The golden light appeared from above the stone platform, indicating that the golden immortal who was about to appear came from heaven. Because the golden light was too dazzling, everyone was not allowed to look directly at it, and could only lower their eyebrows and lower their heads or turn their heads to look elsewhere.
After the golden light faded, everyone turned their attention back to the stone platform. They saw a tall and thin middle-aged man standing on the stone platform. This man had handsome features and a strong spirit. He wore a bun on his head and wore What he wears is a suit of green shirt, and what hangs on his waist is not a long sword, but a white jade pendant with twisted silk tassels.
In addition to the white jade pendant hanging around his waist, this person also wears a crystal clear green jade on his chest, and a string of jet-black beads on his left wrist. Each beads is the size of a fingernail. A dozen. On her right wrist is a string of bright red rosary beads. The rosary beads are much smaller than the beads, but the size of a pea. If you wrap them around your wrist three times, there are eighty-one beads.
In addition, his left hand also holds a delicate small gourd. The small gourd is golden in color, warm and delicate, and should be carved from topaz.
When they saw clearly what this person was wearing, everyone outside the venue was surprised. If they hadn't known in advance that this person was a golden immortal, just looking at his clothes and attire, no one would have guessed that this person was an immortal. On the contrary, He is more like a scholar who comes from a famous family and is pampered.
The man in green shirt didn't have a serious expression, and his eyes were quite kind. Seeing everyone staring at him dumbfounded, the man in green shirt smiled and said, "What are you looking at me doing? Don't I look like a god?"
Naturally, everyone did not dare to answer the conversation rashly, but the man in blue had a friendly demeanor and spoke casually, which made everyone secretly relieved. You must know that every immortal has a different temperament, and everyone has to be wary when encountering a serious immortal. , walking on thin ice. If they meet a talkative god, everyone will be more at ease and relaxed.
No one answered, and the man in green didn't take it seriously. He said again, "The next selection will take quite a long time. I'll take a short break with you in half an hour. I have some things to do after my death that I haven't arranged properly. I'll be back on time in half an hour." .”
As soon as the man in green shirt finished speaking, the cold wind outside the Immortal Palace blew in from the ridge. When everyone looked back, the man in green shirt had disappeared without a trace.
Everyone didn't expect to get a chance to relieve themselves. Seeing that the exit was opened again, they all got up from their seats and went out to get some air and relieve themselves.
Changsheng and Shi Xuanming also left their seats and went out with the others. Gongshu Xuanming was from Jiangnan and liked the heat and was afraid of the cold, so he did not follow them.
It was already midnight, the sky was dotted with stars, and it was still ice and snow outside the Immortal Palace. Changsheng was still a little sleepy, but when he came out of the Immortal Palace, he was blown by the cold wind and instantly felt refreshed.
It had only been five or six hours since the last time they relieved themselves, and the two of them were not in a hurry. However, because they didn't know how long the fight for the golden talisman would last, the two of them went to the place where they had relieved themselves before to relieve themselves again.
Halfway through urinating, Big Head shouted from behind, "Your Majesty!"
The incident happened suddenly. Chang Sheng was startled by Da Tou. He was frightened back in the middle of urinating. He turned around and looked back, only to see Da Tou and Yang Kai appearing not far behind him.
When he had the urge to urinate, Changsheng asked casually, "How are things going? Where's Yu Yi?"
"The things are done and the things have been replaced," Datou said happily, "Yu Yi just sent us up. Miss Ni brought the cook down below and cooked a lot of delicious food. Yu Yi is bringing you some food. Yes, you’ll be up in a moment.”
Changsheng finished packing, turned around and looked around, only to see that the group of black-clothed men and the masked woman had not come out to relieve themselves. If the group of black-clothed men came out at this time, he would never be merciful and would immediately attack.
Shi Xuanming grabbed two handfuls of clean ice and snow, kept one for himself, and handed one to Changsheng. Changsheng took it and activated the pure Yang spiritual energy to turn the snow and wash his hands.
"I just ran a silver talisman to the west. Has the gold talisman not started yet?" Big Head asked.
Before Changsheng could answer, Yu Yi suddenly appeared from nearby, carrying a food box, teapot and other items in his hand.
It was too cold outside, so everyone returned to the Immortal Palace. Seeing Datou and others returning, Gongshu Xuanming immediately stood up and gave up his seat.
No matter how everyone tried to persuade him to stay, Gongshu Xuanming insisted on leaving. In fact, there were still many empty seats on the right side of the crowd, but Gongshu Xuanming did not sit there, but returned to his original seat.
Changsheng Datou gave some snacks and tea to Gongshu Xuanming, and then ate and drank with Shi Xuanming. Shi Xuanming no longer had to play, so he dared to eat as much as he wanted. He was worried that eating too much would affect the competition, so Changsheng only took a few bites. After eating a spring roll, I put down my chopsticks.
"Is he willing to change?" Changsheng took the hot tea from Da Tou and rinsed his mouth.
"He definitely doesn't want to change," Datou said. "We had to coerce and induce him before he gave in unwillingly."
"What conditions did he not put forward?" Changsheng asked again.
Big head shook his head and said, "This guy feels like he has suffered a huge loss. How could he not raise conditions? Not only did he raise conditions, but he raised three of them at once."
"What?" Changsheng asked.
"The first is to pardon his previous crimes," Datou said. "This guy does evil everywhere. He is wanted by more than 200 people in more than 300 states across the country..."
"Don't exaggerate." Yang Kai interrupted Da Tou.
"Even if it's not two hundred, it's almost the same," Big Head said. "He asked us to pardon the crimes he committed before. This is one. The second one is to ask for money. This guy is a real lion. He opens his mouth. One million taels, not a penny less."
Changsheng frowned slightly when he heard this. One million taels is really not a small amount. The annual salary of a seventh-grade county magistrate is twenty-five taels, and that of a fifth-grade Hubu doctor is only forty taels.
"The third condition is that if someone kills him, we have to protect him," Datou said. "If you hadn't told us before, we would have killed him directly. Now it's good to have a father back."
Seeing Chang Sheng's brows furrowed, Datou thought he was distressed about the one million taels, "My lord, don't worry, our palace still has one million taels, so you don't have to worry about money."
"What I'm worried about isn't money." Changsheng shook his head.
Da Tou clicked his tongue and sighed, "That's right. If someone kills him, we have to rescue him at any time. It's troublesome enough."
"That's easy to say," Chang Sheng said, "What I'm worried about is how to pardon him. This person has done too many cases and has had extremely bad influence. If he is pardoned, it will inevitably lead to criticism from the government and the public, not to mention that only the emperor has the power. We don’t have the power to pardon him.”
"Are you afraid that the emperor will feel uncomfortable?" Datou asked.
Shi Xuanming said, "Your Majesty must feel uncomfortable. You get the benefits by calling him names."
"Eat what you have." Datou frowned and waved his hands, then turned to thinking, "Or just refuse to admit it. Anyway, I didn't write him any evidence."
"What are you talking about? What you promised is what I promised. You must not break your promise." Changsheng shook his head.
"What should we do?" Datou was worried, "If it doesn't work, let's give a bronze talisman to Liu Tianlin and the others."
After speaking, Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming both nodded.
Yang Kai shook his head, "Don't forget, what you got from Murong Feng was the silver talisman."
"What do you mean?" Big Head glared, "You can't give him the silver charm, right? No, then wouldn't our work be in vain?"
Yang Kai's face was expressionless, "You have overlooked a very important detail. The spiritual talisman is equivalent to immortality. Immortality is a great temptation for everyone, including the emperor."
Hearing Yang Kai's words, Datou and the others looked at each other as if they were waking up from a dream.
After being stunned for a long time, Datou frowned and said, "If you say so, even if we give the silver talisman to the emperor, he will not be satisfied. Just like the prince sharing the blood-earned horse back then, we have to give him the best."
Yang Kai nodded slowly.
"What, this is all," Datou glared angrily, "What do you mean, if the prince grabs the golden talisman, you still have to give it to him?"
Yang Kai didn't answer.
"Give him a use for nothing. He doesn't know martial arts, so he's occupying the latrine instead of shitting." Datou said eagerly.
"If the prince keeps the gold talisman, no matter if he gives him the silver talisman or the bronze talisman, he will not be satisfied. He will suspect that the prince has second thoughts, and the high-ranking civil servants in the court will fan the flames and sow discord." Yang Kai said sternly.
"Fuck, he didn't do anything, so why should he eat what's ready-made? He has to eat the best." Datou scolded.
"Just because he is the emperor..."
