In the blink of an eye, November of the first year of Xuanzhang came.
There are already clues about the White Disaster on the Mantian side, and I heard that their Khan tribe war has finally come to an end. Although the chance of war this year is extremely small, just in case, the imperial court has already taken action and begun to mobilize troops and generals to strengthen the northern defense line.
At the same time, the sun was still shining brightly in the southern wilderness. Since a great war has vacated many territories, the overall pattern of Southern Wilderness has also regressed from stock competition to incremental competition. In addition, the star demon system has removed the restriction of bloodline quotas, and the current demon clan is showing a thriving trend.
Of course, Chen Luo still adhered to Nan (Sa) Huang's (hand) self-governing (cabinet) style in all the profit distribution and bargaining matters here, leaving them all to Feng Nanzhi and Ye Dafu, while he himself I started my second tour of the Southern Wilderness with Little Aowu.
By the way, regarding Xiao Aowu's name, Feng Nanzhi originally planned to name it "Beixuan", which means "the father comes from Daxuan in the north", but Chen Luo decisively rejected it after he realized that it was called "Chen Beixuan". This proposal.
The cause and effect is too great to bear.
In the end, the two debated for a long time and decided on the name "Xingzhu".
The star of the stars, the bamboo of the bamboo forest.
Her maiden name is Chen Xingzhu, and her nickname is Aowu.
There was an episode in the middle, that is, Feng Nanzhi wanted Xiao Aowu to take her surname. As her husband, Chen Luo certainly satisfied Feng Nanzhi's little need.
The surname "Feng" is attached to the baby's given name.
The wind howls!
To the human race, these are all names, Chen Xingzhu and Feng Aowu are all the same.
Feng Nanzhi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.
Obviously he wants the "Wind Star Bamboo"...
…
I have to say that Xiao Aowu's harvesting ability is much stronger than Chen Luo. The actions of Little Aowing Four Stars at the grand ceremony have spread throughout the Southern Wilderness. In addition to those demon clans who are qualified to give gifts at the grand ceremony, more small and medium-sized demon clans have already prepared all the belongings they can get their hands on. , welcome the arrival of the eldest princess of Nanhuang.
As for those monsters who have given gifts at the ceremony... Hey, who would have thought that the noble princess could have such a skill!
Send again!
Must send again!
The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy, so don’t be surprised if there are too many people!
This is the future ruler of the Southern Wilderness. He cannot avoid being deceived or deceived.
As a result, Chen Luo had just walked halfway and had to increase his fleet.
What was being pulled on the motorcade was not a gift, but a magic storage device for the gift.
Chen Luo walked all the way like this, which made the two old people anxious.
Let’s not talk about going to Qingqiu or Yuyuan. What the hell are you doing in the Marmot Clan? Are you greedy for their century-old sweet potatoes and thousand-year-old potatoes?
I heard that the prairie dog family was even made to line up in a row and shout for a whole day and night. Boring or not?
What? The little guy was very happy to hear that?
Hmm... Come on, come on, catch a hundred prairie dogs!
…
First, after staying in the Qilin Domain for seven days, the little wailing never came off the Qilin King's head. Qilin King's carefully prepared little pink didn't arouse Little Aowu's interest, but when the barbecue grill was set up and the smell of barbecue came out, Little Aowu drooled next to it.
This discovery also made the Qilin King overjoyed. He specially smashed all the meat and tendons in each piece of barbecue, leaving only the surface layer, and let the little Aowu bite it down, just like drinking meat porridge.
how to say?
Grandpa and grandson have fun!
On the other hand, Chen Luo talked to Brother Wuji about the peacock clan. When Feng Bugui first conquered the Five Color Immortal Realm, he killed the Peacock Clan in the Wild Soul Realm and adopted the Peacock Clan as a slave. In the subsequent battle, the ancestral demons of the Peacock clan were also dead. Now that Weihu Mountain is liberated, there are probably only about twenty great saints left in the Peacock clan.
After Wuji hesitated for a long time, he asked Chen Luo to take action. He plans to return and revitalize the Peacock clan. Chen Luo naturally had no choice but to write a warrant to Brother Wuji, asking him to go directly to Weihu Mountain to collect the people.
In addition to Brother Wuji, Bao Chengzu also came to meet Chen Luo. In the previous battle in the Southern Wilderness, the Leopard Clan's counterattack was an important part of the coalition's invasion of the Tiger Territory, in which Bao Chengzu was a key figure. Now Chen Luo has made the decision to lift the Leopard Clan's status as a slave, and Bao Chengzu also plans to return to the Leopard Clan and take over as the leader.
Seeing that the seeds he had sown before took root and sprouted one by one, Chen Luo was also sincerely happy.
On the day of leaving the Qilin Territory, the Qilin King made an exception and sent him ten steps away from the Qilin Territory. He kept telling Little Aowu that he would come to see Grandpa next year and that Grandpa would prepare the best barbecue ingredients for her. Little Aowu also cheered enthusiastically. The whimpering response moved the Qilin King to death.
But as soon as he arrived at Wutong Forest and saw those ginseng dolls, Xiao Aowu might have forgotten the promise he made with Grandpa Qilin King...
…
"Wanli, what are your plans next?"
Emperor Qinglong looked at Xiao Aowu who was playing with the ginseng doll and asked.
Chen Luo took the tea from Jian Jia, took a sip, and said, "I have some questions that I would like to ask Mr. Teacher."
"Say!" Emperor Qinglong put away his gaze and looked at Chen Luo.
"First of all, it's about the Netherworld!" Chen Luo put down his tea cup and asked, "Now my uncle is still trapped in the road blocked by the false Buddha, unable to access the Netherworld Road, which makes the two worlds unable to unite."
"Right now, I have traveled thousands of miles through the world of mortals, including Buddhism. I wonder how I can help my uncle?"
Emperor Qinglong pondered for a moment and said: "There are two ways to deal with this matter."
"The first one is the Fa-rectification battle currently going on in the Western Region!"
"Every battle between your worldly Buddhism and the false Buddhas in the Western Regions is a battle for the righteousness of the Dharma. Once the worldly Buddhism wins, it means that the truth wins once, and the law of heaven will be more biased towards you."
"Over time, little will add up, and the recognition of Red Dust Buddhism in the Heaven's Way will be far greater than that of today's Buddhism. Their power in the Heaven's Way will naturally weaken or even dissipate."
"Of course I can help that girl from Netherworld win the Netherworld Avenue!"
Chen Luo nodded after hearing this. It's like two companies competing for the market, and the winner takes all.
"However, according to what I know, although you used the Tripitaka Sutra in "Journey to the West" as a way to bring back countless ancient Buddhas, you are restricted by the world of mortals, and their highest cultivation levels are currently suppressed in the world. The first state of Bodhisattva!"
】
"But there is a great Bodhisattva equivalent to the Three Questions and Half Saints over there in the Western Region."
"If it weren't for the Confucian sect pretending to be Buddhist disciples and suppressing the battle in the Western Regions, I'm afraid the ancient Buddhist sect would have been beaten out by the pseudo-Buddhists in the Western Regions."
Chen Luo: (.-`w′-)
Yeah?
I don’t know about Confucianism pretending to be Buddhist disciples!
What do you, the old man, say to me, a martial arts master, about what Confucianism does?
Emperor Qinglong rolled his eyes at Chen Luo and continued: "This way, it is destined to be flawed."
Chen Luo sighed lightly, using his previous understanding that he did not have high-end products and could not seize the high-end market.
But you can't let him break through to the level of Three Questions and Half Saint overnight.
"So, the current focus is still on Netherworld. If that girl Azhao and Ksitigarbha can kill a few more great Bodhisattvas with advanced cultivation, they can also achieve the result of the integration of the two realms as soon as possible."
"Of course, if you can improve the level of mortal martial arts, it will have the same effect."
"But this is where the disciple is confused now." Chen Luo smiled bitterly, "How should we practice after thousands of miles?"
Although it was said before that we were clearing the way, at least the route was clear, just keep going forward, from three thousand miles, to six thousand miles, to nine thousand miles, and finally to ten thousand miles to the sky.
But now that the journey is over, what’s next?
What if? Or twelve thousand?
Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism are not this way either.
Apart from anything else, I can't even write "The Romance of the Gods" right now. In the past, Tiandao would give some hints, but now it seems to be stuck here.
Qinglong Emperor General Chen Luo looked troubled, and a faint smile appeared on his old face.
"The practice after thousands of miles will be about cultivating heaven and earth."
"Take Confucianism as an example. Today, there are only semi-sages between heaven and earth."
"But do you know? Half-Saint is not actually a realm. Including the realms of other cultivation paths corresponding to Half-Saint, such as the ancestral demon of the demon clan, these are actually not realms."
"It's a process!"
"In ancient times, traveling thousands of miles away was called entering the Saint Realm, and the demon clan was called the First Ancestor Realm."
"The next realm is the saint realm; the demon clan is called the emperor demon realm!"
"What a half-saint, what an ancestor demon, it's just the level of cultivation."
Chen Luo frowned slightly, thinking about the meaning of what Emperor Qinglong said to him.
"Master, what do you mean, I can't follow the practice models of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism step by step to design a path after martial arts?"
Emperor Qinglong shook his head: "It's not that I can't, it's that you can't do it!"
"After Confucius opened the Confucian path, he crossed from the realm of sainthood to becoming a saint in one step, and set a roadmap. This gave future generations the opportunity to become saints by asking three questions."
"The Demon Clan is even simpler. The Demon Ancestor directly evolved into the Four Spirit Emperor Demon, which allowed the Demon Clan to see the path of the Emperor Demon. That's why the terms desolate bones, desolate veins, and desolate souls came into being."
In other words, the three questions and the three desolations were not actually set by Confucius and Yaozu, but by the standards set by later people in their practice.
As for Chen Luo, as the leader of the path, what he needs to do is to set a goal for future generations to move forward. As for whether martial arts will be in three small realms or seven or eight small realms in the future after Wanli, it is a matter for future generations. It has nothing to do with Chen Luo.
To give an inappropriate example, Chen Luo is currently responsible for building a house. As for the decoration inside the house, he doesn't need to worry about it. He doesn't live in this house anyway.
Chen Luo's current problem is that he is racking his brains on decoration drawings in front of an empty space, but there is no architectural drawing.
After listening to the Qinglong Emperor's story, Chen Luo had some feelings in his heart, but at the same time he had new confusion.
According to Emperor Qinglong, he had to think about it first.
It seems that other Tao masters have fallen to the level of saints, but in this heavenly way, there can be no saints!
Emperor Qinglong seemed to have seen through Chen Luo's thoughts, and said leisurely: "If the way of heaven cannot be found here, then go to the outer world!"
Chen Luo's heart moved, and he suddenly looked at the Qinglong Emperor: "Is there a saint outside the sky?"
The Qinglong Emperor raised his hand and waved, and a vine grew from the ground in the distance. He stabilized the little Aowu who was about to fall. Then he looked at Chen Luo and said, "What do you think?"
"Don't mention Taoism, let's just talk about Confucianism."
"Although there have been no saints in your human race since Mr. Wu Liu, but what about those saints before?"
"Do you really think everyone is dead?"
"And the emperor demon of the demon clan suddenly became like a saint and disappeared from the world at the same time?"
Chen Luo opened his mouth, and he suddenly realized something he had ignored before.
I have always said before that there will be no more saints in the human race and no emperor in the demon race.
But the question is, what about the past?
It’s understandable that you won’t be able to practice to this level in the future. After all, the rules of heaven have overflowed. So what about those who have reached this level before?
It's impossible for everyone to agree on a fight and then all die together one-on-one.
There are also barbarians!
The barbarians and the human race have been at odds for thousands of years. When the human race has saints, it is a bit unreasonable to say that the barbarians do not have strong men of the corresponding level.
It seems to have disappeared at the same time.
Chen Luo looked at the Qinglong Emperor. He understood that it was because he had traveled thousands of miles that he was qualified to have access to this information.
"Are they all outside the sky?" Chen Luo asked tentatively.
But when Emperor Qinglong heard Chen Luo's question, he shook his head: "They are not outside the sky either."
"Then..." Chen Luo became even more confused and looked at the Qinglong Emperor.
Emperor Qinglong sighed softly: "In short, everything is related to Confucius's Sealing Heaven!"
"Old man can exist in this world because he has a duty!"
"But correspondingly, I can't go too far and show off the emperor demon's strength."
"Since you have confusion about cultivation today, I will naturally tell you the truth."
"Your next path of cultivation will not be within heaven and earth, but outside of heaven and earth!"
Chen Luo was thoughtful and looked up at the deep sky.
"You can ask the Confucian sect directly about the specific affairs of Tianwai and the arrangements of Confucius and Saint Confering Heaven."
"The ancestor of the Yan family who took action before came from outside the world. He should know a lot of things."
"And your master, who is stationed outside the sky now, should also have a lot of information."
"Go and have a chat with them. Maybe after the chat, you will know the way forward."
Chen Luo nodded again, and after a moment, he stood up and bowed to Emperor Qinglong: "Thank you, Emperor, for your teaching."
"Well, I am old, so I know a little more." Emperor Qinglong waved his hand and said casually, seemingly unintentionally, "I see that Xingzhu and Wutong Forest are quite compatible, so why not let her stay here for a few more days? How about I teach you personally?"
Hearing this, Chen Luo quickly smiled bitterly and said: "The child is still young and cannot live without her mother. When she grows up, she can be sent to the master for guidance."
Emperor Qinglong heard this and nodded.
It only takes a little time, I can afford to wait.
"Then disciple, please leave first." Chen Luo cupped his hands. He had done nothing in the past few months since Wanli.
Everyone is going to be ruined!
After listening to the Azure Dragon Emperor's words, he now plans to immediately prepare to go to the outer world.
"You can go by yourself. The child will stay here for a few more days. Then I will ask Jian Jia to send her back!" Emperor Qinglong said.
Chen Luo paused when he heard the words, turned his head to look at Xiao Aowu who was having fun, and shook his head.
If he goes back alone, Feng Nanzhi will definitely bite him to pieces!
Forget it, it’s not a few days away anyway.
Please accompany the girl yourself.
Otherwise, when he really goes to Tianwai, he doesn't know what will happen and how long he can stay with her.
This child has grown up after just one day of absence.
Azure Dragon Emperor: ( ̄┏Д┓ ̄°*)
You're not leaving again?
But I don’t want to keep you!
