Chapter Ninety-Five: Ascension
The old man in front of him was very tall, so tall that the spots of light that fell on him obliquely through the pear blossom sacred tree, and it was difficult to see his half-hanging face when he looked up, like a celestial.
And from the words that came out of his mouth, people only heard the tremors of the aftermath in their ears, and they knew the weight of them.
Zhiying, Qi Jie and the others showed unbelievable and ugly expressions on their faces. It was a moment of frustration, disappointment and loss. It was like stepping on the void, and the heart sank like this.
All the hustle and bustle outside is meaningless in front of the immediate nirvana.
They didn't stand a chance. When the dust settled, Kings Mountain opened again a few years later, but this time only one lucky person would enter. That is the "Liu Fu" in front of him, this Daye Yang Ze!
Nirvana looked at "Gillian" and nodded slightly, "Girl, please go up the mountain with me." ”
As he spoke, Nirvana crossed the sacred tree and began to step up from a path that winds behind the pear blossom sacred tree to the top of the mountain.
Yang Ze paused for a moment, at this moment, the birth of the first under the tree, there were no fireworks, no noisy cheers, and even these cultivators around him who were compared to him, except for a few people like Han Xue, no one would express their blessings to themselves. And in his heart, there is also a mixture of excitement and worry, which is extremely complicated.
The excitement is that he will finally be able to successfully climb the Mount of Kings head-on, and perhaps he will meet the two eldest brothers who are trapped there and save them again. He actually didn't have much awareness of what he would usher in, who had now become the No. 1 in the Tang Dynasty. However, he was worried that he had only recently stolen into Liwang Mountain through the back mountain and forged a sword with the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi that Liwang Mountain had gathered for hundreds of years, which could be described as a "feat", but I believe that for Liwang Mountain, it was by no means an interesting thing.
So when I first heard Elder Nirvana's implicit meaning "We have waited for you", I was actually a little shocked. Because through the other party's gaze, Yang Ze felt that he had been partially seen through. It's like the illusion of the Pear Blossom Divine Tree, pointing straight to the heart, no matter what mask you wear, it will appear.
Nirvana was still walking on the mountain path ahead, his tall figure still covered by the sun. didn't seem to be worried about whether Yang Ze was keeping up at all, and didn't look back at him.
Seeing the majestic palace of the kings on the top of the mountain, Yang Ze gritted his teeth and thought about it. Then he stepped up to catch up.
Xuanyuan Cod's concern was that she was unsure of the illusion process created by the Divine Tree. Has this old guy been watching everything that happened in the illusion world? So she blushed so much that her ears were smeared at this time, and she wanted to turn around and leave, regardless of this Wang Mountain, regardless of Yang Ze, or even anyone, to stay alone in the most secluded place for two days. But at this time, I still gritted my teeth. Walking up the mountain with Yang Ze.
Under the sacred tree, there was only a group of people who had not been able to reach this place, but who had stayed here for the time being.
The petals of the Pear Blossom Sacred Tree are still falling, as if there is no end for thousands of years, but the broken petals at this time are different from those when climbing, there is no murderous aura, but they fall gently with the light, which is very beautiful.
Watching Nirvana, Yang Ze. The figure of Xuanyuan Cod gradually disappeared on the winding path, and the bottom of everyone's hearts at this time was filled with all kinds of indescribable complexities.
Someone tried to step over the sacred tree and chase after the three of them, but finally stopped the ridiculous move, bowed to everyone present, and turned back and walked down the mountain.
Some people stayed, looking through the mountainside with great bitterness, looking at the sea of people at the bottom of the mountain. There was a commotion from afar, through the mountain fog. I may think that I will look very uncomfortable in the eyes and discussions of many people when I go down the mountain, and I may also usher in the loss of my own faction. So they are not in a hurry to go down the mountain, preferring to stay here for a while.
"Impossible, impossible," the county lord muttered to himself, his eyes furrowed, as if he was sorting out why the current result had been formed.
Seeing Yang Zexuanyuan Cod's figure disappear, Han Xue, who was also stunned, turned her head, looked at Zhiying, and said, "His Royal Highness the County Lord should be very distressed right now." ”
As if poking at some sore spot, Zhiying raised her eyebrows and was angry, "Why should I be distressed?"
"Because before in the Star Picking Tower, the county lord thought that he was just a springboard for suppression, a pawn used to fight you and your mother's enemies, but you didn't expect that not everyone is a pawn in your hands that can be arranged at will. You have kicked the iron plate, and even the guards of a small country are now gradually pushed to the opposite side by you, and have become the great enemy that you have begun to fear. ”
Han Xue shook her head, "I suddenly have some hope to know, when your eldest princess mother knows all this, will she regret her arrogance at the beginning?"
Zhiying suddenly felt that in the face of this sentence, how much fire was in her heart, at this time she was a little discouraged, raised her eyebrows for a while, and said coldly, "I believe that anyone has a price, and people living in the world should have their expectations and bottom line. Eligibility to talk to us. It is also necessary to understand some rules, Yang Ze is not stupid, as long as a person is not stupid, he should have some mind or city, and he should not choose to erect huge obstacles for his future for some small setbacks in the past. In this way, he is not impossible to be co-opted. At worst, at least it will not be our enemy. ”
Although she didn't have a good impression of the county lord at all, Han Xue had to admit that what she said was very reasonable, stepping on this path and stepping into that palace city had already doomed Yang Ze to be extraordinary from now on. He will have some kind of identity, which in turn will lead him to think more about things, such as even choosing to accept the price offered by Princess Celestia. Will he do that?
Looking at Yang Ze's back, Han Xue suddenly felt that they were a little far apart.
Everyone has a dream of the Tang Dynasty.
At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty in the millennium, it was actually just a variety of frontier people on the mainland, and the pioneers traced back to the empire established by the southerners far from their homeland.
Rumors of the richness and even hope of the empire have spread all over the continent to this day.
Silk merchants preached the weaving and cloth skills of the Tang Dynasty, and the major ceramic merchants of the Jin Kingdom would take the porcelain inkstone from the Tang Dynasty as the treasure of the town hall every year, and the practitioners who returned from the Tang Dynasty for further study showed off their newly learned skills from the Tang Dynasty. Those businessmen who looked at the Tang Dynasty from afar and admired the Tang Dynasty would think that when they went to the Tang Dynasty, they would pick up gold and silver everywhere and open shops all over the mainland. The craftsman will feel that under the influence of countless superb works of art inherited from the Tang Dynasty, he has realized and gained, and his skills are advancing day by day. The man who holds his wife in the bed at night will imagine that it is in the Tang Dynasty. You can find a fairy ten times more beautiful than in your arms.
People who look forward to the Tang Dynasty fantasize that if they are in the Tang Dynasty, they will have endless opportunities to make a fortune and show their strength. This is the dream of the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty had 30 states and 180 counties. The people of the prefecture and county are familiar with every scenic spot in the imperial capital Shengjing City, and they know the signature dishes of every famous restaurant in Shengjing. Because Shengjing is the center of the empire, the people of the prefecture and county, even those men who have families and rooms and big bellies, have always fantasized that if they are still young, the young man will be vigorous and carry his bags to the gate of Shengjing City, and from then on practice governing the country and do a great career that belongs to men. For people to praise and praise.
Although in fact, this ordinary man wants to make money to support his family, gets up early and is greedy for darkness, doing the work of the most ordinary people, and is so tired that he goes home like a dog and falls asleep. But when they wake up, these men still start looking forward to a new day. This is the dream of the Tang Dynasty.
Everyone has a dream of the Tang Dynasty, so even the people of Shengjing City look up to the cultivator's extraordinary strength, and envy the excitement of one day becoming a blockbuster.
So Futenin is more than this kind of activity. That's why it's so popular. Even more than all the poetry parties, tea parties, celebrity gatherings, and examination parties in the empire. Because there is absolutely no kind of gathering that can have such a profound impact. In this way, it can be in line with people's deepest wishes.
When a cultivator of a faction overcomes a rival around him or even some miracles after a lot of screening, and finally wins, people will cheer for such a process, get excited, and cry out from the heart. Naturally, it is impossible for ordinary people to set foot in the cultivation ground, so the cultivators who win in Futenin Temple. To a large extent, it represents their dreams, their unattainable desire to make a splash in the imperial capital.
Not to mention, such a wish was actually fulfilled by someone they didn't know before.
"Liu Fu, who is this Liu Fu?"
"I don't know, it's said to be from Guangrokuji Temple. ”
"What kind of place is Guanglu Temple?"
"I don't know"
Hearing the conversation of the people around them, the people of Guanglu Temple, who were crowded in a small corner by the restless crowd, had long mouths, but they couldn't make any sound.
"Guanglu Temple, I've only heard of Guangfo Temple. It's a small sect, could it be that the registration is wrong?"
Guanglu Temple is us! Guanglu Temple is us!
Eyes wide open. The people of Guanglu Temple were speechless.
"Guanglu Temple, very familiar. It seems to be an official office, in South Avenue. ”
Guanglu Temple is us! Guanglu Temple is us!
At this time, a team of Sheng Tang officials dressed in official uniforms pushed aside the crowd and came to everyone. One of the officials at the head said in a loud voice, "Excuse me, are the people in Guanglu Temple available?"
Many officials only saw someone in the crowd with a mouth, but they didn't seem to know what to say, so they just raised their hands in the end. Raising her hand was the sixth aunt of the female clerk of Guanglu Temple. In the past, she was like a frightened bird, only trembling raised her hands, and a pair of eyes looked at the comer.
After confirming the location of the people in Guanglu Temple, the official obviously looked calm, and came to everyone, his tone was extremely polite, "May I ask who is Lord Yin Cheng in the temple?"
Lin Weichu looked at the suddenly silent surroundings, and felt unprecedented nervousness, but forcibly suppressed the excitement and nervousness, and with his current identity as Yin Cheng, he straightened his sleeves, and in the dumbfounded eyes around him, he took a step forward and saluted, "Below is Yin Cheng Lin Weichu of Guanglu Temple." ”
The official immediately looked radiant, held his hand and said, "I am Wang Zhongzhi of the Tang Dynasty's Wei Department, and I will bring the orders of Lord Shangshu today, you Guanglu Temple has built this great achievement, it is gratifying to congratulate, Lord Shangshu has written to His Majesty, and the Guanglu Temple is specially sealed as the Imperial Guanglu Senate, which belongs to the first compound under the rule of the Wei Department, and we can be regarded as officials of the same door in the future, and we need to take care of it a lot."
Before Lin Weichu could react, another group of officials immediately came to the other side, but the dress of the official uniform was very different from that of the Wei Department, and Lin Weichu, who was the leader, knew him, and he was also his superior in the empire, Li Ya, the lord of Honglu Temple. Li Ya was in charge of the diplomatic missions of the countries under the rule of Honglu Temple, and Guanglu Temple was also under his rule. Of course, on weekdays, most of the embassies of small countries like Guanglu Temple will not be taken seriously.
Seeing Wang Zhongzhi, Li Ya suddenly quickened his pace and hurriedly walked over, furious, "When did the Wei Department be so shameless, and ran to our Honglu Temple to rob people!" and showed an extremely bright smile to Lin Weichu, "Xiaolin, you don't have to be embarrassed, Lord Li is in charge of you." After consideration, Lord Hongguan of Honglu Temple, the current place of your Guanglu Temple is too small, how can you reflect the face of the Great Temple of the Pavilion in the future Lord Hongguan specially gave the Westward Pavilion to you Guanglu Temple, since the Westward Pavilion was given, then the level of Guanglu Temple under the rule of Honglu Temple has also been upgraded to the level of the Pavilion accordingly, and in the future, you and I will be equal colleagues!"
The happiness of "Xingguan" came too suddenly, and the people of Guanglu Temple didn't have time to react. The hotel is the highest level of foreign embassies in the Tang Dynasty, second only to Honglu Temple, and is the highest standard for the importance of a country in the Tang Dynasty. If the record is not bad, since the establishment of the embassy system, the Tang Dynasty has never given this title to the diplomatic embassy of any country. With the title of the pavilion, you will be able to recruit the number of military attaches second only to the Imperial Honglu Temple, and have the largest group of civil servants, which is a large department with thousands of people, and the Guanglu Temple, which is now only a hundred people, is completely two levels. Most importantly, it represents a certain respect that the empire has for the country to which it belongs.
And Lin Weichu, Yin Cheng, will also be promoted to Xia Qing accordingly, on an equal footing with Li Ya. That is to say, the diplomatic halls of various countries that once looked down on Guanglu Temple, now facing Daye Guanglu Temple, it can be said that they all bowed their heads, and many Yin Cheng, who usually have a lot of oil and water, saw Lin Weichu, and had to lower their eyebrows and call "Lord Lin!"
This is precisely because the "Liu Fu" who set foot on the Mountain of Kings is a native of Daye, and the status of Daye's country has also made a substantial and significant leap in the empire!
"How can this be done!" Seeing Lin Weichu's hesitation, Wang Zhongzhi immediately shouted out, "Since Guanglu Temple has participated in the Putian Academy Competition, it can also be regarded as a cultivation department, and I am in charge of all the cultivation affairs of the empire. Guanglu Temple, no, the Guanglu Senate, of course, will be merged into my Wei Division, and it will no longer be under the jurisdiction of your Honglu Temple!"
Guanglu Temple was originally under the jurisdiction of my Honglu Temple, and it belonged to a diplomatic organization. You want to snatch it, it's just to give more light to the Wei Division, where do you get the legal basis?" Li Ya's face turned red.
Wang Zhongzhi was bruised, and he clenched his fists in vain, "Lord Shangshu is naturally handing over an official document to the Holy Lord to wait for special approval of this matter!
"Fart!
"You are a dictatorship! It is only natural that the Ministry of Wisdom is in charge of the worldly affairs of the empire."
"Get out!"
"Enough!
In front of the public, the officials of the two major departments were gearing up, their eyes were fierce, and they had the consciousness of fighting with each other to break the net
