Jia Xu stepped forward, helped Zhang Lu up, and gave instructions.
Zhang Lu's eyes flashed, he nodded repeatedly, and soon showed a look of joy.
"These counselors are all trying to trick you into maxing your talent points!"
Gu Cheng couldn't help but sigh when he heard Jia Xu's sharp tongue.
They obviously want to use the Five Pecks of Rice Sect to fight against Taiping Dao, but now they seem to be helping Zhang Lu.
Yes, Jia Xu wanted the two religions to fight, so the imperial court ordered Zhang Xiu to leave Hanzhong and attack Jingzhou.
Will Zhang Xiu refuse?
No, he will accept the order gladly, because he is not a direct descendant of the Heavenly Master, and his superior title is not justified and he needs a righteous title.
If the Yellow Turbans can be defeated and recognized by the imperial court, then Zhang Lu will not be able to turn around no matter how much he is Zhang Ling's direct grandson.
But Zhang Xiu has confidence and certainty.
Why were the three Zhang Jiao brothers able to mobilize hundreds of millions of followers and rebel in eight states?
It is through practicing medicine and applying talismans for more than ten years that he can win over people's hearts.
Zhang Xiu's methods in this regard are by no means inferior. If Zhang Jiao had not died, the two would be equally matched, but it is still unclear who will win. Now Zhang Bao alone is by no means his opponent.
Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu did not expect that it was Zhang Lu who took refuge with the prince first. When the Yellow Turban Army and the Five Pecks of Rice were defeated and both sides were injured, they were killed by the Three Five Evil Swords.
By that time, the strength of the Five Dou Rice Sect was greatly reduced and it could no longer make waves. The two major cults in the Central Plains disappeared in one fell swoop.
As for whether Tianshi Dao was implicated and severely damaged, it was not within the scope of Jia Xu's concerns. However, Zhang Lu was so grateful that he said: "Your Highness is a great virtue, Sir, you are so kind. Lu will remember it in his heart and will never forget it. If he violates this oath, he will never forget it."
Heaven and man abandon each other!"
Zhang Lu didn't know that in later generations there was a cook named Fan who was sold as a crutch but also said thank you.
In fact, those who can become princes in the future are not ordinary people.
Zhang Lu is definitely not stupid, but it is a pity that when people are about to drown, they will grab a life-saving straw as long as there is one. Jia Xu saw this and took advantage of it.
Watching Zhang Lu leave, Jia Xu retreated and stood behind Gu Cheng like a ghost.
Gu Cheng entered the room and looked at the familiar inner room with a look of nostalgia. Shi Zixuan called the Taoist boy and brewed two pots of spiritual tea.
"Tea please!"
"Fairy tea?"
Jia Xu was moved when he saw it, with excitement on his face: "Haha, thank you Taoist Priest!"
As he spoke, he impatiently drank it and closed his eyes to refine it. After a while, he opened his eyes and was full of energy. There were actually fewer wrinkles on his face and his skin became much smoother.
After entering the Wushuang Realm, the spirit of the refining lineage consumes a lot more energy. In addition, the body is much weaker than the refining essence, so most of the lifespan is not long. Jia Xu is only thirty-seven years old this year, but he is as old as five years old.
He looks like a ten-year-old man, that's why.
Taoist alchemy and immortal tea are the best at extending life. This cup of immortal tea extended Jia Xu's life for three years. As a guy who is extremely afraid of death, how could he not like it?
As Gu Cheng sipped the tea, he also felt an extremely cool breath spreading throughout his body, and finally submerged into the magic dragon in the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows.
The magic dragon roared, and its body, which had grown to the extreme, was actually shrinking, but the scales of the dragon's whiskers were clearly condensed, becoming more agile and real.
He silently comprehended it, slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, his eyes were warm and his sharpness was restrained.
When Shi Zixuan saw it, he admired: "The fairy tea is not only a wish for immortality, but also a wish to transcend the world. Your Highness is tolerant and tolerant. In the future, thousands of immortals will come to visit you!"
Gu Cheng smiled slightly.
Qiao Xuan wanted to sweep away the immortals, and Shi Zixuan wanted ten thousand immortals to come to court. As expected, they had different positions and different wishes.
"Haha, you claim to be a layman, how can you compare to His Highness?"
Jia Xu knew that Shi Zixuan was a bystander and knew that what he had done was damaging the vitality of the Celestial Master's Tao. He was hostile, but ignored it: "Taoist Master, can you give me the Celestial Master's Seal for a look?"
Shi Zixuan frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a seal from his sleeve: "This is the Yang Ping Zhidu Gong Seal, awarded to the master by Taiqing Taoist Patriarch."
Gu Cheng took a closer look and couldn't help but let out a sigh, because there was a faint black air lingering on the seal, which was eerie and terrifying, and it actually felt like a ghostly evil thing.
Jia Xu's eyes lit up: "Fengdu ghost energy? Are the six ghost kings trapped in it?"
Shi Zixuan shook his head: "That is an exaggeration of the rumors. This seal maintains the seal of Fengdu. There is another place where the six ghost kings sealed it. My moral conduct is not enough, so that the ghost energy leaks out. I am ashamed!"
In this world, the merit of Yangping's success in governing the capital means that in the Yangshi, it was the merit of the ghost troubles in Fengdu.
Fengdu Ghost City, as everyone knows, is one of the passages between the ghost world and the human world. Fifty years ago, six ghost kings led hundreds of millions of ghost soldiers into the world of the sun, bringing plagues and diseases and harming all living beings.
The ghosts in the underworld are flourishing, but finally cannot be tolerated by the heaven. Laojun entrusts his dream to pass on Zhang Ling's wonderful thunder method, the secret technique of talisman and the seal of Yang Ping's rule of the capital, and the three and five evil-killing male and female swords, two great treasures.
Taishang Zhang Ling personally passed on the Taoism and cultivated unparalleled Taoism. He set up an altar on Qingcheng Mountain, rang the bells, called for wind and rain, and ordered the heavenly generals and magic soldiers to finally sweep away the ghosts and seal the six ghost kings.
The exit from Fengdu has also been sealed. Only during the Ghost Festival every year, when the gate of ghosts opens, can it appear briefly.
After Shi Zixuan finished explaining, he was about to collect the seals, but Jia Xu stopped him: "Wait a minute, Taoist Master should know that the world is in turmoil and the Yellow Turban is a disaster. Even if there is help from the Heavenly Master and Taoism, Jingzhou can be chosen, but Jizhou is the place where the three Zhang Jiao brothers rebelled.
It’s hard to take it back, are you willing to lend a helping hand to His Highness?”
Shi Zixuan felt something was wrong and looked at Gu Cheng with a pleading look in his eyes: "Your Highness, the master ordered me to guard this seal. There must be no mistake!"
Gu Cheng nodded: "The ghost world is of great importance and cannot be touched by the Heavenly Master's seal."
Compared with the wise and self-protective poisonous warrior in the original history, Jia Xu at this time lacked a bit of firepower, but the viciousness in his bones was fully revealed.
He doesn't care about the changes in the country, but Gu Cheng wants the world to be peaceful. If the Yellow Turbans are removed and the ghosts and Taoists are released, wouldn't it be worth the loss?
"Don't worry, Your Highness, you know how important it is! If the Taoist priest doesn't want to borrow the seal, it's always okay to give him some ghostly energy, right?"
Jia Xu smiled.
Only then did Shi Zixuan realize that this was probably the real purpose of the other party. In desperation, he could no longer refuse. He grabbed it with five fingers and repeatedly entangled the black energy, turning it into a dark pill: "If the ghost energy escapes, there will be death and injury."
Count them in the tens of thousands, be careful! Be careful!”
Jia Xu calmed down the ghost spirit and bowed to Gu Cheng again: "Xu asks His Highness for an edict. Within three months, the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou will be defeated!"
"Oh? What kind of edict are you going to issue?"
Gu Cheng's eyes narrowed.
The emperor's will is divided into edicts, systems, edicts and edicts.
Edicts are documents that announce to the people of the world, and they are absolutely important matters.
As expected, Jia Xu said loudly:
"The prince is young and should be selected as a concubine. The daughters of each family, who are beautiful, gentle and wise, will be returned to the palace. They will choose whether they are suitable or not, and they will be used to ascend the throne! Heaven is benevolent and will not attack Jizhou. After the selection of concubines, the ceremony will be completed and the world will be granted amnesty.
, only the first culprit will be punished, and those who follow will be punished with light punishment!"
