Chapter 144 This emperor is really annoying, just shoot him in the head
"Master, isn't it a bit hasty to go to the palace?"
Han Fei followed beside him and asked tentatively, "Master Xuan Dian went on a killing spree when he came to the imperial city. The whole city was filled with the smell of blood, which gathered and persisted, and was extremely terrifying."
Instead of being afraid, the people were filled with excitement and shouted for the arrival of the blue sky.
"Careless?" Lin Fan smiled and asked, "Do you think I still need to beg for an audience respectfully?"
"No, that's not what I meant. Why don't you go meet Master Jiang first?" Han Fei felt that this was a big deal. The Taoist priest was decisive in killing. Han Xiangui, who seemed to be a great figure, was like an ant in the eyes of the Taoist priest, and he was easily besieged and killed by the people.
What is status or not? In the eyes of the Taoist priest, what is that? Therefore, the emperor's status does not make Taoist priest Xuan Dian look at him differently.
In fact, based on his understanding of the emperor, he might...may not be able to survive in the Taoist priest's hands.
"You respect Lord Jiang very much, right?" Lin Fan's inexplicable question left Han Fei stunned.
"Master Jiang has been very kind to me. He is a rare good official in the world. I respect him like a father." Han Fei said.
Lin Fan said, "Since you respect Lord Jiang like a father, why do you always want him to work hard? Lord Jiang is old, and others would have enjoyed their old age. If you really love Lord Jiang, why do you want to make him tired?"
After saying that, he gently patted Han Fei's shoulder and said, "Think about it carefully and think about whether what I said makes sense. I have worked so hard to slay demons and monsters to this point. Do you know how much I have paid and how many people have helped me silently?"
"Is the emperor in the palace worthy of the love of the people of the world?"
"What was he doing when the people were being persecuted by the Five Hopes and the Yellow Sky Sect?"
Facing the Taoist priest's questioning, Han Fei lowered his head and muttered to himself, "It should be a life of debauchery and wine, and debauchery."
"What did you say?" Lin Fan asked in a daze.
"Ah? Did I say anything?" Han Fei looked confused and didn't admit anything he had just said.
"Forget it, let's go to the palace." Lin Fan left Han's house and walked out of the gate. He could still hear the angry roars of the people inside. As for Han Xiangui's screams, how could they cover up the anger of the people.
Han Fei followed the Taoist priest, his heart pounding and he felt an indescribable sense of nervousness, but for some reason, he actually felt a hint of anticipation, as if he had long been dissatisfied with the man in the palace, and now that the Taoist priest had stepped forward, it was just what he wanted.
The road leading to the palace was long and wide, and no common people dared to set up stalls, make noise, or even pass by.
The tall and majestic palace walls made people feel fearful. Several people walked towards the palace gate, where several palace guards with knives on their waists were staring at the Taoist Master Xuan Dian who was approaching.
There were all kinds of strange looks in the eyes of those guards. They did not draw their swords to scold the Taoist priest, but lowered their heads and stepped aside to make way.
"Why aren't you stopping me?" Lin Fan stopped and asked.
The leading guard said, "We know the Taoist's name and we dare not stop him."
Lin Fan looked at the guards and said softly, "Be a good person and don't learn from those monsters. The reason I didn't move you is not because you didn't move me, but because you saved yourselves."
After saying that, he walked towards the palace.
As the Taoist priest walked away, the guards wiped the sweat from their foreheads. They hadn't realized when they were already sweating profusely, and their clothes were soaked.
The remnant dragon of national destiny that was shrouding the imperial palace was hovering, looking at Xuan Dian with evasive eyes. From deep within the imperial palace, pink turbid air was continuously merging into the national destiny. Instead of making the remnant dragon stronger, it gradually weakened.
"What do you think about me coming to the palace?" Lin Fan asked, raising his head slightly.
Han Fei was extremely confused. He didn't know who the leader was talking to, and there was no one around except them.
"Master, who are you talking to?" Han Fei asked.
Lin Fan said: "National destiny dragon energy."
"Dragon Qi?" Han Fei knew that dragon qi existed, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. The reason why Master Jiang could avoid being harmed by demons was that he was protected by the dragon qi of national destiny. The few loyal ministers in the court knew how to protect the dragon qi of national destiny, even if it was illusory, and not let it be harmed.
"This imperial court is extremely corrupt and dilapidated. The current national luck is just like that. If it were a powerful country, even with my current level of cultivation, I would not be able to compete with it. All of this is my own fault."
"Rather than lingering on, it is better to help my Blue Sky Rat to awaken its spiritual wisdom."
"Come here, I'm a poor Taoist."
Lin Fan used the technique of swallowing clouds and spitting out mist, his five fingers formed into claws and absorbing the void. The dragon energy hovering in the sky was pulled away without any resistance, and rushed towards him.
He opened his mouth and sucked the dragon energy into his body, not because he wanted to absorb it, but to filter out the turbid air hidden in the national dragon energy for the Blue Sky Rat, and by the way, nourish it with Taoist righteous energy to ensure that the Blue Sky Rat can absorb it more perfectly.
As the remaining dragon energy of national destiny was absorbed, the imperial city shook and a mournful dragon roar sounded.
Lin Fan exhaled the dragon energy into his palm and poured it into the body of the Blue Sky Rat. Nourished by the dragon energy, the Blue Sky Rat trembled all over and fell into a deep sleep, lying obediently on his shoulder.
He handed the Blue Sky Rat to Fox Daji, "He is absorbing the dragon energy, just let him get some sleep."
Fox Daji took the Blue Sky Rat and touched its head. They knew the price that Blue Sky Rat had paid for the Taoist priest, so they loved him and naturally took care of him like a younger brother.
Han Fei opened his mouth slightly on the side. Just now, he could feel the disappearance of the dragon energy of the nation's destiny. The wailing sound of the dragon energy seemed to be filled with unwillingness and sorrow.
The palace that once seemed majestic in his eyes now seemed a little ordinary.
Lin Fan walked towards the palace. Many guards appeared in the palace. It was a serious crime for strangers to break into the palace. Just when they were about to take action.
Han Fei stood up and shouted angrily: "Stop, this is Taoist Xuan Dian. Han Xiangui has just been executed. How long do you want to help the tyrant?"
Many of the guards in the palace were Han Xiangui's men.
Han Fei was not an unknown person either. Many guards at the scene knew him. When they heard that Han Xiangui had been executed, they were shaken. Some of them laid down their weapons, while others still held on to their weapons and refused to stop.
Just as Han Fei was about to speak, a bloody red light flashed, and with a bang, a guard was blown to pieces on the spot, which made Han Fei terrified.
"Master..."
Lin Fan raised his hand, interrupting what he was about to say, "Don't talk, my eyes never let go of demons, if you ask them not to do it, I will have to watch it carefully again, don't worry, I never kill innocent people."
After he finished speaking, Lin Fan looked at the frightened guards and nodded with a smile. Under the gaze of the Eye of Merit, the true appearance of everyone appeared in his eyes.
Bang! Bang! Bloody red light burst out, and the majestic and magnificent palace was splattered with blood.
The guards were frightened silly and stood trembling on the spot. Their legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead and they didn't even have the strength to lift them.
Han Fei watched helplessly, and the bloody scenes dyed his eyes red.
Too domineering and too decisive.
This is Taoist Priest Xuan Dian.
I heard that when in Qingzhou, the Taoist priest killed his way here. I really don't know what the scene was like in Qingzhou at that time. I'm afraid it was a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses, like the corpse wearing a basin and looking up at the sky as big as a mountain.
After a moment, only a few of the guards were left standing.
Wow! Having experienced the bloody storm, they couldn't help vomiting and even gushing out bile when they saw the tragic scene before them.
Too cruel and bloody.
Lin Fan walked past them and said lightly, "In such a high-pressure environment, it is not easy for you to maintain your sense of good and evil. I will not kill you, and I cannot kill you. Take care of yourself. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me."
When some people are forced into desperate situations, they can get out of the abyss if someone lends them a hand.
But often there isn't.
And he, Xuan Dian, is willing to be the one who reaches out to the abyss.
Xuanzheng Hall is where the emperor holds court and summons his ministers. It is also the place where the throne that people all over the world yearn for is located.
It is indeed majestic and magnificent, towering into the clouds, with flying eaves and pointed corners, and glazed tiles shining golden light in the sun.
Walk into the spacious hall.
The floor of the hall is paved with mirror-smooth bluestone slabs, covered with red carpets, extending all the way to the depths of the hall. The hall is magnificent with carved beams and painted buildings, and the golden dragons on the pillars are lifelike, as if they will take off at any time.
The high throne is located at the end of the hall and is extremely luxurious.
"Where is the emperor? Bring the emperor here." Lin Fan said.
"Yes, Taoist priest."
Han Fei left.
Lin Fan walked along the red carpet, step by step, up to the higher place, climbed up the dragon steps, and walked to the top.
He walked in front of the dragon throne and sat down without hesitation, feeling the sensation brought by the dragon throne and looking down. He really had the feeling of standing on top of a mountain, overlooking all the other mountains.
It feels like owning the whole country.
Fox Daji and cat Miaomiao stood on the left and right of the Taoist priest, with Miaomiao pinching his shoulders.
"Haha, it really is the seat that everyone in the world wants to sit on. This feeling is really sour and refreshing. I never thought that I could also sit on this dragon throne." Lin Fan said with a smile.
At this moment, a scolding voice was heard.
"How dare you! This is the dragon throne. How dare you sit on it?" A man with sunken eye sockets and dark circles under his eyes shouted angrily. Han Fei on the side wanted to stop him but it was too late.
He really didn't expect that after such a big thing happened, the emperor was still surrounded by women. If he hadn't forcibly captured the emperor, he would never be willing to get out of bed. He even wanted to chop off his head, thinking that he had offended the emperor.
Lin Fan looked at the current emperor and said with a smile: "You said this is your throne, then shout it out and see if he responds."
The emperor in front of him knew what was going on without using the Eye of Merit.
“You, you…” The emperor’s chest heaved with anger. He turned around and said, “My dear Han, take down this traitor for me, and I will make you…”
"Your Majesty, this is Taoist Priest Xuan Dian. You must not be rude. Now the Wuwang Sect and the Huangtian Sect have been destroyed by the Taoist priest. Even Han Xiangui died at the hands of the people. Don't talk nonsense." Han Fei reminded.
To many people who have never seen His Majesty, He must be a face as handsome as a god and as majestic as a dragon. But if one sees Him with their own eyes, they will probably be extremely disappointed. How is His Majesty different from a whore who frequents brothels? He may even be worse.
The emperor was shocked when he heard this, but then his eyes turned and his face was overjoyed. "So you are a patriotic person. I have been sidelined by the Five Hopes and the Huangtian Sect. I have the ability to govern the country but I am unable to use it. Now, I am grateful to the Taoist priest for helping me to eliminate those who are harming the country and the people. I will appoint the Taoist priest as the national teacher and a king of a different surname."
Han Fei on the side was speechless. How weird was this? Was this the focus now?
Is it really true that you can't see even a little bit of reality?
"Hahaha." Lin Fan laughed softly, "You are such a weird guy. You speak in a very clichéd way. In my eyes, you are worse than trash. Yet you claim to be capable of governing a country. You are not suitable for this country."
"How dare you! I am the one chosen by heaven, and you dare to say such outrageous words! Someone, someone, come here." The emperor Hong Wen, who was so angry at Xuan Dian, shouted loudly.
"Stop shouting." Lin Fan said unhappily.
"How dare you." The emperor looked at Han Fei, "Lord Han, look at this traitor. Why are you still standing there? Take him down quickly."
Han Fei complained wildly in his heart.
What the hell.
If you really make the Taoist priest angry, not to mention calling you a useless emperor, I might even be chopped to pieces.
"Your Majesty, don't act like a child and face the reality. You have no idea whether you have the ability to govern the country. If it weren't for Master Jiang holding you back, you would have died long ago." Han Fei said what had been pent up in his heart for many years.
"You, you..." The emperor pointed at Han Fei, then at the evil Taoist sitting on the dragon throne, and was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Lin Fan asked, "Master Han, do you really want to kick him to the ground and make him face reality?"
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Han Fei said without hiding anything: "I really want to. The incompetent ruler has ruined the country and exhausted Master Jiang. I really want to cut open his brain and see what's in the mind of the so-called ruler of a country."
Cough cough!
A weak cough was heard.
Everyone looked towards the door and saw an old man appear at the door with the support of someone else. The old man asked the person who was supporting him to step aside and walked in with his weak body.
Han Fei hurriedly stepped forward to help, but was rejected by Jiang Zhengduan. This made Han Fei a little uneasy. Could it be that what he just said made Master Jiang feel that it was too disrespectful, so he was unhappy?
"I, Jiang Zhengduan, greet the Taoist priest." Jiang Zhengduan saluted with his fists and looked at Taoist priest Xuan Dian who was sitting on the dragon throne with turbid eyes.
I didn't expect that Taoist Xuan Dian would actually trample all the way to the imperial city.
He felt the dragon energy in the imperial city dissipate, and immediately ordered his men to prepare horses and come over.
Lin Fan stood up and walked down from the dragon throne. No matter what, Mr. Jiang was worthy of respect. It was indeed not easy for him to shoulder the responsibility of the court with his old body.
He had passed through some counties, all of which had stories about Jiang Zhengduan.
"I have long heard of Mr. Jiang's great reputation, and I admire him very much." Lin Fan said.
"I am ashamed. I hold an important position but I cannot plead for the people. I am really ashamed. Cough, cough, cough..." Jiang Zhengduan coughed.
Lin Fan condensed a trace of green wood energy and merged it into Jiang Zhengduan's body, eliminating his hidden illness and restoring much of his energy and blood, and his complexion gradually became rosy.
This surprised Jiang Zhengduan, and he immediately clasped his fists to thank the Taoist for his help.
"Master Jiang, save me, this man is planning a rebellion." The emperor cried. Seeing Master Jiang was like seeing his backbone. He quickly told his grievances, "And this Han Fei was rude to me. Master Jiang, you have to make a decision for me."
"Your Majesty, please do not be impolite in front of the Taoist priest." Jiang Zhengduan said.
If the emperor had been scolded by someone else, he would have been furious, but facing Master Jiang, he could only keep his annoyance to himself.
Jiang Zhengduan sighed, "I wonder if the elder can give him a chance. In the past, the prominent family held all the power, which led to his self-degradation. Now everything is fine. I will teach him personally, so maybe there is still a chance."
The emperor, who had lowered his head, suddenly brightened up and said quickly, "I am willing to change. I am willing to be a good emperor who loves his people like his own children. I beg the Taoist priest to give me a chance to reform myself."
Lin Fan ignored him and smiled, "Mr. Jiang, this world is not his family's world. If it doesn't work, just find someone else. There are many people with lofty ideals in the world, and they don't need him. Mr. Jiang is loyal to the people and will not work for the emperor. It's better to choose another wise ruler."
"Master..." Jiang Zhengduan still wanted to fight for it, but Lin Fan would never give him the chance.
With a bang.
In the blink of an eye, the magic finger pierced through the emperor's head.
At this moment, the scene was eerily quiet.
Jiang Zhengduan stared at the dead emperor lying on the ground in shock, unable to come to his senses for a moment. He did not expect that the Taoist priest would act so quickly and kill the emperor just like that.
"Mr. Jiang, there is no need to bother with these things now. Before a wise ruler appears, I'll have to trouble you with all the affairs of the world." Lin Fan didn't want to get involved in these things. All he had to do was to slay demons and leave professional matters to professionals.
If you ask him to manage the country, he would rather carry a hoe and go to the fields to farm.
Han Fei said: "Master Jiang, what the Taoist said does not make sense. Master Jiang worked so hard for the sake of the world and the people. If the emperor is not capable, we can wait for a wise ruler. The most important thing at present is to manage the world well and let the people live a good life."
He was really afraid that Master Jiang would say something unpleasant and offend the Taoist priest.
Jiang Zhengduan was stunned for a moment and sighed, "Alas, this is the only way."
Lin Fan said: "Mr. Jiang, I am quite familiar with Jiang Baichuan. He governs the county very well. He has learned a lot from you and has done practical things for the people."
Jiang Zhengduan said, "Baichuan wrote to me and explained those things. I would like to thank you for your help, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
"Lord Jiang has a very high reputation in the local area. How can I sit idly by when I know this? Otherwise, this chaotic world would be deprived of a good official like Lord Jiang in vain." Lin Fan said with a smile.
Jiang Zhengduan asked, "Then I wonder what the commander is going to do next?"
To be honest, he had never been convinced by anyone in his life, but now he was really convinced. A Taoist priest had been killing people along the way since he came down the mountain, and he actually killed those guys who were a scourge to the world.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes and heard it with your own ears, it would be hard to imagine.
"Master Jiang, you know Master Guiwu, right?"
"Yes, I have met the master once. He is a rare Buddhist monk in the world."
"Well, Master has played an indispensable role in my ability to destroy Wuwang and Huangtian Sect. Now, the only thing left is the Northern Territory. There is a great demon there. I am going to go to the Northern Territory with Master and eliminate this demon once and for all."
Although the great demon Gu Xingyun can be resurrected repeatedly, there must be a way to kill him.
There is a magic eye in the Northern Territory. The strange magic energy it emits can revive Gu Xingyun. If the magic eye can be sealed, then Gu Xingyun will not be a concern.
Jiang Zhengduan knew the situation in the Northern Territory. It was once a country, but an abnormal outbreak led to its destruction, and it became the place where demons are rampant today.
Now the Taoist priest and the master have come forward.
It's actually quite reassuring.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest."
"It's my job. I wonder if you could take me to the palace treasury. I'm looking for something and want to see if it's in the treasury." Lin Fan has already set his sights on the treasuries of all the major forces.
There are many things in the Holy Father’s treasury, and they are still being classified.
He just didn't know what the imperial palace treasury was like, but to be honest, he didn't have much confidence in the imperial palace treasury, mainly because the emperor was not a cultivator and didn't even know martial arts.
Moreover, he beat the emperor to death without even a master showing up.
He even suspected that there were only some gold, silver and treasures in it.
"Please follow me, Taoist priest."
Jiang Zhengduan was very familiar with the location of the imperial palace treasury and led Xuan Dian there.
Soon they arrived at the location of the treasure house. It was not hidden underground, but was just a large hall with no windows on the surrounding walls, which were all sealed.
I pushed the door open and walked in. Under the light, there was a lot of dust floating in the air. It seemed that no one had been in for a long time, and there was a rotten smell inside.
Just as he thought, there were many boxes inside, and the boxes were filled with gold, silver and treasures. These were not what he wanted. He kept scanning the room, looking for the stone slab.
During the search, I haven't found the stone slab yet, but I saw some books. There were actually some methods of cultivation. I just glanced through them and found them uninteresting. I put them in the storage bag and will study them carefully when I have free time.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up and a stone slab in a corner caught his attention.
He opened his hands, mobilized his magic power, and sucked the stone slab into his hands. He looked at it carefully and found that it was really a piece of stone that he had been looking for everywhere. It was found without any effort in the treasure house.
After finding this item, Lin Fan lost all interest in other things in the treasure house.
When Master Jiang saw the stone tablet, he was shocked, "Ah, isn't this something left by our great ancestor? How did it appear in the treasure house?"
"Lord Jiang knows about this thing?" Lin Fan asked.
Jiang Zhengduan said: "Of course I know. This item was left by Taizu. Every emperor who inherits the throne needs to comprehend it carefully. I didn't expect that the item left by Taizu would be casually discarded in the treasury."
“Hahaha.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but shake his head and said, “It’s not that others want to destroy the court, but these emperors themselves destroyed the empires established by their ancestors.”
He was wondering why Taizu was able to subdue the Five Dynasties, while the subsequent emperors became puppets.
You have the Dharma in your hands, but if you don't understand it, who can you blame?
Every slab of stone contains the true Dharma.
If one could truly comprehend the true Dharma, the situation would definitely not be so bad.
They can only blame themselves for not taking the treasure seriously. They may even think that they are already emperors and that it is destiny that determines why they need to practice.
But it is also possible that my understanding is really not good enough.
The true Dharma in the stone tablet needs to be understood.
Jiang Zhengduan looked at Taoist Xuan Dian, then looked at the stone slab in his hand, as if he had realized something.
Sighing silently.
Now that things have come to this, there is nothing more to say.
