On the way back to the hotel, Jianjian kept asking us what happened in the Huanglong Cave. I only said that we helped a demon dragon drive away the evil spirit in the body, and did not mention that the magic sword fused with me.
Of course, Jianjian didn't really care about what happened in Huanglong Cave. What he cared about most was whether there were any valuable treasures in Huanglong Cave. When he learned that there was only a demon dragon that was invaded by evil spirits,
When there was nothing, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
In the next few days, we stayed in the hotel waiting for news about Zhang Qingyuan. When I had nothing to do, I secretly checked the aura in my body, but I didn't find anything abnormal. The handle turned into golden light.
The Divine Sword does not seem to exist in my body. I can't help but mutter, maybe the Divine Sword is not integrated with me, everything is just mine.
It's just an illusion. Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little disappointed, but I also feel it is a relief. Over the years, I have gradually understood a truth. Sometimes having too much power may not be a good thing, because if you don't have the ability to control this power
, but I may be controlled by this force. And this is why I am worried about Wuchenzi.
On the third day after we explored Huanglong Cave, Zhang Qingyuan called Wen Qingshan. He told us that the head of Longhushan Taoist Temple and several Taoist priests had left today, and the chief Taoist priest had also agreed to go tomorrow.
Let's go to that Tai Chi point to have a look. However, it is a Taoist holy land after all, so we can't go alone. A Taoist disciple will accompany us.
Knowing that someone still had to accompany her, Jianjian couldn't help but sigh: "This is obviously spying on us!"
Wen Qingshan pondered for a moment, raised his head and said, "Just stay with us. Let's explore the terrain first, and then go by ourselves when we have the chance."
The next day, Zhang Qingyuan came to the hotel early in the morning and led us straight to the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.
Tianshi Mansion is located in Shangqing Ancient Town. Zhang Qingyuan introduced it to us on the way.
He told us that Longhushan Tianshi Mansion is different from Taoist temples in other places, because this ancient building complex covering an area of nearly 400 acres can be regarded as both a Taoist temple and a mansion. Longhushan
Zhengyi adopts a hereditary system
, the position of Heavenly Master has been passed down from generation to generation, and most of today's direct disciples are descendants of Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling. And this Heavenly Master's Mansion began with the fourth generation of Heavenly Master Zhang Sheng. It is the place where Zhang Sheng and all previous Heavenly Masters practiced.
It is also their daily life.
The entire Tianshi Mansion consists of the gate, lobby, back hall, private rooms, palaces, study rooms, gardens and other parts. It is very large in scale. There are forests of camphor trees in the courtyard, towering ancient trees, dense shade and greenery, and a quiet environment. In history,
It was once known as the "Fairy Capital" and "the first in the South".
Tianshi Mansion was destroyed by a fire during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. The existing buildings of about 6,000 square meters were mostly rebuilt and rebuilt during the Qianlong and Tongzhi periods of the Qing Dynasty.
Zhang Qingyuan led the three of us to meet the Taoist priest in charge. This Taoist priest is named Zhang Zhengfu. He is about sixty years old. He has gray hair and a goatee. He is wearing a green Taoist robe and looks like a fairy.
When he first met us, Zhang Zhengfu seemed lukewarm and indifferent. After Wen Qingshan offered to donate 100,000 yuan to Guanli, he immediately changed his face and became enthusiastic towards us.
A lot.
I couldn't help but think to myself: "It's said that masters regard money as dirt. It turns out that's the case."
Zhang Qingyuan had already told Zhang Zhengfu about the purpose of our trip. Of course, he didn't know our real purpose. He only said that we wanted to go to Tai Chi Point to see more. Zhang Zhengfu called a young Taoist priest to lead us there.
The valley where Tai Chi Point is located.
This valley is located at the southern foot of Tianmen Mountain, the highest peak of Longhu Mountain. It is still more than ten miles away from Tianshi Mansion. We drove to the vicinity of the valley. After getting off the car, the young Taoist priest led us on a small trail.
.
We walked along the winding trail, and the surrounding vegetation became more and more lush. It felt like we were entering a primitive forest. Zhang Qingyuan told us that because this valley was not open to me and inaccessible, everything remained relatively primitive.
State, many trees are hundreds or even thousands of years old.
After listening to Zhang Qingyuan's introduction, I couldn't help but feel relieved. Since most of the trees in this area are hundreds of years old, they are not so unfamiliar to Wuchenzi. It may help him find the place where the bone slips are hidden.
Place.
A group of people, led by a young Taoist priest, arrived in front of a very flat stone wall about seven or eight meters high and four or five meters wide. One of the young Taoist priests pointed at the stone wall and said to us: "This is the Yin and Yang Mirror of Heaven and Earth."
, if you reach a certain level of cultivation, you can see the future through this yin-yang mirror."
"Is it so magical?" The three of us were a little surprised. I stared at the stone wall carefully for a while, but I didn't see anything special. I couldn't help but thought to myself: "Looking at this stone wall, if it is smoother, it can be said to be a mirror.
To say that you can see into the future is really deceptive."
At this time, the young Taoist priest pointed to a stone crack about one meter wide not far away and said: "That is the Dragon Tiger Cave. Inside the cave is the place where Taoist priests practice in seclusion. Our ancestor is there."
Those who practiced in the cave and achieved enlightenment."
Wen Qingshan hurriedly asked: "Then can we go and have a look inside the cave?"
The young Taoist priest immediately waved his hand and said, "That's not okay! That is the place where our master retreats and practices. Non-disciples of our sect are not allowed to enter."
Without saying a word, Wen Qingshan immediately took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills that he had prepared long ago from his backpack and handed it to the young Taoist priest. He said with a smile: "We also want to see something, so please be accommodating, young master."
When the young Taoist priest saw the banknote in Wen Qingshan's hand, his eyes immediately glowed green, but he still seemed a little hesitant and did not immediately reach out to take it. Zhang Qingyuan struck while the iron was hot and said: "Boss Wen is the distinguished guest I invited.
, otherwise the Taoist priest in charge would not let you bring them here, and since they are already here, there is nothing wrong with going into the cave to have a look. As for the money, you can rest assured, I will naturally not tell anyone!
"
The young Taoist priest knew that Zhang Qingyuan was the nephew of the master, and after receiving his assurance, he took the stack of banknotes from Wen Qingshan's hand, waved his hand and said, "Follow me to the cave and have a look."
Bar."
I didn’t expect that Wen Qingshan’s money offensive would work again. I couldn’t help but sigh in my heart: “This world-famous Taoist holy land has long been stained with the smell of copper. People who practice Taoism can’t keep their minds clear of distracting thoughts. No wonder there are fewer and fewer of them now.
People can cultivate and attain the Tao."
I was also about to follow along and take a look inside the cave, but Wen Qingshan suddenly turned around and said to me: "Shi Yu, since you have claustrophobia, just wait outside!"
I was stunned for a moment, claustrophobia!? When did I have claustrophobia? I thought Wen Qingshan had remembered it wrong, and when I was about to argue, Wen Qingshan winked at me, and I realized that he
I deliberately said I wanted to go into the cave, but actually it was to distract this young Taoist priest so that I could have a chance to look for the scroll of bones left by Wu Chenzi.
I nodded immediately: "Okay! Then I'll wait outside!"
Wen Qingshan and Jianjian followed the young Taoist priest into the cave. When their footsteps could no longer be heard, I immediately summoned Wuchenzi from the stone tablet.
Wuchenzi looked around and said in surprise: "I didn't expect that five hundred years have passed and this place is still the same."
After hearing what Wuchenzi said, I was surprised and happy, and hurriedly asked: "Senior Wuchenzi, you should still remember the specific location where you buried the scroll, right?"
Wuchenzi thought for a while and said, "It should be nearby!"
"Where is it?" I couldn't help but feel anxious, because I didn't know when the young Taoist priest, Wen Qingshan and others would come out of the cave. I had to dig out the bone slips before they came out.
.
Wuchenzi looked around again, and suddenly seemed to find something. He raised his hand and pointed at a leafy tree not far away, and said, "That's the locust tree!"
"What happened to that locust tree?"
Wuchenzi said: "The location where Pindao buried the bone slips is related to the locust tree."
"You mean the bone slips are buried under that tree?"
I immediately ran towards the locust tree, but Wuchenzi stopped me again and said, "No! My benefactor misunderstood. Pindao only said it was related to this tree, not that he was buried under the tree."
"What does that mean?" I was a little confused.
"The location where Pindao buried the bone slips is four feet and nine feet away from this tree. If we draw a straight line between the ancient locust tree and the location where the bone slips are buried, this line will point directly to the yin and yang mirror of heaven and earth!"
As soon as I heard this, I didn't care so much, so I immediately took out a measuring ruler from my bag and stepped forward to measure it. However, after measuring for a while, I suddenly thought that the ancient measurement units were different from the current ones.
, the ancient one-foot was much shorter than the modern one-foot. For example, in the Shang Dynasty, one-foot was approximately equal to the current 165 centimeters. In this way, the height of a person is about one foot, and the title of "husband" is exactly
From this.
However, Wuchenzi lived in the Ming Dynasty, but I knew nothing about the measurement units of the Ming Dynasty. In a moment of desperation, I turned to Wuchenzi and asked: "Senior Wuchenzi, at that time, one foot equaled
How many meters?”
Wuchenzi was slightly startled: "How many meters is it?"
Only then did I realize that during the Ming Dynasty, there was probably no concept of weights and measures like "meter" at all! What should I do? Wen Qingshan might know, but it was not convenient to call him right now.
I thought for a moment and suddenly thought of Professor Dong. He is knowledgeable and an expert in ancient cultural relics. He must know this. So I immediately took out my mobile phone and dialed Professor Dong's number.
