Pingshou County·Woniu Village
It is only ten miles to the river side. There are roads, stone bridges, and a small port along the way. There are fishing boats, a cargo ship, and a large ship parked on it. The big ship is moored, rising and falling with the water, swaying slightly.
On the shore, Ye Suer came to see her off. This week, the two of them were inseparable, entangled but couldn't get enough.
The two of them were talking carefully, and the wind blew up, blowing up Ye Suer's black hair. She looked at Pei Ziyun and stretched out her hand to straighten Pei Ziyun's clothes.
"Husband, once you leave, come back as soon as possible."
Pei Ziyun stretched out his hand and held Ye Suer's soft hand. Ye Suer's hands were white and tender, and the green onions were long and piercing her heart. Pei Ziyun smiled and said, "Come to Liujin Island with me. I am overseas." With the foundation of our relationship, we can have a child and we can live happily overseas."
Hearing this, Ye Su'er was a little pushy and tired: "Husband, I'll go next time. I'm feeling a little unwell. I'm afraid I won't be able to take the car or boat."
After Pei Ziyun heard this, he realized that it was a shirk. If you are successful in practicing Taoism, there are still patients. It's just because there are people you don't want to see.
"Yes." Pei Ziyun sighed and nodded: "Su'er, mother needs you to take care of her. Thank you for your hard work."
He said, stroking his long hair and holding her in his arms.
Ye Su'er leaned on her chest, feeling broad and warm in her gut. She felt sad when she thought that there was another person to share her with. She bit her lip lightly, stood up, and forced a smile: "Husband, taking care of my mother is my duty. You are needed outside. I know everything about shelter from wind and rain, so don’t worry, your family won’t be a burden to you.”
Seeing Ye Su'er's dignity and beauty, Pei Ziyun felt a little guilty. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he had to turn to Pei Qian: "Mother, take care of yourself."
Then, he got on the boat and set off. Following the boatman's shout, the anchor was pulled up and the sail was set. The layers of water were knocked apart and he moved forward.
Ye Su'er quietly watched the ship go away, biting her lips lightly, her eyes full of reluctance, touching her lower abdomen, Pei Qian stepped forward and grabbed Ye Su'er's hand, feeling a little distressed, and said, "Yun'er is going to Liujin Island. You should go with me, you are the daughter-in-law of my Pei family!"
"Mom, the little princess is a member of the royal family and may be of great help to my husband, but I don't want to see her."
Saying this, the ship moved forward, getting further and further away, and disappeared into the distance.
vessel
The little princess was married to ten soldiers, five of whom stood at attention with their swords in hand. They looked a bit majestic, and the ships along the way gave way.
Pei Ziyun sat in the study, sipping a sip of hot tea, and listened quietly to Ren Wei's report: "True Lord, news came from the capital that the front line was defeated, all the imperial envoys died in the battle, and the imperial court lost 30,000 troops."
"It is said that King Lu was eaten by monsters a long time ago, but now it is actually monsters causing trouble. The imperial court has urgently summoned Taoists from all over the world to come to the capital, and they are already halfway there."
Saying this, Ren Wei slightly leaned over and handed over the information. Looking at the information, Pei Ziyun thought for a moment, chuckled lightly, and smiled indifferently: "King Lu is dead? This is a lie. King Lu himself is already a monster. , but the court made it up for the sake of face - of course, from another angle, it can also be said that King Lu is dead. After all, in the court's sense, King Lu, who is a human being and a prince, indeed no longer exists."
After saying that, he smiled again: "There are monsters, which are the most attractive to the people. Now the story book is a bestseller, right?"
Listening to this, Ren Wei couldn't help but smile: "My lord, it is true. It is said that in the capital, the sales of books involving the lord have more than doubled than before. There are also rumors among the people that King Lu was eaten by a monster and replaced him. As soon as the true king came out, The monster returned defeated and showed his true form, and the true king was recalled by the traitorous officials in the court. When the monster saw that the true king was not in the army, he immediately defeated the imperial army and ate thousands of people."
Pei Ziyun laughed after hearing this. His reputation has increased significantly recently. It turned out that there were rumors secretly about it. He was surprised and asked casually: "Our people didn't interfere, did they?"
"No, it really doesn't happen. It's just a spontaneous brewing among the people."
"As long as it doesn't happen." Pei Ziyun glanced at the case file and dropped the information on the case: "The imperial envoy died and 30,000 troops were lost. It's not a big deal."
Ren Wei was secretly shocked. He looked at Pei Ziyun and saw that Pei Ziyun was leisurely and at ease. He thought of the rumors again and lowered his voice, his throat dry and hoarse: "My lord, King Lu was originally a noble noble of Tianhuang. Now he has become a demon clan. We will not do anything." Knowing how much power it has, if the demon clan continues to attack, everyone in the world will be in trouble, and we will not be immune."
"It's not that exaggerated." Pei Ziyun stood up, waved his hand, and said, "This world is not as simple as you see. The demon clan can easily sweep the world, so why bother borrowing the help of King Lu?"
"The demon clan nobles are lurking and spreading silently, which may make things happen, but now due to a combination of circumstances, it has been exposed. With God's attention, rejection will occur - this alone determines whether the demon clan will last long."
"And the demon clan can only destroy, not build, and it can't accomplish anything." Ren Wei listened and suddenly realized, yes, the lord is already an earthly immortal, not a mortal. This kind of upper-level game has its own considerations.
Although he thought so, Pei Ziyun took Ren Wei's intolerance into consideration and asked, "Do you think I'm cold-blooded?"
Ren Wei trembled. He had indeed been thinking about this just now. Then he quickly said, "Master, I don't dare."
"I am a Taoist, and it is my duty to row a boat on the lake." Pei Ziyun smiled faintly: "And you also know that in fact, it is the court's intention to withdraw this time. I am just following the current."
"The affairs of the world and the affairs of the court cannot be solved with enthusiasm, and I am not the only Taoist in the world. Taoist sects come to Beijing in large numbers, some of which are because of me, and some of which have to do official business."
"The benefits of the imperial court are not so easy to obtain. They cannot escape responsibility for King Lu's affairs - you are my retainer, and I will make these clear to you."
"Yes, my lord taught me a lesson! I thought wrong, I am your lord's retainer, I should only think of your lord!" Ren Wei said at this time.
Pei Ziyun lowered his head and looked out the window. He saw that the spring was getting stronger. Not far away, ducks were paddling in the water, and further away, peasant women were hammering and washing their clothes on stones.
Seeing that Pei Ziyun had so much free time, Ren Wei couldn't help but sigh to himself. The master was getting more and more serious. Seeing that he was speechless, Ren Wei immediately retreated.
Pei Ziyun let Wei quit and let out a long breath, but stopped thinking about it. Standing in front of the window, his heart sank as soon as he moved.
In the dark void, the soul descended into the space, but was stunned.
It was originally dark, but now I see that although the scene is dim, it is different from the darkness, as if there is a glimmer of light at dusk.
Looking carefully, I saw that the shimmering light was coming from the space. When I got closer, the door opened automatically. The door was covered with gold nails. The wall was also much higher, about ten feet high, and the space inside was also much larger. .
"The floor is made of bluestone." Pei Ziyun looked over and saw that all the broken parts of the battle had been repaired, and there were many statues. A three-sided giant statue was in the center of the space, which was the largest statue in the space.
"Huh, Cheng Yuanzi is already gray." At first glance, it was originally the largest, but now it has become the second largest stone sculpture struggling in pain, full of unwillingness and despair, but time is frozen here.
The largest statue has three sides, three eyes, and a mouth with fangs. It is different from other stone sculptures. Although it is dim, it is a brass statue. Resurgence becomes a killing machine.
But every once in a while, a cold light flashed, and a crack opened in the brass statue, and a large stream of blood spurted out. Once it reached the air, it turned into a rich demonic aura!
"It turns out that the Demon King's statue is too powerful. It can't be extracted normally, so it has to be damaged from time to time."
Every time the brass statue was hit, it twitched in pain, struggled all over, and swayed with the space, but its huge body was still firmly restrained by invisible shackles.
The spewed demonic energy slowly transformed into spiritual energy, the special one being a very dim golden light.
"What is this?" Pei Ziyun's heart was moved, and he saw that there was originally no building except a pavilion, but now the golden light spread out, and a palace gradually emerged.
Although this hall is not big now, the majestic hall is strange. Pillars are growing, and each pillar has an animal crouching on it, emitting a faint light. Occasionally, a strong light flows through, illuminating the space.
"Is this the power and authority of the Demon King? What's the use of it?" Pei Ziyun frowned.
Feeling Pei Ziyun's breath, the statue suddenly opened its third eye and sighed: "Pei Ziyun, your fate will end."
"Hmph, the Demon King is ever-changing and can be resurrected even after death, but how long can you hold on?" Pei Ziyun was slightly startled when he heard the statue speak, and smiled disdainfully: "What are you trying to say? Do you think King Lu can turn the world upside down?"
"No, it is not King Lu who will end your fate." The voice of the statue echoed in the space, majestic and indifferent.
Pei Ziyun was unmoved and just smiled coldly: "First of all, if you can't see this day anymore, how many times can you be resurrected? Your flesh and blood, your aura, and your authority will all become what I grow up with." Material."
"Secondly, I know it's not King Lu. The demon clan is exposed, and it's just a temporary disaster. King Lu doesn't have this ability - is it the court, or is it God's will?"
"I became an Earth Immortal and survived the thunder tribulation, which really offended the very foundation of the existence of dragon energy. At that time, the Dao Lord was probably not as good as me. The knowledgeable people in the court would not be able to sleep at night unless they killed me."
"It's not just the imperial court, maybe the dragons of the past dynasties are already discussing countermeasures."
As soon as he said these words, the third eye of the bronze statue closed and suddenly became silent. Pei Ziyun saw it and laughed again: "Maybe there's more, there's also Dao Lord?"
Pei Ziyun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "People in the world are always ignorant. They always think that members of the same clan protect each other, but they don't know that when it comes to great power, father and son can kill each other, let alone fellow Taoists?"
"For internal and external factors, it is naive to kill the enemy first, but it is the golden rule to kill yourself first."
"There is only one Dao Lord in this world, how can there be two or three?"
"You may ask, why should I guess?"
"Actually, this is very simple. If you are an ordinary person, there are hundreds of millions of factors that can harm you. It is impossible to guess. But as your status increases, there are fewer and fewer enemies who are qualified to harm you."
"The great power of my generation belongs to myself. At my current stage, the only ones who can rival me and have the qualification to hurt me are the Imperial Court, Dragon Vein, Dao Lord, and Monster Clan."
"My whim is unwarranted. I don't know who they are, so I can just treat them all as enemies. As long as I take precautions, even if these four are all my enemies, how powerful are they still?"
"How many unknowable variables are there in this world? It's just these few."
While Pei Ziyun looked up to the sky and laughed, the statue did not move.
