Chapter 69: 9 Tian Ying Yuan Mansion
Chapter 69: Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion (First update for monthly tickets)
Thunder and lightning are the pivot of heaven and earth. The pivot of heaven is the pivot of earth, thunder is yang and lightning is yin, the pivot is yin and the pivot is yang, thunder creates evil and lightning is evil. Thunder is good and lightning is evil. It is said that all things have their ultimate symbol, the ultimate symbol is yin and mysterious, and it is responsible for birth and death.
Shuji Mountain is located at the Lianhuafu earthquake site. Thunderclouds never disperse and the mountain roars all year round. There is only one kind of ginkgo tree growing on the mountain, and the fruits it bears seem to be thunder beads.
Cheng Xinzhan rode a cloud to the ferry outside Shuji Mountain, called Yinqiao Ferry.
After landing on the ground, Bai Long'er trembled with his tail drooping down. This place was too intimidating for him.
Seeing a passerby, Cheng Xinzhan hurried forward and asked,
"My fellow Taoist is polite. I am a disciple of Mount Meizhi. I am here to see the Mountain Master Zhao with a letter from the Mountain Master. Where should I go?"
The man looked at Cheng Xinzhan, returned the greeting, and said, "Thank you for your courtesy, Daoist friend. I haven't heard that Master Wen has accepted any disciples. I only heard that there is a registered disciple with extraordinary talent. Could it be that Daoist friend is that disciple?"
Cheng Xinzhan smiled and nodded, "It is me, my common name is Cheng Yunqi. I was lucky enough to be opened to the Heart Palace a few days ago. Now I am officially worshipped under the master's seat. I am named Xinzhan. Please give me some convenience."
The man kept saying that it was rude and said, "The mountain master is in the Shenxiao Yuqing Palace of Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion. The mountain master has not been in seclusion recently. You should be able to see him if you go there."
The Taoist pointed in a direction.
Cheng Xinzhan thanked him and left.
After he left, the man shook his head and said to himself, "This is too fast. Didn't it just happen that he was listed on the Southern Dipper Rankings after eating Qi for a few breaths? How come he has opened up a mansion again? It's only been two years at most."
Cheng Xinzhan went around in circles, asking people along the way, and finally arrived at Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion.
Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion is called a mansion, but in fact it is a huge tower built on a nine-story platform. The platform is painted silver, and each floor is nine zhang high. The tower is painted purple, and also has nine floors. Each floor is six zhang high and over a hundred zhang wide. The top of the tower is almost invisible.
In the middle of the top floor, there was a huge vertical plaque with the following words written in thunder seal script, iron painting and silver hook:
Jiutian Yingyuan Palace.
In terms of momentum alone, it is far superior to the "Monument to the Place Where Zhan Biyun Hidden Bamboos".
There were nine huge doorways on the south side of the platform. When he got closer, the white dog lay on the ground and dared not move forward.
Cheng Xinzhan smiled helplessly, but found an animal shed not far away. He walked in and saw a sign next to it, calling it an animal shed. There were many spirit pets and monsters kept inside, most of which were trembling and lying on the ground. There were also some who were arrogant and looked around. He saw He Bingkun's thunderbird looking around, without any discomfort.
He couldn't help but praise the other person for his thoughtful consideration, and then he found an open space and put the limp white dog there.
The dog whined, but was too afraid to follow its owner in.
Cheng Xinzhan touched the dog's head, then found the nearest doorway and walked in.
There was a guard on duty in the doorway. The Taoist looked to be about 40 years old, with a pale and thin face, but his eyebrows were a bit thick and he had a long beard under his chin.
When this person heard that Cheng Xinzhan was here to see the mountain master and brought a letter from the mountain master Mingzhi, he offered to take him to see the mountain master personally.
Cheng Xinzhan didn't know what realm the man guarding the gate was at, but seeing him carrying himself and turning into lightning and leaping over the nine-story platform and the nine-story tower in a few leaps, he could guess that he was not an ordinary person.
There were not many people on the ninth floor of the tower, but Cheng Xinzhan saw that everyone's realm was unfathomable.
"Master, a disciple of Mount Meiji is here to visit you with a letter from Master Wen."
The guard took Cheng Xinzhan to a gate. On the gate was a plaque that read:
Shenxiao Yuqing Palace.
This kind of temple built in a tower was the first time he had seen it. Just now he had seen some courtyards and offices all built in this huge tower, like a vast forest of palaces and temples.
Moreover, Cheng Xinzhan saw that there was a wooden sign at the door. On the outside, the six words "Director, please sign up to enter" were written. He leaned over to take a look and found that on the back, the six words "Retreat, transfer to Yushusi" were written.
"Enter."
A deep male voice came from inside. So the Taoist who led the way led Cheng Xinzhan to push the door and go in.
The appearance of the Shenxiao Yuqing Palace was beyond Cheng Xinzhan's expectations. It was not gorgeous and noble, but rather extremely simple, like a huge, empty study.
There is a shrine to Leizu at the back of the hall. In the middle of the hall there is a desk, on which a majestic man is writing something with his head down.
The Taoist who led the way led Cheng Xinzhan forward and repeated, "Mountain Master, disciples of Mingzhi Mountain come to pay their respects."
The man raised his head, and in that instant, Cheng Xinzhan felt as if the man's gaze had turned into tangible lightning and thunder, piercing through him inside and out, allowing him to see everything clearly.
When he looked again, the man's eyes were as ordinary and kind as before, and his face looked very majestic with his tiger eyes and broad forehead, but he also had a gentle smile on his face.
Cheng Xinzhan took a step forward, bowed, and said, "I, Taoist Xinzhan, pay my respects to Master Zhao Shan, Taoist Master Wuliangshou."
The man nodded and said, "I am honored to be here. My friend, Wuliangguan, I wonder what brings you to my Shuji Mountain?"
Cheng Xinzhan took out the bamboo planer paper that Wen Sukong had given him and placed it on the table. The paper was rolled up, which meant that his master didn't want him to read it. He didn't read it either, but said,
"My master's request is written on this small piece of paper. Please take a look, Master Zhao."
The man took the small piece of paper, opened it and looked at it. His eyes moved slightly and he glanced at Cheng Xinzhan, but his expression did not fluctuate too much.
After thinking for a while, the man picked up a pen and wrote a sentence in gold ink on a purple note and handed it back to Cheng Xinzhan. He took a look and saw that it said,
"I would like to ask Taoist Miao Jian of the North Pole Division to find a good teacher for my friend Xinzhan and teach him the method of divine thunder. It will take effect in two years and can clear the mist and eliminate the miasma. - Zhao Wuji"
"My dear friend, I already know what Master Wenshan means. You will practice in Yingyuan Mansion for the next few years, just as if you were in Mingzhi Mountain. If you need anything, please find Taoist Master Miaojian first. If he can't help, then come to me."
After handing the note to Cheng Xinzhan, he said to the Taoist priest who brought Cheng Xinzhan in,
"Jianxian, it just so happens that Xinzhan has just arrived at Yingyuan Mansion and may not be familiar with it. So please take him to the Evil Execution Office and bring him to Miaojian. He will know what to do when he sees the paper."
Taoist Jianxian agreed, and Cheng Xinzhan bowed to express his gratitude.
The man with the Taoist name Wuji smiled and nodded at Cheng Xinzhan, then went back to reading documents at his desk.
Taoist Jianxian led Cheng Xinzhan out of the hall, closed the door, and left the ninth floor.
The two came to the third floor and entered a hall with a sign that read "The Office for Killing Evils". It was very busy inside with people coming and going, much more lively than the deserted ninth floor.
Taoist Jianxian was in front. He seemed to be very familiar with the place. He greeted people along the way and led Cheng Xinzhan to a hall. When they came to a long table, he said,
"Master, this is Xinzhan, a disciple of Master Wen. Master Wen asked me to bring him to see you."
Cheng Xinzhan saw that the head of the Evil-Slaying Office was also writing something furiously. Along the way, it seemed that his fellow disciples from the Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion were all very busy.
The head of the Zhuxie Office was named Miao Jian. He looked older than Taoist Jian Xian and was also thin, but he always had a smile on his face. When he heard what Taoist Jian Xian said, he immediately said,
"That's the little Taoist coming."
Cheng Xinzhan said he dared not and handed over the note written by Master Zhao.
Miao Jian looked at it, then looked at Cheng Xinzhan and Jianxian Taoist, and smiled even more happily.
"Jianxian, I remember you don't seem to have a disciple yet, it just so happens that you can teach this young Taoist master to practice thunder magic!"
