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 on the side opened his mouth slightly. 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.
“你,你……”皇帝被气的胸口起伏,转头道:“韩爱卿,给朕将这逆贼拿下,朕封你做……”
“皇上,这位是玄颠道长,你不可无礼,如今五望与黄天教皆被道长所灭,就连韩显贵也是死在百姓手里,莫要胡言乱语。”韩飞提醒着。
在众多未见过圣上的人而言,圣上必然是天颜,龙威慑人,但如亲眼所见,怕是会失望至极,这副模样跟流连青楼的嫖狗有何区别,甚至还不如呢。
皇帝听闻此话,心中大惊,随即眼珠一转,脸色大喜,“原来是爱国之士,朕被五望与黄天教架空,空有治国之能却无力施展,如今承蒙道长助朕铲除那些祸国殃民之人,朕要封道长为国师,为异姓王。”
一旁的韩飞无语,这是何等的奇葩,现在的重点是这些吗?
就真的连一点点现实都看不出来吗?
“哈哈哈。”林凡轻声笑着,“你这家伙好奇怪,说话是真一套套的,在贫道眼里,你连废物都不如,竟然说有治国之能,这国你是不合适了。”
“放肆,朕乃天命所归,你竟然说出如此大逆不道的话,来人,来人呐。”皇帝被玄颠气的红温,大声喊叫着。
“别喊了。”林凡不悦道。
“你放肆。”皇帝看向韩飞,“韩爱卿,你瞧瞧这大逆不道之人,你还愣着干什么,赶紧将他拿下啊。”
韩飞心中疯狂吐槽。
拿尼玛呀。
真把道长给惹急了,莫要说你这废物皇帝,我都有可能被砍。
“皇上,莫要跟孩子似的,看清现实吧,你有没有治国之能,你心里就没一点数嘛,如果不是江师强撑着,你早就没了。”韩飞将积压在心里多年的话说了出来。
“你,你……”皇帝指着韩飞,又指着坐在龙椅上的妖道,气的话都有些说不出来了。
林凡道:“韩大人,你是不是很想将他踹倒在地,让他认清楚现实?”
6◇9◇书◇吧
韩飞毫无隐藏道:“的确很想,昏君误国,更是将江师累的心力交瘁,韩某真想切开他的脑海,看看所谓的一国之君脑子里装的都是些什么?”
咳咳!
一道虚弱的咳嗽声传来。
众人朝着门口看去,一位苍老的老者在他人的搀扶出现在门口,老者让搀扶人退到一旁,撑着虚弱的身躯走了进来。
韩飞连忙上前想要搀扶,却被江正端拒绝,这让韩飞有些忐忑,不会是刚刚说的话,让江师觉得太大逆不道,所以不太高兴了吧。
“老夫江正端见过道长。”江正端抱拳行礼,浑浊目光看向端坐在龙椅上的玄颠道长。
没想到玄颠道长果真一路踏平到皇城。
皇城龙气溃散,他感受到,便立马让人备马前来。
林凡起身走下龙椅,不管如何,这位江先生是值得敬重的,以年迈之躯硬扛着如此朝廷,的确是非常不容易。
他曾经路过一些县城,都有江正端的事迹。
“久闻江先生盛名,贫道敬佩。”林凡说道。
“惭愧,老夫身居要位,却无法为民请命,实在是惭愧,咳咳咳……”江正端咳嗽着。
林凡凝出一抹青木之气融入到江正端体内,为其祛除暗疾,使其气血恢复许多,脸色逐渐红润起来。
这让江正端颇为惊讶,随即抱拳感谢道长相助。
“江师,救我,此人要谋反啊。”皇帝哭着,看到江师就跟看到主心骨似的,连忙将委屈说出来,“还有这韩飞,竟然对朕无礼,江师你可要为朕做主啊。”
“皇上,莫要在道长面前失了礼数。”江正端说着。
如果是被别人训斥,皇帝早就勃然大怒,但面对江师,他只能将苦闷憋在心里。
江正端轻叹着,“不知道长能否给他一次机会,曾经是望族独揽大权,导致他自甘堕落,如今一切都好了,老夫亲自教导,或许还有机会。”
低着脑袋的皇帝眼睛一亮,连忙道:“朕愿意改,朕愿意成为爱民如子的好皇帝,恳请道长能给朕一次改过自新的机会。”
林凡没理睬他,而是微笑道:“江先生,这天下不是他家的天下,不行就换一个,天下有志之士多的很,不缺他一人,而江先生忠于百姓,非为帝王家卖命,还是另选明君吧。”
“道长……”江正端还想争取一下,但林凡哪里会给机会。
砰的一声。
弹指间,法力指贯穿皇帝的脑袋。
在这一刻,现场宁静的可怕。
江正端惊愣的望着倒地死去的皇帝,一时间没法回过神,没想到道长出手如此之快,就这般将皇帝给杀掉了。
“江先生,现在没必要纠缠这些事情了,在明君还未出现,这天下之事还得有劳江先生了。”林凡对这些事情不想多管,他要做的就是斩妖除魔,专业的事情交给专业人来做。
你让他管理国家,他宁愿背着锄头下底种田。
韩飞道:“江师,道长说的并无道理啊,江师呕心沥血,不就是为了世道苍生嘛,皇帝不行咱们就等待明君,而当前最重要的事情,就是管理好天下,让百姓们过上好日子。”
他真怕江师说不好听的话得罪道长。
江正端愣神片刻,轻叹着,“唉,只能如此了。”
林凡道:“江先生,我与江百川颇为熟悉,他治理的县城就很好,也是深得你的真传,为百姓们做了实事啊。”
江正端开口,“百川有写信给老夫,说明了那些事情,在此多谢道长相助之情,否则后果不堪设想啊。”
“江大人在当地名声极高,贫道得知岂能坐视不管,否则岂不是让这浑浊世道白白少了像江大人这样的好官。”林凡笑着说道。
江正端道:“那不知道长接下来有何打算?”
他活到这岁数,说实话,从未服过人,但现在他是真的服气,一位道长自从下山到现在,一路走来,砍杀一路,竟然真将祸害世道的那些家伙给灭掉。
要不是亲眼所见,亲耳所听,真的让人难以想象。
“江大人知晓皈无大师吧。”
“知道,曾经与大师见过一面,世间难得的佛门高僧。”
“嗯,贫道能灭掉五望与黄天教,大师功不可没,如今剩下北域之地,那边有尊大魔,贫道准备跟大师去北域,将此魔彻底除掉。”
虽说大魔古行云能不断复活,但肯定是有办法搞死对方的。
北域有魔眼,所散发出的奇异魔气能让古行云复活,如果能将魔眼封印住,那么古行云不足为虑。
江正端知晓北域的情况,曾经也是一国,但异样爆发导致国灭,变成现如今妖魔横行之地。
现在有道长跟大师出面。
倒也是让人心安的很。
“有劳道长了。”
“分内之事,不知能不能带贫道到皇宫宝库里走一走,贫道正在寻找一件东西,想看看宝库里有没有。”林凡已经盯上各大势力的宝库了。
圣父宝库东西不少,到现在都在归类着。
就是不知道皇宫宝库怎么样,但说实话,他对皇宫宝库没有太大的信心,主要是皇帝竟然不是修行者,甚至连武学都不会。
而且他将皇帝打死,连个高手都没出现。
他都怀疑,那里面只有些金银财宝。
“请道长随老夫来。”
江正端对皇宫宝库的位置很熟悉,带领着玄颠前去。
很快就来到宝库所在的位置,没有隐藏在地底,就是光明正大的一间大殿,四周墙壁没有窗户,全部都被封实。
推门进去,光线的照耀下,空气中飘散着许多灰尘,似乎许久没人进来过,里面有股腐烂的味道。
如他所想的一样,里面摆放着许多箱子,箱子里都是金银财宝,这些不是他想要到的,视线不断扫视着,寻找着石板。
在寻找的过程中,还未找到石板,却看到一些书籍,还真有一些修行法,大致翻阅不过如此,没什么意思,放到储物袋里,等有空闲时间的时候,就能好好研究一下了。
忽然,他眼里冒光,在一处角落一块石板引起他的注意。
张开手,调动法力,将石板吸到手里,仔细看着,果真踏破草鞋无觅处,得来全不费工夫,还真在宝库里找到了这块石板。
找到此物后,林凡对宝库里别的东西没了丝毫的兴趣。
江师看到石板的时候,心中一惊,“啊,这不是太祖所留之物嘛,怎么会出现在宝库里。”
“江大人知道此物?”林凡询问道。
江正端道:“自然知晓,此物乃是太祖所留,每一代继承大统的皇帝,都需要用心感悟,没想到太祖所留之物,竟然被随意丢弃在宝库中。”
“哈哈哈。”林凡忍不住的摇头道:“不是他人要灭了朝廷,而是这些皇帝自己灭了自己祖宗打下的江山啊。”
他就说嘛,太祖为何能降服五望,而后面的那些皇帝,却成为傀儡。
有法在手,不去领悟,这能怪谁。
每一块石板都蕴含真法。
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.
