Chapter 215

At this time, Li Shenhou was roasting this rabbit in the woods next to the official road leading to the capital.

Qi Zhu said, "I wonder if your boy has met the master?"

Li Shenhou thought for a while, "I guess I have met him."

"Master arranged for you and me to go to Kyoto this time. You and I must have a clear division of labor." Qi Zhu said, "I will leave all the planning and all the hands-on work to you, okay?"

Li Shenhou was overjoyed, "It should be so."

"There is something strange in the upper echelons of the country. If it hadn't been for the obstruction by Guan Mi'er, perhaps a large number of people from the Jingyao Division would have gone to Liangcheng to arrest Li Jie. But now it is said that there is only one patrol inspector Yan Weishi who is halfway there at the moment and is here to investigate the matter." Qi Zhu said.

Li Shenhou said angrily, "What does the fall of the immortal Buddha have to do with our human race and the dynasty? Jing Yaosi's butt is too crooked."

"Most of the main force of the Jingyao Division are the disciples of the Immortal Buddha's outer sect. This was also one of the agreements between Master and the Immortal Buddha Kingdom when the Witch God Dynasty was overthrown." Qi Zhu said.

"Boss, I just can't figure out why the reincarnations of immortals and Buddhas have to worship the outer gate. What a coincidence that there are three in Liangcheng?" Li Shenhou turned the rabbit in his hand and said to Qi Zhu.

"There are also fights in the Immortal Court Buddha Kingdom. The reincarnation of the immortal Buddha may be someone's ancestor. If grandson Gray becomes the ancestor's master, how will the immortal Buddha deal with it when he awakens?" Qi Zhu laughed, this smile Somewhat ironically, "The good-tempered immortals and Buddhas will probably laugh out loud, but what about the irritable ones? So worshiping the reincarnated body through the outer gate is the best way."

"After all, the Immortal Court will not care about the loss of a few outer sects. Besides, even if something happens to the reincarnation of the outer sect, the immortals and Buddhas will not blame it. After all, it is an outer sect. It is understandable that it cannot be fully protected. And reincarnation is not a rare thing. In Liangjie Mountain, any immortal Buddha would be embarrassed to go out without dozens of reincarnations, right?"

"There are too many twists and turns. Old Li, my head hurts. I don't want to think about it anymore." Li Shenhou said, "Boss, what are we going to do next?"

"Catch Yan Weishi, kill him and startle a snake."

Li Shenhou beamed, "Brother, I'm familiar with kidnapping. I've done a lot of business in Liangjieshan, Mr. Li."

"You, Lai Hao, are also the economic envoy of our Renzong. How can you be so vulgar? You are like a mountain king who fell into trouble and turned into a bandit. How can we call you kidnapped? Please, please, please cooperate with our Renzong's investigation." Qi Zhu said , "We are all scholars, we must know how to advance and retreat, and observe etiquette, right?"

"Boss, I am Wufu."

"Warriors don't study? Why did our Renzong produce such an unlearned and unskilled economic envoy?" Qi Zhu said.

"Old Li, I fall asleep when I see books. I have no chance of studying in this life." Li Shenhou laughed loudly, "How can I be as fast as my fists when I am full of knowledge? It's not the same as making people bloom with peach blossoms."

"Fool."

"It's good to be reckless. If you go over recklessly, the sea and the sky will be vast. If you don't go over recklessly, you will end up with a bloody head and stay where you are. If you don't act recklessly, how can you know the happiness of going straight." Li Shenhou said.

"Hey, when did you, a martial artist, say such a profound truth?" Qi Zhu scolded with a smile.

"Master said, the one who is close to the ink is black. When I am with a bunch of scholars like you, I, Lao Li, also have some ink, right?"

"It makes sense, but it's not right. Shouldn't it be the person who is close to Zhu who is red?" Qi Zhu said.

Li Shenhou said thiefly, "A scholar is full of bad intentions. He plots about this and that all day long. How can he not have a dark heart?"

"Do you dare to say this to Master?"

"Master has surpassed scholars." Li Shenhou said, picking up the roasted rabbit, tearing off a rabbit leg and stuffing it into his mouth.

"This flattery makes me speechless." Qi Zhu said, "Give me a leg up."

Hearing that Li Jie was not satisfied with being called a shemale, Mr. Liu hesitated to speak. The master smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, there is no need to force it."

Li Jie was confused at this time. From the moment he entered his sea of ​​consciousness to the moment he came out, he was like a puppet on strings. However, the change in attitude between Master and Mr. Liu was a bit unbelievable. What exactly changed Master's attitude.

"You are willing to join my family." The master looked into Li Jie's eyes and said, "If you join my family, no one in this world will care about your origin. I will bear all the consequences."

Li Jie's heart skipped a beat. Master still found something unusual. Has his identity as a time traveler been exposed?Otherwise, why do you keep emphasizing your origin?But judging from Master's words and actions, good intentions are still greater than bad intentions.

While he was hesitating, Mr. Liu's voice rang in Li Jie's ears, "Hurry up and agree, don't miss this great opportunity and good fortune."

Li Jie turned around and saw Mr. Liu looking at him with a smile. He thought of the great fortune that Qi Zhu had told him when he was leaving. Could it be that becoming a disciple of the Master is a great fortune?Everything is unclear, so it's better to be cautious.

Mr. Liu looked anxious and said to Li Jie, "People in the world who want to join the Master are like crucian carp crossing the river. Why are you so ignorant?"

"Once a teacher, always a father. I still need to ask my father's opinion on this kind of matter." Li Jie suddenly thought of a good excuse. Li Shenhou was not here at the moment, and it would be a day if he could delay it. Once the situation is clarified by then, it won’t be too late to think about it again.

The Master and Mr. Liu looked at each other in astonishment, and then smiled at each other, "In this way, I will enlighten you tomorrow. Your soul has been consumed too much and you still need to take a good rest. I have temporarily sealed the demonic nature in your sea of ​​consciousness. , lest you lose control of yourself and become a demon again."

Li Jie looked confused, as if he hadn't agreed yet. What had he missed?Just as he was about to speak, he saw the Master gently wave his hand and say "Go". The scenery changed before his eyes, and he appeared outside the small courtyard. In front of him was the tree root bridge, and behind him was the small courtyard door. Li Jie was about to turn around and push the small courtyard door open. When I went to the courtyard gate to ask what the master meant, I found that I couldn't reach the courtyard gate no matter what. It seemed that I was so close yet so far away.

In desperation, Li Jie had no choice but to turn around. When he looked up, he saw that the sky outside was a little dark. He had only been in the small courtyard for half an hour, and it was already dusk when he came out.Could this be the legendary difference in the flow of time?The small courtyard is a world of its own. Master, what level of master is this?

However, in his previous life, as an old bookworm who had been reading novels since the rise of Internet literature, he still had some basic judgments about the master. According to the laws of Internet literature, such people who talk about immortals and Buddhas and shut up about demons and gods are generally not top bosses, but also stand-up people. In a very high position, even if the script is not right, the start is bloody and almost fatal, but when you meet a boss in Novice Village who is not afraid of immortals, Buddhas, demons and gods, it can be regarded as a normal continuation, especially that A saying that no one in the world has spoken about is very consistent with the temperament of a big boss, but I just don’t know if it is bragging. Even if it is bragging, how can I prove it?
Li Jie calmed down. Since the master didn't want to ask questions by himself, it was better not to ask for trouble. Thinking of this, Li Jie felt a little sleepy. He hadn't had any water in the day, and there was a sound in his belly. He was also a little hungry.

After walking across the tree root bridge, he was about to go back to the room to find someone to ask where there was food. The peach blossom forest in front of him made Li Jie have a hard time. He was brought in. How to go back? Li Jie looked back. Glancing at the small courtyard on the island in the middle of the lake, I found that the tree root bridge had retracted into the water.While hesitating, a gust of breeze blew by, and a boy came out from behind the tree. It was the boy who brought him here.

"Congratulations, young man." The young man saluted Li Jie and said with a smile. "After tomorrow, I will be Master's disciple."

"I haven't agreed yet." Li Jie said in his heart, but he did not refute, and quickly turned sideways to give up the gift. The master is unfathomable, and the background of this servant must not be simple. Thinking about it, when he first started, he thought that this young boy was Servant, how could a rookie like me have grown to this extent? There is a seventh-rank official in front of the Prime Minister's door. "I was in a hurry just now. I haven't asked my name yet."

"My name is Taoyao, Taozhiyaoyao, Taoyao of Ye Zhenzhen. I will bring the dinner to the young man's room. If the young man needs anything, just blow this whistle and I will help him immediately. I know." Taoyao put a whistle carved from a tree root into Li Jie's hand. "With this whistle, Xiao Langjun will be able to pass through the formation without any obstruction."

"Taoyao." Li Jie muttered to himself, stroking the whistle with his hand, "Thank you."

Li Jie felt that if he was not a fool, he would be able to guess the identities of Taoyao and Mr. Liu. Willow and Peach, are they monsters?He suddenly felt that the kind-hearted Mr. Liu and the fair-faced Tao Yao were also strange.

"Young Master, please follow me back. You have to cleanse yourself and take a bath at night. Master must not be careless in accepting disciples." Tao Yao took out a red lantern from nowhere and led the way. Her voice sounded far and near. , "I just don't know if you are considered a closed disciple. The wind is going to blow. Don't run around in the cold weather."

Li Jie was so excited that he quickly followed.

In the small courtyard, Mr. Liu looked at the master, "What secrets does this boy have that make you want to become a disciple?"

The master remained silent, walked to the edge of the pavilion, and stared at the water in front of him in trance.

"Can't you tell me?" Mr. Liu asked a little surprised. The master talked to him about everything, but he kept silent about the child. So the secret about the child is not just a prophecy. Simple.

After a long while, the master sighed, "Maybe the prophecy is not wrong, but we have misunderstood it?"

Mr. Liu waved his hand to put away the chess pieces on the chessboard, "It's possible, but it's about your life and death, so you can't take any risks."

"Who is immortal, immortals and Buddhas are immortal? Demons and gods are immortal? Eternal existence will eventually be tortured forever. Immortality may be a punishment in itself. If immortals and Buddhas do not die, they must shoulder the responsibilities given by heaven. If demons and gods do not die, they must obey Under the control of Taiyi, you are afraid of losing whatever you gain." The master sighed, "To be a human being, you should be happy. When you are born in the world, the cause and effect will be dispersed after death. You can live a life of freedom and have no worries after death. That is the great freedom. When I come, heaven and earth celebrate, and when I leave, there is a clear breeze and bright moon.”

"Master, you asked Xiao Qi Zi and Monkey to investigate what happened 15 years ago. Did you find any problems?" Mr. Liu cleaned up the chessboard and took out a set of drinking utensils to play with. "Did the Witch God Cult fall 15 years ago? The Witch God Dynasty was overthrown, and the Great Witch Sacrifice was martyred. Is there a hidden reason? Is it related to this child? "

"Fifteen years ago, the envoys from the Immortal Court and the Buddhist Kingdom were looking for me, saying that the last witch god dynasty, the witch god witch priest, wanted to do something against heaven. He sacrificed millions of human beings and summoned unknown beings to change the witch god dynasty against heaven. They hope that I will join forces with them to completely overthrow the Witch God dynasty. It should be noted that the Witch God sect has criticized us for its tradition of human sacrifice to the Witch God. This method is too harmful to the peace of the world. It was originally a helpless method for our human race during the ignorant period. After all, the Witch God himself They are the demon gods. Before the saints became enlightened, the wizard gods needed the flesh and blood of living beings to maintain their strength. Our human race needed to sacrifice to the wizard gods to gain protection. After the saints became enlightened, the wizard gods transformed into the three tribes of elves and monsters. However, tens of thousands of years of tradition and some wizard gods still have this preference. , this method has been retained for some reasons." The master said, "You know these past events. The Great Witch Sacrifice requires millions of human beings to be sacrificed. I can't tolerate my refusal. Tens of thousands of human beings have been sacrificed in the long history. I can’t bet on what kind of communication exists with millions of people, I can’t bet, and I don’t dare to bet.”

"At that time, there was a riot in the seal, and I couldn't get away. But I heard later that the Immortal Court had already forced the Great Witch Festival to death with you and the Buddha Kingdom. Since then, there has been no Witch God in the world. The wizards who were loyal to the Witch God Dynasty took refuge in the Monster Clan and established the Ten Thousand Monsters. Teaching becomes a cancer.”

"Actually, when we entered the Altar of the Witch God, the sacrifices had already begun. The Witch God Cult had changed things and made the four altars real and fake. If some wizards hadn't rebelled and destroyed the sacrificial formation, the sacrifice might have been successful. "The master seemed to be nostalgic and said, "I found this child in the center of the altar. When I saw that he was a human-monster, I thought of that hexagram and hesitated for a long time until Qi Zhu told me that the siege of the Immortal Courtyard had begun. During the Great Witch Festival, I asked Qi Zhu to return with the children first, but when I arrived at the scene, the Great Witch Festival had already burned himself to death."

"Qi Zhu came back and said that more than one-third of the million people in Kyoto were killed or injured at that time. Even if someone was involved in the Great Witch Festival to protect him, such a huge cause and effect cannot be borne. It makes sense for the Witch God to seek refuge with the demon clan."

"The first strange thing happened at this time. The great shaman sacrificed himself and the human scroll disappeared." The master said, "I thought that the immortal court had already grabbed the human scroll, but the leading master of the immortal court grabbed it. Before I took action, I swore an oath of heaven to show that the human scroll was not in the hands of Immortal Court. In order to win my trust, the masters of Immortal Court present successively swore an oath of heaven. Most of these people are now high-level officials of Immortal Court."

"It's strange. The oath of heaven, it can't be faked. No one is tampering with the oath, right?" Mr. Liu said, "The Heavenly Mirror, the Earthly Book, the Human Scroll, and the three tools of the saint's enlightenment, no matter how big the cause and effect, must be seized." In hand."

"They are not worthy and dare not play with words with a scholar." The master said, "The second strange thing is that the immortal masters retreated very quickly. It is not in line with their usual style at all. With their temperament, even if I participate It’s impossible to turn around and leave without getting any benefit at all.”

"With the style of Immortal Court, it is not an exaggeration to search for resources to provide for oneself, but the sky is three feet high. It is very strange."

"I have inquired in many ways to no avail. It was not until something happened to Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng, and someone from the imperial court impatiently took action to take away the child, that I realized that maybe Li Jie was the missing person who disappeared in Xianting 15 years ago. A breach of retreat. Someone must know something."

"What did you see from this child today?" Mr. Liu asked, "It's been a long time since I've seen you lose your sense of proportion. It must be something extraordinary."

"Renjuan." Master uttered these two words, and Mr. Liu's hand that was warming the wine couldn't help but pause.

"Are you serious?" Mr. Liu asked.

"If it weren't for the power of a saint, how could there be such a strange existence as a harem?"

"I see, it's a big revelation today." Mr. Liu handed the wife a glass of wine, then raised the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

The master raised his wine glass and said to Mr. Liu, "I am going to send a message to Qi Zhu and Monkey. If there is really some evil trick and the mastermind behind it, I will let them know that I think someone's sword is as fast as it used to be. Living in rivers and lakes but far away from temples, you really think that I don’t care about worldly affairs.”

"To kill?"

"Swing one sword to prevent thousands of swords from coming. The teachings of the sage are the most simple and the most profound."

The wind blew through the willow branches, bringing with it the muddy smell from the bottom of the lake. Mr. Liu looked at Master Si and seemed to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood behind him.

"Killing too much will harm Tianhe after all. If you take another step when the time comes, it will inevitably cause trouble."

"It doesn't matter, just cut the road ahead with one sword."

In a small courtyard not far from the Confucius Mansion, several masked men in black robes faced the direction of the Confucius Mansion, not knowing what they were looking at.

A few drops of mercury-silver liquid broke out from the ground, and gradually condensed into a human form. It was none other than the disappeared steward of the Li Mansion.
