Volume 4: Journey to the West Chapter 30 Famous Scene
Jiale and Chang'e just watched and let Tianpeng and Baoer enjoy their time.
a long time.
The two finally separated, and Tianpeng looked at Jiale. He naturally knew Jiale, but he did not expect that the person who was with him and saved Baoer was actually Jiale. You know, he and this person had no relatives.
"senior!"
Tianpeng stood in front of Jiale and didn't know how to address him for a moment. Finally, he could only call him "senior". After all, the last time in Northern Juluzhou, Jiale had defeated five demon saints alone, so he should be considered a senior.
Jiale shook his head.
"You don't have to be so polite. Just call me fellow Taoist, or just call me Jingchun. You don't have to feel too burdened. Whether it's saving you or Bao'er, I have a purpose."
Tianpeng was not surprised at all. If he had no relatives or friends and had no purpose, it would make people suspicious. So he bowed immediately.
"Senior, please feel free to speak up. Saving my life is a life-saving favor. As long as Tianpeng can do it, I will definitely not refuse."
Jiale smiled when he heard this and shook his head again.
"You didn't understand what I meant. I saved you, and even expected you and Bao'er to get married. It was not unexpected that you and Bao'er were robbed. It was also not unexpected that you went against the sky, and it was natural for the Tianhe Navy to help you. The only thing that might have surprised me was that you were able to break through in the middle of the battle.
Before, you helped me attract the attention of the Heavenly Court and accomplished a great thing for me. In fact, I used you. This is the purpose of what I said. "
Um!
Tian Peng was stunned when he heard this. He was so busy fighting that he didn't pay much attention to what was happening in the Heavenly Palace. It seemed that the Jade Emperor and others had also been dispatched before. Could it be all because of Jia Le?
However, none of this matters. Tian Peng feels even more grateful when he sees Jia Le’s open-minded attitude. Jia Le could have kept these things to himself and earned his gratitude for nothing. But now he has told them all. It takes a very broad mind to be so open-minded. He doesn’t care how Jia Le has used him. He cares about what he has gained.
Anyway, with the help of Jiale, he gained so much, and that was enough.
"Senior, you have an open mind, and I admire you. However, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that you saved me and Baoer. From now on, if you have any orders, Tianpeng will obey them."
Jiale was also very satisfied. There is a big difference between gratitude with grudge and gratitude with openness. What he did could certainly not be hidden from Tianpeng. Taishang Laojun's mouth was not that tight-lipped. In this case, he must have said it earlier. Tianpeng now is not an ordinary character. He has the cultivation level of a Daluo Jinxian and is in charge of 300,000 naval forces of the Heavenly Court. He will definitely be useful in the future.
Jiale and the Jade Emperor are definitely at loggerheads now. After Tianpeng's behavior, Jiale and the Jade Emperor will definitely not be on good terms either. The enemy's friend is a friendly army, so this is a good deal.
"Well, since you said so, I won't say any more. However, you have offended the Jade Emperor badly this time. You must be careful when you go back."
Tianpeng nodded and looked at Chang'e.
"Fairy Chang'e, it was Tianpeng who offended me before. Please forgive me."
Chang'e was startled when she heard this, and waved her hand, "It's all in the past. I want to congratulate you on finding a good match."
Tianpeng and Baoer reunited after a long separation and did not stay on Taiyin Star for long before leaving. Jiale looked at Chang'e and made Chang'e feel embarrassed.
"What do you mean by staring at me?"
"Aren't you leaving?"
Chang'e paused when she heard this and wanted to say something, but finally she endured it and turned to walk towards Guanghan Palace, looking flexible and resilient.
Jiale also smiled and went straight to Doumu Star Palace.
At this time in the Doumu Star Palace, all the Shangqing disciples gathered there, including the Wu Dang Holy Mother, the Three Sky, and so on.
Seeing Jiale coming in, a group of Shangqing disciples rushed over. If Jiale before was just their junior or peer, then Jiale now was their benefactor. Helping them escape from the List of Gods was a greater favor than saving their lives.
"Jingchun, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, we don't know how long we would have to endure the wrath of the Jade Emperor. I am so grateful for your kindness. If you need my help in the future, just let me know. I, Zhao Gongming, will never refuse."
"Yes, Jingchun, we actually doubted whether you could do it before. Now it seems like we deserved to die for doubting you."
"Yes, from now on, if you have anything to ask, just tell me. If it can be done, I will do it. If it cannot be done, I will do it even if I risk my life."
…
The Shangqing disciples in the palace were talking to each other, and Jiale couldn't help laughing as he listened. He could tell that they were all sincere and they were really happy as they had just escaped from the calamity.
The Golden Spirit Mother also stood up from the throne and came to Jiale.
"Jia Le, ever since you showed up, I had a feeling that you would bring important changes to my Shangqing clan. However, I never thought that you could do this. From now on, the resources and manpower of my Shangqing clan will be at your disposal. If you want to do anything, just do it. We will definitely cooperate."
The Golden Spirit Mother saw not only Jiale’s talent and strength, but also Jiale’s ability to plan.
Just like this time, Jiale's layout was so far-reaching that they had not expected it. The Golden Spirit Holy Mother knew her level. She was good at fighting and her brain was also online, but it was basically impossible for her to have such a layout. The Shangqing lineage was not good at this either. Jiale's approach was more like that of the first and second uncles. However, among the disciples of these two lineages, no one dared to say that they could set up such a big plan and succeed.
The Golden Spirit Holy Mother and others also realized that after the loss of the Shangqing Taoist Ancestor, the Shangqing lineage no longer had the strength to sweep away everything. Proper layout was very necessary. Professional people should do professional things, and the dirty and tiring work had to be left to Jiale.
Jiale didn't know what the Golden Spirit Mother was thinking, otherwise he would have to ask for some wages.
In short, after experiencing this incident, Jiale's position in the Shangqing lineage has become extremely important. Even compared with the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and the Wudang Holy Mother, he is only slightly inferior.
The Golden Spirit Mother is already planning to reopen Jin'ao Island. After the great calamity of the Conferred Gods, the Biyou Palace on Jin'ao Island was closed.
Even the Holy Mother Wu Dang, who inherited the position of the head sect, never went back. Perhaps it was because there were too many sad people and sad things there, or perhaps she wanted to wait until everyone was gathered before going back, or perhaps it was because the luck of the Shangqing lineage was no longer enough to occupy Jin'ao Island.
After leaving Heaven, Jiale went straight to the Tang Dynasty.
Now that everything is done, it's time to go and see what his eldest disciple is doing.
Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.
Jiale landed on the street. The Tang Dynasty at this time was truly worthy of the words "Zhenguan Governance". The people on the street all had satisfied smiles on their faces, and their life seemed to be decent. The security on the streets was also good. Overall, everything seemed to be thriving.
"Make way, make way."
At this moment, an old man carrying a fish basket walked past Jiale and went straight to a fortune-telling stall.
Jiale also looked over.
Um!
It turned out to be a monk. Jia Le only noticed at this time that there was a monk setting up a stall on the streets of Chang'an.
The Tang Dynasty, no, it should be said that the entire Southern Continent is too filled with worldly energy. It is indeed not suitable for cultivators above the fairyland to practice here. The worldly energy, also known as demonic energy, is extremely poisonous to cultivators. Except for some cultivators who practice magic skills, I am afraid that no other cultivators would like it.
Although this cultivator who was setting up a stall was only a Xuanxian, he was practicing the authentic Xuanmen method, and it seemed that it was the method of West Kunlun. He should have only entered the world for a short period of time to temper his mind in the mortal world.
"Sir, sir, look, this is today's fortune. Can you help me calculate how I should fish tomorrow?"
fishing!
Jia Le's heart moved, and he calculated with his hands. Although he couldn't know everything because the secret was hidden, he was sure that the fortune teller in front of him was Yuan Shoucheng. It was a coincidence.
Jinghe Dragon Palace.
The Jing River is not a small river. Outside the Four Seas, there has always been a saying of Four Rivers and Eight Streams. In fact, the status of the Four Rivers is not much lower than that of the Four Seas. The Eight Streams are branches of the Four Rivers. The Jing River and the Wei River are the two most important tributaries of the Yellow River. The rank of the Jing River Dragon King is only half a grade lower than that of the Yellow River. This is already very remarkable. At least the status of the Jing River Dragon King in the dragon clan is already high-level.
"Father, that old man who fishes comes to our Jing River to fish every day, and he always has a big catch. If he continues like this, I'm afraid all the fish in our Jing River will be caught by him. I heard that he can have such a big catch because a man in Chang'an City tells him fortunes. Every day, the old man gives the first fish he catches to the Taoist fortune teller as a fortune-teller, and the Taoist tells the old man the fishing place and time, and he never makes a mistake. We can't just sit there and watch."
Hmm! Is there such a powerful person?
The Dragon King of Jing River was moved when he heard this. It was not that he cared about what his son said about all the fish in Jing River being caught, but he was curious about the fortune teller.
There are so many fish in the Jing River that it is impossible for an old man to catch all of them, let alone ten or a hundred.
But the Dragon King of Jinghe River couldn't stand your fortune-telling and using the Jinghe River as a gimmick. In his understanding, Yuan Shoucheng was using him to do business.
After thinking about it, I decided to go into the city to take a look.
On the second day, after the old fisherman finished his work, the Dragon King of Jing River followed the old fisherman into Chang'an City.
Although he is a righteous god, he still feels a little uncomfortable feeling the strong aura of humanity in Chang'an City.
However, the Dragon King of Jinghe came here with a purpose this time, so he naturally would not care about these things. After all, he is a righteous god, and no matter how great the luck of the Human Emperor is, it cannot affect him.
Soon, the Dragon King of Jinghe River followed the old man who was fishing to the fortune-telling stall.
At this time, the fortune-telling stall was already surrounded by a lot of people. However, these people were obviously familiar with the old man who was fishing. When they saw the old man coming, they all made way for him to come in.
Looking at the big fat carp in the hands of the old fisherman, the people surrounding the fortune-telling stall also showed envious eyes. They were very envious of such a harvest.
Everyone who knows about the fortune-telling stall knows that the old man in front of him was just a poor man who could not even make ends meet and whose son could not find a wife. But now, since he met Yuan Shoucheng, his luck has turned around. He catches fish every day. In the beginning, he only caught a few fish, but now, his stall is getting bigger and bigger, and his ambition is also getting bigger and bigger.
He was no longer satisfied with just fishing, so he started casting the net. Each net could hold dozens of kilograms of catch, and he would often catch at least 100 or 200 kilograms every day.
The only thing the old man has to pay every day is fishing time and a carp as a reward.
Just say, who wouldn’t be envious?
Yuan Shoucheng was used to it, so he took the fish from the old man and designated the time and place for fishing tomorrow. Although everyone was envious, no one followed suit, which was strange. They had thought about taking advantage of the old man before, but when they arrived at the river, at the same time and place, the old man was able to catch fish, but they got nothing.
Therefore, as this matter spread, Yuan Shoucheng's fame grew.
The old man who was fishing left with satisfaction. Yuan Shoucheng saw that it was getting late and was also preparing to close the stall, so he said, "This is the last fortune-telling today. Who's coming?"
Everyone hurried forward, but were pushed aside by the Dragon King of Jinghe River and came in front of Yuan Shoucheng.
He had to teach Yuan Shoucheng a lesson today in order to save face.
Sitting in front of Yuan Shoucheng, he spread his hands and said, "I'll do the divination. I'll give you a lot of money, but if the divination is not accurate, don't blame me for dismantling your stall."
Everyone originally wanted to find this queue-cutting and arrogant Jinghe Dragon King to argue with him, but now, seeing his aura, they all backed off. It was not worth it just for a divination. It looked like he was not someone to be trifled with.
Jia Le, who was standing behind the crowd, couldn't help but be dazzled when he saw this scene. What a famous scene.
However, the Dragon King of the Jing River was really destined to suffer this calamity. At this moment, the Dragon King of the Jing River was just like Tian Peng before. After entering Chang'an City, the aura of calamity enveloped him. By the time he sat down in front of Yuan Shoucheng and said he wanted to tell his fortune, the aura of calamity had become extremely dense. The Dragon King of the Jing River did not know at this time that he had already fallen into calamity.
Jia Le did not get involved. This matter was obviously a plan of Buddhism. He had no friendship with the Jinghe Dragon King, so he could not destroy for the sake of destruction. That was not in line with his style. What was important was the motivation of interests. The Jinghe Dragon King could not give him enough benefits. It was also because the Jinghe Dragon King was not worthy of his position and his luck was not enough to suppress his own status, so he had brought about today's disaster.
The Jinghe Dragon King himself has true dragon blood, which is not outstanding, but he has nine sons with strong blood. You know, the dragon clan attaches great importance to blood. The better the blood, the greater the potential, and the higher the future cultivation level and achievements will be.
The nine sons of the Jinghe Dragon King are even stronger than the four dragon princes.
The eldest son, Little Yellow Dragon, lived in Huaidu, which means the Huai River. Huaishui is one of the "Four Rivers" along with the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Ji River. It is a fifth-rank dragon god.
The second son, Xiao Lilong, was seen living in Jidu and dwelling by the Ji River.
The third son, the Green-backed Dragon, occupied Jiangdu, on the Yangtze River.
The fourth son, Red Bearded Dragon, guards Hedu and the Yellow River.
I just want to ask you if you are afraid or not. Let's not talk about the other sons, but these four have already occupied the four rivers. Just think about this momentum. Although the Jinghe Dragon King is only a dragon king of a tributary of the Yellow River, his status is definitely not inferior to that of the Four Seas Dragon Kings. He is not a low-key person either. Aren't they just waiting to be messed with?
Good fortune cannot suppress one's status, and disaster is imminent. I'm afraid that the Four Seas Dragon Kings, and even other elders in the Dragon Clan, can't stand it anymore and want to deal with the Jinghe Dragon King. Now, the Four Seas Dragon Kings are not unaware of this matter, and perhaps it was decided after consultation between the Dragon Clan and the Buddhist sect.
The Five-son Vain Dragon is one of the Eight Heavenly Dragons in Buddhism. Together with the Buddha, he is in charge of, grasps, and is responsible for time.
The six stable beast dragons are in the heavenly palace, guarding the spine with the priests. They are the dragon gods of construction and the dragon gods of transportation.
The seventh son, Jing Zhonglong, is also in Heaven, guarding the Qingtian Huabiao for the Jade Emperor and is the guardian dragon god.
The eighth son, Mirage Dragon, sits on Mount Taiyue and is the Dragon God of Mount Taiyue. His status is no less than that of his brothers.
That is to say, the Nine-Child Alligator Dragon is still young, otherwise, it would have to seek a high position. So, even though the Dragon King of Jinghe River is only a Xuanxian cultivator and has a low status, his power is not small.
Of course, Yuan Shoucheng's target was probably not the Dragon King of Jinghe River, but the King of Tang. After all, the Dragon King of Jinghe River had been plotted against so many times, but he was just a tool. Well, it was very miserable.
"Oh, I wonder what you want to calculate?"
After seeing the Dragon King of Jinghe River, Yuan Shoucheng's eyes lit up. The old man was fishing, and he was fishing for the dragon. Now it has taken the bait, right?
The Dragon King of Jinghe River looked at Yuan Shoucheng. He could see that Yuan Shoucheng really had some abilities. If that was the case, he couldn't just calculate it casually. He had to calculate some things that he could control. An idea came to his mind.
"Can you tell me what the weather will be like tomorrow?"
weather!
When Yuan Shoucheng heard this, two words immediately came to his mind: seeking death.
If you fall into a pit yourself, don't blame Yuan Shoucheng for stepping on you. Yuan Shoucheng had just come down the mountain from his studies in West Kunlun. Before going down the mountain, he received instruction from his master, who said that there was an opportunity and merit waiting for him to go to the Tang Dynasty to obtain it. Naturally, he didn't want to miss such an opportunity and merit, so he set up a fortune-telling stall directly in Chang'an City.
Yuan Shoucheng’s current cultivation level is at the peak of Xuanxian. Once this opportunity of merit comes into his hands, he will be able to break through directly.
Yuan Shoucheng did not hesitate and directly calculated tomorrow's weather. However, after hearing it, the Dragon King of Jinghe River could not help but burst out laughing. How ridiculous, how ridiculous! This Yuan Shoucheng was really too crazy. He not only calculated that the weather would be cloudy and rainy, but also calculated the rainfall time to the nearest millimeter.
Are you kidding me?
The rainfall in Chang'an City is under the control of the Dragon King of Jinghe River. No matter how much it rains, it is all up to the Dragon King of Jinghe River.
Therefore, it must be sunny tomorrow, and this fortune-telling stall must be dismantled.
"Okay, I want to see if tomorrow's weather will be as you said. If you are right, I will give you fifty gold coins. But if you are wrong, humph, you can forget about this fortune-telling stall. You can forget about setting up this stall anymore. Get out of Chang'an City."
The Dragon King of Jinghe River left with satisfaction, but he did not notice the coldness in Yuan Shoucheng's eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.
Jia Le also looked at Yuan Shoucheng. This man was Yuan Tiangang's uncle. He was quite powerful and had a good character. This time, Yuan Shoucheng plotted against the Jinghe Dragon King. Even if he had the support of Buddhism and the dragon clan, it was inevitable that he would offend the Jinghe Dragon King's sons. The nine dragon sons would definitely look for him first. It was unknown whether he could withstand it.
It would be good if he could break through successfully, but if he fails, it is not impossible that he would be killed.
Jiale did not stay in Chang'an City for long. The matter had already been settled, and he did not want to waste time here. Sensing Xi Tuan's breath, he went straight to find him.
Maoshan.
Looking at the mist-covered mountain in front of him, Jiale couldn't help but nodded. This Maoshan Mountain could be said to be one of the rare fairy mountains in the Tang Dynasty.
Xi Tuan arranged the Yin-Yang formation here, and also learned the true skills from Jia Le.
One step to the mountain.
In front of the mountain gate, a young Taoist priest was guarding the gate, sitting cross-legged and practicing.
He is practicing the Shangqing Dadong Sutra, and it seems that he is Xi Tuan's true disciple.
He practiced very seriously, and Jia Le did not reveal his aura, so he was approached by Jia Le without realizing it.
The realm of Yuanshen!
His qualifications are not bad, Jiale nodded. Although his qualifications are not as good as Xi Tuan's, they are not much worse, which is already very rare.
I don't know how long it took, but the young Taoist priest finally finished his practice. It was obvious that he had made great progress and he couldn't help but smile.
It's just that these eyes have just opened.
"scare!"
He was almost frightened to death. Looking at the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, his eyes met, and the little Taoist priest couldn't help but draw his sword and hit him.
Jiale shook his head and took it directly.
"This child, why is he so clumsy?"
The young Taoist priest now had some distance to himself and had time to see the person in front of him clearly. However, this one look was extraordinary.
"Grandmaster!"
Um!
The young man had good eyesight and recognized him at first sight.
"How do you know I'm your master's?"
The young Taoist priest hurried to Jiale and saluted, "Disciple Jingfeng, I pay my respects to the master. The master is in the Shangqing Hall. There is a statue of the master. The disciples of the mountain sect all know the master's honor. They look at him every day and dare not forget it."
Can speak.
I have to say that Xi Tuan has definitely inherited his legacy when it comes to accepting disciples. Just look at how easy it is to accept this disciple.
"Where is your master?"
"Master, please follow me."
Jiale didn't release his aura, so Xi Tuan really couldn't sense it. However, as they entered the mountain gate, Jiale took the initiative to release his aura.
In Shangqing Palace, Xi Tuan suddenly opened his eyes , a look of joy on his face.
"Master, Master is here!"
There were a thousand steps in total. Jiale walked on them and looked at Jingfeng beside him.
"Does it have a common name?"
"Reporting to the Grandmaster, my disciple's secular name is Li Chunfeng."
