Chapter 1140 Give Jiajing Online Lessons
"Why hasn't Lu Bing fallen down yet..."

"Is there something wrong with my spell?"

"Or is Judge Zhao dissatisfied with the number of ghost tickets?"

Nian Shinji looked at the last pile of ghost tickets and burned them all in the alms bowl. After asking his junior to inquire about the Lu family's activities again, his brows were full of gloom.

These days, he communicated with the underworld according to the mantra taught by his master, first through layers of ghost messengers, and finally successfully connected with a judge Zhao.

There are four major courts in the Underworld: the Division of Rewarding Good, the Division of Punishment, the Division of Procurement, and the Division of Yin Law. Judge Zhao is just a small deputy in the Procuratorate, not at the level of the four major judges.

But don't look at the position is not high, I heard that if you exchange a hall master with him, you won't change.

When they contacted, the other party was eating noodles, and the underworld was quite particular, one mouthful of noodles and one mouthful of garlic. When they heard that Lu Bing's life expectancy would be reduced by six years, he didn't say anything, and discharged twelve garlic.

Each one corresponds to a stack of ghost tickets.

Nian Shinji had no choice but to apply for funding from Tao Zhongwen again, and finally satisfied the other party's appetite, and began to practice, expecting the bad news from Lu Bing's side.

In his judgment, Lu Bing should have fallen ill when he burned the second stack of ghost tickets, and then his condition became worse day by day. The governor, there is no cure for medicine and stone, and he passed away forever.

As a result, Lu Bing was alive and kicking, still finding troubles with the Tianshi Mansion from time to time, and the last wad of ghost tickets had been completely burned...

"Something must have gone wrong. Could it be that Judge Zhao took the money and didn't do anything? It's hateful!"

"Fortunately, Master loves me so much, so he won't blame me!"

Nian Shinji comforted himself for a moment, ready to report the bad news to Tao Zhongwen.

Just as he was walking towards the stone room, he saw Tao Shi'en walking in a hurry, and he also came quickly, and the two sides just met each other.

"Huh? Isn't this the elder brother?"

"Oh! Second Junior Brother is still so leisurely?"

The brothers and sisters looked at each other with weird expressions.

In Nian Shinji's eyes, Tao Shi'en's appearance has undergone obvious changes, his cheeks are slightly sunken, his face is haggard, but his eyes are bright, emitting a murderous light that chooses someone to devour.

In Tao Shi'en's eyes, although Nori Shinji's appearance has not changed, his brow, which was originally full of heaven, is faintly covered by black clouds, and his whole person is filled with a gloomy and dead air.

Originally, Tao Shien didn't pay attention to this junior brother at all, but there were only two old direct disciples left, and the new ones were far from being able to take on big responsibilities. He found that his father had really entrusted many things to him, and immediately Feeling vigilant, Nori Shinji no longer concealed it, and the open and secret struggle between the two sides became more and more obvious.

Until now, seeing the other party's appearance, my heart is fixed.

With such virtue, you still want to compete with me for the position of heir?

The two triumphantly came to the stone room and saluted: "Master!"

The stone door opened, and a jade bottle flew out. Tao Shien hurriedly took it, poured out Bing Xin Dan, swallowed it with a gulp, and his expression became much more relaxed.

"Using pills to suppress it is a long-term solution?"

Nian Shinji sneered secretly, and then felt a gaze cast on him from the stone room, knowing that it was Tao Zhongwen's inquiry, he said nervously: "Your apprentice owes his master, the underworld government accepted the ghost ticket, but it broke its promise to me, and it is not over yet." Lu Bing's life expectancy..."

"How can the yang energy not be damaged when communicating with the underworld?"

Tao Shien sneered secretly, full of gloating, and then reported: "Father, since the Dongyue Temple, Tao Yin has disappeared, and the child has been walking in Zhengyi recently, and just now caused another doom. Much more honest!"

The stone room was quiet for a moment, and Tao Zhongwen's voice sounded slowly: "Lu Bing is not dead, there are many incidents, and His Majesty is not touched, and Xiantao is uncomfortable."

Only then did Shinji understand that there was an urgency to curse Lu Bing to death and cause Jiajing, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Please rest assured, master, I will contact the magistrate again and decide Take Lu Bing down!"

Another brocade box flew out of the stone room, and it was full of ghost tickets. Tao Zhongwen said indifferently: "Save some for use."

Norishinji took it, and his spirit lifted: "Thank you, Master!"

He didn't believe it anymore, could it be possible that a Judge Zhao could do this in the underworld?

Tao Zhongwen turned to Tao Shi'en again: "The aura of Niezi and Snake Demon is indeed far away, but Li Shizhen and Longnv have not retreated, they are still in the capital, you are taking it lightly."

Tao Shien's face immediately became grim: "Father, don't worry, once the trace is found, the child will definitely use the Buddha treasure to bring them doom!"

Tao Zhongwen said: "There is no need to look for it. There is a report in the palace. Your Majesty has recently met with the God of the Earth. I am afraid that you will soon be unable to hold back. You want to recruit Li Shizhen to Xiyuan. You just wait for the opportunity."

Tao Shien's spirit was greatly lifted: "Yes!"

"Go, go, don't disappoint me again..."

Tao Zhongwen's voice came out faintly, and the door of the stone room was slowly closed.

The two bowed to the stone room, and then looked at each other, the eyes were full of high-spirited fighting spirit.

Next, they have to prove that who is the father's favorite son!
……

"God of the land, please!"

In the Xiyuan Longevity Palace, accompanied by melodious big music, Jiajing raised his glass to a kind and rich old man with a smile on his face.

This great emperor sat in front of a long bright yellow table with many jade utensils, and dozens of well-dressed servants stood on both sides, holding a vermilion lacquer box painted with golden dragons, and came forward to set the food in an orderly manner. .

"Please, Your Majesty!"

The old man invited by the imperial banquet is the God of Land in Beijing.

Compared with the dragon god who appeared in a flash and then left quickly, this old man from the land has been in the palace more often recently, chatting with the earthly emperor.

Jiajing was in a happy mood. When the Hangzhou Land God woke up, he had thought about going south, but it was really not worth mobilizing teachers and mobilizing people for a small land god.

Now that the local land god in the capital has revived and became a guest, the dream of being able to entertain the gods and let him become a fairy and attain the Tao immediately felt a great sense of satisfaction.

The land god is also happy.

Before the drastic changes in the world, the mortal emperors really looked down on small lands, especially the Middle Earth Dynasty, which occupied the absolute dominance of Nanzhan Buzhou.

Jiajing graciously invited him, so he went to the meeting happily, and even had a meal together on this day, but he just looked at the vegetarian dishes in front of him and didn't move his chopsticks.

It's not that they don't look down on vegetarian meals. In fact, these dishes are by no means as simple as they appear on the surface. Instead, the imperial chef boiled all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas to make the most essential soup and added them to the vegetarian meals.

Among them, the simplest plate of tofu requires more than a dozen mountain pheasants to match. It seems ordinary, but it is extremely extravagant.

The cost of this table of "vegetarian meal" is hundreds of taels of silver, which is not up to the point where the Empress Dowager Cixi would eat 200 taels of silver for a meal, but it is enough for three or four county magistrates to earn a year's salary.

Jiajing has never been stingy with himself.

However, the God of Earth was obviously not very interested in these exquisite delicacies, so he didn't move his chopsticks, and the wine only touched his lips, so he didn't drink any more.

After Jiajing looked at it, his smile subsided slightly: "Is this imperial meal not in line with the wishes of the gods of the land?"

The God of Earth didn't deny it: "We are the body of the divine way, and we really can't stand the food and drink of the mortal world."

Jiajing looked at the wine: "This Baihua Xianjiu is made from hundreds of kinds of spirit flowers and brewed with the secret method of Maoshan, so it won't enter the mouth of the gods?"

The God of Earth explained: "The transmission of Maoshan is the authentic Taoism with a long history. It is an honor for the little god to taste this fine wine. However, after the world is polluted, this spiritual wine has become ordinary..."

When Jiajing thought that the ones he had used all these years were of a common level and had no spirituality as he had imagined, he felt a little resentful, and promised: "There are many spirits in the land of mountain gods today, but they do not come out of temples after all. Difficult! I have issued an order to order officials from all over the world to lead the people to sacrifice sincerely and protect the safety of all places!"

The land god stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, but our divine power is limited, we can try our best to manifest, whether we can protect the safety of the place, it is really difficult to guarantee!"

"The gods of the land are too modest..."

In fact, Jiajing knew that the God of Land could not bear such a big responsibility, so he deliberately elevated the other party, and after a few words of consolation, he took the opportunity to ask: "I have heard for a long time that Dongsheng Shenzhou used to have three islands and ten continents, immortals and elders, what kind of scene is it?"

The land god said: "The little god never went to the fairy family resort in person, but heard that the three fairy islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou overseas are full of auspicious clouds and light, auspicious mist and fragrant fragrance, colorful luan singing at the entrance of the cave, black cranes dancing on the top of the mountain, and blue sky. The lotus root, water and peaches are for wine, and the pears, fire, and jujubes can last forever, and the heavens and the Jiazi are hard to control, and the universe is only free..."

Jiajing showed sincere yearning: "Live as long as the heaven and earth, and shine as the sun and the moon. I am willing to give up the position of emperor to find such a great freedom and freedom!"

The land god smiled and said nothing.

Jiajing is also talking about it. If he is not a mortal emperor, a decree can use the power of the people and materials in the world, and he will only be farther away from the gods, so the next thing is the main topic: "My way of cultivation, the gods of the land can do it. Is there a way to point it out?"

The God of Land hurriedly said: "The little god is responsible for the land, and he doesn't know the way of Jindan, so he dare not point out His Majesty."

Jiajing seemed to be careless and said: "What about Master Li? He is capable of resuscitating the gods who have fallen into silence, and he is very capable, and can he pass the golden alchemy road?"

The God of Earth showed his respect: "Renren Li is pure and transcendent, which is rare in the world. How could a little god be able to evaluate his entry into Jindan Dao?"

Jiajing was a little moved. Although he repeatedly overestimated, he was still shocked to see such an approval from an orthodox god.

At the same time, it's a bit tasteful. This land god is only polite to him, but he really respects that person. Who is the emperor?
However, under the great temptation of attaining Taoism and becoming an immortal, Jiajing quickly restrained his emotions, and said with some emotion: "Since Li Zhenren entered the palace with the Dragon God and was conferred, he has never been seen. If he hadn't taken the position of Daoist, he would have died a long time ago." I have traveled all over the world and practiced medicine everywhere, but I am unwilling to give my heart to me after all..."

The Land God stopped talking, lowered his head, and took a sip of Baihua Niang.

Jiajing was a little unaccustomed to this kind of conversation falling on the ground, and it felt like no one would answer it, but he couldn't force it, so he could only pass it with a little embarrassment.

After a tasteless imperial meal, the God of Land bid farewell and left. Jiajing returned to the abode, sat down on the Taiji gossip bed, meditated for a while, and suddenly said, "Lu Fang, when do you think Master Li will enter the palace again?" ? Do we have to wait until the Dragon Temple and the Immortal Mansion are completed?"

Standing next to Lu Fang, he couldn't help being curious about the god who lived in front of him. Immediately said: "Since the master wants to meet Li Zhenren, why not invite him directly?"

Jiajing said in a deep voice: "If Master Li is taking care of the Dragon God, if I urge you like this, will it ruin the important matter of cultivation?"

Lu Fang said calmly: "In my opinion, the God of the Earth knows the importance, and if he passes the decree, it will not spoil things, and it will also let Master Li understand the concern of the master."

Jiajing's face calmed down: "You're right, I'll make a decree, and let him give an answer if it's not good enough!"

……

"Seventh attempt!"

Inside the treasure ship, Li Yan glanced at the spirit message of the land god, but ignored it, and focused his energy on Linghe in front of him.

His ten fingers caressed the neck of this spirit pet, and the light circle of the forbidden "spirit-locking ring" gradually deformed, but no matter how deep he explored, there was always a little core sticking to it.

After a full quarter of an hour, after Linghe felt a certain crisis pervading and uttered a frightened cry, Li Yan finally left with both hands.

This means that the attempt to break through the divine prohibition failed again.

However, he was in a calm state of mind and began to summarize the gains and losses.

"This spirit-locking ring uses a wonderful mystery, broad and profound. It is used to control disciples and spiritual pets. It is really a waste of money, but it is used in a rather rigid way. You know what it is and don't know why it is..."

"Basically, it is certain that this method was not created by Tao Zhongwen in his previous life, otherwise the 'seven needles control the gods' would not be able to stop Linghe's actions at all..."

After thinking for a moment, Li Yan returned to Jiajing's invitation.

"The more I see the living gods, the more I long for longevity. I can bear it until now, and I am worthy of Jiajing."

Everyone is afraid of death, especially the Ninth Five-Year Master, because their life is so good, how can they be willing to die?

And after more than 30 years of cultivating Taoism, Jiajing's longing for longevity has already reached the extreme point, but he can hold it back. This endurance is actually far beyond the comparison of ordinary people.

Li Yan thought about the life of this history-recognized faint king, who was crowned as one of the chief culprits in the downfall of Ming Dynasty by later generations, he was actually a little embarrassed.

In fact, Jiajing is somewhat similar to Li Longji. The biggest shortcoming is nothing else, that is, he has been in power for too long and died too late.

If the emperor had died 20 years earlier, what would remain in history would definitely be the image of a wise emperor.

The word Jiajing comes from the word "Jiajing Yinbang" in "Shangshu Wuyi", which means that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country prospers.

The Jiajing in the early period fit this year name very well. It is said in the history books that "everything will eliminate all bad governance, and the world will be ruled."

This is certainly an exaggeration. Some of the maladministration of the Ming Dynasty is difficult to solve at this stage, but it can be suppressed. Jiajing appointed Zhang Cong and Xia Yan as the chief assistants, promoted many capable ministers, and vigorously suppressed eunuchs. To govern the people, rectify the government, and reduce taxes and servitude"...

It can be said that except for the fact that the Ming army was too useless and could not be corrected for a while, the country was governed well in other aspects, so it is called "Jiajing New Deal" in history.

After all, the foundation is different. It is unrealistic to want to create a "Golden Age of Kaiyuan" under Li Longji's governance, but it is much better than the previous Zhengde Dynasty.

Wanli only saw that the emperor's grandfather ignored government affairs in the second half of his life, and he didn't notice that in the first half of his life, he also rectified the administration of officials and revitalized the country.

It's a pity, if those palace maids in Renyin Palace really strangled Jiajing to death, it would be a shameful death, but the history books commented very well on the big son of tomorrow, the small details are damaged, but the big ones are not bad .

In the end, Jiajing did not strangle him to death. On the contrary, Jiajing attributed the turn of the crisis to the effect of the mystery, and became more enthusiastic about advocating the Tao. It has become that every family is net and useless.

So in Li Yan's view, Jiajing lived too long, not to mention longevity.

Fortunately, in this period, the common people have not been wiped out, and he has already planned.

Li Yan stretched out his hand, took a jade bottle into his hand, and passed it along with the reply to the God of the Earth.

……

An hour later.

Jiajing's joyful voice echoed in the jingshe, and he said a happy event that made the eunuch and the living man around him fight against each other: "Really Li wants to teach the martial arts remotely, and teach me the method of alchemy?"

　Thanks to the book friends "Longlynn", "Rogeotarifos" and "、Panda g" for their rewards.
