Chapter 140: The Demon Monument
Chapter 140: The Demon Monument
Long before the establishment of the Da Ying Dynasty, Longhu Mountain began to set up demon monuments in various parts of Kyushu as a deterrent and sense of evil things.
For hundreds of years, after the painstaking work of the dragon and tiger Taoist priests of the past dynasties, at least half of the land of Kyushu has been buried with demon monuments, and these thousands, or even tens of thousands, of the demon monuments have woven a demon suppression sky net, ensuring peace and tranquility in the world.
For a long time, Xianyang City has been the land of the true dragon loved by all dynasties, which made Xianyang once the imperial capital of the three dynasties. Because of this, Xianyang City and its surroundings are particularly majestic. And with dragon qi restraint, under normal circumstances, it is absolutely difficult to breed demonic things. So before that, Xianyang City was not set up by the masters of Longhu Mountain.
However, in recent days, because the demon saint has infiltrated Xianyang City, it is estimated that it is because of the request of the imperial court to set up a demon monument in Xianyang City in Longhu Mountain. The location was chosen near the West City Gate, which is closest to Lishan.
It's just that unlike in the past, the people in charge of setting up the monument this time are not ridiculously high dragon and tiger real people, but two young Taoist priests in their early sixteens.
The material of the stele is excellent, it is said that the imperial court specially moved back from the top of Kunlun Xianshan, because the stone shape resembles a dragon's head, so it was placed in the imperial garden by the emperor of the Ji family, but because of the setting of the demon stele this time, it was moved out of the palace.
In an inconspicuous corner near the West City Gate, the people of the imperial court first buried eighty percent of the stone tablets they carried into the ground, and the remaining two percent were naked and exposed on the ground, which was used for dragon and tiger Taoist priests to engrave Taoist talismans.
After the stone tablet in the shape of the dragon's head was properly embedded, the soldiers who were originally responsible for the security of the palace retreated to twenty steps away and formed a circle, just protecting the stone tablet and the dragon and tiger Taoist priests inside, so as not to be disturbed and miss the big thing when engrave and cast spells.
Next to the stele, a middle-aged Taoist priest in a gray robe held a peachwood sword in his arms, standing in front of the stele with a calm expression, but a pair of eyes fell on the two young Taoist priests in front of the stele with satisfaction.
The two young Taoist priests looked the same, they were none other than Qiao Tianqiaodi, the twin Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain.
At this moment, Qiao Tianqiao was holding a golden talisman pen in his hand, and he was concentrating on carving various mysterious patterns or ancient characters on the stone stele.
Just like when the two of them wanted to arrest Zhao Qingying on the street before, a pattern, or even a text, was divided into two halves to complete, Qiao Tian was responsible for the upper half, and Qiao Di was responsible for the lower half.
The two of them didn't move fast, but they began to engrave at dawn, and now that twilight is approaching, a lot has been completed in the end, at least eighty percent.
But in fact, the so-called unfast movements of the two were only seen by soldiers such as twenty paces away, and it was only in the eyes of the soldiers who walked twenty paces away that they knew how fast the two young Taoist priests were.
You must know that the setting up of the Demon Monument is not simply engraved with some Taoist patterns and golden texts on it, there are many doorways in it, among which Taoism attaches the most importance to the fit with the way of heaven, which is particularly critical here. At the same time, this is the hardest point to do.
In fact, the reason why the Demon Monument can suppress the evil things is not the golden inscriptions and patterns on the stone tablet, but the mysterious connection between it and the Heavenly Dao, which can make the Heavenly Dao Law hidden in the stele, and then used by the Dragon and Tiger Taoist priests who are the most refined channel methods.
Hu Huo, who had been nailed to the spot like a wooden stake and had not moved all day, finally couldn't help but ask the general on the side, and said: "General, how did my subordinates hear that setting up a demon monument has always been something that only a high Taoist can do, especially this one of our Xianyang, which can only be done by Taoist real people, but how can Longhu Mountain let two little doll Taoist priests do it, and just now I saw them squatting on the ground in a daze for a while, how do you look at how unreliable?"
The general didn't move at all, but his eyes rolled slightly, he glared at the former obliquely, and said: "You little rabbit cub just stand honestly for Lao Tzu, where do you come from such, they are unreliable? Could it be that you are a little rabbit cub who is reliable?"
Hu Lou smiled, but because he lowered his voice, it sounded like a male duck was calling.
The general squinted slightly, looked at the two young Taoist priests, and said softly: "In the early years, when I was not transferred to Xianyang, well, it was about sixteen years ago, when I served as a captain in Huitou City, not far from Longhu Mountain. There was a family in the city who gave birth to twins when the sun was shining."
Hu Lou on the side quietly calculated in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "General, sixteen years ago, wouldn't it be the year of the sun? If you say this, isn't the pair of twin baby boys born when you are in the sun and the moon in the sun and the sun in the yang year? That is the legendary pure yang person, my subordinates have heard people say that the heart of the pure yang body is golden, they are born to restrain demons and evils, if they can attain the great way, they can ascend to the position of golden immortal in one step." ”
The general glanced at it obliquely, nodded imperceptibly, and then said: "That's right, but there has always been such a saying, saying that pure yang people are contrary to the way of heaven and morality, and it has always been extremely difficult to survive, and the twin baby boys are also unlucky, and the two of them share a heart."
Hearing this, Hu Lou couldn't help muttering in his heart, thinking, isn't this person just waiting for a heart, how to make two people share a heart, and how can two people share a heart, could it be that the chests of the two are connected?"
Hu Lou's mind involuntarily appeared with the picture of two conjoined baby boys.
I only heard the general continue to say: "The two of them share the same heart, although such a thing is rare, but it has not happened before, but no conjoined baby has ever survived, even if it survives for a few years, it will not escape the doom of both of them after all." ”
Hu Lou asked softly, "The general, did the two baby boys survive?"
"Survived. The general looked slightly in a trance, and said: "At that time, there was a Taoist priest with white hair in the city, and later I learned from others that the Taoist priest came from the Taoist ancestral court Longhu Mountain, and his seniority was extremely high. The old man went straight to the family's house and said that he could save the baby boy. Then he stayed in the room all night, and when it was dawn the next day, the baby's parents finally couldn't help but want to go into the house to find out, but the door was suddenly opened from the inside, and the old man was holding a baby boy in his left and right hands."
"It's really separated?!" Not only Hu Lou was shocked when he heard it, but the rest of the soldiers were also quite surprised when they heard it, and felt a little unbelievable.
Hu Lou's brain twitched, and he blurted out and asked, "General, are the two baby boys dead or alive after they are separated?"
The general paused slightly, couldn't help but glance at the former, and scolded angrily: "You have a fucking brain, if you die, will the old man still dare to come out?"
Hu Lou smiled and agreed: "Yes, otherwise, it is estimated that the old real person will be nervous in the morning." ”
The general let out a big sigh and didn't bother to bother with the idiot again.
The general continued: "Because the body was separated by the old man by means of gods and ghosts, the heart was naturally divided into two, and it stands to reason that he would never survive, and I don't know if the old man was prepared in advance, and found two things like heart goggles, which covered half of the heart."
Hu Lou was in a fugue for no reason, thinking that those two goggle-like things must be the bottom treasure of Longhu Mountain. After thinking about it, this guy actually started the idea of heart guards.
When he came back to his senses, he heard the general say: "Later, when the two baby boys were six years old, the old man returned to the city again, took the two baby boys who were rumored to have golden hearts, and brought them back to the Dragon and Tiger Mountain. ”
Hu Lou suddenly realized and said in surprise: "Could it be that the two pure yang baby boys that the general talked about are those two little Taoist priests?!"
The general nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, it's the two of them." ”
All the soldiers, including Hu Lou, couldn't help but smack their tongues, and when they looked at the two childish young Taoist priests who had not retreated, there was still a little bit of previous doubt, replaced by respect, and even awe.
The next day, that is, when he was fourteen ugly, Qiao Tianqiao finished engraving.
At the moment when the monument was completed, some people in Xianyang City inadvertently saw the direction of the West City Gate, and there was a flash of golden light.
Somewhere in the city, Gongye Ling's heart suddenly sank, and there was a faint feeling of discomfort.
In addition, in an inn in the city, Zhao Qingying, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes, and the delicate box containing the night pearl on the pillow trembled slightly.
