Chapter 8 "The Ancestral Hall of the Fallen Gods"
Dozens of miles away from the north of the ancient city, Luoshen Mountain is quiet and quiet, like an old man who is out of the way, sitting between heaven and earth, comfortably closing his eyes and recuperating.
The mountain-climbing peak in the center of Mt. Luoshen is majestic and steep, and the back mountain is towering into the clouds. The fracture of the front mountain, which was once split by the head of the Heavenly Void Dao, has lost its original appearance after three thousand years of historical evolution. On top of the mirror-like fracture sat layers of ancient temples. Directly in front of the fracture is a square with a length and width of 200 meters, paved with fine marble.
Directly behind the square is a splendid palace. The temple was built magnificently, with extreme luxury, and exquisite craftsman arts such as wood carving, stone carving, jade carving, and gold inlay can be seen everywhere.
In the depths of this hall, a temple is not large, but it looks solemn and sacred.
Directly in front of the temple stood two jade pillars, each carved with a picture, and on the left was a dazzling sword falling to the top of a mountain peak, splitting the mountain in half. On the right side is engraved an old Taoist holding a long sword waving in the sky, and the swordsmanship is round and smooth. These two depictions, with delicate brushwork and smooth lines, depict the content of the paintings vividly.
The main entrance of the palace, a plaque decorated with gold edges, hanging high on the lintel of the main entrance, four golden characters on the book "Falling God Ancestral Hall", the handwriting is vigorous, shining.
The temple is divided into the main hall, the left and right side halls, and the apse. The front door of the main hall is four bays made of the finest mahogany. It shows the calm and solemnity of the ancestral hall.
On the main hall of the hall, an ancient painting hangs directly above the hall, on which is painted an old Taoist in a white robe, with fairy wind and bones, and the air is lofty.
There is a flower carved jade platform under the ancient painting, and there are spirit cards placed on the jade platform. Dozens of white candles were lit in front of the spirit card. Candles surround a bronze incense burner, and the incense burns continuously, and the green smoke rises up.
On this main hall, five Taoists dressed in purple gold silk robes stood in the center of the hall, motionless, with a calm and natural expression.
In front of the flower-carved jade platform stood a Taoist man wearing a white gold silk robe, with half-white hair and a long beard. He held the three pillars of incense in his hand, held it up to the front, closed his eyes, and whispered softly in his mouth.
"The fifteenth generation head of the Luoshenmen, Taixuan, with the first seat of each peak, came to worship the ancestor of Tianxu and the heads of the past dynasties, today is the day of the founding of the ancestors, please bless the ancestors and the heads of the past dynasties to bless our faction with prosperity and immortality. ”
After that, the Taoist made three gestures, and then respectfully inserted the three pillars of incense into the bronze incense burner. This Taoist is the head of the current Fallen God Sect - Taixuan Zhenren.
Today, there are seven leading figures in the Luoshen Gate, and in addition to the Ascending Peak, the six top masters are at the top of each peak. Ascending Heaven Peak is personally in charge of Taixuan Zhenren. The ranks of the sects are distinguished according to the color of the robes, and the disciples are arranged from weak to strong, divided into yellow shirts, blue shirts, and green shirts. The elder is a yew, the first robe has a gold thread sewn on the edge of the yew robe, and the head is a white robe.
After the incense was applied, Taixuan Zhenren quietly stared at the portrait of the patriarch. Outside the hall, several young men wearing cyan robes walked in, and everyone saluted the head and the first seat.
The young man in the lead seems to be in his early twenties, dressed in a green shirt and flowing out of the dust, his gestures are gentle and elegant, tall, kind eyebrows, handsome and extraordinary, he is a rare beautiful man. He said loudly: "See Master and all the uncles, all the disciples who went down the mountain to inspect have returned to Luoshen Mountain, and I and a few others have come to report the situation. ”
Tai Xuan is really humane: "Tell the truth." ”
"Master Qiqi and fellow uncles, the identity of the diplomatic fighters in Enron City has been investigated. It is the Seven Masters of the Heavenly Dao Palace and the masters of the Demon Realm who have been hidden for many years. By the time I arrived, the two sides had already disappeared. Uncle Zhou followed the trail, but our cultivation was too shallow to catch up, so we could only go back to the mountain to report first. ”
"There is another person who came with the master of the Demon Realm, it is Jiang Tianyu, a soul devouring scholar. This man and a group of demonic minions haunted the vicinity of Enron City, killing innocent people, burning down villages, and searching for something. Fortunately, my disciples of Luoshen Mountain have swept all the way and have expelled the subordinates of the Demon Realm. ”
"Continue to lead people to investigate, and be sure to find out the purpose of the Demon Realm's trip. ”
"Obey Master's orders. ”
Taixuan Zhenren turned to everyone and said, "Today's sacrifice has been completed, everyone follow me out of the temple." ”
Everyone walked out of the hall together, and was about to disperse, when they suddenly saw a child leaning on the jade pillar and unconscious, this child was actually Zhou Chenhai.
The young man stepped forward and said, "The Demon Realm has come this time, and there are countless sins. Many children are homeless. I instructed you to take these children back to the mountain gate. This boy was found on our way back to the mountain, there were traces of a fight nearby, this boy has been unconscious, we rushed to report, but we have not had time to settle him. ”
Taixuan Zhenren listened and nodded. He walked up to Tatsuhai, leaned over and took his little hand, and probed his pulse.
Just as Taixuan Zhenren stretched out his hand, the jade seal hanging on Zhou Chenhai's chest seemed to be stimulated and quietly disappeared into his body.
"His health is fine, you leave him here, and I will discuss it with your uncles. Stand down, a few of you. ”
"Obey the teacher's orders. ”
After the young man left, Taixuan Zhenren and the first seat began to talk. One of the first seats is a woman. Judging by his appearance, he is middle-aged, but he is still extremely beautiful and graceful.
The woman smiled and said, "Senior brother in charge, your apprentice is getting more and more powerful. He looks handsome, behaves decently, and has a very high cultivation, and he will be the pillar of the Fallen God Gate in the future. ”
"Senior Sister Shui Han has an overreputation, what kind of climate can this kid become, just don't make a mess for me. Even though he said this, Taixuan Zhenren couldn't help but show a little relief.
"Let's get down to business. Senior Brother Yankong, there are too few people in your Xuanhuo Peak, and your closed disciple has recently passed away due to illness. I want this kid to be your disciple, would you like to?"
Yan Kong said: "Obey the arrangement of the senior brother in charge." ”
Taixuan Zhenren said: "I just took the pulse and found that this child's physique is extremely cold. Senior brother, you have studied the fire path very deeply, so I bother you to take care of it. After all, it was our failure to protect the people under the mountain that made this child suffer. ”
Yan Kong was slightly stunned: "The physique is cold, don't worry, senior brother in charge, after I bring this doll back to Xuanhuo Peak, I will do my best to heal it!"
"Then there is Senior Brother Lao!"
Taixuan is humane: "That's it for today, let's disperse!"
The people obeyed the orders of the master, and they all dispersed. Only the head of the family is still outside the ancestral hall.
A moment later, in the sky, a Taoist who was also wearing a purple gold silk robe came into the sky. Fall in front of the main hall of the ancestral hall.
"I've seen the senior brother in charge. ”
"Senior Brother Zhou doesn't have to be polite, have you found out your brother's whereabouts?"
"Hey, after all, it's a step too late, I've explored a hundred miles around, but I haven't found a trace. Damn, if my brother has three longs and two shorts, I will definitely fight the demon world to the end, until I die!"
Taixuan said: "Since there is no trace, there is still hope for life." Jiren has his own natural appearance, and you don't have to worry too much. Calm down for a few days, and if you still want to go down the mountain to investigate, I will let you go. ”
"Obey the orders of the senior brother in charge. ”
