Chapter 254: Two Battles
Chapter 254: Two Battles
Last time, when Yi Ling came to visit, Yu Jiu welcomed her with a grand fireworks show, but was slapped hard by Shi Yu. So how will Shi Yu torture our Mr. Li when facing Yi Ling, who is as beautiful as herself? Let's read on.
As the frost and snow fell, the crisis around Li's mansion was resolved. The patrol officers and soldiers responsible for guarding the capital arrived, and the leader shouted, "Li Yuefu, what's going on?"
"Nothing! I came to visit you and exchanged some ideas with you. I am so sorry for disturbing the brothers in the patrol camp! I will come to your house and apologize later."
"It's our duty! Since there's nothing to do here, we can leave. By the way, next time Li Lefu sets off fireworks, it would be better to let us know in advance so that we can prepare in advance to prevent the fireworks from getting out of control and causing a fire."
"Okay, okay, I'll report ahead next time! Thank you for your hard work, brothers!"
After the soldiers left, Li Yi and Yi Ling returned to the courtyard, but saw Shi Yu and the other two with angry eyes and cold eyes, approaching Li Yi with swords and knives. The latter was so scared that he hid behind Yi Ling. However, the three bypassed Yi Ling and beat Li Yi mercilessly! Yi Ling didn't care about Li Yi and walked to Yu Jiu to chat.
When the large-scale domestic violence of Shiyu and the other two was over, Li Yi slowly stood up with his head in his arms, singing casually: "Fortunately, I tried my best to protect my face, so my handsome face was preserved!"
Shiyu and the other two shouted in unison: "Shut up!" Li Yi was so frightened that he jumped back several steps.
Shi Yu said angrily: "I'll deal with you later!" Then the three of them came in front of Yi Ling and stood in a row.
Yi Ling looked up at Li Yi's three wives and said with a smile, "Have you had enough fighting? If you have, I will take him away."
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned. Yi Ling turned his head to look at Li Yi and asked, "Why, didn't you tell your wives?"
Li Yi said seriously: "Yes, of course I did!"
Shi Yu looked at Li Yi and asked, "You are talking about the battle between the Tiandi Sect and the Di Sect. Are you leaving now?"
Yi Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, he can go home for the New Year! But he can't accompany you this month."
Yu Jiu heard this and said excitedly: "Sister Yiling, wait for me, I'll go pack my luggage now! That's great, we can go out into the world together again!"
Li Yi shouted, "Bullshit! You are not allowed to go! Stay here and look after the house for me!"
"why?"
"Hey, Dami! Just look after the house if I ask you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Lin Fan, take him to the Imperial College to audit classes while I'm away." Lin Fan bowed and agreed.
Seeing that Li Yi was really leaving, Shi Yu and the others immediately changed their attitudes. They all put on reluctant expressions and looked at their husbands lovingly.
Li Yi smiled and said, "You showed no mercy when you beat me just now, but now you know I'm leaving and you're reluctant to let me go? Don't worry, I'll only be gone for 20 days and I'll definitely be back before the New Year."
Shiyu asked quickly, "Are you leaving now? Not staying another night?"
Li Yi said awkwardly: "My performance in the past few months should be okay, right? I went to the Vajra Temple two days ago, and my senior brothers said that I was tired and thin when they saw me."
Shi Yu rolled her eyes at Li Yi and whispered, "There are outsiders here, be careful with your words!"
"Outsider? Who?" Li Yi turned to look at Nangong Qi and said coldly, "Oh, Brother Qi is still here? There's no show to watch now, are you going to stay here for dinner?"
Nangong Qi said seriously: "You want to participate in the battle between the Tiandi Sect and the Di Sect? Then you are..."
"Senior Sister Yi Ling and I are fighting on behalf of the Earth Sect. What's wrong?"
"Then you are going to fight with Sister Xue?"
Li Yi pointed at Yi Ling and said, "Don't worry, I will watch her and won't let her hurt Xue'er."
Nangong Qi asked in surprise: "Xue'er?"
Yi Ling was surprised and asked, "Xue'er?"
Shiyu and the other two asked in surprise: "Xue'er?"
Shiyu was about to step forward to question him, but Li Yi immediately used his words to teleport himself and Yiling away. Li Yi's voice came from midair: "Ladies, don't worry, I will be back after the fight, and we will celebrate the New Year together! Brother Qi, don't worry, I will bring Xue'er back with me!"
In this way, Li Yi and Yi Ling set off for the location of the battle between the Tiandi Sect and the Human Sect, the Taihe Palace of Wudang Mountain. The battle between the Tiandi Sect and the Human Sect has always been held in the Human Sect, and the referee is the head of the Human Sect. This year, Wudang Mountain was chosen.
Zhongdu Luoyang is not far from Wudang Mountain, only 800 miles away. If Yi Ling and Li Yi travel at full speed, they can arrive in two days, but they are obviously not in such a hurry. As for the reason, those who understand will understand, and those who don’t understand can ask those who understand, so I won’t say more. The main reason is that I was blocked even after writing it, which makes me depressed.
It was winter, the weather was cold, and there was no air conditioning, but the two of them were sitting in the carriage hugging each other so tightly. To be exact, you were hugging Yiling so tightly.
Yi Ling broke free from Li Yi's dirty hands and said unhappily, "We are all masters of cultivation, why are you pretending to be so arrogant!"
"No amount of cultivation can withstand this biting cold! Besides, how can a weak scholar like me have any cultivation? If there is no fairy to light a fire to keep me warm, I will probably freeze to death in this desolate mountain!"
"No, you don't drive the horse either, how can the horse know the way?"
When I bought the carriage, the man said: "This horse has been running between Wudang Mountain and Luoyang for many years. It knows the road better than anyone else!"
"Do you believe this too?"
"I believe it! How can I not believe it?"
Yi Ling sneered: "Then why did you cheat him with the money for the Qi Condensation?"
"What do you mean by cheating? This is called equal exchange. He sold me the old horse as if it were a divine horse, and he even said something so mysterious. Naturally, I have to teach him a lesson. My silver is not fake. At least it's enough for the car. He won't lose much."
"You are the only one who has so many tricks! Hey, why did you tell Nangong Qi that you would keep an eye on me and prevent me from hurting Nangong Xue? What did you do to Nangong Xue?"
"Vulgar! Xue'er and I were driven by love and stopped at propriety, it's not like what you imagined! Also, you really have to be careful when fighting with Xue'er. There was an accident at Wolf Mountain before, which caused her to abandon her ruthless swordsmanship and lose all her cultivation.
Although her master took her back to practice again, how much of her power do you think she can recover in just a few months? At most, only half! That's why I asked you to show some mercy."
Yi Ling sighed and said, "Oh, that's boring. I thought I could find an opponent of equal strength to fight with all my strength, but the result is like this. This trip down the mountain is boring."
"What are you talking about? You haven't seen me for such a long time, don't you miss me? Seeing me is the most important thing for you to do after coming down the mountain!"
"Bah! What do you have to miss? I practice so hard every day, how can I have time to miss you! Don't be so sentimental."
"Who are you kidding? Don't you want me to come to Zhongdu to find me ten days in advance?"
"I've been thinking about this for a long time. I want to see what kind of person you teach him to be!"
"Okay, since you don't admit that you miss me, then I'll admit that I miss you. Otherwise, what will we do if neither of us miss each other?"
"Humph, looking at your beautiful wife and concubines at home, how can you have time to think about me! By the way, speaking of them, don't you find that there is something wrong with your first wife?"
Li Yi asked in confusion: "Shiyu? What's wrong with Shiyu?"
Yi Ling replied: "She has three incomplete souls and her earth soul is missing. Usually, her memory is wiped out or part of her earth soul is sucked away."
Li Yi was surprised and said, "My Shiyu is as beautiful as a fairy. Isn't this a manifestation of a pure and powerful soul? Why do you still say that her soul is incomplete? You are wrong."
"I am a Nine Netherworld body, and I can never be wrong in identifying souls and spirits. Take you for example, other cultivators can only feel your powerful spiritual power, but I can not only tell that your powerful spiritual power comes from the Heavenly Soul, but I can even tell from the appearance, so how could I be wrong?"
Li Yi asked in confusion: "But you said that Shi Yudi's soul was lost. This is not right. She still remembers her childhood memories and all the sufferings. It doesn't seem like her memory was erased by someone."
Yi Ling thought for a moment and said, "If her memory is coherent and her soul is fine, then she can only be a reincarnation of an immortal or an incarnation of Buddha. In both cases, her earth soul will not be complete. Only when she enters the extraordinary realm can she find her complete earth soul and restore her memory."
Li Yi recalled that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said that he had a destiny with Shiyu, and that his master, the Laughing Lion Arhat, was reincarnated as Luo Yan's apprentice Deli. Deli also recovered his memory after becoming the Vajra of Buddhism.
So he nodded and said, "If this is the explanation, then it is very likely. Guanyin Bodhisattva said that she had a connection with Shiyu. She might have been a disciple of Guanyin Bodhisattva in her previous life."
Yi Ling shook his head and said, "A disciple of Guanyin Bodhisattva, that's impossible. The Buddhists have a method called wisdom eye. Although it can't see through everything in the world as they boast, it can still see the cause and effect of reincarnation. Especially the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, I heard that he can see through other people's past and present lives with just one glance using the reincarnation method.
So if Shiyu was a disciple of Guanyin Bodhisattva, he would have recognized her at a glance. Since he didn't recognize her, it means that Shiyu had no connection with Buddhism in her previous life."
"Oh, so Shiyu might be the reincarnation of a fairy."
"It's just a possibility. Who knows, there may be other ways to do it in this world. If the soul is strong enough, the soul-splitting technique can also do it. But that is witchcraft, and I don't know much about it."
"Forget it, why bother so much. As long as Shiyu is okay, that's all that matters."
Yi Ling looked at Li Yi and asked, "She is fine, but have you ever thought that you will definitely enter the realm of the extraordinary in the future? At that time, your life span will be much longer than that of ordinary people. You will see your relatives pass away with your own eyes, and in the end you will be left alone."
Li Yi shook his head and smiled, "Are you trying to persuade me to become a monk? Do it sooner, at least I don't have this concern now, I'll talk about it when I have to face it in the future. Besides, even if they all leave me, don't I still have you? Sooner or later, you will enter the extraordinary realm!"
Yi Ling said proudly: "Of course, I have been practicing immortal arts. When the battle between the Heaven and Earth Sects is over, I will start preparing to overcome the heavenly tribulation."
As soon as the voice fell, thunder suddenly exploded in the sky, and the two of them opened the car curtain and looked towards the southwest. They could both feel the will of heaven, and they felt the pressure of heaven from the thunder just now.
"Someone crossed the catastrophe?"
"Yes, it's the Eternal Tribulation! It looks like Tianzong has produced another cultivator of the Transcendent Realm."
An ominous feeling came to Li Yi's heart, and he muttered: "Could it be Xue'er?"
"Didn't you say that she had lost all her power and cultivation? How could she have been promoted to the Transcendent Realm in just a few months?"
"That's right, maybe I'm overthinking it."
The official competition between the Tiandi and Di sects was on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, while the disciples' competition was in the first three days. Li Yi and Yi Ling arrived at Wudang Mountain on the fifth day.
When the Three Kingdoms divided Han, Wudang Mountain should not have been assigned to Wei State, because from a geographical point of view, Wudang Mountain is located in the south of Zhongnan Mountain (Zhongnan Mountain is Qinling Mountains), belonging to the eastern branch of Bashan Mountain Range, and Shennongjia is to the south, which is closer to Nanliang.
From the very beginning, Southern Liang had its eyes on the Nanyang Basin, while Western Chu specifically wanted Hanzhong. These two most critical pieces of land for Korea were both targeted.
As the victorious party, the Northern Wei Dynasty naturally could not swallow this humiliation, let alone suffer such a loss. However, the Chinese people were eager to stop the war, so they had to bite the bullet and take half of the territory of the South Korea, which was actually mountainous. Of course, it would sound good if the news got out. The three kingdoms divided the South Korea, the Northern Wei Dynasty got half, and Liang and Chu got the other half.
However, Tao Zhongwen was really eccentric. In order to disgust the Liang and Chu countries, he deliberately demanded all the mountain passes in the two countries during the division. Naturally, the Liang and Chu countries would not agree. After some bargaining, the Northern Wei Dynasty obtained the seat of Shangyong County in Xicheng from the area divided by Western Chu, and snatched the seat of Xincheng County in Fangling from the area divided by Southern Liang. Mount Wudang was located in Fangling, Xincheng County.
