Chapter 237 Want to Go to Kyoto? Impossible!

The manifestation of the green hills and cliffs was much smoother.

On the right side of the intersection up the mountain, there appeared a cliff leading directly to the mountainside, which was discovered by pilgrims after a while, and they were all amazed.

After all, this is a great effort to change the landscape, and for the townspeople of Lingxi Town, it is not stingy with godly means.

However, Xiaoleiyin Temple, Yan Wangdian and Miaomu Mountain all reminded that "conditions are not enough to manifest".

On the contrary, the manifestation of the Heaven and Earth Monument fits extremely well.

As for its location, Zhang Ming almost thought about it. Could it be that Zhen Yuanzi moved the statue of the Sanqing God in the Sanqing Palace to the left and right sides, and gave the central position to the word "heaven and earth".

"Respect heaven and earth first, then ghosts and gods."

Zhang Ming said so, and immediately manifested the Heaven and Earth Monument here.

"Then inform Yiqing and Yixiu that they have come to sign in."

He smiled with satisfaction, and then came the moment of real harvest.

In fact, he has been doing it for so long, and Lu Xueqing and others who are watching from a distance have been very curious.

"Yiqing, go and inform everyone that as a teacher, you have discovered four holy places of heaven and earth in Zhuoguang Mountain. You can go over and sign in to see."

Zhang Ming found an excuse and ordered the matter to go on.

Lu Xueqing was pleasantly surprised: "Heavenly Dao Holy Land? Disciple, go and inform Uncle Qingquan and Elder Qu right now!"

Then, she left in a hurry.

Zhang Ming came to the backyard by himself and waited quietly for the results.

Nine Dragon Hall, Nether Palace and Green Mountain Cliff, these three are the newly manifested holy places.

Under the guidance of Zhang Ming, Qingquan, Lu Xueqing and others soon came to this place, and they were shocked.

"Is this... originally here? Or is it the holy place summoned by the senior brother?"

Qingquan's mouth can swallow ten eggs, but immediately began to sign in excitedly.

For half a day, Zhang Ming's ears were dominated by the joyful sound of "Ding Ding Ding". There were too many rewards, and he didn't even pay attention to them.

It wasn't until late afternoon that the ears were quiet.

"Let me see, what have I gained?"

It was only at this time that Zhang Ming looked at each of them with great interest, "Grass, Cao Zi Jian Jue! An Lan's Spear? Yuantu Sword?"

He only saw the first few, and he was already so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Also, and, this is... the Nine Secrets of Shrouding the Sky! Bing, Dou, Zhe, and Jie, they got four at once!"

The more he watched, the more shocked he became.

The Grass Character Sword Art is one of the supreme treasures that cover the sky and perfect the world. It is said that a single grass can cut off the sun, the moon and the stars.

And An Lan's gun is the gun of An Lan who is holding the original imperial city in one hand and is also invincible in the world.

Yuan Tu Sword is one of the treasures of the Nether Patriarch in the prehistoric world.

The nine secrets are even more miraculous. The secret of soldiers can control thousands of soldiers in the world, the secret of fighting can simulate all immortal attacks, the secret of Zhe can instantly restore people to their original state when they are seriously injured, and the secret of Jie can increase their combat power by ten times... …

Zhang Ming was really numb this time.

"Great harvest! Great harvest! It's not in vain for me to work so hard and complete the prestige mission of the five rings!"

He prevented his smirking from being heard by Yiqing and others, so he quickly got into the ancestral hall to avoid being seen by others.

So after Lu Xueqing and the others came back, they kept hearing strange movements from the Patriarch Hall.

"Master Uncle, Master...isn't he stupid?"

Lu Xueqing and Yin Xue looked at each other and asked Qingquan.

Qingquan coughed with a straight face: "Xiu was speechless, he wasn't smart at all."

And Zhang Ming is still immersed in the interest of inventorying treasures and exercises. In addition to the above, there are also Qiankun Bow, Zhentian Arrow, Demon Mirror, Qiankun Bag, Covering the Sky Seal, etc., all of which are rare treasures.

"Steady, steady, even if I'm asked to participate in some kind of heaven-sacrificing ceremony this time, I'm sure I'll get there."

At this time, he felt a little inflated, and smiled confidently.

Maybe it was his rare broken mouth that was heard by unknown beings. Not long after, Dao Tong Qingfeng and Mingyue hurried into the Taoist temple.

"The lord,

Han Xingyuan from the Tianjian Academy is begging to see him outside the door! "

When Zhang Ming walked out of the ancestral hall, he saw them coming forward to report.

"Huh? Why is he here?"

Zhang Ming was a little surprised, Dongling County was in a state of waste, and had just been invaded by the Dongyi Kingdom, Han Xingyuan should be in the county at this time, why did he come here to find him.

"Qingfeng, invite him to the backyard. Mingyue, go and pour some tea."

He gave a simple order and waited in the yard.

Speaking of which, the two Dao names Qingfeng and Mingyue were chosen arbitrarily, after all, the character "Qing" is of the same generation as Qinghui and Qingquan.

The reason for this is because Qingfeng and Mingyue are just Xiaodao boys, and they have not been officially registered, nor have they been included in the gate wall of Lingshu temple.

If one day they formally enter the sect, they will have to give their dao names again.

Of course, the real reason is due to Zhang Ming's bad taste, after all, the name "Qingfengmingyue" was very famous the previous day.

"Well, if one day I change my name to Sanfeng, it will be even more interesting."

He secretly laughed.

This is the only existence in the world of martial arts that can cultivate immortals.

While he was thinking wildly, Han Xingyuan had already hurried into the backyard, followed by a beautiful female soldier.

"Daoist Master Qinghui, Daoist Master Qinghui, I haven't seen you for quite a while, I've seen Daoist Master before!"

Han Xingyuan smiled and approached.

Zhang Ming said with a smile: "Inspector Han, this is not the first time we have met. If you have anything to say, just say it, and don't make detours to the poor. By the way, this is..."

Han Xingyuan smiled with his yellow and white teeth, and suddenly said: "I almost forgot to introduce, this is the deputy leader of the Crimson Cavalry, named Fu Jing. General Jiang Ye is not here, and the Crimson Cavalry is mainly managed by General Fu."

It turned out to be Crimson Rider.

In fact, when she entered the backyard, Zhang Ming, Qing Quan and others had already recognized her attire.

After all, the crimson knight's armor was the only one in the Jin Dynasty.

Fu Jing didn't dare to hold her back, she cupped her hands and said, "Fu has seen the Master of Qing Hui Temple."

Zhang Ming nodded, and stretched out his hand to guide him: "You two, sit down and talk if you have anything to do. Here, this is my Maojian tea from Zhuoguang Mountain. It's the only one here, and you can't drink it anywhere else."

Han Xingyuan quickly thanked: "Thank you, Daoist."

He sat down at the side, but Fu Jing insisted on standing at the side.

Then Zhang Ming asked again: "I don't know if you two are here, what's the matter?"

Han Xingyuan glanced at Fu Jing and said, "Daoist Qing Hui, to be honest, we came here for His Majesty's will."

Zhang Ming couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly: "Oh?"

Fu Jing took out a volume of documents from the conversation and said, "Daoist Qing Hui, this is an imperial decree."

This time the crimson knight also came with an imperial edict, but he was very polite. There was no majestic procedure when reading the imperial edict, nor did he say that Zhang Ming would accept the edict.

It has always been like this in the world, only the strong have the confidence to speak and do things.

The status and treatment are also quite different.

Zhang Ming glanced at the imperial decree and had some premonitions in his heart.

"If you don't mind, just show it to Pindao."

Fu Jing saluted respectfully, and handed over the imperial decree with both hands: "Please look it up, Taoist priest."

Zhang Ming took a look and saw that the handwriting inside was different from last time.

This time the handwriting looks delicate and beautiful.

"Lingshu watched the Qing emblem, protected the Lianshan army, and blocked the 200,000 troops of the Dongyi Kingdom from the Qilian Mountains. I am very pleased. I am very pleased. I should be rewarded for my merits. However, the great Jin country is currently in crisis, and disasters are frequent. There is no material. It can be adjusted."

Her Majesty's words were also much softer.

Zhang Ming was amazed and continued to read.

"Just one month later, I will hold a grand ceremony to worship the heavens. At the same time, I will select the most powerful people in the world and hire them as national teachers. I have heard the name of the Taoist priest of Qing Hui for a long time, but I have never been able to meet him. It is a pity. Today, I specially invite Lingshu to watch Qing Hui Go to Beijing, pray for the blessings of the heavens, and be a candidate for the national teacher. This is my honor!"

The content of the imperial decree is concise and to the point, and it is no longer aloof and undeniable.

"Are you inviting me to Beijing?"

Zhang Ming sat in front of the stone table, a little thoughtful.

At this time, the Jin Dynasty can be described as internal and external troubles. Outside, there are the coveted countries of Dongyi, Xirong and Northern Wei. Inside, there are disputes among the three sects, and the chaos of Buddhism and Taoism.

And the Tianmo sect has been hiding in the dark, stirring up the wind and rain.

The current Kyoto is probably also a center of disputes in the world.

"No, Kyoto is not the core of the dispute yet, but this empress wants to make this place the core!"

Zhang Ming saw her intention at a glance.

If it was before, he still couldn't understand it, but now he is very clear about the situation of the whole Jin Dynasty and the empress' thoughts.

"General Fu, who else did Her Majesty the Empress invite to this ceremony?"

he asked looking up.

Fu Jing seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and said: "Master Qing Hui, this ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is the first time His Majesty prayed for blessings after he ascended the throne, so the momentum is huge. .”

"As big as the Xuankong Temple on the Daoxuan Mountain, the Taiyi Immortal Gate of the Tianyan Mountain, and the Yaowangzong of the Medicine King Valley, as small as the aristocratic families and academies in various counties, there are edicts passed down."

"However, there are only two places for each sect and family, otherwise there will be too many people gathered in the capital."

"But even so, it will be the grandest ceremony of the Great Jin Dynasty in a hundred years."

She is very familiar with the arrangements for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, and perhaps the crimson knight participated in the planning and implementation of the ceremony.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then asked: "Then the battle for the national teacher, is there any strong candidate?"

Fu Jing was slightly taken aback.

She didn't seem to know the content of the imperial decree. After thinking for a while, she said: "Although the Jin Dynasty is large, there are many strong people, no more than the three sects and some hidden strong people. But who came to the capital, Fu has not received any information yet." information."

Zhang Ming probably understood the situation, and it seemed that the three sects would also send strong men to compete for the position of national teacher.

This is understandable.

Although the three sects are tyrannical and hang above the Jin Dynasty, the position of national teacher is a position of less than one person and above ten thousand people in the dynasty. Once this position is firmly established, then the missionary, preaching and secular development of the three sects will be greatly affected. , will play a crucial role.

For example, once the Xuankong Temple becomes the state teacher, Buddhism will become the orthodox state religion of the dynasty, and Taoism will be severely suppressed at that time.

And even if the Taiyi Immortal Sect fights against it, it will be futile.

In terms of the strength of the two sects, they are comparable, but with the help of the state teacher of the Great Jin Dynasty, the situation is immediately different.

"Wu Mingxian, Wu Mingxian, I understand your intentions. You think that the two sects are not fighting fiercely enough, and you want them to cut the mess quickly and decide the winner immediately! But, you are not afraid to lift a stone and hit yourself feet?"

Reading at midnight

The more Zhang Ming thought about it, the more he sighed, this Empress is simply playing with fire.

The powerhouses of the three sects are not afraid of the existence of the Great Jin Dynasty. If one is not good, they may turn their spearheads and target the Dynasty.

"Unless, you want to lure them all over and catch them all in one go..."

But how is this possible.

Zhang Ming shook his head and gave up thinking about the Empress.

"General Fu, Pindao is devoted to chanting scriptures and practicing, and has no interest in secular disputes. I'm afraid this trip will disappoint His Majesty."

He handed back the imperial decree and rejected it bluntly.

No matter what Her Majesty the Empress was thinking, he didn't want to be involved in this vortex.

Once there, looking at the current situation from the perspective of Lingshu, it is impossible to face the Xuankong Temple, Taiyi Xianmen and other forces head-on.

Don't forget, there is also Wang Haoran, a contemporary sage of Confucianism, who is retreating in Kyoto.

This time, I am afraid that the world will change, and the sun and the moon will not shine!

Fu Jing's face sank slightly, and after receiving the imperial decree, she realized that His Majesty had invited Daoist Qing Hui to come to Beijing, and even listed him as one of the candidates for the National Teacher, which shows the importance of the other party in His Majesty's heart .

Han Xingyuan smoothed things over and said, "It's fine not to go, the water in this capital is very deep. Usually I don't want to go, if I don't have to go back to Beijing every three months to report on my duties, I would rather die of old age in Dongling County."

Fu Jing glared at him: "Inspector Han, this word cannot reach the ears of Master Zigan, the dean of Tianjianyuan."

Han Xingyuan snorted resentfully: "Oh, Taiyi Xianmen."

The Master Zigan, the dean of the Tianjianyuan, is from the Taiyi Immortal Sect, and his heart has never been for the emperor and the empress, but for the three sects.

"Daoist Qing Hui, Your Majesty returned the second volume of imperial edict before I set off."

After Fu Jing was rejected by Zhang Ming, she was not angry or anxious, but unhurriedly took out the second volume of documents in her arms.

"Your Majesty said that if you reject the first volume of imperial decree, then this second volume will be handed over to you for reading. Regardless of whether you accept it or not, reject it or not, this second volume is top secret. After taking it out, you must not read it by yourself, and it will be destroyed after use.”

As she spoke, she respectfully held the imperial decree and handed it over.

Zhang Ming couldn't help frowning, his eyes fell on the humble scroll.

"Her Majesty has many thoughts, and she rarely does things that are not sure. My refusal is probably already in her calculations."

He didn't want to accept the imperial decree in front of him.

Because the empress probably offered a price that she couldn't refuse.

"Interesting, Pindao wants to see, I'm an outsider, what tricks can she have to make me go to Kyoto willingly!"

Thinking of his own background, Zhang Ming couldn't help laughing, and took the imperial edict openly to have a look.

He couldn't believe that there was something in the queen's hand that could attract him, change his original intention, and step into this vortex.

"Hehe, Empress, I want you to know that you can't grasp a man's mind."

Then, the scroll slowly opened and came into view.

Zhang Ming couldn't help but change his expression.

He looked left and right, carefully looked at it three times, and finally sighed softly: "General Fu, in a month's time, Pindao will go to the capital on time."

Immediately, he rubbed his palms together.

The holy decree was turned into ashes in a ball of flames. No third person in the world knows what's inside.
