Zhang Tianshi is a direct descendant of the Zhengyi lineage. He has a wide range of divine connections in heaven, and his responsibility in the human world is to do miscellaneous things for him.
Not to mention anything else, just talking about suppressing the 108 demon stars under Longhu Mountain, and borrowing the hands of Lieutenant Hong to release the demon stars to deal with the disaster, they were all doing things for heaven.
These things themselves will achieve Taoism, and the amount is not low.
Therefore, Zhang Tianshi does not need to run around doing good deeds like ordinary Taoist priests. As long as he completes the tasks assigned above, he will naturally obtain the corresponding Taoist position.
Zhang Tianshi does not need to intervene to promote the demon star's calamity, but he must ensure that the demon star's calamity is completed smoothly, and outsiders cannot be allowed to interfere randomly and destroy this process.
At that moment, Zhang Tianshi frowned and said coldly:
"Fellow Taoists, you take it for granted. If it is so easy to complete the tribulation, there are more than a thousand ordinary Taoist priests up and down the Longhu Mountain. Don't we covet this Taoist practice?"
"Have you ever seen anyone coming down the mountain to interfere in this matter?"
"I really don't dare to interfere randomly!"
"These calamity-ridden stars all carry calamity aura on their bodies. It's okay to meet and push the boat with the current occasionally, but if you dare to go deep into it, you will be invaded by the calamity aura."
"If you are haunted by calamity energy, once you die, even if you have a Taoist position, it will be useless. You will inevitably have to go to the underworld."
When everyone heard this, it was like cold water poured over their heads, and the flames in their hearts extinguished instantly.
They keep shouting about "you can die if you hear the Tao in the morning and die in the evening", but what they rely on is that even after death, they can go to heaven and become a Taoist boy. If they are lucky enough to accumulate enough Taoism, they can directly gain all the merits and become immortals. Class, wouldn’t that be developed?
But if this escape route is cut off, then death will really be death.
After entering reincarnation, even if the true spirit is still there, it is hard to say whether they can be reincarnated as a human in the next life, especially since they know their own affairs and have no confidence in whether they can withstand the judge's trial.
Even if you are lucky enough to become a human again, but lose your memory, you may not be able to re-enter the road in the next life. You will most likely be wallowing in the world of mortals, never being able to escape.
Seeing the immortal fate in sight but unable to reach out, everyone felt even more unwilling. After a moment of silence, Qing Huanzi suddenly saluted and asked:
"I dare to ask the Heavenly Master, if you stay away from the calamity-ridden heavenly star and just secretly add fuel to the flames, will you be affected by the calamity aura?"
Zhang Tianshi looked at him deeply, nodded slightly and said:
"If any noble person is isolated from it, he will be fine."
Everyone suddenly understood why so many well-known Taoist priests in history always jumped to the emperor's side to do something from time to time, and then left at critical moments.
Zhang Tianshi reminded again:
"It's just that as a result, the Taoism gained will be much less. If everyone shares the benefits, it may not be enough to become an immortal."
The Taoist priests looked at each other and made a decision in their hearts. They all bowed and thanked:
"If I want to seek immortality, I will ask the Heavenly Master to teach me!"
Zhang Tianshi sighed and said helplessly:
"That's it!"
"After all, we are all on the same page, and it is hard for an old Taoist to just sit back and watch you go astray."
"In that case, I'll just wait and see."
"Do you know where the Killing Star came from, and how can we complete the catastrophe?"
Everyone shook their heads and begged the Heavenly Master to tell him.
Zhang Tianshi then roughly told the story of these one hundred and eight constellations, and finally said:
"These one hundred and eight demonic stars must be gathered together first, and then either the merits will be perfected or the body will die, and the calamity will be completed."
"In other words, the key to promoting the calamity is not the outcome of these people's final calamity, but the convergence of the stars."
"You can search for the unassembled demon stars on your own, and use various methods to gather them under the command of Tian Kuixing. As long as you do this, you will be regarded as obeying the fate of heaven, and your proper conduct will naturally be yours. .”
"The old Taoist only knows that the leading star that day was Song Jiang and Song Gongming. But who are these 108 people? The old Taoist has never calculated in the past. Now that the situation is in chaos, it is impossible to calculate. You need to explore on your own."
"If you get lucky, that's your chance."
"If you choose the wrong person, it will be due to your own bad luck. You cannot blame the old man."
Everyone was overjoyed and bowed to express their thanks.
"It is already a great favor that the Heavenly Master is willing to give you guidance. How can I ask for more?"
At that moment, everyone thanked Master Zhang and said goodbye and went down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, after everyone discussed it, they felt that since the leader that day was Song Jiang, no matter how rampant Li Gui was now, he would eventually be defeated by Song Jiang, and they felt naturally happy.
There are probably many demon stars around Song Jiang, and there are probably many demon stars around Li Gui.
Moreover, Wang Qing, Tian Hu and Li Gui are all one of the big bandits, and they probably also have the identity of a demon star. They might as well make some roundabout contacts first and help them out.
In the future, pushing them to recruit people or selling them to Song Jiang are good ways to gather the magic stars.
It's a pity that the Liangshan side now rejects Taoist priests and cannot be friends, so it is difficult to start from here.
However, these magic stars cannot be directly contacted, and they need to be transferred through a "noble person", which is more troublesome.
Song Jiang's side is the best to "contact".
In the Song Dynasty, the emperor was a fool and still believed in Taoism, so maybe they could take advantage of it.
Whether it is Liang Zhongshu of Daming Palace or Zhong Shidao of the Western Army, they can also take a roundabout way to "contact" Song Jiang.
Li Gui and the other three big bandits are the trouble. I don't know who to find noble people to take a detour.
After the discussion was completed, everyone rushed to all directions to find suitable "noble people" to control them in order to achieve their own goals.
Qing Huanzi, as the leader of the group, was the most famous, so he naturally chose the Zhao Guan family. After leaving Longhu Mountain, he urged Taoist priests to rush all the way to Bianliang City in Tokyo and asked for an audience in front of the palace.
But in the city of Tokyo, the imperial court's wishful thinking completely failed.
The three recruitment edicts sent out were all rejected.
Whether it was Lin Chong, Wang Qing, or Tian Hu, they all saw through the weak nature of the Song Dynasty and simply refused to accept this trick again.
At this time, Song Huizong suddenly remembered that the immortal master Lin Lingsu had written to Shu before he left, saying that the national crisis was approaching, and he asked him to move the capital to avoid it.
At that time, he was angry at Lin Lingsu for not being able to save his Xiao Zhao, so how could he listen to such offensive words, but now it seems that it was clearly the immortal master who had deduced that there was a disaster in the capital, so he petitioned to move the capital.
Zhao Ji was as timid as a mouse, and he always insisted that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. Seeing that Bianliang was no longer stable, he came up with the idea of moving the capital.
After careful consideration, he proposed the idea at the court meeting.
Of course Cai Jing and others supported it, but Li Gang and others fully opposed it.
"Your Majesty, the troops of King Qin from all over the country are now heading towards Tokyo."
"Your Majesty is moving the capital at this time. Doesn't it mean that he has abandoned this place? How should those Qin Wang troops behave?"
"If His Majesty wants to leave, that's fine. Please pass on the throne first and let the new monarch stay in Bianliang."
Zhao Ji is not a fool, so how can he agree to this kind of thing?
Li Gang said, "I'm not trying to scare you. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty didn't pass the throne to the prince, but the prince became the emperor."
On the one hand, Song Huizong did not want to lose power, but on the other hand, he was afraid of becoming a subjugated king. While he was hesitating, he suddenly heard from his chamberlain that the Immortal Qinghuanzi, the superintendent of Taishan Dai Temple, asked to see him.
Zhao Ji was overjoyed and hurriedly announced the immortal's entry.
As soon as Qing Huanzi came in, before he could express his intention, he heard the Zhao Guan family urgently pleading:
"Chief Immortal, now that the bandit is approaching the city, I would like to ask the Immortal to cast a spell quickly to drive the bandit away!"
"As long as the Immortal is able to resolve the crisis in the capital, I will make the Immortal the Imperial Preceptor."
Hearing this, Qing Huanzi couldn't help but be stunned.
Not to mention whether he has such great magic power, even if he really understands immortal magic, he would not be able to do this!
What's more, this is the first time he meets the Zhao Guan family and he is asked like this. This is really... a bit of a sudden illness and he has to seek medical treatment indiscriminately!
He is indeed a foolish king!
Qing Huanzi sighed secretly in his heart, but this was exactly what he wanted, so he raised his hands and saluted:
"Your Majesty, that Li Gui is the descendant of the Heavenly Killer Star. Only the Heavenly Kuixing Star in this world can subdue this person."
"Your Majesty can order Song Jiang, the leader of the day, to come to the capital to serve the king. He will definitely be able to defeat the bandit army in one fell swoop and relieve the danger of the capital."
