Crossing town house man and wife

As soon as the Shang ghost entered Xiangping City, he sent a signal to Wu Ming with his spiritual sense, and after receiving a response, he directly brought the two Taoist priests into the county guard's mansion.But he did not introduce the origins of the two Taoist priests to Yan Heng and Wu Ming who came to greet them, and only asked Yan Heng to arrange a residence for them and entertain them well.

Wu Ming was immediately annoyed, "What a treat, we can only live in tents without looking at them, where can we find a place for them? Let them find a place for themselves, and sleep on the street if they can't find it!"

Wu Ming's voice was not controlled at all, and the two Taoist priests standing behind Shang Gui heard it clearly.

The older Taoist priest just smiled slightly, but the younger one had a grim expression and snorted coldly.

"Get out if you're not satisfied, as if someone wants to entertain you!" Wu Ming originally said to them.

"In this case, let's take our leave first." The elderly Taoist priest was very bachelor, seeing Wu Ming's attitude of not wanting to entertain guests, he immediately turned to say goodbye to the merchant ghost, "Tomorrow evening, we will be at the south gate of this city. Convergence, what do fellow Daoists think?"

"Alright." The merchant ghost didn't want to stay either.

"Farewell." The elder Taoist priest also cupped his hands towards Yan Heng, then put his hands on the shoulders of the young Taoist priest, cast a spell, and both of them flew away.

As soon as the two left, Shang Gui glared at Wu Ming and said, "Your bad temper will never change."

"This kind of second-rate stuff doesn't have the value for me to correct it at all." Wu Ming snorted coldly, "Where are they Taoist priests, and their cultivation is too bad, right?"

The cultivation base of the old Taoist priest was only slightly higher than that of Lingxuzi, and worse than the Lingdanzi Wu Ming saw for the first time, while the young Taoist priest was obviously a junior who came out to increase his knowledge. can strangle him.

"They are from Zhongnan, not Kunlun." Shang Gui said.

"Why not Kunlun?" Wu Ming frowned.

"There is no Kunlun." Shang Gui replied, "The Kunlun here is a mountain range with only snow and forests on it."

"No Kunlun?" Wu Ming immediately raised his eyebrows, "Then we can walk sideways here?"

"Do you want to stay?" The merchant ghost asked indifferently.

"Uh..." Wu Ming was immediately dumbfounded.

Shang Gui ignored him, turned to Yan Heng who had been silent all this time, and said: "Those two are Taoist priests from Zhongnan Mountain, they came to check the disaster situation, and they will probably walk around - you have nothing here to let them know, right? "

"If there is, will they intervene?" Yan Heng asked.

"Generally speaking, no." Shang Gui turned his gaze to Wu Ming, "but now, it's hard to say."

Wu Ming knew that Shang Gui was implying that his previous rudeness might arouse the anger of the two Taoist priests, prompting them to do some irrational things, or even find trouble for nothing.

But what he is most afraid of is getting troubled by others, so he immediately sneered, "Will killing them affect your cooperation with Zhong Nanshan?"

"Not really." Shang Gui affirmed, "They are not as irrational as you."

The reason that compels them to cooperate is Doomsday. As long as the threat of Doomsday is still there and cooperation is necessary, Taoist priests will definitely take care of the overall situation and will never tear themselves apart just because of a momentary mood like Wu Ming.

Under the nest, how can there be any eggs?

Wu Ming could risk his life to die with the Taoist priests of Zhongnan Mountain, but the Taoist priests of Zhongnan Mountain either couldn't give up their own lives, or couldn't give up the Taoist inheritance, and they would never seek their own death before they reached a desperate situation.

Barefoot people are never afraid of wearing shoes.

Wu Ming can take off his shoes, but the Taoist priests in Zhongnan Mountain are reluctant to go barefoot.

"When the world stabilizes, they will turn their heads and go to war." Shang Gui said to himself.

"Then it's better to kill a few more now, it's right to weaken their strength." Wu Ming smiled wickedly.

Seeing that the conversation between the two of them started to turn in an unfavorable direction, Yan Heng hurriedly coughed lightly, and interjected: "The ghost has come all the way, do you want to rest for a while and have some food?"

"Find me a place to bathe." The merchant ghost nodded, then turned to Wu Ming and said, "Give me a share of the herbs you used for the medicinal bath, I have used up all of my own."

"I use the one with only a few main ingredients and no supplementary ingredients." Wu Ming said, "It doesn't matter?"

"Why is there no auxiliary medicine?" Shang Gui asked suspiciously.

"It's not that you don't know how troublesome those auxiliary medicines are. I don't have the time and patience to find them." Wu Ming rolled his eyes.

"You can send someone..." Shang Gui closed his mouth after he finished speaking.

Several auxiliary medicines are grown in inaccessible and dangerous areas, even for extraordinary people like them, they have to work hard to get them. If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that they will have to use their lives to change them.

Although Wu Ming has become the magistrate's wife, he is still an out-and-out commoner at heart, unable to use other people's lives for his own benefit.

"Forget it, bring it." Shang Gui said, "Talk is better than nothing."

"I'll take you there directly." Wu Ming turned his head and said to Yan Heng, "Go do your work, I'll greet him myself."

"Wait." Before Yan Heng could answer, Shang Gui said first, "I have something to discuss with you, and he also needs to be present."

Wu Ming frowned, but he didn't ask what was going on. He just turned his head to look at Yan Heng. Seeing him nodding his head slightly, he also nodded and said, "OK."

Wu Ming led Shang Gui to his temporary tent, but Yan Heng didn't follow directly.

He was not as leisurely as Wu Ming. Seeing that the Shang Gui wanted to have a long talk, he immediately went out to make arrangements, and handed over the next thing to Yao Zhong and others to deal with, and then came back to meet the Shang Gui after enough time.

Taking advantage of Yan Heng's absence and the hot water for bathing was not yet ready, Wu Ming asked bluntly while helping the merchant with the medicinal materials, "What exactly do you want to talk to us about?"

"What else is there, you won't even forget what I'm doing, right?" Shang Gui asked back.

"But what does it have to do with Yan Heng?" Of course Wu Ming remembered that Shang Gui was looking for a way to stabilize this abnormal world, "Can he still help?"

"It really needs someone like him to help." Shang Gui sighed, "Do you remember the theory of the Nine Cauldrons?"

"You plan to cast Jiuding to rule the world?!" Wu Ming immediately widened his eyes.

Later generations used the Jiuding to symbolize royal power, but according to Xia Bo, although the real Jiuding was indeed made by Xia Yu, it is purely a sacrificial vessel. A natural disaster that is difficult to deal with broke out in the land, and it has no direct relationship with the royal power.

"Uncle Xia and I have checked all over the place. There are no real traces of the Xia, Shang and Zhou inheritances here. All the history only exists in the history books. It was not until the generation of the first emperor that we could find real people." Shang Gui said indifferently. Said, "That is to say, this world has neither past..."

"There is no future." Wu Ming continued.

"That's right." Shang Gui sighed, "If my guess is correct, this place is probably... the Mausoleum of the First Emperor."

Wu Ming was taken aback for a moment, "You mean, this place is actually an underground palace?"

"You should know what Sumi mustard said, right?" Shang Gui said.

"Knowing is knowing." The so-called Mustard Seed puts a huge Mount Sumeru into a small rapeseed. "But that's what Buddhism says. Sakyamuni died only a few years ago when the first emperor was here? Buddhism hasn't even become popular in India yet!"

Wu Ming just couldn't believe it.

"All laws come from the same source." Shang Gui said, "What's more, Buddhism has never been popular in its birthplace. The reason why this sect can gain a foothold in China is also because it merged with the local sects of China and cultivated monks. .”

Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun, and so does the right to preach religion.

The reason why Buddhism will be uprooted in its birthplace is because they have empty scriptures and wealth but no corresponding force, while the other two major religions in the same period are all armed to the teeth.Once the two sides collide, it is like a fight between a heavily armed special soldier and an unarmed kid, and the result is self-evident.

In the same way, the reason why Taoism has been passed down on the land of China to this day is also because they have always controlled powerful force.From magic in the era of Taoism to gunpowder in the budding period of science, Taoism has always been advancing with the times, and has never fallen behind in terms of force.Even in the so-called doomsday era, that is, after the twentieth century, Taoism still has its own martial arts that can strengthen the body and benefit future generations.

Wu Ming still wanted to refute, but Shang Gui had already said: "Don't argue with me, the spells in ancient times are unimaginable for you and me, a kid like me. What I want to tell you is Jiuding, not Xumijiao."

"With Sumi mustard seeds in front, who would care about Jiuding." Wu Ming said depressed.

"Sumi mustard seeds are about to suffocate you in your own small world, but Jiuding can give you life!" Shang Gui said angrily, "I wondered at the beginning why those old guys were so enthusiastic about building the Mausoleum of the First Emperor. He ignored him when he was alive, but he started to work for him when he was dead, it turned out that it was the mustard seeds that attracted them one by one!"

You don't need to interrupt me, you will digress yourself first!

Wu Mingxin slandered, but said: "There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If there are mustard seeds in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, how could there be no news of it?"

"It's not that there are no rumors, it's just that it can prove that people who have groundless rumors can no longer speak." Shang Gui sneered, "If I guessed right, the day when the imperial tomb is completed will be the day when they will die. So the success of the construction is probably due to the soul power they contributed."

"You mean...they were plotted against...by the dead Emperor Shihuang?!" Wu Ming couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Don't forget, Shi Huang is the most vengeful man." Shang Gui taunted with a pun, "They cheated Shi Huang for so many years when he was alive, with Shi Huang's temperament, how could he just smile after he died? Annihilation of grievances? It must be reconciled to come back!"

The first emperor has been obsessed with fairy magic in the second half of his life, hoping to live forever like a fairy.But magic is not something that humans can learn. Longevity is something that Taoists themselves can no longer do. Prolonging life is the ultimate. Only ghost cultivators who have died once like Shang Ghost and Xia Bo can use it in an inhuman way. Get longevity.

But money touches people's hearts. Although there is no Taoist priest who can make Shi Huangdi's wishes come true, some of them are greedy for the benefits promised by Shi Huangdi, so they try their best to fool around, just take the benefits and don't do practical things, anyway. The First Emperor couldn't do anything to them, so let's take advantage of all the advantages first.

The First Emperor did not do anything to them, to be precise, he did not do anything to them while he was alive. Even after seeing through their tricks, he only sent a fleet to look at Penglai instead of Kunlun.

But how could a Taoist priest who had achieved success in cultivation and hoped to ascend to heaven would pay any attention to a secular emperor. Until the end of his life, Shi Huangdi did not wait for any reply.
