Mysterious Martial Arts: The Record of the Swordsman

Chapter 94
The two avoided the dead body and the white snail, retreated to a safe place, and each fell silent.

The giant snails on the mountain road have been petrified for a long time, and the age has long been unverifiable. Just as Wuyi Mountain was once a corner of the seabed, it has evolved countless times in the vicissitudes of life, which seems to be a matter of course.

Not only that, each dynasty in Chinese history has more or less records of fossils. In the famous pre-Qin ancient book "Shan Hai Jing", there is a description of "stone fish", that is, fish fossils.Shen Kuo in the Song Dynasty also had a correct understanding of the origin of snail fossils and Du Wan's fish fossils.

In particular, during the Qiliang period of the Southern Dynasties, Master Tao Hongjing of the Shangqing School also conducted special research and descriptions on amber medieval insects.

Thinking of this, the jade worm pebble in his hand and the rough suspected fossil in front of him appeared at the same time, but it brought a layer of psychedelic color to these ordinary things.

"I suspect that these two jade pebbles are what Luo Chunyi got from Tao Hongjing's tomb."

Yuan Huazi said slowly, looking at Jiang Wen with an unnatural expression.

Jiang Wen nodded in agreement. It might be a coincidence that these things appeared alone, but as the influence of human factors increased, the problems gradually became clearer.

For example... Who wants to go up the mountain?

Touched by a hint of enlightenment, Jiang Wen's expression was a little strange, as if he was holding back something and pretending to speak calmly.

"My lord, I have lived in Huixian Temple for several years. Thanks to you, I have read all the collections in the temple. I am familiar with the anecdotes and anecdotes from the Wei and Jin Dynasties, but the books of all schools are all in one or the same. Hacking or tearing up the chapters related to the pre-Qin period... Can the real person teach me?"

The cold wind was blowing in the thick fog, Yuan Huazi seemed to be a little afraid of the cold, but the sweat was protruding from his forehead, and his face was flushed.

"What else? The old man knows nothing about it."

The expression of the old Taoist was even more secretive, and his wrinkled lips were tightly pressed, "You and my disciple have read all the classics of my sect, but neither of them is interested in medical skills, and never enters the alchemy room to read. I know you have a strange burden. He is a master of medicine, but being erudite may not necessarily be good, and extensive knowledge can make a great thief, so it is better to stop."

Jiang Wen heard that something was wrong, but when he was about to speak, his foggy vision turned upside down, and he felt that the strange fragrance on his body became smoky and extremely strong, and the cold air in his body leaked from his bones, and he slowly fell to the ground. off the ground.

"Although Hanyuan Shougong incense can make people walk through the fairy mist, it is the cold fragrance of the fairyland in the sky. It condenses the air and coldness, and the camp and guard are stiff. You must first take the extremely dry and yang Wushi powder before you can resist it. Fragrance."

Jiang Wen sat down on the ground slumped, swiping the ancient bronze sword randomly, but couldn't control his arm freely, pointing crookedly at the old Taoist priest.

"You should read the medical book."

Yuanhuazi watched coldly.

Smell of alcohol, lost sweet-scented osmanthus, five stone powder, Han Yuan Shou Gong incense...

The moment before he fell to the ground, Jiang Wen finally connected these clues and found that he had been calculated long ago.

In order to use Hanyuan Shou Gongxiang, one must take Wushi powder, but Wushi powder is difficult for ordinary people to deal with heat and poison, and if it is not distributed properly, the five poisons will attack the heart, so he hides in the alchemy room and takes it many times with wine to avoid seeing guests.

During this period, for testing purposes, the old Taoist priest also ignited a small amount of Han Yuan Shou Gong Xiang test dose-this is the origin of the fragrance that he smelled when he entered the alchemy room, and Yuan Ziyi was occasionally stained with fragrance.

Yuan Huazi practiced for many years and did not drink alcoholic beverages. Naturally, he couldn't stand drinking a lot of alcohol. Therefore, the osmanthus that the little Taoist said was lost was secretly taken by Yuan Huazi to make osmanthus wine. He drank it with his favorite osmanthus flavor!
In this way, it wasn't the White Lotus Sect who hijacked the old Taoist priest to go up the mountain, but the old Taoist priest had already made preparations and planned to go to the "Jiahe Ascending Immortal Banquet" in person!
…………

In the 35th year of the first emperor, the fourth east tour of the first emperor arrived in Yunyang.

Along the way, Shihuang claimed to be the real person, not me, and his whereabouts were kept secret, so no one knew about it.Afterwards, all the ministers and the emperor discussed matters in Xianyang Palace, ordered a large-scale collection of corvees, and ordered Meng Tian to preside over the construction of the straight road from Jiuyuan to Yunyang.

Also in that year, more than [-] men and women in Wuyi Mountain heard that the corvée who had escaped death was coming again, and they set foot on the fairy feast at Manting Peak together, and disappeared since then.

Since then, whenever the prefectures and counties encounter disasters and soldiers, some people will walk on the road of no return, abandon all the pain in the world, remove all worries behind them, and walk the road of "becoming a fairy" in Manting Peak.

The origin of everything is that when the people of Wuyi Mountain accidentally discovered the cliff coffin, they found the secret method of ascending to immortality left by the pre-Qin hermit from the dead bones.

The year Yuanhuazi came to Wuyi Mountain, "the city was bitten by water, and the walls were destroyed by soldiers. It was a year of severe famine, and the people picked leaves to eat them."

The year Yuan Huazi came to Wuyi Mountain, he was neither that old nor young. He just came back to preside over the Fairy Temple in the order of his masters.

In the year when Yuan Huazi came to Wuyi Mountain, he witnessed the slaughter of Qing soldiers all over the foot of the mountain every five times, and the blood flowed in the Jiuqu River.It's just that the surviving mountain people's expression is extremely calm, with a strange attitude towards life and death, and a strange smile on their face that is still wet from tears.

A few days later, Yuan Huazi heard the noise and opened the gate, and found that the refugees were scattered outside the gate. Everyone was sallow, emaciated, sick, but wearing the most decent clothes, and walked towards the mountain road supporting each other at dusk.

I don't know who quietly put a child with a serious illness and fever outside the gate.

No one would admit to being the parent of a child.

With forbearable joy in their silence, they went up the mountain resolutely.The crooked formation of this group of nocturnal marchers has a terrifying expression. Ordinary people will only be genuinely terrified when they watch their jagged movements into the mountains.

Yuan Huazi opened his mouth, wanting to say something about "the way of heaven is far away, the way of humanity is far away, and it has been difficult to say since ancient times", but he was speechless.

That night, the red light on the Manting Peak was all over the sky, the fairy banquet in Jiagu was full of encouragement, and the sound of the immortals was lingering, but no one came back.

Since the Han Dynasty, the emergence of a cicada has been used as a metaphor for people's rebirth, but how can a person be resurrected after death?How is it different from seeking death in this way?It's just that compared with all the sufferings in the world, this ethereal and illusory path is easier to accept than lying cold in the soil.

Which is harder, between living hard and getting over everything?Which is easier?
The child whose family disappeared later became his apprentice, and also knew the whereabouts of his parents and relatives. He often looked at Manting Peak in a trance, with an expression of fear and curiosity, just like what Yuanhuazi saw on the faces of the mountain people that day.

Perhaps one day, the apprentice will resolutely walk into this Manting Peak like his parents and relatives?
Therefore, Yuanhuazi did not teach the Dharma to his disciples for a long time, and he was not even willing to raise his Taoist name.

He inherits the orthodoxy left by Immortal Master Bai Yuchan, and must guard under the Manting Peak of Wuyi Mountain to prevent the "immortals" on the mountain from spreading out and causing even greater disasters. Originally, he did not dare to provoke strange things on the Manting Peak, for fear Backfired.

Just as Jiang Wen said, scholars in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties visited the Netherworld, Gouxuan and Suoyin, claiming to be cleansers with rhinoceros, leaving behind countless disasters.

Han Yangfu's "Story of Foreign Objects" records: "The black rhinoceros, which expresses its spirit with its horns, contains essence and spits out strong spirits. It looks like a candle, and it is placed in the wilderness, and no animals can touch it."

Ever since black rhinoceros horn was made into Han Yuanshou palace incense, combined with the effect of five stones powder, the rhinoceros clearer has really discovered many indescribable things in the mountains, ravines and abysses of this world.Afterwards, they drank and feasted, drunk and dreamed of death, and anxiously wanted to forget all of this, but they didn't know that the seeds of the underworld had spread everywhere along with the nightmare.

People of insight in ancient times have hated wielding a rhinoceros to clean up guests, because from the Wei and Jin Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, the influence of the way of wielding a rhinoceros has never disappeared.

Wen Qiao Ranxi Zhaozhu saw the strange-shaped aquatic tribes at the bottom of the water. Since then, Niutouzhu has continued to have ghosts in the past dynasties. In Tang Dynasty, Qinglian Layman even threw himself into the water to "catch the moon" on the Zhuzhu. What did Taibai see at the bottom of the water before he died.

Daoist Daoist Sun Simiao also had lingering fears, and before he died, he earnestly instructed his disciples to destroy the Hanyuan Shougong incense prescription and Wushi powder prescription: "If you encounter this prescription, you must burn it immediately, and don't keep it for a long time!"

Immortal Bai Yuchan was born in Qiongzhou, Hainan, and cultivated Taoism in Wuyi with Mao, exhausted his Taoist power, and finally destroyed the Han Yuanshou Gongxiang formula left in the world, just to stop anyone from using rhinoceros to cause trouble.

But ordinary people seek liberation, monks seek immortality, everyone in the world has desires, there are so many mysteries in Wuyi Mountain, how many people can resist the temptation of immortality?
Yuan Huazi thought that Hongyang Shengtong, Jiang Wen, and himself were not good, but he didn't expect that his apprentice could not stand the temptation, and took advantage of his retreat to enter the cave.

But I should always do something, such as closing the door that shouldn't be opened for ordinary people, such as persuading the lost to look back at the worldly attachment, such as being willful and reckless once when I am very old.

Yuan Huazi dragged Jiang Wen to the side of the road, stood in the mist without showing a sad face, and Shi Shiran walked towards the dense fog of the feasting fairy altar where the red clouds were brilliant.

"Today is also."
