Chapter 137 Obtaining the Dharma Observatory of Stars, Enlightenment in the Red Dust

The Jiangxi Rooster reported Xiaochi, and Shangyi Fang entered Cuiyunqiu.

Jiutianchang opens the palace, and all nations pay homage to Mianqi.

After getting off Tianlu, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but lose his focus for a moment when he looked around at Bai Yujing, who was bustling with people in the early morning.

"If those poets who have been passed down through the ages in ancient times lived to this day, how many more poems and essays about Bai Yujing would have been written through the ages?"

With emotion in his heart, Jiang Xuan didn't stop his hands, patted the horse's neck and got on the galloping road.

In addition to the "Sky Road", which is a three-foot-long expressway, Yujing City also has "Chilu" and "Human Way".

The galloping road is the road for monks, warriors, and soldiers to gallop, while the human way is the road for ordinary people to drive and walk.

The gap between extraordinary people and ordinary people is too great. Even the occasional wind blowing up while running is almost like a natural disaster to ordinary people.

In order to protect ordinary people, and also to distinguish the boundary between ordinary people and supernatural beings, Chilu and Human Way appeared.

Of course, only Emperor Chongzhen who built Yujing City knew whether there was any intention to encourage ordinary people to practice Taoism and martial arts.

After galloping his horse for half a stick of incense, Jiang Xuan patted Yu Chi's right neck when he saw a tall building.

The next moment, Yu Chi turned down the right side of Chi Road and entered a slightly empty street.

The street name is Qianxing, and there are 820 houses, all of which are the residences of the Shenxiaomen.

That's right, Jiang Xuan thought about it halfway, and finally decided to go to the Star Observation Tower to pay homage to the Patriarch.

In this era, Shimen is actually similar to home.

A master is roughly equivalent to a father, a disciple of a master is roughly equivalent to a brother, a senior uncle is equivalent to a cousin, a disciple of a senior uncle is a cousin, and others in the division are equivalent to cousins.

There may be a little dirty inside the door, but the general environment still supports each other and is consistent with the outside world.

Especially in sects like the Shenxiao Sect, the rules of mutual help are engraved in the bones.

Of course, the above statement is only for the righteous way.

Now that Jiang Xuan has arrived in Baiyujing, it can be said that he went to Wanling City for the first stop because he was young and playful, but after going to Wanling City, he went to Liyuan, and finally thought of the Star Observation Tower, which is unreasonable.

That's why he got off the Tianlu and went straight to Qianxing Street where the Star Observatory is located.

After entering Qianxing Street, he looked down at his Confucian robes, Jiang Xuan scratched his head and went back to find an inn outside the street to change his clothes.

A moment later, a handsome young man wearing a purple Shenxiao Taoist robe, riding a mighty tiger, and teasing a fat white fox in his hand, got out of the inn while the innkeeper nodded and bowed, and walked all the way into Xingchen Avenue.

After entering the street, he was about to say hello to two brothers from the same school who were talking at the intersection, but before Jiang Xuan raised his hand, he disappeared on the street in a split second.

"Senior Brother Qian, did a colleague come in just now?"

That cultivator called Brother Qian nodded his head:

"I saw it too. That person seems to be riding a tiger and hugging a fat fox."

"Brother, why do I feel that he just wanted to say hello to us?"

"I saw it too, his hands were raised."

After the words were finished, the two looked at each other, then they kept silent, bid farewell to each other and returned to their own courtyard.

When Jiang Xuan raised his hand halfway, he found that the surrounding scenery had changed drastically. Then he bowed and clasped his fists for a moment, and saluted the Taoist sitting cross-legged on the futon in the quiet room:
"Disciple Daoxuan, pay homage to Master Jiuquan's uncle."

Jiuquan, full name Dai Jiuquan, formerly known as Daixing, is a disciple of Daidu of the Shenxiao School, younger brother Wei Ming, uncle Ye Jing, and uncle Jiang Xuanshi.

His realm is the same as Wei Ming's, and he is also a True Monarch of the Divine Ability Realm.

It stands to reason that Jiang Xuan should call him the uncle of Master Duhang.

But people say that things in the world are not perfect, so is it okay to be perfect?
So he gave himself a nickname of Jiuquan, and let others call him that too.

That's why Jiang Xuancai called him the uncle of Master Jiuquan.

Hearing this, Dai Jiuquan opened his eyes and looked up and down at the bowed Jiang Xuan, then paused for a while on the chubby little fox, and then waved his sleeves to help Jiang Xuan up.

"How is the capital? How is the world?"

Recalling the scenes he saw on the road, Jiang Xuan thought for a while and said:

"The capital city is good, but I always feel that something is wrong."

"The evil spirits are raging outside, but the Emperor Zhu family controls so many troops, how could they allow the evil spirits to rampage in the Ming Dynasty?"

"Isn't the Zhu family's ancestral motto that the king dies at Sheji, and the emperor guards the country's gate? It's been like this in the Ming Dynasty. They won't just join forces with Tianshidao to build a Sheji Temple?"

Dai Jiuquan looked at Jiang Xuan strangely when he heard the words, apparently he did not expect him to say such words.

He just wanted to hear Jiang Xuan's comment on the difference between Yujing City and the outside world. Why did he stab the Zhu family?

"That's not your concern."

"I'll just ask you how Yujing City is, why are you talking to me about what's there?"

Jiang Xuan smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, and then took out the jade slip that Kuilin gave him:

"Master Uncle, this is the "Introduction Technique" that this disciple obtained from Xiexiu yesterday. Let's see if he has left behind in it."

Dai Jiuquan was taken aback when he heard the words, and then silently took the jade slip from Jiang Xuan's hand.

After a while, he returned the jade slips to Jiang Xuan, "That evil cultivator is quite knowledgeable, and he didn't leave anything behind, just feel free to comprehend."

Speaking of this, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he thought that his apprentice, his senior brother, had realized the "Tai Chi Heart Sutra" and entered the Tao in one year, and he had been promoted from the Taoist state to the Xiantian state in September, he felt a little autistic.

This talent is really scary.

So the words he originally wanted to remind him not to forget in practice turned into something else when it came to his lips:

"There are still some inheritances of 72 earth magic arts in Pai, which one do you want to learn?"

Jiang Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard the words:
"Is there any "Sword Art"?"

Speaking of Chinese young men, who hasn't imagined riding a horse across the world with a sword, and chilling nineteen states with one sword?
Jiang Xuan thought the same, when he heard that he could choose inheritance, he immediately thought of "Swordsmanship".

But to his disappointment, Dai Jiuquan shook his head, "No."

"Then are there any techniques of "Roading the Wind", "Traveling the Earth", "Walking on the Water", and "Sending the Stick"?"

"nor."

"Are there any techniques of "Guide", "Nongwan", and "Dengchao"?"

"still none."

Jiang Xuan was silent.

He didn't have anything he wanted.

It seems that the inheritance of my own magical powers is not very complete.

Thinking about it, Shen Xiao Pai's thunder method is invincible, and it would take a lifetime to study just one thunder method. In this case, the demand for other magical powers will naturally be less.

Seeing Jiang Xuan was silent, Dai Jiuquan said:

"The mountain gate now has nine supernatural powers of earth evil, namely "Tongyou", "Sitting on the Fire", "Entering the Water", "Hiding the Sun", "Swallowing the Knife", "Pot Sky", "Chasing the Soul", "Capturing the Soul", " Stars."

"By the way, "Number of Stars" seems to be enlightened by you kid from the ancient Youying tree, so we don't need to teach it if you think about it."

"The remaining eight kinds of earth evil supernatural powers, which one do you want to learn?"

Jiang Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard the Earth Sha supernatural power that came out of Dai Jiuquan's mouth:
"Master, the technique of "Traveling the Netherworld" can really give people insight into the hell of the underworld?"

Dai Jiuquan nodded, "Yes."

"The Underworld Hell is actually a larger underworld, nothing special."

"However, although there is no Yama Ksitigarbha among them, there are quite a few Yin-type spiritual objects."

Jiang Xuan nodded, and then said, "Since that's the case, the disciple must learn the technique of "Hu Tian"."

What is Hutian?

The universe in the sleeve is big, and the sun, moon and sky are long in the pot, which is the pot sky.

After learning the "Pot of Heaven", one can open up a space or a cave in the void, and Naxumi is like a mustard.

From Jiang Xuan's point of view, although the "Pot of Heaven" is a technique of earth evil, its power is not inferior to that of Tiangang at all.

According to legend, "The Universe in the Sleeves" written by Zhen Yuanzi, the lord of the Earth Immortal, was derived from the "Hu Tian Shu" after it was cultivated to the extreme.

Jiang Xuan didn't ask "Pot of Heaven" before, because he subconsciously forgot about it.

After all, this thing is a bit of a supermodel, and he didn't expect that his own mountain gate would have such an inheritance.

Dai Jiuquan was surprised when he heard Jiang Xuan's choice, "I thought you would say you want to learn everything."

Jiang Xuan was taken aback, "Can you still learn all of them?"

"why not?"

The old god Dai Jiuquan said:
"If it's other people, I'm afraid that their practice of magic will delay the improvement of their cultivation realm."

"But you boy, I really don't worry about you at all."

"If I'm not mistaken, your kung fu can already work on its own, right?"

Jiang Xuan nodded.

Except for the fundamental things, there is really nothing to hide from these elders of the division.

Seeing Jiang Xuan nodding his head, Dai Jiuquan couldn't help showing a look of emotion:

"At the beginning, I cultivated the kung fu to the point where it could run on its own, and it was already ten years after I entered the Tao."

"You kid, your comprehension is really outrageous."

With a sigh of emotion, he took out a jade slip:

"This is the inheritance jade slip of "The Pot of Heaven". Since you said that you want the "Pot of Heaven", then I will only give you the "Pot of Heaven."

"Other earth-shaking supernatural powers, we'll talk about it after you get started with "Pot Heaven Technique"."

Reaching out to take the jade slips, Jiang Xuan immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Master and Uncle, for your blessing."

After speaking, he changed his voice and said:

"Master Uncle, this disciple wants to buy some spirit beasts in the capital, but I don't have some precious money."

"Didn't you raise a lot of spirit beasts on your bamboo mountain? Do you want to raise them?"

Jiang Xuan nodded, "I still need to raise it."

"The disciple wants to collect all 28 constellations and use spirit beasts to lay out the "Four Elephants Constellation Formation"."

"Now we have gathered Kang Jinlong, Ditu Raccoon, Fangri Rabbit, Xinyue Fox, Tail Fire Tiger, Xingri Horse, Lou Jingou, Niu Jinniu and Xuri Rat Jiusu. Thinking about the prosperity of the capital, maybe we can Get the rest of the stars together."

After speaking, Jiang Xuan couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

How do you feel that Juxingxiu is similar to Jika in the previous life?
"If you want to raise 28 constellations, you will need a lot of resources."

"There are many places in the mountain gate that need resources. Although I like you, I won't help you to cultivate 28 stars."

Jiang Xuan heard that the problem is not big:

"Master Uncle, the Fifth Battalion Army gave some disciples some methods of raising spirit birds and spirit birds. Now those spirit birds have begun to breed, so there is no shortage of spirit flesh disciples."

"Besides, my disciple strayed into Gu Village on the way of traveling, and Gu Lao of the Lianshan Clan of Gu Village gave my disciple five grain spiritual seeds of [-] mu of land, as well as the method of planting five grain spiritual things."

"So there is no shortage of spiritual food disciples."

"There will be no shortage of spirit objects and spirit beasts in the future, and there will be formations to guide the power of the stars to turn them into spirit energy. This disciple should be able to support 28 stars."

Dai Jiuquan's eyes widened when he heard the words, "Did Mr. Gu give you the Spiritual Seed of Five Grains?"

Hearing the words that came out of Dai Jiuquan's mouth, Jiang Xuan thought a lot at once, and finally he suppressed all these thoughts one by one, then nodded and said, "Yes."

"I don't know if the teacher wants seeds and the method of planting?"

Dai Jiuquan pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head, "Since Mr. Gu gave it to you, then you can plant it yourself."

Seeing Dai Jiuquan's appearance, Jiang Xuan thought for a while and said, "The disciple gave the spirit grain seed to a disciple of the master's school before."

"That disciple is currently guarding the Taoist Temple in Yujiang Town, Linjiang County, Beihe Prefecture. It shouldn't matter if the disciple gives him the seeds, right?"

"It doesn't matter if you give less, just don't send randomly in the future."

After saying this, Dai Jiuquan took out another storage ring to Jiang Xuan:

"There are one billion treasures in the ring, if it is not enough, I will ask my uncle for it."

"Other than that, don't bother to buy 28 constellations. You can buy spirit beasts and plants with good foundations."

"If you want to publish the "Four Elephant Constellation Formation", you can only rely on the 28 constellations."

After rambling on for a while, Dai Jiuquan finally exchanged a guide for Jiang Xuan, and then sent Jiang Xuan out of Qianxing Street with a wave of his hand.

Standing in a daze on the human path where people come and go, Dai Jiuquan's voice came to Jiang Xuan's ears:

"The black market and other places are marked for you. If you want to buy something, you can buy it yourself. You have the ability to see spiritual things after practicing the "Tai Chi Heart Sutra". You can also go to the Odd Object Building to have a look."

"When the precious banknotes are used up, I will ask my uncle for them. My uncle doesn't have many other things, but there are more precious banknotes."

Listening to the sound transmission from his ear, Jiang Xuan tightened the storage ring in his hand, and Jiang Xuan couldn't help but feel a little lost.

"Is this the unpretentious and unpretentious life of the great sect?"

"Love love."

With a few words of emotion, Jiang Xuan immediately glanced at the crowd who had taken the initiative to move away from him by three meters after he appeared, shook his head, and called Yu Chi out of the demon refining pot.

Riding on the jade chi, Jiang Xuan patted his neck and said, "Go to the pear garden."

Yu Chi snorted when he heard the words, and then stepped on the human path instead of walking on the road.

Both the Pear Garden and the Observatory are located in the east of Suocheng, and they are located very close to each other.

In just a quarter of an hour, Jiang Xuan, who rode Yunchi through the crowd, came to the street where the Liyuan was located.

The name of the street is Baiyi, implying that there are countless artisans living on the street.

Baiyi Street is more lively than Qianxing Street where the Shenxiao School is located.

Crowds of people rub shoulders and heels, and there are various craftsmen competing to perform on both sides of the road.

Paper door origami, countless colorful paper cranes hovering in the street, these paper cranes occasionally land on children's shoulders and peck them lightly, making them laugh endlessly.

The masons chiseled the stone, and amidst the sound of clangs, the vivid stone statues revealed their figures under their chisel hammers, and they could be used as town houses when they were taken back.

There are also ancient traditions such as fortune-telling, shadow puppetry, Danqing, clay sculpture, puppetry, paper-cutting and so on.

I found an inn and changed into a Confucian uniform to blend in with the crowd. At this moment, Jiang Xuan seemed to have really blended into this era.

Buy some sugar figurines in the east, buy a kite in the west, wear a Shenhou mask and a golden cudgel to tease the children, take off the mask and reward the storyteller who spits golden lotus in the teahouse.

At sunset, when he boarded the top floor of Donglaiju, looking at the bustling streets after nightfall, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but sigh:
"Red dust."

When the voice fell, the world suddenly changed in his eyes.

Countless mortal aura rose from the common people and soared into the sky, condensing the world of mortals in the sky above Yujing City.

Looking at the circling and reciprocating world of mortals in the sky, doesn't it reflect the joys and sorrows in Yujing?

There are also all kinds of mortal qi mixed with various distracting thoughts sinking into the ground, and after being stirred by the earth qi, it turns into evil qi, and becomes the turbid red dust that people hate ghosts, changing and moving with the earth veins.

Countless mortal auras passed by Jiang Xuan, as if he could change the joys and sorrows of ordinary people with just a flick of his hand.

He stretched out his fingers to tear off a wisp of mortal air, but as soon as he raised his hand, Jiang Xuan's vision went into a trance, and the mortal air all over the sky also disappeared in his eyes.

Even if he concentrates on searching, he can't find the endless sorrows and joys in the world of mortals, and he can't see the world of mortals.

While thinking about it, his eyes fell on the figure standing with his hands behind his back by the window, and Jiang Xuan immediately bowed deeply, "Thank you, Master and Uncle, for protecting this disciple."

Turning around, Dai Jiuquan had complex expressions on his face:
"It's not long since you left, how did you realize the Tao?"

Jiang Xuan smiled lightly when he heard the words:

"The world is prosperous. It's just a fluke for my disciple to travel to the capital today to experience the joys and sorrows of the world.

"lucky?"

"Heh, if that boy Yang Wei knows that you got a glimpse of the world of mortals by chance, he doesn't know how it feels."

"Your supernatural power in "Red Dust" was taught by him, right?"

Jiang Xuan smiled even more when he heard the words:

"Tao should not be spoken lightly. I still can't tell what the Tao of the world is."

"If I can describe it one day in the future, and Master Yang has not realized the supernatural powers, then I will definitely tell you all the ways I have realized."

"Drinking water does not forget the well digger, very good."

After expressing emotion, Dai Jiuquan shook his head again:

"I said that there is nothing perfect in the world, so I gave myself the nickname "Nine Perfections."

"But now that I think about it, that's just me."

"You kid, do you want me, your uncle, to take a nickname of Shiquan?"

Jiang Xuan couldn't help being speechless, and replied after a while:
"There is nothing perfect in the world."

"The disciple is just practicing a little bit more smoothly."

Dai Jiuquan nodded thoughtfully, "That's right."

"After all, you kid is still being watched by the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus."

Jiang Xuan was speechless again.

Which door is this and which door is not open?
Seeing that Jiang Xuan was speechless, Dai Jiuquan smiled and patted him on the shoulder:

"Cultivate hard, and the sect's grand plan may not be successful. Maybe the future of the Shenxiao sect will fall on you."

Leaving a look full of expectation, Dai Jiuquan disappeared in front of Jiang Xuan.

Recalling the look in his uncle's eyes, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt a burden on his shoulders.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xuan then bowed deeply to the place where Dai Jiuquan disappeared:
"The disciple will live up to the high expectations of the teacher."

After the ceremony, he went down to Donglaiju and walked straight towards the Liyuan.
