King of Black Mist
Chapter 277 Asking for Snow
"What's going on?" Emperor Jiajing asked Shao Yuanjie calmly.
"Your Majesty, this person was talking nonsense when he was offering sacrifices to heaven, saying, 'Your Majesty has done evil'."
"Master Zhengyi, don't spit blood!" Li Changzhou stood up.
All the crown ladies and maids’ hearts skipped a beat.
The man had a handsome appearance and a tall and slender figure. The sun on the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month was bright and clear, making him look like a god in the sky.
To be valued by Emperor Jiajing, the alchemist must have acceptable appearance, not to mention his cultivation. Tieguaili and Jigong should not join in the fun.
Anyone standing here looks like a true immortal, and there is no problem in future generations playing the role of Yuanshi Tianzun.
Even so, if we were to choose who looked most like an immortal just based on appearance and temperament, Li Changzhou would definitely get half of the votes.
He is already handsome and has a [divine body]. In a sense, he can be regarded as a true immortal just in terms of physical quality.
Li Changzhou continued: "What I just said was clearly, 'Have your Majesty ever done anything wrong?'"
Emperor Jiajing glanced at Shao Yuanjie. Shao Yuanjie really didn't hear clearly what Li Changzhou had just said. He only heard the words 'what evil did he commit'.
His expression remained unchanged and he bowed: "Your Majesty, I really heard him say, 'Your Majesty has done evil'."
I'll fuck you. Don't say dirty words.
"Take it down." Emperor Jiajing showed no expression.
Li Changzhou began to consider whether he should use a watermelon knife or a pig-butchering knife to cut from the Meridian Gate to the Xuanwu Gate.
"Your Majesty." The sound alone made people's hearts beat faster.
Everyone followed the sound. She had a fluttering purple dress, black hair reaching her waist, a pair of peach blossom eyes, but her eyes were very clear. Her neck was as white as snow, and she had a slim figure. Although she was wearing a veil on her face, she was already stunning. Incredibly beautiful.
"Just now I was sitting next to my husband, and I really heard him say, 'Have your Majesty ever done anything wrong?'"
"You mean I heard it wrong?" Shao Yuan's show was cold and he turned a blind eye to Yaochi's alluring beauty.
"I don't dare." Yaochi smiled sweetly.
Wearing a veil, you can't see her smile, but just by listening to her voice and looking into her eyes, you can be captured by her smile and laughter.
The tens of thousands of people present, except for a few with high cultivation, both men and women, were already attracted to this enchantress and didn't care what Li Changzhou said.
"It's just," Yaochi continued, "You know the nature of fish when you're near the water, and you know the sounds of birds when you're near the mountains. I'm close to my husband, so I can hear them more clearly than a real person."
"Presumptuous!" Dozens of Taoist priests stood up and shouted.
"My master is the Great Master and the Minister of Rites, personally conferred by Long Live. Not to mention this small distance, I can hear it clearly even from the ends of the world!"
"Where did this crooked way come from? Get out of here!"
The sound was like thunder. I don’t know what kind of magic it was. Some of the palace ladies were shocked to the point of numbness all over, as if there was thunder exploding in their ears.
The apprentice is so good at talking. As a master, Shao Yuanjie can easily hear all Li Changzhou's whispers.
This is a competition.
"Can you hear it clearly even from the ends of the world? I would like to see it." Li Changzhou smiled.
The sound was not loud, but the bodies of the dozens of Taoist priests were like willow trees that had been kicked. They were all trembling, and most of them fell back, leaving only a few who could barely stand.
The faces of the Taoist priests present changed.
I originally thought that he was a wild Taoist priest who relied on his appearance to deceive wealth and wealth, but he didn't expect that his magic power was so strong. He could make the true disciples of Longhu Mountain completely weak with just his voice.
Moreover, in the ears of others, Li Changzhou's words had no power, they could only be heard clearly.
It is as simple as roaring like a true disciple of Longhu Mountain, and being able to do what Li Changzhou is like is at least a real person.
Shao Yuanjie's expression remained as usual, and he looked at Emperor Jiajing.
"Your Majesty, no matter what you said, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven and praying for snow has been interrupted. Why don't we let this fellow Taoist who claims to be the descendant of Dongwang Gong come to pray for snow. If he succeeds, he will be exempted from the crime of disturbing the sacrifice. If he fails, he will be executed. .”
Emperor Jiajing has his hands behind his back, wearing a cannon with wide sleeves and a Taoist bun. If it weren't for the majesty of an emperor, he would be a Taoist priest.
"Can."
Everyone looked at Li Changzhou again.
Li Changzhou looked at Yaochi - will it snow?
Yaochi looked at him - you don't know how?
Li Changzhou began to consider whether he should use a watermelon knife or a pig-butchering knife to cut from the Meridian Gate to the Xuanwu Gate.
An eunuch said loudly: "Taoist Master Li, since the beginning of winter this year, there has not been a single snowfall in the capital and several neighboring provinces. If there is no snow in the winter, there will definitely be a locust plague next year. Please cast a spell to save the people of the Ming Dynasty from famine!"
As he spoke, he bent down and saluted.
Li Changzhou glanced at him, summarized the conversation just now, and came up with two pieces of information:
1. Emperor Jiajing completely trusted Shao Yuanjie;
2. The fact that the eunuch came out and said this proved that as long as he had real ability, Emperor Jiajing would naturally put him to good use.
With a smile on his face and fluttering sleeves, he pretended to be more like a god and spoke loudly:
“It rains in spring, fireflies flow in summer, and mountains are covered with yellow leaves in autumn. In winter, it is naturally covered with snow. A snowfall in winter is just a matter of moving with the times and adapting to changes in things, so what’s the difficulty?”
The practitioners present were either shocked, disdainful, or stood on the wall to watch the excitement.
After Liu Bowen cut off the dragon veins, only a few dragons were left in the dragon clan and they lost the right to control the weather. According to logic, praying for rain and snow became easier, but the cutting of the dragon veins affected not only the dragon clan, but also the monks.
Now in the East China Sea, the West China Sea, the North Sea, and the South China Sea, the four dragon kings and thousands of aquatic tribes are in the canal, trying their best to prevent the snow from falling in the capital.
Emperor Jiajing ordered Shao Yuanjie to host the Luotian Dajiao to pray for snow. It has been several days. It seems that today is New Year's Eve. As a result, from morning to now, it is almost noon. Not to mention snow, there is not even a cloud above the head.
In terms of his powerful teaching power and exquisite Taoist skills, Shao Yuanjie is superior to the four dragon kings, but when it comes to controlling Qingyu, no one except the legendary rain master Chi Songzi is the opponent of the dragon clan.
In "Journey to the West", there was no rain in Fengxian County for three years, and the drought was fatal. Two-thirds of the people died, and selling their children and daughters was like a hell on earth. The seventy-two evil spirits clearly have "praying for rain". But Sun Wukong went to find the Dragon King to make it rain.
It's not that Sun Wukong can't do it, it's that the Jade Emperor doesn't allow it, and the Jade Emperor doesn't allow it. No matter how powerful the rain-seeking spell is, under the suppression of the Dragon King, it's impossible to make a drop of rain fall from the sky.
All in all, when it comes to praying for rain, even Sun Wukong who steps into the Lingxiao Palace cannot defeat the Dragon King.
"Okay!" Emperor Jiajing finally showed some expression, "If Taoist Li can make the capital and surrounding provinces covered with snow, I will make you the real protector of the country. The other Taoist priests can also take action. As long as it can make the world snow, I will not hesitate to reward you! "
Whether it was in the court or with the alchemists, Emperor Jiajing liked to watch the people below him fight.
For a ruler, this can be regarded as a truth, a useful truth.
After hearing this, the Taoist priests present were all eager to try, or they pondered deeply. It was impossible for it to snow under the interference of the Dragon King. But if the Dragon King was driven away, there were about a dozen people present who were sure that it would snow.
But that's not one dragon, but four, and there are countless shrimps, soldiers and crab generals. How to catch them? Who will come to make this snow after driving it away?
Li Changzhou took a step back and waited for the others to come forward first.
Shao Yuanjie did not let him go, staring at him with divine eyes: "Fellow Daoist Li, please."
Have a grudge? !
However, Li Changzhou had already thought of a way.
"In that case, I'm showing off my shame!"
"Ms. sir!" Yaochi's cheering voice sounded in his ears, seemingly caring and encouraging, but actually just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
The Taoist priests around him all stared red-eyed. Li Changzhou was so handsome that people hated him, but he actually dared to have such a beautiful woman!
Oh shit! If you are handsome, you should be a pedophile!
The Chongwu Altar became quiet.
Only then did Li Changzhou discover that there were not only Taoist priests, eunuchs, maids, and imperial guards, but also civil and military officials. There was also a large hall surrounded by gauze curtains in the distance.
He focused his attention on his eyes for a moment, and the scenery on the opposite side instantly stuck to his face. Behind the gauze curtain were the concubines of Emperor Jiajing, and the wives and daughters of hundreds of civil and military officials.
Looking at it this way, this snow seems to be very important to Emperor Jiajing.
Li Changzhou's guess was correct.
It has not snowed since the beginning of winter, so it is not a big deal for the people to starve to death, but people inside and outside the government are already panicked, and there are even some demons and monsters - probably the divine religion under the wise leadership of the Emperor of Heaven - spreading rumors:
The Ming Dynasty has gone through ten emperors since Emperor Taizu Gao. There has never been such a divine punishment. If it doesn't snow in the sky, who are you dissatisfied with?
Of course it was Emperor Jiajing, and no one else was qualified.
While taking a look, Li Changzhou withdrew his gaze and thoughts, and said loudly: "Everyone, watch carefully!"
The whole body was filled with mana, and strong air waves washed away in all directions. Everyone quickly covered their faces. The veil in the distance swayed and crackled as if it was about to be torn, and the female family members let out a burst of exclamations.
Shao Yuanjie stood in front of Emperor Jiajing, and dozens of Jinyi guards surrounded him.
Surrounded by everyone, Emperor Jiajing let the strong wind blow his clothes and stared at Li Changzhou intently.
But where is Li Changzhou?
"Where are the people?"
The sky and the earth suddenly turned white.
Then there was a boom and explosion, as if the gods grabbed a handful of thunder from the thunder pool and threw it into the world.
Everyone's blood surged, and the earth trembled.
"Cloud, there is a cloud, Your Majesty, the cloud is here!" The eunuch who spoke before shouted loudly.
Emperor Jiajing then raised his head.
Endless clouds gathered from all directions. In the blink of an eye, the sky above the capital, which was clear and clear, was already covered with clouds.
But it’s been a long time since it snowed.
"Friend Daoist Li, the clouds are enough, it's time to snow!" Shao Yuanjie stood on the altar, his voice rising to the sky.
The clouds were rolling, the thunder was deafening, and the world was flickering in and out of light, but it was just thunder and no snow.
After confirming that no one could see him, Li Changzhou first summoned Yang Qinglan to his side - the "bond summoning" took a long time. Just in case, he didn't call Li Qianxia.
"Don't talk about anything else, let's get some snow first." Before Yang Qinglan could speak, Li Changzhou said immediately.
As he spoke, his eyes wandered.
The long green silk hair flows like a waterfall, the full tube top is embroidered with light blue auspicious clouds, slightly revealing the snow-like collarbone, the white gauze skirt, and the white ribbon hanging from the waist, flying like butterflies in the wind.
She stood on top of the clouds, like a goddess from the Nine Heavens.
"Snowing?" Yang Qinglan said, sensing the surroundings and mobilizing the energy of the five elements.
"It looks great!" Li Changzhou couldn't help but applaud, "We'll make a set exactly the same when we go back. By the way, your "threading of needles and threads" can be done, right? "
Yang Qinglan rolled her eyes at him and said to herself, "Don't say anything else yet." Then she said nothing else.
After a while, she stopped and said, "No, there are four forces that have welded the surrounding water to death."
"Four forces?" Li Changzhou immediately doubted Shao Yuanjie and his helpers under the cloud.
"You can't do it either?" he asked.
After half a month of practice, combined with the Five Elements Qi Knife taught by Li Changzhou, Yang Qinglan's strength has also improved a lot. In terms of combat power, it is at least 980, which is close to the limit of human immortals.
If you are not close to the limit, you will not enter the dungeon on the 1st.
Yang Qinglan shook his head gently: "Each of these four forces is almost the same as me."
"So many masters." Li Changzhou couldn't help but ponder.
I'm afraid these people are all here to compete for the qualification to become an immortal. There are four of them at once, and there are more who have not taken action.
"What is your mission? I am 'overcoming the tribulation and becoming an immortal'." Li Changzhou briefly explained his mission.
"Me too. Don't talk about this for now, aren't you going to have snow?" Yang Qinglan cared more about his affairs than Li Changzhou himself.
At this time, Shao Yuanjie's voice urging it to snow came from under the clouds.
"You can't get off, can't you? Let's run away quickly." That means there is no luggage, otherwise Li Changzhou would have already packed up his belongings.
Ruyi hit him on the head, and Yang Qinglan said: "I can't do it alone, but we are two people, yin and yang are one, plus my understanding of nature and "Fairy Ruyi", we can get it from those four people." Take back control of water vapor. "
"Oh, you mean-"
Before Li Changzhou finished speaking, Yang Qinglan grabbed Ruyi's collar with his right hand and pulled him over.
In a ball of colorful light, the two people merged into one.
The clouds that were originally ringing with muffled thunder suddenly flew out with dozens of lightning bolts, like cracks in the sky or like fiery trees and silver flowers.
The lightning disappeared and the sky and the earth darkened. Even though they were mentally prepared, everyone was still shaken to the core by the explosion of thunder that followed.
But they all insisted on looking up.
"The clouds are dark! Dark!"
The dark white clouds gradually darken in color.
On the Chongyu Altar, no, all the ordinary people in the capital who knew something about the weather knew that this was a sign that it was going to snow.
Shao Yuanjie and other Taoist priests, as well as overt and covert practitioners, even sensed the huge water vapor of the Five Elements in the darkening clouds.
Did the Dragon King allow it to rain?
Is that kid from the Dragon King?
The thunder faded away, and everyone held their breath and waited quietly. Under the spotlight, white snowflakes and feathers swayed down from the sky softly and gracefully.
"It's snowing! Your Majesty, it's snowing!" The eunuch shouted first.
"It's snowing, it's snowing!" More people cheered vently.
"God will give us auspicious snow in the Ming Dynasty!"
The snow is falling harder and harder, and the sky and the earth are completely white in the blink of an eye.
The snow should have fallen a long time ago, but the four dragon kings were holding it down for an unknown length of time. Then it suddenly came out, making people turn gray in the blink of an eye.
"Your Majesty, it's snowing." The eunuch whispered with a congratulatory tone and put the cloak he had held in his hand at some point on Jiajing's body.
Emperor Jiajing stretched out his hand, snowflakes fell on his hand, and every bit of snow light had a slightly cool breath.
"well!"
At this time, all the civil and military officials, concubines, wives and daughters, Taoist priests, imperial guards, eunuchs and maidens under the altar were all kneeling together.
"I congratulate your Majesty!"
The sound shook the world.
Above the clouds, the giant chaotic python collapsed and shrank. Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan stood side by side, their clothes fluttering, like a couple of gods.
Looking at the Jiajing Emperor who was worshiped by everyone below, and even a great master like Shao Yuanjie had to kneel down and worship him, Li Changzhou sighed: "Only by absorbing this kind of magnanimity can a person become an immortal."
He suddenly remembered another thing: "How do foreigners become immortals?"
"I don't know." Yang Qinglan replied, "But I know that at this time, the world's population is about 400 million people, and about a quarter are under the rule of Jiajing. Even if foreigners can become immortals, the chance will not be higher than ours."
Li Changzhou smiled and said: "Maybe some foreigners will come to the Ming Dynasty to snatch him and become an immortal."
"Like a Persian beauty?" Yang Qinglan looked at him.
"Perhaps, there are also Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany. By the way, the Japanese should have the most people. Zheng Chenggong's mother is Japanese."
