Chapter Forty-Eight: Yuanyu is really here
On the fifth day of the seventh month, the wind was light and the clouds were light, and the heavenly punishment ceremony was held on the cool mountain outside Chang'an City.
Before dawn, hundreds of people smeared and went up the mountain, just to grab a position in the square where they could see the star picking platform.
Of course, in addition to watching the heavenly punishment, everyone also wants to see the legendary Yuanyu real person.
This woman, who stands at the double peak of power and cultivation in the cultivation world, has surpassed the heads of previous generations and celebrities from all walks of life, and may enter the realm of ascension at any time, get rid of the shackles of the physical body, and realize the heavenly opportunity.
In recent years, she has been in retreat a lot, rarely walking on the mainland, and is dedicated to cultivation, and this time she can come from Jihua Mountain to Dayan, which is enough to see the weight of Hua Yu in her heart.
After dawn, the square is already a sea of people, even the sky is densely occupied, everyone is looking at it from afar, waiting for the solemn and holy figure, in the hearts of everyone, Yuanyu Zhenren is no different from God.
Soon, Shen Xiong's horn sounded, and a group of beautifully dressed people appeared in the sight of everyone, with great momentum, accompanied by Hao Hao Tangtang, where they passed, the pious people knelt on the ground like the tide of the sea.
At the head are two rather dazzling figures, who are embraced by everyone and become the focus of attention.
Nangong Yi and Yuanyu Zhenren came side by side, the former was dressed in a gorgeous dress embroidered with gold thread on the bottom of the Xuan, and his majesty and dignity were innate, like a natural emperor;
The two stood together, like a pair of beautiful people made of yin and yang fish.
Yuan Yu Zhenren looked at the star picking platform from afar, and took the lead in speaking, soft as the wind, "The scenery on Qingliang Mountain is magnificent and beautiful, and it is a blessed land in Dayan." β
"Thanks to the praise of the real people, I want to come here to be blessed, but today I was used to send thunder to the heavens to punish the beloved disciples of the real people, and this king really didn't want to go. β
"Your Highness doesn't have to be like this," Yuan Yu Zhenren smiled faintly, quite calmly, "Although the concubine is innocent, she can suffer this catastrophe, and ordinary people can't go through the ordeal, which is also a benefit to her." β
Nangong Yi looked at the high star-picking platform, heard her call Hua Yu very kindly, and suddenly asked: "Since the Taoist believes that she is innocent, why do you still obey everyone's wishes and descend to heaven to punish and judge?"
Yuan Yu Zhenren was slightly stunned, looked at him seriously, chuckled, and the laughter seemed to come from a distant sky, hazy and gentle, "If I don't punish heaven, how will the world view the poor road and the Taiyuan view?
"But heavenly punishment is not an ordinary criminal law, as far as this king knows, being struck by a thunderbolt is ashes, does a real person really feel that it is necessary to take such a risk?" Nangong Yi looked at her with doubts, and there was a lot of unbearability in her eyes.
Yuanyu Zhenren sighed, shook his head and said: "Your Royal Highness and the ministers, you may understand the difficulties of the poor road, you are my disciple, she was born to be looked at by countless pairs of eyes in the cultivation world, how much she is respected, you must know how many grievances to bear, I am the head of Taiyuan Guan, and sometimes I can't protect her." β
Nangong Yi smiled slightly, the semantics were unclear, "Indeed, there are more last resorts in high places, and in order to take care of the overall situation, there must always be a trade-off." β
"Your Highness seems to have a lot of experience," when Yuan Yu Zhenren said this, he quickly looked at Nangong Yi, and then suddenly changed his words and asked, "Your Highness, do you think that I am too ruthless as a master?"
Nangong Yi's heart sank, even if Yuanyu Zhenren converged quickly, he still felt her temptation in an instant, and that kind of cold needle-like gaze, as if peeping from hell, made him shudder.
He tensed his whole body to barely hold his look.
"The real person has the world in his heart, and it is his responsibility to fulfill morality and uphold justice, and Xiao Wang does not dare to criticize. It's just that if Hua Wei is my disciple and I know that she is innocent, then no matter what the world says, I will not listen, let alone succumb to rumors and hurt her. β
Yuan Yu Zhenren was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, with a loving look between his eyebrows, and said slowly like an elder: "Your Highness is a bloody person, which is very good, but things in the world are difficult to say, people often find out when things come to an end, they are small and powerless, and they can't go against the general trend, and Your Highness's road is still far away." β
Nangong Yi didn't say anything, and looked into the distance with her, but her heart didn't dare to relax her carelessness.
Although his reckless words were deliberately said to Yuanyu Zhenren, which made her feel that she was not in the climate, but after saying this, it made him feel refreshed, as if he had endured her for a long time, and he did not vomit or feel unhappy.
If I were that child's master, I wouldn't have caused her to suffer such grievancesβyes, that's what he had thought.
Yuan Yu Zhenren was thinking in his heart, this young man looked at Wen Ruyu, but he didn't expect that he was an angular, daring to question himself unceremoniously, worthy of being able to hold power at such an age.
When the two were silent, a voice as crisp as a silver bell sounded, and Hua Yu shouted, "Master!"
The two looked at each other.
Hua Wei, dressed in a blue and white robe, trotted from the other end of the square, and the breeze from the top of the hill filled her sleeves. Her pink face and clean eyes were full of joy, not at all like a prisoner preparing to be tortured, but like a weaver girl who met her lover for thousands of miles.
"Master!" Hua Yu stood in front of Yuanyu Zhenren and shouted again, crisp and sweet, she shook her body slightly with her hands behind her back, looking coquettish, as if she didn't see anyone else at all.
Nangong Yi was ignored, a little unhappy in her heart, and she relied on her cultivation to keep silent.
Danhe followed behind, and when he saw that his dignified regent was treated like this, he felt quite unhappy, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense because he was afraid of Yuanyu's status as a real person.
On the square where countless people in the sky and the earth were watching, Yuan Yu Zhenren reached out and touched Hua Yan's head, and said softly and helplessly: "You kid is still so reckless, let His Royal Highness King Huai laugh." β
Hua Wei seemed to have just seen Nangong Yi, opened her eyes to look at him, and then looked back at the master with an expectant face, thinking: I am not familiar with King Huai, but I also have some friendship, he has a good temper, he will not worry about me, I haven't seen the master for a long time, it is only right to take a few more looks.
Nangong Yi continued to be ignored, the original unhappiness was like sprouting, and she couldn't help but think, this child is not necessarily smart, no one can see if she is good to her.
"Master, am I causing trouble for you? Listen to me, I have not harmed anyone, let alone killed anyone. β
"As a teacher, you know that you are a good boy. Yuan Yu Zhenren smiled, as if this was just a trivial matter, "It's just a formality, so that the people of the world can look at it with peace of mind, you don't have to have any pressure, the teacher will personally protect the Fa for you." β
Hua Wei giggled, "Master is here, I'm not afraid!"
Danhe stepped forward coldly, first saluted, and then reported to his home, and said slowly: "Danhe doesn't want to disturb the real person and the flower path chief to catch up, but the time has come, and the poor road, as a prisoner, has to abide by his duties to remind the two, and ask the flower path chief to prepare for the punishment." β
Hua Yu and her eyes met, the two sides nodded to each other politely, Hua Yu faintly felt that Danhe showed hostility, a little strange, but she was afraid of her talent, and did not think much about it.
Yuanyu Zhenren didn't even look at Danhe, and only whispered to Hua Yan: "Go ahead." β
Hua Yu restrained her coquettish look, her eyes suddenly became firm, and she knelt on the ground and spoke loudly. , word by word: "Master is above, Hua Yu asked herself to be punished by the Nine Thunder Heavenly Punishment, self-confession, and all present are witnesses, if I turn my back on the way of heaven and do evil things, I will be destroyed by my soul and never enter reincarnation." β
There was a sudden uproar in the square, and Danhe also showed a look of surprise and looked at Hua Yu fixedly.
Nangong Yi sighed slightly, sighing that she was stupid, for the sake of her master and Taiyuan Guan, she really did everything.
One Heavenly Thunder is Nine Paths, and Nine Heavenly Thunder is Nine Nine Eighty-One Days, and she has to tell the world that her master has raised a good apprentice.
