After Yang Tuo took stock of the harvest, he got up and walked towards the two's cave.
Wuyi Mountain is listed as one of the thirty-six Taoist caves in later generations. It has an extraordinary atmosphere. The majestic mountains, lush trees all over the mountains, the vast blue sky and misty clouds are like a fairy painting, which is so beautiful.
In front of Wuyi Mountain Cave Heaven, mana is running on the eyes, and a formation covers it. I can see the Yin and Yang energy flowing on the formation, changing endlessly.
Sure enough, who doesn’t have a lock on their door?
Fortunately, this formation was recorded in the harvested jade slips, which is called "Yin and Yang Two Qi Formation". It sounds grand, but in fact it is just a simple inversion of the Yin and Yang formation.
Without the introduction of the jade slips, although the formation is not complicated, it is not something that Yang Tuo can easily decipher.
Now that you have the jade slip, you only need to follow the introduction on the jade slip, bypass various passes, and easily enter the cave.
There are many mountains in the cave sky, gurgling springs, dancing cranes, and dotted with exotic flowers and plants.
Yang Tuo took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and clear in his thoughts. The so-called Dharma couple's wealth and land are indeed indispensable.
Today, the Fa has the cultivation method passed down by Taoist ancestors, and there are also the cultivation jade slips left by Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao.
My companion, Jiang Ziya, taught me carefully to avoid all kinds of detours in my cultivation.
Cai has various elixirs and precious medicines accumulated by the two immortals for hundreds of years. The immortals need them, and they are already rare treasures for Yang Tuo who reconciles the realm of dragon and tiger.
Finally, this place, Wuyi Mountain Cave, has a radius of one hundred and twenty miles. Although it is not as good as other fairy lands, it is still a first-class blessed land for gods.
Now, Yang Tuo is lacking in everything. Just calm down and practice hard, and you will definitely be able to improve your cultivation to a higher level.
At this point, Yang Tuo settled down in Wuyi Mountain, meditating, practicing Qi, and taking elixirs every day. Within a few months, he reached the state of "pushing away obstacles and filling up the gap".
This is the last state before becoming an immortal. It only waits for the physical body to be polished and perfected. When the essence is full, the energy is sufficient, and the spirit is complete, when the time comes, you can achieve the soul, attain the Tao and become an immortal.
On this day, Yang Tuo was practicing, and suddenly something happened in his heart. He counted with his fingers and found that it was the day when Jichang, the Marquis of Xibo, returned to his country after a disaster.
Yang Tuo stood up slowly and thought to himself: "Now, the time has come, it's time for me to go down the mountain."
It is true that Yang Tuo has basically digested the harvest from Wuyi Mountain. There will not be much improvement in a short time, so he decided to go out of the mountain and enter Xiqi to seize the opportunity.
Yang Tuo finished cleaning up and walked out slowly. He saw his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, his hair tied in a bun, wearing a green robe and wearing cloud shoes.
There are two swords on his back, one green and one purple. Because of the colors, Yang Tuo named them Qing Suo and Zi Ying, which happened to be the names of the purple and green swords of Chang Mei Zhenren.
Because the two swords were just ordinary magic weapons, they were not considered spiritual treasures and could not be included in the Zi Mansion. So they were carried on their backs for easy use.
Yang Tuo left Wuyi Mountain and drove Dunguang to Lintong Pass.
On this day, Yang Tuo's light fell on a mountain outside Lintong Pass.
Sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain, facing Chaoge, and counting with his fingers, he knew that Xibohou would be arriving soon.
Sure enough, not long after, he saw a person riding a white horse, galloping towards him. Yang Tuo thought to himself, "Is this person Xibohou Jichang?"
So he stood up and asked, "Who is there at the foot of the mountain? Why are you running so fast?"
When Ji Chang heard someone shouting, he looked up and saw a person standing on the top of the mountain. The Taoist had an immortal demeanor, and when he saw it, he felt that a real immortal had come to the world, and his feelings increased greatly.
Jichang hurriedly replied: "Little Wang Jichang, don't you know who he is?"
When Yang Tuo heard that it was Ji Chang who was facing him, he hurriedly drove down in the light. When Ji Chang saw the Taoist driving down in the light, he knew that he was an expert in Taoism and did not dare to neglect him.
Yang Tuoji first said: "This is Yang Tuo, a poor Taoist who was promoted to Zhen Yuan and transformed into Dongtian Qi practitioner in Wuyi Mountain!"
Ji Chang said: "Why did the Taoist call me?"
Yang Tuo replied: "I saw the wise prince galloping on his horse. Why?"
Ji Chang replied: "It's just because King Zhou let me out of Youli, granted me the title of King Wen, and praised me for three days. King Wucheng Huang Feihu persuaded me to leave early, but I neglected to take care of it for a while, so I fled my official position and returned home. The court was furious and sent troops
I came to pursue you, but now my pursuers are approaching, so I galloped on my horse."
Yang Tuo said: "The virtuous king should not be filtered. I am willing to help the virtuous king retreat from his pursuing troops and return to his homeland in the west."
When Ji Chang heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Thank you so much, Taoist Priest, for saving us."
As he was talking, he saw Yin and General Lei leading their troops to pursue him.
When Yang Tuo saw this, he smiled slightly and said, "Please see my methods, King Xian."
As he spoke, he put his left hand behind his back, made a sword gesture with his right hand, and pointed to the sky.
Yang Tuo shouted softly: "Go!"
I saw the long green sword flying up behind me, the light passing by, and there was a loud noise from the top of the mountain in front of me, and huge rocks rolled down.
Yin was defeated, and General Lei Kai quickly reined in his horse and stopped. The mountains were filled with rocks falling like rain, and all the troops did not dare to move forward.
This move looks majestic and immortal. In fact, it uses the method of controlling objects to control the magic sword in the same way as the magic weapon.
In this day and age, the art of sword immortality seems to have not yet emerged. Yang Tuo spent several months in Wuyi Mountain and cultivated this method, which he temporarily used to control the flying sword so that it would not be used like a weapon in his hand.
When you become successful in your cultivation, you may be able to create a real sword cultivation method, defeating all kinds of swords with one sword. You may not even be able to become the ancestor of the swordsman!
Then, Yang Tuo wrapped Ji Chang and the white horse under his crotch with the escaping light, and flew away to the west.
Generals Yin and Lei saw Ji Chang being wrapped up by a man and turning into light and running away. Knowing that they could not catch up, they had no choice but to turn their horses and go back to Chaoge to resume their lives.
It is indeed said that Yang Tuo turned on the escape light and flew away in the air. He did not press the escape light until he passed the fifth pass. However, he was not far from Xiqi, so he lowered the escape light and walked slowly with Ji Chang.
It is not said that Yang Tuo and King Wen are returning to Xiqi, but it is said that Lei Zhenzi was ordered by his master to leave Yuzhu Cave in Zhongnan Mountain and go to Lintong Pass to rescue his father.
After arriving at Lintong Pass, he looked left and right, but his father was nowhere to be seen. After a long delay, he had to go back to Zhongnan Mountain to find his master and report.
When Yun Zhongzi heard that Lei Zhenzi had not found King Wen, he quickly calculated and found that someone had rescued King Wen in advance.
Then he said to Lei Zhenzi: "It is true that an expert took action to rescue your father. Don't worry, my disciple. Your father and son will meet one day."
Lei Zhenzi had no choice but to stay in the mountains and continue practicing.
On the other side, after Yang Tuo pressed the light escape button, Ji Chang saw that he had passed the fifth level in just a moment. He hurriedly said: "The Taoist Master has vast magical powers and amazing magical power. Ji Chang thanked the Taoist Master for saving his life!"
Yang Tuo replied: "A wise king does not need to be polite."
Ji Chang thanked him again and again and invited Yang Tuo to Xiqi to express his gratitude.
Yang Tuo originally wanted to go to Xiqi to help Zhou conquer the merchants, so he happened to agree.
When Yang Tuo and King Wen arrived at Xiqi, they saw hundreds of civil and military officials, princes and the people of Xiqi greeting them at the city gate.
It was indeed the innate skill of King Wen's mother, Tai Jiang Yan, who calculated that King Wen had returned to Xiqi and ordered all the civil and military officials and princes to come out of the city to greet him.
When King Wen saw the crowd, he couldn't help but burst into tears. After they were separated for seven years, they had to meet each other in dreams. Now that we see each other again, I feel so many emotions in my heart!
Seeing King Wen, the second son Ji Fa came forward and asked King Wen to enter the city.
When King Wen saw this son, he couldn't help but think of Boyikao, the eldest son of Chaoge who died tragically. Unexpectedly, he felt great pain in his heart and burst into tears.
Suddenly he shouted: "Kill me!"
Then he vomited three times in a row and spit out three pieces of meat. The pieces of meat turned into three white rabbits and went west.
Yang Tuo understood that these were the three white rabbits that Boyikao had transformed into. Unexpectedly, Boyikao had already returned to the underworld and still wanted to go west. He had a strong desire to go home.
Seeing that after King Wen spit out the meat, his face was as white as paper. Yang Tuo took out a pill from the leopard skin pouch and fed it to King Wen. After a while, King Wen slowly recovered, but the sorrow in his heart was not at all there. reduce.
At this time, King Wen introduced to everyone: "This is Taoist Yang Tuo from Wuyi Mountain. When I was in danger, Taoist Master helped me escape from the five passes and return to Xiqi."
After King Wen finished speaking, Ji Fa brought all the civil and military officials and princes to thank Yang Tuo for his help!
On the second day, in the main hall, all the civil and military officials had completed their congratulations. King Wen said to Yang Tuo on the side: "The Taoist Master saved my life, and there is no way I can repay this great kindness. I would like to honor the Taoist Master as the Prime Minister of Xiqi to repay this great kindness!"
Yang Tuo hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "People from the mountains and wilds have no ability to govern the world. How can they shoulder such an important task? The welfare of the people of Xiqi cannot be entrusted to anyone without great virtue and sage."
"I, Yang Tuo, have no such ability. I hope the king will take back my life!" Yang Tuo quickly refused. This post of prime minister belongs to Jiang Ziya. How could he repay kindness and occupy such a high position.
King Wen tried to persuade him again and again, but Yang Tuo just refused. Seeing this, San Yisheng, a senior official, said: "Your Majesty, the Taoist is a high-ranking man. I think he doesn't want to get involved in worldly affairs. Why don't you ask the Taoist to help me?" Master Qi, isn’t it the best of both worlds?”
When King Wen saw that Yang Tuo was not willing to serve as prime minister, and San Yisheng spoke up, he said: "Master Taoist, are you willing to serve as my imperial advisor in Xiqi? Will you be connected with my fate in Xiqi and share the good and bad fortunes?"
Yang Tuo thought in his mind: "Serving as a national preceptor is connected to Xiqi's destiny. Although there is the evil of the country's destruction, it can indeed be cultivated through the destiny of the human race. Furthermore, the Western Zhou Dynasty has an eight hundred-year foundation, which can be restored in the future. Plan slowly."
So Yang Tuo replied: "Yang Tuo is deeply honored by the king's generous treatment. In this case, Pindao is willing to work with Xiqi to share the destiny and share the honor and disgrace!"
After hearing this, King Wen said happily: "Okay!"
Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials also hurriedly paid their respects and said, "I have seen the Imperial Master!"
Yang Tuo also quickly returned the gift!
The major affairs of the country lie in sacrifice and military affairs! The national preceptor is in charge of sacrifices and educating the people. His status is high and not lower than that of the prime minister.
After everyone paid their respects, Yang Tuo felt that there was a torrent of luck connected to him. A subtle tributary branched out from the torrent and headed towards him.
Yang Tuo suddenly felt that his luck had greatly increased and his foundation was solid. He was no longer like a rootless tree like he was after time travel.
After a while, Yang Tuo felt that his realm had taken a step further, and that he had taken a lot of steps forward.
After that, King Wen ordered the official San Yisheng to build a high platform in the south of the city, called the "Lingtai", to offer sacrifices to heaven and suppress disasters.
Anyone who participates in the construction will be given money and food.
After going down to court, King Wen hosted a banquet for Yang Tuo. The king said: "Xiqi now has a national advisor, which is a great blessing for all the people! I only hope that the imperial advisor will help me in Xiqi, so that the weather will be smooth and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe!"
Yang Tuo replied: "I will definitely do my best to repay the people of Xiqi!"
Yang Tuo added: "I heard that your Majesty is particularly good at Fuxi's innate Bagua technique, and he also has some expertise in minor ways. Maybe I can get some advice from Your Majesty?"
King Wen said: "Since the master of the country is so elegant, I, the king, can do anything."
King Wen said again: "I lived in Youli for seven years, performed the Fuxi Bagua into sixty-four hexagrams, and wrote the Book of Changes to spread it to the world. Now that the Imperial Master is interested, I will give you the original manuscript of the Book of Changes."
After saying that, he went to the inner hall to take out the "Book of Changes" and presented it to Yang Tuo.
Yang Tuo took the bamboo slip with both hands and examined it carefully. He found that the bamboo slip was not as magical as imagined.
According to Yang Tuo's thinking, King Wen wrote the "Book of Changes", and if he has contributed to the world, he should have merit from heaven and be favored by luck.
I don't think this "Book of Changes" is just like an ordinary letter, without any magical performance.
In fact, Yang Tuo didn't know, but it was his fault.
King Wen's writing of the Book of Changes was of course a great contribution to the people of the world. But the method of divination was like Cangjie's creation of Chinese characters, which was of great contribution to the human race.
But it is revealing the secrets of heaven, and it naturally brings evil to heaven. Not only does it have no merit, but it actually brings down karma.
However, King Wen was a saint of Xiqi, with the virtue of educating all peoples. He also occupied the throne and was protected by the luck of the race, so he was not harmed by karma.
Therefore, although King Wen wrote the Book of Changes, he had no merit.
