Chapter 108: Divide the spoils in advance
"Tian Xuanzi, why is there only this much in your third volume of Honghuang?"
After Tianxuan finished burning incense, Dongjun Yanfei, who had never spoken a word, finally opened her lips.
"After the war between wizards and demons, both the wizards and demons suffered heavy losses. The wizards retreated to the six reincarnations opened up by Hou Tu Niangniang, and the underworld gradually took shape. The remaining demons, led by the four great demon commanders - Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Bai Ze, and Lu Wu, retreated to the northern part of the prehistoric land, waiting for their monarch to return. A pair of golden boys and jade girls - Hao Tian and Yao Chi, who sat in front of the Taoist master Hong Jun, took over the throne of the Emperor and Empress.
Haotian is called Haotian God, and Yaochi is called Yaochi Jinmu. However, this newly appointed emperor and empress had neither strength nor prestige. Their heavenly palace was just a few big cats and small cats, and was not taken seriously by the saints and sects such as the Renjiao, Chanjiao, Jiejiao, and Xifangjiao.
After countless years, the second leader of the Western Sect, Zhunti Taoist, in order to undermine the prestige of the new generation of heaven, designed to have Princess Yunhua, the sister of Lord Haotian, have an affair with the mortal Yang Tianyou and give birth to an only son, Yang Jian, nicknamed Erlang. When Lord Haotian succeeded to the throne, in order to restrain the sentient beings of the three realms, the way of heaven was moved and sent down thousands of laws and regulations, collectively known as the Heavenly Law. Princess Yunhua took the lead in violating the Heavenly Law, forcing Lord Haotian to take drastic measures and kill the mortal Yang Tianyou. He also turned a peach into a peach mountain and pressed Princess Yunhua under it. "
The Moon Goddess took over the conversation, and her clear and pleasant voice echoed in the solemn and dignified hall, like the sound of musical instruments: "Princess Yunhua's son, Yang Jian, was rescued by Jade Ding Zhenren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect. I'm afraid that when Yang Jian grows up and learns a lot of skills, he should find a way to rescue his mother, Princess Yunhua, and make his uncle, the Emperor of Heaven, lose face, right?"
"Hehe." Tianxuan laughed a few times without commenting on the half-guessing words of Yan Fei and Yue Shen.
"What about the rest?" Yan Fei asked impatiently upon seeing this.
Tianxuan still didn't answer Yan Fei, "Yan Fei, Yue Shen, you brought Da Siming and Shao Siming here uninvited today, aren't you just here to read books?"
"Of course not." Seeing that Tianxuan was unwilling to answer, Yueshen knew that she could not force him, so she changed the topic from the misty and vast prehistoric world to this chaotic world full of wars, "His Excellency Donghuang ordered us to go with the army and bring back the classics of Yan. I heard that the king ordered you to go with General Wang Jian, so we want to act with you."
Yan was one of the vassal states of the Zhou royal family. Its founder was Duke Zhao, the eldest son of King Wen of Zhou. After King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he granted his younger brother Ji Shi (shi) the title of Duke Zhao of Yan. A hundred years ago, the Zizhi Rebellion broke out in Yan. King Xuan of Qi sent a large army to destroy Yan in the name of suppressing the rebellion. Later, King Wuling of Zhao supported Prince Zhi (King Zhao of Yan) to return to the country and ascend the throne, and Yan was restored. King Zhao of Yan appointed Yue Yi to attack Qi and Qin together to break through Donghu Korea. Yan was at its peak for a time, but after King Zhao of Yan died, Yan declined rapidly. After the Battle of Changping, Yan was defeated by Zhao and became a weak country.
Although the State of Yan rose only briefly during the reign of King Zhao of Yan, it was after all a close relative of the Zhou royal family, and had existed for 800 years since the reign of King Zhao of Yan. Even though there had been turmoil such as the Zizhi Rebellion during these 800 years, the classics collected during these 800 years were a huge treasure for schools such as the Yin-Yang School and the Taoist School.
When the Qin army destroyed Han and Zhao, the Yin-Yang School also obtained some classics, but how could the classics collected by Han and Zhao, which were only two or three hundred years old, be compared with the eight hundred years of accumulation of Yan? The fact that the Yin-Yang School sent four masters at one time was enough to prove that the leader of the Yin-Yang School, Donghuang Taiyi, attached great importance to the classics of Yan.
"Okay!" Brother Zheng agreed that Yin-Yang School could accept books from all countries except those on politics, livelihood, data, and military tactics. "But, my Tian Sect also wants a copy of those books. Yin-Yang School gets the originals, and my Tian Sect gets the copies!"
In addition to agreeing to the four daughters of the Yin-Yang School, Tianxuan, who became a disciple of the Taoist Tian Sect in this life, did not forget to let his master get a share of the pie.
Hearing Tianxuan asking for a copy of the classics, the Moon Goddess said faintly: "Tianxuanzi, don't you think this request is too much?"
"Is it too much?" Tian Xuan didn't care. "I'm going to fight the enemy, and you Yin Yang family are just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of my labor. I just want to copy the manuscript. In the end, you're the ones who got the better deal!"
"That may not be the case!" Upon hearing this, Yan Fei's beautiful face showed a trace of anger, and there was even a trace of icy murderous intent brewing in her dark blue gemstone-like beautiful eyes. "As far as I know, Prince Dan of Yan State has close contacts with the Mohist School. The Mohist School has always advocated stopping wars, and I'm afraid they will not sit idly by!"
This sentence was as cold and silent as a frost sword. Because it was blessed by a bit of Yan Fei's power, it seemed to condense the void into reality and turn into waves. As soon as the words came out, the temperature in the already cold and silent hall dropped suddenly, making people shudder.
[It seems that Yan Dan has offended Yan Fei badly! ]
Tianxuan knew where Yan Fei's killing intention came from, and silently mourned for Yan Dan in his heart. "It's not too late to talk about the specific distribution later!" Tianxuan didn't dare to tease Yan Fei in this state, and wisely changed the subject.
"it is good!"
"As it should be."
………………
"younger sister!"
Late at night, a returning traveler walks with a cane, cold phosphorus and fireflies gather on the earthen embankment. The moon is dim and the muddy path is slippery in the village inn, and the light of mending clothes leaks through the bamboo window.
The sky had turned completely dark. Tiny gem-like stars twinkled in the boundless sky, complementing the bright moon as white as a jade plate, creating a hazy moonlight with stars and the moon shining together.
Tianxuan Temple, backyard.
Xiao Ling, who was brought back from Yin Yang Family by Tian Xuan, peeked at the moonlight outside through the open window, but did not appreciate it at all. Her pretty face was filled with pain and worry, and she sat on the floor, mumbling to herself, as if all the bones in her body had been pulled out.
What is more painful than not being able to find someone is finally finding them but not being able to reunite.
Xiao Ling already knew the whereabouts of his sister, and she became the elder of the Wood Department of Yin Yang Family - Shao Siming. Although Xiao Ling knew that he was sorry for his sister, his longing for her made him want to stay with her forever. Even if his sister really wanted to kill him, in his opinion, it was better than the current life of imprisonment.
"Sister, no matter what, I must rescue you!"
"Sister, I'm sorry!"
……
In the dead of night, there was still someone guarding Xiao Ling's room. Xiao Ling, whose cultivation was imprisoned, knew that it was difficult to escape, and he had no mood to sleep. He could only stay in the room arranged by Tian Xuan, like a madman, and express his longing for his sister with meaningless words.
creak!
Suddenly, a slightly harsh sound was heard in this empty environment, waking Xiao Ling up. Along with it came a voice that Xiao Ling had been waiting for for a long time.
"You all, get down!"
