In the Dragon and Tiger Hall, the chime sounded.
National Master Li Longzen was sitting behind the green gauze tent. There were three disciples meditating outside the tent. At this time, they all slowly opened their eyes.
"Although I have many disciples, the three of you are the most effective after all." Li Longchan said leisurely: "Du Yan was the first to get started and has enough talent. The only thing that can limit you from taking another step forward is a Zen Heart. Self-centered Zen, you have only cultivated the Zen mind, but you have not yet fully understood the Zen mind.” Du Yan, who was dark-skinned and tall and thin outside the tent, nodded slightly and listened respectfully. .
"Lei Zhen is strong enough, but his wisdom is not enough, so I teach you to combine martial arts and practice the Zen of combining north and south. But if you want to make further progress, you need to increase your wisdom and enlightenment." Li Longchan continued.
The bald Lei Zhen opposite scratched his head, listened for a moment, and finally asked: "What do you mean?"
Liu Deng'er next to him smiled softly, while Du Yan whispered Said: "Master said you are stupid and need to increase your wisdom."
"Huh?" Lei Zhen frowned in surprise.
Immediately afterwards, Li Longchan said: "Deng'er's situation is exactly the opposite of Lei Zhen's. He needs to think more and you need to think less. You are very bright and intelligent, but you are easily tired by it, thinking too much, and your Zen mind Don’t hold on.”
Liu Deng'er, who had her hair tied up and a demure expression, also nodded slightly, "Disciple, accept the instruction."
Li Longchan said again: "The Lotus Flower Incense is about to be promoted outside the capital of the gods. The three of you... Just work harder and travel around for the master. Once the Tongtian Tower is built, it will be completed and the Longhu Hall will be honored for the next hundred years. "
"Master Liu Deng'er. Hu Er asked, "Disciple, there is something unclear."
"What's the matter?" Li Longchan looked at her.
Liu Deng'er asked: "Master has obtained the incense method, and he can obviously become a god on his own. Why do you want to dedicate this method to Your Majesty?"
It was a bit treacherous for her to ask this, but in this quiet room, no one who heard it would find it strange.
Li Longchan was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Do you know why your majesty trusts me?"
"Master presented immortal seeds to your majesty back then to prolong his life. This was a life-saving grace. , Your Majesty will naturally trust you." This time it was Du Yan who answered.
Li Longchan slowly narrated: "I was not tolerated by the old school of Buddhism in my early years. It was only by creating my own true Zen that I found a way. After becoming a national teacher, the world worshiped Buddhism, and I became a The Taoist sect will not tolerate me. As for the Confucian scribes, they regard me as a great harm to the world because of Longhutang’s so-called deception.” That’s our lineage.”
"But it is precisely because of this that in your Majesty's eyes, I am a trustworthy person. If I had relied on any of them, I would not be in the position I am today, because your Majesty knows that I have no one else except him. Backer."
"How can you get the emperor's respect for more than ten years with just a life-saving favor?"
"This is called a lonely minister in the court, and he is the emperor's favorite one. Like a minister. And I can be regarded as a solitary cultivator in the world of Jiuzhou. I have no fellow disciples and no top disciples to accompany me. That is why I am honored as a national master and have the dignity I have today. We are in this situation, isolated and helpless."
"Master means..." Liu Deng'er speculated: "Your Majesty values us because of the situation where the three religions of Longhu Hall are enemies. If you try to use incense. If you become a god, will the practitioners of the three religions block it?"
"Yes." Li Longchan nodded and said: "There will be a new fairyland in the world. I want to hide this from the three above. It’s really difficult. It’s impossible for anyone to do it before getting the support of one of them. Otherwise, if anyone makes a slight move, the new saint will be killed on the eve of promotion.”
"And for me, it is almost impossible."
"It seems that this method is to make a wedding dress for His Majesty, but in fact, if this dress is worn on me, it will become a mourning dress."
< br>In the beast's mouth copper furnace, wisps of green smoke rose, and Li Longchan's disheveled hair flickered.
He has a clear understanding of his situation. If Chen Su is the knife that Liang Fuguo asked to go down the mountain, then how can he, Longhutang, not be the knife that Mu Beidi brought up?
Preaching in the human world exists specifically to fight against the Qi practitioners of the three religions.
The power of Longhutang has been booming in recent years, and it seems to have millions of followers in Kyushu. However, this is all the result of the support of the imperial court and can be withdrawn at any time.
As for the real core strength, he knew that the Yinma Supervisor had been keeping a close eye on him, so he had never recruited a subordinate who had even reached the master level.
Over the years, he has long been familiar with Mu Bei Emperor's methods. This emperor never restrains anyone when he drives him to do things. He can do whatever he asks you to do, so his important ministers seem to be personal. A man in charge of power.
But once there is an act that exceeds the rules, the thunder will come down immediately, and there will be no room for recovery.
Precisely because there are ministers of dragon and tiger in the court, no one can cover the sky with one hand. As long as Emperor Mubei nods, anyone can die.
If he wanted to secretly gather the power of incense without telling Mu Beidi, then once the matter was revealed and he, who was already isolated and helpless, lost the only shelter above his head, the best outcome would be to be instantly suppressed by Master Zhang Xuan.
But...
Li Longchan restrained his desires and dedicated this incense and wish to Emperor Mubei.
Then he would be invincible in the Yin Dynasty from then on.
He has renewed the life of the emperor twice, and from now on he will be in charge of the Tower of Babel, the center of incense. In this dynasty, no one can shake him.
That's right.
When the Babel Tower was first built, it was to pray for Emperor Mubei and gather the will of the people.
He didn’t lie to anyone, it’s just that many people didn’t believe him and didn’t understand his ways.
“Only my true Zen is for me, for all sentient beings, and for others.” Li Longchan finally whispered, “This is accomplished, only I am undefeated.”
…… After a while, the three disciples walked out of the Zen room side by side.
After leaving the courtyard, Lei Zhen said: "What do you think of what Master just said?"
Du Jian replied: "Master's plan is far-reaching, and we are beyond our reach. Just act according to his orders."
Liu Deng'er nodded and said, "Master has been standing in the court for more than ten years. He has his own plans. How can we, as disciples, see through them all? "
“No.” Lei Zhen touched his head and asked, “I want to ask, do you also think I’m stupid?”
"..." Du Yan and Liu Deng'er both fell silent for a moment.
Immediately, Du Yan suddenly asked: "Today is the first day of the Caiyi Festival celebration. Third Junior Sister, do you want to go shopping?"
Liu Deng'er happily agreed: "Okay."
Lei Zhen was startled, "No, you guys?"
......
"Lao Deng, when did you come?" Wang Rulin rushed up to greet Deng Yunzi and said with a smile: "Why didn't you come to Longyuan City to come and catch up with your junior brother?"
"Huh." Dengyunzi flicked his sleeves and half turned around, "I have nothing to talk about with you."
"What's the matter?" Wang Rulin moved to the front of him again and said with a smile: "Still Because last time I asked you to take me to see Master Zhangxuan, saying that I wanted to return to Xuanmen, but I picked up two golden orchids and ran away. Are you embarrassed to mention it?”
“Hi.” Wang Rulin said: “I want to see Master Zhangxuan for the purpose of the golden orchid, so I will get it directly, which saves us both time and money. What a good thing to waste his time.”
"You..." Dengyunzi pointed at him, held it in for a long time, and said: "It's unfortunate that this shameless person appeared in our school. Don't call me senior brother in the future!"
"I didn't call you either. "Why don't I call you Lao Deng?" Wang Rulin spread his hands in confusion.
Deng Yunzi was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, turned around and looked at Wen Yifan, "Let's go."
"Old Deng!" Wang Rulin greeted: "I came here to find my apprentice. Those of you who are going to the Colorful Clothes Festival, do you want to go shopping together? We, the orthodox members of the Sword Sect, rarely get together."
Deng Yunzi ignored it and just said to Wen Yifan: " There are so many people on the streets these days, so don’t go out yet, rest at home, especially avoid interacting with their masters and disciples.”
Liang Yue blinked, "Huh?"
Why is there anything about me in there?
Wen Yifan quietly turned around and looked at him, both of them looking a little helpless.
After Deng Yunzi and Wen Yifan left, Wang Rulin shook his head and sighed: "Lao Deng is too rigid. Then I stole some golden orchids to cultivate talents for the Yujian lineage, how can I still hold a grudge? Did you fall in love with me?"
Liang Yue said weakly, "It's not all my fault..."
"Of course, I am also responsible." Wang Rulin said: "The problem is that my reputation was a bit bad before. Without his guidance, I might not be able to go up to Sanqing Mountain, so I asked him for help."
It seems like that. It's like your reputation now.
Liang Yuesan smiled and said: "Then we are going to the Colorful Clothes Festival now?"
"That's right, business is important." Wang Rulin turned his eyes and suddenly saw someone sitting in the hall. Xue Baizhi immediately rushed over again and shouted: "Senior Xue! I am Xiao Wang, do you remember? The spiritual plant I asked you for last time..."
Xue Baizhi did not reply. , but turned over his sleeves, bursting into a cloud of colored mist, and the whole person disappeared in an instant.
Liang Yue finally understood that in the Xuanmen orthodoxy, Chen Su was not very strict about rules and could still hang out with his master. The rest of the Xuanmen orthodox practitioners really didn't dare to let him get any closer.
The title of Shame of Xuanmen is really correct.
"Hi." Wang Rulin rolled up his sleeves angrily, "Senior Xue also has something to do, so let's go."
It was almost evening at this time, and I couldn't wait any longer. The girls have already come to play in the streets wearing colorful clothes and holding bright lights. The parade jointly invited by the merchants has not yet set off, and there are already many people waiting on both sides of Tianjie.
The flying flowers in the shop will not appear until midnight, that is, on the second day, and it is not yet time to fight for them. But the young warriors on the street are already gearing up and can't wait to show off their skills.
The master and apprentice left Zhuxie Yamen, but before they had gone far, they suddenly heard the sound of a cannon.
Bang!
A tall cart, pulled by several horses and carrying various acrobatic performers, started from the North City and marched through Tianjie with blazing fire.
The Caiyi Festival celebration has begun!
Good morning.
It was a bit scary to wake up in the morning. My parents lost their car keys yesterday and searched around but couldn't find them.
This morning I went to find that the car had been overturned. There was nothing in it, so it didn’t matter, but there was a knife inside, which was a bit scary.
The key should have been left near the car and picked up by someone. Later, they opened it and put a knife in it. I don’t know what it was for. The police were called, but they took away the knife when they came and didn't check anything else. I don't know if there will be any results.
