King of Jinhua? Queen Mother of the East?
He really had two choices before him.
That "Empress of Yaohua" is really powerful.
But how to choose?
In terms of interests, if either of the two parties is eliminated, one can get thousands of taels of gold from the imperial court, which can be regarded as gathering another material for the golden elixir. However, with his current ability, unless there is a true king in the sky who is willing to lead his troops to annihilate the Eastern King.
Mother, otherwise it would be almost impossible to remove the Queen Mother of the East.
There is the North Leopard Spring where the Leopard King is, but the North Leopard Spring can neither dry nor run away. If others get rid of the Leopard King, they can also go and get the North Leopard Spring. In addition, the North Leopard Spring is not precious, so this is
It doesn't matter.
The Queen Mother of the East has the Earth Spirit Pill.
This is precious.
There is also a way to live forever.
Regardless of whether you can use it, in the future, if any brother slacks off in his practice, does not practice Taoism enough, and does not increase his Taoism practice enough to keep up with his own aging, a few years of life may be the difference between life and death.
It seems that Dongwangmu’s place has greater benefits.
As for whether it is dangerous or not, it is difficult to measure.
The Queen Mother of the East seems to have higher moral standards than the Leopard King. However, the Queen Mother of the East rarely hurts anyone. She has issued an "immortality order" this time to recruit talents and soldiers. If I just want to see her immortality
Whether the method is true or not, and what the principle is, there is no need to fight her to the death. You can just take the "Order of Immortality" and leave.
But the Leopard King has done countless harm to people and is really fierce. If he goes to the northwest and enters the Leopard King's lair, the two sides will definitely have to decide the outcome.
But when it comes to harm——
The Leopard King harms the people of the world, but the Queen Mother of the East harms the imperial court and the rule of Jiutian Zhengshen.
Speaking of which, it's not difficult to choose.
Just thinking of what "Empress Yaohua" said, "The mind divides blessings and misfortunes, and the choice determines safety and danger." Obviously one of the two is more dangerous, and Lin Jue had to be serious.
After thinking about it, he shook his head and put aside his distracting thoughts.
If you can’t think of this sentence even if it exists, why not just pretend it doesn’t exist? People who practice Taoism should be free and easy and do what they want. Why should they be timid and tied up just because of a single sentence?
"Where are Daoist Fellow Wan, Master Pan, Fellow Daoist Tao and Fellow Daoist Lei?" Lin Jue calmed down and asked again, "Where are Master Nantian, Master Yunchan, and the Taoist Priests of Yushan?"
‘Master Nan Tian and Master Yun Chan, as well as the masters of Juxian Mansion who had previously dealt with the Leopard King in the northwest, have already gone to the northwest.’
Fan Tianshi paused:
"Fellow Daoist Wan, Daoist Tao and Gonglei Pan are still staying in the capital to wait for Fellow Daoist Lin to make a decision. They said that if Fellow Daoist Lin goes to the northwest,
They followed to get rid of the Leopard King. If Taoist friend Lin went to the Northeast, they also followed to see what the Queen Mother of the East was like, who could make people live forever. Not only them, there were also some strange people in the capital, and even some bold ones.
, they all said they would follow Master Lin to slay the demon."
"Those people?"
Lin Jue knew these people.
Most of these people are strange people with some magic skills. They can barely be regarded as spiritual magic sects. Because Nan Tianshi and the rumored Fan Tianshi both rely on asking gods to eliminate demons, they can barely be regarded as talisman sects. Therefore, some strange people and strangers are because of this.
Some of them are unwilling to follow Nantian Master because they are timid and afraid of death.
.And when I went to Jinping County to eliminate the demons, they were waiting and watching. When I came back to eliminate the demons, I had already become quite famous among these people. After the battle with Master Dazu at the end of last year, those who were like thunder
With the same surname as everyone else, there should be more and more people who want to gain some fame and fortune with their help.
Don't be afraid that they are doing it for fame and fortune. As long as it is a legitimate means, there is no need to criticize them. As long as they are really doing good for the people, they are worthy of recognition.
So Lin Jue asked again: "Where are the Taoist priests in Yushan?"
"It is said that he took the ancestral magic weapon from the temple and went to the northeast to find the Queen Mother of the East."
"Ancestor's magical weapon"
Lin Jue actually remembered the mirror hanging in his family's Fuqiu Temple's Bishan Hall. It had been passed down for many years. If he wanted to fight Queen Mother Dong, he should borrow it from his senior brother.
"Brother Dao, have you decided where to go?"
"Go northwest!"
"I guess this is the case for all poor people."
"Fellow Taoist Fan, please stay in the capital. If there is any news about any changes, you can also try to inform me." Lin Jue said, specifically telling him, "Fellow Taoist Fan, please calm down. This time, don't be like last time, when you were drunk and got raped."
As soon as the man was agitated, he left the capital and went to find the Demon King."
"I know—"
Fan Tianshi nodded and sighed again, looking a little weak.
Lin Jue bowed to him and walked out.
Back in his courtyard, Luo Gong had already pulled out his tall horse, put a simple luggage bag on the horse, polished the silver gun, put the gun head on, and hung it on the saddle.
"Have you decided where to go?" Luo Monk turned to look at him, with a calm expression and a calm tone, "It's hundreds of miles away from Baolin and Yunmeng County. You go fast, if you have already decided
Okay, Luo will go and ask those strange people to go ahead. You have just come back, you can rest for a while, eat something, and then you can catch up with us."
"Thinking about it now, I want to go find the Leopard King first."
"Um--..."
Luo Monk glanced at him and didn't ask any questions. He just nodded and said, "The Leopard King is in the northwest and the Queen Mother of the East is in the northeast. They have to go to Qinglian County in the north first, and then divide it into the west and the east. Before that,
We are all walking the same road. If you change your mind, you can catch up with us on the road."
"good!"
"Go first!"
After Luo Monk finished speaking, he led the horse out of the door.
It seems that in his heart, there is no care and nothing to fear. Victory or defeat, the worst is just death.
Lin Jue watched him leave.
It is indeed as Luo Gong said that he has been a little tired since early in the morning and has been rushing to the capital. He has not even eaten yet. He really should take a rest first. And with the speed at which they are traveling, not to mention Luo Gong who has just left, he himself
Now, if we go after Dao Zhang Jiang, who has set off at noon, Nan Tianshi and his party can still catch up.
While Lin Jue was meditating, he poured pills from the small bottle and fed them to fellow Taoist Egrets. He also took Fuyao to eat something, and even let him go to Fengshan Mountain outside the city to summon two stone horses.
The sky is getting darker and darker.
The Taoist rode an egret and flew above the clouds.
On the mountain road below, stone horses galloped like the wind.
I wanted to catch up with Luo Gong and his entourage before nightfall, but I never thought that the weather in the capital was fine, but heading north, there were dark clouds that spread for hundreds of miles and it was raining heavily.
Fellow Taoist Egret had difficulty flying on rainy days, and as night was approaching, Lin Jue had to go down first, find a temple in the village, and go in to take shelter from the rain temporarily.
He changed back to his original self and looked around.
It's just a village temple, with a few statues of gods scattered here and there, no one takes care of it, but it's clean and quiet.
There are still signs of a fire in the middle of the temple, and some dry firewood was placed beside the wall.
The fox jumped in with a bag on his back.
I saw it turning sideways, pulling out its legs from the straps of the backpack one by one, then removing the backpack, then shaking its body vigorously, a cloud of water mist spread away, and its body was immediately dry again.
"Lord Luo! In front!"
The fox turned his head and said to Lin Jue.
"I know. They should be taking shelter from the rain." Lin Jue said, "Don't worry, the rain will stop tomorrow. We will catch up with them during the day tomorrow."
"chew"
?9
The fox shook his head, blew on the ground to blow away the dust, and then lay down on the ground.
A night watch light was turned on.
Lin Jue sat cross-legged on the ground, also thinking in his heart.
I have obtained the Great Yin and Yang method, practiced it for a year, and spent half a year on the mountain. I have made great progress in Taoism and magic. However, the Leopard King can still fight evenly under the siege of the Heavenly Fire God General and many strange people and experts. Obviously
It is not a person that can be idle. Especially after its defeat, as long as it returns to its lair, the Heavenly Fire God General will immediately stop pursuing it. This also shows that after so many years of operation, its lair is already a place that makes the God General cautious.
Is this the danger that the "Empress of Yaohua" mentioned?
The rain kept falling outside.
It gets dark early on a rainy day, and in the blink of an eye, there is no light outside. All you can hear is the rumble of horse hooves, which makes the earth tremble, and stops at the door of the village temple.
Lin Jue knew that they were two stone horses.
By now they should be standing at the entrance of the village temple.
I don’t know if it’s a habit they developed before they became enlightened. No matter where they go, these two stone horses like to find a doorway or intersection to stand, and they must stand evenly.
"I just hope I didn't scare the villagers."
"I just hope I didn't scare the villagers!"
Lin Jue whispered, and the fox was bored to learn.
At this moment, I heard a voice from the door:
"Where did the two stone horses come from?"
Lin Jue and Fox both looked over and saw a figure walking out of the ceremonial gate of the village temple, wearing black clothes, looking strangely outside, and at the person and the fox in the temple strangely.
One person and one fox looked at each other.
There must be someone in the village, but neither Lin Jue nor Fox noticed when this person came in. It was as if he had always been there. They immediately knew in their hearts that this person was most likely not a human, but a spirit.
Ghosts and the like.
"I brought it."
Lin Jue answered, looking at him carefully.
I saw that his body was solid, not like a kid, and he didn't have any evil aura. I didn't know what it was.
"Who are you? Where are you from? Where are you going?"
"My surname is Lin Jue. I am a Taoist. I came from the capital and am going to the northwest." Lin Jue replied, "Because it is raining, I came to this temple to take shelter. I don't know if there are other people in this temple."
"Taoist priests from the capital? Heading to the northwest?" The man smiled, "This afternoon there was also a group of Taoist priests who also came from the capital and headed to the northwest. They also took shelter from the rain here for a while. What a coincidence."
"Oh? Are you serious about this?"
"You young Taoist priest! At my age, why would I lie to you for no reason?"
"Have those Taoists ever had conversations with me?"
"There was not much conversation, but from what they said, they seemed to be Taoist priests from Qiyun Mountain. The pile of ashes in front of you is because they were cold in the afternoon.
My clothes got wet and were cooked by the fire. ""
"That's right!" Lin Jue wasn't afraid of him in the first place, but now he didn't feel scared anymore after hearing this, "Where are they now?"
"The rain stopped in the afternoon and they left in a hurry."
"So that's it."
"Do you know each other?"
The man walked over while talking.
Lin Jue extinguished the night watch lamp and lit it again. The light reflected the man's face. He was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and nothing unusual.
"Of course I know you."
On a lonely rainy day, when they met by chance, Lin Jue simply invited him to come and sit with him.
