Chapter 92: Old Books
The square table is in front, where the Great Immortal Kongchenzi sits.
An ordinary scroll of bamboo slips was placed in front of him. The immortal closed his eyes and rested, wondering what was waiting for him.
In front of the gap outside the door, General Donkey on the left, Boy with Sword on the right, and Protector Yunjun in the middle.
The three guardians looked inside together, and were very curious about what the new guardian who appeared this time was like.
Mr. Yun was floating in the air and looked at ease: "Stupid donkey! What kind of protector do you think is coming this time?"
General Donkey turned his head and spat at Yun Jun: "Bah! I think he must be a protector with magical powers of storage. Then you, the disgusting Yun Yao, will be completely benched!"
General Donkey's eyes showed ill intentions: "Then I turned my back on you and asked him to seal you, and wear it like a jade pendant on my body, never to let you, the evil cloud, come out again.
After hearing this, Mr. Yun was indeed agitated and a little panicked.
How can you admit defeat just verbally?
Yun Jun sneered: "Even if I don't have the magical power to store things, I can still fly in the clouds. How can an immortal get away from me?"
Pretending not to care about anything: "I am definitely indispensable for immortals, but it's different for you, stupid donkey."
"If there is a guardian who can make elixirs and breathe fire, I'm afraid it will be a new one replacing the old one!"
"When the time comes, I will be there to ride on the clouds and mist, and there will be a new protector to refine the elixir. What's the use of you, a slow-moving, slow-moving, lazy donkey?"
Protector Yun Jun looked at the fat General Donkey with a playful look: "Recently, you, a big fat donkey, have been eating and sleeping all day long, and you have been eating and sleeping to keep yourself strong and fat. I don't think you can be burned like donkey meat."
It’s far away.”
"It's not far!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Quack, quack! How is this possible?" General Donkey laughed awkwardly, his voice full of guilt.
General Donkey wanted to refute, but he was actually panicking. He felt that what Protector Yun said was very likely to come true. Not only was his position as the first Protector possibly in jeopardy, he had eaten so much and drank a lot recently.
, but I often saw the great immortal’s unkind eyes.
A pair of big eyes almost popped out, staring inside without turning around.
The Green Dragon boy sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, holding the Green Dragon Sword in his arms without saying a word.
Looking at these two guys, he shook his head repeatedly: "A person who likes to relax and work hard, a scumbag, and I, the righteous Qinglong boy, are ashamed to be associated with him."
Then he looked at the bamboo slip with peace of mind. One look at this ancient bamboo slip, and he knew that even if it had any powerful supernatural powers, it would definitely not be as handsome as the Azure Dragon Sword.
Gao Xian looked through the bamboo slips. What was written on it was the classic "Yandao" from the ancient times when the scholars studied in the palace. It was written by the ancient sage Nanzi.
It describes the principle of how the Great Dao derives all things, and also contains the ancient sages’ exploration of morality, etiquette, and human relations.
Gao Xian vaguely felt that this might be the authentic handiwork left by this ancient sage.
If this is really the case, Gao Xian vaguely guessed that one of the elements of becoming a god may be merit, but it should not only be merit, but there should also be some legends accumulated over time and other things in it.
Both General Donkey and Qinglong Sword accompanied the old Taoist priest in sword-fighting. They are legends from a hundred years ago. Although the old Taoist priest himself has not said much about his own legendary story, he should also have great merits.
Yunbi and Yunjuntan are the source of water and legends in Yunbi County. They have been passed down orally by the people of Yunbi County for generations and have nurtured generations of people.
This bamboo slip should also be like this. The sages have spread to the world, not to mention their merits. Generations of scholars in the world have been reading these sages' classics from childhood to old age.
Gao Xian felt that when looking for a protector in the future, he could start from this aspect instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, waiting for the other party to come to him or bump into him by chance.
After thinking clearly about the key, Gao Xian stopped waiting. He relaxed his concentration from sitting upright and opened his eyes to look at the table.
He joined his fingers into sword fingers, pressed it on his forehead, and saw the Dao marks light up, with layers of light pouring out.
A torrent of talismans and talismans rushed out like a river, and chains of light threads and talismans poured out throughout the hall, as if the whole world was sealed.
It wasn't until it came into contact with the bamboo slips on the table that it continued to shrink and move inside.
Gao Xian didn't waste any effort, he directly took out the incense and green energy, and carried out the attunement of the guardian and the derivation of magical powers at the same time.
"go!
The blue incense and green air floated in Gao Xian's palm, and followed the light and fell into the inside of the bamboo slip.
The light faded away, and the light that filled the room and made it difficult for people to open their eyes also disappeared with it.
It's just that the bamboo slips on the table were missing, but there was an old man wearing a scribe's robe standing in front of the table.
Although the old man has silver hair, he stands upright. What he holds in his hand is the scroll of bamboo slips just now, but at this moment, the lead has faded and turned into a scroll like sapphire.
After the old man stood still, he used the etiquette of a scholar to see Kong Chenzi.
"Shu Lao has seen an immortal!"
This time, the new protector spirit did not wait for Gao Xian to choose a name for him. He chose his own name and called himself Shu Lao.
Kong Chenzi nodded: "What kind of magical power do you have? What are your abilities?"
Shu Lao spoke in a precise manner: "Shu Lao can teach and educate people, teach the scriptures of sages, and the principles of truth."
When Kong Chenzi heard about teaching and educating people, he seemed to think of something and immediately reached out to stop.
"What kind of magical power does it have?" The Taoist immediately changed the subject.
The old man shook his head: "My magical power is not as important as teaching and educating people. My magical power can only save one person and save a hundred people."
"But passing on the teachings of the sages can save the world."
He let out a long sigh before continuing: "The little old man's magical power is called deduction. It can be deduced based on existing classics, and finally a new classic can be evolved."
The Taoist's eyes suddenly lit up: "I want a scripture that directly points to the great road. Is it feasible?"
Gao Xian does not need any external magical powers. After all, with the protector god, these external magical powers will not have much effect on him.
But the scriptures that directly point to the great road are still very useful to Gao Xian. These are the few things Gao Xian really needs and pursues.
Gao Xian became a little serious. If it was true, although this new protector did not have any powerful magical powers, in his opinion, it played a greater and more important role than other protectors.
But Shu Lao bowed, shook his head and sighed: "I'm sorry! I can't do it."
"This magical power is not deduced out of thin air. The more scriptures, classics, and secret techniques I have, the more knowledge I have. Only then can I use this as a basis to deduce the classics I want."
"And if you want to deduce the classics, the immortal must give the little old man a direction or a basic technique.
"For such a big but empty request like the True Scripture that points directly to the great road, I apologize that Mr. Shu is unable to do so."
Gao Xian waved his hand, and Yunjun's Wind and Rain Realm immediately opened, and stacks of books and scriptures appeared on the table.
The Book of Ascension to the Immortal Pill, the Secret Scroll of the Three Disasters, the Technique of Spiritual Sacrifice, the Book of the Immortal Flower, and finally Gao Xian’s own method of cultivating the soul were also placed on it.
Gao Xian said to Shu Lao seriously: "Shu Lao! Can you read these?"
"Please use this soul refining method as the foundation, combined with other classic secret volumes, to deduce a classic mystical scripture that can lead to the great road."
Shu Lao once again saluted solemnly: "Young man, you can give it a try."
As soon as the old man moved the sapphire slip in his hand, the classic scroll on the table seemed to come alive. The words inside crawled out one by one, like little people burrowing into the sapphire slip in his hand.
The densely packed words slipped out, and he really swallowed all the words on these scrolls, and the books originally placed on the table all turned into white scrolls. All the classic secrets were hidden in that small sapphire slip.
among.
Books are his food, and based on them, he can deduce the laws of the world.
Then he saw the old man also disappearing, leaving only the sapphire slip on the ground.
