"Today's weather is really cold!" As he was walking on the street, a gust of cold wind blew. Xiao Buyi shivered and hurriedly wrapped his leather robe tightly. "Supposedly, Changning City is on the seaside, and it is fairly close to the south. Now it is
It’s not winter yet, it shouldn’t be so cold!”
Wu Jie was walking next to him. When he saw his appearance, he frowned and released a spell to dispel the cold, but he couldn't help but sigh.
More than 20 years ago, on such a late autumn day, they held a prayer ceremony for the Chu Kingdom to help the Chu Kingdom, which had already declined, continue its destiny. At that time, Xiao Bu's clothes were majestic and full of wisdom.
It seems that nothing in the world can defeat him. Even if he wants to change the destiny of a country, it is just a challenge worth trying.
But in just twenty-four years, which is not worth mentioning compared to the time of Lian Gang Feixian, he has become as old as an old man on the street. Although his steps are still vigorous, his beard and hair are all white, and his figure is no longer tall and straight.
, the action is also full of twilight.
Xiao Buyi is fifteen years older than Wu Jie, and is ninety-one this year. Compared with ordinary people, he is naturally very old, but an innate master can live to be one hundred and fifty years old. As a refining flying immortal, he should have
He has a lifespan of at least four hundred years, and is only ninety years old, not even a quarter of it!
According to his age, Xiao Buyi should still be young and strong. But he is already old. The degree of his aging is surprising. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, even the most imaginative person would not have thought of a longevity talent.
After consuming less than a quarter of the immortal, he actually aged like this!
"Actually, you don't have to do it so thoroughly." Wu Jie couldn't help but advise, "Given your situation, it should be fine to use a little bit of zhenqi to keep out the cold."
"What's the need?" Xiao Buyi asked with a smile, "Since I have decided to reincarnate, all my actions must be prepared for the next life. A little cold in this life's body is nothing." Yes, he is ready to be reincarnated.
.Xiao Buyi thought hard for many years, but was still unable to overcome the shortcomings of Buyi's divine appearance, which was habitually triggered by inspiration and divination. Finally, he made up his mind to reincarnate and rebuild.
However, his method of reincarnation is different from that of ordinary monks. When ordinary monks want to reincarnate, they directly escape into the netherworld with their souls, and then plunge into the River Styx, hoping to have the opportunity to start over and embark on the road again. Xiao Buyi
As a descendant of Buyi Shenxiang's lineage, he has almost reached the point of mastery.
His ability to explore the world of Kyushu to the extreme, to spy on the secrets of heaven, and to change his destiny is unparalleled in this world. When he wanted to be reincarnated, he naturally had to do everything properly to ensure that he would have a good start after his reincarnation and not end up in the same situation again at the beginning.
Mistakes were made at that time, and in the end they were hard to come back from.
For this, he made many preparations.
Today, he wanted to test and see if those preparations could be as effective as he expected.
The two of them walked along the busy street and soon turned into a small alley. The alley was winding and turned several times, and finally ended in front of an inconspicuous small door.
Xiao Buyi walked to the door and knocked twice.
The small door opened quickly, and the two young men came out respectfully. Without saying anything, they just walked towards him and bowed deeply.
Xiao Buyi smiled and followed their lead around the labyrinth-like corridors, walking down the stairs from one step to the underground, and finally arrived in front of a altar purely carved from black stone.
This altar is not big, only one foot square, but it is extremely delicately carved, and every line is just right. The entire altar has been refined many times with pure magic power, and it seems to be a very sophisticated piece.
of magic weapon.
Next to the altar, Ning Feng, the contemporary national master of the Chu Kingdom, Huntian Hou, was wearing a Taoist robe and holding the magic sword that presided over the ceremony, bowing his head to pay tribute to Xiao Buyi.
"Uncle Master, I'm ready here."
Ning Feng was originally the disciple of the former imperial master Changchun Zhenren, but he was loyal to the Chu Kingdom and his master was not the same person. During the Dongshan County King Rebellion, Changchun Zhenren, who was of the same lineage as Xiao Buyi, brought Da Chu with him.
Disciple Sun Huangya helps the rebels
He started a rebellion and finally died at the hands of Wu Jie and Xiao Buyi. Ning Feng was subdued by Changchun Zhenren at that time and was not able to participate in the rebellion. He was not implicated afterwards. Instead, he took over the position of National Advisor because of his stargazing and divination skills.
location.
That was fifty-six years ago. Over the years, Xiao Buyi was more like a master than Ning Feng's uncle. He gave Ning Feng a lot of advice, and he also encountered troubles with Ning Feng many times.
He came to help when the time came. Compared to the Changchun master with ulterior motives, he was more like a guide on the road of cultivation, guiding Ning Feng to move in the right direction.
Ning Feng was naturally grateful for Xiao Buyi's advice. This time he learned that his uncle was going to be reincarnated, so he volunteered to go to Han and Vietnam and try to ask the monarchs of the two countries to issue an edict - these two edicts, plus
The share of the Great Chu Kingdom is the key to Xiao Buyi's success in reincarnation.
Not long after the founding of the country, the country of Dai Viet was booming; the country of Han had dominated the Central Plains for many years, and its power was at its strongest; the country of Chu, although still lingering on, had declined.
The fortunes of these three countries happen to be a cycle from prosperity to decline. Taking the three edicts as an introduction, this formation will temporarily borrow a little bit of the fortunes of the three countries to form a small closed cycle.
After this cycle is formed, Xiao Buyi will give up his body on the altar, and his soul will enter the cycle to be warmed and nourished. Through the power of this cycle, all the distracting thoughts of this life will be washed away, and the soul will be purified again.
This process takes thirty-six years. After thirty-six years, Xiao Buyi, who has only one pure soul left, will be directly reincarnated under the protection of Wu Jie, bypassing the process of soul washing in the Styx, making reincarnation controllable.
Avoid the possibility of accidents.
This method is not easy. Of course Xiao Buyi himself has to endure a lot of hardships, and the people involved also have to bear a lot of trouble. Fortunately, there is the edict of the Three Kingdoms as a guarantee, and Wu Jie who sent him to be reincarnated is also very lucky.
Master, only this plan has the possibility of success.
After the reincarnation is successful, the newly born person will be born with great spiritual wisdom. At that time, Su Lin will accept him as a disciple and teach him the more stable and perfect Taoism of the Buyi Shenxiang lineage after discussion and modification by his brothers.
.
Of course, the child will no longer remember anything from this life, but even though he has forgotten all the past events, he is still Xiao Buyi in his heart, and still carries Xiao Buyi's desire to keep moving forward, and even to knock on the sky.
At this point, even if many monks in the world are not as capable as Xiao Buyi, their desire to seek the Tao will not make any difference. The reason why Taoism in the Jiuzhou world can be continuously developed and improved is precisely because of the tireless efforts of generations of monks.
Research and improvement. The road to immortality is originally impossible to be walked by just one person. With the help of Ning Feng, Xiao Buyi carefully checked the altar and related things for the last time to make sure that everything was in good condition.
He showed a satisfied smile.
"The situation is good...then let's get ready."
"Eh? Uncle Master, why don't you wait for two more days? Wait for an auspicious day..."
"Auspicious days and so on are things that only ordinary people pay attention to. With my ability, which day is not a good day?" Xiao Buyi said with a smile, "Now that I am in a stable mood and full of confidence, it is the most suitable time."
Ning Feng and the disciples next to him all looked thoughtful, but Wu Jie smiled knowingly.
Xiao Buyi stopped talking to Ning Feng and others, and walked slowly up to the altar. With every step he took, his figure became more stooped, and the long, snow-white hair on his head gradually withered, and fell to the ground in strands. When he walked to the altar,
When he was in the middle of the stage, he was as old as a mummy.
The mummy-like figure nodded towards Wu Jie one last time, then sat feebly in the center of the altar.
At the same time, Ning Feng, who had practiced many times, immediately brought several disciples to cast spells together. Xiao Buyi's magical weapon "Red Dust Ten Thousand Character Flag", which he had used for many years, unfolded in his hand, and countless words floated in the air. Among the words,
The sounds of countless mortals' joy, anger, sorrow and joy can be vaguely heard.
Ning Feng is now a Refining Flying Immortal. The power of the Red Dust Ten Thousand Character Flag in his hand is no less than that controlled by Xiao Buyi himself. With just a spell, those messy words flew out in all directions, connected end to end, and turned into three lines.
Hongqiao connects the altar and the wall.
On the wall, three edicts personally approved by human emperors emitted a faint golden light, but the three golden lights were completely different: the golden light on the edict of Dai Viet Kingdom was like bamboo shoots springing up after a rain, giving out a breath of growth; the golden light on the edict of Han Dynasty was like a towering giant.
The trees exude a sense of stability; the golden light on the imperial edicts of the Chu Kingdom is like dead grass in late autumn, exuding an aura of decay.
The three breaths were continuously transmitted to the Dharma platform with the Hongqiao as a link. At this time, the formation on the Dharma platform had been activated, and a mysterious meaning slowly rotated, driving the three breaths to rotate together, gradually forming a circle.
Surrounding Xiao Buyi's withered body.
The ring turned smaller and smaller, and finally covered Xiao Buyi's body. Just as it covered Xiao Buyi's body, the body like a mummy suddenly shattered and turned into countless dust. In the dust, there was a person with closed eyes.
The translucent figure sits cross-legged and meditates, tightly wrapped in the circulating breath.
Wu Jie couldn't help but sigh as he watched the strange aura completely envelope the translucent figure, and then slowly sink into the altar.
He bowed to the altar as a final farewell to his old friend, and then in a flash, he had left the underground magic circle and arrived at the seawall of Changning City.
The sea breeze in late autumn blew hard, refreshing people's spirits. Wu Jie thought for a long time against the sea breeze, and finally nodded.
Xiao Buyi gave up three hundred years of his life, just for a chance to correct his mistakes and go to the supreme road. This was the path he chose, and now he has walked on it without hesitation.
As a friend, Wu Jie should be happy for him!
"Thirty-six years later, he will be reincarnated and then embark on the road again - I hope he can go further than before this time, and finally overcome the catastrophe and open the door to the sky!"
Wu Jie blessed him like this, turned around, and walked towards Changning City.
After walking only a few steps, he suddenly stopped and looked at the White Jade Tower not far away with some confusion.
The white building that has experienced many storms but remains stable is still one of the most famous sights in Changning City. On the low-key yet luxurious white jade steps at the entrance of the building, there are still wealthy people and officials coming and going.
However, among the figures that came and went from time to time, Wu Jie saw a slightly familiar face.
"Isn't this Mr. Mo Xiaoxian, the former minister of the Ministry of Industry? He must be a hundred years old this year... Judging from his appearance, he still looks middle-aged, but after hanging up his crown and going into seclusion, he has also succeeded in cultivation!
"
He couldn't help but smile slightly, walked abruptly to the White Jade Tower, and greeted Mo Xiaoxian, who was taking a few twelve or thirteen-year-old girls to visit the White Jade Tower: "Master Mo, you are all well!"
