On the eve of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Wangjun Mountain
Zhan Changfeng stood in front of the main hall, watching the old plaque being replaced and the new plaque being hung, with the message: Temple of Immortality.
Her statue will be enshrined in the main hall of the Changsheng Temple, and there will be fifteen side halls on both sides, where the statues of meritorious officials will be placed to share the blessings of destiny with her.
Standing in front of the Changsheng Temple, overlooking the vast square under the long white jade steps, a giant monument of a hundred feet has been erected in the center.
On the left is the hero monument. All Taiyi soldiers are qualified to leave their names on it, and they will be protected by the fate of the country. Those who have made meritorious deeds will be ranked at the front and blessed by good luck.
On the right is the Heroic Spirit Monument. If Taiyi's ministers do not die on the spot after death, they will be brought back by the Heroic Spirit Monument, leaving a glimmer of hope.
Wangjun Mountain is the source of ancestral blood, so it is perfect to use it for worship.
Zhan Changfeng stretched out her hand to catch a piece of snowflake. The coolness on her fingertips made her slightly startled, as if she could see the vast river of time flowing past her. The Shinto that had not been erected for more than a hundred thousand years would be in her hand. Stand up?
Taiyi is her country, and it is also her imperial way. At this moment when she is about to take the first step, it is rare for her to feel a little sentimental.
She touched it with two fingers, wiped away the water stains, and stared at Wangjun Mountain under the night with her hands behind her hands, her eyes calm and calm.
"Lin Yao."
The air twisted, and a figure appeared. The darkness could not hide the dazzling figure.
This is the person who was introduced to the Dragon Tower in the Desolate Realm—Jihua. He is also the Void Return Master of the Tiandao Alliance, the Venerable Yuhua.
Zhan Changfeng raised his hand in greeting and said, "I apologize for the poor reception, Your Majesty."
"I don't care about these nonsense. The Tiandao Alliance will not openly favor a certain dynasty or a certain dynasty. That's why they secretly help the members of the Yunshui Society. It's not easy for me to show up in front of others, so how can I still do it? It’s your fault.”
He held a scroll in his hand and said with a smile, "I got this thing by chance. I remembered that you asked about it, so I gave it to you as a founding gift."
Zhan Changfeng looked at the scroll rolled up in her hand attentively. His soul was dazzled by the treasure light, and he was surprised that it turned out to be a map of the country, the country, and the country.
The Jiangshan Sheji Map is a sacred treasure of innate luck. It was originally owned by Emperor Yao He who died in the war between the two emperors three thousand years ago. She once suspected that it was included in the Shenglong Pagoda, but she could not find it. She learned from Yaohua that it was He was taken away by an emperor named Yongye from thousands of years ago. Why did he appear again now?
Zhan Changfeng did not go to pick it up, "I was afraid of the crime of having a jade, so I didn't dare to accept it. Your Majesty, please take the trouble."
Jihua laughed and said, "You are so courageous, how could you be afraid of being guilty of carrying a jade? I think you are afraid of taking advantage of others."
"Your Majesty is so calm, so I won't be tactful. This gift from you is really valuable. The heavy gift I received last time hurt me."
Zhan Changfeng seemed to be talking about a trivial and funny thing, with a very casual tone and demeanor. Jiehua observed her, and after confirming that there was such a thing, she said with relief, "It won't hurt anyone, but there is indeed one condition."
"This was originally held by Emperor Yongye. He strayed into an unknown place and fell there. The true spirit entered the painting and escaped. When I went to explore that place, I accidentally obtained it."
She looked into the distance and said, "Emperor Yongye is a member of the Tiandao Alliance, and he is also the person most likely to know the details of the unknown secret realm. However, his true spirit is hidden in the painting, and no one can find it. The only one The best way is to revitalize the country and the country, and use enough luck to nourish him for his reincarnation."
"This matter cannot be rushed." Yuhua turned to look at her with some meaning, "I didn't want to give it away to you, but the sages who have seen it all said that the mountains and seas are a good place for healing."
"If you accept it, the hidden power of the Tiandao Alliance will be at your will."
Drive at will, what a great gesture.
Zhan Changfeng was unmoved and smiled gently, "Mountains and seas are good places, but my place is not. Your Majesty, give it to someone else."
"Are you worried that he will share your luck? What you pay will be rewarded. If he reincarnates with the help of your luck, he will owe you a lot of karma, and he will definitely pay you back in the future. This kind of kindness is not too bad, and it is even more important. Not to mention the support of the Tiandao Alliance."
Zhan Changfeng looked at the snowy scene indifferently. The two monuments stood pointing to the sky, like two sharp black swords piercing the white sky. "Your Majesty should have heard a saying, don't let others snore next to the bed."
Her eyes were deep, "You can give it to me if you want. Do you mind if I refine it completely?"
Complete refining means forcing the Yongye Emperor in the painting out or killing him inside.
Yaohua looked approvingly and asked, "Can you refine it?"
"Can."
"If you can refine it, just keep it and keep the true spirit alive."
"Then was it given to me by the Venerable, or by the Tiandao Alliance?"
"Lin Yao, you are very transparent." Her previous temptation was to incorporate Zhan Changfeng into the Tiandao League and become a subsidiary of the Tiandao League, but even though there were huge benefits ahead, she still gave up, which was surprising. Yaohua was willing to help her again, "Now I'll give you a chance to help you answer a question. What do you want to ask?"
Zhan Changfeng didn't need to think too much and asked, "The Immortal Way, the Tiandao Alliance, and perhaps more faceless forces, what do they see in the Shanhai Realm, and what does it have to do with me?"
Facing Jiehua's probing gaze, Zhan Changfeng said, "Your gift is extremely unusual. The Jiangshan Sheji Map is a sacred national treasure. How could you give it to me for nothing? If you insist on explaining it, there are only two reasons. , Tiandao Alliance wants to support me as its spokesperson to the outside world, or there is something fishy about this picture, and your previous words confirm the latter."
"As usual, only the power of a quasi-sage can refine an innate holy treasure for one's own use. The other monks were holding it like a golden bowl that could be used but was not branded with their own names. It was swaggering through the market and was snatched away. There is nowhere to complain.
My current strength and value are not qualified to be gifted this thing. Even if it is to help Emperor Yongye reincarnate, I can find another more powerful prince and emperor. If I can't find this newcomer, I can only speculate that I There is some unexpected value in it that I haven’t discovered yet, such as..."
Zhan Changfeng thought for a moment and said, "For example, it disrupted someone's layout in the wasteland."
Yaohua shook his head, "They already have a very high opinion of you, but in my opinion, they still underestimate you."
"Actually, we can't talk about the layout. The word 'maybe' is more appropriate this time."
"Appreciate further details."
"This 'possibility' has been broken. It's okay to tell you. You can just think of it as a story." Yuhua said, "For ninety thousand years, all the quasi-sages have wanted to introduce another co-lord to rule the nine heavens, but just Just like the Demon Court and the Heavenly Court back then, everyone had their own insistence and support, and could not agree on a unified opinion."
"Especially for the princes and emperors of Shinto, no matter how high the candidate's cultivation and moral character are, they will not respect someone other than Shinto as their co-master."
Zhan Changfeng nodded and affirmed, "As it should be, Shinto is the way to rule. If this way is subordinated to others, there is no need for it to exist."
"You can't take it for granted." Yaohua revealed a secret without warning, "The early quasi-sages had a premonition that Shinto would flourish and become the source of the Nine Heavens Conquest. In order to promote the final ideal result, each The Taoists all sent their disciples to practice the Shinto way, so until now, at least half of the princes and emperors are on the side of the Holy Land."
"At the same time, in order to achieve the balance of the Six Holy Lands, they calculated a future that best met the expectations of all parties, and carefully protected this future to make it become a reality bit by bit."
She sighed, "During the Battle of the Second Court, God Yuhao fell, but the true spirit was not destroyed. It was just broken into several pieces and scattered in all walks of life. The Six Holy Lands decided to lead the fragments into the Tao in turn, and experienced demons, Buddhas, immortals, and humans. .The six paths of demons and ghosts comprehend all the laws of the world, and finally enter the divine path and become the Godless King."
Zhan Changfeng was dumbfounded. The situation in the Six Holy Lands turned out to be like this. In this way, the new God received the grace of teaching the law from the Six Paths, and some of his merits in governing the world were given to the Holy Lands.
To put it bluntly, the God who was born in the hands of the Holy Land, even if he reorganizes the heaven, is still a disciple under the Six Holy Lands. He has no control over the affairs of the Holy Land, let alone the true restraint of the quasi-sages in the heavens.
What is the difference between this new God and the Yuhao God who was canonized by the founder of the three religions?
"This game was wonderful, so why can't it work now?"
"Every fragment of the body of God Yuhao has gone through hardships and achieved the path. Only the fragment of the body that joined the immortal path has something wrong. According to his blessings in many lives, after a hundred lives, he should be in the hundredth life. Enter the Immortal Sect, become a Taoist in one fell swoop, and then all the fragments of your body will be in harmony with the Tao. You will be reincarnated once more to practice the Shinto Tao, and you will be able to attain the status of the Imperial Tao."
"But this fragmented body died prematurely for no reason in the 100th life. It took a 101st life, took a wrong path, and suffered the calamity of life and death."
"If this hadn't happened, he would have been born in the wilderness." After Yuhua said so much, he changed his subject, "The quasi-sages who knew about it, including the Ling Emperor, were reviewing his past and looking for where he appeared. He had a deviation, but it turned out that the first deviation was that his master in the hundredth world taught him the wrong way of practice, which caused him to fall into love."
"The second big deviation is that your appearance prevented him from killing the female ghost and turned the calamity of love into a calamity of life and death."
"The third deviation..." She looked unpredictable, "Do you still remember Jiang Chimu in the Shensha Realm and Chi Yuan in the Yunze Realm?"
Zhan Changfeng replied sincerely, "Although we have only met each other a few times, I remember that they are two of the Seven Sons of Stars."
"Your relationship is not that simple." Yuhua said, "You erased his birth."
As if telling a clichéd and clichéd story, Yaohua said, "Jiang Chimu and Chi Yuan were both born in the Immortal Temple. One was a human race and the other was a monster race. At that time, There is a yin and yang lotus with parallel stems in the pool of creation. By chance, the yin lotus entered the body of Chi Yuan, and the yang lotus entered the body of Jiang Chimu. It was destined that there would be a dispute between them."
"In that 'possibility', God Yuhao's final reincarnation was born through them, and the Xuantian Taoist Meeting was the second time they met again after they were separated at birth."
"This reunion started with a battle between the two. During the battle, the reaction of the Yin-Yang Lotus was accidentally aroused, causing the power of the two to become disordered and integrated with each other. They accidentally completed the dual cultivation of vitality, making it difficult to separate the two. ."
"Later, after entanglement and entanglement, they may have developed feelings for each other, and the soul and body merged to give birth to him. However, because the human and demon clans had been at odds for a long time, they were hunted down and fled to the wilderness to hide the child. Later, Jiang Chimu died at the hands of the demon clan, and Chi Yuan was brought back to Yunze."
Zhan Changfeng listened with great interest. She could almost predict how "that man" with the blood of human and demon tribes would conquer the human race and the demon race and bring about harmony between the two races.
"You should have remembered." Yaohua reminded her, "Their first fight was when you stopped them when their power was disordered."
"Then what?" Zhan Changfeng asked.
"Are you still really listening to the story?" Yaohua was speechless, "Then there was no more. In fact, at that time, in order to bring the future back to this desired line, there was a quasi-sage who was preparing to use secret methods to open the body of the Immortal Dao Fragment. Enlightenment, let him attain the Tao immediately, prompt all fragments of the body to unite with the Tao and the fruits, and not miss the opportunity to be reborn."
"Do you want to blame me again?" Zhan Changfeng said coolly, "The world is created by the heart, the environment is changed by the heart, and the fate is created by the heart. The reason why the future is the future is because it has countless possibilities. You cannot just choose one. If there is one possibility, treat other possibilities as scourges, not to mention that even a quasi-sage cannot completely control the direction of the entire future."
"No wonder you said it first, but you did attract the attention of many quasi-sages. The Tiandao League is quite easy-going towards you. They only suggested that I use the power of the holy treasure to make you surrender to the Tiandao League, but I don't want to do that. ."
Yaohua smiled and said, "I have an advantage that no one else can match, and that is to follow the trend of the times. Since you restrained the reincarnation of God Yuhao, I won't think of restraining you. My life is light, and I can't restrain you." rise."
"Okay, if you have heard what I said today, just give it up and don't mention it to anyone again. The Tiandao Alliance will not do or say anything more."
She handed over the map of the country and the country, "It is my personal income, and I give it to you. The biggest reason is that your reincarnation route overlaps with that of God Yuhao to some extent. Maybe you will be an important figure in the future, so make good friends in advance." That’s all, you accept it or not, I won’t force you.”
"Thank you for your honesty, Your Majesty, but after Your Majesty said this, I can't accept it anymore."
Yaohua was confused, "Why is this? Why don't you want it?"
"After listening to His Majesty's explanation, I think I will be in a lot of trouble in the future. Maybe I won't live long enough to use this sacred treasure, and then I will live up to His Majesty's favor."
Zhan Changfeng's expression was light and he smiled a little, "Your Majesty, why don't you make an agreement with me? If I have the opportunity to create a dynasty and become an emperor, how about you give it to me as a gift?"
Yao Hua stared at her for a long time, then relaxed her lips and said, "Okay, I hope that day comes soon."
"Do you still need me to stay to deal with the return to void?"
"If you are free, Your Majesty, why not stay in the wilderness for a while."
Zhan Changfeng chatted with Jiehua for a few more words and watched her disappear.
What if a “future” that has been cherished for so long does not come true?
Some people will accept the facts and make other plans, while others will look for remedies everywhere in an attempt to "save" the situation.
If the latter existed, she might have become a heretic.
Zhan Changfeng rubbed the moon god on his finger bones and sighed softly. The country has not yet been established, and a lot of troubles will come first, but...
This is also more interesting, let's see which line the future will follow.
