The Glorious Summoner

796 Chapter 795-gate of all wonders

The West of the pass was located on a plateau, the East was Jue Jian, the South was Qin Mountains, the North was blocked by the Yellow River, and the pass was in the middle of a Valley. It was as dangerous as a Han Valley Pass, hence its name. It was one of the earliest fortresses in the history of China.

As soon as Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes, he found himself standing on the impregnable pass, facing the east and looking into the distance. The pass stretched for several miles from east to west, but the ancient road leading to the pass was only about two meters wide, which could only allow one carriage to pass through. On the pass Road, there was an endless stream of people passing through, a long line of hundreds of meters long. Many soldiers in cloth armor were standing on both sides of the pass and the pass with long Spears in their hands, guarding the pass and checking the passing carriages.

In Xia ping ‘an’s eyes, the soldiers who were closing the pass looked a little lazy and listless. They did not look strong and energetic. It made sense. One person had to watch the carriages and pedestrians coming and going from the East and West of the pass day after day, year after year. It would be strange if he could be in high spirits when he was exposed to the wind and sun, smelling the smell of horse urine from the sun, and looking at the sheep’s feces and eggs scattered on the pass.

In the eyes of all the pass-guarding soldiers, the most energetic person in the entire Hangu Pass was, of course, the pass magistrate. In fact, the people in Hangu Pass did not understand. It was said that the pass magistrate had read ancient books since he was a child, was proficient in the calendar, good at observing astronomy, and learned the art of astrology. He could see the past and the future, and was highly trusted by Prince Zhao. He had a promising future. Why did he give up his good job as a doctor and come from Luoyi to this remote Hangu Pass to be a small pass magistrate? he was exposed to the wind and the sun every day. Listen to the noise of the sheep and horses.

It was also because this pass magistrate was a doctor and had taken the initiative to come here, that the soldiers at Hangu Pass were particularly respectful to him.

In fact, Xia ping ‘an, who was standing at Hangu Pass, was also thinking about this question. Yi Xi was Prince Zhou’s favorite and was very capable. Why would such a person give up his position as a doctor and take the initiative to come to Hangu Pass to become a small pass order?

According to the historical records, Yi Xi was from the Mulu clan of Guili County during the pre-Qin Dynasty. The eyes had the essence of the sun, the surface of the sky. The book of tomb, suo, su, and Yi. Good at astronomy and secrets. Looking up and down, all of them were clear. He didn’t follow the common customs, but he did it with hidden virtue. Later, because he was touring the mountains and rivers, he built a building in the grass in the Wenxian village of Zhouzhi County County, Zhouzhi mountain in Yongzhou, and focused on the Dao. Because it was used to observe the stars and Qi, it was called Lou Guan. When King Zhou heard of this, he became a doctor and was re-recruited as a guest of the eastern Palace. In the thirty-third year of King Zhao, Yi Xi resigned from his position and took up the Hangu Pass order. He hid in the shadows and took up a humble position as a Xuanji.

without Yi Xi, the sage left Hangu Pass in the West and disappeared without a trace. I’m afraid there would be no Tao Te Ching left in this world. So, Yi Xi resigned from his position as a doctor and did not go home or return to Zhongnan mountain. Instead, he took the initiative to come from the prosperous Luoyi to this remote Hangu Pass. He already knew that in the future, there would be a Sage who would come out of here and travel to the West. He came here to complete his life’s mission and leave a treasure like Tao Te Ching for Huaxia, ” Xia Pingan muttered to himself. This was the most reasonable explanation.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t know how to look at his breathing, so he didn’t know when his father would come, but he knew that he should be here soon.

If he did not have a telepathic thought crystal, it would be strange if he could merge with this realm Pearl. Countless people came and went every day. Who knew that the mission of this realm Pearl was to stop an old man riding a Green Bull!

At this moment, a minor official with a dark and rough face walked over and bowed respectfully to Xia Pingan. it’s windy and sunny here. Why don’t you take a rest in the official’s residence? leave this place to us. Anyway, there’s nothing much to do here. If there’s anything, we’ll inform you again. as he spoke, the minor official even looked to the East a few times. I wonder what you’re looking at every day. There’s nothing on this road except for the people passing through the customs!

Xia ping ‘an smiled and said, ” ask all the soldiers in the pass to clean the official’s house today and prepare to welcome our distinguished guests!

ah!!! officer Guan became dumbfounded at once. However, he didn’t dare to ask anything; instead, he hurriedly went to make arrangements. Although Lord Guan Ling rarely ordered them to do anything, once he gave an order, it would be a Military Order and must be carried out to the letter.

The moment the order was given, all the soldiers in the Hangu Pass started to move. Other than the soldiers guarding the pass, the rest of them picked up cleaning tools and began to clean the pass and the official residence.

After a day of cleaning, they were finally done. The next day, Xia Pingan brought some people to the entrance of Hangu Pass early in the morning and waited respectfully.

The soldiers guarding the pass were rather surprised, because they had never seen the pass magistrate so serious.

Xia ping ‘an waited at the entrance of the pass for a day, but found nothing.

In the next few days, Xia ping ‘an had the guards clean the pass and the official residence every day. Every day, from the opening of the gate to his closed-door cultivation, he would personally go to the pass and wait for people to pass the test.

Finally, on the afternoon of the seventh day, on the road to the east, a silver-haired old man sat cross-legged on a Green Bull and slowly walked towards the pass.

Seeing this old man, Xia ping ‘an’s spirit was lifted. He hurriedly tidied up his clothes and stood in the middle of the road. When the old man riding the green Bull approached, Xia ping’ an looked at the old man. He saw that the old man’s long beard was fluttering in the wind, and his face was simple and peaceful. His eyes were slightly closed, and he looked calm and composed. However, the aura on his body was unfathomable and indescribable. He looked like a mountain from afar and as close as the clouds. He seemed illusory, but also seemed omnipresent. He revealed some clues, but it was difficult to find. He was majestic and unfathomable, yet innocent and natural.

Xia ping ‘an finally knew why Kong Zi said that Lao Zi was like a dragon after meeting him.

Xia ping ‘an took a deep breath and bowed to the old man, stopping him.

“Yi Xi pays his respects to teacher!”

Seeing that Xia ping ‘an was blocking the way, the old man riding on the black Ox opened his eyes slightly and looked at Xia ping’ an, ” why are you stopping me? ”

“Is teacher coming out of seclusion?” Xia Pingan asked.

“Naturally!”

I am the pass order of Hangu Pass. Anyone who wants to leave must have my permission. You can’t just leave like this. If I don’t let you leave something behind, I’m afraid I’ll be a disgrace to my ancestors and future generations. What do you think, Sir? ”

The old man sitting on the green Bull glanced at Xia ping ‘an. His eyes drooped slightly, and he nodded. He said one word, ” good!

Xia ping ‘an let out a long breath, thinking that he had finally left the Tao Te Ching behind. He smiled and walked over, saluted as a disciple, and led his father’s Green Bull towards the official residence of Hangu Pass.

Xia ping ‘an welcomed his father into the official residence. He stayed in the North for a hundred days. His father left behind a 5000-word ” Tao Te Ching “, then rode the green cow and floated away to Xuanji.

......

Xia Pingan held the Tao Te Ching that his father had left behind. It was as if he had found a treasure. He immediately memorized every word and drawing on the Tao Te Ching.

However, why was the world of the realm Pearl still not collapsing?

Xia Pingan’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that there was a chance for a breakthrough in the fusion of this realm Pearl?

As the saying goes,”an opportunity can not be missed, and will not come again.” Thinking of Yi Xi’s story, Xia Pingan did not dare to delay any time. He quickly returned to the official residence and began to write the “Wen Shi Zhen Jing” while reading the “Tao Te Ching” left behind by his father.

Wen Shi Zhen Jing, also known as Guan Yin Zi, was the experience that Yi Xi gained after studying the Tao te Jing that was taught by Laozi. It was written as a text, and the whole book was divided into nine chapters, including Yi Yu, er Zhu, San Ji, si Fu, Wu Jian, Liu Yi, Qi Fu, BA zu, and Jiu Yao. The universe was the Dao, the pillar was the creation of heaven and earth, and the pillar was the heaven and earth. The extreme ones respected the Saints, the talismans respected the spirit and soul, and the talismans respected the Saints. The judge was the heart, the Xun was the food, and the sword was the food. The cauldron was the transformation, the token was the object, and the cauldron was the object. Medicine was for miscellaneous purposes.

Ge Hong read the scripture, ” the mayfly is like a flying leaf, wandering in the chaos of heaven and earth; The mist was like a walking staff, floating in the desert of heaven and earth. It was as if he was in a house of Golden Chickens, and as if he was holding the seal of ghosts and gods. Swift like a floating crane, furious like a Fighting Tiger. Clear as Jade, miserable as a dream Red. The great Dao of escapement is muddled and the necromancers can’t reach it. The previous Confucians have never said that they can look up to it but can’t reach it, they can play with it but can’t hold on to it, they can learn from it but can’t think about it, they can follow it but can’t talk about it. ”

Because Yi Xi was honored as Wen Shi Zhenren, Guan Yinzi was also known as Wen Shi true Scripture, and was regarded as the fine classic of Daoism, comparable to the Confucian’s Yi and the Buddhist’s Lanka.

......

In the secret room, as Xia Pingan started to engrave Wen Shi Sutra in the realm bead, the light cocoon surrounding Xia Pingan suddenly expanded as golden light covered the entire secret room. The characters of Tao Te Ching and Wen Shi Sutra started to appear in the light cocoon one word after another before turning into golden lights and entering the top of Xia Pingan’s head. At the same time, Xia Pingan’s Secret mandala also started to undergo a great change.
