In the next few days, the story of Fu Yi, an upright and good official, was assassinated and then became a god after his death. The story spread all over Chang'an City, and people were talking about it in the streets and alleys.
Among them, the most discussed one is the cause of Fu Yi's death. For example, who is the assassin and why?
Although the imperial court announced that the monks of the Sanlun Sect had a grudge and assassinated Fu Yi because Fu Yi proposed to clean up Buddhism, they could not resist conspiracy theories. There is a market for this thing in all eras...
So in the legends on the streets and alleys, Fu Yi's death was given various mysterious colors.
Among them, the most widely spread theory is that Prince Li Jiancheng used Fu Yi to speak ill of him in front of the saint, so he took advantage of his trip to Hebei to create his own alibi.
He said he had noses and eyes. If Fu Yi hadn't been under Kong Qing's command, he might have believed it.
Others include the theory that the King of Qin made a move, the King of Qi made a move, the saint made a move, and the Buddhism made a move... The most outrageous thing is that there is also a theory that when Fu Yi came to Chang'an, he seduced his sister-in-law while at a friend's house and occupied her.
The other party's property, so Fu Yi's friend endured the humiliation and survived, and finally met an expert and had to take revenge.
The twists and turns of the plot are as bizarre as a legendary story!
Of course, there are many other things in the rumors on the street, such as whether Fu Yi will be more efficacious than those old gods after becoming a god, and what blessings Fu Yi can bless, including whether he will seek a child.
This made Fu Yi very troubled for a time...
But these things are Fu Yi's problems and have nothing to do with Kong Qing, because according to Qingxiazi, his foundation has been polished very well now, and he can consider advanced skills and directions...
While saying these words, Qingxiazi hinted at Kong Qing in a "subtle" way, mentioning how her Laozi Eight Views Skill was so awesome.
This also made Kong Qing more determined to find Luo Gongyuan.
But while he was looking for someone to look for Luo Gongyuan, Kong Qing was not idle either. He had been living in seclusion in Qingdu Temple, sorting out and studying the Taiqing Immortal Technique that was directly imported into his mind.
Although this Taiqing Immortal Technique is a Zhenshu technique from the Emei Sect in the Shushan world, in fact, the inheritance of this technique was passed on to Guan Yinzi by Laojun before leaving Hangu, and then it was passed down.
.
And who is Guan Yinzi?
He is the ancestor worshiped by Louguan Taoism!
Therefore, Kong Qing also found a lot of Louguan Taoist classics during this period, and compared them with the innate skills and Taiqing immortal skills in his mind. Although he cannot say that he has understood them all, he has digested some of them to a certain extent.
It became clear to me the path I wanted to take next.
Kong Qing's current Xiantian Kung practice has reached the point where sex and life are completely intertwined, spirit and Qi are completely integrated, using the body as the furnace, the heart as the cauldron, the mind and body are combined, and the state of perfection, transcending the ordinary and becoming a saint, rebelling against the innate, and living
In one room, the nature is full of the universe, the form is still in the dust, and the heart is clear outside the things.
This is the so-called state of a Taoist being after a hundred years of success, emerging from one’s shell and becoming a real person.
In Xiantian Gong, the path to the future is also briefly mentioned, which is to cultivate the Dharma body, transcend the three realms, and leave the world... But because Wang Chongyang himself has not cultivated to this state, Kong Qing is not very clear about it.
But now after comparing it with Taiqing Immortal Technique, he has a general understanding...
The so-called cultivating the Dharmakaya is to use the heaven and earth as the furnace, use oneself as the cauldron, mix human and heaven, open up the mysterious door, and completely transform one's soul into the Yuan Shen.
infant.
Once the Nascent Soul is completed, it means that a real person will be separated from the worldly world and become an immortal. If it is placed in Buddhism, it will mean that he will overcome the sea of suffering and achieve the fruit of Bodhisattva. From then on, he will live forever and be transcendent.
After achieving the Earth Immortal, the next step is to transcend the three realms and leave the mortal world.
In the Shushan world, these two realms refer to the 19th Heavenly Tribulation, the 29th Heavenly Tribulation and the 39th Heavenly Tribulation that those who have achieved Nascent Soul need to face. After all three heavenly tribulations have been overcome, the external skills will be perfected.
Under such circumstances, you can transcend the three realms and become a true immortal.
But Kong Qing still doesn’t know what is going on in this world.
However, Kong Qing believed that Laojun would never harm his beloved son, and he would understand everything about transcending the three realms and leaving the mortal world when he stepped into the realm of earthly immortals.
Of course, Kong Qing did not spend all his time studying the Taiqing Immortal Technique. He also spent some time arranging to search for foxes and move hamsters, as well as the rangers from Chang'an City looking for Song Xuanbai and the colorful Taoist priest Si
The whereabouts of Mingjun.
But the strange thing is that these two Taoist priests seemed to have completely disappeared. Search Fox and the others, with the help of Moving Hamster and Ranger, turned Chang'an upside down but could not find these two guys.
While Kong Qing was studying and looking for Luo Gongyuan and Song Xuanbai, Zhang Shanan, who was far away in Xiakou, also saw a burly man from Danyang, accompanied by more than a hundred arrogant and high-spirited men.
of soldiers.
"Are you the reinforcements sent by Fu Gong to a certain person?"
Zhang Shanan looked at the hundred and ten people in front of him and was speechless for a while.
"Didn't I tell Fu Gong that I hope Fu Gong could ask the gods from the Jianghuai land to bless me for successfully raiding Jingkou Town and defeating Zhou Faming's army? As a result..."
Zhang Shanan looked at the people in front of him again and said helplessly.
"Although you all seem to be powerful soldiers, the number is too small and it is of no use!"
"What did Daxantai say?"
The strong man at the head slapped his chest and said excitedly.
"A certain Hou Yuan has studied Taoism with the Lord God for many years. He can capture tigers and leopards in the mountains and bind dragons in the water. A mere Zhou Dharma Ming is not enough. A certain Hou Yuan can bring back his head with a hundred brothers around him."
"This strong man, what you said went too far..."
Zhang Shanan looked at the big man in front of him with some disbelief.
"That Zhou Faming was brave and good at fighting, and he was assisted by Zhou Shaode, Ma Guiqian and others. How could you possibly retrieve his head?"
"So what if you are brave and good at fighting? You are just a brave man!"
Hou Yuan waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
"A certain Taoist technique has been accomplished. Killing him is like killing a chicken!"
After saying that, Hou Yuan cupped his hands towards Zhang Shanan.
"Since Daxingtai doesn't believe it, I don't bother to explain it. Please wait a moment, and I will go to Jingkou Town to get Zhou Faming's head..."
With that said, Hou Yuan turned around and walked towards the gate of Zhang Shan'an's camp. The more than a hundred soldiers around him also looked at Zhang Shan'an with disdain and followed Hou Yuan away without hesitation.
Zhang Shanan looked at Hou Yuan's back from behind and blinked silently.
"This kid really went there. Is there something wrong with him..."
…
More than an hour later, Hou Yuan brought more than a hundred of his confidants to the vicinity of Jingkou Town and looked at the camp in Jingkou Town from a distance.
I saw a fire lit at intervals outside the camp wall. The surrounding area of the camp was not very bright, but it was also impossible for people to easily sneak in from the side. But inside the camp, it was solemn and vague.
I saw the figure of a patrolling sergeant walking around.
"General Hou..."
A big man next to Hou Yuan looked at the camp in front of him and said cautiously.
"This camp looks a little tricky."
"Um!"
Hou Yuan nodded and said in a deep voice.
"You can use Taoist magic to cover your way in, but in such a big military camp, where should you go to find Zhou Faming after entering?"
"General Hou, look..."
The big man who spoke pointed at a brightly lit warship next to the camp, with faint music coming from it.
"There seems to be a banquet going on on that ship. We can disguise ourselves as fishermen and go across the water to catch a few young men attending the banquet and interrogate them."
"It's inappropriate to pretend to be a fisherman!"
Another big man retorted from the side.
"Now is the time of war. How can we let fishermen get close to the warship..."
"rest assured!"
The big man who spoke first said confidently.
"When we arrived, we told them that we were fishermen who were here to sell their catch. They were having a banquet on the boat and they must be in need of fresh fish, so they would definitely let us pass."
"But……"
The other big man was still a little hesitant, but at this time Yuan made up his mind after looking at the brightly lit warship that was not very well guarded.
"Good idea, let's do it!"
"..."
A quarter of an hour later, two fishing boats rowed in tandem from the river in the direction of the warship. Just when they were trying to approach the warship from the water, they heard another voice from the side.
A shout came from aboard a warship.
"What do you do?"
"General Hou, we have been discovered..."
The big man who objected just now said in a low voice.
"I just said that this method won't work and it's not too late to retreat now."
"Don't worry, it's up to me!"
The big man who proposed this method waved his hand, stood up carelessly, and answered loudly.
"A certain person is a nearby fisherman. He saw that the military master on the boat was hosting a banquet, so he planned to come over and sell some of his catch."
"What's the use of saying that? It's a war now..."
Before the other big man finished speaking, he heard the sergeant on the warship reply.
"Oh, so that's how it is, then go over there!"
"What……"
The big man was stunned immediately.
"Is this okay?"
The big man who proposed the solution waved his hand towards the warship and shouted loudly.
"Thanks, brother!"
Then he turned around again and said proudly.
"How about it? I just said this plan is foolproof."
"..."
Hou Yuan and his two fishing boats came under the warship one after another, and the big man from before still took the lead and shouted towards the ship.
"Master Jun, I am a fisherman. Do you need any catch on the boat?"
Soon, they saw a head pop up on the deck and drop a rope ladder towards them.
"If you need it, bring it up!"
Soon, the sergeant on the deck saw several burly men climbing up from below, and he couldn't help asking strangely.
"Where's your catch?"
"it's here……"
Hou Yuan shouted, took out a sharp knife from his waist, and stabbed it into the opponent's throat.
After watching the soldier's body fall, he waved forward excitedly.
"Brothers, kill me!"
This warship seemed completely unprepared for battle. Except for a dozen or so sergeants on the deck, the entire ship was unguarded. Hou Yuan and the others continued to kill them like melons and vegetables, except for a man wearing a uniform.
Except for the middle-aged people in Jinyi, no one dared to take up arms to resist.
But although the man in Jinyi who resisted had some strength, he drank a lot of wine, his limbs were weak, and he was also somewhat unable to perform in the cabin. Within a few moments, he lost sight of one thing. Before Yuan could release his Taoist skills, he
He was knocked over by a powerful soldier beside Hou Yuan and fell to the ground.
"explain!"
After the man in brocade fell down and no one in the cabin dared to resist, Hou Yuanxin grabbed a well-dressed young man next to him and asked sternly.
"Where is Zhou Faming?"
"Zhou Faming?"
The young man trembled and pointed at the man in brocade clothes on the ground.
