Chapter 439: Heavenly Dog Bites Through Qizhe Thunder
Director Guo knew what these guys were thinking, but it had nothing to do with him. He only knew that this area of Jiangxi was under his jurisdiction. The matter of Junfeng Mountain had been reported to all levels, and so many eyes were watching this place. If this group of people caused trouble, he would have to take the blame.
Seeing that Director Guo didn't give him face, Fu Long, who was young and hot-tempered, felt a little embarrassed, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Guo, don't forget, when you were a child in the village, it was my dad..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Director Guo spitted and spoke excitedly: "The village is the village, what place is this now? Do you still think it is the ordinary Junfeng Mountain? During special periods, the Special Bureau and the Dao League have the right to control all local departments. Do you want me to call the higher-ups and have the central government come to speak in person?"
Gah!
Fu Long fell to the ground instantly, exchanged a few glances with Fu Shanye, but ultimately did not dare to lose his temper, and rolled back down the mountain with his men in shame.
Director Guo looked at the backs of Fu and his group of people going down the mountain with a dark face.
This is what the Special Bureau and the Taoist Alliance are worried about. The full exposure of the revival of spiritual energy is both a good thing and a bad thing.
Now all Chinese people have a general idea of what spiritual practice is, and are intentionally looking for these things, hoping to achieve enlightenment overnight and transcend the mundane world.
The Shenxiao Sect is a large and famous sect. If this lineage really left something behind, it would definitely not be ordinary stuff, so everyone in the capital is very nervous now.
With the precedents of Ding Shan and Fang Shan, if the inheritance of the Shenxiao Sect were to fall into the hands of ordinary people and they were armed with weapons and had murderous intentions, the harm to society would be unimaginable to others.
The noise outside naturally also reached the Ziyun Temple on the top of the mountain. They knew who Li Yang, Chi Yanhong, and Qi Qiansu were, and no matter how they moved, they would hear it.
Ignoring the intrigue outside, a young man with a round head and glasses walked up to greet Li Yang and Chi Yanhong.
It can be seen that this young man is very unfamiliar with salutes. He is wearing a simple blue robe. He looks chubby and a little shy. His body is as weak as most young people in modern society who stay up too late... Only the pair of eyes pressed down by the bangs are very unique. There are actually several white concentric circles in the black pupils.
Li Yang glanced at him calmly and nodded: "What a promising talent for thunder cultivation. The Mysterious Diagram of Thunder Cultivation states that when thunder cultivation is perfected, one can 'hide thunder secrets in the eyes and stop disasters by observing the qi'. You must have a thunder cultivation master in your ancestry and inherited the thunder cultivation from your bloodline... Then you must be the young friend Tan Zhenming mentioned in Daoist Fellow Qi's letter."
Tan Zhenming smiled shyly and bowed again: "Disciple Tan Zhenming of Qingcheng Taoist Academy, greetings to Master Li of Baiyun Mountain."
Seeing the increasingly younger, nearly middle-aged Qi Qiansu walking out from the backyard of the Taoist temple with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, he stood in front of Li Yang and Chi Yanhong and smiled heartily: "Sure enough, he can't escape your discerning eyes, Taoist friend. When I first accepted him into the mountain gate, I only felt that his physique was born for thunder magic, but I didn't know he had the origin of Shenxiao Sect."
Next to Li Yang, Chi Yanhong, who was wearing a white Taoist robe, looked at Tan Zhenming with a clear-sighted look on his face. "Is your last name Tan? No wonder..."
"Tan? Is there anything special about this surname?" Tan Zhenming raised his head, still looking confused about his identity as the direct descendant of the Shenxiao Sect.
Chi Yanhong's face froze, and his eyebrows knitted slightly: "Since you don't know your surname and the origin of Shenxiao Sect, how can you tell Fellow Daoist Qi that there will be a legacy here?"
Tan Zhenming scratched his head, looking like a typical modern otaku:
"Ah, I didn't know what the Shenxiao Sect was at first, but my father passed away during the Spring Festival. He must have told me that there was something in Junfeng Mountain that could be revealed at this time, and he asked me to retrieve it...
During the Spring Festival, I was busy taking care of my funeral and improving my game scores, so I had no time to come here. I planned to go back to the Taoist temple and find two friends to look for it together. When Dean Qi found out, I realized that the thing I wanted to obtain was related to the Shenxiao Sect. "
Qi Qianshu sighed after hearing this and patted Tan Zhenming's head: "It has also been a thousand years of evolution. Time has changed. The direct descendants of Shenxiao Sect, the source of our Taoist thunder method, have even forgotten their own lineage."
“I see.” Chi Yanhong nodded, and then looked at Tan Zhenming again, with a complicated expression: “Actually, I am also one of the descendants of the Shenxiao Sect, but I only inherited one lineage, which is considered a side branch.”
"What do you mean?" Qi Qiansu asked.
Chi Yanhong smiled faintly: "The orthodox of Shenxiao Sect should be Wang Wenqing and Lin Lingsu, but Shenxiao has masters Zhang, Li, Chen, Bai, Sa, Pan, Yang, Tang, and Mo since the two masters Lin and Wang, and it is still magnificent. All the texts of Tianlei and Fengyue were taught by each master."
"Zhang, Li, Bai, Sa, Pan, Yang, Tang, and Mo are the more mature branches of the Shenxiao sect. They have obtained the Shenxiao thunder method either directly or indirectly. For example, Zhang refers to Zhang Jixian, the 30th generation Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu. Zhang Jixian wrote "The Song of the Chapter of Mingzhen Pohuan" to explain the theory of thunder method."
"And the Bai here refers to the ancestor of my branch, Bai Yuchan."
Qi Qiansu was stunned when he heard this: "So Daoist Fellow Chi's Daoism was passed down from Patriarch Bai Yuchan?"
He had always thought that Chi Yanhong's inheritance should be related to Li Yang. As for Li Yang's inheritance... experts at home and abroad have searched through various Taoist classics, but could not find out the connection.
"It's a hidden vein. There's only a dilapidated Taoist temple in Tiantai Mountain that has passed it down to my generation..." Chi Yanhong sighed, shook his head and continued, "During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Southern School of the Jindan Sect also passed on the Shenxiao Five Thunder Method. Patriarch Baiyunchan said in "The Record of Master Cuixu Chen Obtaining the Dharma" that Master Wang Zhenjun ordered his disciple Xin Zhongyi to pass the Dharma to Chen Nan, and Chen Nan passed it on to him... But my lineage didn't pass down the Thunder Method, which is a pity for our lineage."
"Speaking of these branches, there are two main veins."
Tan Zhenming heard it carefully and was stunned. At first he was happy when he knew that he was the direct descendant of Shenxiao Sect. But then he was told that there was no one left in the Shenxiao Sect nowadays and he was all alone. He was filled with depression and his mood was up and down.
As for inheritance and the like… those are all imaginary. Whether they can be found is another matter. Even if they are found, now that the three big bosses of the Chinese cultivation world, Li, Qi, and Chi, have gathered together, it would be good enough for an ordinary person like me who has not yet drawn in qi to be able to drink some soup with them…
Now I know that the great Taoist master Chi Yanhong and Longhu Mountain actually have a lineage with me. What do you call this? This is called human feelings, called relatives, this is the biggest gain.
Not knowing what was going on in Tan Zhenming's mind, Chi Yanhong nodded and continued, "There are only two main branches, Lin and Wang, which are said to have the most orthodox Shenxiao secrets."
"After Wang Wenqing, the only person who inherited the orthodox teachings of Shenxiao was Gao Ziyu of Xincheng. Ziyu passed it on to Xu Ciju of Linjiang, Ciju passed it on to Nie Tianxi of Jinxi, and Tianxi passed it on to Tan Wuzhen of Linchuan, who was known as Tan Wulei. After the Yuan Dynasty, Tan Wuzhen was still active in the world. Volume 14 of Yijian Bingzhi by Hong Mai of the Song Dynasty says: A Taoist named Tan of Jianchang was famous for his Five Thunders Taoist technique. He traveled to Yun and Fuzhou, praying for rain and curing evil spirits for people. He summoned thunder and lightning, which seemed to respond.
Since Tan Daoyuan, there has been no historical record of Wang Wenqing's lineage. It must have been Tan Daoyuan who turned the Shenxiao inheritance into a family inheritance."
"As for the 'Lin' lineage, history records that Lin passed it on to Zhang Ruhui, then to Chen Daoyi, and then to Xue Dongzhen and Lu Junye... Lu Jun passed away in Jianjiang. Before his death, he took out a book from his pillow and gave it to someone. No one knew the method, so the lineage continued. I went to that place two years before the revival of spiritual energy, and I didn't find any records about this lineage. It can be said that the inheritance was completely cut off."
After listening to Chi Yanhong's long speech, Tan Zhenming was surprised: "According to what Master Chi said, I am the direct descendant of Grandmaster Wang Wenqing's lineage?"
"Exactly."
"In later generations, those who claim to be the orthodox of Shenxiao are mostly lying. The branches of Shenxiao may have one general but several different factions, or one faction but different spells. As a result, there are many errors and distortions, and many people hide the truth and reveal the false, thus causing slander and confusion among each other."
Taoism is very traditional, and the most important thing is the inheritance of the sect. As the saying goes, if the name is not right, then the words will not flow. This dispute over the orthodoxy between the direct and collateral lines is very cruel and realistic. Otherwise, even though the Tianshi Dao in Taiwan had already developed far beyond the Longhu Mountain in the mainland, it still took great pains to enter Longhu Mountain and recognize its ancestors.
Qi Qiansu also knew what Chi Yanhong said later, and had already reported it to the Taoist Alliance. This was to convince people from other lineages that they had obtained permission from their direct descendants to develop Junfeng Mountain, which was in accordance with the rules. The reason why Dingshan and Fangshan were developed before was because there were no successors now, so everyone rushed in.
After sorting out the inheritance, the next step was to look for the so-called Shenxiao Sect inheritance. According to Tan Zhenming, his father was already unconscious before his death, and he was vague about what he said. He only said that it was in the Junfeng Mountain Taoist Temple, but he didn't specify where it was. Qi Qiansu had just searched the entire stone Taoist temple, but still found nothing.
Li Yang stood under the paint-less and dusty statue, looking at the few people who were once again rummaging around in Ziyun Temple, and hesitated to speak.
Chi Yanhong noticed his expression and approached him to ask, "According to the fortune you interpreted for me two days ago, do you already know something?"
"Maybe. I want to take it out and have a look, but I feel it would be a blasphemy to my ancestors." He was a little conflicted.
Ah!
Knowing this guy's character, Chi Yanhong simply kept silent. After a few seconds, he heard the other party say, "Forget it, just take it out."
Qi Qiansu heard what the two meant and stepped forward to ask, "Have you two discovered something?"
"It's not really my discovery. To be honest, it was you who discovered it two days later..." Li Yang was vague and just stared at the statue.
The divine consciousness covered it, well, it was just an ordinary clay sculpture, with rotten dry grass and dirt inside.
Yes, it would be strange if the secret treasure of the Shenxiao Sect could be detected by divine consciousness.
Li Yang complained in his heart and immediately used [Control Object].
"empty empty empty"
No one knows how long this statue has been placed here. It seems as if roots have taken root underneath. Even though Li Yang was very careful, the temple was still filled with dust for a while.
He respectfully put the statue aside. Seeing Li Yang treating the statue so carefully, Chi Yanhong thought that the statue must have other ideas. He immediately drew out the Zhaoluan Sword and wanted to attack the statue, but was stopped by Li Yang.
"Don't get excited. The thing is not here. If it was here, it would have been stolen eight hundred years ago."
Li Yang shook his head and looked at the large bluestone under the statue.
The bluestone statue was integrated with the foundation of the entire Taoist temple without any gaps. It was a naturally generated bluestone that was brought here by an unknown ancestor and carved into the Ziyun Palace.
"I'm sorry, all the ancestors, I don't know who is below. If Shenxiao Sect needs you in the future, I will definitely help you with all my strength."
Li Yang seemed to know what would happen next. He took out the sword Ame-no-Kume and prayed first.
Chi Yanhong and Qi Qiansu figured out something and kept silent, but Tan Zhenming couldn't hold it in and his mouth was grinning from head to back.
Shenxiao Sect? Where is the Shenxiao Sect in modern times? Isn't it just because I am the only one left? In other words, Li Zhenjun's promise is fulfilled on me!
The number one person in the world, the number one person in the world, has promised that his path of cultivation will be smooth sailing in the future, and he can easily get points by relying on others, right?
While they were still fantasizing about their happy and beautiful life in the future, Li Yang finished his prayer and the sword Ama-no-Kuromo came out.
"Stand back!"
Immediately afterwards, Li Yang ordered the three people to retreat, and with a wave of his hands, he slammed into the bluestone floor.
boom!
Amid flying gravel, they dug more than three meters deep, forming a large dark hole in the temple. Not long after, a thin-skinned coffin was dug out.
No one could have imagined that there would be a coffin in this natural, tightly-fitting bluestone. No one knew what era the coffin was from. As soon as it was placed on the ground, wood chips began to fall down.
Tan Zhenming was the only one present, and he immediately volunteered to lift the lid, shouting, "Oh, what a smell... ah, why is it a coffin of black charcoal?"
Chi Yanhong and Qi Qiansu went up to take a look and found that the coffin was indeed full of carbon powder, occupying almost half of the entire coffin.
Li Yang looked at Tan Zhenming, who was rolling carbon powder on his fingers, and said calmly: "Black charcoal? This is the remains of your ancestor after his death."
"?"
"?!"
Tan Zhenming's face suddenly turned pale. He carefully brushed off the carbon powder on his fingertips and kowtowed repeatedly to apologize.
Chi Yanhong looked at the coffin of carbon powder, frowning solemnly: "Just now when I went up the mountain, I heard from Fu Shanye that after the old Taoist died, his heart, liver, spleen and lungs turned into carbon... I guess this must be one of the characteristics of their Shenxiao School's thunder method."
Qi Qiansu recalled the description of the Divine Thunder Method in the Taoist scriptures, and after a long while he spoke:
"Wang Wenqing once said, 'Those who practice the Divine Sky Method take the Dao as their body and the Dharma as their use. They cultivate it from within, gathering the five elements... When it rises, it rises; when it rains, it rains; so the response is as fast as an impact.' Their Divine Sky Thunder Method seems to focus on the interaction with the five elements of heaven and earth, nourishing the five thunders with the five internal organs. Once the Dao of Life and Death disappears, the thunder Qi in the body will be out of control, and naturally all the five internal organs, tendons and bones will be refined into carbon powder."
The four of them looked solemn as they reverently prayed for the soul of the founder of the Shenxiao sect who lived in an unknown dynasty. Then Li Yang used his magical powers to rummage under the carbon powder and immediately pulled out six jade tablets.
These jade plaques are divided into blue and white, some are large and some are small. There is a symbol on the back of each one, which looks like a taboo word or a Taoist pattern. It has many strokes and strange shapes, and it implies a sense of vastness.
Hiss!
When Qi Qiansu saw this symbol, he was startled and felt both mysterious and powerful.
Li Yang picked out the largest bluestone jade plate, Chi Yanhong also picked out a white jade plate, and then threw the remaining four jade plates to Qi Qiansu.
From what Li Yang said, Qi Qiansu understood that only one piece of jade token would be enough. He picked out one blue and one white from the four pieces and gave them to Tan Zhenming, and kept two for himself.
After all, the three of them are influential people in the cultivation world, and it is impossible for them to not give any benefit to Tan Zhenming, the direct descendant.
After the professionals took away the carbon powder in the coffin, they found two sentences of seal characters engraved on the bottom of the coffin:
——The heavenly dog bites through the thunder of the hibernation period, and insects chirp as the day breaks open.
Li Yang frowned slightly, pondering this motto, and said lightly: "The jade token is just a pass. The real treasure is still in this motto."
