The drizzle fell, like powder and mist, and gradually wet his cheeks and collar.
The weeds and old leaves that were thrown to the ridges were covered with dew, and they looked beautiful.
As the sky gradually shifted, he finished his work in the medicine field, and the little Taoist appeared again, beckoning him to follow him.
There are several green hills at the end of the endless medicine field, along the mountain road, there is hot fog in front, and there are several hot springs between the pines and cypresses.
Thinking about soaking in the hot spring, Chen Changsheng was looking forward to it, and was about to take off his coat when he saw the figure in the fog.
In the hot and humid fog, the pines and cypresses still maintain their spirits, but the best spirits are those strange mosses growing in the hot spring rocks.
The color of that kind of moss is a little yellowish, more precisely golden, it is the very rare money skin according to the pharmacopoeia.
The figure in the fog was collecting money skins, very cautious and focused.
A mountain wind came from nowhere, and the hot mist among the pines and cypresses was blown away a little, revealing the scene between the cliffs and rocks.
The man was bent over, giving the impression that he was still tall and straight, his hair was already grey, but it was still neatly combed, just like before.
Chen Changsheng saluted, then stood aside.
As time went by, the sky gradually brightened, the mist cleared, and the money skins converged on their own, becoming indistinguishable from ordinary moss.
Shang Xingzhou handed the medicine bag to the accompanying Taoist priest, took a sip of water from the little Taoist priest, walked along the mountain path to the pavilion and sat down.
Chen Changsheng walked outside the pavilion.
Shang Xingzhou didn't even look at him, nor did he let him sit down, and asked directly: "What does Bai Xingye want to do?"
…
…
The battle in Baidi City ten years ago was the only cooperation between their master and apprentice.
Chen Changsheng didn't know about it beforehand, and Xu Yourong played the role of a bridge, but the final result was very good.
The two of them, the master and the apprentice, appeared one after another, and drove a peerless powerhouse like Baidi to nowhere to retreat. Finally, according to their ideas, they met all sentient beings, and jointly killed the two angels of holy light. After seeing Mrs. Mu, no one knows whether Baidi shed tears on the sea of clouds in the end.
It seemed that Chen Changsheng was right. Since Shang Xingzhou cared most about the Northern Expedition, he must be very concerned about the alliance between the human race and the monster race.
Chen Changsheng said: "Bai Di still doesn't want to put in too much effort, or... he doesn't have the sincerity to cooperate at all. I'm more worried about the future."
Negotiations and specific affairs between the two parties were handled by court officials and the Bishop of Li Palace.
But from some details, it can be seen that Baidi really didn't have much interest in this war, or he could use the word "sick".
Coupled with Luoluo's relationship, he has more information.
The current Yaozu is a bit weak. If Baidi hadn't taken advantage of the situation and wiped out the Xiangzu, it might have been better.
Including Xiaode, the powerhouses of the Mesozoic generation of the monster race have not seen signs of breaking through. Compared with the human race, this point is far behind.
For at least three years, the Yaozu will still only have Baidi, a strong man in the sanctuary.
His safety is too important to the Yaozu, so he will never leave Baidi City, nor will he stay away from the protection of the Red River Formation.
And the Yaozu helped the human race defeat the demons, what good is it for them
The problem is that the human race is so powerful, and the monster race has no way to refuse the alliance's request to send troops.
If Chen Changsheng were Baidi, he wouldn't know how to deal with the current situation.
In fact, there has always been a very simple solution to this matter.
Over the past ten years, this statement has spread more and more widely, and has received more and more support from people.
"Eight hundred miles of the Red River, thirty thousand miles of rivers and mountains, the people of the Yaozu are waiting for you to marry their princess, and the government and the public support you. What are you hesitating about?"
Shang Xingzhou asked.
Chen Changsheng hesitated to speak.
Shang Xingzhou said: "Ping wife is not without precedent."
Chen Changsheng shook his head.
Shang Xingzhou was not surprised by his answer and the speed at which he gave it.
"Yes, there's no need to, and it's not as important as people think."
Hearing these words, Chen Changsheng was a little puzzled, thinking that alliance with the monster clan is not the most important thing
"Back then, Emperor Taizong used the weak to make the enemy strong, so it was necessary to unite all the forces that could be united, but it is not necessary now. The north-south confluence is a must, because they are compatriots, and the Yaozu is willing to serve or not, it is just a side issue , After all, we still have to rely on ourselves to do things, we are strong enough, why should we care about the rest?"
Shang Xingzhou said these words for Chen Changsheng, and also for everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The Changchun temple has always maintained contact with the imperial palace, and His Majesty often comes to Luoyang to celebrate the New Year, but it is said that Shang Xingzhou has never said a word to the government.
In other words, this was the first time in ten years that Shang Xingzhou spoke out about world affairs.
His meaning is very clear, that is, the attitude towards Yaozu must be tough.
Even if Baidi City refuses to send troops, the war will never stop.
Chen Changsheng raised the most important question.
"Why did you write to Wang Po, asking him to pick us up? How did you know that it was a conspiracy jointly arranged by Heipao and Bada Shanren?"
Shang Xingzhou said: "The black robe let me know on purpose."
Chen Changsheng was so surprised that he couldn't speak, he thought to himself what was going on? Could it be another infighting among the demons? The black robe and the magic commander want to completely eliminate traces of the lineage of the great scholars through the hands of the strong human race? But after thinking about it, the demons have reached such a dangerous moment, how could the black robe be so unwise
Even Shang Xingzhou couldn't figure out what the real answer was, because she was human after all? Or did Wang Zhice go to Snow Old City
Chen Changsheng woke up from the shock and asked, "Who is the black robe?"
Shang Xingzhou did not answer this question in the end.
Chen Changsheng was taken away by the little Taoist priest and lived in a small courtyard on the side. After a simple meal, he received a box.
"Is this what the ancestor asked you to give me?"
He looked at the little Taoist and asked in surprise.
The little Taoist nodded vigorously, and then ran out of the small courtyard, with his little arms swaying, looking very cute.
Chen Changsheng was really surprised.
In his memory, it seems that he has never received anything from his master.
The rare two things, after many years, proved to be nothing but sad foreshadowing.
He opened the box a little nervously, and found that there were two very delicate magic instruments inside, and the material should be mainly bronze. After studying for a long time, I realized that these are two sound-communicating instruments made of fragments of the Haotian mirror. Using the innate magical power of the Haotian mirror, two parties far apart can communicate in real time.
This is really a remarkable thing, and it can be included in the new list of hundred tools. It must have been refined by Shang Xingzhou himself, and it took a lot of effort.
Such a precious magic weapon should be used on the battlefield, what did the master give it to me
His consciousness landed on the stone bead on his wrist, and a gray stone bead turned bright.
Xu Yourong's voice suddenly came from that stone bead.
"Say, I'm busy."
Chen Changsheng recounted what happened.
Xu Yourong's voice disappeared for a while, then rang again.
"Or... this is for us."
