Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Marginal Gate
It turned out that Wang Meng died of illness that day, Fu Jian was like being stripped of his heart and lungs, crying bitterly, and did not think about tea and dinner for days, and soon Fu Yang and Wang Pi returned to Chang'an, talking about the matter of Qingniu Valley, Fu Jian's grief turned to resentment, pointing to the southeast and scolding: "I only said that it was the heavens that took away my scenery, but it was Daoyi who made a hindrance from it!"
Fortunately, the ministers of the clan, Yangping Gong Furong and others were persuaded to die, and said: "Prime Minister Wang Cheng's last words said: 'Although Jin is located in the south of the Yangtze River, it is Zhengshuo and inherited, and the upper and lower are peaceful. Xianbei and Xiqiang, my enemies, will eventually be troubled, and they should be gradually eliminated so that the society can be harmed. Although the prime minister has gone, the words are still in my ears, please Your Majesty put the community first, and do not make the spirit of the prime minister in heaven worrying and uneasy. β
The ministers persuaded each other, but Fu Jianfang reluctantly gave up. After this incident, although the "Green Sheep" did not save Wang Meng, Fu Jian heard that he had laid down the life-sustaining lamp, although it was not successful, but it was also caused by the interference of the Jin people, and he hated the Jin people, but he had a good impression of the "Qingyangzi", and the people who had this life-sustaining magic should also be enveloped, in case of future emergencies, so he issued an edict to make him the leader of the world's Taoist sects, and summoned him to Chang'an to serve the holy driver.
Qin Zheng heard the reason, but said: "My master doesn't want any canonization, and he doesn't go to Chang'an, and we don't need these things you brought, you can go back." β
But Wang Pi was willing to be sent away by him with a few words? Whatever he said, he would go to the mountain to personally meet the "Qingyang Zhenren" before speaking.
Qin Zheng refused to easily leak the news of Qingyangzi's death, and said openly: "My master was greatly injured because of the prayer incident, and he had to retreat for three years, and no one was seen during this period. β
Wang Pi said: "Then please also ask the little fairy boy to introduce Senior Brother Ling." β
Qin Zheng was so entangled by him that he couldn't help it, and said, "Then please wait, I'll go and ask my senior brother first." β
When he went up the mountain to see Zhu Rong and Yang Gou, Yang Gou scolded Qin Zheng after hearing the reason: "Ah Zheng, how can you make your own claims! It doesn't matter if you want to be canonized, but why don't you want those things! You wait, I'll go down the mountain!"
When Zhu Rong heard that Fu Jian wanted to seal him as the head of the world's Daomen, he couldn't help but be moved, Qin Zheng said: "Uncle Zhu, you can think about it! Fu Jian wants to seal the Qingyangzi, not you! Let's rely on the Qingyang Zhenren's cave here, and hide it from them, if we go to Chang'an, where the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger and the master are like clouds, they will be exposed at any time, if Fu Jian finds out that we are fake, we will be punished for the crime of bullying the king, not to mention the glory and wealth at that time, and we can't even keep our heads." Zhu Rong just stopped thinking about it.
But Yang Gou still welcomed Wang Pi up the mountain, because Qin Zheng lied that the "Green Sheep" was in retreat, and Zhu Rong had no choice but to avoid it. This Taoist view of Wang Pi is the second time to come, after all, this is the residence designed by Qingyangzi himself, although the faΓ§ade is small, but the aura is very deep, the arrangement of a grass and a tree is very reasonable, Wang Pi watched carefully, nodded secretly, did not dare to despise the Taoist temple because of the narrowness.
After the third tour of tea, Yang Gou took the will and received the reward instead of "Naishi", but thanked Fu Jian for his summons and said: "The family teacher is now in retreat, and he really can't go to Chang'an. β
Wang Pi was not reluctant, but he must go to the Qingyangzi retreat to thank him at the door, he said: "Qingyang Zhenren consumes a lot of true yuan for his father, if he does not thank him personally, Wang Pi is a son of man, and his heart is uneasy." β
Qin Zhengxin said: "What he said is good, in fact, it may not be tempting, after all, he didn't get a real person from Qingyang twice here." But if he wants to go to the retreat to thank him through the door, where do you want to lead him to see?" β
The corners of his mouth curled, and he said, "Master is in retreat in the Linglong Pagoda, how can outsiders enter there?"
Wang Pi said: "Linglong Tower? That Xiao Ke only thanked him under the tower, and asked the two fairy children to fulfill it." β
Yang Gou accepted so many gifts from him, his mouth was soft and his hands were short, and he had been entangled by him for a long time, so he had to agree, and said: "If you want to go to Linglong Pagoda, but only Brother Wang will go alone, and the others please wait in the view." β
Wang Pi said: "How dare you disobey!"
Qin Zheng led the way in front, on the way Yang Hook chatted with Wang Pi, casually asked some things outside the world, not long after the stone beam, Wang Pi's light body kung fu is also extraordinary, climbing the mountain and crossing the forest, all barrier-free, to the Linglong Tower, he looked down, but felt that the whole tower was purple and misty, and the fairy mist was misty, and he couldn't help but be in awe.
Qingyangzi is well versed in the science of feng shui, and the Qingniu Valley in his picture is the bell of the 800-mile Qinling Mountains, and the location of this exquisite tower is the gathering of the aura of the entire Qingniu Valley. At this time, the mystery in the tower had been activated, and with Wang Pi's insight, he naturally sensed that the entire Linglong Pagoda contained powerful energy, and he no longer dared to suspect that Qingyangzi was not among them.
Wang Pi bowed three times under the tower, and said loudly: "The last to learn Wang Pi, thank you Qingyang Zhenren for your great kindness." These few words did not dare to carry out the true qi, but they were afraid of disturbing Qingyangzi's retreat and cultivation.
Qin Zheng suddenly pointed to the tower gate and said with a smile: "Don't you want to see my master? If you have the ability, you can go in! Hey, although my master is in retreat now, even if we don't stop our senior brothers, I don't think you will be able to go up to this seventh-level exquisite pagoda of our Yunji Sect!"
Yang Gou frowned, he didn't know why he said such a thing, but Wang Pi had already smiled and said: "The Yunji Sect Linglong Pagoda is well-known in the world, how can Xiao Ke not know it? How dare he break in? Not to mention the various magical mechanisms in the seven-story pagoda, just this 'edge gate', the little terrible can't push it open." β
Qin Zheng was overjoyed: "This person is really knowledgeable!" but pretended to be surprised: "You...... You actually know about Yuanmen?"
Yang Gou had already guessed that Qin Zheng was tempting Wang Pi to probe the news at this time, so he hurriedly helped, but shouted: "Senior brother is so rude! Lord Wang is the son of Prime Minister Wang, and he has a family history, how can he not even have this bit of knowledge!"
Qin Zheng snorted and said, "I don't believe it!Well, he may just hit by mistake and called the right name!" Pointing at Wang Pi, he said: "I'll take another test for you, what is called Yuanmen? If you can make sense, I will obey you!"
Wang Pi said with a smile: "The so-called edge gate is a kind of mechanism door setting in the occult arts, and the person who sets the door sets a limit, and people with specific conditions must be able to open the door in a specific way." For example, the Tongzi Gate is set to be entered only by pure yang children, and the Birthday Gate, which requires people to enter at a certain time. β
Yang Gou nodded again and again when he heard this, and praised: "Lord Wang is really knowledgeable. Pointing to the Linglong Pagoda, he said: "Now that the words are spoken, Lord Wang might as well guess what kind of edge the Linglong Pagoda is in this gate, and how it must be pushed open." β
Wang Pi looked forward and calculated for a moment, pointed to the two horns of the tower gate, and said: "If Wang's guess is good, then this door must be a specific person, and the two horns on this door can be pushed open with both hands. β
When Yang Gou heard this, he praised it: "Amazing, amazing! Lord Wang is so knowledgeable!" glared at Qin Zheng and said, "From now on, I will let you know what it means to have a heaven outside the sky." β
Wang Pi didn't stay long on the mountain before leaving.
After he left, Zhu Rong came out of the shadows and said: "It turns out that this is a marginal door, but I don't know what kind of person can push it open, and then I will go to the 'read' word hole to flip through the classics to see if Qingyangzi has any other records." β
I was going to take Qin Zheng to "read" the word hole to turn the book, but I couldn't find him left and right, opened the Xuanguang Well and looked at it, and after looking for a long time, Yang Hook said: "This kid is very enthusiastic about entering the Linglong Tower, take a look at the Tianfeng after tomorrow." β
As soon as he took a look at the Tianfeng after that, he saw Qin Zheng standing in front of the Linglong Pagoda, sinking his waist and holding his horse, holding the horns of the tower gate with both hands, and he was straining, Zhu Rong scolded with a smile: "This idiot! If he can push this gate open, he will ...... that day."
Before he finished speaking, he saw that Qin Zheng's body was faintly purple, echoing the tower gate, Yang Gou hurriedly turned closer, and saw that the tower gate was being pushed open by Qin Zheng little by little.
Yang Gou sighed and said, "Ouch! I didn't expect that it was really him who had a relationship with this tower gate!"
Zhu Rong said: "Yes, he carried the body of the green sheep, this is most likely the key to entering the Linglong Tower, when the three of us pushed the tower door that day, he was just helping on the side, if he had let him hold the horns of the sheep and push the door head-on, maybe the door would have been opened a long time ago, why wait for more than a month!"
While the two were talking, they hurried towards Hou Tianfeng, and Yang Gou shouted: "The benefits of this Linglong Pagoda are shared by those who see it, don't let this kid swallow it alone!"
But when he arrived at the peak of the day after tomorrow, in front of the Linglong Tower, the gate had already been closed, and Ren Zhu Rong Yang Hook pushed and shouted, and there was no reaction inside, Yang Gou said angrily: "This stinky boy has no conscience!
Zhu Rong said: "The interior of this Linglong Pagoda is very dangerous, he went in alone, it is difficult to say whether it is a blessing or a curse." β
At that time, Qin Zheng got Wang Pi's revelation, and he was stunned in front of the door of Linglong Pagoda for a long time, so he tried to concentrate his energy, grabbed the two horns and pushed the door, but the door really let him push it open. A purple gas floated out of the purple gas in the door, like a fairy cloud, he was surprised and delighted, and stepped into the cloud.
At this time, the base layer of the Linglong Pagoda is completely different from before they were forced out, this layer is ten sides and ten corners, and the shape of the garden tower seen from the outside is different, and it is open and wide, there are ten zhang square circles, and I was taken aback: "When I look at it from the outside, this tower is not so big! Is this also an illusion?"
In addition to the smoke in the tower, there is also a bright yellow light shining on the entire base, and in the alternation of light and mist, Qin Zheng found that the lines of the original mottled and falling murals have also become complete and clear, as if they have just been re-carved and colored. There are two circles carved on the ground, the first circle is one zhang in diameter, the second circle is three zhang in diameter, if the edge of the pagoda is the outermost circle, then the three circles are centered on the futon located in the center of the base. The wall has ten sides and ten corners, except for the side of the gate and the corner blocked by the ladder, and in front of each corner on each side floats a night pearl the size of a broad bean, and those bright yellow lights are emitted by these eighteen night pearls. Under the night pearl, there is a golden armor god standing in each.
Qin Zheng opened his mouth and shouted: "Qingyang Zhenren, disciple Qin Zheng has entered the tower to seek the Fa." He called twice, but there was no response, so he walked towards the tower ladder, which was located opposite the gate, and Qin Zheng had just stepped on the first level, and he heard many loud voices shouting in unison: "Who is in the battle!"
With a pop, the eighteen night pearls suddenly brightened ten times, and under the illumination of this bright light, the eighteen golden-armored gods actually besieged Qin Zheng together.
