Three hundred and fifty miles away from Chaoge City, between the mountains and dense forests, a dilapidated trail appeared in front of Yu Qi and Taoist Daguang.

The path is no more than a meter wide, and is paved with bluestones. It is uneven, but has been worn smooth by the years, without any edges or corners.

Yu Qi looked at the path in front of him with his eyes. At a glance, he could see that the path was full of weeds, and it went deep into the jungle with no end in sight.

Moss and soil accumulate on the bluestone, and thorns and branches cover the path on both sides.

"Where is this?" Yu Qi looked at the path in front of him with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"This path has not been walked on for more than two hundred years. You come with me!" Daguang Taoist took out a stick. Strange to say, he saw where the stick passed, the grass and trees were crouching, and the branches were swollen.

Pressing it down, the path was cleared out of thin air.

The two of them walked on a desolate path, winding through the lush forest. There were dilapidated stone tablets in the mountains and forests. Mysterious words were carved on the stone tablets. They had been blown by time, rain and wind, and were covered with mud, making it difficult to read.

Come out as you are.

As the saying goes: There is no guest in the pavilion for ten miles, and stars appear in the nine heavens.

All ships on the eight rivers have closed their ports, and all seven thousand prefectures and counties have closed their doors.

The six palaces and five palaces returned to officialdom, and the four seas and three rivers stopped fishing.

The bells and drums on the two towers were ringing, and a bright moon filled the sky.

Taoist Daguang walked past the stone monuments, ignoring the stone monuments covered with soil. He just silently led Yu Qi towards the end of the path. After half a quarter of an hour, they reached the top of the mountain. The end of the path appeared in front of their eyes.

.

Among the mountains, who could have imagined that a palace covering an area of ​​dozens of acres would appear in these mountains.

Along the way, looking at the palace, Yu Qi couldn't help but have a poem in his heart:

The eight-shaped brick wall is made of red mud, and gold nails are nailed on the doors on both sides.

There are towers and towers hidden by the mountains, and palaces and palaces hidden in the mountains.

The Pavilion of Ten Thousand Buddhas faces the Tathagata Hall, and the Chaoyang Tower faces the Daxiong Gate.

The seven-story pagoda is in Cebu, and the three Buddhas and gods appear in glory.

The Manjusri Terrace is opposite the Garan Palace, and the Maitreya Hall is adjacent to the Daci Hall.

Watch the blue light dancing outside the mountain tower, and the purple clouds growing on the Buxu Pavilion.

The Songguan Bamboo Courtyard is green and the abbot's meditation hall is clear everywhere.

The elegance and quietness provide pleasure, and the rivers and streams welcome you back with joy.

There are Zen monks giving lectures in the meditation area, and there are many musical instruments playing in the performance room.

The epiphyllum falls on the Miao Gao platform, and the bay leaf grows in front of the altar.

It is the land of three treasures in Linzha, with the Brahma Palace surrounded by mountains.

Half of the wall lamps were glowing with smoke, and a line of fragrant mist was hazy.

"What a great place. I didn't expect there to be such an elegant place outside Chaoge City. It's really eye-opening. Such a place for cultivating immortals is really a place of good fortune!" Yu Qigao praised.

"Alas, this place was the ancestral home of my Supreme Master, but unfortunately it was attacked by soldiers and reduced to ruins. What you see in front of you is just the Taoist charm left by the saint back then, and they are all fake!" Taoist Daguang

Stomping the soles of his feet and leaning on the stick in his hand, he saw the void shattering into pieces, the red walls and green tiles turning into gray, and a piece of ruins appeared in place.

"As time goes by, when Chaoge of the Great Shang Dynasty broke through the mountain gate, everything was blown away by the rain and wind, and everything that could be burned was burned, leaving some traces of stone carvings, which seem to still tell the story of the glory of Taishangdao back then!"

Mr. Guang walked slowly to the front of the courtyard. The two stone lions outside the mountain gate were missing arms and legs, and were covered with thick dust.

"The entire Taoist temple was burned to the ground by fire. Only the foundation of the house was paved with red bricks and green tiles. It was preserved, so that future generations of disciples like me can have the opportunity to see the heyday of Taishang Taoism! Taishang Taoism was destroyed, and this place

Naturally, there are saints to protect us, and no one will disturb us! If I, the Supreme Taoist, want to open the mountain gate again, I must not build an ancestral palace!" Taoist Daguang stretched out his hand to push the door open, only to hear a crisp "click" sound, and the door turned into pieces and scattered all over the ground.

.

The two walked into the courtyard. There was nothing to see. There were broken walls and ruins everywhere. In addition, due to the rain and wind for more than two hundred years, everything was in ruins.

"Sir, you said my mission is here?" Yu Qi asked in surprise.

Taoist Daguang pondered for a moment, and then said: "It is better to say it is a task than a test. My Taoist Star God said it is not too much, but it is not too much. It is just that you were appointed by the saint back then, so you took advantage of it.

"

"Your mission is to rebuild our Taoist ancestral court." Taoist Daguang looked at Yu Qi.

"Rebuild these ruins?" Yu Qi turned his head and showed an expression of "Are you kidding me?"

"That's right. Either return to Xiqi, enter Jixia Academy, practice hard in seclusion and study the Supreme Way, and wait for the opening of the gods. Or build our Taoist ancestral court, and then take charge of the ancestral court and become the next generation leader!"

Mr. Guangdao said unhurriedly.

"Old Taoist, don't be joking. We don't have a hundred thousand taels of gold here. We want to rebuild the ancestral palace. We are wishful thinking!" Yu Qi looked bitter.

"You have sold so many manuscripts of saints, and it is only a hundred thousand taels of gold, which is not much for you!" Taoist Daguang looked at Yu Qi: "The entanglement between you and Saint Kong made the saint very unhappy!"

"One hundred thousand taels of gold is not a small amount!" Yu Qineng told Daguang Taoist, has he given all the gold to Confucianism? He doesn't have those yellow and white things on him at all, okay?

Besides, he has no sense of belonging to the Taoist sect. If he is asked to spend one hundred thousand taels of gold to build the ancestral palace of the Taoist sect, how can he be willing to do so?

Although he is a disciple of the Taoist sect, he was just trying to cling to the big tree of the Taoist sect. Now that he has the big tree of Sage Kong, isn't he stronger than the Taoist sect?

"Although Saint Kong has become a saint, he is far from being able to compete with the saints of Taoism. There are three saints in Taoism, and the original Taoist ancestor is even more unfathomable. If it were not suppressed by the Emperor of Heaven, even the three great merchants, military strategists, and Confucians would never be able to defeat us.

Taishang Taoist Mountain Sect! Any one of our three pure Taoist sects can compete with Sage Kong!" Daguang looked at Yu Qi with his eyes.

When Yu Qi heard the words, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he glanced at Taoist Daguang without any trace, but it was difficult to tell the truth from the lies.

Are Taoist saints so powerful?

He was a little confused, and he didn't know whether what Daguang Taoist said was true or false.

"You helped Confucius become a Taoist, which indeed caused trouble for our Taoist sect, but Taoist ancestors did not blame you. Our Taoist sect is inaction, and it stands to reason that there is no conflict with the Confucian sect. You helped Confucius become a Taoist, which also created a cause and effect for me.

For the Taoist sect, this is a good thing. The conflict between our Taoist sect and the Confucian sect is all due to the Great Shang! If the Great Shang dies, everything in the world will be peaceful! The immortality of the saint is unpredictable, and the thoughts are not something you and I can figure out. I am just saying that you

Helping Confucius achieve enlightenment is a great achievement!" Da Guang gave Yu Qi a reassurance.

Yu Qi was silent when he heard the words, he didn't want to speak.

"Let me tell you again, no matter who it is, if they can build the Taoist ancestral court, they will definitely be in charge of the Conferred Gods List!" Taoist Daguang looked at Yu Qi with his eyes: "Do you know what the Conferred Gods List means? As long as you have the Conferred Gods List in hand,

Even Confucianism must be used by our Taoist sect, so our Taoist sect is not afraid of Confucianism being strong, but is afraid that Confucianism is not strong. After all, Confucianism is still governed by humans. As long as it is human, there is no one who is not afraid of death. In other words, most of the people are afraid of death.

Those who die are only exceptional cases."

"Whether it is Confucianism or Taoism, they are not out of touch with humanity! There will be great changes in the world in the future. Otherwise, if the saints are immortal, how can they promote the trend of becoming gods? It is not difficult for the saints to make Taoism flourish! There are many ways!"

Guang Daoren's truth and falsehoods confused Yu Qi: "I won't hide it from you. Dashang has a treasure, which is something that a saint must obtain. Otherwise, the saint could just support Dashang directly, so why support the Western Zhou Dynasty. Unfortunately, Dashang

We are not a group of obedient people. Two hundred years ago, not only were we disobedient, but they stabbed us in the face, so the saint made up his mind and started the trend of Fengming Xiqi."

"Apotheosis of the Gods!!!" Yu Qi's eyes lit up.

The God-beating Whip is already in his hand, allowing him to comprehend countless mysteries. Wouldn't it be great if he could hold the God's List in his hand again?

"If you don't want to build the mountain gate, no one will force you. When the time comes, people will naturally rush to build the mountain gate," Taoist Daguang said unhurriedly.

"I will accept this mission!" Yu Qi said decisively.

The God's List and the God's Whip are definitely the most important treasures in this world!

"Hahaha, I knew you were a master of not letting go of rabbits but hawks!" Taoist Daguang laughed loudly when he heard this and looked at Yu Qi with a mocking face.

Yu Qi was silent when he heard the words. Treasures like the List of Gods were definitely not comparable to those yellow and white things.

"Then it's settled, you must repair the mountain gate within three years, and build an altar in the mountain gate to enshrine the list of gods!" Taoist Daguang looked at Yu Qi with his eyes, took out a roll of drawings in his hand, and handed it to

Got Yu Qi.

Yu Qi took the drawings and did not open them. Instead, he looked troubled: "I'm afraid three years is not enough time. It will take at least ten years."

"Then ten years!" Taoist Daguang said without even thinking about it.

"..." Yu Qi was stunned, but he was tricked by Da Guang, an old fox.

Daguang would never tell Yu Qi that life in the Taoist sect was hard. The old people who were cheated by the big merchants were all gone. Now that he is out of the mountain, although he has some background, he still lives a miserable life.

If this was not the case, he would not be tempted by the list of gods and ask Yu Qi to rebuild the ancestral court.

Everyone in the world knew that Yu Qi was rich, so the Taoist sect naturally set its sights on Yu Qi.

One hundred thousand taels of gold, which is equivalent to one million taels of silver, may not be able to build a Taoist temple. Although Taomen supports Xiqi, Xiqi cannot spend one million taels of silver to build a palace for Taomen.

Xibohou is known as the sage and sage of Xiqi, and he relies on helping the people. Xiqi's money is not enough to help the people, so where can there be surplus food to lend to Taoist sects?

If life in a Taoist sect had not been miserable, would Taoist priests, big and small, have had to go hungry in the Sanqing Taoist Temple?

"With the current situation between Dashang and Taoism, if I build a Taoist temple, I wonder if the King of Humans will target me..." Yu Qi hesitated for a moment.

"Don't worry, just build with confidence. The imperial court has granted amnesty to the world. It's not a major matter of treason. Otherwise, at this critical time, the great merchants will never be meddlesome and will never conflict with our Taoist sect!" Daguang Taoist

Smile softly.
