Chapter 167: Mutual Interests
Hearing Liang Tao's words, Zhao Xiao unconsciously touched the mustache on the side of his mouth, compared to Liang Tao, who had eagle eyebrows and falcon eyes and jade trees in the wind, he looked even older than him.
"But you're still not complete." Liang Tao flicked his fingers, and held a purple qi cloud seal in his palm: "What I threw everywhere is not an ordinary talisman seal. ”
Zhao Huang silently used Yingxuan's Jingshu, stared at the purple qi cloud seal for a moment, and suddenly realized: "This is the true form of the talisman seal of the cave general?" ”
"Not bad." Liang Tao nodded.
The immortal officials and generals in the cave heaven are not only the disciples and descendants who have been guided by the immortal family, but also the heroic spirit spirits who have been refined and improved, but these belong to a minority after all, and more of them are formed by the immortal spirit and clear qi according to the law of the cave.
Among the many immortal scriptures, it will be said that there are so many true saints in the cave, Zhao Huang was puzzled at first, thinking that where have so many immortals ascended throughout the ages?
Later, as his cultivation deepened, he gradually understood that the Thousand True Saints, Immortal Officials, Immortal Generals, Heavenly Soldiers and Divine Officials in the Cave Heaven, and even the Flying Dragons, Luanfeng, and Rare Birds and Beasts were probably formed by the condensation of the immortal spirit in the Cave Heaven.
These things are by no means the flow of illusions, Ling Xiao once said that the immortal family that can open up the cave is all merit and creation, and all things in the cave are endless, even if it is a thousand true saints with pure qi, it is also a complete spiritual wisdom.
After the fall of Qingya Zhenjun, most of the fairyland collapsed, and Liang Tao took over the general control of the cave sky, and naturally took over a group of cave generals. According to Hengbi Gong, Liang Tao called these cave generals like slaves, cows and horses, making them contaminated with earthly turbidity and ignorance of their true spirits.
But looking back now, Liang Tao is afraid that he deliberately let the Dongtian generals be contaminated with turbidity, and after the true spirit is ignorant, it will naturally be restored to the true form of the talisman seal, and the body will no longer be clear.
Liang Tao threw the true forms of many cave generals into the pure and abundant places in Huaxu Kingdom, and while maintaining the talisman seals, he could also use this to deduce the mountains and rivers and the leylines, transform them into the true shape of the leylines, and re-cultivate the earth.
It's just that the drawbacks of this method, as Zhao Huang said before, it takes too long a time, and how can the earth god be able to give birth to rebirth for decades?
"It's no wonder that when Xingluo County, the Chongxuan Pavilion will write to the imperial court and let a Dharma Immortal be crowned as a god of the earth." Zhao Yan said: "You have planned to do this from the beginning, and compared to the original ghosts and spirits in various places, it is more secure and reliable for your own law generals to receive fiefs. ”
"Hengbi was a lay disciple of Qingya Immortal Ancestor in his early years." Liang Tao smiled slightly and said: "He couldn't cultivate, and later fought in all directions as a general, but unfortunately died under siege by the rebels. A spirit wanders on the battlefield, and the Qingya Immortal Ancestor can't bear it, so he will be transformed into a quality and led him up. Hengbi was taught and trained under the Immortal Ancestor Throne, and repeatedly helped the children of future generations in the lower realm, accumulating merit and transferring, so he was more stubborn than other immortal officials and generals. ”
Zhao Xiao couldn't help frowning, he admired Hengbi Gong's enthusiasm for caring for students, Liang Tao arranged such a Dharma Immortal General to Liang Shuo, which was originally ill-intentioned, and now he was contemptuous of him in words, which made Zhao Huang quite unhappy.
To put it mildly, even if it is his own watchdog, who has been loyal and obedient for many years, he should not be bullied repeatedly. What's more, Hengbi Gong is a disciple of Qingya Zhenjun, and he can be regarded as Liang Tao's elder according to his seniority, how can he be so disrespectful?
"What? Looking at your expression, it seems that you are not very happy? Liang Tao said: "What's wrong with me doing this kind of thing with my own Fa Gong Immortal? ”
Zhao Xiao was afraid of being noticed by Liang Tao, so he turned to say: "I want to open the altar to practice the law, collect the plague and cure the poison, you will not stop it, right?" ”
"Do you know the source of this plague?" Liang Tao asked.
"It should be the plague evil qi launched by the Ten Witches of the Jiuli Kingdom." Zhao Xiao said: "The miasma is dense in the mountains and forests in the south of Kunlun Continent, and the low-lying land is damp and turbid, which is easy to breed evil qi and plague. I read the notes of my predecessors, and I know that there are several places in the southern soil, where it is difficult for mortals to thrive, but they are regarded as holy places by some witches, and the celebrant has also found traces of great demons haunting. The Tianxia Dynasty sent men to the city several times in an attempt to reclaim Daze, but in vain for many years. ”
Liang Tao said: "This plague evil spirit comes from the red plague king of Pond Ze, there was a great epidemic in the south of the bear country more than 70 years ago, and it should also be the handiwork of the red plague king, so that the local people still have the custom of burning calamus to send the plague god." ”
"What plague god? But evil! Zhao Xiao snorted coldly.
"Don't underestimate this Red Plague King." Liang Tao reminded: "Back then, there was a bear country that suffered a lot, and it was their founding emperor Shen Heng who personally held a Tong bow and shot an arrow in the direction of Nantu, flying thousands of miles and hitting Chi Ze, which barely forced the Red Plague King to dare not take the lead for many years. ”
Today, the five countries of Kunlunzhou, including the Xiong State and the Huaxu State, all claim to inherit the orthodoxy of Tianxia. There is a Tong bow mastered by the Emperor of the Xiong Kingdom, which is an artifact of the Tianxia Dynasty, and it is claimed that those who do not have the emperor's destiny cannot hold a bow. In the past, the emperor slashed the dragon, and the sword immortal slashed the dragon, which shows how extraordinary this artifact is.
"With the founding emperor of the Bear Country, he can't destroy the king of red plague by the power of the Tong bow?" Zhao Xiao was surprised and asked, "Could it be that this evil is even stronger than the Xuanying Evil Dragon?" ”
"How can you compare like that?" Liang Tao chuckled and shook his head: "My cultivation mana is naturally higher than yours, but you have unique insights in scientific rituals and rituals. Do you understand? ”
"The evil gods are haunted, the witch is an accomplice, and the poison is endless." Zhao Xiao frowned and said: "Opening the altar and practicing the law, collecting the plague and curing the poison, after all, the symptoms are not cured." If you want to stop the growth and recurrence of this evil, you must drain the pond and reclaim Daze, so it is necessary for tens of millions of people to work together, and it is not something that three or two immortal masters can solve. ”
Liang Taoying stared at Zhao Huang tightly, he was stared at uncomfortably, and asked rhetorically: "What?" Am I not right? ”
"I just thought of something funny." Liang Tao looked back at the map of the county, pointed to the Tu River that flows through Dantu County, and said, "Do you know why Tu Jiang has this name?" ”
"The tidal flats on both sides of the river stretch out, and I found out when I was camping along the river." Zhao replied.
"Fortunately, you recaptured Dantu County during the dry season in winter, otherwise you wouldn't be able to camp along the river when the summer flood comes." Liang Tao said with a smile: "At the beginning of Huaxu's founding of the country, the tidal flats along the Tujiang River were full of fertile soil, and the local people built embankments and built polders and vigorously cultivated them, and there were bumper harvests in the following years.
As a result, a flood destroyed the fields, and hundreds of thousands of people were destroyed, displaced, starved everywhere, and covered with bones, which is what I saw when I patrolled the border with a sword. ”
Zhao Xiao didn't answer, and Liang Tao knocked on the map: "Do you understand?" Greedy for temporary small profits, despising creation, vain trying to force, incurring floods, and destruction is only in the day. Sometimes people don't die because they do something wrong, but they die because they do something right, and they die even more miserably and more painfully! ”
"Master Kuni." Zhao Huang is now much calmer: "Your great country in the world is not a move to despise creation and try to force it. ”
Liang Taoying raised his eyebrows, and suddenly laughed: "Yes, yes, in this matter, I am really not qualified to talk about you." It's just that your ambition may not be smaller than mine. ”
Zhao Xiao didn't want to answer, and casually cleaned up the table and books, Liang Tao continued: "You are now being targeted by the gods of the southern soil, and now the Ten Witches of Fengfu are just borrowing the mana of the Red Plague King, but you want to practice the law to collect the plague, are you not afraid of retribution?" ”
"That's why I need a magic weapon to protect the altar." Zhao Xiao said.
"What magic weapon?" Liang Tao asked.
"Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace." Zhao Xiao said bluntly: "I think about it, the enchantment I set up alone is not enough to protect the mandala and myself. And the only way for the gods of the Southern Earth to accurately find me thousands of miles away must be to take advantage of the time when I am practicing the Fa, and the qi machine can see where my position is. ”
Zhao Xiao has been recuperating from his injuries these days, and he has not learned a lesson. His initial doubts were that outside Dantu County, how did the gods of the southern soil deal with him? If they can really stare themselves to death with a casual glance, why don't they just curse Zhao Huang to death thousands of miles away?
Later, after dissecting the body of Shera Xiao and carefully examining it, Zhao Huang roughly determined that although the gods of the southern soil could send divine power to Wu Zhu, this method was not done out of thin air, and initially it must have been infected by some kind of qi to infect the meridians, or simply take drugs to condense divine power, so as to hook Wu Zhu's soul with divine power.
But Zhao Xiao had nothing to do with the gods of the southern soil, and later the sherroxiao was killed in ambush, and the white fang god behind him was also irretrievable, in addition to a hasty explanation of the incident, it is more likely that the gods of the southern soil are not able to kill the enemy at will across thousands of miles.
The only thing that can be explained is that when Zhao Huang opened the altar and practiced the law, the changes in the qi of heaven and earth were particularly intense, and the gods of the southern earth sensed the change of the qi and naturally discovered Zhao Xiao's position.
When he ascended the altar to practice the law, Zhao Xiao was already particularly conspicuous and dazzling in the eyes of the demons and ghosts, and the gods of the southern earth sensed the qi machine, traced the source, and immediately shot at Zhao Xiao.
And later, the mandala will be set up to collect the plague and cure the poison, and the movement will definitely not be small, and the gods of the southern soil will never sit idly by and watch Zhao Huang finish his practice, he must think about how to deal with it.
In fact, Zhao Huang originally wanted to use the leylines around Pujia Pass to arrange the Enlightened Nine Gate Array, but now that Liang Tao came to the door, he unceremoniously asked for the Nine Heavens Cloud Platform.
"You really don't think of yourself as an outsider." Liang Tao suddenly asked, "Did you covet Liang Shuo when you were in Xingluo County?" ”
"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Xiao pretended not to understand.
"Liang Shuo once recommended you to me, with his temperament, I think you must have lobbied a lot in front of him." Liang Tao said: "And with your background in Huaiying Pavilion, it is said that there is no reason to show sincerity to Liang Shuo, I think you are eyeing Liang Shuo and want to take the opportunity to get something from him." ”
"The eldest son of the Immortal Dao family, if there is a chance to curry favor with Xiancheng, who is not happy?" Zhao Xiao smiled helplessly: "Master Guoshi, I am not from a prominent background, the name of the successor of the Praise Officer seems to be clever, but it can be said that he is a poor pedant who buries himself in the pile of old papers. Xingluo County was lucky enough to let me show my skills, so that I was appreciated by the national teacher. ”
Liang Tao stared at Zhao Xiao, and he didn't know what he wanted to see, and then raised his hand weakly, grabbed it out of thin air, and a piece of snow-white jade pendant fell into his palm, handed it to Zhao Xiao and said, "Declare in advance that the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace is just lending it to you." ”
Zhao Xiao took the jade pendant, the cloud patterns on it seemed to be rolling endlessly, concentrating, as if he was in a sea of churning clouds, very mysterious.
"Is this the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace?" Zhao Xiao pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What about the Golden Dome Palace room above?" ”
"That's not part of the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace." Liang Tao said bluntly: "As the name suggests, the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace is just a cloud platform. In the past, the Qingya Immortal Ancestor soared to and fro in the sky, and the cirrus clouds under his feet have been infected by the immortal law for a long time, and the cumulus clouds have become the sky, and the condensation is the nine-day cloud platform. ”
Under the advice of Lingxiao, Zhao Xiao had long known the subtleties of the Nine Heavens Cloud Platform, and now he pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
"Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace, Daming Treasure Mirror, Fa Gong Immortal General...... The inheritance that Qingya Zhenjun left to you is really rich enough. Zhao Xiao sighed.
"Now that you have thoroughly understood the "Nine Heavens Purple Wen Dan Chapter", you should not need me to teach you how to make the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace." Liang Tao was about to leave with his hands down.
"Wait, you came to Pujia Pass in person, could it be that the seal of the Horned Cave is about to collapse?" Zhao Xiao stopped Liang Tao.
"You don't have to worry about this, so distracted and tired, be careful to take care of one or the other." Liang Tao flicked his sleeves and opened the door, and his figure gradually disappeared.
"Pretending." Zhao Xiao cursed in his heart and closed the door again.
Looking at the jade pendant in his hand, Zhao Huang couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The Zhenyuan lock has not been found for a long time, and as a result, what is the solution of worries, the Nine Heavens Cloud Terrace, and the magic weapon of the immortal family is taken out as if I don't want money, no wonder Mr. Huaiming ridiculed me for being comparable to Liang Tao's own son." ”
Ling Xiao said: "Liang Tao understands the truth that if you want to take it, you must give it first. Compared with the Dao Kingdom of the world, the magic weapon of the immortal family is not impossible to give up. ”
"The Tao of the World...... Whether it can be done or not is a matter of two words. Zhao Xiao sighed and said, "Is it really a vain attempt to force it?" ”
"What are you talking about?" Lingxiao asked, "Are you talking about building polders on both sides of the Tushui River?" Or are you planning to drain the pond and cut off the plague god? Or is it the kingdom of the earth? ”
"Both, not exactly." Zhao said: "The experience of the past few years has made me more and more sophisticated, but I have found that it is difficult to help people and benefit the public, and once it is implemented, it is often self-restrictive. ”
"Throughout the ages, it has been like this." Lingxiao's tone did not fluctuate: "What you do, there will be advantages and disadvantages, and if you gain today, you will have to pay the price tomorrow." Is there a reason to take advantage of the benefits and keep the past and the present?
You keep saying that you are popular with the public, but you don't know that people and people have different encounters, and what you want is naturally very different. It's not uncommon for you to be disgusted by me.
Looking at the world, the breeding areas of the tribes are different, I cultivate the acres of land, and they graze livestock, and the habitat is very different, and the clothing, food, housing and transportation are all different, so why should I measure right and wrong with the same moral character? ”
Zhao Xiao was speechless, and Ling Xiao continued: "Ze is born by the common people and benefits the public, it is indeed not something that the three or two immortal families can do. That being the case, you should not judge based on your own partiality. How do you know that the so-called act of profit is not a disaster in the blink of an eye? ”
