MTL - Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion-Chapter 169 168 One person is unlucky, everyone enjoys happiness
Chapter 169 168. When one person is unlucky, everyone enjoys happiness
Lei Jun chatted with Li Xuan and Li Kong for a few more words, then said goodbye and left.
He returned to his own residence.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a small hair ball sitting in the courtyard, black and white, with two small eyes that kept moving.
It was surprisingly the Gungun that he had brought back to the mountain.
When Lei Jun went to Senliu Palace to take up his post, firstly he considered the external environment to be complicated, and secondly, his practice had reached a critical moment, so he did not take him with him this time.
At this moment, we met again. This rolling body had shrunk several times and was no longer as huge as a baby elephant.
When a person stands up, the current height is no more than one meter.
But his spirituality is far better than that of Lei Junli Shanqian.
Especially those eyes, which are already as smart as a human being, smart and cunning.
Seeing Lei Jun appear at the door, Gungun put down the bamboo branch he was bringing to his mouth, stood up with a bang, and came forward to greet him.
“Practice is very effective.”
Lei Jun smiled and directly picked up Gungun, who was much smaller in size.
Well…
The feeling of getting it is obviously different.
Lei Jun stroked it carefully again.
The fur is obviously much smoother and softer, and is no longer as rough and prickly as before.
The feel now feels closer to a cat than a bear.
This Gungun was hugged by Lei Jun and jerked several times, but he didn't struggle to jump away.
But there was a very human expression on the bear's face, as if it could be condensed into one sentence:
There is really nothing I can do about you...
“Well, the practice is indeed very fruitful.” Lei Jun nodded repeatedly: “Keep persevering and don’t relax.”
Gun Gun, who had transformed from a big guy into a little guy, turned his head to the side, as if he didn't dare to look at Lei Jun.
“Senior brother, it would be great if you came back and urged this little lazy guy.”
At this time, someone else came over from outside the courtyard, it was Lei Jun's junior brother Chu Kun.
He said with a smile: "This little guy is a real genius, but he just likes to be lazy."
In Lei Jun's arms, Na Gungun turned his head away with a guilty conscience.
"Speaking of genius, junior brother, your progress in cultivation is gratifying." Lei Jun turned to look at Chu Kun again: "Although I was outside the mountain some time ago, I also heard other disciples mention that you have successfully crossed from the second to the third heaven. The natural chasm between them is in disaster."
Earlier, when Zhou Zihang and others were traveling between Longhu Mountain and Xianliu Mountain, they chatted with Lei Jun about some relevant news.
When Lei Jun contacted his master Yuan Mobai, he also heard Yuan Mobai mention it.
Not long ago, Chu Kun successfully survived the catastrophe between the second and third heavens, and reached the realm of the third heaven of the Taoist Fulu Sect.
Counting the years, it will be six years since Chu and Kun officially entered the palace and worshiped under the white gate of Yuan Mo.
Successfully survived two natural disasters, successfully built the foundation, and then achieved the realm of the Dharma Altar.
Such speed is also rare among top powers like Tianshi Mansion and Chu Clan.
Among the newcomers to the Tianshi Mansion True Legend in recent years, only Lei Jun is faster than him, and Chen Yi is similar.
The rest are all inferior.
Even Chen Yi was still hovering at the level of perfect foundation building at about the same time period, preparing for the disaster of overcoming the natural chasm.
Now that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has revived, young practitioners have benefited from their practice and their progress has indeed become faster.
But it is still rare for Chu and Kun to make such an advance.
"Lucky, lucky." Chu Kun said politely: "It's just some luck. If you can't do it accurately, you may not be so lucky in the future."
He looked at Lei Jun and straightened his expression: "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you for your Spirit Base Vine, senior brother, and also thank you for allowing me to watch you overcome the catastrophe of the natural chasm."
Although the dangers we passed through were different, Chu Kun still benefited a lot from being an atmosphere group and experiencing it.
“There are two old sayings in the spiritual world.”
Lei Jun called Chu Kun to sit down: "The first sentence is that there is always luck, and it is often not accidental. The second sentence is that even if it is all accidental, blessings and opportunities are profound, which is a great wealth for practitioners."
He glanced at Chu Kun.
Even if there are all kinds of unexpected encounters, if my junior brother can improve his cultivation so quickly, his own natural talent must be excellent.
According to some experiences summarized by predecessors, he is at least the foundation of the unity of spiritual body and superior understanding.
It is not even impossible to be pregnant with the Holy Body or to have a clear understanding.
Of course, now that spiritual energy is more conducive to monks' practice, the experience of previous generations is no longer so accurate, so it can only be used as a reference.
“Is Senior Brother out of seclusion too?” Lei Jun asked.
Generally speaking, in the Tianshi Mansion, the so-called "elder brother" has been an exclusive title in recent years, specifically referring to Li Zhengxuan.
However, in recent years, Lei Jun and Chu Kun started to call Wang Guiyuan their senior brother more and more when chatting among them.
Chu Kun nodded: "I said I would come to see you before, but something suddenly happened and I was called away."
He explained: "His Royal Highness King Wu's special envoy visited our sect to meet with the master. At the same time, he invited the senior brother to come and sit with him."
While the two were chatting, Wang Guiyuan arrived at the door.
It's just that his face is a little bitter.
“What kind of work is going on over there, His Highness King Wu?” Lei Jun and Chu Kun stood up to greet him.
Wang Guiyuan smiled bitterly: "I want to conscript me into the palace to offer sacrifices."
Lei Jun and Chu Kun looked at each other.
Wang Guiyuan can certainly refuse.
It was impossible for King Wu’s special envoy to kidnap him from Longhu Mountain.
But it is expected that the news will be spread actively.
His Royal Highness the King of Wu, a polite and virtuous corporal, favored Master Yuan Chang of Longhushan Mountain and his disciples.
Although he repeatedly ran into obstacles with Yuan Mobai's master and apprentice, it was enough for the King of Wu to have this gesture and heat up the news.
“His situation is getting more and more difficult. The problem can no longer be solved by hiding one’s capabilities and biding time, and acting in a low-key manner.”
Lei Jun guessed: "Why do I feel that he is going to make some big move in the near future..."
In connection with the previous uprising in Huaishan of the White Lotus Sect, it was related to the King of Wu. In recent years, this king's actions have become more and more violent.
It means that a trapped animal is still fighting.
"Succeed or not, senior brother has become famous this time." Chu Kun looked at his senior brother with some sympathy: "His Royal Highness the King of Wu personally helped build momentum."
Hearing this, Wang Guiyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head repeatedly.
His eyes circled between Lei Jun and Chu Kun, and sighed: "Not only His Highness King Wu, but also you two monsters."
Lei Jun, needless to mention.
After Chu Kun achieved the realm of the Third Heaven Dharma Altar this year, he gradually began to attract attention both inside and outside the Tianshi Mansion.
He was originally from the Chu tribe in Suzhou, and entered the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain to study Taoism.
With a slight improvement, it will naturally attract attention, and the attention is not only coming from the Chu family.
Yuan Mobai rarely opens the door to accept disciples.
As a result, the success rate of his students is so high that it is difficult for others not to pay attention to him.
As a result, Wang Guiyuan, who is usually low-key, also attracted the attention of the outside world.
From a certain perspective, he was even highlighted by Lei Jun and Chu Kun.
Some people think that it is quite rare for two of Yuan Mobai's disciples to become talented, and it is normal for the other one to be relatively mediocre.
But there are also people who feel that Yuan Mobai will not be fooled easily, and the seemingly low-key disciple may also be outstanding.
When there is discussion, there is enthusiasm.
Coupled with His Highness King Wu's special opinion, Wang Daozhang has also become a little angry recently, which makes him quite helpless.
"I don't dare to accept it. Senior brother is too generous with the reward." Lei Jun's expression did not change.
Chu Kun lowered his head and looked at his feet, pretending that the matter had nothing to do with him.
Wang Guiyuan looked at the two people in front of him who were not afraid of boiling water, and shook his head helplessly.
Lei Jun took two more rolls in his arms and put them down, and then asked: "Brother, does master have some free time now?"
Wang Guiyuan: "I'm back home, you can go directly."
Lei Jun nodded: "Senior brother Li Xuan has returned to the mountain and asked to meet the master."
Wang Guiyuan sighed: "It's a troubled autumn, and the rain is about to come."
Farewell to his two senior brothers, Lei Jun went to see his master Yuan Mobai.
"It's rare for Senior Nephew Chongxuan to come back, so of course I want to meet him." Yuan Mobai said calmly: "Tomorrow morning, I will wait for him at Gaogong Pavilion."
Lei Jun: "Yes, Master."
Yuan Mo Bai said: "Xiaotang's nephew has made arrangements for her, so she doesn't need to worry about her future safety. But whether she can survive the natural disaster depends on herself."
After saying that, he stood up, walked to the window, looked at the frost-covered branches in the dead of winter, and said nothing for a long time.
Lei Jun stood silently behind Yuan Mobai, not disturbing the other party.
“Third Senior Uncle, Third Senior Brother, they finally crossed that line.”
After a long time, Yuan Mobai slowly spoke: "What is supposed to come is coming."
Lei Jun nodded silently.
Although Li Song and Li Ziyang did not mention anything about Tang Xiaotang in their external statements, Lei Jun's master and disciples all knew that they had gone for Tang Xiaotang before.
They even leaked the news to Tang Xiaotang’s enemy, Tian Linlong, the elder of Yinshan Cave in the Southern Wilderness, not only to have an extra helper, but also to find someone to take the blame for them afterwards.
Although in the end they couldn't even find which way the door of Tang Xiaotang's retreat cave opened.
But as Yuan Mobai said, the Li family finally took the initiative to cross that line.
More than a hundred years ago, there were two civil wars in Tianshi Mansion.
Over the next hundred years or so, there were ups and downs, and disputes often occurred. In the end, everyone still maintained a situation of fighting without breaking up.
But just like the civil strife in Shushan earlier.
After contradictions, conflicts, suspicions, and disputes accumulate to a certain extent, they must eventually be resolved.
Possibly, the direct trigger is very simple or even trivial.
But the scene after everything is ignited cannot be predicted and controlled by one or two people.
It’s just that Tang Xiaotang died in the natural disaster.
As long as she successfully ascends to the eighth heaven realm and returns to the mountain, not only Lei Jun, but also Yuan Mobai will not deliberately cover up for the Li family.
It is true that Yuan Mobai does not want to see another internal strife in the Tianshi Mansion.
But since the Li family has taken this step first, the prelude to the war is destined to be kicked off.
With Tang Xiaotang’s temper, there is no room for forbearance or waiting.
Knowing that Li Song and Li Ziyang were going to give her a "big gift" when she was in seclusion, if she didn't reciprocate, she wouldn't be Tang Xiaotang.
“Master…” Lei Jun looked at Yuan Mobai’s back.
Yuan Mobai turned around, his expression had returned to calm, and he smiled again: "Actually, it's not that surprising." Seeing this, Lei Jun didn't say much and changed the subject: "I just don't know, it's the young senior sister who is more... Faster, the second uncle is faster."
Yuan Mobai nodded lightly: "Yes."
The young man in purple took a few steps and sat down in the chair again: "Since this end is inevitable, we can only deal with it calmly. When internal troubles arise, we must beware of external troubles to avoid internal and external troubles."
Lei Jun was thoughtful when he heard the words.
Yuan Mobai continued: "The Blood River Sect has become active again and we have to guard against it.
Not only in Bashu earlier, but also in the Huaishan Mountains, there were also traces of descendants of the Blood River lineage. "
Lei Jun: "Yes, I will remember Master's teachings."
Yuan Mobai: "Then, Huang Tiandao..."
Lei Jun: “In recent years, we have rarely heard news about Huang Tiandao.”
In that battle about six years ago, Huang Tiandao was defeated, the Supreme Elder Yu Qingling died, the head Taiping Taoist was severely injured, and many of his followers were killed or injured.
In the following few years, little news about Huang Tiandao spread.
After the situation in Tianshi Mansion stabilized, although they continued to pursue the wanted Taoist disciple Huang Tian, the gains were limited.
According to past experience, the other party has gone underground again, conducting more cautious and low-key activities to recuperate and regenerate strength.
“The disappearance of Senior Nephew Yuan Zhen, and the news of Second Senior Sister and Senior Nephew Xiaotang’s retreat have spread out one after another. Recently, there has been some movement in Huang Tiandao.” Yuan Mobai said slowly.
Lei Jun understood: "They also smelled the renewed murderous intent on Longhu Mountain."
Yuan Mobai said: "Huang Tiandao has been very secretive in recent years, and our sect is not aware of their internal changes, but since they are calm and thinking about action again, I think they have plans to take advantage of the troubled waters."
For the monastic community, six years is still a short period of time.
Even though the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is surging now and his practice is progressing faster, six years is generally not enough time for Huang Tiandao, who has been seriously injured, to immediately restore his old appearance or undergo earth-shaking changes.
It's just that when something goes wrong, there's probably a reason for it.
“More than a hundred years are enough to change a lot of things.”
Yuan Mobai looked at Lei Jun and sighed softly: "For the Li family, maybe we have the same surname as Huang Tiandao, but as of now, Tianshi Mansion is Tianshi Mansion, and Huang Tiandao is Huang Tiandao. Some relationships are not so easy to repair and make amends after all.”
Lei Jun nodded slightly.
He knew what Yuan Mobai meant.
The so-called Tianshi Mansion is Tianshi Mansion, and Huang Tiandao is Huang Tiandao, which does not mean a sectarian view.
It is true that the Tianshi Mansion is reborn and Li Wai is fighting.
At first glance, it seems that the descendants of foreign surnames in Tianshi Mansion have the same demands as Huang Tiandao. They all face the common enemy Li, and there seems to be a basis for cooperation.
But if you want to let go of the past, it is not as simple as sitting down and talking.
It is not simply that Li and Huang Tiandao have been entangled for more than a hundred years.
In recent years, the Tianshi Mansion as a whole has fought and killed many times with Huang Tiandao.
Not to mention how many people were killed and how much hatred was left in the **** civil war during the time of division.
Just over the next hundred years or so, the two sides’ hands were stained with each other’s blood.
You killed my master.
I will kill your apprentice.
Or the other way around.
If at the beginning, there were still a few people who had some sympathy with each other, now, basically, only the orthodoxy battle and the cleaning up of the family are left.
Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion has had its ups and downs over the years, and the two most antagonistic enemies are the Jiangzhou Lin Clan and Huang Tiandao.
Lei Jun did not have any relatives or friends who died because of Huang Tiandao.
But not just one or two of Huang Tiandao's disciples died in his hands...
Perhaps, after there is no more Li, there will be a little more room for subtle changes.
But that is destined to be a tortuous and long process, full of unpredictable and unexpected crises.
If nothing else, the leaders of other top powers, even if they do not directly deal with the Tianshi Mansion, will probably continue to secretly support Huang Tiandao and create obstacles for the Tianshi Mansion, rather than sit back and watch the Taoist Fu Lu sect completely merge.
"You don't need to think too much about these things for the time being. You have just returned to the mountain and need some rest."
Yuan Mobai smiled and said: "Speaking of which, you have accumulated a lot of merit this time. You should be able to enter the Shangqing Lei Mansion Cave again. Are you considering going, or should you continue to accumulate?"
Monks who are below the sixth level of Tianshi Mansion have a very rare opportunity to enter the cave of Shangqing Lei Mansion.
Like Lei Jun, he only went in once when he was just given the urn.
Next, you need to accumulate merit to a certain level before you have the chance to go again.
However, he had made great achievements in the previous war, so Yuan Mobai mentioned it.
The meritorious service does not come from sitting in the Senryu Palace.
It's not even about helping Tang Xiaotang protect the Dharma, which cannot be made public for the time being.
Lei Jun's meritorious service was that he risked his life and attracted a great scholar from the seventh heaven realm of the Lin tribe to make an exception and go to Xianliu Mountain to kill him.
As a result, Yuan Mobai was given the opportunity to reduce the number of Jiangzhou Lin tribe's three-day masters by one person.
No matter how confident Yuan Mobai was at the time, there was no doubt that Lei Jun, who acted as a bait, was risking his own life.
Hence, when it comes to rewarding one's merits afterwards, it is natural that Xiaolei Taoist Master should have a share.
The accumulated merits and deeds are enough for him to enter the Leifu Cave of Shangqing again.
“It just so happens that I am willing to go to the cave of Shangqing Lei Mansion.” Lei Jun replied.
Yuan Mobai nodded: "After getting ready, you can leave at any time."
Lei Jun said goodbye to his master and returned to his home.
He nursed himself back to health for a period of time, allowing his essence, energy, and spirit to gradually reach their peak.
I heard that during this period, Li Xuan visited Yuan Mobai twice.
Lei Jun didn’t ask much about what they talked about specifically.
But there are no more ups and downs on the mountain for the time being.
It’s just that the depressing feeling of the impending storm has gradually become impossible to hide, and even most of the young disciples can feel it.
As usual, Lei Jun went to the top of the main peak of Longhu Mountain when the agreed date arrived.
The high-ranking elder responsible for opening the Shangqing Lei Mansion cave today is the fourth uncle Yao Yuan.
Elder Yao, who has been relatively low-key in recent years, calmly looked at the disciples in front of him: "Everyone is ready."
It is a coincidence that among the people who entered the Shangqing Lei Mansion cave this time, there was Zhang Jingzhen.
Zhang Jingzhen is not only a monk at the sixth level of Heavenly Daoyin realm, but also a direct disciple of the former Heavenly Master. He has at least one guaranteed chance to enter the Shangqing Lei Mansion Cave Heaven every year.
When Lei Jun entered the cave for the first time, she came along with him. She never thought that they would meet him again this time.
“It can be regarded as the first level of fate, Junior Brother Lei.” Zhang Jingzhen smiled.
Lei Jun: "Yes, I have to trouble Senior Sister Zhang again this time."
Zhang Jingzhen: “Everyone takes care of each other.”
There are no three-day disciples accompanying us on this trip, only a few people, all of whom have achieved three-day cultivation. Everyone can take care of themselves by then, and there is no need to worry more.
“Speaking of fate, it is indeed mysterious.”
Lei Jun looked to the other side. There was actually a second old acquaintance among the travelers this time: "Brother Luo, please take care of me."
Luo Haoran smiled and said, "I feel sorry for you. I hope I won't trouble you and Senior Sister Zhang."
His situation is different from that of Lei Jun and Zhang Jingzhen. He did not gain the opportunity to enter the Lei Mansion Cave of the Shangqing Dynasty through accumulated merit.
Each disciple who is given a chance to be a disciple can get an opportunity after being given a chance for the first time, and Luo Haoran is no exception.
But what is special about him is that after he was given the nun earlier, he did not enter the Shangqing Leifu Cave like Fang Jian, Xia Qing and others.
At that time, Luo Haoran immediately went into seclusion to practice hard, preparing for the disaster in the chasm between the third and fourth heavens.
After he successfully formed his own Yuan Talisman, he warmed up his magic power and became familiar with his own changes, and then he went out to help people control floods not long after.
After that, he stayed outside the mountain and caught up with Longhu Mountain to start a war with the Jiangzhou Lin tribe. Luo Haoran directly participated in the war outside Poyang Daze.
So much so that after several years, he still hadn’t taken advantage of the opportunity he had when he was first taught the urn to enter the Shangqing Lei Mansion Cave Heaven.
Now that the war in Poyang Daze has subsided, Luo Haoran finally returned to the ancestral court of Shanmen after a period of rest.
Finally settling down, he can make up for the opportunity he owed previously.
“Everyone takes care of each other, and there is no trouble between fellow disciples.”
Lei Jun raised his head and looked at the sky while speaking.
I saw streaks of purple thunder falling from the sky and being led into the mountains.
There was a faint flash of light in the mountain, and a huge talisman array emerged.
As the talisman array rotates, countless talismans fly, carrying the purple thunder falling from the sky.
“Third Master Uncle heals the wounds and draws in the power of the cave, but it will not cause any serious harm to the Shangqing Lei Mansion Cave.”
At this time, Elder Yao also looked at the thunder falling in the distance: "After you enter, just don't get close to Biyou Fairy Mountain without permission."
Lei Jun and others all agreed.
Li Song failed to steal the chicken but lost the rice. He failed to find Tang Xiaotang. Instead, he lost several of his proud disciples. He was even injured and retreated to Longhu Mountain in embarrassment.
The Tianluo has been exhausted, and he has no better way to determine Tang Xiaotang's specific position in a short period of time.
At the moment, the only thing to do is to seize the time to heal.
Going straight into the Shangqing Leifu Cave to recuperate would naturally be the best, but that way would be closed inside and outside, and information would be blocked.
So Li Song retreated and did the next best thing, drawing the spiritual power from the cave to his own cave, and then recuperating in his own cave.
Lei Jun acted as if nothing had happened, and let Yao Yuan cast a spell to open the cave door, and then entered the Shangqing Lei Mansion Cave with Zhang Jingzhen, Luo Haoran and others.
In the cave sky, there is still a purple sky and earth, and everything between the sky and the earth is beautiful.
The people who came in this time were all middle-three-day monks.
Everyone said hello to each other and then went their separate ways.
Lei Jun’s main goal this time was the fairy bamboo forest.
However, after he entered the Shangqing Leifu Cave, the light ball in his mind suddenly flashed again and the words appeared:
【Misfortune lies in the individual, blessing lies in the cave sky, thunder shakes the sky, it is an auspicious time. 】
Lei Jun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he read these sixteen words.
He then looked at the next three fortunes:
【If you win the lottery, go to Guhongxiu at midnight, you can get a fourth-grade opportunity, no risks, no future troubles, good luck. 】
【If you win the lottery, go to the Holy Wave Pond at midnight, you will get a fifth-grade opportunity, no risks, no future troubles, good luck. 】
【Winning the lottery, traveling elsewhere in the cave or missing midnight to Guhongxiu and Shengbo Pool, there is no additional gain, no additional risk, flat. 】
Okay, two of them are the top picks.
Furthermore, there is no winning or losing lot.
Following the danger of the lottery coming out with three numbers last time, this time the auspicious stars are indeed shining brightly, and the fortune is quite warm.
only…
The misfortune lies in the individual, the blessing lies in the cave.
Could it be that Elder Li Songli was unlucky personally, and using the power of the cave to heal his wounds caused some changes in the cave, resulting in the birth of two winning numbers... Lei Jun couldn't help but look weird.
