In Zhao Shui's eyes, Liang Tao's cultivation level is indeed superb, but his control and education of the Chongxuan Hall and the four surnames of the Xian family are not very good. What he gained through indulgence and indulgence was not loyalty and service, but the intention to establish a separate sect and make his own decisions.
.
It is definitely untrue to say that all the four surnames of the Immortal Family except Liang Tao are incompetent. Liang Shuo, Wang Zhongding, Chu Mengchun and others, their cultivation and magic power are not shallow, and they are young. If they have more experience and polish,
, the future achievements are limitless.
However, the four surnames of the Immortal Family have long lost the enterprising spirit of Chongxuan Hall in the early years. Two or three generations of time are short-lived for those who cultivate immortality. The indulgence and laxity of the four surnamed families has reached an irreversible point.
In fact, the disciples of Chongxuan Hall who followed Liang Tao and guarded Difei Mountain no longer had many direct descendants of the four surnamed families. They were mainly promoted by Liang Tao himself, such as the Tianhu of the Jiang family, the dead men of Xuanyi, and the subordinates who changed their surnames and joined them.
Guan disciple.
Even the person who stood in front of Liang Tao in the end was an outsider like Zhao Shu. This is not without irony.
While Zhao Shu was deep in thought, the monk in gilded clothes noticed a flaw, and the Lihuo Pill turned into a line of fire and rushed down.
"Be careful!" Cangyan Gong shouted, causing the waves to block the fire beads.
However, the attack of the fire beads was so urgent and fierce that it directly knocked a hole out of the wave peak and attacked Zhao Shu directly, threatening to turn him into ashes.
Zhao Shu didn't even look at it. The energy around his body was stagnant for three feet, and the Lihuo Pill immediately stopped. Zhao Shu raised his hand to take a photo, and the red and gleaming ball fell into his palm.
The monk in Jinyi was shocked when he saw this. His magic weapon was easily taken away by the other party. This kind of thing must be done if there is a huge gap in cultivation level.
"It seems that after you took the magic weapon, you didn't get the true magic formula. You only knew how to force it to use it." Zhao Shu whispered to himself: "If you want to make good use of this Lihuo Pill, you must have a pure fire and be mindful.
Za, take a yang in the ridge, connect it with the essence of the fire between heaven and earth, and turn it into a real fire. Its power is not only for killing."
Now that Zhao Shu has received all the inheritance from Chongxuan Pavilion and has some understanding of the method of alchemy, he can understand the method of using Lihuo Dan in the blink of an eye.
The monk in Jinyi couldn't hear clearly and thought that Zhao Shui was mocking him. He was filled with hatred and fear in his heart. Having the magic weapon taken away was like cutting off his limbs for a monk.
However, recalling that Zhao Shu had made two consecutive attacks, his use of magic power had far surpassed his own, and it would be extremely disadvantageous to continue the fight.
"Your name is Xu Huaiyu?" The monk in Jinyi suppressed his emotions: "I am Jia Shengu, the third-grade Qizhen master of Yunzhu Pavilion. I am ordered by Grand Sima Jun to sweep away all kinds of rebels and rebels against the party. I think you can be considered a successful practitioner and should know the truth.
Don’t resist the laws of the imperial court.”
"Da Sima Jun's decree?" Zhao Shu asked.
"That's right!" Jia Shengu raised his chin, as if he had become more confident: "There are many capable people and strangers under the command of Da Sima, but I am just an ordinary person. I see that you have some outstanding cultivation, so I advise you not to do it.
For a moment, I wasted my life and my future for such evil spirits. Otherwise, as soon as the arrow of the Grand Sima Order falls, the heavenly soldiers will be everywhere, turning all the disobedient people into powder!"
At this time, Duke Cangyan sent a message in secret: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for speaking out! I have a plan to escape. I would like to trouble you, fellow Taoist, to delay for a moment."
Zhao Shu thought in his heart that he had lifted the seal for Cangyan Gong, but he was suffering from old injuries and could not use the advanced magic power in the past. In the face of bullying and persecution by juniors like Jia Shengu, he could only run away.
go.
"I traveled through the mountains and rivers downstream and traveled around. I heard that the war in Huaxu country is endless now, and the red clouds have taken over half of the country." Zhao Shu did not hurry and began to delay time for Cangyan Gong, asking: "Since the great commander of your country has a
Why are there so many high-ranking ministers still being defeated repeatedly?"
"Unbridled!" Jia Shengu glared: "I'm sorry that you are just a casual cultivator in the mountains. You don't know the changes in the current situation, so don't worry about it for now. The Chiyun Rebellion Party is best at deceiving people and coercing ignorant people to cause chaos, but at best they are looting the countryside.
, there won’t be any trouble. The Grand Sima is like a god with his troops, and the three young masters kill the generals and seize the flag, so why worry about not defeating these thieves?"
Zhao Shu showed a subtle smile. Now that the Luo family controls the government in Huaxu Kingdom, the third son mentioned by Jia Shengu is probably Luo Xixian.
"You want to deal with Chiyundu, but I remember that most of their troops are in the south." Zhao Shu asked: "I wonder what Master Jia has to do here? Are there rebels and rebels here?"
"The monster in the water colluded with the Zhao thief and committed an unforgivable crime. Of course, it must be killed!" Jia Shengu said, pointing to the water.
Zhao Shu sensed that Cang Yangong was secretly using his magic power and seemed to be using water escape to escape, so he continued to delay and asked: "Zhao Thief? Could it be Zhao Shu who caused the drastic changes in Dongsheng Capital back then?"
"It's this person!" Jia Shengu snorted coldly: "The Zhao thief caused a huge disaster. There are countless people in Huaxu who want to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin. It's a pity that God has no eyes and let him die on the ground.
Feishan, it’s a fluke!”
Zhao Shu asked expressionlessly: "But I heard elsewhere that the culprit was Liang Tao of Chongxuan Hall. Zhao Shu was not very well-known before the drastic change. At most, he was a junior who was just beginning to show his talents."
"I think you don't understand anything." Jia Shengu said bluntly: "The Zhao thief assisted Liang Tao in arranging the rituals and deceived everyone back then. This is the most insidious move! The Tianxia Dynasty originally died because of the praise officer. The late king
You credulously believed in the Zhao thief and put this successor of Zanli Guan in an important position, which led to great disaster!"
Zhao Shui was also startled when he heard this. He and Liang Tao were hated by the world and had nothing to say. He didn't expect that even the Zan Li Guan inheritance would be implicated, which was really helpless.
"Fellow Taoist, I have to take a step forward. After getting rid of Jia Shengu, I might as well move to the Bamboo Forest Crossing two hundred miles to the northeast." Cangyan Gong came again, his figure shrouded in a swirling mass.
In the undercurrent, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Oops!" Jia Shengu immediately noticed that Cangyan Gongshui was escaping, and with a breath of energy, he remembered that the Lihuo Pill was still in Zhao Shu's hand.
"What a good thing you did!" Jia Shengu was furious: "Because you blocked me for no reason and caused the evil spirit to escape, what crime do you deserve?!"
"Xu is an outsider who does not know the laws of the imperial court. If I have offended you, please forgive me." Zhao Shu looked coldly: "But I would like to advise Master Jia that those who cultivate immortals should have the thought of cherishing their lives and doing it for themselves.
Selfish desires, wealth and treasures lead to reckless warfare and indiscriminate killings, which is of no benefit to the immortal way."
Jia Shengu, whose thoughts were exposed, did not want to reflect and asked: "Are you going to go against me, the Huaxu Kingdom?"
The words and deeds of Jia Shengu really made Zhao Shui disgusted. He threatened him at every turn, and his vision was so shallow. I really don’t know how he achieved such achievements in cultivation. Could it be that the strong turbidity also affects the mind of those who cultivate immortality?
"I have no intention of going against anyone." Zhao Shu just said: "Since the monster has escaped, Master Jia can go look for it elsewhere. Xu will not accompany me."
After saying this, Zhao Shu turned around and was about to leave, but he still held the Lihuo Pill in his hand. How could Jia Shengu tolerate it? He waved to the disciples below and looked at Zhao Shu's unprotected back.
Raising his hand to seal the secret, a golden crow appeared in front of him and flew towards Zhao Shu.
The Golden Crow's body was covered with blazing flames, and it roared loudly. Zhao Shu didn't even look back. The jade tree's treasured staff touched the water surface lightly, and the canopy of the tree opened.
The golden crow flew straight down, hit the canopy of the tree and exploded with a bang. The green leaves and branches swayed slightly, but no damage was seen at all.
"It's a bit familiar." Zhao Miao rolled his eyes and remembered the Donghai monk holding the golden feather sword on Difei Mountain. He turned around and said, "This is not a spell from the Yunzhu Pavilion. What is your relationship with Fusang Island in the East China Sea?"
"I am one of the Ten Wings of Yanggu!" Jia Shengu no longer concealed it.
"The ability is not great, but the reputation is not small." Zhao Shu chuckled. He now understood why Huaxu Kingdom, which has experienced many disasters and wars, still seems to have a group of monks with good abilities. Most of them probably come from the East China Sea.
I remember that in Difei Mountain, the masters from various factions in the East China Sea formed a formation to attack, but Zhao Shui, who was blessed by the magic power of the Xian family, killed everyone. There were several powerful people among them. It would be impossible to deal with Zhao Shui now.
easy.
These monks who came from various Shuifu sects in the East China Sea were not supposed to work together. They were able to join forces to deal with the Chongxuan Pavilion, presumably because of Canghua Tianjun's method.
At this time, Jia Shengu's disciples were also casting spells, and swords, swords, and shadows came one after another, but none of them could enter Zhao Shu's field of vision.
The jade tree staff waved lightly, sweeping away the green light, and all the spells were scattered. Unwilling to give in, Jia Shengu shouted angrily, and a pair of golden wings appeared on his back.
"Demon transformation? That's not right." Zhao Shui saw that the wings were nothing more than the formation of true energy. They thought they were the secret method of Fuso Island. But now he was too lazy to think about it and shouted: "Isn't it a magic weapon? Give it back to you!
"
After saying this, he threw his hand and the Lihuo Pill turned into a burst of fire and headed straight for Jia Shengu. This hand was caught off guard and interrupted Jia Shengu's exercise and breath control, so he had to barely catch the Lihuo Pill.
However, when his hand was scorching hot, Jia Shengu was shocked to find that his true energy was like hot oil, and was instantly ignited by the Lihuo Pill.
Flames exploded, and with a scream, Jia Shengu fell from the sky covered in fire. The disciples rushed to rescue him, but no one stopped Zhao Shu from leaving.
…
The bamboos were yellow and the wind was blowing through the forest. Zhao Shu walked along the river bank and came to a river crossing with elegant scenery.
Seeing a garden from a distance, Zhao Shu concentrated his attention and heard faint sounds of singing and dancing in the garden. He thought it was the private residence of a dignitary.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, thank you very much."
In the dense bamboo forest, an old man in black clothes with white beard and hair appeared and walked out. He bowed deeply to Zhao Shu and said, "I was just at the moment of life and death. I should not have escaped alone. However, my magic power was weak, so I had to let my fellow Taoist face Jia Shu alone.
Kamiya and others.”
"Mr. Cangyan is joking, you just don't want to conflict with those people." Zhao Shu gently removed the cover of Jiutian Yuntai and revealed his true face: "I wonder if Mr. Cangyan still remembers me?"
"Hou Zhenming?! You're still alive!" Cang Yangong quickly covered his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth and said with a surprised expression: "You're not...how could you...this is not the place to talk, come with me!"
Even though Cang Yangong had been sealed for a thousand years, he could still tell the difference between good and bad. He led Zhao Shui to the depths of the bamboo forest, where there was no trace of anyone, and set up a ban at the source of a stream to start a conversation.
"I see, I really didn't expect you to be alive... Just stay alive."
Zhao Shu roughly told his experience to Cang Yangong, and he was very emotional: "I am lucky to have saved a life, but now I can't walk openly with my past identity."
Cang Yangong nodded and said: "It should be so. It's just a pity that you worked so hard, but in the end you were not recognized by the world."
Zhao Shu sighed: "Now, not only the Huaxu Kingdom, but also the entire Kunlun Continent has been plunged into disaster because of my arrogance. As a result, I don't know how many people have been killed. If the dead have souls, the sound of wailing is enough to destroy my body and soul, and my soul is gone."
"How can I blame you for this matter?" Cang Yangong said: "Although I was not in the Dongshengdu area at the time, Huanshachi is somewhat connected to the earth's veins, so I can sense the disturbance of the Qi machine.
According to your statement, it was the Canghua Heavenly Lord who suddenly appeared in the end and stole the operation of the ritual. With the layout, he was the culprit. It was just because there were very few people who knew about the Canghua Heavenly Lord, so he accused you of it.
"
"I also want to persuade myself like this." Zhao Shu said: "It is true that Canghua Tianjun has been planning for many years, and many things happened because of him. In the end, he was killed by the teacher, which can be regarded as retribution. However,
But I arranged the altar with my own hands and laid the foundation for this disaster.
In fact... I vaguely expected this outcome at the time, but I just deceived myself, thinking that if I failed, it would be nothing more than death. But in the end, I survived and watched the disaster I caused."
At the last moment when Zhao Shu set up the altar in Huaxu Kingdom, he considered that if his plan failed, he would definitely not end well, so he persuaded Lu Wangji and others to leave.
With Zhao Shu's attainments in rituals and rituals, he could not have imagined the consequences of Liang Tao's failure, but he chose to turn a blind eye and headed to Difei Mountain with a death wish. However, this state of mind was not brave, but almost foolish.
"If you have been ignorant, there is nothing wrong with your ignorance." Zhao Shu said: "But if you are clearly aware, but you force yourself to be ignorant, and waste the safety of the people, this is not the case that the ignorant is not guilty."
Zhao Shu is a cultivator of immortality. At his level, if his mind and thoughts are troubled, it will hinder his cultivation.
And if you want to understand your mind, you must investigate the past. Zhao Shu did not simply take responsibility and guilt on himself, but he reflected on his previous actions.
"By the way, why did Jia Shengu's group come to Huanshachi to cause trouble for you?" Zhao Shu asked: "With the magic power of our seniors, it won't be a problem to repel them."
"You also know the reason. They just took the opportunity to search in the name of killing the rebellious party." Cang Yangong said helplessly: "Jia Shengu and others first wandered around the old site of Lvzhu Garden. Later, they learned that I was at the bottom of the lake, so
I got a weird idea.
Nowadays, Huaxu Kingdom is in constant chaos, and it is really not a good day to make an appearance. I ignored their previous attempts. This time, Jia Shengu personally took action, and I had to escape from Huansha Pond... Although I was sealed in the
So, after staying for a long time, I feel reluctant to leave."
"So, I caused the senior to lose a place to live." Zhao Shu said with a smile.
"What the hell!" Duke Cangyan was quite open-minded about this: "If you are addicted to comfort, why don't you set up your own net? I would also like to thank Jia Shengu. If he hadn't pushed me, I would have refused to leave Huansha Pond!"
