[Honghuang] After dressing as the goddess of laurel, I came to Honghuang again

"Lun Dao, do you understand, it must be for Shang Zhi to reveal the news to them!"

Kunpeng still felt unreliable: "Can you still do this? Are you sure you didn't guess it by yourself? Shang Zhi has that ability, why doesn't he go to become a saint himself, but why does he help others?"

Kunpeng contacted himself and thought for a while.If there is a chance of sanctification, can he let it out?Of course not!This is why he hates Hongyun so much.

As for why they don't hate the two in the West.I also hate, but people are sanctified and can't afford to offend, so I can only hate quietly in my heart.

Ming He touched his hair, struggled for a while and finally found a reason: "Maybe it's not the right time, but it is true that he met Nuwa first, and then Nuwa became a saint, and then I met Sanqing again, and Sanqing was sanctified again. Those two in the west just learned from Sanqing, so it can’t really be that they have nothing to do with each other, can they?”

Kunpeng really didn't know how to refute his words for a while.

Seeing that he was persuaded by himself, Minghe flicked his sleeves triumphantly.

He said, how can there be someone that his ancestor Styx can't say?

The desire to be holy broke through Kunpeng's suspicion, and he discussed: "Then shall we tie him back?"

"Tie..." Styx hesitated for a moment, and asked back, "You should still remember his arrow that day, right?"

Kunpeng was speechless.How could there be no impression.Even if he had to suffer a little bit of suffering to bear the arrow that contained the strike of a quasi-sage.If you really want to be tough, then Shang Zhi is not easy to mess with.

"Then what do you say?"

Ming He said: "The big deal is to invite him over."

Seeing that Kunpeng was still having doubts coming and going, he couldn't help but said, "I'll tell you, I'll share this secret with you, because I'm afraid that Shang Zhi will not give me face if I'm alone, so I pulled you in." Together, otherwise I would absolutely not be able to tell you such a big news. If you don’t want to, I can go by myself, so as to influence the face of my ancestor Styx, this prehistoric creature still has to give two points.”

Seeing that Styx was getting impatient, Kunpeng finally nodded: "Okay, then invite him to come and have a look."

Styx had a joy on his face, and immediately set about arranging this matter.

In the wild of Li Guangzhi, Shang Zhi was talking with the first born man and woman.

The human race lives in the fertile Liguang wilderness, where there are wild fruits when they are hungry, and streams when they are thirsty.Occasionally, they will cooperate to hunt some prey to satisfy their hunger.They spontaneously formed families and gradually divided into different small tribes.The pair in front of Shangzhi also live together and are the leaders of a small tribe.

"Li Guangzhiye's life is very peaceful, and with Nuwa Empress here, there is basically no big conflict." Because of the merits of becoming a saint, Li Guangzhiye has a lot of food, and they don't have to worry about starving themselves, and there are daughters The saint Wa is here, and his life will not be in danger for the time being.

Knowing that they lived well, Shang Zhi was relieved.

Of course he knows the tenacity and survivability of the human race. Given enough time, they can develop with their own wisdom.It's just that he can also provide some help in it, such as fire, or the exercises brought by Lao Tzu.

"You must have heard about the establishment of the sect of the Sanqing sect, right?"

The two nodded vigorously, their bright eyes fixed on Shang Zhi.They could feel Shang Zhi's friendliness.It's not that there were no powerful cultivators who paid special attention to them before, but most of them were looking for their characteristics and why they were able to make such great merit.After discovering that the human race is extremely weak, those people will show disappointed expressions on their faces again, and then look away. Only Shang Zhi, looking at them is useless.

On the contrary, it made the two of them feel...a sense of intimacy.

It's just that they will only say this in private, and they will definitely not say it in front of others.Shang Zhi has a great reputation and has a good relationship with the saint, but anyone who knows him knows that he is the incarnation of the innate spiritual root laurel, and has nothing to do with human beings.

The last two can only be attributed to the intimacy brought by the naming.

Shang Zhi took out Lao Tzu's jade slip and said, "This method was created by fellow Taoists of Taiqing, with the intention of enlightening the human race. When I came here this time, he asked me to pass it on to you, hoping it can be helpful to you. .”

Shang Zhi threw the jade slip, and the jade slip immediately turned into running water and fell on every human race.But how much you can comprehend still depends on the talent of this person.Maybe some people can quickly find the method of cultivation through the jade slips, but some people can't understand a single word.

However, in any case, this practice method is of great help to human beings.

They quickly bent down to thank Lao Tzu for his enlightenment.

It takes time for the human race to digest the method of enlightenment. Shang Zhi is inconvenient to stay, but before leaving, he glanced at the humans passing by carrying the scarlet blood prey, and suddenly said: "You can roast raw meat with fire, it tastes good."

"Fire?" The woman was keenly aware of the importance of Shang Zhi's words, and subconsciously asked, "What is that?"

There was a little fire from Shang Zhi's fingertips.This fire is the real fire of samadhi, which is a flame that can be generally used by practitioners.For example, the fire used by Honghaier is the real fire of Samadhi, which sounds very powerful, but in fact, most practitioners can use it.

Of course, Shang Zhi just showed the flame to the woman, so that she could notice the benefits of this thing when she came into contact with Fanhuo.

However, soon, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and his strength seemed to be imprisoned. Without the support of spiritual power, the Sanmai True Fire disappeared quickly, and Shang Zhi's face also turned pale.

"Are you okay?" The woman noticed that he looked strange and asked worriedly.

Shang Zhi managed to force a smile, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I suddenly remembered something, so I left first, you should try your best to learn the knowledge on the jade slips, and communicate frequently, Honghuang... will not always be peaceful down."

The two nodded in succession.

Shang Zhi heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and left quickly.After finding a corner and making sure there was no one around, he fell down.Shang Zhi spat out a mouthful of blood as the fishy smell that was suppressed in his chest surged up.The pale lips were dyed brightly, but it gave him a thrilling sense of beauty.

"You shouldn't meddle too much in their affairs." A familiar voice came from behind.

Shang Zhi wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth, frowned and said, "Why didn't I know that Sanqing would actually follow other people secretly."

The person who appeared just now was Yuan Shi.Hearing Shang Zhi's question, he didn't explain, but raised his hand, opened the top sleeve, and revealed a rabbit fur pendant in his hand: "Come and return your things."

Shang Zhi was startled.It was the pendant that Yuying gave him. After returning to Taiyin Star from Zixiao Palace, Yuying acted like a baby a few times, insisting that he put the pendant on it, and said that if it was broken, he would make another one.Shang Zhi couldn't bear her pleading, so he usually hung it on his body.I stayed at Qilin Cliff some time ago, and I probably accidentally fell there.

"Thank you." Shang Zhi took the pendant, but still didn't let the matter pass easily, "You could have stopped me, but you secretly followed me here."

Yuan Shi suddenly felt helpless, stared at him and said, "No one will point this out like you."

As long as this is someone else, you know that this topic should go away, and don't get too entangled.

Shang Zhi finally couldn't help showing a smile, his lips slightly stained with blood touched his heart.

"Then you have to get familiar with it first, I am such a character."

"Since you have made this point clear, then I don't mind being a villain." Yuan Shi stared at him with secret worries in his eyes, "You can't interfere too much with the development of the human race. You were injured just now, and the way of heaven must be admonishing you. you."

"Actually, it doesn't hurt. I've already reached Zhunsheng. This little injury is nothing to me." Shang Zhi didn't care much.This is indeed the case, Tiandao's little punishment just now was at most vomiting blood, which looked scary, but actually had no effect on Shang Zhi at all.

"But it won't tolerate you again and again, and you will become a saint in the future, and you will have too much karma with all living beings, which will not be good for you." Yuan Shi's tone was particularly serious, "Shang Zhi, you have been incarnated since the transformation. The talent is outstanding, and he has hardly encountered any ups and downs, but he doesn't know how dangerous it is to accumulate too much karma in the world, think about the ending of the three clans..."

"How do you know that I haven't encountered any ups and downs..." Shang Zhi murmured in a low voice, which fell into Yuan Shi's ears, but made him suspicious.

After he became a saint, he could feel that there was something wrong with Shang Zhi's aura, his spirit was exceptionally strong, and he could vaguely see that he was approaching the pinnacle of a quasi-sage.He didn't know what happened to Shang Zhi, maybe Hongjun knew, but if he asked the teacher for instructions, he might not get the answer.

Looking at the young man's slightly downcast expression, Yuanshi hesitated for a while, but finally changed his tone: "Conversely, maybe your help may bring disaster to them? Shang Zhi, the way of heaven has its rules, you can Help them, but it should be more of an inspiration than a teaching, and you should understand that."

What he said was sincere, if it were put into the eyes of anyone who knew Yuan Shi, his eyes would fall out of fear.

It's not that Shang Zhi doesn't know what's good, he nodded and said, "Thank you, I'll try my best to control the scale."

Yuan Shi stopped talking, nodded and left.

Shang Zhi looked at his back, wondering: Why does this man talk so much today.Is it possible that sanctification can also make people change their sex?

Shang Zhi wiped off the blood on his fingers, and planned to go back to Taiyin Star to rest first.

But he didn't want a thumping paper crane to fly towards him dragging its fat body.Shang Zhi knew the thousand paper cranes, and it was written by Yu Ying.Shang Zhi was afraid that it would be inconvenient for Taiyin Xing to communicate with each other occasionally, so he asked Yuying to contact him with a paper crane.

His mana is kept in the paper crane, so it can automatically find him.Now that Yuying moved the paper cranes to look for him, could it be that something important happened?

Shang Zhi pinched the paper crane's wings, and the fat little paper crane collapsed immediately, and Yuying's anxious voice came out: "Really and truly, come back quickly, two strange guys came from the Lunar Star, and they said they were looking for What are you doing? One is golden, the other is red, Kong Xuan said they are Patriarch Styx and Kunpeng."

Styx and Kunpeng?What are they here for?

Shang Zhi has never been in touch with these two people, and Kunpeng has a cunning personality, and he will retaliate, so Shang Zhi has a bad impression of him. When he comes here at this time, could it be that the visitor is not kind?

Thinking of the two little ones at home, Shang Zhi didn't care too much, and returned to the Moon Star as soon as possible, and when he arrived, he could hear the hearty laughter of the man inside.

Shang Zhi was stunned, and when he entered, he found that Ming He was pulling Yu Ying and Kong Xuan to question him. He looked like an uncle who came to visit during the Chinese New Year in later generations. He was talking to the two children in a very social way, facing Kong Xuan. Xuan's cold face was not at all embarrassing, and he was very entertaining.

Kunpeng on the side was drinking in silence, but he was the first to notice Shang Zhi's return.

Kunpeng hastily tugged Styx's sleeve to calm him down a bit, and motioned him to go see someone.

Ming He looked back, and when he saw Shang Zhi, his eyes lit up immediately, and he greeted him very familiarly: "Fellow Shang Zhi, you are here, come, sit down, don't be nervous."

Shang Zhi: ...

If I remember correctly, this is my home, right?You are too familiar with this.

His arrival made Yuying and Kong Xuan both heave a sigh of relief.

Finally, I don't have to face this strange, questioning uncle.

Kong Xuan even dragged Yuying directly into the room, and the sound of closing the door was extremely loud, which was enough to show that the time he was talking with Minghe was almost on the verge of his explosion.

Ming He didn't seem to care at all, and looked at Shang Zhi sitting opposite him with a smile on his face, and then asked, "Fellow Daoist Shang Zhi is probably wondering why I came here?"

"I'm quite confused." Shang Zhi forced a smile, picked up the jug and poured himself a glass of wine, calmed down a bit, and then asked, "I don't know why you came to see me?"

Ming He rubbed his hands, glanced at Shang Zhi, and said nothing.

Shang Zhi resisted the urge to twitch the corners of his mouth, not knowing who he was showing his coy gesture to.A big man, it's not good-looking, so don't pretend here.

Kunpeng also seemed to think that his appearance was unattractive, and had already rolled up his sleeves to cover his eyes and pretended not to see anything.

After making enough gestures, Minghe coughed and said seriously: "Actually, I really want to ask a fellow Taoist for something this time?"

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"I would like to invite you to visit my Nether Blood Sea as a guest!" Styx said, "I am used to seeing the beautiful scenery on the ground, and the scenery of my Blood Sea is also not bad. The blood-colored lotus is in full bloom, which is also of great ornamental value. .”

Shang Zhi also admired his ability to tell lies with his eyes open.

He still believed what other people said, but where did Styx live?Beside Hell Yellow Spring, in the Nether Blood Sea, everything in it is dead, and there are very few living vegetation.Not to mention that the most famous place in Styx is actually the sea of ​​blood, otherwise, it is extremely desolate.

"Fellow Daoist, just speak up if you have anything to say. I've always disliked going around with others. I'm too tired."

Ming He saw that he refused to give in, sighed and said: "In this case, then I will tell the truth, I just want to invite fellow Taoists to come over and have a discussion with me."

"Discussing the Dao?" Shang Zhi was puzzled, "It's okay here, but I don't have much skills, and it won't help fellow Taoists much if I really want to discuss the Dao."

"Hey, how can you say that." Styx waved his hand, "Don't I know your ability? Don't mention me, most monks in this prehistoric world probably know it!"

"Oh, let's hear it." Shang Zhi wanted to see what skills he didn't know.

"Look at you, do you need to talk about it?" Styx was even amused by him, "You still keep it from everyone, everyone knows. Who can become a saint like you, who goes everywhere? Do you have the means to be holy?"

After going around in such a big circle, Shang Zhi finally understood why Styx came to him.It turned out that he had misunderstood that he had a chance to become a saint, so he came here to inquire about the news.

This is really a pure misunderstanding.

He couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Fellow Daoists think too much, I don't know how to become a saint. The first time Nuwa's sanctification was just a mistake and hit the time. As long as you inquire carefully, it will be clear that Nuwa created the human race." I was not there at all. It was only after he created the human race that Fuxi and I discovered that she was missing. It can be seen that this sanctification depends on whether the opportunity has come and whether it can be enlightened."

"As for Sanqing, it's even more outrageous. Nuwa was the first to become a saint among the six, and they were naturally curious about the reason, but Nuwa and Fuxi were busy opening a dojo 33 days away, so they could only invite me In the past, see if you can get any hints and become holy, that is because they have realized the way they are doing, and it has nothing to do with me."

"The two in the West have nothing to do with me. As long as you inquire, you will know that there have been conflicts between me and them."

"The most important thing is, if I can help them become holy, then why didn't I become holy first, but let them get so much merit?"

Styx knew what Shang Zhi said, but he just felt that such a coincidence could not happen in the world, and Shang Zhi must have played a key role in it.

Shang Zhi had never seen such a stubborn and single-minded person, and his brows were stained with helplessness.

"Well, since you are discussing the Dao with several saints and nothing else, now that we sincerely invite you, you should also go to the Blood Pond and discuss the Dao with us." Kunpeng said suddenly.

When Ming He was reminded by him, he also remembered the original goal, and he couldn't help agreeing: "That's right, fellow Daoist Shang Zhi will go with me, forget about my worries, and even if it really doesn't work, I will I won't be angry with you either."

Speaking of which, Styx took out the treasures of heaven, materials and earth that he had prepared early in the morning, and put them all in a storage space and handed them to Shang Zhi.

"It's not a good thing, you take it first."

How could Shang Zhi really take these things away.Styx came to him with the mentality of being able to become a saint. If he really wants to become a saint, he doesn't have any treasures, these are nothing.But Shang Zhi knew that sanctification and everything were illusory things, and there was no shortcut, so this was an impossible task.

Seeing that he pushed the storage space back, Minghe became anxious: "Friend Daoist, you can't trust me, Minghe, why, if you think that if I can't become a saint, I will hate you? I, Minghe, am not the kind of person with a small belly, You don’t have to worry about keeping things, it’s not a rare thing, I can’t invite you to a sea of ​​blood and let you go back empty-handed.”

What he said was nothing, and Kunpeng's face turned green. If he didn't know Styx's character, he might think he was connoting himself.

Shang Zhi really changed his view of Styx now.I thought that I have a good relationship with Kunpeng, and my personality should be a bit difficult to get along with, but I didn't expect it to be clear.

In fact, it's not impossible to go to the sea of ​​blood, just because he wants to go to Hell and Huangquan to do something in the past.So he said: "That's how it is, I'll take half of the things, after all I can't cheat you, the rest of the fellow Taoists do me a favor and take me to the Netherworld, how about it?"

"No problem!" Styx agreed without hesitation, and then asked cautiously, "Could it be that the chance to become holy is in the Netherworld?"

Shang Zhi couldn't stop laughing, but he still had to explain to him: "It really doesn't matter, if you don't believe it, just follow me to have a look."

"No, no, why don't you believe it." Ming He quickly denied it, and couldn't help adding, "Call me when you go."

"it is good."

The matter is settled like this, Shang Zhi will definitely go on this trip to the sea of ​​blood.

Hearing his decision, neither Yuying nor Kong Xuan could understand.

Yuying's beautiful face was wrinkled, and she asked puzzledly: "What's so good there? Once when I went out to play, I walked around the entrance of Netherworld. It was dark inside, and there was nothing there. I could still hear There was a terrible howling sound, woo woo woo—"

She raised her two paws, revealing two small canine teeth, deliberately frightening.But because it is too small, it only looks cute.

Shang Zhi patted her on the head amusedly: "I promised to go there, and I'm going to Netherworld to do some business, and going to the Blood Pond is also on the way."

Kong Xuan didn't understand either, and said with a stinky face, "Those two people deliberately took advantage of it, and wanted to learn about the chance of becoming a saint from you, and you still helped them."

"We should let them give up, or let other people who are staring at me give up. Everyone wants to take shortcuts without knowing how to cultivate well, so let them know that I really don't have that ability." Shang Zhi's idea also Not out of the blue.

Styx said that many people in Honghuang felt that the sanctification of the four people had his handiwork. The reason why such obvious rumors could spread was because the temptation of sanctification was too great.Now Styx is just the first person to test it, and it is estimated that many people are also staring at them, wanting to test it from Styx to see what the result is.

That being the case, Shang Zhi let them have a look and told them that there was no shortcut.

It's better to make these people give up and quickly dispel the unscrupulous rumors.

Yuying nodded in a daze, it doesn't matter if she didn't understand, anyway, what the real person said makes sense.Kong Xuan understood what Shang Zhi meant, and he didn't have the previous rejection.

Shang Zhi smiled lightly.Before leaving, he told the two of them: "By the way, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while after I went to Netherworld, and I don't know much about the situation on the ground. Please keep an eye on it for me. If there is anything, just write it down. I’ll come back and fix it one by one.”

After explaining everything, Shang Zhi set off with Styx to the sea of ​​blood.

The sea of ​​blood is also in the Netherworld, and to enter the Netherworld, one has to pass through the Yellow Springs. Below the Yellow Springs is an empty space, which has not existed since the beginning of the world. Even the Styx River does not know what it is used for, and the other side is blood. ocean.However, what Styx said before was not wrong, only the red lotus can grow in the tumbling sea of ​​blood.

Hearing Shang Zhi's question, Ming He said with a smile: "You don't know something, this is related to my companion spirit treasure. I have a congenital spirit treasure named Twelve-Rank Karma Fire Red Lotus, so this blood sea is just Do you not exclude red lotus from growing in it?"

It would be good if he didn't talk about it, but as soon as he talked about Shang Zhi, he remembered that he also had a twelfth-grade black lotus that he brought from Luohu's fleece.
