"Huh? So you are here."
A voice sounded above their heads. Fang Jian and Black Python Immortal looked up and saw Lan Caihe and Emperor Shitian coming in the clouds, and soon landed next to the bonfire.
The Black Python Immortal stood up in a hurry, with a very respectful expression on his face, but this respect was for Emperor Shitian, because he had already seen the power of Emperor Shitian in the demon world, the Buddhist Bodhisattva, and the Taiyi Golden Immortal. A big shot that I can't even imagine.
"Don't be so formal." Emperor Shitian saw the Black Python Immortal bowing his head and saluting him and said, "There are too many vulgar rituals, and it will be inconvenient to come and go."
The Black Python Immortal quickly responded: "Yes, thank you Bodhisattva for your advice."
Fang Jian sat on the floor and did not bow when he saw the two of them. He just took out two more jars of fairy wine and said, "There is a lot of wine today."
Lan Caihe caught the wine jar and held it in his arms, and said with a depressed look: "It's a pity that all my Sumeru magic weapons were destroyed by those evildoers. It's a pity that there are so many wine elixirs. And my flower basket, that's a pity." It’s a low-grade spiritual treasure.”
Fang Jian smiled and said: "If the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come."
Lan Caihe heard this and said: "What you said is not bad. The Western Emperor has promised to give me a new flower basket and a jade plate! They are all at the level of fairy treasures."
"Emperor of the West?" Black Python Immortal was stunned for a moment when he heard this, with some confusion on his face.
Fang Jian explained: "It is the Emperor Haotian of the West, also known as the White Emperor."
Lan Caihe raised his hand and pointed to the sky above his head and said: "That is the God of Haotian World, His Majesty the Emperor of the West."
The Black Python Immortal was momentarily stunned, but he felt that Lan Caihe was bragging, "Are you bragging? Why did His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven give you a magic weapon?"
Lan Caihe smiled and said, "Because starting from tomorrow, I will be the 'General You Yitian' of Western Haotian."
"Ah?" Black Python Immortal was surprised, "You mean you are going to heaven to become an immortal official?"
Lan Caihe nodded and said, "Yes, His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven invited me there."
"I don't believe it." The Black Python Immortal said he didn't believe it, but he already half believed it in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Fang Jianze said: "With your status in heaven, going to Haotian in the West to become a general is a bit of a debasement, right?"
Lan Caihe said with a smile: "I haven't returned to my position yet, so His Majesty the White Emperor asked me to go to his place as an errand first. When I return to my position, I will naturally go back and continue to be my Eight Immortals in the Shangdong."
Fang Jian nodded, and when the Black Python Immortal heard Fang Jian's words, he looked jealous and said: "We are both true immortals, why can you be called by the Emperor of Heaven to be an immortal official? I can't?"
"Hahaha." Di Shitian on the side laughed when he heard this. He looked at the Black Python Immortal and said, "I have a background myself. Can you, a wild immortal, compare to me? You better be good. Find a way to transform into a dragon, don't be too ambitious, you will still be able to survive in this fairyland from now on."
Hearing what Emperor Shitian said, the Black Python Immortal quickly bowed to Emperor Shitian and said, "The Bodhisattva's power is boundless. I wonder if the little immortal has a chance to enter Buddhism?"
Emperor Shitian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It's not just the poor monk's bad words. To be honest, with your talent, you can't even be a mount in my Buddhist sect."
The Black Python Immortal was deeply shocked by Emperor Shitian's ruthless words, his face was pale and extremely embarrassed.
When Fang Jian saw this scene, he immediately said: "Di Shitian, what you said is too much. If fellow Taoist Black Python Immortal succeeds in transforming into a dragon, even if you ask him to be your mount, he may not be willing to do so."
Emperor Shitian looked at Fang Jian with some surprise and said: "Fellow Taoist, your words are very suitable for the poor monk. The poor monk came with Lan Cai and fellow Taoist this time just to make friends with fellow Taoist."
Lan Cai and Chao Fangjian said: "He followed him here, not me."
Fang Jian smiled slightly and said, "It's okay to make friends. Just drink the wine from the jar in front of you."
Emperor Shitian laughed and said, "What's so difficult about this?"
After saying that, I saw Emperor Shitian grabbing the wine jar, slapping the seal off the wine with his hand, and started drinking with a bang. In a short time, Emperor Shitian drank up the whole jar of immortal wine.
"A good drinker." Fang Jian said: "As a Buddhist Bodhisattva, fellow Taoist Emperor Shaktian, I didn't expect that he has such a good drinker."
Emperor Shitian smiled and said: "I don't know how many times this poor monk has participated in this immortal banquet in heaven and earth. Naturally, he has developed his drinking capacity."
Lan Caihe said: "But isn't the Buddhist precepts prohibiting drinking? As a Bodhisattva, can you ignore the precepts?"
Of course Emperor Shitian would not be trapped by Lan Caihe's language trap. Hearing the words, he smiled and said: "All the precepts are to prevent all kinds of desires, such as drinking alcohol. If it is excessive, it will produce greed, anger, and desire." Remember, this poor monk has practiced so far and has already been able to avoid all kinds of desires. Since he can’t think of desires, he doesn’t break the precepts and can drink alcohol.”
"Besides, this wine is made from wine elixir refined from fairy fruits and fairy grass. It does not commit murder, so why can't it be drunk?" Emperor Shi Tianchao Lan Caihe asked rhetorically.
"Papa papa", there was a sound of clapping, and Lan Caihe was seen clapping his hands while praising: "Sure enough, the tongue is like a lotus flower, I have seen it."
Fang Jian smiled slightly. He did not dwell on this, but asked: "Is the opportunity for fellow Taoist Zi Zai Tian available?"
Emperor Shitian nodded immediately and said: "Okay, it turns out that the opportunity was to make a vow to establish the 'Zi Zi Chan Yuan', and then he obtained the miracle of the 'Zi Zi Dao'."
This was almost the same as the secret that Fang Jian had mastered, but he still pretended to have a sudden realization on his face, "So that's it, then the next time I see fellow Daoist Zi Zaitian, he will be the Taiyi Golden Immortal."
"Yes." Emperor Shitian smiled, "He is the third person among our twenty heavens to become the Taiyi Golden Immortal."
"Congratulations." Fang Jian poured a bowl of wine, congratulated Emperor Shitian, and drank the wine in one gulp.
At this time, Black Python Fairy suddenly said: "The meat is ready."
Then I saw the Black Python Immortal taking down the venison from the shelf. At this moment, the venison was roasted to a golden color and the meat was fragrant. He first gave Fang Jian a piece of deer breast, and then took a piece of venison spine. He gave it to Lan Caihe, and then he held the largest piece of hind leg meat with both hands and handed it to Emperor Shitian beside him.
Emperor Shitian took the hind leg meat, and then saw the Black Python Immortal picking up the piece of meat from the belly of the green deer and eating it.
Emperor Shitian, Fang Jian, and Lan Caihe looked at each other, and then laughed.
The Black Python Immortal, who had already taken a bite of venison, looked at the three of them strangely. He asked with some confusion: "Why are you laughing?"
Emperor Shitian looked at the Black Python Immortal and smiled and said, "I take back what I just said. If you join my Buddhist sect, you can still become a great monk."
"Oh? Really? Bodhisattva, why?" Black Python Fairy's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
Emperor Shitian said: "What's the point of dividing the meat like this?"
The Black Python Immortal was stunned when he heard this, and then became a little stunned. This was a small calculation in his heart, so he was naturally embarrassed to say it out like this.
But Emperor Shitian said at this moment: "You can't tell me, so I'll tell you. The reason why you share deer breast meat with Taoist Fang is because you have the best relationship with him, and deer breast meat is the tenderest and most delicious, so you share it with him." You gave Lan Cai and fellow Taoist a portion of the deer spine. Although the meat was small, it was chewy and crispy. And because he has become an immortal official now, you didn’t dare to offend him, so you gave him the deer spine. Meat. What you gave me was the hind leg meat. Although the hind leg meat is not as tender as the breast meat and not as crispy as the spine meat, it is the richest and richest. And you wanted to please the poor monk, so you gave me the hind leg meat. I killed the poor monk. In the end, when I came to you, I was left with only the worst of my belly meat. But you didn’t offend anyone, and instead you curried favor with us.”
After saying that, Emperor Shitian looked at the Black Python Immortal and said, "What the poor monk said is right or wrong."
The Black Python Immortal was directly pointed out by Emperor Shitian. Although he was very embarrassed, he was not pretentious. He immediately put down the venison in his hand and worshiped Emperor Shitian: "The Bodhisattva has great magical powers and penetrates the human heart. The little immortal admires him."
Emperor Shitian also put down the venison in his hand at this time. He took out a jade album from his sleeve and gave it to the Black Python Immortal. He said: "Seeing that you have an exquisite heart, the poor monk will give you a jade album." This is not a magic weapon. This is the "Vajra Prajna Paramita Sutra" handwritten by a poor monk. It is given to you. If you sit with your mouth clean and recite it for an hour every day, it can help you eliminate your karma as soon as possible and transform into a dragon body as soon as possible. .”
Looking at the jade album with a faint Buddha light in front of him, the Black Python Immortal was ecstatic. He quickly took the "Vajra Prajna Paramita Sutra" with both hands, then kowtowed and said, "I thank the Bodhisattva for giving me the sutra."
Emperor Shitian smiled slightly and said: "Okay, there is no need to be so polite. Eating meat and drinking wine is the most important thing now."
The next day, Lan Caihe and Xiang Fangjian, who had eaten and drank enough, said goodbye to the Black Python Immortal and then went to heaven to become officials.
When Emperor Shitian saw Lan Caihe leaving, he didn't intend to stay any longer and stood up to leave.
Fang Jian looked at him and said, "Is fellow Taoist Emperor Shitian going back to Buddhism?"
"We can't go back yet." Emperor Shitian waved his hand and said, "Zizai Chanyuan has just been established. Fellow Taoist Chi Guotian and I will help fellow Taoist Zizai Tian stay in this great world of Haotian for a few years."
After saying that, Emperor Shitian looked at Fang Jian and said: "Fellow Taoist Fang, I always feel that you are an extraordinary person. As long as I am still in Haotian World from now on, if anything happens to fellow Taoist, just ask, and there will be a poor monk who can help." help."
Fang Jian smiled and said, "Okay, then I'd like to thank fellow Taoist Emperor Shitian."
Emperor Shitian clasped his hands together, chanted a Buddha's name loudly, then turned around and rode on the clouds, disappearing into the sky in an instant.
After Emperor Shitian and Lan Caihe left, Black Python Immortal had finished sitting and chanting sutras and woke up.
"The two of us are left again." Black Python Immortal said standing behind Fang Jian.
Fang Jian smiled and said: "Yes, there are only two of us left again, let's go."
The Black Python Immortal asked: "Where are we going now?"
Fang Jian said: "You continue to look for your lucky person to ask for silence, and I will continue to sell my spiritual tea."
"Okay." Black Python Immortal nodded, then turned around and looked at the green mountains and vast mountains, and asked: "Fellow Daoist Fang, do you still want to walk with your feet?"
Fang Jian said: "Of course, the road always has to be walked step by step."
Then, the two started to set off again, passing through thousands of mountains and rivers, selling spiritual tea and looking for opportunities. Finally, half a year later, the two came to the center of Yanluo Continent, where the Taiyin Immortal Temple is located. 'Mingweizhou'.
