Gray clouds floated lightly across the starry sky. Lu Liangsheng turned his head to look in the direction of Karabosa and threw away the broken branch in his hand. The desert was quiet at night, with occasional sounds of four scholars cooking over a fire and throwing sand at each other.
"That man is dead?"
The voice of Toad Taoist sounded beside Lu Liangsheng. With his flippers clasped behind his back, he looked at the dense starry sky with an indifferent expression and nodded with satisfaction.
"The moon in this foreign land is quite round, but it's a pity that it is not as warm as the one in my hometown. The same goes for people. Just kill them. Think about how powerful your teacher was in the past. There is no need to look so sad."
Lu Liangsheng lowered his head, looked to the side and laughed.
"It's not what Master thought. I just wanted to go to Constantine to have a look. If I could meet their emperor, I could talk about some matters concerning state governance. If there is anything useful, I could convey it to His Majesty. It would be beneficial to the country and the people, and it would be worth the trip here."
He looked at the moonlight, took a breath, and said, "It seems that we can't go now. The governor is probably not much different from the governor of the Central Plains. If a frontier official dies in an untimely manner, the other party will definitely not let it go. At that time, Constantine should just leave and continue to go east."
The scholar looked at the moonlight and talked for a while. No words came from the side beside him for a long time. The Toad Taoist stood there, swaying with his webbed feet hanging by his side, his head drooping on his chest and pecking at it.
"Master?"
Lu Liangsheng called out softly, and the toad's half-open eyes suddenly opened. It put its webbed feet behind its back again, raised its chin and looked at the night sky. Its eyes became stern and majestic.
"Your Majesty?" Seeing this, how could Lu Liangsheng not know that it was a new soul. The toad standing still over there closed his eyes, and took a deep breath of satisfaction at the sound of "Your Majesty".
"It's me."
The First Emperor nodded and walked slowly along the edge of the huge stone steps. "Every time I hear the title of Imperial Master, I feel that I am getting closer to ruling the world."
As he spoke, he stood still and turned his face slightly to the toad: "By the way, I can feel that the Kongtong Seal is in your hand. Can you take it out and let me take a look? When I went out to sea that year, I got nothing and almost died in the belly of a fish. Taking a look at it will be considered to fulfill my wish back then."
Looking at the silhouette standing under the moon with expectant eyes, Lu Liangsheng nodded, stretched out his hand from his sleeve pocket, took out the square seal, and spread it in the palm of his hand. The fairy air lingered and burst into colorful light. The First Emperor turned around abruptly and pounced on him. However, before he could touch him, there was a "snap" and his round body flew backwards as if he had been electrocuted. He fell on the huge rock bricks, bounced a few times, made a "cooing" sound, and stopped after a while, lying on the ground.
"I forgot to tell you, Your Majesty, that you are now in the body of my master, and no gods, demons or monsters can get close to you."
After saying that, Lu Liangsheng put the Kongtong Seal back into his sleeve. The First Emperor propped himself up and sat up. He stared at the seal until it disappeared before he was willing to look away. He got up from the ground, brushed off the dust on his body, put on his flippers, walked back and forth, his eyes rolling around in his sockets, and then he laughed.
"I was just excited for a moment and forgot this. Sigh... Time flies. In a blink of an eye, the world has changed. Even if I get it, what can I do? Am I going to wear the crown and dragon robe and sit on the dragon throne like this? I am just trying to make people laugh."
Seeing that Lu Liangsheng was about to speak, he quickly raised his flippers and shook them to interrupt him, and continued:
"Master Lu, since the Kongtong Seal is in your hands, I might as well tell you its function."
Lu Liangsheng looked at his sleeves, nodded, and held out his hand: "Your Majesty, please speak."
"I read ancient books and searched for Taoist practitioners all over the world to use for my own purposes. It took the efforts of everyone to get a glimpse of it. Those Taoist practitioners tried every means to achieve longevity, but few people know that this seal has an immortality barrier that can protect the face of the person holding the seal from aging. It is also blessed by the magical powers of the Five Heavenly Emperors, Taihao, Huangdi, Yandi, Shaohao, and Zhuanxu. If you are regarded as the emperor of mankind, you can control all matters in the world...
You must not underestimate the big and small things in this world. You can deify the gods or deprive them of their power. All gods who have been deified by imperial decree can be stripped of their positions and pulled down from the altar. You can also let the spirits of heroes with great achievements stand in the sky, or hide in the netherworld to achieve an official position, from the small land god to the big immortal. If I had found this artifact back then, I am afraid that there would be no later dynasties, and I would not allow them to slander my reputation after my death. "
Lu Liangsheng listened quietly for a while, stroking his sleeve pocket, thinking of the voice whispering in his ear after he took the seal in Guixu that day, and he pursed his lips and suddenly smiled.
"Your Majesty only knows one or two things, but not the other. The Kongtong Seal is not that easy to obtain. If Your Majesty had found this item, I'm afraid it would not have been able to protect the Qin Dynasty forever."
The First Emperor turned his head and asked: "Why?"
Lu Liangsheng, who was sitting over there, shook his head and didn't continue to say the rest of the words. He just smiled at him and said, "Your Majesty will know in the future that the Five Heavenly Emperors are not just blessing the magic power, they may also be suppressing it."
"Since you don't want to talk, I won't force you. Let me take a look at the seal when I have time. Okay, I won't stand on this grave anymore."
"A pile of graves?" Lu Liangsheng looked down at the ground. Shouldn't it be a spectacular building
"What kind of graves have I not seen? There is one in Lishan that is placed upside down. Let's go!"
The last word of the First Emperor's words fell into the toad's mouth, and the short figure suddenly remained motionless. The night wind in the desert was cold, and when it blew on his face, the Toad Taoist woke up with a start, his eyes widened, he rubbed his whole body, and looked up at his disciple who was as big as a mountain.
"Liangsheng, the emperor is out again?"
Seeing the scholar nod, Toad sat down on the ground angrily: "I knew it would be like this. You slipped out when I wasn't paying attention. By the way, where were you talking about just now? It's been a long time since we, master and disciple, have a small talk like this."
"Master Lu, Immortal Chan, are you ready to eat?!"
At this time, the four scholars shouted from below the pyramid. The Toad Taoist just sat down and stood up again, "Forget it, eating is more important. Liangsheng, follow me down!"
"Master, please go down first." Lu Liangsheng shook his head and continued to sit there without moving. He had things to think about before returning to Central Plains.
The Toad Taoist nodded, "It's up to you."
After saying this, he turned around and walked around Fang Yan to the other side, looking at the darkness below where there was only a little light of fire. His flippers paused for a moment, remembering the scene on the roof of Zhou Mansion and the most recent time. He squinted his eyes, tensed his two short legs, and his body was filled with demonic power. He quickly calculated how to get down and the distance. After a moment, he made up his mind, and rushed forward with his slightly bent body. He pushed over the edge with his flippers and landed steadily and swiftly on the next step.
"It seems that I am still lucky..."
The next second, he stepped on a gravel with his flippers, kicked his eyes, and swallowed the words he hadn't finished, turning them into: "I knew it would be like this..."
The body tilted and fell directly down. The round body bounced like a ball and rolled down step by step. Only the sound of bangs echoed in the night.
The top of the obelisk.
Lu Liangsheng fell into silence, looking at the seal he had taken out again in his hand, thinking about what happened that day when the four generals of the Mo family were deprived of their divine positions.
'The gods are not stupid. The four generals should have told the other gods in heaven about this news. No wonder they never came back after coming here... But we can't just give up like this. We should look for other countermeasures. Jiuzhou is protected by the Ten Thousand Spirits Formation. They can't come down in real body... Only. '
Thinking of a possibility, Lu Liangsheng suddenly stood up, facing the cold wind, his hair flying gently on the side of his head.
'The only way is to incarnate into the world... and use human body to fight against Kongtong Seal.'
Thinking of this possibility, Lu Liangsheng felt a little relieved. If these gods came to the world and still possessed divine powers, then he could just go and find some help - to become a god again.
With a plan to deal with the situation, Lu Liangsheng's mood improved. He flicked his sleeves and turned back, only to see that the Toad Taoist had already arrived below with a smile on his face.
The master walked quite quickly and went downstairs.
