On the Three Immortals Island overseas, Zuo Ci and Yu Ji sat silently next to each other, with no sadness in their expressions, as if they were recounting a commonplace incident.
In fact, after Zhang Jiao died and the Yellow Turban Uprising was quickly suppressed, they knew that their years of planning had failed, and the remnants of the Yellow Turbans were completely used as waste, and were almost entirely handed over to Shuijing Academy for disposal.
Especially after obtaining the True Phoenix Fate from the original tomb, the attitude of the Three Immortals Sect has undergone a huge change.
"Brother!"
"Brother!"
At this moment, the main seat that had been vacant for a long time shone brightly, and the blue-eyed Nanhua Old Immortal appeared. Zuo Ci and Yu Ji immediately stood up and saluted. It seemed that the three immortals were standing together, but in fact they were clearly superior and inferior.
"The true phoenix destiny is indeed true!"
Nan Hua's first sentence determined the authenticity. Zuo Ci and Yu Ji were overjoyed. Just as they were about to speak, Nan Hua stopped them: "It's just that this destiny is not stable yet!"
"What do you mean by senior brother? Is it a trap set by the prince?"
Zuo Ci was puzzled and asked anxiously.
He invested so much that even the Dharma Protector Dunjia Heavenly Book was suppressed by Yuan Ling. If this was not stable, it would be a huge loss.
"Because Yin Lihua is still alive!"
Nan Hua told a shocking news: "She has become the ghost king in the underworld!"
Zuo Ci and Yu Ji thought about it and quickly figured out: "Yes! Yes! No wonder the Buddhists came to Liu Xiu's original tomb. They wanted to seize Yin Lihua's body. If she entered Buddhism and became a Bodhisattva, then the Buddhist teachings
Tu, how can the royal family stop it?"
The next moment, Zuo Ci suddenly changed his expression: "No, if Yin Lihua enters Buddhism, wouldn't Buddhism want to take back the true phoenix destiny in Hongchang's body?"
Nan Hua nodded: "That's exactly the truth!"
Zuo Ci said bitterly: "We must never let Buddhism succeed!"
Yu Jize rolled his eyes: "Where did senior brother get this news?"
Nanhua said: "Fengdu!"
"Such a coincidence..."
Yu Ji said slowly: "Could it be that the prince set up a trap and used us as swords to deal with Buddhism?"
Nan Hua's green eyes were slightly closed: "Is there ever a false destiny in the true phoenix?"
Yu Ji was startled, then nodded and said, "I understand."
Those who achieve the status of immortals have reached an extremely profound level of understanding of worldly affairs.
Even if the authorities are confused and calm down afterwards, they can deduce the truth.
But many traps are not so cleverly designed, but rather a bait that you have to take the bait.
The Yellow Turban incident was defeated, and the overseas immortals were completely eliminated. In this case, even if they knew that the prince had set up a trap, they still had to give it a try.
After all, the fate of the true phoenix is no better than others. Empress Lu and Liu Bang in the past are the best examples. Once the dragon and phoenix are determined, the overseas immortals will definitely be able to return to China and fulfill their long-cherished wish for four hundred years.
In comparison, the position of national master back then was more illusory. The overseas immortals had agreed, so there was no reason to back down this time.
"In the battle of Yuanling, we should help the Han Dynasty destroy the Buddha, but how can we enter this realm?"
Zuo Ci and Yu Ji already understood, but new difficulties arose.
The realm of Feng is no better than the others. Even if Nanhua has the respect of an immortal, he cannot enter lightly, otherwise he will inevitably be forcibly converted by Western Buddhism. The same is true for Zuo Ci and Yu Ji, so...
"Senior brother, are you going to let Ge Xuan go? He is my most proud disciple!"
At this moment, Zuo Ci faced Nan Hua's gaze, feeling dazed and pleading.
But Nan Hua remained unmoved.
"Call him!"
Zuo Ci sighed deeply and issued an order of pardon from the Three Immortals. Not long after, a dull young man came up to the hall.
Zuo Ci and Yu Ji looked at his figure reflected in the empty hall, their brows twitching slightly.
In addition to personally transmitting Zhang Jiao's three volumes of heavenly books and Taiping Taoism, Nanhua has always ignored secular customs. They basically trained the three immortals and ten heroes. They spent a lot of effort. Unexpectedly, this time they were designed by Buddhism and entered Yuanling.
.
I am afraid that the only one who can leave the original mausoleum safely in the end is Ren Hongchang.
Now even Ge Xuan has to be sent away?
I can't bear to part with it...
Nan Hua only had the overall situation of the world in his eyes: "Ge Xuan, you entered Taoism through the alchemy method, practiced the Golden Alchemy Sutra, then understood the Jiuding Sutra, and finally reached the Taiqing Alchemy Sutra. However, the alchemy method cannot be done behind closed doors. You have been on the island since you started.
Alchemy, I have never seen the outside world, now it’s time to travel to the Middle-earth China!”
Ge Xuan's almost dull eyes moved and he said slowly: "Master, what do you have to say?"
Nanhua nodded: "Enter the ghost town of Fengdu first, and I will give you instructions!"
…
…
"Shui Jing Academy, the inheritance is truly extraordinary!"
On the other side, Gu Chengfan was looking at the detailed explanation of the seventy-two magical powers of Disha, and looked at Zhou Yu in front of him: "What a thief you are!"
Zhou Yu, however, had a clear look in his eyes: "Which one is more important, the king or the prince?"
Gu Cheng smiled and asked, "When did you enter Shuijing Academy?"
Zhou Yu said: "Enrolled in the palace in Guanghe's third year!"
Gu Cheng asked again: "When will it become the Eight Wonders of the Water Mirror?"
Zhou Yu said: "Thanks to the teacher's respect, I was selected as a disciple that year."
The two of them asked and answered questions, and Gu Cheng quickly got a general idea of Shuijing Academy, but Zhou Yu said he didn't know any of the key secrets.
This young man is extremely good at protecting himself.
According to the righteousness of the law, Emperor Ling is the emperor and Gu Cheng is just the prince. Emperor Ling's orders and ministers must obey are the only right thing to do.
If the prince killed him in this name, then the historian would write it down and it would be ironclad evidence that he was a usurper of power.
But the prince is the crown prince, and his ministers must obey him. If Zhou Yu dared to conceal the inheritance, it would still be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
As for the secrets of the academy, he is still young, so it is normal for him not to know, and no one can make any sense.
There is no doubt that Zhou Yu did an extremely perfect job in grasping the scale. He was so sophisticated that he didn't look like a twelve-year-old boy, but a man with ups and downs in the world of officialdom, leaving people with nowhere to start.
It's a pity that it's not Liu Xie he's facing this time.
"Bring Gan Ning!"
Gu Cheng waved his hand, and the guards brought Gan Ning up, who was clanging with forbidden martial arts shackles.
"You bastard, don't wait for me to be free!"
Gan Ning was cursing, but he was not afraid. Gu Cheng looked at him and asked Zhou Yu, "Is this person loyal or traitorous?"
Zhou Yu's face changed slightly and he fell silent.
"Sir, tell me, I'm here for King Qin, why can't I be loyal?"
Gan Ning puffed up his chest, showing that if you want to kill him or cut him into pieces, I want to be loyal to celebrities forever.
Anyone who values righteousness over profit mostly has a good reputation. Just like people in the world, reputation is the most important thing, and Gan Ning is no exception.
However, at this moment, Zhou Yu weighed the pros and cons and finally said: "This person is a thief who harms the officials and brings trouble to the party. He deserves to be killed for doing evil!"
Gan Ning was stunned, then became furious and struggled hard: "You, the Lujiang Zhou family, treated me with great courtesy, so I led my son to join the battle with King Qin. Why do you do it again? Family son, you bully me like this, Lujiang Zhou family, I, Gan Ning, must
Destroy it!"
Gu Cheng waved his hand, and Gan Ning was dragged down by the guards.
"A thief from an aristocratic family! A thief from an aristocratic family! I will kill him! I will kill him!"
When the earth-shattering curses lingered for a long time, Zhou Yu hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Your Highness, this person is a water thief, not a court official, and he should be executed quickly!"
Gu Cheng said lightly: "Gan Ning is a fierce general who is very good at water warfare. I have always loved talents and I can't bear to kill him!"
Zhou Yu clenched his fists slightly and lowered his head: "Your Highness, I am also good at water warfare. I am willing to train the navy army and be loyal to the imperial court."
He submitted to the court instead of the prince, seemingly surrendering, but in fact he still refused to surrender.
"A water thief or a son of an aristocratic family must be loyal to the court. We, the Han Dynasty, are full of talented people!"
Gu Cheng tasted the jade dew from Lingquan and showed a happy smile: "Take him down and lock him with Gan Ning. We will try him again another day!"
