Chapter 396 Three Eagles with One Arrow

In April, the peach blossoms of the mountain temple begin to bloom.

The calendar of the New World is actually the same as the lunar calendar of the Tang Dynasty.

In early April, the peach blossoms in Weiyang Palace were in bloom.

"My beloved concubine, how long have you been back in the palace?" The empress looked at Peach Blossom and suddenly asked.

"More than a month." Concubine Pei replied.

"How much of the information on Beiju Luzhou sent by the Investigation Department has been remembered by my concubine?" the empress asked again.

"Most of them remember that there is a temple in Beiju Luzhou, three major kingdoms, and many tribes."

"The temple is also called the Temple of Gods, and [-]% of the people in Beiju Luzhou are temple believers."

"There are two theories about the temple. One is that the eight major sects of Beiju Luzhou formed an alliance, and the prototype of the temple came into being; the other is that the temple came out of nowhere, destroyed the eight major sects, and unified the entire Beiju Luzhou. Belief."

"The three kingdoms are Han, Zhou, and Hundred Saints."

"The Han Kingdom is also called the Han Dynasty. It is mainly the gathering place of human races."

"The Zhou Kingdom, also known as the Great Zhou Dynasty, advocates religion without discrimination, equality of all living beings, and mixing of humans and monsters in marriage."

"The Hundred Saints Kingdom has gathered monsters who consider themselves saints. Back then, the Hundred Demon Kings promoted a demon emperor to the throne and established the country."

"What's interesting is that these three major countries all believe in the divine right of kings."

"Every new generation of kings who succeed to the throne needs to be crowned in the temple."

Mr. Pei talked endlessly and said one thing after another.

In the past month or so, he has really worked hard to obtain various information about Beiju Luzhou.

"very good."

The Empress was quite satisfied with Concubine Pei's performance and suddenly changed the subject: "You once used just a few days to help people upgrade their spiritual roots. Now more than a month has passed. Why can't my spiritual roots be upgraded to a star?"

Concubine Pei's desire to survive was full: "Your Majesty, the situation is like this. It is easier for low-level spiritual roots to be promoted. The higher-level spiritual roots are, the more difficult it is to ascend to a star. Your Majesty is already a seven-star spiritual root that has not been seen in thousands of years. Even if you are not promoted , and it’s enough to top China.”

The empress turned and looked directly at Pei Yin: "Is it because it is difficult to advance to high-level spiritual roots, or because you have no intention?"

Concubine Pei said weakly: "I am very frightened. What exactly does your Majesty mean by intention?"

If the empress has any pointers, "I heard from Yu'er that you are in love with those women in the human world and are particularly hard-working. When you come to me, you will inevitably be a bit indifferent to your work and just perfunctory."

"Misunderstanding, Your Majesty, this is purely a misunderstanding!" Concubine Pei said with a look of injustice: "In front of the magical power of clear water, all living beings are equal. Your Majesty should be able to feel how hard I work."

"Then tell me, why can't my spiritual roots rise to the stars?" The empress returned to the old topic.

"With all due respect, Your Majesty has a knot in his mind and it is difficult to break through the barrier. Once the curse is lifted, Your Majesty will soar into the sky. Not to mention being promoted to an eight-star spiritual root, it is also a nine-star spiritual root." Pei Yin didn't even bother to brag. draft.

"Okay, I will wait for you to lift the curse." The empress made a decision: "We will set off tomorrow and I will personally take you to the border. When you arrive at Beiju Luzhou, everything will have to be relied on by my beloved concubine. No one can help you."

Pei Yin was shocked when he heard this: "Your Majesty always has a well-planned plan. Don't you have any plans for me to execute?"

The empress said: "There was originally a very careful plan, but I rejected it a few days ago. Some things depend on fate. The more scheming you are, the more jealous you will be, which often backfires."

"Furthermore, my beloved concubine has her own way of doing things. The plan I arranged will inevitably limit your performance."

"My beloved, you are a very lucky person. It's better to let you do whatever you want. You can do whatever you want."

Such a high degree of freedom put a lot of pressure on Concubine Pei: "Your Majesty, I heard that there are countless kinds of heavenly secrets contained in the Heavenly Way Monument, and each monk comprehends different things. What skills do I need to comprehend before I can do it?" Lift the curse?"

A glimmer of hope flashed in the empress's eyes, and she replied with three words: "Thirteen guns."

"Is that a set of marksmanship?" Pei Yin was stunned when he heard this.

"That's right." The empress' reaction was a bit strange.Pei Yin was completely fooled: "Your Majesty, you know that I am a swordsman. Is it inappropriate for me to learn the art of marksmanship?"

The empress did not accept the rebuttal: "There is nothing inappropriate. The paths lead to the same destination. My beloved concubine has understood the origin of swordsmanship, and she can achieve great results by studying the art of marksmanship."

"When you get close to the Heavenly Dao Monument, you may be able to comprehend various heavenly secrets. Remember, I only want you to learn the "Thirteen Spears"."

"If you can learn other things besides the Thirteen Spears, that's your own destiny."

Pei Yin was silent. He understood more and more about the empress' depth. There was no room for negotiation on learning "Thirteen Guns".

"My beloved, please rest early and set off early tomorrow morning."

After the empress finished speaking, she left without giving Pei Yin any room to maneuver.

Pei Yin came back to his senses and asked in his heart: "Shuang'er, what exactly are the thirteen guns?"

Baili Shuangshuang replied: "Unheard of."

Pei Yin felt bad: "If you don't even know something, why does the empress think that I can learn the thirteen guns?"

Baili Shuangshuang said: "Hong Ling has collected information for 500 years in order to lift the curse, so she must have been prepared. The so-called "Thirteen Guns" may not be able to directly lift the curse, but it is certain that it is the key to helping her lift the curse. .”

Pei Yin still has questions: "You said before that everyone understands different things from the Tiandao Monument. Even if a swordsman like me resonates with the Tiandao Monument, it would be good if he can understand a little bit of swordsmanship. The Empress seems to be eating It’s certain that I can understand the Thirteen Spears, why is this?”

Baili Shuangshuang said: "This matter is really puzzling. I couldn't figure it out for a while."

Pei Yin had a headache and simply changed his mind: "Let's talk about something else. The information from the Investigation Department should be quite reliable. Now the Northern Black Iron is in the hands of the Han royal family. This kind of royal treasure is stored in the treasury and cannot be guaranteed. Guarded by a seventh-level expert, how can I get the Northern Black Iron?"

Shuang'er regained her grace as a female military advisor: "This matter is not difficult. The northeastern border of Han State is adjacent to the Hundred Saints Kingdom, and the two countries have been at war all the year round. Han State is the only country in Beiju Luzhou that has issues with the demon clan. As long as you are a human race, go to the Great Wall of the North to slay demons and accumulate merit, the Han court will have its own rewards."

"Brother A Niu, you happen to be good at demon-slaying practice. You can kill two birds with one stone while killing demons and accumulating merit at the same time."

"Brother A Niu is a sword cultivator. When he has accumulated enough merits, he proposes to temper his natal flying sword with arctic black iron. The Han Dynasty court should give him honor."

"If everything goes well, maybe we can find out the whereabouts of the Nine-Life Demon King. It can be said that we kill three birds with one stone."

Pei Yin's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea!"

Soon he returned to reality: "However, the first Tiandao Monument is in the territory of the Zhou Dynasty. With the style of the empress, she will definitely send me to the Zhou Kingdom first. When the time comes, I want to go from the Zhou Kingdom to the Han Kingdom, but I'm afraid it won't be possible. General trouble."

"It's not troublesome, it's actually a good thing." The female military advisor was sure of victory.

"How do you say that?" Pei Yin asked curiously.

"Although both the human race and the demon race can go to the Great Zhou Dynasty to understand the first heavenly stele. Since ancient times, there is only one person in ten thousand who can understand the heavenly secrets from the inscriptions."

"On the other hand, once you understand the Heavenly Dao Monument, you will be able to build it and will be highly valued by the gods."

"The pantheon of gods will give such a talent a letter of recommendation. With this token, you can enjoy high-ranking officials and generous salaries in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you can also work for the Great Han Dynasty."

"Is there such an operation?" Pei Yin was stunned for a moment after hearing this: "But I am not a native of Beiju Luzhou, or even an aboriginal of this world. Are the gods really willing to recommend me?"

"This is the brilliance of the temples. They attach great importance to talents and have a far-reaching reputation, which has caused monks from all over the world to flee. There were people who were hunted by their enemies in Xiniuhezhou and Nanzhanbuzhou and fled to Beijuluzhou to gain enlightenment. The Tiandao Monument was recommended by the temple and left a lot of good stories."

Baili Shuangshuang said: "In addition, in the past, there were monks who ascended from the human world and were recommended by the temple. There are also devout people who joined the temples and became high-profile priests."

"I feel relieved to hear you say that." Pei Yin let out a long sigh of relief.

"Brother A Niu, are you absolutely sure that you can understand the Heavenly Dao Monument?" Baili Shuangshuang asked.

"Shuang'er, have you forgotten that I have a map of the river." Pei Yin smiled sullenly.

Shuang'er immediately drew inferences: "It is said that Hetu can decipher the mysteries of the stars in the sky. Could it be that it can also decipher the Heavenly Dao Monument?"
