Under One Person: One Person Goes

Chapter 364 Worshiping the Mountain
It was early that night. Jin Feng and Xia Liuqing had already gone to bed. Wang Yi and Zhang Zhiwei went up to the roof and looked at Longhu Mountain not far away.

Under the moonlight, you can see that Longhu Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist. At first glance, even if you don’t know the name of the mountain, you will feel that there are fairies in the mountain.

Zhang Zhiwei was still wearing a green Taoist robe, but there was a package beside him. He stood with his hands behind his back, feeling the night breeze, looking at the Longhu Mountain in front of him, where he was born and raised, with emotion.

"I didn't expect that I would come back in this way. Master is really furious this time. Old Wang, do you see what's going on?"

"It must be the Qi Bureau left by Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling. I remember that the place where he ascended to heaven was not in Longhu Mountain, but in Qingcheng Mountain in Shu."

"Yes, the place of ascension is Qingcheng Mountain, and the place of founding the religion is Longhu Mountain. There is no conflict. The dragon and tiger appear when the elixir is completed. This is not only an allusion, but also a treasure left by the old man to his descendants. Once it is opened, it can mobilize the flowing qi of Longhu Mountain to form a dragon and a tiger to protect the mountain gate and deal with the enemy.

In addition to the few people you circled out, including Huai Yi, there are others who will stop us on the mountain road tomorrow, totaling 108, which conforms to the number of Tian Gang Di Sha. The wandering people from the rivers and lakes and small sects that I called up before, they will also respond to the Zhou Tian Xingxiu and continuously provide true Qi blessings for these 108 people. "

Wang Yi was speechless after listening to Zhang Zhiwei's mysterious words.

"They say that having an old man in the family is like having a treasure. With you here, I have really learned a lot. There are such immortal relics in Longhu Mountain. Could it be that Master Sanfeng of Wudang Mountain also has a Zhenwu Seven-Section Formation or something like that? Why are you looking at me like that? It's not true, is it?!"

"I also heard Master mention that there is a mountain protection formation, but I don't know if it's called that. But that's all in the past. No matter how sophisticated and profound this mountain protection formation is, it relies on the Qi in the mountain and is operated by the people at the center of the formation. In the past, it was really a one-man-block pass. Now? It means we are the ones who are in the circle and we are going to break through the mountain. Otherwise, it's useless."

"Hey, even though you are now an abandoned disciple of the Tianshi Mansion, you should at least give your master some face. It's not like you won't come back in the future."

"The first thing I did when I got back was to modify this mountain protection formation from the inside out. What era is this? Why are people still using people as the center of the formation?"

"Why, have you seen a way to break the formation?"

"When I was still fighting guerrilla warfare here in the early years, I caught a man who was good at Feng Shui. After asking him, I found out that this guy had followed Sun Dianying before and dug up the imperial tombs of the Qing Dynasty, even the tomb of that old witch Cixi. You also know that the imperial tombs of all dynasties are basically a layered Feng Shui Qi situation. Once triggered, it is murderous at every step. This guy's master and fellow apprentices were all killed in it. In the end, guess how Sun Dianying broke the situation?"

"Let's fire the cannon and blast him."

"You also understand. The Eight Gates Moving and Four Plates Combining cannot deal with your people, let alone your mountain. People can walk on the mountain and fly. It was useful in the past because firearms were not well developed. Now, even without the Golden Light Curse and Thunder Magic, as long as one of the cores of the formation is destroyed, the mountain protection formation will go wrong. Just like the three levels of Reverse Life, the more sophisticated it is, the easier it is to have flaws."

After listening to Zhang Zhiwei's analysis, Wang Yi subconsciously opened the package that Zhang Zhiwei had placed aside, and then found two American-made Mark II series grenades from it.

"What? You, Boss Wang, are allowed to carry a gun, but you don't allow me, Zhang Zhiwei, to carry two grenades? Grenades are also thunder magic!"

"No, where did you get it from?"

"Those American soldiers in the Shanghai Concession taught him a breathing method to strengthen his body in exchange for two grenades. It's not a bad deal. Lao Wang, how about we make a deal?"

"explain."

"How about I lead the way on tomorrow's mountain climbing trip?"

"reason."

"When I was still in Tianshi Mansion, Master and a group of uncles and aunts were optimistic about me and thought I was the most likely to ascend to heaven after the founder, although I myself did not deny it. But after all, it has been almost two thousand years since the founder, and the founder's records have become distorted. Only this dragon-tiger formation can be regarded as a reflection of the founder's realm at that time. I want to test the founder's quality."

"It's something you would say, if you please."

"Thanks."

As they talked, the two of them decided on the order of climbing the mountain. As he spoke, Wang Yi raised his hand and grabbed behind him. Wu Gensheng, Wu Man, and Mr. Huang, who were eavesdropping in the corner behind them, were all pulled up by Wang Yi.

The divine spirit, which had the same effect as Wang Yi's magnetic field and true qi, was completely useless this time. Wu Gensheng was not ashamed of being dragged out by Wang Yi.

He took the wine and food on the small table and started eating, and also handed a portion to Mr. Huang.

"Boss Wang, we are in the same boat this time. I am willing to admit defeat, but now that we are here, why don't you be honest and tell me why you insisted on bringing me to Mount Longhu to participate in the Luotian Grand Ceremony? With your ability, you are not even as good as the old man Tianshi's Thunder Method."

"It's okay to tell you, I just want you to imitate Yao Guangxiao's old story of suppressing the rebellion. If you don't go to Longhu Mountain and use this Luotian Grand Ceremony to attack the famous and upright sects, it won't work."

As soon as these words were spoken, Wu Gensheng stopped drinking and eating, and his whole temperament changed. He looked at Wang Yi. Even Wu Man, who had always treated herself as a wooden man, looked at Wang Yi with a hint of murderous intent.

"Boss Wang, this joke is too much. Although Yao Guangxiao was the head of Quanxing in the past and asked Quanxing to follow Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty to quell the rebellion, he did not force them to do this. He just pointed out this path for the Quanxing disciples at that time, that's all."

"My move today is the same. I am using you, the acting head of Quanxing, to let Quanxing go back to its old ways. But there are also differences. In the past, when Fengtian Jingnan was in power, Quanxing helped Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty to seize the Ming Dynasty. He was so popular that those famous and righteous people who were watching from the sidelines had to behave themselves. This time, I am planning to drag these famous and righteous people into the water, and roll in the bloody water of the world together!

As for whether you all want to follow this old path, it is not up to you or your disciples to decide. Either you follow this path, or you will be cut off from the world. Literally, you will be cut off from the world."

"Donor, this is a bit arrogant."

Wu Man, who had been acting like a wooden man all the way, was finally moved by Wang Yi's words and spoke out in rebuttal.

But Wang Yi just glanced at him.

"Mr. Wu Man, you said I was arrogant. Let me ask you, you have done many things that were against the will of heaven and earth in order to achieve the state of emptiness of the five aggregates. Now that you have achieved it, looking back on the past, are there any things that you still regret?"

Wang Yi’s question left Wu Man silent, but she still answered.

"Have."

"What is it?"

"To escape from the aggregate of feeling, I killed my own children and my first wife. Now that I have realized that the five aggregates are empty, I still think about them all the time and want to see them."

"With all your sins and blood debts, are you qualified to meet your wife and children and apologize to them?"

"It doesn't matter whether I'm qualified or not. I've gone up the mountain and repaid my debt. Even if I can't see them and don't enter the cycle of reincarnation and suffer the torture of hell, I will still chant sutras and pray for them."

"Hmph, you make it sound so easy. You have a lot of blood debts. Even if you have paid back the blood debts of the Wang family, can you pay back the blood debts of others? Are you qualified to chant sutras and pray for your wife and children? Even Xia Liuqing, the fierce and vicious man, has killed so many people. He cultivated himself for the Golden Phoenix. Who can those innocent people who died because of him complain to?

Am I arrogant? Wu Gensheng can restrain you all for a while, can he restrain you for the rest of your life? If Wu Gensheng is gone in the future, you all will become a group of headless flies, causing endless harm, and how many innocent people will have to pay for your actions? Just based on these, whether it is a famous and upright sect or a Quan Xing demon, my king treats them all equally. Whoever harms others, I will kill him, whoever is useful, I will use him, whoever causes trouble, I will deal with him!
The five aggregates are empty, transcending great freedom, great freedom? Pah! You were born on this land, grew up on this land, the country is in crisis, the mountains and rivers are about to be broken, and your compatriots are suffering. You haven't even paid off the karma of this land, and you have the nerve to say in front of me that the five aggregates are empty? "

Wu Man's swaying attitude and regretful tone also made Wang Yi angry, and he started to scold her, leaving Wu Man speechless. Wu Gensheng was also frightened by Wang Yi's momentum. This was the only time he saw Wang Yi angry in the few times he met him.

Wang Yi's anger came and went quickly. After scolding Wu Man, he calmed down and turned to Wu Gensheng.

"Wu Gensheng, you took over the position of the head of Quanxing in order to find a way out for these headless flies. Today, I have made it clear to you that you can choose a way out for them now, to quell the crisis for the country and to gain some room for Quanxing in the future, and also for you. You have no choice, and Quanxing has no choice either, do you understand?"

“I’m just afraid they won’t listen to me completely.”

"Whether they listen or not is their business, and whether you do it or not is your business. Just do your best. This is why I brought you to Longhu Mountain and Luotian Dajiao to cause trouble. I want you to say this, and only you can say it."

"Wang Yi, you really do everything you can."

"For our circle, we have to use both this and this."

Pointing to his lips and clenched fists, Wang Yi accepted Wu Gensheng's praise.

Mr. Huang, who was like an unknown person and admired Wu Man's detachment but was afraid of death, was looking at Wang Yi, who was sitting with his back turned facing Longhu Mountain. In his mind, he was thinking about what Wang Yi had just said to Wu Man.

"You haven't even repaid the karma for this piece of land, and you have the nerve to tell me that the five aggregates are empty?"

My mind was twisted and I didn't know what I was thinking.

In such a bizarre atmosphere, Wang Yi and his party spent a day in the restaurant. At night, they had dinner, took a shower, packed their luggage, and checked out.

Wang Yi and Zhang Zhiwei brought Wu Gensheng and the others to the foot of Longhu Mountain and sat down on the ground.

They could see that the Qi flow in Mount Longhu, which was only one step away from them, was even more frequent. If they could barely see a glimpse of Mount Longhu amid the mist before, now it was just a mirage, a dreamland. It was only one step away from them, but it seemed like an insurmountable chasm.

Wang Yi understood that according to Zhang Zhiwei, this was a sign that Old Master Zhang and the high-level masters of Mount Longhu had completed the adjustment of the mountain protection Qi Bureau passed down from Grandmaster Zhang Daoling.

The 108 selected disciples from various schools and sects have all taken their positions, and the faint light in the clouds and mist shines in harmony with the stars in the sky.

"Lao Wang, just like we agreed before, I will lead the way at dawn. After a break, I can still see a beautiful view when I get up."

Without waiting for Wang Yi to answer, Zhang Zhiwei closed his eyes and began to adjust himself to the best state.

The same is true for Wang Yi.
-
On August 15, 1937, at Longhu Mountain, the sky was just getting bright at 7:00 p.m.

Wang Yi and Zhang Zhiwei, who had their eyes closed in meditation, also opened their eyes and saw this scene.

As the morning breeze blew, the clouds and mist that had shrouded Mount Longhu for a day and two nights dissipated, and where the clouds and mist met the mountain peaks, the images of dragons and tigers appeared and retreated into the mountains.

Following the dragon and tiger statues that escaped into the mountains, we could see that there was a person sitting on the ground along the mountain road.

When Wang Yi and Zhang Zhiwei's eyes turned over, they also met.

As the momentum collided, one could also hear the roars of dragons and tigers coming from Longhu Mountain.

When Zhang Zhiwei saw that his junior fellow apprentice Zhang Huaiyi was also among the thirty-six people, he smiled heartily and stood up first.

Wang Yi also noticed that under the green Taoist robe that Zhang Zhiwei was wearing today, there was another layer of clothes.

"Lao Zhang, what are you doing?"

"I prepared this to open my master's eyes. I'll lead the way."

After waving his hand to the king, Zhang Zhiwei stepped into Longhu Mountain, which he had not visited for many years.

"I am Zhang Zhiwei, and I have come to pay my respects to the Heavenly Master and my fellow Taoists at their invitation!"

The sound waves rolled and echoed endlessly.

The one who responded to Zhang Zhiwei's words was Zhang Huaiyi, who was in charge of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dragon Formation.

"Zhang Zhiwei, the Heavenly Master has given an order."

"Master Taoist, please speak."

"Although you are an abandoned disciple of the Tianshi Mansion, your visit to the mountain today is in accordance with the rules of the martial arts world. The Tianshi Mansion will not deceive you. In this dragon formation, you can use the methods of the Tianshi Mansion as much as you want."

"In that case, I, Zhang Zhiwei, would like to thank the Heavenly Master in advance!"

Zhang Zhiwei's voice was loud, and he looked like he had taken advantage of someone, which made Old Zhang Tianshi, who was watching his unfilial disciple from afar on the mountain, very angry.

You used the Golden Light Mantra and Thunder Method you learned from Zhang Daoling to break through the Mountain Protection Qi Bureau that Zhang Daoling left for Mount Longhu? Do you still think you've made a profit?
"This evil!"

As for Old Master Zhang's anger, the fellow high-ranking monks and fellow Taoists nearby could only watch with their eyes on the nose and their noses on their hearts, turning a blind eye.

At the foot of the mountain, Zhang Zhiwei and Zhang Huaiyi looked at each other and chanted the Golden Light Mantra.

"The Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth, the root of all Qi, cultivates the great calamity, proves my supernatural power..."

The brothers went up and down, possessed by golden light and surrounded by lightning.

Zhang Zhiwei put one hand behind his back and waved to Zhang Huaiyi in front of him.

"Come, Taoist Huaiyi, we haven't seen each other for many years. Let me see if you still have the edge~"
