Chapter 306: The Great Order of Conferring Gods, the Descendants of Medicine Saint
Lei Zufeng's Demonic Entrapment Palace was opened, and Fox Dragon entered. Seeing the suppressed prisoners of various crimes, he immediately snorted:
"You failed to rebel by following King Lu. Now that you have ended up like this, do you have any regrets?"
Regret may not be present, but most people must say they regret it in order to survive.
The sin cultivators cried bitterly, hoping to escape this torturous time, but Hulong revealed his identity and expressed that he was from Fusi, the North Town of the imperial court. The sin cultivators immediately put their faces down and shouted angrily, saying
I would rather starve to death in the Trapped Demon Palace than bow to the imperial court!
Nonsense, you will die if you lower your head! You commit such a serious crime, enter Beizhen Fusi and still want to come out alive?
You can at least survive for a few more years in the Trapped Demon Palace!
All the sin cultivators said that I don’t regret it at all now, so don’t come to arrest us, just let us stay in this trapped devil palace for a few more years!
"You have a beautiful idea! I will not take you away today, but I will keep your lives! I will report to the emperor before I punish you!"
Fox Dragon has no documents about how to deal with them. Of course, there is no way to punish them, nor can they take them back to the Forbidden City. After all, the Forbidden City is flying up to the sky. According to Zhang Tianshi, throw these foreign criminals out as long as they can. It’s a good place.
There must be no safety hazard. If one day such a person regains his strength and self-destructs, it can really turn hundreds or even thousands of people into a mess.
Of course, there are deeper reasons...
"When I came here, I met some people..."
Hu Long and Ji Xiang gave a brief explanation. When he came to Wudang Mountain, he saw some great monks from other sects. They gathered together with gray heads and depressed expressions, and flew towards the northeast. After stopping them, they learned that what happened before Wudang Mountain
Something happened.
If these criminal cultivators were to be killed directly, then the imperial court would have no reason to let the monks from those sects go to help in the battle. It would be better to keep them in custody in Wudang Mountain for the time being, and the imperial court would make a promise to them and let them kill the enemy to earn money.
Get military exploits to redeem people.
This will, to a certain extent, prevent the great monks from engaging in war.
Although the guilty cultivators themselves have made a big mistake, if they do not die in their own mountain gate, but are executed by the court or Wudang Mountain, then their own mountain gate's face will be lost, especially Chongyang Palace and Laoshan.
The leader of Quanzhen Dao in the world, if such a bad incident occurs, it is very likely that the few believers will be separated again. Therefore, this time when going to Korea to fight, not only will Ji Xiang be recruited, but also members of various sects will be dispatched.
The monks went to support.
Immortals versus immortals, mortals versus mortals, this is fair.
As for the situation in Shuntian Mansion. Now the offices of Beizhenfu have also been moved to the imperial city area... No, to be precise, within the Shuntian area, basically all the prisoners in the prison have been removed.
Redistribute according to the severity of the crime.
As a result, Old Shen Weijing, who had been imprisoned in the sky prison before, was also released and re-entrusted with important tasks.
Moreover, Old Man Shen also wanted to volunteer to continue to go to the Korean battlefield to show off his remaining enthusiasm, but Emperor Wanli rejected it. This made Old Man Shen very sad. After all, he was finally released from prison, but he could not see his good brother, the combination of "Wolong and Phoenix".
It is really a pity that he cannot recover and that he, as a Wolong, cannot strategize and win the battle thousands of miles away.
He said that he did not know whether the Japanese Army's President Konishi, as his good brother and "Fengchu", would be able to survive after the war.
As for the Dongyue Temple haunted place that no one wanted, it was given to a Western missionary to build a Christian church. Many people said that the place was unclean. The Western bearded man said that he I like unclean places!
In unclean places, land is cheap!
"Roughly speaking, the situation in Shuntian is like this. The next person who comes here should be Shen Weijing. He is crying for the real person to accept him as his disciple. I think he can be the supervisor of the Trapped Demon Palace... ..”
"As for the real person, please be sure to go to the meeting place within five or six days..."
The meeting place mentioned was the place where the Ming Dynasty sent troops for the third reinforcement. Japan had increased its naval forces, and the Ming Dynasty would of course also send more naval troops. If Ji Xiang did not leave now, but had to wait a few days, There happens to be a group of navy troops that are going to set off from a certain ferry on the Yangtze River. They can just take a boat up there.
Going abroad is not that easy. Flying consumes a lot of mana. If you encounter a war just after arriving, your condition will be bad due to excessive consumption, which will not affect your performance. If you go abroad, you will be affected by the national prestige of other countries. Influence.....
Ji Xiang thought about what happened in the South Forbidden City. His current national fate was bound to the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty's national prestige was defeated in the battlefield, it would definitely have an impact on him.
"Wouldn't it take a long time for the naval reinforcements to cross the sea?"
"Soon! With the help of the god of water and the sea! The god of clouds drives away the fog, the god of wind pushes the waves, and the god of the sea stirs up the waves. It takes only five days to reach the thirty-day journey! Within five days, the real person can recharge his energy to reach the destination. Waiting for the battle!"
The Ming Dynasty dispatched some divine generals. These were local divine masters similar to the King of Zhenjiang. Some were canonized gods of the people, and some had taken over the throne of the heavenly tribe. They were powerful. After the death of King Lu, some gods The generals will steer according to the wind, and there was no unusual movement. This time, the imperial court issued dispatch orders to these divine generals in a very short period of time. They did not dare to disobey them and expressed their willingness to fully support the battle.
"One more thing! If a real person encounters those aspiring monsters again, no matter how loyal they are to serving the country, at least they are not murderous in terms of morality, they can be recommended! The emperor has issued an imperial edict and summoned a large number of Confucian scholars at the same time. ....."
"If you want to get one, I'll grant you the God's Order!"
Seeing Ji Xiang's confusion, Hulong briefly explained.
The order has not yet been successfully drafted, so the details are unclear, but in general, Emperor Wanli, Zhang Tianshi and others decided to carry out a large-scale canonization of gods in order to make up for the weak strength of the Forbidden City!
Of course, it is impossible to confer gods on the gods, but a large number of folk gods. However, these folk gods all have the sacrifices of the orthodox imperial court, and temples will be built for them in various places. What they have to do is to become the divine generals of the imperial court. At the same time, Conferring gods will no longer give the gods great rights as before.
A weird folk god like Ling Xiaonu appears, steals the throne of the God of Fire, and burns down the Forbidden City. This kind of thing cannot happen again, so one thing that needs to be established in the process of becoming a god is that there is no such step as "sacrifice to the emperor"!
The lack of this step has lowered the status of the people's gods. At the same time, because Confucianism is involved, the pertinence of divine power is also suppressed. It is impossible to use incense everywhere like in the past, but must be restricted and regulated.
And for the divine generals, there is another preferential treatment! That is, the emperor cannot revoke the divine status of the divine generals at will, and will only be punished if they commit the heinous crimes!
Of course, the Ten Evils among the Ten Evils were also redefined under the efforts of Emperor Wanli. This was the first time since the Sui Dynasty!
But even with so many restrictions, this decree to confer gods is still a very tempting choice for monsters! With the power of incense, you can save decades of hard work, and the power of sacrifices by all people is powerful
What's more, if you are bound to the national destiny of the dynasty and guard one side, your future prospects are limitless. You may even be able to use this as a springboard to lead to the position of the gods of heaven, and truly turn a pheasant into a phoenix and reach the sky in one step!
"Farewell!"
Fox Dragon handed over the imperial edict to Ji Xiang. It didn't matter whether it was announced or not. At the level of an immortal, there was no need to do this.
The sin cultivators were very happy. The imperial envoy was gone and they could live again. No matter how many days they could live, at least they would not have to die now.
"Everyone! Our affairs are not over yet."
After the Wudang cultivators sent away the fox dragon, Ji Xiang summoned the cultivators in the name of the Master of Daolu and asked everyone, except Patriarch Dongyun, to only practice the "Ultimate Grade Great Spiritual Consciousness" within these five days.
"Jing"! And he told them in a targeted and selective manner what happened when he and Zhang Sanfeng went to explore the ruins of Taiping Town together.
Knowing that the weird human face mist can turn a person's three souls into rotten water and regenerate consciousness with the help of the body, this weird method that is more terrifying than taking away the body immediately made the Wudang monks pale in shame.
Here, Ji Xiang wants to teach the Five Teeth Heavenly Book to Patriarch Dongyun, open the mountain gate to screen, and make preparations for the future integration of the mountains and rivers inside and outside, and the maintenance of Taoism.
As for taking the second-turn elixir, I'm afraid it needs to be postponed!
.......
Xiangyang City. A young lady from a wealthy family suddenly fell into a coma and could not wake up. Since yesterday, many people in the city have been in a similar situation.
An old doctor in his fifties carried a medical box on his back, walking between the pillars and the market. After entering the large courtyard, he was greeted by his servants and hurriedly sent to the unconscious young lady.
.
"Old miracle doctor, look what's wrong with my daughter?"
The male owner of the wealthy family looked anxious. The old doctor diagnosed for a while and told him that this was a strange situation that had occurred in recent days. In the past two days, there had been many fainting symptoms of this unknown nature in Xiangyang. It looked like
The plague is contagious, but the patients show no signs of the disease.
"A person's complexion can be seen fading with the naked eye. When I came here, I saw a coma I diagnosed two days ago. His face was pale and his breath was like a gossamer. It was obviously a sign that the soul had dispersed. In medicine, the soul is hidden.
In the liver, blood is used as the medium, and liver blood is used as nourishment."
"There is little blood and qi. People with low blood and qi belong to the heart. Those with weak heart qi will feel fearful and sleep with their eyes closed."
"Long-term sleep is a sign of liver problems, mental dispersion, and wandering spirits..."
The owner was delighted when he heard this: "So there is a way to solve it?"
"No, the strange thing is that I prescribed some medicine to nourish the liver and calm the mind, but after taking it, the man still didn't wake up and his condition didn't improve... Although the effect of the medicine is not achieved in one or two days, at least
It takes more than five days to see the effect, but I checked again, but still found that the effect of the medicine was like a stone, and there was no response."
The meaning is that it is of no use at all, and this is no longer something that can be solved by waiting.
"I can only do my best..."
As he was talking here, on the other side, the door was suddenly opened. The servants of the wealthy family were all frightened. The servants who came in hurriedly broke in, found the old doctor, and said:
"Prince Xiangyang is seriously ill and can't wake up. Please ask the old miracle doctor for help!"
The old doctor quickly asked about the situation in the Prince of Xiangyang's Palace. The old Prince of Xiangyang died of illness two years ago. Now his son is in charge of the palace. He is in his mid-twenties and has not yet inherited the title of king, but he is in good health.
Because the old doctor's father once diagnosed and treated this prince's son, he had abundant yang energy and a long life, and ordinary diseases could not cause trouble.
"This...even the palace has not been spared. Has the young prince met anyone in the past two days?"
"I've met so many people, how can I know so clearly?"
The servants of the palace wanted to take the old doctor away. The wealthy family quickly shouted, saying that their illness was not over yet, so how could they just go and treat others, but what they got in return was obstruction and fists. Looking at this scene, the old doctor
There is nothing you can do.
Power is higher than money, and money is higher than ordinary people. This has been the case since ancient times.
"Why don't you go ask the Taoist temples and high-level masters in the temples to see if they have any way to deal with this?"
The old doctor made a suggestion: "I'm afraid this illness cannot be cured by medicine and stone. I'm afraid it is related to the monster's spell, which may not be cured by mortal power."
"It's no use. Those masters in Taoist temples and temples have a similar situation in their own families. Some disciples were blown to the ground and fell asleep. It is said that part of their souls were destroyed. They are treating themselves.
Too busy to take care of ourselves, there is no way to save us."
"So I can only come to you! You are the son of a miraculous doctor. You have traveled all over the world with the miraculous doctor, and you have seen countless plagues and cures, and even the art of lifting curses. If there is someone in the world who can solve this weird disease, then
It must be you."
The old doctor was silent after hearing this, and then shook his head: "It's a pity that my old medical skills are not good enough. If my father is still alive, he must have a way to deal with it."
"You can only do your best..."
The old doctor sighed, feeling very powerless. While the servants were walking, suddenly a monster wind blew on the street, which fascinated their eyes. After a while, seven or eight monsters emerged from the land, with strange looks.
The servants were immediately shocked and surrounded the old doctor, but the old doctor was not afraid and said to the monster:
"Mortals are suffering from lethargy, and monks can't escape. Now even monsters are coming to ask for help?"
The monsters were chattering, and one of the raccoon monsters jumped out: "Are you Li Jianyuan, the son of Li Shizhen?"
"It's me."
The old doctor admitted, and Li Yao immediately said: "We also have brothers here who are suffering from sleeping sickness. I heard that you have superb medical skills, so I came to invite you. But from what you said before, it seems that there is a strange disease in Xiangyang this time, and I am afraid that it cannot be treated with medicine! We are
I’m here to remind you that there is a place that can help the people here.”
"Last month, two people suffered from the same sleeping sickness and were transported to Wudang Mountain in the north by three corpse gods. They passed by us and were seen by us."
"Not ten days later, we heard that among the mountains south of Xiangyang, two big figures had gone to Wudang Mountain, and they inquired about some things with the monster brothers there. They seemed to be looking for the occurrence of this strange disease.
In the place of origin, those monster brothers also told us that if there is anything abnormal here, report it to Wudang immediately. We don’t know the details of this strange disease, so we are going to take you to Wudang Mountain, maybe you can gain something."
The old doctor suddenly became energetic and said: "How could such a thing happen! It shouldn't be delayed. I also ask you all the demon kings to take me along with you."
