Fu Shifeng

Chapter 346 Mountains and rivers are altars

Speaking of this matter, Afu raised her eyes and looked at the man and woman behind Master Wen. Jiang Chuliu and Yan Niang were very understanding and bowed out.

In fact, Afu already recognized Jiang Chuliu. She had seen this person in the dark when she was secretly investigating the heirs of the deposed emperor in Jiangnan. However, during the First World War in Wuxian County, Jiang Chuliu disappeared and could not be found anywhere, making it an unsolved case.

Now it seems that Jiang Chuliu was taken away by Master Wen, and judging from his steady steps and upright energy, it seems that he has accomplished internal cultivation and has a good foundation. It must be the result of Master Wen's careful training.

As a veteran of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Zhang Su was familiar with the secrets of the royal family. He took Jiang Chuliu in, which shows that his background is credible and he should be the heir of the deposed emperor.

And hearing that Master also took this person in and trained him, if it had been in the past, Afu would have become suspicious.

"Earlier you sent news that Kang Yaluo was immortal. What happened?" Changqing asked quickly.

"I can't kill him even if I cut him into dozens of pieces, but he can be restored to his original state in a blink of an eye." Afu looked at Master Wen with a smile, with a subtle expression.

"It should be based on the Taotie evil blood and reenact the method of transubstantiation." Master Wen sighed.

"Looking at you like this, you already know the identity of the person behind this matter?" The smile on Afu's face disappeared, her eyes became colder, and she glanced at Master Wen, as if inspecting an animal waiting to be slaughtered.

"The Huaiqing lineage, to be precise, is the Kong side." Master Wen said.

"Is he from Fu Shifeng?" Changqing reacted immediately, slightly shocked: "Kang Yaluo was also cultivated by Fu Shifeng?"

Afu looked at Changqing: "What's so strange about this kind of thing? Didn't Daxiazi, who is sitting in front of me now, also be cultivated by Fu Shifeng?"

Changqing remained silent and heard the master's argument: "The two are not the same. I suspect that Kang Yaluo didn't know much about his background and situation..."

Halfway through her words, Afu sneered: "I don't know whose origin has been concealed for decades."

Changqing rubbed his brow helplessly. Now he is no longer that ignorant junior and has his own independent opinions.

As thought in the past, Fu Shifeng's side of causing trouble for the world will emerge sooner or later. In the past, Master Wen was responsible for correcting the trend and presiding over the situation. Even Kong Yifang did not dare to go too far. Now that he heard that the master's martial arts had been exhausted and Cheng Sanwu was out of control, Kong Yicong immediately provoked Youzhou to rebel, and his intentions were not without evil.

"I heard that the Huaiqing lineage is in charge of property in Fu Shifeng. The ancestor was Mrs. Qing of Bajun in the Qin Dynasty." Changqing said in a deep voice: "As a descendant of Kong Fangfang, why did he cultivate Kang Yaluo? Do you want to? As a businessman, do you control the rise and fall of the world?"

"How can a mere businessman succeed?" Master Wen shook his head.

"Kong Fangfang is not a human being." Afu said: "He is an alien from heaven. During the Han Dynasty, the Heavenly Gate was opened in Ba County. He came to the world with a bolide and was adopted by the Huaiqing lineage. As a result, he occupied the magpie's nest. , secretly controlled the Huaiqing lineage and penetrated into Fu Shifeng."

This statement attracted the two people across from him to look at each other. Master Wen asked, "Although I suspected Kong Yifang in the past, I didn't know he had such an identity. How did you know?"

Afu looked proud: "That's what Cheng Sanwu told me."

"How long have you been meeting? Where are you? When did it happen?" Changqing stood up and asked urgently.

"I went to the Western Regions earlier, and I met An Quti at the Tianchi Lake in the Tianshan Mountains! Don't tell anyone else." Afu briefly described the situation.

Changqing sat down slowly, with thoughts in his mind. Master Wen didn't seem too shocked, and said calmly: "Cheng Sanwu has many Taiyi Orders in his body, and he can know everything in Jiuzhou, ancient and modern. Even if he is an alien from heaven, as long as he is in the world, , Cheng Sanwu can sense its existence and past actions."

"You also had the Five Orders of Taiyi, but I don't think you were able to see through the origins of Kong Fang." Afu said sarcastically: "And if you calculate carefully, Kong Fang has been hiding in Fu Shifeng for at least eight hundred years. , so many of you senior experts are so stupidly kept in the dark?"

Wen Master said: "I am also a junior in Fu Shifeng, and I don't know much about some past events. But Fu Shifeng also encountered foreign enemies in the past. About two hundred years ago, Yan Fengjun appointed Fengxing's master, Elder Daiyu, and returned Mr. Hong Ya of the previous generation was killed and robbed. Now it seems that Kong Fang is the one behind the scenes."

"Two hundred years ago? That's it." Afu calculated the time: "The second time I suffered a serious injury was about that time."

Master Wen looked at Chang Qing and saw that he was sitting still, with his eyebrows lowered and his eyes lowered, as if he was looking inside behind a curtain. However, the aura around him was extremely mysterious, and little talismans and seals could be faintly seen floating in and out.

Afu also looked at him with approval. They were both at the innate realm, but each person's testimony was completely different. In terms of physical strength, innate warriors are naturally far superior to people in Buddhism and Taoism. However, when it comes to the use of energy and perception, those who practice medicine often have more supernatural powers.

What Chang Qing is most proficient in is the power of induction. Through the interaction between the internal and external qi of the human body, he can sense the changes in the world. Jiao Qi Gua is much more accurate and can even provide insight into the fate of heaven and earth.

In Afu's long experience, she has seen very few people who are truly good at fortune-telling. Most of them are just charlatans who pretend to be gods and ghosts to make ends meet. This is the same everywhere.

But if they are very proficient in divination and calculation, and even enough to observe future changes in the world, such people will put themselves into a dilemma, that is, they feel as if their fortune in the world is locked.

If you try to make changes, you will either hit your head against the iron wall of fate, or the future will indeed change because of your intervention, which in turn will shake the foundation of your predictions.

A long time ago, Afu met a wandering fortune teller in the West. He was able to predict his own death, but did not resist at all. In the end, he was tied to a stake and burned alive by the crazy believers in a grand manner.

At that time, Afu was far less advanced and experienced than she is now, and she felt that the fortune teller was stupid and naive. But after I saw more and truly entered the innate realm, I realized that every move I made was indeed affected by the luck of the world, and I did not have the final say in everything.

For some reason, Afu feels that today's Chang Qing is somewhat similar to Cheng Sanwu, except that one of them is still toddling through the secrets of the world for the first time, while the other has gone too far, and the end is getting closer and closer. The more obvious it becomes, the fewer prospects there are to choose from.

Thinking of this, Afu glanced at Master Wen again, always feeling that the two of them would be where they are today, all because of this poor Confucian scholar.

"strangeness."

Changqing blinked and pulled away from the mysterious state of concentration: "I can't sense Kong Fang."

"He's not necessarily nearby. You won't be able to sense it sitting here." Afu said with a smile.

"That's not the case." Changqing trusted Afu very much and made it clear that he had great cultivation skills now: "Now I can sense all the ghosts and gods in the mountains and rivers. They are like my eyes and ears, helping me find Kong Yifang, but they are actually Nothing.”

"Can you still do such a thing?" Afu glanced at Wen Fuzi. Although she didn't know much about dragon energy, she also knew that Changqing had mastered the method of sensing dragon energy, and there was no need to use Tai Yi Ling. Changqing's expression was complicated: "Kong Fangfang has unpredictable abilities."

"Of course people who can instigate war in the world will not be easily discovered." Afu sneered and looked at Master Wen: "I just lamented that you Fu Shifeng said you were going to eradicate the evil of gluttony in this world, but now it seems that... Could it be that you are the source of the trouble?"

Master Wen was calm in the face of this accusation: "Fu Shifeng will be annihilated in the world together with the Taotie disaster. This is a decision I have made long ago. As for someone who causes trouble and causes trouble, then go and quell the trouble and eradicate it." The source of the disaster has nothing to do with Fu Shifeng himself."

"You did it all." Afu finally understood what Cheng Sanwu was thinking.

"I mentioned An Quti just now. Isn't he already dead?" Chang Qing asked.

Afu picked up the brush, dipped it lightly in ink, and wrote lightly on the white paper. At the same time, he said: "An Quti was only physically destroyed by Cheng Sanwu back then. His soul tried to take it away but failed. Instead, he was trapped by him for many years. Wait until I arrive. At Tianchi, An Quti borrowed his corpse to revive his soul, and was subdued by Cheng Sanwu... Well, he probably looks like this."

Changqing took over Anquti's appearance. He was a thin Hu man, completely different from what he had seen in the past.

"With what Cheng Sanwu can do now, it seems that there is no need to deliberately resurrect An Quti. He must have some conspiracy." Changqing looked at Master Wen.

"I had a fight with An Qu before." Master Wen explained: "At that time, he sneaked into the Pingzhi Cave in Guyang and tried to take it for himself. I used the method of shrinking the land to rush to stop him in time. This man has extremely high attainments in magic. , looking at the world, almost no one can compare to it, but it was suppressed by several percent due to the ban on Kowloon."

"It's rare for someone to be evaluated like this by you." Afu said bluntly: "The barrier he set up in the Western Region back then, I'm afraid you Fu Shifeng couldn't do it, right?"

"The barrier set up by An Quti was not all his own creation, but followed the example of the Kowloon ban." Changqing's realm has been greatly improved now, and he has a deeper understanding of the creation of heaven and earth.

Master Wen pondered for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and muttered in a low voice: "I see..."

Seeing that the other party refused to speak openly, Afu simply said: "If we continue to keep the secret now, the world will fall apart, and others will not be able to help even if they want to."

"No need." Master Wen sighed: "The situation has been decided now, and there is no chance to reverse it."

"Is it true that we really want to watch Cheng Sanwu restart the prehistoric era?" Afu is not the kind of person who will take the initiative to save the people in the world. If the situation gets out of hand, she will definitely run away.

Wen Master said: "No matter how powerful Cheng Sanwu is, he cannot reverse the creation of heaven and earth. Even if the Nine Taiyi Orders are completely gathered and the order of mountains and rivers can be re-established, it is nothing more than a slight repair under the established pattern. .”

Chang Qing said in a deep voice: "Cheng Sanwu took away a batch of star marrow earlier, which must be related to his plan... I understand."

"What do you understand?" Afu didn't react for a moment.

"Star marrow can connect the heavens. When An Quti planned to seize the star marrow and stayed in Tianchi for a long time, it was because the two realms intersected and the weather was different." Chang Qing explained: "Cheng Sanwu resurrected An Qu. Mention, I have a lot of star essence in my hand, if the mountains and rivers of Kyushu are used as a altar..."

Changqing did not dare to say any more. This situation was far beyond his ability. Even an innate expert was so insignificant in the face of such a catastrophe.

Afu looked at the gloomy faces of the two people opposite, but she didn't show any fear. She stood up and said, "It turns out that the sky is really going to fall. Let's pack our things quickly and go back to our homes."

Changqing couldn't laugh and kept silent. She sensed Jiang Chuliu coming outside the courtyard and seemed to have something to report. He opened a corner of the barrier and said, "What's the matter?"

"The new Minister of Household Affairs, Su Wangting, has arrived with a batch of food and salary, and wants to see His Majesty."

Changqing immediately became energetic when he heard the identity of the visitor: "Invite him quickly."

"If you have something to talk about, I won't disturb you." Master Wen stood up and left.

A moment later, Su Wangting, dressed in a crimson official robe, came quickly. When he saw Changqing, he was about to bow down, but was hurriedly helped up by the other party.

"Brother Fu, what are you doing?!" Chang Qing felt a sense of inexplicable sadness. All the friendships in the past had turned into this kind of courtesy.

Fortunately, Afu was there to help: "If you really kowtow, the little baby will probably cry silently when he goes back to bed."

Su Wangting was startled when he heard this and had to stand up with a smile.

"It's better like this." Chang Qing asked the two of them to sit down: "I wonder how we could have been so particular when we left the Western Regions? But now..."

Talking about the past, everyone couldn't help but think of Cheng Sanwu. The scene fell into silence. Changqing realized that he was speechless. He looked at Su Wangting and looked at his crimson robe: "Brother Fu has been promoted? Congratulations!"

"I was ordered to escort a batch of money and food to Guanzhong. I was promoted by Prime Minister Lu as soon as I arrived in Chang'an." Su Wangting handed over his hand: "Prime Minister Lu knew that the war in Tongguan was fierce, so he ordered me to bring a batch of money, silk, cattle and sheep to reward the soldiers."

"Prime Minister Lu asked Fu's brother to take care of this matter. Naturally, I feel relieved." Changqing nodded slightly. He couldn't help but think that Su Wangting was indeed suitable for the position of Prime Minister. Is Lu Yan starting to arrange a successor?

"There is one more thing that I must report in person." Su Wangting looked around.

"There is a barrier protecting this place, so the sound cannot be transmitted out." Chang Qing reminded again: "And don't say anything about 'return'. The three of us get along in private and treat it as friends."

"Yes." Su Wangting took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Changqing. At the same time, he said: "Before I left Jiangnan, I went to Wulingzhuang to visit Mrs. He and learned that Liu Niang had given birth to a son. Now the mother and son are safe. , this is the old lady’s personal letter.”

Changqing knew this and couldn't help but become nervous. He immediately opened it and read it. After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mrs. He has heard about His Majesty's ascension to the throne, but it has not been spread outside, and not many people in Wulingzhuang know about it." Su Wangting said cautiously: "For the sake of safety, Mrs. He temporarily hid the mother and son, and planned to end the war. Then send it to Chang'an."
