Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 420 Idol
In the yard, Chen Yun did not immediately agree whether to help out.

He looked at Cai Rujin and asked, "Who is not even your rival?"

Although Chen Yun did not activate the Qi Observation Technique, he could still detect that Cai Rujin was now only one step away from the realm of the leader.

Such superb cultivation.

It is considered to be the top combat power in the world.

Naturally, he wanted to know the true strength of his opponent.

Cai Rujin asked, "I wonder if my uncle has ever heard of Liang Zhen?"

Chen Yun was startled, "White-clothed Prime Minister Liang Zhen?"

Cai Rujin nodded and said, "Yes, that's him."

Hearing this, Chen Yun couldn't help but frown. Of course he had heard of this person.

Liang Zhen's real name was Liang Ai. When he was young, he went to visit Liu Xiang, who was a Jinshi.

So Gao Jixing racked his brains and came up with a way to make money, that is, robbery on the road.

Cai Rujin said: "There's no rush, the war won't take place in a day or two."

Liang Zhen then changed his name, and later "he achieved high rank and became well-known among the princes."

One move in seconds?

Unexpectedly, Gao Jixing pretended to be stupid and refused to admit it.

Otherwise, Uncle Zheng Wen would not have asked Cai Rujin to come over and ask him to come out.

Chen Yun asked: "I remember that the new imperial court was just established not long ago. Why did you think of mobilizing foreign troops?"

He explained it roughly.

He never agreed to be awarded an official position, and always used Bai Yi as an adviser to Gao Jixing and his son.

No one knows what kind of magic he practices, only that he has unpredictable means.

Jingnan was the only way for countries south of the Yangtze River to pay tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty.

Despite this, his status in Nanping was equivalent to that of prime minister, so he was called the Prime Minister in White.

Cai Rujin explained: "What happened can be traced back to the Liang Dynasty..."

According to this, Liang Zhen's cultivation level is at least the leader level.

The most important thing is that this person is now the leader of the monks in Jingdi.

As for whether he has attained enlightenment and become an immortal, Chen Yun thinks that he should not.

When Li Siyuan, Emperor Mingzong of the later Tang Dynasty, heard about this, he was furious and sent someone to ask Gao Jixing for it.

Unexpectedly, Gao Jixing turned his nose up and asked Li Siyuan to reward him with territory in two states.

If anyone offends Liang Zhen to death, it is equivalent to offending the entire Jingdi monks.

Liu Xiang said to him: "Lang Jun is talented and smart at a young age. If you take the imperial examination, you will become a great person in a short time. But you need to change your name, otherwise you will not be able to express yourself. The word 'Miao' is the word 'Ye' after the word 'Yu' The word "Zhen" is the word "Chen" under the word "Yu", and "Chen" is the word "Chen" under the word "Yu". Dragon can change when it encounters rain. This is the correct answer. A sign of burning tail."

Cai Rujin smiled bitterly and said: "There are about twenty or thirty monks here, but they were all defeated by one of them. I went up to attack and was ambushed, but he spared my life because he was a fellow Taoist."

Later, he conquered the north and south, gained numerous military exploits, and became a warlord of one side.

The founder of Nanping was called Gao Jixing.

Send a boat eastward along the river to Luoyang, which happens to pass through Gao Jixing's territory.

Chen Yun was not afraid, but he didn't know Liang Zhen's methods, so he asked again: "Can you find out the situation by fighting him?"

Later, the Later Liang Dynasty was overthrown by the Later Tang Dynasty. Gao Jixing curried favor with Li Cunxu, Emperor Zhuangzong of the Later Tang Dynasty, and was named "King of Nanping".

At that time, the status of the Later Tang Dynasty was not stable.

Chen Yun pondered for a moment and said: "Well, since you came to visit me, I will accompany you for a while, but I will definitely not be able to go today. I have something important here, and I need to summon the avatar to take charge."

The most important achievement of this person is to assist Gao Jixing and his son in establishing Nanping.

Only then did Chen Yun understand what was going on.

Li Siyuan had no choice but to swallow back his anger.

Although the Nanping regime was established, because the territory was too small, only three states, the taxes collected were not enough.

About two years ago, the former Shu was destroyed by the Later Tang.

When he was young, he worked as a domestic slave for Zhu You, the godson of Zhu Wen, Taizu of the Later Liang Dynasty.

This made Gao Jixing feel like a fish in water and grabbed a lot of supplies.

Li Jiji of the Later Tang Dynasty plundered more than 400,000 gold and silk from Shu.

Gao Jixing was worried that he had no money to spend. After hearing the news, he immediately intercepted the ship and sent troops to rob it.

According to his understanding, this Liang Zhen is an old monster who has lived for an unknown number of years.

If it were just because of these deeds, Chen Yun would definitely not frown.

Because of this, the Nanping regime emerged.

Just when Li Siyuan wanted to win over Gao Jixing, he agreed to his request.

However, Li Siyuan still sent people to serve as governors of the two states.

Unexpectedly, Gao Jixing was so bold that after obtaining the land of the two states, he actually expelled all the governors of the two states appointed by Li Siyuan and replaced them with his nephews.

Faced with Gao Jixing's rogue appearance, Li Siyuan couldn't help but became furious. He ordered all the officials and titles of Gao Jixing to be deprived, and ordered Liu Xun, the governor of Shannan East Road, to come from the north, Dong Zhang, the governor of Dongchuan Province, and Xingfang Ye, the governor of Xinlong Kuizhou, to come from the west. , Ma Yin of Chu State sent troops from the south and besieged Nanping on three sides.

Li Siyuan's wishful thinking did not come true.

First of all, Dong Zhang did not obey the orders and did not send troops.

Ma Yin also only sent the capital commander Xu Dexun to lead the navy to garrison Yuezhou and watch from the sidelines.

Facing Liu Xun's attack, Gao Jixing stood firm in Jiangling Mansion and refused to fight. At the same time, he sent a letter to Wu for help.

Xu Wen was very active and immediately sent his navy upstream to the west.

Li Siyuan's three-sided siege strategy suddenly turned into a team of Gao Jixing and Xu Wen teaming up to deal with Liu Xun.

In fact, up to this point, Liu Xun could still barely attack.

Who would have thought that Liang Zhen came forward to call for rain and made Jiangling enter the rainy season ahead of schedule, causing many of Liu Xun's northern soldiers to fall ill.

Naturally, the Later Tang court also had a group of monks who joined in the battle to confer gods to help.

Li Siyuan immediately asked the monks to join the battle.

Afterwards, Cai Rujin and a group of monks rushed to Jiangling.

It's a pity that Liang Zhen was easily repelled by himself.

After hearing the details, Chen Yun blinked and asked, "How long did Liang Zhen make it rain in Jiangling?"

Cai Rujin recalled carefully: "It took about more than a month." It rained for a full month?

It seems that Liang Zhen is not simple.

Chen Yun could deduce from this that Liang Zhen's cultivation level should probably be in the middle stage of the leader realm, which is higher than himself in terms of realm.

No wonder Cai Rujin and other monks are not opponents.

Chen Yun knew what he was thinking, "Okay, then you stay here for one night, and I will go there tomorrow to quickly fight and help you subdue Liang Zhen so that he will not dare to help Nanping use his skills in the future."

Cai Rujin asked cautiously: "Uncle Master, are you going to bring the disciples' magic soldiers to surrender Liang Zhen?"

Chen Yun laughed dumbly and said: "Why do you need to bring the disciple's magic weapon?"

Cai Rujin smiled and said, "My nephew asked casually."

Was he really just asking casually?
Obviously, no.

Cai Rujin had long heard of Chen Yun's sensational deeds over the years, and knew that this junior uncle was now famous.

It's just that among these sensational deeds, Chen Yun's disciples and magic soldiers and generals are often inseparable.

Therefore, Cai Rujin guessed that Chen Yun's greatest combat power was the disciples and divine soldiers and generals he recruited from who knows where. As for his own strength, he was probably average.

Why does Cai Rujin have such thoughts?
The main reason is that Cai Rujin and Chen Yun have been separated for too long, and their impressions still remain at the Taoist Temple.

At that time, Chen Yun had not even practiced as a low-level mage.

Even now twenty or thirty years have passed.

Cai Rujin still didn't realize how advanced Chen Yun had reached in his cultivation.

After all, Cai Rujin also practices inner alchemy.

I know how fast the progress of practicing this method is probably.

He has now amazingly improved his qualifications. After practicing for more than a hundred years, he has only just touched the edge of the leader realm.

Therefore, Cai Rujin guessed that even if Chen Yun made rapid progress, at most his cultivation level would be the same as his, or slightly higher, such as the early stage of the leader realm, but he would definitely not be Liang Zhen's opponent.

Well, he didn't dare to use Qi Observation Technique on his uncle, so naturally he didn't know Chen Yun's true cultivation level.

Well, even if Cai Rujin really uses the Qi Observation Technique, Chen Yun's current state is indeed at the early stage of the leader realm, just like what he guessed.

To be precise, Cai Rujin didn't know how powerful Chen Yun's combat power was, so he asked if he wanted to bring his disciples, divine soldiers and generals with him.

He was afraid that Chen Yun would not be his opponent.

But now Chen Yun said that he would not bring any disciples or divine soldiers or generals.

Although Cai Rujin didn't dare to ask more questions, he was extremely worried in his heart.

……

Chen Yun asked Wu Xingde to arrange a private room for Cai Rujin, while he returned to the inner courtyard.

He found Wang Siyan who was sewing new clothes for himself, "Siyan, I have to go out tomorrow and should be back in a day or two. It's better for you to stay at home. When I'm not around, try to go out as little as possible."

Wang Siyan put down his sewing and said with a smile: "Brother Yun, don't worry, the Nu family doesn't like to be in public."

Chen Yun hummed, sat down on the stool at the door, and said casually: "I may stay in Luoyang for the next few years. What do you think I should do?"

Entering the world and tempering your mentality, it is certainly impossible to hide at home and do nothing.

He hadn't thought about finding a "career" for himself for a while, so he chatted with Wang Siyan.

Wang Siyan tilted his head and said, "Brother Yun, what do you know?"

Chen Yun smiled and said, "Don't you know what I know?"

Wang Siyan pursed his lips and smiled, "What Nujia means is, choose from the aspects you know how to do."

Yes.

Start with what I know.

Chen Yun thought carefully.

I know a lot of things, but I can't teach others to practice Taoism if I join the world, right?

In addition, it is impossible for me to teach others to practice spear and stick like a martial artist.

After Chen Yun thought about it, he felt that it would be better for him to become a "teacher".

Teach some children from poor families for free.

This will not only sharpen your state of mind, but also accumulate some good deeds.

He roughly had an idea and said: "Siyan, you can rent me a slightly more spacious house later. I want to run a private school for a few years. Well, the kind that doesn't charge tuition."

Wang Siyan said hurriedly: "Okay, go back and pay attention to the slave's house."

……

The next day, early in the morning.

When Chen Da arrived here, Chen Yun and Cai Rujin immediately set off for Jiangling.

Because Cai Rujin doesn't know how to use the golden light to travel quickly.

Therefore, it was almost noon when the two arrived.

Chen Yun had not yet had time to meet Kong Xun, the privy envoy of the Later Tang Dynasty who came to replace Liu Xun in commanding the troops.

He followed Cai Rujin to the camp where the monks lived.

There were about twenty or thirty monks in the camp, including men and women, old and young.

When everyone saw Cai Rujin and Chen Yun walking in, they all stood up with a rush.

One of the elderly men holding a dragon-head crutch asked with longing: "May I ask, sir, are you Chen Pu, Taoist Fellow Cai's uncle?"

Chen Yun nodded and said, "That's right, Pindao."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole camp was in an uproar.

"what?"

"Is it really Mr. Chen Pu?"

"What, I am actually lucky enough to meet Mr. Chen Pu, who is famous all over the country?"

"Mr. Chen, your name is well known to all of us. I am lucky enough to see you today. I...I am so excited."

"Teacher Chen, can I ask you some questions about spiritual practice?"

"Teacher Chen, I once saw your boundless magic in Dengzhou..."

A group of monks were so excited that they surrounded Chen Yun.

Cai Rujin, who was standing aside, looked a little dumbfounded. Although he had long known that his junior uncle was famous, he really didn't expect that Chen Yun had such a high status in the minds of this group of monks. As soon as he came in, he Let these monks keep chasing after them like they meet their idols?
