Chapter 103 The incense lamp leads directly to the Ming Emperor's Palace
Tong Fei and Da Fei came to the old pharmacist's treehouse, only to see the old pharmacist busy in the house with his head down.
There is an octagonal altar near the big medicine pod, and there are eight strange lamps on each of the eight corners of the altar, emitting different colors of light. In the center of the altar is a strange boulder, white as jade, but there are strange patterns on it, and there are a total of nine holes, exuding a strange light.
"Master, what is this?" Da Fei and Tong Fei both felt very strange and couldn't help but ask.
"Well, you're here?"
The old medicine master did not directly answer Tong Fei's question, but lowered his head and was busy putting strange herb powder on the lamp of the octagonal altar. Every time I put some in, the lamps glow strangely, and at the same time, the room is filled with a special fragrance. And the halo on the stone is even more confusing.
What is this? Tong Fei's face became a little solemn.
Tong Fei searched all his memories, and there was no mention of it in any of the rituals of the immortal cultivation realm. I don't know what the old pharmacist is up to. Whether it was the memories provided by Ji Rong or Kang Jinlong, it proved that what the old medicine master did was more like some kind of mysterious witchcraft. Because in ancient witchcraft, strange herbs and spices were indeed used to perform some kind of mysterious sacrifice to communicate with the spirits.
At last the old medicine man stood still, babbling in an incomprehensible language, as if some kind of mysterious incantation.
Maya Ran...... Augustus...... Nayuasra ...... Montaf Arlang ......"
Hearing this incantation, Tong Fei suddenly remembered the incantation that Jin Da had recited when he was praying in Fu Village. How can it be the same?
Looking at the halo on the stone again, Tong Fei let go of his spiritual eyes, it didn't matter what he saw, Tong Fei was suddenly a little stunned, these are seven colors! Not only that, he also faintly saw a lilac shadow appear in the nine orifices of the stone.
"This ...... Isn't this the strange flower that exists in my eyebrows?"
The seven branches, as if magical, began to stretch slowly, in different directions, and at the same time the illusory bones slowly bloomed......
Soon a glimmering doorway appeared in the void. There was some kind of mysterious summoning from the doorway.
The old medicine master stopped the spell, turned his head to Tong Fei and Da Fei and said, "Come with me!" The voice was obviously a little hoarse, obviously consuming a lot of mental effort.
Then he turned and stepped into the mysterious door of light.
Tong Fei and Da Fei looked at each other, but in the end, they followed into the light gate.
In front of him, it was as if he had come to a huge palace, with high steps stretching to the clouds, and in the distance, the golden gates of the palace could be seen.
"Where is this, master?"
The old pharmacist said: "This is the Ming Emperor Terrace. It is the ancestral shrine of the Fangri Rabbit Clan. ”
"Ancestral Temple, I've never been here!" said Da Fei blankly.
The old pharmacist shook his head and said: "Rabbit Venerable, don't ask more, you will understand in a while, I can only tell you that only when the King of Water Spirit Ginseng returns to Yuquan, under the guidance of the Hundred Flower Lanterns, we can return to the Ming Emperor Terrace to listen to the hearing of the ancestors!"
Patriarch hearings?
Da Fei was even more dazed, but his eyes were full of anticipation for the towering Golden Palace. Tong Fei too, he seemed to feel that there was some kind of power in the golden palace that was attracting him.
The two followed the old medicine master up the stairs and came to the front of the golden hall.
"Isn't this the big hall in the depths of the medicine garden?" At the beginning, the big hall was almost destroyed in the bloody explosion, but this big hall was full of golden light and more solemn.
"Well, the stone hall was built in the style of here. This is the real Ming Emperor's Palace. ”
Come on, the old medicine master took the first step and stepped into the golden light of the main hall. Tong Fei and Da Fei followed, and in a flash, they had entered a hall of golden light, as if it was the palace hall, and on the throne in the center, a tall golden-robed man was sitting in the center, and beside him were two blonde boys.
When Tong Fei looked at this golden-robed man, he immediately felt a sense of heavenly power. As if facing a beetle snake that day, Tong Fei couldn't help but secretly say, "Is it really a god?"
The old pharmacist led the kneeling, and Tong Fei and Da Fei also knelt down.
"Well, here we are!" the golden-robed man did not open his mouth, but his mighty voice echoed in the hall, "Ten thousand years have passed! I can't give you riches, I can't give you immortality, but I can give you courage. Fight for me! I need you! wash away the shame of yesterday and be wary of the dangers of the future......"
At last the old medicine man stood up, but the voice kept echoing, as if it was chattering, and it never stopped.
"All right, all of you get up, this is just a memory of the ancestors, if you are interested, you can listen to it all the time, you can grow your courage and strength. ”
Tong Fei looked up at the golden-robed man and the golden-haired boy, and sure enough, there was no real life, but light energy.
The old medicine master stood up and said eloquently: "Our Qinglong Domain originally had seven major races: the Horned Wood Jiao, the Kangjin Dragon, the Di Tu Raccoon, the Heart Moon Fox, the Tailed Fire Tiger, the Kei Water Leopard, and our Fang Ri Rabbit. But in the past 10,000 years, except for our rabbit race, all other races have died out. Even the three kings of the once powerful Jiaomu Jiao, Kang Jinlong and Xinyue Fox have long since become dry bones and no trace is known. You may still be able to see some of their descendants in the wilderness, but they are no longer pure primitive species, and even if they are incarnated, they will not be able to continue the lineage like us......"
"Is there only the rabbit clan?" Tong Fei had some doubts: "Isn't there still a water leopard?" and a moon fox. ”
The old medicine man shook his head and said, "That Kei Shui Leopard Clan hides in the hot spring all day long, but in fact, it has long lost its mind, and it is almost no different from a beast. As for the Xinyue Fox, you must also know that Fairy Child is just a grass puppet. So if you want to say that races exist, only we rabbit tribes!"
"The Xinyue Fox is a grass and tree puppet?" When Tong Fei heard this, he couldn't help but think of the blue-skinned fox he killed in the wolf camp, and later turned into a grass and wood puppet. Tong Fei thought it was made by the Heart Moon Fox King.
The old pharmacist then explained, and Tong Fei knew that in fact, the Xinyue Fox Clan had already lost its population, and even the powerful Fox King had already turned into dry bones, in the Fox King Cave in Longbei Mountain. As early as more than a hundred years ago, when the old rabbit Venerable Fang Xuangong was there, the Fox King Cave was the secret testing ground of the Venerable and the secret mage. It is usually sealed and opened when needed. Because the puppets in it are extremely powerful, the general generals don't know about it, and the old medicine master followed the Venerable back then, so they have also heard about it.
"Is the Fox King really dead?" asked Tong Fei in surprise.
The old medicine master bowed slightly, and said, "Although I only heard from the old venerable, I haven't seen it in person. But Xiantong, think about it, if the fox king really still exists, how can he allow you to kill his clone?"
When Tong Fei heard this, he immediately felt very reasonable. Speaking of details, Tong Fei has been muttering in his heart in the past few days, after the puppet was killed by himself that day, there was no movement since then, and he has never seen anything else. Tong Fei has been secretly worried. Now that he heard the old pharmacist explain like this, he suddenly realized.
The old medicine master continued: "I have heard that the best thing the Xinyue Fox Clan is at is puppetry, and there are a lot of grass and wood puppets left in the Fox King's Cave. It's been a long time, and the puppet probably has given birth to some intelligence. His Holiness said that the mana of those puppets was very powerful. The Fox King Cave is very dangerous, and if you don't build a foundation, you can't enter and explore. So back then, the rabbit sealed the cave. I guess that more than 100 years have passed, and the seal must have been loosened, so that some puppets will come out to make trouble. ”
"Could this be a threat?" asked Tong Fei worriedly.
"That's what I'm worried about, so I'm coming to you today, first, to tell the history of the past, and second, to discuss how to remove the Fox King Cave. The old pharmacist said, "However, this matter should wait a little, I have more important things to tell Rabbit Zun." ”
Of course, Tong Fei understood that since Lao Yao had led him and Da Fei to the Ancestral Hall, he naturally had more important things to say. So he nodded and said, "Master, you speak!"
The old medicine master cleared his throat and continued to Da Fei and Tong Fei: "Then I'll explain why the race in the Qinglong Domain is only the problem of our rabbit clan. Before I do, though, I'll tell you the story of the Emperor. Saying that, the old pharmacist deliberately looked at Da Fei, and it seemed that his next words were specially said to Da Fei: "Rabbit Venerable, you must know that this is also the old Venerable Fang Xuan's substitution." ”
When Da Fei heard this, his expression suddenly became cautious. Then the old pharmacist began to tell the story.
The story told by the old medicine master took place in the Shura realm, and it is said that there were no nine heavens and ten earths in the Shura realm back then, only the six realms of Brahma. Wahuang resides in the Huangtian and rules the Six Domains.
In a certain year, in the Middle Ages, there was a monk named Wuzai. When Wu Zheng was born, he was out of phase. It is said that his whole body was like jade, and his eyes shone brightly, shining through the hall like a bright lamp. Relatives and friends rushed to tell each other, saying that the gods had come to the world. This incident alarmed the Lord of Brahma, and Emperor Wa sent someone to pick him up and accept him as a disciple.
After 120,000 years, he became the Emperor of the Middle Ages and was called the Emperor of Haotian.
This emperor strives for perfection in his work, and his subordinates are even more strict with the law, and he is also quite demanding of himself.
Emperor Ming's great apprentice Ju Xi, talented and intelligent, Emperor Ming loved him for ten minutes and thought that he was the heir to his mantle. Once he practiced the method of fire desire in Litian, he accidentally went mad, and then became ferocious, causing the heavenly fire to kill countless living beings. Emperor Ming was furious and ordered someone to arrest him and punish him.
According to the law, Ju Xi deserves death, but the Ming Emperor is really reluctant. In the end, Emperor Ming still deprived Ju Xi of the immortal root, relegated it to the five turbid evil worlds, and turned into evil ghosts. This is already an extremely serious punishment, but after all, he was not killed, which also violated the law set by the Ming Emperor, and the Ming Emperor also blamed himself for this, gave up his hard-won cultivation, and entered the animal path by himself.
......
Hearing this, Tong Fei couldn't help but feel very sorry. What kind of existence is that, people just give up like that, and they still enter the way of animals, which is really incomprehensible.
When the old medicine master said this, he looked at Da Fei and asked, "What do you think, Rabbit Venerable?"
Da Fei said with admiration: "Master, this Ming Emperor is really great, he blames others and himself, and the law is strict, and he can really set an example for the world." ”
Tong Fei shook his head and said: "Although Emperor Ming is clean, he is really a little too much, I think he is too strict with his apprentices, and even more so to himself." Although he said that he had maintained his reputation, he was not of benefit to others. ”
The old pharmacist also sighed gloomily and said, "What the fairy boy said is good. Although from the perspective of cultivating morality, the Ming Emperor is so strict with himself that he can really be the world's surface. But for the way of kings, it is not advisable. As a king, he has been in charge of the domain for 120,000 years, and there are countless subordinates, although he can justify his name by punishing himself, he has lost the righteousness of the world. You must know that he gave up, there was no one in the world, the dragons had no leader, the Middle Ages were suddenly in chaos, demons took the opportunity to run rampant, and the people were poisonous, but the harm was far better than the sentence of the year. ”
Tong Fei nodded after hearing this: "Yes, it seems that this Ming Emperor has indeed done something foolish." ”
The old pharmacist took this opportunity to say to Da Fei: "Rabbit Venerable, you should learn a lesson. You are a rabbit, you should think of the prosperity of our race, even if you have mistakes, you should think of the overall situation, and you don't need to blame yourself too much. Back then, you fell into the way of the villain, and the introduction of ecstasy radish caused disaster, but there was nothing wrong with introducing fairy radish itself. Now that the Xianluo Gu is poisonous, the people of the rabbit clan can use this fruit to make it, which is a fortunate thing! You must remember that as the king, personal integrity is small, and the stability of the world is big. ”
Da Fei listened to the old pharmacist's words, lowered his head and was silent.
And the old pharmacist continued to tell his story.
The old pharmacist told Tong Fei and Da Fei that this Ming Emperor was actually the ancestor of Fang Ritu, and that after he depreciated himself, he went through the five turbid and evil worlds, and finally realized the suffering of all beings, and also understood that his decision back then was really a bit excessive.
But the big mistake has been made, and the medieval world is dead. The master and apprentice of the year became enemies.
After that sentence turned into an evil ghost, he hated it and eventually became a demon. After returning to Shura, he took advantage of the chaos in the world at that time, cultivated his own power, poisoned the common people, and deliberately prevented the Ming Emperor from returning to the Shura realm.
In order to break the conspiracy of Ju Xi, Emperor Ming planned to contact the seven major races of the Qinglong Domain and kill back to the Shura Domain together. But at that time, the two Jiaolong clans looked like they were separated, the Xinyue Fox clan was only watching from the wall, and the other races were either vying for power or calculating with each other.
In the end, the Ming Emperor's plan for a joint plan fell through.
But Emperor Ming was still unwilling and led the children of the rabbit clan to kill back to the Shura realm, but he was alone and was finally outnumbered, so that he was finally defeated and fell.
After the fall of the Ming Emperor, he left behind a legacy and a place of refuge. Hope for the latecomers, hoping that the descendants of the rabbit clan can inherit his legacy, strive for self-improvement, and plot to destroy the demons. It's a pity that the Qinglong Domain encountered a natural disaster after that, and the aura gradually died out, and there were no more talented people among the rabbit clan.
Until 10,000 years ago, the heavens and the earth changed greatly, the catastrophe of destruction came, and all the races in the Qinglong Domain faced a catastrophe of extermination. Only the rabbit clan was able to retain its inheritance because the Ming Emperor's Palace was used as a refuge. While other races were almost exterminated. Most of the remnants were deprived of their minds and became wild beasts.
But the rabbit clan has never forgotten the legacy of Emperor Ming and is dedicated to the pursuit of strength. When the wolf clan entered the Qinglong Domain, the reason why they received the generous help of the Rabbit Clan was actually because the Rabbit Zun had the heart to join forces in order to kill back to the Shura Domain. But I didn't expect that in the end, I became an enemy.
Hearing this, Tong Fei finally understood the beginning and end of everything, he didn't expect that the rabbit clan actually had such a foundation, and there was such a big revenge and mission.
However, Tong Fei still has a lot of puzzles about the catastrophe of heaven and earth mentioned by the pharmacist. All races except the rabbit race are deprived of their minds, is this a natural disaster or **? Could it be that all this is the conspiracy of that sentence?
I think of the beetle snake again, and in order to kill back to the Shura Domain, I have been fighting hard. Could it be for this sentence too?
Tong Fei didn't want to talk to the old medicine master about the beetle snake, and secretly thought that he would only find a chance to ask for advice when he returned to Daosheng Forest and met the beetle snake in the future.
"Okay, I'll stop here about the ancestors, you can meditate here, listen to the instructions of the ancestors, bathe in the glory of the past, and you will gain infinite power. ”
The old pharmacist said to Tong Fei again: "Fairy child, you can also practice and meditate here, the aura here is much richer than outside, and cultivation is twice the result with half the effort." If it is not for the Rabbit Zun Dharma, it will not be able to enter. That's why it's a rare opportunity. ”
Of course, Tong Fei knew that this time, he was able to enter this golden hall by borrowing the convenience of Da Fei. Immediately thanked the old pharmacist.
The old pharmacist waved his hand and said: "Fairy child, don't be polite, after all, this Ming Emperor's Palace has been reopened, and you have made great contributions." ”
The old pharmacist finally told Tong Fei and them, "You have twelve hours, and when the incense lamp is extinguished, you will automatically be sent out of the main hall." I'm going back to guard the astrolabe for you. After you come out of the Fox King Cave, I will discuss it with you. As he spoke, the old pharmacist crushed an incense pill in his hand, and his figure disappeared suddenly.
In the golden hall of Nuoda, there are only two people left, Tong Fei and Da Fei, and the light and shadow of the Ming Emperor are endlessly told like Hong Zhong Dalu......
