The sun is shining and the cicadas are chirping.
Li Dao
The empress in green clothes put away the divine light all over her body, revealing an alluring appearance, with celestial posture and jade bones, and her muscles reflected the glow of the sun. Although she had restrained her magical power, her movements could not hide her fairy aura, which made countless tourists stunned.
Li Daoxuan was a little surprised. He found that the empress seemed to have changed a lot compared to before.
She used to be aloof and aloof from the world, but now, she seems to be more willing to blend in with the world and walk around the world.
The two of them walked and talked.
It was mostly Li Daoxuan who was talking, talking about his experiences during this period, or introducing the various landscapes of Longhu Mountain, while the Queen in Tsing Yi listened quietly, and occasionally said something aloud.
After visiting the scenery of Longhu Mountain, it was already dusk. The two of them stood on the cliff of Xianshui Rock and watched the setting sun enter the mountain.
The man is handsome and has a refined temperament.
The woman looks like a fairy, and her blue clothes are flowing.
Anyone who sees it will say that they are a perfect match for each other.
But in fact, there is always an insurmountable gap between the two.
Li Daoxuan looked at her fluttering black hair, his heart moved, and he blurted out: "My dear, actually I -"
The empress in green turned her hand over, and a remnant soul appeared on it, which was the soul of blind man Lin.
Li Daoxuan's spirit was shaken and he said: "My dear, it turns out you took away his soul?"
The empress in green shook her head and said calmly: "There is a forbidden curse hidden in his soul. If I hadn't happened to be there, he would have really died."
Li Daoxuan's heart trembled. He used his divine eyes to cast a forbidden curse. Who would be willing to pay such a high price just to test himself by using Blind Lin's hand?
"Empress, have you asked clearly who ordered him to come?"
The empress in green put away the remaining soul and said: "I have used the soul-searching technique to read his memory. The person who borrowed his divine eyes was wearing a black robe. His face was ruined and there were many scars on his face."
Li Daoxuan silently wrote down this key information, with scars all over his face.
After a pause, the Queen in Tsing Yi said again: "This person should be practicing some kind of evil magic to cover up the secrets of heaven. Perhaps it is inseparable from the Moro Cult."
Li Daoxuan frowned and said: "It's the Moro Sect again. If we have the chance, we must uproot this demonic sect!"
If Moroism is not eradicated, the world will be in trouble.
The leader, Moro, recruited many masters and had a grand plan. Although he was thwarted by him, Li Daoxuan did not take it lightly, but became more cautious.
The empress in green changed her tone and said: "Let's not care about Moro for now. I have encountered some problems in my practice recently."
Li Dao
The empress in green seemed to know what he was thinking, and said, "Just listen to it."
Li Daoxuan nodded and said, "In that case, I'm all ears."
The empress in green looked at the sunset slowly going down the mountain, with a trace of compassion in her eyes.
"After conquering the underworld, I took over more authority in the underworld and improved my cultivation of the divine way. However, I also saw the suffering of more sentient beings and heard the cries of thousands of ghosts at night."
"It's just that even though I have the power of an immortal, I still can't take care of all the four seas and nine states. The world is so big that more than one immortal can take care of it."
She raised her eyes and looked at Li Daoxuan and said, "You always have many evil ideas, do you have a solution?"
Li Daoxuan looked directly into her eyes and saw the compassion and sympathy for the common people and wandering ghosts deep in her eyes. He couldn't help but be moved by her kindness and sincerity.
As a ghost fairy who has lived for a thousand years, the Empress in Tsing Yi must have seen a lot of the suffering in the world and the ugliness of people's hearts, but even so, she is still loyal and will not change her original intention.
More than 800 years ago, the girl who burned herself to death in order to cure the plague, sacrificing herself to save the people in the city, is still her today.
Others only marveled at the ageless appearance of the Empress in Tsing Yi, but Li Daoxuan lamented that her original intention remained unchanged.
Maybe this is the reason why in the vast world, she is the only one who thrives on the Shinto and has endless faith.
After thinking seriously for a moment, Li Daoxuan spit out two words.
"Become a God!"
Become a god?
The empress in green frowned slightly, these two words should not be said easily.
When King Wu conquered Zhou, Jiang Ziya became a god on behalf of heaven, which brought about the splendor of heaven. The word "god" has the meaning of determining the three realms and redefining the universe. It cannot be accomplished without great opportunity, great perseverance, and great cultivation.
Although the power of the Empress in Tsing Yi is unfathomable, she is still far away from being able to become a god on behalf of heaven.
Li Dao
Li Daoxuan's eyes became particularly bright, and he felt the pride of swallowing up everything.
"It's just like the Emperor of Fengdu and the Lord of Taishan Mansion in the past. Under him are the Ghost Emperors of the Five Directions, Yamas of the Ten Palaces, and the Emperor of Judge City. They can help you rule the underworld, rebuild the underworld, and shape reincarnation!"
"I think the devil boy you sealed before is very good. If you can give more of them, I can help you better."
Li Daoxuan's logic is actually very simple. If you can't do it alone, you should find more helpers. At the worst, you can become a god in the underworld and reshape the order of the underworld!
It's just that such an idea requires great courage. In this era when immortals and Buddhas have disappeared and the three realms are closed, few people would come up with such bold ideas.
The empress in green's eyes flashed with a look of deep contemplation.
After a long time, she said: "But conferring a priesthood requires a lot of incense and divine power. Only a few people can do it, but it is difficult for me to do it on a large scale."
Li Daoxuan smiled and said: "So the empress needs someone's help."
The empress in green looked at him and immediately guessed, "Li Shimin?"
Li Daoxuan nodded and smiled: "In this world, is there any easier way to obtain the divine power of incense than being canonized by the emperor?"
The empress in green is thoughtful.
"However, as you are the Lord of Qingming, it is not suitable for you to talk in person for the time being. However, as the envoy of Qingming, I am most suitable to go to Chang'an."
There is another sentence that Li Daoxuan did not say. Although the Empress in Tsing Yi is smart, she is not good at this kind of vertical and horizontal matters. After all, she has never asked anyone for help in thousands of years. It is always others who ask for her.
The Empress in Tsing Yi refused without thinking, saying: "Chang'an is the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, and the dragon spirit is very strong. People who practice Taoism will have their spiritual senses obscured if they are there. Even if there is a danger of death, they will be ignorant. It is too dangerous there. ”
There are very few Yang gods in the world who have settled in Chang'an. Because of the influence of dragon energy, their Taoist cultivation will decline, and they will feel very uncomfortable if they are in shackles.
Li Dao
The empress in green looked at him quietly, aware of the firmness in his eyes and knowing his temper. In the end, she could only sigh softly and said: "In this case, I will help you."
"Why do you have to be so polite to me?"
After a pause, he coughed and said with a smile, "As long as I don't get angry with me anymore."
The empress in green said calmly: "Why should I be angry with you?"
"Just now in the palace, I actually wanted to object to the proposed marriage, but I didn't think of how to politely refuse without hurting the face of my senior aunt and junior sister."
The empress in green glanced at him and said, "You are very considerate."
Li Daoxuan was startled, no, when he savored this sentence carefully, there seemed to be a hint of...jealousy?
But it seemed like it was also his misunderstanding.
Li Dao
Before he finished speaking, he found that his mouth had disappeared and he could not say a word.
There were waves in the eyes of the empress in green. She avoided Li Daoxuan's gaze and said calmly: "A beautiful face and a white bone can turn into nothing in a blink of an eye. People who practice Taoism should be pure of heart and have few desires, and see through the skin."
After saying that, she stretched out her jade finger and placed it between Li Daoxuan's eyebrows.
"A little gift is also a small punishment."
Clouds and mist rose under her feet, and she was about to fly away, but when she rose to mid-air, she seemed to remember something again, and left a sentence behind.
"Counting the time, the flower that Taizhen raised is about to bloom. If you go to Chang'an, you can go to Xuandu to look for her. Maybe you can get a chance."
After saying that, the fairy light disappeared through the sky and disappeared into the magnificent sunset.
