Chapter 469: A Thousand Shots
Hou Shulin didn't know what Nanfeng was thinking, seeing him sneering, he was so frightened, "Shaoxia, you ......"
Nanfeng raised his hand to interrupt Hou Shulin's words, "What is the situation of Buddhism now?"
Hou Shulin replied, "I don't know why, over the years, there have always been monsters and ghosts to various monasteries to make difficult provocations, but they are mostly intimidating and disturbing, destroying temples and killing monks is rare, I once asked my father-in-law about this matter, and my father-in-law was secretive, so he just ignored it." ”
Hou Shulin changed his tone when he said this, and continued, "Demons are rampant, and it stands to reason that Daoists should surrender, but they just stand by and watch, so people in the rivers and lakes are speculating that this matter is related to the Taoist, and some people even speculate that the demon ghost was sent and connived at by the Taoist. ”
"Did the monsters and ghosts fight?" Nanfeng asked again, others didn't know, but he knew it, Big Eyes and the Queen Mother of the West were both drunkards, and the expulsion of monks and nuns was just a pretense, and what the two sides really wanted to do was to find an opportunity to officially start a war.
"Yes," Hou Shulin nodded repeatedly, "although they are all in trouble with monks and nuns, they are not friendly to each other, and there are fights from time to time, and not long ago I saw a zombie and two ghosts besieging a blue-eyed golden eagle that turned into a Taoist. ”
"Did the Taoist who turned into a golden eagle die?" Nanfeng asked, zombies also belong to the Yin Thing, and like the Yin Spirit, they are all under the jurisdiction of the Taiyin Yuanjun, and nothing in the Three Realms is completely outside the Three Realms.
"Dead, miserable dismemberment. Hou Shulin had palpitations.
"Did the golden eagle cast a spell before he died?" Nanfeng asked, there was a different kind of Taoist in the Shangqing Sect, and he wanted to determine whether the blue-eyed golden eagle was just an incarnation of a Taoist or really a Taoist.
"I can't tell if it's a spell or a witch. Hou Shulin shook his head.
"Demon magic can't borrow the aura of heaven and earth, and it doesn't need to pinch the mantra. Nanfeng explained.
Hou Shulin thought for a moment and said, "That Dao man tried to chant a spell before being besieged, but the opponent was too eager to complete it. ”
Listening to Hou Shulin, Nanfeng has a plan in his heart, the blue-eyed golden eagle is likely to grant the Dao book, before the Xuanqing Xuanjing of the Taiqing Sect had awarded the Wolf Demon Tianqingzi, and now the group of Taoists who are inclined to the Queen Mother of the West in the Taiqing Sect have been killed in the previous rebellion, and Tianqizi and others will no longer obey their orders. In order to facilitate their actions, it is likely that the Queen Mother of the West and others have plotted to seize the power of the Shangqing Dynasty, and Yan Feixue's sudden abdication should be related to this matter.
"Shaoxia, are you thirsty?" asked Hou Shulin with concern.
Nanfeng waved his hand, "I don't even have a body, how can I be hungry and thirsty, let me ask you again, which way of immortals are the people outside worshipping now?"
"In the early days, I was mostly worshipping the Sanguan Emperor, and in recent years, I have mostly worshiped the Buddha and Bodhisattva. Hou Shulin replied.
Nanfeng nodded, the Emperor of Sanguan is a god, and he belongs to the faction of the Queen Mother of the West. And his previous heavy blows to Taiqing and Yuqing weakened the prestige of the Daomen and the immortals, but in fact, he indirectly helped the Queen Mother of the West.
But the Queen Mother of the West may not have expected that Buddhism would take the opportunity to flourish and steal the incense they urgently needed, which should be another reason why the aliens appeared in large numbers, invading monasteries and expelling monks and nuns.
"In addition to the Purple Light Pavilion, what other relatively large sects are there in the rivers and lakes right now?" Nanfeng asked again, he was in retreat at this time, and before leaving the customs, he had to have an understanding of the situation outside.
"Luoxia Mountain," Hou Shulin raised his hand and pointed south, "Luoxia Mountain Island Lord Jinyi Angry Dragon doesn't know what kind of creation, and suddenly his cultivation has increased greatly, Luoxia Mountain alone has as many as five Taixuan masters, and there are dozens of Dongyuan Jushan, which have frequently appeared in inland rivers in recent years, and have become the leading boss of martial arts in the south." ”
"What is their relationship with the Liang court?" Nanfeng asked.
Hou Shulin shook his head, "It's not good, but they seem to have a lot of dealings with General Chen, going to salt and selling grain, and each taking their own benefits." ”
The veins are slowly straightened out, Taiyin Yuanjun is an immortal, different from the gods headed by the Queen Mother of the West, most of the immortals are Han people who have ascended to the Tao, and they attach great importance to the bloodline race, they are rejecting foreign races, and Chen Ba is a Han first, and has always been the object of support and help from Taiyin Yuanjun's party, Luoxia Mountain This sect is a descendant of the mermaids, and is active in various waters, and Taiyin Yuanjun is not only in charge of the underworld, but also governs the rivers of the four seas.
"The relationship between Luoxia Mountain and Ziguang Pavilion is definitely not good. Nanfeng said.
"Young Xia Mingrui," Hou Shulin gave a thumbs up to Nanfeng, "These two sects are in the same situation, hostile to each other, and have fought repeatedly. ”
"They're all pawns. Nanfeng said, and seeing that Hou Shulin's face was tired, he said, "You have worked hard all the way, rest for a while, and I will talk to you later." ”
After saying that, he withdrew and retreated, Hou Shulin beat his spirits, got up and walked to the camel, took the food bag on the camel's back, took out the sacrifice, and sprinkled wine to worship.
For so many years, Nanfeng has almost forgotten what food tastes like, but how can fat people and others have the appetite to enjoy it.
After the sacrifice, Hou Shulin lay down and fell asleep, and the camel gnawed on the green grass from the waterhole.
In the next few days, Hou Shulin slept most of the time, dreaming is actually not really asleep, if he dreams all the time, it is the same as not sleeping, so in addition to dreaming, Nanfeng will let him really sleep for a while.
Hou Shulin got two volumes of heavenly books, worried about revealing his wealth, he has been in Taoguang for many years, and he doesn't go out much on weekdays, but he knows about big things, and he knows very little about trivial things, and he doesn't know the whereabouts of the eighth master and Mo Li, and he doesn't know the movements of Jinding Temple, but in addition to chatting, he also said some useful things, according to him, the current Shangqing Zhangjiao Li Feng real people have the surname Kong, and they are very unfriendly to Taiqing Sect, so saying, Nanfeng immediately thought of a person, Kong Yiming, who was rejected by Taiqing Sect, that is, he was knocked down with a bench back then, and later turned enemies into friends, and then turned enemies into enemies because he didn't know what to do。
Speaking of this, I can't help but be a little afraid, fortunately, I didn't ask the old monk to go to Shangqing for help before, otherwise it is likely to cause trouble.
Since it was a conversation, it wasn't just Nanfeng who asked, Hou Shulin replied. Hou Shulin is concerned about three questions, one is what kind of current situation Nanfeng is at this time, the second is whether he has made progress in studying the Book of Heaven, and the third is what he plans to do next.
Hou Shulin also knew that these three questions were very sensitive and should not have been asked, but he couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, in fact, in addition to curiosity, he was more worried, because the earth-shaking changes have taken place outside over the years, and Taixuan is no longer enough to deter the Quartet.
It's inconvenient to ask directly, so I can only knock on the side, only saying that when the south wind goes out to sit on the bed, I am willing to worship Taiqing, saddle before and after the horse, and follow with allegiance.
Seeing through Hou Shulin's careful thinking, Nanfeng was not angry, who is not a little selfish, no matter what, he does not doubt Hou Shulin's loyalty, "I will not take over Taiqing." ”
Hou Shulin was surprised when he heard this, but he didn't ask, but stared at Nanfeng, this is a smart way, if Nanfeng is willing, he will explain the reason to him.
But Nanfeng didn't explain to him the reason why he didn't take over as the head of Taiqing, but casually asked, "What is your greatest wish in life?"
"Be able to follow the young man's ......"
"Don't say it's useless. The south wind interrupted Hou Shulin's words.
"This, this, it's really gone," Hou Shulin sneered, "In the early years, I was looking forward to being able to advance to the mountain, but now I have done it, if I can advance to the cave, it will be even better." ”
"Haha, you're not greedy," Nanfeng said with a smile, "but you still have to be a little ambitious, if you can go to the end of this road, the creation will definitely be higher than Taixuan." ”
Hearing Nanfeng's words, Hou Shulin fell to his knees and kowtowed, Nanfeng's words not only indirectly informed him of his progress in studying the Book of Heaven, but also clearly told him what he could get in the end, Taixuan is the ultimate mortal, higher than Taixuan, at least he is also an earth immortal.
This time, Nanfeng didn't help him, but said casually, "Okay, you should go back too." ”
"For half a month, I will accompany you from here. Hou Shulin said.
"You've run out of dry food, and there's no food here. Nanfeng said.
"Killed the camels. Hou Shulin pointed to the camel ruminating.
"Is it appropriate that it carried you over and you killed it?"
Hou Shulin was afraid of the south wind from the bottom of his heart, and when he saw that he was displeased, he was cold all over his body, and hurriedly kowtowed to admit his mistake.
"Alright, alright," Nanfeng waved his hand, "let's go, let's go back." ”
"I'll go out and buy some dry food and come back. Hou Shulin discussed.
Nanfeng thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"I'll leave right away, and I'll be back in three days. Hou Shulin stood upright, carried the water bladder and left, he had already advanced to the purple qi and could fly through the air, so he had never ridden the camel.
Hou Shulin left at noon, and in the evening, before the sun had completely set, he actually returned.
Hurried, staggering.
"What's going on?" Nanfeng didn't dream, and asked directly, Hou Shulin was sweating profusely, his body was covered with blood, and the wound on his shoulder was still bleeding, and the wound was caused by the claws of some kind of animal, three side by side, and the bones were visible.
"The father-in-law and the others set off ahead of schedule, but they were intercepted by the monsters halfway through, and they fought all the way, and now they have reached a hundred miles away. Hou Shulin raised his hand to wipe his sweat.
"Who else is there besides the real person of the Apocalypse?" Nanfeng's heart shook greatly, and he raised his eyes to look out, but he didn't see any alien breath, nor did he see a human figure, the land could only observe the color in his own jurisdiction, and there were many sand dunes in the desert, and his vision was blocked, and he never saw Tianqizi and others.
"The real people of the Taiqing Sect are here, as well as your friend who made the hammer and Miss Yuan. Hou Shulin lost too much blood and turned pale.
"Is there a coffin?" asked Nanfeng urgently.
"Yes, it's a transparent coffin. Hou Shulin replied.
At this moment, clouds suddenly appeared in the sky, the south wind felt it, looked up, and saw two clouds, one smaller, one larger, and a middle-aged heavenly official standing on the smaller cloud, and on the larger cloud stood two heavenly generals wearing armor.
When he was a hundred zhang above the ground, the larger cloud was hovering, and that day the official came in a hurry, and he spread the scroll ten zhang from the ground, and read out the decree, "The Jade Emperor has a decree, and the south wind of the land of Huangshaling will be transferred to Luoyun Mountain, and he will go to his post immediately without delay." ”
Nanfeng gasped when he heard this, and he was transferred away at this juncture, obviously to kill him.
"Nanfengzi, receive the order and exchange the official seal. The heavenly official urged.
"What if I don't accept the order?" Nanfeng was furious, and while the Heavenly Court sent the Heavenly Commander to deliver the order, it also sent the Thunder Divine General to accompany him, which was undoubtedly to prevent him from leaving the territory.
"Resist disobedience and correct the law on the spot. Tianguan shouted.
"Shaoxia, hold on for a moment. Hou Shulin stood up with his sword and volleyed south.
"I'll pack my things. Nanfeng said angrily at the heavenly official.
"The Jade Emperor has a will, and he will go to his post immediately. "Tianguan naturally knows that the south wind is stalling for time.
"That land, do you really want to resist the decree?" the thunder god in the air cheered.
"How dare I resist the decree, the official seal is below, I'll go get ......"
