After the fall of Goguryeo, the Tang Dynasty obtained a total of five departments, 176 cities, and 697,000 households in Liaodong, and divided it into nine prefectures, 42 prefectures, and 100 counties.

Li Tao led the soldiers of Goguryeo to return triumphantly.

Li Zhi asked Li Tao to first hold a prisoner dedication ceremony in Zhaoling with Gaozang and Quan Nanjian and others.

After the ceremony of presenting prisoners, Li Tao "had a military appearance and played a triumphant song", the whole army entered Beijing, and the ceremony of presenting prisoners was held again in Taimiao.

Li Zhi came to Hanyuan Hall again and held a ceremony of taking prisoners.

In the same month, Li Zhi sacrificed to heaven in the southern suburbs to declare the pacification of Goguryeo, and Li Tao served as the second offering.

With Li Zhi's series of rewards, there is also news that has been announced to the world.

Today's Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Tian Khan, is determined to "seal Zen on Mount Tai".

At that time, Li Tao will be the ambassador of Feng Chan.

For a while, the world was boiling.

Especially those Confucian scholars, they all call the present as the reincarnation of "Yao Shun".

……

A pair of feet stepped into the Laojun view.

Su Dawei's face was faintly ugly.

This temple is empty.

Obviously, Guo Xingzhen and others have moved out of here.

If it was half an hour ago, Su Dawei would never believe it.

But he saw it all with his own eyes and had to believe it.

"Brigitte."

Su Dawei suppressed his anger and shouted to his side.

A blonde-haired alien woman suddenly flashed out of nowhere and saluted Su Dawei: "Why don't you report it when the person is gone?" ”

Lao Junguan is here, and there have always been people from Ducha Temple staring.

If Guo Xingzhen has left, it would be a serious dereliction of duty to be in charge of Brigitte here.

"Siqing ......"

Brigitte's voice was not alarmed.

Her eyes as blue as a lake first glanced at An Wensheng and Gao Dalong beside Su Dawei.

These two people are a little strange to her.

Then, in a magnetic contralto with a slight alien accent, she said, "Half an hour ago, the people in the Taoist temple did go out, but they often go out, so I thought they would come back." ”

Su Dawei pointed to the Dan furnace in the hall: "The furnace fire has been extinguished, it is so messy here, it can be seen that it is going to be abandoned." ”

"The concubine is a little aggrieved."

Brigitte's long eyelashes trembled slightly: "There is nothing wrong with them going out, here, I have tried, but they leave a prohibition?" The concubine can only guard outside the Taoist temple......"

An Wensheng kept touching his chin? Squinting and looking around.

At this time, he said: "Ami, don't worry, maybe you really went out for a while?" It is unknown whether it will return. ”

A haze flashed in the eyes of the tall dragon: "The geese have left traces? There will always be some clues left, so let's search first. ”

Brigitte stopped talking on the sidelines.

Su Dawei motioned for her to speak.

"These Taoist priests have some means? Commonly used rune paper pasted between the walls, if it is careless? Is the damage minor? I'm afraid they will know. ”

"Rune paper?"

Su Dawei looked up and looked around, and in the secret place of the beam on the upper floor of the hall, he saw a faint corner of the yellow talisman.

However, this talisman had already been pecked by Xiao Bi Fang, and it was burned to the point that only a little fragment remained.

"Will the ban be broken? Let the Tianzi group guard the outside? If anyone approaches, warn immediately. ”

Su Dawei asked Brigitte to go down to arrange, and he made a gesture with An Wensheng and Gao Dalong: "I don't know if I will go back, search first." ”

If they say that they will come back, this Dan room is a mess and is strong. It's the same as the violence.

Su Dawei is really unimaginable? What kind of Taoist can tolerate this kind of dirty environment?

Logically? Taoists are so clean, especially the alchemy room? There is a sense of sacredness that is close to the addition of faith, and more attention is paid to cleanliness.

What is the situation in this temple in front of you? It's pretty much the same to say it's an abandoned dump.

But if they don't come back.

Is this Dan furnace still here? Although the fire has been extinguished.

Did something go wrong?

Su Dawei has no time to think about the possibilities.

Since it's already here? You must not be empty-handed.

I'll search for it before I talk about anything else.

He vaguely felt that something had happened, and he didn't know the good fortune and the bad luck.

This feeling made him a little uneasy.

"Let's start from this main hall, near this alchemy furnace, there are still some things left, I don't know if they will be found."

"I'll go to the side hall and have a look."

The tall dragon greeted.

Su Dawei nodded, and An Wensheng carefully began to search.

An Wensheng's hands stretched out, and on the thick palms, the white fingers were like butterfly wings, gently opening and closing.

People who don't know think he's playing the piano.

In the void, there was an invisible flow of air that spread from his fingertips.

Every breath is an extension of his senses.

Through contact with the wall, it slowly penetrates.

The situation inside the wall seemed to appear in An Wensheng's mind all at once.

This is the perception that there is no wall or sandwich.

Su Dawei walked to the Dan furnace, his heart full of doubts.

The normal temperature of the Dan furnace is the common sense of alchemy Taoists.

In general, they will be cared for with care.

Because it is not easy to make a fire in the Dan furnace, not only must special firewood and medicine be used, but also the Dan furnace must be kept warm before the furnace can be opened for alchemy at any time.

In Dan Dao, many materials are limited in time.

Some of them even pass the hour and lose their medicinal properties.

If the Dan furnace fire has not yet risen when it is time to refine, it will be a disaster for the Daoists.

Moreover, the prince's body has been taking Guo Xingzhen's pills.

How could he extinguish the fire of the Dan furnace?

It's so weird.

Thinking about his heart, Su Dawei stretched out his finger and flicked it on the furnace wall.

I heard the sound of Qingyue's bronze in my ears.

Listening to the sound, the copper is quite pure.

Su Dawei glanced down at the ashes of firewood below, and reached out to stroke the Dan furnace.

By feeling, he concluded that there was nothing hidden in the ashes.

I'll look back at it later.

As for the inside of the Dan furnace, it seems that there are still Dan pills.

This also made Su Dawei feel strange.

Obviously it looks abandoned, the Dan furnace fire is extinguished, why is there still a Dan pill in it?

Is it refining wasted, or is it too late to take it away.

If it was the latter, what kind of situation would it be that made these Taoists not even want pills.

He reached out and touched the lid of the Dan furnace, and his hands were forced.

There was a buzzing sound.

The entire Dan furnace rose a few inches from the ground.

The stove foot is overhang.

Su Dawei was taken aback.

His strength, not to mention a small Dan furnace, can be carried even if it is a big stone lion in someone's townhouse.

But this small Dan furnace lid was not opened.

The heaviness of this Dan furnace also exceeded his prediction in his heart.

By the way, when he saw Guo Xingzhen alchemy, the Taoist beside him seemed to have recited some kind of mantra, so he opened the lid of the furnace.

Su Dawei looked at the seam between the lid and the body.

I just feel like it's a tight fit.

There is also a faintly golden bird seal written on it.

Presumably what are the prohibitions?

Su Dawei's heart moved, and a stream of vitality passed through.

I didn't feel any threat, and there was no innate qi on this talisman for a long time.

In Taoist parlance, it is a death talisman.

There is no power.

The Taoist talisman does not look at its surface, but also looks at the qi contained in it.

Runes are dead, and if there is air, there is spirit.

Since this talisman has run out of gas, Su Dawei naturally does not need to hesitate.

Holding down the Dan furnace with one hand and holding the lid with the other hand, he secretly used his divine power, his arms shook, and he shouted in his heart: "Open!" ”

One force will drop ten.

The copper Dan furnace made a sonorous sound, and was finally separated by Su Dawei's hands.

As the lid of the furnace rises, a puff of smoke pours out of it.

Blue and black.

A warm and strange smell emanated.

The smell is indescribable.

It's a bit fishy, and there's also a sour smell.

Su Dawei frowned slightly, wondering if it was the smell of the strange body after refining.

However, he has never refined Dan, let alone weird, so he can't be sure.

Looking through the uncovered lid of the Dan furnace, he glanced inside.

Sure enough, I saw that in the furnace, there was a ball of pills the size of thumb caps.

Some of them are rounded, but some of them are so rough that they look like mud.

Su Dawei stretched out his hand and tried it, but there was still heat in the furnace.

It seems that even if the fire is extinguished, it will not be long.

I don't know if this furnace pill has been refined.

He thought about it, reached over, and picked up a few in the palm of his hand.

After pressing the lid back on, I took out a porcelain bottle from my sleeve and put the pill in it.

He didn't understand what the medicinal properties of this pill were, but some people did.

Go back and ask Yuan Shoucheng or the county prince.

Look at this Guo Xingzhen, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd.

"Ami!"

Suddenly, the tall dragon shouted outside.

"Come and have a look."

Su Dawei and An Wensheng, who was caressing the wall in the corner of the wall, with his hands like playing a piano, glanced at each other, and both of them rushed out as soon as possible.

Following the voice of the tall dragon, I saw that this guy was waving to this side in front of the side hall.

"There's a discovery!"

Su Dawei and An Wensheng rushed over instantly.

"What did you find?"

"Here...... Hey, good guys. ”

The tall dragon gestured a circle with both hands.

Su Dawei and An Wensheng were inexplicable, and when they walked into the side hall, they found that the bluestone floor had been lifted a little, faintly revealing a round cylinder inside.

"What is this?"

"It's ...... Someone! ”

An Wensheng glanced at it, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

From his point of view, he saw an old monk with dry skin, sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the jar.

The old monk's face was like gold paper, and there was no life on his body.

"A dead sand gate."

"Thief your mother......"

Su Dawei subconsciously pinched his eyebrows.

At that moment just now, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating wildly, and he was really afraid that it was Master Xuanzang who was sitting cross-legged inside.

That's a lot of fun.

Luckily not.

But the next moment, Su Dawei was puzzled again, who was this monk.

How can it appear in the Taoist Laojun view?

"This thing is newly filled in."

The tall dragon was on the side, his hands clasped to his chest, and his eyes flashed with sarcasm.

"The bricks and the traces are new, and besides, the moult is not complete...... Missing a part. ”

Su Dawei and An Wensheng had already noticed at this time that the monk's right arm, lower abdomen, and one leg in the jar were missing, but they were just maintaining a general shape, covered by monk's clothes, which was easy for people to ignore.

"I've heard of the monk's death in the vat, but how can this Dharma body be mutilated?"

An Wensheng muttered to himself, and a flash of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

"No, this monk was given ...... by that Guo Xingzhen"
