The Demon Swallows the Dragon (II) Chapter 94 Flying Boat

This supreme ruler of the mortal world, at this moment, is like smoke, reunited outside the Taiji Palace, the night is late, and the entire palace is like a creeping lion that has not yet woken up. After putting his hands on his back, the Human Emperor Li Sheng took a few steps forward, turned around and looked at the Taiji Palace Gate with the prohibition, smiled, raised his hand and randomly punched out a few spell talismans engraved on it to strengthen the prohibition.

The voice that only Li Sheng could hear came from the depths of the Taiji Palace, it was the roar and insult of the Empress Dowager Xiande, terrifying and ugly. Li Sheng just didn't hear everything, and after reinforcing the mountain and water ban outside the palace gate, making the person inside unhappy, Li Sheng was in a quite comfortable mood at the moment.

Leaving here, Li Sheng walked alone on the palace road, thinking in his heart about the plan and good plan given to him by the Empress Dowager Fang Caixiande. probably felt that he still hadn't convinced himself at the moment, and then he went directly to the Central Purple Qi Palace, and summoned Shang Jiuxi on the way with the method of divine recitation and sound transmission.

The chief of the interior, who was now sitting on the palace wall and guarding the emperor's bedroom behind him, got up and turned into clouds and smoke, blending into the night.

Shang Jiuxi's figure gathered outside the Purple Qi Palace, holding the dust whisk in his left hand, his body was slightly rickety as usual, and he shouted outside the door: "Old slave see Your Majesty!" After that, Li Sheng's voice came from the hall, "Come in."

Shang Jiuxi opened the door of the hall at this time, entered respectfully, slowly turned around and closed the door, slowly came to the center of the main hall, and asked, "The old slave has seen Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty has to say when he comes to find the old slave so late." ”

Li Sheng said: "Jiuxi, I have a copy of the method of surviving this first-year catastrophe here, I want you to help me take a look at it and give some advice." ”

Gonggong Shang hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "It is the duty of a slave to help Your Majesty share your worries." ”

Li Sheng snorted, the previous note that was crushed by him in the Taiji Palace was restored by him again in a mysterious way, and the note was handed out and fell lightly into Shang Jiuxi's already stretched out palm.

For Shang Jiuxi, the chief of the inner family who has been serving him since he ascended the throne, Li Sheng has great trust in him.

Shang Jiuxi bent his left arm to hold the dust, looked at the contents of the note with his free hands, his face changed more and more, and finally handed the note back to the dragon case, and asked, "What is Your Majesty going to do?" Do you want to do this, or do you not want to do this. ”

Li Sheng exhaled and said, "It's a dilemma." ”

Shang Jiuxi said: "The old slave knows what His Majesty's concerns are, on the one hand, the country and the people's safety, and on the other hand, the trust of thousands of years old friends, in other words, anyone will be as unpredictable as Your Majesty." ”

Li Sheng said: "So, I came to ask you, I want to hear your opinion." ”

Shang Jiuxi knelt directly on his knees and arched his hand: "Since Your Majesty has this question, as a slave, you should try your best to share your Majesty's worries, then the old slave dares to ask here, and I hope Your Majesty will punish him lightly." ”

Glancing at Shang Jiuxi, who was prostrate on the ground, Li Sheng said: "There is no one else here today, I forgive you for your innocence, and speak boldly." ”

Shang Jiuxi, who had received the promise of the words of heaven, was straightforward and asked, "The old slave has the courage to ask, what does Your Majesty do to me about this first-year calamity?"

Li Shengjian frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, and said: "Fifty percent sure." ”

Shang Jiuxi listened to the words and continued: "If you are only fifty percent sure, then the old slave dares to ask again, in the eyes of Your Majesty, is it important that the people of the Tang Dynasty still have a thousand years or even ten thousand years of society, or is it important to have old friends?"

Shang Jiuxi seemed to be different at the moment, his whole person became sharp, and he always hit the nail on the head when he asked. Li Sheng did not pause, and immediately replied to him, "Of course, the people of the Tang Dynasty and the society of the Tang Dynasty are more important. ”

Shang Jiuxi said: "In this case, the strategy on the note should be a good policy, but it is still a good policy, because Your Majesty, your old friend is not ordinary, but compared to this calamity, I hope Your Majesty will treat it carefully." ”

Li Sheng thought about it, and just wanted to say that however, how could the old friendship of thousands of years be said and ignored, but before the second half of the sentence could be spoken, he was interrupted by Shang Jiuxi's abruptly raised voice, "Your Majesty! A thousand years ago, you were still my prince of the Tang Dynasty, and all the rivers and mountains were supported by the old Tang Emperor, as long as the prince read poetry and books, make friends with wise men, and prepare for the future succession to the throne, but now you are no longer the prince, and now you are my Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty! Shang Jiuxi's voice was high, different from the past, and after saying these words, it seemed that his whole person had made his whole person stronger, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead.

He was also afraid of saying these words, he was afraid of His Majesty's moodiness, he was afraid that His Majesty would not listen to him, and he would think that what he said had angered him, and he would take action in an instant, and the gains would outweigh the losses if he corrected the Fa on the spot. But fortunately, Li Sheng did not do this, but after listening to this, the whole person fell into contemplation, and he was also considering in his heart, which is more important than the friendship and the Jiangshan Society, if he was still the prince of a thousand years ago, although he could hesitate, maybe it was possible to choose the former if he was uncomfortable, but now it is different, he is no longer Li Sheng, the Great Wall cultivator, and now he is Li Sheng, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!

In the end, Li Sheng no longer hesitated, and immediately said: "Shang Jiuxi listens to the order!" The latter still knelt on the ground, but her face became more and more ruddy, and her mood was also good, she thought that His Majesty had finally grown up, and then put her hands in front of her head and said in a loud voice,

"The old slave obeys. ”

............

Time is like a stream, slowly flowing into the long river of time, and the touch of fish belly white in the eastern sky also jumped out of sight, slowly rising into the air, illuminating the world.

Shang Jiuxi carried the Tang Emperor's holy decree out of the palace overnight, quickly whipped his horse, all the way to the golden light, shrunk the mountains and rivers, and went straight to a certain ferry outside Chang'an City. The distance from Zhongzhou to Qingzhou Sanqing Mountain is already a cross-continent range, and the average monk is too slow to resist the wind, so he is afraid of delaying the process, so he simply goes to the ferry to take a flying boat to the destination he wants to go.

To say that Shang Jiuxi is also lucky and lucky, not long after arriving at the nameless ferry, there was a huge boat slowly coming from the clouds and mist on the river, and he needed to slow down when he approached the ferry to see if there was anyone on the boat. But the flying boat is not something that ordinary people can get on if they want to.

When the flying boat got closer, Shang Jiuxi immediately took out a talisman handed over to him by Li Sheng, and recited the magic formula, the talisman turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated, and the golden light flashed under his feet and disappeared on the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already on the deck of the flying boat. Shang Jiuxi looked around after landing, and sighed, this is not the official Feizhou used by my Datang, then it is easy to say, so he directly called the owner of the ship with his heart, at this time, the sky had just dawned, and most of the people on the boat were in the cabin rooms, and the plywood was empty. The next moment, an old man wearing an official robe, an old pedant, appeared on Class A. Seeing the person in front of him, he also said hello, Shang Jiuxi returned the salute with a fist, and then asked, "What is the destination of the flying boat here?"

The owner of the boat replied truthfully: "This boat starts from Yangzhou and sails all the way to the direction of the Great Wall of its destination. ”

Shang Jiuxi asked again: "Can you pass through Qingzhou?"

The old pedantic shipowner thought for a moment, and then said, "Qingzhou, that's what you need to pass through, I don't know what my father-in-law is asking for." ”

Shang Jiuxi nodded, he knew the rules of the flying boat, the route they sailed was set in the morning, turned into a talisman engraved on the hull, the flying boat only needs to sail along the guide line on the talisman, this time through Qingzhou is okay, if he does not pass through Qingzhou, he still has the Tang Emperor Holy Purpose in hand and has to get off the boat and wait for the flying boat that passes through the Qingzhou ferry again.

Shang Jiuxi directly took out the holy decree, the old scholar looked at it, and with a sigh, he knelt on the ground, and the holy decree in Shang Jiuxi's hand did not unfold, but said: "I have the will of the emperor, and I must rush to Qingzhou to convey the will, and the shipowner can have a way to speed up." Shang Jiuxi said as he lifted the old pedantic shipowner up.

The old pedant said: "Since it is for His Majesty, the old minister will naturally do his best, and my father-in-law will look at it." After speaking, he disappeared, Shang Jiuxi naturally knew what he was doing, when he built the flying boat in the early years, the word flying was very exquisite, it is said that at that time, in addition to the talisman engraved on the surface of the hull, even the ship also had this immortal soldier, which could make the flying boat travel thousands of miles in an instant when necessary, shuttling through the void. However, not every official flying boat of the Tang Dynasty has it, since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the number of flying boats has increased year by year, and now there are as many as nine, and only half of them have immortal soldiers, Shang Jiuxi took this flying boat at this time has immortal soldiers is the latest, and it is also to see the hard work of contemporary ship owners, and their lives are dedicated to the flying boat, and finally the Tang Emperor ordered that the last immortal soldier that took many years to refine was placed in it, and Shang Jiuxi also knew.

In the end, Shang Jiuxi turned around and stood on the deck, facing the endless river basin, the flying boat slowly trembled under his feet, and the next moment a golden beam of light was emitted from the cabin of the flying boat, hitting the place in front of the flying boat, the beam crashed into the void, opened a colorful portal, and finally the ship moved, disappeared into the portal, and shuttled through the void.

——————

In the palace, a middle-aged man walked out of the central purple qi hall, and after appearing, he stopped for a long time, and finally moved under his feet, shrunk the land of mountains and rivers and continents, and walked a few steps like a leisurely stroll, and then came to the outer heaven and the outer world outside the nine continents.

The middle-aged man was wearing a black gold-rimmed robe, and the so-called Outer Heaven was a Cave Heaven Blessed Land built in the middle void between the human world and the outside of the Nine Continents, but this may be the largest Cave Heaven Blessed Land in the world.

I saw that the middle-aged man was behind his hands, and he recited the Fajue, and the true qi of the Emperor Road around his body surged, turning into a meteorological streamline, slowly drawing a void portal, and then stepping in, the portal slowly disappeared.

After Li Sheng entered the outer heavens, what caught his eye was a majestic mountain peak like Tongtian, there was no brilliant building at the foot of the mountain, almost all of them were a village leaning on a village, and each village had a few reading schools, in fact, it was a village, but the scale was large, no less than an ordinary town, the size of several villages together could already be compared to the city on earth, there were many, many villages here, all built around the high mountain that reached the sky.

Li Sheng didn't have the leisure nature at the moment, went to the village at the foot of the mountain to feel the local people, and stepped out again, going straight to the top of the towering mountain that disappeared into the sky.
