Eat a Taiyi Taoist

Chapter 176: Going to Yangzhou

Zhang Lanyu is a person who can keep calm. He was first taught a lesson by Huang Junshi, and then became more obedient after being slashed by Dao Xiaofeng. She ignored the sarcasm from Xu Qingjun and Zhuge Li, and Tao Tie's indifference, and continued to do what she had planned. These were the decisions she made under the guidance of heaven and the fate she had foreseen, choosing the best from the best. It will definitely achieve good results! Zhang Lanyu firmly believes this. God’s secret cannot be wrong! How many freaks like Huang Junshi can there be in the world who have transcended the Three Realms and are not within the Five Elements? A strange look flashed across Tao Tie's eyes, barely perceptible. At least the three powerful masters in the cabin did not notice this. The upgrade of [Knowing Everything] is based on the integration of Taiyi Divine Numbers and Tiangang Method [Knowing the Future in Advance]. If all the Tiangang methods and Disha techniques related to the Tianji can be integrated in the future, [Knowing Everything] will still have a very high probability of being upgraded.

Thoroughly understand the truth! It’s just that Tao Tie is in the process of re-cultivation, and his cultivation level is below the ninth rank, so it’s not suitable for him to be distracted and practice more magic, so he puts it aside for the time being. But this does not mean that Tao Tie cannot discover that someone is spying on his secrets. It's not difficult to take advantage of this kind of spy to arrange something like this. Therefore, how can Zhang Lanyu be sure that the revelation she received is correct, and how can she be sure that the fate she foresaw will come true? The Celestial Empire had just finished the battle at the Wu Shi Sea! If fate is set and cannot be overturned, would the Wu Shi Hai be what it is now? If fate is already determined, a person like Taizu would never interfere with fate and would only be modest. Tao Tie thought so in his heart, then smiled and stopped being silent. He asked in a friendly tone, "Where are you three going? Yangzhou?" "Ah." The female martial artist Zhuge Li gave a simple but affirmative answer. Kun Dao Xu Qingjun further added: "To be precise, it is Guangling Prefecture and Kuaiji Prefecture in Yangzhou." "Oh? What a coincidence! I'm also going to Yangzhou, to those two prefectures." Tao Tie was not surprised at all, but he still dragged out his tone: "What is so special about these two palaces that is worthy of two, no... three great masters to gather together?" Xu Qingjun smiled and said, "It's useless to ask us whether it's special or not. You should ask Zhang Lanyu. Zhuge Li and I are just guests." Zhuge Li agreed: "Yes! Yes! We are just accompanying Zhang Lanyu on this journey, hoping to find a way to save her face. The most important thing for a woman is her face. It would be bad if it is really ruined." Tao Tie remained silent. Anyway, he would never say a word or do anything about Zhang Lanyu and the injuries and swelling on her face. Even if she wants to do it, she will only do it if someone asks her to do so, the conditions are right, and it will not damage Sister Dao's dignity. Zhang Lanyu stopped coughing, took a deep breath, and said, "Little Sword Fairy, I don't have any ill will towards you. I came to you this time just to provide you with some help, so as to seek the forgiveness of Fairy Nihuang." "is it?"

Tao Tie declined to comment and did not ask what kind of help was available. As the saying goes, listen to what he says and watch what he does. This is even more true when dealing with those who are good at using the laws of heaven and those who are good at using the laws of heaven to govern the world. Because in the mouths of this kind of people, the same words can always have different interpretations, and they can all be self-consistent. So if you believe what this kind of people say, you are definitely digging a hole for yourself. Tao Tie completely understood this truth after gradually mastering the Tianji Fa and after the emotional tribulation with Senior Sister Dao. Tao Tie was so sure of this enlightenment because his teacher had told him several times not to be superstitious about heaven's secrets. As a person who can go to heaven whenever he wants, the teacher is naturally the authority among authorities. If you don’t trust the teacher, who should you trust? Do you believe in the great master Zhang Lanyu, Master Tianji, who was chopped into this state by Sister Dao’s sword? Tao Tie felt that if he really did this, the teacher would probably be so angry that he would drop a sword from the sky and stab this stupid disciple to death! Zhang Lanyu could see Tao Tie's disdain, and said calmly: "Many people in Yangzhou believe in the secrets of heaven, especially those in Guangling and Kuaiji. I have a little reputation in Yangzhou, so if the little sword fairy takes me with him, it will be more convenient no matter what he wants to do." "is it?" Tao Tie gave another perfunctory reply. Perhaps in Zhang Lanyu's opinion, Tao Tie must get off at Yangzhou on this trip. But in fact, Tao Tie can turn back to the capital or go to the southwest now. The princess asked Tao Tie to visit Yangzhou, Guangling Prefecture and Kuaiji Prefecture, and Qinhuai River. Firstly, she wanted to tell Tao Tie that her original intention had not changed. If she didn't believe him, she could go and see. Secondly, I wanted to give Tao Tie some time to relax. In the battle of Wu Shi Sea, no matter whether they were the 100 and 70 Prideful Ones, their followers, or the Ping Hai Guards, except for those soldiers who sacrificed their lives, no one suffered greater damage than Tao Tie. The shaking and shock in one's heart of Tao cannot be resolved by simply chopping off an evil corpse. It also needs to be wiped constantly to prevent dust from sticking. The eldest princess believed that the most effective way to soothe Tao Tiedao's heart was to take a look at the prosperity and peace in the Celestial Empire. Tao Tie also thought so, so he gladly accepted the arrangement of the eldest princess. Zhang Lanyu, from what she had glimpsed, found out that Tao Tie followed the eldest princess's arrangement and went to Yangzhou. This trip to Yangzhou is on official business. The purpose is to verify the follow-up of the Hua'e Building case. A slight difference is a thousand miles away. Zhang Lanyu is confused as the person involved, while Xu Qingjun and Zhuge Li are clear-headed as bystanders. Seeing that Zhang Lanyu still wanted to impress Tao Tie by showing her own value, Zhuge Li sighed, interrupted Zhang Lanyu, and said to Tao Tie very seriously: "I have some friendship with Mr. Qiu. Can you give me a chance for Mr. Qiu's sake?" Tao Tie shook his head without hesitation: "Mr. Qiu is lazy and doesn't care about worldly affairs. He only wants to take care of his old age. If he knew that I was acting outside and was concerned about his face, he would blame me and scold me. He would never feel relieved, but would only think that I was causing trouble for him."

After hearing this, Zhuge Li was speechless. This is indeed Mr. Qiu’s personality. She didn't think the problem through enough. Zhang Lanyu looked at Zhuge Li in astonishment, not quite understanding why Zhuge Li would suddenly try to use his connections and reputation to plead for her. Something even more shocking happened right after that. Xu Qingjun said solemnly: "Fellow Daoist Tao, I am the current leader of Taiyi Sect. On behalf of Taiyi Sect, I invite you to be my guest. Please give me some face and help me." Taiyi Sect! Tao Tie's cultivation, Taiyi body refining technique, Taiyi soul refining technique, Taiyi Sect's basic spells, Taiyi Divine Numbers, all came from Taiyi Sect! Tao Tie was really shocked to find out that Kun Dao Xu Qingjun was the walking master of this generation of Taiyi Sect. Moreover, he was willing to use his status as a walking official of Taiyi Sect to plead for Zhang Lanyu, the Master of Tianji. It was obvious that he did this not out of personal friendship, but based on the interests of the sect. Then the problem is coming. Why is Zhang Lanyu, who calls himself Master Tianji but actually cannot see the secrets of heaven, so important to Taiyi Sect even though he is a person with great supernatural powers? There is obviously a secret hidden in it. However, Tao Tie was not interested in this, he was just a little annoyed. I just wanted to relax, but I encountered this matter. It's so long-winded and not very pleasant. Tao Tie exhaled from his nose and sighed, "I can take action to stop the sword energy, but I don't want to go with you. I wonder if you agree to this condition." Zhuge Li said without hesitation: "No problem. I was supposed to be in the Icefield Demon Realm anyway. If I go there now, maybe I can catch a few battles." Xu Qingjun didn't care either: "If fate allows, Daoist Tao will come to visit our Taiyi Sect. Taiyi Sect won't force you." Now the only thing left is the answer from the person involved, Master Tianji Zhang Lanyu. Agree or not, it was a simple choice, but Zhang Lanyu hesitated and was hesitant. Seeing this, Tao Tie slowly closed his eyes. At this moment, he decided not to get involved in the feud between Zhang Lanyu and Senior Sister Dao. As for going to Yangzhou with the three great masters, Tao Tie didn't care. If he wanted to follow them, he could follow them. Anyway, he needs to rebuild it now, which will take time and requires patience. But the time of every great master is extremely precious. Instead of wasting so much time following Tao Tie around Yangzhou, you might as well do something more! "Ugh!" Zhuge Li sighed. "Ugh!" Xu Qingjun also sighed.

The two men moved at the same time, and left the boat, going to an unknown place. Zhang Lanyu stayed and refused to leave, having made up his mind. Tao Tie ignored him and took a nap. The boat swayed and drifted slowly on the wide canal. The canal is still bustling at night. There are a large number of ships on the move, including passenger ships, cargo ships, large ships, small ships, downstream and upstream. Each boat had torches or other means of lighting. Some people with high cultivation cannot stand the slow speed of shipping, so they cross the river on a reed or fly across the river, which is also a unique sight. With so many ships and such bustling shipping, Tao Tie had a different understanding of tranquility and peace. The next day, purple air came from the east. After the boat had been sailing all night, the boatman was tired, so he stopped at a ferry and rested for most of the day. Tao Tie was not in a hurry. He enthusiastically took Tan Jinxuan, Mo Yuhan, Chu Yingying and Xiaoqian ashore to drink porridge. "Boss, five bowls of fish porridge, please." "Okay, wait a minute." Fish fillet porridge is not a local specialty, but it came from Yuezhou. It is blended with local flavors and has a unique taste. "The fish porridge is here, enjoy your meal." Soon, five bowls of fish porridge were served and placed in front of the group. "Of all things in the world, delicious food is not to be wasted. Come, drink the porridge while it's hot, don't waste the taste." Tao Tie greeted him and then started drinking his porridge first. I had to stop after just a few sips. There was a young man who might have just gone out to travel the world, standing under a willow tree not far away, staring straight at his ghost wife Xiaoqian. Obviously, this young man with supernatural eyes saw through Xiaoqian's ghost body. Tao Tie put down the bowl and waved to the young man. The young man hesitated for a moment before walking over. "My name is Tao Tie. It's fate that we meet. Why don't we sit down and have a bowl of fish porridge together?" Tao Tie said politely. After a pause, he emphasized, "It's my treat." The young man bit his lip, and after thinking for a while, he agreed: "Okay."

As he said that, he sat down opposite Tao Tie and asked bluntly, "Why did you bring the female ghost with you? Don't you know about the ban promoted by the princess?" Tao Tie did not answer, but just tilted his head to signal Tan Jinxuan, then greeted the shopkeeper and brought another bowl of fish porridge. "Xiao Qian is my wife, we are married in a formal ceremony with official documents." Tan Jinxuan understood and took out the document he had been carrying with him from his arms and showed it to the young man. The young man then noticed that Xiaoqian was wearing a bracelet on her left wrist. This is a certificate jointly issued by the county governments, the Department of Immortals and Gods, and the City God and the underworld, similar to a certificate for distinguishing good from evil. But it is more difficult to obtain than the Good Demon Certificate. The young man came back to his senses, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You... don't you want to cover up? Some people like me in the martial arts world, some demon hunters, as well as local government offices and immortal gods, encounter this... this girl's ghost body, and they will eventually have the urge to attack directly. It would be bad if they started fighting." Tao Tie smiled. Mo Yuhan and Chu Yingying also smiled. Even though Tao Tie is in the process of cultivation and currently has only ninth-grade magical power and the Taiyi Mysterious Pearl has become an empty shell, people would think that Tao Tie's combat power has declined to the point where he can't even lift the sword. If a fight really breaks out, even veteran masters like Xu Qingjun and Zhuge Li may not dare to say that they will definitely win. Tao Tie suddenly thought of his teacher's series of deeds and how his reputation had grown little by little. “So this is what reconstruction is.” I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, feeling infinite emotion. Tan Jinxuan did not laugh, but thought carefully about what the young man said, then stood up and bowed solemnly, saying thank you: "Thank you for your enlightenment, Tan Jinxuan is very grateful." However, Tan Jinxuan believed that not being afraid of a fight was one thing, but causing trouble for Lord Tao by not covering up for Xiaoqian was another. After thanking her, Tan Jinxuan gave Xiaoqian a wink. Xiaoqian understood the meaning, and with a thought, she activated a magical weapon that she had always carried with her. The whole person's figure changed hazily. Soon, it was difficult for ordinary people to see through Xiaoqian's ghost body. The shopkeeper then brought a bowl of fish porridge and placed it in front of the young man. "Young man, drink the porridge while it's hot, drink the porridge while it's hot." Tao Tie gave him a warm welcome and didn't want to talk about trivial matters. He was completely immersed in the romantic feeling of meeting someone by chance. The young man could not refuse Tao Tie's enthusiasm and lowered his head to drink the porridge. This fish porridge is indeed delicious. After drinking a few sips, the young man was immersed in the delicious taste. When he or she raised his or her head, Tao Tie and his companions had left silently. The sunlight shone over and fell on a string of copper coins on the table, reflecting colorful light.

The light fell on the young man, as if it was covering him with a layer of rosy clouds. The wisps of black air were completely annihilated by the five-colored light. The young man had an expression that seemed like laughing and crying on his face. He lowered his head and took a sip of the fish porridge. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, and he sighed, "Finally!" As soon as he finished speaking, the young man disappeared from the world and entered the cycle of reincarnation. Only a silk handkerchief was left there, giving off a strong smell of worldly things. The wind blows, dispersing the smell of dust, and also dispersing the misfortunes of the young man who has entered the cycle of reincarnation. It turns out that the young hero is not a young hero, but a female ghost who was sent back to her hometown from Hua'e Tower. I don't know what kind of circumstances led to this. Tao Tie suddenly had different expectations for his trip to Yangzhou. It is March in the month of fireworks, which is the best time to visit Yangzhou. "It would be nice if there was a crane."
