Strange Stories

Chapter 547 Visit to Mr. Luo

"Why is the eldest brother here too?"

"You all come, why can't I come?"

"The Purple Emperor is too obsessed, and he is pressing us step by step. He has already put pressure on us. I refuted the senior's words. The golden light from Lingshi Mountain in the north was seen by the local monsters. It must be that the God of Fuchi has come out of the mountain. If we cannot defeat the God of Fuchi today, no immortal will stay in Fuqiu Peak of Yishan Mountain, and Jiutian will definitely take away the Great Yin-Yang Method. But if the eldest brother stays and does not get involved in this matter, at least there is an immortal, who can leave soil for our Fuqiu Temple to become immortals."

"The Purple Emperor has gone mad. Not only is he catching and killing monsters all over the world, he is also trying to get rid of the God of Yishan Mountain, a mountain spirit that has never left the mountain and has never done any evil! We at Fuqiu Temple have been taken care of by the God of Mountain. How can we just sit back and watch?" said the eldest brother. "If the God of Mountain is gone, most of Yishan Mountain will probably be destroyed. It's hard to say whether Fuqiu Peak will still exist, let alone Fuqiu Temple!"

"Ha! I think you are confused, Junior Brother!"

At this time, a middle-aged Taoist priest in a single garment, with his chest and abdomen exposed, came over:

"This old farmer has pure five energies and a strong character. He has both supreme talent and the spiritual energy of Mount Yi. It would be fine if he didn't have the Great Yin-Yang Method, but since he has it, even if he did nothing but sit in a corner of Mount Yi for a few decades, he would definitely be able to achieve enlightenment. Have you ever thought about why he still has to spend so much effort looking for materials to refine the golden elixir to pursue progress? Isn't it just for today!"

The eldest brother smiled and remained honest.

Lin Jue remained silent.

"brush!"

Lin Jue opened his eyes.

At this time, he was sitting cross-legged on a cushion in the Fengshan Pavilion, his body slightly tilted, leaning on the chair behind him in a very comfortable posture. He accidentally fell asleep due to exhaustion from practicing and attaining enlightenment.

It turned out to be just a dream.

It is a dream, an illusion, but also the magical power and deduction of Immortal Yuanqiu.

This scenario is unlikely to actually happen, and if it does happen it is unlikely to be exactly the same. But if it really happened, this is what Third Brother would say.

Every word in it is true.

The eldest senior brother's five energies are pure, his mind is strong, he has both outstanding talent and the spiritual energy of Mount Yi, plus the Great Yin-Yang Method, he is probably the one among his fellow disciples who has the best chance of becoming a true god, except for Lin Jue.

He needn't have been anxious.

But now, and before he went to Feilai Mountain and entered Yuanqiu Fairyland, he was indeed looking for materials for the golden elixir.

"Ugh……"

Lin Jue stood up, and a fox on the chair behind him raised its head and looked at him.

Lin Jue patted his Taoist robe, shook his head, and walked out. The fox licked its fur, immediately jumped off the chair, and chased after him in small steps.

“The sun is shining brightly today!”

The fox said as he followed at his feet.

“This is called springtime.”

“It’s a beautiful spring day!”

"Take a Yuanqiu fruit and let's go visit Lord Luo."

"it is good!"

This time the little thing had no objection at all, and without saying that there were not many Yuanqiu fruits left, it immediately ran to the storage room.

Not long after, the man and the fox rode on the thundercloud and headed straight for the capital.

It only takes a moment to get from Fengshan to the capital.

After many years of wasted time and busy days and nights with worries, even though Mr. Luo practiced martial arts and became an immortal, he looked old and frosted, but he looked much younger than ordinary people of his age.

The emperor was wearing casual clothes, lying casually on the couch, holding a memorial in one hand and frowning.

There was a little noise outside.

"It's going to rain! My queen, please come back soon!"

"Why is it raining? The sun was shining just now."

"Your Majesty, you don't know that in this late spring and early summer, the weather is always unpredictable with thunderstorms. Look, there's a dark cloud overhead!"

"Keep your voice down~Don't disturb His Majesty~"

Although it was a bit noisy and disturbed the emperor's thoughts, it also temporarily freed him from his worries. He shifted his gaze and turned to look out the window, only to see that the sun was shining brightly through the paper window, and even cast faint spots on the ground through the paper window. It didn't look like it was going to rain at all.

wrong!

As I was thinking about it, I heard a voice beside my ear:
"Mr. Luo, excuse me for disturbing you."

In a flash, the emperor dropped the memorial, stood up, and looked around the empty room:

"Where is the Taoist priest? Why don't you show up?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a breeze blew.

A man and a fox appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Luo."

Lin Jue held up a bowl-sized Yuanqiu fruit and said, "This was given to me by the Immortal Yuanqiu in the Yuanqiu Fairyland. I also brought one for Lord Luo."

"Thank you!"

Luo Gong took the immortal fruit and then greeted him:
"long time no see!"

"It's been a long time since I last saw you. I went to Huizhou and waited for two years. I also stayed in Yuanqiu Fairyland for nearly a day. I didn't expect that one day in Yuanqiu Fairyland is one year outside." "Is there really such a strange thing?" Luo Gong was also surprised. "The immortals in the mountains really don't know the time of year."

"Yes."

"Master, please take a seat."

"Um……"

Lin Jue sat down, turned his head and looked around: "I am here to chat with my old friends, so the generals don't need to protect me, right?"

Mr. Luo had a calm expression and also turned around to look around.

There was a faint fairy light floating on the roof, but no god showed up. Instead, a voice was heard: "Since a real person is here, I don't think any demons or ghosts will dare to invade the palace. We will withdraw."

This is the deity who guards the imperial palace, similar to the door gods and palace guards, responsible for protecting the imperial palace from being invaded by evil spirits.

Now that the Purple Emperor has taken the throne, even the city gods of the capital have been completely replaced, replaced with people who do practical work, and a large number of patrols and military officers have been added day and night. Naturally, the gods in the palace are more numerous and more diligent than in the previous dynasty. Most of these gods were originally on duty in various places in the palace, and only gathered when they saw Lin Jue coming.

This should be a good thing for most emperors.

But Luo Gong is quite special.

He was the founding emperor, dominating the world, and Haomai Chongyun was unwilling to be bound by this, nor did he need to be bound by this. He was also a martial artist, not afraid of demons and ghosts. Even if there were demons and ghosts, he would prefer to let his generals come to guard. Not to mention that the gods of this dynasty were too overbearing and repeatedly interfered with the human world.

Therefore, when Lin Jue turned around, Luo Gong looked unhappy.

Lin Jue just opened his mouth and said: "There are many military officers and spirits on duty in Lord Luo's palace..."

"Hmph! How many monsters in the world dare to come to me? Why do I need them to guard me?" Lord Luo was obviously dissatisfied.

"Has the oracle in the sky been working hard recently?"

"More than diligent! Not only has it never been seen before, it is simply the most diligent one ever!"

"Will Lord Luo comply?"

"Need I say this? Taoist priest, don't you understand me?" Luo Gong said helplessly, "But sometimes, they do have a point. There are even more times when it should be me and the court that make the decision, but they make it first, and send down the oracle, either from Zixiao Palace or the Ministry of Rites. Ha, to be honest with you, Taoist priest, I am not a person who monopolizes power, but I am still quite troubled."

"Human nature."

Lin Jue nodded and asked, "How is Zixiao Palace?"

"What else can we do? He relies on his power to exorcise demons and does whatever he wants. Sometimes he even ignores the orders of the imperial court, as if the gods are greater than the emperor." Lord Luo was very angry. "Fortunately, there is Nan Tianshi."

"The Southern Heavenly Master Luo Gong used it well."

"Yes! Thanks to him!"

"If Lord Luo wants to check and balance the Purple Emperor, live a more comfortable life, and even let his descendants in the future be more comfortable, in my opinion, he still has to rely on the Southern Heavenly Master."

"Master, what you mean is..."

Mr. Luo obviously realized that Lin Jue came this time just to talk to him about this.

Lin Jue did not mention his "love at first sight" in Yuanqiu Fairyland. People like Luo Gong would not be easily moved and convinced by it, and given his relationship with Luo Gong, he did not need any convincing.

"Don't gods come from humans? The emperor is the common ruler of the world and can be deified himself. And with the reputation and virtue accumulated by Nan Tianshi, if you don't deify him a hundred years later, the people will spontaneously respect him as the emperor of gods. If you deify him as a god or an emperor, no one will dare to say anything. At the same time, with Nan Tianshi's personality, if he really becomes a great god and gets the help of Luo Gong in the process, he can't stand gods behaving recklessly and exceeding their authority, so he will definitely help Luo Gong."

"Be a God and an Emperor..."

Mr. Luo was very perceptive and understood it quickly.

"Master, tell me in detail."

"Mr. Luo only needs to know that the more fame and prestige Nan Tianshi had accumulated a hundred years ago, the more helpful it would be for him to become a god. In the process, Nan Tianshi must not be stained with filth." Lin Jue said bluntly according to the plan made by his sixth senior brother, "Nan Tianshi could check and balance the Taoist priests of Zixiao Palace for Mr. Luo when he was alive, and he could restrict the Purple Emperor and the gods for Mr. Luo after he is dead. However, the Purple Emperor seems harsh but is actually overbearing. Nan Tianshi will have ups and downs in his life and after he is dead. Only Mr. Luo, as an emperor, can help him."

A founding emperor who dominates the world, and a saintly heavenly master with impeccable character, the combination of the two is impeccable.

It's just obvious that it will take many years.

Mr. Luo nodded repeatedly, as if he was thinking about something.

In fact, he probably could have thought of this.

However, if no one reminds him, things will not be so clear and certain, and he will just let things take their natural course - wait for Master Nan Tian to accumulate fame and reputation on his own, and then die naturally, and then he will be naturally canonized as a god.

The two chatted here for a long time.

The palace maids and eunuchs who were delivering food were refused entry, the door of the imperial study was never opened, the thunderclouds in the sky never left, but the rain did not fall for a long time.

There are rumors outside that the cloud under Master Lin's feet is a thundercloud that drives away evil spirits, punishes evil and encourages good. Every time Master Lin comes, there is a thundercloud, and Your Majesty will close the door and wait for the immortal. This time, it should be that Master Lin has come down from the sky to visit Your Majesty again.

It was getting dark outside.

The two also talked about the Purple Emperor and the gods, then the past and recent times. Business turned into a chat between friends, and the conversation ended.

"Is the Taoist priest going to leave again?" Lord Luo suddenly sighed, "I, I haven't been out of the capital for a long time. I have a lot of worries. If the Taoist priest is not busy, can you take me out for a walk?"

"Haha, why not?"

Lin Jue smiled slightly and waved his sleeves, and the two of them turned into a wisp of breeze and walked out of the palace.

The fox was stunned for a moment before following.

No one knew that the emperor was no longer in the palace, but was following an old friend from many years ago to seek a brief moment of freedom and happiness amidst the busyness and worries.
