The eldest brother, Zhang Buxiu, is not a master of both martial arts and martial arts.
Why are you still writing poems after not seeing each other for ten years?
The opening chapter is a bad poem that is completely out of context. What, you want to take the top prize?
Shake his head.
Zhang Heng continued to look down.
One eye and ten lines.
I read the letter quickly.
Except for some useless polite words at the beginning, everything that follows is the same thing.
Tiandao Sect is about to make a big move.
As for the eldest brother, he has also been entrusted with an important task by the sect and will soon return from overseas to take charge of the party.
"Hosting party?"
Zhang Heng frowned slightly: "The world is in chaos and evildoers are everywhere. Tiandao Sect can't help but jump out. Do you want a share of the pie?"
Buddhism and Taoism.
Headed by Tianfo Sect and Tiandao Sect.
He has always disobeyed Li Chao's rule.
In the early years, the Tianfo Sect was wiped out by Emperor Li's decree due to its former joy of dancing, leaving only some insignificant remnants.
Tiandaozong is very smart.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, he immediately led the Taoist sect to move overseas, and suffered little loss in the court's purge of the Buddhist and Taoist families.
Now, after a period of cultivation.
According to the information from the old blood bat demon, Tiandao Sect has completed the integration of Taoism.
To say it is a sect, it is actually more accurate to call it alliance.
Under the Heavenly Alliance.
Taoism is one.
There are three thousand Keqing elders at the True Immortal level in the Tiandao Alliance alone.
Each of these true immortal ancestors is the ancestor of the immortal sect, and now they have all been merged by the Tiandao Sect.
After the merger.
There are two branches of Buddhism and Taoism, and the Taoist sect is very powerful.
certainly.
The two have the same, bigger and stronger enemy, and that is Dali.
Dali established the country with civil and military power.
Confucianism and warriors are the foundation of a country.
In addition, taking over the world's monsters for his own use, if the power in the world is divided into ten parts, Dali will monopolize seven or eight.
For the two lines of Buddhism and Taoism that have been suppressed, it would be good if they can account for two or three.
"Fourth brother!"
A flash.
In the blink of an eye, it’s half a month again.
In mid-July, there was a chuckle.
On a white carriage, an old man and a young man walked out.
"Big brother"
Zhang Heng came to greet him personally.
Counting this time, he has only seen this cheap brother twice.
When we talk about being close, we only use the name of our biological brother. We haven't seen each other for ten years, so how come we are so close? When we meet, we don't even know what to say.
"Fourth Brother"
Brother Zhang also noticed the embarrassment after meeting.
In order to alleviate the unfamiliarity, he put on a stiff smile on his face and sighed: "Ten years have passed and you, fourth brother, have grown up too. If it weren't for the resemblance between your eyebrows, my eldest brother might not recognize you."
Finished.
Brother Zhang asked again: "Is everything okay at home?"
Zhang Heng nodded: "Well, my second brother has become the chief arrester of the county. He rides on horseback every day to hunt down bandits. He is very impressive."
"The third sister is also married to Brother Zhu. She has a son and a daughter and runs seventeen restaurants, all of which are in Dachang Mansion."
"Dad, Mom, everything is fine too."
"The old couple couldn't stay idle, so at the beginning of spring, they bought another 300 acres of land."
"Of course, you don't have to work in the fields yourself. You hired more than a dozen men. Half a month ago, the old man fell in love with Aunt Mei, the cook, and clamored to marry Aunt Mei as a concubine. He was scratched all over his face.
There are still scars on my face now.”
"this"
Brother Zhang was stunned for a moment: "Our father is almost fifty, isn't he?"
Zhang Heng replied: "Brother, I'm sorry, the old man is 51."
Hear this.
Brother Zhang was a little bit dumbfounded: "The old man is quite lucky. He is over fifty, and half of his body is buried in loess, but he still wants to marry a concubine."
The joy of thinking.
Brother Zhang winked and asked, "How old is Aunt Mei?"
"Thirty-one, or thirty-two."
Zhang Heng said with a smile: "My husband has been dead for five or six years, and life is not easy with a seven-year-old child. Otherwise, how could I fall in love with the old man?"
Even if Zhang’s father has 10,000 bad things.
But one thing is good.
The eldest son is cultivating immortality overseas, and the second son is the chief catcher in the county government.
The third daughter has more than a dozen restaurants under her name, and the fourth son is Hushan Temple Zhu and the chief steward of the Hou Mansion.
Rich and powerful.
In every ten miles and eight villages, anyone who dares to call him Lao Zhang must now call him Zhang Yuanwai.
Don't talk about pretty widows like Aunt Mei.
Even a girl who is 17 or 18 years old wants to climb into bed.
After crawling out of bed, the second lady would just put a little bit in the corner, and put it in the countryside to find five large tile-roofed houses and a hundred acres of land, enough for the whole family to eat well and drink spicy food.
The children of the poor become parents early.
Whose girl doesn't have a plan?
"The old man is a bit interesting."
Brother Zhang praised, then remembered something, and quickly introduced the old man next to him: "Fourth brother, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Fu, Senior Blood Bat. When I was on the mountain, Mr. Fu always took good care of me.
I."
"This time when I went down the mountain, I specifically requested Master's decree and asked Mr. Fu to protect me."
"Speaking of which, Mr. Fu is not a simple person. He is an elder of our Tiandao Sect. He is a seasoned true immortal. He has magical powers and can fly into the sky and escape from the earth. Even my master has praised him."
Well
Zhang Heng looked at Fu Lao with a smile on his face.
Because this old man Fu, also known as the old blood bat demon, was the one he sent to Brother Zhang back then.
Watch now.
He is like a fish in water and is very trustworthy.
Actually that's right.
The old blood bat demon is the best at flying and escaping.
Although he is only a veteran true immortal, in terms of flying to the sky and escaping to the earth, ordinary earth immortals cannot catch up.
In addition, he can talk and is lovable.
Not to mention being an elder in a sect, even if you go to the government, you will probably be able to make ends meet and be very comfortable.
"One family does not speak the language of two families."
Of course, the old blood bat demon did not dare to let Zhang Heng greet him, and said: "Just call me Fu Lao. I have been wandering all my life, and I cannot tolerate politeness."
"good."
Zhang Heng responded with a smile: "Then I will follow my elder brother and call you Fu Lao."
Said.
Zhang Heng looked at his elder brother again: "Brother, are you still practicing both martial arts and martial arts in Tiandao Sect? Why are you wearing Confucian clothes, a square scarf, and dressing like a Confucian scholar when we meet today?"
Upon hearing this.
Brother Zhang said happily: "Fourth brother, you don't know something. I had another unexpected encounter on the mountain. In the past ten years, I have studied martial arts, law, Confucianism, and three Taoist disciplines. This time when I go down the mountain, I might have to take the exam to be a civil servant."
Zhang Heng frowned slightly: "Brother, if you practice law, practice law, and if you practice martial arts, practice martial arts. I didn't really agree with your practice of both martial arts and martial arts before. Now you want to practice Confucianism. What on earth do you want to do?"
Brother Zhang waved his hand: "What do you know about cultivation? Revising the law, combining Confucianism and martial arts is the trend of this era. Look at the princes in Dali, who is not the second, third, or even the third or fourth?
It is said that some princes practice both Buddhism and Demonology. No matter what, I don’t practice demonism, I just practice demonism.”
Zhang Heng doesn't quite agree with this statement.
Because the more complex your cultivation is, the harder it will be to achieve success in the future.
It’s easy to become knowledgeable about everything and loose about everything.
Just look at Brother Zhang’s appearance.
He thought he was getting an advantage, which made Zhang Heng wonder, did his master on the mountain just ignore him?
If Zhang Heng remembers correctly.
Brother Zhang's master seems to have reached the perfection of the earthly immortal, and just stepped into the realm of the heavenly immortal with just one step.
It's reached this point.
I shouldn’t be unaware of the disadvantages of miscellaneous studies, which makes Brother Zhang study in a miscellaneous but not pure way.
"Old Four."
"I heard in the sect that you manage the Hou Mansion in an orderly manner, and you have thousands of demon soldiers trained under your sect. All in all, you are one of the most powerful forces in Dachang Mansion."
Brother Zhang didn't say much about his own affairs.
But talking about Zhang Heng, Zhan Zhan said: "When I go down the mountain this time, Xianmen has arranged an identity for me. Now I am not the son of the Zhang family in Xiashan Village, but the legitimate son of the Zhang family in Dachang Mansion, a big grain merchant. I am both civil and military."
Zhang Dalang."
Hear this.
Zhang Heng thought about it for a moment.
He knew that the Zhang family in Dachang Prefecture was one of the largest grain merchants in Shunzhou, and their business was very large.
I just didn't expect it.
This family is actually the hidden son of Tiandao Sect.
It seems that Tiandao Sect has very long hands and has long been waiting for the world to be in chaos.
"You and I are brothers."
Zhang Heng was silent.
Brother Zhang whispered: "I won't hide it from you. I have an important responsibility when I go down the mountain this time. The Zhang family, a grain merchant in Dachang Prefecture, has taken refuge with the Eighth Prince of the Li Dynasty. I have received the secret order from the Immortal Sect and am preparing to
As the legitimate son of the Zhang family, a grain merchant, he secretly works for the Eighth Prince. In fact, he is preparing to lure the Eighth Prince into Taoism."
"In addition, this southern region used to be the basic base of our Taoist sect."
"Although sixty or seventy years have passed, many things have changed from bright to dark, but you should not underestimate the power of the Taoist sect. Among the local sects and the prefects, how many are from the imperial court? How many are from the imperial court?
He is one of ours, but it’s actually hard to say.”
"The Eighth Prince is about to go south and come to Shunzhou to build a palace and be named King Shun."
"It is obvious that it is disadvantageous to confront the imperial court, but no matter how strong the fortress is, it cannot withstand the collapse from within. Once I take control of King Shun, Shunzhou will no longer have the surname Li in the future."
"Control King Shun?"
Zhang Heng was a little doubtful: "This is a huge gamble. How can King Shun be so easy to control? Are you not afraid of setting yourself on fire?"
"Afraid."
"But I'm more afraid that I won't be able to realize my ambition."
Brother Zhang lowered his voice and said with a mysterious face: "Ten years ago, the sky was leaking, the earth was cracked, and the sky was exposed. The sky was dew. Have you never heard of it?"
Zhang Heng was silent for a while.
Be silent.
Brother Zhang looked complacent: "Master said that as long as I can accomplish this, I will be rewarded with a portion of the dew. This dew is amazing. It is the condensed essence of heaven and earth. One portion is enough.
It is enough to help me achieve the status of a true immortal, and I will benefit endlessly in the future."
Said.
Brother Zhang was a little regretful again: "It's a pity that Tianlu was divided into 100 parts and escaped from all directions. Our Tiandao Sect didn't get much. Some old-fashioned earth immortals got one point, some core true immortals got one point, and not much after that.
Even immortal sect seeds like mine have to be obtained through contribution."
Zhang Heng still said nothing.
In fact, Tianlu is something that those who have the ability to obtain cannot use it.
Those who use it cannot get it.
As far as he is concerned, if it is given to him for free, he will not use it.
Because he doesn't want to owe God any karma.
But for people like Brother Zhang, whose qualifications are not very good, it is difficult to become an immortal on his own.
Tianlu can be said to be a shortcut.
Because it is difficult for him to become an immortal, so why would he want to become an immortal queen and repay karma?
"But there's no need to rush."
Brother Zhang said to himself: "I heard from Master that the appearance of Tianlu is not accidental. If it appears once, it may appear a second time. Now is the best era, and everything is possible."
Let’s talk about this.
Brother Zhang thought about Zhang Heng again: "Fourth brother, how are you doing? Is there a way to practice in the mountain temple? If not, brother can help you think of a way. After all, we are brothers who fight tigers.
Between us two brothers, we can’t tell who will use whom in the future.”
Hear this.
Zhang Heng's brows relaxed.
Brother Zhang chatted for a long time, but it was all nonsense.
Only the last two sentences are quite useful.
It sounds more comfortable.
"It's okay for me. I've already started practicing cultivation. Although I haven't achieved much, I'm still deep in the mountains and wild forests, and if I don't compete with others, I won't be beaten to death by the crowds."
Zhang Heng replied, and then reminded: "Brother, the Dharma is not too much, but pure."
"Confucianism, Legalism, and Martial Arts. Just study whichever one you like. Don't study all three at the same time. There's no way out."
aside.
After hearing this, the blood bat ancestor suddenly said: "That's right."
Zhang Heng glanced at the blood bat ancestor.
The blood bat ancestor once again acted as a mute, and his eyes seemed to say: 'I am a stream of consciousness, and I am subconsciously following you.'
"well"
Brother Zhang sighed: "Actually, I also want to go all the way to the dark side, but my qualifications are not good, so I can only learn from each other's strengths and practice what I am good at. If I don't do it,"
Zhang Heng added: "It would be nice if there was dew from the sky, right?"
Brother Zhang touched his head: "I thought so too, so I vowed to go down the mountain."
Zhang Heng sighed inwardly.
I don't have any ideas at all. My future plans are all based on the illusory treasures of heaven, materials and earth. What else can I do?
But then again.
One's heart is gone.
Even if you let him practice, he won't be able to achieve anything, and the true immortal will come to an end.
Went back.
If Tianlu is born again, he should work harder and grab a few more drops.
after all.
Brother Zhang can ask him if he has any skills to practice, and if he doesn't, he can help him find a way.
