The three Taoist priests looked confused, frowned, and were all in confusion.
Su Wu turned to look at a certain female crown who lived with 'Li Juan', and asked: "Why is the word 'Juan' engraved on the inside of the rattan bracelet on your hand? But is there anyone closer to her? , has this word in your name?”
The female crown smoothed off the rattan bracelet on her wrist, and sure enough she saw a deeply carved word "juan" on the inside of the bracelet.
She pursed her lips and said doubtfully: "My parents, my close relatives and friends, there is no one with the word 'Juan' in their name..."
Su Wu then asked some questions to several other people related to the missing Taoist priests.
The Taoist priests who were asked questions all looked confused.
I always feel like I have thought of something, but when I think about it carefully, I get nothing.
Yun Nishang, a staff member of the Celestial Affairs Bureau, and several purple-robed Taoist priests all vaguely guessed something after hearing the conversation between Su Wu and the disciples. The white-bearded Heavenly Master looked at each other and lowered his voice. He said loudly: "The six Taoist priests that friend Su mentioned must indeed be our disciples on the mountain.
But...why don't we have any impression at all?
This is so weird."
Su Wu's face was a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "The memories of these six people up and down Longhu Mountain have been erased - not only the memories of these people, but even the cause and effect of these six people are gradually being lost.
If we hadn't come faster this time,
If we come back in a few days, maybe even the book in my hand and the evidence stored in the system will be lost due to various reasons, and there will be no trace."
"Erase cause and effect?" The Heavenly Master was surprised when he heard this.
Su Wu nodded, then turned to Yun Nishang and ordered: "Please ask the security personnel from the six missing Taoist priests' origins to immediately investigate the families of the six Taoist priests to see if there is anything gained.
——It’s been so long, I’m worried that their family members will be regarded as part of their ‘karma’ and be wiped out.
Let them investigate quickly and let me know the results as soon as possible."
"Okay!" Yun Nishang responded immediately, turned to the corner and started contacting all parties.
After ordering Yun Nishang, Su Wu raised his head and looked towards Longhu Mountain, only to feel that the palace, temple and Taoist temple behind the mountain gate archway were enveloped in an indescribable gloomy atmosphere. His expression was calm, and he turned to talk to the people surrounding him. The purple-robed Taoist priest said: "Take me to the Wanfa Zongtan Hall to have a look."
…
Linyang City.
In the corridor of a building somewhere.
A woman with gray hair and wrinkles on her face climbed the stairs side by side with a strong-looking woman with black hair.
They both carried a vegetable basket and walked to their homes talking and laughing.
"Didn't you Zhou Ze go home to see you recently?
You haven't been home for three or four months, right?" The black-haired woman walked to the door of her living room, took out the key and opened the security door, and asked the gray-haired woman who walked to the opposite door and was also fumbling for the key to open the door.
"No, I haven't seen him in half a year.
There seems to be a lot of commotion in Longhu Mountain recently. I just had a phone call with him yesterday.
There's nothing wrong with him." The gray-haired woman opened the security door and opened the door inside. She turned back to the raven-haired woman and said with a smile, "Fang, I'm going back to cook first. Let's go play cards together in the afternoon. !”
'Fang' responded and walked into her room.
The two neighbors smiled and waved to each other, then locked their doors.
The gray-haired woman changed her shoes at the door and walked to the living room with a vegetable basket. She took out a few apples from a cloth bag and placed them on the fruit plate on the coffee table in the living room. Then she opened the refrigerator in the corner and put a few lettuces and tomatoes.
, put the eggs in the refrigerator,
Then he pushed the refrigerator door open.
There are many refrigerator magnets stuck on the outside of the refrigerator that is as tall as one person.
In addition to some refrigerator magnets from tourist attractions, there are also several photos of a gray-haired woman and a middle-aged man with a broad face and thick eyebrows, wearing a Taoist robe, in front of some mountain scenery.
After closing the refrigerator, she turned and walked into the kitchen.
He placed a piece of plum meat on the tiled table, took out a few green onions and two pieces of ginger from his cloth bag, then turned the mouth of the cloth bag downwards, and poured out the full bag directly.
of potatoes.
Potatoes are piled in the corner,
The gray-haired woman selected a few and washed them in batches with the plum meat, green onion and ginger.
Then he took out his mobile phone and made a call.
She put her phone on the tiles and turned on the speakerphone. The name 'Zhou Ze' was displayed on the screen.
"All--"
The phone rang.
The woman began to peel potatoes.
Swish, swish, swish...
"All--"
The dial prompt sounded twice, and then a hollow female voice came from the phone: "The number you dialed is not available..."
Empty number?
The woman stopped, frowned slightly, and said to herself: "Is the signal bad?
How could it be an empty number?”
She reached out to grab the mobile phone next to her, but when she lowered her head and saw that her hands were covered in dirt, she turned to the sink to wash herself.
On the screen of her mobile phone that she placed on the tiles, the contact 'Zhou Ze', as well as all the information related to her son that the woman had stored in her mobile phone, quickly disappeared...
As that information disappears,
The entire phone is like a pencil drawing on white paper, with traces wiped away layer by layer by an invisible 'eraser'.
Next to the kitchen, on the refrigerator placed in the corner, the photo with the appearance of 'Zhou Ze' disappeared;
In the room where Zhou Ze had been living since his return, all the furnishings were gone, and the entire room slowly disappeared;
The gray-haired woman wiping her hands clean in the kitchen also had all traces erased by an invisible eraser.
Furthermore, the entire 'Zhou Ze's home' disappeared silently.
No more traces left in the world!
I don’t know how long it took, but the neighbor named ‘Fang’ opened the security door and looked at the empty white wall opposite, with confusion flashing in his eyes.
"Strange...what am I going to do when I go out?" Fang muttered to herself, then retracted behind the door and locked the door.
…
Before Tianshi's private residence.
All the Taoist priests gathered in the corridor in front of the door with serious faces, all looking at Su Wu in the corner, who had his back to them.
Su Wu and Yun Nishang looked at Yun Nishang in front of them and asked, "How is the situation?"
"The security personnel of the six missing Taoist priests' respective places of residence, in collaboration with members of the local Weird Countermeasures Department, conducted a preliminary investigation after we called them.
——The identities of these six people do not exist in their system.
There is no way to find the home addresses of each of the six people.
I communicated with them again and exchanged clues based on some incomplete information provided by the Rural Affairs Bureau system. They have now gone to investigate based on the 'Zhou Selection' home address information provided by the Rural Affairs Bureau.
Zhou Ze's home is in Linyang City, and some of the Xuanmen Masters still stay there.
It shouldn’t take long to know the results of the investigation." Yun Nishang said solemnly.
Su Wu shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Since these six Taoist priests no longer exist in their system, I am afraid that the parents and families of the six Taoist priests have been wiped out.
The results of the investigation will not be optimistic.
The last traces of six people in the world,
It's just a trace in the system of the Family Affairs Bureau.
The hidden existence behind this incident had foreseen my actions in advance and made various arrangements in a targeted manner. The possibility of catching them out this time is already very slim.
Let’s see if there are any other gains at the Ten Thousand Fa Sect Altar.”
"Okay." Yun Nishang nodded.
The two of them walked together into the group of Taoists. Surrounded by the Taoists from Longhu Mountain, they entered the Tianshi's residence and walked straight to the 'Wanfa Zongtan Hall'.
In the main hall,
All furnishings are as before.
Statues of the Three Purities, Four Imperials, Five Elders and Three Officials stand throughout the hall, faintly surrounding the entire hall.
Below the statue of the Three Pure Gods in the center,
The scrolls are stacked one after another, and the hierarchy is strict, like a forest.
The many scrolls depicting the ancestors of Longhu Mountain are naturally the ancestors of the past dynasties, with high principles and dharma-protecting gods.
Under the scroll, there is a long offering table.
There are gold lamps and red candles on the table, copper stoves and incense, and various magical instruments are arranged in order on the table.
Dharma utensils, scrolls, incense and all these forms a complete ‘Wanfa Zongtan’!
Accompanied by the old Heavenly Master and the Altar-protecting Master, Su Wu stepped into the Ten Thousand Fa Zong Altar. The 'Wan Fa Zong Altar' talisman between his heart chakra and the Tianguan Chakra was not touched at all.
At present, the main altar of the 'Wanfa Zong Altar' seems to have no involvement.
Such strange signs made Su Wu frown secretly.
He glanced at the scrolls on the altar table, stepped forward, lit a stick of incense, bowed and inserted it into the incense burner.
The temple full of gods and Buddhas was silent and indifferent.
——This ‘Ten Thousand Dharma Sect Altar’ has turned into a complete decoration!
The Dharma altar's role in connecting the genealogy of three mountains, communicating with the ancestors of the past generations, and communicating with the disciples under the altar has been completely lost!
Su Wu raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Dharma Altar carefully. He already realized that the current Dharma Altar was only an empty shell, so his Ten Thousand Fa Zong Altar Talisman was completely different from the main altar of the Wan Fa Zong Altar.
No reaction!
So he walked into the palace, gathering inspiration,
But it’s no longer what it used to be—suddenly, I have the feeling that all the gods in the temple are opening their eyes and staring at me in a dark way!
But who can quietly take away the ‘bones’ of such a huge Wanfa Zongtan, which was formed after gathering the three mountain Dharma altars?!
"I plan to open an altar here to practice dharma, plant cause and effect, and reverse the past." Su Wu suddenly turned around and looked at the old heavenly master behind him, "I need a few magical artifacts on the Wanfa Zong altar as seeds for planting karma.
'!"
"How to open the altar?" Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Master's eyes suddenly flashed with light, "Okay!
Whatever magic weapon your friend Su needs, you can use it yourself!"
The magical artifacts on the altar table have all been passed down from ancient times by the Celestial Master's Mansion and are enshrined on the altar. The Celestial Masters of the past dynasties rarely use them for fear of accidentally damaging the magical artifacts.
When the Heavenly Master heard that Su Wu was going to open an altar here to practice Dharma, he needed to use his own magical tools.
But there was no hesitation at all and he nodded directly in agreement!
He has been cultivating Taoism to this day, but there is no trace of it.
I also want to see the real Taoism in my lifetime!
