Chapter 495: Changes in the Mortal World

"The Realized One is back!"

Wan Xinrong and others stopped their work one after another and bowed to Lin Jue.

The teenager also ran over from afar, dirty.

"You sit there."

Lin Jue first pointed to a meditation cushion and said to the girl. Fearing that she would be uneasy, he gently pressed her shoulder and sent her a step forward, then said:

"I went to Yunzhou to find clouds this time. By chance, I found a cloud of heavenly punishment divine thunder. This is a woman I met who has fate with me. She is not Han, and her name is Pumei. She also has the heart to seek the Dao, so I brought her back for the time being. Please take care of her."

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

Several people bowed to the girl.

The girl was dark and thin, at a loss, and could only glance at Lin Jue.

"Don't be too restrained, you just look there." Lin Jue pointed to the side, "Xu Yi, come over."

The teenager who planted trees also came over.

"His name is Xu Yi, and he also intends to follow me to cultivate the Law and seek the Dao. I let him plant flowers in the mountain. After planting them sparsely, I will take him as an apprentice." Lin Jue said with a smile, "I don't know who will be first and who will be last, who will be big and who will be small in the future. In any case, under my gate, there is only mutual support, no fighting. This is the tradition of my master's gate. Since you have left home, without father or mother, treat each other as brothers and sisters. In the future, whether on the road of cultivation or the road of life, there will be some care and some connection."

The two looked at each other.

Xu Yi came first after all, and he lived in this place, often coming to the outskirts of Mount Feng to chop wood, so the sense of alienation was not so strong, and he was relatively stable.

However, the teenager was alone, always lonely.

Suddenly having a companion, his heart was both uneasy and happy.

The change in Pumei's feelings was much greater.

Coming to a strange deep mountain alone to cultivate the Dao and learn spells, if there was a companion, her heart would undoubtedly be much more stable.

Thinking that this teenager was a few years younger than her, since he could live here freely, why couldn't she? So the remaining anxiety in her heart was much less.

"Leaving for three months, the changes here are not small." Lin Jue looked at the cliff and surroundings.

"Reporting to the Realized One. After the Realized One left, we, one after another, learned the divine walking technique. Wan and Daoist Tao also followed the Thunder God to learn the wall-walking technique, so we thought about building the houses first." Wan Xinrong came out and replied to Lin Jue, "Daoist Tao knows some carpentry work, and we also helped people in the village build houses when we were young. We also asked craftsmen from below the mountain and the capital, thinking that we couldn't build them too messy and ugly to smear the Realized One's face. After discussion, we started work."

"The changes in the mortal world below the mountain are not small, right?"

"Great Jiang perished, perished in the first month of this year."

Wan Xinrong opened his mouth and it was the end of a dynasty:

"At the end of last year, before the capital fell, the imperial court only had one capital left. North of Qinzhou belonged to the North, and south of it was taken under the command of the Yue King. Although they defended the city, in fact, the hearts of the people were scattered. It was just that both sides were wary of each other and did not easily attack the city. It is said that ministers often went out to communicate with the enemy, and the generals defending the city had no intention to fight again. The people in the city kept fleeing, and only the emperor was willing to die defending it.

"At that time, the North and South sides were separated by the Wei Shui, confronting and killing each other.

"Previously, the imperial court focused on defending against the North. The Northern army was exhausted and suffered heavy losses. In addition, the harvest in the North was not good in the past two years, and they could not collect taxes, and Luo Gong did not allow his soldiers to loot wantonly after breaking the city, so they were once beaten back steadily by the Yue King's troops, who were well-equipped and had a large number of accompanying merchants.

Wan Xinrong knew the relationship between this Lin Realized One and Luo Gong, so he spoke a little more detailed.

"However, at the beginning of this year, in the Battle of Jinping County, according to the accompanying merchants who returned, Luo Gong inserted his spear as a boundary and declared that he would never retreat behind the spear, blocking the impact of the Yue King's elite soldiers. Later, he personally led his personal soldiers to charge, and in one go, he actually scattered the Yue King's army formation. Then, with the advantage of elite cavalry, he seized the opportunity of the battle, defeated the Yue King's army in one fell swoop, and took advantage of the victory to pursue and kill for eight hundred miles.

"It is said that the Wei Shui was dyed red, and I don't know how many elite soldiers, strong generals, and strange people and different scholars were killed or injured.

"We followed the Realized One's words and did not intervene, just cultivated well in the mountain and built houses."

Wan Xinrong said, and could not help but sigh.

Originally, he was still greedy for the secular world, but now he was only glad that he followed Lin Realized One to cultivate in the mountain. Otherwise, in such a battlefield, although it was full of fame and wealth, among the corpses lying all over the ground, people like them with some skills were not necessarily valuable.

Lin Jue was thinking about those gods.

I fear it was not just elite soldiers, strong generals, and strange people and different scholars. On the rolling white clouds that could not be seen in the mortal world, True Lords must have also suffered casualties.

Who could defeat that Divine Lord Fuchi?

"When Luo Gong was chasing south, he sent a general named Lang Zhili to attack the capital. That general can also be considered our old acquaintance. I don't know if the Realized One still has an impression. He was a martial artist who followed Luo Gong to Jinping and the Northwest, good at using a long-handled golden melon hammer and a flail. The name is elegant. The capital was broken by his hands, almost without any effort.

"That emperor usually acted like a tyrant, but at this time he had a bit of blood, committing suicide at the gate of the imperial palace.

"We followed the Realized One's words, entered the capital, and conveyed the Realized One's Dharma decree, not allowing the army to burn, kill, and loot wantonly in the city. That Lang Zhili knew the Realized One's power, killed several captains, and promised to loot the palace treasury and the mansions of the nobles, and then he would reward them, which calmed things down.

"However, that Yue King is lucky. He hasn't died yet, but retreated from Qinzhou, still occupying half of the south, currently resisting Luo Gong's army in Zhongzhou, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack."

The Great Jiang dynasty finally came to an end.

This also meant that the incense of the mortal world had to make a new choice. The position of the contemporary Heavenly Lord as the master of the three realms and nine heavens had come to an end, and he had become the de facto former Heavenly Lord.

Lin Jue only felt emotion for a while, then turned his head:

"How are your flowers planted?"

"Planted some, not full." Xu Yi lowered his head and said, "I am not in a hurry to plant."

"Why?"

"It's easy to fail if you plant too fast. And before winter, the flowers didn't bloom, so it was hard to find them on the mountain. Even if I found them, I couldn't distinguish what kind of tree they were, because, because they need to be planted separately, so I waited for them to bloom."

"Then do you have any comprehension?"

"To plant them alive and recognize them accurately, you need to be careful and patient."

"Continue..."

Lin Jue smiled at him, and then said to Pumei:

"They are all easy to get along with. You stay here, don't worry. And in the next few days, you are responsible for fetching water, responsible for chopping wood, and if they want to cook, you are responsible for burning fire."

This is a way to get familiar with this place.

It is also a process for the heart to settle down.

Lin Jue saw Pumei nod and smiled slightly:

"But there is also a way to fetch water and chop wood."

"Ah?"

"Fetch water from upstream. Spring is warm and snow is melting, so be careful of insects and snakes. If you encounter tree stumps in the mountain, they might be the seats of mountain spirits and monsters, so don't sit on them easily. This is deep in the mountains, and there are many spirits and monsters. If you accidentally encounter them, don't be afraid, just say you are my attendant."

"Oh..."

"It's the same for chopping wood. You can't chop any tree you see. If it's a small living tree, you must let it go and give it a chance to grow. If it's a large living tree, you can only chop the side branches at the bottom to prune them. If there are no side branches at the bottom, you can't chop. It's best to find dead trees that have dried up. This is also easy to burn, no need to dry."

Lin Jue said leisurely, with a sense of aftertaste in his eyes.

"I remember."

"You go get busy."

The dark cloud slowly descended, carrying lightning and thunder, carrying the Daoist to fly to the pavilion above.

Lin Jue looked up and glanced—

The pavilion had three floors, all with doors, windows, balconies, and corridors. The third floor's doors and windows were closed, the second floor's windows were open, and the bottom floor's doors and windows were wide open, and the mountain wind came and went freely.

This pavilion was good in every way, except for one thing.

That is what Xiao Xiao Shimei Ziyun said, there are no tiles on it.

But it does not leak wind or rain.

Because it is not an ordinary house, but carved from spiritual wood, so although there are no tiles on top for the time being, it is not leaking, but a whole piece of wooden board.

However, tiles as decoration are also necessary.

How can such things be done by his own hands?

Naturally, it is handed over to the disciples.

One plants flowers, and one collects tiles.

"Just right!"

Lin Jue thought so, revealing a smile.

Subsequently, he did not return to the pavilion, but with a burst of thunder, he disappeared with a swish.

Mount Feng Red Leaf Temple.

Ziyun, in a Daoist robe, was conscientiously building a road. Her master was meditating and cultivating on the mountain top beside her, saying that he wanted to meditate in different places and collect more spiritual rhyme. In her opinion, it looked more like a supervisor.

It was just that she misunderstood her master.

Junior sister just felt that watching people build roads was interesting.

Suddenly, she vaguely heard some thunder.

Ziyun immediately looked up and shouted: "Master! It's going to rain! Our temple's clothes and bamboo shoots haven't been collected yet!"

Junior sister also looked up.

But she saw a person and a fox standing on the cloud, both looking down, it was the senior brother who returned from looking for clouds, coming here to show off to her.

"Boom..."

The thunder cloud descended, and the thunder was deafening.

Junior sister looked up indifferently: "This dark cloud suits senior brother."

"Third Shixiong sister's words are really like third senior brother."

"How is senior brother's words not like that?" Junior sister sat still, but also looked at the cloud under his feet.

Ziyun below also looked up high.

But she saw that the thunder cloud was not big, but it was exactly the same as the dark clouds that were gloomy and solid in the summer in the sky. The clouds and mist at the edge were rolling, and lightning was flashing in the middle, with thunder, which was quite extraordinary.

"This is what I found by fate in Yunzhou. It can fly a thousand miles in half an hour, and even those who have not attained the Dao can ride it. After I refine and nourish it well, it can split off another one. It's just that if the split cloud is to be ridden by others, unless you personally tell it every time, you have to be like other immortals and True Lords, making a token token." Lin Jue said, "I thought that this is a thunder cloud, so the token should be made of spiritual gold, but all my spiritual gold was used to make armor, so I came to ask junior sister, besides cultivation, have you comprehended any unusual metal spiritual energy in the mountain?"

"I have spiritual gold here."

"Give it to me quickly." Lin Jue was not polite, "After I finish it, I will also give you one."

"Will I be electrocuted and have numb feet?"

"Naturally not."

"Follow me to get it."

After getting the spiritual gold, he could make the token.

This is also a method commonly used by gods.

Most gods in the sky naturally have the ability to ride clouds and mist, but most divine officials, divine clerks, celestial soldiers, and divine generals can only control ordinary clouds and mist. Some servants and Daoist boys who follow True Lords and Great Deities to the sky may not have the ability to ride clouds. In this case, if the Husheng Husheng Zhenjun has his own cloud, he will give the servant or Daoist boy the ability to control white clouds through tokens or special spells, and even split off a small one for them to use in special times.

Lin Jue was imitating this method. ===== CHAPTER 496 =====
