Suppose a person plays with your Taoist heart and manipulates your life like a puppet on strings, every step and every choice.
Life after life, we have been reduced to existences like chess pieces on a chessboard, moving forward according to the original destiny path, which makes you incomplete when you are perfect, makes you miserable when you are happy, and makes your wife and children separated when your family is perfect.
Breaking through the opportunities to be ordinary and become mediocre again and again, forcing you to embark on a path that defies fate, overcoming thorns and thorns, bleeding endlessly, struggling for endless years, and being covered with bruises.
In the end, in the tempering of ice and fire, in the suffering and hardship, you took one step forward, transcended, and saw all the truth.
At this time, the big man behind the scenes comes out and says to you sincerely: "Everything I do is for your own good."
There is suffering on one side and kindness on the other.
How should you choose? !
When you become an elder in the future, you will also use the same means to hone your younger generations.
Everything is for enlightenment, and enlightenment is for everything.
The dragon slayer will eventually become the evil dragon.
In response, Yang Jian cursed: "Go to Te Niang... Golden Emperor Shen Gongbao!"
Perhaps, in the future, the Daoji Hongjun Tianzun and the Chongying Huimin Emperor will behave like this, and they will become the aloof, indifferent and ruthless God, or they will become bored and the ultimate fun-loving person.
However, the current Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun will never compromise, and his heat is still warm!
Even if he couldn't achieve enlightenment in this era and couldn't reach Daluo in this era, he would also catch the Golden Emperor Shen Gongbao and beat him up severely!
As for the consequences and what the impulse is, Yang Jian doesn't care.
Are you still young if you are not impulsive? ! Not young and energetic, are you still a young man? !
In response, Shen Gongbao expressed his innocence and helplessness, and protested over the years: "Putting aside the facts, even if I have 99% of the responsibility, doesn't the Twelve Immortals of Yuxu not have 1% of the responsibility? ?!"
"They are the planners, I am just the executor. I don't care about public crimes, I don't care about public crimes!!!"
It’s like the shouts and cries of the sun, resounding through the past, future, and present, making those who hear it sad and those who hear it shed tears.
In this regard, the Twelve Immortals of Yuxu said that their intentions were good, but the monks below recited the sutra incorrectly, and there were problems in the execution process, which led to a series of problems.
What? If you want evidence, come up with literal documents and procedures!
There is no signature or seal, how can you say that Pindao participated!
"Senior Brother Yuding, come out, Master Yuding, come out, you have the ability to do it, you have the ability to open the door!"
Shen Gongbao rode a strange beast and ran to the foot of Yuquan Mountain to cry out for injustice. His voice was like a cuckoo weeping blood.
However, the door of Jinxia Cave in Yuquan Mountain is tightly closed, and there are two lines of couplets hanging on it - close the door tightly and recite the three volumes of Huang Ting quietly; throw yourself into the Western Land, and there are celebrities on the list of gods.
Shen Gongbao was so angry that he yelled and cursed for a long time, but no boy came out of the Jinxia Cave. He could only let out a long sigh and rode a strange beast to wander around the three mountains and five mountains, looking for the blessed land of the cave.
Flying all the way, I passed by Guangchengzi, Chi Jingjing, Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun, Puxian Zhenren, Cihang Taoist, Qingxu Daodezhenjun, Lingbao Master, Daoxing Daxing, Wei Liusun...all the immortals In all caves, the doors are tightly closed and cannot be opened when shouting.
On the door of the cave, there are two couplets written: Yuanman takes refuge and follows the right path, calmly and reciting Huang Ting.
Shen Gongbao felt that there was no place in the vast world, and he said aggrievedly: "When we were planning the layout together, we called him Junior Brother Shen, but now we are all rejected."
"I'm the one who takes all the blame."
At this thought, Shen Gongbao regretted it. He had made the biggest mistake by not leaving written evidence.
"My lord, don't be anxious." The strange beast sitting down spoke human words and comforted: "There is no place for us in Kunlun Mountain. How about we go and join our old friends?"
"Old friend?"
Shen Gongbao thought about it and remembered King Yuqing's warning that Kunlun Mountain was not a place to stay for a long time. A three-pointed two-edged sword might fly from the sky one day, so it was better to go to Jiejiao for a walk.
In the past, when he had not yet attained enlightenment, he was the eldest son of Duke Shen of the Shang Dynasty. Because he hated the blood sacrifices of ghosts and gods, he traveled around the world in search of famous mountains and rivers. Fortunately, he was guided by Empress Shiji and entered the path of immortality.
Now, even though he has the magic power of the Earth Immortal, the body of the Heavenly Immortal, and the realm of the Golden Immortal, he has finally achieved the right result, so he might as well go visit his old friends.
Furthermore, Juan Bao was a pet mount given to him by fellow Taoist Shiji when he went up the mountain. It was also a kind of friendship. It was time to go and visit the old master.
"Forget it, let's go to the Bone Cave in Skull Mountain."
Shen Gongbao slapped the alien beast under his seat, and immediately turned into a stream of silver. Faster than that time, it flew through billions of sacred mountains in the wild, breaking through layers of space. With the help of the teleportation arrays set up in various places, it flew slowly for two or three years, and finally Came to the edge of the East China Sea.
After wandering around the East China Sea, following the route in my memory, I asked the mountain gods, searched for land, and flew for half a day. I finally saw a majestic sacred mountain. Looking from a distance, I saw white bones in the mountain and evil winds.
Shen Gongbao was slightly startled and couldn't help but secretly thought that the last time he came, the Skeleton Mountain was eerie and terrifying, resembling bones, but after all, it was a symbol of life and death, a link in nature, and gave it a sense of annihilation similar to the Buddhist White Bones Temple.
Nowadays, it is full of boundless gloom and weirdness, as if it is the entrance to hell, which makes people shudder.
The cold wind blew by, emitting waves of low whimpering sounds, like the cries of the dead, and countless lonely ghosts wailing, making people's bones numb.
"That's good, that's good."
Shen Gongbao announced, got off his mount, and walked up Skull Mountain. As he walked, he recited the Ksitigarbha Sutra to save the souls of the dead and wash away evil spirits.
"Ouch!"
Juan Bao also roared, transformed into the size of a raccoon cat, flapping its two little wings, it was really cute, sat on Shen Gongbao's shoulder, and recited Taiyi's scripture on rescuing suffering in a learned manner.
Ksitigarbha and Taiyi, the two fundamental methods of rescuing suffering, serve the small skull mountain. The lonely ghosts, wronged souls and evil spirits on this mountain can have less blessings.
Don't say that a thousand-year-old ghost, even a ten-thousand-year-old ghost king, or an enlightened ghost and immortal, will obediently undergo reincarnation under the double illumination of Buddha's light and fairy light.
"Who? Let's go wild on my Skeleton Mountain!"
Just when Shen Gongbao was taking another step forward and preparing to save all the undead souls in Skull Mountain, the huge movement finally alerted the local monks.
I saw a pink and snow-white little boy with sideburns, carrying a flower basket, coming in the wind, with a heroic spirit between his brows and eyes, and shouted: "Where is the monster, so arrogant in my Skull Mountain?"
"Biyun, do you still recognize me?"
Shen Gongbao laughed loudly, put away his magical power, and stepped forward.
Biyun boy was slightly startled, lowered his gaze, looked intently, and said with great joy: "Uncle Shen Gongbao, why are you here? Could it be that you were kicked out by Kunlun Mountain?"
"It's okay. They don't want you in the teaching, but we want you in the teaching."
Shen Gongbao's expression darkened, he knocked Biyun Boy on the head, and cursed: "You kid can't speak, so don't speak. Sooner or later you will die with this mouth."
Biyun boy covered his head and said aggrievedly: "Well, uncle, didn't you tell me that you are a member of the Jiao Cult when you are born, you are a soul of the Jie Cult when you die, and you must die together with your empress."
Shen Gongbao recalled the black history of flattering Empress Shiji in Skull Mountain in order to cultivate immortality. He couldn't help feeling embarrassed, coughed, and changed the topic: "Biyun, why is Skull Mountain so chaotic now?"
In the past, Skull Mountain, although dead and silent, was extremely pure. There was only one kind of pure yin power, and it was one of the treasured places for cultivation.
Today's Skull Mountain is full of miscellaneous vitality. To say that the devil's path is there is just flattering, and it's basically a heresy.
"It's a long story."
When Biyun boy mentioned this, he was filled with righteous indignation and said: "It's all the fault of that Qi Immortal Ma Yuan. For the sake of friendship, the empress gave him a place, but she didn't expect that he was not clean at all and threw things away after eating. "
"Several groups of righteous immortals have already come to the door. I just thought someone was causing trouble again, but I didn't expect you, Uncle Shen, would come to clean up."
"One Qi Immortal Ma Yuan?"
Shen Gongbao looked calm and said leisurely: "It turns out to be him. No wonder Skull Mountain is dirty and messy."
Chan's teachings are strict in recruiting disciples. They either have deep skills, have outstanding talents, or have superhuman moral character. In short, the entry standards are very high.
The conditions for accepting disciples from Jiejiao are completely opposite to those from Chanjiao. It is not just talk about teaching without distinction, but the leader of Tongtian Cult really does this.
Those who have listened to the leader's sermons are disciples of Jie Jiao, and those who have learned Jie Jiao's magic are Jie Jiao's disciples. Even if they are registered disciples of Jie Jiao, they are still Jie Jiao's disciples. It can be described as a mixed bag.
There are great supernatural beings like Taoist Duobao and the Golden Spirit Mother, there are also temperamental immortals like Zhao Gongming and Sanxiao, and there are also heretics like the Qi Immortal Ma Yuan.
Empress Shiji was transformed into a sacred stone from the bones of the Bone Cave in Skull Mountain. She was born and raised on earth and has a cold personality. In her eyes, the skull and bones, the world of mortals, and the heaven and earth are all the same.
For a stone, there is no difference between being with a skeleton and being with flowers and green grass. It is a real pink skull.
It was this kind of indifference that allowed Shen Gongbao, a mortal, to make friends with Empress Shiji.
It is precisely this indifferent mentality that allows Ma Yuan, the poacher, to stay in the Bone Cave in Skull Mountain.
After all, in Shitou's eyes, there seems to be no difference between eating humans and eating fish, and all living beings are equal.
Shen Gongbao asked Biyun Boy, "Does Ma Yuan have any friends in Jiejiao?"
"No." Biyun boy said contemptuously: "It is said that he was kicked out by overseas immortals for cannibalism and lived here. The empress gave him a place because she saw him as pitiful."
Shen Gongbao nodded thoughtfully.
With Ma Yuan's bad character, even in the Jiejiao where there is a mixture of good and bad people, he is not welcome. Firstly, the immortal family is pure and does not like to eat blood. Secondly, many immortals in the Jiejiao are also human beings. By birth, he was a serious human immortal.
In this way, it won't be too much trouble to clean up, and it won't attract a lot of fellow disciples.
"Empress Shiji doesn't care, but I do."
Shen Gongbao smiled and said: "Shi Ji is unwilling to take action for the sake of friendship with the same disciple. I am from a Chan teaching background, but I don't have such worries."
"Biyun, take me to see Empress Shiji."
Biyun boy was overjoyed and led the way. Soon he arrived outside a Taoist cave. Although it was not decorated with fairy flowers and the spiritual roots were swaying, it still had some ancient charm.
"Still so shabby."
Shen Gongbao shook his head as a witness, took off his Qiankun bag, handed it to Biyun Boy, and said: "Fellow Taoist Shiji doesn't care. As a good friend, you can't just sit idly by. You can use these things to decorate."
Biyun boy cried with joy and couldn't help shouting: "Caiyun, come out quickly, Master Shen is back!"
"What, the rich man is back!"
In a moment, a girl who was beginning to look beautiful ran out in a hurry, looked at Shen Gongbao, knelt down with a plop, hugged his thigh, and wailed bitterly: "Uncle Master, you are finally back!"
"You don't know what kind of life we have lived in these years without you."
High emotional intelligence: the ancient charm of the White Bone Cave in Skull Mountain.
Low emotional intelligence: The Bone Cave in Skull Mountain is extremely simple.
Empress Shiji has a firm heart and looks down on everything, so she can endure this loneliness. However, when the two boys are in love with each other, it is the time when their playfulness becomes more intense.
Before Shen Gongbao came, he could barely live a hard life, but after Shen Gongbao came, he couldn't live a little better.
I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light.
Shen Gongbao smiled slightly, helped Caiyun boy up, handed her a token, and told her, "If it's not enough, go to the human city to get Shen Guogong's token and ask the Shen Family Commercial Bank for a loan."
As a mortal, Shen Gongbao was able to establish a good relationship with Empress Shiji and her disciples in the Bone Cave of Skull Mountain. In addition to his handsome appearance, excellent eloquence, and outstanding talent, Shen Gongbao also had a few points of comparison with others.
"You guys go do your thing."
Shen Gongbao waved his hand and sent the two boys away, and then he walked around the Skeleton Mountain and the Bone Cave on his own.
Quiet room, not here.
Dressing room, not there.
"Oh...that's in the lotus pond."
As if he were visiting his own home, Shen Gongbao detoured through several twisting roads and came to a pool according to his memory. Sure enough, there was a figure as beautiful as a red fire red lotus, meditating beside the pool. The moonlight fell from the sky and scattered in his hair. Bun.
Her beautiful face was tinged with a cold color due to the moonlight.
"Shi Ji, long time no see, did you miss me?"
Shen Gongbao laughed, waved carelessly, and said hello.
"You bastard, how dare you come back!"
Empress Shi Ji's heart trembled, she opened her eyes and looked at the incoming man. After a moment of silence, she suddenly became furious and came to kill him wearing a red bagua robe, a hemp silk ribbon, and a Tai'a sword in hand.
"Juan Bao, save me!"
Shen Gongbao had expected it, and quickly dodged, then grabbed the kitten on his shoulder and pushed it up like a shield.
"Ouch, my lord, you betray me!"
Juan Bao struggled and waved his paws, his big eyes were watery, and he shouted in an extremely anxious voice: "Empress, I am my own person, bah, my cat, bah, my dog, bah, bah, bah... Anyway, don't do anything!"
"You...are Juan Bao?"
Empress Shi Ji put away her sword, looked at it with suspicious eyes for a moment, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and smiled like a flower. She was extremely beautiful. She took the kitten, rubbed it vigorously, sucked it in, and said with pity: "So We haven’t seen you for so many years, Juan Bao has changed so much, I almost don’t recognize you anymore.”
"Kitten...have you missed me?"
Juan Bao looked at Shen Gongbao with pleading eyes. Shen Gongbao coughed, pretended not to see him, and walked out.
