Chapter 96
After running wildly day and night, Li Yu finally returned to Bianliang.

With the huge city wall towering in front of his eyes, Li Yu felt a sense of intimacy.

At least, here, someone can protect himself.

He really wanted to go to Shenxiao Palace immediately, hold Lin Lingsu's hand, and say to him: "Shut up, Linzi, there are all bald donkeys outside."

The two rode together and passed through the city gate. Bianliang City, the most prosperous city in the Six Dynasties, appeared in front of them. After entering the city, they could no longer see the common mud houses with thatched roofs and three or two stories on both sides of the cross street. houses abound.

Under the setting sun, the whole city is bathed in the afterglow of pale orange, as if Bianliang approved a yellow gauze, which is as gorgeous as a dream.

Shenxiao Palace is still dozens of miles away from the city wall, on Yuanmiao Mountain in the city.

In the city of Bianliang, there was no such a towering mountain. Lin Lingsu once chatted with Song Zhu, pointed to the royal garden and said, "Your Majesty, there is a mountain here."

Zhao Ji laughed loudly and said, "There is a flat river here, where are the mountains?"

Lin Lingsu smiled and said: "Pindao is bold and wants to gamble with His Majesty. If there is a mountain here, how about His Majesty giving the mountain to Poor Dao?"

Zhao Ji also wanted to see his methods, so he happily agreed.With a wave of Lin Lingsu's hand, a magic weapon came out from his sleeve, hung in mid-air and slowly fell down. The magic weapon continued to grow bigger and finally became a mountain.

Zhao Ji was dumbfounded, and immediately gave this mountain to Lin Lingsu, and named it "Yuanmiao Mountain" himself.He also gave Lin Lingsu the title of Mr. Tongzhen Daling, plus the title of Mr. Yuanmiao and Jinmen Yuke, and he was called the national teacher.

Yuanmiao Mountain is not big, but it wins in a word of danger. The mountain is high and densely forested, the dangerous peaks protrude, and there is a perennial fog that shrouds the peak.

Li Yu came to the foot of the mountain on horseback. After Pan Jinlian got off the horse, she rubbed her butt vigorously.

After galloping wildly for so long, her bumpy bones were about to fall apart, and the Zhaoye Jade Lion even stuck out its tongue, and the fine horse showed a tired expression like a donkey.

"Who is here?" There was a clear and low voice from the mountain gate.

Li Yu clasped his fists and said, "I'm an upright Taoist. If I have something important to see the national teacher, go and report it."

"A serious Taoist? Why haven't you heard of it?" A disciple of the Heavenly Firmament Palace came out of the mountain gate, with a plain crown robe, almond eyes and peach cheeks, curved willow eyebrows, and a romantic mole on the corner of his mouth, but it turned out to be a female cultivator.

When Li Yu arrived here, he was not in a hurry, no matter how fierce the bald donkeys were, they would not be able to kill them in the Shenxiao Palace.He chuckled and said: "I am very familiar with the national teacher, you should report it quickly."

The female cultivator glanced at him suspiciously, and found that Li Yu was calm and unhurried, standing with his hands behind his back, showing his confidence.

There is no way, the experience of selling amulets for fortune-telling all the year round has made him the best at mixing the demeanor of the immortal.

A really good person who has no demeanor is most likely to be told to say a few gossips behind his back. An alchemist like him has no demeanor, so he has nothing to eat.

So sometimes, Li Yu is a little more elegant than a real master.

Seeing that he was so confident, the female cultivator still had some doubts, but she didn't dare to miss the job.

She bowed profusely, and said: "Since we are acquainted by a mentor, senior, please wait a moment."

As soon as she finished speaking, a gust of wind picked up Li Yu and sent her to the mountain.

The female cultivator patted her chest, showing a look of rejoicing, and muttered in a low voice: "It turned out that I really knew my teacher, fortunately I was not rude."

She turned her head and saw Xiao Jinlian at a glance. Since it was brought by her teacher's friend, she must not be neglected. The nun smiled and asked, "Little sister, why don't you sit in the mountain gate?"

Xiao Jinlian put on a smiling face and asked, "Sister, is Zhao Fujin there?"

"Do you know Fu Jin?"

"Ah."

"Okay then, I'll take you to see her."
-
"Why did you come back?"

Li Yu was dizzy, and glanced around. This was a alchemy house with ridiculously high beams, and even those with bad eyesight couldn't see the roof.

The furnishings in the room are extremely simple, with a huge alchemy stove in the center surrounded by apricot futons.

Lin Lingsu was sitting on a futon, wearing a Taoist robe, with a dust whisk on the sleeve.

"Palace Master, the big thing is not good, those bald donkeys will act first." Li Yu added fuel and vinegar, and when he told about the mountain temple, Lin Lingsu was silent for a while, and began to meditate.

"They even want to hunt and kill Zuo Ci. Could it be that Zuo Ci is also our ally?"

Lin Lingsu snorted coldly, and said dissatisfiedly: "That old fellow Zuo Ci has come to my Yuanmiao Mountain several times to steal my pill furnace. Fortunately, I watched closely. It's best if he doesn't get caught by the bald donkeys. Sooner or later, he will be dealt with."

Li Yu sat on the futon, his butt hurt a little, and he put his hands on the ground, and said: "Master, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and the bald donkeys are very powerful. If you ask me to say that some small grievances are not worth mentioning, we have to unite all our friends. it is good."

Lin Lingsu said disdainfully: "What's there to unite with Zuo Ci? Let's put it this way. If there is a real fight, he will definitely be the first to run away. Moreover, this person hangs out with that fox in the early years, secretly deceived, and the enemy There are too many to count, and an alliance with him will do more harm than good."

Lin Lingsu let out a long breath, stood up, and lit a stick of incense towards the statue of Sanqing, "They won't attack for no reason. This time they killed Zuo Ci probably because he became a fairy. And you probably It was because you were so good at subduing evil stars that you annoyed the people behind Daxiangguo Temple."

"Palace master, don't bring such a deceitful person. It turns out that the evil star has such a big background. Daxiangguo Temple killing me is like crushing an ant. Then I messed with Daxiangguo Temple's backer, is there any way out?"

Lin Lingsu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate yourself, you see that Daxiangguo Temple sent someone to kill you, you are still alive and kicking."

"Palace Master, don't make fun of me. Anyway, I have decided to hide in your Divine Firmament Palace. If you don't go out, you still have to take care of yourself."

Lin Lingsu sighed, "I thought that if Daxiangguo Temple colluded with Mingjiao, His Majesty would kill him, but he just laughed."

Li Yu rolled his eyes, stepped forward and said, "Palace Master, everyone knows that you are at odds with Buddhism. If you go and say such things by yourself, it is clear that it is a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism."

Although Lin Lingsu's cultivation base is high, but he doesn't know much about officialdom, Li Yu said bitterly: "Official fights, how can we follow the rules, it's not for people to see clearly, and the calculation is not bad. "

"What do you think we should do?"

Li Yu lowered his voice and said, "First of all, we need to form allies. Our allies may not necessarily have enmity with Buddhism. As long as we can get a share of the pie, I believe many people are willing to participate."

"Secondly, we have to set up a name. It is important to snare charges, but first we have to figure out what His Majesty wants. He will not fight for the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, because after all, it is the king's mind, and every place needs to be balanced. We will not talk about the evil deeds of Daxiangguo Temple, but we will fully mobilize allies and ask them to write a letter together to explain to His Majesty how rich Daxiangguo Temple is."

"If you overthrow the Daxiangguo Temple, you will have the money to build high-rise buildings, you will have the money to make elixir, you will have the money to hold the Six Dynasties Cuju Competition, you will have the money to whitewash the peace, you will have the money to buy Dongwu to exterminate Fang La, and you will have the money to buy Liao and Jin not to go south. There is money for His Majesty to eat, drink and have fun."

"In this way, can His Majesty not be tempted? Everyone is innocent and guilty of carrying biscuits, not to mention that Daxiangguo Temple is no longer just carrying biscuits, their wealth has reached a shocking level. It was fine if they couldn't be divided before, and they have the opportunity to divide it up." , who is not jealous? At that time, there is no need to place any charges, anyone who has no hair will be guilty, and His Majesty can make an order to investigate Daxiangguo Temple!"

Lin Lingsu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he asked, "Then who is our ally?"

"Naturally, they are dignitaries in the court, Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng, Gao Qiu and others."
