On the city gate, Li Shimin and Merton stood in the wind, looking at the pedestrians coming in and out of the city gate, among the crowds coming and going, the pedestrians dressed as Taoist priests were particularly conspicuous. "What's going on, so many Taoist priests have entered Chang'an City recently." A black-clothed merchant Jia who was passing by looked at a large number of Taoist priests entering Chang'an City and asked puzzledly.

"You don't know this, I heard that Yuan Shoucheng is an old immortal immortal and has refined a peerless elixir. Children can strengthen their bodies and grow up vigorously after eating, and the elderly can walk like flying and prolong their lives. An idler said excitedly.

"So, so many Taoist priests have come to witness Yuan Lao's immortal technique?" The black-clothed merchant Jia suddenly realized.

The idle man shook his head strangely and said, "No, these Taoist priests are all here to discuss Dan with Old Immortal Yuan. ”

"Ahh The black-clothed merchant Jia was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that these Taoist priests were all here to trouble Old Immortal Yuan.

The idle man glanced at the black-clothed merchant Jia strangely and said, "What's strange about this, how difficult it is to live forever, if Old Immortal Yuan's way of immortality is correct, wouldn't it prove that the way of immortality of other Dao elders is wrong!" These Dao Masters naturally want to come and discuss with Yuan Lao Immortal and try their skills.

The people around suddenly realized that in fact, among the hundreds of schools of thought, after generation after generation of development, there have already been mountains and mountains, and there are countless schools of thought, and no one is convinced.

Even back then, the Mo family was not divided into three, each of them went their own way, and the Taoist mountains were probably even more.

Li Shimin listened to the discussions under the city wall, looked at the Taoist priests who entered Chang'an City one by one, frowned and asked, "Does the Taoist really have the kind of weapon you said?"

At that time, in the palace, Li Shimin once asked if the Mo family could break the barrier that could not be opened by one husband, and Merton replied that the Mo family did not.

It is true that the Mo family does not have this kind of ink skill, but it is not that the other schools of thought do not have it, and Li Shimin never thought that it was the Taoists who had this peerless weapon.

"It's true!"

Merton, who was standing behind Li Shimin, nodded without hesitation.

Li Shimin frowned slightly and said: "Since this is the case, why don't you see the Taoist playing." I don't believe the Taoists will hide it from me. ”

Although Li Tang adopted Confucianism to govern the country, he believed that he was a descendant of Lao Tzu and enshrined Taoism as the state religion, which can be said to be extremely trusting of Taoism. He didn't believe that Taoism had such a powerful thing, but he hid it from him.

"That's because Taoists probably don't know the value of this thing." Merton couldn't help but laugh.

The weapon that Merton spoke of destroying the pass was, of course, gunpowder, one of China's four great inventions.

Gunpowder is a thing used by Taoist alchemy to fuel combustion, and Taoism has such a treasure, and it is simply the biggest waste to use it in the side door.

Li Shimin couldn't help but take a deep look at the Mo family, the Taoists didn't know that they had such a treasure, and the Mo family actually knew, which couldn't help but make people think deeply.

Merton smiled bitterly: "The kid has no intention of snooping into the secrets of the Taoists, and he can destroy the pass, and it is not an exaggeration to call such a sharp weapon the greatest invention in the world. ”

The doubts in Li Shimin's heart dissipated slightly, and suddenly an exclamation from the city attracted Li Shimin's idea.

"The Immortal Daoist is here!" Under the South City Gate. A citizen of Chang'an City couldn't help but exclaim.

I saw a Taoist priest slowly coming from the south, with a withered face, at least eighty years old on his face, but he was full of black hair, and the other Taoist priests were all child-faced and crane-haired, but the immortal Taoist was just the opposite.

The idle man smiled slightly and said: "This is an immortal Taoist, a Taoist skill is very good, he is nearly eighty years old, but he is still full of black hair. Judging from the following, the Immortal Dao is the person closest to the Immortal Dao, and this time Yuan Lao Immortal has an opponent. ”

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" The Immortal Daoist shouted a trumpet, which immediately caused the people to exclaim.

"The Tao of Immortality is long, can ordinary people pursue the Tao of Eternal Life?" The black-clothed merchant Jia looked at the immortal Daoist and said feverishly.

The immortal Taoist said with a chic bow: "The immortal is really vast and boundless, and the poor Dao is just involving the skin, as for you, as long as you are dedicated to goodness and dedication to the Dao, the Poor Dao will naturally have no reservations and teach each other." ”

"The Immortal Daoist is indeed a master of the Dao, and he will definitely come to visit him another day." The black-clothed merchant Jia said excitedly.

Being able to get the guidance of the immortal Taoist, although immortality is impossible, at least prolonging life is indispensable, how can he not be grateful for such a great favor, the black-clothed merchant couldn't help but think about what gift he would give another day to visit.

"Longevity!" Li Shimin looked at the black-haired Immortal Daoist, and couldn't help but have a flash of heat in his eyes.

Although he was in the prime of life, he didn't have much thought about pursuing immortality, but when he saw the black-haired immortal Taoist, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, that emperor didn't want to live for five hundred years longer.

"Shenxiao Daoist!"

There was a cheer from the crowd, followed by a muffled thunderclap. interrupted Li Shimin's thoughts.

Li Shimin was suddenly startled, and couldn't help but look for prestige, only to see that outside the South City Gate, a Taoist priest wearing a wide robe was slowly coming.

Everywhere I passed, there was a faint sound of thunder.

"The Five Thunder Righteous Law of the Divine Xiao Dao people is so profound in cultivating the Dao." The black-clothed merchant Jia instantly changed his position and looked at the Shenxiao Daoist excitedly.

In this era, thunder can be described as the most magnificent and mysterious thing, and the Shenxiao Dao people who can control the power of heavenly thunder are also sought after by everyone and have a prominent reputation.

The idle man suddenly said proudly: "That's the case, in the Tang Dynasty Taoism, only the Shenxiao Daoist and the Immortal Daoist can be on an equal footing with Yuan Lao Immortal, and the three of them are all famous figures in the Taoist." This time, the Dan Conference was lively. ”

"Brother Shenxiao Dao!"

When the Immortal Daoist saw the Shenxiao Daoist walking slowly, he couldn't help but salute his words and deeds.

"Brother Immortal Dao!"

The Shenxiao Daoist also saluted slowly.

The two looked at each other and smiled, although the two of them were usually competitors, but at this moment Yuan Shoucheng seized the opportunity, and the two had to join forces.

"There are really people in the world who can have longevity and control the power of heavenly thunder!" Li Shimin looked at Shenxiao Daoren and said in a condensed voice.

"Your Majesty, hearing is not necessarily false, and seeing is not necessarily believing. What you say, even what you see, is just that they want you to see it. Merton suddenly spoke.

Li Shimin was suddenly taken aback, and he was completely blessed to his heart, and looked at the Shenxiao Daoist who was slowly entering Chang'an City in surprise.

"Is it ......?" Li Shimin trembled.

Merton nodded and said, "If you can break the barrier, it will naturally be loud, and the sound will be more than a thousand times at that time." ”
