In front of the Shang Palace.
As soon as Zi Shou's consciousness exited the Ancient Emperor's Prison, he heard Yuan Hong's deafening voice.
He was stunned for a moment, a little unbelievable.
The most critical step in the Great Shang's decree to confer gods is the technique that can lead to immortality after several springs and autumns. It is the art of conferring gods on humans that Feng Jiu perfected based on the past Amitabha Sutra.
The targets of this edict are those cultivating grass-headed gods all over the valleys of fairyland.
They are spiritual creatures from heaven and earth who opened their minds by chance. They may be a bird, a snake, an earthworm, or even a stubborn stone, a wisp of smoke, a red cloud, a pool of water...
They can transform into human beings, and the demonic nature in their hearts is gone, unlike demons who only have the desire to kill.
But that's all.
The cultivation level of these grass-headed gods cannot reach the human-immortal realm at most.
If he remembered correctly, this ape had mastered Tongxuan and was invincible under the Golden Immortal.
In the final stage of becoming a god, Yuan Hong was resourceful, brave and good at fighting, but in the later stage of becoming a god, Jiang Ziya was unable to move forward.
In the end, Nuwa used the map of mountains and rivers to subdue him, and Jiang Ziya invited the immortal-killing flying knife to return his soul to the list of gods.
What is this concept?
Among the gods, how many are lucky enough to be patronized by two innate magic weapons?
Why would such a powerful demon king come to Chaoge to ask for a patron saint?
At this time, Zi Shou suddenly remembered.
His list of recruiting gods clearly states, "On the first day of the sixth lunar month, everything will be auspicious, and those seeking titles from all over the world will gather together to sing."
Everything is still undecided now, and all the preparations for the Conferment of Gods have not been completed yet.
Why is this monkey so impatient?
Are all hozens like this?
but……
Doubts are doubts.
Now that a character like this is here, there's no reason not to accept it.
A smile suddenly appeared on Zi Shou's face, and he plucked a one-foot-large gourd from the wall with a wave of his hand.
The gourd was filled with the aroma of wine and was filled with King Yu's wine requested from You Chong.
He pushed open the elegant black paint door and stepped out with a gentle step. His figure immediately disappeared, leaving only broken stone slabs and smoke.
At this time, Zi Shou's cultivation was already at the early stage of human immortality, and his energy and blood were soaring into the sky that he could rival a golden immortal.
After a few breaths, he arrived in front of the palace gate.
Zishou received a courtesy from the guards and was about to greet the leader of the Seven Monsters of Meishan.
Suddenly, Zhunti's spiritual consciousness came down from the sky.
Zishou stopped immediately.
He stared blankly at the ape with all white fur, which looked like a pitch-black cauldron.
this moment.
Zi Shou suddenly understood why this monkey was so eager to come to Chao Ge to ask for a title.
He was inexplicably saddled with the blame for killing the White Lotus boy. The only people in this world who could protect him were the few saints and the only place in the world where the country was prosperous.
Zishou just paused for a moment, then walked out of the door and came to Yuan Hong, his imperial smile plastered on his face.
"Fellow Taoist is well-known, but I have been famous for a long time!"
"Today, I, on behalf of thousands of people from the Great Shang Dynasty, respectfully welcome fellow Taoists to join the business community."
Yuan Hong stared blankly at the handsome man in front of him.
He has sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, phoenix eyes that are powerful, his imperial robes billow in the wind, his bun is casual and natural, and his whole body exudes an aura that makes people feel like they are taking a breath of spring breeze.
It was difficult for Yuan Hong to associate the man in front of him with Di Xin, the King of Shang who looked down upon the world, killed gods with Qishui, and denounced Haotian angrily.
but.
Yuan Hong could see the national destiny soaring into the sky behind him. This national destiny was like a pillar of heaven, making him afraid to get close.
Only the human king has the ability to protect the destiny of the country in this way.
Yuan Hong quickly prepared to bow and kneel, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a strong force lifting him up.
Then Zi Shou's voice came.
"No need to be formal, why are you wasting your time?"
"Courtesy lies in the heart, why bother to stick to formalities."
Yuan Hong was shocked when he heard this.
There are only four words in my heart.
This is the Lord of Ming!
Yuan Hong was not restrained, stood up, cupped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. The common people are just a wandering cultivator in the mountains. They are quite skilled in Taoism. Today, they come here to ask for the title of a guardian deity to protect their people."
Zishou waved his hand and said with a smile:
"The patron saint is just a god, absorbing the incense offered by the people under his protection. They can only breathe in their luck and feed their masters, and they cannot cause disasters or enter the world of mortals."
"My fellow Taoist has already reached a towering level. Are you willing to lurk and just be a guardian deity?"
"If you are willing, fellow Taoist, there is a better location here."
Yuan Hong's eyes suddenly lit up.
Four more words came to mind.
The true master!
Know my heart!
Of course he didn't come to Chaoge to beg the patron saint of the area.
This is just an excuse.
If you want to walk in the human world, be protected by the fate of the country, and not be contaminated by the misfortune of the mortal world, you must be a high official in each state, the commander-in-chief of the four directions, guarding a city, and leading the city's fortune.
Unexpectedly, before Yuan Hong had figured out how to speak, Zi Shou had already made arrangements.
At this time, Zishou was carrying a gourd of King Yu's wine and said:
"Fellow Taoist, you have been traveling all the way, and today I will personally take care of you."
Yuan Hong was just about to say that he was flying in the clouds and mist, but an idea came to him, but Zi Shou did not give him a chance to shirk.
"It's just you and me today, don't refuse."
"I have nothing to do today, so I invented a new dish, called black pot... no, ground pot pheasant, paired with this gourd Yuwang wine, it tastes good."
After Zi Shou finished speaking, Qi and blood flowed through his body and he said:
"Fellow Taoist, follow me."
After saying that, the air exploded, and his figure rose into the sky and disappeared.
Yuan Hong was stunned for a moment, and with a sweep of his consciousness, he discovered that Zi Shou's figure jumped hundreds of feet and arrived at a tavern and inn at the south gate.
Yuan Hong blinked his eyes and looked at the cracked stone slabs under his feet. Thinking that he was actually being lifted up by him, he couldn't help but murmur to himself.
"It is said that the human king has great strength when he replaces the beams with the pillars. This one is a bit too much."
After Yuan Hong finished speaking, golden light flowed under his feet, and he ran away, clearly passing through the crowds and houses of Xiran, but no one noticed.
After the two left, the civil and military officials finally ran out from the branch office carrying their official uniforms.
When they came to the palace gate, they only saw cracked bluestone slabs on the ground, and were told by two guards who had just recovered that the king flew away.
All civil and military officials were immediately dumbfounded.
Wen Zhongze stroked his beard. He thought about the inexplicable loud voice of the king when Qishui became a god, and he was thoughtful for a moment.
…
In front of Longmen Inn.
The two paused, and Yuan Hong stood respectfully behind Zi Shou.
No matter how carefree he once was, Haotian could not see him when he entered the mountain gate, but now that he has chosen to join the sect of the human king, he must abide by the rules of the world.
The rules of the human world are the reason why most practitioners of the Three Mountains and Five Mountains do not want to come to the human world.
To walk in the world, to be protected by the destiny of the country, and not to be exposed to the misfortune of the mortal world, one must enter the court and serve as an official, and kneel down to worship the king.
They are immortals with powerful powers.
The human king is just a mortal, but he is of good birth. Even if he has the fortune to protect his country, how can he be worthy of being worshiped by their immortals?
"go in."
Zi Shou smiled and walked into the inn. The innkeeper, Passerby A, was taking inventory of more than a dozen stacks of "accounts" three feet high. He had two dark circles under his eyes, but his energy was shining.
When he saw Zi Shou coming in, he hurriedly wanted to worship him. But when he saw the majestic white ape behind Zi Shou, he was startled.
"Damn it! Such a big monkey!"
Yuan Hong:......
Zi Shou:......
Zi Shou said calmly:
"Du Yuanxian dares to use the royal curse words of Gu. Wait until he comes and tell him that this year's salary is gone."
Passerby A’s heart: What the hell?
