Chapter 385 Grandpa Will Always Be Grandpa! Encounter in the Mountains (2 in 1)
The night invades, above the city walls.
Uncle Qin's figure was reflected by the faintly beating torches. He walked slowly and heavily, which was very different from when he was in Ping'an Town.
"You're still back after all." Li Zangfeng raised his eyes and looked deeply, there seemed to be deep meaning in his words.
"Thirty-three years later, I'm still back." Uncle Qin grinned coldly.
"If I were here back then, how could the world be turned upside down? Those little brats..."
Uncle Qin squinted his eyes, and a cold light suddenly appeared, like a butcher getting up at night, sharpening his knife.
"I know you've been by that man's side from the very beginning, but what he's going to do is earth-shattering. Not only will the Imperial Palace not agree, but many people won't agree." Li Zangfeng sighed deeply.
"So? Do we want to have another 【Tao King Sacrifice】!?"
Uncle Qin shook his head, a gloomy expression appeared on his face.
The Dao King's Great Sacrifice was a catastrophe unprecedented in ancient times. How many ancient bloodlines of the monster race were buried here, and how many great powers of the human race fell to their deaths...It is stronger than [Changsheng], [Taiyi], these behemoths are also wiped out, and they will never be seen again. Lost the glory of the past.
There has never been a loss of life in ancient times.
"In the end, this world is not just for those people. If there is another [Tao King Sacrifice], one day it will be liquidated, and no one can stay out of it."
Uncle Qin's voice became colder and colder, like swords and soldiers crossing each other, making people chill.
Li Zangfeng remained silent, he knew very well that what Uncle Qin said was the truth.
Zhou Xuan failed and paid a painful price for it.
Now, Zhou Dao is here.
"Who? Dare to come here to fight the autumn wind?"
At this moment, a majestic roar resounded above the city wall, and thunder and lightning descended here, turning into a figure.
The person who came was wearing heavy armor, a long sword on his waist, and a golden crown on his head. He was invincible, and he was so angry that he sealed off the entire city wall with terrifying power.
The secret place of the capital, this wall is a scourge, no matter whether you are a monster or a monk, you should not set foot on it easily.
"Bei Shenhou."
Li Zangfeng glanced at it with an indifferent expression.
At the foot of the Son of Heaven, the [Bei Ya Department] is in charge of the public security and defense of the capital, which controls 100,000 soldiers and horses in key areas of the capital.
Throughout the ages, this extremely important position has been passed down from generation to generation by [Bei Shenhou].
It is said that this lineage has followed Taizu since the founding of the country. Although it is only a feudal lord, it has been favored by the emperor for generations and is extremely honored.
The position of Beiya Secretary alone is extremely important, making him one of the most powerful figures in the capital.
Therefore, [Bei Shenhou] is one of the best among the many princes, and he is also a strong [True Realm].
"Where is Xiao Xiao..."
Beishenhou walked over, and just started to yell at him, but when he saw Li Zangfeng's face, he swallowed his words back halfway.
"It turned out to be a sword pillar!"
Beishenhou's heart froze, and his attitude eased immediately.
As one of the most powerful figures in the capital, Bei Shenhou had of course met Li Zangfeng.
Among the [Nine Divine Pillars], Jianzhu is famous for his decisiveness in killing.
His sword is so famous that even he, as [Northern God Marquis], is extremely afraid. Standing ten feet away, he can feel the faint pressure.
The blood in Bei Shenhou's body could not be controlled and began to rise and fall violently.
Even though he was a strong person in [True Realm], he still felt an inexplicable powerlessness in the face of Li Zangfeng.
But after all, dignified [Bei Shenhou] had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk up.
At this moment, Beishenhou felt a little regretful. If the incense altar in the Imperial Palace hadn't been pushed horizontally, he wouldn't have come out to patrol in the middle of the night.
"Your Excellency Jianzhu is busy with work, why are you here so late?" Bei Shenhou said with a smile on his face, pretending to be relaxed.
What a fucking idle time, why is Yu Yaosi all on his horses? Is the Nine Gods Pillar awesome? Can you just stand on top of the wall at night and pretend to be aggressive?
Beishenhou slandered in his heart,
There was a smile on his face, and he couldn't help but glance at the slightly aged figure beside him.
The majestic Sword Pillar would definitely not appear here for no reason, and the people who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him must be extraordinary.
Bei Shenhou couldn't help being curious, and cast his gaze.
However, with just one glance, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, his eyes widened, as if he had been shocked by an electric shock, he couldn't believe it.
At this moment, Uncle Qin cast his cold eyes over.
poof...
Bei Shenhou suddenly fell to his knees, his body lowered, his body trembling, full of shock and fear.
He didn't expect that after so many years, this person was still alive and returned to the capital.
"Old..." Beishenhou was about to speak.
A big old hand fell on his head.
"So it's the son of the old Xu family."
A slightly smiling voice rang out on the city wall, and Bei Shenhou's body was lowered even lower.
"Is Xu Fenghuan dead?"
"I... my grandfather passed away seven years ago." Beishenhou said tremblingly.
Xu Fenghuan was his grandfather's name taboo, he was also an important minister of the dynasty, and a veteran of the three dynasties.
In the capital city of Nuo Da, there are only a handful of people who dare to bluntly say their names, even princes and nobles have to honorably call him Master Xu.
"Well, that old thing deserves to die after living for so long!" Uncle Qin whispered.
Bei Shenhou lay on the ground, not daring to breathe.
He regretted it more and more now. In the middle of the night, did he have a brain twitch? What are the outsiders doing?
Edict Ling Palace also has a brain problem. It has been passed down for many years. In the land of the capital, the incense altar under the seat can be pushed horizontally by someone single-handedly. Why not die?
Facing Uncle Qin's exclamation, Bei Shenhou could only nod mechanically.
"Dreaming is not a good habit."
Uncle Qin's old palm was slowly withdrawn from the top of Bei Shenhou's head. The latter's body trembled and he vomited in a hurry.
"I... I understand, I slept so dead, it's all fake."
As he spoke, Bei Shenhou hurriedly stood up, saluted, turned into a flash of thunder, and disappeared into the vast night without looking back.
"It's like a dream, it's like a dream, trying to cultivate the truth...you're really a smart man." Uncle Qin spoke indifferently, as he spoke, he turned and left.
His figure was disillusioned, as if he had never appeared before.
Above the city walls of Nuo Da, the emptiness is like a mystery, which is beyond words.
"All dharmas have passed from now on, without adding anything to the body!"
Li Zangfeng slowly withdrew his gaze, looked at the endless sky, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Brother, you are really amazing! Even invited him back!"
The heavy voice reverberated in the city wall, like babbling in a dream, and it lasted for a long time.
...
The night faded quietly, and the east revealed a fish-belly white.
Zhou Dao took Ha Shiqi and Hong Ming to gallop all the way, and after a while, he left the capital and came to a barren mountain eight hundred miles away.
"Brother Zhou, I didn't expect you to be a cultivator." Hearing the whispers in his ears, Hong Ming couldn't help saying.
"Master, your fight today is really enjoyable." Ha Shiqi grinned and said.
"Shut up, do you think it's a good thing?" Zhou Dao glanced at it.
Of course he knew the weight of the imperial edict palace, so high above that even the royal authority could not be added to it, God knows how troublesome it would be if it leveled an incense altar.
Zhou Dao is very clear that his current situation is not good.
He didn't go to Yuyaosi immediately, because he was afraid that Li Zangfeng would not be found, and because he didn't want to cause trouble for the master.
"What is this place?"
Zhou Dao looked at the towering mountains around, like criss-crossed, fierce, with jagged peaks... It was quite a strange pattern.
If you look carefully, the topography of the capital is like a real dragon moving vertically and horizontally.
Then the mountain here is a dead dragon with bones, facing each other from a distance, looking at each other life and death, which is quite strange.
"It's not on the map either." Zhou Dao showed doubts.
"This is the Two Worlds Mountain!"
"Two Realms Mountain!?" Zhou Dao's heart skipped a beat. He had seen this name in the "Monster Yusi Work Manual".
The past and the past, the two worlds of life and death, represent the past and the present.
Rumor has it that this place was originally the site of the former dynasty and the capital of the king.
At that time, Taizu waved his whip, and the soldiers crushed it, and the whole world was turned into scorched earth. Later, in the battle of Dingguo, Taizu used great supernatural powers to move mountains and fill seas, leveling the capital of the previous dynasty.
Since then, there has been this Liangjie Mountain.
"Of course it is impossible to mark the old site of the previous dynasty on the map." Hong Ming recognized this place after reading a lot of books.
"It is said that in the battle of Taizu Dingguo, all the royal families of the previous dynasty were killed, and they were used to build the foundation for the new king's capital, involving as many as 100,000 people."
Hong Ming lamented that in the history of Daqin, Taizu's act of founding the country was quite controversial. He never treated the royal family of the previous dynasty kindly.
The historians of the past dynasties have been very secretive about this and dare not say more, but many great Confucian scholars have criticized this, saying that the Taizu was tyrannical, started a new dynasty by killing and cutting down, harshly punished the ancestral temple of the previous dynasty, was not benevolent in taking the world, and was not good at managing the country. To set this precedent, there must be poison, fearing that future generations will not escape the way of heaven.
"One hundred thousand people!?" Zhou Dao couldn't help but gasped.
Of course, these will not be recorded in the official history, Zhou Dao has never seen them.
However, Hong Ming has read a lot of books himself, and he has seen many manuscripts and notes of great Confucian historians, which contain detailed records.
Hundreds of thousands of people, blood flowed into rivers, crying and crying for three days, the foundation has been cast, the giant tree has set the foundation, and the great cause of the new capital has been achieved.
Zhou Dao did not expect that in the prosperous place of the capital, there are hundreds of thousands of corpses of the former royal family buried here.
Taizu was also really courageous, not afraid of verbal criticism from later generations, he swung his arms and killed people's heads.
One dragon dies, another dragon lives, life and death depend on each other, and things look at each other. It's really a strange pattern.
The more Zhou Dao looked at it, the more mysterious he felt. The appearance of these two boundary mountains should not only be for the purpose of destroying the former royal capital.
Taizu killed 100,000 royal families, not just for the purpose of setting up the new city.
Looking at the connection, the topography of these two places is inextricably linked, which is quite mysterious.
"Poor Wangcheng is scorched..."
Hong Ming's scholarly sourness surged up again, and since he fell on these two boundary mountains, he couldn't help thinking of the ancients.
"I heard that the royal family of the previous dynasty didn't seem to be completely extinct." Before Zhou Dao rang, he had seen some unofficial history from Uncle Qin.
"It seems true." Hong Ming nodded.
"It is said that when the Taizu was young, he was still in the grass and married a young man who was actually a prince from the previous dynasty. The relationship between the two...is embarrassing."
Many of what Hong Ming said were speculations and fabrications by later generations, and the authenticity is unknown.
"Later the Taizu established the country and destroyed the previous dynasty, leaving only the prince a way out."
"The country is ruined and the family is destroyed. The prince has no interest in life. He never thought that he would meet a wandering Taoist at this time."
"The prince was enlightened, and he was enlightened. He was defeated by the Taoist Yunyou, but the latter said that he was not lucky enough, and he was not qualified to worship the entrance wall. He only taught some Taoism and left."
"Later, that prince actually returned to the capital and established a sect on the Yanshan Mountain."
"Xuantian Temple!?" Zhou Dao was stunned, showing a look of surprise.
He didn't expect that the patriarch of Xuantian Temple would be a prince from the previous dynasty?
"The inscription you read on the back mountain of [Deyiyuan] was left by an expert who taught the prince Taoism."
Hearing this, Zhou Dao was stunned. It seems that the Yunyou Taoist that the prince met back then should be the senior of the Sunset Sect.
"The prince created Xuantian Temple, and the Taizu actually acquiesced, and the market royal came in person, and burned incense to worship..." Hong Ming said slowly.
No wonder the status of Xuantian Temple is so special, it is regarded as the Royal Taoist Temple by the Daqin royal family.
It turns out that there is such a complicated relationship in it, which is a tradition left over from the Taizu period.
"In addition to being the capital of the previous dynasty, these two boundary mountains also have a particularly important place."
"What?" Zhou Dao blurted out.
"It is said that this dynasty will hold a national sacrifice every thirty-three years, and the place is at these two boundary mountains."
"Thirty-three years? National festival!?" Zhou Dao's heart skipped a beat, as if he had thought of something.
"Yuan Wang Fa Conference!?"
Ordinary people like Hong Ming naturally wouldn't know the existence of Yuan Wang Fahui, but every thirty-three years, the national grand ceremony attracts the attention of the world, but it is spread wildly among the people.
"It turns out that the King Yuan Fa Conference was held here!?"
Immediately, Zhou Dao felt a sense of blessing to his soul.
"Go, go in and have a look."
Originally, Zhou Dao wanted to find a hidden place to comprehend the [Wordless Sky Tablet] and [Giant Spirit Thunder Pond] he had just obtained, and practice the Sunset Sect Taoism in one fell swoop.
But now he has changed his mind, he wants to explore this Liangjie Mountain and see the place where his father was crowned king.
The Liangjie Mountains are majestic and towering, with their peaks entering the sky and changing strangely.
Even during the day, few people set foot here.
The rumors about Liangjie Mountain were disturbing and never stopped.
Some people said that the royal family of the former dynasty had too much resentment, and their ghosts would not die after death, so they wandered in the mountains, taking the passing merchants as tributes, wantonly eating, and over time they turned into monsters.
"Master, I seem to smell a monster." Ha Shiqi approached and whispered.
"There are monsters in this mountain." Zhou Dao also felt his heart skip a beat.
It is not uncommon for monsters to be hidden in other places. These two mountains are not ordinary places, and there are monsters hiding here?
With this in mind, Zhou Dao asked Ha Shiqi to lead the way and searched for it.
It didn't take long, the monster aura became stronger and stronger, like a blaze of fire, which even made Ha Shiqi feel fear.
"Hahaha, Huo Tiandu's Taoism, the skills of being a national teacher, you haven't even learned the superficiality, how dare you come here to die?"
At this moment, a ferocious laughter shook the mountains and fields.
Zhou Dao raised his eyes and saw that in front of a cave, the flames exploded, the rubble flew, and a black shadow flew out. His body was stained with blood, and he landed deftly on the ground. forward.
Under the blue sky and Cangshan Mountain.
That black cat looked very special.
