Chapter 493 Yuanjiao Antiquities Baiyan Cave


In a blink of an eye.

Several days passed.

The Empress Temple was as lively as ever, and the queue in front of the fortune-telling stall almost reached the walls and even the theater.

During this period, Taoist Cui would go out early and come back late, appearing and disappearing.

The stall finally opened today, and the people nearby rushed over, not being able to sit still.

“The sign is good.”

"I'm well, I hope for wealth, I'll hear back from you, and I'll have a good look."

Cui Laodao casually took a piece of signature and glanced at it. He had an idea in his mind and said to the man in front of him with a smile.

“However, the signature also says that it is not advisable to travel far in the second half of the year.”

"Thank you, Taoist Master. Thank you, Taoist Master. This is my sincere thought."

Hearing this, the man's hanging heart finally dropped, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face. He took out several coins from his pocket, lined them up on the table, and left with a lot of thanks.

"Come on, next one."

Cui Laodao calmly put away the signing money and put it into a bamboo tube on the side.

He didn't have much money, but most of the people who came here to ask for fortunes and burn incense were poor people. He never asked for much. A coin was a lot of copper, and a piece of silver was not much.

"Taoist Cui, this is mine."

An old woman stepped forward and handed over the signature.

It's a longevity lottery.

Cui Laodao glanced over and his eyes suddenly darkened.

Sign under.

He didn't rush to undo the signature, but looked at the old woman calmly. She was in her fifties or sixties, with gray hair. She seemed to be infected with the disease and was tortured quite a lot.

It's already dawn this morning.

She was also wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket.

Either he is terminally ill, or all his belongings are here.

Cui Laodao sighed secretly, "The lifespan is determined by God, so there is nothing easy to ask for in this life."

He grabbed a handful of copper coins from the bamboo tube and put them in her hands.

"After leaving the Empress Temple, there is a medicine hall walking north. Go grab a few medicines and take good care of your body and bones."

The old woman was startled, and seemed to have thought of something. She did not reach out to take the money, but bowed to Cui Laodao to thank her, then dragged a baggage and left slowly with a hunched body.

Since the life span has been determined.

Then you have to find a place for yourself as soon as possible.

I don't dare to expect to be buried in a wooden coffin. At least I won't starve to death on the roadside and be eaten by wild wolves.

Seeing this scene, Cui Laodao couldn't help but look intolerable even though he was used to seeing the suffering in the world.

Damn troubled times.

When will it end?

"Taoist Cui, this is my signature. Take a look."

Soon, a restrained voice brought him back from his messy thoughts, and Cui Laodao didn't waste any time, so he took over and continued.

Until the scorching sun.

After thirty-nine signatures were signed.

Cui Laodao stretched and was finally able to close the stall.

This is a rule he has made over the years. The thirty-odd signatures are actually two and a half lines of thirty-nine words in the Heavenly Book. Master Bai He said that he was destined to be short-lived and unlucky. He always kept this in mind and did not dare to go too far. Half a point.

Those who were waiting for the sign to be released saw this situation, not too surprised, and dispersed one after another.

"Taoist Priest, can you help me figure it out?"

Just as he lowered his head to arrange the bamboo tube of pen and ink, another signature was handed over.

Cui Laodao's heart moved.

Looking up subconsciously.

Although it was against the sunlight, he could still see a figure wearing a blue gown at a glance, with a gentle smile on his face, deep eyes, and impeccable demeanor and demeanor.

"Shopkeeper Chen?"

"Are you out of seclusion?!"

After attacking the demon Li Zilong that night, suppressing the demon's soul, and returning to the Empress' Palace, Chen Yulou took the initiative to retreat.

Although he did not explain the reason, Cui Laodao could vaguely guess that he most likely had some insights during the fight.

However, I thought that it would take ten and a half days, or even several months and half a year, to reach his level and enter meditation. I didn't expect to see him break through and show up so soon.

It's a pity.

Although he has achieved Taoism, the gap between the two is really as big as clouds and mud.

No matter how you look at it now, it's difficult to discern the changes in him.

I could only vaguely feel that the light in Chen Yulou's eyes was even brighter than when they first met that day, and the gap between his eyes was like a starry sky.

"Yes, I just came downstairs."

Chen Yulou nodded.

The place where he retreats is on the roof of the Buddhist scripture building where the inscriptions of the Heavenly Book are stored.

In fact, it is not considered a retreat.

I just felt it in my heart and practiced the Five Elements Taoism to the point of entry.

In addition, the soul of the demon was completely sealed.

"The Taoist Master has not yet unwrapped the signature."

"Shopkeeper Chen is joking. In front of you, how can I dare to talk nonsense?"

Seeing him shaking the signature in his hand, Cui Laodao couldn't help but flash a wry smile.

He had already heard from Yang Fang and Bai Banla that although Chen Yulou was born in Xiling, his attainments in Feng Shui were extremely astonishing. He had sixteen characters from the Mojin Sect before him, and a mausoleum passed down by the Faqiu Sect behind him.

What's the difference between interpreting the signature in front of him and playing with a sword in front of Guan Gong?

"It's okay, let's take a look?"

Chen Yulou still insisted.

Seeing this, Cui Laodao didn't say much and took the bamboo stick.

But after just scanning a line, he already frowned, "Shopkeeper Chen, you, are you leaving?"

What he held in his hand was clearly a travel ticket.

Except for pedestrians, who would ask about the journey ahead?

"I wonder if Cui Daozhang has ever heard of Yuanjiao?"

Cui Laodao pondered for a moment, "But the Yellow Sect?"

He has been traveling around the world for many years, and is familiar with all three religions and nine streams. This Yuanjiao is actually a sect formed by worshiping Huang Daxian.

"Yes, Chen needs to go to Mobei to find an ancient artifact hidden by Yuanjiao."

I heard him say the word Huang Jiao.

Chen Yulou knew it in his mind, so he didn't say much and just said simply.

The antiquities are naturally hidden in the Baiyan Cave, which is the Eyeless Dragon Talisman regarded by Yuanjiao as the Gaxian Cave!

The reason why I have such a deep obsession with it. One is the addiction to collecting.

In addition, he has always felt that the Guixu Trigram Cauldron is by no means that simple, especially after seeing the murals of Wuyang survivors in the Dixian Tomb, using ancient bronzes to deduce the secrets of heaven, he had a bold idea in his mind.

Four symbols and one mirror, deducing the apocalypse.

That is, the stars in the cave that reflect the surrounding sky.

When the time comes, when you ascend to heaven, you may be able to pass through space.

"Since shopkeeper Chen has already made plans, it is not convenient for Pindao to delay his trip. I just don't know when to set off?"

Seeing him look calm.

It was obvious that he had already made plans before coming to Jinmen.

Cui Laodao could only agree.

"The sooner the better."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Chen Yulou actually didn't have much idea about when to set off. From Jinmen to Mobei, they only needed to go all the way north. According to their speed, they could arrive in a month at most.

and.

Today's Baiyan Cave is not difficult for them.

The so-called demon dragon is actually Fenfeng, the Xianbei witch in the coffin, who can be easily killed.

As for the few yellow-skinned ones, they are even worse.

The mere round light magic has no effect on him.

Therefore, it is not so much a back-and-forth fight as it is to experience the majestic mountains and rivers and the scenery of Mobei, and to bring back the Eyeless Dragon Talisman that has been lost for thousands of years.

certainly.

besides.

If there was a chance, he would like to go to the Ni'erhui Tiankeng that Bai Banla mentioned that day on Junshan Island to see if what is hidden underground is really the ancient god Bao Xianghua?

"That day and night of the killing, shopkeeper Chen once said that the wine was good, but it's a pity that I never had the chance after I came back."

"Now that we are about to part ways, why not take advantage of this night and not go home until we get drunk?"

Chen Yulou smiled and nodded, "There is nothing wrong with you!"

Hear the words.

Cui Laodao couldn't wait any longer. He didn't even pay attention to the fortune-telling stall. He turned around and walked towards the long street outside the Empress' Palace. Judging from his posture, he seemed to be leaving the wine shop half empty.

At night.

The backyard of the Empress Palace.

A group of people sat around the fire.

Cui Laodao also had a rare luxury. He packed more than ten dishes from the restaurant. In addition, he almost took care of the small wine shop he often visited.

You know, in the past, almost all the money he earned from fortune-telling, fortune-telling, and gold-playing was used for disaster relief and rescuing people. He only left some money for food and drinks, and only spent a dime to buy wine to satisfy his cravings.

Being cash-strapped, he could only rely on his old face to settle accounts with restaurant and wine shop keepers.

However, how many times can we have this kind of opportunity in our life?

The noise continued until late at night, and the whole city of Tianjin was completely silent.

The next day.

Until three poles high in the sun.

Cui Laodao just woke up from his deep sleep and rubbed his painful eyebrows. He usually drank a lot, but his drinking capacity was average. He also gave up last night. Later, he didn't remember how he came back to the room.

Suddenly.

He seemed to have thought of something.

He hurriedly put on a worn Taoist robe, ran to the wing and knocked on the door, only to find that Chen Yulou and his party had already left.

Only a souvenir and a bag of silver were left behind.

at the same time.

On the official road outside Langfang City.

A team is riding on horseback.

Surprisingly, it was the Chen Yulou people who came all the way from Jinmen.

They had already set off early in the morning and did not disturb Cui Laodao. They left letters and left without saying goodbye.

As for the bag of money, he treated it as a meal of rice and porridge for the refugees in troubled times. In addition, he specially asked Yang Fang to make a trip early in the morning to settle the bills at the restaurant and wine shop.

After spending so many days together, he could see how poor Cui Laodao lived.

I was really embarrassed and asked him to pay the bills and treat the guests.

However, the Zhigu Laobaigan tasted really good. Before they left, they filled up their wine gourds and wine bags and left them on the road to drink.

"Shopkeeper, Langfang City is more than ten miles ahead. Do you want to go into the city and rest for a while?"

The red girl is wearing a long skirt, riding a white horse, and her long hair is flying, which makes her look extraordinary. She holds an arbor and looks into the distance. The North is not like the South. There are few high mountains and dangerous peaks, and the vast plains can be seen at a glance. Look to the end.

"Go with all your strength."

"Get to the outskirts of Beijing as soon as possible before dark. The journey is long and we cannot delay for too long."

Hearing her question, Chen Yulou put his thoughts aside and shook his head.

This time is no different than heading north to Jinmen, as most people take boats along the way. The northern territory is vast, and the area around the capital is not bad. Going further north, due to years of battles, it is often difficult to see people for hundreds of miles.

"Okay."

He ordered.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The sound of horses' hooves thundered, smoke and dust filled the official road, and the team gradually moved away.

In a blink of an eye.

More than half a month has passed.

The team bypassed the capital, passed Juyong Pass, and crossed the vast desert, finally arriving at Hulun Road.

This boundary is actually the Mengsui area in later generations. To be precise, it belongs to Hulun Road under Longjiang Province.

The land is vast and sparsely populated. Apart from the herdsmen who have been grazing here for generations and living in search of water, there are only wild wolves, goshawks, yellow sheep, and dust all over the sky.

There is also the endless grassland as far as the eye can see.

Most of them had been born in the south since childhood, and had never seen the scene of the Mobei wilderness. Moreover, the weather had just begun, and autumn had already entered in this area. It was extremely cold in the morning and evening, making it difficult for people to adapt.

Along the way, I relied on Chen Yulou's memory and inquired with herdsmen along the way.

Across the Mobei wilderness.

After traveling more than a thousand miles.

In the sea of ​​grassland and sand, a stretch of rolling, endless mountains finally emerged in sight, like a wall standing between heaven and earth, isolating Mobei from the outside world.

Countless caves can be seen vaguely in the mountains.

Like...

An ancient giant beast lying in the wilderness is opening its hundreds of eyes to spy on outsiders who dare to approach.

“No wonder it’s called Baiyan Cave.”

"It really lives up to its name!" (End of Chapter)
