I plant love Gu for Xianjun
Chapter 119 Jade Halal King's Heart
There were only two people left in the house.Feng Zhangjun reached out and touched Lian Zhu Xian's forehead: "How do you feel?"
Lian Zhuxian moved his shoulders, signaling Feng Zhangjun to look at the wound, the redness and swelling had subsided, and the wound had scabbed over.His marvelous physique came into play again.
"It's all right." He asked back, "What about you?"
"I'm fine too." Feng Zhangjun smiled, and looked at his head again: "...but I'm afraid this appearance will never go back, so don't dislike it."
Lian Zhuxian stretched out his hand to Feng Zhangjun, first touched his silver-white locks of hair, then walked up the neck with obvious demon patterns to his cheeks, and turned to those golden eyes.
"What's wrong with this now? No matter how many people there are, I can find you immediately. No matter what you become, you are the person I love the most."
The eyes of the two met, and they couldn't help but fell in love again.However, the timing was inappropriate after all, Lian Zhuxian licked his lips, and managed to steer the conversation in a normal direction.
"So, on Yuncang Peak just now, the monster we met was..."
"That's my uncle, Immortal Venerable Yunhua...I killed him with my own hands."
Although sad, Feng Zhangjun did not hide it: "If my guess is correct, when we got the witch inner alchemy and went from Yuncang to Xixianyuan, we were already being targeted. Someone followed us in secretly. Xixianyuan took away Ye Hao's body before Zuo Yanye and sent it to Yun Cang Siguo Building. The animals that were sent into the building a few days ago were to find out the effect of the corpse poison. Now, Yunhua Immortal Venerable and the other two masters of Yuncang were infected with corpse poison, the murderer rushed to commit the crime at this point, presumably to prevent Yunhua Immortal Venerable from leaving... the person behind the scenes..."
Having said that, he was momentarily at a loss for words, feeling entangled in his heart.
"That person should be Lord Chunwu."
Lian Zhuxian gave him the name, "The 'those who conspired with Da Si Ming and Li Ruhai' mentioned by Zhao Xiangchuan should also include Mr. Chunwu. These famous and powerful people in the Central Plains colluded secretly to achieve Taoism and become immortals." As a bait, it actually eradicates dissidents... In fact, I have another guess - it is not only the Yuncang faction who got Ye Hao's body. I am afraid that many of the various disturbances that have occurred in the past few days are also related to the corpse poison."
"You mean, the poison that my master refined to take revenge on those people was instead used by them to create chaos and poison others?"
"I'm just speculating like this, and there is no evidence."
The unfinished words were too cruel. Seeing Fengzhangjun's face turned livid, Lian Zhuxian simply changed the subject: "Then what should we do next? Yuncang is definitely still searching for your whereabouts. Wait for the sect to say that we were the ones who hid Ye Hao's body and poisoned the immortal."
"It is indeed possible." Fengzhang-jun put his hand on his forehead, "I am afraid that it is inconvenient for me to explain directly with my current appearance. However, I have always been friends with head Yu, and she may not listen to the words of Chunwu-jun's family. .”
Lian Zhuxian did not deny Feng Zhangjun's judgment, but raised another possibility: "Before Zhao Xiangchuan left just now, he said that Chunwu Lord was also considering attacking Fazong. Head Yu might not believe that you harmed Yun Hua Xianzun, but if Lord Chunwu proposes to attack Fazong together, she probably won't refuse... But if this is the case, will Ah Qing and the others be in danger?"
"It should not happen at the moment." Feng Zhangjun rationally analyzed: "Li Tianquan is Yu Dieying's nephew, and Yanying is also a young generation who is highly valued by Dongxianyuan. With the two of them here, Ziqing will be fine. But we We should think of ways as soon as possible to make the truth known to the public, so that Lord Chunwu will not point the finger at the Five Immortals Sect again after defeating Fazong."
This reminded Lian Zhuxian: "Mr. Chunwu wants to attack Fazong. Therefore, he and Miaoxuanzi are bound to be at odds. Now, Miaoxuanzi is manipulating the stone man in the underground spiritual vein. No matter what the intention is, it must be Lord Chunwu. What the group of people at the head does not want to see."
"Let's go find Miaoxuanzi." Feng Zhangjun made a decision, "The only one who can compete with Yuncang is Fazong. Find Miaoxuanzi, and everything will be finally explained."
"Okay, listen to you."
Lian Zhu Xian nodded, but his eyes flickered, he hesitated to speak.
It was Feng Zhangjun who leaned over and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"
"It's not really an important matter." Lian Zhu Xian forced a smile, and changed a probing tone: "If... I mean, if everything is finally settled, what are your plans?"
"Intend?"
Fengzhangjun lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then smiled softly: "To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet. When it really comes to that time... why don't you decide."
----
The long night was fleeting, and the chirping birdsong sounded outside the window.Considering that there are too many people in the daytime, it is not suitable to go out, so the two simply hibernate in the room, and only Lian Zhu Xian sends some snakes, insects, rats and ants out to stand guard, and the day is passed peacefully.
After sunset, the night gradually covered the sky and the earth.Only then did the two quietly go out the door and leave the town.
Tonight, there are thick clouds and no moon, and it is pitch black above the wilderness. Only occasionally, fireflies can be seen flying out of the withered grass, and then disappear suddenly.
Feng Zhangjun first released a few paper birds, and briefly told Xuan Tong and Lin Ziqing what happened here.Then, Feng Que Jian let out a soft cry, and leaped into the air with two tall figures.
Concerned about Lian Zhu Xian recovering from his injury, Feng Zhangjun opened his outer robe and pulled him into his arms.And Lian Zhu Xian also hugged him backhand.The two looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds at the same time, and looked southwest together.
-
More than ten miles northwest of the suburb of Liuquan, the mountains are like mounds, supported by rotten trees, the springs have dried up, and the sound of birds and animals is rare.There was a faint chill in the air.
With the help of the faint starlight above his head, Feng Quejian turned over many mountains and mountains.Feng Zhangjun patted his lover who was taking a nap in his arms, reminding him that the convenience before him was the territory of Fazong.
In the secret place at the bottom of the valley surrounded by three mountains, a dark city suddenly appeared, with towering pavilions, eaves flying up, and cold light under the eaves.
Like other sects in the Central Plains, the art of divine movement is also forbidden in Fazong City.Feng Zhangjun controlled the Feng Que Sword all the way down slowly, and after a while, he saw an unusually bright light outside the south gate.
"That person... seems to be Gu Yanlan?"
Lian Zhu Xian first noticed that the light seemed to be a small group of Dharma sects.The leader has black hair and a black robe, and sits on a white horse that is a bit ethereal - it is Gu Yanlan who received the punishment of the sky demon a few days ago.
"At this moment, send Gu Yanlan to guard the door, who else is waiting besides us." Feng Zhang Jun said, "Go and have a look."
While speaking, the Feng Que sword had landed steadily outside the south city gate. The gate was solid and heavy, even better than Weiyang City in Dongxianyuan. Moreover, there was a circle of stagnant water outside the city. It could be seen that the pool had The magic circle glows faintly.
On the small bridge in front of the city gate, Gu Yanlan saw that the distant guests had arrived, so she dismounted from the horse, cupped her fists and saluted: "Feng Zhangjun, the Dharma protector, the suzerain has already counted the two of you coming tonight, and ordered me to wait here for a long time. "
"Oh?" At this point, Feng Zhangjun no longer shy away from his appearance, and showed it generously in front of Gu Yanlan: "Then he also knows what happened on Yuncang Peak?"
Gu Yanlan still respectfully said: "There is nothing about the Central Plains that the suzerain doesn't know. Even outside of the Central Plains, the suzerain has nothing to miss. Please go ahead, both of you."
After finishing speaking, two members of the Fazong led the horses and stepped forward immediately—they were actually two spirit horses, whose bones could be vaguely seen, they were tall, strong and light, and they were absolutely unmatched by ordinary horses.
The two got on their horses respectively and followed Gu Yanlan into the ancestral court of Fazong.
They marched along the flat and straight road running from north to south, the ground was paved with black sand and black stones, and there were all strangely shaped black-painted pavilions along the way, thick, old and lifeless.If it weren't for the occasional lights and patrols, it would be no different from a cemetery.
Recalling the tragic past of Fengzhangjun when he was young, Lian Zhuxian couldn't help but secretly pay attention to the expressions of the people around him—Fengzhangjun was still calm, but there was still vigilance between the slightly frowned eyebrows and the tightly pursed lips.
Both of them are riding on horses, there is always some distance between them, Lian Zhu Xian doesn't know how to comfort each other.After thinking about it, he simply went the other way and started talking with Gu Yanlan.
"I saw wood and rocks piled up in some places in the city. Could it be that they are going to be repaired?"
Gu Yanlan was not perfunctory: "Although the Fazong is called a sect, it is as big as a city, and many of the buildings in it are old. Naturally, it is common to renovate and repair them. Moreover, there are many institutions in the city. I would like to invite you Follow me, don't get lost."
Lian Zhu Xian tried again: "Do you still recognize us?"
"I don't remember. I judged the identities of the two based on their clothes and appearance." Gu Yanlan replied calmly: "However, I must have recognized them before. Otherwise, the suzerain wouldn't let me pick up the two distinguished guests."
Lian Zhuxian asked: "Aren't you curious?"
"I'm not curious." Gu Yanlan shook her head, "Since you've forgotten it, there's a reason why you've forgotten it. At this moment, my heart is calm and satisfied, and I don't expect more. Sometimes, less is more, and gain is also loss. Just hold on to today." Enough."
Lian Zhu Xian nodded: "That's right, I've been taught."
After speaking, he went to look at Mr. Fengzhang again, and found that Mr. Fengzhang was also looking this way, his eyes were gentle, and the melancholy between his brows had receded.
Fa Zong's spirit horse was running fast, and in a blink of an eye, the three of them passed through the dark and dim city, but turned a corner in front of the majestic Fa Zong main hall, and went straight to the northwest, the desolate and secluded garden.
Lian Zhuxian and Feng Zhangjun exchanged a look, and both of them had a vague premonition.
Sure enough, they were quickly brought to a wide open space similar to a quarry.On the bare rocky ground, five-color soul-inducing streamers lined up a maze-like huge magic circle.It seems that in order from the back to the front, there are faintly glowing runes on each flag, as if something invisible is being silently conveyed.
"Where is this place?" Lian Zhu Xian deliberately asked Gu Yanlan.
"To be honest, I don't know." Gu Yanlan shook her head, "I was just ordered by the suzerain to do some chores... By the way, I met three interesting people in it a few days ago. The suzerain said, Seems to be friends of the two."
Those three guys were indeed seen through by Miao Xuanzi, Lian Zhuxian smiled wryly in silence, and asked again: "Then what are we going to do now, who are we going to see - you should know that, right?"
Gu Yanlan said: "Please also come with me, the suzerain is waiting in the cave."
The two of them followed Gu Yanlan and walked quickly along the array of soul-inducing flags, and they arrived at the foot of the mountain after a while.Sure enough, it was the entrance to the underground spiritual vein.
-
The conditions in the underground caves are roughly consistent with the earlier descriptions by Li Tianquan and others.The souls conveyed in the soul-inducing banners outside the cave are all the souls collected by Fazong from various places.In the dark underground cave, Fazong used a simple spell to infuse the soul into the body of the stone man, thus creating countless movable "living figurines".
Regarding the origin of the stone man, Gu Yanlan also gave an explanation——
"The suzerain said that these stone figures were all left by King Yuqingzhen during his lifetime. Legend has it that after King Yuqingzhen left the heaven, he visited famous mountains and rivers all over the world, and finally came to this spiritual vein. He used the stone and soil here to create countless The faceless stone man is just to keep trying, imitating the ancient gods' technique of creating man, and creating a new body for a soul."
"...Try to create a physical body?"
Lian Zhu Xian, who was following behind him, stagnated slightly, suddenly realized something, and turned his gaze to Feng Zhangjun.
Coincidentally, Feng Zhangjun was also watching him, obviously thinking of going together again.
Gu Yanlan, who was walking in front, noticed the sudden silence behind her, and turned around: "What's the problem, you two?"
"It's okay." Fengzhangjun shook his head, and asked again: "Did King Yuqingzhen succeed in the end?"
"I don't know." Gu Yanlan looked at the unused stone men beside the road, "I just heard that King Yuqingzhen died not long after. But with his ability, he should have lived for many, many years. .”
After saying this, the three of them fell silent in unison.
Gu Yanlan led the two of them through several cave halls, and around them, the stone people who had been endowed with the power of soul gradually merged into a river.
Lian Zhuxian silently made a comparison—although all these stone figures have neither facial features nor hair, they are indeed very similar to him in terms of height and body shape.
Could it be that Yuqing really wanted to revive Tai Su back then?And that means, after the battle between heaven and man, Taisu's soul still fell into Yuqing's hands...
Just as he thought of this, he heard a strange sound coming from the front—the relatively narrow underground corridor had come to an end, and in front of him was a huge cave that was spacious and somewhat unbelievably spacious, and there were thick and thick pinnacles scattered in different heights.
There is no doubt that this is the "cave hall" that Ah Qing and the others described in detail.
Gu Yanlan kept on walking, leading Feng Zhangjun and Lian Zhuxian through the bustling stone figures, and soon stopped in front of a not too high stone peak.
He pointed to the distance above his head with his finger: "You two can continue to go up from here, the suzerain is waiting on the highest stone peak. There are complicated things in the sect, please forgive me." After speaking, he bowed his head and saluted, and then Turned around and left.
Lian Zhuxian looked up at the stone peak in front of him, except for the relatively flat top, there was nothing special about it, except for an old hanging bridge on the edge of the cliff, connecting with another higher stone peak.
The two stepped on the hanging bridge and found that the top of the second pinnacle was much wider, and there was even a half-dilapidated dilapidated stone house standing there.Through the dark door opening, one could vaguely see some crumbling containers and wooden frames inside, which looked messy.
"This is like a warehouse." Jun Fengzhang made a guess. He felt that it was somewhat similar to the room where the master on Yinshan used to store the treasures of heaven and earth. Maybe some of the treasures on Yinshan originally belonged here.
The immediate priority is to find Miao Xuanzi, they didn't pay much attention to the abandoned house.After turning a small bend, another suspension bridge appeared, pointing to a higher pinnacle.
Next, they passed seven or eight pinnacles, and almost every peak had a building.A few were apparently storerooms, others were alchemy rooms and bookstores.
If what Gu Yanlan said just now is true, then Yuqing Zhenwang should have lived in seclusion here, concentrating on researching the method of recreating Taisu's physical body.
Before they knew it, the two of them had ascended to a height of more than thirty feet above the ground.The stone man on the ground is already as small as an ant.However, Miao Xuanzi still disappeared.
"Look over there."
Lian Zhuxian pointed his hand, passed the nearby stone peak, and vaguely saw a stone pavilion standing farther away, with silver gauze fluttering under the eaves, very eye-catching.
Miao Xuanzi must be there.
When he got closer, Lian Zhuxian realized that the Shiting was far taller and more magnificent than imagined, almost like a small building.The silver gauze of unknown texture hangs down from the eaves, and after thousands of years, it is still as bright as new, and the runes looming on it can even be recognized.
It was an ancient rune, although it was no longer in use, but Lian Zhuxian could barely decipher a little meaning: praying for the afterlife, being with each other - more like a beautiful wish.
"Ah Ting." Feng Zhangjun suddenly called softly, and took Lian Zhu Xian's hand.
Lian Zhu Xian also responded in a low voice, clasping five fingers with him.
The two of them stepped on the last dozen or so stone steps together, and found that there was no trace of Miao Xuanzi in the stone pavilion, but instead, there stood a huge stone coffin as tall as two people, which looked familiar.
"There seem to be reliefs on it." Lian Zhuxian stepped forward.
Compared with the weathered relief sculptures outside the Secret Hall of the Five Immortals, the stone coffin in front of me is still well preserved, as if it was placed in the stone pavilion yesterday.It was precisely because of this that Lian Zhuxian recognized the tall figure with flying clothes and awe-inspiring immortality almost immediately.
"...Is that Yuqing Zhenwang?"
It is not only the seal of Xianji that proves this.The person on the relief is almost exactly the same as Feng Zhangjun in terms of figure and appearance.
In the frozen picture, there are no figures or scenes around King Yuqingzhen. He is standing in a void, and his hands seem to be holding something, but it is not shaped, but more like a small "cloud" .
Not understanding what this scene meant, Lian Zhuxian and Feng Zhangjun stepped forward at the same time, continuing to observe the reliefs on the stone coffin.
Gorgeous buildings appeared.In a palace even more magnificent than Yun Cang's Guizhen Hall, there stands a tall cauldron furnace.The little "cloud" was sent into the furnace for refining, and dozens of male and female immortals guarded it strictly outside the furnace.
In the next scene, the cauldron was turned on, but what was refined was not a panacea, but a handsome young man with long hair covering his body, but his eyes and brows were full of ignorance and innocence.
Lian Zhuxian remained silent, although Feng Zhangjun also did not speak, but stretched out his hand, gently caressing the cheek of the embossed figure.
"It's not quite right..." Lian Zhu Xian murmured softly, "According to the description of the murals in the Five Immortals Sect, Tai Su should have been a human being when he escaped from chaos. Why is it different from what is said above?"
"In the legends of certain sects in the Central Plains, Taisu is still a monster with a human face and a beast body and horns on its head." Feng Zhangjun replied, "The most real moment will never be kept. It is always passed down to future generations. All kinds of processing and imagination."
They continued to walk slowly around the coffin, and the relief scenes unfolded like a scroll.
Tai Su, who walked out of the cauldron, put on noble robes and rare treasures, and stayed beside King Yuqingzhen like a puppet.
Under the gradually growing Wangyou tree, King Yuqingzhen taught him to speak, read and write, and taught him various wisdom and knowledge between heaven and earth.
Taisu, on the other hand, is like all the original people in the world, snuggling up to the protector with peace of mind.
Such a scene seems to be gentle and quiet.However, Lian Zhuxian frowned.
"He's hiding him. It's like a caged bird,"
He reached out and brushed Taisu's neck, where there was a necklace engraved with mantras.
"Taisu can't leave Yuqing, he has no real freedom." Feng Zhangjun explained the meaning of the necklace.
Taisu in relief is calm and even joyful.Perhaps for a pet that has been raised from birth and has no idea what freedom is, this kind of pleasure is beyond reproach.However, in the eyes of others, it seems a bit ridiculous.
Feng Zhangjun secretly glanced at Lian Zhu Xian, but Lian Zhu Xian seemed to be thinking nothing, and walked calmly.
The figures of Yuqing and Taisu disappeared from the relief.Instead, the backs of a large group of ancient immortals, they gathered together, imposing.
On the opposite side of them, there is an island-like giant rock suspended in mid-air, with pavilions and pavilions on the rock, and the most striking thing is the huge Wangyou tree.
"Yuqing hid Taisu privately on that floating island." Lian Zhuxian had already understood the meaning of the painting, "Other ancient immortals heard the news and came to ask Yuqing to hand over Taisu, and then ..."
"Then, they divided up Taisu's body and used his body parts as props for his cultivation." Feng Zhangjun said in a deep voice.
The relief scroll continued to extend, and the figures of Yuqing and Taisu reappeared, but they did not have the calm and stable feeling before.
Taisu's collar was taken off, which was the last thing Yuqing did for him.Afterwards, under the guidance of a jade fox, Taisu, who was in a daze, was sent away from the fairy world, and landed in the human world for the first time in his life.
"Why did Yuqing let him go?" Lian Zhuxian asked in a low voice.
"Perhaps it is because I don't want Taisu's power to be used by others, and then shake my supreme honor among the immortals."
Feng Zhangjun first gave a relatively neutral conjecture, then paused, and then added his real thoughts: "Or...he is really moved by Taisu."
Lian Zhuxian moved his shoulders, signaling Feng Zhangjun to look at the wound, the redness and swelling had subsided, and the wound had scabbed over.His marvelous physique came into play again.
"It's all right." He asked back, "What about you?"
"I'm fine too." Feng Zhangjun smiled, and looked at his head again: "...but I'm afraid this appearance will never go back, so don't dislike it."
Lian Zhuxian stretched out his hand to Feng Zhangjun, first touched his silver-white locks of hair, then walked up the neck with obvious demon patterns to his cheeks, and turned to those golden eyes.

Sure enough, they were quickly brought to a wide open space similar to a quarry.On the bare rocky ground, five-color soul-inducing streamers lined up a maze-like huge magic circle.It seems that in order from the back to the front, there are faintly glowing runes on each flag, as if something invisible is being silently conveyed.
"Where is this place?" Lian Zhu Xian deliberately asked Gu Yanlan.
"To be honest, I don't know." Gu Yanlan shook her head, "I was just ordered by the suzerain to do some chores... By the way, I met three interesting people in it a few days ago. The suzerain said, Seems to be friends of the two."
Those three guys were indeed seen through by Miao Xuanzi, Lian Zhuxian smiled wryly in silence, and asked again: "Then what are we going to do now, who are we going to see - you should know that, right?"
Gu Yanlan said: "Please also come with me, the suzerain is waiting in the cave."
The two of them followed Gu Yanlan and walked quickly along the array of soul-inducing flags, and they arrived at the foot of the mountain after a while.Sure enough, it was the entrance to the underground spiritual vein.
-
The conditions in the underground caves are roughly consistent with the earlier descriptions by Li Tianquan and others.The souls conveyed in the soul-inducing banners outside the cave are all the souls collected by Fazong from various places.In the dark underground cave, Fazong used a simple spell to infuse the soul into the body of the stone man, thus creating countless movable "living figurines".
Regarding the origin of the stone man, Gu Yanlan also gave an explanation——
"The suzerain said that these stone figures were all left by King Yuqingzhen during his lifetime. Legend has it that after King Yuqingzhen left the heaven, he visited famous mountains and rivers all over the world, and finally came to this spiritual vein. He used the stone and soil here to create countless The faceless stone man is just to keep trying, imitating the ancient gods' technique of creating man, and creating a new body for a soul."
"...Try to create a physical body?"
Lian Zhu Xian, who was following behind him, stagnated slightly, suddenly realized something, and turned his gaze to Feng Zhangjun.
Coincidentally, Feng Zhangjun was also watching him, obviously thinking of going together again.
Gu Yanlan, who was walking in front, noticed the sudden silence behind her, and turned around: "What's the problem, you two?"
"It's okay." Fengzhangjun shook his head, and asked again: "Did King Yuqingzhen succeed in the end?"
"I don't know." Gu Yanlan looked at the unused stone men beside the road, "I just heard that King Yuqingzhen died not long after. But with his ability, he should have lived for many, many years. .”
After saying this, the three of them fell silent in unison.
Gu Yanlan led the two of them through several cave halls, and around them, the stone people who had been endowed with the power of soul gradually merged into a river.
Lian Zhuxian silently made a comparison—although all these stone figures have neither facial features nor hair, they are indeed very similar to him in terms of height and body shape.
Could it be that Yuqing really wanted to revive Tai Su back then?And that means, after the battle between heaven and man, Taisu's soul still fell into Yuqing's hands...
Just as he thought of this, he heard a strange sound coming from the front—the relatively narrow underground corridor had come to an end, and in front of him was a huge cave that was spacious and somewhat unbelievably spacious, and there were thick and thick pinnacles scattered in different heights.
There is no doubt that this is the "cave hall" that Ah Qing and the others described in detail.
Gu Yanlan kept on walking, leading Feng Zhangjun and Lian Zhuxian through the bustling stone figures, and soon stopped in front of a not too high stone peak.
He pointed to the distance above his head with his finger: "You two can continue to go up from here, the suzerain is waiting on the highest stone peak. There are complicated things in the sect, please forgive me." After speaking, he bowed his head and saluted, and then Turned around and left.
Lian Zhuxian looked up at the stone peak in front of him, except for the relatively flat top, there was nothing special about it, except for an old hanging bridge on the edge of the cliff, connecting with another higher stone peak.
The two stepped on the hanging bridge and found that the top of the second pinnacle was much wider, and there was even a half-dilapidated dilapidated stone house standing there.Through the dark door opening, one could vaguely see some crumbling containers and wooden frames inside, which looked messy.
"This is like a warehouse." Jun Fengzhang made a guess. He felt that it was somewhat similar to the room where the master on Yinshan used to store the treasures of heaven and earth. Maybe some of the treasures on Yinshan originally belonged here.
The immediate priority is to find Miao Xuanzi, they didn't pay much attention to the abandoned house.After turning a small bend, another suspension bridge appeared, pointing to a higher pinnacle.
Next, they passed seven or eight pinnacles, and almost every peak had a building.A few were apparently storerooms, others were alchemy rooms and bookstores.
If what Gu Yanlan said just now is true, then Yuqing Zhenwang should have lived in seclusion here, concentrating on researching the method of recreating Taisu's physical body.
Before they knew it, the two of them had ascended to a height of more than thirty feet above the ground.The stone man on the ground is already as small as an ant.However, Miao Xuanzi still disappeared.
"Look over there."
Lian Zhuxian pointed his hand, passed the nearby stone peak, and vaguely saw a stone pavilion standing farther away, with silver gauze fluttering under the eaves, very eye-catching.
Miao Xuanzi must be there.
When he got closer, Lian Zhuxian realized that the Shiting was far taller and more magnificent than imagined, almost like a small building.The silver gauze of unknown texture hangs down from the eaves, and after thousands of years, it is still as bright as new, and the runes looming on it can even be recognized.
It was an ancient rune, although it was no longer in use, but Lian Zhuxian could barely decipher a little meaning: praying for the afterlife, being with each other - more like a beautiful wish.
"Ah Ting." Feng Zhangjun suddenly called softly, and took Lian Zhu Xian's hand.
Lian Zhu Xian also responded in a low voice, clasping five fingers with him.
The two of them stepped on the last dozen or so stone steps together, and found that there was no trace of Miao Xuanzi in the stone pavilion, but instead, there stood a huge stone coffin as tall as two people, which looked familiar.
"There seem to be reliefs on it." Lian Zhuxian stepped forward.
Compared with the weathered relief sculptures outside the Secret Hall of the Five Immortals, the stone coffin in front of me is still well preserved, as if it was placed in the stone pavilion yesterday.It was precisely because of this that Lian Zhuxian recognized the tall figure with flying clothes and awe-inspiring immortality almost immediately.
"...Is that Yuqing Zhenwang?"
It is not only the seal of Xianji that proves this.The person on the relief is almost exactly the same as Feng Zhangjun in terms of figure and appearance.
In the frozen picture, there are no figures or scenes around King Yuqingzhen. He is standing in a void, and his hands seem to be holding something, but it is not shaped, but more like a small "cloud" .
Not understanding what this scene meant, Lian Zhuxian and Feng Zhangjun stepped forward at the same time, continuing to observe the reliefs on the stone coffin.
Gorgeous buildings appeared.In a palace even more magnificent than Yun Cang's Guizhen Hall, there stands a tall cauldron furnace.The little "cloud" was sent into the furnace for refining, and dozens of male and female immortals guarded it strictly outside the furnace.
In the next scene, the cauldron was turned on, but what was refined was not a panacea, but a handsome young man with long hair covering his body, but his eyes and brows were full of ignorance and innocence.
Lian Zhuxian remained silent, although Feng Zhangjun also did not speak, but stretched out his hand, gently caressing the cheek of the embossed figure.
"It's not quite right..." Lian Zhu Xian murmured softly, "According to the description of the murals in the Five Immortals Sect, Tai Su should have been a human being when he escaped from chaos. Why is it different from what is said above?"
"In the legends of certain sects in the Central Plains, Taisu is still a monster with a human face and a beast body and horns on its head." Feng Zhangjun replied, "The most real moment will never be kept. It is always passed down to future generations. All kinds of processing and imagination."
They continued to walk slowly around the coffin, and the relief scenes unfolded like a scroll.
Tai Su, who walked out of the cauldron, put on noble robes and rare treasures, and stayed beside King Yuqingzhen like a puppet.
Under the gradually growing Wangyou tree, King Yuqingzhen taught him to speak, read and write, and taught him various wisdom and knowledge between heaven and earth.
Taisu, on the other hand, is like all the original people in the world, snuggling up to the protector with peace of mind.
Such a scene seems to be gentle and quiet.However, Lian Zhuxian frowned.
"He's hiding him. It's like a caged bird,"
He reached out and brushed Taisu's neck, where there was a necklace engraved with mantras.
"Taisu can't leave Yuqing, he has no real freedom." Feng Zhangjun explained the meaning of the necklace.
Taisu in relief is calm and even joyful.Perhaps for a pet that has been raised from birth and has no idea what freedom is, this kind of pleasure is beyond reproach.However, in the eyes of others, it seems a bit ridiculous.
Feng Zhangjun secretly glanced at Lian Zhu Xian, but Lian Zhu Xian seemed to be thinking nothing, and walked calmly.
The figures of Yuqing and Taisu disappeared from the relief.Instead, the backs of a large group of ancient immortals, they gathered together, imposing.
On the opposite side of them, there is an island-like giant rock suspended in mid-air, with pavilions and pavilions on the rock, and the most striking thing is the huge Wangyou tree.
"Yuqing hid Taisu privately on that floating island." Lian Zhuxian had already understood the meaning of the painting, "Other ancient immortals heard the news and came to ask Yuqing to hand over Taisu, and then ..."
"Then, they divided up Taisu's body and used his body parts as props for his cultivation." Feng Zhangjun said in a deep voice.
The relief scroll continued to extend, and the figures of Yuqing and Taisu reappeared, but they did not have the calm and stable feeling before.
Taisu's collar was taken off, which was the last thing Yuqing did for him.Afterwards, under the guidance of a jade fox, Taisu, who was in a daze, was sent away from the fairy world, and landed in the human world for the first time in his life.
"Why did Yuqing let him go?" Lian Zhuxian asked in a low voice.
"Perhaps it is because I don't want Taisu's power to be used by others, and then shake my supreme honor among the immortals."
Feng Zhangjun first gave a relatively neutral conjecture, then paused, and then added his real thoughts: "Or...he is really moved by Taisu."
