Chapter 67: Proverbs
"In that case, I don't know what the proverb is?" Zhao Yun was shocked for a moment and hurriedly asked.
He is the monarch of the Song Dynasty, and now he is being suppressed by the Mongols, and there is only the possibility of destroying the country, so he is naturally eager to know what this proverb is, so as to prepare in advance.
Zheng Qingzhi stood aside, looking at this scene, he naturally felt a little angry, so he stood up directly and complained, "Your Majesty." According to the minister, although the so-called law of Tianwen is mysterious, if you want to stabilize the court, only by setting the heavens and revitalizing the rules can it be unswerving. If you ask for the so-called method of heavenly questioning, I am afraid that it is useless to ask for fish. β
"Zheng Xianggong's words are wrong!"
From the side, Yue Ke stood up and defended: "Everyone knows that Mongolia is currently heading south, don't say that it is the people of our court, that is, the ministers in this palace, you are not nervous, thinking that it is difficult to fight. If you can use the law of heaven to ask about the future of the country, you will naturally be able to reassure all the ministers and not cause chaos out of thin air!"
Zheng Qingzhi was disdainful, and snorted coldly and said: "Hmph! If this method says, just like the original Chongning Zhenjun, and bluntly said that our dynasty is in decline, what should happen at that time? You should also know that Chongning Zhenjun also used this method to persuade Huizong, but Huizong's foolish will is difficult to stop, so he has the shame of Jingkang. Do you think it really works?"
"If so. We can also prepare in advance, and we will definitely be able to survive this disaster. Yue Ke replied loudly, full of confidence.
"Two Aiqing, don't quarrel, otherwise, isn't this just adding to the resentment?" Seeing that the two were arguing day by day, Zhao Yun immediately opened his mouth to persuade him, and then swept to His Highness and the others, and comforted: "As for the ranks, there is no need to worry. Since this Heavenly Question Method has already been put into operation, if I turn a deaf ear, wouldn't it be a waste of Zhang Tianshi's painstaking efforts?
"Obey. β
Seeing this, Zheng Qingzhi had no choice but to give up and insist.
Yue Ke was overjoyed for a moment, hurriedly looked at Zhang Keda, and asked again: "But I don't know what Zhang Tianshi knows, what is it?"
"Alas!" Zhang Keda's face was helpless, and he immediately replied: "It's also a shame to say, poor Taoist cultivation is far from the ancestors, I really don't know what the proverb is!"
"You don't know?" Zhao Yun was confused for a moment, and asked again: "Could it be that the method of asking questions has failed?"
"Not a failure. It's just that the poor Dao cultivation is not enough, and the qi of the dynasty cannot be manifested, so it can only be transformed into the qi of the dragon and phoenix, scattered in the heaven and earth. Zhang Keda shook his head unconsciously, obviously knowing his cultivation ability, he was able to do it to such an extent, he had already tried his best, but if he wanted to take another step and directly point out the key, it was not possible.
Yue Ke saw Zhao Yun's eyes showing doubts, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the proverb?"
"I think those proverbs should fall on Phoenix Mountain and Jade Emperor Mountain. If you look closely, you should be able to find a clue. Zhang Keda replied intently, with doubts in his words.
"If this is the case, then let the minister go and see what is hidden in this mountain. Yue Ke immediately stood up and took the matter over.
Zhao Yun was also overjoyed when he saw that someone was starting to do it, and hurriedly instructed: "If you find something similar, protect it immediately on the spot, and there must be no damage." Got it?"
"The old minister understands. Yue Ke bowed his head and replied, and left the hall in a hurry.
The matter was settled, and the ministers had nothing else to do, so they dispersed. It's just that after returning to the political hall, Zheng Qingzhi was quite unhappy, and his face was full of chagrin.
Seeing this, Dong Huai hurriedly asked, "Zheng Xianggong." The official family instructed Yue Ke to go and handle this matter, why are you so displeased?"
"Of course not. After all, that guy secretly has a heart, but I'm afraid that what he thinks is not a good thing. Zheng Qingyi's face was suspicious, but his suspicion of Yue Ke became more and more intense, and he said: "And you also know that if the Heavenly Question Method is to operate, it must be limited to lifespan." And that Zhang Keda is now more than fifty years old, and if he runs this method, I'm afraid he won't live long. Isn't it strange to you why this person is running this method at this time?"
"You mean, there is a plot behind this?" Dong Huai was shocked in his heart, and he felt shocked.
"That's right! And this person's identity and status should not be weak, but I am afraid that he is a person in the court. Zheng Qingzhi nodded and said with great certainty.
Dong Huai was puzzled for a moment, and asked again: "In this case, then why is this person who made Zhang Keda do such a thing? After all, it is really unimaginable to consume his life, just for a way that I don't know if it can succeed." β
That Zhang Keda is Zhang Tianshi, the master of the Xuanmen Sect, and the body of the earth immortal.
Such a person, but he just consumed his life for this matter, naturally made the two of them feel puzzled, and they couldn't understand what secret was hidden behind it.
"No matter what they are planning, we must also be vigilant, don't panic because of that proverb, you know?" Zheng Qingzhi's eyes were all restricted, and he instructed Dong Huai a few words to get ready, for some reason he always felt a little uneasy recently, as if something big was about to happen.
............
On the other side, Yue Ke had already led the forbidden army deep into the Jade Emperor Mountain and the Phoenix Mountain, searching for the proverbs stored in them.
Last night, the group of Li people who went deep into the mountains and forests had already been dispersed by the forbidden army, and even if they occasionally slipped through the net, they were disappointed because they couldn't find the so-called inheritance relics, and went down the mountain directly.
Only this forbidden army is still searching for possible proverbs among these two peaks.
It's just that in the Tianlong Temple of Jade Emperor Mountain, Zhang Keda quietly appeared, quietly looking at the lush ancient trees on the peak.
The mountains are long, I don't know how many years have passed, in the mountains and forests, I don't know how many scenery has changed, and the edge of the West Lake is also calm as in the past, but the mirrors and flowers reflected on the lake do not know how many heroic deeds have been left.
The world seems to be endless, and now it has reached a new cycle.
"Uncle Shi. Why did you promise that Yue Ke to forcibly operate the Heavenly Question Method with a life span of ten years?" sighed, and behind Zhang Keda, there was a young man standing.
Zhang Ke sighed and asked: "Zongyan! The world is like chess, unpredictable, in this mortal world, no matter how emperors and generals, they are not eager to live forever and be immortal. But have they ever achieved it when the world has changed?"
"It didn't happen. β
Zhang Zongyan thought about it carefully, and felt very desolate in his heart.
Today, he is only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, and if he is young, he is just a playful age, but for the Zhang Tianshi family who have cultivated the Tao for generations, now is the time to meditate on the Dao Method, seduce the thunder and fire of heaven and earth, and temper his own Dao body, so as to be able to inherit the lineage of Zhang Tianshi when the previous Heavenly Master ascended.
For thousands of years, it has been like this!
Zhang Keda's expression was indifferent, and he replied loudly: "Since this is the case, then why should I be sorry for my life?"
"But uncle, with your current physical condition, I'm afraidβ"
Zhang Zongyan asked again, he had his own grievances in his heart, but it was difficult to ask when he opened his mouth.
He has been practicing the Tao since he was young, and naturally he also knows that the cycle of life is the cycle of heavenly principles, and no one can violate it, even the lineage of Zhang Tianshi, who has been inherited for more than a thousand years, is the same.
Zhang Keda continued: "It's not a pity. What's more, if we can exchange the life span of ten years for the evolution of the imperial court in the next few decades, at least we can get a glimmer of life. Since this is the case, then you need to memorize it and concentrate on calculating, and don't let the Heavenly Master's vein be ruined by you, you know?"
"The disciple knows. β
Zhang Zongyan's body was shocked, so he had to lower his head and answer.
At this moment, there were some exclamations in the distance, as if full of surprise.
Zhang Keda immediately smiled and said, "It seems that I have discovered a proverb." In that case, let's both go for it. The figure flickered, but it was suspended in the air, like an immortal in the world, walking towards the distance, living on the ground Zhang Zongyan rose up lightly, but the foot was just a slender branch, but his body was directly propped up, the faster the speed under his feet, and the sleeves were all propped up, but his speed was not inferior to Zhang Keda, and he generally ran towards the distance.
After walking about a stick of incense, the two of them had already come to a cliff.
"What did you find?"
Zhang Keda swept the cliff and looked sideways at the soldier next to him.
The soldier immediately pointed to the mountain wall covered with green vines and moss, and replied, "I once saw this cliff burst out with golden light before, so I came here, but there are too many vines on it, so it is difficult to get rid of it. β
"Oh, in that case, then let me see, what exactly is written under you?" Zhang Keda laughed unconsciously, his eyes looked intently at the peak, and he already saw a hint of clues, only swept away his long sleeves, and the moss and green vines immediately dissipated, revealing sixteen golden characters below.
"The greedy wolf swallows the sky, and the dragon is trapped in the shallow sea. Uncle Shi, what do these eight golden characters mean?" Zhang Zongyan next to him was puzzled, and opened his mouth to ask.
"And that's not all. The soldier took the two of them to another place, and on this cliff, there were also eight golden characters printed on it: "Yin and Yang are reversed, and the source is clear!"
"The greedy wolf swallows the sky, and the dragon is trapped in the shallow sea. Yin and yang are reversed, and the world is mixed. Uncle Shi, what does this mean?" Zhang Zongyan looked puzzled and asked again.
Zhang Keda said: "This place is the Jade Emperor Mountain, a place reserved for dragon qi, and its proverbs are only half of them, so you naturally don't understand what it means." Fu You saw Yue Ke walking briskly in the distance, so he laughed, "It seems that that person has also gained something on Phoenix Mountain." β
Sure enough, when Yue Ke saw the two of them again, he immediately started to work lightly, and suddenly came to the two of them, and asked the two of them breathlessly, "Have you two found the proverb?"
"Right here!"
Pointing to the cliff, Zhang Ke replied loudly.
"So that's it?"
Yue Ke's expression was serious, and doubts rose in his heart
Zhang Keda asked again: "What is that?"
"Fengming for nine days, the universe hangs upside down. China is unified, and the world returns to the Yuan!" Yue Ke's expression was serious, and he immediately said the remaining eight words.
