Hearing shouts outside the temple, Nanfeng was overjoyed, "Let go quickly, my friend is here."
Zhu Lao Er and Lao Huai heard this and quickly let go of his arms, but still felt uneasy and followed Nan Feng out of the Earth Temple.
The fat man was originally looking in from outside the temple. After Zhu Lao Er and Lao Huai came out, he vaguely felt a strange aura around him, so he withdrew his gaze and looked around.
Due to the many sacred appearances in the past, the earth temple was at its peak at this time. Although it was still early, the small temple was already crowded with pilgrims, and Nanfeng's appearance did not attract anyone's attention.
"You are really here." The fat man was so happy.
"There are many people here, come with me." Nanfeng pulled the fat man eastward.
"It's such a cold day, where are you taking me?" the fat man asked.
"There is no place to talk in the small temple, and you can't go to the place where I live." Nanfeng exuded spiritual energy as he walked, and raised a barrier around the two of them, "Did Changle find you?"
"Nonsense, otherwise how would I know you were here." The fat man said.
"Where is he now?" Nanfeng asked.
"While you are still in Fengming Mountain, something big seems to have happened in the Liang Kingdom. My eldest brother is rushing back to the army. Now Changle is guarding you in Fengming Mountain. By the way, there are also several old Taoist priests from the Taiqing Sect. After looking for it, you did not help them in vain. When they heard that you became an Earth Immortal, they were happy and guilty, and they all said that they had harmed you." The fat man said.
Nanfeng was greatly relieved when he heard this, "Hou Jing trapped the inconspicuous emperor in the palace. Brother and the others must have gone to rescue him. How is the eighth master doing now?"
"What else can I do? I'm very frustrated, but I still listen to your words and follow Mo Li." Fatty said.
Nanfeng sighed, "How's the business going?"
"A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" the fat man said.
"Okay." Nanfeng said.
The fat man put the hammer under his arm and blew his nose with his hands, "As soon as you die, we will go to Fengming Mountain. You haven't left the corpse yet when we get there, so you are lucky. Uncle Wang happens to have a preserved corpse." The beads are also a water spirit coffin, which was originally left to me by Uncle Wang, but this old boy is really interesting. He knew we wanted to use it and let it go without saying a word."
"What's the bad news?" Nanfeng asked.
"The bad news is that he is not sure that he can repair your body." The fat man also knew that what he said was unclear, so he explained, "You have taken Huanyang Pill before, and your Qi, blood and meridians are double Taixuan. It is difficult to It’s changed back to its original state.”
"As expected." Nanfeng nodded slowly.
The fat man looked around and saw no one following him, so he lowered his voice and said, "There are two ways at the moment. I say, listen, see which way works. The first one is to find a way to go to the underworld to give you your life." Changed. Second, Uncle Wang will treat you and find a way to restore your body to its original state. I think the first way is the best, but it is too difficult. We can go to the underworld wherever we want. Second This method is simpler, but the problem is that it takes too long, it takes many years, and Uncle Wang is not 100% sure yet."
After listening to the fat man's words, Nanfeng frowned slightly, and after thinking about it, he said, "The first road doesn't work. I have been promoted to an earthly immortal. Although my status is humble, I am still in the immortal class. My life span is no longer determined by the underworld." It’s a decision that no one can change.”
"Where's the second way?" The fat man was tired, so he walked to a big tree, put down his hammers, and squatted down with his hands folded.
Nanfeng squatted next to him, "I have no choice but to take the second path."
The fat man shook his head worriedly, "Even if Uncle Wang can cure you, you will still be dead if your lifespan is not changed."
Nanfeng waved his hand, "That's not how it was calculated. I ascended at Chen hour that day, but in fact I could survive until noon at the latest. According to the state of borrowing the universe, I still have two hours of life left. If Uncle Wang can heal me With your physical body, these two hours can be converted into two years of Yangshou."
"Well, what are you doing in two years?" The fat man sighed.
"That's enough." Nanfeng said sternly, "I don't have a physical body right now, so I can't practice Qi, but it doesn't affect my study of the Heavenly Book. When I succeed in studying the Heavenly Book, I can gather spiritual energy immediately as long as I return to my physical body, and I don't need two people. Year, I'm afraid if you only give me the right time, no one will be able to stop me."
After saying that, without waiting for the fat man to answer, he raised his head slightly and said, "Even they can't subjugate me."
Hearing Nanfeng's words, the fat man was surprised, "So powerful?"
Nanfeng nodded slowly, "It's a pity that the Book of Heaven is incomplete. One volume is missing. If I could get them all..."
Even if Nanfeng didn't finish his words, Fatty knew what he wanted to say. If he got the complete heavenly book, even the Three Pure Ones might not be able to stop him.
"Did Uncle Wang say the specific time?" Nanfeng asked.
"Don't be specific, not even a general idea," the fat man curled his lips and shook his head, "I asked him how long it would take, and the old boy said, "In his lifetime, damn, who knows how long he can live."
Nan Feng waved his hand, "Don't force him. He has placed a heavy burden on me and will definitely do his best."
"Sure, I'll be relieved then," the fat man stood up, "It's too cold in the north, let's find a place to drink."
"No, Li Chaozong is now the City God of Chang'an. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. You must leave as soon as possible." Nanfeng said.
The fat man was stunned, "Li Chaozong became the city god? Didn't you kill him?"
"He has the support of gods behind him, and he is a god after his death," Nanfeng lowered his voice, "They always covet the Heavenly Book. If I can't get it from here, they will force you. Don't come to Chang'an again in the future, otherwise he will definitely not let him go. you."
"What's the point of forcing me? I don't know the Book of Heaven." The fat man looked up at the sky, "I'm afraid it's going to snow."
"Listen carefully, I will finish my words as soon as possible, and you leave as soon as possible," Nanfeng said. At this time, he used spiritual energy to set up a barrier to isolate his ears and eyes. It would not be a big deal if he was alive, but at this time, the spiritual energy can go out or in. , so I don’t want to waste it.
"One, you all should not come to Chang'an again in the future to avoid being plotted against. In addition, you are not safe even if you are elsewhere. They are likely to attack you. You must be alert and be on guard at all times."
"Oh." Fatty responded.
"Two, if you are caught by them, don't hold on. If necessary, you can hand over the Heavenly Book to survive. You are more important to me than the Heavenly Book. It doesn't matter if you lose your cultivation. It doesn't matter if you lose your legs and feet. As long as you can Just hold on until I return to my physical body, and we can make a complete comeback."
"Is it so serious? When did you start to emulate other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige?" The fat man curled his lips.
"Yes," Nanfeng nodded sternly, "Remember, you must not be brave and fight harshly, and do everything you can to save your life."
"Okay, go ahead and talk." Fatty agreed.
"Third, the fact that I left my physical body will be leaked sooner or later, and they will probably guess what I want to do. You go back to Uncle Wang and ask him to leave Fengming Mountain as soon as possible, find a place that only you and him know, and concentrate on repairing me. His body, don’t tell anyone his whereabouts, remember, it’s anyone.”
"Don't worry, I know the seriousness. I won't even talk about this matter to my eldest brother. What I'm worried about now is whether Uncle Wang will listen to us?" The fat man was worried.
"Uncle Wang is a smart man and likes to gamble. Tell him that if this happens, I will allow him to live forever." Nanfeng said, no one really cares about gains and losses. Such a huge sacrifice cannot be compared with If the reward is big enough, no one will do it.
"You're so awesome. You're already dead, and you're still allowing others to live." The fat man is not Hou Shulin's second son, and he doesn't care whether Nan Feng is willing to listen to what he says.
"I'm not dead." Nanfeng glared.
"You're dead." The fat man laughed.
"I don't have time to joke with you. Fourth, I secretly protect Zhuge Chanjuan. Her Suzaku soul has never died, and she may be able to find it back one day." Nanfeng said again.
"Even if you get it back, Zhuge has turned into a little kid. Do you still want the old cow to eat tender grass?" The fat man laughed again.
"If it's still the same grass, I'll really eat it." Nanfeng also laughed. No matter what he does, there must be a reason and motivation. Saving Zhuge Chanjuan is one of his two main motivations for returning to the sun.
After the fat man laughed, Nanfeng said again, "Well, if you have the ability, if you are not busy..."
The reason why Nanfeng hesitated to speak was because he knew that Fatty and Yuan Anning did not have a very good relationship. Fatty had always been in love with Zhuge and entrusted him to take care of Yuan Anning, and Fatty would definitely criticize him.
The two grew up naked and had a tacit understanding for a long time. When he saw Nanfeng hesitating, the fat man guessed what he was thinking, "Do you have a damn conscience? I've risked my life for you. You're still thinking about that hemp pole."
The fat man's calling Yuan Anning Ma Gan'er was undoubtedly influenced by Zhuge Chanjuan. Hearing the fat man's words, Nanfeng sighed helplessly, "I didn't even say goodbye to her. She came to Chang'an to look for me the day before yesterday, and I didn't show up to see her."
"Who do you like?" The fat man looked at him.
"Didn't I tell you, I like both of them. If Yuan Anning were Zhuge Chanjuan, she would sacrifice her life to save me," Nanfeng said.
"What's wrong with you? You're eating from the bowl and watching..." The fat man was halfway talking. When he remembered that he had no face to criticize Nan Feng, he hurriedly changed the subject, "Okay, okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you, too. Don’t do anything else, just looking after your two wives is enough for me. By the way, what if she gets married?"
Nan Feng didn't answer, and he didn't even say goodbye to Yuan An Ning before leaving. This move would make Yuan An Ning very chilled. Even if Yuan An Ning moved on to someone else, he couldn't blame her.
"When you come back, I'm afraid that the old man will be old and yellow, so you are just gnawing on the young grass." The fat man was tired from running for a long time, "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Nanfeng thought for a while and said, "Five, if they can't get the Book of Heaven from me, they won't allow me to stay in Chang'an. I estimate that it won't be long before I will be transferred elsewhere. Don't look for me either. If the king Uncle has restored my physical body, so you can burn incense and worship me in the middle of the night. If you continue for three days, I will know that you are ready, and then I will try to return to my physical body."
"Can you possess me directly? Don't you need to go to the underworld and be reincarnated?" the fat man asked.
"It's not clear yet, let me think about it slowly." Nanfeng said.
"Is there any more six?" The fat man curled his lips.
Nanfeng shook his head, "I only think of these at the moment. I am counting them one by one because I am afraid that you will forget something."
"Don't worry, think about it slowly," the fat man said.
Nan Feng thought for a moment and then said, "After you finish the work, stop running around and spend time with your family. By the way, is the second child a boy or a girl?"
"I'm a boy this time," the fat man said casually, "I won't have much time to do at this moment. I have to go to the East China Sea. Do you think it's possible to send Uncle Wang to the East China Sea? I'm familiar with that part of the world."
"You decide for yourself," Nanfeng said, "Okay, I used my spiritual energy to set up a barrier before I dared to talk to you like this. The barrier will greatly damage the spiritual energy, so I immediately closed the barrier and sent you out."
After hearing this, the fat man stood up with a hammer and called Lao Bai out. Nanfeng escorted him all the way eastward until he was sent out of Chang'an.
"Okay, you can go back." The fat man turned around.
"We say goodbye today. I don't know when we will see each other again." Nanfeng said sadly.
The fat man frowned when he heard this, "My teeth are so sore that I'm going to leave. Please take care of yourself, but don't let us work in vain."
Nan Feng nodded.
The fat man didn't hesitate, he rode Lao Bai and flew into the sky...
