The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 379

Once classified as a prisoner, he sinks his waist and spends his time away.It was the day when the emperor left the temple in a hurry, and the Jiaofang still played a farewell song, crying to Gong E.

——"Broken Time·Family and Country in the Past 40 Years" Li Yu

……

Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan approached the tiankeng, standing on the edge of the tiankeng overlooking the bottom of the valley.

The tiankeng is as big as two polo fields, surrounded by cliffs and clouds.The cliffs are steep, steep and majestic.

The ground at the bottom of the pit is flat, with green grass, green shrubs, beautiful forests, deep and beautiful, a winding path stretches, and the winding path leads to a courtyard, with blue bricks and green tiles, which looks like a temple.God's workmanship is uncanny, and human beings are so insignificant.

Several houses in the temple were destroyed by the tiankeng defenders just now, with broken walls and ruins.The temple fire has been extinguished, and there is still a little smoke.Outside the courtyard, dozens of ants-sized figures were busy, treating the wounded and repairing the house.

Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan put down the gondola in the wheel winch, took the gondola, and descended slowly.

Entering a huge cave head-on, the cave is hundreds of feet long, magnificent from ancient times, deep and spacious, like a giant hall of gods.

Inside the cave are jagged boulders, mottled cliffs, light and shadow leaking in, flickering, and a pearl waterfall falls straight down from the top of the cave, like a real dragon going straight up to the blue sky.

There are holes in holes, as deep as a maze.The hanging basket rose and fell several times, and came to the bottom of the cave.

Bai Fu and the two jumped off the hanging basket, fell straight down along the stream and waterfall, walked out of the cave and looked back, the cave was like a giant stone bridge spanning between the tiankengs.

Looking up from under the bridge, the arch hole is high and wide, and the white sky is like a carp leaping over the dragon gate.The bridge body is green and vines twine.The cliff is towering and precipitous, and a mountain is clearly defined, just like a bridge.

Walk out of the cave and step into the bottom of the tiankeng.Standing at the bottom of the pit and looking up, the tiankeng looks like a huge patio, the sky is in the shape of a cross, and a bright moon hangs in the middle.Surrounded by cliffs, there are thousands of cliffs standing on the walls.The blue-white rock walls are cut like knives and axes, with scattered shrubs, making it difficult for apes to climb.It was like a natural prison.

I saw a courtyard from a distance, which should be the temple seen on the top of the mountain.

The two of Bai Li walked along the path. The wild vines and flowers along the roadside bloomed one after another, and the forest and bamboo were overgrown with green colors.Green grass, swaying bamboos, gurgling brooks, meandering, quietly flowing through the jagged and uneven rocks, and quietly passing through the clusters of green clumps.The green trees are lush and the cool breeze blows, as if you are in a paradise.

When approaching the courtyard, outside the courtyard, there were dozens of elderly court ladies and eunuchs running around.The leader is a burly figure, dressed as a Buddhist monk.This person has white brows and drooping shoulders, a kind complexion, bulging temples, a majestic mountain, and a calm breath. At first glance, he is one of the few masters in the world.

Seeing Bai Fu and Bai Fu, the eminent monk Jishou saluted, although Bai Fu and Bai Fu felt the difference, they hurriedly returned the salute.

With a "squeak", the courtyard door opened, and an old lady in yellow clothes led several court ladies out of the courtyard.

"Your Majesty!" Upon seeing the old woman, the court ladies and eunuchs outside the courtyard knelt down one after another.

The old woman was in her sixties, her hair was high, and her face was slightly powdered. Although she was dressed in plain and coarse cloth and had no hairpins on her body, her gestures and gestures had the aura of dominating the world.

Although Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan didn't know who this old woman was, they were captured by this aura, and they bowed their hands in admiration.

Seeing Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan, the old woman smiled, walked up and down, nodded and said: "You are here!"

Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan were taken aback for a moment, wondering why the old woman said such a thing.

"Come into the house and talk to me." The old woman's voice was soft but irresistible. Bai Fu and Bai Fu looked at each other and followed the old woman into the courtyard.

The interior of the house is elegant and sandalwood is fragrant. The three of them sat down, and the maids poured three cups of Bitan Snow, and the fragrance of tea overflowed.

The old woman looked at the two of Bai Li, peaceful and serene: "In the lair of snakes and scorpions, within a hundred steps, there must be orchids. In troubled times and catastrophes, when the Eight Tripods appear, there must be successors. After the sword demon Dugusu, I finally waited for you."

Bai Fu didn't know how to reply, he cupped his hands and said, "Dare to ask senior, what do you mean by this?"

The old woman smiled and said: "Don't worry, let me ask you, do you have Kan Ding and Xun Ding true energy?"

Bai Fu was taken aback for a moment, and said, "It's exactly as senior said, but how do you know?"

The old woman smiled and said, "Because I also have Jiuding Zhenqi in me, I can sense yours. I wonder how you two got your Zhenqi?"

Seeing the kindness of the old woman's face, Bai Fu felt a sense of closeness in his heart, and narrated the fate of the two of them.

After hearing this, the old woman remained silent for a while, looked up to the sky and sighed: "Heaven's heart is unpredictable, and it is also a great responsibility for the people."

The old woman replied to Bai: "I have read all the ancient and modern history books, and you are the No. 1 one who can guide the power of the Eight Tripods and Pangu since the ages, without the need for the Ninth Tripod.".

"I?" Bai Fu blurted out.

"Yes, I am Wu Zhao!"

As soon as the old woman said this, her eyes shone brightly, looking down on the world.Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan were shocked, and they bowed and fell to the ground.

"Get up, get up, it's all in the past." Seeing this, the old woman quickly helped the two of them up, and their expressions returned to their original state.

"Your Majesty, aren't you?..." Bai Fu was puzzled.

"Hehe, how much of the history that the people know is true?" The old woman smiled helplessly: "On the 22nd day of the first lunar month of the first year of Shenlong, Zhang Jianzhi, Cui Xuanwei and other five ministers took advantage of me to overcome the catastrophe, and temporarily lost all their martial arts. At that time, he encouraged my son Li Xian to launch the Shenlong coup to overthrow the Wu Zhou regime.

They imprisoned me in Lihentian Prison and urged Xian'er to kill me, but after all, Xian'er was born to me, and his nature was weak, so he couldn't bear to kill me.

Later, Dugusu rescued me from Lihentian, Wu Sansi rose strongly, and confronted Zhang Jianzhi, Cui Xuanwei and other five ministers.

At this time, my body has not yet recovered, and the Li and Wu families made an oath to each other to let me return to my hometown Lizhou and live out my life in peace.And I handed over the imperial power and returned the government to Li Tangzong Temple.Externally, they unanimously declared that I died and died.

All my life, I am willing to be kind and vengeful, and kill decisively, but I also kill too much, so I don't accumulate good fortune.In my later years, I often reflect on what I have done in my life. What are the merits and demerits?How will future generations evaluate my only female emperor?

It's so good, mother and son don't have to turn their eyes against each other.

Xian'er, Dan'er, and Taiping are fighting to the death for the throne. I am far away in Lizhou, out of sight and out of mind.

……

Not long after, Prince Xian'er Li Chongjun launched a coup, killed Wu Sansi, and was killed. A few years later, Xian'er died suddenly. Longji launched a coup d'etat in Tang Long, killed Queen Wei's party, and supported Dan'er to ascend the throne; later, when Li Longji ascended the throne, Taiping fought with Li Longji's aunt and nephew, and Taiping hanged himself...

After Li Longji consolidated his power, he was worried about me interfering in politics, so he exiled me here.Only because I fear that my skill has gradually recovered, Dugusu is watching Huashan like a tiger, like a light on his back, so he dare not act rashly.

Li Longji underestimated me too much. If I want to seize his throne, I just need to return to Luoyang, raise my arms and push him out of the dragon chair.

When people are old, their hearts are not so big.Just like when I was young, I liked to eat meaty meat, but when I was old, I loved vegetables and porridge the most.

The night after Taiping left, I stayed up all night.I can only say that this is the sorrow of being born in the emperor's family, and it is also the fate of the Li family. Taizong's former emperor Xuanwumen fought for the evil, and no one else can blame him.

In my later years, I practiced Buddhism diligently, tired of the secular life, worshiping Buddha with green lanterns, peaceful and joyful.

The supreme, profound and subtle dharma is difficult to encounter in hundreds of millions of kalpas; what I have seen and heard is accepted and upheld, and I am willing to understand the true meaning of the Tathagata. "

……

Bai Fu asked: "Since Your Majesty is far away from the temple, why did the Yongwanghui lead troops to besiege the Tiankeng?"

Wu Zhao sighed: "Where does the temple say that you can go away?! Li Longji is really smart. I guess I will survive another catastrophe in the past few days, so I want to take something from me."

Bai Fu asked curiously: "What is Heavenly Tribulation? Is it the loss of martial arts?"

Wu Zhao also asked curiously: "Why do you ask about Heavenly Tribulation? Li Longji is so inspiring, don't you care what treasure he wants?"

Bai Fu cupped his hands solemnly and said: "How dare we lowly people covet what belongs to His Majesty?"

Wu Zhao smiled, charming like a girl: "That's why I say God's will, some people can't get it after racking their brains, and some people can get it without any effort. This thing does not belong to Li Longji, it belongs to you!"

"Belongs to me?" Bai Fu grumbled.
