The sky is getting late, and the gorgeous flaming clouds have already retreated to the east. The night is now covering a thick layer of black, which evens out the ink color, leaving the shining moonlight in the east.
"Disciple, since I have become a disciple of Qingxu Guan, it's time to tell me about their Qingxu Guan."
After having enough wine and food, Taoist Shanhai once again looked like a worldly expert. He looked at the oil lamp on the table and spoke softly.
The oil lamp had a faint flame. The light was not large, but it filled the outside of the house with a pale yellow light. Compared with the howling cold wind outside, it seemed much warmer.
Jiang Chen also straightened his body, raised his ears, and looked at Taoist Shanhai seriously.
"I don't know whether Qingxu Temple could have become one of the ten famous Taoist temples in the country fifty years ago. At that time, his master, who was your master, could have become one of the ten great heavenly masters in the country.
." Taoist Shanhai's tone was full of pride. At that time, Qingxu Guan could be said to be at its peak. There were countless disciples of Qingxu Guan in Mendong. They were all present in the imperial court and in the countryside in the east.
"The scene I saw before can't be compared to the scene fifty years ago." Jiang Chen felt the deep sadness of Ye Chang in Shanhai Taoist's body.
Jiang Chen knew that something unimaginable happened to Juecuo at that time, which caused Qingxu Temple to be submerged in history.
"Master, what happened that year and where did Master go?"
Taoist Master Shanhai's eyes were slightly moist, but he did not hide anything and continued to speak: "The current king of the great feudal country at that time actually said that my master colluded with evil spirits and attempted to harm the imperial court and the country."
"That caused huge waves back then. My master's reputation was ruined overnight. Countless righteous people hated my master to the core."
"He knows that things are absolutely wrong. My master is an upright man and hates evil as much as his enemies. He has killed countless demons and monsters and established a great reputation."
"How can such a person collude with evil spirits and murder the imperial court and the country?!"
"There is absolutely a huge secret in it!"
Taoist Shanhai became more and more excited as he talked, his face suddenly turned red, and he coughed violently, as if he was coughing up his lungs.
"Master, am I okay?" Jiang Chen even went to help Taoist Shanhai.
"Master!" Qingxuan's face changed suddenly. He walked over to Taoist Shanhai, took out a small cyan bottle from his sleeve, opened the stopper, poured out a red pill as small as a soybean, and quickly gave it to Taoist Shanhai.
, and then massaged his acupoints and massaged the blood stasis.
After living for a long time, Taoist Shanhai's face became rosier and he looked less uncomfortable.
He smiled at Qingxuan, then patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder and said, "The same old habit happened again, making us laugh."
"Master, I'm afraid that old Taoist priest has lived for three years." Yuan Ao's words suddenly sounded in Jiang Chen's mind.
"His meridians are blocked. I'm afraid he has been poisoned for a long time. I hope it could have been cured a few years ago, but now I'm afraid it's too late." Yuan Aofu's soul state was naturally able to easily detect the strangeness of Shan Hai's body.
After Jiang Chen heard this, he couldn't help but stiffen and took a deep look at Taoist Master Shanhai.
"It's fine for me, don't worry." Seeing Qingxuan's worried look, Taoist Master Shanhai waved his legs.
"My master has been so unjustly accused, so why don't he implicate other people? He really had no choice at first, so he went to surrender alone to fight for a chance of survival for other disciples."
"Without my master, Qingxu Guan was surrounded by foreign troubles and foreign invasions. It initially fell apart, and then was lost in the rings of history."
"If his master is really a very evil person, he will definitely not care about the safety of Mendong disciples. With his cultivation, he can leave alone, and there is nothing the Great Feng Kingdom can do to get him!"
Taoist Shanhai was full of unerring confidence in his master!
"Jiang Chen, he did not accept me as his disciple temporarily, but he did have a master-disciple relationship with me. Tomorrow night he will try his best to gather thunder seeds for me. I hope that when I have the ability, I can do it after the month.
I want to bring justice to my master."
"Can I do it?!" Taoist Master Shanhai had a look of exhaustion in his eyes.
When Jiang Chen heard this, he thought for a while and nodded solemnly. Taoist Master Shanhai's intention was very clear. I hope you can learn the thunder method, and when you have the ability after the month, you can also do something for Qingxu Guan.
Jiang Chen felt that there was no such thing as a pie in the sky. If there was, it would not be a trap.
As for the thunder method, Jiang Chen thinks it’s worth it!
Taoist Shanhai nodded with satisfaction.
"It's getting late. After taking a bath and changing clothes, my master took me into the thunder gathering array, and led the sky to gather thunder seeds for me."
"Master, he wants to ask Yidong whether there is any danger in condensing thunder seeds and what preparations he needs to make?" Jiang Chen hesitated and asked his doubts.
Jiang Chen had some doubts. If he used his human body to attract the thunder from heaven and earth, wouldn't that mean he was seeking death?
The power of thunder is so violent, can it really be successful?
If he kills himself, it will be a huge loss.
"Disciple, don't worry. I have naturally thought of that. The thunder gathering formation I have arranged is absolutely perfect to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
"The master has made preparations. After attracting the thunder, the thunder gathering formation can absorb 99% of the power. You can successfully gather the thunder seeds."
"As a master, you will be with me." Taoist Shanhai gave Jiang Chen a reassuring look.
After the three of them took a bath and changed clothes, Taoist Shanhai wore a yellow Taoist robe, while Jiang Chen and Qing Xuan wore gray Taoist robes.
According to Shan Hai, the two of them were of very low rank and could wear the lowest level of gray robes.
"They are in the mountain." After the old Taoist priest changed into a yellow robe, his complexion seemed to be much better. He put his legs on his back, threw the dazzling backpack to Jiang Chen, and took the lead in leading the way.
The surrounding temperature gradually became dull, and Jiang Chen knew that this was a sign of an approaching storm.
The three of them walked towards the back of the earthen house, and soon came to an open space one acre in size. There was a large red altar in the center of the open space.
The altar has nine brown stone pillars that are seven to eight meters long and one meter wide in radius. The pillars are carved with obscure and complex runes, which are quite extraordinary.
The thunder is getting closer and closer, and you can even see lightning piercing the night sky, like red day.
The wind is getting stronger and stronger, the dark clouds are gathering more and more densely, and the sky is getting darker and darker, which makes several people feel as if there is a stone weighing on their hearts.
"Jiang Chen, calm down and concentrate, don't think about anything, go to the altar quickly." Seeing that the time was almost up, Taoist Shanhai said loudly.
Jiang Chen nodded, put the basket on his back, and faced the strong wind, stepping onto the altar step by step.
"Qingxuan, take his Dao sword!" Seeing that Jiang Chen had entered the altar, Shanhai's expression became extremely serious, because standing there was not his disciple, not to mention the seed of hope for the entire Qingxu Temple.
Qingxuan went to hand a purple wooden sword into Shanhai's legs and quickly exited the altar.
"Jiang Chen, no matter what you see later, stick to your heart. If you want to condense the thunder seed, just wait to accept its test!"
As soon as Shanhaihua finished speaking, a storm poured from the east like a waterfall.
Suddenly, the sky suddenly became dense with dark clouds and violent thunder roared, as if there was a snow-red jade dragon rolling in the dark rain clouds, its scales and claws spread out, and it rained heavily!
