"Punishment"

Chapter 473 "Punishment"

It's like deciding whether to eat dried tofu or green vegetables at night.

In a few words, it was settled like this.

So simple, so... an understatement.

Even Qin Zicang and He He didn't fully react, Jiang Nan, who was originally alone, leaped dozens of steps and rode on top of them.

——Although one of these two people is one of the Nine Palace Lords of the Temple of the Earth, and the other is the Lord Shengli of the Hall of Human Beings, they also hold great power.

But to be honest, their identities are comparable to the seven battle immortals in the Heavenly Palace, but they are a head lower than the Heavenly Palace.

Of course, this is not a problem, and Qin Zicang and He He are not very keen on power.

The problem is... this is against the rules!
From the establishment of the Li Palace to the present, for countless thousands of years, how could there be a palace master who was a child under a hundred years old?
Not only that, but he was also an outsider—Li Gong Shangxia, who didn't even know that there was such a person as Jiangnan a year ago.

But Li Wang's words have been spoken, so how can it be their turn to talk?

"So, very good."

King Li narrowed his eyes, flipped his wrist, took out a blue-gray stone order, and handed it to Jiangnan, "This is Xinyue's chief palace order, so you can take it back to the world on earth. Fill up the cracks in the sea of ​​burial, and then confer titles on you."

Jiang Nan took a look, and saw that the token was less than a foot long, shaped like a fish belly, with a rough surface, and the whole body was carved with ancient cloud patterns, exuding an extremely ancient atmosphere, as if it had experienced endless vicissitudes.

And on the front of Shi Ling, there is a word "Heaven" that looks like a natural workmanship, impressively above it!

Just looking at it, Jiangnan felt as if there was a majestic sky hanging down to the top of his head, majestic and solemn!

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Nan bowed and nodded.

And just when he was about to leave, King Li said again, "There is one more thing to trouble you——I am retreating this time, the shortest is a few months, and the longest is a few years, but Xinyue has entered reincarnation and is reborn as a human being. Soon, If I have not left the customs, I hope you will go to the mortal world to bring him back."

At that moment, Jiang Nan's face became weird.

Although his relationship with King Li might be considered good, he had a problem with Fairy Xinyue—that woman was planning to kill him at the beginning, and Jiang Nan was going to kill her with seven arrows in the end.

But after thinking about it, he didn't say much, agreed and left.

Thus, in Nuo Da's Li Palace, there were only Li Wang and two immortals left.

"Your Majesty, isn't this...inappropriate?" Qin Zicang also wanted to go with Jiangnan, and didn't understand why Li Wang insisted on Jiangnan to pick up Fairy Xinyue who was reincarnated.

"No, that's what I want." Li Wang slowly shook his head, "The conflict between Xinyue and him has always been a thorn in the way between Ligong and Jiangnan. I hope that Xinyue's reincarnation can completely eliminate the grudge between him and Ligong. .”

So, since King Li said so, the two immortals stopped talking.

"Why? Judging from your appearance, it seems that you still don't understand?"

King Li walked to the ancient coffin and looked at the two of them, "Do you think I shouldn't let Jiangnan sit in the main hall of the sky?"

After listening, Qin Zicang and Li He glanced at each other, the former took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, of course you have considered your decision, but I am stupid - I still think that Jiangnan's visit to Li Palace is too short, and the details are unclear, so it shouldn't be Immediately entrusted with such a heavy responsibility..."

"Heavy duty?" Li Wang listened, but there was a strange look in his eyes, "You all think this is a heavy duty?"

Qin Zicang and Li He were stunned.

They suddenly couldn't understand what Li Wang was saying.

——Even one of the main halls in charge of Li Dao's three palace halls, one person is less than ten thousand people, isn't that considered a heavy responsibility?

"The location of the main hall of heaven is just a transition." Li Wang shook his head, "What if I say—maybe one day, he will become king?"

At that moment, it was like a thunderbolt!
The shock made Qin Zicang and Tiehe's heads buzz!
"Your Majesty! What are you talking about?!"

"Your Majesty, this is not something that can be joked casually!"

At this moment, they no longer cared about etiquette and respect, and spoke anxiously!
"joke?"

King Li's eyes were clear, but there was no sign of fainting, "No, I'm serious—whether Jiangnan is qualified to be the king of Li Dao, you don't count, and I don't count."

He pointed to the ancient coffin behind him, "It's what you say."

——Orthodoxy.

In the coffin behind Li Wang's back is the entire Li Dao orthodoxy.

"What... do you mean?" He opened his mouth and murmured.

King Li waved his hand, "Did you all see the reincarnation on the Tongtian Dao earlier?"

The two nodded.

"Then you two think that at that time, Zhen had the talent for cultivating the Tao?" Li Wang continued to ask.

Qin Zicang and Li He looked at each other, and cupped their hands again and again, "Your Majesty is unparalleled in the world, no one can match..."

"Come on, come on."

Prince Li rubbed his ears, and interrupted the two of them, "There's no need to say those polite words. As you can see——when I was in the Southern Kingdom, my talent for cultivating Taoism is not mediocre, it can only be said to be almost non-existent. But it is such a Zhen who has become the king of one way, why do you think?"

The two immediately shook their heads like rattles—even if they had guessed something in their hearts, they didn't dare to say it in person.

"Because of orthodoxy."

Li Wang took a deep breath and spoke slowly,
"In that era, it wasn't just me, not just the southern kingdom, not just the human race in the world. The suffering of the ancient immortals has been suffering for a long time. Even the entire boundless way was endlessly destroyed, squeezed, and devoured by them."

"So, the orthodoxy of this world finally came into being."

"And at that time, it happened that I made the choice to sacrifice my queen and princess to preserve the southern kingdom. Therefore, under the hatred of the ancient immortals and the righteousness of writing a sorrow, the orthodoxy recognized me."

He looked at the two immortals, and said word by word, "It's not that I chose the Taoism, but the Taoism... chose me."

After the words were finished, Qin Zicang and Li He looked at each other speechlessly.

After a long time, Qin Zicang smiled wryly and said, "You mean... the current orthodoxy also chooses Jiangnan?"

"exactly."

King Li nodded slightly, "Maybe it's because he made a better and more perfect choice in my reincarnation, and the Li Dao orthodoxy left in my obsession recognized him."

He pointed to the ancient coffin behind him, "From the moment I came to the Dali Palace, I could feel the orthodoxy of Li Dao. In other times, I could feel that apart from me, no one can control it except me. But now, there is one more person."

"—Jiangnan."

Thus, all the ins and outs were revealed along with the ancient stories.

Only now did Qin Zicang and Yihe understand Li Wang's intention to establish Jiangnan as the main hall of heaven.

——Since it is an orthodox choice, there is nothing wrong with it.

Who else knows better than the orthodoxy itself whether the people it chooses are harmful to the apostasy?

But here is the problem.

"Then...how about you, Your Majesty?" Tie He asked.

——There is only one orthodoxy, but now there are two people who are chosen.

If Jiang Nan really became the king of Li Dao, what about Nan Hao?Do you pick chrysanthemums in melon fields for retirement?

"I just said that I have plans to train Jiangnan to be king." Li Wang waved his hand, "It's not that I want to pass on the throne and moral tradition to him right away. It's just...to make some preparations.

After a pause, he looked towards the dark and boundless zenith, "After all, who knows whether I will be able to return safely from the expedition to Gandaogou?"

Like enlightenment, Qin Zicang and He He finally understood what he meant—Your Majesty, it is time to prepare for a rainy day.

After a long time, Qin Zicang said bitterly, "Your Majesty, do you have to go?"

"of course."

King Li didn't hesitate at all.

"Revenge is something that must never be given up."

"Because of this, I was just me, not someone else."

So, silence.

The two immortals lowered their heads, not knowing what to say.

"Okay, you guys go up too." Finally, King Li waved his hand, "I just leave here alone."

After finishing the words, he stretched out his hand and patted the top of the ancient coffin!
In an instant, the sky was shaken!
The coffin, which had not been opened for tens of thousands of years, was slowly opened with the dull sound of iron and stone rubbing against each other.

The boundless and stalwart aura seeps out of it!

Qin Zicang and Ji He bowed and knelt down, then turned into streamers and escaped from the Great Li Palace, returning to the world above ground.

Wang Li looked into the chaotic and hazy coffin, with a look of nostalgia in his eyes, and slowly stepped in.

buzzing...

The next moment, the lid of the coffin was closed again, taking everything inside.

The Dali Hall was plunged into a bone-piercing darkness.

——Like the darkness before dawn, waiting for the dawn.
.
At the same time, off the road.

Countless seemingly irrelevant things happened slowly, and the situation changed.

——In a peaceful and peaceful mortal city, in the mansion of a wealthy family, a crying baby fell to the ground with a burst of joy;

In Yunzhou, above the endless ocean, Qixiu and Hu Jiuwei were still resisting the sea of ​​burial, but they never noticed that under the endless ocean, a faint blue light flashed;
There is also the palace.

After the final test of leaving the palace, many Tianjiao returned to the earthly world.

——At this time, Ji He and Qin Zicang hadn't returned yet, and the entire Li Palace was still under martial law.

And when some "ridiculous" news came out from the mouths of these returning arrogances, the entire Li Palace was in an uproar!
Someone broke through the reincarnation of the Dao of Heaven; Xinyue's "death" re-entered the reincarnation; the master plotted to seize the Tao; and finally, the most exciting thing-King Li, return!

There is one thing to say, if you tell anyone in Li Palace any news here, he will only think that the person who said it is somehow wrong.

What's more, all the almost impossible things are piled up together.

But there was more than one person who spread the news—dozens of talented people from all states were talking about it!

Sending out the possibility that these favored children of heaven will collectively suffer from madness, there is only one possibility left - what they said is true.

As a result, the entire palace was boiling.

Especially later, after Qin Zicang and He He returned, they confirmed the news.

It was like thunder on the ground, and the whole world was in an uproar!
Earth Palace.

An area where many Tianjiao stayed and rested, Cangyang Wu, Yuchinan and the six-eyed anaconda stayed here after they came back.

——Originally, the six-eyed anaconda could go back to Jiangnan's residence in Tiandian, but when he thought of Jiangnan knocking off the king's head, the six-eyed anaconda just felt that he didn't want to have anything to do with Jiangnan recently.

That guy is lucky and fateful, its newly broken body of a little snake can't stand tossing.

"You said... His Majesty really just forget it?"

In Nuo Da's palace, Cang Yang Wu sat at the table, frowning.

——If this had been changed a few months ago, he would have wished that Jiangnan would be slapped to death by Wang Li, but after experiencing the incident on Tongtian Dao, he has already regarded Jiangnan as a lifesaver.

"It is estimated that it is unlikely."

Yu Chinan also smiled wryly, "Although His Majesty doesn't look like he's really angry, the majesty of the king is unpredictable. Brother Jiang was left behind, so he can be spared the death penalty. I'm afraid it's a living crime. But one thing to say, what he did is true... It's a little too ridiculous."

"Hey, what are you worried about?"

The six-eyed anaconda shook its tail, "It's right that he won't die anyway, although he may have to suffer a lot—how do you think His Majesty King Li will punish him?"

Yu Chinan was taken aback for a moment, his brows were slightly frowned, and he faltered, "...to be imprisoned in the Great Prison, to swallow iron pills in hunger, and to drink copper juice when thirsty?"

Cangyang Wu shook his head, "It's too serious. It is rumored that His Majesty is not such a strict person. He will probably be fined to face the wall for a few years. Small punishment and big punishment."

The six-eyed anaconda rolled its eyes, "I think it's better to turn him into a snake demon, and use it as a mount for three to five years, so that he can feel what it's like to be ridden by someone."

Yu Chinan: "..."

Cangyang Wu: "..."

Publicly avenging private revenge belongs to yes.

"Forget it, no matter what, I'm afraid we won't see Brother Jiang in a short time." Yu Chinan waved his hand, "We can only pray for him, don't be tormented too badly by His Majesty."

After listening, the rest of the people and snakes all nodded.

But at this moment, a clear voice sounded from outside the palace.

"What blessing? What torment?"

Immediately, the two of them froze, and turned their heads together.

But just saw the coming man dressed in white, handsome and energetic.

——It is Jiangnan!
"Brother Jiang! Are you alright?" Cang Yangwu's eyes lit up, he got up quickly, and asked?
"Great luck! Really lucky!" Yu Chinan also heaved a sigh of relief.

"Jiangnan! I miss you! I haven't seen you for a while, I'm about to die!" The six-eyed green anaconda wrapped around his sleeve robe with a lot of emotion, and didn't relax for a moment.

Yu Chinan: "..."

Cangyang Wu: "..."

Damn, that's not what you said just now!
Jiang Nan tore off the six-eyed anaconda from his sleeve, and said viciously, "Don't think I didn't hear what you said just now—I tell you, you are dead."

Then, the six-eyed anaconda simply stopped pretending, and said with a strange smile, "Hey, this seat has transformed into a dragon, you may not be able to beat this seat now--call the uncle Liumu to listen, maybe this seat I’m so happy, I’m still willing to stay with you!”

Jiang Nan glared at him, ignored the crazy snake, looked at Yu Chi Nan and Cang Yang Wu, and replied: "Thanks to the two of you, there is no serious problem."

Finally, a stone hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground.

Yu Chinan was quite curious, and asked, "That is to say, that matter... His Majesty just forget it?"

"It can't be said."

Jiangnan shook his head.

Immediately, the two of them became tense once again—the punishments of Li Gong’s criminal law are not only decapitation and imprisonment, but also all kinds of strange punishments, such as abolishing cultivation base, exile and burial in the sea, etc.

Then, I saw Jiangnan scratching his head, "Your Majesty, he made me the lord of the palace."

"Oh, that's it, it's okay, it's okay, it's not a heavy punishment..." Cang Yangwu subconsciously waved his hand, but halfway through the sentence, he was dumbfounded.

react.

"Heaven... Palace... Lord?"
