A chariot with two oxen is flying through the sky, its wheels are racing, and its hooves are riding on the clouds. A giant man on the car is wearing heavy armor, with only a pair of wide, angry eyes visible from all over his body. He holds a golden ring and a red rope bridle in one hand, and a dragon divination in the other.
The word halberd.
The giant man shouted like thunder, waved his halberd, and the dragon swung its tail in mid-air and swept towards a monk in white.
The white-clothed monk had great magical power. He took advantage of the situation and swung away, offering a jade vase. The ocean water poured out, covering several acres in an instant, and pressed towards the giant man.
"Little tricks!"
The giant man pulled the bridle rope, without dodging or dodging, and the flood tide came straight up towards the sky. The big halberd in his hand stabbed forward, and suddenly became longer, like a magic ruler measuring the sky, and penetrated into the flood tide in one fell swoop.
"break!"
The euphorbia entered the flood, and the giant man rose up with astonishing strength. Several acres of the flood were cut through, but the monk in white was nowhere to be seen.
The separated flood tide turned into solid ice in an instant, and two icebergs suddenly closed together in mid-air, trying to crush the giant man and the two-oxen chariot together.
But the giant man didn't panic at all. The big halberd in his hand turned from strong to soft, and turned into a dragon, circling around the two-oxen chariot. Wherever it passed, there was a huge force. Only a series of shattering sounds were heard, and the two chariots
The iceberg was smashed into countless ice shards of various sizes by the dragon, and they fell towards the ground, like a dense hailstorm.
"Fang Yuanzi, what other tricks do you have? You might as well show them all!" The halberd flew back into his hand, and the giant man looked into the distance. He saw the monk in white looking towards the south with a solemn expression.
Just as the giant man was about to make a move, the monk in white turned his head and snorted: "Your country of Huaxu actually took in such a praise officer? It really surprises me."
"Praise officer?" The giant man didn't know why, but he also sensed a sharp change in energy, and an unusual blood-red color appeared in the southern sky, like the sunset.
"Huh? Want to leave?!" The giant man noticed that Fang Yuanzi was flying away, and was about to pursue him when the other party came from a distance and said: "Liang Bao, instead of rushing to fight, it is better to think carefully about such a person who has become a master of the law.
Can the praise officer of creation tolerate your brother?"
The giant man was silent for a moment, then snorted coldly, pulled the bridle, and the two-oxen chariot sped towards Juihong Pass on the ground with fire and flames.
When the chariot landed in front of the general's mansion, a group of generals came forward one after another. Liang Xiao held a bloody halberd in hand and asked anxiously: "General, that Fang Yuanzi retreated on his own initiative? What happened?"
Liang Bao got off the chariot and asked, "Something big happened in the south, didn't you sense it?"
The generals looked at each other, and Liang Xiao said: "I vaguely noticed the changes in the air, and thought it was the wind and rain... The recent major events in the south are nothing more than the battle between Wu Kui Army and Jiuli Kingdom. Could there be an unexpected change?"
Liang Bao snorted coldly: "The Huaxu Kingdom has a peerless master who even fought with the gods of the Southern Lands from afar."
"Isn't it the first one?" Liang Xiao asked.
"Confused! Can I not tell the difference if my brother takes action?" Liang Bao waved away everyone: "You continue to guard everywhere. Since Fang Yuanzi was in danger personally, maybe it was to cover the infiltration of spies. Now Wu Kui's army is in the south with Jiu
When the Li Kingdom is at war, we must not be careless in resisting the Hong Pass!"
All the soldiers retired one after another, and Liang Bao returned to the secret room of the mansion and activated the four-point mirror. After a while, Liang Tao's face appeared in the mirror.
"Brother! What happened at Jianjia Pass?" Liang Bao asked impatiently: "I sensed a sudden change in the weather in the south, and even the sky changed color!"
Liang Tao smiled faintly, his expression as usual: "It's no big deal for a kid to break a thief."
Liang Bao didn't understand. After thinking about it, he didn't know which young disciple of the Liang family in Yongjia could stir up the turmoil and change the color of the world.
"Just now, Fang Yuanzi, one of the Four Immortal Dukes of the Xiong Kingdom, came to test him. I fought with him a few times. Before he left, he said that there was a praise officer in Huaxu State." Liang Bao was puzzled: "The last batch of praise officers back then.
, didn’t they all die in the emperor’s capital in order to contain Xuan Ju? When did Huaxu Kingdom have such a powerful person?”
"Do you still remember Zhao Shu?"
"Is it him?" Liang Bao's face was covered by the iron helmet, and only a trace of surprise could be seen from his eyes: "Liang Xiao once told me that this person is quite capable. Brother, you seem to be interested in cultivating him?"
"The great plan of the Taoist state in the human world falls on this person." Liang Tao said: "Now that the south is agitated, it is he who is opening the altar to practice the Dharma."
Liang Bao was stunned: "Impossible! Liang Xiao said that his cultivation level is no more than condensing black beads, how can he have such magical power?"
"It is natural that ordinary rituals cannot be done." Liang Tao explained: "In the past, the ceremonial officials of the Tianxia Dynasty were called the heaven and earth to establish the heart. Their rituals and rituals did not rely on the power of immortal generals, but tried to measure, establish principles, and clarify the rules.
Order, and thus perform the law on behalf of Heaven.
Although Tianxia has died, the rituals of the Zanli officer still exist. Moreover, the true forms of the talismans and seals I had cast in several counties in the south are now connected by him, resetting the rules and regulations between heaven and earth, and the merits of the rituals.
Nature has great power."
Liang Bao couldn't help but worry: "Brother, is Zhao Shu really trustworthy?"
Liang Tao narrowed his eyes and asked, "Did Fang Yuanzi say something?"
"Yes... he said that as a tribute officer, Zhao Shu may not be able to tolerate you, big brother." Liang Bao did not hide anything, but he was still worried: "But Zhao Shu was born in the Huaiying Hall, who knows that he is not secretly plotting.
?”
Liang Tao said: "Don't worry, how can I be unprepared? Behind Zhao Shu, there may be an expert from the Xian family secretly fueling the fire, and I have been testing him."
"Do you know the origin of the other party?" Liang Bao asked.
"It should be a certain ancient immortal family. It's hard to figure out who it is." Liang Tao frowned slightly: "I suspect that even Zhao Shu himself doesn't know the origin of the immortal family behind him."
"If that's the case, why are you keeping Zhao Shu?" Liang Bao said simply: "I will go and capture him personally, and use the soul hook directly to make him confess all the rituals and rituals he knows!"
Liang Tao shook his head and said: "No, the rituals and rituals of praising the officials cannot be mastered just by ordinary study. Especially as Zhao Shu's cultivation level improves, his harmony with the laws of heaven and earth will become deeper. Not to mention whether a magic weapon like the soul-stirring rope can be asked
If you come up with the corresponding thing, I'm afraid that when you do it, there will be backlash immediately."
Liang Bao was puzzled: "Can't you even do it, big brother?"
"I don't plan to take this risk." Liang Tao said: "You may not know it yet, but the gods of Nantu have already taken advantage of Zhao Shu's opening of the altar to practice magic. They teamed up to summon a star from the sky and planned to kill Zhao Shu.
It was destroyed together with the entire Jianjia Pass. As a result, the Buxing star rushed back and fell directly into the depths."
Liang Bao was speechless for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he asked: "With Zhao Shu's cultivation level, he can actually compete with the gods of the southern lands by relying on rituals and rituals? How is this possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Liang Tao had an ordinary look on his face and said with a smile: "I always told you to read more books before, but you didn't listen. The books in the library mention the deeds of the predecessors and the praise officer. I really want to tell you personally.
In terms of cultivation, many of the Xia dynasty's ceremonial officials were not necessarily better than Zhao Shu, but with their rituals and legal services, they were able to traverse the heavens and the earth and subdue all the gods.
From the moment Zhao Shu ascended the altar, he was no longer alone. The laws of heaven and earth were like the laws and regulations on the record. The gods of the Southern Lands did not know their own strength and wanted to offend the altar, which was destined to lead to disaster. This was not something that Zhao Shu could even do on his own.
decided."
"I'm always worried that such powerful rituals and rituals are in the hands of others," Liang Bao said.
Liang Tao smiled and said: "Zhao Shu is a little thoughtful, but he is also deeply shackled by hypocrisy and righteousness, and he is naive and childish. As long as he is allowed to use his talents and entertain himself, it is not difficult to control this kind of person. Yang Jingxi's
This is what small country owners do too."
…
Dongshengdu, Qintiantai.
"The comets are flowing, and the sky is as red as blood. This is the disaster of war." Xin Taicheng looked at the southern sky with a complicated expression.
"Now that the two countries are at war outside the Jianjia Pass, it will naturally be a disaster." The leader of the country flicked his sleeves: "But I want to know what is happening now."
Xin Taicheng bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this scene is the demon god of the southern land instigating turbid energy, going against the heavens, causing the stars to lose their speed, and attracting the comets. Ordinarily, such disasters should attack the demon gods directly, but they were deceived.
Heaven's secret caused the star to fall sideways and head towards Jianjia Pass."
Madam Zhu Zi, who was next to the king, could not help but look slightly shocked: "With such a star falling, wouldn't Jianjia Pass -"
"Don't worry, Madam Zhuzi." Xin Taicheng said quickly: "I have been looking forward to it for a long time and found out that Marquis Zhenming is now opening an altar in Jianjia Pass to practice Dharma. The demon god of the South Earth invited Buxing to fail to fall to Jianjia Pass, but counterattacked back. Now.
The blood-red sky is caused by the star falling deep into the southern soil and causing the smoke and dust to rise into the sky."
After hearing this, the king's expression became solemn and he remained silent for a long time.
"Zhao Miao?" Mrs. Zhu Zi exclaimed: "I have heard that this son is proficient in rituals and rituals, but he can actually resist the many demon gods in the south with his own strength?"
Xin Taicheng reminded: "When the Divine Sword of Xingluo County was born, wasn't it also Zhao Shuguang who set up a mandala to control the edge of the Divine Sword?"
Madam Zhu Zi said: "The Rebellion Divine Sword can only kill lives, how can it be compared with the falling star? Today is as red as blood. You can imagine how miserable the situation is deep in the southern soil."
After thinking for a while, Prime Minister Xin Taichen said: "Zhao Miao is the descendant of the Zangliguan of the Tianxia Dynasty. As far as Wei Chen knows, their rituals and rituals are indeed capable of passing through the world."
Mrs. Zhu Zi laughed: "There are countless people throughout the ages who claim to have the ability to navigate the world."
"What Wei Chen said is not a metaphor." Xin Taicheng said: "The latitude and longitude of heaven and earth are the foundation of the Tianxia Dynasty's ceremonial officers. They can even reorder the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth. Even the enthronement ceremony of the Tianxia emperor must be presided over by the ceremonial officers.
Only then can the name be justified.”
Mrs. Zhu Zi asked: "Oh? Is it possible that he, Zhao Shui, can still decide who will be the emperor?"
The king's brows furrowed. Prime Minister Xin Taicheng knew that he had said something wrong, so he immediately knelt down and said, "This humble minister is talking nonsense, please forgive me."
"I love you, you don't have to be like this." The king raised his hand to support him: "I just don't understand, Zhao Shu has such extraordinary power, why didn't he use it earlier?"
Xin Taicheng said cautiously: "The rituals and rituals are complicated in nature, not to mention the lineage of the ceremonial officers of the Tianxia Dynasty. In order to uphold the heart of heaven and the people below, they must have a bright mind and no partiality. If there are selfish thoughts, it will be difficult for the rituals to be effective.
.
The bigger the pattern of rituals and rituals, the wider the involvement, and the deeper the requirements of one's character. Before going to the altar, you must not only fast and bathe, but also make a vow and never leave the altar if things fail. Nowadays, the scale of rituals is very grand, and it is definitely not what Zhao Shui wants to use.
It can be used.
What's more, the falling star from the sky was originally caused by the demon gods from the southern land gathering together in vain. I think Zhao Shui did not deliberately rebel against the star. It was just the order of the numbers that allowed the calamity of the star that should have fallen on the demon gods to return to its place."
The king nodded slowly, but his expression remained heavy.
After leaving Qin Tiantai, the king asked the others to leave. Madam Zhu Zi immediately said: "Zhao Shui is becoming more and more out of control. Previously in Qingyan County, he had shown his willful side. Now he is practicing Dharma on the altar.
There was such a commotion, but no one was informed in advance. If someone rebels in the future, who can stop it?"
"Now Zhao Shui is in charge of Jianjia Pass to ensure that Wei Xiuwen has enough food and troops on the front line. It is not appropriate to depose him." The king looked to the south: "When the war is over, I will order him to return to Dongsheng Capital. Then we will consider how to deal with it."
…
Jianjia Pass, Wellside Altar.
Zhao Miao stood on the altar, his mind had reached the state of selflessness, all the holes and apertures in his body were shining brightly, the true energy was evaporated, but there was no danger of drying up. In a trance, the energy of the hundreds of meridians was filled again, and he didn't know where it came from.
"Zhao Shu, stop it! Are you planning to die on the altar?"
Deep in the brain palace, Ling Xiao took the initiative to call, but found that Zhao Shu had no response. His soul seemed to have dissipated from heaven and earth, and even the body standing on the altar was as light as a wisp of smoke and was about to disintegrate at any time.
When Zhao Shu was about to dissolve, a hand gently patted his shoulder, making Zhao Shu wake up and turn around.
"Thank you for your hard work." An old voice sounded behind Zhao Shu.
"Grandpa?" Zhao Shu was suddenly startled. He turned around and saw that his grandfather Zhao Wei was behind him, and in the distance were thousands of tribute officials from all dynasties of the Tianxia Dynasty.
The scene in front of him made Zhao Shu feel incredible. Zhao Wei said: "You did a good job and did not insult your predecessors."
When Zhao Shu heard this, he felt that his years of hard work had finally paid off. He smiled slightly at first, and then tears came to his eyes. He cried and laughed, unable to say a single sentence.
"The emperor has fallen, his principles have been broken, and he must use his own body to repair the problem." Zhao Wei's voice gradually faded away, and he said to Zhao Shu, "Let's take the first step."
"Grandpa!" Zhao Shu reached out and tried to hold him back, but found that his grandfather Zhao Wei had retreated far away in almost the blink of an eye, joining the previous eulogizers.
The praising officials bowed deeply to Zhao Miao, and then they turned into specks of light, soared into the sky and disappeared.
"Grandpa!" Zhao Shu opened his mouth to call, and found himself standing on the altar, his figure heavy, not as light and dazed as before.
"What's wrong with you?" Lingxiao asked.
"I, I saw my grandfather." Zhao Shu was still shocked and doubtful, and wiped the tears on his face: "Didn't you see it?"
"You are the only one in the altar, and no other figure has ever appeared." Lingxiao added another sentence: "How can ghosts and spirits invade the altar? I really didn't see your grandfather."
Zhao Shu was still thinking about it, but Lingxiao said: "Do you know that you almost died on the altar just now?"
"What do you mean?" Zhao Shu was puzzled: "I...I don't remember what I did during the practice. After burning my watch, I felt like I was in samadhi, completely unaware of anything in the outside world."
"That's not meditating." Lingxiao said one word after another: "You are about to lose your soul, you are going to dissolve it on the spot!"
