Chapter 1153: Suzaku Lane, Soft Silk Post
Zhou Tianjing Ling nodded gently: "Of course you are helpless! Maybe this is called retribution! You have done too many bad things, and you lack the necessary respect for the elders, so..."
"So, you guys! Tell me the point! Where is the Heavenly Dao Spiritual Pearl that I asked you to study?"
As soon as the word "Laozi" came out, Zhou Tianjing Ling knew the limit.
He immediately calmed down and said, "There is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"Fuck!" Lin Su yelled, "Good news!"
"The good news is that this Heavenly Path Spirit Pearl does have a restraining effect on the Heavenly Tears Curse. Even if the Heavenly Tears Curse is activated, you will not be punished by the Heaven with the protection of the Heavenly Path Spirit Pearl."
Lin Su nodded: "What's the downside? Don't tell me that this bead has a secret door!"
"Secret door? You wish! Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of a generation of Immortal Emperor to design a secret door for you?" Zhou Tianjing Ling looked down on him and said, "The disadvantage is that this bead has a time limit, the longest is one year! After one year, it loses its protective function. Therefore, I must sigh, sooner or later you will pay for what you have done. Those who enslave others will be enslaved by others. The law of nature will come true, and retribution will not be missed..."
Lin Su glanced at him: "Old man, the last sentence is full of resentment..."
Those who enslave others will always be enslaved by others!
He was deeply dissatisfied with Lin Su's enslavement of him!
I have been filled with anger and have nowhere to vent it. Now I have found a breakthrough. You, Lin Su, have been enslaved by me, and now your life is in the hands of others and you are also enslaved. This is called the cycle of nature.
Zhou Tianjing Ling stiffened his neck and confronted him: "So what if you have grudges? I believe in justice. Every time you beat me, you will be punished..."
Lin Su shook his head gently: "Forget it, I'm in a good mood today, so I won't beat you up."
"I feel good? When a person is about to die, he feels good?"
Lin Su smiled and said, "A person is about to die? You are still too stupid, old man. It is very difficult to communicate with you. Forget it. Who made me have no one to communicate with in this world? People's desire to talk also needs to be vented moderately, otherwise, people will go crazy... Let me tell you, do you only see the limitations of this Heavenly Dao Spirit Pearl? Can't you see that it has another mysterious layer?"
"Mysterious? What's mysterious?" Zhou Tianjing Ling became interested.
"Its greatest mystery is that it can create an illusion!" Lin Su said: "A generation of Immortal Emperors will feel that he can completely control me, so in the following time, he will have unlimited trust in me."
"Is being in control of you just an illusion?" Zhou Tianjing Ling frowned.
Lin Su glanced at him and said, "You always say that you are the spirit of the Eternal Demonic Weapon and that you know everything under the Heavenly Dao. However, you still lack knowledge. Do you really think that the Heavenly Tears Curse is absolutely unsolvable?"
The last sentence is earth-shattering!
Zhou Tianjingling was stunned...
All the topics he envisioned were based on one basic point, that is, the Curse of Sky Tears could not be solved.
This basic point is absolutely true in the whole world. Even a figure like the Immortal Emperor firmly believes that the Heavenly Tears Curse cannot be solved. That's why he took out the Heavenly Dao Spirit Pearl, a spiritual object that can temporarily suppress the Heavenly Tears Curse. If there were other ways to solve it, would he be willing to give up such a precious treasure?
However, Lin Su's words overturned the world's principles.
"How to break the Curse of Heaven's Tears?"
Lin Su smiled faintly: "The Curse of Heaven's Tears is a taboo in the world of Heaven! Then... in the world of no way, what would it be?"
Zhou Tianjingling's beard was shaking desperately: "A world without the Way! How could I forget that there is a world without the Way? The Way of Heaven and the Way of No Way counteract each other. Taboos on one side, holy opportunities on the other. Taboos on this side, holy opportunities on the other side... Such a simple truth, I actually..."
"You didn't expect it, which is not surprising at all. It's just that everyone in the world has a base point for thinking about problems. The standpoint determines the viewpoint, and the height determines the vision. As people under the Heavenly Dao, the higher you are, the more you believe in the iron rules of the Heavenly Dao. How many people can jump out of the Heavenly Dao and look at the Heavenly Dao?"
Zhou Tianjingling suddenly raised his head and said, "Boy, you have to leave quickly! Leave Xiandu immediately and go to Wudao Realm to break the Heavenly Tears Curse from the root first."
"There's no need to be so anxious."
"No hurry? You... the Wudao Qi in your body right now is not enough to fuse with the Heavenly Tears. You must enter the real Wudao world. You can't delay. If you delay, who knows if this thing will be activated? Once it is activated, once the Heavenly Dao Spirit Pearl becomes ineffective, it doesn't matter if you die, I have to die too..."
"I didn't really want to beat you up today, but you really can't be happy without being beaten up, so I'll beat you up first!" Lin Su raised his hand and beat up Zhou Tian Jing Ling, then took the hopeless Zhou Tian Jing Ling in his hand and folded him up for fun, and told him the real reason...
Now is not a good time to leave Xiandu.
Why?
There are a bunch of Wanxiang from Haoyuan Sect outside Xiandu, ready to grind Lin to ashes at any time. How can I leave Xiandu?
Even if I don't care about the Curse of Sky Tears, do you think Sky Tears is the only way to kill people in the world?
If someone attacks me directly and kills me, who can I cry to?
So, I need to wait!
What are you waiting for?
Of course, I am waiting for the Immortal Dynasty army to crush the Hao Yuan Sect, and for all the various forces of the Hao Yuan Sect to turn into ghosts. At that time, I will swagger out of the Immortal Capital...
next day!
The situation changes suddenly!
Xiandu was the first to have a tornado, which turned the earth upside down.
The Immortal Emperor personally issued an edict that Crown Prince Ji Yun was guilty of treason and disobedience to his king and father, and that he should be deposed from his position as Crown Prince and beheaded in the Immortal Capital!
All 371 followers of the prince were killed!
The first-rank imperial concubine, Li, committed a heinous crime and was sentenced to death by slow slicing!
The Haoyuan Sect is an accomplice of the foreign Qinglian Sect, and must be killed without mercy!
Three million troops set out from the southwest!
A million imperial troops from the capital set out for the battle!
All the major immortal sects, attack together!
As soon as the Immortal Emperor issued the decree, the entire Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty was shaken. The army crossed the river, warships flew through the sky, and the wind and clouds of heaven and earth changed dramatically, all today.
In Xiandu, the earth was shaking.
Some court officials were killed, some were exterminated, and the rest lived in fear.
Your Majesty suddenly took action and eliminated the prince with such a decisive attitude. This can be said to be unprecedented in all the dynasties of the immortals. Combined with the rumors about the prince in the early days, almost everyone recognizes that there is only one possibility that can make Your Majesty so angry and so decisive, and that is: the rumors are true!
The Crown Prince is not your Majesty's dragon seed, how can your Majesty tolerate him?
The kind that wouldn't satisfy me even if I chopped it into ten thousand pieces!
And a first-rank imperial concubine, who had an affair with His Majesty, how could His Majesty tolerate this? Of course, she would be cut into pieces!
And the fact that her sect was connected with the notorious Qinglian Sect further confirmed this terrible speculation. The knowledgeable people in the court were all familiar with the history of the Qinglian Sect's rise. They had destroyed the Yanyu Dynasty with this method, making the heir of the Yanyu Dynasty directly their own people and severing the bloodline of the Yanyu Dynasty from the root.
With this understanding, it would be righteous for the Xian Dynasty to wipe out the Hao Yuan Sect.
As people of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty, no matter whether they are high-ranking officials or ordinary people, who would be willing to be uprooted by a foreign land?
Therefore, the soldiers were full of desire to serve their country.
Practicing the immortal sect, full of murderous aura.
Liangshan, their backs were covered in cold sweat. Ever since the crown prince was captured from the East Palace by the commander-in-chief, the top leaders of Liangshan Sect have never stopped sweating, because they are the sect that stands behind the crown prince.
They also worry about being liquidated.
The elders of the sect held an emergency meeting to determine the tone, and wrote to His Majesty overnight, requesting to serve as the vanguard force to pacify the Hao Yuan Sect.
His Majesty nodded, and Liangshan was all excited. They quickly sent almost all the elders to the front line overnight, and were the first to connect with Hao Yuanzong. They fought blood and flesh, and risked their lives...
The other major sects also sent out troops one after another.
The Luotian Sect was particularly active, and was led personally by the sect's grand elder, Luo Tianhui, Ding Yanfei, who brought more than half of the sect's strength.
At this moment, no matter where they stood before, everyone knew the seriousness of the matter.
The Crown Prince and the Second Prince are competing with each other, and all the major sects in the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty are more or less involved with them. If we do not express our stance and submit our loyalty at this time, it will surely catch the eyes of His Majesty and become the cause of the sect's destruction.
I can only work hard to prove my loyalty.
In particular, the three or five sects that had originally followed the prince closest behaved exceptionally actively. For a moment, in the vast world of Jianghu, the members of the Haoyuan Sect had no place to stand.
Prime Minister Guo Hong was standing in the Memorial Hall. He was very old, so old that his age could be measured in centuries.
Although he had seen the ups and downs of the world for hundreds of years, he was still stunned by His Majesty's series of decisive and unparalleled combined punches. He stared blankly at the thick dark clouds in the sky and sighed deeply: "I watched him build a tall building, and I also watched it collapse!"
He was talking about the Hao Yuan Sect.
He personally witnessed the Haoyuan Sect rise from a second-rate sect to a first-rate sect, and then from a first-rate sect to a super sect named by the Immortal Emperor himself.
And today, he also witnessed with his own eyes that this super sect became a rat crossing the street overnight, and was about to be expelled from the sect.
"Prime Minister!" Da Shenling beside him bowed and said, "From all aspects, it seems that Haoyuan Sect does have the shadow of Qinglian Sect. If it is really a spy sect that has infiltrated our dynasty from a foreign sect, then its overthrow will be a way to death!"
"Yes, as the immortal sect of this dynasty, how can we tolerate them wanting to cut off the roots of this dynasty? Although things in this world are ever-changing, there is still a bottom line!" Guo Hong turned his eyes and asked, "How is the negotiation going in Baiyujing?"
The topic turned to Bai Yujing.
Da Shen ordered: "My Lord, Baiyujing is willing to follow the previous agreement and send the princess to marry. They proposed that in the early spring of next year, our court should send an envoy to Baiyujing to discuss the details of the princess' marriage."
"Okay! As long as you are willing to abide by the previous agreement!" Guo Hong smiled.
Baiyujing had an agreement with the Ziqiwen Dynasty and the Dongyuxian Dynasty. The winner would be decided by a battle between Baiyuwen and Dongyuxian Dynasty. If Baiyuwen won the battle against Dongyuxian Dynasty, then they would have the result of a marriage between the two dynasties.
The prime minister actually had some hidden worries in his heart.
The biggest concern is what happens today.
He was worried that deposing the crown prince would cause such a scandal and such turmoil that it would affect the agreement with Baiyujing.
And this concern is also justified. Your Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty has been infiltrated by the Qinglian Sect. Who knows whether the blood of your remaining princes is pure? In this case, Bai Yujing will naturally have objections and is not very willing to marry into the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty. If the marriage is to a notorious bloodline from a foreign land, where will Bai Yujing put his face?
But today, the Great Shen Order brought good news.
Even though the crown prince was deposed, Bai Yujing was still willing to form an alliance, which was good.
"Prime Minister, the selection of the envoy sent to Baiyujing is crucial."
Guo Hong nodded gently. "There were some disagreements in Baiyujing about the marriage between the two dynasties. Now the Ziqi Wen Dynasty has not given up, and our dynasty has had this scandal... No one knows what kind of variables will arise in the formal marriage process. Therefore, our envoys must be both wise and brave, both civil and military, and absolutely loyal to the Dongyu Xian Dynasty. Otherwise, they will not be able to see through the other party's plan and promote the prestige of our dynasty, and it will be very easy to turn a good thing into a bad thing."
"Your Excellency has put forward such harsh conditions that it is difficult for me to find a suitable candidate at the moment." Da Shen ordered.
"This selection is of great importance. I will meet your Majesty now. Perhaps your Majesty has a suitable candidate in mind..."
In the abyss of literature...
The first snow of this year finally fell...
Floating and pure white...
Lin Su sat in the small pavilion in the backyard, her eyes occasionally sweeping across the chest of the pig bouncing in front of her. Just looking at the degree of the bouncing of the chest, it was quite impressive, but thinking about her mother's human skin lantern was enough to make one's blood temperature drop by seven or eight degrees. Then, looking at the three words carved by the pig on the pavilion: Duliangting, Lin Su felt a little sour in his teeth.
Duliangting, ask around in the world, which pavilion is called Duliangting?
My consciousness sank into the inner space, where there were two steles called tombstones.
Come out and stroll around the yard, it's cool and quiet there.
Drifting in the dangerous world, you all want to try this trick with me, do you still want the jackpot? Will I be able to survive the coming New Year?
Ji Qianling on the other side glanced at the heavy snow outside: "The Spring Festival is coming soon."
"Yes!"
"How do you arrange it?"
"What can I do? I can just live here, chewing on the pig's rabbit and enjoying your gentle care."
"You wish!" Ji Qianling glared at him: "I have a father and a mother. Why would I stay here with you and show you tenderness and concern? Am I not afraid that my mother will break my legs?"
Zhu'er was happy: "It's okay, sir, I'll spend the New Year with you! I'm not afraid of my mother breaking her legs."
"You're thinking too much!" Ji Qianling turned his gaze to Zhu'er: "Don't forget whose girl you are!"
Zhu'er was anxious: "Miss, do you have any sympathy? The young master has nowhere to go, can you bear to let him be alone here? It's New Year's Day..."
"What about you? Do you have any sympathy? You are so happy, but if he is skinned and made into a lantern by your mother in the future, how can you bear it?"
"Ah? Miss, you...you are so direct..." Zhuer flew away holding his face.
Her face, viewed from the side, was completely red.
Lin Su and Ji Qianling looked at each other, both stunned...
Is this direct?
What direct?
Are our ways of thinking on the same channel?
"Okay, she's gone! No matter how irrational this escape is, it's finally quiet!" Ji Qianling said, "The battle reports from the front have been sent back one after another. Do you want to hear them?"
Lin Su held up the teacup: "Tell me!"
"You know what happened in the capital, so I won't go into detail. I'll just give you a conclusion. Because of you, a bunch of people lost their lives, lost their jobs, and their entire clans were executed. Currently, there are more than a million people in Xiandu who wish to turn you into ashes."
Lin Su nodded gently: "This is not worthy of praise. I am like this wherever I go. I am used to it! Let's talk about the outside..."
praise?
My goodness!
Is this something worthy of praise?
Are you obedient and able to grasp the key points?
Ji Qianling shook his head slightly: "The situation outside is going smoothly. The three million troops have surrounded Haoyuan Sect tightly. Liangshan, Cuiwei Mountain, Donghe Valley, Chunyang Sect, oh, and of course our Luotian Sect, all the top leaders have gone out and have penetrated into Haoyuan Sect for 300 miles. No disciples of Haoyuan Sect have escaped so far."
"Is Jiang Lie in the circle?"
"There are signs that he is here!" Ji Qianling said, "But don't be too optimistic. A top expert like him can get into trouble at any time. Even if the entire sect is destroyed, this person must have a way to survive. It may not be possible to really eliminate him."
"That's right! But the game has come to this point after all. No matter how powerful he is, he can't turn the tide." Lin Su said.
Ji Qianling shook her head gently: "You still didn't hear the point of my words. If he really escapes, who do you think he would want to take revenge on the most?"
"We!" Lin Su said.
Ji Qianling's eyes widened: "Why do you have to add 'we'? Just say that you are the one I want to take revenge on the most, can you die?"
Lin Su nodded gently: "Yes!"
That’s the direct answer.
If the person that Haoyuan Sect wanted to take revenge on was Lin Su alone, then he would really have to die.
However, Lin Su's meaning was very clear, that was not the case.
We did this together.
So, if the enemy wants to retaliate, it should be against "us".
He will even retaliate against the entire Luotian Sect.
Therefore, the senior leaders of Luotian Sect need to correct their attitudes and stop trying to trip me up, Lin Su. You should follow me all the way to the end! Ji Qianling, don't even think about running away! Your father, don't even think about running away!
Your piggy, that weird mother who enjoys skinning people, don’t even think about running away!
This is why Lin Su went to the south of the Yangtze River in the misty rain, bringing two girls with him.
Ji Qianling groaned and put his hand on his forehead: "Junior brother, you must have been a professional in digging pits to bury people. You must have buried a lot of people, right?"
"Ahem, not much, not much, thank you for the compliment..."
Lin Su's voice suddenly stopped...
His gaze was directed outside the pavilion.
On the bluestone road outside, Xiaorou came quickly, holding a strange invitation in her hand: "Master, a guest sent an invitation, please come to our house for a chat."
"Who?" Lin Su was slightly stunned.
Ji Qianling was also slightly startled. To be exact, she was startled by seeing this invitation...
"Rou Si Pavilion, Zhu Dan!"
Lin Su frowned slightly: "Rousi Pavilion? The one who gave me the Tianyaoqin during the Baiyuwen battle that day?"
During the Baiyuwen battle, facing the verbal threats from the elders of Baiyujing and the Ziqiwenchao contestants, Lin Su could not use his flute and could only use his zither. However, he did not have a zither at that time. Countless zithers rose up from all over the city. He was more impressed by two of them, one was the Qingying guqin and the other was the Tianyao guqin.
At that time, he was not familiar with the situation and didn't know who the two pianos represented.
Later he entered Wenyuan Library and learned a lot of things.
The Tianyao guqin belongs to the Rousi Pavilion.
It is an extremely elegant and mysterious place in the capital.
Xiaorou didn't understand the specific situation and was a little confused...
Ji Qianling nodded gently: "That's right!"
"Under the circumstances of that day, this is a favor to me!" Lin Su stood up: "For me, the most difficult thing to accept is the favor of a beautiful woman. Since she invited me, I naturally have to go!"
One step down the pavilion.
Ji Qianling spoke from behind: "It is because of beauty that it is called beauty's favor, and it is hard to accept, right? What if she is not beautiful?"
"How is that possible? Senior sister, you have to see the essence through the phenomenon!" Lin Su said: "A kind-hearted woman like her is still a beauty even if her body is not beautiful. It is low-level and has no vision to define beauty and ugliness based on the height of breasts or the whiteness of skin!"
Ji Qianling bit her lips and said, "Are you alluding to Zhu'er or me? Are you scolding us for being so ignorant?"
"Senior sister, you are too sensitive. I really didn't react, even though your skin... is really white."
This sentence can be regarded as a compliment even if it is put to the sky, but it must be said that words have context. Ji Qianling looked down at his chest, and a nameless anger rose in his heart.
You filthy rascal, I correspond to the skin and breasts correspond to the pigs, right?
what do you mean?
I have fair skin and big breasts, how dare you say I have a flat chest?!
Lin Su took the invitation and unfolded it...
There is a line of beautiful handwriting on it...
"Mr. Lin Su, please come to Zhuque Lane." The signature below was made of thousands of soft silk threads, crimson in color, just like a plum blossom.
This invitation is also unusual. It is not made of paper, but woven with some unknown silk thread. It has a hidden plum blossom pattern, and is extremely elegant and high-end.
This is the "Soft Silk Post" that the Master of the Silk Pavilion would only send to the top people in Xiandu.
When Lin Su stepped out of Wenyuan, heavy snow was already falling on the streets outside.
Amidst the snow, a small sedan chair covered with green felt was parked in the snow. A beautiful woman in purple stood beside the sedan chair and bowed slightly to Lin Su: "Mr. Lin, I am sorry for inviting you rashly. The weather has changed suddenly. I am sorry for tiring you to go out in such snowy and foggy weather."
"Meeting a beautiful woman in the snow is a beautiful story! How can you say it's rude?"
"Young master is very generous! Please come in!" The woman in purple bowed.
Lin Su stepped onto the sedan chair, which flew up into the air, moved close to the ground, crossed the street in front, and bypassed the Suzaku Bridge. In front was a small lake, the water of which was still green at this moment. There was an alley beside the lake, and this alley was the elegant place in Xiandu, Suzaku Alley.
In Zhuque Lane, a great scholar lived in seclusion.
This is a sentence that everyone in Xiandu knows.
When Lin Su entered Zhuque Lane, he immediately felt the long-lost atmosphere of literature and Taoism.
The road is a bluestone road.
The lane is the Jiuqu Long Corridor Lane.
On both sides of the alley, the sound of reading can be heard. The books being read are the dozens of books found in Lin Su Wenyuan's library. They talk about reason, philosophy, and humanity. Although they are not named as Bibles, in this world, they are Bibles, similar to "Analects of Confucius" and "Tao Te Ching".
As these books were recited, the fluttering snow seemed to disappear here, and the faint waves of heavenly literary waves turned this place into a place of books.
There is a courtyard in front, which is ancient and quaint.
The sedan stopped outside the courtyard gate, and the purple-dressed woman gently lifted the curtain: "Young Master, please."
Lin Su looked around and was a little surprised: "Is this Rousi Pavilion?"
The purple-clothed woman smiled softly: "It is also a bit noisy in the Silk Courtyard. My young lady prefers quietness to movement, so she bought this small courtyard as her private residence."
