Taishang Immortal Brigade

Chapter 16

Lu Shangshu is resting in his study with his eyes closed. He has been exhausted from worrying and fearing for the past few days. Prime Minister Su and Taishi Nie are fighting with each other in the current imperial court. Soon there will be the tragic case of General Jin being ransacked and exterminated. As the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, he is one of the big bosses of the six departments. Naturally, the two parties are trying their best to win over him.

Lu Shangshu was born as a scholar. He prides himself on his strength of character and refuses to be attached to the powerful. He is not capable but ambitious. If he can see the direction of the wind and cast it on any side, he can be reused. However, he wants to establish his own family and compete for power with the two big bosses. , is really wishful thinking.

Taishi Nie saw through Lu Shangshu's cruelty and inwardness, and sent Nie Wuhuan to frighten Lu Shangshu out of his wits. Originally, Lu Shangshu was about to surrender to Taishi Nie, but he heard that Xia He showed up on Baima Street. With the innate strength of a master, he thought that inviting Xia He back would block Nie Wuhuan and increase his bargaining chips with Grand Master Nie.

Originally, if Lu Shangshu had a bit of guts, Xia He could still help him fight for it if he fought Grand Master Nie to the end. Unfortunately, this old man is an embroidered pillow. After Xia He killed Nie Wuhuan, Lu Shangshu was afraid, thinking that he would completely offend him. Grand Master Nie even complained that Xia He was too heavy handed and did nothing, and forbade the people in the mansion to contact Xia He.Later, after Xia He rejected Nie Tianzong's intention to solicit him, he had formed an insoluble hatred with Grand Master Nie, and Lu Shangshu didn't dare to keep Xia He anymore.

Lu Shangshu, a member of the government and the opposition, only recognizes one kind of power in his eyes, that is, official authority and power. In his opinion, Grand Master Nie is a hundred times stronger than Xia He, so faced with the dilemma of offending Xia He or Grand Master Nie, Lu Shang Shu made what he thought was a wise choice.

So Xia He heard that Lu Shangshu and the housekeeper Lao Qiu discussed and secretly voted for Grand Master Nie, and planned to ambush Xia He, and presented Xia He as a certificate of honor to Grand Master Nie.

Lu Shangshu thought his strategy was wonderful. First, he used Xia He, a brave and foolish man, to get rid of Nie Wuhuan who harassed his mansion many times, and transferred the hatred of Grand Master Nie to Xia He. , I and Grand Master Nie can meet each other with a smile, and the matter of taking refuge in Grand Master Nie will not be a problem, which is really wonderful.

However, Lu Shangshu, who claims to be the star of Wenqu, did not expect that the most important part of his strategy has a big problem, that is, if Xiahe is not eliminated by Grand Master Nie, and Grand Master Nie's hatred cannot be vented, he Lu Shang Shu was out of luck.

When Lu Shangshu was full of ambition, how could he think of such small things? Yesterday his housekeeper Lao Qiu just reported that Grand Master Nie agreed to his request to trick Xia He out of the city. Grand Master Nie sent his masters to go to Xiahe As soon as Xia He died, Grand Master Nie accepted his service, which is really wonderful.

No matter how powerful Xia He was, he would never have imagined that Lu Shangshu's elegant appearance hides such a despicable and greedy mind. If he could hear what Lu Shangshu was thinking at this time, he would be extremely contemptuous, and it would be bad to scold officials. thing.

At this moment, the housekeeper Lao Qiu staggered into the study, and said with a panicked expression, "Master is not well, the matter has been exposed, Xia He came to kill him, saying that he wanted to ask the master for an explanation."

Lu Shangshu was shocked, stood up from the seat, bent over and shouted loudly, "You slave, broke into the study like this, are there any rules, what nonsense, who called in? You stand for me Come on, speak clearly."

The housekeeper, Lao Qiu, was pale, clutching his left shoulder, blood seeping from his fingers, obviously seriously injured, and said, "Xiahe just came back from outside the mansion, and he seemed to have heard some rumors that we and Grand Master Nie conspired to kill He, without waiting for the old slave to say anything, hit me head-on, cut the old slave's left shoulder, and threatened that the master wanted to harm him, and he would not stay in Lu's house. If we want to harm him, he will wait on Xiwang Mountain in the suburbs."

Lu Shangshu was startled and frightened. He was there when Xia He cut Nie Wuhuan in half. It could be seen that although Master Xia He was usually polite, he had a murderous nature. Now that he knew that he wanted to kill him, he just Afraid that he would come to settle accounts with himself, he walked back and forth in the study with square steps, muttering, "It's worth it, it's worth it." Then he asked Lao Qiu, "Old Qiu, what do you think? Tell me, how are the people at Grand Master Nie's preparations going?"

Lao Qiu said with a troubled expression, "Master, there are not enough masters in Grand Master Nie's residence, and they need to be called from other places. They said it would take three days before they can do it. The time agreed with us is three days later. I'm afraid I'm not ready at this time." good."

Lu Shangshu said fiercely, "Leave him alone, this madman surnamed Xia is already insane, if he doesn't solve it as soon as possible, he may come to kill the old man, you run again and tell Taishi Nie , Xiahe ran away, tell them to catch up as soon as possible."

Lao Qiu said in embarrassment, "Master, I'm afraid it won't work. Grand Master Nie has always been the only one who respects himself and doesn't listen to anyone. It's really inappropriate to talk about his transfer of subordinates before we have taken refuge in him. If you offend Grand Master Nie, then..."

Lu Shangshu said angrily, "Then you should beg him in a low voice and say that Xiahe is coming to kill me. Our plan has failed. If we don't get rid of Xiahe now, we won't have a chance in the future." Wan Wan kicked Lao Qiu hard.

Lao Qiu crawled and ran out of the study room. Lu Shangshu, who stayed in the study room, was trembling with fear. He sat on the armchair for a long time and couldn't calm down. Looking at the desk in front of him, he sighed and said mockingly, "I'm Why bother."

Seeing Lao Qiu rushing out of the Lu Mansion, Xia He stood at the corner with a calm expression on his face. His move was to disrupt the other party's deployment, and now that he had achieved his goal, Grand Master Nie would definitely not be able to mobilize him in a hurry. How many people are there, and I can buy more time to arrange the lightning strikes.

Xia He has already gone to the blacksmith's shop to retrieve the custom-made iron pillars. There are a total of 56 iron pillars weighing a thousand catties. , The master of the blacksmith shop was still thinking about helping Xia He transport it to his house. He was stunned when he saw Xia He tied up 56 iron pillars with a bowl-thick mouth, carried them on his shoulders, and walked away briskly.

Xia He took the iron pillars, and under the surprised eyes of passers-by, he walked out of the city and went up to Xiwang Mountain. When the incense sticks, I climbed to the top of the mountain.

Putting down the iron pillar, Xia He began to carve talismans for the iron pillar. Xia He was born as a scholar, and he has practiced writing in various fonts. He even studied oracle bone inscriptions for a period of time. Although he has never touched talismans, he did a few experiments and became familiar with the strokes The movement of the iron pillar is much easier. There is another advantage to carving talismans on the iron pillar, that is, even if you make a mistake, as long as you wipe it with your hand, the iron pillar will become smooth as new, and you can continue to write talismans.

So busy until the afternoon, Xia He finally engraved the lightning talisman on all 56 iron pillars, and then arranged the 56 iron pillars according to the formation diagram of the thunder formation, brushed the golden light from the ground, and the iron pillars went down to the ground. Suddenly, it sank into the ground, and then covered it with soil, and there was no trace on the ground anymore.

After everything was ready, he was waiting for the enemy to come to his door. Xia He chose a slightly flat stone to sit down, sighed, thinking that since he got the mysterious conch shell and set foot on a cultivator, he had never had a moment of leisure. Sigh, could it be that the road of cultivating immortals is a non-stop toil.

At present, Xia He is majoring in the magic of the Five Elements Dao in the Taishang Mie Dao Jing. The five elements are divided into gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. These five elements represent five different energies and movements. An expression of strength.

The golden light of the dungeon represents the power of gold in the five elements. In Xiahe's hands, it can exert sharp and strong power, and has a strong attraction and repulsion to objects with gold energy. If Xiahe and the golden light of the dundi are combined If it is used, it can display an extremely fast escape method, so it is called the golden light of escape.

The Ancient Light of the Seven Treasures represents the power of the soil of the Five Elements. Anything touched by it immediately becomes as heavy as a thousand weights. The seven treasures are all born in the earth, and the light of the treasures shines in the world, so the earth-type divine light is called the ancient light of the seven treasures.

As the enemies in front of him become stronger and stronger, Xia He is also gradually digging out the mysteries of these two divine lights. Now he is pondering the five elements of thunder. The law and the thunder method of the five elements.In the past, Xia He's strength was not enough to practice the powerful thunder method, but now he has cultivated the divine light of the two elements of metal and earth, and the two powers of the five elements have first seen the mystery, so he can practice the thunder method that is born of the earth and metal.

However, if you practice thunder, you can't build a car behind closed doors at home. Ordinary people think that thunder is sent from heaven to punish the wicked, and they are afraid from the bottom of their hearts. During thunderstorms, they close their doors and dare not go out. Xiahe is no exception. I haven't seen the thunder clearly before, and I don't know the real mystery of the thunder, so I can get the thunder method through this kind of cultivation.

Xiahe has two meanings for the thunder formation that fell on Xiwang Mountain this time. Firstly, Taishi Nie’s subordinates are all corpse refiners and half-corpsemen with heavy yin energy. Receive and guide the thunder from the nine heavens, learn from the mysteries of the thunder, and combine with the five elements that I have practiced, to practice the thunder law of the mutual generation of earth and metal.

The thunder method in the world of cultivating immortals has always been a powerful spell. There has always been a saying that the nine heavenly thunders and the Yi group demons are the supreme law of the righteous way. It is specially used to restrain evil spirits and heretics. , It is rare to be able to cultivate into the thunder method. Most monks use the thunder method to fight against the enemy, relying on either the magic weapon or the formation talisman.

Like today, if Xiahe wants to restrain the corpse refining in the opponent's camp, he has to rely on the power of Luoleizhen and Xiwangshan. If one day he can practice the five-life, five-gram, and ten-absolute thunder in the Five Elements Dao, he will be able to summon thunder at will , can rival Tianwei.
