Chapter 20 The Mortal State Teacher
It was also a mistake for Lin Mo to think that a practitioner had too good hearing for the first time.
"What did you say? Support the Song Dynasty and repel the Jin people? Did I hear it wrong?"
Liang Lian nodded very seriously: "That's true! Please help from the Immortal Chief!"
Lin Mo suddenly felt that the world in front of him was very ridiculous, unprecedentedly ridiculous, even more ridiculous than when he recognized Sun Wukong: the clash of the country and the war of the nation actually required a practitioner to carry out?
Ah, by the way, Bai Suzhen met the emperor after she escaped from Leifeng Pagoda, and was also requested by the emperor, hoping to use magic to directly defeat the Jin Kingdom and save the Song Dynasty, but Bai Suzhen politely refused at the time.
What can I say? I can only say that the Southern Song Dynasty was really helpless.
It seemed that Lin Mo was about to refuse, Liang Lian was anxious and said first: "Immortal, this is what the emperor said in his own words. I hope that there are capable people in the world who work together for the Song Dynasty! If you are willing, the emperor will have many immortal treasures to give them! And you can also promise you the position of national master and the world to respect them! You can even imitate the affairs of our ancestors and our ancestor Chen Tuan and be famous mountains and rivers with you for you to establish a sect!"
Liang Lian said it seriously, and Lin Mo only felt that it was even more ridiculous.
It’s not that the treatment is bad, to be honest, the treatment is simply out of the question!
If you talk about treasures, which one can compare to the royal collection? I think it is clear that the treasures that the emperor wants to give to are definitely not ordinary things! Needless to say, the position of the national master is worthy of the world, and the treatment of being respected by the world can be compared to the powerful people who have truly achieved enlightenment and become immortals! No, some unknown Mao gods are not even as good as this! As for the affairs of Chen Tuan’s ancestor and Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Chen Tuan’s ancestor could come to Mount Hua, and now he would come to Mount Heng! To Mount Song! And these are all famous mountains and rivers that are not inferior to Putuo Mountain!
But even so, Lin Mo only found it funny: because it is impossible for a practitioner to agree!
In the current world, Bai Suzhen has received several warnings from Guanyin Master and the God of Heaven: There is a difference between immortals and mortals, so you should not stay in the secular world too much and interfere with the secular world!
This is the rule of the White Snake world, not just the rule of the White Snake world: almost any world, as long as a practitioner, cannot have too much connection with the world! Enjoying royal worship and participating in dynasty changes is also a taboo among taboos! It is something that ordinary practitioners cannot touch!
Cultivators pay attention to cause and effect. With Lin Mo's realm, they cannot realize this magical power, but this power does exist! If you enjoy royal worship, participate in the dynasty change, and get benefits from it, then there will be a time to make contributions! Is the national teacher? Is the world respected? OK, then you can protect this country for the rest of your life! Otherwise, once the country is destroyed and the dynasty changes, all the things you get will be backfired!
The power of the backlash of luck in one day is so powerful that even the real gods in the heavenly court cannot bear it! What's more, ordinary practitioners! It's better to lose all their magical powers when their cultivation is broken, and they may not even be able to meet the fate of immortals again even if they reincarnate. They will be in the secular world forever!
Therefore, any rational practitioner will be afraid of Liang Lian’s invitation!
Of course, there are two special cases among them: the first is Longhu Mountain, and the second is the Dragon Career.
Needless to say, Longhu Mountain is the Taoist tradition of Zhang Daoling. Because of Zhang Tianshi's lifelong actions and his position as an immortal in the Heavenly Court, he became a celestial master of all dynasties. While enjoying the royal family's title of civilians and the priests, he swept away the evil spirits that have been harmed in the secular world and avoiding the great monsters causing trouble in the mortal world.
This is the ancestor of others. It is born like this and ordinary practitioners cannot learn it.
As for the dragon's karma, it is more magical, which means that the practitioner follows the will of heaven, assists the true emperor in quelling the troubled times and achieving peace. This practice is relatively ancient, and the Feng Boyu Master who assists the emperor in the Yanhuang dispute. Once completed, he will not only not be dragged down by the secular world of the dynasty, but will also receive merit rewards and greatly increase his cultivation.
This ordinary practitioner can participate, but the difficulty is so high that it can be compared to becoming an immortal: Who is the true destiny? We can see clearly from the back, but at that time, no one knows! In the chaos, do you know that you are the true destiny? Not the person on the other side? If you make a mistake, the fate will be ruined, you want to go!
Besides, if the true emperor wants to achieve great achievements, he will inevitably suffer many disasters. This noble man favored by heaven and earth will naturally not be a problem, but the people around him are in a bad mood! And you don’t have to think that you are a practitioner, and you can be fearless with magical powers. Don’t worry, as long as you relax, the disaster will definitely be able to solve you! You will definitely not feel bored!
So unless you have to, or if you really have great supernatural powers, you will not follow the path of following the dragon's karma. Then again, if you really have great supernatural powers, can you still need this?
To sum up, as long as you are smart and do not want to die, you will not agree to what Liang Lian said! Besides, the Southern Song Dynasty is clearly in a state of decline, so why should I go in and bury it with you?
The reason is quite complicated. Without saying anything to Liang Lian, Lin Mo said simply: "The prince is very proud of me, I am ashamed of being aware of it."
This was said firmly and clearly had no intention of negotiation, which disappointed Liang Lian very much, and was really disappointed.
Liang Lian is indeed a second-generation power generation who is absolutely powerful, and he has done a lot of food, drink, gamble, etc. He can't say that he is a social cancer, otherwise he would not be so domineering and persecuting Xu Xian in every way. But because of this, he also understands what the Southern Song Dynasty means to himself: if the Southern Song Dynasty dies, he will die!
So since the emperor expressed his hope to invite the immortals to come out to support the Song Dynasty, he was really concerned about this matter: If the immortals really invited the immortals to support the Song Dynasty, wouldn’t he be able to live his happy life all the time?
It was driven by this idea that when he heard that a god in Zhenjiang was born, he immediately came to ask for a meeting. Even when the experienced County Magistrate Chen told him the secret and repeatedly emphasized that this was probably a person with some intentions, he still had high hopes!
In fact, he still hates County Magistrate Chen now: If you hadn't neglected the Immortal Chief just now, maybe the matter would have been done with my value for profit!
At the same time, County Magistrate Chen had different ideas.
This Chen County Magistrate was born in a family of officials. He has been in the ups and downs of officialdom for several years. He has experienced a lot and has dealt with real practitioners. He has no awe of the word "god" and is not as good as a commoner. So from the beginning, he was rational and had a bad view of Lin Mo: How could Youdao Quanzhen behave like this? It would be better to say that he is a demon than to say that he is a god! If he really comes out of the mountain, he will definitely make the Song Dynasty look like!
So even though he knew Liang Lian’s idea, he insisted on coming forward first and trying to expose the true appearance of this so-called immortal! At least, it also made the demon know that he was not easy to mess with and took the initiative to retreat!
But unexpectedly, Lin Mo was a little scheming. Liang Lian didn't follow the promised actions and came out to take charge of the situation, and put it into the main point in one fell swoop!
There is nothing I can do about this. Although the family behind County Magistrate Chen is quite small, he is far inferior to King Liang. He could only sit aside in a suffocation, watch Liang Lian say something and say it out loud, but Lin Mo mercilessly rejected it.
At this time, the magistrate Chen became even more disgusted with Lin Mo: It is one thing that I don’t want you to do this job, it is another thing that you simply refuse! What does it mean? Don’t want to contribute to my Song Dynasty? It’s simply unrestrained! All the world is the king’s land, and the shores of the land are the king’s ministers. Even if you are a practitioner, you have to obey the orders of the emperor if you haven’t reached the sky for a day! What’s more, you are kind-hearted and value profits? You really look down on me in Song Dynasty?
Anger surged, and County Magistrate Chen immediately ignored Liang Lian's presence and spoke angrily: "Are you going to disobey the sage?"
Lin Mo was stunned, and then he noticed the angry County Magistrate Chen. While confusing the guy, he smiled and said, "Mr. County Magistrate, what the prince said is an invitation. Your Majesty now has no orders, right?"
"That's not OK!" County Magistrate Chen was even more angry by Lin Mo's casual smile: "This county is very clear about what you are doing and what you want to do! Do you really think that this county will not take action if you fool the people like this?"
Lin Mo's smile was curled and his expression became serious. Although he didn't understand what happened to County Magistrate Chen, the situation was clear at the moment: the hypocritical face maintained by both sides was torn apart!
"Ah, County Magistrate Chen, what are you talking nonsense!" Liang Lian was confused by the sudden change: "How can I speak to the immortal chief like this?"
"Criminal, you don't know yet!" County Magistrate Chen sneered: "To deal with such a demon, you should--ah!"
He didn't say what he should do. Because less than two palms in front of him, a huge fireball suddenly appeared, floating and rolling, scaring him to scream and lean back, falling into a chair.
Before he was shocked, his palm stretched out from behind and patted his shoulder. He was extremely shocked, turned his head in a hurry, and his eyes widened like an egg: Which demon Taoist who was still opposite him just now appeared behind him!
Lin Mo stared at County Magistrate Chen, his face turned cold and he spoke slowly.
"Mr. County Magistrate, although I have insufficient cultivation, not everyone can bully me!"
"After I went down the mountain, I neither used my magical power to harm the countryside nor used magic to harm the people. Instead, I subdued a tiger demon to avoid the worries of the villagers and monsters!"
"I wonder if the county magistrate, where does the word "demonic" come from?"
Lin Mo's speech was not fast, and it could even be said to be relatively slow. He was spitting out word by word, as if a strong man swung a huge hammer to smash something, and every stroke was loud and shocking.
And as he spoke, wisps of flames flew out of the bronze mirror around his waist and rushed into the air, pouring into the fireball the size of a human head in the air like a stream of water, making it continue to grow! When Lin Mo said in the end, the fireball had become half a human size, rolling and boiling in the air, emitting burning heat!
Liang Lian was frightened by this huge fireball and his limbs were trembling, and his face turned pale! His cheeks were covered with sweat, and I don’t know if they were scared or roasted!
"Immortals - Immortals! County Magistrate Chen was just absent-minded, so there is no need to do this!" He stuttered and said, "Misunderstanding! It's just a misunderstanding! Ah, County Magistrate Chen, talk quickly!"
County Magistrate Chen also collapsed in the chair with a pale face. He felt the huge heat wave in front of him and the biting coldness behind him. His skin twitched for a while, and finally lowered his head: "This county is absent for a moment, so don't blame me for the immortals!"
Lin Mo said nothing and looked at the county magistrate Chen who was hanging his head silently for a moment. It was not until Liang Lian twisted his body uncomfortably that he waved his hand and put the fireball back into the ground fire mirror.
Very good! It seems you understand! The reason why I came is that I don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble for myself! But this does not mean that I am weak! I am afraid of you! You should know what is different from you! Who can make whom pay an unbearable price!
The scene became like this, so there was no need to say anything else. Lin Mo bowed: "Criminal, I still have something important to do, so I will say goodbye."
County Magistrate Chen still lowered his head and said silently. Liang Lian, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, turned his eyes and said anxiously: "Should you wait, I am going to meet the Immortal today. I am so happy. There are a few treasures here. Please accept them as a celebration!"
As he said that, the guy bounced off the chair, rushed straight behind the screen, and entered the backyard.
Lin Mo suddenly realized in his heart: County Magistrate Chen can't threaten, so you can use real temptation? You really don't give up!
Just as he was thinking, Liang Lian led a few servants and rushed in with a few luxurious small boxes at a very fast speed.
"Please look at the treasures tributed by the Southern Barbarians, namely the Fire God Pearl, the Shenjuntian Music Picture, the Time Bagua Furnace, and the Mutton Fat Jade Pure Bottle!"
