MTL - Celestial Immortal-Chapter 757 Yuzhou Mu Tang Boqing! Whereabouts of Lingshi
"Brother, I am not a short-sighted person, how could I commit corruption."
Chen Pengju couldn't laugh or cry after hearing what his brother said.
「Ahem~little brother, your outfit is not simple..
Chu Chen has a good understanding of his younger brother's temperament, and believes that Pengju will not do such stupid things as embezzlement and bribery, and taking people's fat and anointing.
However, the treasure worn by his younger brother Pengju still made him think about it.
The brocade clothes on the body, the jade pendants around the waist, the sachet, and even the shoes under the feet are not ordinary things. They are all treasures made of natural materials and earth treasures.
Top-level magical artifacts can only be used by monks with a fifth-rank Taoism practice. Any one is worth tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of jade coins, which is simply not affordable for ordinary sixth-rank officials.
The Chen family will support Pengju, but obviously it is not so strong, and it cannot afford it at all.
Pengju doesn't know how to make money from alchemy, Danqing, etc., and has no property under his name..
Suddenly, such an outfit appeared in front of him, how could he not think about it.
Chen Pengju saw his elder brother looking at him, thinking that his elder brother is a monk with great supernatural powers, with sharp eyesight, and a look of enlightenment on his face, and then explained:
"Brother, some are rewards from the imperial court, and others are gifts from teachers. I have read the books of sages and sages, how can I go astray.
"That's good."
Chu Chen nodded slightly, smiled and patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Little brother, you have grown taller."
"Brother, we haven't seen each other for several years."
The two brothers were talking and laughing, riding the clouds and fog, and rushed towards the imperial capital.
Having not seen each other for many years, the two brothers felt a little strange at first, but after a few pleasantries, they quickly became warm and talked about everything.
Chen Pengju was very interested in the customs of the states and counties outside the Guanwai, and kept asking. Of course, he also cared about how his elder brother Chu Chen and elder sister Chen Wan were doing in the states and counties outside the Guanwai from time to time.
During the conversation, Chu Chen learned that the teacher who took good care of his younger brother Pengju was named Tang Boqing.
Who Tang Boqing is, Chu Chen really didn't know much at first, but he held the [Jiuyou Elder Order] and distracted himself to inquire about the Tang family and his younger brother Pengju, but it was just a trivial matter.
After some inquiring, Chu Chen suddenly realized when he learned the origin of the other party.
Tang Boqing is a great Confucianist in the world, one of the leaders in the literary world, with amazing Confucianism and Taoism. He is currently a shepherd in Yuzhou.
During the examination that year, Tang Boqing was still serving as the servant of the Ministry of War in the capital. He admired his younger brother Pengju and accepted him as a disciple.
Three years ago, when Tang Boqing took the post of Yuzhou pastor, he brought his younger brother Pengju, who was in the Hanlin Academy, to the place to practice.
"Little brother, you are very lucky."
Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Taoism pays attention to the inheritance of teachers and traditions, and Confucianism is no exception, and it pays attention to learning.
There are many teachers in the Confucian school, such as mentors, professional teachers, and seat teachers. However, a master and apprentice in the true sense is to join a certain school and inherit the true biography of the other school. That is the real "mentor".
This Tang Boqing is one of the leaders of the "White Deer School" of the "White Deer School".
The little brother Pengju joined Tang Boqing's family, which is really a great fortune and has a bright future.
Before, Chu Chen was still worried that the Qingyang Hou Mansion would not be able to retaliate against him and would make trouble for Pengju, but now that he learned that his younger brother had joined Tang Boqing's family and was appreciated by Tang Daru, he no longer had any worries in his heart.
"Hahaha~ brother, you are the real great fortune. You are a monk with great supernatural powers. Like your mentor, you seem to be among the high-level ranks of the Celestial Court."
Chen Pengju's face was full of emotion.
He was not surprised that his elder brother became a monk with great supernatural powers, but he never expected that his elder brother would break through so early.
"Brother, I told you the good news that you became a great supernatural monk half a year ago. You were taken aback and said three times that you are awesome, saying that there will be a chance in the future, so I must meet you."
Tang Boqing, as the shepherd of Yuzhou, guarded one side, and was not allowed to enter the court without an edict. This time, Chen Peng
One person returned to the imperial capital alone.
Chu Chen smiled, quite proud in his heart, but there was a teasing smile on the corner of his mouth:
"There will definitely be opportunities in the future. After all, we are a family, so we have to see each other anyway."
Chen Pengju saw his brother's strange expression, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and said:
"Brother, why do you speak so strangely?" Chu Chen's eyes fell on the brooch bag on the younger brother's waist:
"You have a good bag of tricks in your waist, a good female worker, the daughter of the Tang family is really skilled.
「Ahem~」
Chen Pengju was astonished: "Brother, how do you know this is a gift from your junior sister?"
"Brother, I am a monk with great supernatural powers. I can figure it out with my fingers. Brother, is my brother and sister named Tang Youwei?"
"Siblings?"
A certain three-inch radish that had just woken up heard what Chu Chen said, and then glanced at the familiar Chen Pengju, and its eyes lit up immediately.
「Plop!」「咚咚咚~」
「Pengju Pengju, I wish you a happy wedding and an early birth to a precious son..
Chen Pengju: "."
Compared to prefectural and county cities, the imperial capital is the capital of the Dachang Dynasty. Apart from the large scale of the city and the dense population, the biggest feature is that there is no city wall, extending in all directions, embracing all directions, and having the potential to swallow mountains and rivers.
A few years ago, Chu Chen came to the Taoist monastery hundreds of miles away from the imperial capital to practice, and came to the imperial capital once or twice in a hurry.
At that time, he didn't feel anything.
After all, he has seen super-large cities with a population of tens of millions, so he will not be surprised.
However, after entering the realm of great supernatural powers, the feeling of arriving in the imperial capital is different.
Here, the luck of a dynasty is gathered, and hundreds of millions of people are tied.
The rise and fall of a place affects the general trend of the world in the dark. Arriving at the imperial capital again, Chu Chen couldn't help but feel small.
"Hey, I don't know if I can survive this disaster smoothly this time."
Chu Chen muttered to himself.
Chen Pengju on the side was quite surprised: "Brother, what disaster? But the Qingyang Hou Mansion has troubled you again, do you want me?"
"It's not Qingyanghou's Mansion."
Chu Chen didn't hide from his younger brother either, and told his younger brother about the blood cloud disaster.
"There is such a thing."
After pondering for a while, Chen Pengju said: "Brother, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the Immortal Court. There are countless seniors who are highly cultivated, and there are many people who are close to immortals. It must be easy to deal with mere disasters."
「I hope so!」
While the two brothers were talking, they arrived at a spacious second courtyard in the west of the city not long after.
This is exactly where the younger brother Pengju stayed in the capital, and Chu Chen stayed in this small courtyard for a while to rest.
Although Tang Boqing guards Yuzhou, the Tang Mansion is in the imperial capital.
Chu Chen did not lose his etiquette. The next day, he brought a lot of natural materials and treasures, as well as various specialties of Yunzhou, to visit in person.
On the one hand, I would like to thank the Tang family for taking good care of his younger brother Pengju over the years. On the other hand, I also want to support my younger brother Pengju so that outsiders can know that his Chen family is not a shabby household. rich.
The Tang family is very hospitable to guests. After walking around for a few days, the relationship between the two families has become closer.
During this process, Chu Chen also caught a glimpse of Tang Youwei. She was indeed a handsome, gentle lady from a great family, and she matched well with her younger brother Pengju, so he was very satisfied.
What pleased Chu Chen the most was that his younger brother Pengju was quite happy because of his visit to the Tang Mansion these few days, and felt a faint sense of elation.
This is not to say that the younger brother Pengju was wronged in the Tang family. Tang Boqing not only imparted all his knowledge, but also intended to marry his daughter to his younger brother. Naturally, he regarded him as his own. It's just that the Tang family has a big business, and it is inevitable that idlers gossip.
However, with the arrival of the great supernatural monk Chu Chen, the gossip in the Tang mansion disappeared overnight.
Little brother Pengju was born in Sandingjia Tanhualang, and there is an elder brother of a monk with great supernatural powers in his family. No matter his family background or his own talents and learning, he is worthy of being the jewel in the palm of the Tang family.
Things in the world are never smooth sailing.
The little brother Pengju's happy event went smoothly, but the evil disaster in Zhongzhou did not go so smoothly.
It has been three days since the "Blood Rain Case" was reported. The real Yulou immediately reported the case to Emperor Lingwei and Mr. Mingjing.
On the one hand, to track down the source of the disaster and wipe out the dark devil, on the other hand, to recruit Taoist masters who are proficient in medical skills to treat the people who were attacked by the blood rain, a two-pronged approach.
It has to be said that the first measures taken by the Immortal Court of the Celestial Dynasty were very timely, but unfortunately, no obvious progress has been made in both aspects.
Neither did they find out the dark devil, nor did the Taoist doctors, witch doctors and other senior experts who were proficient in medical arts send out the "blood mist power" in the people's bodies, and they suffered successive setbacks.
In this way, things get tricky.
The dormant "blood mist power" in the people's bodies has become a big hidden danger. Once the tide of evil qi suddenly becomes more intense, the "blood mist power" is likely to be nourished, and tens of thousands of people will be wiped out overnight. The surname turned into a monster, causing unimaginable damage and impacting the entire Central Province.
Even in the imperial capital, there may be a phenomenon of "demons raging" for a while.
This is a difficult matter in normal times, not to mention, it is now the critical moment when the enthronement ceremony is held and the final performance appraisal of the last imperial court.
Once there is a large-scale outbreak of demon disasters in the imperial capital of Zhongzhou, the heavenly messengers from the upper realm will see clearly and clearly.
No matter how good they did in the previous forty years, it was useless, and the final performance evaluation was not much better.
Many people could have been conferred gods and ascended to heaven and earth by virtue of their meritorious deeds. After this incident, I am afraid that everything will come to naught, and many years of hard work will be in vain.
For a while, the atmosphere in the entire imperial capital became extremely heavy, and a dark cloud hung over the capital.
"Brother, something really happened. The devil can't be found, and the power of blood mist in the rain-drenched people can't be pulled out."
Chen Pengju came back from inquiring about the news outside, looking anxious and worried.
"My husband said that if the evil disaster really breaks out and ruins the enthronement ceremony, the entire Celestial Dynasty will be in turmoil."
Chu Chen nodded slightly.
If the two kings were fighting each other, and the younger brother Pengju's master Tang Boqing was the governor of the state, he would really be caught in a whirlpool, and some people would have a headache.
Of course, the bigger problem is that the situation in the Dachang Dynasty has become unstable, and conflicts will continue to spark and erupt in the future, consuming national power internally.
The two brothers understood the seriousness of the matter, and they were silent, and no one spoke.
"Don't worry, I will take action."
Little Guizi held the "Xixiang" he begged for, and inhaled it happily, very comfortable.
"Little ghost, what kind of skill are you doing?" Chen Pengju shook his head, dumbfounded.
Chu Chen heard about it, but became interested, and asked: "Little Guizi, have you given him the energy of disaster these few days?" "Yes."
Seeing that his senior brother was interested, the little ghost boy felt that he was valued, and he became energetic. He seemed to be pointing the country, and said:
"Senior brother, I have cursed him from morning to night these days. The qi of calamity and catastrophe in his body is much more than before. Maybe he has bad luck, accidentally exposed his identity, and was killed by Xianting Gaogong. When the time comes It's done."
"Little ghost, you still have this supernatural power?"
Chen Pengju faintly heard the way, and looked quite surprised, as if seeing the little devil for the first time.
Little Guizai proudly raised his chest: "That is!"
Chu Chen encouraged the little ghost with a smile: "That's right, little ghost, go back and continue to make meritorious deeds, strive for great merit, and the senior brother will be rewarded.
"okay!"
When the little ghost boy heard that there was a big reward, his eyes lit up, he even put down the incense burner for the time being, found a corner, took out its small book, and muttered something.
Chen Pengju saw this scene and found it very interesting: "Brother, the little devil is getting stronger and stronger, and he has the ability to mediate disasters. I really didn't expect it."
「The little devil’s talent is already good.」
Chu Chen agreed, then thought of something, and said:
"Little brother, I asked you to help me find out about Xuanwu Lingshi, Suzaku Lingshi, Sun Moon Jingshi, do you have an idea?"
When Chen Pengju saw his elder brother asking about this matter, he immediately remembered the business that he went out to do today, and immediately said:
"Brother, I have asked my classmates, and it is said that the basalt spirit stone you want is in the treasure house of Xianting recently."
Chu Chen was very surprised: "The Treasure House of the Immortal Court? I checked it a long time ago, and there is no Treasure House of the Immortal Court. Where did you hear about it?"
Hearing this, Chen Pengju said with a smile: "I have a classmate who works as an errand in the household department. I learned from him that a basalt spirit stone has indeed entered the treasure house of the fairy court recently. If there is no ordinary treasure house, it must be in the secret storehouse of the fairy court. .”
Chu Chen nodded slightly.
If it entered the Secret Treasury of Immortal Court, it would not be surprising if he couldn't find it.
The secret library of Xianting is the secret library used by Xianting to reward monks with great supernatural powers. Although the scale is smaller, there are many treasures in it.
Currently, Chu Chen has not received the reward for selecting treasures from the Secret Treasury of the Immortal Court.
If the evil disaster in Zhongzhou is resolved, he and the little ghost boy may have a chance to enter the secret storehouse of the Immortal Court to select treasures if they have contributed to the early warning.
It's a pity that the horoscope has not been written yet. "Little brother, do you have any other clues?" "I really do."
Chen Pengju took a sip of tea, and said again: "I have a good friend who is a student in the Imperial College, and his family is the top three wealthy businessmen in the world. According to him, there is a fair in Zhongzhou recently that has a cultivation level of five grades or above. I heard that There is a Suzaku spirit stone, brother, he gave two invitations, brother, if you are interested, let’s go and have a look.”
As he spoke, Chen Pengju handed the two gold-plated invitations to Chu Chen.
Chu Chen accepted the invitation, his expression was overjoyed: "Great kindness!"
