"I just started to investigate Nan Yi's details, and I discovered that there is an unending connection between him and me." Kong Qian spread his hands, showing helplessness.
The eternal cause and effect is also the eternal karma.
The two have this cause and effect, and when they fight each other, they are equivalent to inflicting critical strikes on each other.
However, due to fate, it generally does not allow one party to make a surprise attack without the other party being completely aware of it. Instead, it will allow both parties to notice the other party in advance under the circumstances.
For example, this time Kong Qian just took Lin Ye's order and wanted to find out Nan Yi's details, but he was shocked to find a strange pear-shaped mark on the back of Nan Yi's left hand, which made his heart skip a beat. related to him.
Kong Qian made some calculations and found out that the spirit realm that Nan Yi escaped into to avoid being arrested by the Wu'an Supervisor after he killed Du Yuanfu in Nantian City was actually the spirit realm of a fruit farmer who died of anger in Nantian City.
When Kong Qian was young, his family was destroyed and he begged for a living.
Although he later seized the opportunity to become a monk, he was already accustomed to wearing tattered robes and had a habit of begging.
In September of the ninth year of Zhengde, Kong Qian went to Nantian City to pick up goods from the Zhao family. When passing by the market, he saw a fruit farmer selling very sweet pears.
As a result, the fruit farmer refused to give Kong Qian even a pear to eat for free. Kong Qian disliked the stinginess of the fruit farmer, so he secretly used a trick to scatter the farmer's entire cart of pears to the onlookers to eat.
Kong Qian said very proudly that he was teaching saintly virtues and wanted to teach the fruit farmers how to be charitable, and then he just patted his butt and left.
Kong Qian didn't think what he did was wrong.
He is a dignified monk who is willing to enlighten mortals and personally explain to a mortal the principle of being kind and charitable. This is a great blessing for the pear seller.
Unexpectedly, the fruit farmer was not only ungrateful, but also narrow-minded. After he left, he was so angry that he refused to say anything.
However, Nan Yi entered the realm of the fruit farmer's spirit and actually signed a strange contract with the fruit farmer's spirit, intending to form an everlasting relationship with him.
Such an unwise move is really beyond the pale.
After Kong Qian figured out the ins and outs of the strange agreement, he sneered.
However, there is a strange agreement between the two of them that will never end until Kong Qian notices that Nan Yi has an unresolved relationship with him. Even if Kong Qian does not continue to pursue Nan Yi's details, Nan Yi will probably inadvertently find out. Aware of Kong Qian's presence.
Therefore, Kong Qian told the other people in Huagui Pavilion that even if they no longer investigate Nan Yi's details, they may not have other involvements with Nan Yi.
Kong Qian continued: "The death of the Zhao family in the original Chu County had little to do with Nan Yi. But the death of the Yuan family in Qi County, nine out of ten times, was at the hands of the monkey demon of the Nine-in-Chief Taoist."
"And I traced Nan Yi's experience on Yingzhou Island and discovered that when he signed the "Yingzhou Peace Treaty" with Du Heng, the negotiator on the South China Sea demon side was actually Jiuzhi Taoist, now also known as Sun Jiuzhi."
"Although Sun Jiuzhi is far away in Nanhai, he is no longer in Qi County or Dali. But since Nan Yi has been in contact with Sun Jiuzhi, and he has an undying relationship with me, he may notice us sooner or later. "
"In my opinion, it is better for us to strike first and try to kill Nan Yi to eliminate future troubles in advance."
Kong Qianyi suggested eloquently.
He and Nan Yi have an undying relationship, so naturally he hopes to use the power of Huagui Pavilion to catch Nan Yi off guard as early as possible.
However, when the red-haired female cultivator Mingluan heard this, she immediately sneered: "You want to strike first? Can you try to forcefully kill a mortal cultivator in Li Jing City?"
"As far as I know, Nan Yi is blessed with great luck. Not only did he use the effect of "Forbidden Laws" to kill the foundation-building demon cultivator of the Eternal Bright Fire Sect, he also once suddenly attacked and killed the foundation-building demon cultivator. Down, he actually escaped with his life, safe and sound. "
"And at that time, Nan Yi was just cultivating his Qi and cultivating his abilities. Now that he has transformed into a small person, he has returned from Yingzhou Island. I don't know how many benefits he has gained in the South China Sea."
"Kong Laoer, do you think you can kill Nan Yi by force with a surprise attack?"
Except for Zhongli Xin and Munan Junyue in Huagui Pavilion and Qisu, since they are mutually beneficial, there is naturally no relationship between them.
As for Mingluan and Kong Qian, they didn't get along very well and looked at each other with disgust. Although they don't go to the extent of secretly committing evil acts, they often laugh at each other at gatherings and speak sarcastically.
Seeing that Kong Qian wanted to encourage others to help him deal with Nan Yi, Ming Luan immediately spoke without any politeness.
Nan Yi has an eternal relationship with Kong Qian, but not with Huagui Pavilion.
The two are completely different things and cannot be confused.
Kong Qian has his own selfish motives, is alarmist, and wants to encourage others to join him in taking advantage of others.
But the other six people are not fools. Even if they don't refute directly like Mingluan, they still have a clear conscience.
Unless Nan Yi has indeed noticed the existence of Huagui Pavilion and is eyeing Huagui Pavilion, it will only be a personal grudge between Nan Yi and Kong Qian for the time being.
Pavilion Master Nan Junyue said: "The most urgent task now is to promote the "selection of concubines" project as soon as possible. "
"During this period, try not to get too involved with Nan Yi. After all, if Zhongli can enter the palace and become Emperor Li's favorite concubine, he can guide Emperor Li to promulgate policies and urge newborns everywhere to register their births in a timely manner, and we can collect the baby elixir materials , which is a huge benefit.”
After thirty years of stockpiling, the progress of painting the Ten Thousand Infants Elixir for Qisu in Gui Pavilion has reached more than 8,000, while the slow progress has only been 6,7,000.
Among them, the one who has made the fastest progress is the Pavilion Master Nan Junyue.
Nan Junyue himself is not in a hurry. At worst, he will be able to collect the materials for his own Ten Thousand Infants Spiritual Pill in another six or seven years.
But Nan Junyue is not in a hurry, but others are.
Among the seven, only Nan Junyue is good at refining elixirs. The Pure Yang and Pure Yin pills have always been refined by Nan Junyue.
If Nan Junyue was the first to refine the Ten Thousand Infants Elixir and take it to reach the top level of the Xuan Rank, even if it was difficult for him to kill other people to keep the secret due to the Taoist oath, he would definitely not have the leisure and grace to refine elixirs for others.
Although others know the elixir recipe and the refining method, they are not good at refining elixirs and dare not do it themselves for fear of wasting the elixir materials they have worked so hard to save.
Therefore, the best way is to speed up the collection of elixir materials as soon as possible so that Nan Junyue can refine all the Ten Thousand Infants Elixir in a short time without having to wait too long.
But it’s really hard to get up to collecting the elixir materials.
On the one hand, what they do cannot be brought to the forefront after all. Even if there are some aristocratic families colluding in various counties, they will not collect elixir materials in a big way.
On the other hand, the various life-blood elixirs required by aristocratic families can be children under nine years old; while the ten thousand infant elixirs required for painting the Gui Pavilion must be newborn babies under one year old.
Then, in order to prevent their children from dying prematurely, people in Dali do not register their children's household name tags, birth dates, etc. in time.
It would be easy if we just collected newborn babies to refine the Purple River Cart and so on.
But it’s really hard to collect newborn babies with specific birth dates.
After much thought, Huaguige Qisu simply came up with a way. He started with the Ministry of Rites and promoted the proposal to ask Emperor Li to choose his concubine as soon as possible, and then let the naturally charming Zhongli sneak into the palace and become Emperor Li's favorite concubine.
Then, Zhongli blew the wind into Emperor Li’s ears and guided Emperor Li to promulgate policies. In the name of ensuring that local household accounts are updated in a timely manner, once a newborn is born, he will not only be able to register for free with a household name tag, but also receive childcare benefits. subsidy.
As long as the official accounts and files of newborns from various places are available, it will be easier to target the Qisu of the Gui Pavilion and the families he colludes with.
As for Emperor Li, he has no heirs, not even concubines.
Both the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the elders of the royal family were eager to see Emperor Li marry a concubine and give birth to a prince as soon as possible.
It's just that Emperor Li didn't want to be a powerless king. In the early years, he was very sensitive to proposals to persuade him to take concubines and have children as soon as possible, and flatly rejected them all.
However, today is different from the past. Emperor Li has now established a firm foothold and is no longer regarded as a powerless king. The suggestion of choosing a concubine is also expected to be accepted by Emperor Li.
At this moment, Huagui Pavilion wanted to start with the Ministry of Rites and cooperate with other departments to promote this proposal as soon as possible.
Nan Junyue didn't want to cause trouble, so she asked Kong Qian to avoid Nan Yi as much as possible in recent days and not to get involved with Nan Yi.
Seeing the pavilion master Nan Junyue bring up the important matter of "selecting a concubine", Kong Qian responded with a smile but not a smile: "I know what the pavilion master said. It was found that Nan Yi had fought with Sun Jiuzhi on Yingzhou Island. After making contact, Pindao stopped in time and did not continue to trace the latest details of Nan Yi after returning to Dali from Yingzhou Island."
After hearing this, several other people were slightly suspicious of Kong Qian's attitude.
However, there is no master-slave relationship in Huagui Pavilion Qisu. Even if Kong Qian does not use the name of Huagui Pavilion to trace Nan Yi's details later, but secretly follows Nan Yi in his own name, others cannot say much.
Seeing that the scene seemed to be about to end, Zhongli, who was dressed in Tsing Yi and wanted to enter the palace as a concubine, smiled and talked about the progress of her recent activities with the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette.
The topic of discussion in Huagui Pavilion then turned to how to promote the "selection of concubines" as soon as possible.
They didn't pay much attention to Nan Yi for the time being.
As long as Kong Qian deliberately avoids Nan Yi, even if it is fate, the two will eventually get along at some point.
But it’s not like a relationship will arise within a few days.
During this period, they were naturally more concerned about the advancement of the "concubine selection" issue.
…………
However, when Huagui Pavilion Qisu was thinking about how to get Lihuang to accept the matter of choosing a concubine as soon as possible, in the Lihuang Imperial Study Room, Lihuang, who was not a monk, finally received the news of Lin Ye's death.
"Lin Ye is dead?"
Li Huang was a little surprised. Although he is a mortal, he does not know anything about the world of cultivation.
With the suppression of the Dragon Qi Law, a Qi-nurturing cultivator could easily be assassinated to death if he was not careful. However, even if a mortal monk is suddenly attacked and killed, as long as he is not surrounded and killed by many people, he will not die easily.
As a result, Lin Ye not only died with one move, but also died at the hands of a Zhenqi warrior?
Does Zhenqi Martial Arts have such potential? Or is it that on the surface it was a warrior who took action, but in reality it was Nan Yi who made a zhenqi warrior willingly blow himself up to kill Lin Ye?
Without efficient communication of spiritual consciousness, Lihuang didn't know the specific circumstances of Lin Ye's death based only on the information he received.
However, he guessed based on common sense that if he wanted to forcefully kill the mortal monks in Lijing City, only a method similar to self-destruction would be able to exchange one life for another.
Emperor Li thought of Zhenqi martial arts again, and murmured in his heart: "The Zhenqi of immortality will determine whether you can live forever."
Li Huang is the Nine-Five Supreme. Imperial power, wealth and honor can all be regarded with indifference in his eyes.
Only the word "immortality" was something Li Huang couldn't get, so he wanted to get it more and more.
Although Emperor Li was granted the martial arts skills of Nan Yi and could now practice immortality energy, he was not satisfied.
At least he had to become a source warrior and obtain a semi-independent true energy lineage before Emperor Li would find it acceptable.
Because the pure immortality energy, which is not the master of the Dharma lineage, can at most extend the life of Emperor Li.
However, if you don't live forever, even if you live for more than ten years, your life will be in vain.
Emperor Li's eyes were deep and he thought to himself: I have forty-five years of imperial fortune. If I don't become a monk and just cultivate the Qi of Immortality, what's the use of being an emperor for fifteen more years?
Thinking of this, Li Huang closed his eyes and fell asleep, making up his mind.
He opened his eyes again and thought about the current situation:
Lin Ye died in Lijing City and could not go to Qijun; and if Lin Ye did not go to Qijun, he would probably not look for other candidates to collude with him if he painted the Gui Pavilion for a while.
Affected by this, Huagui Pavilion will definitely become more urgent about the proposal of selecting a concubine.
Lihuang originally wanted to grind it out a little more, but it was actually Huagui Pavilion's proposal to choose a concubine behind the scenes. It is not to say that Huagui Pavilion's plan was too smooth.
However, Lin Ye's death was so sudden that it unknowingly stirred up the situation in the capital, causing the development of some things to gradually escape Li Huang's control.
And all of this stems from the fact that Nan Yi's existence is like a variable, affecting the whole body and constantly causing greater impact.
Li Huang raised his hand and lowered his eyes to look at the palm print of his right palm:
"Nanyi, I have staked my fortune for forty-five years. I hope that your martial arts will not disappoint others. I also hope that you will not be too ignorant."
At this moment, Emperor Li's eyes were indifferent, as if a god in the sky was looking down at the ants on earth, even more indifferent than many monks.
…………
Mingwen Division.
Nan Yi easily obtained the authorization to publish "The Legend of Two Dragons in the Great Li" without any problems.
However, Jiang Jie, the director of the Mingwen Department, did not ask Lin Ye in a roundabout way how to kill Nan Yi, but suddenly said: "Do you have any clues about junior brother's new book?"
Nan Yi nodded and said: "We are polishing the first draft and preparing to publish it directly as a book."
Regarding the new book, Nan Yi does not plan to continue publishing it in Ming Pao this time.
If it were only published in one county, the daily "Ming Pao" would be able to cope with it.
But now that we have arrived in the capital, Nan Yi wants to go to the counties of Dali to promote it first. It is best to change it to the form of books and periodicals to facilitate sales far away.
Jiang Jie asked: "Junior brother, after all, it is adapted based on history. In the new book, is the portrayal of the Mongolian Yuan army in the northern Kan Dynasty good? If it is to be sold to the Kan Dynasty, junior brother thinks to himself, is it okay?"
"Oh?" Nan Yi became interested after hearing this, "There shouldn't be any problem. The new book does not maliciously belittle the Kan Dynasty. There is even a female protagonist who was born in the Kan Dynasty."
As for the idea of adapting "The Legend of Heaven and Sword of the Dragon", Nan Yi wrote it based on strengthening the power of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. From another perspective, it can actually be regarded as "The Jianghu of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty".
Nan Yi thought to himself that even if it was sold to the Kan Dynasty in the north, even if it was tepid at first, it would not provoke resistance from the Kan Dynasty.
Jiang Jie smiled and said: "That's just right. Recently, an envoy from Kan Dynasty came to Dali and is currently entangled with the Department of Foreign Affairs. If junior brother is interested in the Kan Dynasty market, I can try to contact one or two here and make an appointment to meet. .”
Nan Yi raised his brows slightly, cupped his hands and said, "In this case, I'll be able to help you, senior brother."
