Add some practice: start with a lucid dream

Zhong Xiao was so frightened that his two legs trembled. Fortunately, he still had the old man in his hand, so he didn't have any oil on his feet to avoid it.

"The Patriarch is here!" The contemporary Celestial Master wishes he could shorten the two words into one.

"Unfortunately, the unworthy Sun Xingqi of the sixty-fifth generation has offended and asked the ancestors to help him overcome this disaster!"

The jade sword shone dimly, seeming to cancel out the power of the portrait. The contemporary Celestial Master, or Zhang Xingqi, felt the blood boiling all over his body, and the jade sword in his hand no longer had any resistance.

He immediately stabbed hard again.

puff.

A big hole was poked out of the portrait, and the tip of the sword was inserted into it, but the back was actually empty!

"Get your stuff out!"

Zhang Xingqi swung his sword randomly again and tore the sealed portrait to pieces, revealing the wooden utensils stored in secret compartments inside.

At this point, Zhongxiao finally knew how serious the matter was, so he didn't care about anything, so he climbed up and reached out for it.

Oops, quite heavy.

"Be careful!" Zhang Xingqi threw away the jade sword and panted while lying on the altar table.

"The rice in here weighs five buckets!"

At this time, Chongxiao finally saw clearly that it was a rough and yellowed square container, which was actually filled with grains of various colors, with old and new grains mixed together.

Zhong Xiao was shocked and immediately understood what this was.

When Zhang Daoling first established the religion, he used a basket of grain as a token. He would not refuse anyone who came. After paying five measures of rice, he signed a contract to be protected by him and take him as his trust.

Therefore, it is called the Five Dou Rice Sect.

And the basket in front of me is probably the original five buckets of rice that Zhang Daoling used as the standard!

That's exactly what happened.

This basket of rice was the sustenance of the Taoist mainstream incense at the beginning, and it has begun to take on the characteristics of laws. No matter how it is exposed to wind, sun, sifting, and shaking, no matter how it is treated, the food in the basket will never be too much or too little, and it weighs five buckets!

Five buckets weighs about sixty or seventy kilograms when converted into modern measurement units.

Fortunately, the basket of rice always weighs five buckets, so there is no need to worry about spilling it. Zhongxiao still relies on his youth and strength, plus his good body from practicing martial arts for many years to hold it in his arms, and he can also help Zhang Xingqi with it. .

"Master!" There were already slightly bulging veins on Zhong Xiao's forehead.

"Smash it to the ground!" Zhang Xingqi clapped his hands and hit Zhong Xiao between his palms.

"Master?!" Zhongxiao was slapped and his hand loosened, causing the wooden basket to fall to the ground.

Puff, rustle, rustle.

Food poured from the wooden basket all over the ground, pouring out like an avalanche mixed with mudslides.

"Master?!" Zhong Xiao had completely lost his usual sharp tongue.

"This box of rice will never be too much." Zhang Xingqi was not too surprised when he saw this strange scene. Instead, he found a trace of calmness and explained,

"No less!"

"No matter what, there will always be five buckets of rice in the basket!"

In just a few words, the grains were spread all over the floor, but they were still pouring out of the basket in a steady stream. Zhang Xingqi directed Zhong Xiao to grab the bottom and shake it hard, and within a short time, the two people's ankles were submerged.

While Zhong Xiao was busy getting the rice basket, Zhang Xingqi had already closed the door to the secret room so that the rice grains would not leak out.

"Master!" As more and more food was accumulated in the room, Zhong Xiao suddenly felt dizzy.

"Why do I feel out of breath!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xingqi looked at his apprentice in surprise.

"This rice didn't come out of thin air."

"It costs Yuan Qi!"

Speaking of which, Zhong Xiao also noticed that the magical weapons and treasures around him seemed to be gradually dimming.

Obviously, this rice basket extracts Yuan Qi from abundance to thrift, so the magic weapon is most affected.

Why did the disciple of the three-legged cat Daoxing react more strongly than the master?

Zhang Xingqi didn't have time to think too much when he heard his disciple exclaim again,

"Why are you starting to shake!"

The room began to shake.

"It means it's working!" Zhang Xingqi explained with a happy face,

"This rice is used to activate the mechanism!"

Although Zhang Xingqi knew the key, it was his first time to practice it. At this time, he was relieved to see that everything went smoothly.

At this moment, the pile of food was buried up to the waists of the two of them, and then the secret room shook violently, and it fell down like an elevator!

"Stay steady!" Zhang Xingqi reminded loudly amid the bumps.

"Okay!" Zhong Xiao grabbed the tribute table, and the rice grains splashed around him due to the vibration, making him unable to open his eyes.

"You kid!" Zhang Xingqi was furious.

"I asked you to help me! Help me!"

"Huh? Oh oh oh oh!" Chong Xiao then brought his master to his side, leaning against the sturdy tribute table, and he also didn't forget to straighten the rice basket.

If more rice is poured out, the two of them will either drown or be drained of their energy and die suddenly.

The difficult moments will pass.

It may take a few minutes, or even longer, until the turbulence in the secret room ends, and I don't know when light comes through the crack in the door.

"Follow me." After all, Zhang Xingqi has been in charge of Longhu Mountain for many years, and he is not bad at all. At this time, he grabbed a long-bright oil lamp with withered Yuan Qi and walked out.

The lights were like beans, illuminating the surrounding darkness like a tide.

squeak--

Pushing open the secret door of the secret room again, Zhang Xingqi squinted his eyes under the glare of the daylight. Zhong Xiao behind him was fine, but his eyes were full of surprise.

"This is..." Zhong Xiao followed his master and saw clearly that they were actually in an open cave.

The sunlight from outside came in, illuminating everything in the cave.

Behind them, the secret room that led them in seemed to be embedded in the ground, with most of it exposed through the rock.

There is an incense table next to it, with tea fruits, glutinous rice cakes, incense, willow branches, lamp oil, milk porridge and other tributes available.

"This is the altar set up by you, Master?" Chong Xiao's eyes were filled with confusion.

"No, this is what the ancestor left behind." Zhang Xingqi said, stepping up and cautiously looking out of the cave.

Zhong Xiao did as he was told, only to see a cliff with a drop of several thousand meters outside, and a river at the bottom.

this is not? !

Zhong Xiao recognized it at a glance. Aren't these the hanging coffin tombs in the mountain behind his home? !

The two of them were in the Sihan Tianshi Mansion a few minutes ago, and now they were transported to this cliff cave hundreds of meters high!

Just looking at it, Zhong Xiao realized something was wrong again.

Their hanging coffin in Longhu Mountain is only a few hundred meters tall, and based on the current visual inspection, their location is definitely more than a thousand meters away!

wrong!

Obviously this cliff is not even a thousand meters high!

Zhong Xiao's mind was confused for a moment, as if something had gone wrong in the whole world.

"You can't see this place from the outside." Zhang Xingqi seemed to know what Chong Xiao was thinking and explained simply,

"This is the secret place where the Patriarch personally created the formation. It can be hidden from the outside, but no one can get in."

"The ancestral teachings are contained, and they can only be used when our Longhu Mountain is facing life and death."

"Those," Chongxiao pointed at those lifelike melon and fruit tributes that were full of water and didn't shed any dust.

"Are they all left behind thousands of years ago?"

"Of course." Zhang Xingqi raised his chin unconsciously and directed his disciples to get busy in front of the altar.

"One day in the cave means a thousand years in the world." "In the past, this was the cave of the Immortal Family. If you accidentally walked in, you would become a bad person."

"Pour the rice in."

"To this place, twenty steps outside the altar."

"Master?" Chong Xiao suddenly interrupted.

"What?" Zhang Xingqi stroked his beard, somewhat dissatisfied with his apprentice's interruption.

"Our Patriarch" Zhong Xiao said in an uncertain tone while holding the rice basket and pouring grain into the designated location,

"You even have a Samoyed here?"

"?" Zhang Xingqi didn't react for a moment,

"What did you say?"

"Are you confused?"

But before he finished speaking, Zhang Xingqi followed the direction of his apprentice's finger and looked into the eyes of an uninvited guest who was furry and white.

"Huh?" The little guy opened his mouth slightly, his pink tongue sticking out, and his tongue flowed out, with the word "big smart" written all over his face.

Why does this Samoyed have such foxy eyes?

"Master?" Chongxiao didn't know what expression to make.

"What kind of generation is this?"

"Who are you!" Zhang Xingqi finally came to his senses,

"What kind of dog does the ancestor have?"

"And what about your eyes? This is obviously a fox!"

"Hey." The little white fox shook its big tail proudly, as if it could understand human speech.

"Ah, ah?" Zhong Xiao said innocently,

"Isn't it left by the ancestor?"

"But Master, didn't you say that no one can come in?"

"You mean dogs, oh no, foxes can come in?"

"." Zhang Xingqi felt a little numb.

People can't enter a fox, so why enter a fart!

Could it be that this is an animal left by the ancestor for sacrifice to the descendants?

Or a guarding spirit beast?

But why wasn’t it mentioned in the ancestral teachings?

do not care!

Catch him first and then talk!

"Catch it!" Zhang Xingqi's eyes changed and he shouted at the little white fox.

"Okay!" Zhong Xiao put down the rice basket and pounced on it like a tiger with its afterimage, even Zhang Xingqi was startled.

But unexpectedly, he was faster, and the snow-white elf was even faster. He turned around and avoided pursuit with a single jump.

Snapped!

Zhongxiao landed heavily, and when he was about to catch up, he picked up the food residue on the ground and looked at it.

"This is."

"Beast!" Zhang Xingqi, who was watching, recognized at a glance that this was the spiritual fruit medicine reserved by the ancestor!

No wonder there is so much space on the tribute table and rice is still needed to fill it!

It turned out that it was eaten by the white-furred fox that was killed on this day!

"How dare you do this in the Holy Land of the Patriarch!" Zhang Xingqi was angry. Just as he and Zhong Xiao were about to chase and intercept him, he heard footsteps coming from the shadows in the cave.

Da da da.

Zhong Xiao stopped his movements and stared into the darkness with his master.

Until a young man with a tall and straight posture and a capable expression walked out.

"Mr. Zhang." The young man glanced at the little white fox in the corner who couldn't stop burping, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.

In a daze, he seemed to see a certain girl with a single-name name again, and secretly prayed in his heart that one rice bucket would be enough, but don't add another greedy fox to the base.

The cafeteria chefs jointly went on strike to protest against the excessive work intensity. This was the first time in their Yinxian Club.

"Who are you!" Zhang Xingqi asked first.

And the other party also gave the answer he expected.

"Relevant departments." The young man said, neither humble nor overbearing.

"Mr. Zhang, I hope you can cooperate with our work."

Haha, the Hidden Immortal Club is just the Hidden Immortal Club, pretending to be a big-tailed fox. Zhang Xingqi was disdainful in his heart, but he ran away with oil on his feet.

The old man, who looked to be in his seventies or eighties, was incredibly fast. He lay down in front of the altar in two steps, bit the tip of his tongue and spit out blood, and endured the severe pain and said:

"The Nine Profound Qi is the smallest, the source of the cave is three clears, the Jiutian Cave is the first era, and the Wufang Qi is transformed!"

Zhang Xingqi finished reciting dozens of words in just a moment.

At the same time, the treasure qi that had been stored in his body for decades and passed down to each generation of Celestial Masters in Longhu Mountain through the Celestial Master Succession Ceremony quickly flowed out along the upper body that was holding the altar.

The roar of an unknown beast came from far away, as if some giant beast was reviving.

"Haha." As soon as this mouthful of Baoqi came out, Zhang Xingqi felt weak all over, as if he had aged dozens of years in an instant.

"Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!"

"Do you have the strength to fight against me, Longhu Mountain?"

There are Bo people in the southwest who live in Shu. They worship fire and heaven. They are brave and good at fighting. However, they are backward in form and system. They are despised by the people of the Central Plains and are called barbarians.

Zhang Daoling, the first heavenly master, went to Shu to preach after attaining Taoism at Longhu Mountain, and settled in Qingcheng Mountain. He was very surprised when he saw the Bo people. For no other reason than the hanging coffin tombs unique to the Bo people.

After that, the Bo people converted to the disciples of Tianshi, gradually merged with Han culture, and disappeared in the long river of history.

However, the Bo people's hanging coffin custom was moved back to Longhu Mountain by Zhang Tianshi and rearranged according to the number of Dayan. The cave wall coffin does not contain corpse bones, but magic weapon formations, in order to simulate the principles of alchemy cultivation and convey Destined in the solid rocks of mountains and rivers, and then refined by the faith of Taoists, life and life are blended and cultivated together, so mountains and rivers are used as a furnace of elixir!

In the Ming Dynasty, Wu Cheng'en once traveled here and was impressed by the immortal's handwriting, so he used the words of the Supreme Lord to tell the true meaning of alchemy cultivation in "Journey to the West".

"The appearance is entangled, the life is strong, but the golden lotus can be planted in the fire!"

Longhu Mountain is named after the green dragon and white tiger that circled the cauldron and ascended to the sky when Zhang Daoling completed his alchemy!

And now, this furnace pill is about to be completed!

"Ow—"

"Ho ho ho ho ho!".

The dragon's roar is like thunder, steady and powerful, and it explodes suddenly, making people's hair stand on end.

The roar of the tiger is like a strong wind, and it is unparalleled in its dominance, causing all the mountains and forests to bend.

There was an endless tremor in the cave, and gravel and dust continued to fall like rain.

Zhong Xiao came over in embarrassment and pulled his master away, but Zhang Xingqi stared at the young man opposite, trying to find a trace of shock and fear on his face.

But no.

The young man just looked at Zhang Xingqi's master and apprentice quietly, his expression unchanged despite the gravel hitting him.

Outrageous!

Do you really think that no one in Longhu Mountain really thinks that I can come to the holy land of my ancestors whenever I want? !

"Ouch——" The roar of the dragon rang out from my ears again, the cave completely collapsed, and then it was knocked open again!

"Ouch——".

All I saw was a huge dragon head, which looked exactly like the legend. It had antlers like a deer, a head like a camel, and eyes like a rabbit. The dragon's mouth was wide and open, revealing its ferocious fangs. A few long and thick dragon whiskers were fluttering in the wind, and its body was covered with golden scales. sparkling with light.

dragon!

At this time, the entire cliff has revealed its true appearance of several thousand meters high, shaped like a Danding cauldron!

There was no open flame in the alchemy cauldron, only a giant golden dragon shuttled through it, gradually unfurling its majestic body nearly a kilometer long.

"Ouch——".

Yun Conglong, a large amount of clouds and mist gathered as the golden dragon appeared, burying its body in the indistinct haze.

The giant dragon is extremely arrogant, declaring the majesty of the king to the heaven and earth!

But suddenly.

The giant dragon stopped groaning and turned its head to look down, as if looking for something. (End of chapter)
