The temptation of evergreen grass is much greater than Lin Ji thought.
Especially in the face of Huo Buqian, half of his body buried in the ground, with no hope of breakthrough and only a few years to live.
A hundred years of life is enough to drive people crazy anywhere.
A person who enters the Tao can only live five hundred years.
When he came, he was ignored by Huo Buqian, but when he left, Lin Ji was sent directly out of the forest and onto the official road.
"Boy Lin, you must pay attention to the matter of growing green grass."
"Don't worry, senior. Even without this promise, I still have to go to Yunzhou again." Lin Ji agreed, "No one wants to miss this important treasure."
Huo Buqian nodded, but still a little worried, and continued: "Are there any difficulties in this matter? Although I am very young, I have been immersed in the Taoist realm for hundreds of years. If there are any difficulties...
"
"I will inform Mr. Fang about this matter. When Chang Qing Cao gets it, it should also fall into the treasure house of Supervisor Tiansi."
Hearing this, Huo Buqian's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he eventually became calm.
"That's it...then I'll be relieved."
After Huo Bubiao left, Lin Ji did not delay and returned directly to the city.
"You're back so soon. Have you agreed to Huo Bubia's conditions?" Fang Yunshan was a little surprised to see Lin Ji.
"Since Mr. Fang knew about the favor from Old Man Huo, why didn't he explain it in advance?" Lin Ji said with a bitter smile, "The debt of favor is the most difficult to repay. The subordinate did not agree to it, but made another promise."
Fang Yunshan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Huo Buqian has only a few years left to live. What promise did you give him to make him agree to take action?"
"Evergreen Grass." Lin Ji said calmly, "Xiaguan got news about Evergreen Grass in Yunzhou. Maybe he will go to Yunzhou again after the year."
Compared to Huo Bubiao, Fang Yunshan seems to be much more calm.
He is only over two hundred years old now and still has more than half of his life left.
"Who did you mention this to?"
"Apart from Old Man Huo, there is only you, sir."
Fang Yunshan nodded slightly.
"Do you need a helping hand when going to Yunzhou? For the sake of growing green grass, I might as well go there myself."
"It's not necessary. The lower official has his own considerations."
"Then it's up to you."
...
After saying goodbye to Fang Yunshan, Lin Ji returned to the commander's own study.
Previously, he had thought that the crime of possessing a treasure would only be dangerous if it was exposed, but at this moment, he found that he had taken it for granted.
Although Fang Yunshan had acted calmly just now, he was obviously a little fiery in his heart.
After all, a furnace of evergreen grass can produce nine pills. No matter what, Fang Yunshan can always get one, so he can take it calmly.
But even so, he was still willing to make a special trip to Yunzhou for this purpose.
"You must make up for the lies you tell. I must go to Yunzhou after the New Year...Before that, I have to get rid of the Holy Fire on my body, otherwise, after I go, I will give it to the fire-seeking messenger in vain, gentleman."
Don’t stand under dangerous walls.”
The matter of the Holy Fire still has to fall on Shen Long, and I don’t know when Shen Long will return to Beijing.
Since Emperor Pei ascended the throne and the Demon Suppression Tower incident, Jian Tiansi seems to have remained unchanged, but there have been many differences.
Gao Qunshu rebelled and ran away, and Fang Yunshan was nominally a second-grade Youtianguan, but in reality he was the acting chief.
In addition, Zi Qing and Shen Long, two Youtian officials who were supposed to guard the capital, were also traveling around all year round and were nowhere to be seen.
Thinking of this, Lin Jicai suddenly woke up.
"I seem to have adapted to the world today, which was obviously not the case a few years ago."
Lin Ji also thought of this and suddenly realized that a group of demons were wreaking havoc in the mountains and forests outside the capital. This was something that had never happened before.
To put it bluntly, in the capital city, three years ago in the huge Jingzhou, you could hardly see evil spirits a few times a year.
And now...
"I will wait until the end of the year in the capital. If Master Shen Long still doesn't return to the capital, I will have to go find him."
"After getting rid of the Holy Fire on your body, go to Yunzhou for a perfunctory trip, and come back to understand the Thunder Cloud Bead to see how far you are from becoming a Taoist."
...
Royal Palace.
In the royal garden.
The snow dyed the entire imperial garden white.
Beside an inconspicuous pond, Pei Di held a fishing rod in his hand, and a lot of snow had accumulated on his body.
Lan Zeying stood behind Pei Emperor without saying a word.
He held a paper umbrella in his hand, but the umbrella was not opened.
It was specifically requested by Pei Di.
The pond has frozen, and a small hole has been opened in the ice. From time to time, fish shadows can be seen flashing across.
But there was not a single fish in the bamboo basket next to Emperor Pei.
I don't know how long it took, but Emperor Pei sighed slightly, but he didn't want to put down the fishing rod in his hand.
"Your Majesty, it's freezing cold today, and all the fish in the pond are dead." Lan Zeying said softly.
Emperor Pei ignored him.
After a long time, the fish float on the ice cave finally started to move.
Pei Di just lifted the hook slightly, and a golden carp was caught.
Seeing this scene, Emperor Pei finally had a smile on his face.
He looked back at Lan Zeying, as if he had anticipated what Lan Zeying wanted to say, and said softly: "If you still flatter me, it's better not to say anything."
Lan Zeying's expression froze and he quickly knelt down on the ground.
"Your Majesty knows things like a god."
"It's better not to say anything."
After throwing the fish into the bamboo basket, Emperor Pei picked up the bamboo basket and stood up. Lan Zeying quickly followed.
"I remember when I was a kid, I used to fish here. Sometimes I would get anxious when the fish didn't take the bait, but you would secretly make the fish bite the hook, just to make me happy," said Pei Di.
Lan Zeying did not say a word, but followed behind Pei Emperor with a half-bow.
"Later, I read many books and saw many things, and my heart became calmer, calmer than yours." Pei Di paused and looked back at Lan Zeying, "Don't rush into anything."
Hearing this, Lan Zeying's Adam's apple rolled twice and her head lowered further.
"Why are you targeting Jian Tiansi everywhere?" Emperor Pei asked again.
"The monks of Jiantiansi used the luck of the Great Qin to pave the way for their own cultivation, but they listened to the instructions but not the propaganda. This has been the case for thousands of years. This old slave can't stand it."
Pei Di smiled noncommittally.
"Grand-sounding."
"The old slave knows his crime."
Emperor Pei continued: "You also know that Jian Tiansi has been like this for thousands of years. There was a time when no one wanted him to be more obedient, including many of my ancestors of the Qin family. But to this day, Jian Tiansi is still
Supervisor Tiansi."
Pei Di paused.
"In fact, Jian Tiansi and Da Qin complement each other, and they will benefit both sides."
Pei Di became expressionless.
"One last chance, give me a reason, a reason to let you take action against Jian Tiansi."
Lan Zeying fell to his knees.
"Today's Supervisor of Heaven is the Supervisor of Great Qin. I want to give His Majesty a Supervisor of Heaven."
After hearing this, Emperor Pei was silent for a moment, then bent down slightly and reached out to help Lan Zeying up.
