Chapter 216: Same as the Howling Dog
"The matter of the Eight Immortals in the Cave is related to the catastrophe of heaven and earth, and it is inconvenient for me to make a move, so you can go over there. Discuss with Lu Dongbin and them to rescue Nezha as soon as possible. ”
Taiyi Tianzun threw the dust on his left hand, a golden light flashed, and a crystal clear glass vial appeared in the palm of his hand, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, the size of a palm, with a pattern of the sun, moon and stars on it.
"This bottle contains the three-light divine water that I have collected over the years, which can heal injuries and detoxify, you can take it, or have a chance to use it."
"The disciple obeys." Li Anran took the glass bottle and couldn't help muttering secretly in his heart.
When Tang monks and apprentices learned scriptures from Xitian, Wudang Virgin, Taiyi Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, and Rulai all appeared in the world, and there was no reason why they couldn't go to Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Taiyi Tianzun's reason for the inconvenience of making a move is obviously not valid!
It is more likely that Taiyi Tianzun wanted him to participate in the Eight Immortals and obtain a merit from it.
As for Nezha......
It should be an unexpected event.
Taiyi Tianzun's worry is true, but it is also true that he won't make a move.
This sounds a bit contradictory, but in Taiyi Tianzun's logic.
Calamity, even if it is artificially induced, is dangerous, but the danger is much smaller than the normal calamity.
If Nezha falls in this catastrophe, it is also Nezha's fate, he will feel sorry and distressed, but he will not go against the sky.
This is a matter of principle.
Of course, this is also Nezha's weight is not heavy enough!
If the matter is related to Yang Jian or Li Anran, who is now holding the four swords of Zhuxian, the principle of Taiyi Tianzun will also be lowered.
Taiyi Tianzun said again: "I have also told Yang Jian about this matter, and he has already passed first. After you go, no matter what situation you encounter, you can't use the Four Swords of Zhuxian, you know? ”
As soon as he heard that Yang Jian had also gone, Li Anran was even more sure that Taiyi Tianzun wanted him and Yang Jian to go through the calamity and mix up some merits, so he responded respectfully: "The disciple understands." ”
Taiyi Tianzun waved his hand: "You can go." ”
Li Anran was worried about Nezha, so he didn't say anything more, and immediately retired and left, casting the technique of turning rainbows, but in an instant, he arrived at the eight immortals mentioned by Taiyi Tianzun......
To be exact, above the residence of the Six Immortals.
Taishang Laojun wants to bring all the eight immortals in Shangdong into his door and strengthen the power of the human sect, and the eight immortals selected are either his disciples or the reincarnation of the mighty.
This led to very few candidates for the Eight Immortals who met his requirements.
Each time you choose one, you need to spend a lot of effort to lay out the plan.
For example, the white bat in the previous life of Guo Lao.
After Taishang Laojun took a fancy to him, he summoned Taiyi Tianzun and asked Li Anran to take the bats and grandchildren of the white bat as the party to fight against the white bat, forcing him into a desperate situation.
Then, Taishang Laojun appeared, sang red face to save the white bat, and kindly pointed out a clear way for him-
Reincarnated and rebuilt, he became the Eight Immortals of the Upper Cave.
For the rest, the origins of Zhu He Xiangu, Lan Caihe, Han Xiangzi, and Uncle Cao Guo are all very different.
first put them in a desperate situation, and then reappeared as them to point out the clear path, and persuaded them to reincarnate and rebuild as one of the eight immortals with the word "days".
Lu Dongbin's previous life, Emperor Donghua, was actually the same process.
Li Anran didn't realize this at the beginning.
Until a certain time when I was drinking with Yang Jian, I talked about it.
Yang Jian pointed out that most of the people who forced Emperor Donghua to prove his innocence were Taishang Laojun's disciples, and Li Anran suddenly understood that there were still these filthy things behind it.
However, judging from the conversation between Emperor Donghua and Zhu Ganglie in the prison, Emperor Donghua may have seen through this.
It was only because he was disgusted and disliked by the Jade Emperor that he had the title of "the head of the male immortals in the world" on his head, so he took advantage of the trend and proved his innocence by reincarnation.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Li Anran's head.
Maybe it's not just Emperor Donghua who saw it.
Zhang Guolao, He Xiangu, and Han Xiangzi are very likely to have seen the clues in their previous lives, but they had to bow their heads under the eaves, so they could only pretend to be grateful and agree.
In any case, Taishang Laojun's strict requirements for the Eight Immortals caused the gathering of the Eight Immortals to become very difficult, and the time span was much longer than that of studying scriptures in the Western Heavens.
The first of the Eight Immortals, Tie Guan Li Chengxian, had already been more than five hundred years ago, and the last three of the Eight Immortals, Lan Caihe, Han Xiangzi and Uncle Cao Guo, Lan Caihe had just begun to cultivate, and the other two had not yet been born.
Li Anran didn't know where He Xiangu, Han Xiangzi, and Uncle Cao Guo came from, he only knew that Lan Caihe was the reincarnation of a barefoot immortal.
That's right, it's the one who was fooled by the monkey to the Tongming Hall when the monkey was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace.
Although this barefoot immortal is a scattered immortal, he has also cultivated to the realm of Daluo.
Just because of pity for the people who died in vain in the war, he threw the birthday gift Huo Feng prepared for the Jade Emperor into Lethe, so that they could avoid being infected by resentment and anger, and they could be reincarnated, which provoked the anger of the Jade Emperor and belittled him to reincarnate and rebuild.
This happened seventeen years ago!
The time when Li Jing temporarily acted as the god of justice!
It is said that the Jade Emperor thought that such behavior of the barefoot immortal was disrespectful, and wanted to behead the barefoot immortal to show the public as an example.
It was Taishang Laojun who argued on the basis of reason, believing that although the behavior of the barefoot immortal was inappropriate, it was also out of compassion.
Only then did he persuade the Jade Emperor, save the life of the barefoot immortal, and give him a chance to reincarnate and rebuild.
As long as you make enough merits, you can re-rank in the immortal class!
Li Anran was browsing the life of the Holy Mother of Jin Ling in the prison at that time, and Sanqing listened to the sermon with great pleasure, and he didn't care about it at all.
However, after Yang Jian knew about this, his face was gloomy for several days, and he just wanted to give the Jade Emperor, Li Jing and Taishang Laojun a shot each.
As his thoughts turned, Li Anran had already fallen into the clouds.
Lu Dongbin's residence in the mortal world is just a mountain villa surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a small area, only more than ten houses, but it is full of organs.
Small bridges and flowing water, rockery ponds, flower beds, bamboo forests...... The whole nine yards.
It doesn't look like a god's residence, but like a Jiangnan garden inhabited by mortals.
When Li Anran arrived here, Yang Jian, Lu Dongbin, Han Zhongli, Tie Guan Li, He Xiangu, and Lan Caihe were in the hall, discussing the rescue of Nezha.
Yang Jian was the first to notice Li Anran's breath and greeted the door.
Holding a big bone, the Roaring Sky Dog followed closely behind Yang Jian, nodding at Li Anran and smiling flatteringly.
Lu Dongbin, Tie Guan Li, Han Zhongli, Zhang Guolao, He Xiangu, Lan Caihe also followed.
After Yang Jian asked Li Anran about his intentions, he introduced them to Lu Dongbin: "This is Li Anran, the god of heaven and prison, and he is also the disciple of Taiyi Tianzun and the junior disciple of Nezha. On the orders of Taiyi Tianzun, come to help us. ”
"Lu Yan (Han Zhongli, Zhang Guolao...... I've seen the god of hell. Lu Dongbin and others stepped forward to salute one after another.
Li Anran replied lightly, and only paid more attention to Lu Dongbin.
Xu is because Lu Dongbin is also a congenital pure yang body, his body shape and appearance are almost exactly the same as that of Emperor Donghua, but he does not have the favorite temples of the time, and he looks much younger.
In terms of temperament, it is a little less majestic and a little more suave.
The Pure Yang Sword was transformed into a folding fan by him, and when he held it in his hand, he was like a genius who was better than a Taoist cultivator.
"It is worthy of the reincarnation of Emperor Donghua, it has only been more than thirty years, and there is already a Xuan Immortal junior cultivator! It's much stronger than the two related households of Tie Guan Li and Han Zhongli! ”
"With the Pure Yang Sword, Lu Dongbin has no shortage of killing methods, but he still needs to have a talisman magic weapon."
At the beginning, Emperor Donghua was reincarnated, and it was the Dharma he protected on the side, and he also got a wisp of innate pure yang qi given by Emperor Donghua.
Speaking of which, it was he who took advantage of Emperor Donghua.
Li Anran was ready to find an opportunity to give Lu Dongbin a defensive magic weapon, which could be regarded as repaying the cause and effect.
On the other side, Lu Dongbin and others were also quietly looking at Li Anran.
Among them, only Tie Guan Li had seen Li Anran a few times before, and the rest were the first time they had met!
But, Li Anran's name, they have heard it from Nezha's mouth I don't know how many times!
Especially the fact that Li Anran once imprisoned the Tongtian Sect Master (the Eight Immortals didn't know that the fake Tongtian was a wisp of anger from the Tongtian Sect Master, thinking that he was the real Tongtian Sect Master) in the heavenly prison, which made them admire Li Anran even more!
Countless times I wanted Nezha to invite Li Anran to help them solve the Tongtian Sect Master, but because Li Anran had been in retreat, it couldn't be realized!
Now, Li Anran, the legendary figure, has finally appeared, which makes them all excited.
But......
"Why do I look at this god of justice so unpleasantly?" Zhang Guo always muttered secretly in his heart.
Lu Dongbin was the opposite, he had a good impression of Li Anran at first sight, as if they had met countless times, and he felt like he was old at first sight.
Li Anran didn't care what they thought in their hearts, the most important thing now was to rescue Nezha first.
He figured it out on the way.
Nezha will be attacked by the fake Tongtian, probably because Nezha knows that the Dongsheng Shenzhou incident is just the layout of Taishang Laojun, just like learning scriptures from the West, it is just a play.
That's not the slightest defense!
Unexpectedly, the chess piece of Fake Tongtian would suddenly jump up and bite people, catching him off guard.
"Second brother, what's the situation now?" Li Anran asked.
Yang Jian said: "The Tongtian Sect Master should have guessed that I would bring the Roaring Sky Dog, and wiped his scent and Nezha's smell in advance, and the Roaring Sky Dog couldn't find their location. ”
Lu Dongbin added beside him: "Si Prison Heavenly God, we have just discussed, let's go find the pangolin first." He is a disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master, and as long as he can be found, he will definitely ask for the hiding place of the Tongtian Sect Master. We'll be able to ...... then."
"It doesn't have to be such a hassle."
Li Anran interrupted Lu Dongbin's words and said, "I can find the location of the Tongtian Sect Master. Second brother, let's go over now. Rescue Nezha as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. ”
At the beginning, the fake Tongtian escaped from the prison.
Although he was able to escape from prison successfully, Li Anran did it on purpose.
However, the Book of Punishment will not care about this.
Li Anran can locate the location of the fake Tongtian at any time.
"Okay." Yang Jian nodded, and without saying a word, he directly threw away the plan they had made before.
He had long expected that Li Anran would be able to find the location of the fake Tongtian, but it was only because Li Anran was in retreat and refining the Four Swords of the Immortals that he didn't bother him.
At this time, Taiyi Tianzun sent Li Anran over, obviously Li Anran had successfully cultivated the four swords of Zhuxian in the first place.
Although Yang Jian didn't ask or say, he was also happy for Li Anran in his heart.
"You don't have to go." Li Anran saw that Lu Dongbin and the others also followed, and said, "The two of me and the second brother are enough." ”
The last time he fought with the fake Tongtian, the fake Tongtian had the strength of the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal, and after staying in the catastrophe for so long, his strength would inevitably improve, and it was even possible to reach the realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.
Lu Dongbin and a few of them, Tie Guan Li and Han Zhongli, who have cultivated to the highest level, are only at the middle level of Xuan Immortals, and Lan Caihe has not even become immortals.
If they go, let alone help, the aftermath of their fight may kill Lu Dongbin and them.
In addition, there is another important reason that the incident of the Eight Immortals is a catastrophe deliberately caused by Taishang Laojun in order to eliminate the catastrophe of Dongsheng Shenzhou.
The False Tongtian is a whetstone left for the Eight Immortals.
Li Anran and Yang Jian still have to regain some strength, and they can't kill him directly.
With Lu Dongbin here, they still have to act, it's really troublesome!
"We're going too!" Lan Caihe was reluctant to stay.
It has only been fifteen years since the reincarnation of the barefoot immortal, and Lan Cai and Xusui are only fifteen years old, the youngest of the eight immortals, and they have the best relationship with Nezha.
When the fake Tongtian sneak attack on Nezha, he was by Nezha's side.
The reason why the mortals approached them was to ask him to heal them.
Because of this, Lan Caihe's heart was full of guilt and self-blame, and he wanted to rescue Nezha in person.
Lu Dongbin and Nezha knew each other the earliest, and said sincerely: "Si Prison Heavenly God, although we are not the opponent of the Tongtian Sect Master, we can also help you deal with his subordinates!" Rest assured, we won't drag you down! ”
"Don't underestimate us, we can help too!" He Xiangu was a little unconvinced.
"Hell God, let's go!" Tie Guan Li was much more polite, and only said: "One more person, one more strength." ”
Han Zhongli said: "We have dealt with that Tongtian Sect Master for so many years, and we are more familiar with him, we will definitely be able to help in the past!" ”
Li Anran: "...... "Are you still familiar with him?"
Seeing Li Anran's impatient face, Yang Jian gave him a slightly calming look, and said, "Fellow Daoists, I know that you are worried about Nezha, and you also want to contribute. But the main purpose of our visit this time is to save people, and the fewer people the better. In case the Heavenly Sect Master is forced to be in a hurry and the fish dies and the net is broken, then it will be bad. ”
The crowd was silent for a moment.
Li Anran didn't say anything anymore, turned around and walked towards the door.
Yang Jian bowed his head slightly to the immortals, signaling them not to worry, and followed.
"Wow!"
Although the dog has changed into a human form, the dog's habits are still a lot, and he prefers dog barking to human words.
He barked proudly twice, and was about to follow, when he heard Li Anran say: "Roaring Heavenly Dog, you, like them, also stay." ”
Howling Dog: (⊙o⊙)
Lu Dongbin and others: "??? ”
What does it mean to be the same as us?
What do you mean by that?
