[Lotus Lantern] Free Sky

Outside the Kunlun Mountains, Sun Wukong is holding a golden cudgel in his right hand, and scratching randomly with his left hand on the back of his right hand.Facing this thick enchantment, he couldn't break it even if he smashed it, and no one responded to his shouts, so he simply lay down with his head on his head and an arm on the ground.It just stood outside with its legs crossed all night. Sun Wukong is an impatient person, so it is not easy to stay here for three or four hours.Look at the sky, Sun Wukong doesn't know any honorifics. To put it bluntly, he is a wild monkey except for his physical strength.No, I cursed again.

"Yang Xiaosheng, you despicable and shameless bastard, your nephew didn't teach you, and you tricked my grandson into working for you for nothing. If my grandson catches you, you must, definitely..." Sun Wukong wanted to say "peel the skin and tear it apart!" "Bone", but somehow changed the words on the lips: "I will beat you to kowtow and beg for mercy"

"Yang Xiaosheng, come out to my old grandson" He raised his hands and wanted to smash at the barrier, but at this moment a gap opened in the barrier, and a blue light flashed from the gap, shaking Monkey King backwards He took dozens of steps back before stopping.Then the Taoist in Tsing Yi came out with frost on his face. Sun Wukong didn't forget the old god who often gave him food and chatted with him when he was crushed under Wuzhi Mountain.But today the aura seems to be different from 800 years ago. Sun Wukong looked at the eyes of the real Yuding and felt that the hairs all over his body stood up, as cold as falling into an ice hole.But it still giggled and said, "Old Immortal, so you live here!"

"Nie Zhan, I don't want to see you. But you don't know how to restrain yourself." The real Yuding saw Yang Jian attracting Monkey King in the Kunlun mirror. Of course, he knew Yang Jian's intentions, but since the siege of Kunlun happened, Master Hou Yuding had a pimple in his heart. He didn't want to see Monkey King again, otherwise he wouldn't have blocked the monkey from the barrier the moment Yang Jian returned to Kunlun.It's just that the monkey hasn't left for a long time. If he doesn't go out to meet it, Yang Jian may not be able to retreat with peace of mind.So I had to come out and meet each other.

"Real Yuding! Old Sun sees that you did me favors back then and doesn't care about you. Quickly call Yang Jian to my old grandson!"

"Evil barrier! Yang Jian is also called by you?" The real Yuding felt emotional when he thought of Sun Wukong and his fellow brothers besieging him with outsiders, and felt bitter in his heart.The worst thing for a teacher is for disciples to kill each other.But Sun Wukong can't understand the pain in Yuding's heart now.

"Old guy, my grandson has endured so much, you don't know what to do. Take a stick from my grandson!" He said and threw it on the head of the real Yuding.In fact, Sun Wukong just couldn't stand the other party's "evil obstacles" over and over again.Seeing that Master Yuding did not dodge or dodge, the Immortal Slaying Sword formed in mid-air and swung gently towards the golden hoop held high above his head in Monkey King's hand.At the intersection of Dinghaishenzhen and the peerless murder weapon, at that moment Master Yuding looked at the little monkey he loved so much with a blank face, with mixed emotions in his heart.But the moment Sun Wukong touched the Zhanxian with the golden cudgel, he felt that the joints on his two arms were so numb that he almost couldn't hold the golden cudgel.Hearing a sharp and ear-piercing sound of weapons clashing, Sun Wukong and his stick flew tens of feet away without any suspense, and Sun Wukong fell heavily to the ground. But found a long scratch left on the golden stick.Warriors have always attached importance to their weapons, and Monkey King is no exception, so it is no longer reckless.But also for a moment, Monkey King thought of Yang Jian from last night. The real Yuding and Yang Jian have one thing in common, that is, the same cold and aloof temperament.And judging from the one-stroke battle with Yang Jian last night, if that is his strength, then before, could it be that he never showed his true strength to compete with him before?Da Da felt that the monkey who had been tricked couldn't help being annoyed, and glared at the real person Yuding.At this moment, it heard a long-lost voice.

"Wukong, you will definitely cause a catastrophe if you go here. Remember, no matter how you cause trouble and commit crimes, you are not allowed to say that you are my apprentice. If you say a word, I will definitely kill you." The hozen peels its skin and cramps, and its soul is relegated to the Nine Nether Places, where it cannot be reborn forever—”

"..." Sun Wukong opened his eyes wide, as if struck by lightning, his whole body was stiff and speechless, as if drunk from a dream, but also as if he was still in a dream.

"Although your body is humble, you look like a hozen eating pine cones. Why don't you have your surname Sun?" Master Yuding continued with a smile, "Remove the animal character on the side."

"..." Sun Wukong didn't speak, but the excitement in his eyes could no longer be suppressed. He "thumped" and knelt down towards the Jade Cauldron, his monkey face pressed against the ground.

"There are twelve characters in the school of Pindao. When I come to you, you are a generation of enlightened characters. I will give you a dharma name, and I will call you Sun Wukong!" Master Yuding turned his back and stopped looking at Monkey King, his eyes were already blurred.His figure gradually merged into the Kunlun Wonderland, and the gap in the barrier disappeared instantly.

"Master, I know I was wrong. I offended Master, please punish me." Monkey King was still kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise his head.

From the sea of ​​fog came the desolate voice of Master Yuding, as ethereal as a bell: "Monkey, our master-student relationship is over. From today onwards, you are no longer my disciple."

"Master, don't do it, this disciple really knows that he is wrong. I beg the master to take it back." Sun Wukong heard this, knelt there and wailed, his voice extremely desolate.

A long sigh came out from the snow fog: "Wukong, you go, go back to where you came from!"

Sun Wukong knelt there, weeping, "Master—" and bowed to the ground, burying his face on the ground and refusing to get up.Two furry paws were hanging feebly on the ground, but the fingers had already dug deep into the earth and rocks beneath him.Its whole body was trembling, and if one didn't listen carefully, it was hard to believe that the faint, almost inaudible weeping sound came from this fearless monkey.

In the Kunlun Wonderland, in the peach blossom forest at the outermost edge of Qingyuan Palace, Nu Wa caressed a piece of green bamboo as thick as the mouth of a bowl in a daze.This bamboo had been carefully planted here before Nuwa went to Guanjiangkou to find Yang Jian.The bamboo takes root, shoots, and leaves when it enters the soil, and it is now extremely luxuriant.At this time, a light wind passed by her, and Nuwa immediately came back to her senses, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and said with a faint smile, "Since you're here, why hide?"

As Nuwa's hearty words sounded, a ball of flames appeared in front of her. No, to be precise, it was a Taoist priest in his fiery red robe who looked more than 40 years old. The Taoist priest looked very ordinary and said with a cynical look: "Even the six clean bamboos are inserted here by you, and there is a big tree of green willow in the formation to protect him. I believe that the other half of the soul will wake up within a year."

"I hope there won't be any accidents in the middle," Nuwa said with a sigh and still worried.

"Don't worry, with the tree guarding it, even Hongjun's old loach will never be able to get in. Besides, isn't there a Fuxi water mirror guarding Yang Jian? If there is any movement, the mirror spirit will protect him." host."

"But what if Yang Jian walks out by himself?" It's not like this kind of thing has happened before, Yang Jian "sneaked" out of Kunlun not once or twice.

"The pure bamboo has been buried in the ground. Even if the sky collapses outside the barrier, Yang Jian inside the barrier will not be able to feel it. His ears are surrounded by the sound of peace and harmony. But if he is worried, he will not be able to detect it with his open sky eyes. For information outside Taolin, I’m afraid—”

"That's what worries me. Too much calm would arouse his suspicions."

"Just listen to me." So she approached Nuwa, whispered in Nuwa's ear for a while, and Nuwa nodded from time to time.Then the Taoist raised his head and asked with a faint smile, "How about this plan?"

"It's wonderful!" The worry on Nuwa's face disappeared, and she said to the red-robed Taoist priest in gratitude, "Lu Ya, you are more slippery than that old loach."

"Thanks for the compliment, I'm not very honored!" Ben wanted to say something, but when Nuwa gave him a wink, knowing that someone was coming, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared.

In the misty fairy mist, Master Yuding walked towards the wind, saw Nuwa outside the peach forest and walked forward: "Morning fairy!"

"Morning real! Is the real person going to see Erlang? Then you are one step too late, he has already settled down."

Daoist Yuding hesitated for a moment, but he still opened his mouth, "Poverty, I'm still a little worried, my apprentice..."

"Yao Ji understands, the real person should not have been here yet. Please, the real person" said and let the real person Yuding into the barrier.

After passing the peach blossom forest, the sight suddenly becomes clear, and there are greenery all over the field, dotted with pavilions, waterside pavilions, halls and lofts, the aura is filled to the extreme, the flowers and plants are fragrant, and the fairy wind is lingering.It really is a fairyland in a fairyland, a Taoyuan outside the Taoyuan. This world is in Kunlun, but it is more detached than Kunlun.Master Yuding glanced around and nodded repeatedly.It's strange to say, why I couldn't feel Yang Jian's position just now, even the Kunlun mirror can only show a peach forest, but Yang Jian can't be seen.Now as soon as he enters this enchantment, he can feel that Yang Jian is here?Nuwa saw it in her eyes and knew that he was worried about Yang Jian. When the real person Yuding was let into the pavilion, she waded for tea and said with a smile: "If the real person is not at ease, you can come here often for a short stay. The enchantment Don't stop yourself"

"Fairy is polite. Fairy still remembers Xintian"

"Of course, Xin Tiantiao has been born now, and it is really a blessing of the Three Realms!" Nuwa interrupted Daoist Yuding and rushed to say.At the same time, he signaled him to go out with his eyes.Although Master Yuding didn't know the reason, he also walked out of the peach forest in cooperation.

After leaving the barrier, Nuwa smiled apologetically and said, "It's best not to let Yang Jian know about the current form of the Heavenly Court, so as not to disturb his cultivation."

"I was careless" In fact, it was Monkey King kneeling at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, which made Master Yuding a little restless and confused.

"This is not a place to talk, how about going to a real person?" Nuwa said concisely.

"Alright, please," said the two of them, and they were already outside the ancient cave where Master Yuding wrote a book before.

Nuwa walked in first, glanced at the simple decorations around and said, "This is where Erlang learned his art at the beginning."

"Yeah, he was still an ignorant young man at the time. In less than three years, he had practiced the Nine-Turn Mysterious Kungfu to the seventh rank. He only wanted to save his mother, but there were too many thoughts in his heart that he couldn't let go of. Maybe he would be able to reach the [-]th rank within a year. Why can't he break through the [-]th rank? The fairy is Yang Jian's mother, and he should know himself better than Pindao son." Master Yuding said calmly while conjuring high-quality tea leaves and tea sets.

"That's why I insisted on going to Xitian to borrow six pure bamboos." The two sat on the ground, and Nuwa said quietly.

"It turns out that those are the six clean bamboos." There was no trace of shock on Yuding's face, but the hand holding the purple sand pot paused for a moment, and then continued to make his tea.He saw that bamboo full of vitality in the peach grove. This bamboo was seen in the hands of Taoist priests in the Battle of Conferred Gods. Although I saw it today, I didn't recognize it for a while. "The queen mother said that Yang Jian's blood is fused with Xin Tiantiao, does the fairy have any ideas?"

"I've also heard the Jade Emperor mention this matter. The relationship between Xin Tiantiao and Erlang may not be cut off. Now the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother are concentrating on dealing with the ten beasts, and have no time to take care of this. When the crisis in Heaven is resolved, they are bound to turn around. Let's deal with Erlang." At this point, Nu Wa began to hesitate whether to continue talking.

"In any case, Pindao will not let Yang Jian force himself to do things he doesn't like." Since the moment Yang Jian was brought back to Kunlun, Master Yuding secretly vowed that as long as Master Yuding is alive, From now on, Yang Jian will never be wronged or hurt again.

"However, if the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother are killed, the balance of the Three Realms will be lost. We must think of a perfect strategy, that is, not let Erlang return to the power vortex, but also ensure that the rules of heaven are implemented smoothly, and the Lord of the Three Realms will not change hands "

"Fairy Yaoji, your worries have nothing to do with poor Taoism!" Master Yuding recalled, and put the jade cup on the red sandalwood tea tray with a "bang", and suddenly a long hole was cracked in the tea tray. "As you said, unless Jian'er becomes a useless person, there is no threat to the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother. Otherwise, with their emperor's disposition, they will always worry that Jian'er will replace them. The so-called master of high merit, you will Where does Jian'er's safety lie!" Yuding's eyes almost burst into flames.If it weren't for the fact that she was Yang Jian's mother, she would have already struck with the Immortal Sword.

"Don't be angry with real people, Yaoji has her own way." Nuwa said with a mysterious smile: "The way of heaven uses all living beings in the three realms as pawns. Since there is a destiny in the dark, why should a real person be so pessimistic? Besides, with Erlang's heart, how can he be so pessimistic?" At the mercy of others? There is a way to break and then build.”

"What does the fairy mean?" In Yu Ding's eyes, the Jade Emperor is like a broken pot, who has already lost people's hearts, and there is no need to break it.But this "stand"?

"Yuanshi Tianzun has long intended to pass the headship to Erlang. When Erlang achieves great power, he will probably hold a handover ceremony. Before going to Guanjiangkou to find you, Yao Ji happened to meet Master Tongtian on Kunlun Mountain. He He also intends to pass the position of Jiejiao to Erlang. If he wants Erlang to be safe forever, but also wants to fight without bloodshed, he can only find a way to improve Erlang's status in the Three Realms. Either he stays high and lives in seclusion, which is obviously impossible. Then It can only be high, and Erlang's prestige and status in the Three Realms can only be higher than that of the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, and the higher the better. It is so high that they can only look up, and it is so high that they are powerless to refute. I know that he intends to create another realm for those ancient monsters. We can help him, push the flames, and let him create more realms. At that time, multiple realms will coexist, so that the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother will know that Erlang does not take the throne of the Lord of the Three Realms at all. Put it in their eyes. Let them realize that Erlang just doesn't want to touch them, he just needs to move his fingers lightly and he can crush them to death, just like crushing two ants. Then they will naturally give up. "The more the Empress Nuwa spoke, the more stern her expression became, and Master Yuding looked at such a "Yao Ji" fairy, feeling a little uncomfortable.But in a trance, I felt as if I saw Yang Jian when he was a judicial god.
