Chapter 257 Fellow Taoist, please stay.
The sky and the earth are long, and the years are flowing slowly like water. Under the calm atmosphere of the three realms, the calamity is slowly rising.
Xia Jie's stupidity eventually led to the destruction of the Great Xia Dynasty. The first slavery dynasty in human history finally came to an end and was lost in the waves of history.
Xia destroyed Shang and prospered, Shang Tang established the great Shang Dynasty, and the plan of the ten princes of Jinwu was successful. Shang Tang indeed became the co-lord of the human race, established a new dynasty, built the capital at Chaoge, enfeoffed eight hundred princes, and jointly respected the Shang Dynasty.
The eight hundred vassal states in the Kyushu Human Race Territory respected the power of the Shang Dynasty and respected it as their master. The leader of the Shang Dynasty was the emperor.
After Tianyi became the co-owner of the human race, the tenth prince returned to the Wa Palace because he was afraid that the human race would arrest him if they knew about it. Only by returning to the Wa Palace could Nuwa protect him.
In fact, he made the right move. After Tang became the co-owner, the human race knew about it. But at this time, the matter was decided and everyone was helpless. However, it also resulted in Shang Tang only having six hundred years of national destiny to enjoy. But when everyone was looking for the initiator, he returned to the Wa Palace. The human race still maintained some respect for Nuwa. Although they were dissatisfied with this in their hearts, they would not say much.
At the same time, Nuwa also knew about this. She remembered the Demon Emperor's entrustment to her before his death. She went to the Tenth Prince to scold him that day, and finally banned him from leaving the Wa Palace. On the surface, he was punishing the Tenth Prince, but secretly, he was helping him.
The wheels of history are rolling forward, unstoppable.
The eight hundred princes represent eight hundred different minds, headed by the four great princes in the southeast, northwest and northwest. They have been passed down from generation to generation, and their recognition of the Shang Dynasty has gradually decreased. Something called ambition is gradually taking shape, and there is no telling what day it will explode. .
Dongbohou Jiang Wenlong took the lead in rebelling, and Emperor Shang sent Xibohou to exterminate him. The two sides fought, but Jiang Wenlong was later plotted against by his own relatives. Dongbohou was defeated and captured, and the rebels were hanged. Dong Bohou's son Jiang Shang, who was only eight or nine years old, luckily escaped by hiding among the corpses. He was later rescued by his fourth-generation servant Jiang Xuan. Due to the family's disaster, Jiang Shang was extremely sad. , became seriously ill.
The two of them wanted to go to Chaoge to see Dong Bohou for the last time. Because they were rebellious ministers, neither of them dared to take the official road and took the mountain road instead. Because of his old age, Jiang Xuan had to sleep in the open air. Later he became seriously ill and died soon after.
In the end, Jiang Shang was left alone to stumble around. After untold hardships, he finally reached Chaoge, the capital of Shang. However, after arriving at Chaoge, what he saw was his father's head. Jiang Shang was so sad that he fainted in front of a tavern.
The owner of the tavern, whose surname was Song, was a strange person, but he was a warm-hearted owner. He dumped Jiang Shang in front of his house and asked people to carry him to the back hall. He also called a doctor to treat him.
After Jiang Shang woke up, he only said that his surname was Jiang and his given name was Ziya. He had no relatives and was poor and helpless. He came to Chaoge to beg for a living. Song Yiren felt that there was something hidden in it, but he couldn't ask more questions, so he left Jiang Ziya behind.
Jiang Ziya was confused. In addition to helping Song Yiren with some groceries, he liked to read military books and strategies. Song Yiren didn't ask any questions and allowed him to do as he pleased.
Time flies. Emperor Wen Ding, the emperor of the Shang Dynasty, is in power. Everything is in order. On the surface, the Yin and Shang Dynasties are revitalizing. In fact, the hearts of the princes in the world have dispersed. They are just afraid of hearing the majesty of the grand master and worshiping the tiger's army and horses. Just dare to take action. Emperor Wen Ding died after reigning for twenty-nine years, and was succeeded by the crown prince, Emperor Yi. Emperor Yi was still on the throne, but he was also cautious and did not dare to go beyond the rules in everything. Chengtang's world was relatively stable.
Jiang Ziya was thirty-two years old in Song Yiren's family. Song Yiren proposed marriage to him, but he did not agree. That day, while he was studying, he heard someone calling him.
Jiang Ziya was startled and looked back, only to see an old man. This old man was wearing a light yellow Taoist robe, with long eyebrows like snow, holding a peach wood staff, and he looked like a fairy.
When Jiang Ziya saw this, he knew that this man was not an ordinary person. Although he lived a hard life, he had developed a pair of eyes that could see the difference between ordinary people and noble people at a glance. He stepped forward, bowed, and asked, "Why did the Taoist Master call me here?"
The old man chuckled and said: "Ziya, I know that you are sad and unable to relieve yourself, so I came here to talk to you. Do you want to spend your whole life like this?"
Hearing this, Jiang Ziya replied: "This kid has a lonely life and has no one to rely on, but he has a big enemy on his side. How can he be willing to spend the rest of his life like this?"
The old man smiled and said: "The world of mortals rotates around, life is full of suffering, the sea of suffering is boundless, and all living beings perish. Is there anyone in this world who is not from the world of mortals? Ziya, are you willing to follow me into the mountains to practice Taoism and seek purity, which is better than sinking into the mortal world?"
"Ziya is willing!" Jiang Ziya said happily after hearing this.
"Okay, just let me go." After saying that, he turned around and left, Jiang Ziya quickly followed.
This old man is the Antarctic Immortal. He came down the mountain to worship Jiang Ziya at the request of Yuanshi. He went up the mountain to Kunlun and worshiped in front of Yuanshi's throne. Yuan Shi already knew the person who would be responsible for the calamity, so he made arrangements early.
When they arrived at the mountain, they saw that there was another person who was apprenticed to him. The Antarctic Immortal didn't want to take care of it at first. Although it was not common for people to come to Kunlun Mountain to become apprentices, there were still some, and it was not uncommon like this today. But at this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun on the mountain sent a message, asking this person to follow him up. The immortal had no choice but to take the two of them up the mountain.
After going up to the mountain gate and paying homage to Yuanshi Tianzun, the two of them waited for Tianzun's orders.
Yuan Shi, the superior, looked at the two people below and was extremely surprised, because he saw that the person who should be robbed was not one person, but two people. What was going on?
"What are the names of the two people below?" Tianzun asked.
"Jiang Ziya, my dear boy, pay your respects to the Heavenly Lord!"
Hearing this, Jiang Ziya bowed and worshiped. When he first knew that he was worshiping the Holy Lord of Heavenly Punishment, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jiang Ziya was excited for a while. He didn't expect that the famous Holy Lord was right in front of him. He was even more excited when he thought that he would worship under the saint in the future. Incessantly.
"Sanxian Shen Gongbao, pay your respects to the Heavenly Lord!"
Another person also spoke at this time. However, he has some cultivation. He is not a mortal like Jiang Ziya, but his cultivation is not high either. He has just passed the mortal realm and is the true immortal realm.
"Jiang Ziya, Shen Gongbao?"
The corner of Yuan Shi's mouth showed a strange arc, as if he had come up with some interesting idea.
"You are willing to join my sect and become my registered disciples." Yuanshi Tianzun said to the two of them.
"We are willing."
The two of them are inseparable. Although they are registered disciples, they are still registered disciples of the saint, which is several times better than others.
"Yes." Yuan Shi nodded and said: "This is the cultivation scripture for you two. When you are under my sect, remember to abide by the rules, do not violate them, and practice well."
After saying that, Yuan Shi shot out two streams of light and flew out into their hands, turning into two ordinary books.
"Thank you, teacher!" The two of them said overjoyed.
"Well, go ahead!"
The two thanked them again, and then followed the Antarctic Immortal out of Yuxu Palace, found a place on Kunlun Mountain, and settled down.
Jiang Ziya returned to the house and opened the secret book, only to see the "Jade Purity Yuanshi Jing" written on it. Then the words on the secret book seemed to come alive, turning into white light and flying into his mind.
At the same time, Shen Gongbao took out the secret book and prepared to open it with excitement. Before, he practiced ordinary immortal arts, which were not outstanding. Now that he has become a disciple of the saint, he must be top-notch.
When he opened it, he was immediately dumbfounded because it had the mysterious characters "Fellow Taoist, please stay" written on it. At the same time, a mysterious wave circulated on it, which immediately attracted his attention.
