Prehistoric: Twin lotuses with parallel stems
Chapter 381: No Heart, No Life
The master and disciple Qingxuan will stay in Chaoge City for the time being. Two or three years is a very short time for people at their level.
During this period, they saw Yang Ren, a minister of the Shang Dynasty, who was blinded and killed for persuading Emperor Xin to give up building the Lu Terrace. His resentment was still lingering and he was taken away by Qingxu Daode Zhenjun, one of the Twelve Immortals of the Chan Sect.
We also saw that Jiang Ziya, who was in charge of the construction of Lu Tai, gave up his position as a junior official, secretly ran away, and escaped from Chaoge.
The reason for this was that Jiang Ziya accidentally discovered the identities of a group of fox demons. He had a bad premonition and fled decisively to the west.
When the Lu Tower was built, Emperor Xin, at Daji's request, summoned a group of so-called fairies, who turned out to be a group of fox demons with insufficient spiritual power.
However, Bigan and Huang Feihu, the King of Wucheng, discovered this and killed a group of fox demons with little skills.
King Wucheng Huang Feihu didn't know it yet, but he had already been hated by others because of this, and his sister was a concubine in the palace, which had already become a stumbling block.
However, Bigan doubted Daji's identity, which caused Emperor Xin's dissatisfaction. It was only because Bigan was Emperor Xin's uncle and had a very high prestige in the court that he was able to avoid being blamed.
If it were someone else, it wouldn't be so easy.
But this incident undoubtedly made Emperor Xin feel resentful towards him.
As the junior teacher, although it is said that there is the Grand Tutor Wen Zhong for literature and the King of Wucheng Huang Feihu for martial arts, Bi Gan seems to be less famous than the two.
But in fact, the person who assisted Emperor Xin in handling state affairs was the Junior Tutor Bigan. In terms of prestige in the court, Bigan was no less than the other two, and even surpassed them.
His existence itself is a representative figure of the aristocracy of the Shang Dynasty.
At present, the North Sea is in chaos, and both the East and the South are in rebellion, but the situation in the court is still relatively stable, and Bi Gan's existence has contributed greatly to this.
With him around, he can stabilize the hearts of many nobles.
This may be one of the reasons why Xiqi has not yet raised its army.
A Taoist priest was thin, with two eye-catching eyebrows that were unusually long. He was wearing a green robe, and at this moment his eyes were looking at the carriage frame that was going away.
The carriage was heading towards the Shang Palace. In the carriage was an old man with a handsome appearance, Bigan, the Junior Master of the Shang Dynasty.
"You are in a good mood, and you are enjoying playing tricks on mortals. It seems that you have too much free time."
A voice came, with a hint of teasing in the words.
Taoist Yang Mei was not surprised at all. He turned to look at the newcomer and said with a smile, "Same here. It seems that you are also very relaxed."
I saw two figures just passing through the crowd, but no one noticed their presence.
Just like their conversation at this moment, no one could hear it because of the people coming and going.
The visitors were a man and a woman. The man was dressed in green and had a gentle temperament. His aura was faint and a little ethereal.
The woman following behind him was dressed in black and had a finger-sized pendant hanging around her waist. When she walked, the pendant made a crisp tinkling sound, and the woman looked around, as if she found everything interesting.
At this moment, the woman's slightly strange eyes looked over curiously.
Seeing this woman, Taoist Yang Mei's eyes flashed with surprise. With his vision, how could he not see the origin of this woman? He never thought that the Xiantian gourd vine would actually take shape, and at this moment, the aura on her body had a bit of the charm of the Hunyuan Dao.
"Nuqing, come and meet your uncle Yangmei."
Seeing Taoist Yangmei's eyes fall on Nuqing, Qingxuan smiled and spoke.
Taoist Yang Mei frowned immediately and snorted coldly: "Don't try to be so rude, we are not familiar with each other. Besides, I became enlightened in the chaos, so even if we consider this, I should be the uncle-master instead of the uncle-master."
"Are you not familiar with each other? I thought we were fellow Taoists and hit it off right away. It seems that I was rude. It's okay to call you uncle. We are all elders, so there's no problem." Qingxuan said with a smile.
Taoist Yang Mei raised his eyebrows and glanced at Nu Qing: "It's no good to call you uncle."
"Is that so? Then don't shout." Qingxuan nodded and followed suit.
The young woman's eyes turned slightly, and she nodded immediately.
"..."
Taoist Yangmei was somewhat unhappy with Qingxuan. After all, in his opinion, it was Qingxuan and the other two who set him up and made him sign a bunch of contracts with Hongjun, that shameless and sinister guy.
Of course, this is actually true.
If he had known that the strange little girl from the Dragon Clan was the disciple of these two men, he would never have taken action.
Because these two people follow the way of Hunyuan, they will really enter the chaos to deal with him.
But how could he know that the little girl was obviously from the dragon clan, but was taught by these two people.
What made him even more disgusted when he saw Qingxuan at this moment was that he discovered that the disciple following behind him was actually another person with the potential to become a Hunyuan.
Are two Hunyuans required to be among the disciples?
Qingxuan changed the subject at this time and his eyes looked at the car frame that was moving away.
"Fellow Daoist, you are a great master of the universe, why do you have to tease this Bigan?"
"How could I be teasing him? It's just his destiny to have this disaster. I'm giving him a chance. How about making a bet with me?" Taoist Yangmei looked at Qingxuan and said.
"Bet? How?" Qingxuan asked with interest.
"Let's bet on this man's life or death. I saw that he was in danger of having his heart cut out, so I gave him a chance. I gave him a drop of dew, which will make him lose his mind and be in a state of neither life nor death for a short period of time. Whether he lives or dies depends on his own luck."
Qing Xuan nodded: "In that case, I will bet on his death."
"You don't trust me?"
"No, I just think that his fate is unavoidable, and you don't really want to save him. You just watch the fun because you think he is going to have his heart cut out. How can his fate be changed? Of course, you can think of it as me letting you win."
Qingxuan felt that Taoist Yangmei was indeed boring, considering that there were rumors that his true form was a hollow willow, which was hollow and therefore heartless.
Soon, there will be another careless person, so this guy has such a little interest? Want to see if he can live without a heart?
It was just that Taoist Yang Mei was just acting on impulse, and the opportunity he gave Bi Gan was almost an act of asking for a title.
Taoist Yangmei really wanted to save him. Even just a hint of this thought could change his fate.
Unfortunately, Yang Mei had no such intention and simply treated it as a game for entertainment.
After hearing Qingxuan's words, Taoist Yangmei felt bored and too lazy to greet Qingxuan, so he disappeared without a trace.
Qingxuan didn't care about it and looked towards the direction of King Shang's Palace.
He was somewhat surprised to meet Taoist Yang Mei here, because the one who reminisced with Taoist Yang Mei was Taoist Ancestor Hongjun, so he hadn't seen Yang Mei since that battle. He only knew that he was wandering around in the prehistoric world, doing nothing like a street urchin.
After all, his cultivation had reached that level, and without a glimmer of opportunity, it would be useless to practice in seclusion.
Taoist Yang Mei is trying to comprehend the Dao of the ancient world and try to find a way for himself.
Soon, there was a noise and chaos ahead, and a figure fell on the street without a sound. There was a hole in his chest, and there was nothing inside.
A woman selling vegetables had a look of horror on her face. She couldn't understand why this noble lord suddenly died here.
The other person had walked by before and suddenly stopped to ask her what she was selling.
Of course, she answered honestly that this plant is commonly known as water spinach.
Then the other party continued to ask her: "Hollow heart... Plants and trees can live without hearts, what about people?"
The woman didn't understand and thought the question was very strange, but she didn't dare not answer it.
"Man is not a plant or a tree. He cannot survive without a heart."
As soon as she finished speaking, before she could react, the man fell to the ground without any warning, and a hole appeared on his chest.
In the eyes of Qingxuan and Nuqing, an illusory soul was floating in the air, looking at its own corpse lying on the ground in silence.
After a long time, he finally let out a sigh. In the end, he failed to obtain the seal that could allow him to survive, even if he wanted to.
A person cannot live without a heart.
Looking in the direction of the Shang Palace, Bigan's face became gloomy.
At this moment, a force enveloped him from nowhere, as if to lead him away. He had no way to resist, and his soul disappeared from then on.
Junior Tutor Bigan risked his life to give advice, but died after his heart was cut out. The Shang Dynasty lost another pillar.
Qingxuan left only after he made sure that Taoist Yangmei would not cause any more trouble, and headed north with his disciple Nuqing.
He planned to go and see how the Western Pure Land plan was going.
"Come with me to pay a visit to your two uncles. After that, it will be about time, and you can go to the Fengshen Platform to practice." Qingxuan said to Nuqing.
He needed to teach Nvqing the way of Hunyuan, and by the way, he also wanted to see what the results of Western religion were.
There is no doubt about Nv Qing's potential, it's just that she was born a little late.
Qingxuan was planning to give her the opportunity to reach the realm of Hunyuan. In order for Nuqing to have enough foundation to be promoted to Hunyuan at that time and take advantage of the situation, he made such a special trip to teach her.
Of course, the fact that Nv Qing chose to take away the copy of "Classic of Mountains and Seas" herself was also a reason.
