Chapter 41: Mistaken for a Great God
The eighth day of the second month of the 71st year of the Great Qiankang Dynasty, the time of Youshi, the Crystal Palace of the East China Sea】
Prime Minister Gui Cheng carried Zhu Wuneng back to the East China Sea. He took Zhu Wuneng down to the bottom of the sea together, entered the Crystal Palace, and met the Dragon King Ao Guang. Ao Guang took the golden "Shooting Bowl" handed over by Zhu Wuneng, and finally showed a rare look of joy, and said approvingly: "You rammer, I can't see that there are still some means, and I finally took back my rainy treasure!"
Ao Ying, the third princess beside Ao Guang, also said happily: "Brother Zhu, you are so amazing!"
Ao Guang suddenly remembered something, so he asked, "Zhu Tianpeng, how is that eight-headed snake?"
"I was cut off eight snake heads by my eldest brother with a sword, and I have already dreamed of returning to the West at this time!" Zhu Wuneng blurted out without thinking.
Ao Guang snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "How did you get such a great ability? It turns out that it is all the credit of that young man!
Prime Minister Guicheng, who was standing next to Zhu Wuneng, hurriedly said: "Qiqi Dragon King, Xu Gongzi is ...... He's gone!"
"The others are gone, and what about my 'double-strand sword'?" Ao Guang immediately asked.
Gui Cheng looked at Zhu Wuneng's back, and the two long swords on Zhu Wuineng's back at this time were the treasures of the sword, one of which was the double-strand sword in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.
Zhu Wuneng tightened the two long swords behind him, and said in an urn voice: "I have promised my eldest brother that the two strands of swords will be sent to Chang'an!"
"How can this be reasonable!" the old dragon king said angrily: "When will it be your turn to call the shots of my Dragon Palace?"
"No, I promised my eldest brother, this double-strand sword is my eldest brother's!" Zhu Wuneng said proudly.
The old dragon king was so angry that his beard trembled, and he scolded angrily: "You...... You greedy rammer! These two swords are the treasures of my Dragon Palace, how can you give them away indiscriminately?! You bring them to me...... You can't take it!"
Ao Guang saw that Zhu was incompetent and intended to play tricks, and he couldn't help but be annoyed in his heart. As soon as he finished speaking, he actually got up from his dragon chair, suddenly rushed behind Zhu Wuneng, and reached out to snatch his double-strand sword.
"No, I just won't give it to you!" Zhu Wuneng hurriedly turned around, he raked the three-toothed nail in his hand horizontally, and was about to fight the old dragon king......
At this moment, two voices sounded almost simultaneously:
"Daddy, don't be angry!" The third princess, Ao Ying, hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed his father'......s hand, and begged bitterly: "For the sake of Brother Zhu helping you kill the basilisk and recapture the reincarnation, give him this sword!
"Tiancang! don't do it!" Prime Minister Turtle also stopped Zhu Wuneng, and slowly persuaded: "Do you have something to say! Even if you want to help Gongzi Xu get the sword, you should also plead with Lord Long......" The Prime Minister Turtle spoke slowly, and at the same time continuously winked at Zhu Wuneng's small eyes. He said in his heart, Our Dragon King His Majesty has the best face, even if you want to take the double-strand sword for yourself, you have to politely plead with the Dragon King! You helped the Dragon King regain the rain magic weapon today, and the third princess helped you speak, the Dragon King's heart softened, and maybe he agreed to your plea. I think that the two-strand sword is in the "Tianbao Weapon Spectrum" in your world, it is nothing more than a two-star medium weapon, such a sword, in our East China Sea Dragon Palace, how many are there, and this one is missing? !
According to Prime Minister Gui's words, as long as you, Zhu Wuneng, are willing to plead in a low voice, this double-strand famous sword, the old dragon king will basically agree to send it to you. It's a pity that Zhu Wu's incompetence is also a bull's temper. He thought in his heart, when my old Zhu was in the Heavenly Court in the past, there were 100,000 heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals under him, but he was much more powerful than you, the dragon king under the water, why do you want me to beg you at this time?!
Seeing that Zhu Wuyi refused to give in, how could the Dragon King of the East China Sea bow his head. He pointed at Zhu Wuneng, opened a pair of dragon eyes, and said angrily: "My double-strand sword, do you give it or not?!"
"Don't give! Just don't give!" Zhu Wuneng replied proudly. Look at his face, as if he wants to say goodbye to this old dragon king.
"You...... You...... You wait!" The old dragon king's face changed suddenly when he saw the other famous sword on Zhu Wuneng's back, and he immediately asked, "Where did you get that sword?"
"What's the matter, that sword was picked up by my eldest brother, and I have to help him take it to Chang'an!" Zhu Wuneng replied.
Ao Guang sneered and said, "Picked it up? This is the 'Cloud Thunder Two Swords' in the hands of the Kunlun Yuan Sage of Shushan! You think it's a woodcutter, you can pick it up if you say it's picked up!"
Zhu Wuneng said disapprerovingly: "It was my eldest brother who picked it up from the ground, how are you doing?"
"Bring it and show me!" Ao Guang stretched out his hand, still saying angrily. However, looking at the look on his face, it has eased a lot.
"Brother Zhu, you can show my father!" The third princess, Ao Ying, walked behind Zhu Wuneng, took down the Tianyun Sword, and handed it into the hands of her father.
Ao Guang took the long sword, drew the sword out of its sheath, and suddenly saw a burst of golden light flashing on the blade, so bright that he could barely open his eyes. He held the sword in his hand, and made a few strokes in the air, only to see the tip of the sword pointing, and from time to time there would be a burst of light from the blade, like lightning, even in the crystal palace at the bottom of the sea, that burst of shining light was still extremely dazzling. Ao Guang couldn't help but admire: "Kunlun Yuansheng's 'Cloud and Thunder Two Swords' is really worthy of its name! With just this Tianyun Sword, the brilliance is like lightning...... It's a pity that there is only one of the two swords today!"
Ao Guang returned the sword into the sheath and said, "Zhu Tianpeng, it's okay to give you my double-strand sword! However, this Tianyun Sword has to stay in my Dragon Palace!"
As soon as the old dragon king said this, the other three people in the palace reacted differently.
"No!" Zhu Wuneng immediately refused, and as he spoke, he was about to pounce on him and grab the sword with Ao Guang.
"Daddy!" the third princess Ao Ying didn't expect it, she took advantage of the old dragon king's unpreparedness, hurriedly stepped forward with an arrow, and took back the Tianyun Sword from Ao Guang's hand.
"Ahem!" Prime Minister Gui shook his head slightly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He said secretly, thinking that the world-moving "Cloud and Thunder Second Sword" was a four-star spiritual weapon!
A rare treasure in the sword, and it is also a sacred object that the Shushan faction regards as if it were his life! Your old dragon king wants to exchange for a four-star spiritual weapon in the hands of others with only one of his own two-star medium weapons, and this transaction is really greedy (do you really treat Zhu Tianpeng as a stupid pig?)......
Ao Ying handed back the Tianyun Sword to Zhu Wuneng and admonished her father: "Daddy! Since this Tianyun Sword is the head of the Shushan Sect, what do we want it to do?
Ao Guang shook his head and sighed: "It's really a big woman! Your father likes to collect treasures, what's wrong?!Have you ever seen the rich man in this world, who thinks he has a lot of treasures?!" he said, while returning to his dragon chair and taking his seat, twisting two long dragon whiskers in his hands, thinking in his heart for a moment, then said to Zhu Wuneng:
"Zhu Tianpeng, count it on! Today, for my precious daughter's sake, if you want this double-strand sword, you can take it! However, you have to keep the three-toothed nail rake I gave you before!"
"Daddy!" Ao Ying said hurriedly. She thought to herself, if my brother Zhu didn't have the support of the three-toothed nail rake, and he returned to Chang'an as a mortal, would he not be able to become as ignorant and confused as before?
"Shut up!" the daughter of the Old Dragon Dynasty said angrily: "It's all because you are used to him, and he is so unruly in front of this king!
Seeing that the old dragon king was really angry, the third princess Ao Ying was also so frightened that she didn't dare to squeak.
Ao Guang said to Zhu Wuneng under the seat: "Zhu Tianpeng, be reasonable, you helped this king retrieve the treasures of my Dragon Palace today, and this king should give you a gift as a thank you." However, before, this king has made a three-tooth nail rake for you. According to the king's previous promise, you can only choose one of these three-toothed nail rakes and double-strand swords!"
According to Ao Guang's plan in his heart, Zhu Wuneng was bound to be reluctant to give up the three-toothed nail rake cast by a thousand years of cold iron. He had promised him personally that when Zhu Wuunable retrieved the Regal Bowl, he would give him a treasure as a token of gratitude, but it was only one piece. Now, if he is reluctant to carry the three-toothed nail rake in his hand, then under the stimulation of his own words, the double-strand sword should be obediently served......
No, at this moment, Zhu Wuneng Niu lost his temper, so he slammed the three-toothed nail rake in his hand to the ground, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't want it......! I don't know that Lao Zhu's 'nine-tooth nail rake' is tens of millions of times stronger than yours!"
After saying that, Zhu Wuneng did not bow and said goodbye, so he turned around, held his head high, and strode out. Leaving the old dragon king sitting on the dragon chair, pointing to Zhu Wuineng's back, his beard trembled with anger, and said angrily: "You...... Just these three teeth, or I supported the heavenly Taibai, and I finally punched it out for you!"
......
Zhu Wuneng got out of the Crystal Palace and wanted to jump to the sea, but he heard Ao Ying calling behind him: "Brother Zhu, wait for me!"
Zhu Wuneng stopped and turned around, and said to the third princess of the East China Sea and Yan: "Long'er, I'm leaving!
Ao Ying walked up to Zhu Wuneng, took his hand, and asked softly, "Brother Zhu, are you really going to Chang'an?"
"Ahem! I promised my eldest brother that I would take these two swords to Chang'an and hand them over to him. Also, although your father has a magic weapon for rainfall, if he wants to rain in time, he still needs to be summoned by Li Chunfeng, an old Taoist in Chang'an City. I went to Chang'an this time to find the old way as soon as possible......" Zhu Wuneng sighed and replied. Although he was also very reluctant in his heart, however, after all, he went down to the mortal world with a mission, and he had promised his eldest brother before, at this moment, he had to go......
"Okay!" Ao Ying nodded and said: "It's been more than a year since the drought in Daqian, and my father doesn't say it, but he is actually more anxious than anyone else! Brother Zhu, when you arrive at the Xuandu Temple in Chang'an City, and after meeting Daochang Li, you must not collide like this! You just need to tell Daochang Li that my father is waiting for Daochang to do something. As soon as Daochang Li is summoned, my father will immediately rain ......"
"Don't worry, Long'er, I know......! Go!" Zhu Wuneng finished speaking, tightened the two famous swords on his back, and swam towards the sea with all his might.
"Brother Zhu, take care! In the future, you will not have the spiritual power of the three-toothed nail rake, so you have to be more careful......" Ao Ying raised her head and waved to Zhu Wuneng outside the Crystal Palace.
It wasn't until she saw Zhu Wucan's back rise far away and disappear into the sea that Ao Ying turned around and walked back. As she walked, she secretly thought that Brother Zhu had no three-tooth nail rake in his hand, and it was not a way to go on like this. Brother Zhu's original nine-tooth nail rake, I heard him say that it was accidentally lost on the way down to earth. My father repeatedly said that he didn't know the whereabouts of the nine-toothed nail rake, but in fact, he must have known it in his heart. How shall I find out the whereabouts of that treasure from the mouth of my father?
......
In the Crystal Palace, after Zhu Wuneng left, the old dragon king asked Prime Minister Gui Cheng without worry: "Prime Minister, did you really hear that his eldest brother had told him to look for Li Chunfeng?"
Prime Minister Gui hurriedly replied: "Qiqi Dragon King, when they were on my back, I heard it very true, Xu Gongzi solemnly told Tianpeng to find Li Chunfeng as soon as possible, and asked the Xuandu Guan Lord to do it as soon as possible, so as to send a message for the prince......"
The old dragon king couldn't help but sigh and said, "If it weren't for this rammer, this king's magic weapon would not be able to be retrieved in the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue?"
Prime Minister Gui Cheng bowed and saluted: "The Dragon Lord is benevolent and compassionate, and he is sympathetic to his subordinates everywhere. Rao is like this, the prince also gave him a treasure, and he did not embarrass him...... The prince has done his best to Tianpeng!"
The old dragon king pointed at the turtle prime minister, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "When will you also learn the ability to pat on the back in the world? To be honest, I am too mean today."
Finish. With his merits today, giving him this double-strand sword is really nothing. I just want him to be soft, who let him be so arrogant and arrogant in front of this king when he was in the heavenly court?!"
Prime Minister Gui smiled and said silently, he said in his heart Back then, you stopped the third princess and didn't let her meet Tianpeng, do people have a good face for you?
"However, this rammer is already as stupid as a pig! Now that he has lost the protection of the three-toothed nail rake, will he become confused and forget to find Li Chunfeng after he arrives in Chang'an?"
Prime Minister Gui thought for a moment in his heart, then bowed down and said: "Lord Long, why don't you let Weichen go to Chang'an with you, right? ”
The old dragon king stroked his two dragon whiskers in his hands and said slowly: "This is ...... It stands to reason that it is better for us Shui and the Terran to try not to come into contact with each other. However, this time it is about the lives of millions of human races, and I can only work hard for you!"
......
......
At about the same time, Kamo and Yagyu had also returned to Kyoto Castle in Kuwakuni. Liu Sheng didn't care that it was already dark, so he hurriedly went home to wash up, changed into a clean official uniform, and then entered the palace overnight to meet Emperor Sangguo.
When Emperor Nasang heard that the great snake that had brought disaster to the world was finally killed by several heroes, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He asked, "Who died at the hands of the big snake?" Yanagi did not dare to hide it, so he replied to Emperor Sang that the person who killed the snake was none other than the number one swordsman in the Kyoto Sword Fighting Tournament, named Susanoo.
Emperor Sang was eager to summon Susanoo to the palace for an audience. At this moment, Yanagi replied that after Susanoo killed the big snake, he had disappeared......
It turned out that Xu Ke at this time had already returned to the Void Building. Since Xu Ke crossed the Void Gate on the back of the turtle, as He Mao said, all the people who Xu Ke saw when he crossed the Void Gate have forgotten all their memories of Xu Ke at this moment.
No matter how much Emperor Sang asked, Yanagi only knew that the name of the snake killer was "Susanoo", and he had won the first place in a sword fight before. As for what this person looks like, what age he is, and where he comes from...... Liu Sheng's heart was at a loss, and he had almost forgotten him.
Emperor Sang was helpless, so he didn't ask any more. In any case, the Great Snake of Yaki was killed by the heroes of Sang Kingdom, which was a very happy event. Therefore, early the next morning, Emperor Sang issued several holy decrees, in addition to praising Yoshio Yagyu, Tadayuki Kamo, and Ihetaki, he also issued a notice to the whole country to find the whereabouts of the snake killer "Susanoo......
So, as the emperor's edict was widely spread, the whole country knew that the hero who killed the Yaki Orochi was named Susanoo. However, what the people of Sang couldn't understand was that the hero named "Susanoo" had evaporated from the world since then, and no one had ever seen him. In order to meet the hero in person, Queen Sang even gave a heavy reward in the edict. But no matter how many golden beauties and high-ranking titles the Sang Emperor promised, the world-famous "Susanoo" never appeared.
Now that he has killed the Yaqi Snake with his own hands, since he has become a great hero admired by all the people, and since the emperor has given countless money, beauties, high-ranking officials, and celebrities...... But why did he still refuse to show up? Such an abnormal act caused endless speculation among the people and different opinions, and over time, it was rumored that he was miraculous......
Some people say that Susanoo is a great god sent by heaven. He was a son of Izanagi, the ancient father of the Kuwa Kingdom. He went down to the mortal world in order to kill the Yaqi Snake, and after the deed was completed, he returned to the sky and became his god.
Some people say that Susanoo was a sea god who saw the Yaki snake making trouble on the sea, causing rough waves and endangering the safety of fishermen, so he couldn't help but take action and cut off eight snake heads, and since then the sea has been calm and the people have been at peace.
It is also said that Susanoo is actually a god of destruction, who is sometimes heroic and sometimes fierce. After he killed the serpent, he disappeared and may reappear in the world decades later.
As a result, the "Susanoo" who killed the Yaki Orochi, after countless word of mouth, became a great god known to men, women and children throughout the Mulberry country, and was worshiped by countless good men and women with incense, and has been passed down endlessly......
However, no one could have imagined that whether it was the god of the sea or the god of destruction, this "Susanoo" was actually just an ordinary mortal. He is just good at swordsmanship, and everything else is no different from an ordinary person. Moreover, he is also a native of Qianguo, a native of Jiangnan in Qianguo, who is only 21 years old.
Of course, in the entire Sang country, there is one more person who knows the truth about "Susanoo" at this moment, and he is naturally He Mao Zhongyuki.
After Kamo returned to Kyoto, he sent a message to Chisato, the lord of the Ihe Valley, overnight, asking him to escort Inada Hime to Kyoto as soon as possible.
Fourteen days later, at noon on the 22nd of February, he personally drove a two-wheeled carriage to deliver Inada Ji to Ka Mao's house.
Although Yi Helong failed to get the "Grass Pheasant Sword" that he had in mind, after Emperor Sang issued an order to praise him vigorously, he was also inexplicably proud in his heart. In addition, Emperor Sang also gave him a lot of treasures, gold and silver in Yihe Valley, and since then, Yihe Valley's status in the martial arts has greatly climbed to a new level. He was naturally even more happy, and he was also unusually polite to He Mao. The two of them spoke a little, and Yi Helong took his leave.
He Mao looked at Inada Hime's face and saw that her face was slightly pale, and her expression was tired. After a few greetings, he was still a little uneasy, so he stretched out his hand to check the pulse of Inada Ji. In Kuwakuni, in addition to being known as the "first onmyoji", this medical skill is also famous in Kyoto and quite successful.
I didn't want to, He Mao stretched out his second finger in the middle of the food, and grabbed the door of the rice field Ji Cun Guanqi vein, and after only a moment, his face changed, and he said:
"Rice Field, do you know? You're pregnant!"
