriarch Yang Xi's handwritten book "Shangqing Dadong True Scripture", it is said that the magic recorded in the book, spells, talismans, spells, etc. have unpredictable opportunities, so each generation is only passed on to the master of one person. At that time, Taoism was divided into two factions, the north faction was dominated by the Quanzhen Sect, majoring in the art of Danding, the south was mainly the Zhengyi Sect, good at the method of Fu Zheng, Maoshan Sect was a branch of the Zhengyi Sect, and the Jingming Sect where Xi Yingzhen was located was also the Zhengyi Sect, if Lanyue was also a Taoist in Taoism, then he and the Taoist priests of the Maoshan Sect belonged to the Zhengyi Sect of the Southern School of Taoism, but the Jindan Dafa of the Blue Moon may be closer to the Northern School of Quanzhen.

Lan Yue looked to both sides, and there were more than a hundred and so Taoist priests of all sizes standing on the north side, the first one was different, about forty years old, with five locks of black hair floating on his chest, wearing a crown of Jiaotai, wearing a purple robe, covered with cranes, pedaling on his face and shoes, holding a whisk, standing proud. The other Taoist priests wore kudzu clothes or blue coats.

There are also dozens of people on the south side, wearing a large number of costumes. It's just that the first person is also dressed as a Taoist priest, wearing a scarf on his head, wearing a blue dero, stepping on ten-square shoes, and carrying a male and female sword. This person is only about twenty or thirty years old, tall, handsome, with a face like a crown of jade, a smile at the corner of his mouth, and spring in his eyes. Next to this person stood a young woman, about twenty years old, dressed as a Miao and Li ethnic group in Yunnan-Guizhou, with a fair complexion and a good appearance, wearing short sleeves, a pair of jade arms exposed, and a pair of huge gold bracelets on her wrists to set off the white skin and snow. From the way she looked at the young Taoist, Lan Yue guessed that the two were a couple.

I saw the Taoist priest in the north take a step forward and shouted: "Zhang Yuanxiang, you don't abide by the rules of the Tao, make friends with evil demons, you were expelled from the mountain gate by the master six years ago, and today you dare to go up the mountain again and provoke the original view, aren't you afraid that the Tao will not remember the old feelings and take your life?"

That Zhang Yuanxiang took a step forward and said with a smile: "For others, five years ago today, it was the day when the master Yunding real person was feathered and ascended to immortal, and it was a good day, but with my understanding of you Zhang Yuanji, it is very likely that the master was killed by you." It's just that I don't have any evidence for the time being. The purpose of my visit today is also very simple, that is, to bow down in front of the master's Dharma body, and take away the "Shangqing Dadong True Scripture" by the way. ”

Zhang Yuanji shouted angrily: "Bastard! With your false words and arrogant words, I should have killed you now." He turned around and sighed again: "Who made you my half-brother! For the sake of your filial piety to the master, you can enter by yourself, and no other evil spirits are allowed to enter." ”

When all the Taoist priests heard that the sect was so tolerant of their traitors, they all shook their heads secretly, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Who knew that Zhang Yuanxiang laughed: "Of course, the evil demon outside the way is not allowed to enter, but these are not outsiders." Saying that, Zhang Yuanxiang pointed to the beautiful woman next to him and said, "This is my wife Bai Que'er, and the others are her subordinates." "It turns out that there is a big difference between the canons of Taoism in the north and the south, and the most obvious is that Taoist priests in the south can get married and start a family. As he spoke, he led the crowd and went inside.

Zhang Yuanji could no longer care about the brotherhood, and with an order, more than 100 Taoist priests showed their swords at the same time and set up the "Taiping Sword Array". In an instant, the sword light swam away, and the murderous aura was soaring. Legend has it that this "Taiping Sword Array" was created by Zhang Jiao, the Heavenly Master of Taiping Dao, and the Yellow Turban Army resisted the enemy in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, often able to win more with less, and was extremely powerful.

Zhang Yuanxiang knew the power of the sword formation of his own sect, and he didn't dare to break through at this time, so he glanced at Bai Qi'er. Bai Que understood it, took out a bamboo flute, and blew it gently.

Lan Yue on the side listened to it in her ears, and felt that the tune was flat, and it was just a few weird tunes over and over again, and she was wondering in her heart, how she played the flute when the war was about to break out, there must be something strange in it.

Sure enough, as soon as Jin Dan moved, Lan Yue first smelled a burst of fishy smell, and then, there was a dense rustling sound in all directions, as if there were countless silkworms eating mulberry leaves in their ears at the same time.

Lan Yue looked around, and her scalp suddenly went numb, only to see a long worm emerge from the grass on the side, and then another, and then another, and more and more snakes crawled out. Looking further away, on several branches, among the rocks, and in the pond, long snakes of all sizes, large and small, were spitting out long red letters, and quickly swam towards here.
