Celestial Immortal

Chapter 949 Reunion of old friends!three in one

After Chu Chen handed in the "Da Ri Tathagata Secret Biography" in exchange for the "Secret Edict", he sent Zhang Qing Ci to the Fengdu Difu immediately, requesting the recruitment of soldiers and horses.

From his point of view, the matter was a sure thing.

After all, it wasn't the first time he went to Fengdu Difu to recruit soldiers and horses. With the experience of last time, it was much easier to recruit soldiers and horses than the first time when he got on the line of Lord Guan's general Zhou Cang.

However, things backfired. It is reasonable to say that something went wrong in Fengdu Difu, which was the smoothest place.

"Can't recruit, why is that?"

Chu Chen couldn't help frowning slightly.

Dachang World has the Five Sacred Sacred Talismans and the City God's Mansions of various states. There are countless ghost soldiers and generals under his command. It is easy to recruit soldiers and horses below the seventh rank. As long as you have the "recruitment qualification", you can recruit as many soldiers and horses as you want.

However, it is difficult to recruit elite soldiers and horses above the sixth rank.

Not to mention one hundred thousand, it would be difficult to recruit ten thousand soldiers and horses. Moreover, he had to beg his grandpa to sue his grandma, and he owed countless favors.

Chu Chen's minimum requirement right now is the sixth-rank soldiers and horses. It is too time-consuming to train soldiers and horses below the seventh-rank.

In this way, Fengdu Difu is the best source of soldiers.

"Brother, I was wrong."

On the other side, Xiao Guizai saw his senior brother frowning tightly, looking worried, he felt aggrieved, and handed over the cloth storage bag in his hand, as if admitting his mistake and accepting punishment.

"Hehehe~"

Seeing the pitiful appearance of the little ghost boy, Chu Chen couldn't help laughing, and his mood improved a lot.

Although he said that the little devil was "crow's mouth" every time, he never complained.

After all, the cart can't be put before the horse, it's not that the little ghost opened his mouth that something bad happened, but that something bad happened, and the little ghost had a vague premonition before he spoke, which belonged to his "ear report fairy boy" innate magical power.

"Okay, senior brother won't punish you, keep the spirit incense."

The little ghost was flattered, it thought that the senior brother was going to take away his spiritual incense again, but upon hearing this, a contented smile appeared on its face:

"Senior brother treats me well, hehehe!"

Chu Chen smiled, ignored it, and murmured:

"I still have to go to the Netherland Mansion myself."

Chu Chen had nothing to do at the moment, so without delay, he pinched the magic formula and called out the magic weapon [Earth Letter Seal].

When I came to the Jinglu Dharma altar, I stepped on the steps and pinched the magic formula with my hands. After doing some exercises, the gate of the earth came out of thin air.

In a blink of an eye, Chu Chen disappeared into Qingchen Cave Mansion with the little ghost boy.

It was dark before his eyes, and then he opened his eyes, and he was in the darkness and silence.

It was not the first time for Chu Chen to go to the Underworld. He was familiar with the road, leaning on the gate of the underworld, and teleported directly to Fengdu Mountain.

He was planning to release his consciousness as usual, looking for patrolling soldiers in Fengdu to inform him of the Marshal's Mansion. At this moment, he swept his consciousness and keenly noticed a ray of light in the sky coming towards him.

"Come to find me."

Chu Chen faintly noticed that the other party's soul locked him and came straight to him.

Immediately, he was curious, and his spiritual sense was released, trying to discern the opponent's origin.

"Brother, the breath is a bit familiar."

Chu Chen smiled, more than a little familiar.

While speaking, a golden light fell to the ground and turned into a human form.

The person who came was the sixth dog brother.

A few years ago, Chu Chen used the [Earth Letter Seal] to bring Lao Liu into the underworld, and through the way of Emperor Guan, he helped Lao Liu find his former master. "Magic" also broke out.

Seeing the love and righteousness of the loyal dog Lao Liu, Guan Di cherishes his talents, and keeps him by his side to train him to help him survive the evil calamity.

I haven't seen him for many years, and the sixth child seems to be a different person. The ignorance and wildness of the "beast" background in the past have disappeared without a trace.

The most important thing is that today's Lao Liu is no longer a fifth-grade Taoist cultivation base, but has leapt into the realm of great supernatural powers, and, at first glance, it has been a long time since he broke through. A sacred, natural breath.

Seeing this scene, Chu Chen was extremely pleased, and the sixth child finally broke through the shackles of his mind and survived the catastrophe.

"Congratulations, sixth! Congratulations!"

The sixth child pursed his lips, and his face was full of emotion, but instead of appealing to his mouth, he fell on Chu Chen:
"Brother Chu, congratulations. On the day of your wedding, you broke through to the third rank. I was in the most critical moment of retreat. I only found out about your letter from Feifu afterwards. I missed it. Please forgive me!"

"It doesn't matter, it's fine if you think about it."

Chu Chen smiled. On the day of his wedding two years ago, Emperor Guan sent people to congratulate him. During this period, he mentioned that the sixth child was in retreat.

The two hadn't seen each other for many years, and the old friends reunited. The two were very excited and chatted happily.

After some conversation, Chu Chen found out.

Lao Liu broke through the realm of great supernatural powers two years ago, perhaps he has "completely realized".

Afterwards, the sixth child was called into Marshal Guan's mansion and became a fourth-rank partial general of the Fengdu Army—a well-organized, regular Fengdu Mingshen.

"What! Sixth, you have become a god!"

The little ghost boy was so surprised, he opened his mouth and was a little speechless.

The sixth child smiled: "That's right, the Marshal thinks highly of it."

Chu Chen was stunned for a moment, and was also greatly surprised, calling "good guy" in his heart.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Lao Liu's fortune has "flyed into the sky".

Ordinary practitioners, in addition to practicing the Dharma door, have to accumulate meritorious deeds everywhere, cultivate meritorious deeds extensively, smash their heads with other fellow practitioners, and twist their heads into twists, so as to have a chance to compete for the "place of the gods" and fly into the earth. God, become the god of heaven and earth.

But right now, Lao Liu has casually conferred a god in the underworld, and has become a well-organized underworld god in the Fengdu underworld.

Such an opportunity, how can one not be envious.

If it spreads to the outside world, many people will be envious and jealous, and hate it to the point of itch.

Of course, while Chu Chen was surprised, he was soon relieved.

In fact, he had already guessed the ending.

Once the sixth child can jump out of the shackles of "foolish loyalty and small righteousness" and comprehend the real "way of loyalty and righteousness", then he has a destiny with Emperor Guan.

Even if Emperor Guan did not accept him as a disciple, he would be brought under the tent of Emperor Guan and cultivated.

As a "Guan Emperor's direct disciple", it is not a big problem to become a god in the underworld. The only thing that surprised him was that the sixth son became a god earlier than he expected.

Originally, Chu Chen planned to take Lao Liu back to the world of Dachang to practice kung fu after breaking through the magic tribulation and breaking through the realm of great supernatural powers.

Right now, he couldn't speak.

He is well prepared, immortal, and at ease, so there is no reason for him to follow him back to Dachang.

While everyone was talking, their feet leaped into the clouds and galloped, and they arrived at Guan Shuai Divine Mansion in a short time.

The sixth child was familiar with the road, and brought Chu Chen to a side hall to wait.

After about a stick of incense.

A burst of black qi rolled over, and Guan Shengdijun's avatar "Marshal Feng Dulang Lingguan" appeared on the Marshal's throne, and smiled loudly:
"Little friend Chu, long time no see, please stay safe!"

Chu Chen cupped his hands and saluted: "I have seen the emperor!"

Marshal Feng Dulang Lingguan nodded slightly, and then his eyes fell on Chu Chen, with a slight look of surprise on his face:

"When did you switch to Buddhism?"

Chu Chen was taken aback, and immediately understood what the emperor meant, and explained:
"In recent days, I do have a relationship with Buddhism, but I have never switched to Buddhism."

Guan Shuai is interested:

"Can you show me, your fate seems to be not simple."

Chu Chen still trusted Master Guan, and immediately sank into the ocean of sex.

In an instant, Xinghai True Spirit [Dari Tathagata Compassionate Wisdom] radiated golden light and soared into the sky, causing Chu Chen to radiate endless Buddha light all over his body, with great mercy and compassion, just like the Buddha came to the world.

"True Inheritance of the Tathagata's Secret!"

Guan Shuai saw the origin of Yuanfa at a glance, and was rather surprised:
"Little friend Chu, why don't you really switch to Buddhism. With the enlightenment of the Buddha, there is hope for you to become a Buddha in the future."

Chu Chen couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words: "The disciple is a disciple of the Sanqing, how can he switch to the sect casually."

"Ben Shuai is not joking."

Guan Shuai changed his joke just now, looked serious, and said: "If your qualifications are mediocre, this commander will not say anything, but you have great potential, celestial roots and wisdom, and you have the top inheritance of Buddhism and Taoism. Sooner or later, you will face On the day of the decision, if you don't think about the way, it will be a troublesome thing in the future."

Chu Chen was taken aback for a moment, and understood what Emperor Guan meant.

In other words, Emperor Guan is very optimistic about his enlightenment, and once he becomes enlightened in the future, he will face the problem of "standing in line".

Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism are both righteous ways, and the core of their teachings are all good, but the paths are different.

The paths are different, which gives rise to factions.

Among them, there is no distinction between right and wrong, but a very simple and simple truth. If you agree with one party's line, it will be easier to get the reuse of the other party, and the future will be bright.

Should I turn to Taoism completely, or take refuge in Buddhism?
In Chu Chen's situation, deep down in his heart, he is biased towards the Taoist school. After all, he has the mysterious opportunity of the Heart Temple, and he has many Taoist inheritances in him. There are a large group of Taoist immortals and true gods in his body. If you really want to choose , that must be a mindless fall into the Taoist sect.

But, he didn't speak in a hurry.

There is no other reason. The Emperor Guan in front of him is on the three boats of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and he has an extremely respected status among the three schools.

Guan Di is the real expert in dealing with this kind of matter.

So, he immediately bowed his hands and asked for advice:

"I also ask the emperor to point out the maze for me and guide me to a clear path."

"Hahaha~"

Guan Shuai was quite satisfied and smiled:
"This commander practices the way of loyalty and righteousness. The three families belong to one family. There is no party or faction, no left or right, no front and no future, and a self-contained faction."

Having said that, Guan Shuai didn't continue talking.

As a human being in two lifetimes, Chu Chen couldn't understand, and immediately understood the meaning behind Guan Di's words.

On the one hand, to guide him on how to stick to his nature and balance the teachings of various schools, on the other hand, there is a faint intention of soliciting.

Emperor Guan straddled the three religions, and his status was respected. He set up a banner and joined Emperor Guan's camp. He didn't need to think about choosing a side.

Guandi is the big boss of the Three Realms that he really met, and he is his nobleman. To a certain extent, he is three points closer than the patriarchs at the source of the Dharma lineage. He didn't even think about it, and immediately bowed his hands.

"Thank you, Emperor, for taking care of me!"

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Guan Shuai nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Chu Chen with more kind eyes, as if looking at his own people:

"I heard that you plan to recruit soldiers and horses again?"

Chu Chen was overjoyed when he saw that Emperor Guan brought up the matter on his own initiative. Sure enough, the benefits came after taking refuge in the boss.

"Exactly, it's just that General Zhou said that this matter is difficult to handle."

"This matter is indeed difficult to handle."

Chu Chen's heart sank, and there was something bad about him.

Even Emperor Guan said it was difficult to handle, that matter is really difficult to handle.

"Dijun, I don't know what happened, last time I recruited soldiers and horses."

Marshal Feng Dulang Lingguan shook his head and said with emotion:

"This matter has a lot to do with you. The last time the plague ghost Guo Liang escaped into the Dachang world, he brazenly launched a plague and caused a catastrophe. Now he has not been caught, and the heavens are furious. Feng has tightened his grip on the Dachang world. The transmission channel has strengthened the supervision, and the Heavenly Court and the Underworld are prohibited from interfering in Dachang's human affairs. I, the Marshal's Mansion, can help you recruit soldiers, but I can't issue you a customs clearance document."

"This"

Chu Chen was taken aback for a moment, and when he suddenly realized, he couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Last time, the God of Plague Guo Liang was able to escape from the Underworld to the Dachang World. The gatekeeper of the ghost gate was corrupt and accepted bribes on the one hand, but in essence it was caused by the lax supervision of the transmission channel of the Dachang World by the Fengdu Difu.

Right now, the Heavenly Court and the Underworld government tightened the passage and strengthened supervision, which is what it should be.

However, this was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Chu Chen, disrupting all his plans.

Do you want to go back to Dachang World to recruit seventh-rank soldiers and horses, and slowly train them.
Chu Chen shook his head and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Start training from the seventh rank, and when he cultivates into the fifth rank heavenly soldier, the fourth rank heavenly soldier, the cucumber dishes are cold, and the sixth rank soldier source is his lowest bottom line.

Just when Chu Chen was worried, Lao Liu who had been silent on the side suddenly said:
"Brother Chu, you have to tie the bell to untie it. Our Guan Shuai Mansion can't help you, but Zhao Caishen's Autumn Plague Mansion can issue you a clearance document."

"Oh~"

Chu Chen was overjoyed when he heard the words, and soon understood what was going on.

The God of Plague Mansion has the priesthood of dealing with plagues, and even the Dachang World of "Jedi Tiantong" has the right to pass. In addition, Guo Liang, the God of Plague, was born in the God of Autumn Plague Mansion, and his buttocks have not been wiped clean. Surprised.

With this in mind, Chu Chen raised his head and looked at Marshal Feng Dulang Lingguan with anticipation in his heart.

Just now, he didn't understand for a while, but suddenly he came to his senses. Guan Di took the initiative to bring up this matter, so there was a reason for it.

"Please advise the emperor!"

Guan Di smiled, quite satisfied with what Chu Chen said:
"The plague ghost Guo Liang has not been arrested and brought to justice for a long time, and it may cause a catastrophe at any time. Brother Gongming is quite depressed these days, and he has trouble sleeping and eating. It’s not a problem for him to send you these one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers for nothing.”

When Chu Chen heard this, his mind moved slightly.

At that time, he only had the fourth-rank Taoism cultivation, and he had no way to face the plague god Guo Liang. qualified.

just
Chu Chen smiled wryly: "Emperor, the God of Plague Guo Liang is not easy to capture. Countless powerful people in the Dachang world have searched for him but there is no clue. I will recruit soldiers after I catch him. At that time, I may not have the need to recruit soldiers."

He didn't finish his sentence, but he was a little depressed inside.

If Guo Liang, the god of plague, cannot be caught for a long time, the day lily will be cold.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud sound transmission from the spiritual consciousness in the hall, mixed with the sound of a tiger roaring faintly.

"Little friend Chu, help me, this god will never treat you badly."
