'Brother Changshou?'
Ao Yi immediately looked around, but he could not find Li Changshou.
He looked at the stone statue in front of him, and the shock in his heart was even greater.
'Could it be that Brother Changshou has already begun to walk the path of becoming a god through incense offerings before he has even become an immortal? Is he sending a voice transmission to me through the statue?!'
However, as if he had seen through Ao Yi's thoughts, Li Changshou chuckled …
"Brother Yi, there's no need to say anything for now. The cause and effect of this matter are complicated. It's difficult to explain it clearly in a short period of time.
I'm here now. The statue's manifestation is just a trick.
"The last time we talked, I learned that you are very worried about the Dragons' current predicament. Recently, I have also thought of some countermeasures for you.
"If you trust me, please let the Immortal Flood Dragon troops of the South Ocean Dragon Palace temporarily retreat to the South Ocean. Brother Yi, wait here for a while.
"After I manifest and hold this celebration, I will meet you again. Is that okay?"
Ao Yi's expression changed slightly as he nodded calmly.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard Li Changshou send a voice transmission. "There's something that I need your help with …"
And so on and so forth.
Li Changshou sent a voice transmission and Ao Yi quickly nodded.
Ao Yi shouted softly, but a dragon roar sounded in the sky!
In an instant, rays of light filled the sky and clouds appeared!
Ao Yi revealed his thousand-feet-long dragon body and nodded at the Sea God statue. His slender figure swayed gently and flew into the sky. The scene was spectacular.
The burly men of Xiong Village below, as well as the disciples there, stared blankly …
The azure dragon circled twice in the sky and slowly flew back to the front of the Immortal Flood Dragon troops, transforming into the elegant young man.
"Second Brother!"
Ao Mou rolled up his sleeves and immediately went forward.
"Second Brother, I've already sent someone back to deploy troops. Today, we'll flatten the South Sea God Sect!
Smash their South Sea Sea God Temple! "
"No." Ao Yi frowned. "Leave this matter to me. Bring the troops back to the surface of the sea. Don't hurt mortals and increase negative karma."
Ao Mou frowned slightly. "Second Brother, we …"
This guy leaned close to Ao Yi, lowered his head and muttered, "Aren't we too embarrassing?"
"Is your face more important or your life more important?"
Ao Yi said calmly, "We shouldn't offend people if we can.
I'm not talking about living beings. "
Humans, not living creatures? That was …
Ren School?!
Ao Mou had a look of understanding as he stared at the Sea God statue. "Second Brother, this is …!"
"Don't say too much. Go first, I will handle this matter properly."
Ao Yi raised his hand and patted Ao Mou's arm. "If there's a chance later, I'll introduce you to an amazing person."
Ao Mou immediately understood and smiled.
"Got it. Second Brother, you're busy here.
I'll explain to Fairy Hanzhi that you have important matters to attend to here.
Later, I'll also bring an amazing person … No, I'll bring two! "
After saying that, Ao Mou winked and laughed out loud. He waved his sleeve and said with an imposing manner, "Retreat."
The Immortal Flood Dragon troops brought the injured and the black cloud immediately flew towards the South Ocean.
Ao Yi rode a cloud and flew towards the forest not far away. He did not care about the mortals' kowtows and gazes.
Although Ao Yi could sense that there was something wrong with his conversation with Ao Mou, he could not be bothered to care about such trivial matters at the moment.
Ao Yi was very interested in the two sentences that Li Changshou mentioned.
"The Dragons' current predicament."
"The Sea God Sect was not established by me."
The first sentence made Ao Yi unable to leave that place at all. He wanted to ask Li Changshou about that matter and see if Li Changshou could give him some inspiration.
The second sentence made Ao Yi's thoughts run wild …
If the Sea God Sect was not established by Brother Changshou, who else could it be?
Ao Yi had long known that the Dao Sect, the Western Sect, the great sects, the Great Immortal Sects, and various experts had been plotting for a long time.
On the way there, Ao Yi had also heard from Immortal Roshi that the South Sea God Sect had developed to a small scale in just a few years. It was really rare …
Could it be that the experts of Ren School are plotting this?
But why does Brother Changshou have to appear?
In the forest, Ao Yi fell into deep thought. At the same time, he observed the situation of the Sea God's manifestation.
At that moment, Ao Yi did not know that he had already fallen into the trap that Li Changshou had thrown out.
If he wanted to deceive someone …
It was not accurate to say that he was "deceiving". After all, Li Changshou was a serious disciple of the Dao Sect. He was upright and pure. Apart from the fact that he liked to hide some trump cards, he was not an evil person by nature.
To be precise, it should be:
If you want to deceive a person, what do you have to do first?
The first step was to make that person interested in what he had to say. Keeping the other party was the beginning of everything.
Li Changshou had already carried out the second step just now. He had to give Ao Yi some hints and give Ao Yi enough room to imagine so that Ao Yi could think on his own.
Later, Li Changshou would choose the next step based on Ao Yi's reaction …
According to Li Changshou, it was on par with the Steadiness Sutra and was considered one of the teaching books for Junior Sister Ling'e. It could be called the Three Treasures of Steadiness by Xiao Qiong Mount.
The third step could be to loosen the reins only to grasp them better, to advance by retreating, or to take advantage of the situation …
In short, if Ao Yi chose to stay there, he would have one foot in the quagmire.
Li Changshou deduced that his chances of surviving this calamity had increased by two to three points!
After stabilizing Ao Yi, the next step was to take care of Xiong Village.
…
The statue emitted an immortal light from the sky and slowly landed on the ground. Be it the burly men of Xiong Village or the disciples, they were all kowtowing.
A phantom flew out of the statue. Its face was blurry, and its body seemed to be condensed from light.
That was actually one of Li Changshou's trump cards. It was the "Flying Feather Substitution Technique" that he used to escape. In an instant, he could create three fake bodies that were exactly the same as him.
The fake body was condensed from immortal power and could be condensed directly in the stone statue.
However, he did not expect that Li Changshou would use this escape technique here today …
However, it was fine. Li Changshou had a few complete escape techniques.
"Escape techniques are just the basics. These" small tricks "to adapt to the situation are actually equally important."
The fake body spoke slowly, and its voice spread throughout the mountains and wilderness. Tens of thousands of mortals were silent. They knelt on the ground and listened quietly.
"I have manifested my True Spirit and created good fortune for all of you.
I am diligent, thrifty, friendly, and protective of the old and the young. I am not afraid of difficulties to obtain lucky results.
Today, I will teach the teachings of the Sea God Sect. All of you must always remember to be a good person and conform to the world … "
At that moment, Li Changshou sorted out the teachings of the Sea God Sect that he had heard in the past few days and briefly explained it in three words. He also mixed some of his Steadiness Sutra into it …
While the paper effigy hidden under the statue was reciting the sutra, another paper effigy had already returned.
Li Changshou secretly observed the reactions of the people of Xiong Village. He realized that most of the burly men of Xiong Village were kneeling on the ground in awe.
However, the old village chief and the few Divine Envoys had complicated expressions on their faces. They knelt there in confusion.
Why, is there really a Sea God?
"Hmph!"
The few of them suddenly heard a cold snort. They received a voice transmission from another paper effigy of Li Changshou.
Li Changshou said,
"Back then, when I was patrolling the sea, I was picked up by you from the carriage at the bottom of the sea. You saw my true appearance.
Since you know that I am the Sea God, you even helped me build a temple in the South Ocean.
Why, I have personally appeared. Why are you kneeling and not bowing? "
The old village chief frowned. Just as he was about to gesture to the few of them to kowtow …
Several Great Divine Envoys on the side suddenly rolled their eyes, and their figures slowly lay down on the ground in disorder.
The old village chief was shocked.
Li Changshou's voice entered the old village chief's ears. "I will take their souls and be punished for a few days. They will wake up in a few days.
When the time comes, you can ask them if they remember anything. "
Actually, it was just some Soft Immortal Dispersers. Li Changshou had added some weight.
The old village chief trembled a few times, and his Adam's apple trembled. Li Changshou's voice transmission kept entering his ears like a demonic voice …
"Do you really think that I can't do anything to you just because you have some Magi bloodline in your bodies?
However, on account of my old relationship with your ancestors, I have never cared about the matter of you using my name to amass wealth.
Did your ancestor pass down a warning to you not to go out and walk around? Did he tell you to drag out an ignoble existence in that corner?
Did they also pass down a precept that you should not marry more women from outside the village and that women can find husbands but not marry outside?
Is there a special admonition for every master of a stronghold, telling them to behave themselves and not to cause trouble?
And what have you done all these years? "
The old village chief's entire body was covered in cold sweat, and his body trembled even more violently. His pupils were a little dilated.
The Sea God is really, really …
Every 'no' was like a heavy burden, pressing down on the old village chief's back, causing him to be constantly pressed down, constantly pressed down.
The voice appeared in his heart again.
"Do you still want to continue existing in Xiong Village?
If not, I'll just wipe you out so that you won't tarnish the reputation of your ancestors. "
"Yes, yes!"
The old village chief hurriedly shouted and looked up at the statue. However, he happened to see the image of the statue preaching.
The latter happened to lower his eyes and looked down at the same time.
At that moment, it was as if the statue had come to life, and its eyes were filled with coldness.
The old village chief was ultimately just a "mortal". At that moment, the defenses in his heart completely collapsed. He prostrated on the ground and kept kowtowing, tears flowing down his face …
"Sea God, punish me! Just punish me!
I'm greedy, I'm greedy!
I was the one who came up with this idea. Everyone in our village listens to me! "
"Since that's the case, your soul will also come over for a few days to be punished."
Li Changshou snorted coldly again, and a wisp of incapacitating agent entered the old village chief's nose. The old man instantly fell to the ground.
Coincidentally, the figure of the Sea God, who had just finished preaching, slowly dissipated on the statue.
A voice transmission entered the hearts of the rest of the people in Xiong Village.
"Continue the celebration. Maintain order here. Don't let anyone get injured.
The High Priest has been greedy for money for a long time, but fortunately, he did not make a huge mistake.
"Today, I will punish him slightly and bring his soul back to be punished. He will wake up in a few days.
"Since you respect me, the Sea God, in the future, you should also create all living beings and understand the principles of ignorance. Don't do dirty things. Shoulder the responsibility of the Divine Envoys and protect all the believers!"
The voice gradually faded, and the light on the statue dissipated at the same time …
The burly men of Xiong Village trembled. They looked at the High Priest and the Great Divine Envoy who were lying at the feet of the statue and did not dare to go forward to help them up.
Indeed, the village chief was too greedy. He was punished by the Sea God …
When the believers saw this, they cheered and chanted the heroic name of the Sea God.
The Sea God Celebration continued. The believers were unprecedentedly excited. They took turns to offer incense and pray for the Sea God.
Li Changshou pinched his fingers and calculated. His merit from incense offerings …
It was rapidly moving.
…
Ao Yi sat cross-legged in the empty space in the forest and pondered quietly. He had just heard the teachings of the Sea God Sect. He felt even more admiration for Brother Changshou.
Not far away, hundreds of thousands of humans continued to celebrate. Ao Yi stared at the rising clouds of merit with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Once upon a time, the Dragons were like that too …
"Brother Yi?"
A voice came from the side. Ao Yi hurriedly stood up and saw a middle-aged Daoist walking over.
The Daoist smiled and recited a poem that the two of them had read the last time they met. Ao Yi could also see that he was using a concealment technique and immediately understood something.
Ao Yi carefully sensed that the Daoist was still at the eighth stage of the Void Return realm. There was no doubt about his identity.
He was a disciple of the Duxian Gate of Ren School, Li Changshou.
Li Changshou bowed and said, "I've embarrassed myself, Brother Yi."
"Brother Changshou, you're being too polite." Ao Yi cupped his fists and bowed. He then strolled with Li Changshou.
At that moment, Li Changshou had already observed Ao Yi's reaction and came to a conclusion. He knew which "third step" he should choose next.
Li Changshou looked at Ao Yi and set up a simple soundproof barrier around the two of them. He said seriously, "Brother Yi, what do you think of the Southern Sea God Sect?"
Ao Yi nodded slowly and said, "The teachings teach people to do good. It's not just a sect that plunder incense offerings. It's meaningful."
Li Changshou smiled, as if he had expected his answer.
Ao Yi could not help but lower his voice and ask, "Brother Changshou, can you tell me the truth?
What exactly is the Sea God Sect … "
Li Changshou shook his head and pointed above, then at his mouth, and then at the ground.
Ao Yi did not seem to understand. In a daze, he suddenly understood something.
It's indeed as I thought. Brother Changshou is just a person who has been pushed to the front. It's the experts of Ren School who are collecting incense offerings and merit.
Li Changshou smiled again and sighed. "Those Divine Envoys just now caused some damage to the Dragon Palace's immortal soldiers. I really feel bad."
Ao Yi was stunned. Then, he thought of something.
It's not just the experts of Ren School. There's also the Magi behind this!
A certain Sea God thought, We didn't say anything.
Ao Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry. This is just a small matter. I'll just remind them later."
Ao Yi looked up at "Li Changshou" beside him and sighed.
"Brother Changshou just asked me if I knew about the Dragons' predicament. How much do you know, Brother Changshou?"
Li Changshou sighed and said, "There are no immediate worries outside, but there are ancient calamities.
"There are no immediate worries on the outside, but there is an ancient calamity. Living in a drunken stupor, the Sea Eye can't hold on.
Brother Yi, I roughly know what you have done, but it's very difficult for you to turn the situation around alone. "
Li Changshou paused and secretly observed Ao Yi's gaze.
Just now, he had used a series of tricks, such as "deliberately leaving blank", "hinting at something", "letting you imagine", "falling into a trap" …
However, the highest realm of deception was to not speak and let the other party take the initiative to make the request that he wanted.
That way, karma could be transferred.
In the end, Ao Yi might even be grateful to him and say, "Thank you, Brother Changshou, for your advice."
