Starting from Detective Li Yuanfang Chapter 1126 Above the Capital, the Dragon Appears

"Little Heavenly Master, please stay!"

"Yan Shaoqing, walk slowly...why is it raining again?"

Yan Maoqing bowed his hands in salute and got into the sedan. Tao Shi'en carefully ordered the sedan to get up and move slowly, then watched it leave. Looking at the rain falling from the sky again, he turned back to the mansion and sighed unconsciously.

In the past, it was Guo Hongjing and Wang Yongning who were responsible for dealing with these dignitaries. Although those two men were shallow in cultivation, they were very good at it. They frequented various mansions and became guests.

The grass has not yet grown on the tombs of Guo Hongjing and Wang Yongning. Feng Zezi was murdered by that man together with the Jin Yiwei. Fan Xueya is missing, and it is probably more serious than that. Of Tao Zhongwen's six direct disciples, only Tao Shi'en and the youngest Dian are left.

Shinji.

Although there are still a large number of disciples, he, the little heavenly master, has to take the initiative to deal with matters like the strict party.

In response, Tao Shien felt tired, confused and slightly afraid.

"That person hasn't even arrived in the capital yet, but we, the Heavenly Masters, are already like this?"

"And now...he is really coming!"

Tao Shien was stunned for a long time, then walked towards the backyard.

In the capital city where the powerful gathered and the bells and dinners were ringing, even though Tao Zhongwen was already a highly respected official, his residence was not very splendid. It was far inferior to Yan Shifan who had four or five other courtyards in the city and a summer resort outside the city.

The luxury of the manor.

But when Tao Shien took strange steps and went deep into the backyard, a layer of invisible ripples rippled, and the rain outside instantly disappeared, and a blessed land spiritual area appeared inside.

Tao Zhongwen has a special place to practice Taoism, and it's not that there is a cave there. After all, he is the leader of the Taoist sect and the master of Shenxiao. However, the mansion at home also has a blessed place, which is the real luxury.

Tao Shi'en stepped inside and saw at a glance that five Taoists were carrying the inner breath, meditating and practicing. One of them, with a face like a crown jade and the most handsome one, was none other than the youngest disciple Nori Shinji.

At this time, the junior disciple was teaching four others, because these four were the new disciples that Tao Zhongwen had recently selected from the sect, and Nori Shinji was teaching on his behalf.

Seeing him approaching, the five Taoists stood up and said respectfully: "Elder brother!"

"I...I became a senior brother?"

Tao Shien hadn't realized much at first, but now he suddenly realized that with all the people in front of him dead, wasn't he now the senior brother?

"Yeah! Keep practicing!"

But he was not willing to sit in this position at all. He wanted to practice without any distractions and improve his cultivation. He could only nodded stiffly and continued walking inside.

Arriving in front of the house where Tao Zhongwen practiced, Tao Shien stood quietly outside and said respectfully: "Father!"

A voice that seemed far away came from inside: "What's the matter?"

Tao Shi'en said: "My child has been restless recently and wants to ask for advice on spiritual practice..."

After a while, a voice came out again: "Come in!"

Tao Shi'en walked in and saw an old Taoist priest sitting on a Bagua altar, wearing a feather and a star crown, with a long white beard and a fluttering fairy look.

This Great Tomorrow Master is seventy-nine years old this year, five years older than Yan Song. However, compared to Yan Song, who is dim-sighted and has low energy, Tao Zhongwen has smooth skin, fair hair and a childlike face. As he approaches, he feels an inexplicable sense of tranquility.

Meaning.

Tao Shi'en knew very well that this sense of tranquility was, on the one hand, the result of his father's contribution to creation, and on the other hand, it was also related to the Heavenly Master's orb.

It's a pity that the treasure is never easily shown to others, and even his descendant has not seen it a few times.

Looking at his son, Tao Zhongwen swung the fly whisk in his hand, put it on his arm, and said calmly: "Cultivation of great medicine is easy and difficult, and we know that it depends on me and God. You have insufficient experience and a defective state of mind. The battle in the East China Sea."

When you come back and shoulder the burden of the family again, can you still make no progress? With such fear and panic, and uneasy mind, the road is far away!"

Tao Shi'en heard the words and said in a solemn voice: "I am ashamed of myself, I have disobeyed my father's teachings!"

Tao Zhongwen said calmly: "To reconcile the dragon and the tiger, to catch the obstacles and fill in the gaps, it is practice. The world is rolling, and to fight for the situation is also grinding. Sit down!"

Tao Shi'en bowed and sat down on the futon in front of the altar. After listening to the specific teachings for a while, he suddenly asked: "Father, practice is so difficult. Dare I ask... what method did Li Shizhen inherit?"

Tao Zhongwen said: "There is no superior or inferior method. This person also cultivates the golden elixir path."

Tao Shien was puzzled: "Then why is it so powerful? Is it because of Taoist medicine? But I don't believe that it can be tempered by just practicing medicine!"

Tao Zhongwen said: "It may not only be limited to this life, but also enlightened by the wisdom of past lives..."

Tao Shien was startled, with a look of shame and annoyance on his brows.

Is this the rhythm of comparing this life with the previous life? His pride cannot allow it: "This person is about to enter the capital. Your Majesty is looking forward to him. I don't believe in the wisdom of the past life and intend to fight with him."

, what does father think?"

Tao Zhongwen did not approve, but his eyes became sharp: "Have you gone to inquire about the news in the palace?"

Tao Shien hurriedly explained: "My child just wants to know what His Majesty thinks of that person..."

Tao Zhongwen said coldly: "What's the result?"

As a heavenly master, he often went to the palace to refine elixirs, so Ouchi naturally had some spies. While Tao Shien had been in contact with Yan Dang recently, he did inquire about a lot of things in the palace, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty didn't mention it, but his mood was obvious.

He changed for the better, obviously hoping that Li Shizhen would come, this person is too great a threat to us!"

Tao Zhongwen shook his head gently: "Zhi punishes Zang Fu, the Sacred Heart is dictatorial. This position of Heavenly Master cannot be taken away. Now after such an investigation, he has fallen behind..."

Tao Shi'en naturally hoped that the position of Heavenly Master would not be taken away, but he felt that there was no good news recently: "His Majesty has withdrawn Shoudao, the strict party has violated the law, and the Jin Yiwei is watching covetously. Even the Zhengyi sects are dissatisfied, and Lan Daoxing has also been dissatisfied recently.

Make elixirs for Your Majesty...Father, I am not just worrying about things in vain, the situation is actually very bad!"

Tao Zhongwen looked at him: "So you want to fight with Li Shizhen to restore the reputation of our Tao family?"

Tao Shien's eyes were firm: "My child is not good enough to be sure of victory, but I still have to give it a try, at least to find out his background!"

Tao Zhongwen stared for a moment, the sharpness in his eyes disappeared, and he said calmly: "I'm afraid you won't be able to compete with Li Shizhen, and you will fight with that evil boy instead."

"Tao Yin?"

Tao Shien tried his best to avoid the topic of the illegitimate child during this period. At this moment, he recalled the heavy past and gritted his teeth and said: "This monster has taken refuge in Li Shizhen?"

Tao Zhongwen corrected: "You shouldn't call me that."

Tao Shien realized that Tao Yin had always been Tao's illegitimate son in the Taoist sect's mind. If his identity were really revealed, wouldn't he also be involved in it?

When they first met, he was afraid of Tao Yin surrendering to the government, so he complied with his request. As a result, he was pressed step by step, retreated again and again, and finally lost it completely...

Tao Shien sniffed, barely suppressed his turbulent emotions, and said in a deep voice: "Li Shizhen dares to keep Tao Yin by his side, isn't he afraid that his identity as a monster will be exposed and his majesty will be offended?"

Tao Zhongwen said: "Your Majesty doesn't care."

Tao Shi'en was a little embarrassed. He thought that Jiajing didn't care. His father could have children with the demon clan. He didn't dare to delve deeper into this issue. He followed the topic and said: "Then what your Majesty cares about is Li Shizhen's medical skills and alchemy.

Can he extend your majesty’s life?”

Tao Zhongwen's tone finally became serious: "Of course not! Yes and no!"

Tao Shien was startled at first, his eyes gradually widened, and he murmured: "This is the most important thing..."

The fundamental purpose of Jiajing's emphasis on Taoism was to attain Taoism and become an immortal, which would otherwise prolong life far beyond that of ordinary people. Therefore, the protection from cold and heat was something that the Taoist emperor particularly liked.

Wandering around inside the house, in order to show the difference from the mortal people.

Jiajing's expectations for Li Shizhen should also be here. A miracle doctor who can cure diseases of gods and gradually revive the long-dormant Shinto will naturally be more likely to help him become an immortal...

Tao Zhongwen would not let that kind of thing come true. He was waiting for the opportunity to prove that Li Shizhen couldn't do it either.

If both sides could not make Jiajing live forever, why did Jiajing remove him as a heavenly master and replace him with a Taoist doctor who was not obedient and had his own way of doing things?

At most, it only takes a dozen hits and a pull!

Fundamentally, no matter how fickle and moody Jiajing was, his extremely selfish nature would not change. Tao Zhongwen was able to have such power because he always grasped this point and had the "red lead pill" and "gong palace".

Measures such as "Main Fire" and "Two Dragons Never Meet", each step accurately grasped the likes and dislikes of the Taoist Emperor.

In comparison, this son obviously couldn't see the situation clearly. In this regard, Tao Zhongwen had to warn: "If you don't want to get entangled with Tao Yin, that evil son, don't worry about the outside world, settle down the Taoist affairs first, Yan Dang's

Bian Xu responded, and we need to be more careful with the royal guards, do you understand?"

Tao Shien understood everything before, but in the end he couldn't help but ask: "Father, there are rumors outside that Governor Lu was murdered in the southeast. It was us who instigated it, so he hates his father deeply. Is this... Li Shizhen's fault?"

Tao Zhongwen said: "You can say that externally, but internally you don't have to deceive yourself. It's just one move away."

Tao Shien's expression changed: "So, we really have become mortal enemies with Governor Lu...Lu Bing?"

Tao Zhongwen looked indifferent: "As for the affairs of the court, there are indeed troubles, but there is no need to worry too much."

"How can I not worry?"

Tao Shi'en couldn't accept it: "Unless you practice cultivation in the deep mountains and old forests, as long as you have contact with the secular world, you will inevitably have to deal with those Jin Yiwei. If Lu Bingzhen wants to oppose us everywhere, he will be a greater threat than Li Shizhen!"

Tao Zhongwen frowned slightly, but finally turned his whisk away and pointed to the shelf not far away: "Go get the gold box."

Tao Shien stood up, came to the shelf, took down a pure gold box, and came to Tao Zhongwen.

"Open!"

Hearing his father's instructions, he looked forward to it, took a deep breath, and opened the box.

A cold air rushed out, but instead of the treasure as imagined, there was a thick stack of banknotes in a rather strange style.

Tao Zhongwen said: "This is the underworld ticket, which is specially used by the Netherworld underworld. You can use it to bribe the Nine Netherworld envoys."
To be continued...
