"You can't be wrong, senior brother," Master Huang Long said hurriedly, "I will never admit the taste of peace. I followed him for a long time."
Guangchengzi pondered for a few times and walked slowly in his room.
Li Pingan fell asleep outside Yuxu Palace?
What does this mean? But what’s the deeper meaning?
Master Huang Long asked in a low voice: "Is it true that Ping'an has some unspeakable secrets, so he deliberately made such a gesture and waited for us to take the initiative to show concern? To be honest, Ping'an is a disciple of our Chan sect, but now he is very close to Jie sect, and he is doing this
Go down...well, it's hard to say this."
Guangchengzi looked at Huang Long helplessly: "Who was it that supported the Emperor of Heaven and left the Middle Way to talk about Taoism before he was halfway through his business?"
Huang Long sneered: "Well, senior brother, don't call me a poor man. I know I'm wrong."
"Remember, don't take your Taoist companion back to Yuxu Palace! If the teacher sees you, you know the consequences."
"Yes Yes."
Huang Long sighed: "The teacher has not punished me, and I am not at ease in my heart. Senior brother, do you think that if the teacher scolds me a few words, will this difficulty be over?"
Guang Chengzi raised his hand to shake his sleeves, sat back on the futon by the window, and looked down at where Li Ping'an was.
He said: "Among our brothers and sisters, except you, who has a good relationship with Ping An?"
Master Huang Long immediately said: "Taiyi, Junior Brother Taiyi speaks nicely and is sincere."
"Junior Brother Taiyi, are you nice to talk to? I think you are out of your wits because of your lust and your mind is unclear!"
"Then Junior Brother Yuding."
"Yuding is quite calm in doing things...forget it, let Cihang go and ask, the powerful female killer..."
Huanglong Zhenren puts his hands behind his hands and looks at the sky.
Guangchengzi raised his head and glared at Master Huang Long, and said angrily: "Please ask Junior Sister Cihang to come over and see the Emperor's condition. Is he injured or uncomfortable in any way?"
"Hey, yes."
Master Huang Long turned around and left in a hurry.
Guangchengzi shook his head, sat there and began to think hard, why did Li Ping'an sleep here.
'His figure is lying across the gate of Yuxu Palace. Does it mean that he will embarrass us next? But why does he want to embarrass Chanjiao? Chanjiao should not be the sharp knife in his hand, opening up territories for heaven.
, to fill in the powerful righteousness?'
Guangchengzi gradually became entangled.
Let's say that Master Huanglong left Guangchengzi's place in a hurry and subconsciously went to Yun Zhongzi's place for a stroll. He found that Yun Zhongzi had welcomed the Holy Driver and returned to Heaven to continue some research and development.
Huang Long could only look for Taoist Cihang at the moment.
Not long after, Taoist Cihang, holding a flower basket in his left hand and wearing a light gray loose skirt, slowly landed next to the crooked-neck tree in the clouds.
She moved very gently when she came, her own breath was hidden, and she didn't make any sound at this moment.
"His Majesty?"
Taoist Cihang called softly and put on a gentle and kind smile in advance.
However, what responded to her was Li Pingan's very weak snoring.
this?
Taoist Cihang was a little confused. Could it be that His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor was really tired?
Then, she felt a little ashamed when she thought of all the great things the human race man in front of her had done before.
Taoist Cihang thought of Brother Huanglong's advice, and immediately set up a futon and meditated quietly under the tree.
Li Ping'an actually noticed someone approaching, but he was a little too greedy for the freedom at the moment. The other party didn't show any hostility, so he simply didn't change the current situation.
The afternoon sun was still warm and a slight breeze came, but Li Ping'an didn't think about anything in his heart.
Like this, I don't know how long passed.
A wisp of Taoist rhyme floated quietly.
Li Ping'an's eyelids twitched slightly. He was already full of energy and his thinking was sharper than ever before.
'Sure enough, no matter how good the performance of the computer is, it still needs to be shut down occasionally to let the hardware rest.'
Li Ping'an followed the rhyme and found that Yu Ruyi, who seemed to be... Yuanshi Tianzun, had picked up someone.
He didn't know why, so he continued to look down and raised his eyebrows slightly.
A tall and thin middle-aged man was looking up from the woods at the foot of the mountain. He saw a corner of Yuxu Palace from a distance. He was fascinated by the fairy light and suddenly smiled.
"Really, are there really immortals?"
The man took long strides, his robe swaying slightly, and he started running wildly along the mountain road with great joy.
He is just a mortal and is not good at running around.
Not long after, he showed a little fatigue. He raised his head and wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, his eyes full of emotion.
Why is this mountain so high?
When can he seek immortality?
He turned his head and looked at the way he came, but saw that the way he came was a little unfamiliar. He also thought that he seemed to have been in a slight trance before, and when he regained consciousness, he was already here.
"Jiang Shang, Jiang Shang, the destiny of immortality is right in front of you, how can you look forward to it and sigh, haven't you suffered enough in this dirty place?"
The middle-aged man clapped his knees and hurried on. After walking for a while, he began to pant, so he found a dry branch to use as a stick and walked forward.
Li Pingan heard it.
Jiang Shang...which Jiang Shang?
Is Master so strong?
Could it be that when the six saints worked together to deduce the God-conferring Tribulation, each saint could see different things?
The understanding and utilization of the way of heaven by the saints of heaven cannot be underestimated.
Li Pingan looked at Jiang Shang carefully.
He is on the thin side, exuding a frail and scholarly air, but he is surrounded by some shallow karma, and it seems to be related to murder.
After the return of the Six Saints, the way of heaven has been restored to order, and everything calculated here has been restored to its original state.
In other words, the chaos in heaven caused by Li Dazhi has now been 'set right' by the Six Saints.
Li Ping'an did a little investigating and discovered that Jiang Shang had a great background.
He was actually an official of the Shang Kingdom, and was directly fished out of the Juetian Formation by Yuanshi Tianzun!
Jiang Shang just looks older, he is actually only in his twenties now.
He was a commoner of the Shang Kingdom. Under the shadow of his ancestors and the recommendation of his family's powerful people, he became a minor civil servant in the capital of the Shang Kingdom. He was responsible for...counting the number of humans and animals used in sacrifices.
Those karma should also come from this.
Why did Jiang Shang come here?
The way of heaven did not reveal this point. What Li Ping'an could deduce through the way of heaven was that there was only information about Jiang Shang's past. Jiang Shang's current situation was blocked by the saint.
And when Li Ping'an wanted to calculate again, he found...
There is no such person found in Heaven.
'Did Master just block the calculation for him?'
Li Ping'an smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that his master didn't want him to know that this Jiang Shang was the person who was responsible for the great catastrophe of the Conferred Gods.
Um?
Wait a minute, there's a problem here.
Now that Jiang Shang has appeared, his old father, the Immortal Chief of the Ministry of Finance in Heaven with great luck, has always been called the master of the Taoist Immortal Tribulation...
Eh? Jiang Shang is here, how can his father preside over the Great Tribulation of the Gods?
Li Ping'an felt that his newly awakened mind was starting to become chaotic again.
Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Shang came closer with a wooden stick. When he saw the female fairy sitting under the tree, he was suddenly excited.
Taoist Cihang had already seen Jiang Shang and noticed the trace of Taoism deliberately revealed by Yuanshi Tianzun. He did not dare to be careless at this moment and stood up to greet him.
A ray of fairy light came out from her fingertips, and Jiang Shang was suddenly filled with energy.
Jiang Shang hurried forward, bowed in a decent manner, and shouted: "I have seen an immortal! I beg the immortal to grant me immortality!"
"Fellow Taoist misunderstood."
Taoist Cihang shook his head with a smile and said softly:
"The one who can grant you immortality is not here. But see that immortal palace in front of you? That's where your immortality will be."
Jiang Shang bowed repeatedly. When he looked up, he accidentally saw Li Ping'an lying on a tree branch and was slightly startled.
'The descendant of this female immortal? This little brother looks very kind.'
"Thank you, Immortal, for your advice," Jiang Shang thanked him and lowered his head to continue climbing the mountain.
"Well," Li Ping'an made some noise, stretched and sat up, and called out, "Where is this mortal going?"
Jiang Shang swallowed, turned around and saluted Li Pingan.
He said: "This mortal is going to the mountains to find immortality..."
Li Ping'an smiled and said: "Xianyuan? Who are you? Do you know what kind of place this is?"
Taoist Cihang blinked gently beside him.
She didn't know why Li Ping'an was interested in this mortal, but this mortal was sent by the teacher himself, so there was something unusual about it.
Therefore, Cihang took the initiative to introduce: "Fellow Taoist, please don't lose your etiquette. This young immortal in front of you is amazing..."
"Hey," Li Ping'an raised his hand and said warmly, "Uncle, please don't praise me, I can't stand it."
Cihang smiled and nodded.
Jiang Shang whispered: "My dear Immortal, my name is Jiang Shang. I am from the Shang Dynasty. Because I hate the mortal world and envy the immortal way, I came here to pursue my fate and become a disciple to practice."
"Shangguo?"
Li Ping'an wondered: "How can people from the Shang Kingdom appear here? This place is at least 108,000 miles away from the Shang Kingdom."
"ah?"
Jiang Shang was stunned, and then said: "I just feel a little dazed..."
"And let me ask you," Li Ping'an crossed his arms and walked to Jiang Shang, "The Shang Kingdom is in Nanzhou, and I am familiar with it. How can there be immortality there? It is the master of the divine court, and there are few temples for the Holy Mother.
.”
Jiang Shang smiled bitterly: "Well, you won't believe it. I have been dreaming about it since I was a child. In the dream, a gray-haired old immortal came on a crane and passed me a talisman. So I searched through ancient books and learned about practicing Qi and cultivating immortals.
Things."
"oh?"
"Everything I say is true!"
"In that case," Li Ping'an said, "I can't embarrass you too much. Let's go, I'll take you up."
A white cloud appeared under Li Ping'an's feet and lifted Jiang Shang up.
Jiang Shang's eyes widened, and his feet were stuck in the white clouds, so there was no risk of falling down.
The white clouds slowly drifted towards Yuxu Palace.
Taoist Cihang followed behind in a cloud and watched the play leisurely.
Li Ping'an asked: "You said you hate the mortal world?"
"Yes," Jiang Shang smiled bitterly.
"Why do you hate the mortal world?" Li Ping'an asked, "Is your career not going well?"
"No," Jiang Shang said, "Do you know about human and animal sacrifices?"
"Of course I know."
Jiang Shang sighed: "I was very excited when I saw human beings being slaughtered like cattle and sheep for the first time, because people around me told me that this was the most cherished tribute to God."
Li Pingan frowned and asked: "Respect?"
"Yes," Jiang Shang subconsciously put his hands behind his back and picked up the accent, but he found that he had left the familiar environment and quickly put his arms down.
He said seriously:
"Now I am sure that there is something wrong with Shang State, but I can't tell where the problem is.
"Initially, what made me doubt the existence of God and the usefulness of our sacrifices was that after a sacrifice, the general who was supposed to win died in a distant battle, and only 60% of the more than 100,000 elite soldiers and horses escaped.
"And the result of that sacrifice and the divination should have been a great victory.
"Then I went to check what happened after each large-scale sacrifice, and calculated it all... There is no connection between the results of the sacrifice and the direction of subsequent events.
"I was quite shocked at the time. I checked it sleeplessly for several days and nights and concluded a pattern.
"God may have never responded to the call of the people."
Li Pingan nodded slowly: "What then?"
"After another half a year, I decided to report this matter to King Shang!"
Jiang Shang sighed:
"Unfortunately, when my bamboo slips were delivered to the hands of the chief officer, he threw them into the furnace.
“Then I was told that I needed to go home and reflect.
"Well, later on, there was no place to tell the truth. Everyone thought I was a lunatic. The kings of all generations have ascended to heaven to serve God.
"I've been disheartened since then."
"I see."
Li Pingan nodded slowly:
“The belief of businessmen is that their ancestors will serve God after death, and they kill animals in order to send people to serve their ancestors.
"In the eyes of merchants, if they can capture those kings and leaders, that is, the higher the status of their enemies, the more qualified they are to serve the ancestors of the Shang kings.
"Don't you think these have any merit?"
"Merit?
"It is true to believe in the ancestors, but it is obvious that these are not worthy... The soldiers fought and won, and in the end it was us who were responsible for the sacrifices who got the reward, as if the soldiers just went out for a walk."
Jiang Shang kept shaking his head:
"I have also thought about the Zhongmen death remonstrance.
"But...after all, I am still a bit cowardly. Even if I take five steps with blood splattered, the king will not even look at me, a small official."
Li Ping'an nodded with a smile and reminded: "We are about to arrive at Yuxu Palace. You go first and I will visit later."
Jiang Shang came back to his senses and quickly handed over his hands: "Thank you, immortal, for escorting me."
"My name is Li Ping'an," Li Ping'an said with a smile, "If you go out of Yuxu Palace in the future and someone gives you trouble, just give me my name. It should be useful."
"Thank you, immortal, for taking care of me."
Baiyun divided into two halves, and one half sent Jiang Shang to the main hall of Yuxu Palace.
Li Pingan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Jiang Shang, a small official in the Shang Dynasty...
When he went to Chaoge, he didn't find this personage. Was it intentional?
Taoist Cihang flew up from behind and said with a smile: "Your Majesty actually cares so much about a mortal?"
"Mortal? He is not an ordinary mortal."
Jiang Shang's shouts came from below: "Mortal Jiang Shang! Come here to find immortality! Ask the immortal to give you the method of practice! Jiang Shang is grateful!"
A soft call came from the hall, but it was Yuanshi Tianzun himself who spoke:
"Come in."
A saint personally summons a mortal?
Taoist Cihang also frowned slightly.
Li Ping'an turned around and asked: "Uncle Master, does Chan teach have any disciples named Shen?"
"Shen?" Taoist Cihang calculated with his fingers, "I have never heard of it."
Li Pingan was immediately confused.
No, what about Shen Gongbao?
If the Great Tribulation of the Gods follows the normal script, wouldn't it mean that both Jiang Ziya and Shen Gongbao are explaining their teachings and practice, and Shen Gongbao is dissatisfied with Jiang Ziya's being on the list of gods...?
Li Ping'an didn't know how to complain for a moment.
A bit messy.
It stands to reason that Shen Gongbao should have worshiped the Chan Cult a long time ago. Is it possible that his father, a man of great luck, has nothing to do with the Dao Immortal Tribulation?
Li Ping'an raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, but Yuanshi Tianzun's call came from the hall:
