"Princess, what are you talking about?——"
Princess Luojia's words not only confused Li Zhi, but Rutoluo and Indra next to him were equally confused.
It turned out that after Li Zhi and Princess Luojia were fed the "Yin Yang Fruit" by Demon King Bo Xun in the "Tian Mo Palace" that day, the whole person fell into a mysterious realm.
So much so that after thinking about it, Li Zhi couldn't remember what he had experienced at that time.
It wasn't until Rutuolo came to tell her that he and Princess Luojia had a daughter that Li Zhi vaguely knew what happened that year.
However, just when Li Zhi had completely recognized that Xiao Liluo was his daughter and Princess Rosa was his woman, he was told that he and Princess Rosa were not actually married.
Isn’t this too incredible?
What's even more outrageous is that the person who told him this was none other than Princess Rosa herself.
"Princess Rosa, do you mean that Luo'er is the product of you and me taking the Yin-Yang Fruit, and not the crystallization of Yin-Yang ***?"
After all, Li Zhi "knows a lot", especially about the life and death between gods and demons, many of which have incredible origins.
"Yes, if His Highness Prince Jin feels that the marriage contract between you and me was imposed by your father, you can choose to break the contract now. Anyway, my Heavenly Demon Palace is now..."
Perhaps thinking of the current situation of the "Tianmo Palace", or the "broken contract", Princess Luojia was really reluctant to give up, and she couldn't say any more after she was halfway through speaking.
"Princess Rosa, no matter what, you and I have had a formal engagement, and it has been approved by both parents."
"Luo'er is already so old, and now the Heavenly Demon Palace is in a state of turmoil. You...you should follow me back to Chang'an. You should have a place in Prince Jin's palace."
Thinking about the favor shown to him by Demon King Bo Xun and looking at his well-behaved daughter Li Luo, how could Li Zhi say anything harmful to little Princess Rosa again.
"That...that..."
Hearing what Li Zhi said, Princess Rosa's face turned red.
"Mom, you don't know how powerful your father is, and Luo'er is also a 'Daluo Jinxian'. From now on, we will protect you together."
After all, Xiao Liluo was only four years old, and his understanding of some things was vague. He held his parents one by one and swung them around excitedly.
"Lord, let's leave here quickly. As for other matters, we have to discuss it in the long term."
At this time, the mature and prudent Indra came over. Looking at the warm scene of Li Zhi's family of three, he couldn't help but think of the princesses who were under house arrest in the "Demon Palace".
However, Indra knew very well that just a few of them would not be able to break through the three killing formations of the "Devil Palace" no matter what.
"Wait a minute, I'll remove Princess Jia's seal first and then-"
Li Zhi, who had the "Golden Eyes of Deception", could naturally see Princess Luo Jia's physical condition clearly. He reached out and touched Princess Luo Jia's lower back with one palm.
In full view of everyone, Li Zhi suddenly made this move, and Princess Luo Jia couldn't help but blush.
Instinctively, he wanted to get out of the way, but he thought that the extraordinary-looking His Highness Prince Jin in front of him was his daughter's biological father, wasn't he?
Princess Rosa simply closed her eyes and felt a cool breath coming from her waist, which instantly spread throughout her body.
Princess Luojia's cultivation was sealed by Demon King Shiva, and it was only a seal at the peak level of "Daluo Golden Immortal". For Li Zhi, who possesses the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus, it shouldn't be too easy to lift the seal.
"Thank you......"
After drinking some tea, Princess Rosa finally felt that her cultivation had returned, and she lowered her head and said dreamily.
Princess Rosa was slightly shocked in her heart. She originally knew that Li Zhi's cultivation level was far behind her own.
It’s a pity that it’s only been a short time
How could he become so strong in just a few years?
"Let's go back first. I have a strong hunch that something may have happened in Chang'an City."
...
Looking south to Buzhou, Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty.
Accompanied by Nezha and Rutuoluo, Li Zhi left Jin Prince's Mansion and went to the Demon Realm to fulfill the appointments with the demon gods, especially to rescue his little daughter Li Luo.
In the absence of Li Zhi, the affairs of the Prince Jin's palace were naturally in charge of the newly promoted Princess Jin "Three Holy Mothers" Yang Chan.
After all, he is a disciple of a saint and a disciple of a great sect. Yang Chan, who first took over the charge of the Jin Palace, used the "Lotus Lamp" and the "Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map" in his hands to improve the defense of the Jin Palace by several levels.
"Bai Zhi, here is a set of the 'Three Lights Cloud Water Formation'. You can practice it with it first to get familiar with it. It can be used as a protective formation for our Prince Jin's Mansion."
"This formation relies on the power of the three lights of the sun, moon, and stars. It can operate normally no matter day or night."
"I will use the Lotus Lantern to communicate with the Golden Dragon of the Tang Dynasty, and bind the entire spiritual vein of Chang'an to the Jin Palace. Even if the Great Luo Golden Immortal comes, you can block it with this formation."
"In addition, this formation can be defended by three people, six people, or nine people. After you become familiar with it, you can teach it to Qin Huaiyu and Luo Tong first."
Yang Chan thought for a moment and then said.
"After you become proficient, pass a copy to Miss Changsun, Miss Ao and Xue Qian, so that the three of them can practice it as well. If necessary, you can work together."
This "Three Lights Cloud and Water Formation" was originally the legacy of a guest in the "Wa Palace". Yang Chan liked to tinker with formations for a while, so he learned it.
This formation can be large or small, strong or powerful. The person who can use it is not limited, but it must be a multiple of three. The power will also vary greatly depending on the strength of the person who sets up the formation.
According to the established plan, Yang Chan is about to take Li Mingda and Bai Suzhen into the "Mountains and Rivers Sheji Tu" to practice, so it is natural that the protection of the Jin Palace must be properly arranged.
"The general will obey the order of Princess Jin. Please rest assured, princess. Even if the general fights to death, he will not let the emperor and empress suffer any harm."
Although Bai Zhi was tall and thick, he was also a smart and thoughtful person. Seeing how cautious Princess Jin was in her explanation, she naturally understood that she was thinking about the safety of Tang Emperor Li Shimin and his wife.
Above the court, Prince Li Chengqian and several important ministers were in charge, and all government affairs were not bothered by the retired Li Shimin.
In the city of Chang'an, the Duke of Yi, Qin Shubao, was personally in charge, and Pei Xingjian and Su Dingfang, who had just joined Li Zhi's command, were fully assisting them. Naturally, their safety did not need to be considered.
As for the people in Prince Jin's Mansion, although there are not many people, everyone can be considered a master if they can't stand it.
Two veteran Taoists, Sun Simiao and Yuan Tiangang, are stationed all year round, and then there are three guards with Bai Zhi, Qin Huaiyu and Luo Tong who are above the level of "celestial beings".
And the eldest grandson Pingting consciously stays by the eldest grandson Wugou's side. Ao Ling and Xue Qian are also the protective gates of the inner house. Now with this "Three Lights Cloud Water Formation", the Jin Prince's Mansion, which is not big, is impregnable. Foolproof?
After everything was explained, Yang Chan took Li Mingda and Bai Suzhen to say goodbye to Li Shimin and Changsun Wugou.
After all, the three of them are expected to enter the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map" to practice for at least one year, which is equivalent to the effect of a hundred years of practice in the outside world.
"Chan'er, don't worry. Sizi is naughty and not as good as Suzhen, and the pheasant slave is not here. As my sister-in-law and master, you must not indulge her."
Seeing the three girls Yingying bowing down to, Li Shimin smiled, but the eldest grandson Wugou walked down directly and stretched out his hand to help Yang Chan up.
Changsun Wugu was one hundred and twenty satisfied with the daughter-in-law Li Zhi married. She had an outstanding appearance and a humble personality, but she also had such a scary background.
I heard from Xiao Sizi that this daughter-in-law's cultivation level was even more frightening. Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, there was no one with a higher cultivation level than her.
"Mother, how could you arrange your own daughter like this? Who is being naughty? Sizi has been honest and obedient since he was a child.
. "
Changsun Wugou originally spoke modestly, but Li Mingda was a little "unhappy" and protested from the side.
"Mother, please rest assured that my daughter-in-law can take care of it. My daughter-in-law has already explained the affairs in Prince Jin's palace. If you really encounter a big problem, you can ask Yun'er to call me at Xunkanju."
Yun'er is the personal maid of Yang Chan, the "Three Holy Mothers". She followed her when she was in the "Wa Palace". She was originally a colorful cloud outside the "Wa Palace".
The little girl has followed Yang Chan for so many years, and is now in the early stage of "Golden Immortal". Her combat power is not very high, at least she can protect herself.
When Yang Chan and others wanted to enter the "Shanhe Sheji Tu" to practice, Yun'er was temporarily assigned to Changsun Wugou's side, one to serve and the other to protect him.
After everything was arranged, Yang Chan and the others entered the "Mountains and Rivers Society Map" to practice, which naturally opened the maximum time flow ratio of one to one hundred.
"Xunkanju" is also a good choice. When Yang Chan left, he handed over the control of this place to his eldest grandson Pingting.
Yang Chan knew in her heart that this eldest grandson Pingting had a unique status in the Jin Palace.
Even though her cultivation level is far inferior to that of Yang Chan and Ao Ling, and even Bai Suzhen cannot catch up, she is just between brothers with Li Mingda, but she is the "old man" here.
He is the "childhood sweetheart" of His Highness Prince Jin, and he is also a member of the eldest grandson's family. This kind of difference has earned Yang Chan's special regard.
However, if Yang Chan understands the general situation so well, how can the eldest grandson Pingting show favoritism?
She did not enjoy the control of "Xunkanju" alone, but simply took Ao Ling, Xue Qian and Yun'er along with her.
Nowadays, the most important practice for everyone in the Jin Palace is naturally the "Physical Jue" and "Heart Dao" passed down by Li Zhi. Even Li Shimin and his wife are no exception.
This is Li Zhi's unique skill. It is not only a skill that can be practiced internally and externally, but also benefits Li Zhi himself, the person who teaches it. Naturally, everyone practices it endlessly.
...
Another year passed, half a year after Li Zhi and the other three left.
Although Li Shimin had announced his retirement, because no new emperor had succeeded him, people in the Tang Dynasty still used to commemorate the year in Zhenguan. This was the "32nd year of Zhenguan".
In the early spring of March, everything revives, and the people of Chang'an, who are peaceful and peaceful, often go out in groups to go outing in the suburbs, in addition to necessary work.
Outside Chang'an City, the most ideal place to go is to the north, west or south. However, the north is close to the imperial city. For safety and taboo reasons, ordinary people still like to go out of the west gate or south gate.
This day was another sunny day.
Even though there was still a slight cool breeze in the early morning, as soon as the west gate of Chang'an City opened, there were many horses, vehicles or pedestrians calling friends and leaving the city.
But dozens of miles away from the West City Gate, several people floated over in mid-air. To be precise, they should be four people and one horse.
The one in the middle is tall and slightly fat, with a face like a crown of jade. He wears a Vairocana hat with a lotus embroidered in the center of the top of the hat and colorful jewelry on it.
He was wearing an earth-yellow monk's robe and a "brocade cassock". He was holding a "nine-ring tin staff" in his hand and a pair of monk shoes with six holes on his feet.
This person can be said to have a majestic appearance, with eight-part eyebrows, eyes as bright as stars, looking like a spring breeze, with a hundred paces of majesty in front of and behind him, just like a statue of a virtuous holy monk.
If you look to the left and right in front of him, that's not the case.
Immediately to the left of the holy monk, slightly forward, there is a "man" about four feet tall, or a monkey man is more appropriate.
This monkey man didn't have a steady mind. Sometimes he scratched his ears and cheeks, sometimes he laughed and stuck out his tongue, and he kept pointing and asking questions in front of the holy monk.
But on the right side of the holy monk, there is a more distinctive one, with a black face, short hair, a long beak and big ears, carrying a "Shangbao Qin Golden Rake".
There are a pair of small eyes on the face, and there are some small wrinkles under the eyes, which makes him look very honest. His mouth is very big and his lips
It's very thick, looks very funny, but doesn't look good at all when you smile.
Looking back, there is another person standing. This person is the tallest among these people.
Wearing a clustered red hat on his head, wearing a dark red cassock, and holding a "True Treasure Staff for Subduing Demons", his eyes are bright and his face is calm, giving people a sense of calmness and stability, which makes people want to Get close to him.
Behind these four people, there was also a handsome white horse carrying several large cloth bags. Since these people were all monks, it must be that the white horse was carrying scriptures.
"Apprentices, it has been seventeen years, and my master is back again——"
Who is this group of people?
Naturally, it was the foursome who traveled all the way to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures: Tang Xuanzang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Monk Sha, and the dragon horse Ao Lie.
If Li Zhi were here, he would definitely sigh that the established trajectory of "history" is really difficult to change.
These few people were "messed up" by Li Zhi for several years, but finally went to the Great Leiyin Temple in Xitian, obtained the true scriptures, and completely achieved enlightenment.
Tang Monk awakened the memory and cultivation of "Golden Chanzi", and immediately reached the realm of "quasi-sage" by beheading a corpse, and was named "Zhantan Merit Buddha" by Tathagata Buddha.
Sun Wukong was also named the "Victorious Fighting Buddha", but he didn't know what went wrong. He didn't gain much merit, and his realm only reached the middle stage of "Great Luo Golden Immortal"?
Even though Zhu Bajie was not very happy, he still accepted the reward of "Jingtan Envoy", but threatened to visit Gaolaozhuang first after returning to Chang'an with Tang Monk.
As for Monk Sha, he wasn’t very active along the way and didn’t show much of his face. He just relied on being the “chosen one”. If there is no credit, there must be hard work, right?
"Golden Arhat" is the final outcome of Monk Sha. Compared with the "Rolling Curtain General" who was in heaven back then, which one is higher or lower? I'm afraid only he knows it in his heart.
Long Ma Ao Lie was also lucky enough to enter the "Eight Treasures Dragon Transformation Pond", which greatly tempered his body.
The most important thing is that Ao Lie felt a crisp sound in his Dantian, as if something was broken?
Unfortunately, that was after Xitianling Mountain. Ao Lie suppressed his inner curiosity and suppressed his cultivation, but he did not dare to break through to the peak of "Taiyi Golden Immortal".
Just imagine, the second senior brother Zhu Bajie is only at the peak of "Taiyi Golden Immortal" and has not yet entered the ranks of Daluo. The third senior brother, Sha Monk, is only at the early stage of "Taiyi Golden Immortal".
In the middle stage of Ao Lie's "Taiyi Golden Immortal", he was already quite low-key.
In the eyes of others, it is just a dragon horse. If Ao Lie does not suppress it, then it is possible to break through the peak of "Taiyi Golden Immortal" again. Wouldn't that be a hornet's nest?
"Master, we will arrive in Chang'an soon. Shall we lower the clouds first to avoid scaring the mortals in the city?"
These few people traveled across the state, traveled thousands of miles westward, and experienced countless things in the country and city-states. They naturally knew how honorable they were. It was rare for Zhu Bajie to make this suggestion.
Five miles west of Chang'an City, these few people landed from the sky.
Unfortunately, it was the time when people in Chang'an went out for an outing. They wanted to keep a low profile, so they disturbed many pedestrians as soon as they landed.
"Wow, the monster is here, run quickly——"
"Go back to the city quickly and inform General Qin to guard the city gates——"
...
All of a sudden, there were people shouting, people on horseback, people in cars, people on foot, all turned around and ran towards Chang'an City.
Five miles away, can you still stand and run?
The horse was so fast that he was back in the blink of an eye.
"General Su is on duty, great! General Su, there are some monsters coming from the west of the city. Please close the city gate quickly——"
The man shouted and beat Ma Rufei into Chang'an City, without even daring to stop and watch the excitement.
"Monsters? When did monsters appear in the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty?"
It was Su Dingfang who was inspecting the West City today.
At the wedding of His Royal Highness the King of Jin half a year ago, Su Dingfang, Pei Xingjian and Hou Junji all received their mentor Li Jing as a "congratulatory gift"
Li Zhi.
In the past six months, the Jin Palace had not treated them badly, although Hou Junji was sent to Xu Maogong in northern Xinjiang, and Su Dingfang and Pei Xingjian were under Qin Shubao's staff.
However, these three people were also awarded the two skills of "Physical Technique" and "Heart Dao" by Li Zhi. Just one month later, Pei Xingjian was the first to break through to the "Celestial Immortal" realm and successfully survived the thunder tribulation of the Celestial Immortal.
Su Dingfang also survived his own Heavenly Immortal Thunder Tribulation years ago, but it was a little worse than Pei Xingjian. It was only the "Three Nine Thunder Tribulations" and could not keep up with Pei Xingjian's "Six Nine Thunder Tribulations".
As for Hou Junji, after all, Northern Xinjiang is far away. Although these three people come from the same sect, they are not affiliated with each other now, and there is no correspondence between them.
"Prepare to close the city gate and send someone to inform Prince Jin's Mansion and His Highness the Crown Prince. When I go out to watch——"
Su Dingfang was also an upright person. When he saw that there were still many people running towards Chang'an City outside the city, he naturally could not directly order the city gate to be closed.
Su Dingfang mounted a war horse, shook a pair of "water-milled steel whips" in his hands, and rushed out of the city gate.
"Quick, go back to the city -"
As Su Dingfang rushed forward, he shouted to the people running towards him, and soon he arrived in front of Tang Monk and the others.
"Is this... really a monster?"
Su Dingfang also ran forward, and Su Dingfang was dumbfounded.
The key is that his sitting horse, which is also a rare good horse in the Tang army, is just there "treading" the ground, not daring to move forward.
"Hey, who is that person coming across from you, and why did you come to Chang'an to cause trouble?——"
No matter how scared he was, Su Dingfang gritted his teeth and screamed, and hit the whip with his left hand against the whip with his right hand, clearly to embolden himself.
"Hehe, Master, this Tang Dynasty really cannot be underestimated. A general guarding the city is actually a 'celestial immortal'. Isn't this different from what you said?"
Tang Seng was born in the Tang Dynasty and traveled for seventeen years. Naturally, he would also tell his disciples some about the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty.
Especially Tang Seng, who was led astray by Li Zhi, he had practiced all the way. When approaching Lingshan, Tang Seng actually broke through to the late stage of "Transcending Tribulation".
If you give this person some more time, I'm afraid he will have to go through his own Heavenly Immortal Thunder Tribulation.
And in the entire Tang Dynasty, when Tang Monk left that year, how could there be anyone at the level of "celestial being"?
"Hehe, it's true, Senior Brother, why don't you go over and play with him?——"
Having learned the lesson and about to go their separate ways, Zhu Bajie seems to have returned to the mentality he had a few years ago.
However, he used his eyesight to look at Chang'an City.
"Kuroro, are you here?..."
"Wukong must not be rude. He is just a little immortal. How can he withstand your iron rod? Please wait here for a while, and I will go over and explain to him personally."
Tang Monk also saw Su Dingfang coming towards him. This was a middle-aged general, but he had the cultivation of a "celestial immortal". I'm afraid he was not an unknown person in the entire Tang Dynasty, right?
"Amitabha, the general opposite has invited me. I wonder who the general is?——"
Tang Monk strode forward, clasped his hands, and chanted the Buddha's name loudly. The sound was like a loud bell, and it seemed that the entire city of Chang'an could hear it.
"this......"
Just by saying the Buddha's name, Su Dingfang understood that he was definitely no match for the visitor.
Su Dingfang was anxious in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He hurriedly dismounted from his saddle and came to Tang Seng.
"Master, you are very polite. I am a general under the command of His Royal Highness the King of Jin. My surname is Su Minglie and my given name is Dingfang. I don't know how you call me master? Why are you here in Chang'an City?"
Tang Monk treated each other with courtesy, so Su Dingfang naturally didn't want to be violent. Besides, did he dare?
"Under the command of the King of Jin? Su Dingfang? The poor monk is Tang Sanzang who worshiped Buddha and prayed to the Buddha in the West seventeen years ago under the orders of the Emperor of Tang. The people behind him are the three disciples of the poor monk."
"Now that I have completed my merits and obtained the true scripture, I don't know where the Emperor of Tang is? Where is the pheasant slave?
exist? "
Su Dingfang is not a young man anymore. Before Tang Seng went west, he was also a famous person in the Tang Dynasty. Tang Seng had naturally heard of him.
After hearing him say that he was under the command of the King of Jin, Tang Seng naturally got closer to him.
"What? Are you Master Tripitaka who went west to obtain Buddhist scriptures? Is this... is this true?"
Monk Tang went to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures, and even King Li Zhi of Jin followed him for four years. No one else knew about this, so how could Su Dingfang, who had become a subordinate of King Jin, not know?
"Haha, this is the customs clearance document given by the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. General Su, please read it."
Although Tang Monk is already a "quasi-sage" and will still preach scriptures in the Eastern Lands in the future, he will naturally treat the generals of the Tang Dynasty with courtesy.
"Amitabha, His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, the poor monk has returned. Why don't you come and meet your imperial disciple?"
Just when Su Dingfang received the "Customs Clearance Document", Tang Seng seemed to have a sudden impulse and clasped his hands together again.
The Buddha's trembling voice did not alarm the people in the city, but allowed the entire palace to hear it clearly...
