"In other words, Master Fang, you have made a lot of profits in the past two years?"

The banquet was dispersed, and Master Fang invited Zhao Xiao to his home for a detailed discussion, and learned that Luo Xixian had done a lot of practical things for the local people's livelihood during the days when he was in charge of Xingluo County.

And because Wang Juncheng wrote a letter that year, in order to restore the livelihood of Xingluo County, temporarily lift the ban on Shanze, the local gentry were able to enter the mountains to open mines, plus tax reductions and exemptions, so that many displaced people from neighboring counties came to Xingluo County, enriched the population, reclaimed wasteland, and made the once withered Xingluo County prosperous.

"I'm ashamed, let Marquis Zhenming smile." Master Fang said again: "I sincerely remember that it was the Marquis of Zhenming who gave me a way to live, so that I would not sink with the chaotic party." ”

"Messing up the party, messing up the party......" Zhao Xiao smiled bitterly.

"Why is Marquis Zhenming laughing?" Master Fang could see that Zhao Xiao's temperament and temperament were far from the original Zhao Fu official, but it was not something he could provoke offense.

Zhao Xiao was speechless for a long time, and then asked, "Will Master Fang regret betraying Chiyun Capital?" ”

Master Fang couldn't grasp Zhao Xiao's thoughts, so he had to say: "Anyway, it is a good thing for the people to be able to live a peaceful life now." Even if we have a little money, if we run into constant wars, we won't be able to keep our fortunes. ”

Zhao Xiao shook his head: "Master Fang refuses to tell me what is in his heart." ”

"This ......" Old Man Fang was shocked, he had already heard about Zhao Huang's actions in the south, and even the Chiyang Wang clan was arbitrarily pinched and flattened by Zhao Huang, wouldn't it be as easy as turning a palm to deal with him as a rich man?

Now that he has returned to Xingluo County again, Zhao Xiao's opinion of Yang Liujun's group of Chiyundu monks is different from the past.

Compared with the three elders of Chiyun who slowly figured out and accumulated strength in the mountains and countryside, Yang Liujun hoped to use the power of the divine sword to lay a chance of victory in one fell swoop. For this reason, he didn't care who he wanted to appoint, even if it was some loose cultivation in the rivers and lakes just for some benefits, Yang Liujun would not refuse to come.

Therefore, under the command of Yang Liujun, except for a few who were born in Chiyundu, most of them are mixed, and there are even bandits and thieves.

With such uneven and corrupt men and horses, against 30,000 officers and soldiers of the imperial court, as well as a group of monks in the pavilion, Yang Liujun was still able to attack and defend to a certain extent, and made General Wei suffer several times, which shows that his talent is superb.

Zhao Xiao's cultivation today is not much worse than Yang Liujun. If you count the magic weapon to help, Zhao Xiao will face Yang Liujun again, maybe he will have a few chances of winning.

But thinking that Yang Liujun faced Liang Tao at the beginning, Zhao Xiao couldn't help but ask himself, can he be like Yang Liujun, risking his life to fight to the end at a critical juncture?

The higher the cultivation power, the more I understand that Liang Tao's realm is profound, and in the face of such a living immortal, all kinds of spells are useless, and only the divine sword can hurt the immortal body.

Coincidentally, the person who made the Excalibur lose its edge was Zhao Xiao, who was clever for a while, so that Liang Tao avoided a catastrophe, and also put himself in the other party's layout, unable to get out, which can be described as self-inflicted.

After thinking about it a few times, Zhao Xiao still didn't reveal his opinion of Chiyundu, and after chatting a few words, he left and left.

"Xin Shunying has been here before."

It was late at night, and Jiang Ru told Zhao Xiao about what he had seen and heard during the day.

"I don't have much to talk to them about." Zhao Yan said: "I just came to set up the mandala and leave after finishing my errands, and I didn't have the heart to fight for power and profit." ”

Jiang Ruyan said: "Xin Shunying probably hopes that you and Luo Xixian will get back together. ”

"And then?" Zhao Xiao threw down the scroll and said with a smile: "I, Senior Sister Xin, am proficient in calculations, so I naturally feel that people's hearts can also be firmly grasped through calculations. In the final analysis, she just hopes that Luo Xixian and I can advance and retreat together and support each other in the court. ”

"You're not going to do that?" Jiang Ru was puzzled and added: "Don't worry, I won't tell Shouza about this." ”

"What are you talking about?" Zhao Yan said: "Do you think I have other options?" also advanced and retreated together in the court, this matter is not only Liang Guoshi, but His Majesty cannot tolerate it. ”

"That's right." Jiang Ru felt inexplicably worried about Zhao Xiao, he had to bear more dangers and hardships than he wanted.

Seeing Zhao Xiao put down the scroll and leave, Jiang Ru asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"I'll take a look at the City Emperor's Temple, you don't have to come along." Zhao Xiao waved his hand and left the house alone.

In addition to the guards outside the door, the idle people in the City Emperor's Temple have been asked to leave, Zhao Huang walked straight inside, and the lights were silently lit around, slowly illuminating the road ahead with Zhao Xiao's body steps.

When Zhao Huang came to the main hall, the brass lampstands on both sides shaped like Fusang trees lit up one after another, reflecting the majestic statue of Hengbi Gong.

"Zhao Xiaoyou, you're finally here." The main hall echoed with the sigh of Hengbi Gong.

"Xiao Zhao meets Hengbi Gong." Zhao Xiao bowed and bowed.

Hengbi Gong's tone was not as close as in the past: "You are already a master in the world, and you are deeply valued by Liang Tao, so you can't be worshiped in this seat." ”

Although there is an enchantment shelter in a place like the City Emperor Temple, Zhao Huang is still wary and said: "I know that Hengbi Gong is disappointed, but it is not suitable to talk deeply here, can you choose another place?" ”

Hengbi Gongzhen quietly manifested from the statue, floated down the altar, raised his hand and pressed Zhao Xiao's shoulder, and shouted: "Come with me." ”

Zhao Xiao retracted his energy, only to feel that his body was tight, and the light in front of him flashed. The method of shrinking the earth is to use the leylines of the earth, and it is not easy to use it, and now although Zhao Xiao has obtained a rune of shrinking the earth from the stone firelight, he is still on the way to enlightenment.

What's more, the Shrinking Earth Divine Movement can't easily bring mortals back and forth, and if you're not careful, you'll be shaken out of your breath and be shocked.

When Zhao Xiao stood firm again, he felt that the surroundings were full of fresh air, and he was in an empty valley, with a bright moon hanging high in the sky, and the stars flickering, even if there was no candle flame, the valley was also full of faint light and clear light, and he saw things as usual.

This place is the cave of Tiegong in the past, and it is also the place where the immortal traces of the ascension are located, which is affected by the pure air, and now it has turned into an earthly blessed land.

"Don't worry, this blessed land has its own weather, even if Liang Tao has the ability to see and hear, he can't spy here." Hengbi Gong led Zhao Huang to a grass pavilion and sat down.

At this time, I saw a group of fat and honest, a little bit like a mouse, holding cups and plates in both hands, quickly put on the table, the plate is mostly Poria cocos and other mountain treasures, and the clay pot pours out the fragrant, amber fruit wine.

"The bitterness in the mountains is nothing more than that." Hengbi Gong also sarcastically said: "It can't compare to the food and clothing of the prince's stomach." ”

Zhao Xiao didn't care, looking at those cute marmots, they were hiding outside the pavilion, their expressions were smart, and they peeked over from time to time.

"Are they the Otter Demon who dug the Glowing Stone in the first place?" Zhao Xiao asked.

"Not bad." Hengbi Gong said: "This group of otter demons is bound by this seat, and they can be regarded as having a place to live, and by the way, let them repair the blessed land." However, this group of otters is short-sighted, and although they are psychic, they have not been able to transform for a long time. ”

Zhao Xiao pondered for a moment, and he would occasionally talk to Jiang Ru about demon cultivation. Because the vitality of the original body is different from ordinary people, most of the immortal scripture recipes since ancient times are not suitable for monsters, unless it is a spirit bird and beast with extraordinary natural endowment, it can only be explored by itself.

And what Jiang Ru cultivated was a recipe specially modified by Liang Tao for the Jiang family, and Zhao Huang once heard Jiang Ru relay that it was actually by imagining the true form of the jade girl in the immortal urn to guide his own qi and change his human form.

"I could have tried to instruct them." Zhao Xiao said.

As soon as these words came out, the group of otters immediately rejoiced, chirping, and kneeling and bowing as if they were human.

"After you left Starfall County, you learned these tricks to win people's hearts?" Hengbi Gong waved his hand lightly, making the otter demon retreat, and his tone was not good.

Zhao Xiao's face was ashamed: "I disappointed Hengbi Gong." ”

"I'm really disappointed!" Hengbi Gong slapped the table, and the cups and plates trembled: "I didn't expect that you would actually take refuge in Liang Tao, and follow him to engage in some kind of human Taoism!" Forget about his delusions, what are you fooling around?! ”

Zhao Xiao didn't answer, and Hengbi Gong continued: "Liang Tao acts as a person, you have seen it, and you yourself have walked through the door of death, why do you want to collude with him?" Have you become a coveter of power? Or is it that this rolling red dust has made you lose your heart? ”

"In the matter of the Dao Kingdom in the world, it was Liang Tao who took the initiative to find me." Zhao Xiao said: "It is precisely because I set up an altar in Xingluo County to suppress the divine sword, and he fell in love with my magic work, thinking that it is indispensable for the great cause of the Dao Kingdom on earth." ”

"Then you can escape!" Hengbi Gong said: "Heaven and earth are vast, why do you want to defend a corner of Huaxu Kingdom? With your ability, when you go to other countries, why don't you worry about reusing? ”

Zhao Xiao shook his head and retorted: "Not to mention whether I can escape from Liang Tao's control, I can't just leave everything that escapes from Huaxu Kingdom." What's more, my ability is also to improve step by step in the past, so as to be recognized by others. Otherwise, if a defector monk defects, other countries may not take him in and reuse him. ”

"Even if the yang is against the yin?" Hengbi said earnestly: "But I see that your current actions are clearly to regard the Dao Kingdom of the World as your own career, could it be that you were also bewitched by Liang Tao?" ”

"Hengbi Gong, I am the descendant of the Tianxia Dynasty Praise Official." Zhao Xiao replied: "There are some things, I still want to confirm it personally, whether it is successful or not, I want to seek a result, so that I can feel at ease." ”

Hengbi Gong stood up and said: "According to what you say, there are praise officials in the Tianxia Dynasty, which should have been thousands of years and have a long lifespan, why did the emperor break off after a few hundred years?" This kind of wishful thinking of the Dao Kingdom in the world, it is said that you should know better than anyone else, and this thing will never succeed! ”

"If it can't be done, it will be Liang Tao's catastrophe." Zhao Xiao said in a deep voice.

Hengbi Gong was stunned, and then asked, "This is your plan?" Use scientific rituals to counter Liang Tao? ”

Zhao Xiao's expression was serious and serious: "Hengbi Gong, you are the successor of Tie Gong and become the emperor of the city, let me ask, how vast is your mana?" ”

"That's not what I should have said." Hengbi Gong sighed lightly: "But since you asked, this seat will also tell you clearly - from Panlong Mountain to the south, until the sea, where the qi of the sealed domain veins goes, it is where the mana of this seat reaches, and it is not a problem to cover Xingluo County." If there are also my shrines in the neighboring counties, the mana may be even deeper. ”

"What if you let your shrines spread all over the Huaxu Kingdom?" Zhao Xiao asked again.

Hengbi Gong was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking for a long time, he shook his head slightly: "Virtue is not worthy, such a great enshrinement, I will immediately be swallowed by the incense fire to devour the true spirit." ”

Zhao Huang said: "Hengbi Gong should understand at this time, why the Emperor Tianhou Tu and the Five Virtues are all selfless, selfless, desireless and unwanted, innate sacred, right?" If you have a selfish heart, how can you carry the wishes of sentient beings? How to illuminate the creation of heaven and earth? ”

Hengbi Gong asked: "Do you think that with Liang Tao's selfish heart, once he ascends to the altar and practices the Fa, trying to control the qi of heaven and earth, he will immediately be counterattacked?" ”

"It's not a backlash, it's a hurdle he has to face." Zhao Xiao said: "Hengbi Gong asked me what my plan was, then I can also say that I don't have any plans and calculations, because I don't need to deceive Liang Tao at all." ”

This answer really surprised Hengbi Gong, and Zhao Xiao continued: "Actually, I suspect that Liang Tao himself understands this matter. After all, he is in the world immortal family, and some things have reached the realm, so he is naturally clear. ”

"What if Liang Tao passes this hurdle?" Hengbi Gong asked again.

"Then Liang Tao will no longer be Liang Tao." Zhao Xiao said: "Heaven and earth are selfless, this is not something that Liang Tao can resist. Since he chose this path, he had to take responsibility. ”

Liang Tao intends to become the Venerable of Shinto, and if he wants to control the qi of heaven and earth, he must set up a discipline and law. And the person who presides over the law will not be able to escape from the law, and Liang Tao's cultivation realm will be deeply embedded in the new discipline and law in the future, and the creation of heaven and earth and the faith of all living beings will be unabashedly presented in front of his eyes, which cannot be avoided.

Zhao Huang was at the beginning of the Pujia Guanjing Altar to collect the plague, and almost dissolved on the altar, because of his true qi mana, cultivation realm, form and soul and discipline and law are not separated from each other.

Liang Tao is of course extremely successful in the Immortal Dao, but what he will have to face in the future is the new and complete law, as well as the more vast and vast Heaven and Earth Creation, even if he can barely keep himself, the Immortal Family will probably have no chance with him.

Zhao Xiao himself is well versed in rituals and rituals, especially when refining the soul of the dead, he must bear and face all kinds of sorrows of the deceased. And when Liang Tao really wants to try to master the qi of heaven and earth, all beings in the world will definitely come together, and even Zhao Xiao doesn't dare to imagine that kind of scene.

Zhao Huang has been compiling rituals these days, and he is also thinking about what to deal with and resolve. But even if he exhausted his past knowledge, he couldn't find a feasible way. Liang Tao will either die directly on the altar, or become the pillar of the operation of the Dao and national qi in the world, and there can be no third way.

However, Zhao Xiao knew very well that he couldn't do it at all, but pinned his hopes on Liang Tao, and he was looking forward to Liang Tao being able to find a way that he couldn't even think of.

"It's too risky." Hengbi Gong said: "Not to mention anything else, what if Liang Tao chooses to kill you first before finally ascending the altar, and then make a desperate bet?" Do you have a solution for coping with it? ”

"At that point, I can't help it." Zhao Xiao was a little dazed, and he found that unconsciously, he and Liang Tao seemed to regard each other as an opportunity to realize their ideals at the same time.
