Chapter 4 Promotion: Great Confucian! Canonization: King Nanxian!

Spring goes to autumn, and cold and heat alternate.

Unconsciously, more than ten years have passed.

During this period, Gu Ming instilled a large number of Confucianism and Taoist doctrines and concepts into Sun Wukong.

From time to time, supplemented by export skills, these ideas have taken root and sprouted in Sun Wukong's heart......

At the same time, Sun Wukong also reported to Qiong Yao and revealed some of his own cultivation methods.

Although Gu Ming may not necessarily practice these methods, he will always be prepared in his heart.

And you can also get some inspiration from it, so you can create some spells of your own.

During this period, Gu Ming went back twice, stayed at home for about four years, and released two new books on Confucianism.

For Gu Ming, the past ten years have been precipitation, and it is also the longest interval between upgrades.

His prestige has also reached a peak.

Not to mention cultivation, his attainments in music, calligraphy, danqing, poetry, literary style, organ skills, etc., are also brilliant, involving a wide range of times, which can be described as ancient and modern, which makes people all over the world look up.

At this time, Emperor Yongping also took the initiative to let the emperor be the crown prince because of his advanced age.

As soon as the crown prince ascended the throne, he immediately canonized Gu Ming as the "King of Nanxian", and at the same time canonized as a pilgrim, honorifically called: Gu Zi!

For courtiers outside the imperial family, most of the people who canonized the king were the founding heroes, and in addition, it was almost impossible to be crowned a king with a different surname.

Since the establishment of the Great Yan Dynasty, except for the three kings with different surnames who were personally canonized by Yan Taizu when the dynasty was first established, Gu Ming was the first to be canonized as a prince for hundreds of years.

However, what made the world the most sensational was not Gu Ming's canonization of kings, but canonization!

Because from ancient times to the present, there has been no saint for nearly a thousand years, and Gu Ming has broken another record.

It's not that the prince is impulsive, or he is working against his father.

To put it bluntly, this was deliberately done by Emperor Yongping.

Gu Ming's contribution to the Great Yan Dynasty is obvious to all, and it has brought the Great Yan Dynasty to unprecedented glory.

At the same time, his achievements in literature, calligraphy and painting are also obvious to all, so it is natural to be canonized as a king and canonized.

It's just that if Emperor Yongping does all these things, and steals all the limelight by himself, what will the prince use to win people's hearts after he ascends the throne?

Therefore, Emperor Yongping only gave Gu Ming a sub-saint and a prince before, and the reward after that should be left to the crown prince to do.

Of course, the reward is not only a name, but also a lot of substantive rewards, such as gold and silver silk, fiefdoms, palaces located in the capital, and so on......

At the peak of his prestige, Gu Ming also ushered in a long-lost upgrade.

This time it was much smoother, it only took less than two months to upgrade smoothly, and there was no thunderstorm or anything like that.

……

The capital, the palace of the king of Nanxian.

"Slaves and maids see the prince, see the princess!"

"The villain sees the prince, and the princess and the princess!"

As soon as Gu Ming and Nie Xiaoqian entered the palace, dozens of subordinates stepped forward to salute.

This was the first time Gu Ming had come to his palace after being enthroned, so a group of subordinates gathered together to wait.

He was promoted to the prince, and Nie Xiaoqian, as the wife of the main house, was naturally registered as the princess.

Yu'er also has a reward, but she is a side room, and according to the law, she cannot be canonized as a concubine, but can only be canonized as a first-class lady.

In this regard, Yu'er is already satisfied.

In fact, she doesn't care about whether she is sealed or not, as long as she can always be by her side with Xianggong and Miss, she has no regrets in her life.

Not to mention that her current cultivation has gradually improved, although she is far inferior to Miss, but if she wants to set foot in the rivers and lakes, she can be a master.

Soon after, the subordinate hurriedly came to report: "Lord Qiqi, Her Royal Highness Princess Ningyang and Her Royal Highness Princess An Yun are visiting." ”

"Oh? Please, Your Highnesses, two princesses! ”

This must be replaced by others who have already rushed to the door to greet her in person, otherwise it will be a snub to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

It's just that with Gu Ming's current identity, fame and status, except for the emperor and the emperor, no one else, including the prince, needs to greet him in person.

"Yes!"

The servant hurriedly turned and left.

As soon as the next person left, Gu Ming couldn't help but smile at Nie Xiaoqian and said, "I didn't expect these two little girls to be quite well-informed, and they came to the door so soon." ”

Nie Xiaoqian couldn't help but cover her lips and smile: "Lord Wang, the two little girls in your mouth have already grown up......"

Indeed, it has been nearly twenty years since Gu Ming first met the two little princesses, and the two little girls back then had already become wives and mothers.

"Teacher, teacher, we are here, hehe......hee"

Not long after, Princess Ningyang and Princess Anyun walked in with a smile.

Although the two of them have grown up, they still maintain the simplicity and innocence of the year in front of Gu Ming.

"Grandpa, Grandma......"

Three little guys ran out from behind the second girl and ran over happily.

In addition to the three little ones, there are also a few girl rings carrying gift boxes.

After all, how could a dignified princess come to visit the teacher empty-handed?

Suddenly, they all became grandparents?

Gu Ming couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"Hahaha, I seem to see the cute little princess again......"

Gu Ming couldn't help but recall the old days, and squatted down with a look of pity and hugged the three little guys into his arms.

Of course, gifts are also indispensable.

"Wow, what a beautiful butterfly!"

"Grandpa, I want it too, I want it too, I want it too, I want ...... too"

"Don't worry, it's all ......"

Gu Ming smiled and took out a few butterflies and birds and gave them to the three little ones.

These butterflies and birds look vivid, like living creatures, but in fact, they are all made with ingenious tricks, which are really artifacts for coaxing children.

As for Princess Ningyang and Princess An Yun, Gu Ming naturally did not skimp, and gave a bottle of elixir respectively.

This is the elixir he has refined himself, which has the effect of assisting cultivation, and ordinary people can also strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives when they take it.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

The two princesses were overjoyed and thanked them repeatedly.

"Don't patronize Xie, usually remember to practice more about the meditation and forgetfulness that the teacher taught you, the pill is just an auxiliary, and diligent cultivation is the foundation."

"Yes, students remember the teacher's teachings!"

Today, Gu Ming has at least three or four thousand students, ranging from princes and princesses to poor students.

It's just that most of these students are studying in the academy, and Gu Ming only occasionally goes to the academy to give a few lectures.

After dinner, Gu Ming sent the two princesses away, and then came to the Yasukuni Mansion with a thought.

At present, Luo Yan is no longer in the mansion, and Gu Ming is just casually coming over to have a look.

The last time he returned to the world of Liaozhai, Luo Yan said goodbye to him, saying that he sensed a mysterious calling.

This also means that her red dust in this world is over, and she will return to her place.

But this does not mean that the fate of the two is over.

They have a silent tacit understanding: one day, they will meet again.

……

After staying in the capital for almost a month, Gu Ming returned to Guobei County.

After staying for almost a year, I went to Qin Shi Mingyue World again, and then returned to the Westward Journey World again.

In fact, going to Journey to the West is not arbitrary, and you need to consume 5,000 points each time.

Fortunately, the demons in the Liaozhai world have been greatly reduced, but the demons in the Journey to the West world are countless, as long as you have time and energy, you don't have to worry about earning points.

Entering this time, Gu Ming's self-confidence has increased a lot.

After all, this upgrade has greatly improved his strength again, and according to Gu Ming's speculation, his current realm should be equivalent to the level of Taiyi Scattered Immortals.

But if you go all out to fight, you may be able to play close to or even reach the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Of course, this is only limited to theory, and the specific strength has to be tested in actual combat.

Another point is the question of how to deal with the magic weapon.

For example, Sun Wukong, if he didn't rely on the magic weapon, there were really not many people who believed that the gods and Buddhas of the heavens could compete with him head-on.

Even if there is no golden hoop stick, Sun Wukong's strength with his fists and feet alone is quite terrifying, and it can be called a model of physical sanctification.

After all, he has unique conditions and opportunities that are difficult for ordinary people to reach.

It is said that the Monkey King jumped out of the stone, but in fact, the stone is just a carrier, just like an eggshell.

His body is a heaven-mending divine stone left by Nuwa Niangniang in ancient times, and this divine stone also leaves a wisp of Nuwa Niangniang's essence.

After countless years of nourishment and nurturing of the aura of heaven and earth, the Divine Stone finally opened its spiritual wisdom, gave birth to a delicate stone heart, and transformed into the original form of ancient humans.

Ancient humans, in fact, were monkeys.

To a certain extent, Sun Wukong and Nuwa Niangniang had a subtle and consistent relationship before, so he was earth-shattering as soon as he was born, because there was an ancient divine power hidden in his body.

This is also the reason why some great gods secretly help him.

It's a pity that Sun Wukong has brute strength, and once he encounters some special magic weapons, he can only go crazy, because these magic weapons are difficult to deal with with brute force alone.

Therefore, Gu Ming attaches more importance to this point.

Although his Biluo and Qinglian can be regarded as magic weapon grades, they have no special effects, and their main effects are still used as weapons.

Therefore, you must find a way to find a few magic weapons for self-defense......

When I came to the world of Journey to the West again, the pattern of the Central Plains had changed greatly, the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty was slowly kicking off, and the majestic Chang'an City was welcoming the coming dynasty from all directions.

According to the timeline, I am afraid that it will be fast to learn from the west.

So, Gu Ming came to the foot of the Five Elements Mountain again.

"Brother Gu, great, you're finally here!"

As soon as he saw Gu Ming, Sun Wukong was extremely excited, waving his hands and shouting.

Gu Ming stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Why is the Great Sage so happy?" ”

"My grandson is convinced, I'm really convinced! The Bodhisattva has already come to find Lao Sun, so that Lao Sun can wait with peace of mind, saying that in the near future, there will be a Tang Dynasty monk who will go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures.

He also said that if Lao Sun wanted to get out of trouble, he would worship the monk as a teacher, and protect the monk to go to the west to find the old man to learn from him. ”

As soon as he heard this, Gu Ming was also extremely pleased, and said sincerely: "Then I will congratulate the Great Sage in advance on getting out of trouble." ”

"Hahaha, my grandson finally doesn't have to suffer under this bird mountain...... But speaking of which, I really admire my grandson, you actually informed my grandson one step ahead of the Bodhisattva. ”

"By the way, you didn't mention what you told Guanyin about you, did you?"

Gu Ming still asked a little uneasily.

"Of course not, my grandson swore an oath."

Saying this, Gu Ming finally put his mind at ease.

Now that the path of learning from the scriptures is about to begin, then ...... It's time to do some preparation first.

The first stop, the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.

Gu Ming's trip to the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea was a treasure hunt.

The dragon clan naturally likes to collect all kinds of rare treasures, and the Dragon King of the Dragon Sea, as the head of the Dragon King of the Four Seas, has countless treasures in the Dragon Palace.

Back then, Sun Wukong also heard about this before he ran to ask for a baby, and finally by chance got the Dinghai Shen Needle left by Dayu when he controlled the water: Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick!

Of course, although there are many treasures of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, it is impossible to give them away for no reason, so Gu Ming still made some preparations for this trip.

It's not difficult to find the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.

Gu Ming first came to Dongsheng Shenzhou to find Huaguo Mountain, and then found the big waterfall outside the Water Curtain Cave and jumped down directly.

Because there is a deep pool under the waterfall, you can reach the outside of the Crystal Palace through the spring at the bottom of the pool.

"Who?"

"What a dare, to trespass into the Crystal Palace?"

"Take him!"

As soon as Gu Ming appeared, several shrimp soldiers and crabs surrounded him indiscriminately with knives and hairpins in their hands.

"Boom~"

Gu Ming gently pushed his palm, and a whirlpool swung open, easily repelling those shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

Of course, he has a measured move, just shake the other party away.

After all, he came to the Dragon Palace to seek treasure, if these shrimp soldiers and crabs were injured, how would he talk to the old dragon king next?

"It's not good, this guy is very skilled, go and report to the Dragon King."

"Wait!" Gu Ming raised his hand and shouted: "Trouble everyone to report to the old dragon king, under Gu Ming, he is a friend of the Monkey King, and he came to the Dragon Palace to visit the old dragon king." ”

"What?"

"Monkey King...... The Great Sage? ”

"Is that the monkey in Huaguo Mountain?"

It is really the name of a person, the shadow of a tree.

Even though it was hundreds of years ago, when it comes to the monkey...... These shrimp soldiers and crabs will still be frightened one by one, and their heads will break out in cold sweat.

After all, Sun Wukong made a big fuss in the Dragon Palace back then, and then he made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and his prestige became great.

"Report ...... Report ......"

A turtle soldier hurried back to the Dragon Palace to report.

Although the old dragon king is old, his heart is not old.

At this moment, he was holding a jade cup and sipping wine, and there were two beauties sitting beside him......

"What's the panic?"

Hearing the shouting of his subordinates, the old dragon king shouted with some dissatisfaction.

"Gift...... Dragon King, outside...... There are ...... outside There was a man who called himself Qi ...... Monkey King......"

"Smack~"

As soon as he heard the words Monkey King, the poor old dragon king's hand trembled, and a precious luminous cup fell to the ground and fell into several pieces.

“…… Target...... Friends visiting ......"

The stammering turtle soldier finally finished reporting.

"Bastard!"

The old dragon king was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and he hated to step forward and stomp this guy to death.

Can't you just finish it all in one go?

The frightened old dragon's little liver fluttered......

Speaking of which, the old dragon king is really sad.

On the surface, it is very beautiful, ruling the four seas, calling for wind and rain, countless treasures in the Dragon Palace, surrounded by beautiful women.

However, the dignified Dragon King couldn't even keep his own son.

Back then, Nezha was extremely stubborn, and he went to the East China Sea to make a fuss, making the Crystal Palace sway.

The third prince, Ao Bing, was also a fiery temper, and immediately led the crowd to find Nezha Xiao'er's trouble. But who knew that Nezha Xiao'er seemed to be young, but he was so talented that he beat Ao Bing to death.

Killed doesn't count, but also to peel cramps.

The old dragon king came to Li Jing to ask for the guilt, asked for Ao Bing's dragon tendons, and then went to the heavenly court to complain.

Nezha Xiao'er was very cunning, and he actually ran outside the heavenly court first and beat the old dragon king who was about to sue, and also stripped off the dragon scales and forced him to take home to play as a small snake......

Its stubbornness can be seen.

It's a pity that in order to beautify Nezha Xiaoer, later generations actually reversed black and white, saying that the old dragon king coerced the people to sacrifice boys and girls, and the people did not rain if they did not obey, causing a great drought in the world and starving to death countless people.

Nezha Xiao'er was furious, made a big fuss in the East China Sea, killed the third prince Ao Bing, injured the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and finally got justice for the people.

This simply made the old dragon king carry a big black cauldron.

The dignified Dragon King of the East China Sea, the righteous god who sits in the four seas, needs to devour boys and girls?

Besides, if the Dragon King really dares to do this, where is the need for Nezha Xiao'er to do it? It has long been taken by Heavenly Court.

You must know that the law enforcement of the Heavenly Court is still relatively strict.

For example, the little white dragon, the third prince of the Dragon King of the West Sea, set a fire because of his stubbornness for a while and burned a pearl.

As a result, he was accused of going to heaven and sentenced to death by the Jade Emperor.

In the end, it was Guanyin Bodhisattva who came forward to intercede, and only then did he relegate it to the snake pan mountain eagle sorrowful stream waiting for someone to learn the scriptures.

Let's say that the Dragon King of the East China Sea was humiliated again and again, and in desperation, he invited the Dragon King of the Three Seas to go to the sky to complain together.

In the end, Nezha Xiao'er staged a scene of cutting meat and removing bones, and apologized for suicide, so that Li Jing and his wife were spared.

After that, Taiyi Zhenren remembered his outstanding talent and used his great magic power to reshape his true body.

After that, he returned to heaven.

Therefore, the old dragon king is afraid of Sun Wukong, but he hates Nezha.

Although Sun Wukong is also stubborn, he just plays with his temper like a child when he makes trouble in the Dragon Palace, which is as ruthless as Nezha, and he picks his skin and cramps at every turn at a young age.

"Dragon...... Dragon King, how...... What to do? ”

The turtle soldier stammered and asked.

The old dragon king frowned and pondered for a moment, then sighed: "Well, since he is a friend of the Great Sage, we can't be lazy, please invite him in." ”

"Yes!"

The turtle soldier answered, and quickly ran out again.

"Dragon...... The dragon king has ...... There is an order, let ...... Let him in...... Go in ......."

"Thank you!"

Gu Ming smiled and arched his hand, and then stepped into the Crystal Palace under the leadership of the two shrimp soldiers.

As soon as I entered the Crystal Palace, I found that there was no water in it at all, and I thought that there was a special barrier to block the sea water.

Although he has entered the world of his own writing, Gu Ming cannot be exhaustive, such as the layout of this Dragon Palace, almost all of them are brushed aside.

Now it looks like it's really resplendent and dreamlike.

Colorful corals, all kinds of strange stones, crystals, large and small pearls are just right to decorate the main hall.

The floor should be covered with rare mutton fat white jade, and the king-size dragon chair is carved from jadeite, inlaid with some pearls and various colored gemstones.

This has to be sold by the people, I don't know how much silver it is worth?

Sure enough, the rumors are true, this old dragon king is a complete local tyrant.

"Under Gu Ming, see the old dragon king!"

Gu Ming is a Confucian person, and his etiquette is naturally quite thorough.

It's like Monkey King, and everywhere he goes, he is called a monkey, and there is no etiquette at all.

But that's a long time ago.

After more than ten years of brainwashing by Gu Ming, I believe that it will be much better after getting out of trouble in the future.

"Little friend is very polite, hehe!"

The old dragon king replied with a salute, and then asked suspiciously: "I don't know how Xiaoyou and the Great Sage got acquainted?" ”

"That's right, a few years ago, I passed through the Five Elements Mountain, and talked with the Great Sage for a while, and I felt that the Great Sage was quite upright, so I discussed the Tao with him for a few years."

"This ...... It's really hard for Xiaoyou. ”

The old dragon king couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Ha, it's not bitter, in fact, the Great Sage has been pressed under the Five Elements Mountain for more than 500 years, and his temperament has changed a lot.

He also said that when he had the chance, he would definitely come to the Crystal Palace to make a compensatory ...... to the old dragon king."

"Really?"

The old dragon king's eyes lit up.

"How dare you deceive the old dragon king?"

That sentence was indeed said by Sun Wukong himself, not made up by Gu Ming.

"Then I wonder if the Great Sage is willing to return the Dinghai God Needle?"

"This ...... I'm afraid not, after all, the Great Sage is used to that weapon. ”

The old dragon king sighed: "I'm just casually talking, it's impossible to return the monkey head if you want to." However, he was willing to come to make a compensation, and the old dragon was very pleased......"

Speaking of this, the old dragon king couldn't help patting his forehead: "Look at me, patronizing and talking...... Little friend, come to the seat, come to someone, serve tea! ”

"Yes!"

The maid standing next to her replied.

Most of the maids in this crystal palace are changed by mussel essence and fish essence, and they are all as beautiful as flowers...... In short, in Gu Ming's eyes, he can score at least seven or eight points.

"The old dragon king is polite!"

"By the way, I wonder why Xiaoyou came to visit the Crystal Palace?"

In fact, the old dragon king was already secretly guessing in his heart, this person would not have been instigated by the monkey head to come to the Dragon Palace to ask for a treasure, right?

If you really want to open your mouth...... It's okay, just get one or two things and send them away, more things are better than less.

As a result, what Gu Ming said surprised him.

"That's right, I heard that the old dragon king likes to collect the world's rare things, so he specially came to offer a few."

"Oh?"

The old dragon king's eyes lit up.

"What is it?"

"Old Dragon King, please take a look......"

Gu Ming's mind moved, and there was an extra scroll of paintings in his hand.

"Huh? Draw? ”

The old dragon king frowned.

Although he likes to collect rare treasures, he has never been interested in anything like paintings and calligraphy.

It's just that when Gu Ming slowly unfolded the scroll, his eyes, which had already begun to dim, lit up again.

This painting depicts the sea, and there is a dragon palace at the bottom of the sea, and there are a few words on it: East China Sea East Palace.

Although the exterior is not quite the same as his Crystal Palace, the painting looks quite magical, as if it were a living scene, and you can see the water rippling inside, and some fish, shrimp, and turtles swimming around.

"This ...... Where did this painting come from? ”

The old dragon king asked in surprise.

"Hehe, that's exactly what I'm doing."

"Huh? Be...... Did you draw it? ”

"That's right!"

"The painting is simply amazing, I didn't expect Xiaoyou to be good at the art of danqing, and the painting is so magical!"

When it comes to painting, the most amazing thing in the world is Nuwa Niangniang's "Mountains and Rivers Society Map".

That's a magic weapon in a league of its own.

However, Gu Ming's painting is also relatively rare, both in terms of technique and its dynamic magical effect, which amazed the old dragon king.

"In addition to this painting, I brought a few other items underneath."

While speaking, Gu Ming took out a few more things.

These things were all brought by him from the world of Liaozhai, including the most exquisite ceramics, as well as exquisite glass beads and glass vessels.

Although there were many treasures in the Dragon Palace, Gu Ming was probably sure that the Dragon King had never seen such a beautiful glaze.

After all, this is something from another time and space, and in the current world, it is unlikely to find such a well-made glass.

Although it is a mortal thing, some mortal things are also extremely rare for the gods.

Otherwise, there would not be so many immortals who covet the glory and wealth of the world.

Sure enough, when he saw these glassed old dragon kings, he was even more energetic, and he grabbed them in his hands and couldn't put them down.

The dragon clan, most of them like shiny things, but Gu Ming fully grasped the psychology of the old dragon king and came prepared.

"It's so beautiful, it's just so beautiful, it's even more beautiful than the old dragon's collection of gems......"

"Hehe, just a small gift, I hope the old dragon king won't dislike it."

"Xiaoyou is too modest...... However......" The old dragon king was not blinded by the treasure, and raised his eyes and asked suspiciously: "The old dragon and Xiaoyou are not related, why did they come to offer treasures?" ”

"This ...... Don't hide it from the old dragon king, I also want to find a treasure in the Dragon Palace. ”

"Hahaha!"

Hearing this, the old dragon king laughed happily.

Now, he finally dispelled his doubts.

It's best to have contacts and dealings, so that he doesn't owe favors......

So, a local tyrant waved his hand: "Okay, since this is the case, the old dragon will not be stingy, what kind of baby does Xiaoyou need, although he opens his mouth, there are beauties, Xiaoyou can also choose ...... at will"

Gu Ming: "......"
