Chapter 25: The Earth Spirit Tree, the Struggle for Imperial Power
At the mountain gate, dozens of disciples and pilgrims gathered around the small bridge, and in front of them was a row of martial artists, led by Meng Qiuhe, the eldest disciple of Longqiguan.
After leaving for many years, Meng Qiuhe has become more mature, wearing a rich purple dress, wearing a green jade wrench on his fingers, a silk jade brocade belt wrapped around his waist, and wearing Quyun raccoon dog velvet boots on his feet, which is very powerful and magnificent.
He stared at the white dragon in front of the small bridge, his face expressionless.
The white dragon is surrounded by many people, not afraid at all, now it is three meters long, it can be regarded as a big snake, but it is notoriously kind, everyone is not afraid of it, and even feels that it is not a little threatening.
Meng Qiushuang pushed away the disciples and walked over, she stared at Meng Qiuhe, and said, "Second brother, what do you mean?" ”
Meng Qiuhe played with the wrench in his hand and said: "It's not interesting, I just want to try the strength of the Immortal Dao Master, I used to be in the Taoist Temple, I always wanted to learn from him, but I was rejected, I should have agreed today, right?" ”
Meng Qiushuang frowned and said: "Since it is a competition, why bring people, why threaten?" ”
Meng Qiuhe pulled out a dagger from his waist and said, "Little sister, don't ask again, now that you and I are strangers, call Changsheng out, as long as you defeat me, I won't bother again." ”
Behind him was a young man, handsome and handsome, who seemed to be fifteen or sixteen years old, but his eyes looked very deep, and he smiled and said, "Hurry up, Your Highness can't wait." ”
Meng Qiuhe gritted his teeth and aimed his dagger at the white dragon, ready to stab it.
"I'm coming."
A voice came lightly, and the disciples got out of the way, only to see Jiang Changsheng walking towards him, and the pilgrims suddenly exclaimed.
"He's the Immortal Dao Leader?"
"So handsome!"
"This temperament, isn't it really a fairy?"
"Even the dust in his hand is different from other Taoists, and it looks extremely extraordinary."
Jiang Changsheng's image is extremely outstanding, especially after breaking through to the fifth layer of Dao Law Natural Skill, his breath is almost integrated with heaven and earth, and he exists in the sky.
Meng Qiuhe withdrew his hand and looked at Jiang Changsheng, his eyes full of aggression.
The young man in the back was also looking at Jiang Changsheng carefully.
The reason why Jiang Changsheng came out in person was because of this young man, he was extremely close to the Tongtian Realm, his true qi was stronger than Hua Jian Xin, and the disciples of Long Qiguan were definitely not his opponents.
How old is this?
Jiang Changsheng suspected that this young man was cultivating immortals.
Meng Qiuhe opened his mouth and said, "Changsheng, come on, let me see your strength." ”
He put on a posture, clenched his fists with both hands, in the posture of a vicious tiger opening his mouth, and his legs were stretched apart, as steady as Mount Tai.
Jiang Changsheng nodded slightly, and said secretly: "This senior brother has become a top master, it seems that the opportunity is not small, but unfortunately, it is still the kung fu of the three-legged cat." ”
Meng Qiuhe rushed in front of Jiang Changsheng with an arrow step, so fast that the eyes of onlookers couldn't keep up.
Bang!
He punched Jiang Changsheng in the chest, but Jiang Changsheng didn't move a bit, just his robe fluttered.
Meng Qiuhe's eyes widened, his face showed disbelief, he gritted his teeth, and poured the true qi of his whole body into his right arm, wanting to force Jiang Changsheng, but it was still useless.
Just then, the boy suddenly moved.
"The Immortal Dao Master is really powerful, don't mind if I help him!"
The young man came behind Meng Qiuhe, with a playful and provocative smile, he raised his right palm and pressed it on Meng Qiuhe's shoulder, surging true qi exploded, and Meng Qiuhe's spirit was shocked.
The true qi of the two of them impacted Jiang Changsheng together, however, Jiang Changsheng's footsteps were as firm as tree roots.
The two were moved.
"How is that possible!"
The young man was horrified in his heart, he knew his strength very well, ordinary top masters couldn't hold on to three moves in his hands, he relied on strong internal strength.
Meng Qiuhe also knew the strength of the young man behind him, and he thought that the young man would be sure of nine out of ten when he made a move, but he didn't expect that the two of them would not be able to join forces.
Jiang Changsheng said calmly: "Two, go back and practice well." ”
Rumble!
The boy and Meng Qiuhe vomited blood and flew out, smashed in front of the mountain gate, and almost rolled down the stone steps.
The servants were so frightened that they immediately gathered around to check on the boy's injuries.
One of them exclaimed, "Bold! You dare to hurt His Highness the Seventh, look for death! ”
Seven Highnesses!
The Seven Princes?
The pilgrims were in an uproar, and the disciples were also frightened.
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, "In front of everyone's eyes, do you have to slander me for wanting to harm His Highness the Seventh?" It was originally a discussion between me and Senior Brother Meng, and it was His Royal Highness the Seventh who took the initiative. ”
"You...... Hurting the Seventh Highness is not good, it is a capital crime! ”
The servant roared with a hideous face, but he didn't dare to make a move on Jiang Changsheng at all.
At this time, the Seventh Prince got up, came to the servant, slapped him directly, and snorted: "Shameful things, get out of this highness!" ”
The servant was so frightened that he didn't dare to be arrogant anymore.
The Seventh Prince wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and said to Jiang Changsheng: "The Immortal Dao Elder is really powerful, such a skill, today's martial arts, I am afraid that there are few people who can be low, His Royal Highness is convinced, and he will not let people disturb him in the future, and I hope that the Dao Elder will not hold a grudge against His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness really wants to make friends with the Dao Chief." ”
Jiang Changsheng chuckled and said: "It's just a martial arts competition, if His Royal Highness wants to come to incense, Long Qiguan will always welcome it." ”
The Seventh Prince smiled, then turned to leave.
Meng Qiuhe got up, gave Jiang Changsheng a complicated look, and then followed down the mountain, followed by the other servants.
Disciples and pilgrims gathered around one after another, cheering at Jiang Changsheng, Jiang Changsheng just now did not make a move, but showing the demeanor of the grandmaster and the Taoist master, he could easily repel the strong enemy.
Jiang Changsheng actually guessed that the other party was the prince, because this kid's true qi was very similar to Jiang Yuan, and even Jiang Yu and the second prince were not so true.
True Dragon's Breath!
Jiang Changsheng left after a polite exchange with the people around him, and the white dragon stayed where he was, enjoying the love of the pilgrims.
Back in the courtyard, a line of words appeared in front of Jiang Changsheng's eyes:
[In the twenty-second year of Kaiyuan, the Seven Princes brought Meng Qiuhe to attack, and you successfully repelled them, survived a disaster, and obtained a survival reward - the spiritual object 'Earth Spirit Tree']
Spirits?
This is the first time I've seen it.
Jiang Changsheng thought silently, and then went back to the house to accept the memories of the Earth Spirit Tree.
The Earth Spirit Tree is a tree species that breeds spiritual energy, and when it is conceived, it can give birth to spiritual wisdom and even defend the territory, which is a very good tree species.
Jiang Changsheng took it out, it was only in a seed state at the moment, and he followed it out of the house and buried it in the middle of the courtyard.
Hua Kenshin walked out of the house and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
Jiang Changsheng said with a smile: "Just now when I was walking on the road, a seed suddenly fell from the sky, maybe it was a gift from God, try it and see if you can grow a big tree in the sky." ”
Hanade Heart was silent.
She was used to Jiang Changsheng's chatter, and she really wanted to ask when she was going to have a son.
Since Jiang Changsheng said it last year, she has been waiting, but after waiting for a year, there is no news, and she wonders if she was dreaming at that time.
After Jiang Changsheng buried the seeds, he left a sentence and left: "I have time to water it." ”
Looking at Jiang Changsheng entering the house, Hua Jianxin was stunned for a while, and then stomped his feet gently, although he was very resentful, he still honestly went to the water tank to scoop water.
The interruption of the Seventh Prince did not make Jiang Changsheng worried, but he had some expectations.
Small troubles like this can be more common to help farm survival rewards.
As long as the unknown Mahayana Dragon Tower doesn't make a move, it's easy to say.
Dealing with the Seven Princes just now, Jiang Changsheng had deliberately controlled his spiritual power, so he used a little force, one hundredth, for fear of shocking these two guys to death.
The news that the Seven Princes had brought the martial champion to challenge the Immortal Dao Leader quickly spread in the capital, adding to the prestige of the Immortal Dao Chief.
In the Imperial Palace, in the Imperial Garden, a group of princes gathered.
"Hahaha, seventh brother, you dare to challenge the immortal Dao leader, don't believe in evil, didn't I tell you the ending of the old immortal before?"
The second prince Jiang Ming laughed and said, the seventh prince stood behind Jiang Gan, watching him play chess with other brothers, and he was indifferent in the face of Jiang Ming's sarcasm.
A prince stood up and said with a smile: "The seventh brother is young, high-spirited, and can understand, after all, the immortal Taoist priest is a Taoist priest favored by his father and emperor, how can he not be strong in martial arts?" ”
The other princes followed suit, comforted the seventh prince, and also gave him a step.
Jiang Ming pursed his lips, feeling bored, so he didn't say any more.
He asked Jiang Qian, "What about the fourth brother?" ”
Jiang Qian fell and said, "Pestering Zong Tianwu to practice martial arts." ”
Since being taught by Zong Tianwu, Jiang Yu has pestered Zong Tianwu to practice martial arts, and he didn't even go to Jiang Changsheng.
In his opinion, Zong Tianwu is stronger, after all, Jiang Changsheng is just a Taoist, and Zong Tianwu is the supreme martial arts and a myth in the hearts of martial arts people.
Jiang Ming teased: "Big brother, your fourth brother is not simple, after coming back, he will go around to win over military power." ”
Jiang Qian didn't say anything and concentrated on playing chess, while the other princes pretended not to hear.
Recently, the crown prince, the second prince, and the fourth prince are fighting in the open and dark, and they are all wooing the Chinese martial arts, which is already a well-known thing to passers-by, and the emperor sits on the dragon chair, thinking all day about annexing the ancient khan in the future.
Although Dajing won many battles, the territory of the ancient Khan was vast, and the soldiers of Dajing were very difficult to conquer the capital of the ancient khan.
The Seventh Prince suddenly spoke: "Speaking of which, what does the father mean, why don't you let the eldest brother live in the East Palace?" ”
The East Palace is the place where the prince lives, and as the prince, if he does not live in the East Palace for a day, the throne will be unstable.
The princes all looked at Jiang Gan, Jiang Gan's face did not change, and said: "My father is still in the prime of life, why do you need to think about this?" ”
Oh, yes.
My father still wants to live forever.
The princes shook their heads and smiled.
Jiang Ming suddenly asked, "Seventh brother, have you met a master in the Mahayana Dragon Tower?" Is there anyone stronger than Zong Tianwu? ”
The Seventh Prince turned his head and said: "Of course there is, the Mahayana Dragon Tower is the pillar of the Dajing Dynasty, a royal secret, but it is too low-key, otherwise how can the supreme position of martial arts allow Zong Tianwu?" ”
Jiang Ming's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped up, stopped the shoulders of the Seventh Prince, and pulled him aside.
The other princes did not bother, either they had no ambitions, or they did not dare to show it.
The crown prince, the second prince, the four princes competed for power, and the seventh prince, who was the most favored by the emperor, in front of the four of them, the other princes seemed to have a very low sense of existence.
……
Spring goes to autumn, and it's another year of good autumn colors.
In the twenty-third year of Kaiyuan, Jiang Changsheng was busy cultivating, and his cultivation was growing steadily, but he was far from the sixth layer of Dao Law Natural Skill, and Hua Jianxin had not stepped into the realm of Tongtian, and he was still one step away.
"Alas, now that the second prince and the crown prince dare to fight each other angrily in the court, it is really presumptuous, Your Majesty doesn't even care about the second prince, I think he is starting to be mediocre again......"
Chen Li was pouring bitter water on Jiang Changsheng, still presumptuous, still bold.
