After Zhang Yu walked out of the Xuan Mansion, he was thinking for a moment in front of the outer city wall full of gods and monsters. He felt that the timing of the appearance of the chaotic monster was too coincidental, but was it related to the Restoration of Gods? Following Ji Taoist
The death of the Chaos Monster is unknown.
Taoist Ji, on the other hand, could feel that he had encountered some obstacles in his practice. He probably had the idea of turning to Hun Zhang in his heart, but he had been hesitant before.
But it may be because of this that there is a flaw in his mind, which leads to loopholes. Otherwise, he would not be infected by the chaos monster so easily.
Xu Chengtong came to his side at this time and waited there quietly.
Zhang Yudao: "Deacon Xu will continue to guard the Xuan Mansion these days. If anything happens, come back and repay me."
Xu Chengtong bowed and said: "Yes, patrol."
After Zhang Yu gave instructions, he took up the flying light and flew back to the white boat.
After sitting down in the main cabin, he called out the Great Dao Hun Zhang, and then transferred all the divine energy gained over the years into the seal of "Right Self".
As these divine energy filled in, the seal became much brighter, and at the same time, he felt that his mind and soul had become fuller.
After putting away the Dao Hun Zhang, he also lamented that it is indeed much more convenient to search for source energy in the East Courtyard, especially when his ancient natural history is about exploring the ancient civilization here, and the East Courtyard is the place where he was born, so he is looking for ancient relics.
There is no big obstacle to getting up.
If possible, he hopes to stay here for a longer time. It would be best if he could perfect the seal of "Right Self" here and obtain the Three Elements.
After practicing in the white boat for two days, he took out paper and pen and other drawing tools, and based on his memory, he drew the ruins called "Kuruyinch" that he had visited, and then ordered Qingshu
Take it for framing.
After Qingshu got the mounted painting back, he took it with him and went to Liu Mansion in the east of the city to visit Liu Guang as agreed many days ago.
When Liu Guang heard that he had arrived, he was very happy. He opened the middle door to welcome him and led him all the way into the main hall.
When Zhang Yu came here, he handed the painting to him and said: "I am a Taoist monk, and there are not many good things around me. This painting was painted by me, so I will give it to Brother Liu."
Liu Guang took it with a smile and said, "I'm going to appreciate Brother Zhang's paintings." He placed the painting on the desk with great interest, and then unfolded it carefully.
After taking a look at the painting, he was startled at first, then his movements sped up a little, and when the entire painting was revealed, he couldn't help but look shocked and amazed.
What appeared before his eyes was not a simple painting, but an eventful scene!
This painting was created by Zhang Yu using his own calligraphy and painting. The entire ruins he had seen were copied into it. Not only are the colors rich in layers, but as time goes by, it will also show different changes in light and shadow, and even
Depending on the weather, there will also be changes in cloudiness, rain, and snow.
That's not all. If you move the painting slightly, you can even look at it from different angles. With this painting, you can appreciate the entire ruins!
Liu Guang was very fascinated by what he saw for a while, and he was clicking his tongue. After looking at it for a while, he pointed at a broken stone wall and said: "Judging from the murals and texts, this could be the rumored 'Kuluyinqi' that has long been destroyed."
?”
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Brother Liu is very accurate."
Liu Guang let out a sigh and said with emotion: "As a mere mortal, I often regret not being able to go to the depths of Anshan, but Brother Zhang's painting makes people immersed in the scene, as if they have traveled there in person.
This place has made up for the regret in my heart."
He liked the painting very much. After admiring it for a while, he carefully collected it and said, "Speaking of which, I also have something to give to Brother Zhang." He stretched out his hand and said, "Brother Zhang, please go this way."
Zhang Yu happily obeyed and followed him out of the main hall, along the wide corridor past a pond full of lotus, and came to an incense island. There was an open residence facing the pond, with several rows of curved sandalwood bookshelves.
It is filled with various documents and books.
Zhang Yu glanced upward, and he could see that there was a magic weapon placed above, but it was only used to remove water vapor and dirt.
Liu Guang walked aside, pulled out a volume of atlas that was half a person's height, took out the cowhide cover, then placed it on the big case, slowly opened it, and said: "Brother Zhang, please take a look.
.”
Zhang Yu lowered his eyes and saw that this was a map of the Dongting Protectorate, covering everything from Yanbei Bay in the southwest to Beihai in the north, from the overseas islands in the west, and to Anshan in the east.
The most exciting part is the annotation of the many indigenous tribes in Anshan and the ruins of various ancient countries. It can be seen that each place has undergone detailed and rigorous research.
The location of 'Kuluyinqi' was exactly the same as the place he had been to, but the approximate location was correct.
He nodded and said, "It's really not easy for Brother Liu to be able to draw this picture."
This picture is also Liu Guang's proud work. He said: "In order to sort it out, I consulted a large number of ancient documents and asked Qiu Xueling for advice. Later, after the Protectorate contacted the local people, I also invited many more
The armored sergeant went to explore the dense forest and finally completed this work.
But I still feel dissatisfied. I have never been to those places, so there must be many omissions here, so I dare not show it to others."
He raised his head and bowed to Zhang Yu, "I was thinking that this picture should be handed over to Brother Zhang. If there is anything wrong, I hope Brother Zhang can correct it."
Zhang Yudao: "I have to go deep into Anshan Mountain a few times recently, so I can verify Brother Liu's map."
Liu Guang was very happy, raised his hand and bowed to him, and said: "Then I'll leave it to Brother Zhang." He thought for a while, "By the way, I have collected a lot of ancient tree books here, and I can't figure out many of the characters.
, I also want to ask Brother Zhang to take a look together..."
After a pause, he continued: "In the academy, Brother Zhang, Brother Zhu and Master Xin are the ones who are most devoted to the study of ancient natural history. If I invite these two here some time, we will
Let’s study it in depth together.”
Zhang Yudao: "Brother Liu, just arrange a time."
Liu Guangxi said: "Okay, that's it. I'll contact these two first and then arrange a time."
Zhang Yu stayed in Liu Mansion for most of the day, and did not say goodbye to Liu Guang until after the dinner. But just as he was about to go back to Baizhou, he suddenly felt something. He looked down the street and saw a man walking there.
There is a middle-aged Taoist priest in dark blue robes, followed by a young disciple.
The Taoist came up, slapped his head, and said, "But is Henry Zhang right?"
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "It's me."
The man said: "I'm Tai Zhengping. Ji Yuan is my junior brother. I have some questions to ask Xuanzheng. There is a teahouse in front of me. It looks elegant and quiet, and no one disturbs me. I wonder if I'm lucky enough to ask Xuanzheng."
Have a cup of tea?"
Zhang Yu thought about it and said hello.
Today, the east side of Ruiguang City is still dotted with the residences of most of the dignitaries and officials of the Protectorate. The tea house not far away is also where these dignitaries often go. However, it is almost nightfall at this time, and there are almost no guests.
When the owner of the Tea House saw that two monks were coming, he did not dare to neglect, so he arranged a mountain pavilion for them and asked people to lift up the creation lanterns high, which made the entire hillside dotted with lights.
In the light.
Tai Zhengping invited Zhang Yu to sit down, and after drinking a few cups of tea, he said: "I have heard Xiang Xuanshou tell you about the circumstances of my junior brother's death this time."
He stroked his beard and sighed, "My junior brother had doubts about the method of practice, so he volunteered to come to the East Courtyard to guard the town in order to make up for the shortcomings in his heart. However, he never thought that he would die just like that. It was also his fate.
The calamity."
He raised his head and looked at Zhang Yu, "But there is something I don't understand. Can I ask Zhang Xuanzheng to tell me?"
Zhang Yudao: "If you have any questions, fellow Taoist Taoist Tai, you can express yourself."
Tai Zhengping said slowly: "Did your master do it before my junior brother transformed into a chaos monster, or did he do it after he became a chaos monster?"
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Yu's face that was obscured by the shadow under his hat, and the young disciple standing aside also looked over.
Chaos monsters are very difficult to survive, but if you attack the chaos monster before it completely transforms, you can kill it in advance.
But this brings about another problem. At that time, because the Taoist cultivator has not completed the complete transformation, his identity can still be said to be a person. In other words, if you kill Taoist Ji before he has changed, you will die.
He is not some chaotic monster.
If Zhang Yu did this, it would make sense from a logical point of view, and he could understand such an approach, but it was somewhat difficult to accept it from a moral point of view.
And if this was the case, whether it was out of friendship with his fellow disciples or the reputation of his disciple, he would have to ask Zhang Yu for an explanation. In a way, this was something he had to do but couldn't help himself.
Zhang Yu then stretched out his hand and pointed towards the open space on one side, and suddenly a ray of light flashed out. At this moment, the entire mountain pavilion seemed to have melted away, and what appeared next was the scene where he was talking to Taoist Ji.
.
Every word they said at that time was reflected by him truthfully, and judging from the scene where he looked at the strange shadows as if they were nothing, it was enough to prove that this man had finally completed his transformation.
As for the specific fighting process, since it involved personal secrets, there was no need for him to show it to these two people.
After reading this, Tai Zhengping remained silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed deeply and said, "I see." He raised his hands and bowed his hands, "I already know the matter, and I am disturbing Xuan Zheng now."
The person shown in the light and shadow is indeed Taoist Ji, and his words and deeds are consistent with his actions. He is willing to believe all of this, and this is the best thing so far. He can have an explanation when he goes back.
But at this time, the young disciple suddenly said: "Uncle, I have an objection!"
