The All-Heaven Road from Wudang

Chapter 338
The capital, True Immortal Court.

This is a very small Taoist temple, however, it is located in the deepest part of the imperial palace, if not summoned by the people in the temple, even the emperor would not be able to trespass.

The entire forbidden area of ​​Dali is this small Taoist temple.

However, this Taoist temple is not very luxurious, and it is even a little rudimentary.

The furnishings in the hall, apart from the enshrined Sanqing statues and incense burners, there is only one dilapidated futon.

Sitting on the futon was a person, it should be said, an old man.

The old man's hair is black and white, his face is rosy like a baby's, and he is wearing a bright red robe with a flame mark embroidered on the robe, which is extremely eye-catching.

And at the moment when Mo Li used Nuwa Contemplation to break the living Buddha's secret technique and took off the living Buddha's head, the old man suddenly opened his eyes, and a hot flame shot out from the eyes, and it disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Spiritual power fluctuations!"

A sullen look appeared on the old man's face, and he said: "Okay, if you dare to use spiritual power in the capital, I want to see who is so brave!"

……

In Duke Dingguo's mansion, everyone lost control of their expressions and were extremely surprised.

Looking at the chubby head, although Jian Yingzhang had recognized it, he still asked uncertainly, "Is this a Living Buddha?"

"Yes." Mo Li replied calmly.

Silence, silence again...

In the small study room, there was a terrifying silence for a while.

Living Buddha, the number one master in the Northland, the contemporary great master.

His head was just held in the hands of a young man like a plaything!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have imagined this scene? !

As for how exciting and fierce the battle would be, it might not be obvious. Li Li stood there with his blue shirt neatly trimmed and his expression relaxed, not a single trace of blood on his body.

It took them only half a cup of tea to come here, and Mo Li went to the Dabao Temple first, and then rushed to the Dingguo Mansion, the journey was much farther than them, and the real killing time was only a few breaths away.

That is the Great Treasure Temple, surrounded by masters, and the people who kill are even living Buddhas!

But this person is still like picking something out of a bag, how high is this martial arts? !

Li Li didn't care about these people's thoughts. He just looked at Lu Jiu and said with a smile: "Shuai Lu, I haven't seen you for many years. I heard that it's your [-]th birthday. It's not a respect."

After all, he presented the head.

"The head of the Living Buddha!"

Lu Jiu stroked his beard with a smile, and said, "Okay, Mr. Mo is a great gift, this head is a big deal in Lu's heart!"

"only……"

A look of worry flashed in his eyes.

Mo Li raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, could it be that this living Buddha has some powerful accomplices, Lu Shuai is worried about revenge, so I will help you solve it next time."

He walked down the mountain this time to settle his karma.

As a dignified disciple of Qingyun, the Daoxing of the ninth level of the Qing Dynasty, let alone a master of ordinary martial arts, even a veteran who has been famous in the practice world for a long time, may not be his opponent!
What has he to be afraid of?
"As the great master of the living Buddha, there is only one statue in the entire northern grassland, so there is no one from the same sect."

Wuhua said: "Mr. Mo is over-concerned. It must be that Lu Shuai is worried that the northern prairie army will go south. Once the Living Buddha dies, Lu Shuai will have no scruples in raising troops to go north. They will probably preemptively strike."

Lu Jiu shook his head lightly, and said: "I have already made arrangements in advance for the soldiers and horses in the north, and the Hulu will not be able to attack for a while. How many years have you accomplished in practice?"

The fact that he joined Qingyunmen was due to the fate between Lu Jiu and Master Shuiyue, Mo Li said: "Why, is it possible that Lu Shuai wants to use Mo's Taoism to subdue the northern captives?"

"But it's not that I don't help, but that the two armies are fighting on the battlefield, hundreds of thousands of lives, if I kill them all, it will hurt the peace of heaven, but other trivial matters within my ability, I am obliged to do so."

He came down from the mountain to repay his kindness and settle the cause and effect.

The living Buddha wanted to assassinate Lu Jiu, and he did it at the right time, but if he really killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the north, if he didn't mention his own sins, the Qingyun sect would take action to clean up the sect!

Naturally, Mo Li couldn't do such stupid things.

Lu Jiu sighed, and said: "Young Master Mo misunderstood, I didn't mean that, I was worried about your safety, young master, do you know that practitioners are not allowed to meddle in the affairs of dynasties in the world?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and there is such a saying?

Mo Li frowned, Tian Buyi and his wife had never told him about this matter.

Besides, Master Shuiyue also intervened in the change of the dynasty, and killed the national teacher and sword god with his own hands, so that Lu Jiu could return to the north and support the prince to ascend the throne!
"I would like to hear the details." Mo Li said.

"It's a long story."

Lu Jiu pondered for a while, as if he was recalling, he said: "I also found out about this when I accidentally looked up the royal secrets when Your Majesty ascended the throne. Punishment, even, some were directly beheaded on the spot."

"When Taizu pacified the world, some Taoists tried to set fire to the barracks. At that moment, dark clouds overturned, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and thunder fell from the sky, killing that demon on the spot!"

"When Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, an old man threatened that Dali would pay tribute to a thousand boys and girls each year, otherwise the imperial city would be destroyed. That night, a divine fire fell from the sky, and the nameless old man was burned for three days and three nights, and finally burned to the ground. into ashes!"

……

Lu Jiu narrated a few examples, and then said: "In the first [-] years since Dali established the country, there were no less than ten such cases. In the following hundreds of years, no one who cultivated immortals dared to intervene in the affairs of the dynasty. You have committed a crime, Mr. Mo!" If you don't taboo, you have to take care of yourself."

Li Li nodded, feeling rather surprised that someone really cares about this matter.

But when you think about it carefully, there is some truth to it. If the cultivators wantonly interfere in the change of the dynasty, wouldn't those common people be like pigs and dogs, let them be enslaved?
It’s okay if the factions of the righteous way, they have no demands on ordinary people, and they will not deliberately oppress them, but if they are members of the demon sect, there are countless ways to refine the treasures of evil sects by taking the soul essence and blood, and I am afraid that many people will be killed. mutilate.

He said: "I know about this, Shuai Lu doesn't need to worry."

He asked himself that there was no big problem with what he did. Didn't the living Buddha use his own power to prevent the army from going north?
He took off the monk's head for Lu Jiu's safety, and he never intervened in the war between the two countries, so no one could fault him.

Besides, if Shuiyue could do such a thing, couldn't he, Mo Li, do it?

When it comes to Taoism, I am afraid that the current Shuiyue is not as clever as him!
Of course the most important point is that Tian Buyi and his wife never warned him.

Qingyun sect is the largest sect in the world, most of the rules in this world are not set by Qingyun sect, if Tian Buyi never told him, it means it is not a big deal.

"Since the young master knows what's in his mind, I won't say anything. Come here, prepare the food and wine."

Lu Jiu ordered, smiled at Mo Li, and said, "Once upon a time, Mr. Mo, you and I should only sleep when we're drunk."

……

The imperial palace, the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Here, it is the place where the morning court is held on weekdays. It is solemn and sacred.

However, the current emperor, who was supposed to be the owner of this hall, was a middle-aged man in a bright yellow dragon robe, but he stood aside respectfully, serving the figure on the dragon chair with a low eyebrow.

It was an old man with sharp eyes, wearing a bright red robe, and the flame mark on his waist seemed to be on fire. It was the old man from Zhenxianyuan.

He raised his eyes and looked at the Emperor Dali at the side, and said indifferently: "If you find out anything, tell the old man about it."

"Yes, High Immortal."

The emperor said respectfully: "There are three strange things that happened in the city today. One is the commander of the Nancheng Army and Horse Division. The third concubine of his family has been insane for half a month. He invited a Taoist to come to the door. After some actions, he suddenly regained his sanity today; The second is that a seven-colored lotus bloomed in the lotus pond of Xuanzhen Temple; as for the third, the sword master Mo Li, who had disappeared for many years, re-entered the capital, and took the head of the Living Buddha of the Northland lightly in full view of the public."

"Only these three?" The old man asked coldly.

"The Jinyi Mansion has used all the spies, and today there are only these three strange incidents." The emperor said affirmatively.

The old man nodded slightly, and said: "Tell me the addresses of these three places, and I will go and see for myself, and see who dares to be so bold as to make trouble in the capital!"

……

"Shuai Lu, I haven't seen you for five years. You've aged a lot."

At the banquet, Mo Li looked at Lu Jiu's wrinkled face, and couldn't help but secretly lamented the vicissitudes of time. Although Lu Jiu was in crisis five years ago, he had a heroic spirit and was not afraid of life and death. He was about to enter the capital .

However, now, in only five years, his hair is already gray and full of old age. It seems that he has not lived as comfortably as he imagined during the period of taking power.

"The road is chosen by oneself, and people always have time to grow old."

Lu Jiuhun picked up the wine glass indifferently, and said: "Mr. Mo, this cup is toast to you. I never thought that I could see the face of the young master again in this life, or at such a critical moment, you twice. Saving my life is a great kindness, and I don’t know how to repay it.”

"Shuai Lu is serious."

Mo Li smiled and said: "Your Excellency saved my life first, and then let me worship in Qingyun Sect to practice Taoism. Speaking of which, I owe Shuai Lu a lot."

Lu Jiu shook his head and smiled, and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

He said: "If you are kind or not, let's not talk about it. Since I can see Mr. Mo today, I have one more matter. I want to ask Mr. Mo."

"Even though Shuai Lu said it, as long as I know it, I will know everything and say everything."

Mo Li replied.

Lu Jiu put down his wine glass, with a look of nostalgia in his eyes, and said, "I don't know my Xueqi, how has she been these few years?"

Lu Shuai, who is famous all over the world, is the seed of infatuation, with only one daughter, Lu Xueqi, under his knees.

Since his wife passed away early, he has never had a remarriage, and he and Lu Xueqi's father and daughter have lived together for more than ten years.

In the past few years, the emperor granted her a marriage, and even though she had new children, her paternal love for Lu Xueqi did not diminish at all, but became more and more heavy with the passage of time.

When she left, Lu Xueqi was already a slim young girl.

Thinking of her daughter's voice and smile, Lu Jiu's heart was full of longing.

"Junior Sister Lu?"

Li Li also saw how much Lu Jiu missed his beloved daughter, so he couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, Shuai Lu, Junior Sister Lu is doing well, she is worshiped by Master Shuiyue, and she is very doted on. I can come down the mountain to visit you in a few years."

This is not a false statement, Lu Xueqi's talent is astonishing, not far behind Lin Jingyu, even Master Shuiyue gave her the Tianya Excalibur, she will definitely be the pillar of Qingyun sect in the future.

After Qimai's martial arts meeting, when she emerges and is free to walk down the mountain, it is natural to come to the capital to visit Lu Jiu.

"That's good, that's good."

Hearing that his beloved daughter was doing well, Lu Jiu was also relieved. Although he and Li Li hadn't been in contact for long, he knew the character of the person in front of him, so he wouldn't lie to him about such things.

He raised his glass and said, "Hearing Mr. Mo's words today made a big stone fall from my heart, and I'll toast you again."

Li Li raised his glass again. Although he usually doesn't drink much, it's okay to have a few drinks when old friends reunite.

But before he drank the glass of wine, a wave of extremely pure spiritual power rushed straight to this place, his face couldn't help changing, and he subconsciously looked outside.

Everyone was a little surprised to see his sudden change of face, but Li Li said: "Be careful, everyone, there are guests here."

what guest?
They were surprised, followed Li Li's eyes, and suddenly saw a red long rainbow coming towards here at an extremely fast speed, and they couldn't help but change their faces!

This... is another fairy? !

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the red Changhong had already arrived in front of him, hanging high in the sky, revealing the figure inside, but it was an old man in red with a haughty expression and sharp eyes.

He stared down indifferently, and shouted coldly: "Who is Li Li, come out to this old man!"

Under the blessing of spiritual power, the voice spread throughout the entire Lu residence in an instant!
Everyone couldn't help but thump in their hearts. The tone of the old fairy was clearly here to find fault and provoke!
They looked at Mo Li, but Mo Li smiled faintly, showing no trace of fear.

The man stood up, went to the door, said: "Next is Mo Li. Seeing how fellow Taoist is dressed, he is from Fenxiang Valley. I don't know why you are looking for Mo?"

That bright red robe with the imprint of flames is exactly the standard clothing of Fenxiang Valley.

"You know the identity of the old man, so it seems that the old man has found the wrong person!"

There was a look of joy in the old man's eyes. Today he has already searched the other two places.

The Taoist who cured the concubine was nothing more than a vulgar man with superb medical skills, not worth mentioning; and the colorful lotus was a fake auspicious auspiciousness painted by Xuanzhen Guan himself with fuel to increase the incense.

Unexpectedly, this third place was found by him.

"Did you use your spiritual power in the city today, and killed that Northern Living Buddha?" asked the old man.

Li Li frowned slightly, displeased with his tone, but still replied: "I did it."

"Okay, since it's you, then the old man didn't find the wrong person!"

The old man said coldly: "You waste your spiritual power, the old man can still save your life!"
