Chapter 160: Seclusion
"Immortals?" the old man shook his head and said with a smile, "In your eyes, maybe." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info only blames the old man for being greedy for sacrificial things to meddle in this matter, violating the six rules, and a wisp of the primordial god has been imprisoned here since then, and he can't get out again. A few days ago, the old man saw a mighty righteousness rising in the valley, its momentum was unstoppable, the old man knew that the day of getting out of trouble was just around the corner, so he led the two of you to come here for a while, and asked Zhang Daoyou to help, the old man must have a good reward. ”
"Seniors, I am only shallow in my studies, but I am afraid that I will miss the big things of my predecessors. Zhang Zifan reacted and said quickly.
"Hehe, Zhang Daoyou is modest. The old man smiled faintly and continued, "Zhang Daoyou is talented and has learned from the past and the present, and his righteousness can suppress the sun and the moon, and the old man admires it very much. Fellow Daoists, please rest assured, after the matter is completed, the old man will help Daoyou to open the bridge between heaven and earth, and will never break his promise!"
Zhang Zifan was silent for a moment, did not rashly agree, and said, "I don't know what the predecessors want to do?"
The old man sighed and said: "Zhang Daoyou, this matter is simple, Daoyou's Haoran righteousness is the purest power in heaven and earth. The old man has been trapped here for a long time, and he just wants to break the seal with the righteousness of Daoyou, and ask Daoyou to fulfill it!"
Zhang Zifan nodded and said, "Senior, I can only sense this aura when I am studying, and I can't control it at all, and I really don't know how to help my seniors." ”
The old man smiled and said, "Zhang Daoyou, this matter is simple. As long as the Taoist friends work hard here every day, the aura of Haoran will wash away all vain things, and over time, the old man will be able to break through the seal and return to heaven. ”
Zhang Zifan paused for a moment, looked at Zhao Xinming, and said, "Senior, can you let me think about this matter in the future?"
The old man sighed and said, "It's okay, please make a decision early." ”
After speaking, the stone pillar lit up slightly, and the old man retreated. The two breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked down the "Altar of Sacrifice to the Heavens", this time the old man did not stop him, and the two of them stopped until they walked to the edge of the cliff.
Zhao Xinming thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhang, do you trust that old man?"
Zhang Zifan shook his head and said, "Brother Zhao, I don't know either. I have been reading the books of sages since I was a child, and I never believed in ghosts and gods, and even those folk legends were far away, and now I think about it, and I am also sitting in a well and watching the sky, this world is far from being as simple as we think. On this day you have to pay respect, you have to offer to this earth, and you have to bend your loins!"
Zhao Xinming's face changed, and he said again: "Brother Zhang, in my opinion, this old man is more like a lonely ghost. When I was a child, I used to listen to old people tell ghost stories, and the 'ghosts hit the wall' in them were the same as the ones we just encountered. Brother Zhang, don't be deceived by this old ghost!"
As soon as the words fell, I saw a lightning bolt fall out of thin air, just slashing beside Zhao Xinming. The two of them were startled, only to hear the old man roar angrily: "Junior, you deceive people too much, how can the old man be comparable to those lonely souls and wild ghosts......? ”
The voice stopped abruptly, and the old man seemed to have some concerns, and did not dare to say any more. Zhao Xinming was half frightened to death, and the lightning was obviously coming at him. Lightning is the most sunny thing, it is the nemesis of ghosts, and I have never heard of any ghost thing that can control lightning. It can be seen that the old man is by no means a ghost. Even if it is, it must be far beyond his imagination, and he is by no means an object that he can easily provoke.
Zhao Xinming's heart was shocked, where did he dare to say more, he could only make a look, hoping that Zhang Zifan could seriously consider this matter. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zifan pondered for a long time and said, "Brother Zhao, I decided to live in seclusion here and help my seniors!"
"Zhang Daoyou is so gracious, the old man will never break his word. When the old man gets out of trouble, he will definitely help Daoyou to open the bridge between heaven and earth!" The old man was overjoyed and hurriedly said.
Zhao Xinming was anxious, and hurriedly said, "Brother Zhang, please think twice!"
Zhang Zifan sighed and said slowly: "Brother Zhao, I know that you have great ambitions and this ability, but I am different. I'm just a Confucian student, even if I break through the realm of Waigang, I don't have any combat power, so I formed an alliance with Boss Wu, and I also wanted to use his power to rescue Liu Taishou's family, but unfortunately Boss Wu still took the first step. ”
Zhang Zifan was silent for a moment, and said again: "Brother Zhao, Confucian cultivation focuses on accumulation, and only by cultivating one's temperament can one govern the country and level the world." Not to mention that the 'Spring and Autumn Classic' in my hand is broken and incomplete, even if it is complete, with my qualifications, it will not be until I am at least 60 years old before I can be sure of breaking through the realm of Waigang! By then, it will be too late. Brother Zhao, I have studied the books of sages and sages, and I shouldn't have believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, but the facts are in front of me, and I can only fight once. It became a chance to be under it, and failure was nothing more than turning into a cup of loess, that's all!"
Zhao Xinming knew that Zhang Zifan had made up his mind, and it was useless to say more, so he could only respect his choice. In fact, how can I not be like this, it is difficult to ascend to the heavens in the realm of Waigang, if there is an opportunity in front of me, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist, right?
The two were silent for a moment, Zhang Zifan smiled faintly, turned around and returned to the "Altar of Sacrifice to the Heavens". Zhao Xinming hesitated slightly, but also followed. The old man appeared again, this time his appearance was three points clearer, dressed as a Taoist, with a bun on his head, and the charm in his eyes was self-reliant, but he couldn't hide a trace of cruelty. Zhao Xinming's heart suddenly broke out, and he wanted to stop Zhang Zifan, but when he saw Zhang Zifan shaking his head, he sighed secretly and had to give up.
Zhang Zifan stepped forward, saluted respectfully, and said, "Qingxu senior, Zhang Zifan is willing to help the seniors, and ask the seniors to command." ”
"Zhang Daoyou, please get up. Qingxu nodded and said with a smile, "Zhang Daoyou, this matter is easy, just need to recite Confucian classics here when Daoyou arrives every day." ”
Zhang Zifan frowned, and hurriedly said: "Qingxu senior, I don't hide it, I only have a copy of Confucian classics with me." I also asked the seniors to give a few days of grace and let the juniors go back and get some books. ”
"Huh. Qingxu smiled slightly and said, "Zhang Daoyou doesn't need to do this, this altar is divided into three layers, each with an inscription." The inscription on the second layer is engraved with the 36 volumes of the 'Yellow Court', although this book is a Taoist classic, but it implies the truth of heaven and earth. If you understand this book, you will not lose a great opportunity. ”
Zhang Zifan's face changed greatly, and he lost his voice: "Qingxu senior, this inscription is the ancient heavenly book 'Huang Ting Jing'?"
Qingxu shook his head and said, "Zhang Daoyou even knows the 'Huang Tingjing', which is really admirable." This inscription is a commentary on the seventh chapter of the 'Huang Ting Jing', and although it is somewhat biased, it is explained very thoroughly. Daoyou may wish to study it carefully, the old man believes that Daoyou will definitely gain a lot. ”
Zhang Zifan nodded and said, "Thank you seniors for your advice, the juniors will definitely do their best to help the seniors." ”
Qingxu was quite satisfied, and looked at Zhao Xinming again, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he was quite jealous. Zhao Xinming didn't know what to do, so he just thought that Qingxu had given an eviction order, and coughed dryly: "Brother Zhang, don't say goodbye here, see you again." ”
Zhang Zifan arched his hand and said, "Brother Zhao, please take care." ”
Zhao Xinming nodded, bowed to Qingxu, turned around and walked out. After going through hardships all the way, Zhao Xinming returned to Zhongzhou City, only to find that Liu Yue was gone! )
