Chapter 176 15. History of Tiangong and the Second Generation Patriarch

"Do you have to steal dragon eggs within these two days? After this period, you can't go again?" Zheng Yun asked doubtfully.

"Master Immortal, the breeding conditions for dragons are harsh. According to the celestial calendar, there are twenty months in a year. There are only two opportunities in a year. If you miss this time, the next time will be ten months later."

"When the eastern sky is full of colorful clouds, it happens to be the period when the dragons are more relaxed. If you miss these two days, you can still go to the island to get the eggs, but you can only break into the dragon's lair and take it by force."

Ji Dao opened the water bottle and took a sip.

"Zhang Ergou and others are seriously injured. Let's send them back to Tiangong first." Zheng Yun told the reality of the situation.

Even if this opportunity is missed, Zhang Ergou and others must be sent back, otherwise they may die here.

"also."

Ji Dao nodded.

"Let's go down first and talk about it. Also, what exactly is the mystery in your mouth? Does it refer to the tidal mist on Xianhai Lake?"

Zheng Yun asked two ghost generals to pick up Ji Dao and help him walk down the mountain. At the same time, he asked about other unsolved mysteries.

"It's not a tidal mist, but a gray barrier. This fog in Xianhai Lake has a huge origin. It diffuses from the main island. Most of those who inhale it are excited, crazy and trembling."

Ji Dao said with a serious expression, but then his expression changed and he revealed a smile: "But the barrier cannot penetrate the gas mask. These magic weapons in the world are also very powerful nowadays. I am worried that the monsters in the mountains and forests will go crazy and attack people with dementia. "

Zheng Yun nodded and sped up, leading Jidao down while continuing to ask about things outside the Tiangong territory.

Walk down a stretch.

He already has a general understanding of the outside world of Tiangong.

This continent is named Shanhaixianzhou in the east. The name comes from the many strange beasts in this world.

When the Patriarch of Tiangong built the dojo, the original location was not in the current Tiangong, but in the winding mountains in Xianhai Lake. The thatched house of the first Patriarch was on the island.

But that thatched house was really difficult to build.

The first patriarch and hundreds of disciples were killed by monsters and strange plants on the island without even finding all the materials. They died in various bizarre ways. Only the first patriarch was left to build a turf after all the hard work, and then was killed by a wave of The wind blows down.

Later, the disciples and descendants of the first ancestor landed here one after another, trying to fulfill the original ancestor's legacy, taking building thatched houses as their ancestral precepts, and continuing to build the mantle.

During these decades.

Thatched huts rise and fall.

On the ruins of the first ancestor's thatched cottage, these descendants started a war between humans and monsters of the mountains and seas, as if in a time-lapse photography, spanning the changes of day and night in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

As soon as the front legs set up a frame, the back legs were destroyed by monsters. Today they just took the prototype, and tomorrow they collapsed inexplicably, but they still couldn't stop those descendants.

A small clearing.

The competition is fierce.

The thatched house disappears and appears intermittently, under the scorching sun, ice, snow, strong winds and heavy rain. No matter what obstacles are encountered, the foundation of the thatched house is firmly embedded deep in the soil, making it difficult for monsters to pull out.

Until the second generation patriarch was born.

This Patriarch was indeed a master of Taoism. His Taoism was extremely profound and his Taoism was unpredictable. As soon as he landed on the island, he set up a four-sided formation to drive away all the monsters and beasts around him.

The hut was up all night.

Eight or nine seats together.

At this point, humanity has completely taken root.

Subsequently, under the leadership of this second-generation ancestor, many descendants continued to expand their territory, from thatched houses to wooden houses, and then from wooden houses to tile-roofed houses with stone walls, and they also recorded the habits of monsters.

Until the death of this founder, the Heavenly Palace's Shan Hai Compendium had already taken shape. The Dragon Control Technique and the Fragrant Sand Control Method gradually evolved from this Shan Hai Compendium.

The second generation of ancestors left three legacy teachings.

The first is to change the location of the Tiangong Dojo. When he was in his eighties, he traveled around the mountains and seas and Xianzhou, and long ago selected the geomantic treasure place, which is the current location of the Tiangong.

The second is to improve the Mountain and Sea Outline, allowing disciples and successors to continue to explore the four directions, study methods to restrain monsters, study pharmacology of herbs, and study the various ecology of the entire Mountain and Sea Immortal Continent.

The third one is more mysterious. He is sure that there are immortals existing in this mountain and sea fairy continent, so he asks his disciples to travel around to find the immortals. If they find them, they will ask the immortals for a magic spell of immortality.

The descendants of the second generation ancestors remember their ancestors' precepts.

Future generations continue to explore the mountains and seas, just like the legend of the Foolish Old Man who moved the mountains. There are endless generations of descendants.

Referring to the instructions left behind, they moved the location of the dojo to a deeper location, constantly studied the ecology of the place, and even traveled in search of immortals.

Many years later, the seventh generation of the Patriarch turned out. This Patriarch was a descendant of the Heavenly Palace. He came out of the mountains to practice in the mortal world. As a result, he became the commander of Haiwei. As a "master of Taoism", he also served in the court. Very high status.

In the legend of Qianzhou Strait, Zhang Kuixi tried to hide the monster in the shallow sea to ambush the emperor, but he was spotted by a Taoist master at a glance.

The Mingfu Pavilion failed to quell the rebellion several times, and even the whole army was wiped out and returned in defeat. However, the Taoist master proposed a fire attack.

The seventh-generation founder of Tiangong is one of those recorded masters who can protect the emperor and provide strategies to the sea guards. They are somewhat similar to the national master and the heavenly master.

Later, the Patriarch was brought back to Haiwei and built the Tiangong Dojo on a large scale until it was built into what it is now. Tiangong has also become a stable source of "masters" under Haiwei.

From then on, every generation of descendants of the Tiangong Palace was a highly qualified person under the supervision of the Immortal Supervisor, and had certain positions within the department.

Strictly speaking.

Jidao, the only seedling of Tiangong, is also the "master of Taoism" designated by the contemporary Immortal Supervisor. However, compared to the previous ancestors of Tiangong, Jidao's Taoism is still a bit low.

So this is why Ji Dao has always cared about face, for fear of losing face to Tiangong. Tiangong's past resume is too brilliant, and he can't be worse in his generation.

His situation is different from Zheng Yun's.

The Immortal Supervisor Chief has never been an expert, and he does not even need to have any magical means. Many of the previous Immortal Supervisor Chiefs are ordinary people, because this position only requires people who are foresighted, strategizing, and able to take into account the overall situation of all directions.

Only when each performs his own duties can he specialize in one.

And there is no shortage of Taoist experts in Haiwei.

In addition to Tiangong, Haiwei has many places similar to Tiangong, which can cultivate many accomplished people.

On the contrary, there are not many people who can take the overall situation into consideration.

The adoptive father was not lying on this point. He claimed to be an ordinary person rather than a capable person, and in fact he was indeed an ordinary person.

In fact, the adoptive father may not be the Master of the Supervisory Immortal Division. The belt tag he left behind said that he was the Commander of the Western Realm Capital Division. It was probably after the death of the Supervisory Immortal Division Master that he took over the Immortal Sect and the Secret Realm.

It's just that the current situation is special.

There are only a few people in the Supervisory Immortal Division, and even a folk like Zhang Ergou can join the Demon Suppression Division. The main one is a man who is educated and will not reject anyone without distinction. Zheng Yun has to learn some magic tricks.

In addition, the reason why Ji Dao did not mention outside the territory is also very simple. Since the Tiangong was changed to its current location, many mountains and fairy islands in the Xianhai Lake have been completely controlled.

Not only in the direction of Xianhai Lake.

All directions of the Tiangong, including the Immortal Burial Valley and other places, are all within the control of the Tiangong.

According to the Dragon Control Technique, the ancients of Tiangong all controlled the three, six or nine levels of monsters in the Mountain and Sea Immortal Continent.

Therefore, there are groups of attic palaces in the Imperial Palace of Heaven, and the area is very vast. The horse farm and crane courtyard where demon horses and cranes are raised are terrifyingly large, and all kinds of ecological and animal control mechanisms are complete.

But now it's all out of control.

Ji Dao can't take care of it alone.

This is a matter within the Tiangong lineage and has nothing to do with Jianxian Si, let alone asking Jianxian Si for help.

So he didn't mention it.

I just want to use Zhang Ergou to thank Laoyu and others, and slowly develop myself, bit by bit, taking back all the out-of-control territory.

Zheng Yun deeply understood that it was not easy for Jidao to support himself when he lived alone in this place. He couldn't keep the rice and fields planted every year, so it was hard for him to expect anything else.

Anyway, let’s talk this way.

Zheng Yun has a general understanding of the history of Tiangong. This is a living history book of human exploration of nature.

The Compendium of Mountains and Seas of Tiangong is also extremely valuable. It can be called the pinnacle work of paleontology. It can even master the art of controlling dragons, which shows the ancients' deep understanding of the local ecology.

Shortly after.

Several people went down to the ground floor.

Zhang Ergou and others looked at them eagerly, seeing that Gui Dao was walking out with Ji Dao on his back. They all smiled and celebrated in low voices. At the same time, they hurriedly helped Ji Dao down and inspected them carefully.

"Is Mr. Ji injured?"

"Get the first aid kit out quickly."

After confirming that Ji Dao was in good condition and that there was no need to take blood pills for first aid, Zhang Ergou and the little Taoist breathed a sigh of relief and started to treat the small wounds on Ji Dao's body.

"Master Immortal, did you invite Han Xian out?"

Ji Dao glanced around and saw Han Xian, his eyes were shocked and he exclaimed, showing a disgusting expression that was deeply moved.

The cold immortals have all been invited out.

Master Xian is still kind to him.

"The Dragon Stealer is not in a hurry. Send all the wounded back first, and Han Xian will take them back as well. You have Xiangsha's method of restraint, so there shouldn't be any need for Han Xian to take action."

Zheng Yun looked at Ji Dao and asked.

He still had doubts in his heart. After all, Han Xian was an extremely cold creature. He could come out, but he was afraid that something would happen if it took too long.

If the Han Immortal can be active in the outside world for a long time, why would Haiwei build a fairy cave? I'm afraid that the Han Immortal is also 'disposable' and cannot survive long in a normal temperature environment, so it is necessary to continuously raise new Han Immortal in batches. Fairy.

"Master Immortal, the fragrant sand can only dispel the enemy, but it cannot completely defend against the enemy. However, it is better to send the Han Immortal back. The Han Immortal is no worse than the dragon egg. There is no need to break the Han Immortal here for the sake of the dragon egg."

Ji Dao also nodded and proposed a similar idea.

They don't have many trump cards, Han Xian can save them for future use, and it's difficult for them to bring Han Xian to the island. A jade lantern is shining brightly, and the dragon eats it in one bite.

"Then go back and rest first." Zheng Yun gave the order, asking everyone to get up and pack their things and prepare to leave.

The others set off immediately.

Return to Tiangong along the boulder beach.

Ji Dao directed the journey. With his knowledge of the place, he led the team to go around the mountain forests and stone roads. There were no surprises, and they quickly walked back to the west gate of Tiangong.

Get back behind the city gate.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally home."

"There are so many dangers outside the Heavenly Palace."

Zhang Ergou and others sighed repeatedly. They almost died outside when they went out. They were lucky enough to save a life, but they were also seriously injured and had to consume blood pills to heal them.

"Master Xian, leave these chores to them, shall we go?" Jidao immediately turned back to look at Zheng Yun.

"So eager?"

Zheng Yun sighed and turned to Zhang Ergou and others: "Zhang Ergou, please take Caidester to New York and ask Caidester to guard the black jade pillow."

"good."

Zhang Ergou nodded immediately.

Zheng Yun felt a little relieved. He was worried about letting the two return alone with the black jade pillow, but he could let them guard it.

Then everyone led Han Xian back to the transparent tank, took away all the useless things, and walked deep along the stone corridor.

"Let's go."

Zheng Yun withdrew his gaze and looked at Ji Dao and the five ghost generals left behind. They were the main players who stole the dragon eggs.

"good."

Ji Dao's confidence was boosted.

He couldn't steal it by himself, but with Zheng Yun and the five ghost masters, he was completely different, and he would definitely be able to get the dragon egg back.

The seven people walked out of the city wall again.

Go north along the stone road.

"You said before that the giant turtle only recognizes objects and not people. What is that object?" Zheng Yun asked on the way.

"Master Immortal, it is a smoke furnace, but it does not exist in the East-West Heavenly Palace. If it is placed on the main island of the Thirty-Six Immortal Islands, I would not dare to go up there. I cannot let Xian Ao recognize us for the time being."

Ji Dao explained in an awkward tone.

"What's the use of letting it recognize you and me? What's the use of the loft on its back? Can it carry you and me on long voyages to the sea?"

Zheng Yun was curious and asked.

In fact, he is more interested in the tota fairy turtle than the dragon egg, because the fairy turtle is likely to be the hope of going to sea, but the dragon egg is far away and has to be hatched and raised.

If they can control the Xian'ao and ride it across the ocean, they can cross the sea of ​​mist and go to the other end of the abandoned endless route to see what's behind.

"Master Xian's guess is right. The loft on Xian'ao's back was poured by senior Tiangong. The purpose is to allow Xian'ao to drag people out to sea. And not everyone can ride on it. Usually only the ancient royal family members and dignitaries in the court can experience it. .”

Ji Dao said this implicitly.

But Zheng Yun still understood.

Jidao means that Xian'ao is a 'face project' made by Tiangong to show off the Xian family's methods...

Understandable.

Although this place is free from worldliness and is like a fairyland, the biological ecology is just like the name, with the flavor of a fairyland in the mountains and seas.

But Tiangong also needs to eat.

The dojo also needs to save some money for incense.

Otherwise, where did so many palaces and buildings come from? Even if you want to study the art of controlling dragons, you must have a sufficient material foundation. Tritons alone are not enough. Tritons must find ways to make money.

Make money, don't shiver.

I had heard Jidao say similar things before. The courtyard where Li Huawan lived was once occupied by a princess in ancient times.

An otherworldly dojo such as the Heavenly Palace must not be like a small ordinary dojo, using clever names to defraud incense and money, nor can it be like the Qianxian Dojo, which uses blood pills to make money.

As far as the Heavenly Palace is concerned, ordinary money is not worth it and is not enough. If you want money for incense, it is best to start with the royal family.

Xian'ao is a golden brand.

The effect should be very good.

The royal family members came to visit the Tiangong, watch the cranes, and ride monster horses. It was like visiting a modern zoo, and they could take a look at all the rare monsters and monsters in the Tiangong.

Then take Xian'ao to visit Xianhai Lake and enjoy the fairyland-like scenery of Xianhai Lake. On the way, we will talk about the three teachings of the second generation founder of Tiangong and the legend of immortality...

After this trip, the image of Tiangong is firmly established. The royal family members are having fun, and when they are in a good mood, they throw down a lot of incense money, and Tiangong can continue to develop.

Makes sense.

No big deal.

Even the Immortal Magic is hard to say. Could it be that this magical technique is also a cover for Tiangong Dojo to attract incense money?

hiss!

If that's the case.

The second generation founder of Tiantian Palace is so wise that he is almost a demon! He is indeed a person who can find commanding colleagues in Haiwei. With the export of three legacy instructions, the development of Tiangong for hundreds of years will be completed!

The first and second legacy are to protect the development direction of Tiangong Palace, and the last legacy is to guarantee financial support for a hundred years.

If there is no such name as longevity.

I really can’t study the outline of mountains and seas!

"Master Immortal, you seem to be overthinking. Xian Ao is very powerful. It has lived in Xianhai Lake for countless years. If it can recognize us, it will be able to visit all the thirty-six immortal islands."

Ji Dao quickly explained.

After getting along for such a long time, not only did Zheng Yun know him very well, but he also knew Master Xian very well.

Master Xian is the type who is far-sighted and strategizing. He thinks about far-reaching and complicated things and can quickly figure out the key when encountering puzzles. However, sometimes his thoughts are too complicated...
