Have a peaceful night.
After leaving the inn, Yu Li turned around and found a statue of the mythical beast Suan Ni guarding the place. As the five sons of the dragon, the auspicious beast can naturally frighten demons.
Sensing something strange about the statue, Yu Li put his hand on its heart and seeped his spiritual power into it. Under the influence of the Tao Seed of Reincarnation, a sultry shadow like a lion with flaming eyes entered his mind, and it was the face of the queen-sold mother-in-law.
"I see. No wonder you are like this. You must have unintentionally caused this war. Alas, it is a pity that it is the people of Li who suffer in the end."
The short little girl did not dare to get close to the statue, and seemed to be extremely afraid of it.
"Brother Tofu, this lion is so scary. Why aren't you afraid?"
"He is not a lion, oh, it can also be said to be a lion. He is the ancestor of the lion. His name is Suanni, and he is the fifth son of the Dragon of Luck. He likes to be quiet and does not like to move. He likes to sit and watch the fireworks in the world. His good temper is also Being provoked shows that some people have gone too far. Suan Ni has eyes of fire, and the world has weapons."
I don't know what he is talking about, but he seems very powerful. Yu Li also relied on the seeds of reincarnation and the Bodhi Dharmakaya to be extremely sensitive to luck. To put it bluntly, it was a method of using the faith of all living beings. He remembered that when he was in the underworld, Ma Liuye once told him about the various shortcomings of the incense and fire Shinto. The way of luck is not much different. The rise and fall of dynasties depends on the livelihood of all people.
The wishes and powers of all living beings are mixed, some are good and some are evil. Good intentions can reach the nine consciousnesses, but evil thoughts can confuse people's minds, which cannot be tolerated by the human emperor's fate. If one is born into an emperor's family and only covets power but does not implement benevolent governance, and may even bring disaster to the people, this is what Confucian classics call moral mismatch. Those who have high status but weak virtues, small wisdom but big plans, heavy responsibilities but small strength will surely suffer disaster.
While walking and stopping along the way, Yu Li showed no mercy to monsters with big karma. He would also let them go if they had little or no karma. In just a few days, he has grown into a competent demon-conquering monk.
Three days later, the two finally arrived at Licheng, the capital of this country. The reincarnation Taoist reminder reminded him to open his Dharma Eyes to check, and he saw that Licheng was shrouded in black blood and light. The dragon of luck that originally guarded the dynasty had shrunk to the extreme, and no trace of golden light could be seen.
The real source of evil is hidden in the royal family. It is unknown what outrageous things were done in the palace, and the fate of a country was buried with it.
After paying the fee and entering the city, Yu Li took the little girl and went straight to the palace. The Demon-Conquering Monk was still very powerful in the country. Even though he had a grudge with Prince Ning's Mansion, the guards still informed him of Yu Li's arrival.
"Jieli, why are you here?"
After Yu had been away for a year, the person who came to pick him up was actually his cheap master, and he immediately felt more cordial.
"Master, I have passed the examination in the temple and become an independent walking demon-conquering monk. I know that the master is in Licheng, so I came to see what happened to you and why you haven't been able to go back for several months. The person next to me should be someone This lord’s spiritual pet came with me to find someone.”
The old monk opened his Dharma eyes and saw that the little girl was really upright and peaceful, so he believed what he said.
"Well, not bad. It seems that you have really realized it in the past few months. As for what's going on here, it's hard to explain in words. This is not the place to talk. Come in with me."
Yu Li nodded and followed the old monk into a side hall with the little girl. Sitting inside were several great Zen masters from Fayin Temple, all of whom were well-known and virtuous people here.
After greeting the elders one by one, they received praise from everyone. The old monk then talked about the reason for this.
It turns out that the current emperor was indeed diligent and caring for the people when he came to the throne, and he also made some achievements. Twenty years ago, after the emperor chose his concubine, he seemed to be a different person. He over-indulged in his new love, Concubine Zheng, and gradually began to lose interest in government affairs. Not only did he depose his married wife, Queen Zhou, but he also allowed Concubine Zheng to murder the prince ten years ago.
Queen Zhou was a famous medical sage in the country, and she rushed back eager to save her son. After discovering that Concubine Zheng had absorbed dragon energy and practiced cultivation, she told the emperor that if she didn't stop it, the country would be destroyed and the family would be destroyed. Little did they know that all this was Concubine Zheng's conspiracy. The palace had long been under Concubine Zheng's control, and Queen Zhou was cut into a human pig and imprisoned in the altar to death.
"Master, so the palace is very dangerous now. Are you under house arrest here?"
"It can't be said to be under house arrest. Now it can only be said to be evenly matched. The royal ancestor has been poisoned by the emperor for many years and has been seriously injured. That's why he invited me and others to come to help, as well as a group of Taoist friends from Xianling Temple."
"Then have you found out who Concubine Zheng is? If you don't know the details, this matter will be even more difficult to handle."
"I heard that she is a woman from the Qingqiu clan. Her surname is Zheng. She is not from a royal clan, but she is also from a large clan."
Here I go, it’s a vixen again. Yu Li muttered in his heart that there are not many good people in the Fox Clan in Qingqiu Mountain. That’s not right. Dayu’s wife Tushan was quite good, but history cannot be fully trusted, let alone folklore? As for Dayu's three visits without entering, who knows the specific reasons. Just listen to some legends.
He remembered very clearly that the Qingqiu Fox Clan were cannibals. In later generations, many big Vs came to whitewash them, but no matter how hard they washed them, they couldn't be cleansed. Especially Daji of the Su family, who single-handedly caused the Shang Dynasty to fall apart. Tianzhu, Huayangtian, and Fusang's Tamamozao are all fox monsters that bring trouble to the world. As for saying yes, in a patriarchal society, women don’t have that much power. Yu Li could only laugh. Not to mention Wu Mei and Ye Heshi, there was Lu Pheasant of the Han Dynasty, Empress Dowager Xuan of the Qin Dynasty, Empress Wei of the Tang Dynasty, Liu E of the Song Dynasty... Which woman was not a powerful woman?
"Master, I took a look when I entered the city. I am afraid that my vitality has reached the end of my life and there is no possibility of rescue."
"Alas, we also know that it may be in vain and may even be life-threatening, but the people in this world are innocent. Amitabha, if I don't go to hell, who will?"
Several other seniors were also prepared to die, and were about to fight to the death with the demon fox.
We had some vegetarian food for dinner, and the great monks had already entered meditation. Yu Li had no intention of practicing, so he got up and went outside the palace. Not knowing what the rules were in the harem, he avoided the guards and entered a garden. He didn't know which royal relative's residence this was. It wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but that he found that he was actually lost. It is estimated that the fight between the two parties obscured the secrets of the world and messed up the feng shui. Yu Li had no choice but to sit in the pavilion and enjoy the night breeze.
"Hehehe, sister, when can these stinky Taoist priests and thieving monks leave? We have been trapped in the palace, and people can't go out to have fun."
"Just wait a few days. I have contacted Prince Ning, and he will soon be... bold, who dares to break into my Weiyang Palace?"
Suddenly I found a monk sitting in the pavilion, and I immediately stopped and asked.
"Young monk, quit. It's a sin. I didn't want to sleep. I came out to relax by the moonlight. I lost my direction for a moment. Please forgive me for wandering into your place by mistake."
"Haha, let me tell you, there are so many guards here, and there are countless formation restrictions, how could we not alert us. It turned out to be a daredevil, but you are lucky, you were not injured. Tell me, how did you do it? To avoid formations and restrictions?"
"This little monk doesn't know." Yu Li really didn't know, and it was probably Tao Zhong's fault again. Ever since he accepted the proposal of God Houtu and practiced the Tao of Reincarnation, Yu Li found that some inexplicable things always happened, which were inseparable from the Tao of Reincarnation.
