Chapter 153 Chongzhen is happy with Fengxue’s conspiracy
Chang Xiao opened the pages of "Fu Zhuan Xiaolu" and took a brief look at it. The first page said that Fu Zhuan came from "Sandong Sutra" and modestly said that this "Fu Zhuan Xiaolu" only records thirty
Compared with the hundreds of millions of talisman and seal scripts recorded in the "Sandong Jingshu", the eight common kinds of talisman and seal scripts are really not even a drop in the bucket, so they are called Xiaolu. I hope that knowledgeable people can tell what they know.
The talismans and seals are also registered in this "Small Records of Talisman and Seal Scripts" so that the talisman and seal scripts will not disappear over time.
Chang Xiao understood clearly that this was after the war between gods and demons, the Seven Treasures Xuantai was closed, most of the "Three Cave Scriptures" were destroyed, and countless inheritances disappeared. Some immortals were worried that the Taoism would die with the passage of time and the death of the cultivators.
disappeared, so I made such a short record, hoping to preserve these talismans and seals through pen and ink and pass them on.
It's a lot of hard work! It can also be seen from this that the state of Immortal Dao at this time has indeed reached an unsustainable point.
Chang Xiao opened the back and found the drawing methods of each talisman, as well as detailed explanations! At this time, Chang Xiao realized that it turned out that the talisman was just a symbol that condensed the true energy, and the paper for the talisman was made using materials.
The difference determines how powerful the talisman seal is.
This "Small Record of Talisman and Seal Scripts" contains more than thirty-eight Talisman Seal Scripts. Chang Xiao flipped through this volume and found that there were more than 60 Talisman Seal Scripts included in it.
Chang Xiao looked at this brand new book and understood that this "Small Record of Talisman and Seal Script" was not the original, but a copy. Originally, there should have been more than twenty talisman and seal scripts that were later included.
Chang Xiao has always longed for these things in the immortal world. Although Chang Xiao didn't know what use it would be to him after getting this small book of talismans and seals, he was still happy and accepted it with a smile.
Seeing Chang Xiao accept the book, Mr. Wu stood up and left. Chang Xiao did not pretend to stay, but made those artificial polite words and saw the guest off directly.
In the palace, two young eunuchs walked under the high wall. The bluestone road under their feet seemed to be endless, and they could only see a long strip of sky above their heads.
There are no guards here, so the two young eunuchs don't have too many scruples. One of them stretched his waist and said: "I've finally been able to live a comfortable life these past two days. The days of worry and anxiety some time ago are really not for people."
Another young eunuch also smiled and said: "Isn't that right? The emperor is in a good mood recently. Even if we minions did something wrong, the emperor doesn't care much. Defu, that boy, when he served the emperor the day before yesterday, he actually
The plate was beaten and the vegetable soup was spread all over the carpet. If it had been in the past, he would have been beaten to death. However, this kid was lucky. The emperor didn't blame him. He didn't even get a slap on his butt. Tsk, tsk, this kind of thing happened in the past.
I really can’t even think about it. How wonderful it would be if the Emperor and his old man could do this every day! By the way, I heard that although the Emperor works harder than before, he is in good spirits and eats a big bowl more at each meal than before.
, we slaves just hope that the emperor will be happy every day."
The little eunuch who spoke before smiled and said: "Don't worry, the emperor's mood will definitely get better and better in the future. Haven't you heard that those foreign monks have such profound teachings that they even solved the severe drought in Shaanxi for years?
, it is really the magical power of the Buddha who came to the world. We also went to worship the foreign Buddha in the evening. I heard that many brothers in our palace worship the foreign Buddha. It is said that those foreign monks also chanted sutras and consecrated the Buddha, and drew talismans on their heads with water."
"Yes, yes, my mother has said before that it is always right to worship the Buddha when you see it. I had a bad fate when I was a child. Let's see if I can change my life by worshiping a foreign Buddha."
"Let's go, after this errand is done, let's go and say goodbye..."
"what to do?"
In a barren mountain ravine covered by heavy snow in Shaanxi Province, such a question came out countless times.
A heavy snowfall has just fallen in Shaanxi. In the past few days, the temperature has dropped sharply, and the sky has been in haze. The sun has not been seen for several days. If the sun does not come out, the snow will not melt! Even the sky is dark.
It's getting darker and darker, and the clouds are getting heavier and heavier. It looks like another heavy snow is brewing.
The wind picked up again, blowing up heavy snow and howling like a knife.
In such horrible weather, not to mention walking in the wild, even hiding in a house with a charcoal fire and wrapped in a quilt is quite difficult.
If you are in the wild, you may freeze to death at any time.
At this time, several people, no, tens of thousands of people, were forced into such a desperate situation.
These tens of thousands of people include Wang Ziyong, Li Zicheng, Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong and so on.
Wang Jiayin died suddenly and violently, causing Wang Jiayin's men to become a mess. Cao Yanwang and Cao Wenzhao took the opportunity to attack, causing more than 30,000 of them to be cut up. In the end, only nearly 10,000 of them escaped.
At this time, they were like rats forced into a desperate situation, trembling in the wind and snow like drowned rats.
A bonfire was lit in the middle of these people. Unfortunately, the bonfire was flickering under the wind and snow, especially the snow foam swirling into the fire, which seemed to suppress the small and weak flame at any time.
Just put it off!
The subtle warmth of the fire was not enough to melt the ice on their faces.
"Brother Wang, what should we do? We are running away in a hurry. We have no food and no place to stay. We don't even have many thick clothes. If we continue, our people will die in this ravine!" Gao Yingxiang
Open your mouth and say.
Wang Ziyong is a thin man and not too tall, but he has a nickname called Zijin Liang. He is the most prestigious person under Wang Jiayin. After Wang Jiayin died, he is the one who can speak now.
Wang Ziyong did not speak, and after silence he looked at Zhang Xianzhong.
Zhang Xianzhong is tall but very thin, with a yellow complexion, a one-foot-six-inch long beard, and piercing eyes. At first glance, he looks like a ruthless and scheming person.
Zhang Xianzhong shook his head and said: "There is nothing we can do. We just got rid of the pursuit of King Cao of Hell and hid in the mountains. However, the heavy snow did not melt away. On the contrary, it looks like there may be another heavy snowfall at any time. Our men will suffer from frostbite."
There are everywhere. If we continue like this, I'm afraid they will all freeze to death here, and the most important thing is not here. Think about it, why can we gather such a team? Why can we inspire thousands of people?
Bird shadow from? Isn't it because of the severe drought in Shaanxi that everyone can't have enough to eat? Now that the heavy snow has fallen, it seems that next year will no longer be a year of severe drought. By then, as long as the people have one mouthful of food to eat, even if
If we can see the hope of filling our stomachs, who will follow us and shed blood? It is unlucky to say that all our men will be dispersed by then. We are now in a catastrophic situation, and we will be in dire straits in the future.
Run away!"
After Zhang Xianzhong said a few words, everyone in the venue fell silent. Anyone who could reach their position is not a fool. Zhang Xianzhong was right, they are at the end of their rope now.
Zhang Xianzhong looked around at everyone, and then whispered: "There are only two ways now."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Zhang Xianzhong, as if they had been lost at sea for a long time and suddenly saw a lighthouse.
Zhang Xianzhong said: "One way is for us to go back and find King Cao of Hell. Let us surrender. Let's eat and survive first."
Everyone who was originally interested in Zhang Xianzhong shook their heads in disappointment when they heard this.
Gao Yingxiang even frowned and said: "Bastard, if our opponent had been someone else and we had surrendered earlier, why would we have gone into this ravine? But that was Cao Hell, Cao Wenzhao. This bastard was brought up by the executioner, but he never surrendered.
When we surrender, we are just using our necks to sharpen his knives. You can't even come up with such a bad idea."
Everyone else nodded in unison.
For these characters, there is nothing shameful in surrendering. Each of them has surrendered before, and then rebelled after surrendering. They are very skilled at this kind of thing.
Zhang Xianzhong seemed to have expected this to happen. His eyes flashed and he said: "Let's take the second road, go east!"
Everyone was stunned. Gao Yingxiang frowned and said, "Going east? What are you doing going east?"
Zhang Xianzhong smiled coldly and said: "Shaanxi can't do anything famous here. Besides, if there is no drought next year, we will have no room to expand. Since we have already started to play, let's play a big one.
Went to Fengyang and confiscated the ancestral tombs of Lao Zhu’s family!”
"What?"
Everyone in the venue was stunned. Zhang Xianzhong's words were too bold. Even though they were all tough-minded characters, they still felt chills running down their backs after hearing these words. It was so cold in such a cold weather.
, they actually felt sweat coming out of their noses.
After a long while, Gao Yingxiang took a deep breath, and then shouted with anger on his face: "Are you crazy from hunger?"
Zhang Xianzhong sneered and said: "I have an immortal master here. I asked him to explain to you why we dig up the ancestral graves of the old Zhu family!"
As he spoke, Zhang Xianzhong glanced behind him, and a dark-skinned bald monk walked out of the team behind him. No, it was not a monk, but an extremely thin lama. This lama only had half a face, and the rest
Half of the face was blurry and terrifying. If Chen Zhuo were here, he would definitely know that half of this lama's face was shot to pieces by him!
Yes, this lama is called Yixi. He once escaped from Deyang City with the living Buddha on his back. He wanted to take the living Buddha back to the Tantric Sect alone. The same Yixi who wanted to take credit, unfortunately he was unlucky and was killed by Chen Zhuo on the way.
His face was shattered with one shot, and the living Buddha's Yeshi was also taken away.
After Yixi was found by Deji, he was already dying. Deji was angry that Yixi took away the living Buddha without saying hello to him. The credit was a trivial matter, but it was a big deal that the living Buddha fell into the hands of evil spirits. Therefore, Deji was angry.
Ji directly threw the dying Yixi into a dry well and left him to fend for himself, so that he would suffer!
Originally, Yixi was destined to die in the dry well, but he survived. There was no reason, he just survived. His vitality was so strong that even he was surprised!
After Yixi walked out of the dry well, he did not dare to go back to Tantric Buddhism directly because he had made a big mistake, so he wandered on the deserted road. He happened to encounter a group of bandits, and he was also coerced into the group of bandits. Later, by chance, he
When he arrived in Zhang Xianzhong's team, Zhang Xianzhong valued him very much at first sight, so Yixi also stayed in Zhang Xianzhong's team to give him some advice.
It was he who came up with the idea to dig up the ancestral graves of the old Zhu family!
People in the Central Plains had never had a good impression of lamas because of the dominance of lamas in the Yuan Dynasty. Therefore, Li Zicheng frowned slightly when he saw Zhang Xianzhong calling a lama over, Gao Yingxiang, and Wang Ziyong, who had been silent.
Yixi came to the fire, and his face was particularly ferocious as reflected by the bonfire. Even if he didn't open his mouth, there were still a few black and yellow teeth exposed from his cheeks. This face, if there weren't so many people at this time, would be...
It might scare a few to death.
"If you want to succeed, the Zhu family's ancestral grave must be dug!" Yixi said directly.
Gao Yingxiang and others are not three-year-old children, so naturally they will not be convinced by such a sentence.
They all looked at Yixi, their eyes were no different from looking at a lunatic!
