The other party actually refused to get close to Lu Zheng at all, and just lost a little bit before retreating away, very decisively.
Lu Zheng touched the water gently and moved up. The old turtle swam under him and let him fall on his back.
"Friend Lu Dao has a profound knowledge and exquisite swordsmanship, which I admire greatly."
"You're so polite, fellow Taoist Turtle, may I ask what kind of force this Panshui Cave is?" Lu Zheng asked.
There had just been a fight, and then he let someone escape. Judging from the meaning of his words, he didn't know if he was just being cruel or if he was really unfinished, so of course Lu Zheng had to ask clearly.
"Panshuidong is also a practicing sect with a long heritage. It respects Master Gu Yu as its ancestor and has always been based in eastern Sichuan."
Old Turtle said, "Later, an ancestor from Panshui Cave came out of the mountain, accepted the invitation from the previous dynasty, and became the national advisor of the previous dynasty."
Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, "This doesn't seem to be anything, right?"
It is normal for a cultivating sect to cooperate with the imperial court. Doesn't Baiyun Temple also share the fragrance and fire with the imperial court? There are even disciples working in Zhenyi Division, as long as they are not completely tied to death.
"The problem is that the ancestor accepted a prince from the previous dynasty as his disciple, and then that prince became the cave master of Panshui Cave." Old Turtle said, "Later, the previous dynasty declined, the great scene gained momentum, and Panshui Cave was merged.
Instead of watching from the sidelines, he participated in the general trend of dynasty change... So after Emperor Jing ascended the throne, he ordered the Panshui Cave to be destroyed. From then on, the Panshui Cave disappeared and was not seen in the world."
"Uh...that's it..."
Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, thinking that this was no wonder. It is estimated that many sects and sects that retreated to southern Xinjiang were in a similar situation.
After thinking about it, Lu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, "So Panshui Cave also retreated into southern Xinjiang? Did he send some disciples to stir up trouble?"
The old turtle shook his head, "No, Panshui Cave is a sect with ancient inheritance. It has its own cave heaven and blessed land. After the Great Scenery established the dynasty, it sealed the cave heaven on its own and did not appear in the human world."
Lu Zheng was stunned, "Then that person just now..."
"Of course there will be a door in Panshui Cave for disciples to enter and exit." Old Turtle said matter-of-factly.
Lu Zheng, "..."
"Didn't Da Jing Dynasty send anyone to exterminate them?" Lu Zheng asked curiously.
There are many masters in the Da Jing Dynasty. If they are really serious, they can naturally track the Panshui Cave disciples and find the Panshui Cave Cave Heaven.
The old turtle shook his head, "Panshui Cave is not a heretic, and there are many ancestors in the cave. Since the mountain gate and cave sky have been sealed, the great scenery is naturally not too big for ourselves.
However, this is also a tacit understanding secretly. At least the Panshui Dong disciples cannot walk openly on the boundary of the Great Scenery, and if the Great Scenery is in trouble, Panshui Dong will not hesitate to help."
Lu Zheng frowned and asked, "Even if the rain increases, the people will suffer?"
The old turtle was silent, and after a moment he said, "This matter is a bit too much, I will report it to He Bo."
Lu Zheng nodded, thinking that the sect located in the Central Plains might not necessarily be able to deal with Da Jingchao.
in addition……
Panshui Cave is actually a paradise of its own?
So awesome!
By now, Lu Zheng knew that there was a cave heaven in the back mountain of Baiyun Temple. He didn't know if the Jinhua sect had one, but there was definitely no such thing as Dingfeng Mountain in southern Xinjiang.
Cave heaven, blessed land, secret realm.
The secret realm is the smallest, such as the small secret realm in Jiming Temple, which is just a hilltop and only three to five miles in radius.
The diameter distance of large secret realms is between twenty and fifty miles.
A blessed land is basically between fifty and one hundred miles in radius.
If the diameter exceeds two hundred miles, it is a cave, basically equivalent to a small world.
Of course, to make it sound nice, most people call it Dongtian, so except for their own family, no one knows what level the Dongtian Paradise in Panshui Cave is.
Well, not counting the underworld, which is made up of countless yin and underworld soils, and is almost not much smaller than the yang world.
The Baiyun Cave in the back mountain of Baiyun Temple is the most important heritage of Baiyun Temple. Non-ancestors and direct descendants of the core cannot enter. It is said that the cave is full of elixirs and is a treasured place for cultivation.
Well, anyway, Lu Zheng has never gone in. I will see if I can go in and see if I have the opportunity in the future.
The famous Cave Heaven Paradise in the Central Plains of the Great Jing Dynasty is in the hands of various famous sects, and they are all powerful forces that have been passed down from ancient times to the present.
There is no ownerless paradise.
In other words, as long as it is discovered, the owner will definitely be found soon.
"So fellow Daoist Lu, please rest assured that Panshui Cave will not fight against Da Jingchao, but he will not take the initiative to make grudges with other practicing sects. You are a disciple of Baiyun Temple, and he will not mess with you again." Old Turtle said.
Lu Zheng thanked him, "That's it. Thank you fellow Taoist Gui for clarifying my doubts."
"Master Lu, you're welcome!"
Liu Qingyan and others also listened to the gossip about Da Jingchao and Panshui Cave all the way, and their eyes lit up with relish.
As he spoke, the old turtle had already gone upstream and soon came to a shallow shoal.
Go ashore and lie down.
"Friend Lu, Doctor Liu, this is already the boundary of Junzhou on East Sichuan Road. Twenty miles to the north from here is the county seat of Yuejiang County in Junzhou."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Turtle, for escorting us all the way. It saved us at least five days." Lu Zheng cupped his hands and thanked him.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Lu. Doctor Liu is a benevolent doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded. I just walked a short distance, old turtle, so it doesn't matter."
After everyone got off the turtle's back, the old turtle took a few steps back, then retreated into the Yuejin River, sank and disappeared.
Du Yueyao, her maid Yu Lan and two guards looked towards the river, feeling that the journey was really eye-opening, like a dream.
"Twenty miles." Lu Zheng nodded, "But some are gone."
With a pinch of the seal in his hand, he slapped a magic spell on everyone, "Let's go!"
…
When I arrived at the county seat of Yuejiang County, I found that order had basically been restored in the county seat.
A few people found an inn to stay at. After learning that the plague was still raging in Sichuan East Road and that sporadic floods had not stopped, they decided to stay in the county town for one night before setting off tomorrow.
The next day, a few people bought some more supplies in the county town, and then left the city.
…
The mountain road is difficult to travel.
"No wonder Sichuan East Road is still in trouble even after two months, because it is already mountainous and watery, with skyrocketing rainfall and rock landslides. Isn't it very dangerous?"
Du Yueyao looked at a waterfall surging down the cliff on the side. The river that should be a mountain stream suddenly flowed out with the momentum of a rushing river.
"I heard that a doctor went to Wushi Village ten days ago, and then there was no news." Liu Qingyan said, "The road must have been cut off by the river."
"That should be the case." Lu Zheng said, "If so, I'm afraid Wushi Village has not contacted the outside world for ten days."
Lu Zheng stretched out his hand to support Du Yueyao and the others, and then he floated across the mountain stream.
Liu Qingyan and the girls from Wuxiuzhuang passed by without any help.
