In the Heavens

Chapter 387 Fishing in Troubled Waters

Watching Di Xin mess around, Li Mu didn't intend to intervene. I am used to the ups and downs of dynastic change, Li Mu no longer cares about the dynastic change in the human world.

Regardless of Di Xin's performance, Da Shang must die. Who let Dashang and Jiejiao be bound together?

It's not a matter of 1+1=2 to change human nature and kill immortals.

After the two phases are superimposed, the karma accumulated in the past will explode together, and those who do not have the treasure to suppress their energy will inevitably be robbed.

Saints and great religions must be robbed, let alone human dynasties.

Of course, it was a disaster for the human dynasty, but it was an opportunity for Di Xin himself.

Being able to become a star god with a mortal body can be called reaching the sky in one step. After so many years of development, the Human King has long been worthless.

Unless you have made a great contribution to the human race, you can hope to ascend to Huoyun Cave, and the rest can only go to the six reincarnations.

Glancing at Ji Chang in prison, Li Mu threw him a jade slip, which contained experience in governing the country.

There is only so much that can be done, if it gets too involved, you will inevitably suffer a disaster under the entanglement of cause and effect, and it is not appropriate for Li Mu to support anyone in his current capacity.

Frankly speaking, Li Mu is more interested in his eldest son Bo Yi Kao than King Wen Ji Chang.

Emperor Ziwei, that is the existence second only to the Heavenly Emperor. Can such a stuffed pie fall on an ordinary person?

Even if Boyi Kao had Ziwei's fate, plus Zhou's royal family's luck bonus, it would not be enough.

In essence, Honghuang is not a place to talk about fairness, and it is full of black-box operations everywhere.

Randomly put out the position of the Six Royals, not only the disciples of the saints flock to it, but also the quasi-sages will squeeze their heads.

As a first-class career position in the world, Emperor Ziwei is not easy to be canonized, and heaven will not recognize it without enough merit.

Maybe saints can be canonized by force, but the required merits and energy have to be deducted from themselves, and they can't perform their duties normally after they take the position, and the karma of karma has to be borne by the canonized person.

After sizing up Bo Yi Kao from a distance, but seeing nothing, Li Mu immediately stopped thinking about finding out.

Curiosity killed the cat, some things are better not to be serious.

The killing of immortals has begun, and Chaoge, as the center of the storm, is obviously not a place to stay for a long time. After a short stay, Li Mu has already entered Wuguanzhuang.

Not participating in the killing does not mean doing nothing.

Tianyan fourty-nine, escape one.

Great calamity is often accompanied by great opportunity, whether you can grasp it or not depends on yourself.

...

"This is the fruit of life that the boy just picked, fellow Daoist Taihua, please appreciate it!"

Zhen Yuanzi said heartily.

Judging from the tone of voice, the two seem to be best friends, but in fact, they only met once, so there is no friendship at all.

However, friendships come out, as long as there are common interests, strangers can quickly become friends.

Picking up a life fruit, Li Mu realized that there was something in it.

"Three thousand years to bloom, three thousand years to bear fruit, three thousand years to ripen, and one to eat can live forty-seven thousand years." These are not the true effects of the mango fruit.

As the fruit of the best innate spiritual root, if it only has the effect of prolonging life, it will not leave a great name in the prehistoric world.

In Li Mu's view, compared to its effect on prolonging life, the real value of Life Fruit lies in consolidating the foundation and cultivating vitality, improving cultivation qualifications, and making up for the lack of origin.

Putting the life fruit into his mouth, a cool air spread in Li Mu's body instantly, and he also vaguely felt a slight change in his body, as if the source had been sublimated.

"It's really the best! Zhenyuan Dao is a source of good fortune!"

Li Mu said with emotion.

There is also a hint of envy between the brows, the best innate spiritual roots are enough to make poor ghosts like Li Mu envious and jealous. However, Li Mu's xinxing cultivation base is not bad, and he has no greed.

Although life fruit is good, the effect is the greatest when you eat the first one, and the rest can only satisfy your appetite.

For Li Mu, that's all, and it's not worth his concern.

Of course, this also reflects from the side that Zhen Yuanzi can be a man.

Directly and generously took it out to entertain guests. More than 90% of the great supernatural beings in the prehistoric period have eaten life fruit. With these connections, whoever dares to snatch it will be an outrage.

"Ha ha……"

"Fellow Daoist Taihua, you are being polite! Who can compare with fellow Daoist in terms of deep blessings?"

Zhen Yuanzi said pointedly.

Li Mu has already heard the implication. Compared with all the old antiques in the prehistoric world, he can only be regarded as a junior. To have a cultivation base that is not weaker than everyone at a young age is naturally a blessing.

Instead of continuing to be polite on this issue, Li Mu asked straight to the point: "How much do fellow Taoist Zhenyuan know about this catastrophe?"

While talking, the two of them still didn't forget to block the secret together. This kind of sensitive issue is not suitable for the outside world to know.

"The Taoist ancestor said that the protagonists of this immortal killing are the three religions of the Taoist sect and the human race. Why are fellow Taoists of Taihua so fussy?"

In the seemingly flat tone, there was also a trace of deep fear, which was obviously aimed at Daozu Hongjun.

Created the way of earth immortals, originally Zhen Yuanzi also had the opportunity to form a family of his own, using this as a blueprint to slowly accumulate foundation and prove Hunyuan.

Unexpectedly, Patriarch Hongjun was born in the sky, the strength gap between the two sides is too great, the way of earth immortal can only be sheltered under the Tao of Taoism.

From this point of view, Zhen Yuanzi and Li Mu's situation is similar, they are both unlucky bastards who were forced to join the group due to the general situation, and they are in an extremely embarrassing position in the Xuanmen.

The only difference is that Li Mu still has the support of human monks behind him, but Zhen Yuanzi is almost alone.

"Taihua naturally dare not disagree with Dao Patriarch's words. However, it is hard to say how this Conferred God Killing Tribulation will be carried out.

Maybe all the saints will end in person. Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan is well-informed, so he should have some understanding of the strength of the saints.

Since the destruction of the Tianzhu, the prehistoric world has been in a state of recovery, and the current prehistoric world cannot stand the toss.

If a few saints fired a real fire and accidentally smashed the world to pieces, it would become [saints fight, bringing disaster to the common people].

For the sake of all beings in the Three Realms, Pindao felt that our monks should do something. Don't expect to be able to prevent the outbreak of the saint war, you have to find a way to leave some vitality for the prehistoric. "

After hearing Li Mu's words, Zhen Yuanzi's expression suddenly became tense. As the ancestor of the earth immortal, if the prehistoric world collapses, his path will become more and more difficult.

When it comes to their own avenue, no one can take it lightly. If possible, he wished to eliminate this catastrophe immediately.

It is precisely because everyone has common interests that Li Mu came to cooperate with Zhen Yuanzi instead of looking for other great supernatural beings.

"What does Fellow Daoist Taihua want to do?"

Zhen Yuanzi asked expectantly.

"Prepare for a rainy day! Regardless of whether the flood will be broken or not, we can make preparations in advance and set up a large formation in the flood.

If the world collapses, we will take action to urge the large formation to collect the broken world fragments as much as possible, and reorganize the prehistoric world. "

For this plan to be successfully completed, what is indispensable is the book from the ground in the hands of Zhen Yuanzi. People need to work hard, so Li Mu will naturally not hold back on this issue.

Regardless of whether the rupture of the Great Desolation was due to the fate of the sky, or Hongjun's old-fashioned plan, it has nothing to do with Li Mu.

The main purpose of making this plan is to obtain the favor of heaven. As a guy who deals with the Dao of Heaven on a daily basis, Li Mu has a very deep understanding of the Dao of Heaven.

If you want to transcend and prove the way, the way of heaven will inevitably bring catastrophe. It is called a test in the name, but it is actually the time for harvest.

If you want to fish in troubled waters and muddle through, there are only two ways: one is to break through the limit when the Dao of Heaven is weak and when the Dao of Heaven has no time to take care of it.

Or it is to get enough heavenly relatives, so that the heavenly dao thinks they are their own people, so as to reduce the doom they face when they prove the dao.

Originally, in the later stage of the Conferred God Quantity Tribulation, everyone's attention was attracted by the melee of the saints, which was the best time to fish in troubled waters, but Li Mu's current cultivation level is not enough.

If you can't catch up with this wave of opportunities, you can only plan for the future.

After contemplating for a while, and weighing the pros and cons, Zhen Yuanzi said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Taihua, this plan can't be completed with just you and me, right?"

This is a fact, and it is not an easy task to spread the formation all over the prehistoric region.

Even if the formation is arranged, it cannot be driven by two people. If you want to recover the fragments of the world that are flying in all directions, even the Six Saints will find it difficult to make a move.

"What Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan said is true, but the two of us alone can't complete it. But the prehistoric is everyone's prehistoric, and when it comes to the crisis, all the great powers will take action.

All we need to do is to complete the deployment of the formation before the massacre erupts.

At the last moment, I will just open up the formation and let all the great masters take action together. "

Li Mu replied calmly.

If you are not strong enough to eat alone, you can only take it out and share it with everyone.

Compared with turning the tide at the last moment, he only needs to take away the merit of arranging a large formation. In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that Li Mu's deduced formation needed to use the Earth Book as the eye of the formation, he wouldn't even bother to inform Zhen Yuanzi.

...

While the two were working hard for the safety of the prehistoric world, the situation in the world has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Ji Chang, who had escaped from Chaoge, also carried out reforms after returning to Xiqi.

It's just that King Wen's reforms were not as extreme as Di Xin's. In many cases, in order to reduce hatred, Emperor Xin was used as a shield, euphemistically called: Executing Emperor Shang's edict.

For a while, Xiqi became the area where Emperor Xin's reform decree was best implemented. Of course, it is still necessary to add private goods. The decrees that seem to be similar, in fact, have changed a lot in Xiqi.

Naturally, there are many troubles, but this is a mythical world after all, and reforms aimed at ordinary people cannot catch the eyes of powerful people.

With the support of the forces in the practice world, the nobles whose interests have been damaged cannot make a big wave at all.

There is no way for Dashang to compare in this respect. Although he has received the support of Jiejiao, Jiejiao's disciples are not suitable for this kind of work!

In fact, Ji Chang's reform would not have been able to proceed without the support of the martial arts lineage, relying solely on the power of teaching.

After the completion of a series of political reforms, Xiqi does not seem to have changed much, but its fiscal and taxation and military mobilization capabilities have increased several times.

The only problem is that because of Li Mu's intrusion, many of Xiqi's reforms were completed under the auspices of Ji Chang, and the famous Jiang Taigong did not contribute so much to it.

In the era of King Wen, his prestige was suppressed, and in the era of King Wu, Jiang Ziya didn't have the power to make a promise, and he didn't even have that high voice in the imperial court with the teaching lineage.

Of course, this is just a small problem. For the high-ranking immortals, no one would care about the little power of the secular court.

With the death of King Wen, the pace of cutting merchants also kicked off.

Jiang Ziya took the lead: "King Wu, since Emperor Xin succeeded to the throne, he has continued to act against the law, causing the people in the world to live in poverty. There are seven crimes:

1. Emphasize the use of women and despise virtuous ministers;

2. Disregarding human relations, using villains instead of brothers;

3. Not paying attention to sacrifices, acting recklessly, and disrespecting immortals and gods;

4. The militarism is rampant, and the war is everywhere;

..."

Obviously, this grand proclamation was written for the nobles in Chaoge. If you really study it carefully, it's really not very convincing.

After all, Xiqi is actually doing many of the things above.

For example: Use villains and abandon brothers.

If you don't do this, the imperial court is full of Ji's royal family now, how can he have Jiang Ziya's share?

All relatives are reused, and human relations are scruples, but the government is so cold, and no one can guarantee that relatives will be good officials from generation to generation.

But the nobles of the Great Shang would not think so. In the past, the position of the Great Shang Dynasty Hall was reserved for their own family members.

For example, the four important ministers at the beginning of Emperor Xin's accession to the throne, the prime ministers Shang Rong and Ya Bigan were all children of the royal family, and Huang Feihu was also a relative by marriage.

The only exception is Wen Zhong, who is still the representative of Jiejiao in the court, and has a master-student relationship with Di Xin.

The above is like this, and the bottom is not much better. More than half of the civil and military officials can relate to the royal family, and the other half have turned up the family tree, and everyone is also relative.

To sum it up, it is: a relationship household of the Manchu Dynasty.

As a vested interest group, they naturally don't think there is anything wrong with doing so.

With the reform of Emperor Xin, this stable court structure was broken. Except for Wen Zhongshang, who represented Jiejiao, the other three were dead and running, and the power of the nobles in the court was greatly damaged.

Other clauses also cannot be studied in depth. However, the essence of call-to-action is to shout slogans, and it doesn't matter whether they stand up to scrutiny or not.

"Father Xiang, although Emperor Xin is stupid and innocent, he is still a king. If he used his ministers to beat the emperor, wouldn't it be wrong to trap the concubine?"

Ji Fa said impassionedly.

Like a loyal minister, he doesn't want to raise the banner of anti-business. It's a pity that Ji Fa is still too young after all, and his performance is somewhat flawed.

At the very least, I have to scold him to prove that I don't want to be a traitor. After being persuaded by the officials, it will be more perfect to reverse it.

But this is enough, the hatred between Xiqi and Dashang is not a day or two. All the civil and military people present were all staunch businessmen.

"King Wu, you bear the expectations of all the people, so you must not act on your will!"
