Zhang Yu looked at the sea of bones, and the heat flow from there was still pouring into him, but he did not focus on absorbing it immediately, but checked himself.
Tianyi Chongshui made great achievements this time. Not only did he communicate with the two, but he also successfully resisted the invasion of the power of the alien god at the end. It really consumed a lot of money. At this moment, he had fallen into some kind of silence and could only wait for the next one.
Recovered on its own.
Although he had only been in contact with the silver ring for a short moment, most of the source energy that could be contained in his body was filled up at once, and he could be said to have gained a rich harvest that he had never received before.
You must know that since every chapter of his book has been about the Six True Seals, his divine energy has been exhausted every time he can't save much. It has never been as abundant as it is now.
With these divine essences, it is enough to complete the seal of "Right Self".
And once he gets the three yuan, he will be able to see his future clearly and understand how to get to the upper realm.
It's just that the depths of the land here are not suitable for practicing the exercises, so you have to wait until you go back before continuing.
After he pondered, he slowly fell in the sky and stood on top of a huge skeleton. He would not let go of the remaining source energy here.
However, there were too many bones and they were too scattered. He couldn't bear to go through them one by one, so he simply stood here and absorbed them.
As he gradually increased the intensity of his absorption, just three days later, all the bones containing source energy were turned into a large pile of bone powder.
He felt it again and saw that there was no more heat current, so he took a step, flew into the air, and returned to the white boat.
Returning to the main cabin, he turned to look at the scroll hanging on the bulkhead.
What's interesting is that it seems that all the pictures above have been re-shuffled and then moved to another position, and the previous picture with the Taoist priest in feather clothes and star crown can no longer be found.
He thought in his mind that it was probably because he used his own magical power to activate the picture scroll, which caused some predictions about him to appear on it.
However, this painting is obviously not omnipotent, but a future evolution based on already existing conditions.
For example, he first gained the memory of the alien god and had the idea of looking for the sleeping giant, and then this picture scroll connected him with the giant.
For another example, before the chaos monster transformed by Pang Li appeared, it did not appear on the picture. It was only when the person was chasing him that it was shown on it.
Although this painting is not as mysterious as imagined, it at least provides some kind of omen, and this omen currently seems to be very likely to happen.
But just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt something strange. When he looked up, he saw a scene emerging from the corner of the picture. But when he saw that scene, his eyes narrowed slightly, and at the same time, the entire picture
The scroll suddenly burned and then turned into countless black flakes floating down.
He stood in the main cabin and thought deeply for a long time. Then he returned to the main seat and turned the bow of the boat to the west. Before leaving, he looked down.
Many indigenous tribes migrating westward have prophecies that something powerful is about to wake up deep in the earth. Could it be the sleeping giant?
It's hard to say right now.
However, since the Dongting Protectorate has restored contact with the mainland, even if the Protectorate and Dongting Xuanfu cannot fight against each other, there are still Yujing and Xuanting behind them, so they will not be as isolated and helpless as they were back then.
When his thoughts changed, he turned his attention and drove the white boat back.
This time, because it was necessary to constantly check the routes and scenery in the memories of the natives, the flight was slower, and the way back was much faster. Even though there was the influence of the turbid tide, it took only two days to return to Ruiguang City.
After stopping on the rooftop of Bozhou, he got out of the flying boat and walked into the inner city.
It was now the end of December, and the New Year's Day was just one day away. There was already a strong festive atmosphere in the city.
Every household on the street hung red lanterns of creation, and the spacious stone avenue was bustling with people on both sides. Everyone was full of energy and neatly dressed.
Since Dongting regained contact with the mainland, since there were no threatening foreign enemies, the Duhu Mansion, like Qingyang, focused on eradicating old evils and improving people's livelihood. Over the past few years, the entire Duhu Mansion had become a
A new look.
As he was taking steps, there was a slight flash of light behind him, and Xu Chengtong appeared beside him and said respectfully: "Guard."
Zhang Yudao: "What's the matter?"
Xu Chengtong: "Reporting to the patrol, shortly after the patrol left many days ago, Xu was practicing in Qishan, but he was attacked by a monk who was suspected of having become a chaotic monster.
I and a Taoist friend from Xuanfu, Chen, worked together to deal with it and planned to capture it. However, two more monks came and rescued the man. We were afraid that the Protectorate and Xuanfu would be attacked, so we did not pursue it.
.
Later, I learned that a fleet of flying boats stationed on the ridge of Anshan Mountain sent a report saying that they noticed something flying from the top. It looked like a ball of black gas. I suspected it was the chaos monster."
After Zhang Yu heard this, he suddenly understood that there was indeed someone behind this chaotic monster. He said: "This chaotic monster must be looking for me. I have already killed it, so there is no need to worry about it anymore."
A look of surprise appeared on Xu Chengtong's face, and he said, "Are you actually looking for the patrol?" Then he showed disdain and said, "How could such monsters know that the patrol can do anything? They are really asking for their own death."
Zhang Yudao: "In the past few days, have the origins of those two Taoists been found out?"
Xu Chengtong said hurriedly: "Xuanfu found out where the two monks lived. It has been sealed off and is being investigated, but..." He whispered: "It can be inferred from the things left by that person.
It is very likely that he has some involvement with the Zhengqing lineage."
Zhang Yu's eyes flashed slightly and he said: "I understand."
Xu Chengtong added: "One more thing. Fellow Daoist Chen recognized that the identity of the chaotic monster was probably Pang Li, the original disciple of Ji Shouzhen. The Xuanfu suspected that Ji Shouzhen's senior brother Tai Zhengping was related to this matter, so he was arrested
He is under temporary custody."
Zhang Yudao: "Where is the person?"
Xu Chengtong: "It's in the house where Ji Shouzhen originally lived."
Zhang Yu nodded and let Xu Chengtong go. He went to the place where Taoist Ji originally lived. There were Xuanfu disciples guarding the door. These disciples all recognized him and knew that he wanted to find Tai Zhengping.
He was let in directly, but he still left his signature and seal according to the rules before he came in.
Tai Zhengping was sitting in the main hall with a depressed expression at this time. When he heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw Zhang Yu arriving, so he stood up and saluted, saying: "Zhang Xuanzheng."
Zhang Yu looked at him and said: "Fellow Taoist Tai, I met your nephew deep in Anshan a few days ago."
Tai Zhengping's heart sank, he took a breath, looked up at him, and said, "I wonder how he is?"
Zhang Yu stared at him for a moment and saw that his emotions were completely natural and not fake. He could tell that this matter had nothing to do with him, so he said: "At that time, I went alone to the depths of Anshan for something, but your nephew was chasing me.
He came up. At that time, he had turned into a chaotic monster, and there was no possibility of recovering his sanity. I naturally set out to destroy him, so as not to cause trouble and implicate others."
Tai Zhengping's lips trembled slightly, and he said dejectedly: "What Zhang Xuanzheng did is right and cannot be criticized. Tai has nothing to say, but..."
He said angrily: "I have only been away for more than half a month, how could my nephew turn into a chaotic monster? There must be someone playing tricks here!"
Zhang Yu said calmly: "There is indeed someone behind this matter who is secretly promoting it. We are currently investigating, but who it is has not yet been determined."
Tai Zhengping looked at him and said: "There is no conclusion? Does that mean there are clues?"
Zhang Yudao: "I can't speak clearly about this matter. Taoist Taoist Taoist friends can go to Xuan Mansion to inquire." After saying that, he raised his hand and saluted, turned around, faced the two disciples at the door, and said: "This person should be
No problem."
After the explanation, he went straight back to his residence in Taiyang Academy. Qingshu had taken care of him before he left and had been sorting out the arrangements here.
He saw a lot of things piled up at the door, and after asking Qing Shu, he found out that these were annual gifts sent from the Protectorate and the Academy, because there were so many people giving gifts, and they were all given by the car.
They can't even be placed in the cave, so they can only be piled outside.
He said: "It doesn't look good here, and it's also an obstruction. If you don't need it right now, you can move it to the white boat first."
Qingshu said: "Yes, sir."
Zhang Yu came directly to the rooftop, sat down in front of the shorter table, picked up the newspapers from the past few days and read through them. But not long after, something moved in his heart. He stood up, came to the edge of the platform, and looked at
Liu Guang walked over from a distance, and when he came closer, he said, "Brother Liu, why are you here?"
Liu Guang came closer, cupped his hand to him, and said with a smile: "I invited Brother Zhang to celebrate the New Year at Liu Mansion, but Brother Zhang didn't come, so I had no choice but to come here shamelessly."
Zhang Yudao: "Brother Liu, please come up and talk."
Liu Guang happily agreed. He walked into the house and walked to the platform. Standing here, he looked at the scenery outside and said with emotion: "I still remember that back then, the Protectorate had not yet restored contact with the mainland.
Brother Zhang and I are also here to watch thousands of fireworks and wish the world a prosperous summer. Now many years have passed and the scenery has changed, but this heart is still there."
Zhang Yu also nodded.
"That's right." After Liu Guang stood for a moment, he seemed to think of something, took out two coins from his sleeves, and said with a smile: "At this time, when I come to Brother Zhang's door, if I don't bring a gift, I'm afraid it will be laughed at. Zhang
Brother is a Taoist, so I am afraid of being tacky with ordinary gifts, so I gave this to you. I hope Brother Zhang won’t dislike it.”
Zhang Yu took it over and saw that these were two beautifully minted silver coins, but they were different from the Tianxia gold coins. They were in the style of ancient coins with holes in the middle, which means a round sky and a square place.
The four characters on the front are "reunion and stability", and the four characters on the back are "all people are happy together".
Liu Guangdao: "This is the Guihe coin. It was made after the return of the Duhu Mansion. At that time, the first batch of 375 coins was minted, which matched the number of the Tianxia Daxuan calendar that year. These two coins were the first among them.
If the coin is approved, I will give it to Brother Zhang."
Zhang Yu nodded, raised his sleeves and saluted, saying: "Brother Liu, I like this gift very much, so I accepted it."
Liu Guang smiled, then stretched out his sleeves and said, "Besides these, I didn't bring anything with me. I can only ask for a drink from Brother Zhang."
Zhang Yudao: "Since Brother Liu comes to my place, I should greet him."
At this time, although the skylight had not completely dimmed, the sound of firecrackers started to sound outside one after another. After a while, more bright fireworks exploded in the sky.
He turned around and saw brilliant fireworks reflected in his glassy eyes.
