Four-sixty-three: Laugh and talk

The old man was taken aback and exclaimed, "Where is the demon clan?"

But he relaxed and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Fei, you lied to me, the demon clan didn't come so early." ”

The fisherman sneered: "Looking at your appearance, it is very clear when the demon clan came?"

He stared at the curtain on the wall, and suddenly stretched out his hand, and with a stabbing sound, he ripped the curtain off, revealing a huge drawing board behind it.

But on the drawing board was a huge map, all blue, as blue as the sea.

In the center of the azure sky, there are thirteen island figures, seven in the north and six in the south, arranged like the number of stars. The seven on the north are golden, while the six on the south are jet black.

The old man Wang Zhongyang glanced at the canvas, turned his head like a hot one, and muttered, "Don't look, don't look." ”

The fisherman was also taken aback, staring at the painting, his eyes were blank, and after a while, he raised his hand tremblingly and said, "It's already ...... The six islands in the south are all gone?" Seeing Wang Zhongyang hesitantly nodding, he suddenly shouted: "You waste......! And those waste snacks on the island, why don't you die? It's only been a few years, and half of the country has been ruined for you, what are you still alive for?"

The old man turned his head, speechless, the fisherman grabbed his clothes, dragged out of the pavilion, came to the hugging building, stretched out his hand again, and pulled down the scroll on the wall, on which was painted a middle-aged Taoist priest, pointing to the sky with one hand and carrying it with the other, with a clear expression and a clear bearing. It's like a fairy in the sky, which makes people feel broken.

The fisherman sneered: "You also know that you are a loser, so you don't dare to face Master Zu." When I was sleeping at home, I also knew how to roll up the portrait of my grandfather. If you really remember which sect you are, why don't you stretch out Wang Ba's neck so that you can fight before you die?" After speaking, he sat down on the ground and cried: "Master Zu, the disciple is not good, and you have ruined your great family business." ”

The old man sat on the ground with a dejected face. Listening to him crying and scolding, he howled endlessly, and suddenly rushed up in anger. Furious: "You cry a fart, as if we are not good, just like you are a good person." If you are so responsible, why don't you rush to the front line? Bo jade is burned. Instead, I ran out to find some reinforcements? For decades, who knows if you asked for help or ran away, although I can't see it, but I still know how to bury my ancestors' family business, you coward, you deserve to talk about me!"

The fisherman said angrily: "Nonsense, I have only been away for a few years, where has it been for a long time? How hard I have worked outside, how do you know? If you had given up the mentality of resting on your laurels earlier." Borrow chickens to lay eggs early, borrow knives to destroy thieves. How did it get to this point?"

The old man said angrily: "Fart, fart, let's take a good place in Penglai Realm, why do you want to invite messy people to come? Is that worthy of the ancestor? Let those miscellaneous people come to help, I'd rather die!"

The two of you say a word, I say a word, and the quarrel is endless. The other group listened to the side, first in the clouds, and later, their brains were clear enough to guess the approximate situation.

It turns out that this fairyland-like spiritual platform is not peaceful.

There are sixty-three islands in the south and north of Penglai Immortal Island, each of which is like a pearl, shining brightly. The people living on the island are all orthodox inherited from Penglai Daxian, which is higher than the inheritance of those monks in the open sea.

But now, half of the thirteen islands have been swallowed up by the demon clan, and the remaining monks are huddled on the island to the north, facing the danger of being beaten at any time and having nowhere to stay.

It is said that in such a situation, the shemales should live on one side, or there are constant conflicts, or maintain a dynamic balance, and the monks are hated by the country and the family, so they should be fierce. But I didn't expect that the Penglai monks were not only small in number, but also couldn't shrink back, almost like the old man Wang Zhongyang, shrunk in the room with his head covered and slept, and he didn't even dare to look at the map. It's a little better, but a fisherman like Fei Zhongqing sneaked out to find foreign aid, and he didn't return for many years.

Seeing that the two brothers were scolding each other, and there were many unbearable shapes, Cheng Jun made a look, and several people slowly withdrew from the hugging building and retreated to the halfway up the mountain.

Far away, Cheng Zheng couldn't help but say: "This is the disciple left by Penglai Daxian?" The demon clan has come to the door of the house, and they are still sleeping with their heads bored, and they can't even say that they are holding on to the defects, isn't it already passable and waiting for death?"

Qin Yue said thoughtfully: "Listening to their tone, it seems that the demon clan is very powerful, but the number of monks is not large, probably resisted a few times, and found that they couldn't stop it, and they couldn't run and run, plus they didn't have any temperament, so they simply didn't do anything, out of sight was clean, and stay at home." ”

Feng Yizhen shook his head and said, "Since you can't bear it yourself, why didn't you find someone to come earlier? Is it because you are afraid of introducing outsiders, but instead drive wolves in the back and tigers in the front? Or do you hold on to the defects and would rather die than leave your ancestral family business?"

Qin Yue smiled: "They want to treat us as tigers." I see that they treat us like fools and inferior, who either don't understand anything, or they just come to take advantage. I'd rather give the territory to the local demon clan than give me a son. It's good, the intimacy between inside and outside is very clear. ”

Cheng Yu sneered: "So, the person who is willing to ask for help is really unscrupulous? If he asked for help, why had he been fishing in the same place for so many years, and he didn't find any help? Did he also come to a willing person to take the bait? The situation in Lingtai was very critical, if he was really worried and walked around, why should he have brought in a lot of help, right? Looking at him like that, it didn't seem to be asking us for help, but like luring us in, giving us a chance to serve, and giving us face. ”

Qin Yue said: "Is this...... On the one hand, it is true that he looks down on us as you say, and on the other hand, he ...... The reason why he was reluctant to go far to ask for help was also because ......"

Zhang Qinglu said: "He's also afraid." ”

Qin Yue glanced at Zhang Qinglu and said, "Well, it's like a flower in the garden, I don't know the outside world, the cats and dogs raised at home will starve to death outside." A gentleman who is too noble will be blind when he encounters a little setback. He may have thought of going outside to ask for help, but when he went out and saw the vast sea, he was really blind. I didn't dare to go far, so I had to sit in the sea and fish year after year, maintaining the status of a master, hoping to wait for foreign help passing by. ”

Zhang Qinglu didn't care about the thorn implied in Qin Yue's last sentence, and said: "Actually, he didn't do nothing, and he didn't blow Penglai Wonderland to the gods, isn't it also to hook us in?" and ......" He remembered that Cheng Jun seemed to have mentioned some treasure or something, maybe the rumors of that treasure were also the means for the fisherman to release to attract people. It's just that Cheng Jun didn't mention it again in this paragraph, and he couldn't say it directly.

Bai Shaoqing kept frowning, and suddenly sneered: "What kind of assistance you ask for, they are all cowards, and this great fairyland is wasted." At the beginning, how many generations of pavilion masters in our Jiuyan Mountain guarded the front line of the boundary gate, fought to the death with demon beasts, shed blood and sacrificed, and no one took a step back. He Penglai Wonderland guards such a large area of mountains and rivers, and he is either asking for help, or he doesn't want to forge ahead, and he eats and waits for death, such a group of people also deserve to live!"

Cheng Jun had never interjected in the evaluation of others, and at this time he suddenly sighed and said, "If the Penglai Immortal Realm is like Jiuyan Mountain, it will not become a big joke in the entire cultivation world." ”

It's really a big joke.

Especially in the later generations, it is not like this life to let them uncover the tip of the iceberg first and slowly get a glimpse of the erosive content. In the previous life, this was a big joke that caused a sensation in the monastic world as soon as it was exposed.

Penglai authentic, what a glorious title?

Looking for the authentic Zhengshuo of Penglai, in fact, in Penglai Taoism has never stopped. It's just that the Wuji Sea is too big and there are too few clues, so the mystery of the previous life has been preserved until five hundred years later.

Five hundred years later, someone inadvertently based on the rumor of the treasure of Lingtai Mountain - just as Zhang Qinglu thought, this rumor was released by Fei Zhongqing himself, but it was too negative that no one heard it hundreds of years later, and when they found it, Fei Zhongqing was still fishing in a small boat.

What is surprising is that Fei Zhongqing has been waiting on a small boat for hundreds of years, and he has not gone back once during this period, I am afraid that he is also afraid that he will see the demise of Penglai Wonderland with his own eyes when he goes back. In essence, he, like Wang Zhongyang, is evading, but in different ways.

And when he brought people in, he was surprised to find that the entire Penglai Realm was occupied by demon beasts, and there was only one monk left, occupying the last attic. When the monks outside came in, they pulled the last monk, probably Wang Zhongyang, out from under the table. I don't know if the rumors are exaggerated, it is said that Wang Zhongyang also peed his pants at that time.

Since then, Penglai Zhengzong has become a funny word, even after the monks repelled the demon clan and occupied Yingzhou from the beginning, this impression has not been reversed. Since then, the ethereal myth of Wonderland has completely vanished, and only a joke after tea and dinner remains.

Although this situation is also a matter of course, and it is also the fate that these Penglai authentic monks deserve, Cheng Jun always feels that this is really a waste of the words 'Penglai authentic', and it is also a waste of a gold-lettered signboard.

He values the Lingtai, in addition to the semi-closed environment of the Lingtai and the outside world, but also the banner of 'authenticity'. In the later Tiantai War, the Penglai Dao system lagged behind other Dao systems in an all-round way, and even the Lingshan Dao system was almost incomparable, not to mention the Kunlun Dao system. The reason for this is that in addition to the looseness of the Penglai Sea area, the fate that has been valued for many years has fallen, which has also dealt a great blow to the Penglai Daotong, making them completely lose their centripetal force.

In this life, Cheng Jun wants to pull up this banner, justifiably use the strength of the entire Dao system to fight against other emperors, that is the true meaning of his conception of a hundred responses, and thousands of disciples cast Tiantai!

The first step is to firmly grasp the place of Penglai in your hands. (To be continued.) )
