At Dongtianmen, Li Changshou hurried back sitting on Jinpeng's back, directly revealing the water god's divine power treasure that cannot be faked.
All the heavenly generals were taken aback for a moment, and then they all moved forward to greet him.
"Master Xingjun!"
"Xing Jun, you are finally back!"
"Meet Xingjun!"
The scene was a bit chaotic, but Li Changshou did not answer, his face was tense, and he nodded to several heavenly generals, and his figure flashed into the East Heaven Gate.
Li Changshou did not dare to delay any more because Daozu issued the invitation letter of "invoking the master and inquiring about the crime", so he had to bid farewell to Yunxiao in a hurry.
Uncle Zhao saw that Li Changshou looked anxious, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just made an appointment to have a drink together later, so he went to Sanxian Island for a visit.
Daozu invited him to Zixiao Palace to teach him a lesson about such things, so he couldn't tell Yunxiao, lest she worry too much.
After all, Yun Xiao already knew a lot at this time, including the existence of that Senior Lang.
After entering the East Heaven Gate, Li Changshou didn't hide his aura, but took the initiative to spread his Dao Yun, swaggering and flying towards the nine heavens.
Fly as fast as you can;
You can make as much noise as you can.
From the deepest part of the Nine Heavens, one can find the way to Zixiao Palace.
—The premise is that Zixiao Palace wants to be found.
Li Changshou's figure turned into a daytime comet, heading straight to the deepest part of Tianque!
Full of urgency.
When he decided to let Kunpeng swallow the primordial purple energy, Li Changshou had already thought of various subsequent situations.
If you don't plan to move, it is a big taboo to teach steadily.
The main reason why Li Changshou made up his mind to fight against the will of Taoist ancestor and Heavenly Dao at this time, and not to accept this ray of primordial purple qi, was that he was sure that he would not be killed by Heavenly Dao for rejecting the purple qi.
The reason for this is very complicated to explain, but it can be simply understood as—
He is still useful.
Therefore, Li Changshou understood at that time that after he had dealt with Hongmeng Ziqi and Kunpeng's return to the Great Desolation, there was a high probability that he would suffer a wave of punishment.
The most serious situation is actually the punishment from heaven, Dao Patriarch and Master Dao didn't give him any reminder, he beat himself to serious injury, as a warning to everyone else.
This time Zixiao Palace summoned him, Dao Patriarch and Master Patriarch seemed to be in a rage, but careful reading of these two sentences gave him enough room to maneuver.
The implication of Daozu's words was to ask him to find a suitable reason so that everyone could save face.
Rejecting the Primordial Purple Qi is refusing to be bound with the Dao of Heaven;
In today's prehistoric world, the nature of this matter can be very bad, or it can be turned into a small matter, and finally nothing happens.
If I can't give an answer today that satisfies Tiandao and Master Daozu, my subsequent plans will be affected.
This is not a game, but a choice made by Li Changshou.
Li Changshou would never feel that he is now qualified to compete with Heavenly Dao and Daozu, and he is still far behind in all aspects.
Flying to Jiuchongtian, Li Changshou suddenly realized.
The message contained in that ray of Primordial Purple Qi, that is, the fact that Zhao Gongming was robbed, was probably added to the Primordial Purple Qi by the Dao Patriarch at the moment when Kunpeng swallowed him and the Primordial Purple Qi.
Is it a warning to myself
Li Changshou couldn't be sure about the specifics at this time. He could only see the severity of Daozu's next punishment and what he said to himself.
Um…
It's better not to have such a shameful thing like a slap on the buttocks by God, this time he should go to Zixiao Palace by himself, and he doesn't have to call anyone else.
"Chang Geng!"
Suddenly a cry came from beside his ear, Li Changshou stopped and turned his head to look, only to see the Jade Emperor coming from the side in the form of a cloud, with a worried look in his eyes.
Obviously, Quandong really understood this time.
This place is misty and misty, and there is no one else around, Li Changshou bowed his head and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"I'm waiting for you," Quan Tong asked with a serious face, "Do you want me to accompany you to Zixiao Palace?"
After saying that, Quan Dong winked at Li Changshou.
Li Changshou said with a smile: "The summoning by the master should only be a few words of admonition, you don't have to worry about it, Your Majesty.
Alas, it was also the little god who was impatient at the time. He didn't expect the real primordial purple energy to suddenly appear in the world. He was eager to show up and chase him, but he almost let Kunpeng go.
In the end, there was no way to separate the Primordial Purple Qi from Kunpeng Primordial Spirit.
Careless. "
"Also."
Tsuen Tong laughed and said: "Admit your mistakes when you get to Zixiao Palace, Master Daozu is so magnanimous that he won't be as knowledgeable as you.
Now Heavenly Court is facing trouble everywhere, it really can't do without you, go early and return early.
Don't contradict Master Daozu. "
Li Changshou didn't know that this was the Jade Emperor showing his attitude to Daozu for his own sake.
Feeling warm in his heart, Li Changshou bowed deeply to Quan Dong, turned around and continued walking towards Nine Heavens.
This body may not be tolerated in this world, but it is enough to have a few confidants of the same way.
Quan Tong looked up at Li Changshou's back for a while, then sighed, and his figure fell back to Tiangong.
At the same time, on Sanxian Island, Yun Xiao stood on a sandy beach on Xiandao.
Having changed into her own long skirt, she folded the Taoist robe and put it on her arm, quietly staring at the sky in the northwest direction.
There was a bit of worry in his eyes.
Behind her, Qiongxiao Bixiao and several fairies who practiced on the island are arranging wine and fairy fruits to cleanse her.
"Brother," Qiong Xiao bumped Zhao Gongming's arm with his hand, and asked in a voice, "What's wrong with sister?"
Zhao Gongming caressed his beard and groaned softly, and said with a smile: "It should be because I miss the person in my heart. After all, I just got along with each other for decades before, and we suddenly separated. It's normal to feel uncomfortable."
Qiong Xiao frowned when she heard the words, she was kneeling on the futon, her eyes were a bit worried.
"Brother, you said..."
"Say what?"
Qiong Xiao asked in a voice: "My sister is too married to the White House, will my fourth sister and I go there together?"
"This," Zhao Gongming really couldn't answer for a while, "it will be up to you to discuss it yourself, but it should be after the catastrophe, and you can go wherever you want by then, and you won't have so many constraints now."
"Oh, I hope."
Qiong Xiao smacked the corner of her lips, "Anyway, I don't want to go, so as not to be gossiped about."
Zhao Gongming chuckled twice, but didn't say much about it.
Bi Xiao called softly from the side, Yun Xiao turned around and floated over, his expression had returned to his usual coldness.
But I don't know if it's Zhao Gongming's illusion, Yunxiao seems to be more gentle than before, his beautiful eyes are like water, and his words are more than usual, which makes Qiongxiao and Bixiao quite admire.
The topic of the immortals naturally cannot avoid the current calamity.
Yun Xiao specially told the fairies on the island not to go out for hundreds of years. If they have the idea of going out on a whim, it is very likely that it is a robbery.
The fairies agreed wholeheartedly, whether to listen or not, that's another story.
Hanzhi sighed, "I don't know whether the reincarnation of my teacher will be affected by this catastrophe."
"The black panther?"
Qiong Xiao held the luminous cup next to her small face, and said with a smile: "Jie, Chan, and Xixi are the ones who should be robbed in this catastrophe, and they have nothing to do with him.
Don't think too much, the reincarnation is no longer the old man. "
"Yes," Hanzhi agreed, but there was always this concern in her heart.
"By the way, brother," Qiong Xiao casually tossed up a grape, opened his mouth to catch it accurately, and said casually, "A few years ago, Senior Sister Jin Ling seemed to have taken in a disciple named Wen or something, and brought him to Biyou Palace Taught."
"oh?"
Zhao Gongming asked with a smile: "Male disciple or female disciple?"
"Male disciple, I heard that he is quite handsome."
Teng!
Zhao Gongming's figure disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a sentence that he went to Biyou Palace to meet his master, leaving a trace of the universe.
Qiong Xiao blinked and muttered, "Are all disciples so defensive?"
Yun Xiao thought about it for a while, and said: "Brother doesn't have much confidence in his heart, maybe it has something to do with Senior Sister Jin Ling's reluctance to talk about them publicly."
Bi Xiao whispered: "Let Chang, Geng, Master, and younger brother come up with ideas, Chang Geng has so many ideas."
"He's probably going to deal with a problem right now," Yun Xiao glanced at the sky, "Let's figure this out, so don't bother him.
Later, I will talk to Senior Sister Jinling to see what concerns Senior Sister Jinling has.
Okay, don't talk about this behind your back, have you gained anything from practicing and enlightening recently? "
Fairy Yunxiao took advantage of the situation and turned into a stern teacher, and the corners of the two little fairies' mouths turned into bitter faces. They complained a few words and began to show the results of their recent practice.
The sorrows and joys of living beings have their own reasons, and the joys and sorrows of the world are not the same;
Except for homework, it's all life.
…
Beyond the sky, Zixiao Palace.
A ray of light flew out from the dense colorful clouds directly below the Zixiao Palace, and turned into Li Changshou's original appearance, holding his Taoist robe in front of him, and climbing up the stairs in front of the palace.
His face was flushed, his forehead was sweaty, and his eyes were a little uneasy.
Before reaching the front of the hall, he bowed his head, closed his eyes, cleared his throat, and then quickly ran over the last dozen or so steps and rushed into the empty hall of Zixiao Palace.
"Disciple Li Changshou is here to ask for punishment!"
His voice echoed back and forth in the hall, and the figure stopped behind the door of the hall stood quietly, maintaining the posture of bowing, completely motionless.
This stop is three hours.
A little cold sweat broke out on Li Changshou's forehead, and the cold sweat was directly evaporated by him;
The Adam's apple trembled irregularly, as if there was some beast here that could kill him at any time.
A little bit too nervous, but there is no trace of performance.
Until a sneer came from the front: "Why, Taibai Xingjun has become a log? What are you doing there?"
Li Changshou hurriedly buried his head lower, cupped his hands and said, "The disciple didn't dare to move forward until the master was summoned."
"Don't you dare?"
The voice suddenly became a little more angry, and scolded: "Why don't you dare!"
Li Changshou's legs went limp, and he knelt down on the floor full of starlight and hidden dao marks, without saying a word.
In the hall, on Daozu's extra-large futon, the burly old Taoist slowly 'grow' out in the stream of light, and cursed angrily:
"If you don't like the primordial purple energy given to you, you can just find another Taoist disciple to pick it up.
He even tried his best to pass it on to Kunpeng!
If you don't know, what is Kunpeng's background? "
Li Changshou hurriedly said: "My disciple never had such thoughts! When the Kunpeng came to attack that day, my disciple suddenly saw the real primordial purple energy, and immediately lost an inch.
The primordial purple qi is of great importance. This is an opportunity for sanctification, an opportunity for living beings to transcend. The disciple is afraid that the purple qi will be taken away by those generals of the demon ancestors, so that he will put aside the matter of Kunpeng!
In order to besiege and kill Kunpeng before, the disciple had already invited Uncle Tongtian, and at that time, in order to protect the ray of majestic purple energy, he even violated his promise to Uncle Saint! "
Daoist Hongjun was silent for a while, staring at Li Changshou who was kneeling in front of the palace gate, and said calmly:
"You, have you never calculated like this?"
"Master Zu Mingjian," Li Changshou sighed, "You know your disciple's temperament, you have to plan everything before you do it, and you will definitely not make a move if you are not sure.
At that time, for some reason, the primordial purple qi suddenly appeared, almost at the same time as the fake purple qi designed by the disciple.
The disciple admitted his mistake at first, but it was only when the incarnation of His Majesty the Jade Emperor reminded him that he woke up like a dream.
At that time, the disciple didn't think much about anything, and hurriedly took action to protect the few chances of becoming a saint in this world. This should be the chance of our Taoist school. "
"Ah."
Daozu smiled and said: "You mean, the poor should reward you?"
"The disciple dare not ask for a reward!"
Li Changshou buried his head back again, and said loudly: "The disciple just did what a Daoist disciple should do. Without Daoism, there would be no disciples!"
"Since that's the case, I'll ask you again," Dao Ancestor said, "Then Kunpeng, why didn't you kill Kunpeng?"
"This this…
Just because the disciple promised Uncle Tongtian before to ask Uncle Tongtian to intercept Kunpeng, the condition is that Kunpeng will not kill Kunpeng first, and leave it to Uncle Tongtian to play with. "
"Then why do you insist on asking Tongtian to take action? Could it be that you intend to save Kunpeng's life?"
"Master Patriarch Mingjian, without the help of Uncle Tongtian, this disciple would not even be able to grasp the entire plan 97% of the time.
Only when Uncle Tongtian makes a move, the disciple is 98% sure to trap Kunpeng! "
"Um?"
Li Changshou felt a flash of light in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw Daozu standing in front of him with a gloomy expression.
This time I really shivered.
"Boy, repeat what you just said."
"Only if the leader of Tongtian takes action, the disciples will have 98%..."
Click!
The purple thunder burst out, and the entire Zixiao Palace was filled with thunder, and the three thousand avenues were trembling slightly.
A moment later, Li Changshou lay on the ground covered in scorched black, his cheek pressed against the smooth ground of Zixiao Palace, and he opened his mouth and sprayed out a small white primordial spirit with several threads on the top of his head.
Daozu sat back on his futon, looked at Li Changshou in front of the hall in a comfortable mood, and even hummed a happy tune.
"Hitting people doesn't feel good, but hacking you is different. Come here, you have dealt with this matter."
Li Changshou jumped up like a carp, and grinned at Daozu, showing a mouthful of big white teeth on his dark face, adding a bit of honesty.
"Thank you master for being magnanimous and not caring about the disciple's loss of primordial purple energy."
Daozu snorted and said coldly: "This matter is not over yet, why don't you bring Kunpeng back to the prehistoric world?"
"The disciple is mainly worried about the image of the Heavenly Court," Li Changshou said hastily, "Kunpeng is a great villain in ancient times, and everyone will punish him. If Kunpeng returns to the Three Realms to serve the Heavenly Court, or if it is rumored that he is subdued by his disciples, the reputation of the Heavenly Court will probably be ruined." will crash immediately.”
"Fame in heaven?"
Daozu said coldly: "I think you have benefited from your fellow countrymen and used that Kunpeng as a way out."
"this… "
Li Changshou's thoughts changed sharply, he bowed his head and said, "Don't blame Master, this disciple's temperament is like this, and he is afraid of death to a certain level."
"You still know!"
"My disciple is aware of this problem," Li Changshou hurriedly said, "Master, please rest assured that this disciple will definitely stand firmly on the side of the Heavenly Court and will not be influenced by other people's words."
"Actually, it doesn't matter." Daozu looked a little lonely, and said indifferently: "When your fellow countryman was wiped out, I saw his memory and knew what he left behind.
I thought that he would leave Honghuang with Kunpeng when he knew he would lose, but he didn't expect...
Finally came back. "
Li Changshou didn't answer, but just stood quietly.
Daozu asked, "Chang Geng, how much do you know about this matter?"
"This, in fact, I don't know much, and I can probably guess some corners."
Li Changshou wiped his face, and said seriously: "The past is gone, learning history is to learn lessons from history, not to laugh at the ancients to satisfy the so-called vanity.
Master, judging from the clues left by that senior, he also knew that he was crazy and wrong. "
"There is no right or wrong in this world, but what you want is different."
Daozu sighed softly, glanced at Li Changshou, and nodded casually.
The scorched black around Li Changshou's body faded away, and the damage to the Taoist robe also recovered by itself.
Daoist Hongjun said slowly: "The poor Taoist actually has his own selfishness, and also has his own selfish desires.
God Pangu once said that if you want to transcend yourself, you need to give up yourself. Therefore, after God Pangu returns to heaven and earth, he is already in a state of no self and nothing, which can be regarded as his own transcendence.
Chang Geng, poor way...
I know that you have your own opinions and thoughts, but in this world, there are only a few steps left to establish a stable order, and you are the most suitable candidate.
In fact, you don't have to be burdened, and you don't have to think about it, I can give you a promise.
After you assist the heavenly court to establish the order of the three realms, if you want to live freely in the heaven and earth, I will allow you to be unrestrained. Your own self-discipline and self-love, this is the point I am most satisfied with.
If you want to embark on the road to find your own hometown, or want to escape from the world to practice, then I will also tell Haotian that he doesn't have to keep you.
how? "
Li Changshou was stunned on purpose, then his face showed joy, and he lowered his head and made a deep bow.
"Disciple, thank you for your great love! I really don't know how to repay you!"
"Okay, don't engage in such hypocrisy," Daozu Hongjun waved his hand, "Remember what I said to you last time, go back.
That wisp of Primordial Purple Qi was swallowed by Kunpeng, and the ninth Prismatic Purple Qi is not in my hands, so I have no power to give it to you.
Assist the Heavenly Court well and complete the matter of enshrining the gods. "
"yes!"
Li Changshou agreed firmly, bowed again, bowed his head and stepped back more than ten steps before turning around and heading towards the palace gate.
After walking several hundred steps quickly, the gate of the palace was already in front of him. Li Changshou suddenly heard a shout from behind:
"Chang Geng, in your heart, do I look like this?"
Li Changshou subconsciously turned his head to look, his heart trembled slightly.
But Daozu sat on the futon, with a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth, a gloomy and indescribably cold face, and the cold light in his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the heart of humanity.
Li Changshou pursed his lips, and said in a low voice: "Master, you scared the disciple."
"Go," Daozu wiped his face, the cold face disappeared, and the usual spring breeze returned, "Don't think too much."
"yes."
Li Changshou walked out of the main hall of Zixiao Palace with his head bowed, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly changed into a look of lingering fear, and walked down the stairs with his head down.
