649. The Magpies Have Nests, and the Doves Live In
Zhou Feng has been studying the Dragon Bobcat for several years. He was tracking the Danzicheng Feitian and kept staring at where he went. The place where Zhou Feng hid was Shi Tianyi and Wang Tianfang's cultivation temple back then. If we compare it with the Wanbian Sect, the sealed sect cave would be equivalent to the house in Suzhou City, and the cultivation temple would be equivalent to the small sword pool cave heaven in the suburbs.
Zhou Feng was waiting for Wang Tianfang, so Tingtao Villa did not capture him for the time being, mainly because he wanted to find out Wang Tianfang's whereabouts from him. But in such a remote place, it is impossible to send individuals to monitor him for many years. Everyone has their own practice, so there is no need to revolve around such a person.
However, Sanmeng Sect had other means, and transplanted and cultivated a "Immortals without leaving" with mysterious techniques, and secretly laid a sensing array. As long as Zhou Feng left the cultivation ground and made a strange movement, or outsiders visited, the Dan Fruit will have a sensing at the beginning, so that it can appear in Tielong Mountain in an instant. In other words, there is no need to monitor Zhou Feng at any time when the Dan Fruit is achieved, and you can naturally stare at it if something happens.
Just this morning, a badger crawled through the jungle. There were various wild animals in the deep mountains. This situation did not alarm the Danguocheng. However, when the badger touched the mysterious magic circle outside the cultivation temple, the Danguocheng noticed an abnormality. It is impossible for ordinary wild animals to use magic power. This must be a badger demon. Then the badger demon entered the temple to see Zhou Feng, and the Danguocheng also appeared in the Tielong Mountain.
Dan Guocheng had been waiting for several years, and he didn't need to pay special attention to doing his own things on weekdays, and he almost forgot about Zhou Feng. There was finally some movement today. Of course, she was very serious about monitoring it in secret, but when she appeared, she did not see the badger because the badger demon had entered the temple. Not long after, two people came out of the cultivation temple, Zhou Feng and another strange man with an excited look on his face.
Zhou Feng was very excited. He was so excited that he almost cried, and he felt like he was released from prison! Looking at him, he seemed to follow the strange man to meet someone, and walked a long way through mountains and rivers. Dan Guocheng also followed quietly behind him with his hidden tracks. They walked deeper and deeper in the mountains, and became more and more secretive. There was no road to the roots and they needed to cast spells to move away the thorns and plants.
He walked until the afternoon and had already left the practice temple very far. Dan Guocheng was pure and patient, but Zhou Feng in front was already impatient and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Guan, how far do we have to go?"
The strange man pointed ahead and said, "Isn't that all! Uncle Tianfang is waiting for you there, standing on the rocks halfway up the mountain. Have you seen it?"
Zhou Feng stood at a high place, narrowed his eyes and looked carefully, but he didn't see anyone on the rocks in the distance. He turned around and asked, "I didn't see, where is he?... Brother Guan, Brother Guan, where are you?" When he turned around, the strange man was gone. No matter how he shouted, there was only his own echo in the deep valley.
It turned out that just as he stood at a high place and looked into the distance, the strange man had already transformed into a badger. He hid his voice and walked away from the thorny trees, leaving the unlucky Zhou Feng there alone. Zhou Feng shouted and no one responded. He didn't know what happened, but suddenly he felt that the mountain wind was very cold and the deep valley was very sublime. He couldn't help but shivered a few times and had to leave.
Fortunately, he was not lost. He was walking around the mountains and was almost dark and rushed back to the practice temple dejectedly, but he couldn't figure out what happened? Wang Tianfang sent someone to meet him, but why did he disappear halfway through the person? If the person wanted to harm him, nothing happened!
Dan Guocheng discovered that the strange man was a demon cultivator, and his original body was a badger, but she did not track the whereabouts of the badger. On the one hand, the badger's original body was very flexible and hidden in the mountains and fields, which was difficult to track. On the other hand, her mind was very real, so she had to focus on Zhou Feng first. When Zhou Feng returned to the cultivation temple, Dan Guocheng suddenly realized something was wrong and hurried to another deep valley across a mountain to investigate. The gateway to the inheritance cave of Tielong Mountain is here.
She indeed noticed the traces of magic power fluctuations. Not long ago, someone cast a spell to unveil the seal of a certain magic array and opened the cave. But now the cave is still closed. I wonder if the visitor has left or is still inside. This cave was originally sealed by Mr. Yeyou. It can only be opened after the successor of Tielongshan’s cultivation level has been achieved. In addition to Shi Tianyi, Wang Tianfang may have done it.
The sect cave in Longshan is also a small Kunlun cave. Mr. Yeyou sealed it not entirely with his magic power, but the mysterious operation of the small Kunlun barrier made it hide the portal, as if it disappeared from the world. Now the portal appears, guarding the barrier to operate on its own, but except for the successor of the Dharma of Tilongshan, others do not know how to enter and exit. Unless they forcefully split the space with incredible force, they cannot enter.
Dan Guocheng didn't know what happened inside, so he immediately returned to Sanmeng Sect to report, and then rushed back to the surveillance outside the Longshan Taoist temple. Although the poor Zhou Feng was waiting for Wang Tianfang here, he did not know where the entourage of the Longshan Taoist temple was. If he knew, he might come to investigate and might realize what had happened.
When the Sanmeng Sect got the news, it immediately notified Tingtao Villa. It was obvious that Zhou Feng was used by Wang Tianfang to divert the attention of the surveillance. Then Wang Tianfang and his accomplices entered the cave without knowing it. One day was enough to take away a lot of things. Wang Tianfang could not have known in advance that Danguocheng was monitoring Zhou Feng. Moreover, several years have passed, and the possibility of someone focusing on Zhou Feng is very small, so doing this seems a bit unnecessary.
But it is expected that the "enemy" will be lenient. Regardless of whether there is anyone monitoring it, Zhou Feng is the best prop to divert attention in Tielongshan, so Wang Tianfang still did this, and everything went smoothly. He succeeded, but this incident was a major blow to Shi Tianyi, who vowed to inherit and revitalize the Tielongshan Sect!
When Sanmeng Sect learned that Shi Tianyi was in Suzhou, they called Dan Zicheng and asked him to tell the situation. Yuting, the head of Tingtao Villa, not only immediately notified Ai Songyang in Suzhou, but also decided to come in person. When the people who were having a banquet in the back garden of Wanbian Sect heard the news, they didn't know what to say for a moment, and looked at Shi Tianyi with complex eyes.
Shi Tianyi was also stunned for a while, but he was a great monk after all, and he did not lose his composure. When he came to his senses, he bowed and said, "If it weren't for today's incident, I wouldn't know that the Sanmeng Sect Danguo Cheng Taoist has been monitoring the movements in Zhou Feng and Tilong Mountain. My colleagues are so kind and concerned about me, and I am deeply grateful to me!
I have experienced what happened today in a false realm, but I didn’t expect it to happen. Although something unexpected happened, since I revitalized the inheritance of Tielongshan as the origin of my practice, I have the responsibility to protect the sect. Things have happened, and it is useless to sigh. I am not clear about the inside story, so I will rush to Tielongshan to see the details tomorrow. Perhaps it may not be Wang Tianfang’s actions, or it may be that my master has returned."
In addition to Wang Tianfang, there is indeed another person who can open the cave of Longshan Sect, which is Mr. Yeyou Yi Yuan himself. But this may be too small. If it were Mr. Yeyou, there is no need to send a demon cultivator to lure Zhou Feng away, making it so mysterious and sneaky.
Cheng Tianle said: "If Master Shi thinks this way, his mind is indeed open-minded and transparent, which makes me even more ashamed! If it weren't for the delay of the Wanbian Sect's journey, this matter might not have happened... In any case, my Wanbian Sect also has a responsibility. This time, I will not only accompany Master Shi to discuss Longshan, but also investigate this matter together."
Because Cheng Tianle had to wait for Cheng Tianle to deal with the matter of Xuanji and Ziqing's two factions to worship the mountain, Shi Tianyi stayed in Suzhou for three more days. With the current convenient transportation conditions, he flew to Guizhou first, then took a car to the nearest town, and then traveled through the mountains and fields by the magical method. It was more than enough to arrive at Telong Mountain in two days. He happened to be before Wang Tianfang. If he went to Telong Mountain directly from Wucheng, it would be even less late.
But it was so coincidental that such a regret happened in just one or two days.
Sun Xiuyun, the elder of Ziqing Sect, also bowed and said, "Sect Master Shi, because the matter between Ziqing and the Wanbian Sect has delayed your trip to Cheng Zong, but this accident happened. I am very sorry. Although Master Shi does not complain, no matter what, I have the responsibility to accompany you to Longshan to investigate this matter with Cheng Zong, and at the same time witness the promotion of the head of Longshan."
Zhang Ledao asked Zezhen, Lu Shi, and Cheng Tianle to write Longshan together, not only to open the sect cave, but also to hold a ceremony for Shi Tianyi to ascend the sect and witness the ceremony. Usually, the head of a sect ascends the throne at a traditional ceremony and invites fellow Taoists from all over the world to watch the ceremony. However, the situation of writing Longshan is quite special. Only Shi Tianyi, let alone He Ke, even the emcee cannot even find the ceremonial ceremonies to hold the ceremony. He cannot hold such a ceremony alone.
From Shi Tianyi's ascension to the throne as the head of Longshan to truly restoring the inheritance of this sect, it will take another process to wait until Shi Tianyi has a successor and establish a formal sect organization. If Shi Tianyi can do it in the future, then another sect ceremony can be held and a gathering of fellow Taoists from all over the world to watch the ceremony, which will be a grand event. As for now, Longshan does not have such conditions.
Zhang Ledao thought very thoughtfully. Several people helped Shi Tianyi to follow the tradition of Longshan, and held a simple but formal seat promotion ceremony. After looking back, they could notify Feishui Zhiwei Tower and convey the Kunlun sects, which confirmed Shi Tianyi's identity.
These are natural things, but now there are variables. Mr. Yeyou did not designate any disciple to succeed to the head of Tielongshan. In theory, who will succeed first will open the sect cave to ascend the throne. Another disciple is the emcee of the ceremony and invites relevant colleagues to witness it.
