Chapter 827: Steam Chicken

It wasn't that he wanted to notice the three-flowered cat, but that his attention was attracted by the cat.

There is a subtle difference between the two. He had slowly realized that his cultivation had reached the realm of the Supreme Being, and he had entered a certain extremely mysterious state. To use a less appropriate analogy, everything between heaven and earth revolves around one's own mind.

His perception and consciousness have become extremely powerful, and if he encounters something and he has no interest in it, the subconscious mind will filter it out before his consciousness - he knows what it is, what it is in at the moment, and he will not devote the slightest attention to it.

It was as if there was an additional loyal and attentive servant of thought in his mind, who removed all distractions for him, and told him to focus only on what was really useful and of real interest. When ordinary people observe and think, they are always inevitably disturbed by distracting thoughts. Some people go into a brief state of emptiness when they concentrate on one thing, and even when someone shouts to him, he doesn't hear it. Li Yunxin's current situation is that he is in this state of emptiness at any time. But when someone called him out, he could hear him, but he couldn't interfere with it in his heart.

That's what we call world insight—a concentration that is difficult to describe in proper words.

But when he saw this three-flowered cat, his will went against his heart. This made him move slightly in his heart and stop.

The cat was dirty, and the fur on its back was tangled into locks and mud almost covered its true color. Crippled on one of his front legs, lying under the pyre and licking that leg occasionally, and licking the snow on the ground. It's skinny and skinny, and it seems like I haven't eaten for a long time.

In this day and age, in such a place, the disabled cat did not survive as easily as it did in his day - there was not much food to throw away for a stray cat that had lost the ability to hunt.

It's dirty and thin, so it's hard to tell if it's "the three flowers".

Li Yunxin stared at her for a while, not seeing sanity in her eyes. But it's better to take a step forward and catch it and take a good look.

But the cat stood up alertly, glanced at him, and turned his head to flee with his tail between his legs.

He picked his fingers, and the cat was imprisoned by power. Then the dirt on the back exploded into dust, which quickly dissipated, and the fur became smooth and shiny again.

Her coat color markings are the same as "the three flowers".

The cat was half-hung in the air and began to struggle, teeth and claws. He even lowered his ears and shrunk his nose to ha. But soon realizing that he could not get out of this predicament, he only groaned and whined.

This person and a cat, looking at each other on the street when people came and went but couldn't notice them, Li Yunxin sighed lightly: "Come out." ”

After a while, the door to the thatched hut next to it opened. A man in colorful clothes first poked out his face to look at Li Yunxin, and then squeezed out one by one, with a flattering smile on his face: "Oops...... Dragon King...... Master...... President, do you see if it's okay for the little one to do here—"

Li Yunxin smiled: "Good job." When I came, I had already heard of the prestige of Brother Pheasant on the road. ”

He raised his hand again: "What's wrong with her?"

The pheasant rubbed his hands flattered: "Oops, she...... Injured by a demon king. I bumped into it and saved it. ”

His face became gloomy again: "It's a pity that my cultivation and sanity can't be kept." ”

"What about the Demon King?"

"Here. The pheasant pointed to his neck. There is a loyal black fur collar around the colorful clothes, which looks extravagant, "It's a bear demon." ”

Then he said, "The Dragon King ......"

Li Yunxin asked bluntly: "Want to save her?"

The pheasant took a deep breath: "After all, she was the one who gave our senior brothers a few lectures. Now Shuk and Sky are gone, and the sheriff has not been able to find his whereabouts for the time being. It's just me and Jiaxin in the city...... Although she ......"

He looked at Li Yunxin's face carefully: "Although she was not of the same mind as us in the past. But it didn't hurt us, and it didn't hurt you. Now that I've come to this point, I can't bear it. ”

Li Yunxin only said "um", and his face did not change much. The door of the earthen house was open, and Li Yunxin walked in from the pheasant.

The house looks dilapidated on the outside, but clean on the inside. The walls were painted with white plaster, and covered with bamboo curtains. There is not much furniture, there is a bed, a chair, a desk, and a bookshelf. There are no superfluous objects except for them, which shows that the owner should be indifferent to fame and fortune, poor and happy, and have a little interest.

The pheasant followed up, and saw Li Yunxin reach out and dig it out of his sleeve, find a scroll, and put it on the table to unfold.

He recognized it. When he walked all the way to the East China Sea with Li Yunxin, he saw him open and take a look several times. It is the "Emperor's Opinion Map". The map details the trends of the 36 countries in the Chinese mainland.

Li Yunxin looked down and said, "Where did you save her?"

The pheasant hurriedly leaned over and pointed, "Here." Tatsukuni here. At that time, the Rong army was attacking the old capital of Chenguo, and the emperor of Chenguo summoned several demon kings to help. As a result, before the Rong army attacked the city, the demon king made a sexual attack in the city, killing people and eating people, and the city was destroyed by itself. That's where I saved her. ”

Li Yunxin glanced at him: "You were with Rong Jun at the time?"

The pheasant hurriedly said: "I was taken back to the land by the Ninth Prince before, and I was passing through the Chen Kingdom. Seeing that the Rong army was attacking the city, and thinking that Emperor Rong was also the Dragon King's person, he helped out——"

"Hmm. Li Yunxin said meaninglessly, "You miss the old." But remember, we have nothing to do with Emperor Rong after that. ”

The pheasant was stunned for a moment, and then surprised: "Ah? Dragon King, should I definitely offend you? The other person is not bad-this place was still flat before a month, I remembered the matter of the little demon protector and went to Rongcheng to find him." He happily sent a large army to help me build the city, and said that this Weicheng will only be Weicheng in the future, not the Weicheng of Rongguo, I still think, this person is very righteous!"

Li Yunxin raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

He really didn't know about it. But the pheasant thought that his expression was not sincere surprise, but teasing. Then he sighed and said, "Dragon King...... I kind of like that guy. The man acted like a demon, not like a person. Cheerful and funny—it is said that few emperors are as interesting as he is. You once said that if you ask him to run the world and gather believers, we can have a steady stream of incense. I see that he has done a good job of the Divine Dragon Sect now, and the whole Rong Kingdom is worshipping you-"

Li Yunxin smiled: "Then according to you, what should I do to him?"

"According to me—" The pheasant said these three words, and suddenly froze.

Then a dense cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

He suddenly came to his senses, or rather, he suddenly realized...... What's wrong with you?

Suddenly it became a lot of words. poured out everything he thought in his heart, and even tried to instruct himself as the dragon king "how to do"!

Are you crazy!?

Although he is a subordinate of Li Yunxin, and he can be regarded as having incense, he knows that after all, he was just a bird and beast that has not yet transformed and has just opened his mind. It was the whim of the dragon king—and by no means any kindness—that he got the chance, and in a very short period of time, he had the current atmosphere and achievements. But these demons are different from Liu Gongzan and Jiu Gongzi.

That Liu Gongzan has been with this dragon king since he was at the end of his life, and he has a very deep affection with him. If Li Yunxin is not there, Liu Gongzan will be their master.

And the ninth prince has a very special bond with Li Yunxin. Identity and status are also incomparable to these little demons. If Liu Gongzan is not there, the ninth prince is also half a master.

And they ...... It's just a "capable subordinate" of the dragon king. When the call is smooth, he will give some smiling faces and gentle attitudes, and pass on some methods. However, the intimacy here is insurmountable.

I don't know what's going on in my heart right now...... actually poured out all the thoughts - you must know that this dragon king has always been a ruthless character who smiles at people one moment and turns his face to kill people the next moment, but I'm afraid that now he is not happy in his heart!

As soon as he thought of this, the pheasant knelt on the ground with a puff and lowered his head: "The villain should die, the villain has lost his words, how can the villain be worthy of instructing the Lord how to do it!"

Li Yunxin looked at him like this and laughed: "Neurotic." What kind of thing is this? I'm really asking you -- how do you want me to reciprocate?"

The pheasant pondered on the ground for a long time. Realizing that Li Yunxin's tone should be really lifeless, he dared to raise his head slowly: "I...... He...... I said I wanted to practice. I have the Dharma handed down by the Lord, but I didn't dare to give it to him without permission. only said that he would wait until he saw the dragon king and then ask the dragon king to decide. ”

Li Yunxin waved his hand slightly and held him up. After thinking about it, he shook his head: "Anything is fine." This alone will not work. ”

The pheasant blinked: "...... Why is that?"

Li Yunxin thought about it again and said seriously: "We just defeated the Xuanmen. Only then will the nations of the world no longer be constrained by those cultivators, and they can compete with each other. Although this competition is not fair. ”

"But at worst, people use their own strength to do something. You don't know how far the people on the Middle Land could have gone in these tens of thousands of years without the oppression of the Xuanmen. But I know. ”

"You should definitely be a person in this world, and you feel that the strongest power in this world is cultivation and supernatural powers. But it's not — it's far more powerful than that. And not to benefit thousands or tens of thousands of people, but to benefit everyone in the world. ”

"Ying Jie will soon become the hegemon of the Central Continent. His words and deeds, his preferences, will have a huge impact on the people of the world in the future. I can make him practice. But if he does, the emperor will like Shinto, and everyone in the world will like it. And at that time, without the constraints of the Xuanmen, cultivation will become the mainstream of this world. ”

"After a while, dignitaries and dignitaries won't even need to take any cars when they travel. As long as the practitioner has a talisman and a thought, it will be convenient. Then they will go down the wrong path. Li Yunxin said in a low voice, "Shrinking in the eggshell, I feel that I have insight into everything in the world." But I don't know that outside this shell, there is something more worth pursuing, and it is also the only way out. ”

The pheasant pondered carefully for a while. Although he couldn't understand every word Li Yunxin said, he vaguely knew that the Lord seemed to be saying that if the cultivation of mortals in the world became a trend, it would cover their eyes, so that they could not see other more valuable things.

He frowned. Just as he was about to think about it again, Li Yunxin had already seen his thoughts. He smiled: "Ask you." Look around, this room. They made wood and made tables, chairs, and benches. And he worked the clay and built a wall. But a long time ago, people didn't know about these things. Still living in caves and eating raw food. ”

"Is it these things—these things that ordinary people can also be fed up, this kind of progress—whether they are made by cultivators, or by people who don't know how to cultivate?"

The pheasant understood what Li Yunxin was going to say. But he still thought about it: "Can ...... Practicing this kind of thing, as long as there are still people who can cultivate supernatural powers, it is forbidden to do so. ”

Li Yunxin nodded: "I know." But in fact, the practice and the other thing I said – human technology and progress may not be incompatible. I'm just afraid that they will see one and lose the other. Just like it has been for 40,000 years. ”

He stopped, reached out and tapped lightly on the table. He raised his hand and swiped a few more times in the void. Then a clear light flashed, and a strange-looking thing fell into his palm.

"If you want to repay him for building the city, give him this. Tell him that if he studies it thoroughly and thinks it out, this thing can bring him more powerful power than cultivation and supernatural powers. ”

The pheasant hurriedly stretched out his hand and took it carefully.

The thing in his hand has been moving non-stop and regularly.

It is made of colored glass. A large box with two small boxes connected by thin pipes.

There is a cloud of black gas in the small box on the left, and a cloud of white gas in the small box on the right. As soon as the pheasant probed a little, he immediately realized that these two masses were extremely pure yin and yang qi, and the demonic power contained in them was ...... I'm afraid it will be inexhaustible even for thousands of years.

The yin and yang qi in the two small boxes passed through the tube into the big box. The two gases intersected, and they burst into flames immediately. But the big box imprisoned the deflagration, so the resulting power could only rush upwards - on top of the big box, there was a baffle, and an iron cone was attached to the baffle.

So the baffle was pushed up, and the cone popped up. When the force generated by the deflagration is reduced, the baffle falls again, and the process is repeated again.

The pheasant thinks this should be a weapon. But you can't find the right way to master it. He also realized that the force of the deflagration in the locket was actually very small—the small iron cone pushed by it might not even pierce two layers of cotton.

He looked at Li Yunxin suspiciously. Seeing Li Yunxin, he coughed: "I don't know the prototype and principle of the steam engine." Get any one out. But it's enough. I gave this to him after I left and told him that I didn't support his practice. ”

The pheasant didn't dare to ask what the "steam chicken" was anymore - he was afraid that Li Yunxin would be interested in refining himself into that thing for a while, so he hurriedly used his magic power to put away this weapon.

Then he said, "Lord, then...... Sanhua Niangniang, she-"

Li Yunxin sighed: "You are really going to make trouble for me." ”
