Chapter 643: The Innate Taiyin Qi, the Last Gift from Senior Sister
Empress Changsun...
Li Daoxuan's eyes narrowed. If he remembered correctly, according to the news he had heard before, Empress Changsun had passed away in the 19th year of Zhenguan.
At that time, the entire court was immersed in grief.
Although she left a will saying that she wanted to be "buried in the mountains" and "end her life in a simple manner", Li Shimin still held a grand state funeral for her. Almost all the officials in the capital wore mourning clothes to see this virtuous queen off for the last time.
Another incident happened at that time. Xu Jingzong, the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, saw a man in the funeral procession. He was the famous calligrapher Ouyang Xun. However, because Ouyang Xun was ugly, Xu Jingzong couldn't help laughing.
As luck would have it, Li Shimin heard it and demoted him to the position of Sima of Hongzhou Military Governor's Office, telling him to get as far away from home as possible.
Because this story is so interesting, it has been widely circulated among the people.
In other words, Empress Changsun was indeed dead, otherwise Li Shimin would never have held a state funeral for her.
"How do you know for sure it's Empress Changsun's scent?"
Bai Suzhen replied, "My Lord, I have a very good nose and I will not make mistakes when I meet someone. You brought me to the palace many times, and there was also the locust-killing god of Dengzhou. You sent me to rush back to Taiji Palace overnight to bring the locusts to Your Majesty. Empress Changsun was also present at the time."
Li Daoxuan nodded.
Xiaobai is indeed very sensitive to smells. Although he is not as sensitive as Xiaotian, he is still rare in the world.
When he first entered the palace, Concubine Yang walked past him and Xiaobai moved strangely. This was because Xiaobai had seen Concubine Yang when he was controlled by Pan Dan.
Some people in the Moro religion get together regularly.
Li Daoxuan frowned slightly.
Xiaobai would not lie to him, but Empress Changsun was obviously just an ordinary person with no cultivation, and she died in the 19th year of Zhenguan, while Xiaobai was attacked in the 20th year of Zhenguan.
Things became confusing.
Li Daoxuan suddenly thought of something. Empress Changsun died of illness. If it was the old Tang Dynasty , it would be fine, but there are immortal cultivators in the current Tang Dynasty. Among other things, Changle is a Yangshen cultivator and he once studied medicine with Sun Simiao.
What disease can't even she cure?
There is something strange about this matter.
"It seems that it is necessary to go to Chang'an to take a look."
When Xiaoqing heard this, her eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "Are we going to Chang'an to fight? Master, take me with you!"
The little snake became very excited when he heard about going to Chang'an, and even called him "Master" more fluently.
Chang'an, the most prosperous place in the Tang Dynasty, and perhaps in the world, is so famous that even a snake demon like her has calluses on her ears.
Unlike Xiaobai who has seen all the prosperity in the world, she is just starting out and is yearning for the world.
“No hurry.”
Li Daoxuan's eyes were deep, and he smiled and said, "Wait a little longer."
"Waiting for what?"
"Wait for a big fish to take the bait."
…
night.
Li Daoxuan lived in the main room of the thatched cottage. This was originally Xiaobai's room. She cleaned it up and slept with Xiaoqing.
The interior decoration is simple, elegant and fragrant, with a hint of powder.
Li Daoxuan sat cross-legged and began to practice.
The spiritual energy in the human world is dozens of times thinner than that in heaven. When he first came back, he was a little uncomfortable, as if he was a dragon swimming in a shallow pool or a tiger entering a plain.
He had thought that the practice would be very slow, but as he circulated the Qi in his body, wisps of innate Taiyin Qi emerged in his body. It followed the fire dragon, water tiger, sun crow and moon rabbit, passing through the three gates of clockwise and counterclockwise, and entered the large and small cauldrons.
The two mysterious skills, "Huangting Ancient Scripture" and "Bajiu Xuan Gong", actually began to improve slowly.
The speed is not fast, but it is stable and long-lasting.
The innate Taiyin energy is almost endless and vast like the ocean. It is usually imperceptible, but as the mysterious skill is circulated, it emerges from the limbs and bones like bamboo shoots after rain.
A fairy-like aura suddenly emanated from Li Daoxuan's body, filling the room with fragrance.
…
"Sister, it smells so good!"
Xiao Qing's nose twitched, and she followed the fragrance to the courtyard, where she saw that the room where Li Daoxuan lived was emitting a faint glow, with clouds and mist all around, like a fairyland.
Even in the night sky, there were shadows of bluebirds and phoenixes, hovering and dancing on the rooftops.
"this……"
Xiaoqing looked at this scene in disbelief. Since she met Li Daoxuan, she had lost count of how many times she had been surprised today.
"Xiao Qing, this is the master practicing. You and I will sit outside and practice while protecting the Dharma!"
Bai Suzhen was not surprised at all. It was normal for a godlike figure like the master to have such noises during his practice.
When she was still a little snake, her favorite thing was to practice with the master.
The two women meditated outdoors of Li Daoxuan's room and quickly entered a state of concentration, breathing in the spiritual energy that escaped from the room through their noses. Although the amount was not much, it was of extremely high quality, extremely refined and pure.
This is why monsters are willing to be mounts for immortals. Besides the fact that they cannot defeat them, the most important thing is that they can follow those powerful people. While the others eat meat, they can also drink soup.
Any benefit given by gods and Buddhas is a great opportunity for monsters.
This practice took two hours.
The spiritual energy in the room no longer emanated, the rosy glow gradually dissipated, and finally everything returned to calm.
Xiaoqing's face was flushed, as if she had drunk ten jars of Bamboo Leaf Green and was drunk. This was because her cultivation was not enough and she had absorbed too much spiritual power, which she could not refine at once.
Compared to her, Bai Suzhen had glowing skin and bright eyes, and she looked radiant and even more beautiful.
After only two hours of practice, this great demon in the Yangshen realm had actually improved her cultivation to a level that was comparable to several years of hard practice.
"Master, Xiaobai wants to see you."
The door opened automatically and Li Daoxuan slowly opened his eyes.
In an instant, lightning appeared in the empty room, and Xiaobai felt as if there was thunder in front of his eyes. The entire night sky seemed to have turned into daytime, but the next moment everything returned to normal.
Only those eyes like the stars in the sky were looking at her quietly.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that although the master was looking at her, it was always like he was looking at someone else.
Li Daoxuan looked at the figure in white clothes as white as snow, elegant and refined, and thought of his senior sister again.
He has understood the source of this innate Taiyin energy.
Senior sister is the reincarnation of Queen Mother of the West, and Queen Mother of the West was transformed from the innate Taiyin Qi. Li Daoxuan naturally benefited greatly from practicing dual cultivation with her.
The one night of passion on the Phoenix Bed was not only the revenge of the Queen Mother of the West, but also the final gift to him.
In a trance, he seemed to hear his senior sister's voice again in his ears, with a smile and a hint of teasing.
"Junior brother, what that little lotus can give you, I can give you too, and even more."
He had benefited greatly from the two hours of practice just now, and the innate Taiyin Qi he had refined was just a drop in the ocean. One could imagine how precious this gift was.
Touching the faint red mark on his wrist, Li Daoxuan sighed inwardly.
It is the hardest to thank a beautiful woman for her kindness.
"Master, I wonder if Xiaoqing can also practice the cultivation methods you taught me?"
Bai Suzhen bowed and asked.
Although she and Xiaoqing were like sisters, she never taught Xiaoqing the Taoist techniques without Li Daoxuan's permission. The techniques she taught were all her own creations.
Li Daoxuan glanced outside the door and saw Xiaoqing rolling on the ground as if drunk, giggling foolishly, somersaulting from time to time, and walking upside down, like a martial arts acrobat.
He shook his head and smiled, "It doesn't matter, just ."
Although Xiaoqing is still wild by nature, she is still kind-hearted , loyal, and has the spirit of a chivalrous woman, so she is worth cultivating.
"Thank you, sir!"
Bai Suzhen's eyes lit up with joy. She lifted her skirt and thanked him gracefully, then was about to leave.
"Wait a moment."
Li Daoxuan pointed his finger and a ray of golden light penetrated into her forehead.
"You have entered the Yang God Realm, so it is time to pass this magical power on to you. However, it is subtle and profound, and difficult to understand. Whether you can cultivate it depends on your own luck."
Bai Suzhen closed her eyes for a long time, and when she opened them again, her eyes were full of emotion.
The great magical power of Tiangang - moving stars and changing constellations!
She never thought that the master could even pass on this magical power to her. After all, she was a demon, but the master trusted her so much...
"This is the highest level of magical power of my sect. You are not allowed to teach it to others without my permission."
"yes!"
Bai Suzhen's eyes moved, and she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
"What's wrong?"
"Master, the way you looked at me just now...seemed a little sad. Did Xiaobai do something wrong?"
Li Daoxuan was stunned for a moment, and then sighed softly.
"You didn't do anything wrong. I just thought of my senior sister."
"Fairy Taizhen?"
Xiaobai had seen Taizhen before, but it was still a small snake at that time, hiding on Li Daoxuan's wrist all day and was inconspicuous.
Li Daoxuan did not hide anything and told her about his experience with his senior sister.
He had been holding these words in his heart for a long time, and now that he had spoken them out, he felt like he was venting.
When Bai Suzhen heard that Taizhen resolutely reincarnated and the master tied a red rope to seal their fate for three lives, she was so moved that she burst into tears. She also understood that when the master looked at her just now, he was thinking of the fairy Taizhen.
"Master, if you really want... Xiaobai can... play the role of Fairy Taizhen..."
She pursed her red lips, a blush appeared on her white jade face, and she mustered up the courage to say this sentence.
She was saved and raised by the master, so even if she sacrificed herself to the master, it would not be a big deal.
As long as I can help the master relieve his distress, it will be worth it.
As she spoke, she had already extended her hand to the silk ribbon in front of her chest, her waist was soft as if it had no bones, swaying gently like a willow. Although she had just transformed a few years ago, there was still a hint of a snake in her every move.
Li Daoxuan waved his hand to stop her and stared at her.
"You are Bai Suzhen, you don't need to pretend to be anyone else."
"Go back and rest."
Bai Suzhen showed a trace of guilt on her face, lowered her eyes and said: "Yes!"
As the door closed, Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly.
Although he had a good impression of Lady White Snake when he read The Legend of the White Snake, when she became the white snake he raised, he still had some resentment in his heart even if she became more beautiful after her transformation.
After all, not everyone can be a grassroots hero.
Moreover, he has too many romantic debts. Although Zhengyi monks do not abstain from marriage and funerals, they cannot be too fickle.
…
The next day, early morning.
The three of them ate together in the courtyard.
What we ate was Brahman light noodles, which are actually white, plump, fluffy and soft sugar-coated buns, a delicacy introduced to the Tang Dynasty from India. It was paired with a dish of scallion and vinegar chicken and a pot of monkey wine. It was simple but delicious.
These are all Xiaobai's cooking skills. Li Daoxuan did not expect that she, a snake demon, had such superb cooking skills.
But if you think about the gentle and virtuous White Snake in "The Legend of White Snake", it's not surprising.
"Master, aren't we going to Chang'an yet?"
Ever since she woke up with a surge of magic power, Xiaoqing has been calling "Master" more fluently and even took up some food for Li Daoxuan on her own initiative as if to please him.
She's almost becoming a little fangirl.
Li Daoxuan took a sip of wine and smiled faintly: "No hurry, wait a little longer."
Xiaoqing was about to speak when she saw Li Daoxuan pause with his chopsticks.
"Looks like he's taken the bait."
Just when she was full of doubts, an angry shout suddenly came from outside the door, like thunder, echoing throughout the entire Yunlong Mountain, causing countless innocent birds to be shocked into blood foam.
"How dare you, monster, hurt me, the bad guys of the Tang Dynasty!"
"I am the Patrolling Dharma King under the Holy Buddha. Why don't you die quickly!!!"
Crash!
The howling wind swept across the sky and earth, instantly blowing open the door of the thatched cottage, and the table with breakfast on it began to tremble.
Xiaoqing's whole body tensed up instantly and she felt a tremendous pressure, as if she saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and piles of bones. A sense of fear spread in her heart.
Bai Suzhen held her hand.
Xiaoqing looked at her calm sister and the master who was still eating meat and drinking, and her heart calmed down as well.
"Such a strong demonic aura, haha, it seems that I——"
The sound outside the door stopped abruptly.
The Sky Patrolling Dharma King, who had a pair of wings on his back, a green face and fangs, stared at the handsome figure in white clothes and a golden belt, who was quietly tasting delicious food.
Drops of cold sweat slid down his cheeks, making a crackling sound as they fell to the ground, corroding the soil.
Li Daoxuan finally put down his chopsticks and looked at him with calm eyes.
Boom!
The Sky Patrolling Dharma King felt as if he was struck by lightning. Fear was revealed in his eyes, and there was no trace of his previous arrogance anymore. He flapped his wings, turned around and fled.
The Bad Guys Captain Wei Ruhai was standing behind him, looking at Li Daoxuan with vicious eyes.
It was because of this that he lost all his cultivation and became a useless person.
When he saw the Sky Patrol Dharma King preparing to escape, he hurried forward to stop him, and asked in confusion: "Dharma King, why are you——"
"The thief misled me!!!"
The Sky Patrolling Dharma King roared angrily and smashed his head directly, with flesh and brains splattering everywhere.
Then he flew away without looking back, as fast as a meteor.
Xiaoqing was completely stunned.
This... running away already?
"Master, do you want to chase me?"
Bai Suzhen asked.
Li Daoxuan shook his head and smiled.
"No need, he will come back on his own."
