Zhou Zheng lay expressionless on the roof, counting the support poles of the parasol.
Ye Yan'er lay there with his ankle on her pillow.
The two formed a non-standard '7' shape.
Ye Yan'er was quietly comprehending his Qingmu Dao, and Zhou Zheng was not stingy, instilling part of the Dao's insights into Ye Yan'er. It was up to her to comprehend as much as she could accept.
"Didn't you want to practice Pure Yang Wuji before?"
"One master and one master," Zhou Zheng's eyes continued to lose focus, and he murmured, "I also wanted to find the Pure Yang Avenue in the Sea of Dao Ze, but I found that the Sea of Dao Ze only has the Dao of Yin and Yang Balance. If there is no lonely Yang, I can only
I followed the path of wood, which is the foundation of the material world, so I had the enlightenment of Aoki."
"Uh, isn't it too aggressive for you to practice like this?"
Ye Yan'er turned over, lying on her side and watching Zhou Zheng, and put her delicate hands on Zhou Zheng's calf to avoid being hurt by his bones.
She said: "I heard people say that in the final analysis, spiritual practice is about cultivating essence, energy, and spirit. If you don't cultivate essence, if you focus on one spirit for nearly three hundred years, it will definitely cause imbalance."
"Hey, do you still know this?"
"That's right," Ye Yaner narrowed her eyes and smiled.
Zhou Zheng looked down and saw her laziness and coquettishness when she was half-lying down. Her Adam's apple was shaking up and down, and she calmly looked away.
Ye Yan'er's smile became even stronger.
"Will you really call me Sister Yan'er from now on?"
"Yes, sister."
Zhou Zheng said vaguely: "Shout first and then talk."
Ye Yan'er rolled her eyes and snorted: "Scumbag."
"I am innocent...ah, I am no longer an innocent boy."
"You and Ao Ying?"
"hey-hey."
Ye Yan'er snorted and turned away. Although she was a little angry, she did not stop accepting and giving Zhou Zheng a back view.
"Sister, why are you still wearing gelcoat?" Zhou Zheng said with a smile, "Will your skin turn gray?"
Ye Yaner ignored him.
Zhou Zheng rubbed the tip of his nose and continued to stare at the frame of the large parasol in a daze.
It moved, and the desert-like Yang Qi began to move.
Zhou Zheng didn't know what to talk to Ye Yan'er. If he talked too deeply, he would be afraid that his yang energy would be more agitated. If he talked too shallow, he would be afraid that Sister Yan'er would feel that he doesn't care about the relationship between sister and brother.
"Sister, are you tired outside?"
"It's okay," Ye Yan'er sighed, "No matter where you go, you have a limited time. Go to a place, find a fragment, and then take a look at the scenery everywhere. These three realms are quite interesting."
"That's good. How long will it take for you to collect these fragments of the law of life?"
"About ten years, if everything goes well."
Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "If it only takes ten years, it will really be a shortcut to Taoism."
"What about you? I can't sense your current cultivation level."
Ye Yan'er sat up and moved to Zhou Zheng's side. She arched her legs, hugged her knees with her hands, and looked down at Zhou Zheng, who was lying flat on his arms.
Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows and said slowly:
"The spiritual thoughts are much more powerful than before, and the Aoki Avenue is close to being cleared. However, in the future, the Pure Yang Wuji will still have to be the main one, and the Aoki Avenue can only be replaced by the Nine Great Perfections of the Pure Yang Wuji.
"In the Sea of Dao, I felt the imprint left by the first life, Qinghua Emperor, Taiyi Ku Tianzun, and absorbed all these imprints, and I have the current Tao realm."
Ye Yan'er probably understood: "According to Taoism, are you close to becoming a Golden Immortal?"
Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows but didn't reply.
"Then what are you going to do next?" Ye Yan asked, "When I rescue you, I should meet the Queen Mother."
"Um."
Zhou Zheng sighed:
"It's a pity that this method - I mean, the method of traveling hundreds of years ago and then practicing all the way back can only be used this time. The Queen Mother and Tiandao already know it.
"For Tiandao, what you know now is what you knew in the past. All creation-level masters can stand beyond the long river of time, look at the past, and influence their past selves to varying degrees. Tiandao can definitely do this."
Ye Yan'er wondered: "Then why didn't you just start retreating from three thousand or thirty thousand years ago, hide in the rocks and understand the Qingmu Avenue thoroughly before coming back?"
Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "It's impossible."
"Why?"
"God's way."
"Um...oh, yes," Ye Yan'er said, "Tiandao couldn't notice your little moves. It was the Great Heavenly Lord who severely injured you more than three hundred years ago, and that gave you the opportunity to cheat."
Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of smiles.
The two looked at each other for a moment.
Ye Yan'er's eyes seemed to contain a thousand words.
Zhou Zheng's eyes were very clear, without too many distracting thoughts.
"What are you going to do next?" Ye Yaner took the initiative to initiate the topic.
Zhou Zheng said: "There are a lot of things to do."
"Would it be risky?"
"Adventures are inevitable," Zhou Zheng said softly, "Sister, do you understand the current situation?"
Ye Yan'er glanced at the time and said, "I still have about a quarter of an hour, so hurry up."
"Then let me briefly summarize it for you: the enemy is strong and we are weak, the enemy is fierce and we are hungry.
"The other party should have had a timetable, which is what to do in this stage, what to do in the next stage, and then step by step to strangle all the forces that resist them.
"But now, because of my activeness - of course, mainly due to Laojun's plan, the evil side of Heaven is bound to speed up again. They have a deep foundation, and our strength has been clearly stated."
Zhou Zheng added quietly:
"This is not the most difficult thing. The most difficult thing is that our big boss cannot directly intervene in the three realms. Once the evil thoughts of heaven swallow up Yang Jian, the three realms can directly enter the countdown.
"Time is on the enemy's side.
"If they succeed, it may be that Heaven transforms into a mortal, or it may be that Heaven destroys all living beings and leaves seeds behind to sow again.
"The former is the most optimistic guess, and the latter is the most probable scenario.
"It's difficult."
Ye Yan'er didn't know how to comment for a moment: "Isn't that a sure defeat? Xiao Zheng, I mean hypothetically, is there another possibility, that is, we go to the opposite camp to develop?"
"Surrendering to the enemy? I can't bear it on my conscience."
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything," Ye Yan'er clicked her tongue, "In the worst case, we can hide in the Sea of Chaos."
Zhou Zheng said earnestly: "Comrade Yanzi, your capitulationism is unacceptable!"
"What should we do?"
"Try to see if you can survive from a desperate situation," Zhou Zheng said with a smile. "Use your subjective initiative to find opportunities hidden in desperate situations. Zhiyong often said that the great road is fifty, the heaven is forty-nine, and the way of heaven itself has flaws.
If we can grasp this escaping oneness, we can use small means to achieve big results."
Ye Yaner hummed: "I feel like you are closer to Li Zhiyong than me now."
"That's for sure," Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, "You are wise, brave and considerate."
Ye Yan'er prepared to fight, Zhou Zheng quickly begged for mercy, quickly adjusted his expression, and said seriously: "I will leave Blue Star soon."
Ye Yan'er frowned and said, "Where exactly are you going?"
"Star Road."
Zhou Zheng looked at the parasol, but he seemed to be able to see the starry sky.
"I want to start from Blue Star, take the disaster away from Blue Star, and make this place the last fortress of the Futian Alliance. This can be regarded as an explanation to the folks of Blue Star. This is my hometown after all, and I have selfish motives.
"
He then said:
"I have to find ways to disrupt the opponent's offense.
"A week later, Emperor Ziwei will fight against the Golden-winged Dapeng, and at the same time there will be a gathering of immortals from the Jietian Sect. The former is not very important, that is, Emperor Ziwei will come out to show off, which can be regarded as boosting our own morale.
"The latter is a huge trouble. It is very likely that the Jietian Sect will drive the demon clan to formally bring out their new order, make promises to the demon clan, and then launch an all-out war in the three realms.
"By then, the Futian Alliance's front will be severely reduced."
Ye Yan'er frowned slightly and asked, "Then what are you doing after leaving Blue Star?"
"It's a guerrilla fight," Zhou Zheng said with a smile. "If you have to use tactics, I will use myself as the target to disrupt the enemy's retreat."
Ye Yan'er said softly: "What should I do if the Queen Mother directly comes to trouble you?"
Zhou Zheng said: "It depends on whether we can find a way to contain the Queen Mother."
"It's still too risky..."
Ye Yan'er said softly, but when she saw Zhou Zheng's smiling face, she knew she couldn't persuade him.
"Okay, just take care of yourself. I'll go shopping in the city and buy some snacks and stuff to take with me."
"Do you want money?"
Zhou Zheng said: "I'll ask instructor Xiaoyue to give you some."
"Here's a robbery, no matter what currency you want, you're so stingy and you don't know how to change it!"
Ye Yan'er rolled her eyes, stood up and stretched out, and then her figure disappeared.
Moving, Zhou Zheng felt that the yang energy in his body was moving again.
There is a saying that goes well, people can endure hell because they have never seen heaven.
Well, that kind of thing is almost the same.
After living as a monk for more than three hundred years, Zhou Zheng now had the urge to go to Wubuzhou to visit his little fish, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
As soon as Ye Yan'er left, Zhou Zheng planned to take a nap to relax his mind, but Mu Zha floated over beside him.
"Emperor, I have a favor to ask of you, young monk."
Zhou Zheng immediately became confused: "Wang Zhe, just say it directly."
"That's right," Mu Zha said, "I have a foster sister..."
Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "Well, I know, she is an elegant golden-nosed white-haired mouse spirit, Mrs. Diyong."
"Not this foster sister."
Muzha sighed:
"During the Demon Sealing Tribulation in Journey to the West, she was imprisoned in a prison by my father after she was captured by my father. Although she was not severely punished later, my father always felt that his face was disgraceful, so he severed ties with her.
"Well, I also have a foster sister."
Zhou Zheng's forehead was covered with black lines.
This, Li Tianwang is quite talented.
"That is?"
"She is Mrs. Diyong's sister," Mu Zha showed a somewhat embarrassed smile, "She is also my father's adopted daughter."
Zhou Zheng:......
Mu Zha sighed: "My father went to recognize this adopted daughter before he was caught by the Queen Mother. Now she is also a demon clan, and her cultivation level has advanced very quickly. She is already on a star, and has become a small person.
Not a small boss.
Yue Wushuang was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously.
Zhou Zheng said: "Especially regarding the public's right to know, Wushuang, please pay attention. Step by step, let everyone be exposed to practice at different levels, spread the opportunities for practice, and establish a mechanism to screen one's own moral character."
"Yes, monitor, I've written it all down."
"Can I follow you?" Xiaoyue whispered, "Although I can't understand your cultivation level now, I can still be a mount."
Bing Ning: "How decent is it to ride a dog?"
"That's right," Xiao Sheng said with a smile, "just like our squad leader doesn't have a decent mount. I think the horse demon from before is pretty good."
Zhou Zheng said: "The problem now is how do we contain the Queen Mother so that the other party cannot come and kill me directly."
Everyone fell silent immediately.
"Actually, there is a question that we have never thought about," Li Zhiyong said with a smile, "Why doesn't the Queen Mother come directly to Blue Star to assassinate the squad leader?"
Xiao Sheng muttered: "Such a great master does things unscrupulously? Wouldn't that make him lose all his prestige?"
"No," Zhou Zheng said, "I discovered a problem this time, that is, the Queen Mother was a little weak when King Li Tian suffered."
Li Zhiyong also said: "I have experienced it up close, and I feel that the Queen Mother may have been reincarnated and rebuilt."
Zhou Zheng said: "The Queen Mother has been dormant for three hundred years, could it be because she is not completely sure to suppress Emperor Ziwei? The reason why she appeared in the Dragon Clan seems to be forced by the situation."
"Squad leader, you mean that the Queen Mother is also a paper tiger at this stage?"
"It's very possible, but we don't have definite information."
Zhou Zheng said slowly: "So, later I plan to burn my and Zhiyong's plan to Laojun. If Laojun agrees, we will set off."
Xiao Sheng said helplessly: "Why don't you explain everything to us clearly?"
"What's the use of explaining clearly?" Yue Wushuang rolled her eyes, "I dare to criticize you."
Xiao Sheng smiled bitterly.
Bing Ning said: "The only one who can contain the Queen Mother is Laojun."
"Indeed," Li Zhiyong nodded slightly, lowered his head and kept thinking.
Zhou Zheng said slowly: "Then let's make a decision for the time being. If Lao Jun allows me, the four of us, Zhiyong, Brother Xiao, and Instructor Bing Ning, will travel. The departure time will be in the early morning three days later.
Before Emperor Ziwei comes to Blue Star, I will tell you the target star later, let’s fish in troubled waters and sneak away people while they are in trouble.”
Bing Ning said: "When starting the journey to the west, shouldn't there be more of a sense of ceremony?"
Zhou Zheng and Li Zhiyong looked at each other and almost said in unison:
"It's important to save your life."
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road and meets familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There is no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they are indifferent to everything.
Regarding this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, it also has some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Slayer Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and eventually he is expected to become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possess the memory of the previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Different from other places in the Demon Suppression Division that are full of chills, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppression Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment just changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, causing him to frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Zhenmo Division.
