My Journey to the West on the Heavenly Road

Chapter 283 Receiving the Divine Occupation (Two in One)

"I'm so sorry for keeping the priest waiting."

"It's okay, the matter of practice is important."

After exchanging pleasantries, Jiang Yuan sat opposite the meritorious officer on duty, toasted a few cups of warm wine, and then asked the meritorious officer what happened.

The year-end meritorious Cao put down his wine glass and said with a smile: "This is two, the first is the follow-up of the Xiniu Hezhou Shanshui Niu.

Recently, Zhenjun was free, so he came to express his thanks and gave some rewards, but for that matter, fellow Taoists contributed a lot, how can we be greedy for credit. "

The purpose of this unclear statement was to help Marshal Tianpeng cover up the scandal, Jiang Yuan naturally understood.

But what he didn't expect was that the Dharma Protector King Kong, Wufang Jiedi and the four meritorious servicemen would always remember his meritorious service, and even sent the yearly meritorious servicemen who were familiar with him to personally come and give the gift of thanks.

"You priests are too polite." Jiang Yuan said modestly, "You were the main force that day, and I took advantage of it."

Gongcao waved his hand, "Your achievements are obvious to all."

As he spoke, he took out a small boat the size of a palm from his bosom, "Zhenjun sent three boats of sand from the Tianhe River. Venerable Vajra took one boat, and I will share the boat with Jiedi and others. The rest of the boat, This fellow daoist accepts it."

Jiang Yuan pretended to evade, and the meritorious officer of the year directly sent the boat to Jiang Yuan, and then glared: "You deserve it, you refuse, could it be that you don't like me and other little gods, and don't like this river sand?" ?”

Jiang Yuan had no choice but to accept it with a helpless smile: "Then, I have no choice but to be respectful rather than obedient."

Only then did Cao Cao's face change, he smiled again, pointed to the boat and said, "Don't look at it as a small boat, in fact, if the river sand in it is spread out, it will be a silver boat two feet wide and one hundred feet long. Sand River."

Jiang Yuan suddenly showed surprise, put the boat in his palm, and looked at it curiously.

"But it's just coarse sand," Cao Cao was very satisfied with Jiang Yuan's performance, and said with a smile: "It can only be used as a material for refining magic weapons and weapons, but it cannot be refined into the 'Tianhe Yinsha' of the buffalo." .”

"If you want to refine the coarse sand into that kind of Tianhe silver sand, you must do it within the Tianhe River, otherwise, the refined silver sand will only instantly turn into ordinary quicksand."

After all, Gong Cao looked straight at Jiang Yuan, but he didn't see the disappointment he imagined.
"Of course, Marshal Canopy can take it as a reward, and it is naturally not a mortal thing."

The year-end meritorious Cao laughed, and continued, "Using river sand, you can extinguish water and fire; using river sand to refine weapons, you can make weapons and magic weapons of any weight, as heavy as a mountain or as light as a goose feather; finally, this small boat can also It is a magic weapon, and by riding it, you can cross the Tianhe River and tour Qingmeng."

"This is really precious." Jiang Yuan smiled wryly.

The meritorious officer on duty immediately shook his head, leaned forward slightly, pointed to the sky, blinked and whispered: "Compared to that person's face, this is nothing."

Jiang Yuan suddenly laughed. Marshal Tianpeng wanted to shut their mouths, so naturally he had to be more generous. After thinking for a while, he said, "I won't be returning to Xiniu Hezhou in a short time."

The meritorious officer on duty nodded, "That's fine, the mountain god and the land are being conferred on Haoshan Mountain. There are a lot of things going on. It's been a while, and there's nothing to see. Let's wait a little longer. We'll go when everything is done. There must be a different scenery."

After the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Please trouble the priest to make a trip, I respect the priest."

Jiang Yuan put away Tianhe River sand, and after toasting a glass of wine, he asked curiously: "Didn't the priest say that there are two things, this is the first, and the second?"

Hearing this, the meritorious officer on duty suddenly stared at Jiang Yuan with strange eyes, with surprise, envy, and vague respect.

"Why does the priest look at me like this?" Jiang Yuan felt uncomfortable being looked at.

The meritorious service officer of the year suddenly expressed emotion, "I was in Haoshan, and I once said that you have great luck, but now it seems that this statement still underestimates you."

"Treasures of humanity such as the Monument of the King of Yu can be found by fellow Taoists, and they are envoys of Ruyi, who overwhelm the Jinghe Dragon Mansion. It is not an exaggeration to say 'Heaven's proud son'."

Jiang Yuan wondered, "Does the priest also know about this?"

He knew that the news about King Yu's stele falling into his hands would spread sooner or later, but it's only been three months, and it's already spread to Tiangong?
Seeing Jiang Yuan's doubts, the meritorious officer of the year explained with a chuckle, "Heaven governs the world. I have always paid close attention to meritorious treasures such as the King Yu Monument. Not long after you left Yuelu Mountain, Tiangong received the news. .Then there is the propaganda of the Dragon Clan"

Speaking of this, the Gongcao priest paused, and asked back: "You are puzzled, the dragon clan has suffered a great loss in your hands, and the dignified dragon sons have been taken in as servants, so disgraced, why publicize it?"

Jiang Yuan frowned, and after a while, his eyes turned cold, and he sneered, "I'm afraid he's going to flatter me!"

"That's right!"

The meritorious officer on duty nodded immediately, with a solemn expression on his face:
"The Monument of King Yu can suppress the flood and calm the water, and control the world's water spirits. With this treasure in your hand, not to mention the dragons who want to back away from you, all aquatic creatures in the three realms will be afraid of you."

"However, no living beings are willing to be controlled by others. You have this treasure. Although you can deter those water beasts, you can also become a thorn in their eyes! The more the dragons promote your 'divine power', the more the water spirits of the three realms will fight against you!" You are jealous!"

Wuqian, the golden mouse, the old monkey, and the four strong generals who were accompanying him immediately became furious and cursed the dragon clan for being despicable and shameless.

"Master, the Jinghe Dragon Mansion made a promise with you not to offend each other, but secretly did such a sinister thing, it's not a son of man! You are so kind to pass on the red-bearded little dragon's meditation formula!"

Wuqian erupted in anger, roared with puffy eyes, then stared fiercely at the water pool in Shuilian Cave, bared his teeth and shouted: "Since the dragon clan did evil things first, we can't swallow our anger, why don't we just take that little dragon as a knife?"

Jiang Yuan turned his head to look at the angry donkey, narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you want to do?"

"Of course it's skinning and cramping, and then deboning to draw blood," Wuqian blurted out. "Finally, we will hold a feast of dragon meat, so that the little monkeys can also taste the taste of dragon blood and dragon meat."

As he said that, he licked his lips and said to King Jin next to him, "Golden Mouse, you have never eaten dragon meat, have you? Let me tell you, it is delicious!"

King Jin lay on the stone table, glanced at the excited donkey, rolled his eyes and sneered, "There is a saying in the world, 'dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground', although I have never eaten dragon meat, if you continue, I will Definitely try the donkey meat first.”

"You golden mouse, don't think that you dare to bully me because you have a supernatural power. If it weren't for the master, I would be fine."

Wuqian yelled at King Jin, but when he cursed, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and after a jolt, he reacted abruptly.

Seeing the donkey, he turned his head slowly, met Jiang Yuan's cold gaze for an instant, shrank his head, languished, and whispered: "Master, master, I'm not worth it for you."

Jiang Yuan said expressionlessly, "It's snowing, and the weather is cold. I'm afraid the fairy seedlings in Taogu won't be able to collect nectar, why don't you help them?"

Wuqian looked at the delicious food and wine on the table, and then at the snowflakes that were getting bigger and bigger outside the Shuilian Cave. He said weakly, "Master, I've been feeding that seedling for almost three months. I'm afraid it must have been drunk a long time ago." enough."

"Huh?" Jiang Yuan's face turned cold.

"I know, I'm going right now."

Wuqian immediately drooped his head, stood up and walked out slowly, and soon, he turned into a cloud and jumped out of the water curtain.

"It made the priest laugh."

Jiang Yuan looked at the meritorious man of the year, pointed at the figure of Longlin who was leaving, and cursed: "This bastard has a stubborn nature, and really doesn't know how to be polite."

"Loyal to protect the Lord, his heart is commendable!"

Priest Gongcao showed admiration on his face, then changed his tone, and looked at Jiang Yuan suspiciously, "Fellow Daoists seem to have some disagreements?"

Jiang Yuan's eyes sank, he shook his head, nodded again, and said, "I think what the dragons did was due to the initiative of the dragons from all over the world, or in other words, it's the East China Sea Dragon Palace, and the Jinghe Dragon Palace, I also understand Jinghe Dragon Palace." River Dragon King."

"That Dragon King, although he is acting rampantly, all his actions are for his 'name'. Even if he is resentful in his heart, he will try his best to cover up his reputation."

"On the contrary, the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea is good at bearing humiliation and carrying heavy burdens, and is easy to calculate."

The reason why Jiang Yuan had such an evaluation of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea was that Sun Wukong made a big disturbance in the Dragon Palace, and the Dragon King of the East China Sea promised in every possible way in person, and even respectfully gave away the golden armor and cloud shoes, but he turned his head and sued the heaven.

Of course, this matter is Sun Wukong's fault, and what the Dragon King did is completely understandable, but from it, we can also get a glimpse of the Dragon King's ability to endure humiliation.

The second is the process of conspiring with the Dragon King of the West Sea to take revenge on God Lord Dayao;

The third is that Jiang Yuan suppressed the Seventh Prince in front of the Dragon Palace three months ago. He thought that after the Dragon King returned, he would be angry and send troops to attack him. , try Jiang Yuan first.

After figuring out Jiang Yuan's strength and knowing the existence of the King Yu Monument, three months have passed, and none of the Dragon Palace Shui Clan came to harass Huaguo Mountain, nor did they hear that Dragon Palace was planning any revenge. Obviously, they gave up. The mind of confrontation.

Through the calculations of the Dragon Clan on Taoshi Mountain, Jiang Yuan certainly knew that the Dragon Clan was definitely not a good person, and the patience at this time must be to accumulate strength for future revenge.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan quickly guessed that such insidious "killing" was probably done by the East China Sea Dragon Palace.

The year-round meritorious Cao obeys orders in the Heavenly Palace, and is also a Taoist Dharma protector. His daily affairs are mostly in the four continents, and he doesn't often act in the four oceans, so he doesn't have much communication with the dragons of the four seas, and he doesn't know much about the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.

At this moment, after hearing Jiang Yuan's words, he couldn't help frowning and said: "No wonder the dragon clan is so active. It turns out that the East China Sea Dragon Palace is leading. The East China Sea Dragon Palace is the leader of the four seas, and it is the leader of the dragon clan in the world. I don't think it is like this."

After all, he was concerned about the face of the dragon clan, and the priest Gongcao didn't say any bad words in the end.

After sighing, Priest Gongcao looked at Jiang Yuan, "If so, the situation of fellow Daoists will be even more difficult."

Jiang Yuan was not afraid at all, and chuckled lightly: "Since I took the King Yu Monument, I have already thought about such consequences. There is no such thing as taking advantage of nothing in the world, and you have to bear what you get. Let them do it." Bar."

"Fellow Daoist is heroic!" The meritorious Cao applauded, then shook his head and smiled wryly, "So, I'm worrying too much."

"I am very grateful that the priest has taken so much trouble for my matter." Jiang Yuan took the initiative to pour wine for Gongcao and said gratefully.

Seeing the wine glass overflowing, Cao Cao picked it up, touched Jiang Yuan lightly, and then drank it down in one gulp.

Putting down the wine glass, Gongcao hesitated for a while, and suddenly said: "Fellow Taoist, would you like to receive the vocation?"

Jiang Yuan showed surprise on his face, he glanced at the meritorious officer of the year, and said in a joking tone: "I'm just a ghost, but I also entered the magic eye of Lingxiao Tiangong?"

"Although Taoist friends are only ghosts and immortals, their supernatural powers and mana are very extraordinary, so there is no need to belittle yourself." The meritorious Cao shook his head, and then said word by word: "More importantly, you have a stele of King Yu!"

Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, and immediately laughed out loud, "Don't think too much about it. The Lingxiao Palace is in charge of the Three Realms, so how could you covet a magic weapon."

"Then, what do you mean?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"It's not the meaning of Tiangong." Priest Gongcao shook his head vigorously, then looked at Jiang Yuan, pursed his lips and said, "It's True Monarch Shui De."

True Lord Shui De?

Jiang Yuan was startled, he didn't expect it to be this heavenly official at all, but after thinking about it, he also guessed a little bit, the key point of which might be in the Monument of King Yu.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist has also thought of it, it is really the Monument of King Yu!"

The meritorious officer on duty looked at Jiang Yuan's expression, and when he saw that he was surprised, he became thoughtful, and after secretly praising him for being really smart, he continued:

"Shuide Zhenjun was ordered by the heavens to control the four seas and the world's water systems, but the stele of King Yu of the Taoist friend can control the world's rivers and control the world's water beasts."

Gongcao glanced at Jiang Yuan, and said leisurely: "I don't say what it means, but you should be able to understand it."

Jiang Yuan rolled his eyelids and said casually, "So, what does Zhenjun mean, but let's be blunt."

The year-end meritorious Cao suddenly laughed, "Fellow Daoist, do you think that I came here under the order of True Monarch Shui De?"

Jiang Yuan looked up, although he didn't speak, but the meaning was very clear.

Priest Gongcao froze for a moment, and suddenly smiled wryly, "Oh, it seems that Fellow Daoist really misunderstood."

"Actually, Master Shui De didn't talk about fellow Taoists with me. It's because I have a friend who works in Wuhao Palace."

"On that day, the promotion of the Dragon Clan spread to Tiangong, and I happened to be chatting with that friend, because I was worried about the situation of fellow Taoists, and was spotted by that friend."

"My good friend came quickly and was very wise, so I expressed my worry and asked him to think of a way to solve the troubles of fellow Taoist."

"After hearing this, he quickly laughed, called Dashan directly, and then came up with a plan, that is, to invite fellow Taoists to accept the celestial duty."

"After entering the Shinto system, no monsters dare to harass fellow daoists at will, and the stele of Yu Wang, a fellow daoist, can help heaven better manage the three realms of water, which is the best of both worlds."

"My good friend, of course, also has selfish intentions. He just wants to invite Taoist friends to join Wuhao Palace to assist Zhenjun Shui De."

After Jiang Yuan heard it, he felt strange, and at the same time, he was speechless and grateful to this meritorious priest.

What I am grateful for is naturally the priest's generous help.

The one who was speechless had been arguing for a long time, it was just the priest's wishful thinking, he thought he was "fancy" by Tiangong.

It's self-indulgent.

That's right, Sun Wukong made a big disturbance in the Dragon Palace and the underworld, and was sued by the Dragon King and the King of Hades. He just disturbed the Lingxiao Palace, but he didn't pay attention at all, so he dismissed it casually.

As for me, I just obtained a personal treasure, and I am only a ghost in terms of cultivation. Although the lawsuit with the Dragon King of Jinghe also made trouble in the Lingxiao Palace, no matter how I look at it, I will not be able to take the initiative to invite him to accept the celestial vocation the point.

Unless he gets together by himself and mobilizes his friends and relationships, he may be able to work in the Lingxiao Temple to discuss what priesthood should be conferred on him.

Pressing his thoughts, Jiang Yuan looked at the meritorious service officer of the year, and first thanked: "I am sorry to bother the gods, this friendship, I am very touched."

Then he bluntly refused: "However, my cultivation base is still low, and I'm used to idleness, so I don't have the idea of ​​receiving the celestial duty now."

The year-round meritorious Cao was not surprised, and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist's talent and luck are extraordinary, and he will definitely get the fairy fruit, so he really doesn't need to be trapped by the gods."

In fact, after seeing Jiang Yuan's boldness and fearlessness, Gongcao knew that Jiang Yuan might not obey his plan.

Choosing to continue expressing his thoughts was not just for the sake of Jiang Yuan's affection, it also had some vigilance in it, such as—Shui De Zhenjun.
