Chapter 147: Old Ancestor's Expectations
In the inner garden of the mansion, upstairs in the water pavilion, there is a breeze, and the fragrance of lotus is wafting, with a little pleasant freshness.
Li Zhen looked down on the water surface according to the antique wooden fence, and saw all kinds of carp floating below to ventilate and feed, swimming and enjoying themselves.
The ninth princess was wearing a slightly pink wide-sleeved fairy dress, with fluttering clothes, like a fairy descending to earth, accompanied him to watch the fish for a while, couldn't help but stick to him, borrowed the arm pillow, and said with a smile: "Husband, why do you also learn from the white lion and the leopard, and come to see the fish early in the morning?"
As he spoke, his eyes moved to the side, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
Not far from the feet of the two, two cats, one white and one flower, were squatting there, and they were watching the koi intently, and the big black eyes followed the fish from time to time.
"These two silly cats can watch all morning!"
Li Zhen smiled and said: "I wait for the monk to practice all day, in the eyes of the cat, isn't it also a fool?"
The ninth princess said: "That's different, the monk practices, the qi is sympathetic, I don't know how comfortable it is......"
Speaking of the back, he held his hand and urged: "Okay, husband, don't look at it, let's cultivate." ”
Right now, Li Zhen has already built a foundation, but she hasn't yet, and she is becoming more and more diligent in her cultivation.
The Ninth Princess does not have any urgent upward momentum, but if she can't build a foundation for a long time, she won't even be able to be a fairy couple, which is absolutely unacceptable to her.
Li Zhen had no choice but to be good.
He wasn't actually looking at fish, but trying to control water and command the ability of the water tribe, and he felt like eating a dragon soul fruit was like eating a lonely.
To this day, he still hasn't figured out what the meaning of this kind of thing is.
However, just after entering the room, an inspiration suddenly came to me.
"If the production of dragon soul fruit is not so rare, but it bears fruit every few years, and it can be obtained everywhere, the meaning is not the same......
The Ninth Princess said: "How is this possible, the spiritual essence produced by the mountains, rivers and valleys has a fixed number, even if it relies on the function of the veins of the earth immortals, it can't support such consumption, but if you want to regard it as a billions of doppelgangers with the power of the gods, maybe ...... Maybe it's a possibility?"
The Ninth Princess originally subconsciously felt impossible, but when it came to this, she couldn't help but feel a little contradictory.
Li Zhen said: "The Dragon Soul Fruit is of little benefit to us, but for mortals, it is tantamount to opening the key to the cultivation of divine consciousness, and the ability to control water is also similar to that of divine thought and repellent, and more importantly, after eating this fruit, it can echo with the Xuanzhou leylines and gain the authority to mobilize mountains, rivers and earth......
It is very likely that it only makes sense for mortals to eat this fruit, this is something for mortal kings, and that legend is not groundless. ”
The ninth princess was slightly stunned and said, "What does the husband mean?"
Li Zhen said: "The spirit of the earth, the legend of the creation of the gods!"
"The veins of the earth immortals, the blessings of the spiritual essence, and even the qi essence can all be blessed on the human body, if the output of these spiritual materials can be increased, there is no need for every person in Xuanzhou to enjoy it, as long as there is one percent, one tenth, after a few generations, everyone can easily be like a dragon.
The Dragon Soul Fruit is a good thing, which can precipitate the spiritual essence of the mountains, rivers and the earth, turn it into fruit, and share it with others, which is to connect the earth with people and achieve the solid foundation of the Tao, the world, and the people. ”
But soon, he shook his head again and denied his claim.
"Perhaps, it's not that simple. ”
"Slaying the dragon divides the fruit, and the latter is a hundred times more difficult than the former. ”
......
In the calm, the dispute between the Xuanxin Kingdom and the Shengyuan Kingdom has not subsided.
Because of the turmoil caused by the last battle for the Dragon Soul Fruit, a new war has begun, and the two sides have launched fierce battles around the towns in the lower reaches of the rivers in the east of Xuanxin.
But Li Zhen and the others didn't have time to pay attention to the battle situation here, so they were divided into another matter.
Because Lingfeng came to the news, informing them that they were going to cede the land to the Nagisa Yuan Kingdom!
Li Zhen learned of this latest secret from the new king, and hurriedly took out the transmission talisman and asked the ancestor for verification.
"Ancestor, is this true, the Xuanxin Kingdom wants to cede the southeast land and the three southwestern counties to the Zhu Yuan Kingdom?"
"Yes, I have already agreed with Qingyunzi to cede the land to him, no matter how the situation changes in the future, at least I will be a prince of Xuanxin, and it will be regarded as living up to the trust of the Mu family. There are few people in the Zhu Yuan Kingdom who are worry-free, but the disciples of Lingfeng are quite capable enough to compete with the Shengyuan Kingdom. ”
Li Zhen muttered, "Why ...... this?"
Huang Yunzhen snorted coldly and said, "Why is this so? Why don't you call the shots and talk about what to do?"
Li Zhen said: "This ......"
Huang Yun Zhenren interrupted: "I, Huang Yun, have been so strong all my life, if I was in my heyday, it would be really why this, but now I am also tired, and I have to prepare for the changes after a hundred years, the unique secular land that you think will be ceded out is the key point here in Lingfeng." ”
Li Zhen calmed down and asked, "Could it be that the ancestor wants to entrust the disciple to Qingyun Zhenren to take care of?"
Huang Yunzhen said: "Qingyunzi and I are almost the same age, and they will also face a thousand-year catastrophe, how can they be entrusted? Moreover, the Lingfeng inheritance is really a strong family, and the prosperity of the sect is the trend in the future, and I don't plan to call anyone to help take care of it, the sect is the biggest backer, while I still have some affection and capital, it is only right to help them seek a position in the sect!"
"Ancestor, are you going to return Lingfeng to the public?"
Li Zhen instantly understood Huang Yunzhen's train of thought, and he was still cunning and prepared that set with many hands.
However, she seems to have put a heavy pressure on the prosperity of the sect, and public office and authority are the most important, and in and out of her words, she vaguely revealed that she wanted to support the public family to take back Lingfeng.
This has to mention the development history of the Tianyun Sect, as well as the seven sons of Tianyun, as well as the origin of each faction.
The sect did not fall from the sky, it was directly generated in one go, and the predecessor of the sect was also a group of reckless casual cultivators or powerful families.
When a powerful master encounters treasure and is in the ascendant, it is necessary to establish a sect to attract Austrian aid, collect food, and protect himself and his relatives and friends.
It's like the Valley of the World, if one day, whoever can build a foundation and make a Dan, or even be promoted to Yuanying or above, and obtain the inheritance of the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land, maybe he can also open a sect and recruit a large number of masters to act as elders and others to erect the mountain.
At that time, an old friend like Fuyama Goyou, or Elder Tanaka, will become the founder of the sect and enjoy great authority within the sect.
Some can even become the so-called immortal cultivators, which has caused great constraints to the sect master's lineage.
Lingfeng blessed land is generally divided at the beginning of the creation, no matter which faction, want to maintain normal operation, the final trend must be to cross the river and tear down the bridge, to put an end to the influence of the family's powerful private teaching.
If it fails, the sect will continue to split, and the family and mountains will be numerous, and then decay in continuous internal friction.
Such a law is not absolute, but as far as Li Zhen studies the stories of the immortal world and the many histories of ordinary dynasties, he probably can't escape the circulation of blessed land and the dispute between public and private.
The Tianyun Sect was established more than 10,000 years ago and was a very young righteous path sect.
According to the normal law of development, it is time to liquidate the heroes and annex the blessed land of Lingfeng, the inheritance of the peak master is in the hands of the public, and it is the right way to appoint it by the public.
Huang Yunzhen's idea is to support the great politics of the sect in exchange for the position of a disciple, maybe after losing the Sang Yu of the East Corner and giving up the position of the Lord of Lingfeng Peak, he will be able to let his own disciples truly integrate into the public family and become the winner who has the last laugh.
Li Zhen quickly thought about it, now on Lingfeng, Luo Mushi's uncle and ancestor did not serve in the sect, and he has always played the role of the great butler of Lingfeng, but if the ancestor gave up his capital to pave the way for him, he could easily enjoy the important real power of the six courtyards and three halls.
In addition, the third disciple of the contemporary generation, Han Peiquan, and the sixth disciple Yu Lanxin guarded the Demon Yuan, with outstanding merits, Han Gusheng, and Lin Li, the two of them are shrewd and capable, and they are also suitable for being a practical manager and elder.
The other True Sect disciples are not very prominent, but with the help of each other, it is always easier for them to ascend to the position than other sect disciples who have no sect and no sect, and all kinds of grassroots and middle-level fat and important positions are indispensable.
The ancestor is three thousand years old, and he has accumulated a lot of enemies, but he also has a lot of contacts and friendships, and no one can target all the disciples at the same time, and calculate them on the people scattered in different mountains and under different forces.
Monk Jiedan's enemies are also Brother Jiedan, and no matter who she entrusts these disciples to, she can't be sure of everything, but in this way, she really has no worries.
"Yes, I've done the math, and that's the best arrangement. ”
The ancestor didn't know that Li Zhen thought so much at once, but she had always known that Li Zhen was worry-free, so there were some things that she didn't need to explain much.
She was just telling Li Zhen about her plans, and sighed slightly, as if she was a little lonely.
"Let's not talk about that, I want to ask you and Qingsi now, where do you plan to go?
You are only Qi refining cultivators now, and you are inconspicuous inside and outside the sect, and there is still a lot of room for choice. ”
Li Zhen hesitated for a moment: "Old Ancestor plans to let us choose?"
Huang Yunzhen snorted coldly and said, "No matter how hard I run out of oil, I still have at least a hundred years to live, and it is not a problem to take care of you, so whether you continue to be a worldly noble idler, or enter the sect register seriously, or even want to fight for the hegemony of the king, there is no problem." ”
When Li Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but be a little moved.
The ancestor treated himself and Qingsi with kindness and righteousness, which is enough to prove that he did not choose the wrong person at the beginning......
It's just that he made people, and after all, he still couldn't find a really long-term and stable backer, how could he know that there would be such a change.
He thought for a moment, but still asked tentatively, "I don't know what the ancestor has to say." ”
Huang Yunzhen said: "In fact, my ambition in this life is only to seek the Tao, and I have never thought of separating Lingfeng and building a country. ”
Li Zhen was curious: "Then how could the ancestor establish the Xuanxin Kingdom?"
Huang Yunzhen said: "It's not the dead ghost of the Mu family who pits me!"
Having said that, she didn't seem to have any regrets, but a little remembrance.
"At that time, we were young and vigorous, and we also wanted to make achievements, so we used the descendants of our descendants to lay out in the mundane world, trying to seal the position of the country, I never thought that the person would die without even reaching the foundation, I worked hard to establish Xuan Xin in order to fulfill his last wish.
You may have also read the official biography of Xuanxin Liguo, when Xuanxin was just a nameless small city that ruled a radius of 100 miles, these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains were all laid by children and grandchildren, I am the ancestor, how can I bear to watch it disappear in a hurry for a hundred years, so I have to take care of it all the time.
Who would have thought that the royal family would become more and more prosperous, and all branches and veins would become kings and marquises, almost occupying all these Xuanxin rivers and mountains, and even spreading to other countries.
I also didn't expect that I would be so strong on this road back then, and then seek for future generations, occupy blessed land resources and secular feudal countries, contaminate a lot of cause and effect, and offend many people......
Now that I think about it, there are some things that really don't turn back once you open the bow, and I advise you to better focus on cultivating yourself and don't learn from me.
If you can build a foundation, there is no need to rely on the immortal gate, after all, our monks are still different from mortals, without the protection of the power, it is difficult to move an inch, the monk can be self-sufficient, not fake, and do not need to rely on any resources and blessed land, just rely on their own strength to promote and break through. ”
Li Zhen was surprised and said, "What does the ancestor mean that we can go and be a loose cultivator?"
Huang Yun was truly humane: "Why not? But in that case, there is one thing that needs to be remembered. ”
Li Zhen said: "Ancestor, you say." ”
Huang Yunzhen hesitated for a while, seemed to be considering, and finally said seriously: "In the future Xuanzhou Continent, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a place for scattered cultivation, if you take foundation building as your highest goal, you don't have to think about it so long-term, but if you have the ambition to go beyond foundation building, maybe you need to go far and fly high, go overseas, or even go to other continents!"
"In that case, the future is slim, and it will be difficult for me to arrange and take care of ......"
The Ninth Princess also heard the words of the Ancestor, and couldn't help but change her face slightly: "Why did the Ancestor say that?"
Li Zhen shook his head and said, "Don't think nonsense, what the ancestor said is on the premise that we both build a foundation and can stand on our own."
At that time, we have the potential for further development, and we really need a broader world. ”
In fact, he vaguely felt that the ancestor's ability to expect him was greater than that of Zhuji.
Because in the ancestor's mind, what he has in his body is the same bloodline as Zixu Zhenren, and Zixu Zhenren has spent a lot of effort to secretly cultivate, maybe there will be some misunderstanding among the ancestors......
It is true that since Li Zhen transformed into a pure yang Dao body and was able to change her life against the sky, she has been promoted smoothly all the way, and now she has survived the catastrophe and achieved the foundation building, which proves that she did not make a mistake in her estimation.
Li Zhen couldn't help but want to tell her that he and the Ninth Princess had already built a foundation, but it was only in order to avoid shocking the world, or being mistaken by the people on the Spirit Peak for the ancestor to be biased, and secretly took out a lot of resources to support it, so he decided to continue to hide.
