Chapter 440 The ten temples are rooted, and they are as old as the past! [Finally two in one]
This white jade pendant is the symbol of Taihua Mountain disciples. It is obtained when entering the school. It also contains the sentences of their respective Taoist names. It is not only a symbol of the identity of the disciple, but also has many functions. Most of them are for
For today's Chen Cuo, it is already useless and dispensable, but one thing is quite practical, that is, it can be used to communicate with the sect.
If something major happens in the door, unless it is under special circumstances, such as in an isolated place such as the Outer River Realm or the Shenzang Wilderness, everyone will be notified.
This time, Chen Cuo and his uncle got the news together.
He held the jade pendant and felt it slightly, knowing the contents, and couldn't help but be surprised.
There is no other reason. The news in this jade pendant was sent by Qiongfazi.
He was currently in the mountain gate, so he noticed something strange at the first time. Thinking of the sparse population on Taihua Mountain, he was alone except for the master. He felt that he was alone and alone, so he used the formation in the mountain to convey the message.
"Why did the Zhou Kingdom send troops and horses to besiege Taihua Mountain for no reason? And set fire to the mountain?"
Chen Cuo raised his head, looked at his uncle, and asked: "This secular dynasty will treat ordinary monks with respect. No matter how lonely we are in Taihua Mountain, it is said that we still have some foundation, at least with the cultivation level of the senior brothers and sisters in the sect.
, are far superior to others, why do the people of the Zhou Kingdom use swords against each other?"
The time he stayed in the sect was actually only three or four years, of which more than three years were spent in retreat. In total, the time he spent in the sect was not long. Faced with such a situation, it was really not good.
In anticipation, I was thinking that it could be between the sect and the Zhou Kingdom. Is there any kind of grievance or conflict?
Yan Yinzi also had doubts in his heart, but he came all the way before, saying that he wanted to support his nephew, but he didn't have time to show off his skills. Instead, he was blinded by the nephew's operations, but he didn't want to show it now.
Feeling timid, he held the jade pendant and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it's a small matter. I think some powerful person who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth got some information, or was bewitched by evil monks, and was used as a gunman..."
As he spoke, he stood up.
"Is it really that simple?" Chen Cuo frowned, "Even if ordinary powerful people can mobilize soldiers and horses, they still need some skills to target the mountain gate..."
"You don't have to worry about this matter. As for Qingqi Xuanxu, when I go back to inquire about it, I will send you a letter explaining it." Yan Yinzi waved his hand and walked towards the door, "Originally, I came here this time.
, I just want to help you. I finally realized that I came here in vain. Now your magical power is one of the best in our sect. However, the realm of Taoism and the method of magical power are different, so we still need to explore step by step.
I know that you have gained some insights recently, so it’s better not to be distracted by this, and leave the affairs of the master to me."
As he spoke, he had already walked out of the hall, turned around and smiled at Chen Cuo in the room: "If there is any trouble, we old guys will have to deal with it. In this way, you can practice well while you wait for me. If I wait for you
If it doesn’t work, then it’s up to you to come to the rescue!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword on his back was unsheathed, carrying the Taoist, and disappeared directly into light, leaving only a few words -
"Oh, I have been in this palace for a few days, being treated as an ancestor and being treated with filial piety. I am really happy. Now that I have to leave suddenly, I am really reluctant to leave. After this happens, I will still come here to enjoy the blessings...
…”
"Uncle Master."
Chen Cuo laughed when he heard this, watched the sword light disappear into the distant night sky, and looked away.
However, he did not completely let go of the attack on his master's sect just because of his uncle's remarks.
No matter how you say it, the attack of the mortal army on the Immortal Sect is weird. What's more, although his body is still immortal at this moment, even if the incarnation configuration is not counted, the appearance of Huai Di and Bronze Man has already reached the level of returning to the true state.
I don't deliberately speculate, but this involves changes in my own sect, which will inevitably cause waves in my heart, and I have a vague premonition.
However, just when he was thinking about whether he should put down his formation and make calculations, a spiritual thought suddenly came from him.
"Um?"
Chen Cuo's heart moved, and he immediately stopped his thoughts, put away the vague ruler in his hand, turned to Chen Luan, who was looking at the night sky curiously, and said: "If you have something to do today, go back first. You should have a good time to review what you learned during the day."
That’s it.”
"Yes!" Chen Luan immediately retracted his thoughts and nodded respectfully.
This scene naturally made the servants and maids around them marvel. They had never seen their eldest son be so honest and obedient. He was completely different from the past.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Chen Cuo ordering: "Go and let Chen Hai prepare. We have to go back to the Hou Mansion."
As soon as they heard the instructions from the gods, no one dared to delay. Two servants immediately ran all the way to the side room and informed Chen Hai who was recuperating.
The chief steward of the Hou Mansion was already old, his temples were gray, and his physical strength was not as good as before. Because he had to wait on Chen Cuo during the day and stood outside in the bright sun, he eventually fainted from heatstroke, but Chen Cuo dispelled the heat poison.
Later, he was placed here to rest.
According to the rules, he should have taken the position of steward of the Marquis Mansion long ago, retired with honor and happiness, and let his son or nephew take over.
But Chen Hai disagreed life and death, and still stuck to his post, guarding the empty Hou Mansion until today.
"My lord, please return home."
After receiving the order, Chen Hai immediately made arrangements to welcome Chen Cuo back to the Hou Mansion.
Chen Cuo nodded, glanced at Chen Hai, and said: "Although the fire poison has gone away today, it still hurts my body. I don't go back to my house often. I just arrange for others to do some things."
Chen Hai immediately shook his head and replied in a sincere tone: "Being able to run for the Lord is a blessing that takes several lifetimes to cultivate."
Chen Cuo took a deep look at him, still remembering that this person was originally the spy sent by Chen's mother, but now he had completely different thoughts. Finally, he nodded and said, "Do you still have the things you had with you?"
Chen Hai immediately said: "That is a family heirloom!"
Chen Cuo nodded, said nothing more, got on the bullock cart, and slowly left the palace.
"Quick! Go back quickly to report that the Marquis of Linru County has left the Prince of Nankang's Mansion!"
"Fuyaozi has left the Prince's Mansion. From the looks of it, it's time to return to the Prince's Mansion!"
"Shangxian Fuyaozi has left his mansion, please go and report back immediately!"
…
As soon as he left, he was immediately stared at by countless pairs of eyes.
Not to mention the informants of various secular forces, even the extraordinary forces paid attention to this moment and then passed the news back.
First of all, since it is the enshrining building near the water, they have the duty to protect the prince's palace and the marquis' mansion, and they must deliver the news in an honest and fair manner.
After getting the news, a woman in the worship building immediately summoned the leaders of several major factions in the building.
"The prince has been staying in the palace for the past few days. Just now, there was a sword light and he left the palace late at night. Is there any deep meaning in this?"
Her beautiful eyes moved around and scanned the people in front of her.
"Everyone, your Majesty is responsible for the safety of the country. If it hadn't been for him, Your Majesty would have fallen into the hands of evil spirits. If he hadn't been indifferent to fame and fortune, at least the name of a national advisor would have been indispensable. Therefore, any actions must be reported to the superiors.
, but if His Majesty asks about the inner reason later, I must have something to say."
Opposite, the monks headed by Yun Miaozi frowned and thought about the reason.
.
.
On the other side, many people from all walks of life also passed the news. Some of them disguised themselves as pedestrians, vendors, and beggars. Some simply squatted on the street corner and kept a close watch. When they saw the bullock cart pulling away, they immediately passed the news back.
.
The people standing behind these people are all small sects. There is at most a second-level monk in the sect. They originally thought of taking advantage of the chaos, but after seeing Chen Cuo's methods, everyone realized that it was impossible.
Even more so, their minds have changed, and now most of them are gathered together.
"Because of our status, we can't come to the door. Now is this opportunity, shouldn't we go there and express our intention to defect?"
"I'm afraid it will backfire if I'm so reckless."
"That's right, and the Immortal Chief left suddenly, there might be another change in the city. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. If we run into each other, our lives are not guaranteed, and it delays the Immortal Chief's affairs.
Big."
The heads of several small sects sat around a table, reading the news, each with their own thoughts.
.
.
In contrast, there was a short old man outside the palace. After seeing the bullock cart go away, he turned around and got into the ground. He shuttled along and arrived at the local City God's Temple in a blink of an eye.
However, at this moment, the powerful Jiankang City God did not sit on the main seat, but stood beside him.
Sitting on the main seat was a white-haired god.
This god's long hair was flying and his face was solemn, but after hearing the report, there was a solemn look in his eyes.
The city god hesitated for a moment and asked: "God, since the Marquis of Linru County has left the palace, should I pay him a visit?"
"That's right." The white-haired god nodded, "It's time to visit, but before going, you need to prepare a meeting gift."
As he spoke, a flash of memory flashed in his eyes, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes, which was obviously lingering fear.
He could still clearly remember that the Marquis of Linru County lost his life and returned to his true form within one day. Even the projection of the Nether Palace was torn apart, and the fate of the dragon vein of the entire Southern Dynasty was reversed by him!
Even the sense of oppression emanating from his body made the white-haired god tremble, and he was so oppressed that he couldn't even move!
He had no doubt at all that if he had coveted or even had some hostility in his heart at that time, he would have ended up like the Five Poison Old Man, or even the Monk Seng Yuan, Tan Xun, and Tan Yan!
It was not until the person withdrew his gaze and left that he and several others breathed a sigh of relief. They neither dared to stay nor step forward to negotiate at that time.
"In the final analysis, this man forced him to leave the world and returned to his true form through brutal killings. He is truly extremely cruel and has gathered real power. When we face him, we already feel a bit like facing a natural enemy."
Such methods must be treated seriously. Even if they cannot be won over, they cannot create a strong enemy for Tiangong!
.
.
"At a time when the world is undergoing great changes and China's destiny is ups and downs, using such earth-shaking means to reverse the world requires not only extraordinary magical powers but also the audacity to do so!"
In the same room in Fulin Tower, a woman in black was sitting cross-legged in the air, saying to Su Ding in front of her: "This Lord of the Chen family cannot be an enemy for the time being. Since you have some friendship with him, you can simply become a
Kind elder, follow and serve carefully, if he wants to act in the name of Nie Zhengrong, you will make it easy for him; if he acts in the name of Linru County, you will help him."
"This..." Su Ding was stunned when he heard this, thinking that he really wanted to be a grandson. However, thinking of the scene a few days ago, he knew how powerful it was, so he said cautiously: "Since it is the order of the Lord,
You should obey, but, is Chen...the Marquis of Linru County really so powerful? Could it be that the Holy Religion wanted to woo him to intervene in the Southern Dynasty..."
"You are thinking too much." The woman in black shook her head.
Just as Su Ding let out a slight breath, the woman followed up and said: "If we can really win him over, as far as the Holy Sect is concerned, we will not win half of the world! Compared with him, the Southern Dynasty is also slightly inferior."
She looked at the shocked Su Ding and sighed: "If he hadn't stopped that day, I would have been forced to return to the world. But now the road back is not peaceful, and the consequences are unpredictable.
.”
.
.
"What you did that day not only made our Chen family feel proud, but also shocked the young people in the city. Jiankang is extremely peaceful right now."
When Chen Cuo returned to the Hou Mansion in Linru County, as soon as he walked in, he saw a mighty man standing in the courtyard.
Chen Hai, who was following Chen Cuo, was stunned when he saw this man, with a look of surprise on his face.
But before he could take a closer look, Chen Cuo waved them away.
Chen Hai immediately led the others to disperse to both sides without asking anything else.
Chen Cuo said at this time: "If someone like Taizu shows his sage in front of others, once people recognize him and spread the word, there will probably be a turmoil."
This mighty man is naturally the founding king of Nanchen, Chen Baxian.
He was the one who just sent a message to Chen Cuo and asked him to return to the Hou Mansion.
Hearing Chen Cuo's words, he burst out laughing, full of joy, and then said: "If you lose your shackles suddenly, you will inevitably get a little carried away, and even I am not immune to this."
After his laughter subsided, Chen Cuo said: "Taizu's visit this time should not only be to visit the descendants in the future, right?"
Ever since that day when he destroyed the projection in the Hall of the Yins and pulled out the fate of the Southern Dynasties, Chen Cuo had completely understood the origins of the God of National Protection. He knew that this person might have something to do with the Yins.
Sure enough, I heard Chen Baxian say: "It's because of the underworld."
Speaking of the Yin Division, his face turned gloomy, and he said: "This Netherworld Yin Division plotted against the Southern Dynasty, imprisoned the dragon's blood, and manipulated the clan. The entire Southern Dynasty was almost a plaything of the Yin Division. It is really arrogant! You have broken their formation and created chaos.
Their situation will inevitably lead to trouble later."
"I have expected this!" Chen Cuo narrowed his eyes, "In fact, the underworld has a lot of plans for me. They have taken action several times. I didn't want to cause trouble, but in the end, they took advantage of it and persisted. Even if they don't come to me,
I’m going to find them too!”
Chen Ba was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay! You are worthy of me, the Qilin son of the Chen family. With your courage, you should sit in that position. Unfortunately, that common position is now a burdensome shackle for you."
As he spoke, he changed the topic, "Since you have this intention, I should help you. If others don't dare to say anything, I will tell you some of the underworld roots that I have discovered over the years."
He sneered: "Although I have been controlled by others for many years, I still have a plan, so naturally I will not sit still and wait for death."
"The foundation of the underworld?" Chen Cuo's eyes lit up and he said, "I would like to hear the details."
Chen Baxian did not hesitate, waved his sleeves to create a layer of restrictions around him, and said: "This Yinsi originated in ancient times and flourished in the Han Dynasty. The reason for this actually lies in the Ten Palaces of Hell!"
Chen Cuo became interested, calculated the time, and asked, "How do you say this?"
"Originally, the underworld of the underworld declined and was controlled by dynasties and sects in the human world. However, there are also people with great ambitions in the underworld. It is said that they imitated the methods of the five ancient emperors and covered the underworld with the dream of the ten kings of hell to shape the vast world. At this point, the underworld will
If the ancient dynasty becomes strong and prosperous, it can be said to be as prosperous as ever!"
When Chen Cuo heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the house, passed through the barrier and fell into the ears of the two of them——
"The five realms of the underworld, please knock on the door on behalf of my lord and ask to see the Marquis of Linru County!"
