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

Compared with Doshita Bajing Palace and Biyou Palace, Yuxu Palace is more familiar to Shangzhi.

I went to Qilin Cliff last time, and I roughly remembered the route.After Shang Zhi came from the narrow bridge, passed through the birds and came to Qilin Cliff, a graceful white crane flew in front of Shang Zhi.

When he fell to the ground, it was the boy Baihe who had taken him to visit Qilin Cliff before.

Boy Baihe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shang Zhi, and said repeatedly: "You are here."

"Wait for me?" Shang Zhi was puzzled.Boy Baihe meant that it seemed that he had been waiting for him for a long time.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, a little guilt flashed in Baihe boy's eyes, and then he shut his mouth tightly and did not speak.Shang Zhi always felt weird seeing him like this, and began to wonder if Yuan Shi knew where he went to Tongtian first, so he felt offended and a little unhappy.

Seeing that Shang Zhi seemed to have skipped the topic just now, Boy Bai He breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Come with me, the master is already waiting."

Shang Zhi felt that in the short experience of 33 days away, he didn't know how many times he had said this sentence.Following Baihe Boy to the last residence, Shang Zhi found that Yuxu Palace was the same as before, not changed at all, even the Wanjiexiuhuang in the mountain was still green and tall.

Boy Baihe pushed open the door, pulled up the bead curtain, and asked Shang Zhi to go in first, and then stayed outside to wait for orders.

Yuan Shi had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Shang Zhi coming in, he opened his eyes.

Shang Zhi found that he was still the same as before, and even 33 days away after sanctification, he felt a little more lonely.

"Here we come." Yuan Shi nodded to the side of the table and motioned for him to sit there.

Shang Zhi saw that there were still waterdrops on the desk next to him.I don't know if it's his illusion, but there are several flavors that he particularly favored in the past.

Shang Zhi's heart shuddered, and he quickly dismissed such unrealistic guesses.

It's terrible, this kind of thing will never happen, if Yuan Shi finds out, he will have to laugh at him.

He narrowed his eyes and concentrated his thoughts, and was about to speak, but Yuan Shi took a step ahead: "He came back from Tongtian?"

The tone of his words was light, but it made Shang Zhi feel a little guilty.

Shang Zhi couldn't help but harden his fist, and wanted to hit Tong Tian twice: Yuan Shi wouldn't care about this as promised?Now come and settle accounts with him.Sure enough, I can't listen to that guy's nonsense.

Shang Zhi calmed down for a while, and then said: "I was stopped by Tongtian on the way here, and he said that he had something important to do with me, so I went there first." Anyway, it's good to leave the blame to Tongtian, so he doesn't want to bear the blame. .

"Really?" Yuan Shi said in a vague way, "I thought it was because you were closer to brother and Tongtian."

Shang Zhi: ...

He really wanted to show off.What does Yuan Shi mean by these words? Why does he know every word, but he doesn't understand it together?

In order to calm down, he took a very good-looking spiritual fruit and took a bite.

Hiss, so sour.

Shang Zhi stared at the fruit with piercing eyes, always feeling that people were unlucky, even the spirit fruit was against him.

There was a faint chuckle in his ear, Shang Zhi looked up, but saw Yuan Shi's expression was indifferent, as if the laughter just now was just his illusion.

Not right, so wrong.

Shang Zhi thought to himself.Something was wrong at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Zixiao Palace was also a little unmoved.Inexplicably, he felt like sitting on pins and needles.

Just when Shang Zhi was considering whether to say goodbye and leave, Yuan Shi said again: "What did you talk about?"

Without waiting for Shang Zhi to answer, he said again: "Left and right are just our disputes. I remember that you had a soft spot for him before, and you must support him."

"I am indeed closer to Tongtian's idea." Shang Zhi said.

Yuanshi Xindao really did so, his originally pitch-black eyes became deeper and deeper.It would be absurd to ask an answer I already knew.

But I heard Shang Zhi continue to say: "But I also discussed with him some ways to adjust the teaching structure." Shang Zhi talked about the matter of Feixian Pagoda, and finally, he looked at Yuan Shi, and his eyes couldn't help showing two points Looking forward to: "I came here this time, and I also want to ask you, would you like to leave a sage's statement on the Feixian Pagoda?"

What Shang Zhi wanted was a photo of the sages preaching, not too in-depth, but for those who entered Feixian Pagoda to have a general understanding of their Taoism.The official teaching is still Taiyi Jinxian and Daluo Jinxian in the Pagoda.

The sage is equivalent to the famous teacher invited by the Feixian Pagoda, who occasionally comes to give a lecture.This was also what Shang Zhi had thought about, a way to increase the influence of the Feixian Pagoda without harming the interests of the sage.

"I will consider it." Yuanshi did not immediately agree, but asked instead, "I heard that you plan to create your own power, Heavenly Court?"

With Lao Tzu's experience, Shang Zhi also got used to the sage's understanding of their every move, nodded and said, "That's right, it's been decided."

Sure enough.

Yuan Shi thought of the news that Boy Bai He had inquired about, and disagreed: "I heard that you created a power to prevent those who practice Taoism from getting involved in the war of liches. But can you really do it?"

Shang Zhi probably knew what he wanted to say.But he knew that Yuan Shi had no malice, so he didn't intend to quarrel with him, but just listened to him quietly.

"You want to keep too many people, but a saint can't be sure that he can control the situation of the battle, let alone you? Tongtian must also follow you to mess around. If you get involved too deeply, can you really be alone in the Lich War?"

Yuanshi's voice was cool: "If everything is lost, Tongtian, as a saint, is immortal, and there is still room for maneuver, but what about you? If you make a mistake, you will die. Can you afford such a price? You can only live and die for a hundred years Senior, is it worth it?"

Shang Zhi exhaled, and couldn't help but said for a while: "You are a real person, I probably know why Tongtian is not angry with you, obviously there are many times when there is no malice, but it sounds uncomfortable."

He looked straight at Yuanshi with a firm expression: "I am not a saint, nor am I a chess player. Under the heavens, apart from a saint, what is the difference between me and the people you say have lived and died for less than a hundred years? You can protect yourself if you don't enter the game." , but how do you know, I didn't enter the game long ago." If he could survive alone, why Hongjun would have passed the Chaos Orb and the guardian array to him early on.

Doesn't he understand what Yuan Shi said?But the way to become a saint is inherently difficult and dangerous. If you seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, you can become a saint. Back then, Rahu didn't have to stir up the three clans to create the way of magic.Hongjun and the three sages don't have to attack Luohu, just stay quietly, no matter how miserable his life is.

He was grateful for Yuan Shi's point, which saved him from detours before, but Shang Zhi still insisted on his own way.

And he agrees that Yuanshi is kind to him, but he doesn't think that Yuanshi's words are all right: "I don't think you can settle everything. Let time decide what the outcome will be."

Shang Zhi put down a jade slip: "I said before about the Feixian Pagoda. If you still want to, you can engrave Taoism on it. If you don't want this matter, forget it and leave."

Shang Zhi lowered his head slightly, and then walked away from Yuxu Palace.

"Master..." Boy Baihe stood outside, thinking of the bloody words the two had just quarreled with, he dared not speak out.

Yuan Shi sat for a long time, picked up the jade slip and said, "Retreat for a few days, don't bother me if you have nothing important to do."

Yuan Shi got up and was about to leave, when his eyes fell on the pile of fairy fruits, he picked up a similar kind of Shang Zhi and took a bite.The pulp entered his throat, Yuan Shi chewed for a while, and said, "It's really sour."

If there is a next time, don't prepare this fruit for him.

The anger in Shang Zhi's heart came out of Yuxu Palace, but he calmed down a little.He patted his cheek, secretly thinking that he was really strange.It's been a long time since I can't control my emotions.

But when I saw Yuanshi say so lightly that he was less than a hundred years old, I was really angry.

"Obviously I'm the one who killed the three corpses, but he seems even more indifferent." Shang Zhi complained in his heart, and then glanced at the Yuxu Palace behind him among the mountains and rivers.He offended Yuan Shi this time, and he dragged Tong Tian to do things together again. It is estimated that the friendship between the two is about to disappear?

A touch of regret flashed across his heart, which was fleeting, and even Shang Zhi himself didn't understand that emotion.

Before leaving for 33 days, Shang Zhi also placed two jade slips in the Bajing Palace in Doshita and Wahuang Palace, and asked them if they wanted to preach.

After finishing all this, Shang Zhi returned to the Moon Star.

He wanted to contact the quasi-sages he knew again to see if they were interested in participating in the teaching of Feixian Pagoda.

After all, although the saint is a top lecturer, the powers of quasi-sage and Da Luo are also indispensable.Learning from the strengths of a hundred schools of thought is also beneficial to cultivation.

It's just that what Shang Zhi didn't expect was that after returning to Taiyin Star, he got a piece of news that he didn't expect at all.

Bai Ze arrived at Taiyin Star for some reason, and when he saw Shang Zhi, he told him the bad news in a solemn tone: "The red cloud has fallen."

"What?" Shang Zhi was surprised.He just went there for 33 days, and Hongyun, a quasi-sage, lost his life.Everyone finds this incredible.

Bai Ze said in a deep voice: "The news has spread all over Honghuang. Hongyun was attacked suddenly and died very quickly. At that time, I could only find that the sky and the earth suddenly turned black, as if someone covered the sun and the moon, and then there were red clouds and colorful clouds." He flew over, but was killed in the end. When he fell, Hong Yun didn’t even leave his body behind. But it’s not clear whether his soul is still there.”

Shang Zhi sat down with him, digested the news, and discussed with him: "Who do you think the murderer is?"

Bai Ze was silent for a moment, raised his eyes and said, "Kunpeng."

Shang Zhi thought the same as him: "The sun and the moon were covered at that time. It is likely that Kunpeng showed his prototype and covered the sky and the earth. He was very dissatisfied with Hongyun's acquisition of the primordial purple energy earlier, and he was the most likely person to do it."

"By the way, is there any trace of the Primordial Purple Qi?"

"No, it is said that Hongmeng Ziqi flew into the chaos after the fall of the red cloud, and disappeared without a trace."

Shang Zhi sighed: "The person who killed Hongyun probably didn't expect that Hongmeng Ziqi would escape, and now it's nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket." It's a pity that Hongyun fell in this interception.

Hongyun's fall made Honghuang panic for a while, and no one knew whether he would be the next to be killed. Fortunately, Honghuang was calm after that, which finally made the uneasy atmosphere less.

Shang Zhi took advantage of this time to tell Bai Ze and others about the Feixian Pagoda. After receiving Bai Ze's support, he arranged for several people to record the way he said, and because it was his own reason, they The preaching will be a little deeper.

After thinking about it, Shang Zhi also sent a jade slip to Minghe, asking him if he wanted to join the gang, but unexpectedly Minghe's attitude was particularly enthusiastic, and he agreed very quickly.

Because the relationship between Styx and Kunpeng is not bad, Shang Zhi specially emphasized that Styx should not disclose this news.

Although there are no legal requirements in Honghuangli, Shang Zhi still does not approve of Kunpeng's act of intercepting and killing Hongyun for his own selfishness, and does not want to have too much intersection with him.

Fortunately, Styx still has this bit of propriety, except for sending the jade slips back, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

Nuwa also sent a message asking Shang Zhi if he wanted to go to Houtu to add a body training method, but Shang Zhi refused after consideration.

It doesn't matter that Houtu is a witch clan. In fact, some creatures may be more suitable for body training.But he has no problem, but he is afraid that there will be problems with the Wu clan.

If there is a conflict between the two sides in the future, it will be embarrassing for Hou Tu to stay there.

However, in addition to the support of acquaintances, Shang Zhi was particularly surprised by the addition of another person.

"Zhen Yuanzi." Shang Zhi looked at the Taoist in front of him, and called out his name in surprise.

Long time no see, Zhen Yuanzi looked a lot haggard at this time, and his face did not hide his grief. Holding a red gourd in his hand, he came to Shang Zhi step by step.

Shang Zhi glanced at the familiar gourd in his hand, and after covering up all possible prying eyes with spells, he brought Zhen Yuanzi into the house.

Shang Zhi's eyes fell on the red gourd in his hand. Although he was curious, he didn't ask specifically, but talked about the business: "I didn't expect you to be willing to participate in the construction of Feixian Pagoda. I can ask about it. why?"

Before that, Zhen Yuanzi had been living in the Wuzhuang Temple. Although he was powerful, he rarely participated in the prehistoric affairs.Now Shang Zhi would be involved in his own construction of the Feixian Pagoda, how could Shang Zhi not be surprised.

Zhen Yuanzi picked up the red gourd with his slightly thin hands, and put it in front of Shang Zhi: "In this gourd, Hong Yun's soul is stored."

Shang Zhi shivered, thinking that he had guessed correctly.Back then, Hongyun also obtained a red gourd from the gourd vine. It is said that this gourd was later refined into a nine-nine scattered soul gourd by him, but it also became Hongyun's lifeline.

But why did Zhen Yuanzi tell him such an important thing? Isn't he afraid that he will say it outside?

Zhen Yuanzi seemed to be aware of his doubts, and explained: "The reason why I told fellow daoist is to trust fellow daoist's character, and also to tell you that what I say next is extremely serious, and there is absolutely no lie."

His statement infected Shang Zhi.Shang Zhi looked serious, and listened carefully to Zhen Yuanzi's explanation.

"That day, after Kunpeng intercepted and killed Hongyun, he found that the majestic purple air was flying into the chaos, and he couldn't stop it, so he wanted to escape, but he didn't want to be stopped by someone." Zhen Yuanzi took a deep breath when he said this, as if Calm down, after a while, he read out the name word by word, "Di Jun..."

Shang Zhi's expression changed.He suddenly remembered that when he was in the sea of ​​blood, Kunpeng said that Di Jun had contacted him and wanted him to become a demon master. At first, Kunpeng refused because he didn't want to get involved and was eager to seek the holy.But now, after killing Hong Yun and losing access to the Primordial Purple Qi, will Kunpeng choose to join the Yaozu to get protection in order to avoid revenge.

Sure enough, Zhen Yuanzi continued: "Di Jun said that Kunpeng killed Hongyun, and I will definitely trouble him, so let Kunpeng join the demon clan, he can worship Kunpeng as a demon master, and give him supreme power in the demon clan And if he failed, he would publicize the fact that Kunpeng killed Hongyun. They thought that no one would know about this, but they didn't want Hongyun's spirit to hide in the nine-nine-scattered soul gourd, recorded everything, and finally told me the truth .”

Tightening the fingers on the gourd, Zhen Yuanzi said in a deep voice: "Red Cloud is sleeping now, I don't know when I will be able to nourish my soul, and I really can't fight against the Yaozu."

When Shang Zhi heard this, how could he fail to see what Zhen Yuanzi was thinking.This is to use Heavenly Court to fight against Kunpeng.

If this is the case, no matter how strong Zhen Yuanzi is, he will reject the other party's proposal.

"Daoist Zhenyuanzi, before this, I still want to tell you the truth. If you plan to use the hand of the heavens to fight against the demon clan, and then settle your personal affairs with Kunpeng, I'm afraid I can't help you." Shang Zhi was embarrassed. Said, "The original idea of ​​​​the Heavenly Court was to find a place without disputes in the battle between the two Lich clans, which ensures that we must be in a neutral position. If there are extremely strong hostile thoughts against a certain clan, it is not good for the Heavenly Court." The construction of the Heavenly Court is not mine alone, and the Feixian Pagoda involves many fellow Taoists and saints, so I am afraid it will be difficult to meet your requirements."

"No, you misunderstood, I came to you not for this. The matter between me and Hongyun, how can I drag you to help, and I will not join the Heavenly Court, I just contribute to the establishment of the Feixian Pagoda." Zhen Yuanzi knew that he had misunderstood, and explained, "The reason why I want to help you is to see the influence of Feixian Pagoda and Heavenly Court increase."

"When you said that there was something wrong with Kunpeng, I went to investigate some things about him. Before the tribulation of the three clans, he worked under Yuanfeng. Because of this, if after he joins the Yaozu, the influence of the Feixian Pagoda and the Heavenly Court increases, and even overwhelms the Yaozu, Kunpeng must be extremely dissatisfied."

"I want to help Feixian Pagoda, but it's because I don't want the Yaozu to be too powerful. I don't want fellow Taoists to do something for us." Speaking of this, Zhen Yuanzi sighed, "And compared to letting Kunpeng win Lesson learned, what I am more eager to do now is to find a way to help Hong Yun stabilize his soul, and I have sent this jade slip of preaching today, and I am afraid that I will continue to retreat for a while."

Zhen Yuanzi's words completely dispelled Shang Zhi's doubts.However, Zhen Yuanzi was willing to help, so he couldn't accept the other party's kindness and do nothing.

There is nothing else that can help, Hong Yun's soul is weak now, but he can provide a little help.

After three lifetimes, especially the experience of Mount Olympus devouring the godhead made his spirit stronger than his own, and he also had the energy of chaos to help him cultivate. So, among the methods of spiritual cultivation that he realized, he chose a spell that slows down the wear and tear of the divine soul and gave it to Zhen Yuanzi.

"It's not a good thing, and no one will use it at ordinary times. I just hope it can help Fellow Daoist Hongyun."

Zhen Yuanzi was overjoyed, with this method, at least he could delay for Hong Yun for a while, he thanked Shang Zhi, and then left Taiyin Star.

After Zhen Yuanzi left, Shang Zhi also started to forge the Feixian Pagoda.

That's right, although he has already planned the scale of the Feixian Tower and contacted various saints and great powers, the Feixian Tower has not yet come out with a specific appearance.

Because Shang Zhi didn't have a magic weapon suitable for making the Feixian Pagoda, everything had to be started from scratch, and Shang Zhi also planned to make the Feixian Pagoda by himself.

It stands to reason that the forged Feixian Pagoda is also an acquired magic weapon. Fortunately, Shang Zhi owns the Qiankun Ding. After the magic weapon is released from this tripod, it has the effect of transforming from acquired to innate, so Shang Zhi can guarantee that after the birth of Feixian Pagoda, it will be an innate spiritual treasure. .

The premise is that he can forge it.

Regarding the forging material of the Feixian Tower, Shang Zhi planned to use a black spar as the main material, adding various auxiliary materials to it. After forging, at least it could guarantee the defense of the Feixian Tower.

Otherwise, he burned the jade slips that recorded the sage's sermons, and the tower was stolen, and he had no place to cry.

As for the main material of Feixian Pagoda, Shang Zhi will go to Buzhou Mountain to find it.

Since the fall of the three clans, the Qilin clan who originally lived in Buzhou Mountain have also left one after another.Shi Qilin fell on the top of Kunlun Mountain, and the Qilin Cliff where Yuxu Palace is located is his body.As for Shi Qilin's child, Si Bu Xiang also became Yuan Shi's mount.

It is the four different sides that Jiang Ziya will ride in the future.

But now Buzhou Mountain is free, but in the early years the Qilin clan lived and was one of the Tianzhu, so treasures were born from time to time.The previous 36 grades of fortune green lotus, as well as the gourd vine and the book of life and death obtained by Shangzhi all grew on Buzhou Mountain. It can be seen that Buzhou Mountain is full of aura, and it is easier to find natural treasures and earth treasures.

Thinking that this Buzhou Mountain would be knocked down in the future, Shang Zhi felt violent in his heart.However, there is only one thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand miles to guard against a thief, and Shang Zhi can't stare at Buzhou Mountain every day to see that Gonggong is going to fight one day, and stop him, maybe heaven will have to strike five or six thunderbolts to wake him up .

I only hope that when the crisis comes, the Feixian Pagoda can provide more living beings with a little bit of survival skills, so that they can have a little more vitality.

Shang Zhi moved in the Buzhou Mountains, occasionally going deep into caves, occasionally breaking through mountain walls, looking for the materials he needed.When all the materials were found, Shang Zhi sat among the rocks, looking up at the wild land below from the sky pillar, with a special charm.

The golden crow's light slipped from his fingers and shone on the jade at his feet, and the reflected light shone into Shang Zhi's eyes.Scattered large and small pieces of jade were scattered at his feet. These pieces of jade were wrapped with the materials he needed, and they were peeled off after he took out the materials.The jade stones falling at the feet are of different colors, and they have not been polished, but they are not beautiful.

Blue and white, yellow, black, red, jade stones of various colors are scattered, exuding a faint aura.

Suddenly, Shang Zhi paused, and an idea came to his mind.

He picked up a piece of yellow jade and aimed it at the sky. The sunlight passed through the jade, and he could vaguely see the faint stream of aura on it.

Could there be a way for him to communicate briefly with humans without direct contact?
