Two days later, outside the capital, there was Qingyun Mountain and Sanqing Temple.
The white walls and red tiles, the simple and old courtyard exude ancient heritage, and the huge Tai Chi diagram shows the atmosphere of Taoism.
At this moment, the main entrance of Sanqing Temple is wide open.
The Taoist priests in the Taoist temple stood in two rows with solemn expressions, as if they were waiting for someone.
In the dark, various people have already protected this place in advance.
The entire Qingyun Mountain is now filled with masters from Jinyiwei, Dongchang and Xichang.
Today, the entire Taoist temple is closed to thank visitors, and pilgrims are not allowed to come to offer incense.
At dawn, a luxurious carriage pulled by six tall horses stopped at the foot of Qingyun Mountain.
The golden dome, the carriage made of golden nanmu, and the pearls all exude luxury and lust!
Ancient system - the emperor drives six!
In the entire Ming Dynasty, there was only one person who could ride a six-horse carriage!
"Your Majesty, we have arrived!"
The driver of the carriage slowly opened a corner and whispered.
"Oh, I see."
A deep voice came from the carriage. The voice was very gentle, but it had an indescribable majesty.
"Here comes someone!" the carriage ordered quickly.
As soon as the words fell, a figure ran over quickly, crawled on the ground, and arched his back, as if he was waiting for something.
"Your Majesty, please slow down!"
The next moment, a dark-haired middle-aged man with a stern face, with the support of the groom, stepped on the visitor's back and stepped out of the carriage.
The middle-aged man has black hair, gray temples, a delicate face, and does not look old, but there is a trace of fatigue in his eyes. The whole person seems to be in a somewhat excited state, his eyes are reddish, and his face is rosy.
This person is none other than the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty—Emperor Tianqi Zhu Jianru.
"Let's go up the mountain!"
Emperor Tianqi, with the support of the groom, walked towards the Sanqing Temple on the top of the mountain.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, please slow down..."
…
After a while, Tianqi Emperor Zhu Jianru entered the Sanqing Temple, greeted by the disciples of the Taoist temple and the temple owner, Taoist Qingfeng.
Emperor Tianqi walked to the main hall with ease, looked at the tall Taoist statue, saluted respectfully, and muttered something as if he was praying.
Taoist Qingfeng, the master of the temple, stood silently and did not dare to disturb.
The other disciples stayed outside the door without saying a word.
After a full stick of incense, Emperor Tianqi finished his prayer and slowly opened his eyes.
At this time, Taoist Qingfeng handed over the sandalwood that had been prepared long ago.
Emperor Tianqi took the sandalwood, walked to the incense burner solemnly, and inserted three exquisite and elegant sandalwood sticks into the incense burner.
After doing all this, Emperor Tianqi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, as if he had accomplished a big thing, and he became much calmer.
Emperor Tianqi glanced at Taoist Qingfeng beside him and ordered: "I want to discuss Taoism with the master of the temple. You all should go out!"
"Yes!" The guards quickly retreated.
The disciples were also blasted away by Taoist Qingfeng.
Soon, only Emperor Tianqi and Taoist Qingfeng were left in the main hall.
"Master, do you think I can live forever?" Emperor Tianqi looked at the statue of Taoist Master and said softly.
Taoist Qingfeng nodded slightly and said: "Your Majesty will enjoy immortal blessings forever, and his life span will be as long as that of heaven. You will definitely live forever."
"But is there any emperor in the world who can live forever?" Emperor Tianqi asked.
"This..." Taoist Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about his words, he said, "Your Majesty has deep blessings, has been abstinent for many years, and has cultivated his moral character. Naturally, he is different from other emperors."
"hehe!"
"But why do I feel more and more tired?"
"Last year, my temples were not gray yet, but this year..."
Having said this, Emperor Tianqi touched his gray temples and seemed a little sentimental.
Hearing this, Taoist Qingfeng took out a beautiful box from his arms, opened it gently, and placed a dark golden pill inside.
"This is a life-creating elixir refined by Pindao. It can strengthen the foundation and strengthen the body, and prolong life. On the occasion of the birthday of this Taoist Master, I specially offer it to His Majesty."
Taoist Qingfeng handed over the brocade box and said flatteringly.
"You're interested." Emperor Tianqi nodded slightly, took the elixir, put it away, and said, "Then I'm going to take the refining elixir. Is the place ready?"
"It has been prepared for Your Majesty for a long time." Taoist Qingfeng nodded repeatedly, pointed forward with his finger, and said: "Please come with me, Your Majesty!"
"Yeah." Emperor Tianqi followed.
Taoist Qingfeng came to a corner, pulled up a piece of ceramic tile on the ground, activated the mechanism, and a secret passage suddenly appeared.
The two of them walked into the tunnel one after the other.
At this moment, a figure slowly emerged from the statue of Taoist Master, revealing half of his body and watching this scene.
"Father! Is there anyone in the world who can live forever?"
"Why are you so stubborn?"
Zhu Youji shook his head, sighed, and fell silent.
The plan begins...
A moment later, in a secret room, Emperor Tianqi sat cross-legged, slowly took the elixir, closed his eyes, and slowly meditated and practiced to refine this special life-creating elixir.
Seeing this scene, Taoist Qingfeng silently retreated and left the secret room.
What Emperor Tianqi practiced was not martial arts in the traditional sense, but a kind of health-preserving skill. It was a unique skill passed down by the Taoist sect, called "Xiantian Kung Fu".
Xiantian Kung Fu is a special Taoist method of breathing and breathing. This technique can change your physique through breathing and breathing, strengthen your body, prolong your life. If you practice it deeply, you can also draw parallels and practice other martial arts to an incredible level.
However, Emperor Tianqi was an emperor of the dynasty, with countless masters under his command, and he controlled the world. He did not need to practice martial arts, so he practiced innate skills just to maintain his health.
As this special elixir was gradually refined, Emperor Tianqi's face became increasingly red, and a rising stream of hot air surged out from his head. His whole body was like a sauna, and his breath gradually became hot, making him feel as if he were in heaven.
, as if the soul has been sublimated.
An obsessed smile appeared on the corner of Emperor Tianqi's mouth, as if he was enjoying this feeling of soul sublimation. At this moment, Emperor Tianqi felt that he had become an immortal and was experiencing the pleasure of an immortal!
However, the next moment, this rising warm current suddenly stopped.
The rising heat of Emperor Tianqi also gradually disappeared, and this intoxicating dreamlike feeling disappeared without a trace in an instant.
This feeling of falling from heaven to hell is simply crazy!
"No, no, no... I am the True Dragon Emperor, and I am the common master of the world. I should become an immortal and an ancestor. I don't want to die like a mortal. Damn it! Damn it!!"
Emperor Tianqi suddenly opened his eyes and knocked on the wall angrily. His eyes were full of pain and resentment, as if a person was sleeping soundly and was suddenly woken up.
The dream is broken!
At this moment, a dreamlike figure walked gracefully from one end of the secret room, carrying misty mist beside her...
