Kunlun one millet

Chapter 312

"They asked you to take the immortal cauldron?"

In the prime minister's mansion, He Qingchen listened to Zhao Mi's report of the previous discussion with the King of Yue and others, showing a thoughtful expression.

"I have already agreed." Zhao Mi said, "According to what they said, the Immortal Cauldron is now hidden by a group of monks in Xilu Mountain. I heard that there is the border between Xiong Kingdom and Yaochi Kingdom?"

"Almost." He Qingchen got up and came to a screen, and hung down a scroll of Kunlun map that was roughly square meters, pointing to a lofty mountain: "The border between the two countries on Xilu Mountain has not been clearly delineated, although there are a few small roads, But it is inconvenient for the army to pass through. Many smugglers just go to Xilu Mountain to travel between the two countries."

"Since Mr. Zuo knows that there are people smuggling between the two countries, why don't you stop them?" Zhao Mi asked.

He Qingchen cast a mysterious smile: "Because those smugglers are the ones I arranged, otherwise, where do you think those wealthy Wubao in Yaochi Kingdom who are against King Baixiang got their armour?"

Zhao Mi was slightly surprised: "I have long heard that the powerful people from all over Yaochi are guarding their forts, and the king of Baixiang never trusts the local people, so he recruits various tribes of the Rong tribe to carry out massacres at every turn. I didn't expect you to be among them. layout."

"I'm just pushing the boat along with the flow, and I can't make things out of thin air." He Qingchen explained: "The king of Baixiang can't talk about governing the country at all, he just relies on his own strength to take what he wants, and even exorbitant taxation is considered a compliment. He put The various tribes of the Rong tribe are regarded as running dogs, and they treat the people of Yaochi Kingdom as prey, and they are tyrannical and immoral, which is bound to cause rebellion."

"With a high cultivation level, you may not be able to govern one side." Zhao Mi said, "Don't talk about this, what do you think about the fairy cauldron in Xilu Mountain?"

"I still want to ask you!" He Qingchen sat down and said: "King Yue is the only remaining brother of the late emperor. He did not participate in the palace change back then. He can be regarded as a happy prince. He yearned for the immortal family road, but he failed in cultivation."

"The king of Yue gave me gifts before, and I didn't refuse, and you didn't say much." Zhao Mi said, "Perhaps because of this, he thinks that I can be wooed, and..."

Seeing that Zhao Mi hesitated to speak, He Qingchen smiled and said, "And what?"

"You're getting old." Zhao Mi looked at the gray-bearded He Qingchen, and said in a slightly serious tone, "You haven't become a fairy after all, and you can't live forever. It's impossible to form a party and rebel, and assassination and assassination can't kill you, but you can't beat it after all. The years pass by. The imperial clan of Xiong Kingdom dare not confront you head-on, they just wait for you to die."

He Qingchen's face did not appear depressed, and he said in a flat tone: "I know it very well, but as long as they don't openly do bad things, I don't intend to tear my face apart."

"That's why you are so eager to annex Nantu?" Zhao Mi asked, "Are you worried that the situation will change behind you, so you plan to finish the matter as soon as possible?"

"Things can't be finished, and I'm not too naive." He Qingchen leaned back in his chair: "But I always want to stabilize the situation as much as possible, so that the unification of Kunlun by Xiong becomes an irreversible trend. "

"From my point of view, this general trend has become more and more obvious. Countries such as Jiuli and Yaochi are not enough to compete with Youxiong Kingdom." Zhao Mi said with a smile: "It's better to say that Jiuli Kingdom intends to invade China. It is making the last fight. If there is no action, Xiong Guo will wait for a few years to recuperate, and the annexation of the Southern Land will be ruined."

"Li Chun is considered a half-smart person, but that's all. As for King Baixiang, he is just a mad dog. When you kill him in the future, his followers will naturally disperse, and Yaochi Kingdom will not be pushed back." He Qingchen The tone was flat, as if destroying a country was just casual.

"The King of Baixiang is one of the peaks of Kunlun, and I am not sure of victory now." Zhao Mi said.

He Qingchen raised his eyes and said, "Do you think the Fourth Immortal's retreat is really an excuse?"

Zhao Mi understood it immediately, it can be seen that He Qingchen really made all kinds of preparations, even if he was as strong as the king of Baixiang, he was already in his calculations.

"You should be more vigilant about the fairy cauldron." He Qingchen continued: "The king of Yue and the others are not fools, it is impossible that they did not expect that you would tell me, presumably it was just to take the opportunity to win over you.

I also have a general idea of ​​the situation in Xilu Mountain. The rebels and bandits there escaped from the Yaochi Kingdom, and most of the local monks are disciples of the sect that was exterminated by the Baixiang King. "

He Qingchen's words reminded Zhao Mi of Lu Wangji. Fengming Valley, where she was born, was destroyed by King Baixiang, but she fled further and settled directly in Huaxu Kingdom.From this point of view, King Baixiang really did a lot of crimes in Yaochi Kingdom.

"What if they set up a trick to murder me?" Zhao Mi asked.

"Murdering you? Ha!" He Qingchen laughed out loud: "Looking at the world today, there are very few people who can beat you. If they really want to kill you, how many lives will they have to fight? Cao Qingwei taught the lesson before, They are willing to seek death, and I don't care, just let go and kill them."

……

Even though He Qingchen said so, Zhao Mi did not dare to be negligent, and went to the Xilu Mountain Road with Mr. Zhibai and Chongzhan and his wife, and simply walked with a clone, while he himself disappeared and followed far behind. People can't even see through.

Since becoming a fetal immortal in Tiancheng Mountain, Zhao Mi felt that his cultivation base had been continuously improved.Because of the total control of the Qingya Wonderland, between breathing and breathing, the clear air of the cave is always refining the body of the semi-immortal, and there is no need to find a place to live in the blessed land like other monks.

Although Zhao Mi does not have Lingxiao to guide him now, the inheritance left by Liang Tao still includes the practice formulas after he transformed into a fetal immortal.

After concreting into a fetus, because of the condensed soul and rejuvenation, she was as weak as a baby at the beginning, vulnerable to external evils, and hidden dangers. The most important thing is to nourish her time.Fortunately, Zhao Mi passed through this step safely when he was repairing Tiancheng Mountain.

After warming, the fetal fairy will gradually thrive like a baby.According to what Liang Tao taught, the best way is to re-experience what you have learned in the past, and then integrate it.

This process is not dangerous, but the more mixed the past learning, the more difficult it is to integrate it, unless you actively choose to cut off part of it, save the chaff and preserve the foundation.On the contrary, the more complex foundations can be integrated, the greater the future achievements and the deeper and wider the mana will be.

For Zhao Mi, he was not from a great sect like Shangjingzong, and his roots were mixed, so naturally he had to gradually merge.During the year in the imperial capital, Zhao Mi was not only compiling laws and regulations for Xiongguo, but also reorganizing his own understanding of rituals and rituals.

The current Zhao Mi can transform into a clone and walk outside with a light breath of fresh air.If the avatar holds the yushu treasure staff, it can make it have high magic power, and it can also have the power to fight against ordinary evil spirits.Although it is not comparable to Liang Tao's clone back then, it is not comparable to monks like Chong Zhan and his wife.

"There is Xilu Mountain." Mr. Chong Zhan pointed to a stretch of mountains, including a narrow mountain pass.

Looking around, from the mountain pass to the wilderness and hills outside, many sentry towers, beacons, and fortresses have been built openly or secretly, which seems to be a heavily guarded pass.

Zhao Shu couldn't help asking: "This place is densely guarded. Could it be that the Yaochi Kingdom once invaded through this place?"

Mr. Chongzhan nodded and said: "About [-] years ago, there was a division of Yaochi Kingdom who detoured to Xilu Mountain. For many years, except for a few suspicious soldiers, the Yaochi Kingdom has not been seen marching here."

In the distance, the deity of Zhao Mi sacrificed the Great Mirror and explored the depths of Xilu Mountain.A flash of light and shadow flashed in the mirror, and I saw many settlements of people located in deep valleys. The local people had a hard life, things were scarce, and there were many skinny people.

In addition, Zhao Mi used the Daming Mirror to see some guys with unusual appearances. They haunted the countryside, and the local people worshiped them as gods.These people did not ask for offering money, but took out the pills very "generously" and distributed them to the villagers one by one.

The villagers who got the elixir impatiently swallowed it, and felt their bodies warm after a while. The limbs that were originally stiff due to the bitter cold in the mountains became flexible and light, and their vitality and spirit doubled.

Zhao Mi frowned slightly. The usual elixir that nourishes vitality still requires a monk to take it and adjust his breath to refine it. Such a quick effect must be due to the strong nature of the medicine, which is not a good thing for ordinary people.

Although he couldn't test the efficacy of the elixir himself, Zhao Mi could somewhat guess that the elixirs distributed to the villagers were all used to stimulate the vitality of the viscera.

Although the elixir can make the villagers energetic for a while, when the effect of the medicine wears off, they will only feel very tired, and doing so is really a waste of food, and it will not last long.

"I have already sensed the smoke from the furnace in the mountain." Zhao Mi's avatar looked into the distance.

"As expected of Fellow Daoist Xu, the eyes are like torches, and the evil spirits have nowhere to escape!" Mr. Zhibai said excitedly.

Mrs. Chong Zhan said in a hurry: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Zhao Mi and the others cast their spells, soared into the sky, and flew towards the depths of Xilu Mountain.After climbing over many mountains, I finally saw a dojo cave of the first scale. Among them, the stone steps hovered, the iron cables volleyed in the air, the waterfalls were like training, and the mountains were green. A piece of palaces and towers were built against the mountains. But it can also be regarded as a cave house outside the dust.

"It's here." Mr. Chong Zhan was a little surprised: "I didn't expect that the construction of the pavilions here is progressing rapidly in just half a year. When our husband and wife came last time, the foundations and beams of those pavilions had just been laid."

"Ordinary people can't easily build many pavilions in this deep mountain." Zhao Mi said, "There must be some experts to help. I'm afraid there are quite a few monks involved."

The deity Zhao Shu used the Great Ming Mirror to see more. He found that there was a demonic aura between the palace and the towers. Obviously, there was a big demon who used his magic power to help the pavilion to be completed.

From this point of view, I'm afraid this is not a monk's cave, but a lair of evil spirits.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, what should we do now?" Mr. Zhibai asked: "I think it's not easy to build such a temple. Why don't we investigate secretly and wait for the opportunity to steal the immortal cauldron?"

Mr. Chong Zhan was a little more cautious: "This plan may not be feasible. We don't know how many restrictions have been placed here. Besides, there are monks coming and going in and out of the palaces and pavilions. Once they find out, I'm afraid they will be attacked from multiple sides."

"With Fellow Daoist Xu here, what are you afraid of, my husband?" Mrs. Chong Zhan was eager to try.

Zhao Shu said: "Here the monks test the medicine on innocent villagers. Even if they are not evil spirits, they are also scum from other sects. How can we just sit idly by and just focus on the divine cauldron?"

Chong Zhan and his wife looked at each other, they all showed embarrassment, they cupped their hands and said: "It's because I have a biased mind, which made Fellow Daoist Xu laugh."

Seeing them like this, Zhao Mi didn't say much, and suddenly sensed a few monks in the distance returning to the ashram in the mountains, chatting and laughing all the way, so he pinched his fingers and captured the sound of the conversation through the air, making everyone feel as if they were in their bodies. Immerse yourself on the scene, listen to the conversation——

"I didn't expect the elixir made from the divine cauldron to have the effect of aphrodisiac, and it will fascinate those little girls."

"It's a pity, there are some people who fled from the mountains in Xilu Mountain, all of them are sallow and thin, and they can't cheer up when they see it."

"Don't worry, this test of medicine has roughly figured out the law of the Immortal God's Cauldron. In the future, as long as you follow the usual practice, you can continuously refine it into panacea."

"Having such fetishes, my Ancient Cauldron Sect will definitely be a dominant immortal inheritance in the future!"

"Extremely extreme! I heard that the Shangjingzong of the Xiong Kingdom was forced to escape into the mountains. If we manage well, we can take those nobles who are greedy for life and afraid of death for our own use!"

"I can't wait anymore, I don't know when the head will let me wait to come out of the mountain. I'm always going around in this poor mountain and evil water, it's almost driving people crazy."

After listening to the conversation of those monks, Mr. Chong Zhan showed confusion: "The name of the ancient tripod gate has never been heard, and these monks are still here to establish a sect?"

"It seems that they have ulterior motives and are planning to use the elixir made from the Immortal Cauldron to try to bribe the nobles of the court." Mr. Zhibai shook his head and said.

"How can they get what they want?!" Mrs. Chong Zhan said, "Friend Xu Daoist, let's do it!"

Zhao Mi remained silent, he sensed that those cultivators from the Ancient Cauldron Sect had almost no restraint in their mana, and their mana seemed to be quite impressive.

But listening to the conversation of these few monks, the words are full of worldly desires and delusions, which can be said to have no foundation of xinxing practice.

Taoism is based on tranquility, so even if you don't deliberately pursue the inheritance of cultivating your mind, as long as you have a foundation of meditation and pure cultivation, your mind will not be too impetuous.

At least Zhao Mi can roughly distinguish laymen from monks through words and deeds.Even if they were heretics, these monks from the Ancient Cauldron Sect were too disproportionate to the aura they exuded.

"I have a plan." Zhao Mi said: "Several people made noise outside the dojo, which attracted the inner monks to go out to investigate. Xu took the opportunity to enter the dojo and look for the fairy cauldron. If you encounter a strong enemy, you should cooperate with the inside and outside. , kill him."

Chong Zhan and his wife asked: "Is this too risky? Fellow Daoist Xu enters alone. If he gets lost, we will be unable to do anything even if we help each other."

"Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures." Zhao Mi was taking the lead this time, of course he had no scruples, not to mention that he didn't fully trust the three people in the same industry, and this move was also deliberately testing them.

If Chong Zhan and his wife had the same bad intentions and colluded with the inside and outside of the ancient tripod gate, then Zhao Mi would not mind killing them.
