After a while, everyone met at the Shibu altar in Zushan.
Kong Sang then told the story of his encounter with the countess.
Zhao Yuecheng looked at Kong Sang:
"So, you suspect that the countess stopped you because there is some secret here?"
Qian Pianpian looked at Hu Wenjun:
"Sister, you know the Shibu Altar better than we do."
"Is there any mystery here?"
Jiang Xuechan also echoed:
"Speaking of which, I also find it strange."
"After I inherited the position of the witch and Gu Master of the Ten Divisions of Yin, my teacher never told me what the central role of the altar is."
"I just know that there is such an ancestral mountain."
Cai Yuzhe responded:
"Witch and Gu Master, what do you mean..."
"Shouldn't something that has been passed down from generation to generation be useless?"
Hu Wenjun looked at Gong Xin.
After all, strictly speaking, among everyone present, the oldest one is Gong Xin, a widower who has been using secret techniques to survive since the Republic of China.
"Let me think about it carefully."
Gong Xin sat on the ground and took out a very ancient-looking book from his backpack.
"Over the years, in order to study the secret technique of prolonging the aging of the body, I have visited many religions."
"I even studied Taoism, Buddhism and other sectarian cultures."
"I remember...it seems that Zushan was mentioned somewhere."
"Let me look for it."
Gong Xin flipped through it quickly.
Soon, his eyes stopped on one of the slightly yellowed papers.
"Found it!"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they immediately walked to Gong Xin's side.
Gong Xin explained:
"This is what happened when I left Sichuan and traveled to Beijing."
"I visited the Tianchang Temple, the oldest temple in Beijing."
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
Everlasting view?
Why haven't you heard of it?
Gong Xin explained:
"Now it is no longer called Tianchang Temple, it is called Baiyun Temple."
"To be precise, the most primitive Tianchang Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty."
"During the Tianbao period, it was called Ziji Palace."
"Later, Wang Chuyi, one of the Seven Sons of Quanzhen, also came here to visit. After it was destroyed and rebuilt, it was also called Taiji Palace."
"Later, during the Yuan Dynasty, Qiu Chuji entered this place and rebuilt it, and then it was called Baiyun Temple."
"In the Qing Dynasty, Baiyun Temple became a holy place for the Longmen Sect of Taoism."
"In the end, it has been passed down to this day."
"The reason why I visited in the first place was because I heard that Baiyun Temple has mastered a method to make oneself immortal or others immortal by changing the internal and external luck."
However, after Gong Xin explained, everyone became more and more confused.
"Wait a minute." Yu Cang couldn't help but said: "After saying so much, it can only prove that there may be something mysterious in Baiyun Temple."
"However, Baiyun Temple is located at the west gate of Shangjing, so it has nothing to do with this place."
Gong Xin shook his head and pointed to the simplified map on his notebook.
"I did not draw this map myself."
"But at the beginning, after I visited the Taoist priests at Baiyun Temple, I asked them to draw it on my manuscript."
"Take a closer look."
Kong Sang squinted his eyes slightly, followed the position of Baiyun Temple, and observed the place names marked along the route map.
Until he saw the end point, Kong Sang's eyebrows moved.
"I see!"
"On this map, the starting point is Baiyun Temple, and the end point... is actually near our ancestral mountain!"
Everyone immediately followed the route to carefully investigate and found that it was exactly like this!
Gong Xin explained:
"Because the original Tianchangguan was completely destroyed a long time ago."
"But because many classics were rescued from Tianchang Temple at that time, the predecessor of Baiyun Temple came into being."
Kong Sang couldn’t help but said:
"What happened next?"
Gong Xin shook his head:
"The place I can take you to now is the so-called ruins of Tianchangguan."
"Actually... it's very close to here. It should be possible to get there in fifteen minutes."
"But I came here to investigate before and found nothing."
For a moment, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Naturally, they would not doubt Gong Xin's words.
After all, Gong Xin spared no effort in order to obtain the longevity technique.
But the question is... could this be a coincidence?
After all, the birth of the Ten Divisions of Zouyin was after the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the heretics were disbanded, and a new representative organization was needed.
The establishment of Tianchangguan happened to be during the Tianbao period.
There is only a few years between the two.
Finally, after everyone discussed it, they decided to split up.
Qian Pianpian, Yu Cang, Cai Yuzhe, Wang Lei, and Jiang Xuechan immediately left Zushan and went to Baiyun Temple to inquire in detail.
Kong Sang, Zhao Yuecheng, Gong Xin, Zhao Xiaocheng, and Hu Wenjun continued to the ruins of Tianchangguan.
…
Following Gong Xin's guidance, Kong Sang also understood how similar the two were.
Almost as soon as we left the altar of the ten divisions of the yin and came to the back of Zushan, we were almost there.
Soon, the five people came to a relatively flat mountain.
What comes into view is a small cave that is not very big. Looking around, there is nothing mysterious except vegetation.
"This is it." Gong Xin pointed to the location of the cave: "I went in before, and there was nothing in it."
However, having said that, now that I'm here, I still have to go in and explore it again.
Zhao Yuecheng walked in the front as usual.
The cave is indeed not big, and for a big man like Zhao Yuecheng, it is even difficult to maneuver.
Moreover, after barely walking a few steps, we had reached the bottom of the cave.
Gong Xin said helplessly:
"I asked the Taoist priest at that time."
"The other party said that this cave was originally a secret place in Tianchang Temple."
"But he doesn't know what the secret is."
"I checked carefully and found nothing, so..."
"Um?"
"Kongsang, what's wrong with you?"
"Kong Sang?"
But he saw Kong Sang standing there motionless.
suddenly:
"Ahhhhhh!"
Just like the previous two attacks, Kong Sang squatted on the ground covering his head in pain.
"Kong-san!"
"Bai Daxian!"
Zhao Xiaocheng summoned Bai Daxian.
The latter immediately came to Kong Sang's side, and just as he was about to apply the needle, he saw a layer of golden light suddenly igniting around Kong Sang's body.
"Bang!"
Bai Daxian was caught off guard and was directly shocked by the golden light, hitting the stone wall.
"Bai Daxian!"
"Xiao Cheng, I'm fine." Bai Daxian rubbed his waist: "This golden light doesn't mean to hurt me. It should be a simple body protection mechanism."
"Body protection?" Everyone looked at Kong Sang who was squatting on the ground in confusion, and for a moment they had no idea.
Bai Daxian nodded, with a solemn look in his eyes: "Not bad!"
"Furthermore, if my judgment is correct, this golden light should be the condensation of his own destiny and luck."
As a Feng Shui master, Hu Wenjun was stunned and subconsciously objected:
"How is this possible?"
"Are you an immortal or a white immortal who mainly helps the world by hanging pots? Your destiny can be said to be the best among many immortals!"
"Kong Sang's fate, if he can't even get close to you, then... at least it's the destiny of the emperor!"
Bai Daxian said:
"Since Kong Sang was in the Ming Dynasty, he could serve as a man of destiny and assist Zhu Di in the battle of Jingnan."
"It's not surprising that he has imperial luck in his destiny."
"And...at that moment just now, I still felt the dragon's veins in his body."
"That should be Japan's dragon vein energy."
"But when a dragon vein that does not belong to one's own country enters a human body, it should not be so perfectly integrated in a short period of time."
"The fact that it can be combined with one's own destiny without any flaw can only show that its original destiny is so noble that even the dragon veins cannot suppress it!"
…
At the same time, Kong Sang, who was troubled by a headache, heard a strange voice in his ears.
"Do you really want to put it here?"
"There's nothing we can do about it."
"How can there be nothing you can do? You are the leader of the Yin Yang family."
"Now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and declining, the scripture in my hand was cultivated in my previous life and is very important! Moreover, many of the methods are too dangerous and cannot be noticed by anyone under any circumstances."
"But...if you put it here...I have calculated that Tianchangguan's energy will not last that long."
"Don't worry, I will arrange all this, Dong Ming. In addition...it's up to you to select a new representative of the heresy."
"There will be no problem with this matter. Once I have selected the representatives and built the altar, you can start work on the Tianchang Temple at the same time. By then, when disaster strikes, you and I can plan the next game in advance!"
In an instant, Kong Sang came to his senses and the headache gradually disappeared.
"Kong Sang?" Zhao Yuecheng carefully helped Kong Sang up.
Kong Sang leaned against the mountain wall, breathing heavily.
He thought about the conversation just now.
The voice is very familiar.
Kong Sang recognized it clearly.
One is myself as the eunuch eunuch and leader of the Yin Yang family during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.
The other one should be Dong Ming, the convener of the Ten Yin Divisions.
Moreover, through this conversation, Kongsang also understood something.
Strictly speaking, the ten divisions of Zouyin were not convened after the Anshi Rebellion.
But after Dong Ming had already made the selection, he just waited for the Anshi Rebellion to end and let it come to the surface.
Therefore, the altar of the ten tribes of Yin was not built during the Anshi Rebellion, but during the Tianbao period.
In this way, it can be concluded that the construction on the left and right of Tianchangguan is not accidental!
Even in my memory, I had predicted that Tianchangguan would not survive for a long time, but I still kept the so-called cultivation of previous lives here.
What could that be?
Suddenly, Kong Sang was stunned!
How could I have overlooked something!
When I entered the world of bone china, I recalled very clearly that I had a grudge against Huadao Lou in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
The case of the Ten Immortality Totems can also prove his identity in the late Eastern Han Dynasty - a Taoist from Nanhua!
Moreover, at that time, I was called by Huadaolou - the master of Zhang Jiao of Taiping Road!
Could it be...
Kong Sang looked at everyone:
"Which of you knows anything about Taiping Dao?!"
Everyone looked at each other.
Hu Wenjun said:
"I know a little bit about it."
"In the process of Taoism evolving from the original Huang-Lao sect, it became a Taoist sect that flourished in North China."
"Moreover, the birth of Taipingdao was also based on the Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty."
"Why do you suddenly ask this?"
Kong Sang said again:
"Taipingdao...is there any very important unique book?"
Hu Wenjun seemed to have guessed something:
"You mean...the treasure of the Taiping Road - the "Taiping Sutra"?!"
"But that's not right. The Taiping Sutra has not been lost. It is now the Taiping Department among the three caves and four auxiliaries."
Kong Sang shook his head and looked towards the cave:
"Perhaps...the real "Taiping Jing" is buried here!"
"Or maybe... the countess was instructed by the inner ghost to block my core purpose, which is the original "Taiping Jing"!"
Zhao Yuecheng couldn't help but said:
"Why are you so sure?"
Kong Sang’s expression was complicated:
"Because...the "Taiping Sutra" was placed in Tianchangguan, and the decision was made to build Tianchangguan and the Zuoyin Shibu Altar together..."
"It's me during the Tang Dynasty!"
[Author's digression]: Little popular science:
The three caves and four auxiliaries in this article refer to the Taoist and Tibetan system.
Three Dongs refer to the "Dong Shen" "Three Emperors Sutra", "Dong Xuan" "Ling Bao Sutra", and "Dong Zhen" "Shang Qing Jing". It is determined that it is the core position of Taoism and cannot be changed.
The four auxiliaries are "Taiping", "Taiqing", "Taixuan" and "Zhengyi".
"Tai Qing" assists "Dong Shen", "Taiping" assists "Dong Xuan", "Tai Xuan" assists "Dong Zhen", and "Zheng Yi" serves as the link.
Three holes and four auxiliaries are also called seven parts in total.
In short, the three holes belong to "Jing", and the four supplements are to fill in the gaps and explain the three holes.
It can be understood that all our knowledge of Taoism, such as scriptures, cultivation methods, talismans, alchemy, summoning ghosts and gods, etc., are included in the three holes and four auxiliaries.
