Chapter six hundred and fifty-eight the same destination
"Not only is this guy here, but he's also making a big splash on Zhuque Street?"
Li Shimin had a cold face, but a few of the people below laughed out loud.
Seeing that his confidant was so disrespectful, Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh and cursed: "This Taoist priest really loves to show off."
Changsun Wuji coughed lightly, pointed his finger slightly, and said: "Since we have agreed to help him deal with Our Lady of Lishan, Your Majesty might as well call this person into the palace and confirm with him about the immortal medicine."
"Liu Bowen is very serious about what he said. I guess there won't be any changes, right?" Li Shimin himself was also very worried.
Some time ago, the Song Dynasty suddenly sent an envoy to celebrate the Tang Dynasty's expansion of territory and occupation of Tubo.
Originally, this was a normal thing. Envoys from the other four countries also came, but the envoys from the Song Dynasty were a little special.
He turned out to be Liu Bowen.
As we all know, Liu Bowen was the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, and was also the teacher of the current emperor Zhu Biao when he was the crown prince in the East Palace.
It was already very strange for Liu Bowen to serve as the envoy of the Song Dynasty. What was even stranger was that when Li Shimin received him, he actually claimed to be a member of a serious sect.
The word "Zhengjingmen" was not a good word in Li Shimin's ears. At that time, Li Shimin was angry and just wanted to vent his anger on him, but Liu Bowen threw out a bait that he could not refuse.
The Zhengjing Sect has a new elder, who is the Jade Rabbit in the Moon Palace who is responsible for brewing the elixir. Her main job in the Heavenly Court is to help Queen Mother Xi brew the elixir.
Liu Bowen offered to exchange the elixir for Datang to support the Zhengjing Sect in their fight against Our Lady of Lishan.
Li Shimin's desire for immortality is no longer a secret. Especially after the death of his father, Emperor Li Yuan, Li Shimin's desire for this became even stronger.
He once asked Li Chunfeng of Qin Tianjian, who was so frightened that he immediately admonished him not to follow in the footsteps of Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han.
Both of these two emperors fell into the curse of seeking medicine in their later years and were manipulated by unscrupulous Taoists.
After Yutu joined the Zhengjing Sect, Liu Bowen was keenly aware of the huge benefits of this matter. At that time, Li Yu had not thought of this level. Because it involved the cause and effect of the Human Emperor, Liu Bowen did not tell Li Yu directly.
He planned to take responsibility for the cause and effect himself.
Liu Bowen himself is also a master of alchemy. As long as the Jade Rabbit succeeds in pounding the medicine, he is confident that he can refine the elixir.
What he didn't know was that Li Yu didn't care about human emperor karma at all, and had already reached a verbal agreement with Cao Cao. In fact, it was useless for Li Yu to care. He had already been involved enough, and was even a little entangled.
He dared to extract even the Human Emperor's Qi and penetrate it into another person's body. The mere cause and effect of the Human Emperor was nothing. It was like a death row prisoner who didn't care about adding another crime of theft to him.
Because of the elixir, Li Shimin had a needy relationship with Li Yu again, and his attitude would naturally not be the same as before.
In Chang'an, how fast can Li Shimin go if he wants to meet someone?
Changsun Wuji asked to meet Li Yu, and Li Shimin nodded. Before half a stick of incense had elapsed, Li Yu had already arrived outside the Tai Chi Hall.
With two "eagle dogs" accompanying him, Li Yu stepped in without any stage fright. He clasped his fists with a smile and said, "I've seen your majesty before, but I haven't seen you for a few days. Your majesty has become a lot wiser and more powerful."
Li Shimin glanced at him angrily and snorted coldly: "The Taoist master's ability to control the air is really amazing. I didn't even see an afterimage that day. The Taoist priest had already flown thousands of miles away, calling for people."
I have to admire it.”
Li Yu knew that he was in the wrong, and escaping was not a problem. The key was to enter the tomb. It was Li Yu who instigated it, and Li Yu also opened those doors.
As a result, after the accident, Li Yu was the first to run away.
Li Yu looked embarrassed and said: "To be honest, Pindao was injured after he entered that day. Later, the one-horned ghost king who went with me escaped with me. If Pindao was conscious, he would definitely help Pindao.
Your Majesty fought bloody battles."
Li Shimin tilted his head and asked, "Does the Taoist priest know who was buried in the tomb that day?"
Looking at his expression, Li Yu knew that Li Shimin probably knew the truth and there was no need to lie anymore. He simply said directly: "It's probably King Zhou of Shang."
It was the turn of the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty to be surprised. They did not expect that Li Yu actually knew.
In fact, Li Yu also guessed, because there was a fox lying on the corpse. Later Li Yu found out that the fox was Daji. Daji had been guarding a corpse for so long, so who else could it be? It was naturally King Zhou of Shang.
Li Shimin then asked: "Then do you know who was suppressed under King Zhou's tomb?"
"Who is it?"
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Finally you have something you don't know. Don't be afraid to tell me. The demon king suppressed below is actually Manjushri Bodhisattva!"
After he finished speaking, he kept looking at Li Yu's expression and found that the Taoist priest was not as surprised as he imagined.
Li Shimin frowned and secretly cursed in his heart, shouldn't this Taoist priest have known about it for a long time?
In fact, Li Yu knew that there was one of the four great Bodhisattvas, but he didn't know which one it was.
After all, Li Yu and Chibi escaped too quickly that day.
Manjushri Bodhisattva, as the left attendant of Sakyamuni Buddha, is called Samantabhadra, the right attendant of the "Li". Together with Guanyin and Ksitigarbha, these are the four major Bodhisattvas of Buddhism.
The four of them were superior to other monks, and their magic power was actually higher than that of many Buddhas. However, due to their own reasons, they all gave up on becoming Buddhas.
After chatting for so long, Li Shimin couldn't wait any longer. He coughed lightly and asked, "Do you know everything about the elixir that Liu Bowen said?"
Li Yu hesitated for a moment and immediately agreed, "The new elder in our sect is the Jade Rabbit who makes medicine in the Moon Palace. It is very simple to refine the elixir. Please don't worry, Your Majesty."
Li Shimin clapped his hands and said: "Okay! As long as you bring the elixir, I can guarantee that there will never be another portrait of Our Lady of Mount Li in the Tang Dynasty."
Li Yu finally knew what Liu Bowen's trump card was. It turned out that he had been eyeing the Jade Rabbit and the elixir for a long time.
No wonder he refused to tell himself, probably because he was afraid that he would be contaminated by the Emperor's Karma. Lao Liu really had good intentions. He didn't want to refine the elixir himself and then trade with Datang, right?
Li Yu was somewhat moved in his heart. Ever since he killed the stone man in the Snow Mountain, Liu Bowen's attitude towards Li Yu had changed.
He began to make serious suggestions for Li Yu, plan his future, and provide suggestions for his battle with Our Lady of Lishan.
Just because Li Yu did what he had always wanted to do but didn't dare to do, killing the stone man was not only about destroying the stone man, but also about withstanding the thunderous blow of the forces behind the stone man.
Li Shimin clapped his hands and said: "Okay, it's a deal!"
