Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 78 The Virgin
The road to Yaoshan was not as easy as imagined. When Li Lijun and his party arrived at the town at the foot of the mountain, the sun had already set, so they had to stay in a hotel in the town.

There are quite a few guests staying in the hotel, basically either pilgrims who come to pay homage to the Virgin Mary, or tourists who come to enjoy the autumn scenery of famous mountains.In the evening, everyone gathered in the lobby to eat and drink, talking and laughing, it was very lively.After Ding Wulang arranged Li Lijun's accommodation, he took a few subordinates to the lobby to inquire about the news.Li Lijun stayed in the guest room, washed up briefly, then excused herself to be tired and wanted to rest, and sent out everyone around her.

She quietly released three paper cranes through the window.

There are invisibility runes painted on the paper crane, and most people can't see it. In the evening, the light outside is dim, and the north wind is blowing, which also well conceals the little movement made by it flying in the wind.Li Lijun dripped the fairy dew into pure water, put it in a silver bowl, and placed it in front of the bronze mirror.Through the matching formulas and gestures, the picture that can be seen in the eyes of the paper crane gradually emerged in the bronze mirror.

At this time, the sky was not yet completely dark, and the mountain road could be vaguely seen.Paper cranes wind their way up the mountain path, and you can also see sporadic pilgrims walking down the mountain with baskets on their hands.The paper crane lowered a little, and eavesdropped on the conversation among the women. It turned out that they were from nearby villages, and they specially went to the Temple of the Holy Mother on the mountain to burn incense and pray for a child. They also said that the Holy Mother was very efficacious. Will be pregnant soon.

Mr. Li Li was thoughtful, thinking of the pure spiritual energy on the top of Yaoshan Mountain and the golden light, he suspected that the master was practicing meritorious deeds.Do you want to give birth to your wife?If it is really effective, then the golden light should be the golden light of merit?

She doesn't know much about Shinto, but she guessed that the way of cultivating Shinto in this small world of Xuantang is different from the way of becoming a god in the world of high demons in the West, so it shouldn't be so weird.What's more, the priesthood is mainly about keeping safe and having children, and it's just a collection of incense. It shouldn't be too high, and it's unlikely to do bad things, so as not to damage his own practice.

I thought so, but Li Lijun still didn't dare to make mistakes, and carefully controlled the paper cranes to fly up the mountain road, hiding her figure as much as possible in the branches and leaves of the trees planted by the roadside.After a while, the sky was completely dark, but the moonlight was still bright enough for her to see the mountains, rocks and trees clearly through the bronze mirror.After an unknown amount of time, several lights appeared in front of her eyes. When she looked closely, there was a small temple not far in front of her. The lights came from the temple gate.

The temple is not big, but the incense inside is quite prosperous.At night, although there are a few people walking around in the temple, they are obviously ordinary temple officials, handymen and other staff.

Li Lijun carefully observed these people for a while, and felt that they did not seem to be practitioners, so he manipulated the paper cranes and flew around the Temple of Our Lady, and even went to the house where the temple servants and others lived. Finding something strange, I couldn't help but wonder.

Where is the master of Mount Yao?Is He the "Holy Mother of Mount Yao" and "Mrs. Lingying" that pilgrims call?

Li Lijun went around twice but didn't find anyone, so after thinking about it, he simply let the paper crane continue to fly towards the top of the mountain.Since she saw the spiritual energy on the top of the mountain, there would be some traces on the top of the mountain.The obvious golden light of merit was shining there, she couldn't have found the wrong place.

It's just that the paper crane had just ascended for a short time, before it reached the top of the mountain, it suddenly stopped there, unable to fly no matter what.

Li Lijun yelled inwardly that he was not good, and wanted to quickly withdraw his magic power, when a jade hand suddenly appeared in his vision, emitting a soft white light, pinched the paper crane's head with two fingers, and flicked it out lightly.The paper crane was flipped outward in an instant, and the field of vision was also in chaos.Li Lijun withdrew his mana, and performed a few moves on the bronze mirror and the silver bowl, and saw the water in the silver bowl swaying slightly, forming tiny fish scale ripples, and the surface of the bronze mirror shone slightly.After a while, the silver bowl calmed down, and the bronze mirror continued to shine.Most of the water in the silver bowl had already disappeared.

Li Lijun stared at the silver bowl and made sure that the water in it was still there. Then he withdrew his mana, turned the bronze mirror upside down on the table, poured a few drops of fairy dew into the silver bowl again, and then put the things there for the time being. do not care.

She asked Erhong to bring dinner over, and ate it leisurely.After sending people away after dinner, she was able to be alone again, so she set up the bronze mirror again and put the silver bowl in front of the mirror.

The vision was restored, and the paper crane seemed to be undamaged, just stuck between the branches.She carefully manipulated the paper crane to fly away from the canopy of the tree, and re-launched to observe the current location, only to realize that it was still on Mount Yao, just beside the road in front of the Temple of the Holy Mother.

Li Lijun thought for a while, then moved the paper crane to a farther place, so that the lights of the Notre Dame Temple could not be seen in the field of vision, so he let it stop by a rock, then manipulated the other paper crane, and moved the paper crane forward The location flew over.

Through the eyes of the second paper crane, she clearly saw that the first paper crane was indeed not damaged, even the runes on it were intact, except that the position of the crane's head was slightly crooked, as if it had been pinched by someone. There was some dust on one side of the wing, probably from getting stuck between the branches. The whole crane was not much different from the appearance when it just set off.

Li Lijun knew in her heart that she must have seen the real master just now, maybe it was the "Sacred Mother of Yaoshan", and the other party didn't want her to see the situation on the top of the mountain, so she flicked the paper crane away.However, this Holy Mother has a good temper, she just flicked away the paper crane, she didn't damage the paper crane, she didn't track it down, and she didn't hit anyone...

Li Lijun touched his nose, feeling a little pain in his conscience.Was her attitude too disrespectful for such a gentle and good god?

Although he felt sorry in his heart, Li Lijun still didn't intend to expose himself.She flew the two paper cranes to the west of the cliff, found a gap to hide in, and then withdrew her mana, and the matter was over.

She originally refracted the vision of the paper crane through the water in the silver bowl, and then reflected the image on the water surface in the silver bowl through the bronze mirror, so that she could see what the paper crane's eyes observed.With these triple insurances, although the Holy Mother of Mount Yao followed the paper crane to check, she was blocked at the silver bowl level, and she didn't even hit the bronze mirror level. Naturally, it was impossible to find out that Li Lijun was behind her. snooping.

Li Lijun quickly put away the bronze mirror and silver bowl, and didn't release any other paper cranes, just slept peacefully and obediently all night.When she got up the next day, she also offered to go up the mountain to pay homage to the Holy Mother, so as to pray for her deceased mother and the rest of the family. She was a normal little girl who came to burn incense and pray for blessings.

After fulfilling the etiquette, she took people to the Holy Mother Temple on the mountain to offer incense, patiently listened to the story of the Holy Mother introduced by the temple blessing, and gave a lot of money for the sesame oil.Until she sat in the carriage and the group left the boundary of Yaoshan, the Holy Mother did not move at all.Li Lijun knew that he had passed this test.

She took a look at the nearby cemetery candidates on the list, picked out a few minor problems, rejected them all, and turned back to Fengxian County.

Apart from Mount Yao, there are no other spiritual mountains or fairy peaks to go to in this area.It's impossible for her to compete with the Holy Mother for territory, so it's better not to bury Mrs. Chen nearby, right?What's more, the Temple of the Notre Dame is so prosperous that there is no quiet place nearby that is suitable for cultivation.

Going further to the northeast, that is the location of several imperial tombs in the future.Considering that the fate of these imperial tombs is not very good, Li Lijun didn't want to get too close to them, so he had to turn his gaze to the northwest.

There are still quite a few mountains in this area, so she might as well look over one by one.She didn't believe that she would be so unlucky every time that she happened to meet the Lord's Lingshan.

　It took a little longer to do nucleic acid than expected, and the update time was a few minutes late, sorry.
