Chapter 126: The Dispute Between Father and Son (Extra 41, 42, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Lingshan.
In front of Zhao Yinglian's grave.
Ye Cheng rented a carriage and came here with some sacrificial paper money.
He hadn't come to worship for almost thirteen years.
There was no way, I hid in XZ for the first three years, and I have been in seclusion for the next ten years, so naturally I didn't come to worship.
He wants to worship his godfather Zhao Yinglian every year, and when he checks it, he knows that he is also worried that he will expose his whereabouts when he comes to worship.
Now he can finally walk the world openly, so he came to worship as soon as possible.
Ye Cheng originally thought that he hadn't come to worship for thirteen years, and this tomb should be overgrown with weeds and shrubs, but he didn't expect it to be clean, and at a glance, he knew that someone often cleaned it.
There are even traces of burning paper money.
"Is it Lao Shen?"
Ye Cheng's eyes narrowed.
However, more than ten years have passed, and if Shen Dacheng is still alive, I am afraid he will be in his eighties.
When Chengkang was eight years old, Lao Shen was already old and frail, and on the day of several worships later, Lao Shen sent his son to wait in advance.
"It seems that more than ten years ago, when I didn't come to worship, I should have been from the Shen family, and I still came to worship every year."
Ye Cheng sighed in his heart.
This made him feel a little emotional, to be able to come to worship for thirteen consecutive years, this loyalty is really commendable.
After all, he has disappeared for more than ten years, and I am afraid that many people think that he is dead.
Ye Cheng squatted down, began to place the offerings, and burned the paper money.
"Godfather, I haven't come to worship you for thirteen years, don't blame me, it's really a last resort, after all, you haven't cut off the incense all these years, and I will compensate you for burning for more than ten years at most."
Ye Cheng muttered in his heart while burning.
After the worship, he went to another cemetery to worship the drunkard old eunuch.
This cemetery is full of great eunuchs.
Suddenly, Ye Cheng saw two tombs side by side.
It is already overgrown with weeds and shrubs, and at a glance, you can tell that no one sweeps the grave to worship all year round.
In fact, it is also a feature of this cemetery, after all, the burials are all eunuchs, and only a few people still have traces of worship.
As the saying goes, people go tea and cool, let alone die.
Maybe there will be a small number of big eunuchs, who accept their godsons or something, and they will worship for a few years or more than ten years, but more often than not, the godson will forget you before they die.
"Zheng Yan, Chu Ying was originally buried here."
Ye Cheng looked at the two tombs.
As early as after he was promoted to the grandmaster and served as the hall master of the Taiwu Palace, he took care of the old feelings, and released Chu Ying and Zheng Yan from the Blood Prison Tianzi Prison and settled them to spend their old age in peace.
Later, when the two died, Ye Cheng did not know.
Now seeing the tombs of the two here, Ye Cheng also feels quite emotional.
One by one, the old acquaintances have left this world.
It's really a matter of being a person.
Ye Cheng stopped, cleaned up the weeds and shrubs for the graves of the two, and burned some paper money, which can be regarded as a bit of personnel.
After worshipping the drunkard and the old eunuch, Ye Cheng sent the groom back, and then went to the Yechan Temple alone.
Nozenji Temple.
The humble house did not collapse, it should have been repaired regularly.
That tomb still exists alone.
"I wonder if Lao Bai has traveled back?"
Ye Cheng was very curious.
It's a pity that he hasn't seen Bai Yulang for many years.
The last time we met, it was fifteen years ago.
Ye Cheng came to a meditation room, which was quite clean, and it should be that Lao Bai arranged for someone to clean it up often.
As Lao Bai, it is very simple to arrange a subordinate to do this job.
Ye Chengpan sat down, then took out a jade slip and looked at it with his spiritual thoughts.
This is the alchemy method given to him by Biyou Daoist.
After a long time, Ye Cheng opened his eyes, and there was a strange light in his eyes.
"It turns out that this is the method of refining the gods?"
Ye Cheng muttered to himself.
Observe the gods, worship the gods, and refine the gods
This is a basic set of processes for refining gods.
Different methods of refining gods, just the gods of view, the gods of worship are different, and finally return to refining gods, that is, refining one's subconscious mind and strengthening one's consciousness.
The alchemy method given by the Biyou Taoist is called the 'Infernal Freedom Heart Sutra', and the visualized god is a bird's head, double-faced, four-winged, and three-legged form.
"Strange, why do you have to watch and worship the gods first?"
Ye Cheng was very curious.
However, he felt that it was better to try to cultivate first.
So he closed his eyes and began to visualize the godly form of the bird's head, two sides, three legs, and four wings.
Since he had already carved the form of a god from the jade slip, it was not difficult to look at the gods.
Soon, a lifelike and strange god form was conceived.
"The visualization diagram in the innate exercise method seems to be similar to this method of refining the gods, except that one involves the spirit and the other is the meridian network."
Ye Cheng thought to himself.
After the visualization of the god's form with two sides of the bird's head, three legs and four wings, Ye Cheng prepared to move on to the next step—worshipping the gods.
Worship with your own consciousness like this imaginary deity.
"This kind of worship is a bit evil."
Ye Cheng hesitated in his heart.
He was a little worried that after worshipping the gods, there would be any situation where the gods would have their will and target him.
There is an immortal Dao fruit in his body.
"It's not right, it's a little wrong"
Ye Cheng took a deep breath, and after careful consideration, he finally dispersed the divine form he had visualized.
He will never allow any hidden dangers to appear.
Unlike the visualization diagram of the innate exercises, it is just a visualization of a specific meridian network form.
But this visualization of the deity form is likely to involve a truly powerful being, and no one knows what will happen.
Maybe this divine refining method can allow him to quickly improve the level of martial intent, but the potential risk makes him have to give up.
Anyway, he has an infinite lifespan, so why take such a big risk.
At most, the comprehension of martial intent is a little slower.
It's not that he doesn't have a way to speed up the efficiency of comprehending martial intent.
Drunken Fist, Ascending Dragon Jue, and Brain-Eating Worms are all OK.
In addition, the meditation method he created can communicate with the subconscious, in fact, it also has such a promoting effect.
Call!
Ye Cheng let out a sigh of relief, and the whole person became relaxed.
It was as if I had just visualized the form of the deity, and I was carrying a great burden on my spiritual level.
He understands that it is definitely not a very good thing to observe and worship gods and then refine gods.
Maybe other people can take such a path of refining gods, but he has the immortal Dao fruit, so there is no need to take such a risk.
The Imperial Palace, the Temple of the Goddess of Maintenance.
Cheng Kandi Su Zhe was talking to the crown prince Su Cheng.
"Father, King Taiwu has not shown up for more than ten years, is there really no news at all?"
Prince Su Cheng said.
As the Taiwu Grandmaster that the royal family once relied on, he has never been seen, and there is actually a lot of criticism in the court.
Although in recent years, the Qianguo has been quite stable.
"Prince, are you listening to someone's nonsense again?"
Cheng Kandi Su Zhe frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice.
Naturally, he couldn't say that he had only seen Ye Cheng before.
"Father, it's not that the sons and sons have heard anything, but now the court is weak, and there are only a few Illusory Elephant Grandmasters, but there are Elephant-level Grandmasters of Biyou Palace, and their intentions are unknown, but our Qianguo still has to rely on its protection."
Prince Su Cheng said.
"And what do you want to say?"
Cheng Kandi said.
As the crown prince and the grandmaster, Su Cheng naturally has a great influence in the court.
Although there has not been any father-son struggle for power, there have been some hints of wind in the court.
"The son of the minister implores his father to canonize Biyou Ancestor as a national teacher and take charge of the martial arts of the country."
Prince Su Cheng immediately said respectfully.
"It's the people from Biyou Palace who made you do this?"
A trace of anger surged in Cheng Kangdi's heart, but he said expressionlessly.
"Father, no one has asked Erchen to do this, it is precisely because Erchen is a grandmaster that he knows how difficult it is to go from an illusion to an external image, if my Qianguo wants to gain a foothold in the future world of great contention, it needs an external elephant grandmaster, and only with the position of a national teacher can Biyou Ancestor really pull him over."
Prince Su Cheng said.
Among the current kingdoms, whether it is the Yunhao Kingdom, the Qinglan Kingdom, or the Donglai Kingdom, the imperial court has come very close to their own Appearance Grandmaster.
Only the Biyou Palace of Qianguo, although it announced its protection of Qianguo, was not close to the imperial court, and even had very little contact, so it was inevitable that some people would be uneasy in the court.
"Father, the Four Kingdoms Martial Arts Conference will start next year, why should we let Biyou Ancestor participate in this martial arts meeting? If all other countries have external elephant grandmasters to participate in the martial arts meeting, but our country is not the only one, doesn't this let other countries know that we are not in harmony internally? ”
Prince Su Cheng said again.
"That's enough."
Cheng Kandi Su Zhe said lightly.
Although he knew that what the prince said was right, he knew that once the status of Biyou Ancestor was established, it would have too much impact on the future pattern of the Qianguo.
This is completely inconsistent with the vision of the previous emperor.
In his mind, Taiwu King Ye Cheng also had a chance to become an External Elephant Grandmaster.
If the status of Biyou Ancestor is established now, where will Ye Cheng go in the future?
At the very least, after discussing with Ye Cheng, we can make a final decision.
He believed that Ye Cheng would still show up, and it wouldn't even be too long.
"Father."
The crown prince Su Cheng was extremely puzzled in his heart, now that the situation is so obvious, why is his father still so obsessed with the Taiwu Grandmaster who has disappeared for more than ten years?
Could it be that King Taiwu has never shown up, so he has been stranded and not talked about?
At this moment, a figure hurried in like a ghost.
It's a Faceling.
"Master Wu, you?"
It was the first time that Cheng Kandi had seen a faceling in such a hurry.
Usually he is very calm and calm.
"Your Majesty, the Divine Machine Building recently announced a new list of world grandmasters."
The Faceling's voice was filled with excitement.
"On the list of grandmasters in the world, is it possible that there is a new external image grandmaster on the list?"
Cheng Kandi asked curiously.
"Yes, moreover, this new Appearance Grandmaster, Your Majesty will definitely not think of it."
Even though the Facelings were unrecognizable, their excitement and excitement could still be judged by his voice and actions.
"Difficult, isn't it?"
Emperor Cheng Kang was shocked, and his face was shocked, "Yes, is it King Taiwu?" ”
"Your Majesty, you, how do you know?"
The Facelings were surprised.
After all, King Taiwu has not appeared for more than ten years, and many people wonder if he has fallen from his seat?
Even he and the demon general Monco had similar thoughts.
"Old Wu, has Ye Cheng really achieved the Outer Elephant Grandmaster?"
At this time, the demon general Meng Ke, who was guarding outside, rushed in, with a sense of surprise on his rough and old face.
Both Facelings and Monco are already hundreds of years old.
"That's right, it's Taiwu King Ye Cheng."
The Faceling smiled and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Qianguo. ”
The crown prince next to him, Su Cheng, was directly stunned.
Has King Taiwu become an Outer Elephant Grandmaster?
He also told his father just now that King Taiwu had not shown up for more than ten years, and he wanted to canonize Biyou Ancestor as a national teacher.
This slap in the face came too quickly.
"Okay, haha, Ye Cheng has really become an External Elephant Grandmaster, no wonder the last time he came, Master Meng didn't notice it."
Emperor Cheng Kangdi was originally very annoyed by the crown prince Su Cheng, but at this moment, he was in a hearty mood.
After all, he's under too much pressure right now.
Even the crown prince Su Cheng has a bit of a taste of forcing the palace.
"Huh? Your Majesty, did you say that King Taiwu once came? ”
Demon General Meng Ke was stunned.
"Yes, just some time ago, you came in and asked if something happened?"
Cheng Kandi Su Zhe smiled happily.
"Your Majesty, that time, I just said that it feels a little wrong, it always feels like I have neglected something, I didn't expect it to be King Taiwu here."
The demon general Monko suddenly realized.
"Father, since King Taiwu has been here, why have you never said it?"
Prince Su Cheng asked curiously.
"It was King Taiwu who didn't let me say it, maybe there was a last resort at that time, but now that King Taiwu has appeared on the list of grandmasters in the world, it means that he will be born again."
Cheng Kandi Su Zhe said with a smile.
The little knot with the crown prince Su Cheng before naturally dissipated quickly.
After all, it's father and son, and I won't take it to heart.
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
"Everybody's here."
Immediately after, a figure gradually emerged.
It was Ye Cheng.
He knew that after the release of the list of grandmasters in the world, he came to see Kandi Su Zhe for the first time.
"I've seen King Taiwu."
The faceless man and demon general Meng Ke looked solemn and hurriedly saluted.
Not only does Ye Cheng have the position of king, but he is also an external elephant grandmaster, who is on the list of grandmasters in the world, even if he is an illusory grandmaster, he must look up to it.
"I've seen King Taiwu."
Prince Su Cheng also hurriedly saluted.
Although he is the crown prince, he must show enough respect in the face of an external elephant grandmaster.
What's more, he is still a little weak-hearted.
"Ye Qing, you came just in time, you really hid it so hard."
Cheng Kandi Su Zhe said with a smile.
"Please forgive your majesty, Weichen is also forced to do so."
Ye Cheng immediately said.
"Ye Qing, what is the reason, why did he disappear after participating in the promotion ceremony of Tiantini back then?"
Cheng Kandi had already asked for the third time.
In the previous two meetings, Cheng Kandi Su Zhe asked the same question.
But Ye Cheng just shook his head and didn't answer.
"Your Majesty, about this matter, Wei Chen still can't say."
Ye Cheng sighed, shook his head and said, "Back then, Weichen also had to hide from XZ because of this incident, and it was only now that the influence gradually disappeared. ”
Emperor Cheng Kangdi showed contemplation, and then jokingly said: "Forget it, if you don't say it, you won't say it, Ye Qing, when I am going to die, you must tell me, otherwise I will not be blind to death." ”
Ye Cheng couldn't cry or laugh, because he knew that with Cheng Kandi's character, it was estimated that it would really be like this.
"Ye Qing, there is one more thing, before the prince said that he would canonize Biyou Ancestor as my national teacher, what do you think?"
Cheng Kandi said with a change of words.
Prince Su Zhe suddenly looked embarrassed.
His father is really too upright, and he doesn't know how to cover it up for him, so he just says it directly.
Of course, he also understood his father's intention, which was to tell him not to think about hiding it, but to have absolute trust in King Taiwu.
It's just that he has too few opportunities to contact with Taiwu King Ye Cheng after all, and his feelings are naturally not as deep as that between his father and Taiwu King.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has no objection, because Weichen and Biyou Daoyou have known each other many years ago."
Ye Cheng immediately said.
In fact, he knew why Biyou Ancestor had not infiltrated his influence into the Qianguo court, but had been shrinking back in Guizhou, which should be because he was worried about himself.
He guessed that this time the crown prince Su Zhe's proposal should be a test of Biyou Ancestor to himself.
Although both of them are members of the Dawn Society, they are already allies.
But within the Qianguo, both of them have their own interests and needs.
There will inevitably be some competition.
Of course, Ye Cheng is alone, and there are no descendants, at most, he will support the royal family.
Biyou Ancestor is different.
The Biyou Palace behind him represents a powerful sect of grandmasters, with a large number of disciples and even family descendants, and it is inevitable to expand its influence and seek greater benefits in the future.
Ye Cheng didn't care about Biyou Ancestor taking the position of national teacher.
Anyway, he doesn't fight anything.
On the contrary, there is Biyou Ancestor, who can evenly share a lot of pressure and risks.
He, the newly promoted External Elephant Grandmaster, is not too obvious and high-profile.
He just wants to cultivate in a low-key manner and improve his strength.
If you are in the limelight, let it be left to Biyou Ancestor!
