"You know what? The Dragon King of the East China Sea, who destroyed the 100,000 naval army of my Tang Dynasty, has been killed! ”

"How is that possible? Didn't you listen to the imperial court's dispatch of troops? ”

"What kind of soldiers? It was killed by a man! Li Rong Li Daochang, it is said that he attracted the thunder of the sky, and he killed the dragon king with a thunderbolt! ”

"Huh? Really? I don't read much, you don't want to be ...... by me"

"What is it? The corpses of the dragon kings are all pulled to the docks, go, seeing is believing, take a look! ”

In the afternoon of the next day, thousands of people in Luoyang were empty, and the people rushed to the wharf to watch the corpse of the "Dragon King", causing the collapse of the Luoyang wharf and a slight death and injury.

Later, there were 3,000 forbidden troops to maintain order, so that the people of Dali Temple were able to escape.

In the Qianyuan Palace, Lu Heng, who left first with Di Renjie and Yu Chi Zhenjin, was summoned by the emperor and empress again.

"Qi Yu two sages, the minister is ordered to investigate and deal with the case of Gu disaster, and pursue the giant ao who destroyed the water army, and at present, the giant ao who did evil, Huo Yi, the head of the East Island thief, etc., have been ambushed. These are two pairs of teeth in the mouth of the giant ao, specially dedicated to His Majesty and the Queen. ”

"Good! Good! Good! "The emperor is overjoyed," Li Qing is really a master of the Daomen, and even such a giant can be destroyed in one battle, which shows the depth of the Dao. I have Li Qing, if I have God's help! ”

"Your Majesty's praise!" Lu Heng bowed and said, "This time I can succeed in a battle, it all depends on the central dispatch of Chi Zhenjin, the Qing Lieutenant of Dali Temple, and the outstanding planning and tactics of Cheng Diren of Dali Temple, Weichen is just a brute force." ”

"Hahaha, Li Qing, don't be modest!" The emperor smiled and beckoned, and immediately a chamberlain walked towards Lu Heng with a wooden plate.

At the same time, the emperor also stepped down the golden ranks.

He picked up the contents of the wooden plate, handed it to Lu Heng, and said with a smile: "This is a dragon mace, made of star meteorite, and it is stronger than gold and stone. ”

After a pause, the emperor lowered his voice and said with deep meaning: "This gong was offered by Yuan Tiangang and Yuan Daochang during the reign of my father, and it is rumored that it can break all laws in the world." ”

Lu Heng's expression moved slightly, he looked at Empress Wu quietly, but saw that Empress Wu's face was full of haze, and his phoenix eyes were angry.

The emperor laughed, and continued to let go of his voice: "I give you this today, I hope that you can suppress the Quartet for my Tang Dynasty, eliminate the evil of the troubles and the common people, and become the conscience of protecting the country, the law of the world, and the widow and the royal family, who are harmful to the society, Qing, can be admonished with this." ”

Lu Heng's face was solemn, and he bowed down to take it: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" ”

The emperor laughed happily: "Don't be busy, Li Qing, do you remember the promise I made to you that day?" I have said that the day of your triumph will be the time when you will be canonized as my Tang National Teacher. Li Rong and Li Daochang listened to the seal! ”

"Wait!"

At this moment, the empress suddenly spoke, and the words that brought the emperor to his mouth suddenly stopped in her throat.

The emperor turned around in displeasure, and saw the queen standing up and said with a smile: "Li Qing has worked hard and deserves to be rewarded." It's just that the position of the national teacher is related to the country, not only must have the magical power to deter all directions, but also have both ability and political integrity, otherwise, not only can not convince the people of the world, but will make people question the majesty of the court. ”

The emperor frowned: "I have promised Li Qing, could it be that the queen wants me to say but not believe it?" ”

"Your Majesty's golden words cannot be easily changed." Before the queen walked to the golden steps, she looked at Lu Heng condescendingly, "It's just that I solved a case and was crowned a national teacher, and my Tang National Teacher is too child's play, right?" Li Qing, Your Majesty's promise to you is a great grace, but if you want to be a national teacher, you still need to go through the test. ”

"This palace has summoned virtuous people in the world, can you dare to debate with them before the hundred officials, and prove that you have the qualifications to be a national teacher?"

Lu Heng took a deep look at the queen and found that she had been cast a spell again, but this time it was even more clever than last time, and with Lu Heng's ability, it couldn't be easily broken.

Lu Heng was silent for a moment, and arched his hand: "If the minister wins, what should I do?" What about defeat? ”

The queen smiled slightly: "If Qing wins, he will naturally be crowned as a national teacher and learn from the world!" If you are defeated......"

The queen's tone turned cold: "That is, the virtue and talent are not enough, the ability is not good, and the palace will not offend you, only take back your Kang Longgong and drive you away from the court, and when you learn the skills and cultivate your virtues, come back!" ”

The emperor's face was a little soothed at this moment, and he said: "The queen's worries are not unreasonable, Li Qing is a master, why is he afraid of others fighting the law and arguing the scriptures?" It's just the queen, where is the reason to take back what I gave away? What's more, Li Qing is a meritorious minister, and he is not rewarded for his merits, but is punished, what is the reason? ”

He looked at Lu Heng and said with a pleasant face: "Li Qing, I also want you to be the best in the world with the magic power of Jingyi, and I believe that you will be able to win, but even if you lose, I will give you another reward, and I will never treat you badly." ”

When the queen heard this, her face was slightly gloomy again.

Lu Heng saluted expressionlessly: "Minister, thank Your Majesty for your grace." ”

He straightened up, looked directly at the queen and said, "What the queen said, the minister quite agreed. It's just that although the minister is shallow, no one is qualified to fight with me to debate the law. ”

"The minister heard that the queen has summoned the world's masters in front of the palace, why don't you let the ministers try the ways of these masters first, lest the queen be deceived by the warlocks of the rivers and lakes and laugh at the world!"

"Bold!" The queen was furious, "Li Rong, you dare to question this palace? ”

"The minister has no such intention," Lu Heng said lightly, "It's just that there are many tricks in the rivers and lakes that use acrobatics to deceive the world, if you are mixed into the court by such a young person, it will inevitably damage the majesty of Your Majesty and the Empress." ”

The emperor saw that the queen was about to get angry and scold, so he rushed before and said with a smile: "Li Qing is reasonable, the queen, the master you found also wants to see and understand, it is better to gather them and let Li Qing see if there are any indiscriminate people among them." ”

The queen glared at Lu Heng and said slowly: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Lu Heng's expression was light and light, but he was thinking in his heart, should he simply change his court, take refuge in Li Zhi, and bring down Empress Wu, or eradicate the people behind Empress Wu and get things back on track?

After a stick of incense, the master summoned by the queen arrived.

There are monks and Taoists, men and women, a total of more than ten people.

"See the two saints, I wish the two saints a long life, and the Tang Dynasty will be 10,000 years old!"

The dignitaries knelt down in unison.

The emperor looked at these strangely shaped and unkempt people below, and his heart suddenly displeased, but because of the queen, he didn't say anything.

The queen said with a pleasant face: "You guys are flat." ”

"Empress Xie."

"Your Majesty, these high-ranking people are all people with high reputation among the people," the queen said with a smile, "They are all the leaders of the various sects, and there is no lack of heads and abbots of the sects. For example, that phantom innocent person, the Tao is profound, not only can call the wind and rain, but also can seek the truth in vain, solve the case and eliminate the demon, which is a rare talent. ”

One of the masters held the dust in his hand, and the black-faced Taoist wearing a crown stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Grass people Phantom Heaven, see Your Majesty." ”

The queen pointed to a middle-aged monk in a gorgeous robe and said: "This is the abbot of Chongxin Temple, the idle master, and he is one of the few people in the world who has dabbled in both Buddhist and Taoist scriptures. ”

Idle seemed to be very nervous, lowered his head and trembled, and saluted: "See, see Your Majesty." ”

The emperor smiled and said undeniably: "Since the queen said that your Dao is profound, it is better to ask you to practice Dafa in the palace and let me open my eyes!" ”

The phantom innocent person said respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

He slowly raised his head and glanced at Lu Heng, who had not looked at him since he entered the hall, and sneered in his heart.

This kid didn't know what shit luck he had, but he was favored by the emperor and promised to be the national teacher, but he hated the queen, so it can be seen that he is a blessed person.

The milk smell has not dried, and the ability must not be high.

As for killing the giant turtle -

Hehe, that giant ao and 100,000 sailors fought hard, maybe they would have been dying a long time ago, and let this kid pick up a big credit for nothing!

The phantom innocent person stared, suddenly took a step forward, waved the dust in his hand with both hands, and from his shoulders, two arms actually grew, and his hand pinched the law seal, waving it, but saw the clouds and mist steaming up, very strange.

This is, the clothes on the clothes of an old woman beside him suddenly had no wind and automatically, and suddenly, lightning and thunder suddenly thundered in the clouds and mist.

Phantom Tian glanced at Lu Heng, and said with a smug smile: "Today's face is saintly, only to call the wind and rain with clumsy skills, and wish the Tang Dynasty a long time!" ”

The queen applauded, and the maids in the palace hurriedly responded, cheering and applauding for a while.

The emperor didn't see what was going on for a while, and he didn't respond, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he just observed carefully.

Under the lightning and thunder, the phantom sky suddenly said in the mouth of the dragon and the tiger: "The wind is from the tiger, the cloud is from the dragon, and the wind and clouds are ......."

At this moment, Lu Heng suddenly laughed and walked out from the side.

Phantom Tian was furious: "Who is Xiaoxiao, who dares to interrupt the poor Dao to cast spells?" ”

Lu Hengli ignored him, just clenched his fists and said to the queen with an angry face: "These folk jugglers, but the queen invited them to celebrate the ministers?" ”

"Presumptuous!" The queen was furious, "These are all masters of the Tao, Li Rong, you are too arrogant and arrogant, right?" ”

"Superior?" Lu Heng sneered, and he suddenly slapped his palm without looking back!

Rumble!

The surging internal force erupted, the strong wind howled, and the wind in the hall was fierce!

The clouds and mist dissipated instantly. All the masters in the field were completely defenseless against Lu Heng's sudden palm, and hurriedly used their internal forces to block it.

But Lu Heng's palm used at least eighty percent of the internal force, even if it was a large-scale group attack, the power was not something they could resist.

Suddenly, the masters were overturned to the ground by Lu Heng's palm, and the bottles and cans under their clothes fell to the ground in an instant, a mess!

And the phantom innocent person that Lu Heng focused on was even more spitting blood from his mouth, and he was beaten and hung on the wall, and his robe was torn by the wall lamp bracket, and the mechanism and prosthetic arm inside it were suddenly exposed.

Phantom Heaven was shocked, and hurriedly wanted to tear his clothes to cover it, but at this moment, Lu Heng flicked his fingers, and a finger wind broke through the air, and went straight into Phantom Heaven's left shoulder, he stiffened, and kept the action of covering half of the mechanism and then couldn't move.

Lu Heng slowly withdrew his palm, stared at the queen's eyes and said, "Queen, is this the so-called master?" ”

The whole hall was silent at this time!

The queen's face was blue and red, and it was extremely gloomy.

The emperor was silent with a flash of happiness in his eyes.

"Li Qing," the queen smiled reluctantly, and said with difficulty. "I don't want this palace to be confused by Xiaoxiao...... It's just that the idle master is a learned monk who is proficient in the scriptures, and he is not good at magic spells, he is here to debate the scriptures with you, and you hurt him by mistake, so you have to compensate the master. ”

Lu Heng suddenly realized: "So that's the case!" It's just the queen, this monk looks at it as a minister, and it doesn't seem to have any real skills, please wait a moment, and the minister will expose him. ”

He turned his head and stared at the idle monk who was slumped to the ground and looked at him in horror, golden light burst out in his eyes, and he smiled coldly: "You are also worthy of arguing with me?" ”

Idle was shaken all over his body, and he fainted to death with a mouthful of blood.

Lu Heng turned around, bowed respectfully to the queen, and said, "Queen Qiqi, this monk feels unworthy, and he has fainted to death in shame." ”

Silence!
