king of black mist.

Chapter 288 One step away

The area where Taoist scriptures are stored in the inner library is lit with refreshing incense. I don’t know if it’s from the Taiyuan Hospital or some Taoist priest who paid tribute. It can clear the mind and refresh the mind and improve concentration.

When Li Changzhou came up, he asked the female officer in charge of the internal treasury to put out all the incense.

It is difficult to change from extravagance to frugality, and he does not want to develop the habit of 'relying on external objects to improve concentration and enter "concentration"'.

The Daoist scriptures in the inner library of the palace are all higher than the books in the Chaotian Palace in terms of level.

"Da Ri Tathagata Mantra" has half, "Earth Sha 72 Changes" has 24 changes, and "Tian Gang 36 Laws" has eight methods.

Others include "Shenxiao Yinlei Energizing Alchemy Qi", "One Qi Transforms Three Purities, and the General Outline of the Three Buddhas", "Ancient Escape Methods 64" (sorted out by later generations, which contains individual escape methods), " The Immortal Bone of Immortals", "Bagua Zhijue", "Treasures of Enlightenment in the Cave and Paradise" and so on.

It's like seeing a table full of favorite delicacies and not knowing which one to eat for a while.

After hesitating for a while, Li Changzhou still picked up the most famous "Tiangang 36 Laws". There are only eight ways of practicing in detail on it, and the rest are either incomplete, unable to practice, or simply have only one name.

The eight methods are: mend the sky and protect the sun, mediate good fortune, return to the sky and the sun, defy the future, bring the dead back to life, fly to support traces, turn stones into gold, and see through walls.

Mending the sky and enjoying the sun - the mana is so powerful that it can mend the sky, take a bath in the sun, use this Tiangang method, the amount and power of the mana will be increased by ten times, and there is no upper limit;

Mediation of good fortune——Nuwa created man with this Tiangang method, which interferes with the birth and death of matter in the universe;
Returning to the sky and returning to the sun - a Tiangang law that goes back to the past, it is also recorded that the police may arrest people in time (translated by Li Changzhou), and you cannot return to the past and go to the future at will;

Many gods can travel to the future. Although returning to the sky and returning to the sun is miraculous, Li Changzhou does not think it is too strange.

The remaining five Tiangang methods are equally powerful. Li Changzhou put aside the "Tiangang 36 methods" when he remembered the cultivation method - the entry requirements for the insight into the wall are already the lowest, and all of them require the magic power of a human being.

The mediation of good fortune and turning stones into gold requires the magic power of heavenly immortals. The two heavenly methods, one fundamentally produces and destroys matter, and the other fundamentally changes matter.

He watched "Di Sha 72" again, and the requirements were lower, but some of them also required human magic power.

After memorizing it, Li Changzhou didn't have anything in particular he wanted to read, so he picked up a copy of "The Supreme Way of the Human Body's Sky Eye".

This book of Taoism says that the sky also has eyes, which can see everything and have infinite power. People can open an eye opening in the body to attract the eyes of the sky.

Human celestial eyes have different effects and strengths, and each has its own magic.

In this Dao Fa, there is also a message from the creator, which roughly means:

Since the eyes of the sky can be borrowed, the ears, nose, hands, feet, and all parts of the body should be borrowed. I hope that the latecomers can continue to create on the basis of the eyes of the sky, until one day, the whole body will be replaced with "sky" .

"If you replace your whole body with 'sky', will you still be yourself?"

As a person who is extremely confident and narcissistic about his body, Li Changzhou doesn't even want to use the spell to change his appearance, let alone let someone live in his body.

But it is not useless, at least it provides ideas.

He doesn't like letting heaven live in his own body, but he can live in other people's bodies to protect Li Qianxia and Yang Qinglan, or monitor and control other people.

Li Changzhou put this method aside.

Even if you want to study it is not now.

He stretched out his hand to take "One Qi Transforms Three Purities, The General Outline of the Three Lifes of Buddhism", just as he unfolded the Dao Dharma, he suddenly frowned and raised his head.

The female officer who had brought him in before and was told not to disturb her was standing at the entrance of the inner library's book collection area.

"What's the matter?" Li Changzhou lowered his head and continued to read the Taoism in his hand, guessing in his heart that it was Emperor Jiajing who came to look for him, otherwise how could a female official ignore his order.

There is a possibility that the female officer thought he was too handsome, so she came to seduce him. In Nie Xiaoqian's words, it was: "If you can't sleep at a moonlit night, I wish Xiuyan well."

The female officer looked at him and took her own head off.

Li Changzhou turned the Dao Fa to the next page.

The black mist standing between the female officer and Li Changzhou took off his "head", and the "head" left the "body", turning into a shapeless mist, which slowly merged into the black mist.

On the "neck" of the black mist, wisps of very thin and light smoke re-shaped the shape of the head.

["Ghost Picking Head" copied successfully, it is detected that the player's 'master' skill is full, please choose a skill to replace...]

Li Changzhou raised his head and saw the female officer holding his head behind Hei Wu.

player?

Definitely a player!
Besides players, who else could do such weird things in the Forbidden City?

It's useless to look at the skill introduction.

[do not replace]

A flame swayed and grew out of the red charcoal in the copper basin at the feet, and flew out with a whoosh sound, and a hole was burned out between the eyebrows and abdomen of the head held by the female officer.

The female officer fell to the ground with a thud, her head rolled out, and she hit the cabinet before stopping.

No ID card.

According to the introduction of "Ghost Picking the Head" in my mind, this female officer was also infected by skills.

With a wave of Li Changzhou's sleeves, there was a sound of wind, and a handful of flames burst out from the charcoal basin, burning the female officer to ashes.

He continued to read "One Qi Transforms the Three Purities, and the General Outline of the Three Worlds of Buddhism".

Three Qings: Taiqing, Shangqing, Yuqing;
Three lives: past life, present life, and future life;
The book says: The names and effects of Buddhist and Taoist methods are different, but they are all changes and applications of the "essence, energy, and spirit" of the human body.
Something must have happened in the palace, but what does it have to do with him?
◇

Something happened to Li Qianxia, ​​Yang Qinglan, Yao Chi, and Bi.

Just when they thought that the removal of their heads would spread all the way to the Jiaotai Palace, all the eunuchs and maids picked up their heads and put them back.

After the head was installed, they stood up and looked at the corner where they were, while slowly placing their hands on the sides of the head.

"Let's go!" Yang Qinglan waved his hand wishfully, the ground surged like a chest, broke through the shackles of gold bricks in the blink of an eye, and blocked the crowd and the headless eunuch and maid like a hill.

The water girl wrapped herself around the crowd, like extinguishing flames, swallowing up the figures of the crowd.

When they reappeared, they returned to Oike.

".My aunt is going to be scared!" Li Qianxia was still in shock. Being watched by so many expressionless headless ghosts, a normal person would probably have nightmares for ten and a half months.

"The Forbidden City is basically finished," Yao Chi said.

"I can't find the body of the zombie fungus, and it's not just the Forbidden City." Yang Qinglan said.

"Isn't it enough to just destroy it? Do you want me to take action?" Bi didn't care.

Yang Qinglan was caught off guard when she used "Life and Death Follow", and Li Changzhou, who was concentrating on reading Taoist scriptures, did not have time to use "Takong", and his shoes were wet.

".What are you doing?" Li Changzhou stepped on his feet, came out of the water, and put the "Forging Book of Ancient Law Wenjing Jade Slips" in his hand into the storage bag on his waist.

"The situation is complicated—"

"Brother, you scared me to death!" Li Qianxia threw herself into Li Changzhou's arms.

Li Changzhou patted her on the shoulder and looked at Yang Qinglan.

Yang Qinglan glanced at Li Qianxia, ​​and continued to explain: "——I heard from Yaochi that there are players in the palace. We originally planned to inquire about the news, but we encountered a zombie fungus. We are afraid that you will be infected by accident, so we called you over."

Li Changzhou knew what they were talking about.

He didn't open his mouth to talk about the "decapitated ghost", because there are many people here.

"This is an opportunity," he mused, "Go back first, I will go to Jiajing and ask him to give Shao Yuanjie an order to see his strength."

"Aren't you afraid that Shao Yuanjie will ask Jiajing to give you orders?" Yao Chi laughed, "They have been looking for trouble for you before."

"At that time, I hadn't proved myself yet. Now that Jiajing puts all his hopes of becoming a fairy on me, why do they bother me?"

After Li Changzhou finished speaking, he patted the shoulder of the younger sister in his arms, and straightened her upright.

He explained to her: "Call me immediately if something happens, this mission is more dangerous than usual, even this kind of thing happens in the palace suppressed by dragon veins."

"Yes." Li Qianxia nodded obediently.

It was the same before, after watching a ghost movie, Li Changzhou asked her to agree to anything, as long as she was willing to accompany her to the toilet and sleep at night.

The waves surged up and wiped them all out again, leaving Li Changzhou alone on the water surface of the Yuchi.

He looked around to make sure no one had noticed, and appeared directly outside the side hall door.

The eunuch on duty froze in fright.

A spirited eunuch hurried into the hall to report, and came out soon.

"Shen Xianhou, please come in."

Li Changzhou nodded to him, walked into the side hall, and then into the Nuan Pavilion.

Emperor Jiajing was wearing Taoist clothes, sitting cross-legged, and was practicing the breathing technique taught by Li Changzhou.

Huang Jin glanced at Li Changzhou and smiled in favor. He ordered the eunuch to let Li Changzhou in just now.

Li Changzhou didn't speak. According to the procedure, he had another long breath.

With an inaudible hiss, Emperor Jiajing let out all his breath and slowly opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty." Li Changzhou saluted.

"The real person doesn't read in the inner court, what do you come here for?" Emperor Jiajing was in a good mood, and Huang Jin wiped his forehead with a warm handkerchief.

"Something happened in the inner court." Li Changzhou only talked about the female officials in the inner court.

Emperor Jiajing looked at Huang Jin: "Let Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen go."

"The servant is going to deliver the decree." Huang Jin handed the handkerchief to the maid, stepped back a few steps, and then turned around and left the Nuan Pavilion to give the order.

"Sit." Emperor Jiajing pointed to the tuanpu on the opposite side.

When Li Changzhou sat down, he said: "The Moon Palace is indeed a heavenly palace. I am on the Moon Palace, and I am diligent all the time. I have breathed out in the palace for half an hour, but there is no movement."

"Your Majesty will have some weak effects after eating." Li Changzhou said with a smile.

Emperor Jiajing pondered for a while, and said to himself: "Before I came back from the Moon Palace, I ate a little bit, and I did have a faint enthusiasm when I performed the exercises."

It may be true, or it may be false, ordinary people sometimes have a sudden fever in their stomachs.

"Your Majesty is so diligent and talented, becoming an immortal is just around the corner."

"I still need real people to help me."

"I already have some ideas about cultivating the Tao."

Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed, but seeing Li Changzhou's pensive expression, he held his breath and said, "The real man has something to say, what's the problem?"

There was no self-confidence and composure in his voice. This involved the immortality he was most concerned about, and it was also a matter of Taoism. Even the emperor's heart was disturbed.

"Then I'll just say it straight," Li Changzhou paused, "Does Your Majesty know why I can't practice Taoism?"

Emperor Jiajing didn't speak.

Li Changzhou continued: "Your Majesty's dragon veins are added to his body, and all laws cannot be invaded. A single imperial decree can turn a monk into an ordinary person."

"I've noticed it too."

"If your majesty wants to practice Taoism, the only way to get rid of the dragon veins."

"Are you asking me to abdicate the throne?"

"Your Majesty has seen any of the royal family's children enter Taoism?"

Emperor Jiajing frowned: "I want this country and immortality, can a real person find a way?"

"There is a way to separate the dragon's veins from His Majesty, but we have no idea how to do it," Li Changzhou said.

This is nonsense.

Taoist priests with a little knowledge know this, but they just don't know how to do it.

But Emperor Jiajing heard this statement for the first time.

Taoist priests who lived in the feudal dynasty and were suppressed by dragon veins, how dare they say in front of Emperor Jiajing, "Your Majesty, you have to learn Taoism.

Forget it, a reckless ascetic might just open his mouth.

Then Emperor Jiajing would continue to ask, how to separate the dragon's veins, and how to be an emperor while practicing Taoism.

Can't do it?To deceive the emperor, to destroy the nine clans, no, this is the Ming Dynasty, to destroy the ten clans.

Li Changzhou is not afraid.

Summoning the wind and dancing the snow, soaring the clouds and flying to the moon, catching fire to become a dragon, killing evil dragons, breathing and breathing, these seemingly useless actions have firmly gained the trust of Emperor Jiajing.

What's more, Emperor Jiajing had nothing to do with him.

At worst, pat your butt, "teleport" and leave. If you want to be handsome, you can also recite a poem by Du Fu before leaving-the emperor can't get on the boat, and he claims that his minister is the wine fairy.

Although he rarely drinks.

After chatting for a while, Li Changzhou bid farewell and left, and continued to go back to the inner court to read books. He is running out of time now, so it's fine if he talks to Yang Qinglan, and he doesn't care about reading this book.

After he left, Emperor Jiajing was about to continue breathing, when he suddenly remembered that he passed some food.

While eating, a eunuch walked up to Huang Jin, who was serving, and whispered a few words.

Before changing to today, Emperor Jiajing couldn't hear what they said clearly, but today he could hear a little vaguely.

He took a sip of the ganoderma lucidum paste, glanced at the distance between himself and Huang Jin, and began to think about what Li Changzhou said about the dragon veins.

Jiangshan must have him.

What is the meaning of immortality without Jiangshan?
What Jiangshan represents is not Jiangshan, but status and power. He wants no one above him, no so-called sky falling, he is the sky.

It can't be like this, what's the point of being immortal.

But only Jiangshan can't live forever, and he can't accept it either!
I only hope that Li Changzhou can think of a way to have both fish and bear's paw.

Over there, after hearing the report, Huang Jin walked up to Emperor Jiajing, brought him some dishes from a distance, and said, "Master, Master Shao and Master Tao are here."

"Is the matter resolved?"

"Yes." Huang Jin hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Many people died in the harem, including Empress Dowager Zhang, Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Chang, Concubine Kang, Concubine He, and Concubine Li Jing, and more than 300 eunuchs Ladies, some cats, dogs and birds."

Emperor Jiajing stopped his chopsticks: "Xuemei (cat) and Shimao (cat)——"

"The two little masters are fine."

Emperor Jiajing put down his chopsticks, rinsed his mouth, wiped his mouth, and leaned back: "Let Shao Yuanjie and the others come in."

When Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen walked into the Nuan Pavilion, everything had been cleaned up, and nearly a hundred dishes, each with only a few mouthfuls, had been removed.

"Your Majesty, the evil spirit has been exterminated by Master Tao." Shao Yuanjie cupped his hands and said.

"The real person really has supernatural powers!" Emperor Jiajing was happy, but he didn't dare to go there because there was something evil in the harem.

This matter was indeed resolved by Tao Zhongwen. Shao Yuanjie's health had long since failed, and he deserved to die in 1539.

He intended Tao Zhongwen to take his place in Emperor Jiajing's heart.

In the harem just now, he lent Tao Zhongwen the power of the dragon veins so that he could do divination in the palace, found the body of the zombie fungus, and killed it directly.

Huang Jin sent eunuchs and maids to check the situation in the harem to confirm whether the evil spirits had really been exterminated.

Emperor Jiajing no longer cared about this matter. After pondering for a while, he told Shao Yuanjie and Tao Zhongwen what Li Changzhou said about the dragon veins, and asked them for their opinions.

The two looked at each other.

"Your Majesty," Shao Yuanjie bent down, "Pindao has something to tell His Majesty!"

"Really, please tell me."

"Your Majesty's inability to practice Taoism is indeed because of the dragon's veins, but the dragon's veins are also the key to becoming an immortal!"

Emperor Jiajing looked at him and asked slowly: "The key to becoming a fairy?"

"Yes! If you want to become an immortal, you must have dragon veins!" Shao Yuanjie said anxiously, "The poor Taoist has been checking Li Changzhou's identity for the past few days. It is impossible for such a young ascetic who is not inferior to me in mana Without a provenance, the successor of the Eastern Prince is simply a fake!"

"fake?"

"Fake, Pindao checked."

"Since it's fake, who is he?"

Shao Yuanjie said: "The world is so big, there are only a few people who can have such magic power.

"Lanling is lustful with a smile, Wu Chengen went to the Western Paradise to seek Taoism, the Goddess of Gushe is a woman, Li Shizhen's medical skills are excellent, but his mana is not as good, and he is working in the Imperial Hospital, so it cannot be him.

"In addition, there are some masters of the evil sect of the evil sect, but there are such methods among them, only the emperor and queen of the gods, and these two happen to be husband and wife!"

"Emperor and Queen of Heaven." Emperor Jiajing narrowed his eyes slightly.

Outside the capital, the demon sects and evil ways ambushed everywhere looked at the capital at this time. A golden dragon vein hovered over the Forbidden City. Under the vast dragon energy, they couldn't even breathe, let alone their strength.

"Just now Tao Zhenren did the divination, and the hexagrams showed that those two people are indeed the Heavenly Emperor and Empress of the God Sect."

Emperor Jiajing looked at Tao Zhongwen.

Tao Zhongwen is different from Shao Yuanjie, he doesn't like to talk very much, he just hits the head of Jishou.

"Your Majesty!" Shao Yuanjie shouted, "Those two people are only one step away from becoming immortals, and they are here to seize the dragon's veins!"

Emperor Jiajing remembered that Li Changzhou had indeed said that he was still one step away from becoming an immortal.
