Big man

The Donghua Dijun Temple looks dilapidated, but the original builders were not sloppy, and the area was not too small. The main hall, side hall and wing rooms are all available. .Although it is ruined, the basic structure of the temple is still there, very clear.

Why the ancients built a Donghua Emperor Temple in this wilderness many years ago is no longer possible to test.Xiao Fan is not an archaeologist, so he didn't plan to find out the reason.

Many things in religion are difficult to explain with secular reasons.

Xiao Fan walked into Donghua Emperor Temple slowly.

The devouring force became more and more restless, tumbling, just wanting to get into Xiao Fan's body.Xiao Fan's whole body was full of righteousness, blocking the strange devouring power from outside.Focusing on observing the expressions of the other people, except for Yuan Qianqian's slight discomfort, the others didn't have much abnormal reaction.

It seems that this devouring power only "strikes" the strongest, why this happens, arouses Xiao Fan's curiosity even more.

The main hall is very dilapidated, and the statue of Emperor Donghua is still standing there, but it is covered with spiders, "unkempt", and the golden paint is peeling off.

Xiao Fan stepped forward slowly and bowed in salute.

Although the Promise Gate is not an authentic Taoist inheritance, it does not neglect the "gods" of Taoism.According to the legend, Dongfang Shuo is a disciple of Emperor Donghua, but Dongfang Shuo is a solidly respected senior in Wuji Sect. He has a close relationship with the ancestor of Wuji Sect. It is said that they often discuss skills together.All these anecdotes are recorded in "Wuji Shu Zang".

Seeing Xiao Fan's seriousness, Yuan Qianqian and others who were looking around held their breaths and bowed to the statue of Emperor Donghua.

Yuan Qianqian even murmured a prayer: "Old Immortal, you are a big man, don't argue with me... I know you shouldn't dig your underground palace, but that's what our Rouge Society does, and you can't do it without digging... Thank you very much." Forgive me..."

Naturally, the sound was like a mosquito, inaudible.

Xiao Fan had superb internal skills, and he was standing relatively close to her. After hearing a few words, he couldn't help laughing secretly.

The little girl's words of prayer can be described as quite unique. With Yuan Qianqian's personality, it is a great thing to be able to "bow her head and admit her mistake" to Emperor Donghua. From this, it can be seen that Yuan Qianqian has really changed in the depths of her heart. .

After paying homage to the god of Emperor Donghua, Xiao Fan did not rush to set up the formation, but carefully surveyed the layout of the temple.Although there are only ruins left, it can still be seen that the Donghua Emperor Temple still maintains the characteristics of a long time ago.

Xiao Fan suddenly shook his head lightly.

Ji Qingsha, who had been silently watching him, asked softly: "Young Master, what's the matter? Did you find anything?"

Xiao Fan said: "This temple was not built in the Han Dynasty, the architectural style is wrong, and it does not have the characteristics of temple architecture in the Han Dynasty."

Ji Qingsha couldn't help being stunned, she turned her head to look at Yuan Qianqian: "Qianqian?"

When it comes to antiques, Ji Qingsha is not a layman. Although she is not a major in archaeology, nor is she a professional collector, she has a relatively rich collection at home, and she has a certain attainment in the identification of antiques.It's just the identification of antiques and ancient buildings, that's not the same thing.

In this regard, Yuan Qianqian and Rouge Society are naturally experts.

Without this knowledge, how can the Rouge Society become the largest tomb robbery gang in the north?

Yuan Qianqian smiled and said: "The temple is not from the Han Dynasty, but the foundation is from the Han Dynasty. The floor bricks for the footing must be Han bricks, there is no doubt about it. The underground palace was also built in the Han Dynasty. Whether it is the architectural style or the construction of the underground palace The blue bricks are all typical styles of Han bricks. Not only do they have the common rhombus pattern of Han bricks, but also rare money-making patterns. I reckon that the temple was built by later generations. This temple was specially built on top of the underground palace It’s still a coincidence that it happens to be built on top of the underground palace, so it’s hard to draw conclusions...I’m not an archaeologist.”

I am a grave robber.

Who built this temple and why it was built, I don't care, I just care if there are any good things in the underground palace that are worth my shot.

"One young man, is this Fengshui killing formation built by the people of the Han Dynasty, or by later generations?"

Ji Qingsha frowned slightly and asked.

Xiao Fan smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Ji, this is a test for me. I'm really not too clear about this."

To verify the "year" of Fengshui killing array, it is a bit difficult for others.Even though Xiao Fan is a top artisan, he is not a god after all.

Ji Qingsha couldn't help laughing, stretched out her hand to stroke a strand of black hair hanging from her ear, and said, "I asked the wrong question."

But Xiao Fan pondered again and said: "After the devouring evil spirit here has been dissipated, if we can find the magic weapon used to set up the array back then, maybe we can see some clues."

Yuan Qianqian said strangely: "Which dynasty built the Fengshui killing array? Does it matter? We have to find out?"

She knows a little bit about geomantic omen, fortune-telling and other techniques, but at most it's just superficial. In her opinion, is it necessary to understand these?Could there be any unexpected gains from this?You can't bring out that ancient man who died for an unknown number of years, right?

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "It's not necessary to figure it out, but if you can figure it out, maybe there are some benefits."

"what is the benefit?"

Yuan Qianqian immediately began to get to the bottom of it.

She is really a research girl.Perhaps Yuan Qianqian wanted to deepen her understanding of Xiao Fan through further understanding of the spells, and now she urgently needs to know everything about Xiao Fan.

Facing the silent Xin Lin, Yuan Qianqian always had an extremely deep sense of urgency.Her "competition" with Xin Lin was not on the same starting line.Before she knew Xiao Fan, Sister Xin and Xiao Fan had lived in the same room for three or four years. Getting along day and night for more than 1000 days is enough to cultivate a deep relationship.

Compared with Xin Lin, Yuan Qianqian's only "advantage" now may be the experience last night.She had already faced Xiao Fan frankly. Although nothing out of the ordinary happened, it made Yuan Qianqian feel full of "capital".

I'm "relying" on you, what the hell!

Even so, Yuan Qianqian is still unwilling to let go of any opportunity to learn more about Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan smiled without saying a word.

It's not that Xiao Fan is not willing to answer Yuan Qianqian's question. In fact, it's hard to explain this situation clearly in a few words. "Wuji Shu Zang" is very long. Although "Wuji Nine Phases" is the core and foundation of the entire Shu Zang, in fact, "Wu Ji Shu Zang" can be regarded as a "Brief History of the Development of Chinese National Art".

The past dynasties of the Promise Sect and the senior masters have recorded the development of spells and the general environment in their era.Many of these records seem to be very simple and highly generalized, perhaps "unexplained", but they are very objective and refined.For example, the four "Buddha extermination incidents" in history can basically be regarded as Taoism, and Confucianism assisted the imperial power in destroying Buddhism.Some magic masters played a very important role in these events.

For example, Shizong's extermination of Buddhism in the later Zhou Dynasty has a certain relationship with Chen Tuan, the patriarch of Tunan Zhenxi Yi.

Patriarch Chen Tuan is the founder of Ziwei Doushu, a great figure in Taoism.

Another example is the "Destruction of the Four Old Movements" that occurred in China a few years ago and the ensuing catastrophe, which also had a great impact on the development of magic techniques. Both Patriarch Zhishui and Grandpa Wen Er wrote special articles , describing the various situations that restricted the development of art in those two or thirty years, all of which are included in the appendix of "Wuji Shu Zang".

In addition, "Wuji Shu Zang" also records the development of other schools of magic.In history, many masters of magic have a very high status in "Wuji Shu Zang", although these masters of magic are not the inheritance of Wuji sect.For example, "Wuji Shuzang" respectfully calls Chen Tuan the Patriarch of Xiyi, and Yuan Tiangang as "Yuan Zu" or "Volcano Patriarch".It was named because Yuan Tiangang served as the volcanic commander in the early Tang Dynasty.

If Xiao Fan can find out which dynasty's master of magic arts this Fengshui killing array came from through the array of magic tools, maybe he can use this to deduce some previously unknown knowledge of magic skills.

The inside story is relatively complicated, and there is not much certainty. Yuan Qianqian is not a fellow, so Xiao Fan didn't explain it to her.Of course, this is also because Yuan Qianqian's current status in Xiao Fan's heart is not as good as Xin Lin's.If it was Xin Lin who asked, Xiao Fan would definitely explain it clearly to her.

"Let's start setting up."

Xiao Fan said to Ji Qingsha.

Ji Qingsha nodded, but then asked: "Young Master, why don't you go down to the underground palace and set up formations instead of setting up formations in the temple?"

Through the ruins of the temple, one can already see the entrance of the underground palace in the backyard of the temple, next to fresh loess, the soil dug out by Yuan Qianqian and the others when they excavated the underground palace.

Ji Qingsha vaguely sensed that the Fengshui killing array of the predecessors was arranged in the underground palace. To break this formation, it is more appropriate, more direct and more effective to set up the formation in the underground palace.

Xiao Fan said: "We set up a guiding formation, not a suppressing formation, so there is no need to go to the underground palace to set it up. The underground palace is relatively cramped, and it is difficult to draw out the evil spirits that swallow it. Forcibly deploying the formation inside the underground palace will not be effective. .This temple is built right above the underground palace, the terrain is relatively open, and the formation in the temple will have a better effect."

Ji Qingsha smiled sweetly, and said: "Okay, everything is under the arrangement of Young Master Yi, and I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Ji Qingsha is proficient in spells, but she can also know that Xiao Fan's attainments in spells are more advanced than her own, and everything can be based on Xiao Fan's opinion.

Yuan Qianqian frowned slightly, and stared at Ji Qingsha secretly.

Ji Qingsha's words just now sounded so delicate. Although Yuan Qianqian is also a beautiful woman, she seems to be able to feel a certain kind of extremely seductive ambiguity from Ji Qingsha's words.

A single Xin Lin has already caused Yuan Da's head a headache, and he is not even half sure of "winning the battle". If Ji Qingsha is added to this, how should he deal with it? (To be continued.)
