East Shidao, Stone Arch Bridge Hall. Zhang Yu is sitting cross-legged on an open stone platform. Next to him is an incense burner that emits light green smoke. Above him is a hollow and transparent stone wall, with beams of light shining down from there.
, like stars scattered on the ground.
In front of him is a gap with a wide view, and he can directly see the amazing cliffs and waterfalls outside. The sky here is soft and bright, and the surrounding vegetation is dim in spring. There are birds flying across from time to time, and some are like magical craftsmanship, without losing the naturalness.
interest.
And below the arch bridge, there is an abyss, where the mist is rising, drifting backwards with the breeze, and the vines clinging to the stone arch bridge are also swaying, giving a feeling of crossing the void.
He reached out to pick up a cup of tea on the low table next to him, gently brushed away the ice mist on it, and took a sip. A wisp of sweet and clear spirituality rose up to the sky, and then fell down to soak into the whole body, making his spirit feel refreshed.
.
He has been here for several days and no one has come to ask. However, he is used to Yuan Xia's way of greeting you and will not talk to you right away, so he is waiting patiently.
However, while sitting and watching today, he suddenly felt something in his heart, expecting that someone would be arriving later.
After he finished drinking three glasses of wine, Yan Yuming came to the stage and saluted, "Teacher, Master Cai Xingcai is here."
Zhang Yudao: "Invite him here."
After a while, Cai Xing walked in slowly. He first greeted Zhang Yu, and after greeting him, he said with a smile: "Zhang Zhengshi, how about staying here for a few days?"
Zhang Yudao: "But it's much more comfortable than in Fu Qing's world."
Cai Xing said with a smile: "That's natural. Fu Qing's world is rigid and ancient. He only knows how to follow ancient rituals and doesn't know how to adapt. How can he compare with Dong Shi's world?"
He pointed around with his hand and said meaningfully: "There are also Taoists outside who use pure Qi, which is not as good as Fu Qingshi Tao. Zhang Zhengshi must have felt it too, right?"
What he was referring to at this moment was the pure Qi that can infect the body and mind. However, he did not mean to say this with any ill intentions. Zhang Yu and the others were just external bodies, and they did not care about the infection of these Qi. This should just be a simple show off.
.
From this point of view, some Yuanxia monks seem to be accustomed to being aloof and do not seem to think that Tianxia can create better things with their own strength.
However, leaving aside the shortcomings of Qingqi, this place can indeed be said to be a blessed place for cultivators. Especially since most of the upper-class cultivators of the Yuan Xia never need to go out to fight, it is nothing.
Zhang Yudao: "But I would like to thank you for choosing this place for us."
Cai Xing said with a smile: "As long as Ambassador Zhang is satisfied, I have asked you to greet everyone well, and I don't dare to neglect you." He took out a letter from his sleeve and said, "This book is sent to me by my Majesty.
If you come, please ask Zhang Zheng to take a look."
Zhang Yu took it and took a look. The content in the book was about Zhengqing and Jiao Yao. The two people did not encounter any obstacles along the way, especially Jiao Yao, who had entered the Beiwei world yesterday.
It's in the area, and Taoist Zhengqing seems to have no problem along the way.
He raised his head and said: "Cai Shang is really thoughtful, please ask fellow Taoist to thank you on my behalf."
Cai Xing smiled and said, "I'll bring it to you."
Zhang Yu raised his sleeves to invite you and said, "Master Cai, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea?"
Cai Xingwan declined and said, "No, Shangzhen needs to go back as soon as possible. I'll take my leave first." After bowing, he left.
Zhang Yu didn't try to persuade him to stay, so he ordered Yan Yu to send him off in the Ming Dynasty. He picked up a book and started reading.
More than ten days later, Cai Lifa came to the door. However, he did not want to talk about business at first, but he was very interested in playing a game of chess with him. Obviously, in his eyes, nothing could be better than having fun with him.
The most important thing is to make yourself happy first.
The two played a game of chess every day for three consecutive games, but every time until the chess pieces collapsed, they could not tell the winner.
After the third chess game ended, Cai Li said dissatisfiedly: 'Zhang Shangzhen, are you giving in to me?'
Zhang Yu replied: "That's not the case. Cai Shangzhen's Taoist skills are very good, and Cai Shangzhen's control is not bad. It is not easy to win, and if I can win, I will never hold back."
This is actually not a lie. But he did not say it clearly, because he included Yuan Xia's protection of Cai Li into the chess game, so he was not only fighting against Cai Li himself, but also the help given by Yuan Xia behind him.
, so there is always some room left.
Cai Li's Daofa was more than a step weaker than him. He couldn't feel it specifically, but he could feel that Zhang Yu really tried his best, and he just needed a reasonable reason and was too lazy to think about it in depth. Since Zhang Yu said so, he just believed it.
.
After playing three games of chess, he was satisfied. He waved his sleeves and swept away the embers of the chess pieces. Then he said: "Zhang Shangzhen must have seen it on the road when he came back. Many of us in Yuan Xia are thinking of starting a war with Tian Xia.
, people who don’t want to leave any room, but this kind of approach is not good for anyone, and we are the ones who are willing to accept Tianxia. If Zhang Shangzhen and all Tianxia comrades are willing to come over, we will definitely treat him well.
, treat you all as one of our own.”
Zhang Yudao: "I can also see Cai Shangzhen's attitude, but several of my colleagues and I still have some concerns about your recruitment."
Cai Li said: "Then if Zhang Shangzhen has any concerns, just tell them and I will solve them for you."
Zhang Yudao: "Then I will speak frankly. According to what I heard, after the Yuan Xia destroyed the world, the cultivators who were recruited in advance or remained were used to suppress the calamity power with pills or rituals to avoid calamity. But even if it is
The ritual is nothing more than a long-lasting pill to avoid calamity. You can remove it at any time, so how can this make people feel at ease?"
He paused for a moment and waved his hand slightly, "Don't talk about picking up the final Dao. That is too far away. We don't think about it for now. It is just a way to make an oath and believe it. The Supreme Being also knows that this is difficult to do.
Everyone can rest assured.”
The premise of the oath is to restrain the individual, but there must be strong strength behind it. Even if you can manage to dispel the oath, I still have the means to pursue you after you break the oath.
But if even the world is destroyed, what if Yuan Xia breaks the oath? There is no way to restrain Yuan Xia.
Cai Lidao: "So you are worried about this matter. Well, this is indeed a problem."
What if other worlds worry about this? These people have no choice at all, and he will not explain it. But when it comes to Tianxia, it is different. It involves the last world in Yuanxia that needs to be destroyed.
, the last error to be eliminated is always something special.
He thought for a while and said: "Actually, we in Yuanxia have ways to solve this problem." He looked at Zhang Yu, "In our Yuanxia, the rituals are also different. The rituals Zhang Shangzhen saw before
, those are the most inferior ones. With just one talisman, the ritual can be removed. This is also a necessary means to control some unscrupulous people.
But the superior ritual is different, it can completely eliminate the power of calamity, so Zhang Shang really doesn’t have to worry about this. If you are willing to surrender and guide me, Yuan Xia, I can personally preside over the ritual for you."
Zhang Yudao: "How to completely eliminate the calamity force?"
Cai Li smiled and said: "In fact, it is easy. The power of the calamity is to disinfect people from outside the world, so you only need to use rituals to transform people from outside the world into people of my Yuan Xia. That will be fine."
Zhang Yu's eyes moved slightly and he said: "I became your person. Although I don't know the specific evolution method of your side, it should be to eliminate variables and errors. But isn't doing so just adding variables?"
Cai Lidao: "
I have always only followed the outline, not the details, so the world will be overturned, and ordinary people can tolerate it.
But there is a heavy price to pay for doing this, so there can't be many of these people, there are only a few at most, and they need to be recognized by all the Taoists in the world, but some are always worth doing, such as Zhang Zhengzhi, we are already familiar with it.
, if you are willing to come closer, I will definitely support you,
Zhang Yu nodded, and he inadvertently asked about a secret matter. I am afraid that only people like Cai Li could ask about it. However, he did not completely believe it.
At his level, he can already see some of the ways in the transformation of errors and omissions. When the transformation begins, everyone or everything except Yuan Xia should be errors and omissions, and they are all targets to be eradicated.
Those who are accepted are only allowed to stay because they are useful now and can be used to attack more other worlds. But in fact, the pills and rituals only delay the onset of the calamity. Sooner or later, they will be
Eliminate clean ones.
He suspected that this so-called upper multiplication instrument was just more deceptive than the lower multiplication instrument, because Yuan Xia would definitely not allow any more variables in matters such as the final approach.
Cai Li probably wouldn't go into more detail about this, so he didn't continue to ask, but turned to another matter. He said: "Then I have one more question, I dare to ask Cai Shangzhen, after using this kind of ritual,
Can I still climb to the upper realm?"
Cai Li's eyes flickered and said: "Of course that's possible. Once the rituals are completed, you are a fellow Taoist. How can you prevent a fellow Taoist from achieving the upper realm?"
Zhang Yu saw his response and understood clearly in his heart. It seemed that Yuan Xia was not willing to see cultivators from other worlds going to the upper realm. In fact, if it was as he judged, then the ritual would be planted in the
At that moment, it was no longer possible.
He added: "I just don't know, is there anyone here who really uses this method to avoid disasters?"
Cai Li looked at him and said with a smile: "It seems that Zhang Shangzhen still has concerns, but Cai can understand it, so be it. Please wait a few more days for Zhang Shangzhen. I can ask Zhang Shangzhen to meet the last person later."
Once Zhang Shangzhen meets this person, he will no longer have any worries."
Zhang Yudao: "Then I will wait." He looked over and said, "And if we use the ritual and become people of the Yuan Xia, we will surely be able to share the final path with everyone in the Yuan Xia. Cai Shangzhen, what do you think?
