Train to Another World

Dashun's army was still mobilized, but what was different from the original plan was that this time it was led by Sun Shangshu himself. Sun Shangshu, who took off his purple robe and put on his armor again, could not tell that he had been away from the battlefield for a long time.

In particular, his eyes were red, and he looked like he wanted to choose someone to devour, which would make people mistakenly think that he was returning to the court after a long battle.

Along with the army, there were Taoist priests from the Taoist Academy and scholars from the Academy. However, they were no ordinary sergeants. They needed to use their legs to travel. These distinguished gentlemen were all arranged in carriages.

The carriage in front is even more exquisite. If you look carefully, you can see that the outside of the carriage is even covered with talismans using hair-thick gold threads.

In the carriage, Wang Jian was holding his legs with his hands, wrapped in a large cloak, leaning lifelessly against the wall of the carriage, in a daze. Inside the carriage, Director Wu was meditating.

After a long time, Abbot Wu exhaled a breath of turbidity and stopped the practice. Seeing Wang Jianzheng still looking like that, he also smiled awkwardly.

"Brother Dao, I didn't expect it to be like this."

Wang Jianzheng slowly turned his head and stared at him with dead fish eyes: "I stayed well in Qintian Prison, and I could sleep until I woke up naturally every day. What evil do you think you have done?"

Abbot Wu scratched his head: "Isn't this because my divination doesn't work? Fortunately, Brother Tao's stargazing skills are not affected. I can only rely on Brother Tao in this profession."

Wang Jianzheng turned his head and refused to pay attention to him. His thoughts went back to a few days ago...

That day, he left all the chores to Senior Brother Shen Guangzi as usual, happily took the fishing rod and went fishing outside the city. When the sun was about to set, he estimated the time, carried a few carps, and headed towards the Sun Mansion.

When they arrived in front of the Sun Mansion, they happened to meet Master Wu, and the two entered the Sun Mansion together.

After handing the fish to the concierge and being led into the side hall by the butler, he saw Sun Shangshu sitting behind the table. He looked distracted and had to be reminded by the butler before he realized that a guest had arrived.

When Sun Shangshu saw the two people coming hand in hand, he said to the steward: "Let's start the banquet."

After the butler bowed to leave, not long after, the servants filed in and laid out various dishes on the table, all of which were carefully prepared as vegetarian dishes. Abbot Wu is visiting Lingxiao Palace and is required to fast. Wang Jianzheng's Tianxing Temple does not prohibit meat and fish, but only beef, dog meat, mullet meat, and wild goose meat.

However, for Taoist sects, a vegetarian diet is helpful for meditation, so even in sects such as Tianxingguan, which does not avoid meat and fish, most disciples are vegetarians all year round.

Therefore, it is always right to invite Taoist priests to eat and have vegetarian meals in Dashun.

Wang Jianzheng sniffed: "The vegetarian food at Shangshu's house smells the same as the vegetarian food at Baiyun Temple outside the city. The chef of your house is really extraordinary in his craftsmanship."

Sun Shangshu forced a smile and said: "I have always liked to eat meat, and the cook at home is not good at fasting, so for this meal I invited the Taoist priest from Baiyun Temple to my home."

Abbot Wu nodded and smiled: "Master Shangshu is interested."

The two of them could clearly see that Sun Shangshu was worried, so after a few simple bites, before they had finished drinking for three rounds, they took the initiative to ask Sun Shangshu about his intentions today.

"Alas!" Sun Shangshu sighed and took out a letter from his arms. The letter had been opened, but the word "Yin Shu" could still be seen on the envelope. This was a secret letter in the army.

Sun Shangshu flicked his finger, and the secret message flew in front of the two of them. The two of them looked at each other, and Wang Jianzheng raised his hand: "I am afraid that this secret message from the army is..."

Sun Shangshu waved his hand: "I am the Shangshu of the Ministry of War. I showed this to you. It doesn't matter. Moreover, this letter was sent by my incompetent fourth son. What is said in the letter is not considered a secret. 2 Just take a look.”

Since Sun Shangshu said so, the two of them were not polite. They opened the letter and read it at a glance.

Looking at it, both of them frowned.

Today's meal was a vegetarian meal, and naturally the vegetarian wine was also light. Sun Shangshu drank a bottle of it as if he were drinking water. Seeing that the two of them had seen each other, he asked: "Both of you are Taoists, and you know the path of cultivation better than I do. May I ask these two Taoists, who is the Protector of the Country?"

"Born with Taoism."

"The True Immortal of Land."

Sun Shangshu continued: "Suddenly, an unheard-of person appeared, claiming to be from an unheard-of sect. He seems to be young, but his strength is much higher than that of the Protector of the Country. Is this reasonable?"

Abbot Wu looked ugly and said: "There are many branches of our Taoist sect, and their cultivation path is no more than the land of the wealthy couple. I have great people and a vast land and abundant resources. There are countless senior masters who have understood the true Dharma and established sects. There are also countless spiritual beings. Can help us practice.

However, there is always an end to everything, whether it is the inheritance of skills or the treasures of heaven and earth. Cultivating Taoism is not done behind closed doors, so there is no such thing as a sect that does not communicate with the outside world.

As for the treasures of heaven, materials and earth, even if he is as talented as the Protector of the Country, he consumes countless treasures of heaven, materials and earth every year. It can be said that even if Dashun’s national power is exhausted, it will be difficult to produce a second Protector of the Country. "

Sun Shangshu patted the empty wine bottle casually and said with empty eyes: "So, these 'outside the world masters' appeared from nowhere. What kind of Tao did they practice and what kind of elixir did they take?" ?

I, Dashun, cannot support the second true protector of the country, so how can those small countries besides me, Dashun, be so virtuous and capable? ! "

Sun Shangshu raised his red eyes and looked at the two Taoist masters: "Two Taoists, one is proficient in divination and the other is proficient in stargazing. Have you done calculations?"

Abbot Wu cupped his hands with a look of shame on his face: "I have little talent and little knowledge, so I can't figure out anything. But my Taoist brother is profound in Taoism, so I can see something."

Wang Jianzheng glared at Abbot Wu and admitted: "I climbed up to watch the stars last night, and I did see something different in the stars."

Sun Shangshu looked at Wang Jianzheng: "May I ask what is abnormal?"

Wang Jianzheng gritted his teeth and said honestly: "The auspicious stars are shining high, the sky is shining brightly, and the purple energy is like the Milky Way hanging upside down, pouring into the world. This is a good omen that has never appeared before. If we really want to explain this astrology, we can only say that it is heaven. When people come to this world, please help me to unify the world and be powerful in all directions."

"Haha~" Sun Shangshu laughed suddenly and asked: "May I ask where the heavenly being came to this world?"

"north."

Sun Shangshu nodded: "In a few days, the army will be dispatched and I will take command. Then I will help you two to accompany the army to the north. I will go with you to see the heavenly being who came to the world. I hope you will not refuse."

The two of them looked at Sun Shangshu's big blood-red eyes, as if he wanted to eat someone. They wanted to refuse but didn't know where to start. I can only give it up and accept it.

After all, apart from Sun Shangshu's reasons, whether it was a heavenly being who really came to the world, or the demon from outside the territory was so powerful that it could obscure the secrets of heaven and change the stars. They wanted to go and have a look, both emotionally and rationally.

After the two agreed, they didn't stay long, and after a few polite words, they were ready to leave.

Finally, Sun Shangshu asked the two of them: "I dare you to tell me if you can figure out my son..."

Both of them cupped their hands and said, "I don't know."

Sun Shangshu was in a bad mood, so the steward sent the two of them out of the door. After the two left, Sun Shangshu smashed the table with his palm, and the food and wine spilled all over the floor.

He looked up to the sky and roared: "It hurts me so much!"
