(Two more ten thousand words.)
The brown-skinned old man opened his mouth wide, staring blankly at the direction where the black and white fish disappeared, and he didn't move for a long time. Judging by his appearance, he seemed to have lost his soul.
After a long time, the food in the pottery bowl with a missing mouth was already cold, and the brown-skinned old man came back to his senses. He no longer cared about eating, so he put the bowl on the rim of the vat, closed his eyes and made a gesture, He muttered a word, trying to figure out something.
"Ninth level of Qi training... My God, these two little brats have reached the ninth level of Qi training! How is this possible?"
The brown-skinned old man shuddered, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky: "This is such a horrible weather, there isn't even a star sign, how can I count?"
The brown-skinned old man was furious, pacing back and forth in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, muttering to himself: "Although the Duanzi Mountain is not well-known, it is a good place to hide wind and gather water and gather one's luck. My two swimming fish, together One black and one white, after 20 years of raising it, it is no small matter to take over the good fortune of the world and gather the spiritual energy from all directions."
"For twenty years, I have accumulated virtue and done good deeds to benefit the villagers. I have never slackened overnight. The creation of the heavens and the earth, the aura of mountains and rivers, and my popularity. The day when the two swimming fishes were raised, it was my two disciples who cultivated. Great opportunity."
"When the two of them went up the mountain in the past, I poured their energy and blood into the water tank and fused it with two swimming fishes to establish a secret connection to ensure that the swimming fishes can be used by them when they grow up. Now... ... "
The brown-skinned old man raised his head, looked at the sky speechlessly, his face was extremely sad and indignant: "But now, these two swimming fish haven't grown yet, why did they run away by themselves?!"
The brown-skinned old man lowered his head and sighed heavily: "I ran away as soon as I ran, and I'm not in a hurry. They can only go to my two disciples, but the problem is..."
Having said this, the brown-skinned old Taoist paused, and his tone became sad and angry again: "Although I have done a bad thing, I have not done a good thing, but how can I go directly from the fifth level of Qi training to Qi training?" Ninth floor? If everyone in the world does this like me, wouldn’t it be a mess?”
"It's not normal, it's not normal, I have to calculate again, and then calculate again." The brown-skinned old man calmed down, closed his eyes, and made another tactic.
After a while, his face changed, and his eyes widened: "What the hell is this, Penglai Xiandao, two dolls of the ninth level of Qi training suddenly appeared?"
"It's messed up, it's messed up, it's all messed up!" The brown-skinned old man suddenly realized something, and rushed to the outside of the Taoist temple in one step.
After rushing out of the Guanmen, he saw the Taoist Penglai dressed as Orion in the "cave" lying there vomiting blood, the brown-skinned old man heaved a sigh of relief, ran over quickly, entered the cave, and squatted down in front of him.
He rushed over suddenly with vigor, startled the Taoist Penglai, his pale face suddenly turned ashen, he laughed a few times, and said tragically: "I knew it, you won't let me go, you can do it!" ,kill me!"
"Whoever has the leisure to kill you, I have something important to ask you." The brown-skinned old man was very eager, his usually cloudy eyes were shining brightly at this moment, "Tell me, the two dolls who came out of you are clearly only twenty Next year, how did you reach the ninth level of Qi training?"
Taoist Penglai's complexion changed, his eyes flickered: "I don't know!"
"You don't know?" The brown-skinned old man asked word by word, his murderous intent fully revealed.
The Penglai Taoist stuck his neck: "That was all done by the senior brother, how would I know!"
The brown-skinned old man had a ferocious face, gnashing his teeth, full of threats: "Don't force me to use the soul search technique!"
Taoist Penglai's face was pale, and he smashed the jar: "You just do it!"
The brown-skinned old man relaxed all over, and his pretentious ferocity was instantly shattered. He sighed: "Why are you more rascal than me?"
"Who is your rascal?!" Penglai Taoist shouted immediately.
The brown-skinned old man curled his lips, too lazy to argue with him, sat down on his buttocks, and said bitterly: "To tell you the truth, my two apprentices have reached the ninth level of Qi training in an instant, I'm afraid they are possessed !"
"Possession?" Taoist Penglai became interested. He suddenly remembered something, and his complexion suddenly changed again. When it snowed heavily, the peach blossoms all over the mountain bloomed overnight, and there was a wonderful scene of snowflakes lining the peach blossoms?"
The brown-skinned old man suddenly became angry: "What is that, I don't even look at whose apprentice it is!"
After saying a word, he raised his eyebrows suddenly, stared at Taoist Penglai and said, "What do you mean?"
"In my opinion, it's not possession, but reincarnation!" Penglai Taoist's face was full of fear.
The brown-skinned old man was stunned.
"Is there any wine?" Taoist Penglai patted the ground and yelled loudly, as if he had become the old hunter who drank and bragged with the brown-skinned old man again.
The brown-skinned old man said: "No, tell me quickly!"
Taoist Penglai was very unhappy at once, but he had to bow his head under the eaves. He straightened his clothes and looked at the brown-skinned old man seriously: "When the world is in chaos, when the Taoist sect is coming out. But you know, my Penglai Xianmen , Why did you abandon the Taoism's usual principles of conduct this time, no longer support one side of the princes, but seek to control the Pinglu Jiedu envoy, and take the initiative to fight for world hegemony?"
The brown-skinned old man curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Don't you want to be a state teacher? Let me tell you, you guys are really full and full of delusions. In the past, King Wu defeated Zhou, and the Taigong didn't say that the Taoist sect would override the secular kingship. On top of that. You guys are good, but people’s hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. With this free time, why don’t you help the people more, cure diseases and save people, eliminate disasters and solve problems? There are so many Taoists in the world, if everyone is like this, the world will be peaceful. You really lost your way. Face!"
"Shut up! You are the one who disgraces the Tao! You old man, you don't understand anything, you just know nonsense! Taoists walk the world, help the people to eliminate disasters, and the world will be peaceful? It's nonsense! The people of the world are suffering. , It’s all because the emperor is stupid and incompetent, the court extorts money, the government is corrupt and perverts the law, and the powerful and the common people! Let those people rule the world, can the world not be chaotic? Only let the Taoist sect override the imperial power, let the emperor and all the officials fear us, and so on. Only my Taoist sect can benefit the common people in the world and let them live and work in peace and contentment!"
Penglai Daomen was furious immediately, his expression was agitated, and his saliva splashed.
The brown-skinned old man waved his hand: "I don't believe what you said, you should continue the previous topic."
Taoist Penglai said angrily, "It's over."
The brown-skinned old man was taken aback: "Is it finished?"
The Taoists of Penglai took it for granted: "The Taoist school believes that the secular imperial power cannot let the people suffer, so they decide to fight for hegemony and establish the rule of the Taoist school over the world! Don't even think about it. For thousands of years, dynasties have changed, rise and fall, and they are all people. Suffering, only the Taoist sect can unify the world and control the secular imperial power, can we avoid wars and displacements, avoid fighting for power and profit, and give the people of the world a peace and a safe home for the people!"
The brown-skinned old man looked confused: "What does this have to do with my two disciples, and what does it have to do with your young master?"
"You are such a piece of wood!" The Penglai Taoist looked angry and indisputable, "I ask you, why did the Grand Duke help King Wu to defeat Zhou?"
The brown-skinned old man said: "King Zhou was so cruel that the people were in dire straits, so the immortals came to the world to help King Wen and King Wu accomplish their great cause and save the people from suffering."
Taoist Penglai: "That's right, the world is about to be in chaos now, so the immortals reincarnated early, just to make the world stable! Do you think that the fairy court with insight into the three worlds will just watch the world in chaos and ignore it?"
The brown-skinned old man seemed to realize something: "So Penglai has the eldest and youngest commander."
"This is the truth!" The Penglai Taoist hit the festival hard, saying that children can be taught.
The brown skin said: "According to what you say, Penglai has the support of Xianting, so isn't it sure to rule the world?"
"Does it need to be said?" Penglai Taoist said decisively, "Ordinary people have caused chaos in the world, making people's life worse than death, and the immortals will be reincarnated to restore the order of heaven and earth, and return the people to a bright and bright world! So the world is in chaos, and the immortals are connected. Mortals make contributions and make achievements. , assist the king to set the world, and make great merits for the world, you will be able to prove the Tao and ascend to the rank of immortals, and those reincarnated immortals can also use this to return to the immortal court."
The old brown skin said: "The mortal world is in chaos, let the mortals fight it themselves, why does the fairy court care about this?"
The Penglai Taoist was furious: "What are you talking about! The immortals have the common people in their hearts, how can they just watch the people suffer?"
Speaking of this, the Taoist of Penglai softened his tone: "Look, the immortals in the fairy court are so kind. But every time the world is in chaos, the immortals have to be reincarnated, which is too troublesome. Of course, the representative of the Taoist sect must find a way to change this situation, so the Taoist sect will rule the world and override the secular imperial power. When the Taoist sect is directly ordered by the fairy court to manage the affairs of the mortal world, how can the world not be peaceful?"
The brown-skinned Taoist fell silent.
The Penglai Taoist smiled: "Do you believe it?"
The brown-skinned old man sighed, and said seriously: "I almost believed it."
Taoist Penglai was stunned: "Why is it almost there?"
The brown skin said: "You Penglai are so high above you, you act like a dog, you don't pay attention to the common people, how can you feel pity for the common people if you behave like this?"
The Taoist of Penglai stared and said: "When did Penglai stop paying attention to the people? As for our bright clothes and outstanding posture, that is also to make people fear. Don't let those powerful and unpredictable people fear our majesty, they Isn't it going to cause chaos?"
The old brown skin said: "I have a different idea."
"What do you think?" Taoist Penglai asked.
The brown-skinned old man stood up: "Every time there is chaos in the world, order is rebuilt. In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, there were a hundred schools of thought contending. Since the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has flourished. The Taoist fairy garden has experienced several crises, and now, the situation is even worse. So everyone is at risk."
"What is the foundation of the existence of the Immortal Court? It is the worship belief of mortals, the incense is endless, and the luck and luck gathered from it. Once the people in the world no longer believe in the Immortal Court, and the Taoist sect loses incense, then the people's aura and luck will be lost. Make offerings, and the Immortal Court will decline and fall, and the worst will be to cut off the Immortals."
"If this is the case, the immortal will no longer be an immortal, but a monk. At most, a monk with a stronger cultivation base will also return to the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and be a savage, and the fate of death cannot be avoided. In order to maintain itself Because of their status, they keep making immortals reincarnate, come to the human world to make contributions, and help the Taoist sect to establish its prestige in the world. This is the root cause of why in the past when the world was in chaos, the Taoist sect would come out in large numbers."
"In the final analysis, the master of heaven and earth is not the fairy court, but the common people!"
"King Wu conquered Zhou and the Taigong made gods. Why are those people ranked among the immortals? Haven't they established meritorious deeds in the mortal world and left great merits for the people? They didn't accumulate virtue and do good deeds, didn't give the people a peaceful life, and didn't get the respect of the people. Support, no matter how strong a monk is, he will be wiped out, how can he become a fairy?"
Speaking of this, the brown-skinned old man shook his sleeves.
He looked at the stunned Penglai Taoist, and continued: "When the world is falling apart, orthodoxy does not exist from time to time, luck is scattered in Kyushu, and the avenue begins in the rice paddies. The Taoism came into being. Although it has a long history, it is not yet the master of the avenue. It is the follower of the Dao. In the past Spring and Autumn and Warring States, hundreds of schools came together, why is it so? Isn’t it true that each of the hundreds of schools occupies the fortune of the world? Do the people respect and believe in it?"
"When the common people no longer support a court, the court will perish. When the common people help a prince, the prince may inherit the orthodoxy in troubled times. The road starts from the rice paddies, and exists between the minds of every common people, not Taoism. above the Immortal Court!"
"The Daoist sect can exist in the world, not because of how powerful the Daoist sect is, but because the Daoist sect has also done meritorious deeds for the common people in the world in the past!"
Taoist Penglai was pale and lost his mind.
After a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "It is an indisputable fact that Penglai has the eldest and younger commanders! Their strength is so powerful that they will surely set off a storm in the world!"
The brown-skinned old man laughed, "My two disciples were born too."
Penglai Taoist: "If your two disciples are also the reincarnation of immortals, then you have to obey the unified orders of the immortal court!"
The old brown skin said: "There are many immortals in the fairy garden, and not all of you have the same thoughts. Some people forget their origins, and some people don't!"
A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org
Taoist Penglai: "Don't forget about your roots! Even if your disciples are the reincarnation of immortals, if they don't listen to the orders of the immortal court, they will be wiped out by the immortal court!"
The brown-skinned old man laughed loudly: "The immortals are in the immortal class. Although they are canonized by the immortal court, the root is that they have performed meritorious deeds for the common people. Deeds are made, immortals live. Deeds are not destroyed, and immortals will not die."
"The Immortal Court is not someone's word, who can act recklessly? Even if the Immortal Court is angry, it can at most take away the authority of the Immortal. How can it control the death of the Immortal? How can it be obliterated? Follow the orders of the Immortal Court!"
The Penglai Taoist was furious, and his face was flushed: "It's a bunch of nonsense!"
The old brown-skinned Taoist sighed, and looked at Taoist Penglai with pity in his eyes: "If the fairy court is really as you said, with such thoughts and actions, I am afraid that the catastrophe will not only happen in the human world, but also in the fairy court. Corruption, catastrophe is coming. If that time really comes, it will be the wrath of Dao, when the merits and virtues will be offset by crimes, the immortals will also fall, and the fairy court... "
Speaking of this, the brown-skinned old man shook his head and left the cave without further words.
Taoist Penglai roared behind him: "Nonsense! Turn around now, you still have a chance to survive! If you don't follow the will of the fairy court, once the fairy court is furious and sends down divine punishment, you will die an ugly death!"
The brown-skinned old man had already returned to the Taoist temple, and he didn't intend to answer.
Returning to the Taoist temple, he picked up the bowl on the rim of the vat. The brown-skinned old man looked as usual. The food in the bowl was already cold, but he didn't care. He ate the food bit by bit, and there was not a single grain of rice left , not a single vegetable leaf wasted.
An apprentice's hard work can be damaged due to unintentional mistakes, but intentional waste is never allowed.
The brown-skinned old man suddenly smiled.
God's punishment
die
What fear of death.
Die to the Tao, even though you die, you still live.
...
Zhang Yunhe stared at Da Si Ming motionless, and said a few words through his teeth: "Then Da Si Ming, who are you?!"
Da Si Ming's expression returned to calm: "Who am I? I am now the Da Si Ming of Penglai Xianmen. As for the others, is it important?"
Zhang Yunhe was startled, turned around, and fell silent.
The reason why Zhang Yunhe is so interested in who the chief commander is is simply because he feels that the other party is probably not a mortal. This was something Zhang Yunhe had never thought of before, and such a thing was too terrifying, almost beyond his usual cognition.
But if you think about it carefully, reincarnation is not so unacceptable. Since mortals can become immortals, why can't immortals be reincarnated
It's just that no one in the world has become a fairy for a long time. Although Zhang Yunhe has a high cultivation base, he almost forgot about it. Everyone is used to it. The monks practice only to become stronger. As for the illusory immortality , It is too far away, untouchable. If it weren't for Zhang Yunhe's extraordinary talent and rapid progress in cultivation, he wouldn't think about things so far away, let alone doubt Da Si Ming right now.
At this time, after listening to Da Si Ming's words, Zhang Yunhe can at least be sure of a large part that Da Si Ming is the reincarnated person. This made him feel sour. After all, it meant that monks could indeed become immortals. For ordinary monks, this may not be very tempting, and it will not cause much inner turmoil, but Zhang Yunhe is different, he has such a possibility.
Zhang Yunhe took a deep breath and suppressed these messy thoughts. After calming down, Zhang Yunhe found that the situation in Pinglu suddenly became very interesting. In this land of five states, four reincarnated people unexpectedly appeared.
Zhang Yunhe said: "On the opposite side, a Taiyin star king and a giant spirit god are not good enemies... No, they are all extremely powerful! Since you are also a reincarnated person, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with one, but I How can you compete against the opponent?"
When the other party said, "Since you are also a reincarnated person", Da Si Ming's expression changed slightly, which seemed to be a little mocking, but she didn't say much.
After Zhang Yunhe finished speaking, she said calmly: "Even if an immortal is reincarnated, it is only at the ninth level of Qi training. You are a mortal body, why aren't they? After all, what you are facing now is not an immortal, but a mortal monk .”
Speaking of this, Da Si Ming showed a strange and seductive smile: "Zhang Yunhe, do you want to taste the taste of killing immortals? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don't miss it."
Zhang Yunhe raised the flying crane sword flatly, and laughed disapprovingly: "It doesn't matter if you are an immortal or not, and it doesn't matter what it feels like to kill an immortal, since you are matched, let's fight first!"
When his voice fell, Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang broke away from the state of waking up from the big dream, their eyes became clear again, and they cast sharp gazes on him and Da Siming.
Probably hearing Zhang Yunhe's words, the corners of Su Emei's gentle mouth twitched, seeming to outline a smile, with an inexplicable meaning and an indescribable beauty.
Wisps of clear yellow light rose from her sword-holding hand, filling the sword inch by inch, and flower-like petals emerged from the sword body. When the last flower-like petals took shape, Su Emei truly revealed a Smile, and slash Zhang Yunhe with a sword!
