On the third day of June in the year 402 of the Great Xuan Calendar, in the sky above the east plain outside Yiluo Shangzhou, a flying boat emitting bright light appeared above the sky.
Zhang Yu's avatar was currently sitting in the main cabin of the flying boat, while Mr. Miao Dan was lying on the soft couch table not far from his hand, wagging his tail from time to time.
Li Qinghe was observing the land below and paying attention to the signal from the sentry tower below. Qingxi was playing with various bright flowers from Jingqiu Shangzhou while humming light music. Qing Shu was holding a long sword in his hand.
Standing aside solemnly.
This is the third year that Zhang Yu has been on tour.
At the beginning, he first went to Qingyang Shangzhou, picked up Li Qinghe, Qingshu, Qingxi and others who had arrived there first, and then set off from there to start the tour.
Now in this third year, he has traveled almost all over the continents. During this period, he has personally visited every Celestial City in every continent and the Shouzheng garrison established there. Now he has arrived in Yi
Luoshangzhou, and after this stop, go to the last stop, Dongtingfuzhou, and then the journey will end.
At this time, Li Qinghe saw a crystal jade flashing in the distance and said, "Sir, the Yiluo Shangzhou Station is just ahead."
Over here at the Shouzheng Station, Xu Chengtong is waiting here with all the station monks.
No matter where Zhang Yu goes, he will use the Taoist Seal of Training to inform him in advance, so as not to delay the incident in vain, so they also know the news one step in advance.
Seeing the flying boat appear at this moment, Xu Chengtong suddenly became excited, then turned to the rear, with a serious look on his face, and said: "The imperial commander is about to arrive, all the disciples will follow me to greet him later."
All practitioners responded in unison.
The flying boat slowly stopped. First, a ray of starlight spread out and spread to half of the field. Then it converged and the huge flying boat disappeared.
Zhang Yu was already standing on the vast plain. He calmed down and walked forward. Li Qinghe, Qingxi, and Qingshu followed behind him, while Miaodanjun followed behind him on all fours.
at his feet.
When Xu Chengtong saw him, he immediately hurried up to greet him alone. He bowed respectfully and said, "My subordinate, Xu Chengtong, pays homage to Tingzhi." The disciples behind him also followed him in performing the salute, and their movements were neat and uniform.
Zhang Yu nodded in return and said, "Xu is on duty, there is no need to be too polite."
When Xu Cheng came to the passage, he bowed and took a step aside, stretched out his hand to greet you, and said: "Tingzhi, the couches have been swept away in the station, and we are waiting for Tingzhi to inspect."
Zhang Yu did not stay outside for long and followed Xu Chengtong into the camp.
Since the Shouzheng garrison was mainly used to defend against foreign enemies, they were all in the shape of a high platform fortress. The tops were all built with solid jade. After the turbid tide receded, various formations were attached. There were layers of barriers on the inside and outside.
There are also military barriers.
In addition to the monks, there is also a garrison of creation warriors and a hundred-man fleet. All expenses here are borne by Xuanting and the local continent.
There are not many decorations inside the main stage, but Zhang Yu can tell that compared with other stations, Yiluo Station can be called shabby.
Most monks will always give themselves some convenience and enjoyment while pursuing their path. After all, except for ascetic monks, some of whom live in pavilions and pavilions, who would live in a dark cave?
He said: "Xu Zhisi's place is different from other places in that there is no sensual entertainment."
Xu Chengtong said solemnly: "As cultivators of our generation, how can we have such things outside our bodies? The cultivators who are empathic in voice, color, and have a higher level of cultivation are fine. They know restraint and know how to reconcile their emotions, but the disciples below are prone to wandering thoughts.
, as the subordinate is on duty, he is setting an example, and he cannot let the disciples below him learn from it."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Xu Zhisi is very diligent and conscientious in his work."
This time he walked around, it was indeed Xu Chengtong's place that was the simplest, but each duty officer had his own method and style, and the situation in each place was different, so it was impossible to generalize, and he was not prepared to interfere on this point.
At this time, Xu Chengtong presented a volume of jade slips and said: "Tingzhi, all the events in the Yiluo Continent in the past five years are recorded in this book. Please take a look at it."
Zhang Yu took it, turned his mind inside, and read it over. The records inside were very detailed, including not only the situation of Yiluo Shangzhou, but also some surrounding continents.
Yiluo Shangzhou is located in the center of the 13th Shangzhou. It is connected to Jingqiu to the south, Yikong to the north, Qingyang to the east, and Yongguan to the west. Its location is very special. Logically speaking, it is prone to all kinds of monsters and supernatural beings.
Invasion of living things.
But in the past few years, Xu Chengtong relied on his extraordinary methods to not only handle the affairs here properly, but also helped other Shou Zheng stations many times. Therefore, while other stations could only be maintained, his place grew stronger.
A lot.
Xu Chengtong said again: "Ting Zhi, my subordinates still have some matters to report."
Zhang Yu put down the jade slip and said, "Sir Xu, please speak."
Xu Chengtong: "In the past two years, my subordinates have noticed that the number of chaos monsters in various continents has increased significantly."
Zhang Yu snorted. He was not surprised by this. This situation was not unique to Yiluo Shangzhou. The Taoist Training Chapter increased the number of Xuanxiu and made it easier for people to enter Taoism. However, it also brought about another thing. That
It's just that some monks can't help but take shortcuts and plunge into the Great Chaos. After all, it's too easy to gain power from here.
Although he put a seal into the Heaven Training Dao Seal that could try to resist the great chaos, not all of them would take this to heart, especially the monks with lower cultivation level.
Moreover, when the state of seeking from the Great Chaos is low, it is difficult to feel much, and it seems easy to suppress. This creates an illusion, and these people think they can control it, causing them to fall deeper and deeper into it.
The problem is that facts have proven that if you want to control yourself normally, your talents, talents and determination will be better than those of your peers, and those who are poor will only lead to worse results.
This is also inevitable.
This time when he went back, he also planned to try to alleviate or solve the matter.
However, on the Yiluo Shangzhou side, Xu Chengtong handled the situation very well. Whenever a Chaos monster was discovered, they went to deal with it as soon as possible and did not cause any major disasters.
He said: "Xu Zhisi, Yiluo Shangzhou has done a good job in his ministry."
Xu Chengtong hurriedly said: "It is really a great honor for me to be able to serve the imperial government. How can I dare to take credit for my meager achievements? I am just a little more attentive than others."
At this moment, he secretly said with joy: "Sure enough, Old Xu and Tingzhi remember all the things I did. Those scoundrels actually said that Tingzhi didn't come to inspect Yiluo first because Tingzhi was dissatisfied with me, Old Xu. It's really ridiculous. Don't you know that inspecting this
Is it true that the further you go in the future, the more relieved you will be and the more you will pay attention to it in the future?"
Zhang Yudao: "I am in charge of the post. It is important to be in charge of the post, but I cannot let go of my meritorious deeds."
Xu Chengtong: "Yes, I understand."
He also knew in his heart that he could stand out among the resident duty officers today not only because of his means, but also because of his outstanding merit in this realm. Only the higher the merit, the more he can do.
Most of the things he handles every day are done by his avatar, and the rest of the time he practices non-stop.
Zhang Yu reached out and took it, and with a burst of energy, a long green branch fell into his hand. He handed it to Xu Chengtong, "Xu Zhisi, you can place this species near the station. This thing can
I will help you practice and also protect the place where you are stationed."
This is Yimu's fallen branch in the world. Almost every time he goes to Suzheng station, he will leave one behind, but the effects are not the same. Not only does this one for Xu Chengtong, but it also contains a trace of Qingqiong Qi.
.
Generally speaking, because the Qing Qiong Qi is at a higher level, only Xuan Zun can properly utilize it. It is difficult for monks who are not at this level to transform it.
However, since the battle with Shangchentian three years ago, due to many collisions with Shangchentian's most precious treasure, Qingling Tianzhi, the upper levels have been able to perform part of the Qi that only Qingling Tianzhi can transform.
Even ordinary disciples can use this energy.
In fact, Xuan Ting is already thinking of ways to put this kind of energy into Xuan Mansion in various places, so that it can help the cultivators in the world practice.
Xu Chengtong took over the branch with a slightly excited expression, bowed and bowed it to the end, and said: "I thank Tingzhi for this gift."
Zhang Yu encouraged him a few words and stayed in the station for half a day. He didn't say much. After observing the situation inside and outside, he left the place by boat.
After Xu Chengtong sent him away, he returned to the station, arranged all the matters, carefully planted the branch in a selected location, and then returned to the inner room to meditate.
One night passed, a disciple's voice came in from the foreign language, and said slightly hastily: "Teacher, teacher, there are changes outside..."
As soon as Xu Chengtong opened his eyes and came out of the inner room, he felt a strong vitality as soon as he went outside. The branches planted last night had now turned into towering trees.
What has changed even more is the area around the station. The land that originally looked a little desolate is now overgrown with vegetation, and there are floating water and rivers everywhere. There is life everywhere, and there are actually deer running from nowhere in the distance.
He couldn't help but excitedly exclaimed: "This is all the favor bestowed upon me by the emperor." As he spoke, he looked solemn and ordered his disciples: "Hurry up and set up a memorial with high incense. As a teacher, I must follow the etiquette and offer sacrifices."
A gift from Xie Tingzhi."
After Zhang Yu left the station, he first went to Yiluo Shangzhou to meet Xuan Shou Gao Mo. After staying here for a few days, he took the flying boat to Dongting Xuan Mansion, the last stop on his trip.
At this moment, on the upper level of Qingqiong, Zhang Yuzheng was sitting in the Qingxuan Dao Palace above the sea of clouds.
In the past three years, he has been meditating and practicing here. His understanding of Taoism has undoubtedly deepened a lot, and his life seal has also created several magical powers.
In the past few years, without the huge threat from the outside, Tianxia's situation was generally stable. However, he looked through the Taoist books, and there was a question that still lingered in his mind.
Currently, there are only a few monks including him who have obtained superior merits, but logically there should be more, so where have these people gone?
While he was thinking, he heard a chime bell ringing, and knowing that the mid-month court meeting had arrived, he stood up and walked into the light shining into the Taoist Palace.
