Chapter 205 The Argument Avoiding God

"Teacher expected that Fang Yuanzi would come to meet him?"

Looking at the torrential river, the peasants in the distance are putting cables on the cargo ship and pulling it into the river so that it can set sail again.And Zhao Shu and Zhang Duanjing stood by the river, talking about the fight just now.

Zhang Duanjing said: "You opened the altar to patrol the territory, and I have been paying attention secretly. Although there will be no such powerful and evil spirits as the big snake Youzhu in Huaxu country now, it is not without traces of evil spirits. Didn't you just release a big monster before?" ?"

"Teacher, you mean Lord Cangyan?" Zhao Mi said, "I don't think he is evil, not to mention that the prohibition seal that True Lord Qingya imposed on him will be removed in a few years, and I just do it conveniently."

Zhang Duanjing asked: "If you hold the prohibition talisman and execute the law, Qingya Zhenjun will directly lift the seal?"

Zhao Mi thought for a while, and then said: "Anyway, I use the "Nine Heavens Ziwen Danzhang" as the foundation of my practice. As for what Qingya Zhenjun thinks, or whether Qingya Zhenjun is in charge, I don't know."

Zhang Duanjing was not surprised, and asked: "Do you think Qingya Wonderland is controlled by others?"

"Teacher, you guessed it yourself. I didn't say anything." Zhao Mi squatted down and drew a soul-shifting talisman on the muddy river beach with his finger as a brush.

This talisman can capture wandering souls in the world and make them attach to straw puppets, which is not a very serious technique.There are many warlocks who perform this technique on ordinary people, making them disturbed and haunted by evil spirits.

"The dove occupies the magpie's nest, and seizes the house to move?" Zhang Duanjing saw a subtlety from this talisman, which can be regarded as a tacit understanding between master and apprentice.

"Seize the house, um, this is more appropriate." Zhao Mi said with a smile: "To seize someone's house is to assume the throne."

"This is in line with my previous expectation." Zhang Duanjing asked again after being silent: "Where did the owner of the house go?"

"I heard from the servant of the nursing home that the owner was killed by the robbers who broke into the house. Many family members suffered misfortune, and most of the whole house was burned down." Zhao Mi waved the spell on the ground: "As a result, a distant relative came suddenly They took over the rest of the property. Others didn’t know about it, and they thought the original owner had always been there.”

"A robber? Well done, where did the robber come from?"

Zhao Mi said: "There is a sky beyond the sky, maybe it was attracted by others."

"Speak carefully." Zhang Duanjing interrupted immediately, and the river water rippled in front of him.

The reason why the conversation between master and apprentice is like a riddle is because the matter involves immortals and gods, and they cannot be easily named.If there is an act of calling the name, the other party may immediately respond.

Now Liang Tao's body is connected to the sky and the earth, and his popularity is even more intertwined with the Huaxu Kingdom. He has a sense of hearing and insight into the ten directions.It's hard for others to say that Zhao Mi is too deeply involved with him, because of the inheritance of the dharma lineage, once Zhao Mi mentions Liang Tao, he will probably be aware of it immediately.

Even if it is impossible for Liang Tao to stare at Zhao Mi all the time, he should not take it lightly. Even if Zhang Duanjing has set up restrictions around him to isolate magic spells and ghosts from prying eyes, who can guarantee that he can hide it from the current Liang Tao?This forced the master and apprentice to be careful in their actions and speech, and only speak after deliberation.

As for the evil god who attacked the Qingya Wonderland, Zhao Shu didn't know its origin, so it was hard to judge lightly, and it was not his turn to deal with it anyway.

"There is one more thing." Zhao Mi looked to the west: "You Xiong Kingdom sent Shangjing Zongmen here this time, I am afraid that it is not just to buy silk fabrics, but to collude with the powerful families in Huaxu to make the country Mergers are even worse, trying to stir up civil uprisings. Of course, things like spying on the military situation are probably indispensable.”

"I will report this matter to the lord, and step up precautions and investigations everywhere." Zhang Duan nodded, seeing Zhao Mi's pensive face, and asked, "What are you worried about?"

"Just now Fang Yuanzi said that I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals and leave no room for retreat." Zhao Mi said, "Maybe he wants to take advantage of the opportunity to shake my Dao heart, but what he said is not unreasonable."

"Now you have no way out." Looking at the waves of the river, Zhang Duanjing said, "Me neither."

……

"What? Wang Zhongding is dead?"

Luo Xixian was very shocked when he heard the news in Xingluo County's government office, and immediately asked the little official who came to report: "What's going on? I heard that Zhao Mi opened an altar to patrol the territory in Shangling County. Could it be that he did this?" for?"

The little official replied: "It is true that Marquis Zhenming took the initiative to lead troops to attack the Wang family's manor in Chiyang, but the specific circumstances are not clear. As for Wang Zhongding, it is rumored that he hanged himself to death."

Luo Xixian's expression was deep, and the little official said: "Lord Sheriff, Marquis Zhenming has sent someone to spread the word that he will arrive in Xingluo County soon, please Lord Sheriff to assist in the arrangement of the mandala."

"I see, you go down."

Luo Xixian concealed the change in his expression, and when the little official left, Xin Shunying turned out from the back hall and said, "I didn't expect our younger brother Zhao to become more and more powerful. Wang Zhongding said he would die, and the Chiyang Wang family didn't dare to resist." .”

"The lord of the country just used him to bring down the powerful in the country, not really a high position and power." Luo Xixian said displeased.

Xin Shunying shook her head lightly: "If Junior Brother Zhao is still as benevolent and cowardly as before, no matter how powerful the king gives him, he still can't bear it. Wang Zhongding, you and I have dealt with each other before, and of course he has a playful side. But the cultivation base and mana are top-notch among the younger generation in Chongxuan Hall. If Liang Guoshi hadn't insisted on praising Liang Shuo, Wang Zhongding might have come to Xingluo County."

"You mean that Wang Zhongding didn't commit suicide?" Luo Xixian asked.

"How is it possible?" Xin Shunying sat down and said, "Maybe, Junior Brother Zhao killed Wang Zhongding directly. It's just that this kind of news spread, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, so it was renamed Wang Zhongding and died by hanging himself."

Hearing this, Luo Xixian was extremely reluctant. How could the obedient Zhao Mi back then become what he is now?Facing the disciples of the Immortal Family in the Chongxuan Pavilion, how could they kill them mercilessly?
"Zhao... What exactly is he going to do when he opens the altar to patrol the territory?" Luo Xixian asked.

"Set up altars in various parts of the Huaxu Kingdom to prepare for future wars." Xin Shunying said: "Didn't the imperial edict come earlier? Xingluo County is the easiest place to come. In order to deal with the Excalibur, Zhao Xuedi was here. Many mandalas were arranged. After the banditry, the local people were grateful and took good care of most of the mandalas. When Zhao Xuedi arrives, it will be repaired a little."

"That's not what I'm asking." Luo Xixian folded his fingers and popped out a prohibition spell, closing his voice: "I'm asking if there are any ulterior secrets about setting up mandalas in various parts of Huaxu Kingdom? Did you and your father foresee anything? gone?"

Xin Shunying's expression was dignified, Master Zhanhou needed to be extremely cautious when talking about the future, because once some things were said, it would make the situation evolve into a more unpredictable situation, so that it was impossible to calculate. the point.

Therefore, some brilliant Zhanhou teachers in the Tianxia Dynasty were almost speechless in their old age, or they said some ambiguous formulas.Because they understand that some things are said in vain, and they might bring disaster on themselves.

Xin Shunying herself had a personal experience. At the beginning, she was self-righteous and thought that Luo Xixian's position could be consolidated, but in the end she pushed Zhao Mi far away.How could he know that this move did not allow Zhao Mi to face the wind and rain alone, but instead made him a success.

As for the consequences, Luo Xixian and Xin Shunying's couple will completely sever their old relationship with Zhao Mi, and lose a powerful ally in the court.

Although Da Sima succeeded in taking the post of Jianjiaguan, Zhao Mi did contribute in it, but it was more like the last help before the severance of diplomatic relations.But compared to Zhao Mi who is now opening the altar to patrol the territory and leveling the heroes, it is not commendable.

"What Zhao Mi is doing now is not just opening altars and patrolling the territory." Xin Shunying said: "He is also responsible for compiling laws and regulations, and submitting letters to the king to set up subjects to select scholars. In the name of a national teacher, there is the reality of a national teacher."

"Nonsense." Luo Xixian sneered twice: "Liang Guoshi's cultivation is far from being comparable to that of Zhao Mi."

"What if we counted the merits of the rituals and rituals?" Xin Shunying asked back: "The rebellion of the Bo star is so powerful that there is no doubt. Moreover, compared with Liang Guoshi's domineering, Zhao Shu planned the laws and regulations for the country, so naturally he can be regarded as the king of the country. The name of the teacher.

Not to mention the establishment of the system of selecting scholars by subjects, and Zhao Mi himself is the first person in the Huaxu Kingdom to study rituals. In the future, there will be countless people studying under him, which may far exceed any museum today! "

"Do you think this is really possible?" Luo Xixian asked.

Xin Shunying explained: "It is not Zhao Xuedi who has benefited the most from the selection of scholars. As long as the regulations are clearly stipulated, even without Zhao Xuedi, this matter can still be carried out, and many people from poor families with excellent character and learning can also be awarded. A chance to advance.

I even think that setting up subjects and selecting scholars does not even have to be limited to techniques and rituals, legal documents, current policy theories, account books, etc., can all set up scientific examination schools.What's more, there are also methods to test the martial arts bow horse.

I think you can take this opportunity to write a letter, Zhao Xuedi is obsessed with scientific rituals, and may not be able to cover everything.And you stated to His Majesty that the selection of scholars should open up categories and recruit talents for the imperial court, so as to avoid the regret of losing pearls in the sea. "

Luo Xixian became interested when he heard the words, but immediately said: "Master Liang cannot tolerate this matter."

Xin Shunying shook his head: "Anyone in the Chongxuan Hall can be an arrogant, arrogant fool and lunatic, except Liang Guoshi. Once the system of selecting scholars by subjects is implemented, the Chongxuan Hall will also benefit greatly, and it will also benefit from the heritage of inheritance. Profound, from the very beginning, it is not comparable to the children of poor families. I even suspect..."

"Doubt what?"

Xin Shunying suddenly thought of a possibility, but immediately felt a little uneasy in her heart. After much deliberation, she chose to tell her husband clearly: "I just think it seems a bit of a coincidence that Liang Guoshi is retreating at this time, as if it was a special trip to give way to Zhao Xuedi with great fanfare." Chance."

"Nonsense!" Luo Xixian waved his hand: "Zhao Mi followed Liang Guoshi to set up the altar and deal with the rebellious party's sword, and almost died. Moreover, Zhao Mi was born in Huaiying Hall, Liang Guoshi couldn't trust him. Besides... Liang Guoshi caused the flood back then Destroy the army of the Xiong Kingdom, and kill Zhao Mi's father who was acting as a bait, and the two of them will be sworn to death!"

Xin Shunying also felt that her idea was a bit absurd. When she was in Xingluo County, she saw that it was Zhao Mi who had plotted secretly to let Xian take Hengbi out of Liang Shuo's control and become a city god. Will be in collusion with Liang Guoshi.

"As for the real intention of opening the altar and patrolling the border..." Xin Shunying pondered for a long time: "If you ask me, it's a lie that Zhao Xuedi has no selfish intentions. As the successor of the Tianxia Dynasty's ceremonial officer, he values ​​his own dignity more than anyone else. Inheriting the foundation. Perhaps he hopes to revive the Zanliguan lineage in Huaxu Kingdom."

"It's also the inheritance of the Tianxia Dynasty, do you think this can be done?" Luo Xixian asked.

Xin Shunying sighed lightly: "Master Zhanhou is different from the officials who praise the ceremony. Even in the Tianxia Dynasty, the number of teachers who occupied the waiting was very rare, while the number of officials who praised the ceremony was at most ten thousand."

"Thousands of people?!" Luo Xixian suddenly sat up straight.

"Of course, the tens of thousands of ceremonial officials are not all of Zhao Xuedi's level of cultivation." Xin Shunying said: "Many ceremonial officials are only proficient in one or two Buddhist rituals, and they will be used for life based on this. Most of them just worship in local shrines. So, they are scattered all over the Kunlun Continent, and they have no great achievements, and there are also many people who are just pretending to be numbers."

Luo Xixian nodded slightly, and Xin Shunying continued: "But in my opinion, even if Zhao Xuedi can really revive the praise officer, it will definitely not be what it used to be. The Huaxu Kingdom has only the eastern part of Kunlun Continent. Yu Sifang, there is no way to display it.

Unless Junior Zhao changed the foundation of the jurisprudence of the tribute officer, but if he changed even the foundation, would he still be the tribute officer?What's more, the praise officials of the Tianxia Dynasty pay attention to establishing a heart for the world, and establishing a life for the people, but now His Majesty..."

Luo Xixian asked: "Do you think His Majesty's virtue is not enough?"

Xin Shunying smiled: "I don't really care, I'm afraid Junior Zhao might not be able to accept it."

"He is in a high position now, if he can't accept it, why bother to take the post?" Luo Xixian waved his hand: "You don't know enough about Zhao Mi, his arrogance is all pretended, but if there are tangible benefits, he will reveal his true nature. Similarly, if If there is a risk of killing himself, he will not hesitate to give in and compromise. Now Zhao Mi is nothing more than his cultivation and power, and there are not many people who can threaten him, so he is so rampant."

Xin Shunying didn't agree with this, but she felt that it was precisely the weakness in the past that suppressed Zhao Mi's noble nature and forced him to be humble and weak.Only when talking about what he is good at, such as art and rituals, and talking about it without any distractions, can we see Zhao Mi's true colors.

Today's Zhao Mi is closer to the praise officer of the Tianxia Dynasty, and he no longer tolerates treacherous evil spirits.When a scum like Wang Zhongding meets Zhao Mi, he is doomed to die.

His father once said to Xin Shunying that the current ruler of the country does not fully trust Zhao Mi, allowing him to open altars to patrol the territory and compile ceremonies is more out of the need to check and balance the Chongxuan Hall.

Based on Xin Shunying's understanding of Zhao Mi, it is impossible for her junior to be ignorant of these situations. In the future, no matter whether Liang Guoshi ascends or falls, the ruler of the country does not need to deliberately check and balance, but may not be able to accommodate Zhao Mi.But he still faced the difficulties. Could it be that he has put life and death aside?
