After hearing what Taiqing Laozi said, Hongjun couldn't help but frown.
"Why are you leaving again? Can't I let you stay for a thousand years?"
Hongjun sighed:
"Didn't we agree that after staying here for thousands of years, the Six Saints will return to the prehistoric world together, so as not to break the balance of the prehistoric world."
"Why does the teacher insist on asking me to stay for a thousand years?"
"A thousand years is but a blink of an eye."
"It has only been a few decades here, but many things have happened in the world. It seems that the teacher intends to let the six leaders leave the world."
Taiqing Laozi fell down and said slowly:
"And something has happened in the world that makes Pindao very concerned."
"You mean, the piece of cloth that fellow Taoist Fuxi gave to Ping'an?"
Taoist Hongjun had some thoughts in his eyes. He held a chess piece with his slender fingertips and bumped it gently against the edge of the chessboard.
Hongjun said slowly: "This matter is indeed out of my control. At that time, Li Ping'an was probably just an ordinary disciple in the mountain, not even an orthodox Taoist disciple. You and I will not pay any attention to it."
Taiqing paused and looked up at Hongjun. Those old eyes seemed to be able to see through all confusion.
Hongjun looked at him calmly.
After an unknown amount of time, the two old men here did not care about the time scale of a few hours.
Taiqing lowered his gaze back to the chessboard and continued: "Teacher knows a lot of things that we don't know."
"I know everything in this world, all the truth, and everything unknown."
Hongjun sneered:
"But that doesn't make me detached.
"So many times I have to stay silent, or pretend to be confused, and wait for things to develop."
Taiqing dropped a son: "After Li Ping'an first resonated with Tiandao, I have calculated everything about him before and after, but I failed to calculate this piece of cloth."
"oh?"
Hongjun raised his eyebrows slightly: "You can't even count? Taoist fellow Fuxi is really powerful."
Taiqing took action to lure away a few of the surrounded children, and said slowly: "Teacher, you are going to lose again."
"It's not the end yet, don't be impatient."
Hongjun said slowly:
"If it's just for this little thing, it won't be of any use if you go back.
"Does Fellow Taoist feel that the current direction of the world is not in line with what Fellow Taoist thinks?
"The Dragon Clan has returned to its homeland, and Heaven is developing steadily. Li Ping'an and your disciples have just killed dozens of innate gods and demons. Heaven will be born in less than six or seven hundred years... It will only take six or seven hundred years for this world to exist.
Are there any other big variables?
"The variables now are all in the Sea of Chaos."
"I don't know what the teacher is planning."
Taiqing Laozi responded calmly:
"If the teacher is willing to tell the truth, I will keep my promise and stay here for a thousand years until the six saints return to heaven and earth."
Taoist Hongjun smiled and sighed: "What I did was just my own detachment."
Taiqing, I haven’t spoken for a long time.
The black and white pieces on the chessboard were arranged at random, and the killing move loomed, and only the big dragon was taken. Hongjun was quickly restrained everywhere, and soon he lost the whole game.
Taiqing Laozi said slowly: "Teacher, can you let me go back?"
"How could a fellow Taoist with such a status go back on his word?"
Hongjun looked depressed and sighed in a low voice:
"You have promised me several times before that you will wait here for a thousand years.
"Yes, I don't teach you much, but we still have a master-disciple relationship, right?
"If you just leave like this, there's no need for my old face."
If anyone else were here, their jaws would probably drop.
This master of the Sanqing Dynasty, who had never been in harmony with the world and was still famous in the world, was actually playing the emotional card at this moment and looked very hurt.
However, Saint Taiqing frowned and remained silent.
Actually I really like this.
Taiqing said: "As long as the teacher is willing to answer something, I will continue to wait here."
"Look, you're making a request again," Hongjun said helplessly, "After all, it's because the apprentice is so good that he can't help himself. Now that I'm no match for you, you start scolding me in every possible way?"
Taiqing was unmoved and asked, "Is Mr. Fuxi still alive?"
Several rays of light flashed in Hongjun's eyes, like an ax blade splitting Hongmeng's head, like a divine thunder piercing the darkness.
After a long time, Hongjun said softly: "That depends on how you understand life."
Taiqing closed his eyes and sighed softly, without saying much.
Moo——
Suddenly I heard a cow mooing outside Zixiao Palace, and a green cow came from nowhere and waited quietly outside Zixiao Palace.
Taiqing raised his right hand tremblingly and drew a talisman out of thin air.
Three green lotuses slowly rose from behind Taiqing, and the three green lotuses opened, revealing three figures that were indistinguishable from Taiqing.
The three corpses bear witness to each other, and they are close to the great road.
The green lotus on the left swayed slightly, and the good corpse flew out from it and landed three feet away behind Taiqing.
The phantom of the Tai Chi diagram appeared from behind Tai Qing, covering up the corpse, and then disappeared after circling twice.
Looking at the good corpse again, it is completely different from the original Taiqing Laozi. His body gradually becomes taller, his old face has lost its wrinkles, his long gray hair has regained its luster, and the Taoist robes on his body have also gained the shadow of gossip.
The good corpse not only changed its appearance, but also gained its own personality. At this moment, he nodded slightly to Taiqing, and then looked at Hongjun warily.
Seven or eight streams of light flew out of Taiqing Laozi's sleeves. They were various treasures, including a stove for alchemy, a gourd containing elixirs, and a banana fan to fan the fire.
After collecting all the good corpses, he put a whisk on his arm and bowed to Taiqing.
"Do you have any instructions, fellow Taoist?"
Taiqing exuded a wisp of Taoist rhyme and spoke slowly: "Go... to protect... Heavenly Court..."
"Good, poor Taoist calls himself Taishang Laojun."
The good corpse already knew what he wanted to do, and he bowed to Taiqing again:
"The green ox is outside, and the poor Taoist will go away. Fellow Taoists do not need to worry too much about the safety of the Heavenly Court and the Heavenly Emperor."
After saying this, the old man who called himself Taishang Laojun turned around and left.
Hongjun was about to speak but stopped.
It’s not that he didn’t want to stop the old man;
It is actually because the aura and Taoist charm of Taiqing's original body has not decreased at all, and he is still as strong as a saint. However, although the strength of the old Taoist transformed from Taiqing's good corpse is lower than Taiqing's original body, he is on par with him.
between.
Hongjun couldn't stop him at all.
Hongjun sighed: "Is there any difference between this and your body going back?"
"Don't show up unless... necessary..."
Taiqing spoke slowly, then pointed at the chessboard, and one word popped out of his mouth:
"chess."
Hongjun smiled bitterly, then raised his head and sighed, and simply stopped caring about anything else and exchanged black and white pieces with Taiqing.
In front of Zixiao Palace, Laojun sat on the green bull and walked slowly towards the depths of the Chaos Sea, as if he was going to find something in the Chaos Sea.
Hongjun frowned and said, "Isn't Laojun going back to heaven and earth?"
"late……"
Taiqing made the move casually without saying much.
Hongjun suddenly looked deceived, his smile full of bitterness.
He casually put a layer of cloud mirror on the chessboard and began to observe everywhere in the ancient world.
…
In the empty realm, the emperor's sleeping palace.
Li Ping'an stretched and slowly stood up from the soft couch. He glanced at Mu Ningning, who was already meditating in the corner of the soft couch, wearing only a gauze skirt. He couldn't help but move forward to interrupt her practice.
"Oh, senior brother, please stop making trouble."
Mu Ningning said depressedly:
"I just had some insights, maybe I can hold some inspiration."
Li Ping'an pinched her cheeks that swelled with anger, and said with a smile: "I finally gave myself a holiday. If you don't say you accompany me on sightseeing, you only know how to practice."
"Okay, okay," Mu Ningning giggled, "Since His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven has sincerely invited you, then I will accompany Your Majesty for a walk."
Li Pingan suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Mu Ningning dressed up quickly, so she couldn't let the mighty Emperor wait for her for too long.
Li Ping'an simply changed into a green robe and studied the glow of the Lingtai for another half an hour. Then he and Mu Ningning left the dormitory arm in arm and rode the clouds towards a pool and waterfall near the Heavenly Court Station.
They didn't need to hide their figures. The Qi refiners everywhere just watched from a distance when they saw them. Dozens of Heaven's Wrath Guards on duty followed them everywhere.
Next to the waterfall, in a clear shallow pool, Li Ping'an took out two deck chairs, built a barbecue grill, put up a parasol, and built a fishing rod.
You can eat whatever you catch today.
Whether you can catch it or not depends on whether the fish in the pool will give His Majesty the Emperor this honor.
Mu Ningning asked: "Senior brother, are you okay?"
"It's okay for the time being," Li Ping'an said with a smile, "I will focus on being with you for the next half month, and then continue to work as the Emperor of Heaven."
"That's pretty much it."
Mu Ningning suddenly smiled with satisfaction.
She got the wine and put it on ice in the pool, then tilted her head and watched Li Ping'an swing the hook.
Li Ping'an grabbed her catkins and randomly picked a topic: "I heard that you punished several fairies some time ago?"
"Yes," Mu Ningning sighed softly, "They are a few dancers. They are responsible for rehearsing dances on weekdays and also receiving some offerings in the heaven. I happen to be in charge of them."
Li Ping'an asked: "What mistake did they make?"
"It's not a big mistake."
Mu Ningning held her chin and whispered:
"This is just a desire to be in the limelight. The little fairy was restless and wanted to seize the opportunity to attract the attention of the leaders in heaven. She deliberately walked into a conspicuous position during the dance, forcing other fairies to have no choice but to act as foils and secretly change their clothes.
…
"Everyone was supposed to dress more elegantly, but they were the only ones who changed their clothes temporarily.
"Eh...very scheming."
Li Pingan shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Then how did you punish him?"
Mu Ningning raised his hand and made two strokes: "Twenty years of punishment with a wooden stick, three years of shutting up to reflect on one's mistakes, and ten years of fine."
Li Ping'an wondered: "Why not just let them leave the heaven?"
"I originally thought that it would be better for a woman like this not to stay in Heaven, but there was an old woman interceding next to me and said that it was almost settled."
Mu Ningning snorted softly:
"Then I kicked the old woman out of Heaven and changed her to two teachers.
"Although my cultivation is not good and my abilities are not good, I am still the married woman of my senior brother Ming Yuan. She even told me that I can do it."
"Hahaha!"
Li Pingan smiled heartily and really wanted to pinch the bulging corners of her mouth.
But now we are outside, and it is not good to be too intimate. It is easy for a group of old human immortals to write a letter saying, "His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven is letting his body wander."
Mu Ningning asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, is the Dragon Clan just surrendering?"
"if not?"
Li Pingan said warmly:
"Thanks to Lord Anan for this, this guy actually wants to unite the innate gods and demons to fight against the heaven.
"This is also the last resort of Venerable Ernan after he was cornered.
"He didn't know the consequences of doing so. The result was that the Dragon Clan was damaged, hated the Western religion deeply, and lost his home.
"Although the prehistoric world is huge, there are not many places for the Dragon Clan to go. If they only go to the three thousand small worlds, they won't be able to save their face. And if the Six Saints return after more than nine hundred years, the power structure in this world will be instantly fixed.
"If the Dragon Clan chooses to join a saint force, it cannot go to the Western Sect. Otherwise, it will have no place to show its face, so it will have to choose our Heavenly Court."
Li Pingan stretched out comfortably:
"After taking care of the Dragon Clan, I can then rest in peace and quiet in the Kongmeng Realm for a period of time, do research, and meditate on Zen enlightenment.
"By the way, Ning Ning, do you want to go to the army for training? The next step is to conquer the outside world step by step, and there won't be much resistance. After Lord Anan is gone, the evil demons of the Western religion are leaderless, just like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
generally."
Mu Ningning thought for a while and slowly shook her head: "If I don't want to go, can I go and walk between heaven and earth?"
"This, I'm afraid, won't work."
Li Pingan apologized:
"I am the one who got you into trouble. You are now the official wife of the Emperor of Heaven. If you are in the Heavenly Court or in the army, I can protect you.
"This world seems peaceful, but in fact there are undercurrents. It's just that under the influence of our heaven, there are many small and intertwined small power groups."
"Senior brother is saying that Ziyao will be detrimental to me?"
Mu Ningning blinked:
"I obviously get along well with her.
"Furthermore, senior brother, you may have been prejudiced against Ziyao before, but she is actually very good, gentle, gentle, knowledgeable, and has never been hostile to me."
Li Ping'an smiled and combined the two recliners and took her into his arms.
"She represents a force, and behind it are the interests of a group of people. Sometimes she doesn't need to do anything, and the interest group behind her will take action on its own."
Li Pingan sighed:
"And I have something to discuss with you."
"Marry me, I agree," Mu Ningning said with a smile, "This has been going on for so many years, I can't be a bad person in the world."
"That's not it. It is stated in the covenant between me and Ziyao that I will become a Taoist couple with her when the Heavenly Court is established."
Li Pingan muttered for a few times:
"I will certainly feel wronged to you when the time comes, but she has the same status as you, just like Xi and Wangshu back then."
Mu Ningning blinked: "What is that?"
"I want to have an heir," Li Ping'an said a little embarrassed, "I will try to find ways to get some pills for me to use. Ning Ning, you may have to suffer a lot."
Mu Ningning's pretty face turned red and she said angrily: "Why, why do you suddenly say this? I'm far behind you now... I just try my best to cooperate..."
Li Ping'an laughed a few times and began to act dishonestly.
Mu Ningning asked: "Why does senior brother suddenly want to have an heir?"
"This is embarrassing to say," Li Ping'an sighed, "Firstly, it is for practice, and secondly, it is to verify something."
"Verify one thing?"
"We will talk about this later. The revolution has not yet succeeded, and we still need to work hard."
Li Pingan stretched and threw a jade talisman out.
Niu Benben in the corner immediately appeared, holding the jade talisman in both hands, bowing his head and saluting Li Ping'an.
"To the Immortal Official Yun Chenzi."
"yes!"
Niu Benben lowered his head to accept the order, turned around and left quickly.
Li Ping'an closed his eyes and waited, continuing to stare at the glow of his spiritual platform. The thing that worried him most now was his father's next disaster.
However, what Li Pingan expected was...
More than 20 years later;
While he worked diligently on government affairs, practiced in seclusion, and engaged in scientific research in Kongmeng Realm, he mainly went to find his wife to be affectionate and close to him when he had time;
Mu Ningning still couldn't get pregnant.
Seeing Mu Ningning becoming anxious and haggard because of this incident, Li Ping'an secretly regretted why he told her about it in advance.
Not only Mu Ningning, but also Li Ping'an has often had trysts with the female slave for more than 20 years. The female slave is also recuperating herself, but she still has not been able to give birth to a child for the old Li family.
‘Brother’s little tadpole can’t do it?’
Li Ping'an was quite confused by this, but it happened that a letter came from Xuanyuan Palace, and the Emperor invited him to a banquet, saying that he had important matters to discuss.
Li Ping'an called Mu Ningning and decided to go to Senior Brother Xuanyuan for advice on this matter.
If there is an expert on the reproduction of the human race, he must be the original author of "The Treasure of the Reproduction of the Human Race".
On this day, the Dapeng Bird quietly left the Kongmeng Realm with a group of six people.
But what Li Ping'an didn't expect was that Huangdi Xuanyuan called him over this time because he really had something urgent to discuss.
