"oh?"
Gu Dan showed a look of surprise at the right time, "I wonder where your senior is? I just have doubts, could you please ask for advice."
"ha"
Zhuang Sheng smiled and shook his head and said: "That senior is like a bird in the sky, soaring upward without knowing how high it is; or like a big fish in the North Ming Dynasty, diving into the abyss but not knowing how deep it is. He has contributed to the peace of the world without admiring his fame. , The best martial arts in the world without any profit. In fact, this is the only thing I have seen in my life!"
"Is there such a strange person?"
Gu Dan's brows were raised slightly, the corners of his mouth could not help but curve slightly, and he tried to straighten his face.
"If you haven't seen it, you really don't know."
Zhuang Sheng sighed, "It's a pity that such an extraordinary person has extraordinary thoughts, which are beyond the ability of ordinary people like us to guess. Even if the immortal world falls into the human world, he has nothing to worry about. Where is he now? I'm afraid It’s hard to say.”
"It's a pity that we don't have the opportunity to meet such a strange person."
Gu Dan sighed at the right time.
As early as when he was in the Xia Dynasty Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, he knew that this kid Zhuang Sheng was capable and capable!
"That senior has no intention of making a name for himself in the world, so it's hard to mention his name. However, those kind of people are by no means a thing in the pool. Maybe there is a chance to meet again, and then Fellow Daoist Kong can go and ask for advice."
Zhuang Sheng said.
"Oh? As you said, will such a person give me advice?"
Gu Dan asked.
"This is wrong. That senior living in the mortal world has extremely cold eyes and the warmest heart. His eyes are cold, so he does not care about right and wrong; his heart is warm, so he is filled with emotion. Although he knows it is useless, he still cannot forget his feelings. After all, he is hot-hearted. Live: Although I can't forget my feelings, I still don't take action. In the end, I see it through with a cold eye.
He is not a heartless person, but he also cares about the common people and pities the younger generations. Fellow Daoist Kong behaves openly and informally, so it is not difficult to gain his appreciation. "
Zhuang Sheng said seriously.
"It's so true!"
Gu Dan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
It's not because Zhuang Sheng keeps saying nice things about him, but because someone finally understands him!
Although he didn't actually have much contact with Zhuang Sheng during the Xia Dynasty, they had become close friends at this time.
"Speaking of that senior, there is another interesting thing. I'm afraid fellow Daoist Kong doesn't know about it."
Zhuang Sheng also laughed, as if he was remembering those particularly leisurely years in the Xia Dynasty.
"oh?"
Gu Dan raised his eyebrows slightly, "How can I still know my own affairs?"
"Fellow Daoist Kong, do you know why Hall Master Huang Chao likes to fight against the Grand Master?"
Zhuang Sheng asked.
"Isn't this because Hall Master Huang Chao is warlike?"
Gu Dan said doubtfully.
"Haha, if you really want to be warlike, why not challenge a monk of the same level? Why can't you rely on the power of foundation building to get through with the master?"
Zhuang Sheng asked back.
"Then I want to give the masters a warning and tell them who has the final say in Immortal Fang?"
Gu Dan says again.
These two statements are actually the most widely circulated statements in Xianfang.
The difference is just a better-sounding point, a more common guess.
"No, no!"
Zhuang Sheng shook his head repeatedly, "Just because when Huang Chao Hall Master was still the master, his family fortune was wiped out, he was full of loneliness and anger, and he was furious.
But before he could think of ways to seek revenge from his enemies, all of his enemies were eliminated by the senior I mentioned.
The great revenge was avenged, but Hall Master Huang Chao was filled with coldness. Knowing that there are people outside the world, he traveled hundreds of millions of miles to the Buzhou Mountains - at that time, Hall Master Huang Chao didn't even know that this place could cultivate immortality! "
As expected, these remarks should probably be embellished.
Huang Chao, who was furious at the time, should have been quite frightened when he heard that all the four-nation coalition forces were suddenly wiped out.
After all, he had stirred up troubles in Dayue for so many years, and there was actually an irresistible master watching behind his back. He suddenly took action and easily defeated a large number of enemies that even he was exhausted.
Who else would be so frightened that they would be covered in cold sweat!
It's normal to run as far as you want.
After all, the previous powerful leader of the White Lotus, a powerful rebel group who had conquered the moon with him, died quietly, and he could not guarantee that he would survive in his hands.
Gu Dan also felt a bit amused by the twists and turns.
He had no grudge against Huang Chao, and even if it really appeared in front of him at that time, he probably wouldn't take action.
But as the saying goes, knowing a person's face but not his heart, not to mention that Huang Chao has never even seen his face, let alone knowing a person, so it is normal for him to run away immediately.
"Blessings come where misfortunes lie, and misfortunes lie where blessings rely."
Gu Dan could only sigh like this.
If he hadn't frightened Huang Chao, Huang Chao would have lost his family fortune and probably wouldn't have run along the path of the falling stars at night. In the end, he would have reached the Buzhou Mountains and successfully led Xia Chao and others for decades. Gu Dan was still there. Among those who knew it, he was the first to build a foundation.
This is the blessing behind the disaster.
One peck and one drink of it is enough to make people think deeply.
"yes."
Zhuang Sheng also nodded and said with a helpless look on his face: "Panel Master Huang Chao is a blessing in disguise, but he still has a problem. After being promoted to Foundation Establishment, he always likes to practice with a grandmaster, and he often asks us who is stronger or weaker than that senior."
"Oh? Then it seems likely that Hall Master Huang Chao is stronger. After all, his reputation as a foundation builder is like thunder."
Gu Dan said extremely humbly.
"Ah"
Zhuang Sheng smiled, and naturally he was not in the mood to reveal anything related to the Grand Master. He just said: "Such an interesting story, fellow Daoist Kong Kong, please don't mention it in front of Hall Master Huang Chao, otherwise I'm afraid I will have to practice magic with you often." ”
"Haha, of course it won't happen."
Gu Dan smiled sarcastically and said: "From what Fellow Taoist Zhuang said, I should have lived in the same country as Hall Master Huang Chao. No wonder Fellow Daoist Zhuang is so disinclined to fight that he would settle down in the Law Enforcement Hall.
It’s just that I see that Fellow Taoist Zhuang doesn’t have much contact with other monks on weekdays. Could it be that you, like Master Huang Chao, came here alone? "
He had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
In the Ningfang Law Enforcement Hall, he only saw Zhuang Sheng, but Qing Pingzi and Zou Dan were not there.
Back then, the grandmasters of the Xia Dynasty rushed to the Buzhou Mountains together. Now that one of them has arrived, there will probably be no changes in the other grandmasters. Why is it that only Zhuang Sheng is seen now?
"Not really, it's just that Ningfang's time is the shortest after all. Not many people are willing to come here. Even if they come here, few people are willing to have a leisure time like me."
Zhuang Sheng explained.
He is probably the only person who can say that the Law Enforcement Hall is peaceful.
But it is indeed a fact.
Ordinarily, the Law Enforcement Hall does not need to send out all the people. Even if someone needs the Law Enforcement Hall to go and capture them, they basically need to 'line up'. After all, this is also a job.
If you don’t want to go, there are many people who want to go!
If you weren't greedy for the extra money, it wouldn't be a big deal. The Law Enforcement Hall would indeed be free, and no one would bother the Law Enforcement Hall.
"Okay, let's not talk nonsense for now. Fellow Daoist Kong must know why you are here today, right? Hall Master Huang Chao invited me and sent me to call you. Let's go."
Zhuang Sheng asked.
Prefecture level area.
Stepping into Huang Chao's cave again, the rich spiritual energy came out, making people feel relaxed and happy.
He didn't even need to activate the Aoki Liquid, even if he relied on his low-grade spiritual root qualifications, the spiritual energy was slowly being absorbed into the body, which was extremely comfortable.
How can such a wonderful scene not make people greedy?
"Kong Zhai."
Huang Chao's eyes wandered around his body, "How are you feeling after your injury?"
"Thanks to the hall master's care, it is almost in good condition now."
Gu Dan said.
After he blew up the cave, he was "severely injured" and was sent to the Lingzhen Hall in the mortal area for training.
As for the punishment, it was thirty spirit stones, which was about a little over a year's salary. This was considered a fairly light punishment. After all, it was not just his own cave that was harmed by him. It was considered a small punishment but a big warning.
"Wan Zhiqi, the leader of Lingzhen Hall, has already told me about your matter."
After a brief exchange of greetings, Huang Chao said straight to the point: "What do you think?"
"Please give me some advice, Master."
Gu Dan kicked the ball back.
"ha."
Huang Chao then laughed and said, "Both emotionally and logically, you have the unique ability you have now, so you should give full play to your maximum value. If you want to achieve foundation building with the following spiritual roots, you must grasp every step. There is no opportunity to slack off. In this regard, Lingzhen Hall is indeed a good place."
Gu Dan listened silently without saying anything.
"The position of the elder of Lingzhen Hall can bring you a lot of conveniences, and you can't even use it to build a foundation before it is paid. However, I do have a new opportunity here in the Law Enforcement Hall. I wonder if you are interested?"
Huang Chao asked.
"Please make it clear, Master."
Gu Dan replied without changing his expression.
"This year, not even a share of the spiritual rice harvested by the other five immortal farms will be confiscated."
A slightly murderous smile appeared on Huang Chao's face, "Guess what will happen next?"
"Hiss~"
Gu Dan took a deep breath at the right time.
He said why the tense situation suddenly turned into negotiations, and the feelings were waiting here!
The cave was sold out before, but there must still be many people who are lucky. What if, what if Xianfang comes up with a solution?
Wait a minute, maybe there will be a turning point?
It's not that they are forced to do so, but few people really want to risk their lives to have a chance with the Foundation Establishment Overhaul.
Even if you are a master, you still have to burn your flesh and blood - that's flesh and blood that has been cultivated for decades!
These people are actually the biggest unstable factors.
As the saying goes, the enemy is not to be feared. What is to be feared is the traitor, who is unstable in determination and unable to gather his strength in one place.
The original intention was to attack from below, but if they were to spread out further, they would probably be defeated individually, and they would be separated from one another.
Now after waiting for more than half a year, the situation has not eased at all, and even the negotiations have not yielded anything.
After being delayed until this point, I am afraid that all the people inside the five fairy houses have lost their hearts, and the monks inside can no longer have half a hope in it!
In this case, Xianfang still wants to harvest the spiritual rice according to the contract?
Give you face!
One or two, there are many ways to solve it, but now that all the low-level monks have united and refused to cooperate, and even have the support of the grandmaster, what should we do?
Forced collection?
A must-do!
Don’t accept it?
Loss of face!
The majesty of Xianfang for decades has been destroyed in one moment. I am afraid that it will be even more dangerous if it is regarded as a wax statue of a silver gun!
As for whether there is a solution?
Of course there are, such as re-planning the spiritual formation inside the Immortal Square and artificially expanding the area of the yellow-level area, so that the urgent need can be easily solved.
The only slight disadvantage is that as the yellow level area increases, the aura content of the prefecture level area will decrease.
The faucet cannot spray out to the sea. It is a small pond. No matter how you draw it, there is only so much water. If one thing disappears, the other will grow!
And this is not a real and thorough solution to the problem. It is nothing more than a death sentence being changed to a reprieve, and delaying it for a few more decades to see if the masters who are approaching their end of life can be tortured to death first, so as to quench their thirst by drinking poison.
Just looking at the current direction, I'm afraid those five fairy houses are not even willing to drink poison to quench their thirst.
Naturally, the superiors do not need to understand the sentiments of the people. If the people of the lower class share more of their spiritual energy, it is equivalent to them having to practice for a longer period of time!
How can this be tolerated?
"It seems you already understand."
Huang Chao nodded, "The Buzhou Mountains are about to change. At this time, it is no longer suitable to hide one's capabilities and bide one's time. There are only so many opportunities. Once you miss it, you will regret it."
"The hall master is joking. I am just a master, and I have just reached the middle stage of Qi training. People like me can be picked up by the Law Enforcement Hall, and there are even many who are stronger than me. Among them, I How many kilograms and taels is it?"
Gu Dan asked rhetorically.
"This isn't like you."
Huang Chao encouraged: "Back then you dared to burn your flesh and blood and punch me, but now that the opportunity comes, you actually want to back down? What's more, I have gone to explore the cave that was destroyed by you, and its power is that of a foundation-building monk. I'm afraid it's too much to bear, and I'm already qualified to get a share of the pie.
Realm and other things cannot determine the real combat power. Even the most accomplished warriors have records of killing their masters. Since your martial arts are excellent, why should you belittle yourself? "
"It's not just to belittle oneself."
Gu Dan shook his head and said seriously: "It's just that I don't understand any opportunity that requires me to risk my life to get it. A cave? Or a spiritual stone?
Earth-level caves are good, but yellow-level caves can also practice cultivation. What's more, the number of earth-level caves is rare. If you want to occupy them, there will be continuous attacks and killings. Whether you can practice well is an unknown thing. .
And the spirit stones are even more ridiculous. What can today's spirit stones be exchanged for? Formation? Talisman seal? Or a spiritual weapon or magic?
These things are simply not enough for me to fight for my life! "
These words can be regarded as convincing and well-founded.
It's not that he is unmoved, but that Xianfang is too far gone.
The only thing worth looking at is an earth-level cave.
As for the source of spiritual energy, there is no need to think about it. It has become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of all monks.
And what about spirit stones? You can’t even buy what you want!
Nowadays, the productivity of Xianfang is so stretched that the output of resources is almost not proportional to the output of spiritual stones, and it is all supported by the cave.
Huang Chao stared at Gu Dan, looked at him again and again, and finally laughed and said, "You are much calmer than I thought."
"You only have one life, and it's okay to fight for your life when it's time to fight. But you can't get involved just because others are fighting for their lives. That's the same as losing your life."
Gu Dan said bluntly.
"That"
Huang Chao asked: "What if it's an opportunity to be promoted to Foundation Establishment?"
