Chapter 84: Taoist Holy Land Tianshi Mansion!
Chapter 84: Taoist Holy Land Tianshi Mansion!
"But there are some interesting people here." Jiang Chen had a meaningful smile on his face, and his words seemed to hint at something.
"The Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Contest is just a few days away. It's a major event in the alien world, and many old guys will be there." Zhang Xuanling didn't care about the aliens mixed in the crowd.
There is no need to worry that these strange people will attack ordinary people.
Zhang Xuanling is already accustomed to it.
While the two were talking, Wang Zheng and others finally reached the top of the mountain. In order to keep up with Jiang Chen and Zhang Xuanling, they used their skills and were still a little out of breath.
"It's a minute faster than I expected. The elders are still as skilled as they were in the past." Zhang Xuanling said with a smile.
"What do you mean by 'not as bad as we were in the past'? Our old bones are still able to move. We'll be lucky if we can live another ten years." Several high-ranking officials said frankly. They have all lived for more than a hundred years and have let go of many things.
At this point, Zhang Xuanling didn't say anything else.
"Oh no! I forgot about Wan'er!" Wang Zheng always felt that something was missing. He was shocked to see that Lin Wan'er had disappeared without a trace.
The mantis on his shoulder also waved its claws.
"This..." Zhang Xuanling and others were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Don't worry, she's here too."
A few people followed Jiang Chen's gaze and saw Lin Wan'er appear at the cable car terminal on the other side, waving at them.
Lin Wan'er quickly came to Jiang Chen and others.
"Master Jiang, I'm not much slower than you guys." Lin Wan'er narrowed her eyes slightly, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing two dimples on her cheeks.
Everyone laughed.
Led by Zhang Xuanling, the group walked straight through the Dragon and Tiger Square, passing by the various side halls and the main hall. As they went deeper, there were fewer and fewer tourists around, and they also saw many well-dressed Taoist priests.
It’s just that these Taoists are not extraordinary people, they are just masters of literature and Taoism.
Until everyone walked out of the outer courtyard, they found a small path leading to a mysterious place in the mountains.
"This is the path leading to the real Tianshi Mansion."
Walking out of the outer courtyard is like stepping into a vibrant painting, filled with vibrant life. Tender green grass sprouts, like fine needlepoints, weave a fluffy green carpet.
In the mountains, you can actually see streams of water, like coiled silver snakes, with no idea where they lead to at the end.
The path is a bit steep but it's not a big problem. After crossing the mountain, you can see the buildings of Tianshi Mansion.
But at this time, everyone faced a difficult problem.
"There's a cliff ahead!" Lin Wan'er swallowed her saliva and looked at the abyss under her feet in shock. A whistling wind blew past, making Lin Wan'er tremble uncontrollably.
She took two steps back in fear, and her legs felt weak.
"Master Zhang, we are not going to pass through those two iron chains, are we?" Lin Wan'er stretched out her slightly trembling index finger and pointed at the thick iron chain connecting the cliff.
Although the chain is very thick and as wide as the palms of two adult men, it is impossible to walk across it.
Lin Wan'er looked around and found that there were no facilities inside the cable car.
It seems that there is only this one channel.
"Xiao Wan'er, isn't there a sign here?" Wang Zheng smiled and pointed to the sign on the ground beside him.
"You can enter the Tianshi Mansion only after you walk through the iron chains!"
Lin Wan'er's face suddenly turned as pale as bitter melon.
It seems that she can't enter the Tianshi Mansion.
"It's okay, let's go. I'll take you there." Jiang Chen said at this time
"Ah? But I'm a little afraid of heights." Lin Wan'er was still a little frightened.
But before Lin Wan'er could come to her senses, Zhang Xuanling and others jumped and landed steadily on the iron chain, even though the wind was blowing across the cliff and the iron chain was shaking.
But everyone's bodies seemed to be stuck to the chains and could not fall off no matter what.
Several people walked quickly on the iron chain, making a "rustling" sound, and soon they passed by.
"Master, I'll be there first too."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly. Wang Zheng had been to the Tianshi Mansion more than once and was used to the cliff chains. He reached the other side very swiftly.
"Master Jiang, do you want it or not?" Lin Wan'er wanted to wave her hand to refuse, but a golden whip had already wrapped around her waist. The next moment, she only felt herself flying freely in the air.
She glanced down and felt a sense of weightlessness spread throughout her body. Her eyes went dark and she almost fainted.
Jiang Chen appeared on the opposite side in one step, and she was directly entangled by a long golden whip and swung in the air, experiencing a cliff bungee jumping on the spot.
By the time she landed, she still hadn't reacted.
"Isn't it coming?" Jiang Chen said with a smile, showing his two rows of white teeth.
The next moment, Lin Wan'er could no longer hold on and fainted.
Jiang Chen spread his hands helplessly and could only let Wang Zheng take her.
Half an hour later, everyone finally arrived at the Tianshi Mansion.
The main hall in the inner courtyard of Tianshi Mansion, with its white walls, black tiles, and upturned eaves, exudes a simple and elegant elegance. The walls are as white as snow, slightly mottled by the passage of time, adding a sense of historical vicissitudes.
The black tiles are neatly arranged, stacked like fish scales, shimmering with a warm luster under the sunlight. The high eaves are like a bird spreading its wings, light and agile, and also contain the Taoist spiritual connotation of pursuing freedom and transcendence.
In the courtyard, you can see towering ancient trees, as if you are in a secluded paradise.
As everyone walked into the gate of Tianshi Mansion, the first thing that came into view was the Patriarch Hall.
The one enshrined there is the ancestor Zhang Daoling. The incense burner in the ancestral hall is constantly burning, and the air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which makes people feel peaceful.
There were also several Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes, sitting cross-legged on the Taoist mat with piety, meditating.
Noticing someone entering the Patriarch's Hall, everyone slowly opened their eyes.
"Greetings to Master Zhang and the elders." These Taoists were wearing black robes and exuding the aura of a Class A cultivator. They were actually Class A cultivators.
The heritage of the Tianshi Mansion is indeed unfathomable.
"This is the head of the Demon Suppression Temple, Taoist Master Daoxuan!" Zhang Tianshi introduced.
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on him.
He stood there, his posture straight as a pine tree, and the majesty emanating from him was like a materialized strong wind, blowing coldly on people's faces. Everyone opened their lips slightly, stammering but unable to utter a single word.
I didn’t expect that Master Jiang actually came to the Tianshi Mansion.
The young man who hurried over had his eyes widened suddenly, his pupils filled with shock and respect, his former cleverness gone.
His chest rose and fell unconsciously, his breathing became a little rapid due to nervousness, and every breath he took seemed to be trying to calm the turbulent waves in his heart. He could only stand there blankly.
It took everyone a while to react.
"Meet Master Jiang!!"
"I didn't expect that Master Jiang would actually come to the Tianshi Mansion."
"Master Jiang looks even younger than he does in the video!"
Everyone was excited, and the silence in the ancestral hall was broken.
