Monk Xuyan didn't have a clear head. He didn't believe Xiang Qianqiu's paintings at all, and he didn't want to be a national teacher or establish any orthodoxy.
During the Lingshan Chaos more than two hundred years ago, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva escaped into the devil's path and was suppressed under Lingshan Mountain. He was the Arhat closest to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
I once had the opportunity to be promoted to Bodhisattva and was guided by him many times.
After Ksitigarbha was suppressed, he had doubts and wanted to see the Buddha to defend Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. However, he was rebuked by Manjushri Bodhisattva and had to chant sutras for thirty years before he was forgiven.
But the thirty years of chanting sutras and cultivating his mind did not erase his thoughts at all. Seeing that he was not in harmony with Lingshan, he left Lingshan and incarnated into false words, meaning false words. He has not returned yet.
All you have in this life is freedom and freedom, and you can no longer be restrained.
"It doesn't matter how many people you tell me. As long as you promise, I will definitely do what you promised." Who said there can only be one National Preceptor? Just give it a false name.
As long as Dragon Subduing Arhat is willing to do things for him, the position of a national master is nothing.
This man was once an Arhat, and he had already advanced a step further in his century-old practice. He was not weak, so he had no choice but to win over him.
"What the poor monk wants is nothing more than freedom. Donor Xiang should give up this thought." Xuyan shook his head and refused.
After staring at him for a moment, Xiang Qianqiu let out a sigh of relief:
"Forget it, think about it for yourself. My promise has always been valid. Now that you have nothing to do, please do one more thing for me."
"It won't work for a while. I have one more thing to do."
"I'll add more money."
"How much more?"
"How much do you want?"
"Just kidding, the poor monk is really busy and has been unable to escape for a while. Donor Xiang might as well ask someone else to help you. You and I will meet again in the future if we are destined."
Monk Xuyan laughed, turned and left.
He took out a wine gourd from his sleeve. Although it contained ordinary wine, it was a rare strong wine in the world. To him, the taste was much better than any spiritual wine.
"Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, but the Buddha's heart remains..."
Monk Xuyan shook his head and hummed, gradually walking away.
Xiang Qianqiu kept staring at him and frowned when he saw that his figure was no longer visible. However, he did not force it, but turned around and escaped into the void.
The surroundings were extremely peaceful, just like before.
...
...
Inside Qingzhou City.
Chen Yuan, who was wearing a simple green shirt, took just over a day to arrive in Qingzhou City, which he had not seen for nearly half a year. As the most elite gathering place in Qingzhou, there were still a lot of people.
Government servants and military guards from the Xuntian Division can be seen everywhere, as are Ninggang Warriors and Foundation Establishment Warriors, with the exception of Tongxuan Warriors.
Compared to the capital, this place is obviously two levels lower.
But for Chen Yuan, this is the best.
His cultivation level has reached the level of Huayang, but in the capital, he is only average and cannot be considered the top class. However, in the state capital below, the strong men who can fight the gods are already among the top class.
Even establishing a top sect is nothing.
It's just that this is a slap in the face of the court, which is almost impossible. One day he is a patrol angel, and he has to be a patrol angel all his life. Unless Chen Yuan's strength can make the court afraid, he can only sit back and watch the slap in the face.
There was nothing to stop in Zhongzhou. After meeting Princess Pingyang that day, he never stopped to rest and there was no disturbance.
After leaving the capital, with Chen Yuan's current status and strength, it is no exaggeration to say that the ocean is vast and the fish can leap, the sky is high and the birds can fly, the dragon can fly out of the sea, and the roc can rise with the wind.
When passing through Qingzhou, the journey will be similar to the previous one. First, I will go to see Jiang He, convey the words of my sister-in-law Li Hongshuang, and then ask about the situation in Shuzhou.
At this moment, inside the Qingzhou Tianxun Division.
Jin envoy Jiang He, two Dan realm deputy envoys, and eight patrolling green envoys who had no missions set up a large formation to prepare for the upcoming new Tianzi divine envoy.
If Jiang He hadn't stopped him, even the state pastor and the military general would have come.
Although Qingzhou is not directly under the control of the governor of the Three Prefectures Surveying Department, he still has to welcome the Lord. A third-rank imperial official with the title of Marquis of Wanhu is basically equivalent to a violent killing in the state capital below.
Except for the Duke of the country and the king with a different surname, no one has a higher title than Chen Yuan.
Just ask, who dares to disobey?
It took less than two and a half years to get to where we are now. To be honest, many people were very confused. The two deputy envoys and several young envoys were all beings who had dealt with Chen Yuan.
In the blink of an eye, while he was still standing still, that person had become an important minister in the court. This sense of gap was really extraordinary.
During the greeting process, many people were still peeking at the Jin ambassador Jiang He at the front, with meaningful eyes. They all had such a gap.
What will happen to Jiang He, who was once Chen Houye's immediate boss?
It should be nice to look at him, but I also feel uncomfortable thinking about it.
It's a pity that they thought wrong. Jiang He didn't miss anything at all, and his expression was still very calm, as if he was just a divine envoy who came to greet him.
The only thing that makes a difference is the name.
When Chen Yuan met him before, he would always refer to himself as subordinate, humble position, and lower official, and he would also call him that in the future.
Quite interesting.
Not long after, Chen Yuan arrived at the Tianxun Division. When he arrived in Qingzhou City, he had already informed the local officials that this time he was not on a mission and there was no need to cover his whereabouts.
He was ordered to control the three states and return to his hometown in glory!
Speaking of vanity, there is some, but not much. In essence, it is to announce his arrival in the south, paving the way for future events and building momentum.
Everywhere he looked, there were eyes of admiration and admiration.
Jiang He looked calmly, bowed and clasped his fists:
"Jiang He, the lower official, has met the divine envoy!"
"Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty..."
As soon as Jiang He moved, a group of people behind him leaned forward to salute at the same time, with respectful expressions.
Once upon a time, it was like this when Chen Yuan saw Jiang He for the first time. Now it was a bit interesting. He smiled and nodded slightly.
With a thought, an invisible force of heaven and earth supported everyone present.
"We are all old acquaintances, so there is no need to be polite."
"Thank you, sir."
"Thank you, sir."
The sounds kept coming and going.
Jiang He welcomed Chen Yuan into the Heaven Patrol Hall. This time, Chen Yuan was at the top, while Jiang He and the patrol angels at all levels below sat obediently at the bottom.
Chen Yuan actually had nothing to say to these people. After some encouragement, he let them go down, leaving Jiang He alone.
In an instant, the Xantian Hall was enveloped by an invisible restriction, blocking outsiders' investigation. Jiang He, who was still a little respectful, quickly returned to his true self.
It's still cold and the ancient well has no waves.
No joy, anger, sorrow or joy can be seen.
"Just come."
Jiang He's words were still concise.
"It is a blessing in the world to be freed from the suffering of the capital city."
"Haha." Chen Yuandan laughed:
"When I come back this time, my sister-in-law asked me to convey a few words to you."
"What words?"
"I want you to go to the capital quickly. If that doesn't work, she will leave secretly."
"There is no need. She is the daughter of the Li family. How could she do such a thing as elope? If it spreads to the world, it will not look good on her face." Jiang He shook his head and disapproved.
"As long as you are aware of it, this is your private matter after all. It's okay to elope. There is no need to care about other people's opinions. However, from my point of view, I don't approve of this kind of thing.
You and I agreed before that we would go to the capital together to grab a bride. This is so bold. "
"You are not strong enough, practice as soon as possible."
Jiang He took a sip of the spirit tea.
"You can't wait too long, you just need to start making preparations from now on. By the way... Is the cause of Lu Renjia's death now conclusive? Chen thinks it was not someone from the Wusheng Cult who did it." Zai Jiang In front of the river, he had nothing to hide.
"How can I see it?"
"According to my guess, Wu Sheng Cult may have something to do with Jingtai."
Chen Yuan told Jiang He this somewhat outrageous guess.
But Jiang He frowned and looked at Chen Yuan with a strange look.
The emperor of a country colludes with demons?
No matter how you listen to it, it feels like you are joking.
"Brother Jiang, don't believe it?"
"First tell me the source of your guess."
Seeing that Chen Yuan's words didn't seem to be fake, Jiang He was now half-convinced. Although Chen Yuan occasionally made some harmless jokes, he obviously wouldn't do it at this time.
"I have three guesses. First, we made a big fuss in the Imperial City before..."
Chen Yuan told Jiang He all the information he knew, whether it was about the previous royal family's ancestor worship or the strange things about Jingtai.
Jiang He was Chen Yuan's advisor among the Taoist masters in the Taoist Palace. Apart from Su Ziyue, he was the one he trusted the most. He knew his character well and this kind of thing would never be spread to outsiders.
And the reason why he said that was because he had his own plan.
I didn't say it before, but he still couldn't tell whether he would conflict with Jingtai. If they started fighting directly, it would be useless to say anything.
And now that he has not completely broken up with Jingtai, he naturally has to start planning for the future.
Jiang He has the strength of Yang Shen and is extremely powerful, so he can definitely help him a lot.
After listening to Chen Yuan's statement, Jiang He, who was still dubious at first, gradually turned serious at this moment, his eyes flickered, and he was obviously shocked by the news.
The king of a country, the lord of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, the nominal co-owner of the entire world, is involved with Wusheng Cult, a demonic force that does all evil, extracts souls and refines souls, and everyone calls for beatings. No matter who hears this, they will be shocked.
He is also included.
After a long time, Jiang He looked at Chen Yuan and said solemnly:
"This may not be true. Do you know that the imperial court has always been trying to kill the Wusheng Cult? If the Wusheng Cult is involved with Jingtai, why should it be so suppressed?"
Chen Yuan naturally knew this. After all, when his cultivation was weak, the government would kill all the demons from the Wusheng Cult whenever he encountered them, whether in Ping'an County or Nanling Mansion.
It is better to kill the wrong person than to let it go.
An iron-blooded attitude.
But, who says hostility is an enemy?
"The more this happens, the clearer the suspicion will be. You also know that once the identity of Jingtai and the demon master of Wusheng Cult is spread, his reputation will definitely be ruined and the whole world will be outraged.
Jingtai is also a bit smart, how could he not know the pros and cons? "
"What you said makes sense."
Jiang He finally confirmed Chen Yuan's statement.
There is a difference between good and evil. If he were Jingtai, he would definitely take a clear stand and kill all the demonic forces that extract souls, refine souls, and condense blood pills.
"Furthermore, if what I know is correct, Wusheng Sect has become one of the top demonic sects in the world, only in the past few decades.
In just a few decades, how could it have developed so fast without the help of big forces behind the scenes? "
The first demonic demon Chen Yuan met was a member of the Wusheng Cult. Naturally, he had some knowledge of this force. It developed very quickly. In just a few decades, it became a famous demonic sect.
Its influence spread all over the south, and the imperial court suppressed it many times to no avail. It even became more and more powerful as it suppressed, and no one could figure out who the true leader of the Wu Sheng Sect was.
I only know the slogans of Wusheng Old Mother and Wusheng Ancestors shouted by the demons of Wusheng Cult.
There are many masters in the Dan Realm alone, and among them there have also been powerful ones at the Huayang level.
"you mean...."
"Jingtai is now in his fifties and has been in power for many years. He was just a prince who was not favored at that time. If that is the case, his rise in power coincided with the time when the Wusheng Cult began to appear in the world."
Chen Yuan thought about this issue carefully not long ago, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt there was a problem.
"But what is his purpose in doing this?"
This was very puzzling, and Jiang He was only a little suspicious for a short time.
After all, the emperor has power all over the world, and has the richest cultivation resources in the world. What does he want that he cannot get? Why should we cooperate with Wusheng Cult?
Once this kind of thing is revealed, the whole world will be shocked, and he will not be able to sit on the throne at all.
It would be impossible for a normal person to do such a dangerous thing.
Chen Yuan smiled mysteriously, stared at Jiang He and said:
"Everyone knows that after the founding of the Jin Dynasty, the emperor could not live forever. The emperor who was under the pressure of the country's fate could not practice cultivation at all, could not sense the vitality of heaven and earth, let alone form elixirs and transform yang.
And Jingtai is known as the number one genius of the Sima royal family. He relied on his own talent to practice Tiandan and gained three years of life. But... if his talent is truly unparalleled, how can the Sima royal family not know about it?
It will definitely lead him to the martial arts instead of the human emperor. After all, with one more Yangshen True Lord, the throne of the Sima family can be more stable.
Therefore, I suspect that Jingtai’s Tiandan cultivation may have something to do with this matter! "
Although Chen Yuan's voice was dull, there was power in it, which made Jiang He frown and thought about this matter.
"It's possible."
"I think the possibility is quite small."
"Why are you telling me this?"
Jiang He's eyes flashed, and he vaguely guessed Chen Yuan's purpose. When he was still in the capital, he had communicated about this in the Book of Heaven.
But Chen Yuan didn't say much at that time, it was just a guess.
But now that such a question has led to so many words, it is obviously not right.
"Brother Jiang should have guessed it."
A smile appeared on Chen Yuan's face. Although Jiang He didn't talk much and was relatively cold, he had a lot of thoughts. He was cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
"Since you came to me, you should speak clearly."
Jiang He took a sip of herbal tea and looked directly at him.
"I hope that Brother Jiang and several other Taoist masters from the Taoist Palace will take advantage of this period to help me investigate this matter. The Wusheng Cult is very powerful in the south, and its base is likely to be in the south.
The power of Dao Shen Palace is not weak, and there is a chance that we can investigate the truth. "
"Then what?"
"Then?" Chen Yuan seemed to have a sneer on his lips:
"Then I have a handle and a reason in my hand. As long as this matter is exposed, the old guy Jingtai will definitely step down. As long as I continue to push forward, the world will be in chaos!
The opportunity for our Taoist Palace has also come. "
"I'm afraid it's more than that?"
"I want to kill Jingtai and start an uprising to restore complete peace to the world. These require an honest excuse. Therefore, this matter must be investigated clearly."
"You don't want to go back to the capital within one year?"
The news spread quickly in the capital, so he naturally knew about it.
"Return."
"Um?"
"Didn't you and I tell you before? Wouldn't it be good to go to the capital to grab a bride, and by the way, do something important directly?"
"How brave."
"hehe....."
"After you expose this matter and kill Jingtai, what do you want to do?"
"It's not what I want to do, it's what the Taoist Palace wants to do. You have been a member of the Taoist Palace longer than me, and you also know the intentions of the other Taoist masters and the intentions of Senior Moro.
If you want to counterattack Lingshan, this strength is not enough, unless you gather the power of the world, and only the Ninth Five Lords have the qualifications to mobilize the strongest people in the world. "
"You want to be in that position?"
Jiang He looked at him.
"Who wouldn't want to? Become the supreme king in the world, speak the constitution of heaven, follow the law, and sit on thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. No one in the world dares to disobey." Chen Yuan said in a deep voice.
This was also the first time that he showed his thoughts in front of Jiang He without any scruples.
"Do you think Jingtai has the ability to do this?" Jiang He felt funny when he heard Chen Yuan say that he had the constitution in his mouth, followed his words, and the world surrendered.
A throne cannot do these things, only strength can.
"That's because he is too useless. The Sima family has too many constraints. If they want to centralize power, they can only slowly take back their power. Several major immortal sects are not afraid of the court at all. He does not have that power."
"So what you're saying is...you can?"
"How do you know if you don't try? In life, you shouldn't live under others for a long time, but you should climb to the top and truly control your own destiny."
Chen Yuan's eyes were deep, and at this moment, his whole body seemed to be enveloped in great majesty.
"Are you also greedy for earthly imperial power?"
"If you don't take what God gives you, you will suffer the consequences. Once you get to that point, it's impossible not to sit in that position."
"You have also seen the fate of several emperors from the Jingtai and Sima families. Once you become emperor, you will be suppressed by the fate of the country. Don't you want to enjoy a long life?"
Jiang He asked back.
"Do you know Chu Taizu Yu?"
"Know."
"If he becomes the co-owner of the world, he won't have any influence. It's not that simple here."
"Decided?"
"It has been decided a long time ago. Otherwise, why do you think I am raising private soldiers in Tangshan? Why do you think I am trying my best to gain fame in Liangzhou?
Jiang He didn't speak, his eyes were thoughtful.
"Old ginger."
"Um?"
"help me."
"good!"
