That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 1298 Going to Xuandu Alone
In a sense, Daomen and Jianzong are actually two melons growing from one vine.

There are 36 islands in Jianzong, and nine peaks in Daomen. There are 36 island owners on the 36 islands, and nine peak owners on the nine peaks.

Jianzong has Biyou Island, and Daomen has Dutian Peak.On Biyou Island, there is the suzerain of the Sword Sect and many palaces, and on Dutian Peak, there are also Taoist masters and many palaces.

There is a lotus town under the lotus peak, and there is a Linxian mansion under the Dutian peak.

All forms and structures are similar.

The only difference is that there is a Zixiao Palace on the Tianfeng Peak of the Taoist capital, while Jianzong can only build a suzerain residence, and does not dare to compare with the Zixiao Palace.

Because Zixiao Palace is the place where Taoist ancestors preached, and it is also the place where Taoist ancestors lived.

In any case, when Daoist Lord Shangqing rebelled against the Daoist sect, it was not Daozu who rebelled, but Daoist Yuqing. From the beginning to the end, Daoist Lord Shangqing thought that he was a disciple of Daozu, and he never had the slightest intention of disobedience.

So at this point, the Taoist sect is indeed unique, inheriting most of the mantle of the Taoist ancestor.

Today's Zixiao Palace has become the residence of the past dynasties of the Taoist sect, similar to the emperor's bedroom in the secular world, and idlers are not allowed to enter.

In the first year of Jingyu, according to the chronology of Taoism, it should be 55 years, and the number of days is Qiuye's year name, which means that Qiuye, the real Taoist head teacher, has been on the position of head teacher for 55 years.

55 times of spring and autumn, 55 times of cold and heat, 55 times of flowers blooming and withering.

It has been 55 years since Qiu Ye ascended to the Taoist sect and moved into Zixiao Palace. From the first year of Huanglong to the first year of Jingyu, from his old friend Xiao Yu to his junior Xiao Zhinan, he has experienced four generations of emperors in the secular world. .After 20 years in Taiping, he never left Dutian Peak, and even seldom left Zixiao Palace. After going out of the palace, he took a yellow crane and left Xuandu. He first went to Jieshi on the coast of the East China Sea, where he met a pair of old and young masters and apprentices, and then went to Wei State, where he met his father at the Ye family's ancestral house. Sister and nephew, he finally went to Biyou Island, climbed the Lotus Peak, and killed an enemy and friend.

Then he returned to Xuandu and began to retreat in Zixiao Palace again, but after that, the tranquility above Xuandu was broken, and he had to go out of Zixiao Palace again and again to go to Yuqing Palace Discussing matters, and even going out as a clone, fighting with Xiao Yu and Xu Beiyou.

Until today, he will leave Xuandu again and go to Biyou Island again.

The first day of April is not a good day to go to the grave, because it was on this day that Emperor Shenzong of Zheng died in the coup of Emperor Wuzu and Emperor Taizu of Daqi when he went to the Taimiao to worship his ancestors.

But this day is a good day to go out, because it was on this day that Qiuye's master, Master Zichen, came out of the Zixiao Palace, and after worshiping the ancestors in the Patriarch Hall, he rode a dragon down the mountain, similar to that at that time. Shangguan Xianchen, the suzerain of the Sword Sect, fought fiercely in today's imperial capital and won a complete victory.

Qiu Ye in a purple robe left Zixiao Palace, descended 99 steps, and walked straight towards the edge of Tianchi.

An old Taoist with white hair and white beard seemed to have already calculated that the master teacher would leave the customs today, so he stood here early, waiting for the master teacher to come.

After Qiuye approached, she stopped, looked at the old Taoist, and said with emotion: "Uncle Qingchen, I don't know if you and I will meet again in the future."

Qingchen said in a deep voice: "Naturally."

Qiu Ye smiled casually, "Then I have to borrow the good words from Uncle Wu Chen."

The Tianchi beside the two of them was sparkling, and there was a huge shadow flowing under it.

The real person who governs the orthodox Taoist sect sighed softly, and said, "Last time I stood here, and the person next to me was Murong. The two of us talked about Gongsun Zhongmou here, and we also talked about Gongsun Zhongmou by the way. The newly recruited disciple Xu Beiyou. Murong said at the time that the child was just a middle-aged person, so there was nothing to worry about. I said that may not be the case. Looking at it now, it made me understand the words. Who would have thought back then that the two of us would be together today? He was forced into a near-desperate situation by this middle-aged child."

Qingchen kept sighing.

Qiu Ye stood beside Tianchi with her hands behind her back, overlooking the blue waves rolling under her feet.

A huge black shadow meanders at the bottom of the pool.

The next moment, the shadow suddenly expanded, the originally calm water surface exploded, and the sound rumbled like an avalanche.Immediately afterwards, thousands of waves rolled up on the water surface of Tianchi, and the water splashed lightly, like a drizzle.

A huge dragon head sticks out of the water indifferently, with horns like a deer, head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, neck like a snake, belly like a mirage, scales like a fish, claws like an eagle, palms like a tiger, and ears like a cow.

The two dragon whiskers swayed leisurely, like spirituality, gently touching the autumn leaves.

Qiu Ye smiled, stretched out her hand to brush away the dragon beard, looked at the golden pupils that were almost as tall as her, and said, "You don't have to go."

A very humane look of indignation and dissatisfaction appeared in the huge golden pupils.

But Qiuye still shook his head firmly and said: "You stay in the sect and protect the sect."

What responded to Qiuye was a deep dragon moan.

When Daozu was alive, he left two dragons guarding the gate of Daomen, one male and one female. Hundreds of years later, these two dragons turned into heavenly dragons and flew away, leaving only one son in the world, which is the one in front of Qiu Ye. A dragon.Many older monks still remember that when the master of the Sword Sect, Shangguan Xianchen, stepped into the Eastern Capital with thousands of flying swords, he attracted the Taoist head teacher at that time, Zichen, to ride a dragon down the mountain. The dragon that Zichen was riding at that time was it.

It takes Tianchi as its home, and follows the Taoist masters of the past generations to practice. Now it is only one step away from Tianlong. If it occupies Tianchi, it will have the power to fight against the living immortals above the eighteenth floor.

If Qiuye took it to Lotus Peak, it would increase the odds of winning by three points, but after this battle, this dragon that had guarded the Daomen for many years would definitely die, by Xu Beiyou's sword.

One wrong step, one wrong step, but not one wrong step to the end.

Qiu Ye didn't want to cause the Taoist sect to suffer more damage because of his own life and death, so he insisted on letting it stay in the Taoist sect.

Seeing Qiuye's resolute expression, Jiaolong slowly retreated back into the Tianchi.

Qingchen said in a deep voice: "Since the head teacher has made up his mind, then Qingchen will send the head teacher down here respectfully!"

As soon as Qiu Ye stretched out her hand, a silver silk whisk flew into her hand, she swayed the whisk lightly, and said with a smile, "Cultivate Taoism in Zixiao Palace for one year, and you can cultivate the word "longevity."

As the dust whisk swayed, a misty purple air surged in the sky, and then the purple air became more and more intense, until finally it seemed to be substantial.

Countless Taoist disciples knelt down and said respectfully: "Respectfully send Master Master down the mountain."

On this day, Qiuye did not ride a dragon like her master did back then, nor did she ride a crane like she did last time, but went down to Xuandu alone.
