Chapter 102、I will definitely be very beaten when the time comes
Pan Long chatted with Changchunzi for a long time, and learned more about the life of his apprentice's family during this period from this kind old Taoist priest.
Since the Mid-Autumn Festival Rebellion, the imperial court has ridden everywhere, further increasing the investigation of hundreds of anti-thieves, especially in metropolises like Guangling, which is checked three times a day.
In areas where the rich gather, officials and errands have to be more or less restrained, and they dare not make much noise. But in other places, they are babbling, not ordinary commotion.
This is not deliberately bad, but the situation is forcing - the pressure from the court is so great, if you don't make some movement, how can you prove that you have worked hard?
Just like the world in Pan Long's previous life, even in the era of the sea of stars, grassroots management departments such as neighborhood committees still have to toss from time to time, so that everyone can't help but complain, and even some have a bad temper and complain that they disturb the people.
Actually, it's the same thing...... I didn't move, I couldn't prove that I really worked hard!
To be honest, these officials actually didn't cause much trouble to the people of Guangling City, they were just a lot of noise disturbing the people - at best, it was probably equivalent to the next door of your house being renovated.
It's annoying, but that's about it.
But for Zheng Shuang, this is very troublesome.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, when Pan Long was taking care of his teacher, he got a copy of the "Revised Edition of the Three Famous Teachers" Yuan Qi Gu mystical book, and handed it to Zheng Shuang along with some necessary medicines, and also guided him for a period of time by the way.
Then Pan Long left, and Zheng Shuang buried himself in practicing the superior mental method that was enough to become an heirloom for ordinary people in the rivers and lakes.
Time passed slowly, and his cultivation was slowly increasing, and the situation was very good.
But this good situation no longer existed with the active efforts of the officials of Guangling City - the officials really didn't come to harass the Zheng family, but Zheng Shuang needed to cultivate with peace of mind, and when he concentrated on cultivating, the noises that came from time to time woke him up, so that he couldn't cultivate with peace of mind.
After barely cultivating but almost going mad, Zheng Shuang had no choice but to take his family out of the city and find a quiet place to cultivate.
He searched and searched, and found Changchun Temple.
Changchunzi is an old Taoist priest who has no quarrel with the world, except for selling flowers and treating flowers for people, he has nothing else to do with Hongchen. He is a Taoist priest with a formal official deed document, and Changchun Temple is also a regular Taoist temple registered in the imperial court for many years.
...... The key is that this Taoist view is not big, and it can't hide any chaos in the party and the court, so why bother to offend people for this?
When Zheng Shuang used to be a chef, he had dealings with Changchun Guan because some dishes needed flower petals as raw materials. This time, he came to visit and explained his difficulties, and wanted to borrow a period of time to retreat in peace, but Changchunzi did not refuse.
The old Taoist priest just asked about the exercises he was cultivating, and when he learned that it was the method of the Yuan Qi Gu God, he nodded and agreed to let the Zheng family stay.
Zheng Shuang's life in Changchun Temple was so satisfying that he was finally able to continue his meditation and his two sons were able to practice here - although they seemed to show some interest in magic after seeing the spells of the Taoist priests, Zheng Shuang persuaded them with the idea that "only by cultivating to the innate realm can they have enough lifespan to study spells".
No matter what you want to learn, longevity is important.
Even his wife looks a few years younger because of her stable and peaceful life.
If nothing else, they should have lived in Changchun for at least a year - the Hundred Schools Rebellion was in the limelight, and the chaos in Guangling City would not end in a short period of time.
After Pan Long learned about these situations, he said that he would donate to Changchun Temple. Chang Chunzi smiled and said no, he said that the temple was not short of money, but Pan Long persuaded him.
It is not right that no one in the world can get without giving.
Zheng Shuang had naturally paid for the help of Changchun Temple, but Pan Long could see at a glance that many of the arrangements in that quiet room were painstakingly arranged, not to mention that as soon as he touched the vigilance, Changchunzi hurried over - if he wanted a Dao Sect Warlock with advanced cultivation to be so attentive, Zheng Shuang's little money was far from enough.
Or to put it more plainly, it's not a question of money at all.
So in the end, Changchunzi accepted the bottle of Chaolu Dan.
Asaka Pill is also a well-known elixir, which can dissolve the stun caused by overcasting, and can keep the warlock in a good state of mind during fierce battles or rushing levels. Among the auxiliary elixirs used by warlocks, it is quite famous and precious.
For those Warlocks of the Wild Road, the biggest problem may be that they don't have enough mana. But for a warlock like Chang Chunzi who has cultivated along the authentic path, mana has never been a problem, the problem is that his mind and body can't withstand a large number of consecutive spells in a short period of time.
It's okay to have a physical problem, or you can't care about your body at a critical moment, even if you kill your body, the warlock has a way to bring yourself back to life, or even simply continue to live in the form of a soul or a corpse.
But the problem of the mind is more difficult to solve - when the mind has a problem, the ability to think will be affected. The easiest way to do this is to take the soul out of the body and think with the soul. But when the soul is separated from the body, there will be a huge flaw, and it is very easy to have problems.
So the best thing to do is to use medication for relief.
Chao Lu Dan is such an elixir.
Although Changchun Zi is not without similar elixirs, such a good thing, no matter how much it is stored, it will not be wasted.
So in the end, he was still gracious and accepted Pan Long's gift.
Pan Long knew that even if he didn't give any gifts, Changchunzi would protect the safety of Zheng Shuang's family with his heart - this was not only his ethics as a person in the righteous path, but also the face of Changchunguan.
But with this gift, in addition to protection, Changchunzi will most likely give Zheng Shuang and his children some guidance.
As a master who can't stay with his apprentice for a long time to teach carefully, Pan Long really doesn't feel very responsible. But he really couldn't stay in Guangling City for a long time, so he could only find a way around the bush.
"Alas, it would be nice if I could cultivate into an immortal Buddha! second-class, even if it's just the unity of heaven and man!" Looking at Changchun Guan from afar, who was about to disappear at the end of the horizon, Pan Long couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Immortal Buddhas can create out-of-body incarnations whose strength is roughly similar to their own, even if the real body is damaged, as long as the original spirit is not suppressed or defeated, the incarnation will not be affected; the demon god is second-class, and can create an incarnation with about one or two percent of his own strength, but once the real body is severely damaged, the incarnation will disappear immediately; again, the great grandmaster can only create an incarnation with no combat power, but at least he can act as a teacher.
It's just that...... It is not easy to go from returning to the basics to the unity of nature and man.
Even the talented martial arts powerhouses often need twenty or thirty years of accumulation before they can take this step. And most real people basically do not have until the end of their life to enhance their understanding of the world because of their own weakness, so as to step into this realm at the end of their lives.
If you are not strong enough, you can't break through the realm, but the stronger you are, the more difficult it is to echo with heaven and earth, which is a dilemma that all real masters need to face.
Pan Long hasn't reached the time to think about this problem for the time being, he hasn't stepped into the back to basics for a long time, and this realm has not yet come to an end.
Now for him, what he needs most is to broaden his horizons, deepen his accumulation, and constantly enhance himself.
As for "too strong to echo heaven and earth" or something, let's talk about it then.
Flying among the clouds and feeling the wind blowing in his face, Pan Long thought about what he should do next?
The teacher doesn't have to go by himself for the time being, the water in Gyeonggi is too deep and I don't want to mix, and the Shan Hai Jing is currently lacking in aura...... Why don't you go to the Dragon Slaying Treasure to find Wen Chao's afterimage to learn and learn?
Wen Chao's remnant was originally going to live in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but he found that there was a big difference between the Classic of Mountains and Seas under Pan Long's control and those under his control, so he did not stay in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but lived in the treasure of slaying the dragon.
In his words, "you should follow your own path, my path will only interfere and hinder you".
For this reason, he even left a large amount of information that should have been directly left to Pan Long in the Dragon Slaying Treasure.
But he did not refuse Pan Long to study, on the contrary, he welcomed it.
"Relying on Baidu to answer questions is not the right way. But it's a good thing that Baidu reads the paper and understands it yourself. He said, "Zhao Sheng and I may have relied too much on inherent knowledge back then, relying on copying ready-made books all day long, and neglecting our own research and study, so that we would make mistakes." You should learn our lesson...... Zhao Sheng made a mistake, at least I will try to stop him, if you make a similar mistake, there will probably be no one in the world to stop you. ”
Pan Long also felt that he had a point.
Are you missing a Baidu now?
Of course it's better to have, but no, in fact, it doesn't matter.
In the final analysis, in terms of the path to immortality, what he lacks is actually only the accumulation of years, and he does not lack anything else.
As for things other than immortality, it is too late to think about it after immortality.
Back then, Zhao Sheng and Wen Chao didn't have time to develop in a low-key manner, and they didn't stop fighting as soon as they debuted, although they grew very fast, they left hidden dangers after all.
If only they could develop in a low-key manner, cultivate into immortal Buddhas or demon gods, and then be born. The results will definitely be much better than later!
The lessons of our predecessors must be learned by future generations.
Thinking of this, Pan Long dispelled the idea of going to the Dragon Slaying Treasure to study.
He'll have enough of it!
Now that he doesn't have any special knowledge or skills to learn for the time being, he went to the Dragon Slaying Treasure, could he follow Wen Chao to learn alchemy or array?
Naturally, they are all excellent skills, but he doesn't have a green vial that can speed up the growth of medicinal materials for a year by dropping a drop of potion, and after learning alchemy, he doesn't have so many materials to practice.
As for going to the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas to refine medicines - the refining of relatively high-grade pills can easily take several months, and the time that can stay in the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas is simply not enough.
The Dragon Slaying Treasure was prepared by Wen Chao for the latecomers to overthrow Zhao Sheng's rule, and it contained enough materials to train a powerful army of warriors. Low-grade pills such as Chihuo Powder are really piled up in it, what is there to refine?
Why don't you go find something to do......
After thinking about it, he finally made up his mind to go to the South China Sea.
On the other side of the South China Sea, a large number of masters of the rivers and lakes are searching for the big demon who was defeated and fled, and there should be a big scene.
Pan Long was not interested in the Great Demon's Inner Dan, or in cultivating it to protect his descendants by a snake Jiao. He was interested in this big scene.
has lived so much, and he has never seen a large number of masters go out to hunt a big demon.
When he was in Dingfeng Town, he once participated in the autumn hunt. Although the scene is quite intense and lively, but now that I think about it, it really feels like some rookies pecking at each other.
Under normal circumstances, the demon hunting team attacks ordinary beasts, and those who are at the acquired level are those monsters that are in the sky. Anyone who encounters a demon beast in the innate realm, even if there is only one, is enough to make the demon hunting team feel like a great enemy. It takes a lot of preparation to dare to attack it.
And the demon beast of that level, now he can spray one to death with a mouthful of spit.
Of course, he had also seen a bigger scene, such as the Yunzhou Demon God besieging Bi Lingkong at the beginning.
It was the largest battle he had ever seen in his life, and it was even much bigger than the ambush emperor of the hundred schools of thought.
But at that time, he was not strong enough, and he could only look up on the ground. The gods canonized by the imperial court covered the sky with thick clouds, and he could only see half a scale and a half claw in the battle above the clouds.
Although he was amazed by just that scale and half a claw, and now that he thinks about it, he still thinks it is wonderful, but ...... After all, I haven't been able to enjoy it!
The time when the Hundred Schools ambushed the Emperor Firmament was also the time, the Shenji Battalion and the Hundred Masters did not really start a full-scale war, and the two sides separated when they were fighting. Before parting, Pan Long himself was busy fighting, and he couldn't spare any energy to watch and appreciate it.
When he finished fighting himself, others also finished fighting, and only the battle between the immortals remained.
Bi Lingkong's battle against the emperor's firmament is high-end, but it is always the same sentence.
It's not lively, but it's not fun!
If you think about it carefully, he really didn't have a detached attitude of staying out of the matter to observe a scene of a large number of masters fighting.
...... Hopefully this time I will have a chance.
Thinking of this, Pan Long couldn't help but laugh.
Imagine that everyone else is fighting hard, and it's not uncommon to fight bloody battles. Only he is leisurely and leisurely watching the excitement in the sky, and he may also make two comments when he looks at it, such as "Master Hong, cut him in the middle" and so on.
"Hmm...... If you can get a bottle of iced Coke, a bucket of fries, and watch the excitement while drinking Coke and eating fries, it would be perfect!"
However, this is not possible, there are french fries in this world - it is said that they were also invented by Wen Chaogong. But there really is no coke in this world, only herbal tea.
Herbal tea with French fries is not perfect after all.
Pan Long shook his head, a little regretful.
He thought about it again, but he thought it was funny...... When the time comes, his appearance will definitely be very inadequate, and he will be full of hatred.
But he didn't go to rob the big demon with others, no matter how bad he was, it would be no problem.
Can those people still put what they want and not grab it, and come to fight with him for this idle breath?
Impossible, they're not stupid!
