The thunder gradually dissipated in the night sky. The two children, covering their ears and huddled in their mother's arms, looked timidly at the open door. Their father also had a look of horror on his face and stayed in place, not daring to move.
Is Zhenjun able to attract thunder?
But Chen Yuan over there was not as much as he thought. The talisman in his palm gradually disappeared from the golden magic light, and then with a slight flick, the entire edict disappeared.
The court is already in chaos.
But I don’t have time to waste time with them...
Yanren is in the west, we must go and see it as soon as possible...
Chen Yuan knew in his heart that this road was difficult to walk. After all, Yi Ren had a deep foundation in this world. If he had known that he was going west, he would not know how many thorns would be waiting for him on the road.
"Huaiyu, your family should rest first."
He said softly, drove Xu Huaiyu back to the house, and walked to the front of the Zhenjun Temple with his hands behind his hands. The fat Taoist pushed aside the nagging crazy old man and followed him, "Master, what are you thinking about? What are you doing?"
A prince?"
Chen Yuan shook his head and told the fat Taoist everything Zhong Kui knew, and then said: "If we go west, I'm afraid it will be known."
The latter touched his chin and breathed in hissingly.
"My boss, it's not easy to keep that Yi Ren from knowing. As long as she knows, it will be fine if we are still in the Central Plains?"
Um?
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, he turned around and pulled hard on the fat face.
"good idea."
As for how to make Yanren think that she has not left here, it is simple. It happened that she had promised to build another Zhenjun temple so that Xu Huaiyu's family could have a safe place.
He looked back at the dormitory where the lights were still on, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a gentle smile from the sun.
How could the people who have followed him for so long put them in danger?
"Then it's decided."
Thinking about it, he turned around, flicked his sleeves, and dashed into the night sky. In the carriage, the Yue Hao Sword swished up, propped up at Chen Yuan's feet, and they flew together to the foothills north of Luodu.
The stars and moon illuminated the gaps in the forest, revealing an eerie light, and occasionally unknown wild birds neighed.
The sword light fell into the open space, Chen Yuan gently dropped leaves and moss, raised a hand, and slowly closed his eyes. In the next moment, his soul came to the inner world and stood in front of the True Lord's Temple between the mountains and rivers.
"I am Chen Yuan, the master of the True Monarch Temple. I will use the Temple Temple to appear in the mortal world."
While speaking, he stretched out his hand to put down the stone tablet in front of the temple. While pressing it, in the outside world, Chen Yuan in the forest also made the same movement. Under his empty palm, the soil surged, and a whole piece of rock broke through the ground.
When he came out, the gravel flew down under the magic power and turned into the outline of the stone tablet in the blink of an eye.
On the stele, dragons and phoenixes dance, one stroke after another, written: The Spiritual Appearance of the True King.
Inner heaven and earth.
Chen Yuan walked to the gate of the front courtyard, and the buildings reflected in his eyes seemed to be transmitted to the outside through the observation of his field of vision.
next moment.
In the forest clearing outside, thick fallen leaves were flying all over the sky, broken tree stumps, and half-buried large bluestones were shaking and loosening one by one. Under the influence of mana, they broke through the ground and floated. The snakes and insects living below fled in panic.
Come.
The uneven ground also sank in an instant and became smooth. The soil, stones, and rocks were surging and carved. As Chen Yuan waved his sleeves and gestured, the foundation was dented, filled with fine stones, and the accumulated soil was exhausted.
The walls are constantly being compacted.
Under the cold moonlight, the outline of the building climbed up little by little. The courtyard walls, temple walls, and surrounding trees fell off, branches were broken off, the round wooden body turned into beams, the eaves extended, and then the tiles carved from the rock spread out.
In just two moments, a brand new temple rose from the ground in the wilderness forest.
"How can there be form but no spirit!"
Chen Yuan walked into the temple. Wherever he walked, the ground was compacted and hardened, and the altars on both sides rose one after another, like lotus flowers in bloom.
In front of the first altar that he arrived at, Chen Yuan raised his hand and grabbed it. A large rock that he had prepared flew in with a bang. The rock debris fell off on the way. When he landed on the altar, it was already a sitting statue of the god, standing with Chen Yuan.
Exactly the same.
"last step."
When Chen Yuan bit her index finger and secreted bright red blood beads, she flicked it towards the statue, and a red dot immediately fell on the forehead of the statue, and then quickly disappeared into it.
"Goulian!"
As the sound fell, the mana drum began to vibrate, and ripples visible to the naked eye spread in all directions with the temple as the center.
Looking down from the night sky.
The invisible normal line shot out from the foothills of the wilderness and flew to the Zhenjun Temple on the Xinyang River in Luodu. It connected instantly. The normal line flew again, crossing hundreds of miles and tracing a long trajectory. Linjiang County Zhenjun
In the temple, the statue of the god lights up and catches the flying normal line.
Chen Yuan walked behind the statue.
He smeared the blood on his index finger and drew a moving magic circle. This formation was not difficult. Among the talisman papers Mingguang gave him back then, there was this magic formation used for escaping.
At present, it is just a replica of the gourd and painting. In this way, the Zhenjun Temple can be moved within the scope of the discovery of the link between the temples in Luodu and Jianglin County.
The statue also has his aura, which should be able to blind Yanren's heavenly eyes.
After finishing everything, it was already midnight. Chen Yuan threw up the Moon Sword and was about to leave with the sword. A flash of light in the night sky caught his attention. When he stopped, the light flew towards this direction.
Swish, swish... it's the sound of paper wings flapping.
A yellow paper crane half the size of a palm flew up in the wind and fell into Chen Yuan's hands. The last light of Dharma lit up all over his body, and the voice of Heavenly Master Zhang Shuangbai came out.
"Chen Yuan, come to the Tianshi Mansion quickly. I already know where Yi Ren is."
The Heavenly Master has also been found?
Chen Yuan looked at the paper crane in his hand that had lost its magic power and quickly dissolved into ashes. Without hesitation, he jumped on the Moon Sword and returned to the city.
Xu Huaiyu was awake in the dormitory. As soon as Chen Yuan left, he opened the door and came out to talk to the fat Taoist and the crazy old man. Soon, Chen Yuan descended from the sky, and he hurried forward to greet him.
As soon as Chen Yuan put away the magic sword, Yue Lu returned to the carriage consciously, and then gave instructions to the man who was bowing down.
"No need to be polite, just go get the pen and ink."
"yes."
Xu Huaiyu cupped his hands and turned around to go back to his dormitory. After a while, he came out with more pen and ink in his hand. The ink was polished and he thought he had written during the day.
"This is a map. There is a temple of the True Lord in the forest. This temple can be operated with formulas. As long as you are in the temple, you can lend me the power of the gods."
Chen Yuan unfolded the paper out of thin air, drew the terrain of the mountain and forest from memory, marked the route in, and wrote a series of formulas at the end.
However, they are all composed of pinyin. Even if outsiders see it, they will not be able to pronounce the meaning.
Xu Huaiyu has learned some, which was taught by Chen Yuan out of boredom when he was in the soul state. Now that he has read it again, he can probably understand it.
"True Lord, I will take good care of you when you are pregnant."
He knew the importance of this mantra, so after taking it with both hands, he folded it several times and put it against his chest to preserve it.
"There will be changes in the city in the future. You can take believers to that temple to take shelter... I have something to leave at the moment. I don't know how long it will take before I can come back. Take care of yourself."
"True Lord...take care!"
Chen Yuan looked at him. Such a separation made waves in his heart. He smiled and returned the salute, then turned around and walked away, raising his hand and snapping his fingers.
The old cow jumped and ran to the carriage, consciously pulled up the reins, and followed happily. The crazy old man and the fat Taoist reacted and caught up, pulling on the carriage fence and rolling in.
"Master (disciple), where are we going?"
"Tianshi Mansion!"
With the soft answer, the ox cart drove away to the street as Xu Huaiyu's family watched. When it arrived at the city gate, the transportation method was used, and the old ox and the carriage were raised high. The soldiers patrolling in the area said, "Wow!"
"Ah!" jumped over the city wall with a horrified cry and landed steadily on the outskirts. Soon, the lantern in the corner of the car lit up and quickly disappeared at the end of the road.
The night turned dark and dark, and the sky broke through the clouds and rose to noon, and the cycle continued on the fifth day.
The ox cart was speeding along the roads, along the Taiwu Mountains, from south to north, and in the afternoon arrived at the foot of the Tianshi Mansion in the mountains.
"Hey, we're finally here, but I'm exhausted." Sun Zhengde put his hands on his hips, looking at the mountains with misty clouds. He quickly came down and moved his limbs, "My boss... you said Tianshi discovered what he discovered this time.
Does the news coincide with what you said?"
Chen Yuan shook his head and got out of the car and said, "Go up first. No matter what, let's listen to what the Heavenly Master has to say."
After saying that, he led the master out of the car and asked Didi Gugu's old cow to follow behind. The three of them walked up the mountain road. After a few days of hard work, even if they were monks, they felt tired after riding all the way in the car.
.
Three people and one cow walked up the stone steps. As they were winding up, they saw at a glance that there were still two or three monks in the Taoism. From their clothes, it was obvious that they were not Taoist priests from the Tianshi Mansion. Those few people also noticed that there was someone behind them and turned around.
It seemed that a smile suddenly appeared on his face and he raised his hand towards Chen Yuan.
"Friend Daoist Chen, long time no see!"
It turned out that they were the monks who went to Yulong Mountain with them. Now that they appeared here, Chen Yuan didn't need to guess. He probably understood that it was the Heavenly Master who sent them a message to come here.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Chen was also found by the Heavenly Master. We are too late. Several groups of fellow Taoists have already arrived." Those few people were waiting for Chen Yuan and walked upward together, their tone of voice was quite respectful.
Some people's faces were solemn, and their energy and blood were surging inside. It must have been a reward from heaven that greatly improved their cultivation. After retreating, they came out with quite impressive gestures and gestures.
"I thought the Heavenly Master was only looking for me." Chen Yuan joked. Everyone did not use any magic power and just walked to the gate of the Heavenly Master's Mansion one step at a time. As expected, more than 20 people gathered, dressed in Juling Mansion costumes.
And from Lihuomen.
"It seems that what the Heavenly Master is going to say is a bit big."
A monk who came with Chen Yuan said softly: "Maybe it has something to do with that concubine."
Following the words, several people walked into the mountain gate, and a group of monks over there bowed their hands in greeting. Some of them were strangers, but they probably heard about what happened last time and rushed over this time when they had the opportunity.
There is a destiny between life and death. Even if you survive, you will be favored by God and get some rewards. That is much easier than sitting alone in a quiet room and practicing. If you die, you will be considered a failure to transcend the heavenly tribulation.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, this way!"
The speaker was also an old acquaintance, and the two elders, He Gui and He Gui, waved to Chen Yuan in the crowd.
"Yuan has met the two elders."
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Gui Yannian laughed loudly and waved his hands, "You have a divine status. It's not enough for the two of us to worship you."
While they were exchanging a few simple greetings, out of the corner of their eye, they saw a girl standing on tiptoes under the eaves of the attic in the distance, waving excitedly to this side, and Chen Yuan smiled at her.
Not long after, a Taoist priest came over and invited everyone to stay in the pavilion where guests were waiting. Only Chen Yuan was taken alone by the little Taoist priest to the mountain wall full of talismans.
Entering the Patriarch Hall, Heavenly Master Zhang Shuangbai was already waiting there, kneeling on a futon to offer incense and worship to the tablets of the Patriarchs of all generations.
"Heavenly Master."
Chen Yuan raised her hand towards him, walked aside, picked up a stick of incense, and was about to light it when Zhang Shuangbai stood up and held it down with his hand, "You can't help it. You are of higher generation. It's okay for you to be above the sixth generation. It's okay for you to be below the sixth generation."
The Patriarch cannot bear your incense."
Well……
Chen Yuan looked at the long incense in his hand, and then at the tablets over there that were not separated separately. He had to put down the incense candle with a smile, and raised his hand towards the tablets of the ancestors across the generations.
After the ceremony, he and Zhang Shuangbai walked to the small room next to him and sat down.
After a Taoist priest came in, poured tea and left, Chen Yuan took a sip of tea and spoke first.
"The Heavenly Master came here to seek me out this time, but because of the incident involving Yiren?"
"Um."
Since it was an urgent matter, Zhang Shuangbai did not go around in circles and told Chen Yuan some things that suddenly occurred to him that day.
"I remember that when the soul was trapped, it was trapped on a small island with blue sky, white clouds and endless sea. It should be that Yanren specially set it up to imprison me, but I thought about it for a long time and never saw where it was. I thought it was the East China Sea.
Somewhere in the South China Sea, but a few days ago I suddenly thought of the sun, and then I realized that the position of the sun's rise and fall was different from the past."
Chen Yuan did not interrupt, and continued to listen quietly with a slight frown.
"... It is our common sense that the rising sun rises in the east, but when I think back to that day, I noticed that the sun rises from the northeast and sets from the northwest. Therefore, I infer that it is definitely not from the Jin Dynasty, but to the west."
Listening to what the old man said, it is more evidence that Zhong Kui said that the concubine is in the West.
Where it is in the West is unknown.
"Everything in the west is unknown, so when I came to look for you this time, I also invited people from the Taoist community here to go to the west together. We have a broad field of vision, and we will definitely find some clues."
It turns out that the purpose is to widen the search range due to the large number of people.
Chen Yuan frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Celestial Master, I think the large number of people will only frighten the snakes. Before I came..."
Immediately, he told Zhang Shuangbai what he was thinking and the arrangements he had made, "...I placed a temple in Luodu as a clone, so that Yanren would not notice it, so that I could go and look to the west.
Look, if so many people go, it will put Yan Ren on guard, and it will create many obstacles for us on the way."
"Your idea is very good, but...it might be a bit risky to do it alone, as the Western world is unknown."
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs."
Hearing this, the Heavenly Master sighed and nodded: "Then what else do you need to prepare?"
"No need..."
Just when Chen Yuan said the next words, there were footsteps outside, and it was Taoist Priest Yuchen who came. He entered the ancestral hall, came to the small room and cupped his hands, with a somewhat ugly look on his face.
"What happened to the Taoist priest?" Chen Yuan stood up and went over to hold his hands.
Yuchen returned the gift with his hands raised, looked at the Heavenly Master, and then said: "I just received Feihe from Yunlong. Something happened at Feiyan Pass. Chengyunmen lost a lot of people. He said that the wolf that killed the barbarians was
The priest came over in person, and Master Liu was also injured by the opponent's spell."
After the words fell, the atmosphere became a little solid.
"Yue Jie people..."
Chen Yuan stood there, looking at the door. There was a slight autumn sun shining in. He squinted in the flying light and dust.
"...Celestial Master, before leaving, why not destroy the country and save yourself from worries."
Zhang Shuangbai and Yuchen opened their mouths slightly, and it took them a long time to react. They also understood that if the Yuejie people continued like this, their westward journey would be delayed. If they ignored it, Yuejie might go south again.
“Instead of jumping around and being capricious, it’s better to eradicate the root cause once and for all.”
I have always treated ordinary people with courtesy. Now, a cold voice sounded in the small room. Chen Yuan, who once slaughtered tens of thousands of people by hand, was back.
He bowed his hands towards Heavenly Master Yuchen, turned around and walked out of the Patriarch Hall. Most of the monks outside also knew the news and looked over.
"Everyone, who is not afraid of harming Tianhe? Let's kill Hu together with Yuan."
The wind blew across the square, and he spoke softly.
