Chapter 288 The History of Ancient Ascetics

Old Bangzi can descend to reality? How is this possible?

The sudden appearance of Sandashan Niangniang caught Zhang Yuanqing off guard. He felt his adrenaline soaring, and his emotions and nerves were tense to the extreme.

On the desk, the tune of the Elvis speaker changed, and a deep male voice came out:

"I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the air, the sudden concern of friends, the memories, and the sudden news of you."

The eyes of the Elvis speaker on the table turned coldly.

In an instant, the Elvis speaker seemed to be strangled by someone, and the song was suddenly interrupted.

The air was really quiet.

Zhang Yuanqing responded quickly and bowed:

"Hello, Niangniang. Congratulations on leaving the spiritual realm and descending to reality."

No matter what, he showed his attitude first. In addition, there was a little thought hidden in his words - to test the true state of the Elvis speaker on Sandashan, whether she really left the spiritual realm, and what state she was in at the moment.

Unexpectedly, the Lady of Sandaoshan did not fall for it. Her jade-like face was frosted, her beautiful eyes were filled with evil, and she repeated:

"Old Bangzi!"

This woman is not easy to fool. Zhang Yuanqing secretly bared his teeth, and his thoughts turned rapidly in his mind.

He thought that if the Lady of Sandaoshan really wanted to do something to him, she would have attacked him in anger when she appeared, instead of questioning him repeatedly. Since she did not do it, it meant that she had concerns.

What concerns? Either she was worried that killing him would prevent the Demon-Subduing Pestle from returning to the spiritual realm; or although she descended to the reality, she was restricted and could not attack, or was unable to attack.

But he was unwilling to let it go, and the remaining anger in his heart had not subsided, so he questioned repeatedly.

The Lady's figure, appearance, and cultivation, combined with Yin Yang Sanren's secret love for Old Bangzi, I think Old Bangzi was also a beautiful woman in the cultivation world with countless suitors.

She is very confident in her beauty.

For a woman with a fairy-like appearance and peerless grace, calling her "Lao Bangzi" is not very hurtful, but it is indeed too insulting.

According to the experience of life mentors, if I don't "coax" her, her favorability will decrease. When we meet in the spiritual realm, even if she doesn't kill me, she will secretly retaliate, just like in the killing copy, she directly used my body to spy on the body of the blood pool demon god

Zhang Yuanqing simply admitted his impoliteness and shouted:

"The junior is arrogant and ignorant. I offended the queen with my words. Please punish me."

Seeing that the cold fairy-like Lao Bangzi still had a stern face, he added unnoticeably:

"The queen is peerless and more beautiful than Shen Fishes and geese fall, more beautiful than the moon and flowers. If we hadn't met on the top of the Jade Mountain, we would have met under the moon on the Jade Terrace. "

Sandaoshan Niangniang snorted coldly:

"Are you hinting that I am Yang Yuhuan, the evil concubine who brought disaster to the country and the people?"

She also knew this allusion. She was indeed a real person in history. Zhang Yuanqing immediately said:

"I am an honest man and don't know how to praise the fairy, but the beauty of the Niangniang is better than the ultimate in the world."

The old man's face improved a little. At this time, footsteps came from outside the door. She and Zhang Yuanqing turned their heads to look at the same time.

The latter's heart sank, but he was too late to stop it. He could only watch the bedroom door being pushed open. The gray-haired grandmother said with anger:

"I told you to be quiet."

The grandmother's expression suddenly froze, and she looked at her grandson who was prostrating on the ground, and said in astonishment:

"Yuanzi, why are you lying on the ground?"

Oh, the old man was in the form of the soul, and the grandmother couldn't see it. Zhang Yuanqing reacted quickly and said:

"Pray to the gods!"

Grandma: ".!?"

"Oh, grandma, don't bother me. You didn't knock when you entered the room. I will speak quietly. You hurry out." Zhang Yuanqing used the "impatient" trick commonly used by young people.

"Your brain is watt, hurry up." Grandma said a few words, then left the bedroom and closed the door.

"Bang!"

The bedroom door closed, and the goddess of Sandaoshan withdrew her gaze and looked at Zhang Yuanqing, frowning her delicate eyebrows:

"Asshole, you are so disrespectful to your elders."

Zhang Yuanqing was speechless for a moment, so he had to say: "The goddess taught me a lesson."

After a pause, she said:

"Can the goddess descend to reality?"

The goddess of Sandaoshan looked down at him, as if she saw through his thoughts, and said lightly:

"You can use the yang soul in the demon-suppressing pestle to descend. If you take out the demon-suppressing pestle in the world, I can sense it."

She sensed her own state and said:

"However, each descent can only last for two days. If you use force, the consumption of the soul will increase, and you will soon return to the spiritual realm and need to descend again after three days."

Zhang Yuanqing cursed in his heart, "Fuck", thinking that the vicious old man of Sandaoshan could descend to reality with the help of the demon-suppressing pestle, but he never mentioned it in the copy.

On the contrary, she reminded me repeatedly that I had to take out the Demon-Subduing Pestle in the dungeon so that she could sense it, deliberately lowering my vigilance.

It was obvious that she wanted to trick me!

It was over. Now the Demon-Subduing Pestle could not be used in reality or in the dungeon, so I could only return it to her

While he was daydreaming, the eyes of the Three-Mountain Goddess moved, carefully and slowly scanning the room, as if she had a strong curiosity about the things here.

She looked very slowly, and every thing here was full of attraction to her.

Zhang Yuanqing noticed that she spent the longest time on electronic products such as computers, mobile phones and TVs.

After looking at the items in the room, the goddess of Sandaoshan floated to the window, overlooking the scenery of the community and the rushing traffic on the street. She was in a trance for a long time and asked:

"How many years have passed since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty?"

It has been more than 600 years, Laobangzi Zhang Yuanqing replied:

"Madam, it has been more than 600 years."

The goddess of Sandaoshan was silent for a while, and said with regret:

"Six hundred years is just a blink of an eye"

At this moment, her eyebrows and eyes are a little soft, and she is a little sad.

From this angle, Zhang Yuanqing can just see her side face. Laobangzi's facial features are very three-dimensional, her lips are plump and sexy, her jawline is smooth, and her eyelashes are naturally curled and thick.

The details of her facial features and cheek lines are all like carefully carved out.

She is flawless in beauty. Ignoring her cold and powerful aura, Laobangzi does have the "appearance of a fairy" in terms of appearance.

Unfortunately, the palace dress is too conservative, only the height is visible, but no details are seen.

Zhang Yuanqing was considering whether to say a few words of comfort, when he heard the old man say:

"I have been to several copies with styles close to reality, and I know that the outside world has undergone earth-shaking changes. In six hundred years, the changes in the world are greater than those in the past few thousand years.

"Such a huge change, I don't understand it. "

No wonder she focused on electronic products. It turns out that she knew that these things were the symbol of the new era

Zhang Yuanqing understood her melancholy mood in seconds. He had read the records of Yin Yang Sanren's cultivation and knew that San Dao Shan Niang Niang was not born in the Ming Dynasty, but earlier, maybe in the Song Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty.

The old bangzi had experienced hundreds of years of vicissitudes, but in the hundreds of years from the Tang and Song Dynasties to the Ming Dynasty, the changes in human civilization were limited, and it was still a feudal dynasty.

Under the similar civilization background, how could the system and environment change too much?

From the Tang and Song Dynasties to the Ming Dynasty, at most, we can sigh about the vicissitudes of life and the changes of dynasties. But from the Ming Dynasty to the new world, it is a shock to the three views.

That is why the old bangzi had such a sigh.

Zhang Yuanqing whispered:

"Niang Niang, the people of Yin Shang looked at the Ming Dynasty in the same way!

"You lived in the same era as the Ming Dynasty, both dynasties were under the same system, so you feel that hundreds of years have passed, and the world has changed little.

"But in the past one or two hundred years, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes, which is a change far beyond the change of dynasties, just like the change from the Shang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, which changed the background of human civilization."

The background of human civilization. The goddess of Sandaoshan murmured to herself, and when she looked at Zhang Yuanqing again, her beautiful eyes showed surprise:

"You are young, but your conversation is extraordinary. Are you also a scholar?"

Zhang Yuanqing said modestly:

"My lady, contemporary education is popular, and young people are all scholars. "

The goddess of Sandao Mountain suddenly realized and was about to skip the matter, when she saw the young man named "Yuanshi Tianzun" proudly raised his head:

"But I am different from them. In the words of the goddess' time, I am a student of the Imperial Academy and have an official position in the court. I am a promising young man of the time and have the potential to be a prime minister."

The old man's eyes flashed with surprise, and then quickly restrained, saying indifferently:

"You are indeed qualified to be a prime minister."

She suddenly frowned, stared at him with burning eyes, and said:

"How do you know I am not a Ming Dynasty person?"

Zhang Yuanqing answered truthfully:

"I once entered a spiritual realm called 'Yin Yang Town', from which I got the cultivation record of Yin Yang Sanren. He mentioned you in the cultivation record. "

The old man thought for a few seconds before he remembered who the "Yin Yang San Ren" was, and said lightly:

"He is also trapped in the spiritual realm?"

"No, he is dead." Zhang Yuanqing shook his head.

The Sanda Mountain Goddess was stunned for a moment, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

The atmosphere in the room was silent for a few seconds, and the old man opened his red lips and said:

"I came here this time to see the changes in the world and to understand you spiritual realm practitioners."

After saying that, his bright eyes, as black as lacquer, stared silently.

Zhang Yuanqing understood, "Junior will tell you everything I know! "

At that moment, he told the old man in detail the number of professions of the spiritual realm walkers, the understanding of the spiritual realm, the setting of the dungeon, the setting of the props, the teams of the lawful camp and the evil camp, and the organizational structure of the spiritual realm in the real world.

It took a full half an hour.

Miss Sandaoshan frowned as she listened, and did not speak for a long time, without any expression.

She had learned some information from the walkers who entered the spiritual realm, knew the existence of the dungeon, and knew that the practitioners of the world all relied on the role card and the so-called spiritual realm.

But after completing the information from Yuanshi Tianzun, her doubts were not eliminated, but more questions emerged.

She did not speak, and Zhang Yuanqing did not dare to disturb her, and looked at the ancient beauty calmly.

She was also dressed in a gorgeous ancient costume. The Palace Master of Zhisha gave him the feeling of an ancient demon cult little demon girl, eccentric, sometimes affectionate, and sometimes ruthless.

But they are still of the same generation.

Although Lao Bangzi is extremely beautiful, she has an air of aloofness, like a goddess placed on the altar for the world to worship.

Since Zhang Yuanqing became a spiritual realm walker, he has never felt awe in the real world, whether it is a strong woman with wealth or a wealthy lady who married a good husband.

Lao Bangzi is extremely rare, and her aura is so strong that it reminds him of his elementary school English teacher.

He When I was in elementary school, my English teacher was very young and beautiful, but very strict and always had a cold face. If anyone was absent-minded and did not listen to the class seriously, she would hit the palm of their hand with a ruler.

The boys in the class were very afraid of her, and Zhang Yuanqing was no exception.

To put it in a more fashionable way, on this day, Zhang Yuanqing recalled the fear of being dominated by the English teacher and the shame of being imprisoned in front of the desk and hit on the palm.

After a long time, the old man nodded slightly:

"I have finished asking questions."

Then it's my turn to ask. Zhang Yuanqing immediately asked:

"My queen, I have never understood whether you are a fictional existence in the spiritual world or a real existence?"

The goddess of Sandao Mountain said:

"I was trapped in the spiritual realm while sleeping."

Sure enough, Zhang Yuanqing's guess was verified, and he asked again:

"How many people like the goddess are there in the spiritual realm?"

The old man answered this question:

"There are only a few!"

That means there are still. Zhang Yuanqing flattered:

"The goddess is indeed a rare hero in the long river of history. Well, I still have one thing I don't understand. Why is there no spiritual realm in your era?"

The goddess of Sandao Mountain pondered for a few seconds and answered:

"The saying of spiritual realm has existed since ancient times, but it refers to the blessed land of caves and heavens, not this spiritual realm. The ancient cultivators practiced by absorbing and exhaling the spiritual power of heaven and earth, meditating to realize the truth, and refining elixirs and medicines. Their practice methods are completely different from yours.

"Professions have been preserved, but before the Ming Dynasty, including the Ming Dynasty, there was no concept of professions. We classify the famous and righteous sects and the evil sects according to their practice methods.

"The bewitching demons, sorcerers and illusionists you mentioned have cruel and vicious cultivation methods, which are despised by the righteous in the world. They are the evil ways of the devil."

Zhang Yuanqing had already learned this information from the cultivation records of Yin Yang Sanren, "And, the devil and the righteous are not incompatible?"

Miss Sandaoshan nodded:

"Different philosophies, fighting and killing are inevitable, but there is no forced hostility."

As she spoke, she examined Zhang Yuanqing:

"At your age, you have already reached the level of a saint. No matter where you are, Sects, all of them are first-class geniuses. However, cultivation is difficult and progress is slow, while for spiritual realm practitioners, every step of advancement is a matter of life and death, with gains and losses, and they cannot be compared. "

It means that the ancient practitioners' cultivation was difficult and slow, but it was safe, while spiritual realm practitioners were forced to enter the spiritual realm and improve very quickly. There are many cases of reaching the master realm or even the semi-god realm at a young age, but the mortality rate is very high. Zhang Yuanqing frowned and said:

"Does the queen know the reason for the birth of the spiritual realm?"

His question went straight to the core.

"This is exactly what puzzles me. In the era I live in, the spiritual power of heaven and earth is gradually exhausted. It is becoming more and more difficult for cultivators to be born. The changes of heaven and earth are beyond human power. However, the spiritual realm has reversed all this." The goddess of Sandao Mountain said in a deep voice: "The spiritual realm is definitely not created by human power. It is hard to imagine what kind of existence can do such a feat. And if there is such an existence in the world, why has it not appeared for thousands of years." Zhang Yuanqing thought and opened his mind, saying: "Perhaps, the reason for the birth of the spiritual realm is related to the exhaustion of the spiritual power of heaven and earth?" For example, it was because someone slowly drew away the spiritual power of heaven and earth to form the spiritual realm, so the ancient cultivators could not practice. The clever old man looked at him, "What is the purpose?" This is beyond the scope. Zhang Yuanqing could not answer. The goddess of Sandao Mountain said:

"However, I have traveled through many spiritual realms and found that the higher the spiritual realm, the greater the secrets it contains. Unfortunately, I am limited by the spiritual realm and can only affect low-level copies. After the saint realm, I can only watch and cannot explore, otherwise I will encounter heavenly punishment.

"If you have the opportunity in the future, you can explore it."

Zhang Yuanqing nodded and asked along the topic:

"What was the cultivation world like in ancient times? When did the spiritual power of heaven and earth begin to dry up?"

The goddess of Sandao Mountain was very generous and answered questions as soon as they were asked:

"In the era when I was born, there were many immortal sects and demon sects. Practitioners could fly into the sky and hide in the ground, move mountains and fill the sea. After that, every time a dynasty changed, the spiritual power was exhausted. Since the early Ming Dynasty, the forces of both good and evil have declined, and countless great powers have exhausted their lifespans and turned into yellow earth.

"Before me, the world revered the past and despised the present, saying that there were many powerful people in ancient times, far superior to the present. I thought it was the bad nature of human beings. Many years later, I realized that spiritual power has been declining since ancient times, and each generation of cultivators is worse than the previous one."

It seems that the exhaustion of spiritual power did not start on a certain day. Perhaps the entire human history is a history of spiritual power exhaustion? Zhang Yuanqing suddenly had an idea:

"Empress, in your era, has anyone explored the origin?"

"Of course, but the spiritual realm was not yet revealed at that time. How could we spy on the changes in the world? Only through the myths and strange events that have been passed down since ancient times can we get a glimpse of the ancient times."

It is a good angle to peek into the past from myths. Zhang Yuanqing turned to ask another question:

"Who was the existence that the Empress saw yesterday through me as a medium?"

Empress Sandaoshan said coldly:

"If you know, you will be targeted by that person next time you enter the spiritual realm."

"I am no longer curious all of a sudden."

Empress Sandaoshan raised her lips slightly. Seeing this young man staring at her mouth, she immediately pursed her lips and snorted coldly.

Zhang Yuanqing quickly looked away and changed the subject:

"My Goddess, when I entered the mountain temple and worshiped the statue of the Goddess, I accidentally learned that your disciple, the temple priest, slaughtered the disciples in the temple, seemingly for the way of immortality?"

The old man's beautiful face showed a trace of anger:

"That unworthy descendant, in order to achieve immortality, fell into the devil's way. It was difficult to breathe the spiritual power of heaven and earth, so he set his sights on his disciples and refined them into elixirs. Then he regarded me as an elixir furnace, using the sun's divine power in my body to purify the impurities in the elixir and promote his cultivation.

"After all his disciples died, he abandoned his physical body and merged with the tree demon to linger on. This evil disciple, I have to thank you for cleaning up the door. "

Speaking of this, Lao Bangzi sighed:

"At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, many leaders and elders of the Jianghu sects fell into the devil's way for immortality. The world changed drastically, the spiritual power was exhausted, and all living beings sought survival, just like the folks exchanging children for food, which was not uncommon. "

Her words helped Zhang Yuanqing solve many doubts.

First, the motive of the temple keeper to slaughter the disciples was found. Secondly, why there was a spiritual crystal in the mouth of Lao Bangzi was also reasonably explained.

As we all know, swallowing a spiritual body is to bear the corresponding spiritual pollution.

But the power of the sun can purify the pollution, so the temple keeper will store the spiritual crystal in the mouth of Lao Bangzi, so when he saw the tree demon, its roots tightly wrapped around the sarcophagus like protecting food.

These details have been verified one by one.

"If the junior guess is correct, after the spiritual power of heaven and earth was exhausted, the queen had to fall into a deep sleep in order to survive. Since deep sleep can effectively prolong life, why doesn't he follow your example? "Zhang Yuanqing said

The Lady of Sandaoshan stood with her hands behind her back:

"This method requires the Golden Crow."

Seeing the students of the Imperial College looking confused, she added:

"It is the Sun Wandering God you are talking about."

The Sun Wandering God was called the Golden Crow in ancient times? Zhang Yuanqing understood, and he immediately thought of Princess Yinyao, the beautiful and evil Yinshi Princess, who had the cultivation of the Saint Realm.

But the way to survive was to refine herself into a Yinshi with spiritual intelligence.

The Saint couldn't do it, let alone the temple keeper at the level of the Night Wandering God.

When mentioning Princess Yinyao, Zhang Yuanqing felt very sympathetic to the old man.

Her disciples, one regarded her as a furnace to purify the impurities of the spirit body, and the other was even more ruthless, directly stealing the jade coffin and replacing her with a stone coffin.

Each one was more filial than the other.

Zhang Yuanqing's heart moved, and he asked:

"Does the Lady have a lay disciple named Princess Yinyao? "

As soon as these words came out, he clearly saw the old man's pretty face sank, and the delicate face like a jade carving, the bright eyes like lacquer, quickly condensed with frost.

She stared at Zhang Yuanqing: "How do you know?"

"Junior has seen her in the dungeon. She turned herself into a Yin corpse and has been lingering until now. She almost killed me a while ago." Zhang Yuanqing immediately betrayed Princess Yin Yao and complained to her teacher.

Miss Sandaoshan took a deep breath:

"Which dungeon? What is the number?"

I'm sorry, princess, you just have to be wronged and become a tool for me to brush my favorability. Zhang Yuanqing said loudly:

"Aphasia Village, number: 1018."

"Aphasia Village" The old man thought for a few seconds and nodded:

"Very good! She is still alive, that's good. Yuanshi Tianzun, you have made great contributions, and I will reward you in the future. "

"It is my honor to serve you, my lady." Zhang Yuanqing said happily.

Sandaoshan Lady nodded with satisfaction, her eyes moving, and suddenly said:

"Where is your corpse? This is my first time in the world, and I want to travel around. If I have a body to accommodate my soul, it would be great."

You still want to go out and play? Zhang Yuanqing said hurriedly:

"My corpse is damaged and is in the official warehouse. I don't have it with me."

Hearing this, the old man was a little disappointed, and said:

"Call Bai Lan, I need a maid to accompany me when I go out. "

It doesn't matter if I don't have a physical body, my soul can still walk in the world.

How could Zhang Yuanqing dare to refuse? He exhaled a breath of Taiyin Qi to his side. In the cold air, a figure wearing a bright red wedding dress emerged.

"Meet, meet the queen."

Before the ghost bride could call her husband, she saw the peerless and fairy-like queen standing in the room, and she knelt down with a snap.

As the master, Zhang Yuanqing sensed the ghost bride's thoughts through the brand:

How did she get out of the spiritual realm?

She didn't seem to have the intention of hurting her husband. What did she want? To steal my husband?

She was sad and helpless.

My wife, you have a lot of inner drama. Zhang Yuanqing coughed and took the initiative to say:

"My wife, the queen's soul has come and has initially gotten rid of the spiritual realm. It's a good thing. She wants to see the outside world. You have to serve her well. "

The ghost bride felt even sadder, and said softly:

"Bai Lan understands."

Immediately, two shadows floated out of the window and disappeared.

"Zizi~" The Elvis speaker came to life again, and a shout came from the speaker:

"The jackal is gone, folks, come out quickly~ The jackal is gone, folks"

"Shut up, do you want to recruit her back?" Zhang Yuanqing scolded.

The Elvis speaker changed the audio and sang a soulful song:

"You are so beautiful, you are so beautiful, you are so beautiful and beautiful"

Zhang Yuanqing lay down on the bed in the midst of the "beautiful and beautiful" singing, thinking about the content of the conversation with the old man.

Time passed quietly, and he didn't know how long it had been before he heard the security door "bang", followed by the silver bell-like voice of his aunt:

"Mom, is your evil beast back today?"
