Chapter 504: Great Changes in the Heavenly Master's Mansion!
Although Jinhua and Longhushan are in the two provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jiangyou respectively, Jiangyou and Jiangsu and Zhejiang are bordered, and the two places happen to be on the adjacent border.
So it's only a few hundred miles apart.
If it was Zhang Jing in the past, a distance of hundreds of miles, coupled with the obstruction of mountains, forests and rivers, even if it was day and night, it would take several days.
But Zhang Jing is now traveling with a sword, starting from Jinhua in the morning, only two hours later, at noon, he has already arrived at the place where Longhu Mountain is located.
The place where Longhu Mountain is located is called Daodu City!
Daodu, Daodu, the capital of all roads in the world.
It can be seen that Longhu Mountain has the status of the world's Taoist gates.
Longhu Mountain is twenty kilometers southwest of the Daodu City, legend has it that Zhang Daoling Patriarch had alchemy here, and the dragon and tiger appeared when the Dan was completed, so it was named Longhu Mountain.
Longhu Mountain not only has magnificent scenery, continuous peaks and peaks, waterfalls are flying one after another, ancient trees are swaying, and there are rivers surrounding it, and there are lakes all over it, and the feng shui is extraordinary at a glance.
However, the Heavenly Master's Mansion is not like some sects, in order to show the style, the mountain gate Taoist temple is deliberately built on the top of the mountain, so that it seems to be more immortal and can show its own difference.
The Heavenly Master's Mansion is located in a place surrounded by fairy energy like Longhu Mountain, but it does not place the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, but is built near the river and is located at the foot of the mountain.
The road is very walking, the terrain is flat, it is very convenient for the pilgrims who come to visit, and there is no Xianmen living in seclusion, and it is difficult for ordinary people to visit.
Even in the course of thousands of years of development, not far from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, a small town has flourished, called Longhu Town.
There are inns, small merchants and vendors, and all kinds of restaurants in the town.
Longhushan did not feel that he was contaminated by the smell of fireworks, and drove the residents of the town away, and the Taoist temple and the residents of the town got along very well.
Even because of the protection of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, although this Dragon and Tiger Town is not a big place, it is extremely prosperous, and it is also very stable in this troubled world, with smooth wind and rain, like a paradise.
But.
Today's Dragon and Tiger Town, the atmosphere is very different from usual.
If it was in the past, Longhu Town at noon should be the most lively and crowded time.
After visiting the Heavenly Master's Mansion early in the morning, after the petition is completed, they will not leave immediately, but will have lunch in the nearby town or find a place to rest for a while.
But today's Longhu Town is unusually quiet and deserted, there is no lively scene of crowds on the street, and there is no shouting and shouting of various small merchants and vendors, and most of the shops are directly closed for business.
There are even many people who put on plain silk directly, looking miserable, and sighing deeply from time to time.
After arriving at Longhu Mountain, in order to show respect, Zhang Jing did not fly directly to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Instead, he landed in the nearby Dragon and Tiger Town, preparing to inquire about the situation in the town first.
At this time, he was naturally full of thoughts and excitement in his heart, thinking that he would be able to see Tingting later, so he couldn't suppress the fluctuation in his heart.
Three years later, he finally did it.
However, seeing this strange scene in Dragon Tiger Town, he couldn't help frowning.
Clearly, something is going on here.
"A lot of people died in town?"
"Not true. Almost every family wears mourning clothes, and it is impossible for a small town to die so many at the same time. ”
"There is no trace of war. ”
"Demons and demons are even more impossible. The Heavenly Master's Mansion is right next to it, what demons and monsters dare to kill people here?"
Zhang Jing guessed in his heart.
Soon.
Zhang Jing saw an old man sitting in front of his house, holding a long cigarette stick in his hand, and sighing every time he took a puff of cigarette, he stepped forward and asked politely: "Uncle, I am a newcomer who has just arrived and want to visit the Heavenly Master's Mansion." I'd like to ask, what's going on in town lately?"
The old man glanced at Zhang Jing, shook his head and said, "Young man, the Heavenly Master's Mansion has recently closed its doors to thank guests, and so is our Longhu Town. If you sincerely want to burn incense, then go back to the Dao Capital City first, find a place to live for ten days and half a month, and then see the situation. ”
The Heavenly Master's Mansion is closed?
And it will take ten days and half a month before it is possible to open the door?
Zhang Jing was shocked when he heard this.
It seems that something big has happened in the Heavenly Master's Mansion!
Zhang Jing hurriedly and sincerely asked the reason.
The old man didn't seem to be in the mood and didn't want to talk much about it, but under Zhang Jing's repeated questioning, he took a few puffs of leaf cigarettes before he said sadly: "Heavenly Master...... I'm riding a crane to the west!"
Airplanes!
Zhang Jing's whole person suddenly stayed in place.
It took a long time to come back to his senses, and his first reaction was to shake his head and say, "How is this possible? How could the Heavenly Master suddenly travel west with a crane? This is impossible!"
The old man snorted coldly, no longer paying attention to Zhang Jing, just lowered his head and smoked.
He also didn't want to believe that this was true, and hoped that the Heavenly Master was still alive and well.
But.
That's the case, what's the solution?
Most of the people in the Heavenly Master's Mansion are very kind, even if some people have cold or eccentric personalities, they will definitely not rely on the identity of the Heavenly Master's Mansion to do anything wrong. At this point, the Heavenly Master's Mansion has advised the disciples in the sect very well.
Therefore, the people of the entire Longhu Town are grateful to the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and they have an excellent impression, and they believe in respecting the Heavenly Master's Mansion in their hearts.
As for the Old Heavenly Master, although he no longer appears in the rivers and lakes in recent years, some old people in Longhu Town have had the opportunity to meet the Old Heavenly Master a few times.
Although the wind and rain in these old Longhu Town are smooth and like a paradise, it is not without disasters and plagues, and many times it was experienced by the Heavenly Master back then, saving many people.
Every household, they call the old heavenly master no longer the old heavenly master, but directly call it the old immortal!
It is the sustenance in the hearts of many people!
Therefore, now that the news of the Heavenly Master driving the crane to the west comes out, the residents of the town will spontaneously wear plain clothes to show their remembrance of the old Heavenly Master.
Zhang Jing didn't entangle with the old man anymore, immediately turned around and hurriedly ran towards the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
He wanted to find out what had happened to the Heavenly Master's Mansion and what had happened to the Heavenly Master.
Although the last time he saw the Heavenly Master was three years ago.
But at that time, although the Heavenly Master had white hair, he was in good spirits, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he had a childish face!
How could it be that for no reason, in just three years, passed away?
As for the accident?
With the strength of the old heavenly master, he has already broken the shackles of heaven and earth, and he is the real legendary figure of today's Daomen, even if Zhang Jing is now, looking back at the strength shown by the old heavenly master three years ago, he already admires it.
Such a powerful master, what accident will pass away?
Zhang Jing didn't believe it.
I don't think it's true.
If...... If it's true, what happened to Tingting?
Zhang Jing shook his head, didn't think about it anymore, his pace quickened, and after a while, he passed through Dragon Tiger Town and came to the outside of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Although the Heavenly Master's Mansion was only built at the foot of Longhu Mountain, not on the mountain, the grandeur of the building was not lost.
The gatehouse and the palace are all made of beige red fine paint, antique, and the majestic momentum is revealed in the simplicity, and the feng shui is secretly in line with the gossip, a row of fairy gas.
However, Zhang Jing didn't have the heart to look at these buildings at the moment, his eyes fell on the closed gate of the Heavenly Master's Mansion and the white couplet pasted next to the gate, and his heart was extremely bad.
Really......
Someone in the Heavenly Master's Mansion has died!
And what can make the Heavenly Master's Mansion treat it so solemnly must be of extremely high status.
"How is this possible?
Zhang Jing's excitement and excitement when he first arrived at Longhu Mountain were suppressed at this moment, and his heart couldn't help but be full of uneasiness.
If it was really the Heavenly Master's accident, then the current situation in the Heavenly Master's Mansion would probably be extremely bad!
Just as Zhang Jing was about to step forward and knock on the door, the gate of the Heavenly Master's Mansion was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
A group of young Taoist priests dressed in plain clothes walked out, all with a sad look on their faces.
Seeing Zhang Jing standing outside the door, they thought that it was another believer who didn't know the situation of the Heavenly Master's Mansion and came to admire him, so even someone stepped forward and explained: "The Heavenly Master's Mansion has recently closed its doors to thank guests, if the laymen come to burn incense and pray for blessings, please go back." ”
Zhang Jing arched his hand, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Jing, a disciple in Xiamao Mountain, had an agreement with the old heavenly master three years ago, and three years later, Longhu Mountain visited his old man. I don't know if the Heavenly Master is in the house?"
Hearing this, several young Taoist priests were stunned, their faces were complicated, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.
At this time, a young Taoist priest came out of the room, and was very surprised when he saw Zhang Jing, so he hurriedly walked over and asked, "Zhang Jing, why are you here?"
Zhang Jing looked over and found that it was Zhang Xiaowu, a drunkard Taoist priest who was in Lingnan a few years ago and did not fight and did not know him.
"Senior Brother Xiaowu, do you know this person? He said that he is a disciple of Maoshan and had an agreement with the Old Heavenly Master three years ago, and today he is here to make an appointment......" The young Taoist priest who asked Zhang Jing just now asked Zhang Xiaowu.
Zhang Xiaowu also had doubts in his eyes when he heard this.
He naturally knew Zhang Jing's identity, and there was no doubt that he was a disciple of Maoshan.
But this guy, when did he know the Heavenly Master? Under normal circumstances, the Heavenly Master has not appeared in the rivers and lakes for decades.
Moreover, he also came to visit the Heavenly Master at such a time.
Although there were doubts and puzzles in his heart, Zhang Xiaowu believed that Zhang Jing should not have malicious intentions when he came to the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Of course, there can be no malice.
Even if the Heavenly Master's Mansion is in great trouble now, when it is the weakest, it is not Zhang Jing, a disciple of the Maoshan Sect, who can come to find trouble.
So Zhang Xiaowu waved his hand to several young Taoist priests and said, "I know this person, he is a disciple of the Maoshan faction, just leave it to me." Go and go about your business."
A few Taoist priests were not suspicious, nodded and turned to leave.
Although Zhang Xiaowu is a bit of a fool and has no positive shape, among the younger generation of disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, he is second only to Zhang Daozhen, who is known as the little Heavenly Master on the rivers and lakes, and the cultivation realm has broken through the refining master realm three years ago.
Now, I heard that he has reached the middle and late stages of the refining master realm, and he is closely following Zhang Daozhen.
Watching the junior disciples leave, Zhang Xiaowu approached Zhang Jing, frowned and asked, "You really have an agreement with the Heavenly Master, and you are here to make an appointment today?"
Zhang Jing nodded, didn't explain too much, and hurriedly asked, "What happened to the Heavenly Master's Mansion?"
Zhang Xiaowu revealed a wry smile on his face, and replied in a low mood: "The agreement between you and the Heavenly Master can only be nullified now." Two days ago, the Celestial Master had already driven the crane west to ......"
Wow!
It turned out to be true.
Zhang Jing lost his voice when he heard this: "This ...... How is it possible? With the cultivation realm of the Heavenly Master, how could he suddenly drive the crane west?"
Zhang Xiaowu just smiled bitterly and didn't say what the reason was.
Because the matter is still a mystery, he knows very little, and he knows only half of it.
Zhang Jing was stunned for a moment, then stared at Zhang Xiaowu again, and asked in a trembling voice: "Heavenly Master, three years ago, he once rescued a woman, do you know?
