A dim stone path passed through the densely packed "human dishes". Qingshui Liuli walked on this path with a chill all over. She felt that her body temperature kept dropping.
The surroundings were illuminated by Xiaoyu and Shuangcheng constantly spitting out burning grass roots, and the sight was extremely poor. When turning a corner, Qingshui Liuli's face suddenly pressed against a cocoon, and a "human dish" was hung upside down here, with half-open eyes.
, staring at her face.
"ah!"
Qingshui Liuli was startled, but Taizhen turned around and signaled her to be silent with his finger.
Qing Shui Liuli then covered her mouth with her hands. She noticed that Tai Zhen, who had no spiritual power, no longer trembled after seeing these people.
Taizhen was the first to walk in the darkness. His seemingly weak body was actually so strong.
After walking for a long time, I finally walked out of this cave. Before Qingshui Liuli could breathe a sigh of relief, the next cave was still full of human cocoons!
"How much...is this...?"
Qingshui Liuli looked around blankly, wondering what kind of person would do such a crazy thing and store people like food.
Or maybe, this is just the handiwork of some god.,
Walking further inside, the next cave is no longer a vegetable cellar, but a huge altar.
The altar was built according to the mountain topography. It has three floors. Each floor has dozens of high steps. On the top floor, a Taoist with an immortal style sat cross-legged in front of a bronze tripod. His left hand pointed to the sky and his right hand pointed to the ground.
I am the only one in heaven and earth.
A row of black-clad soldiers stood at the bottom of the altar. When they saw someone entering, they all turned their heads and looked over. Their helmets rubbed against their shoulder armor, making a "squeaking" sound.
The leading soldier shouted loudly: "Who bothered the sect leader to go to immortality for pure cultivation?"
Taizhen stopped here and took out a yellow talisman from his arms. The talisman caught fire in the wind and turned into a luxuriously decorated crown. It was studded with pearls and treasures, forming a magnificent and dazzling gold and silver flower.
.
Taizhen put the flower crown on his head and said loudly to the soldiers: "Yang Yuhuan, the imperial concubine of the Kaiyuan Shenwen and Shenwu Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, invites the immortal..."
She paused and then said: "Fall into eternal hell!"
…
Lan Hua was sitting cross-legged on a roof. It was the first village they came to. The village was full of corpses. The old man they asked for directions was dead, with no limbs, and his death was miserable.
Lan Hua calmed down the fluctuations in his heart and repeatedly pieced together the things he knew. He was familiar with ancient classics, and at this moment, this advantage came into play.
The first information he thought of was a record in Volume 41 of Immortals in "Taiping Guangji". During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, there was a scholar with half of his body black and black. The imperial doctor Zhang Shangrong and others could not treat him. He heard that there were immortals in the sea, so he
Hanging the sail and following the wind, I saw a fairy mountain on the sea. There were villagers on the mountain praying for blessings, and the gods gave medicine. Later I learned that the medicine was given by Xu Fu, who went to sea during the reign of Qin Shihuang. Xu Fu gave him several pills of black medicine, but he vomited after eating it.
After a lot of black juice, the disease was cured. Before leaving, Xu Fu gave him a bag of yellow pills. After the scholar returned, he presented the pills to the palace as tribute.
It is recorded in the book: "At that time, Xuanzong ordered those who were sick to take it and they would all recover."
The second information is "New Book of Tang". In the fifth year of this era, in the first month of the 28th year of Kaiyuan, Guisi, Princess Yang of Shou was appointed as a Taoist priest, named Taizhen.
Lu Li said that in the twenty-eighth year of Kaiyuan, Xuanyuan Sword Immortal met people from the Yingzhou Immortal Sect on the sea.
According to the "New Book of Tang", in the fifth month of this era, in the eleventh month of the fourteenth year of Tianbao's reign, Anlu Mountain rebelled and captured all the counties in Hebei Province.
The Anshi Rebellion broke out, and many people died this year.
This year, Chixuan Zhenren, the master of Baiyun Temple in Qingcheng Mountain, went down to the mountain to rescue the people.
"New Book of Tang" in the sixth book of this era, the fifteenth year of Tianbao, Xuanzong avoided thieves and traveled to Mawei. The elders blocked the road and asked the prince to stay to fight against thieves.
This year, Master Chixuan heard that the Yingzhou Immortal Sect had summoned monks from all over the world, and generously attended the appointment.
The third source is a well-known long narrative Tang poem, in which several lines say:
There is a daughter in the Yang family who has just grown up, but she is raised in a boudoir and no one knows her... Looking back, she smiles with all her beauty, the pink and white in the sixth palace are colorless...
Yuyang's flying dragon came to the ground, shocking the colorful and feathery clothes... The six armies were helpless without sending a move, and they died in front of the horse with their eyebrows turned...
Linqiong Taoist priest Hongdu Ke, who can reach the soul with his sincerity...Suddenly I heard that there is a fairy mountain on the sea, and the mountain is in the ethereal place...
Among them, there is a person whose character is too true, with snow-skinned and colorful appearance. He knocks on the jade stick in the west chamber of the Golden Palace, and converts to Xiaoyu to report double success...
In the sky, I wish to be a winged bird, and in the earth, I wish to be a twig. The eternity of heaven and earth will eventually come to an end, and this hatred will last forever!
The name of this poem is - "Song of Everlasting Sorrow".
After going through the information in his mind, Lan Hua sighed, it turned out to be like this.
The fairy mountain that the scholars found was Yingzhou. At that time, there were immortals in Yingzhou who gave medicine. The fairy mountain on the sea of Eternal Sorrow was still Yingzhou, and Yang Yuhuan was in Yingzhou at that time.
The Yingzhou Immortal Sect captured Yang Yuhuan and defrauded many refugees.
He sighed, he should have thought of it a long time ago. Xuanzong was lucky to be in Shu, and there were wars all the way. Yao'er was the name for children in the Sichuan-Shu region.
He said to a paper dragon ball in front of him: "So, uncle, you are the Linqiong Taoist priest?"
A face appeared on the surface of the dragon ball. This man had a curly beard and a long beard. He did not look like a Taoist priest at all, but he wore a crown of peace.
The Taoist priest with a beard said: "Pindao is a native of Linqiong in central Sichuan. He has practiced Taoism in Qingcheng since he was a child."
After a pause, he added: "The Taoist priest of our temple has a close relationship with me..."
"stop!"
Lan Hua's forehead twitched and interrupted him, saying: "Uncle Master, I have told you many times that I am your successor more than a thousand years later."
This Taoist priest with a beard turned out to be his great uncle, Chi Xuan, the one-armed real man who came down from the mountain.
"oh."
Master Chi Xuan shook his head and said: "Quick, hurry up and save Taizhen!"
"You just said that Concubine Yang has her own things to do. We returned to the ground to find the treasure house of the Yingzhou Immortal Sect."
"That's right, this treasure house is on the ground, right here... Hey, why are all the fake immortals going in the same direction?"
When Master Chixuan said this, Lan Hua also raised his head in confusion. Whether it was the floating clouds carrying the Taoist priests or the cranes, they ignored them and gathered directly in one direction.
He wanted to summon the God of Liujia, but his spiritual power was almost exhausted. Master Chixuan saw his hesitation and shouted: "Open your mouth!"
"What?"
Chi Xuan didn't quite understand, but he still chose to follow his uncle's advice and opened his mouth uneasily.
Chi Xuan opened his mouth and spit out a stream of white water, which was as bright as jade, and spit it directly into Lan Hua's mouth.
Faced with this sudden blow, Lan Hua was completely stunned. However, there was no stench of thousand-year-old corpses at the entrance of the water, but only a refreshing fragrance. He swallowed it unexpectedly, and suddenly felt sweet and refreshing, and his limbs were full of bones.
They are all regaining their strength.
"This is……"
"There is a jade paste like wine in Yingzhou, which is called jade wine. Drinking it can make people live forever."
After Master Chixuan vomited the wine, the color of the entire dragon ball became much darker.
"This is jade wine." Lan Hua smashed his mouth. Although the origin of the wine was disgusting, it was an immortal spring. He felt that he had regained most of his spiritual power.
So he summoned the God of Liujia and ran towards the hillside where he was looking around. After going up the hillside, he got himself a talisman to enhance his eyesight. He saw that the place where the fake immortals gathered was the village where Yao'er lived.
, there, various lights flashed continuously, and it was obvious that someone was fighting.
The amber eyes in the sky are also staring there.
The overwhelming cranes swooped towards the ground, and the auspicious clouds came down one by one, pigs, dogs, and bears, jumping down towards the ground.
These hundreds of fake immortals have only one goal, which is a section of the city wall. There is a little girl standing with her mouth stretched out, and a Monkey Taoist with ten broken fingers squatting in the corner covering his head.
In the middle, a young man wearing a Xiaoyao scarf, walking on ten square shoes, holding an unsheathed sword, stared coldly at the fake immortals.
The Taoist robes on his body were all stained with blood, and the corpses of fake immortals were spread out in front of him.
"Friend Lu Dao!"
Lan Hua couldn't help sighing at the Taoist friend's strength. He quickly ordered Liujia Shen to jump off the cliff and go to the rescue.
