Chapter 120 The dispute between Confucianism and Taoism, a Taoist robe, a Taoist
…
The seventh floor of the Book Mountain.
Jiang Chenshui stood in the array of flowers.
At the center of the formation, Hua Qingshui had her eyes closed tightly and had fallen into a drowsy state.
"If you can't break the formation, it's the same thing if you defeat the person who set it up." Jiang Chenshui looked at the white mist that had opened a hole on the top of the mountain.
He could see two figures standing on the white mist.
So, he walked forward quickly and came to the boy Asheng who was guarding the eighth floor.
Ah Sheng stood in front of him with his hands on his hips.
"The tea rain has started, and by coincidence, I also got a cup of tea." Jiang Chenshui took out a wooden cup, which was filled with tea mixed with Confucius wine.
Ah Sheng's eyes widened: "That doesn't count, this is the tea made by Master!"
"But when Jiang Yu'er went up, it was the Master who made tea, wasn't it?" After Jiang Chenshui finished speaking, he continued: "Since we have tea, we can climb to the top of the Book Mountain!"
Ah Sheng wanted to say more.
Jiang Chenshui had already bypassed him and walked directly up.
He also walked through the white mist lingering on the top of the mountain, and the fragrance of tea was still wafting around him.
Soon, he reached the top of the mountain.
He also saw everything in Xianyang City, including the ancient city walls.
However, he only glanced at it before he pulled out the long sword on the ground and walked to the master: "Taoist Jiang Chenshui has met the master!"
…
The Master sat down again.
And, he motioned for Jiang Chaoge to sit next to him.
Jiang Chaoge naturally would not refuse.
Then, the Master said: "Since we are here for assessment, we should follow the rules of Jixia Academy."
"Of course." Jiang Chenshui nodded respectfully and replied, "Master, please come up with a question."
"Well, what did you come to get?" Master asked directly.
Jiang Chenshui raised the corner of his mouth and was not surprised: "A copy of Taoist Canon and a Taoist robe!"
"Either take the Taoist robe or the Taoist Canon. Do you want to take both? I'm afraid you are a little greedy." The Master made another cup of tea.
"It's a Taoist thing, why are you greedy? What's more, I have a sword here!" Jiang Chenshui showed the sword in his hand: "The sword of Emperor Qin Wu!"
Emperor Qin Wu?!
Jiang Chaoge looked at the sword in Jiang Chen's hand.
The blade of the sword is transparent and white, like a flying giant. However, there is a "thunder and lightning" like mark on the blade. I wonder if it was there originally or was it left in the battle?
Looking at the hilt again, it is dark purple.
There is also a golden dragon carved on it with five claws.
Able to carve a five-clawed golden dragon...it is indeed the sword of the emperor!
As for who Emperor Qin Wu is...
Jiang Chaoge naturally knew that Emperor Qin Wu was the posthumous title given to the son-in-law Ying of the Second Qin Dynasty, and it was said that the son-in-law Ying gave it to him before his death.
Why did the sword that could win half the son fall into the Taoist sect?
He looked at his master.
The Master did not answer his question and was still talking to Jiang Chenshui: "So, you want to use the Emperor Wu Sword in exchange for two things?"
"Yes!" Jiang Chenshui said sincerely.
"A sword alone is not enough." The Master shook his head.
"Then if you add me, it should be enough." Jiang Chenshui said seriously.
"Including you? Well... Then tell me again, how do you want to stop me?" The master laughed.
"Master is the number one in this world, so naturally he will not fight against a junior like me." Jiang Chenshui replied respectfully: "So, as long as this junior has this Emperor Wu Sword in his hand, Master will not be able to leave the top of the mountain of books.
After all, this is where the national destiny of the Qin Dynasty lies, Master, you don’t want the national destiny of the Qin Dynasty to be damaged, right?”
"Whoosh!"
The master's hand moved.
The Emperor Wu Sword flew out of Jiang Chenshui's hand and landed on the square table.
"What now? Without the Emperor Wu Sword, how do you want to stop me?" Master asked again.
"Haha." Jiang Chenshui suddenly laughed: "Since Master has taken this Martial Emperor Sword, my Taoist sect has a reason to re-enter Jixia Academy. On behalf of the masters of the Taoist sect, I will thank Master!"
"No need to thank you, let's just... take a look." The Master nodded.
"Okay." Jiang Chenshui sat down.
…
It can be said that the conversation between the two fell into Jiang Chaoge's ears word for word.
He understood every word.
However, when these words were put together, he only understood half of them.
"First of all, my previous guess should be correct. This special recruitment ceremony is actually a trap set by the Master, and Jiang Chenshui came here not really wanting to enter Jixia Academy."
"Did Jiang Chenshui come to get something? A Taoist robe and a Taoist robe? The Taoist robe should be an ancient Taoist borrowing. This is understandable, but a Taoist robe...whose Taoist robe is it?"
Whose Taoist robe is worth exchanging for a Emperor Wu Sword?
Moreover, according to Jiang Chenshui, this sword seems to be able to threaten the national destiny of Qin Dynasty, making the master afraid to leave the top of Shushan.
Jiang Chaoge didn't understand this.
And what the Master said at the end...see?
What to see?
Just as he was thinking, he saw five figures appearing in the white mist.
These five figures were all wearing black Taoist robes. They appeared in the white mist, but they were not in the white mist, but in Jixia Academy.
"So, the white mist is like a 'mirror' monitoring Xianyang City. Naturally, you can also see what is happening in the entire Jixia Academy."
Jiang Chaoge probably understood what the phrase 'take a look' meant.
As for who these five figures are.
In fact, it's easy to guess, because all five of them are wearing black Taoist robes.
Moreover, he knew one of them.
Feng Lingzi!
"Feng Lingzi, the old prostitute, has come to Jixia Academy? And now the master is on the mountain of books. It seems that... he has no intention of leaving."
"So, these five people... want to use Jiang Chenshui to hold the master back, and then rob him openly in Jixia Academy, right?"
But here, there is another problem.
With Master's wisdom, he had obviously guessed all this.
However, he still took over the Emperor Wu Sword... and gave the Taoist sect a chance to enter Jixia Academy in an open and honest manner?
Why is this?
Jiang Chaoge now has two options.
1. Watch with cold eyes. (It has nothing to do with it, just hang it up high)
Second, join the war. (Master cannot take action against Jiang Chenshui, but I can?)
…
On the observation deck.
The three great scholars all looked at the mountain gate of Jixia Academy at the same time.
Because there were five Taoist priests in Xuanyi standing there.
"The Seven Sons of Xuanmen!"
"I kind of understand." Gu Miaobi's eyes lit up: "Jiang Chen's purpose on the top of Shushan Mountain should be to use the sword that carries the national destiny to hold back the master and create opportunities for the seven sons of Xuanmen."
"Can a sword hold the Master back?" Lin Quping was a little unbelievable.
"Maybe the sword can't." Fang Xiaojing said: "But what if Jiang Chenshui represents the Taoist sect? Moreover, we all know that Jiang Chenshui is the future of the Taoist sect!"
"I understand." Lin Quping nodded: "The Taoist sect bets their 'future' in front of the Master, and uses this as a bet to compete with my Confucian family again. In this case, it's time for us three old guys to appear. ."
"Three versus five? It's quite exciting?"
"It's exciting, but I'm afraid it won't be guaranteed in the evening."
"Be careful!"
The three great scholars looked at each other and disappeared from the viewing platform almost at the same time.
…
On the way to the library.
A Taoist priest in Xuanyi was walking as if there was no one around.
There was a mahogany sword stuck diagonally on his back, and a whisk in his hand.
His gray beard fluttered, giving him an air of immortality.
Then, an old man wearing a Confucian shirt walked out from under a tree and stopped in front of him.
"Taoist priest, what's your surname?" the old man said.
"I am a poor Taoist," the Taoist replied.
"Gu Miaobi, since the Taoist priest has come to Jixia Academy, do you need me to show you the way?"
"Okay, Brother Miaobi, please give me some advice!"
"Buzz!"
The surrounding scene changes instantly.
The road that was originally paved with stones has turned into a peach blossom forest.
It is late autumn now, but the peach blossoms are blooming very brightly. The pink peach blossoms are all over the branches, and you can still hear the gurgling sound of water.
"What a spring scene in the peach garden!" Tu Lingzi smiled and flicked the whisk in his hand: "Unfortunately, I don't like peach blossoms, I only like to eat peaches."
"Crack!"
While whisking the dust.
The strong wind blew, the peach trees swayed, and the peach blossoms were blown off.
Gu Miaobi's face became a little ugly: "Tu Lingzi doesn't use soil... but uses wind? Are all the people in your Taoist sect so ignorant of martial ethics?"
"Hey, it's just a name. Brother Miaobi, there's no need to care about it, right?" Tu Lingzi chuckled.
Gu Miaoxiao said no more.
A wolf hair brush appeared in his hand, and he drew again into the void.
The peach blossoms that originally covered the ground have disappeared.
On the peach trees, there are crystal clear, bright and juicy peaches.
Another seven fairies wearing seven-color long skirts walked out of the peach grove. Each of them carried a bamboo basket in their hands, which was filled with freshly picked peaches, as red as jade.
Tu Lingzi's face darkened: "Brother Miaobi, why do you do this? I am a Taoist!"
"Since Taoist Master likes to eat peaches, I will treat Taoist Master to eat peaches!" Gu Miaobi moved the brush in his hand again: "Besides, I don't care, so why should Taoist Master care?"
The seven fairies came to Tu Lingzi's side.
"Taoist Priest, do you want to eat peaches? They are so fresh and sweet!"
"Keke, Taoist Master, eat me?"
"Taoist Priest..."
Tu Lingzi was pulled by the seven fairies and did not dare to neglect any more. He immediately recited the mantra in his mouth: "The heart is as clear as ice, and the sky is not alarmed when it falls. Everything is still stable, and the spirit is calm and peaceful. The void is peaceful and complete.
Nothing…”
…
On the way to Luojian Lake.
Lin Quping was sitting on a piece of bluestone with a guqin placed on it.
And not far in front of him.
A fat Taoist priest in Xuanyi had already stood still.
The Taoist's body looks very round, with a round face, a round belly, and his eyes are narrowed into a thin slit.
He held a knife in his hand. It was made of brass and had an oval front end. There were bronze coins hanging on it, making a jingling sound.
"The poor Taoist just came to see the beautiful scenery of Luojian Lake. I don't know why he blocked it?" the fat Taoist said with a smile.
"Stop talking nonsense, I, Lin Quping, have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Oh... Pindao Huo Lingzi."
"Get out of Jixia!"
"no!"
"Then don't blame the sound of my piano for killing me!"
"Let's talk about it if we can take it away?"
"snort!"
Lin Quping said no more.
He directly touched the guqin with his fingers.
The murderous piano sound sounded, making people feel like they were in a battlefield of yellow sand. The ground made a clicking sound, and after a while, there were cracks.
There are Yin soldiers surrounding Huo Lingzi.
The quantity exceeds one hundred!
Huo Lingzi tried his best to widen his narrowed eyes: "Are you so fierce when you come up? Pindao, please tell me now that I went the wrong way. Can I change someone?"
"jingle!"
The piano sounds again.
Hundreds of Yin soldiers rushed towards Huo Lingzi.
Huo Lingzi immediately moved the yellow knife in his hand to his chest, and a clanging sound came from the yellow knife, like a stream of quality sword energy, criss-crossing in the sound of the piano.
All the Yin soldiers who rushed over were shaken by the sound and stood on the spot.
So Huo Lingzi became angry again.
He killed Lin Quping who was sitting on the bluestone: "Lin Quping, right? Look at the knife!"
At this moment, a huge creature wearing silver armor suddenly emerged from the ground.
This is a tall figure that far exceeds the Yin soldiers, with green Yin fire in his eyes and two mountain-breaking axes in his hands.
"Ding!"
Axes and knives collide.
Huo Lingzi took three steps back.
The Yin soldiers who had been standing silently had come to their senses again and rushed towards them like a tide.
"Life is hard!" Huo Lingzi sighed.
…
On the way through the main hall of Jixia Academy.
Two Taoists in Xuanyi, a man and a woman, were walking side by side.
The male Taoist has an outstanding appearance, holding a ruler in his hand. The ruler is carved with various patterns, including the sun and the moon, the twenty-eight constellations, the Big Dipper, the Southern Dipper, and the four North Pole stars.
The holy 'canopy mantra'.
The female Taoist was holding a token with a round upper part and a lower part. The material looked like it was made of wood, but it had a metallic luster.
while walking.
The two of them stopped together.
Because, at the entrance of the main hall, an old man wearing a blue robe and a Confucian shirt was standing not far away with his hands folded.
"Fang Xiaojing, I'm disturbing you two." Fang Xiaojing turned around and looked at the two of them.
The male Taoist nodded: "Mu Lingzi."
The female Taoist held the token in front of her chest: "Wu Lingzi."
"What is the purpose of the two of you coming here? Can you tell me?" Fang Xiaojing asked again.
"Take two things." Mu Ling replied.
"Take what?"
"A copy of "Tao Zang" and a Taoist robe."
"Humph, daydreaming!"
"I've long heard that Fang Daru's literary talents are astonishing. Mu Lingzi is lucky enough to see him today. Please give me a lesson!" Mu Lingzi took two steps forward.
Wu Lingzi stood on the spot.
The corner of Fang Xiaojing's mouth moved, and he tapped his finger gently in front of his face: "The north wind is cool, the wind and snow are foggy, they are kind to me, let's go hand in hand!"
The voice fell.
The north wind howled, and the land was covered with wind and snow.
Fang Xiaojing stood in it, pinched the air, and a cloud of white mist appeared in the air. Dozens of crystal clear ice swords had condensed into it.
"Senior brother, be careful." Wu Lingzi reminded.
"It doesn't matter, let's see what senior brother can do!" Mu Lingzi nodded, and with a wave of the ruler in his hand, star patterns appeared around him, surrounding him in all directions.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Ice swords came like rain.
Things were moving around Mu Lingzi.
Each star is like substance, resisting the rain of swords.
"Ding ding!"
"Boom boom!"
The sound kept ringing.
The north wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the snow on the ground is getting higher and higher, almost covering Mu Lingzi.
Mu Lingzi's face gradually turned a little livid, and he waved the ruler in his hand again, taking a step forward...
"Whoosh!"
He flew out of the snowy land.
The stars on his body twinkled, as if he was bathed in starlight.
But the moment he flew out of the snow.
Fang Xiaojing's mouth came out with a voice again: "The mountains stand tall and the scenery stops. Even though I can't reach them, my heart longs for them!"
Mu Lingzi's figure immediately stagnated.
Immediately, an invisible force slammed into his chest.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out from Mu Lingzi's mouth.
The figure retreated sharply.
Wu Lingzi immediately waved the token and took down Mu Lingzi's body.
"Ahem, the great Confucian Fang Xiao Jing is indeed worthy of his reputation!" Mu Lingzi coughed twice before he could stand still.
"Senior Brother Fenglingzi has specifically told you that you must never underestimate Fang Xiaojing." Wu Lingzi sighed: "It seems that we can only fight with two against one."
"Well, I underestimated the enemy." Mu Lingzi nodded.
So, Wu Lingzi stood in front of Mu Lingzi, waved the token in his hand again, and issued a command: "Wind, rain, thunder and lightning, listen to my call!"
"This is... the Five Thunder Order?! You even brought this thing?" Fang Xiaojing's face suddenly changed.
"Boom!"
It was windy and rainy, with lightning and thunder.
Wu Lingzi stood in the wind and thunder, with a divine radiance on her face. Her Taoist robes were floating gently, and the hairpin on her head lit up with purple light.
"boom!"
A bolt of lightning struck down violently.
Fang Xiaojing's face suddenly turned black, and his hair exploded.
At this moment, Mu Lingzi flew forward fiercely, and the ruler in his hand turned into a huge shadow, like a galaxy falling from the sky.
"Fang Xiaojing, you can't stop the two of us!"
"Huh! If you can't stop it, you have to stop it!"
…
The top of the mountain of books.
Jiang Chaoge watched the battle in Jixia Academy.
"Three great scholars, fighting against the fourth of the seven disciples of Xuanmen! This is the real power of this world, right? It's so strong. If I weren't immune to both physical and mental immunity, I would never be able to defeat him."
Of course, even if he is immune, he still cannot be beaten... he can only be beaten.
However, the focus now is...
Although the three great scholars stopped Tu Lingzi, Huo Lingzi, Mu Lingzi and Wu Lingzi.
But he didn't stop Fenglingzi.
Fenglingzi had already arrived in front of a building at this time.
The building stood halfway up the mountain. It was a very old-looking attic with a wooden sign hanging on it. There were four big characters written on the wooden sign.
A hundred schools of thought contend!
"Could it be that that is where hundreds of schools of thought teach?"
Jiang Chaoge looked at the Master.
Master's eyes seemed to also fall on Feng Lingzi, but he didn't seem to have any intention of stopping her.
So, Jiang Chaoge took another look at Jiang Chenshui.
