I changed the world

However, in fact, in the past, Zhang Sicheng was not happy with the story of this "Fox Fairy". Because the Tianshi Mansion has always been the leader of Xuanmen, what kind of thing is it to worship such a wild god like a wild god in a rural temple? What's going on?

To describe Zhang Sicheng's mentality at the time in a more down-to-earth way, he felt that this kind of behavior was "too low-level."

After all, there has been a voice in China that the Western Holy Enlightenment has developed a highly complete theoretical system in the process of integrating the theological system and the philosophical system.Relatively speaking, many aspects of the Taoist system are still in a relatively "primitive" state, and are not as competitive as Western monotheistic religions.

Zhang Sicheng actually thought the same way at that time. Secretly, he was happy to see the emergence of ideological trends such as "New Xuanmen" and even thought about promoting Xuanmen to carry out certain reforms.

Under such circumstances, he would naturally not be too cold about the act of offering sacrifices to the "Fox Fairy".I just feel that it is the "dross" left by my ancestors.But he couldn't really sweep it into the trash, so he could only keep it out of sight. On weekdays, he rarely stopped here.

However, it wasn't until he went to Zhe Bifeng that he realized... he was wrong!All wrong!

Therefore, after returning from Zhebi Peak, Belgoperi's delegation left, and things regarding Beacon Castle seemed to have come to an end, he came here immediately.

The middle hall was somewhat similar to the shape of a temple, with a clay sculpture of a fox fairy enshrined in it. Zhang Sicheng took a look at this place. Fortunately, although it was not taken seriously, it was cleaned diligently on weekdays and offered candles constantly.

Zhang Sicheng took three sandalwood sticks from the side, lit them, and saluted. He then held the incense in his right hand, took one with the thumb and middle finger of his left hand, and inserted it in the center of the incense burner in front of the clay sculpture. Then he took another one with his left hand and inserted it on the left side of the incense burner. The last one is inserted in the left hand on the right side of the incense burner.

This is the Three Pure Secrets. As a Heavenly Master, it is impossible for him to kneel down and worship.

After that, he went around to the back hall, where there was an ancient painting enshrined on the wall. On the painting, a middle-aged woman with a kind face and a round robe wearing a brocade robe was sitting leisurely under a tree.

This ancient painting has been hanging here since Zhang Sicheng could remember. It is said that what is painted on it is the true appearance of the fox fairy, and it has a history of hundreds of years.Previously, this ancient painting was worshiped in the Fox Fairy Hall. It was not until the fifth generation of heavenly masters presided over the construction of the clay sculpture that the ancient painting was moved to the back hall.

Zhang Sicheng first observed the ancient painting, and after a slight hesitation, he solemnly bowed his head and said: "Junior, the third generation direct descendant of the ancestral Celestial Master No. 60, the current Celestial Master, Zhang Sicheng, please see Senior Hu. "

This was what his uncle told him when he went to Zhe Bifeng last time. If not for this, Zhang Sicheng would not have known that there was such a mystery in the Fox Immortal Hall after living in this mansion for decades...

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman on the ancient painting suddenly came to life. Then, the head of the woman in the painting turned around and looked in the direction of Zhang Sicheng.

In Zhang Sicheng's eyes, everything in the painting seemed to start to magnify at this moment, and the distance between the painting paper and himself began to shrink rapidly. He didn't know whether everything in the painting was starting to move towards him, or whether he was moving towards the painting. Go to Bank of China...

In short, it was a trance. Zhang Sicheng suddenly found that he had appeared by a sparkling lake. At his feet was a green lawn dotted with some unknown flowers. Not far away there was a canopy-like plant. An ordinary old tree, with a stone table under the tree and several stone benches beside the stone table. On one of them, a graceful woman was sitting, and behind the woman stood two maids.

Only then did Zhang Sicheng realize that he had actually arrived in that painting!He subconsciously looked back, but there was no sign of Fox Immortal Hall...

He turned around and calmed down. Fortunately, he was mentally prepared for everything. He secretly said that what his uncle said was indeed true!

Then, the woman beside the stone table is the rightful owner I am looking for today!

Zhang Sicheng immediately raised his legs and walked towards the stone table not far away...

At this time, when the woman beside the stone table saw Zhang Sicheng approaching, she stood up with a smile. When Zhang Sicheng came closer, she bowed to Zhang Sicheng and said, "I have seen the contemporary Celestial Master, Celestial Master. When the master comes, it is difficult to welcome him from afar."

"Senior Hu, you are polite. This junior has never come to bother senior since he succeeded to the throne. It is really rude..." Zhang Sicheng said in a respectful manner.

"What are you talking about, Master Tian? Come, please take a seat."

Zhang Sicheng did not refuse. As soon as the guests and hosts took their seats, Hu Yuanji asked the maid on the side to serve melons and fruits. Zhang Sicheng tasted one and felt that his mouth was filled with saliva. It was surprisingly delicious.

"I'm ashamed to say it. If Chu Bifeng's uncle hadn't told him, I wouldn't have known that my senior was here." Zhang Sicheng sighed.

"But the real person Chixu who guards Chu Bifeng's forbidden area?" Hu Yuanji said solemnly when she heard this.

"Exactly."

"The real person Chixu has great supernatural powers and has a long history with the Tianshi Mansion. The Tianshi should be close to him." Although Hu Yuanji treated Zhang Sicheng with courtesy, she also wanted to get close and give him some advice.

Chapter 684

Zhang Sicheng could feel it, and he knew clearly after thinking about it that the person in front of him had experienced dozens of heavenly masters in the Tianshi Mansion, and he was like a Baojiaxian.Although he respected Zhang Sicheng as a heavenly master, in reality, it was more like looking at him as being close to a junior.

"The younger generation wishes to be taught, and this is the way to go." After understanding this, Zhang Sicheng expressed his gratitude again.Afterwards, he took the initiative to talk about the sudden death of the previous Celestial Master and the rush to take over the throne, which also brought about some key secrets in the Celestial Master's Mansion that had not yet been handed over...

It also implicitly indicates that I was not being treated lightly before, but I really don’t know...

Hu Yuanji listened carefully, and then sighed: "I do know some cause and effect, but it's just limited to rules. The Heavenly Master didn't come before, so it was inconvenient for me to see each other. Fortunately, the Heavenly Master is here after all..."

"I also know the purpose of the Heavenly Master's coming here. Back then, No. 30 Third Heavenly Master Zhang Gong was kind to me, so I had to take refuge in the Heavenly Master's Mansion to practice. In the blink of an eye, it has been a thousand years..."

As she spoke, she sighed longingly as if she was nostalgic. After a while, she took out a jade ornament from her arms and handed it over: "For thousands of years, the heavenly masters of all dynasties have kept the tokens from me and never dared to lose them. Today, I will hand over this token." Give it to the Heavenly Master. After the Heavenly Master uses it, he will return it to me for safekeeping."

"That's natural. Thank you so much, Senior Hu!" Zhang Sicheng solemnly took the jade jue, put it away, and handed it over as a gift.

..................................................................

Outside the stone door of the middle hall, Zhang Lianchuan was waiting there, his mind wandering.

Suddenly, the closed wooden door on the side was pushed open from the inside, and Zhang Sicheng walked out.

"Father, is everything going well?" Seeing his father open the door and come out, Zhang Lianchuan immediately stepped forward. Although he didn't know why his father mobilized the troops, he also knew after that day that his Zhang family in Danding Mountain was really It's a bit secretive. My father must have something important to do on this trip to hide it from others.

Zhang Sicheng glanced at his son, frowned and said, "Whenever big things happen, you have to be calm. You are already in prison. You can't let go of the time to nourish your energy."

"What the father said is that the child remembers it."

Zhang Sicheng nodded, said no more, and led his son through the corridor and towards the back hall...

..................................................................

After passing through the back hall, we came to the back garden. The back garden is called a garden, but it is actually a very large garden, and there is even a small lake in it.Both father and son grew up here and were very familiar with the roads in the back garden. At night, they used the night lights installed in the back garden to follow the paved road towards the lake in the center of the garden.

The father and son didn't know it. At this moment, in the shadows not far from them, there was an invisible figure standing there, watching their every move. This was Zhang Jing's ghost, facing the current situation. In this case, Yin Shen completely ignores the characteristics of environmental isolation, which is much more convenient than the physical body. As ordinary people, neither Zhang Sicheng nor Zhang Lianchuan can see the existence of Yin Shen at all.

Of course, all of today's events will not happen for no reason. Zhang Jing had already made a wish in his wishing book when a series of changes occurred at Zhe Bifeng:

"I make a wish that there is an undiscovered secret underground palace under the Dazhen Mansion in Danding Mountain. The underground palace was built by the previous generation of heavenly masters. Later, due to some reasons, no one knew about its existence and it was lost and dusted.

The wish has been fulfilled.

Deduct 15000 wish points. "(This wish appeared in the previous series of incidents in Zhe Bifeng. I wonder if any readers have noticed it?)

Relying on the power of the wish book, Zhang Jing successfully found a closed underground palace under the Tianshi Mansion. This underground palace was probably built by a certain Tianshi Master for emergencies. There is a secret passage leading to the outside of the Tianshi Mansion. In the dense forest, the exit is also extremely hidden.Thinking about it, for the big family, this is also a way to be prepared for danger in times of peace. In the event of an accident, the Celestial Master and his family can escape through the secret passage.

It is conceivable that such an underground palace and secret passage must be extremely confidential. Zhang Jing even found some skeletons enclosed in the underground palace. Looking at their clothes, he guessed that they might be the corpses of the craftsmen who built the underground palace. It seems that even the famous Celestial Master clan also has some shameful darkness in its history.

However, just as he made a wish in the wish book, this underground palace has obviously been ignored for a long time. It is the kind of place that even the contemporary heavenly masters no longer understand its existence.

This is also easy to understand. There are only a few people who know about such secret passages. If something unexpected happens to the insiders over hundreds of years and there is no time to hand it over, then the secret becomes a permanent secret. Together with the insiders, Stuck in the dust of history...

Now it is Zhang Jing who has rediscovered this underground palace from the dust of history with the help of the wish letter.Of course, today's underground palace is no longer what it was originally. Zhang Jing has made some changes to it. Now, just waiting for Zhang Sicheng and his son to reopen it...

The lake in the back garden is called Bagua Lake. It is an artificial lake and got its name because it was shaped like Bagua when it was dug.

Zhang Sicheng and Zhang Lianchuan walked quickly along the lake shore. Since returning from Zhe Bifeng, Zhang Sicheng's energy and energy have become much stronger. In the past, he was senile and needed help when he walked longer. At this time, even if I walk quickly, I don't feel out of breath at all.

The father and son walked in tandem for nearly a quarter of an hour. Finally, Zhang Sicheng came to a stone carving of a camel monument and stopped.

This ancient and ancient monument can be seen by anyone who doesn't know how to identify it. It is said that this stele was erected here when the Tianshi Mansion was first established. It has Hetu Luoshu engraved on it. shape.Whenever distinguished guests from the Tianshi Mansion come here to visit, they usually introduce it to them. This is the No. 30 third generation Tianshi Zhang Jingting who built the lake according to the shape of the river and Luo. Therefore, he erected a monument next to the lake out of thin air. This makes this artificial lake a bit more mysterious.

But neither Zhang Sicheng nor Zhang Lianchuan, who had lived here for more than ten years, had never felt that there was anything extraordinary about this statue of a camel.Even the father and son had the experience of climbing this mountain when they were young and playing...

Zhang Sicheng first slowly looked at the strange and familiar building in his memory, but at this time, it seemed a little strange. Then he carefully looked around to make sure that no one was looking around. After that, he saw him moving his hand towards That biting mouth went in...

Chapter 685: Powerful!

Sure enough, he felt a hole in Bixi's throat. Zhang Sicheng hurriedly withdrew his hand and took out the Yujue from the fox fairy in his pocket. He touched the hole again and felt the hole at the bottom of the hole. A groove seemed to fit the jade jue, so he pressed the jade jue in...

Immediately, he saw the fog rising around him. In a few breaths, the gray mist was already rising around the lake.

"Father, look there..." In the diffuse fog, Zhang Lianchuan stared at his surroundings with wide eyes. Soon, he pointed to a statue of a strong man not far away.

The age of this statue is similar to the one by the lake. It is said that it was left behind when the Tianshi Mansion was built. The sculpture is of a warrior with a prominent chest and belly. There are two statues in total, both of which are more than three meters tall. High, facing each other.Some say it is a Dharma protector, and some say it is a heavenly spiritual official. Previously, it was generally said that it was used to protect the Dharma in the Tianshi Mansion.

But at this moment, in the widened eyes of the father and son, the two statues suddenly came to life, and they saw that the moss, soil and other attachments caused by the erosion of time on their bodies peeled off one after another, and the two statues Moving their hands and feet, their movements were a little stiff at first, but then they became flexible. Then, they were seen bowing to where Zhang Sicheng was. Then, in the hazy mist, two stone statue warriors walked towards In front of a rockery not far away, two "people" each held one end of the rockery. Then, they heard a dull sound. Zhang Sicheng and his son felt that the ground beneath their feet shook for a moment.

Then, in their shocked eyes, the huge rockery, which was three to four meters high and weighed at least ten tons, was pulled up from the ground and carried by two strong men!

This is the real strength of the mountains!

At this moment, both Zhang Sicheng and Zhang Lianchuan had a thought in their minds: It turns out that there are so many secrets hidden in the Tianshi Mansion... I don't know how I was so blind before that I actually thought that my ancestors were all... Made a fortune by fooling people...

Yes, the father and son really thought this deep down in their hearts before. In the eyes of outsiders, the mysterious Tianshi Mansion in Danding Mountain, the first family in Jiangnan with a history of 2000 years, was really in the world like them. From the perspective of the core people, there is no secret at all, only the paleness wrapped behind layers of complex rituals and mysterious rhetoric.

But now, they already know that there is no luck in inheriting it since 2000!If there were no real materials, I am afraid it would have been lost in the long river of history!

All because seeing is believing!

"Celestial Master, please move..." A booming voice sounded. A strongman held the rockery on his shoulder with one hand and made a gesture of invitation with the other hand. At this time, Zhang Sicheng noticed that there Next to the strong man's feet, under the uprooted rockery, there was actually a hidden entrance to the passage!

Zhang Sicheng looked back at his son and nodded to him: "You stay here and don't let anyone get close to here."

Zhang Lianchuan was full of curiosity at this time. He actually wanted to say that the child also wanted to go in and have a look...

But under the prestige, he didn't dare to do it. He just promised obediently: "I understand, my father, be careful all the way."

Zhang Sicheng nodded with satisfaction and walked forward. When he came to the entrance of the passage, he subconsciously looked at the two strongmen beside him who were holding the mountain-carrying posture and the mountain that was carried on their shoulders. The heavy rockery hanging above my head made me feel a little weak.

If either of these two people is not sure, I am afraid that my contemporary Celestial Master will immediately ascend on the spot...

However, at this moment, he didn't have much to say, he just made a calm expression and walked towards the passage.

This passage was previously completely hidden under the rockery. It was a corridor that sloped downwards. Judging from the direction of the corridor, it extended to the bottom of Bagua Lake. It is no wonder that Tianshi Mansion has undergone many renovations in modern times and has not discovered this passage. It is a mysterious place, because during the previous construction, Bagua Lake was not re-excavated. At most, the surrounding vegetation was only modified to a certain extent, and that was all.

Zhang Sicheng took out a flashlight, held it in his hand, turned on the light, and walked straight down the corridor.The corridor was deep, but not high. It was only about a head higher than when he was standing upright. The four walls were made of stone slabs. It could be seen that the stone slabs had gone through a long period of time. They were gloomy and had water stains in some places.

The stone slabs are carved with various patterns of cranes, clouds, boys, fairies, Tai Chi, Bagua and other patterns with Taoist religious significance.

Zhang Sicheng walked forward and downward along the stone path, and walked forward for several tens of meters. He felt that the dampness was getting thicker. Zhang Sicheng guessed that he had reached the bottom of Bagua Lake, and continued walking forward. After walking a long distance, Zhang Sicheng saw that the corridor in front of him began to open up. Soon, a square stone chamber appeared in the corridor in front of him. The stone chamber was not big, about four meters square, and there were corridors connecting both ends, like A "中" character.

There was a stele in the stone chamber. Zhang Sicheng shined his flashlight on the stele and saw a line written on it: "Anyone who enters this place who is not a direct descendant of the Heavenly Master will die."

Seeing this, Zhang Sicheng became more cautious, slowed down his pace, and continued to walk towards the inside...

After walking forward for some distance, Zhang Sicheng saw a stone wall in front of him. This stone wall was entirely made of stone bricks and decorated in the style of a palace. The eaves extended forward, and the purlins and beams on the roof were complete. There are flying rafters, corridors, and even thick wooden columns. The entire structure stretches forward, as if there is a building embedded in the brick wall.

There are several thick wooden corridor pillars that have not decayed after countless years underground. Between these pillars, a lifelike huge stone door is carved in the middle of the stone wall. The stone door opens to the opposite side and is carved with copper nails. , pull the ring.

On both sides of the stone gate are painted two divine guardian generals with stern faces, wearing helmets and armor, staring ahead.

Is that...the door god?

When Zhang Sicheng first saw the two painted god generals, he subconsciously thought they were two door gods. After all, the custom of sticking to door gods is quite common in Dazhao. However, he soon realized that these two god generals were not just simple ones. The painting is on the wall, and it seems to be some kind of real existence!

Because, just as he approached the stone gate, the faces of the two guardian generals who were as tall as each other turned around strangely, and their four eyes looked in the direction of Zhang Sicheng at the same time...

Thanks to Zhang Sicheng's preparation, if an ordinary person saw such a scene in this dark corridor, he would probably have a cardiac arrest on the spot!

Chapter 686

"Who is coming?!" One of the painted divine generals painted on the wall suddenly opened his mouth and said in a loud voice.

Zhang Sicheng composed himself, cupped his hands and said, "I am the third generation direct descendant of the ancestral Celestial Master No. 60, the current Celestial Master, Zhang Sicheng."

But when the god general heard the words, his eyes suddenly shone with light, he glanced up and down at Zhang Sicheng, then nodded, cupped his hands and said, "It turns out he is a contemporary heavenly master!"

Immediately afterwards, it and the god general on the other side made a push-the-door motion.

But I saw that the "fake door" that was originally located between the two painted god generals, which seemed to be just a "fake door" carved on the brick wall, suddenly started to vibrate. Then, in a burst of rumbling sound, it actually turned from virtual to real, and then it turned into reality. Then it opened, revealing a dark doorway.

"Celestial Master, please..." The god general spoke again and made a "please" gesture.

"Thank you." Zhang Sicheng politely handed over his hands to the two god generals again, and then cautiously walked towards the dark "door".

Zhang Sicheng could clearly feel that the "door" in front of him was not a real door in the physical sense. When he walked through the door, he felt as if he had passed through a wave-like barrier. , he didn't know what kind of magic it was, but Zhang Sicheng guessed that if he were not a descendant of the Zhang family, the situation he would face would be completely different, and he would never be able to enter here easily.

By this time, he had no doubt in his mind that all of this was arranged by his ancestors a long time ago. It was probably due to the sudden death of his father that the inheritance was "interrupted" in his generation. Not to mention anything else, but You can tell by looking at the masonry structures around here that have experienced a long period of precipitation. Although Zhang Sicheng does not understand the extraordinary, after all, he has considerable knowledge of antique appreciation due to his family background. He can tell at a glance whether it is an antique. Can tell the difference.

After walking through a water-like doorway, it was dark inside. Zhang Sicheng was about to turn on the flashlight again when he suddenly felt a soft "whoosh" sound coming from around him, and then, the lamps were lit. , only then did he realize that this was an empty basement, and the surrounding air was surprisingly not stuffy. Beside the surrounding walls, there were oil lamp stands that had been built long ago, and there were one at intervals. , and I don’t know what mechanism it was due to, but after I entered, these oil lamps spontaneously ignited, one after another, and soon, the entire basement became brightly lit.

Later, Zhang Sicheng discovered that there were murals carefully painted in bright colors on the walls of the basement.

These murals have gone through so many years, and the colors are still lifelike. Zhang Sicheng just took a glance and roughly understood that several of the murals depicted the life of the Patriarch Tianshi.

In fact, Zhang Sicheng had seen many similar murals. After all, the status of the Ancestral Heavenly Master was highly respected not only by the Danding Mountain lineage, but also by other branches of Xuanmen.However, unlike the widely circulated version, the first painting on this mural does not depict the story of the ancestral heavenly master traveling around and meeting immortals and receiving the Book of Heaven.Instead, between the palace palaces in the misty clouds, a young man in Hagoromo knelt down to say goodbye to an old man in Hagoromo who was sitting cross-legged.

The second mural depicts the young man descending from the clouds and landing in a village.

The murals that followed gradually matched the impressions in Zhang Sicheng's mind about the Ancestral Master, who spread talisman water, taught all living beings, subdued demons, and established the Taoist lineage...

Therefore, Zhang Sicheng was able to determine that the young man painted in the first painting should be his ancestor, the ancestral master Zhang Xuantong.

After the last trip to Zhe Bifeng, Zhang Sicheng already understood that there is a considerable difference between the real history and the Taoist propaganda. He still remembered what Uncle Gu once said to him. Now, in this mural , he once again confirmed those words...

Why did he have great ambitions since he was a child, he wanted to learn from the world, traveled far and wide, and finally caught the eye of an immortal and was given the Book of Heaven...

Such stories are naturally very satisfying to those ignorant people. However, in fact, there is no such thing as a coincidence or such good luck...

Don’t you see, through the ages, people looking for immortals are like crucian carps crossing the river, and those who encounter immortals are like phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Everything has been chosen a long time ago. Zu Tianshi is not a lucky person with "little ambition", "good luck", and "being favored by immortals", but he comes from Penglai, the great sect of the immortal sect, and leads the sect with him. The important task is to prepare a back-up plan for the catastrophe of heaven and earth a thousand years later.

How could the Zhang family be able to pass on to this day without God's blessing behind it...
