"Huh? Have you agreed on a time?" Chen Luo asked.
According to etiquette, when Chen Luo met his senior for the first time, he should first submit a greeting letter to express his intention to visit, and then the other party would reply with a time, and Chen Luo would come to the door at this time.
I heard that Emperor Qinglong claimed that he was old and lacked energy, so he did not see guests often. Many monsters who wanted to see him often had to wait outside the Wutong Forest. There were even some ancestor monsters in the waiting team. Chen Luoxun thought that given his relationship with Emperor Qinglong, he should be able to arrange a meeting soon.
"The reply said that the young master can go at any time." Mastiff Lingling said, "But..."
Chen Luo saw the strange look on Mastiff Lingling's face and asked, "What is it?"
"A gift list is attached to this letter!"
Chen Luo was also a little confused when he heard this. Emperor Qinglong must be too polite.
Replying to a letter and giving myself a bunch of gifts, could this be... a kiss from another generation?
Dear Master!
From now on, I will go to Wutong Forest to sit there often.
"Okay, put the gifts in storage..." Chen Luo nodded, "Prepare them for me..."
"Sir!" Mastiff Lingling interrupted Chen Luo, "You misunderstood."
"That gift list was not sent to Fangcun Mountain by Wutong Forest. It was listed for you to send to Wutong Forest as a gift."
Chen Luo: (#`n′)
What did you say?
Chen Luo directly took the jade slip that conveyed the message, looked into it with his mind, and suddenly there was a trace of cold sweat on his forehead.
this……
Old man!
Is this a salute? This is a betrothal gift!
Who has ever seen a prayer list so grand? They are all in pairs!
Speaking of which, Sixth Senior Sister mentioned that Master and Sister Xiaozhu didn’t seem to hold a ceremony...
Are you asking me, a disciple, to help the teacher make up for the betrothal gift?
Good luck.
Emperor Qinglong is blackmailing his children and grandchildren!
Chen Luo put down the message slip in his hand and looked at Mastiff Lingling.
In an instant, the master and servant were connected spiritually——
We need to find a big enemy!
At this moment, Zhuiyue came running up and down and said sweetly: "Master, Master, the great scholar of the Fang family is here..."
Chen Luo: (??w??)?
Mastiff Lingling:?(??︶??)?
Chasing the Moon: ゛('◇')?
…
An hour later.
"Mr. Fang, have a nice trip. I'll wait for you to come back at Fangcun Mountain!" Chen Luo personally put Fang Huaping on the floating boat, waved his arms vigorously, and shouted at Fang Huaping.
"Master Baishan, don't worry. Fang will come back as soon as he goes. Please wait patiently for a few days, Master Baishan." Fang Huaping said goodbye to Chen Luoxing on the bow of the floating boat.
Fang Huaping was excited at this time. He had been to Fangcun Mountain so many times, and this was the first time he saw Master Baishan so enthusiastic. He actually sent him to the ship himself...
Look, I'm flying, but he's still standing there watching.
Looking at the human race, who can get this treatment?
However, the resources that Lord Bai needs this time are indeed somewhat valuable, and the time is a bit urgent, so he still needs to raise some funds...
At this moment, Fang Huaping suddenly heard the sound of Chen Luo reciting poetry——
"My old friend bids farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west. Fireworks descend on Yangzhou in March."
"The shadow of the lone sail in the distance is gone in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen flowing in the sky."
Fang Huaping was stunned: Lord Baishan was chanting farewell?
Although this poem is inappropriate for the time, Lord Baishan is a demon clan after all, and presumably it is just to express farewell.
Fang Huaping felt warm in his heart and immediately shouted: "Master Baishan, please come back."
"The supplies you need will be delivered to you personally one day later!"
Isn't it just some supplies?
Besides, there is still one-tenth of it!
The Fang family has a great business, is it still missing this point?
We must satisfy Lord Baishan!
Hearing Fang Huaping's voice from the floating boat, Chen Luo nodded with satisfaction.
One day is more or less the same.
Sure enough, you still need to be perfunctory when you should be perfunctory.
Chen Luo shook his sleeves, hummed a tune and walked back. Mastiff Lingling also smiled and followed.
…
Putting aside the matters in Wutong Forest for the time being, Chen Luo returned to his study and began to plan his own journey of nine thousand miles.
According to the current growth rate of his worldly aura, he should be only a few months away from reaching the peak of the Fourth Stage. However, considering that "Butterfly Lovers" is originally an opera, once rehearsals are completed and it is performed, the audience will be wider, so the time will actually be shortened.
In addition, although the first reading of the previous books has passed, people who really need to practice the red dust will start to seriously study the human principles in them, and will still provide Chen Luo with a steady stream of help, so Chen Luo believes that he should It will reach the peak of the fourth level in about a month at the latest.
Don't think that Chen Luo's cultivation speed is fast. There are more than hundreds of millions of people and monsters in the world who are reading his books. It's just that most of them have been absorbed by the way of heaven and martial arts. What falls into Chen Luo's hands only makes him a hundred million points faster than normal people. That’s all.
But when Chen Luo seriously considered the Nine Thousand Miles Road, he suddenly discovered a problem.
In Wen Yunsun's way of explaining the Nine Thousand Miles of Tao to himself, there were two methods in total. One is to try hard to solidify your own principles into a rule when you are at the peak of the fourth rank, and then write it out in the way of "writing to convey the Tao". When Heavenly Dao approves the content, the rule will be established and become the rule of your own country, country and world. With the foundation, the Nine Thousand Miles Road unfolds naturally.
The second method is more adventurous. You need to draft your own moral article first, and then when you feel it is appropriate, take that step directly, and use the Confucianism Avenue to briefly stay within the scope of nine thousand miles, and directly write down what you have already said. Moral articles. If it succeeds, because you are writing from a distance of nine thousand miles, you will be blessed by the power of rules, making your rules stronger and your foundation more solid. If it fails, there is no turning back after taking this step. The soul will fall directly to the avenue, be shattered in the dark, and die.
The so-called "walking in the courtyard" and "reaching the sky in one step" are blessings for the latter.
At that time, Chen Luo didn't feel much when he first heard it. He just complained that the Nine Thousand Miles Dao Guard given to him by his senior brother was a bit unreliable. But now when he really started to plan the Nine Thousand Miles seriously, Chen Luo suddenly discovered a problem.
He seemed to have no choice.
Others don't know, but Chen Luo knows his own affairs. The stories he writes all come from a world with thousands of years of splendid civilization in his previous life.
It was precisely by writing those stories in this world that I achieved my current achievements.
During the process, Chen Luo himself also tried to write some stories that he did not get from the flower forest, but that he knew well, such as "The Biography of Liu Yi", but Chen Luo soon discovered that these stories still could not be written in elegant Chinese, or even in plain Chinese. It will also be burned by fire from heaven.
Of course, it can be told by dictation to others, but it does not contain any power. It is just a small story, such as the story of the gourd babies before. In fact, the seven little gourd babies themselves are in the critical period of incubation. That story is just a story. It's just to inspire, not because of this story that the little gourd baby was born.
In other words, only the books obtained from the dreamland flower forest can be considered as "legally" existing in this world.
So, a problem arises.
According to Wen Yunsun, Chen Luo had to write nine thousand miles of books to open a nine thousand miles of road; but Chen Luo couldn't open a nine thousand miles of flower forest without opening a nine thousand miles of road.
It's like if you want to go home, you need to use the key to open the door, but you forgot the key at home. You have to open the door first to get the key.
It’s an endless loop!
If the first path doesn't work, there is only the second path.
First take that step of Nine Thousand Miles, then instantly activate the Nine Thousand Miles Flower Forest, then quickly get the book, and then quickly write an article...
But Senior Brother’s swordsmanship...
Not stable!
Chen Luo sighed deeply and decided to go into Hualin to try.
Thinking like this, Chen Luo calmed down, closed his eyes, and moved his soul towards the dreamland flower forest in the sea of souls.
…
Chen Luo opened his eyes and stood in the dreamland flower forest.
In the dreamland flower forest at this time, as the flower forests at Sanqianli and Liuqianli bloomed on a large scale, hundreds of birds transformed into phoenixes soared, which can be said to be the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
After bypassing the Good Fortune Flower Garden and walking through layers of trees, Chen Luo stood in front of the nine thousand miles of flower forest.
At this time, the Nine Thousand Miles Flower Forest was still shrouded in a layer of clouds and mist, and Chen Luo could feel a vital but boundless power from the flower forest.
"Spirit of Illusion!" Chen Luo called out, and then, a gust of wind blew up, and the petals on the ground slowly gathered into a human shape, and he cupped his hands towards Chen Luo: "I have met my lord."
Chen Luo nodded, then pointed to the Nine Thousand Miles Flower Forest and asked, "What should I do if I want to open the Nine Thousand Miles Flower Forest in advance?"
Chen Luo's question seemed to stump the spirit of the illusion. The petal humanoid was silent for a moment before saying, "There is no way."
"The rules of this world are special. The books in the flower forest all have images of otherworldliness. Only by being refined by the Lord's spirit and writing can they be transformed into the writings of this world."
"If you rashly open a flower forest that exceeds your lord's cultivation level, your lord's soul will not be able to bear it and there will be a danger of collapse."
Hearing this, Chen Luo had a look of understanding on his face, but he still had a just-in-case mentality and asked again: "Is there no way at all?"
The spirit of the illusion was silent for another moment, and then slowly said: "Either the Lord's soul matches the Flower Forest Book, the fog will disperse by itself, and the Flower Forest will be opened; or... there will be other forces to share the pressure of opening the Flower Forest Book for the Lord. .”
Chen Luo's eyes lit up: "Can I borrow some help?"
"What needs to be done?"
"What level of soul power is needed?"
The spirit of the illusion shook his head: "It is not the power of living beings, but the power of heaven and earth that gave birth to these books."
"Only this power can share the burden of the Lord's soul."
Chen Luo frowned slightly: What are you talking about!
You want me to go back in time, start Nine Thousand Miles and come back?
Chen Luo sighed. Sure enough, he shouldn't ask more questions.
"Got it." Chen Luo waved his hand, and the spirit of the illusion bowed, and the petals scattered and dissipated in place.
"It seems that we can't avoid this disaster, so we have to give it a try." Chen Luo sighed in his heart, and with a certain thought, he left the dreamland flower forest.
…
Fortunately, Chen Luo's depression did not last long, because the punctual Fang Huaping delivered the agreed supplies to Fangcun Mountain the next day.
After briefly dealing with Fang Huaping, Chen Luo put all these things into the storage order and left Fangcun Mountain for Wutong Forest.
This time it was a formal visit, so there was no need to be sneaky like the previous times when he left the mountain. Instead, Fangcun Mountain was handed over to Ma Zuuri for guarding. The Moon Rabbit cleared the way, followed by the Mastiff Spirit, and headed to the Wutong Forest with great fanfare.
Hearing that Lord Baishan of Fangcun Mountain was going to visit the Qinglong Emperor, Bai Sanqian, the great lord of Sizhu Kingdom, immediately assigned a thousand demon soldiers to guard him, and sent two other great sages to accompany him. Later, Yuyuan, Qingqiu, Junji, and Davari They also sent elite soldiers and generals to accompany them all the way. As a result, only half a day after setting off, they had already turned into a mighty team.
Now that he has come out of the mountain, as a well-established person, Chen Luo will naturally not swagger all the way to the sycamore forest. Instead, he will enter the mountains and stay when he encounters the water. Whenever he sees a tribe with monsters living there, no matter what Whether it is a wealthy clan with a great ancestral demon or a small demon clan with only three or two big cats and kittens, regardless of whether they are familiar with him or not, they will all come to visit.
The euphemistic name is: Bai Mo was born not long ago, and he is not deeply involved in the world. He often writes at his desk in Fangcun Mountain, and he does not have a deep understanding of the bloodlines of the demon clan. This trip is just a good time to see more of the Monster Clan’s scenery and get closer to the Monster Clan’s bloodline. When writing novels in the future, I can have more prototypes of the character’s bloodline.
The words are beautiful, but how powerful is his white ink article? If you want him to take a look at it on weekdays, they are all important clans. How can they be compared to other demon clans?
If it were normal, these demon clans would not expect to show up in Lord Baishan's article. Anyway, they could just follow a few major demon clans. But now that everyone has talked about it, if you don't fight for it, the descendants of the bloodline will point it out. Scratching your nose and scolding.
What's more, if you don't fight for it, what if the demon clan on the mountain next door wins it?
Don't worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality. This is the case all over the world.
As a result, wherever Chen Luo went, he was greeted with great ceremony by all the demon tribes. Some of them even specially arrested a few human Confucian scholars to teach etiquette. When Chen Luo left, he couldn't help but prepare some money for his family. Gifts, but also say "small gifts are not disrespectful".
But who is Chen Luo? Can he accept these gifts?
So while we were going back and forth, someone finally reminded the monsters who gave the gifts, claiming that they were entrusted to Chen Luo to help bring a little thought to the Qinglong Emperor. Chen Luo then reluctantly accepted it and gave away a piece of Fangcun Mountain. The sycamore forest produced sycamore leaves as a return gift.
It was really not intentional. The main reason was that Chen Luoxiang brought some leaves to the Qinglong Emperor to see how the sycamore trees were growing in Fangcun Mountain. He did not expect to use them here.
It's all a coincidence!
In order to take into account the wishes of more demon clans, Chen Luo specially modified the route and detoured as many hills as possible.
It doesn't matter if you are a little tired, you can't let the demon clan down.
This is not the Southern Wilderness, but the worldly wisdom!
Nanhuang is known as the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Although there are only a few big clans, there are countless branch clans underneath. Even though he accelerated his journey, a full ten days had passed by the time he reached the boundary of Wutong Forest. And in the past ten days, as Mastiff Lingling muttered "Thank you Lao Tie for the three melons and two dates" from time to time, she probably earned twice as many gifts as the Qinglong Emperor's gift list.
Well, barely.
Entering the boundary of Wutong Forest, the guards and soldiers who were sent to see the Wutong Forest all said goodbye. After all, Wutong Forest was open to Chen Luo, not them. However, Chen Luo did not treat them badly. Half of the gifts he received were distributed, and all the guests were all in a hurry. Huan, the name of Mountain Master Bai, who was generous in his actions, instantly became famous, almost as famous as Yi Bo Yuntian Jinwu Lang.
…
The Wutong Forest was said to be a forest, but it was actually a vast plain. As soon as Chen Luo walked not far away, a Qingluan fell from the sky and landed in front of Chen Luo, transforming into the appearance of Sister-in-law Jianjia.
"I've met the third sister-in-law!" Chen Luo saluted quickly. Jian Jia also smiled when she heard Chen Luo's name. She stepped forward and looked at Chen Luo carefully before shaking her head and saying, "I lost a little weight. It seems that I have suffered a lot." I have suffered..."
Chen Luo shook his head: "It's because my third sister-in-law loves me so much that I see it this way. Everything is fine with me. It's just that I worked hard in the wilderness before, but I'm fine the rest of the time."
Jian Jia nodded, with a hint of embarrassment on her face: "I also heard from my sister about the matter in the wilderness. That Feng Bugui is really too much. If there is a chance, the third sister-in-law will vent your anger on your behalf."
"No, if he wants to cause trouble for me, I won't let him go." Chen Luo said with a smile.
"Yes, you have some backbone. Much better than your unreliable Third Senior Brother." Jian Jia stretched out her hand to smooth Chen Luo's clothes, "We will reminisce about old times later, so follow me into the forest first. The Emperor is waiting for you. Woolen cloth."
"Yes." Chen Luo responded, "Then the people I brought..."
Jian Jia looked at the mastiff Lingling waiting behind Chen Luo, and smiled: "Don't worry, I came to pick you up first because I was impatient. Let them wait for a while, and other sisters will come to receive them."
Chen Luo nodded, said hello to the mastiff Lingling, and followed Jian Jia to the depths of the sycamore forest.
…
It seemed that some formation had been passed, and suddenly a huge tree that seemed to stretch up to the sky crashed into Chen Luo's line of sight. The tree was so thick that it would have been difficult to see the whole picture clearly if one were not standing far away, and with Chen Luo's With my eyesight, I didn't even see the top of the tree. Chen Luo only saw countless Luan birds flying around the tree.
"That is the true form of the emperor." Jian Jia explained to Chen Luo with a smile.
Chen Luo nodded, but suddenly he was stunned and thought of something.
King Qilin said before that when he was in the Wutong Forest, his favorite thing was to climb a tree and dig out a bird's nest. Could it be that he climbed this tree...
Tsk tsk tsk, he is indeed the Qilin King.
He was carried by Jian Jia for a while, and finally landed on the ground. At this time, Chen Luo saw that the grass and trees on the ground seemed to have formed a lounge chair, and an old man with a thin body, who seemed to be wrapped in a large robe, sat on it. On the recliner, the old man's hair was withered, and the wrinkles on his face were like ravines, vaguely seeming to form the shape of a rune.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the leaves and fell on the back of his wrinkled hands. At this time, the old man closed his eyes tightly and seemed to have fallen into sleep.
Chen Luo was slightly stunned. Is this the most powerful Azure Dragon Emperor in the world today?
"Emperor, Chen Luo is here." Jian Jia called softly, and the old man yawned and slowly opened his eyes.
"Here he comes..." Emperor Qinglong seemed to force himself to smile, "Come, sit down in front of me."
As soon as Emperor Qinglong finished speaking, vegetation quickly sprouted on the ground in front of him, forming a small chair.
"Jianjia, go get some snacks that children like." Emperor Qinglong said again.
Jian Jia smiled, patted Chen Luo on the shoulder, turned and left. Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Emperor Qinglong's kind face, walked to Emperor Qinglong, and bowed respectfully: " Chen Luo, a disciple of Zhulin, has met his master!"
"Well, okay." Emperor Qinglong nodded lightly, "Have you gained a lot along the way?"
"ah?"
"In the past ten days, you have plundered a lot of things, right?"
Chen Luo smiled awkwardly: "They asked me to bring you some love."
The Qinglong Emperor looked at Chen Luo, and there seemed to be a smile in his cloudy eyes: "Back then, your master took Xiao Zhuzi to deceive people in the Southern Wilderness...and now you are here again."
The Qinglong Emperor sat up slightly, "It's not easy to survive in the Southern Wilderness, and these treasures are enough to make some small tribes break their muscles and bones."
Chen Luo heard this and hesitated: "Then I will go back?"
"Since you are showing your kindness to me, an old man, naturally I, Wutong Lin, am here to return the favor." Emperor Qinglong raised his head and blew lightly.
In an instant, a gust of wind rose out of the sky, and the towering sycamore tree swayed slightly for a moment, and then Chen Luo saw countless green light spots flying towards the outside of the sycamore forest.
"That's..." Chen Luo said doubtfully.
"A little bit of pure and gentle Sun Essence and Moonlight..." Emperor Qinglong said lightly, "It will go to the demon tribe that you gave the phoenix leaf to."
"The essence of the sun and the moon are enough to make up for their losses."
Having said this, Emperor Qinglong looked at Chen Luo: "Don't think that because you are from the human race, you don't care about the reputation of the demon race."
"Sooner or later, your identity will be known to the world."
"The demon clan may not be your reliable help. Don't sacrifice your future righteousness for the sake of small gains in the present."
"Confucius said that there is no distinction between teachings, Taoist ancestors said that everyone who enters our door will be free, and Buddha said that all sentient beings will be saved. As the leader of the Tao, if you have a higher vision and a broader mind, your world will be able to accommodate more."
Chen Luo's heart moved when he heard this, and he quickly stood up and saluted again, saying sincerely: "Disciple, thank you Master for your teachings."
Emperor Qinglong waved his hand: "I just want to say a few words casually, don't be nervous, sit down quickly, sit down quickly."
Chen Luo sat down again, and the Qinglong Emperor continued: "The return gifts have been given, so just accept those gifts. I won't give you a meeting gift."
Chen Luo smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, thank you Master for the reward."
"Haha, little slippery man." Emperor Qinglong raised his hand and nodded at Chen Luo, and then said, "You did a good job with the Elephant Clan. I am very satisfied..."
Chen Luo quickly declined and said, "It was only thanks to the protection of the master's Wutong leaves that I was lucky enough to complete the mission."
Emperor Qinglong shook his head: "There are some situations that I didn't expect, but you handled them properly."
"Originally, I wanted to use a ray of clone to suppress the rule of reincarnation, but I didn't expect you to take it directly. You are really a person blessed by heaven, and you even have the treasure to take the rule."
Chen Luo was stunned: "Master, you don't know what I used to collect it?"
Emperor Qinglong shook his head: "That rule is the reincarnation rule condensed by the master of ancient Buddhism. In order to protect the Elephant Clan, the secrets of heaven are blocked. The old man just descended into a clone, so naturally he cannot spy on it."
Isn't this a coincidence?
Chen Luo quickly took out the storage order, took out the mysterious egg from it, and said with a smile: "This disciple is visiting Master, firstly to visit you, and secondly for this treasure that collects rules."
"Master, do you know its origin?"
"Huh?" Emperor Qinglong took the egg and looked at it carefully. Chen Luo added: "I bought this egg at the auction house in Qilin Domain. Later I showed it to King Qilin, and he Said it was stolen from a tree when I was here with you..."
"Little roe deer?" Emperor Qinglong was stunned when he heard this, and then he seemed to think of something. His eyes fell on the egg, and his face stretched around, revealing a smile, and sighed, "It's that egg..."
