Hearing Liang Tao's words, Zhao Shu unconsciously touched his moustache. Compared to Liang Tao, who had eagle eyebrows and falcon eyes, and a jade tree facing the wind, he probably looked older than him.
"But you still didn't say it completely." Liang Tao flicked his fingers and held a purple cloud seal in his palm: "What I throw to various places is not an ordinary talisman seal."
Zhao Shumo used the Yingxuan Zhao Scenery Technique, stared at the purple cloud seal for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Is this the true form of the talisman seal of the Dongtian General?"
"Not bad." Liang Tao nodded.
Among the immortal officials and generals in the cave, there are both disciples and successors who have been enlightened by the immortal family, and there are also heroic spirits who have been refined and improved. However, these are in the minority after all. Most of them are the pure energy of the immortal spirits that follow the laws of the cave and form seals.
made.
In many fairy scriptures and Dharma baskets, it is said that there are so many truths and saints in the cave. Zhao Shu was puzzled at first and thought, where did so many immortals come to ascend in the past?
Later, as my practice deepened, I gradually understood that the thousands of true saints, immortal officials, immortal generals, heavenly soldiers, gods, and even flying dragons, phoenixes, and rare birds and animals in the cave were probably formed by the pure energy of the immortal spirits in the cave.
These things are definitely not illusions. Lingxiao once said that the immortals who can open up the cave heaven are all due to their contribution to creation. All things in the cave sky are endlessly flowing, even if they are thousands of truths and saints formed by pure energy.
It is a person with complete intelligence.
After the death of Qingya Zhenjun, most of the fairyland collapsed. Liang Tao took over the general control of Dongtian, and naturally took over a group of Dongtian generals. According to Hengbi Gong, Liang Tao treated these Dongtian generals like slaves and horses, making them
Contaminated with the turbidity of the world, the true spirit is ignorant.
But looking back now, Liang Tao probably deliberately let the Dongtian generals be contaminated with turbidity. After the true spirit was ignorant, it naturally returned to the true form of the talisman and seal, and no longer had a clear body.
These true forms of talismans and seals can actually be regarded as part of the Qingya Fairyland. Liang Tao threw the true forms of talismans and seals of many Dongtian generals to places with abundant fresh air in various parts of Huaxu Kingdom. In addition to keeping the talismans and seals intact, he could also
Use this to deduce the mountains, rivers and earth veins, transform them into the true shape of the earth veins, and re-cultivate the earth.
However, the disadvantage of this method is that as Zhao Shu said before, it takes too long. How can it take decades for the earth to worship the gods and give birth to metamorphosis?
"No wonder when we were in Xingluo County, Chongxuan Hall sent a letter to the imperial court to have a Falu Immortal general be conferred as a local." Zhao Mian said: "You have planned to do this from the beginning, and compared with the original ones in various places,
It is more secure and reliable to control the ghosts, gods and spirits of the people and entrust them with their own land."
"Hengbi was a lay disciple of Qingya Immortal Ancestor in his early years." Liang Tao smiled slightly and said: "He failed in cultivation. Later he served as a general and fought in all directions. Unfortunately, he died during the siege of the rebels. Yiling Bumei wandered the battlefield, Qingya
The Immortal Ancestor couldn't bear it, so he was converted into a transmutation and promoted to the higher level. Hengbi received instruction and training under the Immortal Ancestor's seat, and he repeatedly went down to the world to help his descendants, accumulating merit and transfer, so he was more stubborn than other immortal officials and generals.
"
Zhao Shu couldn't help but frown. He admired Duke Hengbi's enthusiasm for protecting lives. Liang Tao had no good intentions in assigning such a Dharma Immortal General to Liang Shuo. Now he still treats him with contempt in words.
This made Zhao Shu feel quite unhappy.
To put it bluntly, even if it is one's own watchdog who has obeyed orders loyally for many years, he should not be bullied repeatedly. What's more, Hengbi Gong is a disciple of Zhenjun Qingya, and can be regarded as Liang Tao's elder according to his seniority. How could he be like this?
Disrespectful?
"What? Judging from your expression, you don't seem to be too happy about it?" Liang Tao said, "What's wrong with me using my own Dharma Immortal General to do this kind of thing?"
Zhao Shu was afraid of being noticed by Liang Tao, so he turned to say: "I want to open a altar to practice Dharma, collect plagues and cure poisons, you won't stop me, right?"
"Do you know the source of the current plague?" Liang Tao asked.
"It should be the plague evil caused by the ten witches of Fengju and Jiuli." Zhao Shu said: "The mountains and forests in the southern part of Kunlun Continent are densely covered with miasma, and the low-lying land is humid and dirty, which is easy to breed evil and plague. I read the notes of predecessors and know that
There are several large swamps in the south, where it is difficult for mortals to thrive, but they are regarded as holy places by some witches. The officials of praise have also discovered traces of big demons sneaking around. The Tianxia Dynasty sent people there several times in an attempt to open up the swamps.
, but in vain for many years.”
Liang Tao said: "The evil spirit of this plague came from the Red Plague King in Hechize. There was a great epidemic in the south of Xiong Country more than 70 years ago. It must have been the work of the Red Plague King, so that there are people in the local area who burn calamus as a gift to the plague god.
custom."
"What plague god? It's just evil spirits!" Zhao Shu snorted coldly.
"Don't underestimate this King of Scarlet Plague." Liang Tao reminded: "Back then, the Xiong Kingdom was deeply affected by this, and it was their founding emperor Shen Heng who personally held the Tong Bow Su Rui and shot an arrow in the direction of Nantu, flying over
Thousands of miles of direct attack on Hechi Ze, and this was the only way that King Chiwen was forced to dare not show his presence for many years."
Among the five countries in Kunlun Continent today, the Xiong Kingdom and the Huaxu Kingdom both claim to inherit the Tianxia orthodoxy. The Tonggong Surui controlled by the Xiong Kingdom's imperial family is originally a sacred weapon of the Tianxia Dynasty. It is said that those without imperial destiny cannot hold the bow. In the past,
The emperor slayed the dragon in a battle, the Tong Bow slayed the evil dragon, and the Sword Immortal slayed the Xuanju, which shows how extraordinary this artifact is.
"The founding emperor of the Xiong Kingdom borrowed the power of Tong Gong Su Rui, but he still couldn't kill the King of Red Plague?" Zhao Shu asked in surprise: "Is it possible that this evil spirit is more powerful than the Xuan Ming Evil Dragon?"
"How can such a comparison be made?" Liang Tao chuckled and shook his head: "My cultivation and magic power are naturally higher than yours, but you have unique insights into rituals and rituals. Do you understand this?"
"Evil gods are at work, witches and blessings are accomplices, and the poison is endless." Zhao Shu frowned and said: "Open an altar to practice magic, collect plagues and cure poisons, but ultimately treat the symptoms but not the root cause. The power of Tong Gong Su Yuan's divine power is also limited. If we want to stop the growth and recurrence of these evil spirits,
Come, we must drain the ponds and reclaim the great swamps. This requires the joint efforts of tens of millions of people, and cannot be solved by a few or two experts from the immortal family."
Liang Tao stared at Zhao Shu closely. He felt uncomfortable being stared at, so he asked: "What? Am I wrong?"
"I just thought of something interesting." Liang Tao looked back at the map of counties and counties, pointed at Tujiang River flowing through Dantu County, and said, "Do you know why Tujiang River has this name?"
"The tidal flats on both sides of the strait stretch out. I discovered it when I camped along the river." Zhao Shu replied.
"Fortunately, you took back Dantu County during the dry season in winter. Otherwise, when the summer floods come, you won't be able to camp along the river." Liang Tao said with a smile: "At the beginning of the founding of Huaxu, the tidal flats along the Tujiang River were all fertile soil.
, the local people built embankments and polders and vigorously cultivated land. In the following years, there were continuous bumper harvests.
As a result, a flood destroyed the fields, and hundreds of thousands of people were destroyed and displaced. They starved to death everywhere, and their bones were everywhere. This is what I saw when I patrolled the border with my sword."
Zhao Shu didn't answer, and Liang Tao knocked on the map: "Do you understand? Being greedy for small temporary profits, despising nature, and trying to force others will lead to disasters and destruction in a matter of days. Sometimes people fail not because they did something wrong.
Instead, he failed because he did the right thing, and his failure was even more tragic and painful!"
"Master National Preceptor." Zhao Shu was now much calmer: "Your great country in the world may be despising nature and trying to force it."
Liang Tao raised his eagle eyebrows and suddenly laughed: "That's right, I'm really not qualified to criticize you on this matter. But your ambition may not be smaller than mine."
Zhao Shu didn't want to answer the conversation and just put away the books on his desk. Liang Tao continued: "You are now being targeted by the gods of the South. Now the ten witches of Fengju are just borrowing the magic power of King Chiwen, but you want to practice the law."
Aren't you afraid of retaliation when you are collecting the plague?"
"So I need a magic weapon to protect the altar." Zhao Shu said.
"What magic weapon?" Liang Tao asked.
"Nine Heavens Cloud Platform." Zhao Shu said bluntly: "I have thought about it over and over again, and the barrier I set up alone is not enough to protect the altar and myself. And the gods of the Southern Lands have to find me accurately from thousands of miles away.
, the only way must be to take advantage of the time when I am practicing the law, and the qi will connect with the sky and the earth to be able to pinpoint my location."
Zhao Shu spent these days recovering from his injuries, but it was not that he did not learn lessons. His initial doubt was how the gods of Nantu outside Dantu County dealt with him? If they could really stare him to death with a casual glance, why not stand apart from him?
Thousands of miles away, just curse Zhao Shu to death?
Later, Sheluo Mandrill's body was dissected and carefully examined, and Zhao Shui roughly determined that although the gods of Nantu can bestow divine power on witches, this method is not done out of thin air. It must first infect the meridians through some kind of Qi machine, or
Simply take the medicine that condenses the divine power, so as to connect the soul of the witch with divine power.
But Zhao Shu had nothing to do with the gods of Nantu. Later, Sheluo Mandrill was killed in an ambush, and the Great White Horse God behind him could not be saved. In addition to hastily explaining the incident, it is more likely that the gods of Nantu were not able to survive after a few days.
Qianli kills enemies at will.
The only explanation that can be given is that when Zhao Shu opened the altar to practice the Dharma, the changes in the qi of the heaven and earth were particularly intense. The gods of the southern soil group sensed the changes in the qi, and naturally discovered the direction of Zhao Shu.
When he went to the altar to perform the Dharma, Zhao Shui was particularly conspicuous to the demons and ghosts. The gods of the Nantu group sensed the energy, traced the source, and immediately took action against Zhao Shui.
Later, when a large mandala was set up to contain the plague and treat the poison, there would definitely be a lot of noise. The gods of the Southern Lands would never sit back and watch Zhao Shu complete his practice. He had to think about countermeasures.
In fact, Zhao Shu originally wanted to use the ground around Jianjia Pass to set up the Enlightenment Nine Gate Formation, but now that Liang Tao came to visit, he asked for the Jiutian Yuntai without hesitation.
"You really don't regard yourself as an outsider." Liang Tao suddenly asked: "Did you covet Liang Shuo when you were in Xingluo County?"
"What do you mean by this?" Zhao Shu pretended not to understand.
"Liang Shuo recommended you to me at the beginning. With his temperament, I think you must have lobbied a lot in front of him." Liang Tao said: "And with your background in Huaiying Hall, there is no reason to show sincerity to Liang Shuo. I think so.
You are eyeing Liang Shuo and want to take the opportunity to get something from him."
"If the eldest son of an immortal family has the opportunity to please and show his sincerity, who wouldn't be happy?" Zhao Shu said with a helpless smile: "Master Imperial Master, I am not from a high-ranking family. The title of "Praise Officer" seems to be a brilliant one.
, it can be said that after breaking through the sky, I am just a poor academic who buried his head in old papers. Fortunately, Xingluo County allowed me to show off my skills, and I was appreciated by the Imperial Master."
Liang Tao stared at Zhao Shu, not knowing what he wanted to see. Then he raised one hand and grasped it out of thin air. A snow-white jade pendant fell into his palm. He handed it to Zhao Shu and said, "Let me state in advance that Jiutian Yuntai is only for loan to you."
.”
Zhao Shu took the jade pendant, and the cloud patterns on it seemed to be rolling endlessly. He concentrated on it, as if he was in the sea of tumbling clouds, which was very mysterious.
"Is this the Jiutian Yuntai?" Zhao Shu pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Where is the golden-domed palace above?"
"That is not part of the Jiutian Yuntai." Liang Tao said bluntly: "The Jiutian Yuntai, as the name suggests, is just a cloud platform. In the past, Qingya Immortal Ancestor flew to and fro in the sky, and the cirrus clouds under his feet were influenced by the immortal magic for a long time, and the cumulus clouds became
The sky, the condensed emptiness, is the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace."
Under Lingxiao's prompting, Zhao Shu had already known the mystery of the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace, but now he pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
"The Nine Heavens Cloud Platform, the Great Mirror of the Ming Dynasty, the Immortal General Dharma... the inheritance left to you by True Lord Qingya is really rich." Zhao Shu sighed.
"Since you have understood the "Nine Heavens Purple Mantra", you don't need me to teach you how to use the Nine Heavens Yuntai." Liang Tao was about to leave with his hands behind his back.
"Wait a minute, you came to Jianjia Pass in person. Could it be that the seal of Jiaohui Cave is about to collapse?" Zhao Shu called Liang Tao.
"You don't have to worry about it anymore. You're so distracted and busy, so be careful not to worry about one thing or another." Liang Tao opened the door with a flick of his sleeves, and his figure gradually disappeared.
"Pretending." Zhao Shu cursed in his mind and closed the door again.
Looking at the jade pendant in his hand, Zhao Shu couldn't help but sigh: "The True Essence Lock has not been found for a long time. As a result, Jieyoujue, Jiutian Yuntai, and the magic weapons of the Immortal Family were taken out as if they were free. No wonder Mr. Huaiming ridiculed me.
Liang Tao’s biological son."
Lingxiao said: "Liang Tao has a deep understanding of the principle that if you want to take something, you must give it first. Compared with the Taoist countries in the world, the magic weapon of the Immortal family is not something that cannot be discarded."
"Whether the Dao Kingdom in the human world... can be achieved or not is a matter of debate." Zhao Shu sighed and said, "Is it really an attempt to force it?"
"What are you talking about?" Lingxiao asked: "Are you talking about building fields on both sides of Tu Shui? Or are you planning to drain the Jiechi Lake to eliminate the plague god? Or is it a Taoist kingdom on earth?"
"It's all, not entirely." Zhao Shu said: "The experience in the past few years has made me more and more sophisticated, but I found that helping people and benefiting the public is very difficult. Once
When put into practice, they often constrain themselves.”
"This has been the case throughout the ages." Lingxiao's tone did not fluctuate: "Everything you do has advantages and disadvantages. If you gain today, you will have to pay the price tomorrow. How can we take advantage of it and have it last forever?
You keep talking about the common people, but you don't know that people's circumstances are different, and what they want and want are naturally very different. What you like is what I hate. This is normal.
Looking at the world, tribes and tribes thrive in different regions. One cultivates acres while another grazes livestock. Their habitats are completely different. Their food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all different. So why should we measure right and wrong with the same moral character?"
Zhao Miao was speechless, and Lingxiao continued: "It is indeed not something that the Sanliang Immortal Family can do to benefit the common people and benefit the public. In this case, you should not make rash judgments based on your own selfish thoughts. How do you know the so-called benefits?
If you lift it, won’t it turn into disaster in an instant?”
