In the hut, Ling'e pouted and carefully wiped the water stains on her face with a handkerchief.
Li Changshou smiled apologetically. Then, he frowned and hugged his arms. His immortal senses stared at the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes outside the mountain gate.
What was going on?
That shouldn't be the case.
How was this possible?
This young man, Li Jing, is the commander of Chentang Pass? Madam Yin's husband? San Zha's father? There was a 100% chance that he would be caught empty-handed … cough, there was no such possibility.
Could it be that he would become a god in a few decades?
Something was obviously wrong!
There was still no "Mystic Bird Shang" in the South Continent. From the perspective of mortals, the main target of God-Conferment, the Shang Nation, was nowhere to be found!
Li Changshou had investigated many times. At that time, the mortal world of the South Continent was equivalent to the state of being divided after the end of summer.
Due to the vastness of the South Continent, the level of development was different. Some areas were still "knocked unconscious" by tribal men and women, so the degree of development was different.
Moreover, the order of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation should be:
The first step was for the Jade Emperor to feel that he had been offended by the disciples of the three sects and go to the Dao Ancestor to complain.
In the second step, the Dao Ancestor summoned the Three Pure Ones and asked the three sects to sign the God roll. He used the disciples of the three sects to fill the Deity Position of the Celestial Court.
The third step was to sign the God roll. After a long time, Goddess Nuwa was offended by a poem written by the King of Shang, Di Xin. She wanted to punish the King of Shang and trigger a great calamity.
At that moment, the Lord Sage realized that the Great Tribulation should be in the mortal world of the South Continent. The Chan School adopted the strategy of 'taking in disciples to block the calamity'. Jie School adopted the strategy of 'sealing the island and not leaving'.
Li Changshou had come up with this train of thought no less than a hundred times over the years, and the chances of him making a mistake were extremely small.
Just these steps alone would take more than a few hundred years!
Li Changshou stared at the young man kneeling in front of the mountain gate and could not help but sink into the abyss of contemplation.
Be steady. Don't jump to conclusions yet. I don't have much information at hand.
How do I get more information?
That was simple …
Li Changshou pinched his fingers and calculated, carefully analyzing the memories of his previous life.
After entering the Gold God realm, many of the details in his previous life that he had forgotten could be 'recalled' using the deduction method.
In fact, an old pure Yang like the Great Daoist Master, who had lived for countless years, would also use deductions to recall distant memories.
Soon, Li Changshou extracted a few pieces of information about Li Jing at Chentang Pass during the Great God-Conferment Tribulation from his memories.
"Li Jing, the commander of Chentang Pass, an important general of the Shang Dynasty.
His loyalty and patriotism — he later defected to the enemy on the frontlines, and he was upright and plainspoken — was also occasionally cowardly.
He claimed to have studied Dao techniques for many years, but it was difficult for him to cultivate, so he chose to return to the mortal world and become a general. This contradicted his claim that he had guarded Chentang Pass for generations.
After the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, his physical body was on the rankings. He was the Grand Marshal of the Celestial Court, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li. His eldest and second sons were Jinzha and Muzha. Later, they followed their respective masters, the Heavenly Venerable Manjushri and Daoist Ci Hang, and joined the Western Sect. His third son, Nezha, and Heavenly King Li, served the Jade Emperor. "
Li Changshou pondered for a while and continued to ponder.
Li Jing's most famous story was his break with his third son, Nezha.
As for Nezha, Li Changshou was naturally very familiar with him. He was one of the best bear children in the myths.
In fact, from Li Jing's point of view, Nezha had killed the Dragon Prince and brought disaster to Chentang Pass. He had also accidentally shot the boy of the Goddess of Stone to death. He should have been punished.
At that thought, Li Changshou could not help but let his thoughts wander …
As an ordinary human, it was probably difficult for Li Jing to have any sense of empathy for the reincarnation of the spiritual pearl that his wife had been pregnant with for three and a half years …
Right?
If Li Changshou were to judge, Li Jing was a typical patriarchal person. He did not discipline his children, but he was unwilling to bear the responsibility for the failure of his education.
The biggest culprit behind the tragedy of Nezha cutting off his flesh was actually Perfected Taiyi, who doted on his disciple too much and gave him all the treasures.
After Nezha created the Lotus Flower Treasure, his pursuit of Li Jing seemed to be a rebellion against his father's authority, but in fact, he had gone overboard.
Huh?
There seems to be a little …
When Li Jing was being chased by Nezha, Nezha had stabbed Daoist Randeng with his spear, allowing Li Jing to obtain Daoist Randeng's help.
Randeng had given him an exquisite pagoda. Li Jing had used that treasure to subdue Nezha and later respected Daoist Randeng as his teacher.
Before that, Li Jing had always claimed to be the disciple of Perfected Du 'e of Kunlun Mountain.
Considering that these mortal generals usually liked to boast, they could say that 200,000 troops were 800,000 troops. Could it be …
Li Jing's so-called "disciple of Perfected Du 'e" was to become a disciple of the Duxian Gate?
He cultivated in the Duxian Gate for a period of time and felt that there was no hope of living forever. Then, he returned to the mortal world and prepared to take advantage of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation to ascend to the Heavens and enjoy longevity?
Li Changshou's eyes lit up!
At that moment, he suddenly had a feeling that he had seen through the truth of the myth wrapped in fog!
A more practical question followed …
"Then, what can I use Li Jing to plot against?"
Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to Li Jing, who was kneeling outside the mountain gate.
"Wait patiently for now. I will arrange for you to enter the sect to cultivate later. I hope that you will cultivate diligently and not forget your original intentions today."
Outside the mountain gate, the young man, Li Jing, kowtowed to the mountain gate.
Li Changshou did not look at him. He sat there and pondered.
Ling 'e, who was at the side, wiped her face aggrievedly. When she saw her senior brother shaking his head and nodding, she did not dare to disturb him. She could only sneak away and wash up.
Soon, Li Changshou sorted out his thoughts.
It would be a waste not to use a pawn that was delivered to him!
He and Randeng were already enemies. Naturally, he could not give Randeng a chance to attack. However, he still had to think of a way to obtain Randeng's Exquisite Golden Pagoda.
Li Jing was an important general in the Shang army. His three sons were also outstanding talents, especially Nezha. The potential of his Lotus Flower Treasure Body was endless. Moreover, it was related to the twelve Golden God of Chan School, Perfected Taiyi.
Li Jing's weakness was very obvious. He did not care enough about his son and did not know how to educate him. He used the excuse of being loyal to the emperor and patriotism to hide his shortcomings and regrets.
If he could let Li Jing cultivate at the Duxian Gate later, he could secretly interfere and let the atmosphere of the Duxian Gate's big family influence Li Jing so that he would have a greater sense of family responsibility.
At that moment, Li Changshou thought of how to teach Li Jing, how to quickly make Li Jing a powerful Heaven Immortal, and how to give Li Jing the care of his father.
In fact, Li Changshou had even thought of the plan that he had prepared for Li Jing when he went down the mountain.
Its name …
"Prenatal Education"!
…
A big fish suddenly appeared at the Duxian Gate. Li Changshou, who was originally less concerned about the sect, temporarily shifted his attention back.
Teaching Li Jing well was also more important to the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
During the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, Li Changshou could obtain more opportunities to interfere with the Great Tribulation.
After the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, Li Changshou could build a relationship with the future Grand Marshal of the Celestial Court through the karma of the Duxian Gate period. From there, he could consolidate his position as a powerful official and earn merit more easily.
The Celestial Court did not have any outstanding achievements or suspicions.
With the suppression of the Heavenly Dao and the support of the Dao Ancestor, who could rebel against the Jade Emperor?
In fact, after Li Changshou discovered Li Jing, he was already considering …
After I condense the Merit Gold, I will nurture a set of "reliable people" for the Celestial Court. They will become the right-hand men of the Jade Emperor. I will enter a state of retirement and enjoy my immortal life.
Arrangement was an art that had risen in the modern times of the Primordial World.
It sounded much more beautiful than scheming.
However, Li Changshou quickly realized that it was quite difficult for Li Jing to enter the sect.
Li Jing was first targeted and ridiculed by the other youths who had come to acknowledge him as their master.
Then, Li Jing finished all the rations that he had brought with him. He had been hungry for a few days and almost fainted.
Fortunately, Li Changshou discovered it in time and arranged for an immortal crane to fly over. It brought a bottle of pills to satiate Li Jing's hunger and helped Li Jing solve two problems at once.
The trouble that Li Changshou was facing was to find a master for Li Jing.
It was definitely impossible for him to take in a disciple.
Li Jing had such a huge karma plate. Taking in a disciple would only add to his troubles. If he had to take in a disciple to make arrangements for Li Jing, Li Changshou would rather give up on the "Great Tribulation Handle".
After thinking about it, Li Changshou felt that Elder Wan Linyun was the best candidate.
Elder Wan Linyun was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. In the beginning, he would definitely scare Li Jing to death. However, the more that was the case, the more amiable the elder gradually revealed his side.
Li Jing felt that there was true love in the world!
A father's love was like a mountain, and his love was boundless!
However, Elder Wan Linyun seemed to be in seclusion. He still had to break through the Gold God Tribulation.
Li Changshou pondered for a while and could only eliminate that option.
After thinking about it, he felt that a famous figure like Li Jing in the Three Realms in the future should really invite Perfected Du 'e to take in an in-name disciple.
That way, Li Jing would be able to become an immortal in the Celestial Court in the future. His background and resume would be better.
After hesitating for a few days, it was already close to the grand ceremony of the sect.
Li Changshou suddenly felt a sense of danger …
If he could not settle the matter regarding Li Jing's master, it was very likely that the Lord Sage would issue a decree on the day of the opening ceremony and give him the word "accept"!
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
What should I do?
How can I persuade someone I'm not familiar with to accept a disciple with mediocre aptitude? I still have to give him 100% love like my old father?
There are really no suitable candidates for the people I'm familiar with …
Should I ask the Great Daoist Master for help and invite Perfected Du 'e to the Duxian Gate?
What's the reason?
Could it be that my deduction skills have suddenly improved to the level of the Lord Sage and I can deduce that Li Jing will be an important figure in the future Great Tribulation?
He would most likely be beaten up by the Great Daoist Master and dragged to the Purple Cloud Palace by the Lord Sage to disintegrate his essence soul.
If that doesn't work, I can only let Jiu Wu take over!
However, Jiu Wu could not provide much of a "dignified father" image. He was also taught a lesson by Aunt-Master Jiushi every day …
Could it be that there is no suitable "Li Jing's father" in the huge Duxian Gate?
"Yawn …"
A slight yawn sounded from outside the straw hut. Li Changshou looked up and saw his master riding a cloud towards the back of the mountain. He must be going to check on Aunt-Master Jiu Yushi's cultivation homework.
My master …
Even if he jumped out to make his presence known, he could not take in any more disciples!
Li Changshou stood up and paced around the straw hut, thinking of countermeasures.
That seemed to be a small matter, but it involved a lot of things. Moreover, it was not safe to deal with it.
He pondered carefully and kept deducing. He proposed a possibility and repeatedly deduced it.
This time, there was no flash of inspiration. Li Changshou only deduced according to his own method. When he reached a dead end, he jumped out in time, changed his train of thought, and adjusted his thinking …
First, he directed, then diverged, and then abstract …
Gradually, a clear meridian was held in Li Changshou's hand.
From "How can I make Perfected Du 'e personally come and take me in as a disciple" to "What attractive characteristics does Li Jing have?", Li Changshou suddenly grasped the key point!
Luck!
Just now, Li Jing could make me feel a sudden impulse and make me take a few more glances at him. I even took the initiative to ask him. It must be related to Li Jing's own luck!
How could Li Jing's luck be bad if his body could be on the rankings?
Moreover, he was the future Marshal of the Celestial Court. He was the head of a wealthy family in the Celestial Court!
Soon, Li Changshou decided on a plan. The paper effigy in the Celestial Court also became active and rushed to the Tushita Palace …
An hour later, Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and sat back on the round chair. He looked at the stack of scrolls in front of him and smiled peacefully.
"How can there be so many brilliant plans? However, they are all the results of hard work."
Two days later.
One of Li Changshou's paper effigies returned from the Celestial Court and brought back a treasure pouch.
At that moment, a large number of immortals and mortals stopped outside the Duxian Gate.
Some immortals had sent them to learn skills and were floating in the air.
Those who did not have an immortal sect background would wait on the steps in front of the sect.
After a rough calculation, there were already two to three thousand children and youths. It was much livelier than the previous opening ceremony.
Clearly, in the past two hundred years, the reputation of the Duxian Gate in the five continents had increased greatly.
The sect was also like a mortal celebrating the new year. The worries of the previous batch of disciples leaving the sect had been washed away. The elders and disciples of the various peaks who wanted to take in disciples this time would go to the sect to take a stroll when they had nothing to do.
If they wanted to take a stroll, then so be it, but they didn't want to reveal themselves. It was as if they would be laughed at if they were seen by outsiders.
Li Changshou complained in his heart and called the few people on the Xiao Qiong Mount over to verify it …
He took out a Dharma artifact that looked like a corona and placed it in front of the straw hut. He asked his master, junior sister, Aunt-Master Jiujiu, Aunt-Master Jiu Yushi, and Xiong Lingli to move forward one by one and place their palms on it.
That Dharma artifact was created by the Great Daoist Master. It only had one function, and that was to determine a person's luck.
Li Changshou originally wanted to learn the Qi Gazing Technique, but when he saw that the Great Daoist Master did not have such a treasure, he chuckled and tricked him back.
There were twelve scales engraved on the disc, and twelve colors were engraved. From white to red, to purple and dark purple.
Most of the luck of ordinary human Qi Refinement cultivators was light red to dark red. After all, the human race was now the protagonist of the world and had good luck.
That was the result of his master's test. It was light red.
Jiujiu and Jiu Yushi's luck were about two scales higher than their master's. It was normal.
However, Li Changshou was surprised that Ling 'e's luck could reach a dark red that was close to light purple.
Xiong Lingli placed her hand on it and waited seriously for a while …
"Cousin, cousin?"
Xiong Lingli turned her head weakly and asked softly, "Is this thing broken?"
Li Changshou stared at it carefully for a while and said, "Look, there's a projection too. It's just that it's a little smaller … Don't be sad. You're in the right now, so you won't have bad luck."
Xiong Lingli heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that.
Then, the five of them looked at Li Changshou.
Li Changshou smiled calmly and put away the Dharma artifact. He said, "I'll go look for Jiu Wu first and talk about how to use this thing."
After saying that, he used Earth Escape and did not give them a chance to speak.
Luck was considered a top secret. Even his master and junior sister could not reveal it.
Li Changshou said that he was going to look for Jiuwu, but he turned around and went to the Immortal Du Hall.
Li Jing's plan to become a disciple, as well as his cultivation plan, personality modification plan, and family education training plan, had been steadily arranged by Li Changshou …
It was arranged.
