Chapter Seventy-Nine, Shang Chenggong

Pei Xuanren said the ten words "Jade Emperor Great Heavenly Venerable, Xuanqiong High God", and Zhang Lu sprayed on the spot - I really made a Jade Emperor!

The Jade Emperor is the supreme god of Taoism in folklore - in fact, the real Taoists, people worship the "Three Qings" - there are many names and they are also very complicated, although Zhang Lu has read a lot of Taoist classics, but most of the long names of those Lala miscellaneous can't remember, so when he told Pei Xuanren about the legends and stories such as Journey to the West, he just mentioned a relatively short "Jade Emperor Great Heavenly Venerable, Xuanqiong High God", which is now the "Heaven" and "Heavenly Emperor" respected in the lower realm.

Unexpectedly, Pei Xuanren mentioned this name to Zhang Jian, Zhang Jian felt that it was very popular, so he used it directly.

The Lord of the Heavenly Immortals, originally "Heavenly Prince", this name is very simple and relatively modest - Gong, can be regarded as both a duke and an honorific title for the elderly, at least Tiangong may not be more noble than the Eastern Prince. But now it has been changed to the Jade Emperor...... Good guy, this step is called the emperor, the immortals are not disgusted? Sure enough, those immortals are a little servile, they didn't create Liu Lei's rebellion for the sake of anti-****......

Pei Xuanren then said to Zhang Lu that now the Jade Emperor has inherited the cause of the Heavenly Emperor and wants to continue to build the Heavenly Court, but he is not very satisfied with the design of Qiu Zhong. As he spoke, his sleeves waved, and a three-dimensional image of the heavenly court immediately appeared in front of Zhang Lu-

The buildings are continuous, towering and majestic, and they look quite majestic, but they are not grand enough. You must know that the heavenly court designed by Qiu Zhong for Liu Lei, its prototype is Qin Shi Huang's Afang Palace, although this palace is grand and unprecedented, I am afraid that there will be no one to come, but after all, it is the architectural model of hundreds of years ago, born in the Han Dynasty, Zhang Jian, who is used to seeing Han-style architecture, will inevitably not be cold.

You must know that with the development of technology, building materials and decoration means have made great progress in hundreds of years, although the emperors of the Han Dynasty are not as extravagant and crazy as Qin Shi Huang, and the Weiyang Palace is not as rich and colorful as the scale, but the decoration is much more colorful. Zhang Jian's meaning, the heavenly court should be far away from the mortal palace, and your light will expand the mortal palace hundreds or thousands of times to the sky, which is really not interesting.

Pei Xuanren said to Zhang Lu, the Jade Emperor knows that you are from the next generation, and your vision is relatively broad, so it is better to ask you to help design a more brilliant heavenly court.

Zhang Lu pondered for a while, and said in his heart that if I build a reinforced concrete building for you, and design a bird's nest, a water cube, and a big pants, it will be dazzling enough, and it may not really meet the aesthetics of you ancients. If it is said to be magnificent, it has to be ancient architecture...... Simply, I'll give you a legendary Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

He has seen the Forbidden City, but the buildings of the Ming and Qing dynasties are more than calm, and they are not elegant, and they only know the red and rhubarb, which is too rigid. Fortunately, I watched a documentary called "Daming Palace" in my previous life, which used computer technology to restore the Tang Dynasty palace, which looked magnificent and elegant, and it was enough in terms of momentum and magnificence. Therefore, based on the court architecture of the Tang Dynasty, mixed with some architectural features of later generations, broke the traditional three-story model at most, and designed a new heavenly court.

Retain the fifth floor and twelve cities, the central buildings are more than ten floors high, and there are multiple towers and que, reaching dozens of floors, drawing a map and handing it over to Pei Xuanren.

Pei Xuanren was overjoyed, and he had to go to heaven to repay the Jade Emperor. Zhang Lu hurriedly grabbed him and said, "What about us? You can't leave us like this."

Pei Xuanren said with a smile: "If you wait a few more days, the Jade Emperor will send Gao Xian to teach you." ”

As a result, it was Pei Xuanren who was finally sent down to guide Zhang Lu, and he took Zhang Lu away from Mount Tai, returned to Zhongding, and continued to practice. As for Bai Que'er and Bu Jue, they also arranged immortals as teachers.

Time is like flowing water, and more than 30 years have passed in a blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye, it has come to the fifth year of Cao Wei Zhengshi - it is also the seventh year of Yanxi of Shu Han and the sixth year of Chiwu of Eastern Wu. This year, Zhang Zhongping of Mi County lived seventy-one years of life, and finally came to the point of dying.

Zhang Zhi was taught by his brother Zhang Lu that day, and as soon as Cao Jun entered Luoyang, he immediately went to defect, starting from a small scribe, and gradually rose in official rank. However, he came from an ordinary background, had limited knowledge, and had no special strengths, all relying on decades of honesty and conscientiousness, and finally mixed with three county magistrates and one county magistrate, stopping at a thousand stones, which was a lot worse than his father. At the age of sixty-four, Zhishi returned to his hometown and seized the position of patriarch by virtue of his name.

The old man often mentioned his elder brother Zhang Lu to his children and grandchildren, saying: "If my brother does not seek immortals, and the imperial court, Jiuqing can also be done." He also said: "Emperor Taizu Wu in the past was once friends with his brother and was known as a genius in the world. ”

Now the old man is over seventy years old, which is considered a long life, and he is waiting to die while lying on the couch. On this day, I fell asleep in a daze, and woke up in a daze, looking around, where did this person go? Even if my children and grandchildren are not there, I should have a concubine to serve me, and I haven't died yet, so I have all run away? It is rumored that the bastard son seems to be having an affair with his mother-in-law, and I am only afraid of causing a scandal, so I simply leave it behind--is it possible that the rumors are true? But you don't have to be so anxious, it's not too late to hook up when I die, I can have a few more days!

Just as he dared to be indignant, he suddenly saw a person approaching the bed. Zhang Zhi stretched out his finger and pointed to his mouth: "Drink the water to me." Immediately, I felt a stream of nectar poured into my mouth, which was extremely sweet, and as soon as I swallowed it, my organs became clear, and my mind became clear. So he looked closely, and it was neither a concubine nor a servant who was serving him water, but a young man, dressed in a long, narrow-sleeved robe, and his beard black as lacquer dyeβ€”who was this?

I saw the young man come closer and laughed in a low voice: "Zhongping, do you still know me?"

Zhang Zhi was suddenly startled, and suddenly reached out and grabbed the man's sleeve: "Brother, don't become an immortal?!"

It turned out that this young man was not an outsider, but his brother Earl Zhang Lu. Zhang Zhixin said I'm dying, why are you still exactly the same as a few decades ago, are you really successful in cultivating and have become immortals?!

Zhang Lu smiled slightly: "I will ascend to the immortal, so I will look at you." ”

He cultivated for more than 30 years under the guidance of Pei Xuanren, and finally broke through, reached the highest level of "Void", and was about to soar to the heavenly realm. Before leaving, I decided to see if my brother was dead or not, and how he was doing.

Cultivating immortals should have cut off the worldly relationship, but it was really not as ruthless as mortals thought. The so-called ascension means to leave the mortal world and ascend to the heavenly world, but it is not impossible to turn back once you go, and the immortals can go down to the earth at any time to take care of their family members and relatives - is it necessary to really completely sever the relationship? Just because you are nostalgic for family affection, you are reluctant to go far away - even if it is not gone forever - then the heart of the Taoist is not sincere, and you will have a knot in your heart, which will slow down the progress. Zhang Lu doesn't care about this, first, the brotherhood between him and Zhang Zhi is indifferent, and secondly, I'm leaving, if I take a look at it again, can I instantly go back to the original form of the earth immortal?

So he came, and the two brothers were relatively embarrassed. Zhang Zhi said, brother, although you left me to cultivate immortals, I have never forgotten you, you see, there is still a tablet for you on this case. Zhang Lu turned his head to take a look, and saw that the tablet read: "The first brother has become a public servant." ”

Zhang Zhi explained, saying that the title of "Shangchenggong" was rewarded by Emperor Gaozu Wen, and it is said that when Emperor Wen was under the knee of Emperor Taizu Wu in the past, he had the honor to see you and admired the style, so he gave this title after ascending the throne. Zhang Luxin said that I saw Cao Cao a few times, but what about Cao Pi and his children? Why didn't I have an impression......

Zhang Zhi also wanted to call his children and grandchildren to come and visit, but Zhang Lu didn't plan to entangle more, so he waved his hand and said that it was not necessary. turned around to leave, suddenly remembered something again, turned his head to Zhang Zhi and said: "At the age of fifty, the world is in chaos, and Henan is unlivable." When Dongwu is settled, the younger brother's family should move to Jiankang...... Jianye can avoid its troubles. Remember, remember. ”

As he spoke, he went out the door. Zhang Zhi looked at it from afar, and saw that as soon as his brother came out of the house, it was as if he was stepping on an invisible staircase, step by step, step by step, and soon he was above the eaves and could not be seenβ€”and then there was an exclamation from the servants in the courtyard.

In fact, there is no flying spell in this world at all, only the so-called "Liezi Wind Resisting Technique", which is like a dead leaf, rising with the wind, swaying up and down - if the wind does not blow at all, this spell is useless, and if the wind blows, the caster himself does not know where he can fly......

Therefore, Zhang Lu is like climbing a ladder, stepping into the air, not flying, but completing the final transformation of his body. The realm of "voidness" is the reality of all things in the mortal world, and the cultivator will transform into nothingness, no longer the same as mortal things, and will no longer be bound by the laws of the mortal world, cause and effect. Even if he was hidden in the mountains and did not accept foreign objects, he still belonged to the mortal world after all, just like a lonely genius student, who usually did not listen to the teacher's lectures and did not contact his classmates, and he ******** study alone, but after all, he was still in this grade and in this class.

But when you become a heavenly immortal, it is different, and the immortal can also stay in the mortal world for a long time - for example, Liu Lei can no longer go to heaven after that, but can only be with the mortal cat. You've already finished all your coursework this year, but because of the admission system, you can't skip a grade immediately, but it's just one or two levels away, if you really have a doctor's level, but you're still in elementary school, no matter how you calm down, no matter how you disguise, you will inevitably be out of place with those little kids, and you will naturally be excluded.

In that case, why not go?

Every time Zhang Lu climbed upward, his physical transformation became more profound, and the farther away he was from the mortal world. In the eyes of the servants of the Zhang family in the courtyard, they saw a young man step by step towards the void, getting higher and higher, when a normal person in front of him gradually shrank to the size of a fist because of the distance, suddenly, there was no trace - for Zhang Lu, this is the real ascension.

What is the "Broken Void"? That is to open a passage to another world, from now on to be free to move and go without hindrance. If you don't become an immortal, without going through this physical and mental refinement, mortals can't go to the heavenly realm - maybe you can in the past, but since Emperor Yao's "Jedi Heavenly Pass", he has permanently lost this heavy possibility.

Of course, it is not without exceptions, for example, through the "heavenly abyss" on that isolated island overseas...... However, Tai Sui blocked the abyss, if he didn't block it, maybe only Yu Ji that day, who had become an earth immortal, could climb away. There is also a possibility that he was taken to the heavens by the immortals, but he will not be able to survive in the heavens for a long time. So at that time, Liu Lei said, this kid has not yet become an immortal, even if he is really a person who destroys evil, what use can you bring it with you now?

Zhang Lu really became an immortal this time, without the guidance of immortals, he naturally ascended to the sky, and the reason why his figure suddenly disappeared was precisely because he entered the passage between the two worlds of immortals and mortals, and the immortals could come and go freely. He only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and when he looked at it again, he was already above a floating cloud, and then the words came from in front of him: "Who trespassed into the heavenly court?!"

Zhang Lu looked fixedly, but there was no one in sight, so he had to arch his hand: "Zhang Lu, the first time he has entered the fairy world, please guide." ”

The voice on the other side laughed "hehe", and then an immortal revealed his figure: "You are here, I will stay for a long time." ”

Zhang Lu took a look, acquaintance, and hurriedly waved slightly: "I've seen Nanhua Immortal Master." ”

That immortal is not him, it is Nanhua Immortal Yu Ji is also, he smiled and approached instantly, and grabbed Zhang Lu's wrist: "Come, come, come, follow me to Emperor Yuyu." ”

The corners of Zhang Lu's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in his heart that even the word "confession" came out - it seems that in just a few decades, Zhang Tingchen has really sat firmly in the heavenly court!

Attached: "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Fangshu": "Those who become public are also from Mi County." He didn't return it for a long time at the beginning, and then he returned and said to his family: 'I have become immortal.' 'I left my home. The family saw that his steps were a little higher, but there was no cloud for a long time. ”
