Chapter 1146 Rescue the prince!

"no no!!"

With the chain around his neck, Nori Shinji struggled desperately, but he could only feel himself rising lightly, and when he turned his head, he happened to see the most familiar body, curled up on the bed in a painful position, already out of breath.

he died.

Nori Shinji looked at his dead body, and wanted to burst into tears, but found that his face was dry, and the tears could only flow into his stomach, and even his emotions were leaving quickly with the tightening of the chains, and he went crazy again Struggling: "I don't want to go to hell! Let me go! Let me go!"

The ghost guard's face without facial features came closer: "You were a key witness in the bribery case during your lifetime. The Zhao family is very powerful in the underworld. The criminal Ding Thief has been silenced. Do you want to be like him and end up in an accident?"

Nori Shinji said sadly: "I am dead, what else can happen to me?"

There were actually two ghost messengers who came to seduce the soul, and the other said: "The dead can speak, and only when they are beaten out of their wits will they shut up completely!"

Nori Shinji trembled all over, and murmured: "Why is this...why is this..."

Guichai said righteously: "Who told you that you would rather harm yourself than buy corrupt officials and cut your lifespan? Now you just deserve what you deserve, and you have to suffer for yourself!"

Nori Shinji was stunned: "Self-destructive virtue?"

The ghost was puzzled: "You don't know? How did you learn the incantation? Didn't the person who taught it warn you not to use it indiscriminately?"

Nori Shinji trembled again, this time completely collapsed: "No...impossible...he won't harm me...how could he harm me! You must be talking nonsense! Nonsense!!"

Another ghost messenger hurriedly introduced: "This is our Marquis Soul Envoy, Judge Qi of the Procuratorate admires him the most, and relies on him as a capable general, how could he deceive you?"

The ghost messenger also raised his airs, and said in a very authentic tone: "In the past, people in the mortal world didn't believe that our underworld would do bad things, but now they don't believe that our underworld will do good things. This trend must be killed! Nori Shinji, sophistry is useless Yes, you go back with us, explain the problem clearly, and strive for leniency!"

The chains tightened suddenly, and Shinji struggled and screamed, stretching out his hand towards the place of retreat, his voice became weaker and weaker: "Father save me!! Father save me! Save me..."

He who was lying on the bed didn't know that Tao Zhongwen was ordered to enter Xiyuan long before he died.

"Long live, long live, long live, Your Majesty!"

Walking into Jinshen Abode, Tao Zhongwen knelt down to pay respects, and raised his hands high to offer the pill box: "Specially present 'Jiji Pill', congratulations on His Majesty's birthday!"

Lu Fang took it and sent it to the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams bed, where the pill appeared.

Jiajing's birthday is indeed approaching, so he lightly picked up a "Jiji Pill" and looked at it for a moment, with unpredictable joy and anger on his face: "Tao Tianshi has a heart...give him a seat."

Tao Zhongwen got up, sat down on Xiudun, and began to speak the Dharma: "Your Majesty is intelligent, wise and decisive, and has the hope of longevity, but the most important thing in the golden elixir road is to proceed step by step..."

Jiajing has always attached the most importance to the matter of practice, sitting upright and listening, the servants around him also pricked up their ears, but they quickly dismissed it.

Because they could tell that this celestial master was giving eye drops to that real person Li, implying that the other party was greedy for short-term success, and bewitched His Majesty to blindly refine alchemy, only seeking immediate benefits, regardless of the long-term future.

The eunuchs don't know the truth, whether it is right or not, they only know one thing, since Li Zhenren taught His Majesty the alchemy method, the elixir made by His Majesty is a real panacea, and after eating it, he will feel light and healthy, and aftertaste endless.

It's not as fearful as before, for fear that His Majesty will be in a bad mood, and anyone who refines a potion of pills will be exposed to rain and dew, and anyone may walk in and go out lying down...

For eunuchs who have never been favored by Tao Zhongwen, it would be much better for Li Zhenren even if he had never stepped into Xiyuan!

"What Tao Tianshi said is not without reason!"

After Jiajing listened calmly, his expression was indifferent, and he didn't discuss and ask like before, put down the pill box, and the matter of offering the pill was over.

As soon as the topic changed, the tone of this Da Mingzi began to become serious: "I invited the Celestial Master here to discuss the matter of praying for rain."

Tao Zhongwen knew that the ever-changing weather made people feel more blocked.

Historically, the Ming Dynasty was famous for its extreme weather, especially in the decades around 1600, natural disasters such as floods, droughts, earthquakes, locust plagues, and extreme cold never stopped, every year, The places are just different.

Whether it is the frequency of natural disasters, the scope of the disaster, or the degree of destruction, it is rare to look at history, and then there is a bad Wanli, where natural disasters and man-made disasters gather together, it is strange that the country does not go to extinction...

The Jiajing Dynasty was not that serious, but it was not much better. Before it was raining non-stop, there was a tendency of waterlogging, and now it has not rained for a long time, and there is a tendency of drought.

It just so happens that praying for rain is also one of Tao Zhongwen's skills. In history, he has made great contributions to praying for rain several times. In fact, he came forward at the right time and attributed the credit for the rain to himself.

Not to mention that this kind of thing is often used in religion, even civil and military officials have examples.

For example, when Xiong Tingbi visited Liaodong, he prayed in front of the statue of the City God, and agreed that it would rain within seven days. If it did not rain, the Temple of the City God would be demolished. Seeing the wind and thunder, and the torrential rain, since then "the Liao people regard it as a god".

This method of establishing authority through weather forecasts was very useful in ancient times, but in this world, praying for rain is really a method.

Tao Zhongwen raised his head slightly, his eyes glanced at the red flower on the emperor's chest, and he said: "The old minister should try his best, but the clouds and the rain, the three worlds are no bigger than the dragon king of the four seas, the capital has been protected by the dragon god, why not?" Let the god of the dragon king come forward?"

Jiajing's expression remained unchanged: "The dragon god is not comfortable with the drastic changes in the world, and it is difficult for Taoism to have spiritual food. Why bother with these things? Heavenly masters don't need to underestimate themselves. The people of Gyeonggi are eager for rain. The Taoist temple has been set up, and they are looking forward to practice. It will be in harmony with the world, and it will bless all people. !"

Tao Zhongwen's eyes were full of gloom, he stopped talking, and said: "Yes!"

Praying for rain during fasting and offering sacrifices requires setting up a dojo, setting up sacrifices, building sacrifices, praying, and finally triggering thunder, lightning and wind and rain. A good rain will greatly consume spiritual mana.

In the past, Tao Zhongwen, as a celestial master, was still willing to show his hand occasionally, but now he has felt Jiajing's indifference, knowing that in the heart of this mean and ungrateful emperor, he has only the last bit of use value left, and his thoughts are all turned to Li Shizhen and Dragon God went there...

He was extremely jealous of this, but he couldn't help admiring it.

After all, this emperor is extremely difficult to serve, and it can be seen from the important courtiers that Lu Fang has served by his side since the time of the palace, wholeheartedly protecting the lord. The favored ministers of the government and the public are actually ruling tools to ensure the enjoyment of cultivating Taoism, and they have no real closeness...

It was precisely because Tao Zhongwen had seen through this point that he set fire to the palace and proposed that the two dragons would not meet each other to stabilize his position. As a result, Li Shizhen had only appeared for a long time, and Jiajing paid such attention to it!
If you can't compete for favor, it's more straightforward to get rid of it.

Lan Daoxing and those people are nothing to be afraid of, as long as Li Shizhen is gone, the crisis will be solved by itself.

"I retire!"

After being ordered to pray for rain, under Jiajing's unfathomable gaze, Tao Zhongwen bowed out and left the Longevity Palace. Tao Shien, who was waiting outside, was sitting there with his body tense and motionless.

Tao Zhongwen came in front of him: "Let's go!"

Tao Shien got up quickly: "Father, Your Majesty..."

Tao Zhongwen said via voice transmission: "Your Majesty asked me to pray for rain. The preference is obvious, but this can also attract the idea of ​​​​the Dragon Lady. You should prepare the orb and the ghost ticket. If necessary, use both methods. Don't miss the opportunity!"

Tao Shien thought to himself that you were afraid that I would not die fast enough, so he took a deep breath and replied heavily, "Yes!"

Tao Zhongwen didn't care too much about the son's mental state. Anyway, he was forbidden by God, not afraid that the other party would lose control, so he took care of him a few more times and walked towards the dojo.

Tao Shien went out of Xiyuan, headed towards Tianshi Mansion immediately, returned home, and went to the main hall first.

The eldest brother Tao Shitong and the second brother Tao Shiliang were in the hall. The two sons of the Tao family who had no talent for cultivation and were only accepted by mortal officials stood up immediately, and said expectantly: "The third brother is back, father is going to Xiyuan, does your majesty have any orders?"

Tao Shien sighed intentionally: "Your Majesty's invitation is to make father pray for rain, and not to let the dragon god be tired, the preference is obvious..."

Tao Shitong and Tao Shiliang's expressions changed immediately, and they said in a shy voice, "Did I, Tao, really fall out of favor from now on?"

Tao Shien put it more seriously: "Brothers, now is a critical moment, you take your sister-in-law and nephew to another hospital to take shelter, be careful, and don't cause trouble!"

Tao Shitong nodded quickly: "Okay! Third brother, you should be careful too!"

Watching the two elder brothers leave, Tao Shien stepped into the spirit zone, took out the box, and ghost tickets flew out one after another, and began to throw coins: "Jiuyou Ghost Messenger, I need your help!"

"what happened?"

On the other side, Nori Shinji was in a daze at this moment, and was about to be dragged into the netherworld. The two ghost guards on the left and right froze suddenly, watching a jet-black column of air soaring into the sky that ordinary people could hardly see.

The gloomy light was blazing, and the cloudy wind drifted away, turning into bits of spiritual light, dancing like streams of light, and then forming a temporary passage, connecting the Nether Land and the Heavenly Master's Blessed Land.

The chain loosened a bit, and Shinji came back to his senses, terrified: "The evil forces in the underworld are too arrogant, they killed them directly?"

"What are you thinking? You are not qualified to launch such a battle!"

As soon as Hou Guicha finished speaking, he saw a burly giant ghost crawling out first, its whole body was gray red, its fangs were erected, its forehead was protruding, and the most striking thing was five blood-red eyes, irregular distributed on the face.

"The five-eyed ghost king..."

The great ghost kings in the underworld include the vicious ghost king, the great admonition ghost king, the Sancai ghost king, the thousand-eyed ghost king, the beast-eating ghost king, the disaster ghost king, the Qilishi king, and the Anazha king. The Netherworld is in chaos, and the one that appears now is already the more obedient ghost king among them, and is under the control of the Netherworld.

So following the five-eyed ghost king, another group of ghost messengers dressed as jailers with loose hair and holding a wooden sign with the word "Daily Patrol" on it flew out, which is exactly "Daily Tour God".

Then there are sixteen ghosts, all of them have small cheeks and red shoulders, and they are linked together arm in arm. They are the "night wandering gods".

These two types of hell gods all appear in Journey to the West. Wukong fights against the King of Golden Horn and King of Silver Horn, and tricks the clever insects to have treasures that can pretend to be heaven. The Jade Emperor said: "The old grandson converts to Zhengguo, and protects the Tang monk to go to the west to learn scriptures. The road is blocked by high mountains, and the master encounters hardships. I want to lure him to exchange for the treasure of the demon. I will worship him thousands of times and pretend to be closed to the old grandson." Half an hour will help you succeed. If Dao refuses for a while, go to the Lingxiao Palace and use your weapons!"

This arrogant threat was brought to the Lingxiao Hall by the Riyoushen. The Jade Emperor said that he could not pretend to be heaven, so the third prince Nezha thought of a clever way, borrowed the soap carving flag from Emperor Zhenwu, and displayed it on the Nantian Gate. , Close the sun, moon and stars, and perform a big show.

Naturally, there is no such relationship now, but there are ghost tickets flying all over the sky. When the two ghost messengers pulled Norishinji not far away and looked at this side, they were suddenly stunned.

Seeing Tao Shi'en slowly soaring into the air, a whirlwind blew up around him, and countless ghost tickets swirled around him. His appearance was plain and a little dirty, but now in the eyes of ghosts, he turned handsome.

Ri Youshen stepped forward first: "This Taoist priest, I am waiting for the invitation, what orders do I have?"

Tao Shien first grabbed a handful of ghost notes and stuffed them in. Anyway, he didn't write them, so he didn't feel bad at all, and he also had a different kind of pleasure.

Of course, business matters. After letting out a bad breath, he immediately said: "There is a dead soul hidden here in the blessed place. It is the late Prince of Ming Dynasty. He was imprisoned by evil spirits and cannot enter reincarnation. Please come here, poor Taoist priest. Just to rescue him!"

Hearing that it was the prince of a country whose soul could not enter the underworld, but was instead imprisoned privately, Day Tour God and Night Tour God skillfully stuffed the ghost ticket into their sleeves, and at the same time they both looked at the five-eyed ghost king.

The Five-Eyed Ghost King blinked his five big eyes, shot out a solid red light, glanced around, and soon landed on the closed stone room, and said in a stern voice: "Inside...ghost energy...rich...karma...extraordinary..."

"The prince of a country in the Yang Dynasty has huge karma involved, and this Daming in the Southern Zhanbu Prefecture is even more of a country!"

Day Youshen and Ye Youshen looked at each other with solemn expressions, not daring to neglect: "This matter is of great importance, we can't make decisions privately, we need to ask for instructions..."

Tao Shien didn't say anything, grabbed a lot of ghost tickets, and stuffed them: "Time is running out, I hope you will help, saving people is like putting out a fire, and the same is true for saving souls!"

Day Youshen and Ye Youshen pushed with their hands, but their strength was too weak, so they had to accept it, and said in a deep voice: "What the Taoist priest said is too reasonable, saving people is like putting out a fire, there is really no delay, please order!"

no way!He gave too much!

The key is that this kind of ghost ticket is accepted, and there is no future trouble.

Some things cannot be done, such as reducing the lifespan, that is a taboo in the underworld, and extending the lifespan by a year or so depends on the situation, and if the karma of karma is heavy, it cannot be done.

But now that he can get so many ghost tickets for rescuing the soul of a dead prince, it is simply an unparalleled job. What do you ask for?Just do it!

Tao Shi'en saw the enthusiasm of these yin divisions, and began to order: "There are still closed-door disciples in the blessed land spirit area, let them fall asleep first..."

"Good job!"

As soon as the token of Riyoushen was flipped, all the ghosts took action immediately.

There are also a group of disciples practicing in the blessed land. They thought this place was solid, but they never expected that the little celestial master became an inner ghost. He couldn't even utter a hasty exclamation, and was thrown down by ghost messengers.

After clearing the internal obstacles and confirming that there was no response from Tao Zhongwen, Tao Shien said again: "Please open up a channel to bring my helping hand here."

"It's easy to handle!"

Both the Day Traveling God and the Night Traveling God can go to the three worlds. Once the token is turned, a dark tunnel will immediately pass through, and then a beautiful figure in white clothes will appear on the opposite side, followed by Tao Yin and Chi Lian.

Tao Shien looked at Tao Yin and was completely relieved: "Brother, it's a good luck not to disgrace your life!"

Day Youshen and Ye Youshen looked at the leader, Qianying, with solemn expressions: "The aura of this spirit ghost... so pure..."

Compared with the previous image with disheveled hair, this time Xiaoqian's face is dignified and majestic, and the vast Yin Qi and pure Buddha's light surging from her body shocked all the ghosts in the Yin Division.

How did you cultivate it?
And Xiaoqian looked at the stone room and confirmed that the dead soul of the prince's brother was in it. She first pursed her lips nervously, and then showed her determination to take over the command:
"Start the rescue!"

　Thanks to book friends "Ge Tianming", "lazyfrog" and "Niu Wuji" for their rewards, and thanks to book friends "Niu Wuji" for becoming the leader of this book.
