Chapter 90
.In fact, "Puo Mountain" is the abbreviation in Indian language, and its complete name is "Puo Luojia Mountain".
The Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea, surrounded by the sea, is a Buddhist holy land in Chinese history. It is known as the four famous mountains of Chinese Buddhism together with Mount Wutai, Mount Emei and Mount Jiuhua. Mount Putuo Mountain is also known as the "Sea and Sky Buddha Kingdom" and is called "the world's most pure land."
However, during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Putuo Mountain was not called Putuo Mountain, but Meicen Mountain, and Buddhism had to stand aside, which was the Taoist sacred place for immortal cultivation.
In fact, Taoist schools have a long history. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Buddhism first came to Dongtu, especially in the southeast. The influence of the people was far inferior to Taoism. Even before coming to Zhongzhou of the East China Sea, the monk Daoxuan once told Zhang Chi that there were many immortals here since ancient times, and it was not what he said nonsense.
At that time, the Buddhist legends here have not yet been spread. Instead, Taoist allusions have always been passed down by local people. Looking far away, it is said that this is the place where Taoist people practice. Now there is the Luojia Cave of Putuo Mountain where Taoist people practice.
As we all know, Taoist Cihang was the predecessor of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Taoism. Of course, this is like Laozi's nonsense and is not recognized by Buddhists, but it is widely circulated among the people.
In addition, there are many legends about Taoist and alchemist cultivating immortals on Meichen Mountain. For example, the alchemist An Qisheng in the Qin Dynasty and the alchemist Mei Fu in the Han Dynasty all cultivated immortals and realized the truth here. Another thing that cannot be ignored is that the Ge Hong Xianweng, who has heard of Zhang Chi many times.
In Taoism, there are often alchemists here to practice alchemy and provide medicine to save people, so the people here also worship Taoist lords and everyone believes in Taoism.
However, these people never expected that the generations of believers would now be robbed of the entire island by the orthodox Taoist people of the Tianshidao Dao, and even killed countless innocent islanders.
How can these people understand it? They all say that the cycle of cause and effect is unhappy, but how can they cycle like this? It really makes people cry without tears.
After Zhang Chi Daoxuan landed, he left the five-short fisherman. Meichen Mountain Island was not big. The island was a mountain that floated out of the sea, but it was lush and unfamiliar with terrain. Zhang Chi and Daoxuan didn't know where to go.
"The Five Doks of Rice Dao is robbing here. I think if I want to be here, I might be ready to enter the sea. We should look for it quickly, otherwise Santong and the others would not be taken to the sea by the Five Doks of Rice Dao." Zhang Chi and Daoxuan said behind Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi nodded and pondered: "That's right, but the island is full of mountains and lush trees. The Northern Palace Army came first, saying that it was coming to encircle and suppress the Five Dok Rice Road. Why can't you find it so quickly?"
"It's better to go to a high place," Daoxuan pointed to the top of the mountain: "You can see far from the high place. There are many people coming from the Wudou Midao and the Northern Mansion Army. Such a large man will not be able to find it. Maybe you can see the direction they are going on on the high mountain."
This idea happened to be right. Zhang Chi nodded and drove Bai Xue to run towards the top of the mountain.
The mountains on Meichen Mountain are not high, but as the saying goes, the mountain is not high, and immortals are famous, so among the mountains where some people practice to become immortals, there are monks who come to see the name. As soon as Zhang Chi came to the top of the mountain, he had not seen the trace of the army, and he first heard a loud laugh from a distance.
Looking in the sound, Zhang Chi saw a Taoist walking in the mountains. The Taoist priest was not old, and he looked only thirty years old. He was covered in elegance, carrying a sword on his back, and holding a small wine pot in his hand. He walked up the mountain and sang: "The lake and sea are half a life, and they will live in a foreign land and never return home. The glass of wine cannot bear the drunkenness in the sky, and the immortal man swept the fallen flowers."
After saying that, he took a sip of wine and laughed to the sky, with a heroic spirit in his laughter.
This person has an extraordinary temperament and the songs he sang were quite charming. Zhang Chi didn't expect to meet such a noble man in the mountains. Since he couldn't find the trace of the Five Doks of Rice Dao, why not ask him for help. Zhang Chi thought about it and turned over and dismounted with Daoxuan.
When Zhang Chi saw the visitor being free and easy, the poems he chanted also had a bit of detachment. Zhang Chi himself had a bit of this personality. When he saw this person, he felt kind and was unique in cheering up and greeting him: "Don't blame me for being abrupt, can you ask for a drink?"
The visitor straightened the wine pot robe with Zhang Chi and smiled and said, "What abrupt or not? How can you make friends in the fairy mountain? You must be as straightforward as you."
Zhang Chi has indeed not touched the wine these days. Haha, I took the wine pot and took a big sip to the sky, then handed it back to the man, and asked, "Good wine."
"This wine is the strong wine of the Hu people in the north. It is spicy when they enter the throat. Few people in the south of the Yangtze River are used to drinking it." Daoist Benchen saw that Zhang Chi actually liked to drink strong wine, and he had a little more favorable impression of him.
"What's the name of Brother Taiwan? Why did you come to this mountain alone?"
The Taoist said, "I call him Benchen Taoist. I heard that there is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this mountain. I come here with my reputation. Maybe I can have a strange fate. Even if I transform into a new world, I might even be able to pass away."
After saying that, he smiled boldly again.
Zhang Chi originally didn't believe in the illusory theory, but everyone has their own aspirations, so he couldn't refute Taoist Benchen in person, but just turned to ask: "How long has Brother been here?"
Benchen Taoist has a natural personality and is not very scheming. Although he met Zhang Chi for the first time, he felt like he was in love as soon as he met, so he didn't hide it. After careful calculation, he told Zhang Chi: "It's been half a month since I've seen the fairy mountain on the sea. I originally planned to visit the fairy mountain in Shuzhong. Unfortunately, there have been changes on the island in the past two days, and it's hard to find the return ship, so I can only stay for two more days."
What Taoist Benchen said about the island changes were 80% robbed everywhere in the Five Doks of Rice Road. When Zhang Chi heard this, he asked, "What happened?"
"The Five Dok Mi Dao led the troops to cause trouble. Now he fled to this island and robbed everywhere. Every family was robbed, and even the ships were stolen." Taoist Benchen spread his hands: "So I can't go back for the time being."
"Does brother know the directions of the five dou of rice paths now?"
"Of course I know that yesterday they concentrated all the food they stolen and the ships were concentrated in the south of the island, and now I guess everyone is there."
When Zhang Chi heard this, he thanked him and quickly got on the horse with Daoxuan. The Taoist was surprised that someone robbed and killed people in the south. It was too late for normal people to run north. Why did they send them to them by themselves? He asked: "There is a war in the south of the island. What are you doing there?"
I'm afraid that explanation can't be explained in a word. Zhang Chi just said in a general way: "Some of my friends are now being kidnapped by Wu Dou Mi Dao, and I want to save them quickly."
"Since you are on the island, you have burned, killed, robbed and looted everywhere. You should be careful when you go to the south of the island." Taoist Benchen originally wanted to persuade Zhang Chi, but he looked at Zhang Chi's face and suddenly thought about it, and said with a little surprise: "But you have a fate of immortality. On this immortal mountain, maybe you can live forever by chance."
Zhang Chi was shocked when the Taoist Benchen said the word "Eternal Life". These two days, he had been listening to people talking about the art of eternal life, and now he heard that the Taoist Benchen talked about it. He was not in a hurry to leave and asked, "Is there really such thing as eternal life in this world?"
"It seems that you are not a Taoist sect. If you are a Taoist sect, how could you not know the saying of immortality?" Taoist Benchen smiled slightly and continued, "At Pangu, there were five fairy mountains on the sea, carried by the divine ash on the East China Sea. Each fairy mountain had magic medicines. Dividing food can prolong life, and using it together will lead to immortality. Unfortunately, when Nuwa repaired the sky, she cut her feet and stood on the four poles, moved the round cubicle to Langya, and sank Dai chariot at the bottom of the sea. From then on, the immortal medicines were incomplete. However, there are often opportunities to get the whole immortal medicine, and from then on immortality, and she will become immortal."
Of course, Zhang Chi had heard of these divine and monsters for a long time, but he was not as systematic as today. He traveled through time in the 21st century and received an atheistic education since he was a child. Of course, he did not believe it. However, Daoxuan was satisfied with it. Unexpectedly, a monk, Daoxuan, was also interested in these strange powers and chaos.
Of course, Zhang Chi was not concerned about these legends, and he said to himself: "I heard that Sun Tai, the teacher of the Five Doks of Rice, had the art of immortality, but I don't know if it is true."
Although he was talking to himself, he certainly hoped that Taoist Benchen would know what was going on, and could take over the conversation and explain it clearly for him. Sure enough, Taoist Benchen laughed after hearing Zhang Chi's words: "It should be that this is true. Just a few decades ago, another genius appeared in my Taoist sect, namely Du Zigong. All the talismans and magic are excellent. According to legend, he has the art of immortality, but he doesn't need to leave the art of immortality to his disciple Sun Tai, and turned into an immortal."
Zhang Chi now knows where Du Zigong has become an immortal, and it is clearly because he was harmed by Sun Tai. Seeing that this Taoist was just hearing the truth, it seemed that he could not find out any inside information, so he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for pointing the direction today. I still have to go to save my friend. I want to say goodbye to you. I don't know when I see you again in the world. There will be a date later."
After saying that, Zhang Chi Daoxuan turned over and headed towards the south of the island.
Although the peaks on Meichen Mountain are not high, all the peaks on the island are connected to each other and are rolling. Zhang Chi and Daoxuan do not go down the mountain, and follow the mountains in the mountains and head south. This way you can see clearly at a glance and see the whole picture on the island clearly.
The island is not big, and with the speed of snow, I came to the south of the island in a short while and saw the sea from afar.
"Brother Zhang, listen, there is a fight over there!" Dao Xuan was the first to hear the movement and quickly flew up from the snow. The jungle in the mountains is lush and lush, and it is not clear to see it. Therefore, Dao Xuan used his light skills to climb over the big tree, which was more real than in the forest.
"There are two teams of people fighting on the beach, and both sides look like Wu Dou Mi Dao and the Beifu Army." Looking real on the tree, Daoxuan jumped down and said to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi did not hesitate when he heard this, and ran forward again. The sound of fighting was already in his ears. After crossing a ridge, Zhang Chi finally saw the two teams of people standing in front of him. The attacking side was the Northern Mansion Army, and the guarding side was the remnants of the Five Doks of Rice Road, which had been forced to the beach and had no way out.
But why is the number of people on the Five Doks of Rice Road much less than before? When I first came out of Shanyin, there were at least tens of thousands of people on the Five Doks of Rice Road, but now there are far less than that. They are surrounded by thousands of Northern Prefecture troops on three sides.
If you are attacked on three sides and bear the sea on the other side, you will have no way out. I am afraid that you will be killed in no time.
"Brother Zhang, look," Daoxuan pointed to one of the chaotic soldiers at the foot of the mountain and said, "Isn't that Santong?"
