The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 831 Nine Palaces and Eight Arrays
It is shocking to see from a distance, and amazing to see it up close.

Until Pei Wende and Meiji, led by Ling Xiaozi, walked into this huge building complex little by little.

Only then did they realize that what they had just seen was just a drop in the bucket.

In this huge building complex covering an area of ​​more than one hundred miles, the interior can actually be subdivided into eight formations of heaven, earth, wind, cloud, dragon, tiger, bird, and snake.

And among these eight formations, each formation contains nine pagodas, sixteen main halls, fifty or twenty side halls, and statues of gods and Buddhas.

Each formation has laid out different formations according to different terrains, forming different environments.

Either in the swamp, or in the mountains, or in the desert, or in the countryside...

When you first enter it, you will be confused by its complex formation and changes, which is even more terrifying than breaking into a maze.

Because these formations imply killing methods, combined with those ruthless puppets, they can almost resist the encirclement and suppression of a hundred times more troops.

The most important thing is that these eight directions are not static, they can even consciously distinguish and target practitioners who break into it.

If a monster breaks into it, the pagoda of the Freedom Buddhist Family will be intimidating...

If orthodox practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism break into it, the stone statues of gods and Buddhas will naturally go out to block it...

Even if leftist practitioners who practice their own way come here, there are countless illusions, killing formations, and celestial phenomena waiting here, and there is always one that suits them.

[If you didn't know it in advance, who would dare to believe that this would be the real 'Qin Tianjian'? 】

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Pei Wende, who finally entered the real core of the building complex, thought to himself.

However, Pei Wende didn't think too much about this issue, because they had already broken through the eight outer formations and arrived at the real core of the building complex.

This is a piece of land that covers no more than ten kilometers, but the various buildings present an extremely regular and circular structure.

And in the center of this circle, the nine-story exquisite pagoda that can be seen from a long distance stands tall, which is particularly eye-catching.

Besides, he didn't know if it was Pei Wende's illusion. He felt an inexplicable sense of peeping in his heart since he stepped into this circular circle.

Different from the "censorship" snooping of Tongtianjing, this kind of snooping is more secretive.

If it wasn't for Pei Wende's confidence in his intuition, he wouldn't have been able to detect this vague prying.

......................................................................................................

"It's here! Those books in the tower are the 'Qin Astronomical Books'."

When the three of them walked to the door of the pagoda step by step, Ling Xiaozi stopped suddenly, and then pointed to the nine-story exquisite pagoda in front of him and said.

"Those are all 'Qin Astronomical Documents'?"

Eyes widened in surprise, Pei Wende almost rolled his eyes as he looked at the almost innumerable books and bamboo slips in the pagoda.

Because with just one glance, Pei Wende was sure that there were so many books, even if he could read ten lines at a glance, he wouldn't be able to read them all if he didn't stay in this attic for a year or two.

This alone is only the first floor of the nine-story exquisite pagoda.

If the remaining [-]% were the same number of books, Wen Wende felt that it would be impossible to find the clues he wanted without spending the last ten or eight years.

"That's natural. You can find all the information that has written records here."

When he said this, Ling Xiaozi's voice suddenly paused.

"Of course, if you can tell me what you're looking for, maybe I can help you find it."

Having said that, even Meiji, who is not interested in Qin Tianwen, can hear the clues from Ling Xiaozi's words.

"In your Qintianjian, is there something similar to a directory or an index?"

Although Mei Ji didn't follow Huiji to browse Qin Tianwen's documents a few times ago, she remembered that it didn't take long for the other party to find the information she wanted.

"The number of books here is increasing every day, and the content of the collection is also changing all the time. How can there be something like an index?"

Smiling disdainfully, Ling Xiaozi showed a disdainful attitude towards Mei Ji's ignorance.

"But without an index, it doesn't mean that there is no way to quickly search for information."

"On each floor of this pagoda, there are more than a dozen 'shadows' of predecessors who have long passed away. They are constantly flipping through the various books inside, recording the changes in the content and number of books."

"So as long as you tell me what you're looking for, I can let them quickly help you find what you're looking for."

Hearing what Ling Xiaozi said, Pei Wende noticed that there were actually many dark shadows inside the Linglong Pagoda.

It's just that compared to the black dolls who are still active outside, the black shadows inside the pagoda stand almost motionless, as if the real shadows are hard to detect.

[Is this an ancient version of the 'human flesh search engine'? 】

Rolling his eyes calmly, Pei Wende didn't fully believe Ling Xiaozi's words.

After all, the opponent's non-cooperative attitude was very obvious from the very beginning.

If it weren't for Huiji's secret order in hand, it would be impossible for Ling Xiaozi, who was a disciple of the five-color Taoist, to lead him the way.

Therefore, Pei Wende maintained a highly skeptical attitude towards what the other party said, no matter whether it was true or not.

"I'm looking for children who were born near Chang'an in the last two years..."

"The gender should be a boy. He has a certain talent for cultivation. He may have joined a Taoist sect in Zhongnan Mountain by now."

After a brief silence, Pei Wende suddenly flipped his palms, and a large Prajna mask with a ferocious face and wide-eyed eyes appeared in his hands.

"If necessary, there is still a ray of vitality in this mask that can be used as a reference."

17 years ago, Guigushen was severely wounded and died by Xuanjue, but before she died, she also tore off a piece of the opponent's flesh and blood, and kept the vitality in it.

In addition, even after Guigu disappeared, the ray of resentment continued to communicate with the dragon veins in the earth, and collected a lot of information that was suspected to be related to Xuanjue.

The information is processed in the form of information without any sorting and screening.

It wasn't until Pei Wende refined the resentment of Guigushen into a Prajna ghost mask that he could actively screen the information by wearing the mask.

This was the last clue left by Gui Gushen to Pei Wende, a clue that would allow him to quickly find Xuanjue's reincarnation.

In fact, if he hadn't met Mei Ji, Pei Wende planned to use the wisp of vitality left in the mask to search the entire Chang'an after visiting Hui Ji, so as to find Xuan Jue's reincarnation.

However, after accidentally learning of the existence of the "Qin Tianwenshu", Pei Wende naturally chose this more convenient way to find it.

[Reincarnated soul boy? 】

After listening to Pei Wende's narration, it was Ling Xiaozi's turn to be silent this time.

As a Taoist practitioner, and also experienced the existence of the "soul boy case" more than 20 years ago, he certainly knew what Pei Wende was looking for.

Ling Xiaozi now only hopes that Pei Wende's actions are not setting off another "auspicious spirit boy incident" that will affect the whole Chang'an and cause the emperor to fall.

Because today's Tang Dynasty can no longer stand the toss of a second emperor who seeks longevity.
