Xiao Nishang knew that she could not stop Deng Long from climbing the tower. With a long sigh, Xiao Nishang opened the door to the eighth floor. Deng Long gave Xiao Nishang a complicated look and slowly walked towards the cave.
"Xu Yang!" Xiao Nishang suddenly shouted
Deng Long stopped, but did not look back. He just stood there coldly.
"Xu Yang, wait, I want to go with you!" Xiao Nishang slowly walked toward Deng Long holding the guqin in her arms.
Looking at Xiao Nishang's gentle expression, Li Kangkai touched his nose, his face full of confusion. What kind of luck did Deng Long have to let such a beautiful woman be so attached to him? He shook his head, and Li Kangkai smiled.
Entered the eighth floor
Deng Long was also extremely helpless. Anyway, if Xiao Nishang wanted to follow, she could follow. Anyway, with her own cultivation, she wouldn't be a hindrance for the two of them.
The stone path leading to the eighth floor of the cave was winding and winding. The three of them walked for half an hour before finally reaching the eighth floor. As soon as they entered the eighth floor, Deng Long felt a huge spiritual power.
, tried to activate his spiritual power, and Deng Long was pleasantly surprised to find that on this eighth level, his spiritual power spells could be used again.
Deng Long and the others had just walked into the cave. Outside the cave stood a dozen Taoist priests in Taoist robes, holding whisks in their hands. They were already waiting. When these people saw Deng Long, their eyes were full of surprise. They had never expected Deng Long.
We reached the eighth floor so quickly
The two Taoist priests ran quickly into the cave...
"Master, they have arrived at the eighth floor. Please give instructions, Master!" The disciple kneeled respectfully outside the door and said.
"Yes, I have indeed not disappointed you. Let them in. No matter what happens, don't come in and disturb them. Do you understand?" Zhengde touched his beard and said solemnly.
"Yes, Master!" The two disciples quickly returned to the cave. The dozen Taoist priests were in a stalemate with Deng Long and the others. Without Master's decree, they would never let Deng Long and the others in. The same Deng Long
They didn't dare to act rashly and enter by force. These Taoist priests were all masters of the Maoshan sect. They definitely didn't dare to fight one against ten, so both sides were in a stalemate.
"According to Master's decree, the three of you are allowed to enter the pagoda!" the disciples who were sent to the cave said loudly.
The dozen or so Taoist priests looked at Deng Long and the others coldly, and stepped aside one after another. Under the leadership of the two messenger disciples, the Deng Long and the others walked towards the secret room of Zhengde.
"Master! The people who broke into the tower have arrived!" the disciple who ordered the order said respectfully.
"Let them in!" A majestic voice came from inside, and then with a bang, the door of the secret room opened wide. Deng Long and Li Kangkai nodded and strode inside. Xiao Nishang followed with her guqin in her arms.
As soon as the three of them entered the secret room, the door of the secret room slammed shut. There were many white candles burning in the secret room, and there was a faint scent of sandalwood floating in the air. The stone walls were covered with huge talisman silk cloth, and the scarlet cinnabar looked extremely weird.
, in the center is a huge altar enshrining the Three Purities Dharma. Under the altar sits a Taoist wearing a white Taoist robe.
Deng Long knew that this was the contemporary master of Maoshan, Zhengde Celestial Master. This Zhengde had a childish face, plump skin, fair and rosy skin, smooth skin, drooping ears and shoulders, white hair and white eyebrows, and a pair of fairy-like bones.
People look up and respect them
"You are here!" Zhengde opened his eyes and said after a long time, two rays of light shot out from his eyes. Deng Long felt like he was transparent. Under the gaze of Zhengde, no one could hide the secret in his heart.
"Are you Mr. Zhengde?" Li Kangkai shouted angrily. Zhengde's gaze was indeed extremely uncomfortable.
Zhengde was not angry and smiled slightly: "Yes, I am the Maoshan Zhengde Heavenly Master, the guardian of the eighth level."
"Zhengde, I think you are also an expert. Why do you go against the will of heaven and help the evildoers?" Deng Long asked.
"The reason is very simple. China cannot live without an emperor. Only with an emperor and Taoism becoming the state religion can China become prosperous and strong again. In the past, Emperor Gaozu used Taoism to govern the troubled times in the late Qin Dynasty, which brought prosperity to the Han Dynasty. But today, China is in internal troubles
In the midst of foreign aggression, the Chinese people did not want to work together to expel the barbarians. Instead, they continued to fight within themselves. Especially Sun Wen, who shouted and killed all day long. Does China have to be a republic to have a way out? Can't China have a second one?
Emperor? The world is ignorant, how can it know that I, Zhengde, have great plans to care for the people?" Zhengde's loud and majestic voice said, echoing in the cave for a long time.
"False! Stupid! ***Republic is the aspiration of the people and the general trend of heaven. It is precisely because of the decay of feudal royal power that the whole world has the final say. This has caused our great China to be bullied by the barbarians and cut off the land. Today Cai Cai
General E raised his arms in Yunnan, and the whole world gathered to respond. Yuan Shikai was at the end of his rope. Didn't he expect that there are still old stubborns like you in this world who don't understand the general situation?" When Deng Long heard what Zhengde said so plausibly, he couldn't help but get angry in his heart. It's precisely these things
People with residual feudal ideas blocked the revolutionary reform at every turn, which made the revolution never complete. Fighting and killing occurred all day long, and the people were still in dire straits.
"Young man, you are wrong. The country is corrupt and dilapidated. It is not because of the fault of the royal power. The country's decline is mainly due to those monarchs who are not enterprising, talented and moral. Who can say that the Kangxi and Qianlong periods were not good? Now Hongxian
The emperor is determined to work hard, eliminate the shortcomings, restore China, and return to the prosperous dynasty. It is a good time for us to serve, but the world is ignorant and does not understand the overall situation." Zhengde touched his beard and said loudly
"Fart, what kind of prosperous dynasty? I only know that only a republic can turn the world into a private world. Yuan Shikai is suicidal by proclaiming himself emperor. He is the public enemy of the 40 million Chinese people." Li Kangkai waved his fist and said angrily
Zhengde shook his head and sighed: "I saw that you two are brave and resolute, and are talents that can be made. You can even pass on my mantle, but you two are stubborn. Now I ask you for the last time, if you are willing to follow Emperor Hong Xian
, just stay, if you don’t want to, please come down from the tower.”
Zhengde belongs to the same sect, and when he saw that the two of them had great talents, he liked them very much and wanted to use them for his own use, so he persuaded the two of them. Now that he saw that they were determined to go against him, although he was angry, he could not
I don’t want the two lives, so I hope Deng and Long will understand and get off the tower.
"My two brothers went up to the tower today with no intention of going back alive. We will not get down from the tower until we kill the traitors!" Deng Long said proudly.
"Such an arrogant tone, let me see what you are capable of doing to get past me!" Zhengde stood up, looked at Deng Long and the others coldly, and shouted angrily.
