Chapter 45: Confucianism is immortal
Qin Bai hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he walked into the Broken Dragon Gorge alone, which could only be passed by one person, without hesitation.
Liu Tiannan and Grandpa Liu Qin behind him wanted to stop Qin Bai, but after raising their hands, both of them didn't really shout.
The Broken Dragon Gorge is extremely deep, with an angle of nearly 50 degrees straight to the depths of the ground, the entire canyon passage is almost straight down, along the way it looks about semi-artificial and semi-natural, but more natural more than one day.
But at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty more than 700 years ago, even if there were more natural ones, the manpower consumed by such a passage was definitely far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
All the way down, Qin Bai's heart was also full of expectations, he wanted to learn more about the secrets of the gods through the almost godlike Liu Tianshi more than seven hundred years ago.
On the contrary, Qin Bai didn't care about refining qigong methods and the like.
Probably went down for nearly 2,000 meters, and the entire Broken Dragon Gorge did not change much, at most it was the difference between two people wide or one person wide.
On the contrary, the first line of sky above the head gives people an inexplicable sense of depression, especially when it is more than two thousand meters away, and there is only a thin gray-white line in the first line of sky above the head, coupled with the increasingly strong yin wind coming out of the ground, even Qin Bai has a feeling that he can't bear it psychologically.
It felt like walking in a dark spring.
Suddenly, Qin Bai let out a low sigh, and when he reached a depth of more than two thousand meters, the two walls of the gorge that were originally exposed and pitch black were replaced by a dark black with a red glow, and the underground passage was sealed by a gray-white wall more than a foot high.
Qin Bai was shocked by this wall after just a little closer look, this was not the so-called stone wall at all, but it was made of countless gray and white dry bones, and countless human skulls could be clearly seen scattered among the dry bones.
The originally cold canyon passage instantly became as if it was cold to the bone, and even Qin Bai couldn't help but feel a heart-piercing chill in his heart.
But then a piece of writing on the stone wall next to the bone wall attracted Qin Bai's attention.
"Confucianism is immortal, why should the soul of a thousand years of wronged soul go to Huangquan. ”
Qin Bai's brows tightened, Qin Bai could naturally understand the meaning of this sentence, but if you add the sentence in the mountain temple outside the Broken Dragon Gorge that the saint is immortal, and the thief is not stopped, the meaning is complicated.
Qin Bai naturally knew about Confucianism, although modern Confucianism seems to be so weak that it is far from even comparable to Buddhism and Taoism, and it can be said that the Taoism is completely broken, but if you look closely at the ancient books of the Ming and Qing dynasties, you will find that the power of Confucianism in that period far exceeded that of Buddhism and Taoism.
Especially in the Ming Dynasty, the party struggle between the DPRK and China was prosperous, which can be called a Confucian infighting.
Qin Bai was a little strange, he didn't understand why Liu Bowen would leave such a sentence in the depths of this Broken Dragon Gorge, and looking at the handwriting, it was obviously the same as the plaque with the word Bowen in the mountain temple, and it was almost sure that it was left by Liu Bowen himself.
Qin Bai took a deep look at these big handwritings, and the handwriting was as deep as purple, obviously like the canyon behind the white bone wall, which was drenched in blood.
Looking at the situation in this canyon passage, it is very likely that it was poured by human blood.
"This damn world!"
Even if it was Qin Bai, at this time, his good impression of the legendary Liu Bowen was lost.
Qin Bai looked at the wall of dry bones in front of him, and simply turned around and left, at this time, even if there were any treasures in the canyon, he was no longer interested, because he couldn't step on the wall of dry bones all over the ground.
When Qin Bai walked out of the Broken Dragon Gorge, Liu Tiannan and Old Man Liu, who had been anxiously waiting in front of the Mountain Temple, immediately greeted him, especially Old Man Liu looked Qin Bai up and down for several rounds, and then asked, "Master Qin, what have you found at the bottom of this Broken Dragon Gorge?"
Qin Bai's mood was extremely bad because he saw the situation at the bottom.
"Found that it was full of dry bones from hundreds of years ago, and the number was tens of thousands. ”
Liu Tiannan and Old Man Liu glanced at each other, as if they were not surprised by Qin Bai's discovery.
Qin Bai was stunned for a moment and then instantly understood, "Do you know the situation at the bottom of the valley?"
Qin Bai's tone became more and more unkind when he said this.
When Liu Tiannan saw it, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Mr. Qin, don't get me wrong, we don't know what is at the bottom of the Broken Dragon Gorge, but our ancestors still left some legends." ”
Saying that, Liu Tiannan said with a somewhat ugly face: "In ancient times, it was generally difficult for the craftsmen who built the imperial tombs to survive, but according to the legends left by the ancestors, most of the people used to dig the dragon veins were prisoners of war at that time. ”
Qin Bai's face looked a little better, but thinking of the situation at the bottom, he was still a little angry.
Back at the foot of the mountain in Liujia Village, Liu Qin and Lin Wei greeted him as soon as possible, especially Lin Wei, as soon as he came up, he said: "Master Qin, I have completed the statistics of the Lingshan Lingtian in Liujiashan, there are about more than 30 acres of Lingshan, more than 2,000 Lingguo trees, including 221 Lingtian Lingguo above the third level, there are not many Lingtian, only less than 30 acres, but because of the prosperity of Liujiashan's dragon spirit, the grade of these Lingtian is extremely high, at least it is more than three levels of Lingmi. ”
Although Qin Bai did not notify Lin Wei to count Liu Jiashan's various future incomes, Lin Wei naturally would not do nothing, so when Qin Bai and the Liu family went up the mountain, he simply pulled Liu Qin to count the various spiritual mountains and spiritual fields of Liu Jiashan.
Although Qin Bai knew that the income of this Liujia Mountain would definitely not be low after discovering the Broken Dragon Gorge, he did not expect that there were so many Lingshan Spiritual Fields, especially now that the Dragon Vein was still in the growth stage, and there would only be more Lingshan Spiritual Fields in the future.
But such a terrifying amount also made Qin Bai a little worried, he still knew that he had a few catties and a few taels.
On the contrary, Liu Tiannan and Grandpa Liu Qin were more indifferent, and they already knew what it meant when they came up with this condition, although they couldn't really recognize the price of these spirit fruits for the time being, but they knew that if they didn't invite foreign help, their Liu family wouldn't be able to keep this belongings.
Qin Bai ignored the two of them all the way when he walked down the mountain, and the situation at the bottom of the canyon really made him a little disgusted with that Liu Tianshi.
But Liu Tianshi is an ancient man after all, and he will not get along with others and himself for the sake of the ancients.
Qin Bai thought for a while, and simply said directly to Grandpa Liu Qin: "I have two cultivation exercises in my hands, one is the blood alchemy that I announced in Jianghai Square, you can practice without the help of others to induce qi, and the other is the authentic qi alchemy I found in the library of Jiangcheng University, now you hurry up and choose the right people, I can help you teach ten people for each exercise, and the others can be taught by these ten people." ”
Liu Tiannan and Old Man Liu immediately became excited, and hurriedly bowed their hands together: "Thank you, Master Qin." ”
Qin Bai ignored it, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
In half a month, Qin Bai watched the Liu family slowly condense from a plate of scattered sand.
There are not many Wang Du families in Jiangcheng, and Wang Du's family is either like the Wang family, which has not lost its roots, or it is like the Du family has a very appealing mainstay.
And the Liu family, not only has the orthodoxy of the main lineage and branch been lost, but even the centripetal force has long been lost, this kind of slowly condensed situation makes Qin Bai an eye-opener, especially Liu Tiannan's general means, so that Liu Tiannan's perception is greatly increased.
"Mr. Qin, do you think they can directly teach the blood alchemy technique to the entire clan now?"
In the newly built martial arts arena of the Liu family, Qin Bai, accompanied by Liu Tiannan and Old Man Liu, slowly checked the progress of the ten people who finally chose to come out to practice blood alchemy.
Unlike the ten people who cultivated another Xuanxin Righteous Qi Technique, these ten people were all young, and the oldest was only fifteen years old, which was also a choice made by Liu Tiannan himself.
According to him, blood alchemy is obviously more suitable for polishing the foundation, although Qin Bai didn't agree with it very much, but in the end he didn't object, in short, he only taught the method of cultivation, as for how these people who practiced his exercises would develop in the future, he was not responsible or interfered.
Qin Bai glanced at the ten young men of the Liu family in front of him, and there was only one girl among them, that was Liu Qin's own sister, which Qin Bai directly asked for in Liu Qin's face.
Qin Bai thought about it, and finally nodded directly, the blood alchemy technique itself is not complicated, and there is no great difficulty and danger, so it doesn't matter if these ten people are allowed to teach it on their own in the Liu family.
On the contrary, it was the ten middle-aged and young men who cultivated the Xuanxin Righteous Qi Technique that attracted Qin Bai's attention even more.
The Xuanxin Righteous Qi Technique is a method of refining qi that Qin Bai has obtained from the ancient books of Jiangcheng University for a long time, but this method of refining qi has more of the temperament of a scholar, that is, the feeling of Confucianism, so that in fact, there has always been speculation that this Xuanxin Righteous Qi Technique may have been practiced by scholars in ancient times, and it pays attention to Zhongzheng and peace.
Qin Bai's transmission of the Xuanxin Righteous Qi Technique to the Liu family was also a bad taste after seeing the scene at the bottom of the Broken Dragon Canyon and the inscription.
Qin Bai was a little curious about what kind of mentality the Liu family would have when they saw the words left by their ancestors at the bottom of the valley and then thought of the qi refining technique they had cultivated.
Just as Qin Bai was discussing his future plans with Liu Tiannan in a low voice, Lin Wei suddenly walked over from a distance in a hurry.
"Master Qin, something happened to Jiangcheng?"
Qin Bai was stunned for a moment, but he didn't think it was strange, because Jiang Cheng's original situation was a bit like a powder keg pressure cooker, and the relationship between Qingyunguan and Wang Du was a bit like a balance beam, and it was reasonable for the two of them to have problems.
Especially Jiangcheng is the provincial capital, such an important place, Qin Bai never thought that a sectarian force like Qingyunguan would give up.
Worldly money is of little help to cultivators at a certain stage, especially like Qin Bai, but it does not mean that worldly wealth is useless to big forces like Qingyunguan Wang Du.
Even in order to develop their strength, worldly money is even more important to them, after all, the vast majority of ordinary people who depend on them need these worldly goods.
Just like the Liu family in front of him, Liu Tiannan unified the entire Liu family through the money in his hand and the various spiritual fruits and spiritual rice in the Liu family's mountain, plus the traditional cultivation method of Qin Bai.
For the vast majority of ordinary people in the Liu family, worldly money is more important than Lingguo Lingmi.
If it weren't for the Liu family's strict order not to allow the clansmen to sell the distributed spirit fruit spirit rice, maybe many of the Liu family would resell the spirit fruit spirit rice themselves.
This is true for the ordinary people of the Liu family, and even more so for those big forces and clans, so the conflict in Jiangcheng is definitely only a matter of time before Qin Bai sees it.
In fact, almost everyone sees it that way.
