Chapter 44: Heavenly lightning strikes the top

Lutang accompanied the eldest princess to Chongxian Temple again, and it felt like a different world.

Chen Tianshi personally came to the mountain gate to greet him.

Unlike other princes and nobles, the eldest princess Xiao Yuanzhen is very close to him, like a granddaughter, and calls him "Grandpa Heaven".

Xiao Yuanzhen has been a monk since he was a child, tied his hair and wore a crown at the age of two, and worshiped Chen Tianshi under the worship of immortals. Every year, the ceremonies will come to worship the immortals and chant the scriptures and burn incense, and the old Taoist priest has half a teacher for the princess.

Today, the sky is gloomy and heavy rain is coming, Chen Tianshi is afraid that the ceremony will take too long, and he will catch up with the rain and be embarrassed, so he deliberately moved the incense and praise in the open-air dojo to the Sanqing Palace.

Xiao Yuanzhen personally helped the old Taoist priest into the mountain gate, pretending not to be happy, and pouted: "Grandpa Heavenly Master, this palace has been practicing for twenty years, and sooner or later you can feather and soar." But there are guys who don't open their eyes, and they go to the palace to talk nonsense to the royal brother and sister-in-law, and instigate the imperial brother to recruit horses for the palace. Now this palace can only marry people, and can no longer be a god! ”

Chen Tianshi smiled and looked at the little princess who was coquettish and stupid, and hurriedly comforted: "The eldest princess has good fortune in the world in her life, and she can only fly into the sky after enjoying the blessings." Besides, the eldest princess has designated a stand-in, and she continues to practice, and there will be opportunities to ascend to immortals in the future. ”

Xiao Yuanzhen snorted, turned around and pointed at Lu Tang and said, "This Second Miss Wen is the stand-in of this palace. Grandpa Heavenly Master, how do you think of her cultivation? ”

Chen Tianshi already knew the identity of Lu Tang, and when he saw that it was the "ominous lone star" that made the "unicorn cry blood" a few months ago, he said sharply: "This woman's life is ominous, but the way of heaven will not be abandoned, if you practice well, you will have positive results." From now on, you need to cultivate diligently before you can go to the Demon Dao! ”

He only said that Lutang was a niece who was not treated by Wen Hou, and the Wen family was in ruins and had no choice but to seek a way out for the princess to become a monk, with a face full of disdain, and did not pretend.

Lu Tang squinted at Xiao Yuanzhen, and saw that she was also a little displeased, so he smiled and took out a pair of brilliant golden unicorns as a salute, and offered them with both hands.

"The courtiers must concentrate on cultivation to help Her Royal Highness the princess ascend to immortality as soon as possible."

Seeing that it was a golden unicorn, Chen Tianshi couldn't help but think about it.

Lutang is enshrined according to the ceremony, and the master can't help but accept it, but he sends it to the unicorn, and he has to prevent her from cheating. The old Taoist priest glanced to his side, and the little Taoist boy came up with a tray and took the unicorn.

"Huh? What's wrong with this unicorn? ”

After taking two steps, tears began to flow in the eyes of the golden unicorn. The old Taoist priest wanted to pretend not to see it, but the tears in the eyes of the unicorn gushed out, and the tray was full of water.

"Interesting. The golden unicorn entered the Chongxian Temple, but I don't know why he always cried? It has a lot of grievances! ”

Lu Tang followed behind Xiao Yuanzhen and teased.

This kind of little trick is usually used but everyone laughs, but at this time, it is like a slap in the face when it is thrown in front of Chen Tianshi.

The Taoist children in the view can still be intimidated, but the palace maids brought by Xiao Yuanzhen have already inquired about allusions, chirping, pointing and talking.

Chen Tianshi and the others were so embarrassed that they ordered someone to take the unicorn down, changing Fang Cai's loving and friendly attitude, and shouting to Xiao Yuanzhen, Lutang and everyone in the palace:

"In front of the Sanqing Palace, the big gift is silent!"

The gift began.

Xiao Yuanzhen's seat was placed in front of the statue of Sanqing, and Lutang knelt three times and bowed nine times under the caisson in the hall, and recited praises with incense.

This set is memorized in advance, and it is nothing more than scenes such as "burn the blessing today and offer to the gods of the three cleans".

After reading the congratulatory message, the maids took Lutang to the side hall to change their feather clothes and hair. The princess took off her crown and put it on her, and gave her a golden seal engraved with the name "Master of the Golden Court".

This means that from now on, Lutang is the stand-in for the eldest princess Xiao Yuanzhen. And Xiao Yuanzhen completely restored his status as a layman.

"Chen Tianshi, who worships immortals, is a person that this palace hates very much."

The gift was over, Xiao Yuanzhen and Lu Tang rested in the side hall for a while, the attendants around them retreated, and the eldest princess suddenly sneered.

"Because he made a random judgment, he decided that the eldest princess was a bad star?" Lutang asked.

"There are fewer and fewer people who know the truth back then, and the rumors will only get more and more ridiculous. On the day of the birth of the main palace, the Wenhua Hall was not struck by lightning and caught fire, but deliberately set on fire. The person who set the fire was Chen Tianshi, who entered the palace to preach. Just when the Japanese palace was born, in order to cover up the conspiracy, he told his father that the sky thundered and the sky fell on the stars. The father was a superstitious warlock and forced his biological mother to death. ”

"At the beginning of this year, it was the old Taoist priest who said to the imperial brother, saying that Yan Minzhong's eldest son, Yan Shuqin, was a concubine, and the palace was returned to the world. Such a ruthless and cunning person can no longer stay in the world, and this palace will get rid of this evil for the world. ”

When Lu Tang heard this, he was shocked and couldn't help but look sideways.

Xiao Yuanzhen had not yet pulled his hair except for the Dao crown, his hair was scattered over his shoulders, and his eyes were cold and hateful.

Chen Tianshi is just a magician, why did he burn the Wenhua Hall twenty years ago? If he was instructed by someone, Lu Tang knew that he was most closely related to Prime Minister Yan's family, and this matter must be related to the Yan family!

"What the eldest princess said is a big deal, why don't you make a decision after consulting with His Royal Highness King Qi?"

Listening to her tone, it seems that she wants to kill people in Chongxian Temple. Seeing Xiao Yuanmu's relaxed expression yesterday, he must not have known that the little sister was going to start an incident in Chongxianguan.

Such a big matter is completely decided by himself, and he didn't even tell his closest brother. I can't see that Xiao Yuanzhen, a graceful and cold princess, is so calm and sharp.

"The most important thing to do secret things is to keep it secret. If nothing happens, the law must not be passed on to the six ears. This palace told you in advance that I was afraid that I would hurt you for a while and make Seventh Brother sad. ”

Her tone was as awe-inspiring as frost, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes showed a little murderous aura.

Lu Tang couldn't think of any tricks he could use to kill people at this time, so he felt terrified in his heart, and he didn't dare to say a word again.

Did Xiao Yuanzhen in his previous life also kill people in Chongxian Temple? I don't think so. Chen Tianshi even lived until the Jin King Xiao Yuanhui usurped the throne and was also named the national teacher.

What method is she going to use to kill Chen Tianshi? An assassin killed in front of him? Or is it poisoning of food water? Lutang was completely unexpected.

Xiao Yuanzhen got up and walked to the door, looking at the dark clouds in the sky, the leaves swept by the wind, and the corners of his mouth were slightly sneered.

"How is Your Highness going to kill him?" Lutang finally asked this sentence.

Without waiting for an answer, a maid outside the hall brought a Taoist priest to greet him.

The Taoist priest said that the sky was not good, and he was afraid that a thunderstorm was coming, so he asked the eldest princess and Lutang to rest in the apse and wait for the rain to pass before leaving.

Xiao Yuanzhen looked at the sky and smiled indifferently: "No need, the wind and rain will not come for a while, the palace should go back." "Saying that, Shang Gong took out a well-carved peachwood sword:

"The eldest princess specially invited a craftsman in the palace to carve a peachwood sword for Xie Zhang's teaching."

"The eldest princess will reward the magic weapon, and Xiaodao will ask the master to come to the outside of the hall to receive it!" The Taoist priest of Zhike saluted and hurriedly ran out of the side hall.

The black clouds in the sky overwhelmed the city, and the day was as long as the middle of the night.

Xiao Yuanzhen ignored the sky, and walked up to the road with Lutang and the maids in the wind.

The car was parked in the open space inside the mountain gate, and under the storm, the old Taoist priest Chen Tianshi had to run against the wind and rain to see him off. Lutang stood next to the car, his face was blown by the wind and rain.

Xiao Yuanzhen stepped onto the wheel, looked back and ordered someone to hand the peachwood sword to Chen Tianshi, and smiled softly.

"Since the birth of this palace, I have been cultivating for 20 years and know a little about the principles of heaven, and there is still one thing that is not clear, please consult the grandfather of the heavenly master."

Chen Tianshi bowed: "Eldest princess, please speak." ”

"What is the evil of heaven and what is the evil of the devil? What is Heavenly Principle and what is the Right Way? ”

Chen Tianshi's yellow old eyes rolled, and he said casually.

"Those who go against the heavens are all demons, and those who follow the heavens are the right way. The eldest princess has been practicing for many years, but I am afraid that she has not yet understood the principles of heaven. Today, the vulgar has a good home, and it is also in accordance with the way of heaven. ”

Xiao Yuanzhen laughed loudly, pointed to the dark sky, and lowered his eyebrows coldly.

"Storms and thunderstorms are coming, and autumn winds and thunders are against the sky. Grandpa Heavenly Master, why not use the sword to destroy the demons and evils, and leave the heavenly path right? ”

She casually said that the autumn thunderstorm was not in accordance with the will of heaven, and to Chen Tianshi, it sounded like a child's rude words, and she couldn't help laughing.

"There is a saying that the wind never ends, and the rainstorm never ends. If there is really a wind and thunder against the sky, it will not last long, the eldest princess, please go back to the palace! ”

Before the words stopped, a white light flashed in the distance, and a rumbling thunder swept to the ground.

Xiao Yuanzhen's loose hair was extremely unkempt, and the strands on the top of his head stood up.

The maids were afraid that it would rain heavily, so they hurriedly helped Xiao Yuanzhen and Lutang to get into the carriage.

The car driver pulled out of the mountain gate, Xiao Yuanzhen also picked up the curtain, and said with a smile to Chen Tianshi: "Grandpa Tianshi, this palace will give you a deterrent demon peach wood sword, don't leave your body for a moment!" ”

Chen Tianshi stood in the open space in front of the mountain gate, holding a peachwood sword, his robe was flowing with white eyebrows and crane hair, and he really had a bit of an old fairy style.

"Eldest princess, is the old Taoist priest still alive?" The sky was thundering in the distance, and Lu Tang asked suspiciously.

Xiao Yuanzhen smoothed the messy hair on his shoulders, and his eyes were full of cold light and murderous aura.

"To kill the demon, you still need to fake your hand in the sky, and this palace just pushes him."

Before the words fell, a thunderclap hit the ground, and the sound shook the heavens and the earth, as if it was beside him.

The four horses in front of the car were startled, but fortunately the groom shouted as hard as he could.

Lutang was frightened by the thunder, and was shaken by the horse, and fell headlong in the car. Xiao Yuanzhen still sat upright, without losing his graceful and elegant bearing.

"Don't be afraid, there are ropes dragging behind the carriage, and lightning strikes can't cut us."

Lutang didn't understand what she meant, and lifted the corner of the curtain in the direction of his finger, only to see that Luan was driving a section of iron chain tied to the roof of the car, and the chains were intertwined and dragged along the back of the car.

No wonder there is always the sound of gold and stone in the sound of hooves and hooves along the way.

What is she?

Lu Tang suddenly remembered the peachwood sword that Xiao Yuanzhen had just handed to Chen Tianshi.

Compared to other wood, the peach wood is finely pressed, but the weight of the sword seems to be too heavy, and it must have been filled with copper bars!

was thinking about himself, and suddenly felt a white light flashing in front of him. This time, the groom gained experience, and hurriedly reined in the reins and subdued the four horses in advance.

A moment later, there was a thunderclap in my ears, and in the distance, trees and houses collapsed.

After the thunder, the rain was pouring down, and the rain curtain was dense in front of me, and there was nothing to be seen on the other side. The traffic in the city is like a large and small river, and the horses' hooves step on the water, stirring up white waves like snow.

The rain was indeed too heavy, and the princess had to take shelter for a while.

"Return to the eldest princess and the master of the Golden Court." The little palace maid held an umbrella and returned under the car in the wind, the rain was too loud, and she had to shout hoarsely: "Chongxian Guan Chen Tianshi, he was just killed by thunder!" ”
