Chapter 91: Understanding the Past, Knowing the Coming One
"Past, future..."
Sitting on the bullock cart, Chen Cuo closed his eyes and meditated. The Taoist spiritual light in his heart became more and more intense, and it kept bursting out, and it was already somewhat uncontrollable.
Correspondingly, a series of insights emerged one after another, lingering in my heart.
When he arrived at the mansion, Chen Cuo went straight to the study and ordered: "No matter what happens, don't disturb me. Talk to me again when I come out."
"Jun Hou..." Chen Hai obviously had something to say, but looking at Chen Cuo's expression, he swallowed his words back and nodded in agreement.
When Chen Cuo entered the room and sat down, he couldn't help but sigh: "The Hou family is certainly a wealthy family with all kinds of money and expenses. The Chen family is also a royal family of a country, and there is always no shortage of power, wealth, and wealth. But the worldly affairs are endless, even if they can't disturb the Taoism,
The heart is also involved in the energy. When things are over here, I have to find an immortal sect to cultivate quietly. Otherwise, how can I find immortality after the foundation of Taoism?"
After thinking about it, he and the Taoist in his heart all sat up cross-legged, with their five hearts raised to the sky, no longer suppressing the aura.
In the blink of an eye, the aura covered the Taoist in his heart, bursting with brilliance. In the left and right palms, there was a ball of brilliance brewing, shrinking and expanding endlessly.
His whole body became silent, like a stone sculpture.

"In the past, if I had summoned Erlang, he would never have been in such a situation. He didn't know that the matter was urgent and thought he had King Ancheng's support, but the right-hand man of Guiyang County Duke was dead. This is not a trivial matter! Isn't it?
Can you take it easy?"
In the Prince of Nankang's palace, Chen's mother got the news when her second son arrived home, but when she saw him, he didn't come over to discuss countermeasures, so she couldn't help but complain.
Zhang Ju, who was sitting opposite, did not dare to respond rashly.
"Why, are you even afraid of him?" Mother Chen sighed, and without waiting for the other party to explain, she said: "No need to say more, Chen He also persuaded me just now, saying that Erlang should have countermeasures, so he is confident."
Chen He wanted to speak.
Chen's mother said: "Okay, the day King An Cheng came over, he already hinted that Erlang would be of great use, but Hou Xiao died suddenly. If Hou Andu really made a move, Da Lang is in the south now.
Erlang hasn't really gained momentum yet, so how can he resist even if King Ancheng protects him? Ju'er, you have a lot of friends, and I heard that you even visited the Duke of Guiyang. If the situation is really bad, can you find someone to smooth things over?
two?"
Zhang Ju looked embarrassed. He was almost isolated in the office. How could he find foreign help?
When Chen's mother saw his appearance, she sighed repeatedly.
At this time, a servant suddenly came over and reported, "Mistress, the two immortals from Dingxin Sect are back."
Chen's mother was overjoyed when she heard this, but Zhang Ju was a little surprised. After asking, he found out that two Taoists were staying in the house.
"The Immortal Chief has been busy these days and doesn't come here very often." Mother Chen stood up hurriedly and said as she walked: "The Immortal Sect is aloof from other things. If we can help, even the Duke of Guiyang should restrain himself a bit.
"
Zhang Ju followed closely behind.
But when he saw the two Taoists, Zhou Youzi knew that Chen Cuo had returned to the Hou Mansion. He was immediately overjoyed and said, "Since the Lord is here, the two Taoists should pay a visit."
Mother Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "If he knew that the two immortal elders wanted to see him, he would be happy, but they are elders, so he should be allowed to come and pay homage to them tomorrow."
"To show sincerity," Yun Miaozi shook his head and said sternly, "I'd better wait and visit."
"Ah, this..." Mother Chen's eyes widened, wondering in her heart. In her opinion, how could a god-like figure visit her Erlang?
But seeing the expressions of the two Taoists, he finally nodded in agreement and ordered Chen He to lead them to the Hou Mansion.
Chen He was also in a daze for a while.
Not long ago, the Taoist priest Zhou Youzi came to visit. He said a few words outside the door because his second young master came a little late. Now he is leading the Taoist priest, together with his senior brother, to visit his young master. .
Thinking of the many changes in these days, Chen He secretly thought.
"It's definitely different from the past."
.
.
"Now, it's really time to consider taking action."
In the brightly lit hall, King An Cheng looked at the young man in front of him with a smile on his face and asked: "Speaking of which, you have also met Fang Qing, right? How about it?"
This young man is none other than Shen Zunli.
"Indeed...it is indeed very close to others. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a great person in this world." Shen Zunli's expression became a little embarrassed, and he changed the subject, "It's just that this monarch looked at his head buried in a sea of books." , but the most conspicuous thing in front of me is the "New Odes of Yutai", which makes people confused."
King An Cheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed. After a while, he said: "This shows that he is not a heartless person, but hearing you say that, he should have suffered a loss."
Shen Zunli became more and more embarrassed, but he said to himself: "It is a minor offense for monks to abandon their wives and children in order to seek Taoism. There are also those who kill their wives and daughters in order to cut off secular ties. The Marquis of Linru County is somewhat I'm worried that one day he will abandon the worldly world and seek the path to immortality. Once this helper leaves, things with Hou Andu will be delayed again."
King An Cheng nodded and said: "This is also something that I am worried about, but judging from your words, you also recognize Fang Qing's cultivation. So what do you think is possible if he takes action and you are there to help him?" Are you sure you can kill Hou Andu?"
Shen Zunli pondered for a moment, shook his head slightly, and said: "It's hard to say. Putting aside Hou Andu's minions, looking at his martial arts alone, he is already at the pinnacle of the second level of martial arts. His boxing intention is perfect, and his thunderous martial arts is the most powerful. , combined with the magical power of martial arts, even if you are facing two second-level monks, you will not fall behind! After all, warriors are good at fighting, and the monks' martial arts are incidental to the pursuit of Tao."
When King An Cheng heard this, he sighed: "This is indeed the problem. It is a pity that the people with the blood of the true dragon, except Fang Qing, do not have a second Taoist realm. You are special, with both civil and military cultivation, you can compete with the second Taoist realm." Second realm!”
"Martial arts and Confucianism are both incomplete paths. The way forward is cut off and immortality is hard to come by. Otherwise, it would be difficult for me to calm down and stay in the imperial city." Shen Zunli paused and continued, "The Marquis of Linru County used to hide his power and bide his time. Now, You are emerging, but if you insist on pursuing immortality in the future, you will have to leave the cage sooner or later."
"The most important thing is the present moment," King An Cheng pointed out, "We really can't delay it any longer!"
.
.
"In the future, the stability of our Hou family will depend on you!"
In the dark cellar, Hou Andu laughed heartily and said: "Take off your human body and become a god. From now on, you will be the heroic spirit of our Hou family, immortal!"
Ahead, a figure slowly stood up from the dark pool, and the black water flowed down. The figure also became unstable with the waves of water, sometimes transparent, sometimes solid.
Behind, a graceful figure shrouded in black gauze took two steps closer and said in a clear but solemn voice: "Becoming a god after death and taking advantage of the underworld's loopholes cannot lead to immortality in one step. It is difficult to be immortal. Immortality is not that simple. No matter which sect or deity it is, if you want to live forever, it must be within the limit of lifespan, and your life and life must be unified. A person may enter the Tao in one year and be established in the Tao in ten years, but it is difficult to live forever in a lifetime!"
Hou Andu looked surprised and said: "With so many people thinking, it is difficult to induce birth? He is already a god, so he is not restricted by flesh and blood, right?"
"Becoming a god in the flesh does not take off the body, it just transforms," the woman in black veil shook her head and said lightly, "Instead of thinking about immortality, it is better to derive innate magical powers first."
"Mystical powers are already being derived!"
In the pool, the figure gradually solidified.
"My magical power has been brewing, my hatred is strong, and my heart is filled with plague..." He said bitterly, with dark ripples emanating from his body.
But suddenly, a bit of fire appeared, and he groaned, his momentum reduced a lot.
The woman in black gauze said: "The fire poison in you is like a gangrene attached to the bones. Even if you reincarnate as a god, you can't eradicate it. You should be more careful! As for the derivation of magical powers, there is no need to be arrogant. The more powerful the magical powers are, the more powerful they are.
It is difficult to take shape and often takes a long time to brew. It is the person who was born with supernatural powers in ancient times. When they are born with supernatural powers, they must first be cultivated in the mother's womb. Some are even conceived for three years and six months..."
The figure in the pool fell silent.
"That's enough!" Hou Andu suddenly burst into laughter, "Hou Xiao, when your god's position is stable, first capture and refine Chen Fangqing, take out the road sign and read it to people, sooner or later he will live forever!"
.
.
"If the past and future are determined, what changes is the present."
In the study room of the Hou Mansion, Chen Cuo suddenly opened his eyes, and the whole room was suddenly filled with spiritual light. As soon as he thought about it, the sixty-four gilded characters on the head of the Taoist priest in his heart bloomed with brilliance. He indulged in the sea of books for three days, and condensed the brilliance of the human thoughts.
Spread out and fill the halls of your heart.
"It's time to achieve magical powers!"
As the thought fell, light converged on Chen Cuo's left and right sides.
