Liang Tao looked like a jade tree standing in the wind, raised his hand to touch his chin, with a subtle smile on his face. He glanced at Ding Muqiu first, and then looked at Zhao Shui: "What? Zhenminghou has taken a fancy to the female disciple of Mingxia Pavilion? Specially
A late-night tryst?”
Zhao Shu's face was gloomy, without any smile. He looked at Ding Feiling, the leader of Mingxia Pavilion, who turned his face away to avoid Zhao Shu's intimidating gaze.
"I have no intention of joking." Zhao Shu asked as if he was torturing a prisoner: "Is Ding Muqiu your daughter?"
Liang Tao nodded calmly: "Not bad."
After receiving a clear answer, Zhao Shu showed no sign of relief on his face. Instead, he frowned. He suppressed his displeasure and said: "Master Ding, please take your wife away. I have something to say with the Imperial Master.
."
Ding Feiling was found out about her affair by outsiders, and her face was filled with shame. She had no choice but to pick up Ding Muqiu and escape into the night.
"You actually don't have to take care of others like this." Liang Tao said with a smile: "Seeing Ding Feiling so ashamed makes her even more charming. It really makes me happy."
"It's really ugly!" Zhao Shu pressed his forehead with disgust: "Based on Ding Muqiu's age, plus the Mingxia sect took the initiative to change the name to the Guansha... Have you long ago used Ding's leader to secretly control the Mingxia Pavilion?
"
Liang Taoxin waved his sleeves, causing the destroyed bamboo and wood to fly and restore itself to its original state. He motioned for Zhao Shui to enter and poured a glass of wine to taste.
"When I wiped out all the sects in Huaxu Kingdom and seized the blessed land, I didn't just make enemies and kill people." Liang Tao sat on a bamboo couch: "Those who are willing to submit, such as Feilian and Yunzhu, I will allow them to keep
The inheritance of the sect has been changed to the system of pavilions, and all you have to do is obey the orders. As for Mingxia Pavilion, I support Ding Feiling to take the position of head. As for the price, of course I have to ask her to sacrifice her body for me.
"
When Zhao Shu saw Liang Tao saying this, he looked very proud and asked coldly: "Do you think this kind of thing is worth boasting about?"
"That's right, what else?" Liang Tao looked around the inside of the thatched cottage: "You have never seen Ding Feiling, who looks dignified and reserved now, the leader of Ding. Back then, in order to win the position of the leader, he forced his fellow disciples to flee. Master
He was able to use any underhanded means and spare no effort to please me. Back then, on this bamboo couch, his voice was louder than that of Yongzangpo's oiran."
Zhao Shu was greatly disappointed. He originally thought that Ding Feiling was the kind of person who cultivated immortality with a noble temperament and did not get caught up in the popular customs. He never thought that she would have such a past.
"That's it." Zhao Shu immediately figured out many things: "No wonder Chief Ding took the initiative to show his kindness at the Yingzhou Conference and helped me win the Shenke Immortal Fruit. All of this was your arrangement, right?"
"Exactly." Liang Tao no longer concealed it: "I know very well that the country leader has always wanted to win over various pavilions and intends to isolate Chongxuan Pavilion. Then I might as well use the trick and insert Mingxia Pavilion into it, so as to
He is aware of their various measures and even interferes with their plans."
Zhao Shu felt cold in his heart. Liang Tao's control over the situation in Huaxu Kingdom was far beyond his imagination. He couldn't help but ask: "Fei Lian, Yunzhu has been working for Chongxuan Pavilion for a long time, and you are also secretly controlling Mingxia Pavilion."
, where is the Jiangzhen Pavilion? Do you think there are also manpower deployed by you?"
"Really not." Liang Tao spread his hands: "I might as well tell you the truth. Before I met you, I didn't think anyone's rituals and rituals could help me create a Taoist kingdom in the world. As for the Jiangzhen Hall, I
It’s not an authentic inheritance, it’s just a bunch of charlatan sorcerers. I want to crush them to death, but I’ll just do it casually.”
For some reason, a trace of despair arose in Zhao Shui's heart. He had previously harbored some thoughts that he might be able to take advantage of the general trend to try to balance Liang Tao and prevent his selfish desire from expanding endlessly to the point of harming the country and the people.
To achieve this, we need to unite the various offices of the Huaxu Kingdom. Even if we cannot force Liang Tao to surrender, we must at least occupy a place in all aspects of the future Dao Kingdom.
Liang Tao borrowed Zhao Shu to suppress the four surnames of Chongxuan, and Zhao Shu wanted to use various restaurants to counter Liang Tao. Because no matter what, in the future of the human world, Liang Tao will not be able to conquer the world by himself.
Zhao Shu planned to let Mingxia Hall set up a nursing home. In addition to taking care of orphans, widows and children, he also hoped that Mingxia Hall could take this opportunity to gradually grow. Only by holding the wealth and manpower in hand and recruiting many disciples could it become a big trend.
But when Zhao Shu learned about the relationship between Ding Feiling and Liang Tao, his plans were completely in vain. He might as well make wedding clothes for others.
Liang Tao stared at Zhao Shu, and there seemed to be something different in his smile: "I just saw you knocking Xiao Qiu'er unconscious, and you acted decisively without thinking. Could it be that you already knew that I was her father?"
"I just guessed it." Zhao Shu said with a straight face: "Ding Muqiu's eyebrows are somewhat similar to yours, and I sensed that her purple silk magic weapon has the same effect as Jiutian Yuntai."
"Good eyesight." Liang Tao praised: "Her purple cloud flying silk was made by me in the early years by imitating Jiutian Yuntai. Later, I integrated the Mingxia Sect's method of gathering clouds. This kind of weapon refining technique
, compared with your Huaiying Pavilion, which one is higher or lower?"
"With all due respect, you are just relying on your cultivation level to use the Immortal Family's ability to transform objects by condensing clouds and forming shapes." Zhao Shu was not polite: "Having said that when making weapons, the first thing to do is to identify the properties of heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Then mix and refine it according to its physical properties. Looking at what you are doing, few people in the world can do it, and it is useless no matter how clever you are."
Liang Tao pouted and said, "Tsk, it's better not to ask."
"The altar site is about to be completed. If you don't stay in Difei Mountain to retreat and repair in preparation for important events, what are you doing here?" Zhao Shu asked.
Liang Tao smiled and said: "Since we are doing something important, you weren't allowed to see my daughter before?"
"Are you going to continue to cover up with words?" Zhao Shu almost asked, "Even Ding Muqiu doesn't know that you are his biological father. Is it possible that at this critical moment, there will be some drama about father and daughter recognizing each other?"
"What else?" Liang Tao looked shameless.
Zhao Shu narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Did you lure me here on purpose? With your cultivation level, it is easy to avoid Ding Muqiu. She can only see you because you did it on purpose. Right now
At this time, it is not appropriate to create extraneous matters, so what if Ding Muqiu is your daughter? Can't we wait until the big thing is decided before we recognize our relatives? Must it be at this time? "
"What does it mean that Ding Muqiu is my daughter?" Liang Tao smiled: "Zhao Shu, I didn't realize that you are such a cold and heartless person. Aren't your children important enough? Before soldiers go to war, they have to stay with their families.
After saying goodbye to my wife, children, and young children, I can’t have any more personal relationships?”
"I advise you not to have any." Zhao Shu said with a serious expression: "At this critical moment, any selfish thoughts may lead to failure of the Dharma. At this time, you should fast and bathe, discipline your body and mind, and retreat when it is time.
Take a good retreat and don’t run around with self-righteousness!”
Liang Tao stared at Zhao Mi for a long time and said: "At first I thought you didn't touch Jiang Ru because you thought she was dirty. Then I thought you were ambitious and didn't want to get involved in matters between men and women until the big deal was decided. Now I understand.
, you are actually a cold and cold person at heart, and no one can look down on you."
"The last person who said that I have a cold temperament was killed by my own hands." Zhao Shu said: "I don't think the Imperial Master is so ignorant. As a descendant of Zanli Official, the foundation of my character is to help people with material things.
If you have a cold temperament, how can you perform rituals effectively?"
"No, no, no, you just think you are doing good things and benefiting people." Liang Tao shook his finger: "I have only recently understood that your actions of doing good things are nothing more than satisfying your own interests, and even using them as a way to make money.
flaunt."
"It's extremely ridiculous!" Zhao Shu was too lazy to refute such heresies.
Liang Tao smiled and said: "You are not only cold, but also suspicious. You always think that every move I make has some profound intention, but you never thought that I really just want to take this opportunity to get to know my daughter. People who cultivate immortality are not ruthless wood and stone.
There are also things to pay attention to when it comes to earthly relationships, but they don't mean to be abandoned and cut off... I almost forgot, your family seems to be no longer alive? No wonder you are so cold and heartless."
Zhao Shu sneered: "Thanks to the master's actions to divert floods, my father was buried in Fumirage Valley, and my mother also died of illness a few years ago."
"Oh?" Liang Tao asked, "Now that we're talking about this, are you planning to avenge your father?"
"I want revenge, will I mention this in front of you?" Zhao Shu said: "Swords have no eyes, and water and fire are ruthless. Once you go to the battlefield, you can't guarantee your escape. My father was at best a military lieutenant colonel.
Wei, his cultivation level is not as good as mine now. He has no old grudges with you. I can tell the difference between right and wrong here!"
Liang Tao was originally prepared to explain what happened back then to Zhao Shu, but Zhao Shu had already seen through it, which frustrated his intentions.
"You don't care so much?" Liang Tao asked, "That's your father."
"I am more concerned about whether the Dao Kingdom in the world can unify Kunlun Continent in the future." Zhao Shu simply said: "As long as the five kingdoms remain side by side, there will be no end to the situation like mine. Only the unification of Kunlun can quell the hatred and settle the people.
heart of."
Liang Tao shook his head and sighed: "When my son Liang Shaoxi died on the battlefield, I spent a lot of effort to take revenge."
This was the first time Zhao Miao heard Liang Tao mention his son, so he asked: "Why... why did he die?"
"Curse-forbidden students." Liang Tao's sharp eyes made people feel like sharp knives. "There is a Xiong country that has taken in the cursed-forbidden students of the Tianxia Dynasty. Maybe you know their methods better than me, right?"
During the Tianxia Dynasty, the most worshiped magician was not the Praise Officer, but the Curse Banner.
Compared with the praise officer who needs to study the rituals and rituals, the incantation and banning students are much easier to get started. It is based on blessing incantation, praying, distributing Qi and performing the abstinence. The simple ones can ban snakes, insects, ghosts and evil spirits, and the advanced ones can ban the evil spirits of the body.
It can stop tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves, and it can enter and exit water and fire without hindrance. It can also stop wounds caused by swords and soldiers, and miasma and plague poisons.
As for the so-called treatment of diseases in ancient times, medicines were insufficient, and there were many methods of blessing. In later generations, talismans, seals, and curses were used together. In the Tianxia Dynasty, curses were set up to prohibit the birth of a lineage, and they were no longer limited to the method of prohibiting curses.
What the Curse Ban Life pursues is not the state of mind of giving material benefits to people, but the flow of spirit and heaven and earth, thereby moving the essence and changing the qi, and achieves the effect of dispelling evil and supporting righteousness.
When rescuing patients, the body's cold, hot, and dry qi should be transferred to cut off the cause of the disease, remove its root, and block its source.
When attacking externally, change the qi of the four seasons of heaven and earth, yin and yang, and use the principle of generation and restraint to cut down its roots and destroy its principles.
The praise officer of the Tianxia Dynasty used the mandala to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth, and curses and bans were preferred. Many people worked together to cast spells and bans to change the energy. Once it was activated, it could change in unpredictable ways.
However, as far as Zhao Shu knew, when the Tianxia Dynasty fell, the cursed students did not choose to stick to the imperial capital, but fled early. Some cursed students simply became charlatans.
However, there was a group of highly capable cursed students who chose to join the founding emperor of the Xiong Kingdom. Later, they even assisted the Xiong Kingdom in its conquests from east to west. The monks of Guanli in the Huaxu Kingdom suffered a lot at their hands.
The Cursed Forbidden Beings can transform Qi, exorcise evil and assist the good, but there is no hindrance at all on the other hand. Even during the Five Kingdoms War, in order for the war to go smoothly, the Xiong Kingdom allowed the Cursed Forbidden Beings to cast all kinds of vicious spells and suppress witchcraft.
Such methods are harmful.
Zhao Shu heard from his teacher that there were several monks who were good at swordsmanship in the Huaiying Hall. After a night attack on the enemy camp, they came back with bleeding from all their orifices and the sword energy bursting out of their bodies. The death was extremely tragic. It was later found out that they had been hit.
The spell of banning birth.
"Most of the magic methods of cursing and banning life are aimed at individuals. People who refine their qi and cultivate the truth promote the pure and suppress the turbid. They like the pure and hate the dirty. If they do the opposite, it will most shake the cultivation of magic." Zhao Shu said:
"For example, collect the excrement and excrement of men and women, pour it into the pond and boil it into golden juice, take the pus and blood from the body of the patient with malaria, and the water from the woman with the lower body malignant disease, and then take the soil from the tomb and mix it into talisman water, which is enough.
It can break most immortal spells."
Liang Tao couldn't help but show disgust when he heard this: "Why are they all such dirty tricks?"
"If in the Tianxia Dynasty, this kind of evil spells were strictly sealed, most of the cursed people would not know about it at all." Zhao Shu said: "If it is not a last resort, this method will not be used. What's more, in Tianxia
With the national power of the dynasty and the cooperation of various magicians, naturally there is no need for these magics."
Liang Tao said: "But it's useful now."
"Kunlun is in chaos, and not everyone can keep their true intentions." Zhao Shu said: "Once some things are indulged, it will cause endless disasters, harming others and ourselves."
"There is something in your words." Liang Tao said without a smile.
"I advise you not to be selfish at all." Zhao Shu said: "If you want to ascend to the throne of Shinto and master the energy of heaven and earth, you must not have any selfish thoughts. Only if you have no self and no desires can you live forever.
Your cultivation and magic power has gradually connected with the earth's veins. If you fail, I'm afraid not only will you die, but the entire Huaxu Kingdom will be affected. I can't sit back and watch this happen!"
"You passed the test." Liang Tao said after a long silence.
"Pass the test? Pass what test?" Zhao Shu asked.
"This is my last time to test you." Liang Tao said without hesitation: "Originally, I thought that if you didn't behave to my liking, I would take your life after you finished setting up the altar site."
Zhao Shu's face changed slightly and he couldn't help but take half a step back. Liang Tao stood up and passed Zhao Shu, saying: "After this incident, I understand that you really want to create a Taoist kingdom on earth... I promise you that you will remove all obstacles.
