The bright moon is in the sky.
In a mountain forest, with little green lights flashing in the grass, seven wild wolves were lurking carefully, slowly approaching their prey. There, a giant python was fighting with a wild deer, and they were still in a stalemate with each other.
Experienced alpha wolves observe and observe that when the physical strength of the giant python and wild deer drops to the lowest point, it is the time for them to leap up.
Suddenly, the alpha wolf's ears moved slightly, as if he sensed some danger, and he pressed his body lower, while the other wolves following him also crawled down in unison.
Immediately afterwards, the giant python wrapped around the wild deer seemed to have noticed something. It hesitated and seemed to be sensing. Then, its body that had been tightly wrapped around the wild deer loosened and gave up the hunt. , slipped away towards the grass in another place, and the wild deer who survived the disaster seemed to have been frightened by something, and was about to leave the place without even stopping for a moment to breathe.
The first wolf was struggling at the moment. Logically speaking, they should swarm up to prey on the half-lived wild deer at this time. However, it felt a sense of oppression in the face of the ferocious beast, and this sense of oppression made it unable to resist. If he dared to move even half an inch, he could only watch the wild deer limping away.
Suddenly, where the python and the deer were fighting, the space rippled like water waves, and wisps of death aura emanated from the ripples.
The alpha wolf felt this breath, whimpered immediately, turned around and ran away. The other wild wolves followed closely, trying to escape from this dangerous place.
The frequency of the space fluctuations is getting higher and higher, as if forming a ripple gate that continues to spread outwards, and within this ripple gate, the Netherworld Death Air is finally no longer blocked and suddenly spurts out.
In an instant, the grass blades turned yellow and the flowers withered.
At this moment, a pair of figures held hands and rushed out of the corrugated door suspended in mid-air.
The two of them looked a little embarrassed, and their outer clothes were almost broken. At this moment, they both stepped on the ground, and both let out a sigh of relief.
No need to ask, these two people are naturally Chen Luo and Chen Xuan, the siblings who have returned from the Netherworld. "Sister, we are back!" Chen Luo felt the breath of heaven and said happily.
Chen Xuan also looked up at the bright moon in the sky and asked quickly: "Xiao Luo, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Chen Luo shook his head, but sighed helplessly in his heart.
Linhuang said that the Avenue of Life and Death could send them back to the human world. Originally, Chen Luo thought it was as simple as taking a high-speed train from Shanghai to BJ, but in fact, he was traveling through no man's land, and then entered the war-torn Middle East, and then had to cross A journey through a war zone.
Along the way, he encountered space turbulence at least five times. If he and Chen Xuan hadn't had a strong foundation, they would have been lost in the void.
There is no way, the reincarnation of heaven and earth has not been established, it is easy to go from the human world to the netherworld, but it is difficult to return from the netherworld to the human world.
"It's okay." Chen Xuan touched Chen Luo's face with some distress. Although she had extraordinary combat power, her physical body was weak. Chen Luo protected her tightly all the way, resisting the space impact.
My brother has grown up.
Under the moonlight, Chen Xuan took out another set of coats from the storage order and replaced the broken Taoist robe. Chen Luo spread the power of his soul and wanted to know where they fell.
According to Linhuang, opening the Netherworld Passage would bring the deathly energy of the Netherworld, so it would land them in an inaccessible place. As for the specific place, Linhuang could not control it.
"Where is this?" Chen Xuan asked.
"You can't tell. There are forests within a hundred miles and there are no human beings." Chen Luo shook his head.
Chen Xuan smiled: "There's no need to worry, it's under the sky after all, in the Daxuan territory. When daybreak comes, we will fly somewhere. We can always see people and cities, and we will know where we are."
"You sit down first and I'll check your injuries. After all, it's a boundary crossing. If there are some small hidden dangers that you don't pay attention to, it won't be worth it to affect Wanli Tongtian in the future."
Chen Luo nodded and sat obediently on the ground. Chen Xuan directly put her hand on Chen Luo's wrist, and a stream of innate purple energy softly penetrated into Chen Luo's meridians and began to swim in Chen Luo's body.
"Sister, you really don't want to come back to Fangcun Mountain with me to stay for a few days?" Chen Luo asked again while taking advantage of the inspection.
When she was in Netherworld before, Chen Xuan told Chen Luo about her future arrangements: when she returns to the human world, she will return to Shouyang Mountain to continue practicing in seclusion and strive to break through to the realm of Taoism as soon as possible.
"No." Chen Xuan shook her head while sensing Chen Luo's physical condition, "I still care about daddy's affairs."
Chen Luo's eyes flickered slightly.
He had previously told Chen Xuan about the cheap daddy's magic bag, and told Chen Xuan everything except his own life experience.
"His plan concerns you, so this matter can't be passed over in such a unclear manner!"
"I don't care what tricks he used on you, I raised you up in my arms. After being away from the soul for twelve years and finally coming back again, even my father will never think of doing anything to you again."
"Since he said, don't go into details if you are less than ten thousand miles away. Then I will break through to the realm of Taoist Master and see what kind of chess he is playing!"
Speaking of this, thunder flashed in Chen Xuan's eyes, and she smiled at Chen Luo: "Don't worry, the worst is that my sister will overturn his chessboard!"
Looking at Chen Xuan's smile, Chen Luo felt warm in his heart. For a moment, he didn't know what to say with his eloquent mouth. He could only nod his head and say "um" forcefully.
But just as she was moved, she heard Chen Xuan add faintly: "But the chessboard is probably not that easy to lift, but the Taoist sect still has some background."
"You have some snacks on your Earthly Immortal Avenue." "What Buddhism can give you, Taoism can't afford." "Do you understand?"
Chen Luo immediately understood, the exquisite heart in his body flashed with colorful light, and nodded quickly: "Understood!"
"Yes." Chen Xuan smiled and continued to carefully check Chen Luo's physical condition. Chen Luo looked at Chen Xuan's side face. The moonlight fell on her body, making her look extremely gentle.
One night passed.
When the morning light shone on the earth, Chen Luo and Chen Xuan had already stood up and flew towards the east. In about half an hour, they saw a small town and asked where they were.
It turned out that the two of them were in the middle of Hanzhou.
After asking about the location, the two of them had the direction. Chen Luo planned to go back to Fangcun Mountain first. After all, he had to deliver the wooden body to his uncle quickly, and then he would update "Journey to the West" step by step, and live in peace for a few days. .
I write books, go to Dongcang to listen to the opera, and go to Mantian to pick up things. I feel happy just thinking about these days of fishing in an open and honest way.
As for Chen Xuan, she wants to change direction and head southeast, returning to Shouyang Mountain.
"Sister, do you really want to go to Fangcun Mountain with me to stay for a few days?" Chen Luo still couldn't hold it back and continued to suggest.
"No, you have grown up now. It will be inconvenient for you if your sister is always with you." Chen Xuan smiled and shook her head.
"It's nothing." Chen Luo quickly denied, "If there is any inconvenience for me, I will tell my sister anything."
"Really?" Chen Xuan rolled her eyes at Chen Luo, "I have made a private decision not to tell my sister for the rest of my life, and I will not tell my sister if I lose Yuanyang."
Chen Luo:ヾ(￣□￣;)?
"Okay, I'm not sitting on death row. I miss you, so I will naturally go down the mountain to see you!" Chen Xuan stretched out her hands and hugged Chen Luo, "I will check on daddy's affairs. You do what you want to do. Things will be fine."
Chen Xuan's forehead was on Chen Luo's shoulder. After a moment, Chen Xuan left there. Chen Xuan raised her head slightly, looked at Chen Luo again, and said with a faint smile: "I have grown taller again."
"I go first!"
After saying that, before Chen Luo could speak again, Chen Xuan raised a bolt of lightning and flew directly to the southeast.
Chen Luo looked at Chen Xuan's back, turned his head, looked at the small electric light that was still jumping on his shoulder, breathed out gently, and rose into the sky, flying towards Fangcun Mountain...
Going all the way north, after flying for about three hours, Chen Luo saw a towering mountain in the distance. Don't panic, it's not Fangcun Mountain. It's Wanren Mountain where the Prime Minister's Palace is.
According to the law, flying over Wanren Mountain is not allowed without permission. You must either take a detour or go out from the ground through Yumen Pass.
But Chen Luo chose the third option: fall on Wanren Mountain!
After flying for so long, I came here to ask for a cup of tea and a mouthful of food. It’s not too much!
After landing in front of the mighty hall, Chen Luo learned that Cheng Nansong had gone to inspect the defense line. However, the deputy prime minister sitting in the hall was also Han Qingzhu's deputy. He had studied at Dongcang Prime Minister's Temple for a period of time, so he naturally knew Chen Luo, and he immediately welcomed him warmly.
But when Chen Luo was just halfway through eating, a mighty wind of righteousness blew up on Wanren Mountain. Cheng Nansong, who had just received the news, almost jumped all the way with the magical power of his family and the world and rushed back to Wanren Mountain.
"Chen Luo! Where is Chen Luo?" Before Cheng Nansong entered the Weiwu Mansion, he had already yelled with spring thunder in his tongue.
This roar made Chen Luo stop eating meat and watched Cheng Nansong rush in. Huh? Didn't I just come here to give you a free meal?
Not to the point, not to the point of.
"Military Prime Minister, are you back? Do you want to eat something together?" Chen Luo asked with a smile, but Cheng Nansong's eyes flashed with green light, and he looked Chen Luo up and down carefully.
"What are you looking at? It's me." As he said that, Chen Luo transformed into Bai Ze's appearance, and then returned to his true form as a human being.
Seeing Bai Ze's appearance, Cheng Nansong breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "I know that your body cannot leave Fangcun Mountain, so I thought someone was pretending to be you..."
"Are you...I have come back from the netherworld?"
"Yeah!" Chen Luo nodded, "The things there have been sorted out a bit, and it's just time to send me back, so I'll come up."
Speaking of this, Chen Luo looked at Cheng Nansong and said warily: "Don't ask me what I am doing in the Netherworld? I can't tell you."
"I know, I know." Cheng Nansong looked at Chen Luo with a smile on his face, "When you come back this time, are you still coming?"
"I won't go." Chen Luo shook his head, "The two worlds are falling apart, and it will cost a lot to go there. It's not necessary at the moment."
"Oh~" Cheng Nansong said meaningfully, then relaxed, sat opposite Chen Luo, and said with a smile, "Then what are the plans next?"
"Update "Journey to the West" carefully and prepare to open a thousand-mile road!" Chen Luo said vaguely while eating meat.
"Hmm... that's good." Cheng Nansong smiled, looked at the dishes in front of Chen Luo, and frowned, "How can I give these to Wu Hou!"
"Where's that savage beast that I personally killed two days ago? Make a copy of it."
With that said, Cheng Nansong stood up and said: "Wu Hou, please eat slowly while I go to handle some official business."
"Well, you're busy with your business, don't worry about me. I'll go back to Fangcun Mountain when I'm full." Chen Luo greeted.
"Go back to Fangcun Mountain directly?" Cheng Nansong was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "That's fine, that's fine."
After saying that, Cheng Nansong quickly walked out of the dining room.
Chen Luo frowned slightly, always feeling that Cheng Nansong's behavior was a bit strange, but... forget it, it's probably Wanrenshan's military affairs, what does it have to do with me.
Eat and drink enough, then hit the road. No, this sentence is unlucky. Eat and drink enough, go home quickly.
At this time, Cheng Nansong was looking excited, and this "Old Song of Nanshan" once again showed the smile he had shown before when his position as Dharma Minister was strengthened.
After waiting for a long time, I finally waited until today. After dreaming for a long time, my dream finally came true... This kid finally crawled back from the netherworld. The Dharma Prime Minister's position has been vacant for several months, and finally the rightful owner has arrived!
He, Cheng Nansong, is the Daxuan Military Prime Minister, but he has also been the Daxuan Dharma Prime Minister for more than 20 years. He has feelings for that position.
It was not easy to find a candidate like Chen Luo who had the ability to break the situation to take over the position, but he just "swooshed" and fled to the netherworld. He couldn't say anything about any major events in the world.
But if you say he is not in a hurry, that is impossible.
After all, during this period of time, the saints of the aristocratic family were also eyeing this position, and it was His Majesty who resisted these pressures and left Chen Luo empty-handed!
Now, he is back! Still want to stay in Fangcun Mountain to update? It’s a wonderful idea.
How can you sit still at your age? Continue to shine.
Cheng Nansong stepped into his study and began to deliver a message to Daxuan. "Luo has returned, come quickly to announce the decree!"
Cheng Nansong sent out the highest-level messenger blue bird, then sat on the chair and let out a sigh of relief.
Several insiders tacitly agreed not to mention this matter to Chen Luo in advance.
Not wanting to interfere with what he was doing was just one of the reasons, and the other was that these elders had all watched Chen Luo grow up in a short period of time.
What should I say about this boy? He is never ambiguous in the face of righteousness, and he never cares about personal gains and losses. He is not proud of his high achievements, and he is not conceited of his fame.
Especially at a young age, he has a great mind and a big heart. He is a rare good boy. But the only problem is that he is too lazy.
I procrastinate even when writing an article, and I have earned myself the reputation of being a literary person.
If the Dharma matter had been discussed with him in advance, maybe this guy would have found some excuses to shirk it.
What Yan Baichuan said makes sense. In the eyes of this boy, these mundane things are very troublesome. It is better to be a high-ranking Taoist master.
It's impossible to explain it, that kid is full of evil thoughts, and as long as he wants to push back, he will definitely find an excuse.
Therefore, the overlord must take this matter seriously! Appoint him directly and tell the world! Let’s see how this guy refuses.
After all, in addition to turning a deaf ear to the "disgrace of the literati" and being extremely thick-skinned, this kid is obsessed with saving face most of the time.
On the other side, Chen Luo, who was still eating and drinking, saw a very high-level messenger blue bird flying out from the center of Weiwu Mansion, turning into a ray of light and flying towards Zhongjing.
"Sure enough, there are important military affairs!" Chen Luo nodded, "No wonder Cheng Xiang looks so weird..."
After eating and drinking, Chen Luo bid farewell to Cheng Nansong, received a warrant for the volley, and flew towards Fangcun Mountain.
But before leaving, Cheng Nansong's smile became more and more suspicious... An hour later. Zhongjing, Imperial Garden.
After a day of court meetings, His Majesty Daxuan Ye Hengzheng and Minister of Literature Zhou Zuofeng and Prime Minister Han Qingzhu enjoyed a pleasant afternoon together.
By the way, let’s talk about the change of Yuan.
Ye Heng thought that Zhenghe's reign name had been used for a long time. Now that the general trend of the world has changed, maybe this reign name can be changed.
However, the suggestion for the reign name given by these two prime ministers was actually "Xuanzhang"! What do you mean? You also said that "Zhangzhe" is a paragraph of an article; it can also mean rules.
Nonsense! You are just criticizing me! Then what will future generations call me?
Emperor Xuanzhang? Impossible, absolutely impossible! But this cannot be rejected directly, otherwise I will appear guilty.
I must take advantage of this opportunity of afternoon tea in the Royal Garden to skillfully guide the two prime ministers to come up with an era name that suits my status.
"I like the 'Xuanzhang' reign name mentioned by my two dear friends very much, and I plan to adopt it, but..."
At this moment, the chief eunuch Hou An walked in quickly holding a messenger blue bird: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"This letter from the military commander is extremely urgent!"
"Huh?" Immediately, Ye Heng, Zhou Zuofeng and Han Qingzhu all looked serious. Are there urgent military orders? Could it be that the barbarians are attacking again?
Ye Heng quickly took the letter from Hou An, opened the seal, saw the words inside, and immediately laughed: "So that's it."
As he said that, he looked at the two prime ministers who looked puzzled and said, "Chen Luo is back from the Netherworld!" "He is now at Fangcun Mountain." "Cheng Aiqing asked us to quickly deliver the order and make the appointment." "Finally back?" Zhou Zuofeng also smiled, "Then make the appointment quickly."
"It's not a big deal that there's always no truth in the biased area!"
Han Qingzhu nodded: "The old man and Prime Minister Wen will go back first, and in the name of Wenchang Pavilion and Zhengdatang, they will spread the matter to the scholars and various ministries and publicize it to the world."
"Yes, it's ready." Ye Heng nodded, looking forward to it, "This capital city is finally going to get lively."
Zhou Zuofeng and Han Qingzhu looked at each other, smiled, and nodded.
"By the way, it's to spread the word to the world anyway. Let's talk about the change of Yuan Dynasty by the way." "The new prime minister took office and the year name was changed to Yuan Dynasty, which highlights a new atmosphere!"
Ye Heng was stunned: "Well... it's okay, but..."
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I understand that I will not let the change of Yuan Dynasty steal the limelight of Marquis Wu." Zhou Zuofeng comforted Ye Heng, and then he and Han Qingzhu directly used their Confucian magical powers and disappeared into the imperial garden.
Ye Heng:!!!∑(?д?ノ)ノWait! I didn’t mean that.
Hou An, hurry up, chase them back for me! Night is falling. Fangcun Mountain.
Chen Luo's return to Fangcun Mountain naturally caused a lot of excitement. After the excitement, Chen Luo returned to his study.
At this time, Chen Luo looked at the wooden body that had turned into a seed and sighed. The most urgent task was to send the wooden body to the Netherworld. However, he knew the etiquette and could not go empty-handed.
So, I still have to bring two manuscripts!
Therefore, at this moment, Chen Luo is writing hard and updating the latest chapters of "Journey to the West".
But before I finished writing a chapter, I heard another noise outside the door, and then the voice of the mastiff sounded outside the door: "Sir, Eunuch Hou is here to announce the decree."
"Declared a decree?" Chen Luo frowned slightly, "What decree was declared?"
Chen Luo stood up and walked out of the study. He saw Hou An standing outside with a smile and holding an imperial edict, followed by two teams of young eunuchs. Cheng Nansong, whom he had only met in the afternoon, also had a smile on his face and stood beside Hou An.
The ceremony of announcing the decree was a bit different.
"Master Hou, I have received the order." When Hou An saw Chen Luo, he also called out with a smile.
Chen Luo stepped forward blankly and gave Cheng Nansong a "what's going on" look, and Cheng Nansong responded with a "good thing" look.
Good thing, that's no problem. Chen Luo stepped forward, bowed and said, "Chen Luo accepts the order."
Hou An then opened the imperial edict, his tongue burst with spring thunder, and his voice spread hundreds of miles around Fangcun Mountain.
"The emperor is entrusted by heaven to say: To seek governance, the officials of the herdsmen should follow the principles, teach benevolence and righteousness, be respectful and sincere, praise and reward, and give you great rewards. Today, the Chen family's son Luo has great merit and virtue, and I hereby confer the imperial power on you. 'An Guogong', hereditary, regardless of succession, retired with the country."
"Zhi said: The imperial court attaches great importance to the laws and regulations of people's livelihood, sets up bias offices to detect lawlessness in the world, and adopts the idea of impartiality and impartiality. It is the center pillar of the country. Today, the phase is vacant. There are the former prime minister Yan Sheng\the former law prime minister Song Sheng\the prime minister Zhou Zuofeng\the political prime minister Han Qingzhu \Cheng Nansong, the Prime Minister of the Army, and officials of all sizes recommended that An Guo Gong is worthy of the important task. An Guo Gong Luo was specially granted the title of Minister of Law and took office immediately."
"I admire this!"
After reading, Hou An smiled and said: "Congratulations to the Duke, congratulations to the Prime Minister. Please accept the decree." Chen Luo had not yet reacted. What's going on?
Have I become a duke? Have I become a Dharma minister?
At this time, a continuous cheer came from the foot of Fangcun Mountain!
