Chapter 1002: Recruitment
While Wu Qi was refining magic weapons with the help of immeasurable merit in the void of the outer realm, Ao Buzun was entertaining guests in his Ancestral Dragon Palace.
The vast East China Sea is now full of twisting and writhing figures of giant dragons. Except for some of the other fish, shrimps, crabs and other spirits that are left behind to make food for the dragons, the rest have all been relocated to other waters. Even the dragon-level elders, who have the highest status in the dragon clan, don't know how many people there are in the dragon clan gathered in the East China Sea.
Anyway, not to mention the dragon clan who came from other forces to join them, the dragon clan, one of the eight Buddhist clans of heavenly dragons alone, is counted in one billion, and the number of their descendants is even more astonishing. The members of the dragon clan occupied the East China Sea, and the monstrous dragon energy swept up. The huge East China Sea was covered with water clouds of various colors all day long, and from time to time there were violent storms and even hail hurricanes.
On a small island in the middle of the East China Sea, an unprecedentedly gorgeous palace occupies the entire island that is hundreds of miles long and wide. This is the Zulong Palace. The colorful rays of light wrap around the huge palace, and the light shines on the entire East China Sea. This part of the palace on the island is only a small part of the Zulong Palace. In the depths of the sea next to the island, a large number of palaces are still being built. It is expected that the eventually completed Zulong Palace will cover an area of thousands of miles of sea.
The part of the palace that is exposed to the public is extremely gorgeous. Every brick and tile on it exudes the atmosphere of the nouveau riche. Every brick and tile seems to be roaring madly at people: "I am a rich man, you guys." They are all poor, poor, poor,!
Not even a blade of grass can be seen in the huge palace. All the grass and trees are carved from top-grade fairy stones and other precious crystals. Crystals worth tens of thousands of dollars, such as jade essence, jade roughness, Xuantian flame crystal, clear water soft crystal, green wood spirit crystal, etc., are carved into various colorful and exotic flower spots here, and are decorated in various gardens.
As for the base of the entire palace, it is a piece of vajra fritillary that has been tempered by Buddhist Zen methods for dozens of kalpas. This piece of vajra fritillary was refined by several ancient Buddhas in Buddhism with all their efforts. It was originally intended to add a rare treasure to Buddhism, the Tathagata the Great Sun, the Demon-Slaying Treasure Wheel. This round, wheel-shaped vajra fritillary is that However, in order to hire the eight tribes of the East China Sea Tianlong to return to Jing Dynasty to participate in the war, Ao Buzun unceremoniously used this worthless piece of vajra as a building material for his palace. .
The rare materials that several ancient Buddhas with strength equivalent to the Dao-breaking realm had spent dozens of calamities refining were actually spread on the ground as floor tiles. Anyone who saw the Zulong Palace with their own eyes would only be angry at Ao Buzun. of luxury.
But now that he has this wealth to waste, no one can blame him for his mistakes. Just for the sake of hiring dragon clan members, Buddhism gives Ao Buzun billions of top-quality fairy stones and countless other treasures every day. What does it mean for Ao Buzun to waste some materials to build a house?
In the main hall group on the west side of the Zulong Palace on the island, a Pearl Pavilion is particularly eye-catching. The body of this pavilion is made of transparent luminous pearls ranging from the size of a human head to the size of a fist. The shape of the pavilion is exquisite, using tens of millions of expensive luminous pearls, and the interior of the pavilion is as bright as day.
The four walls, the ground, and the ceiling are all emitting gleaming light. No one or thing will have any shadow here, and it has a miraculous effect in breaking all kinds of escape and invisibility techniques.
Lu Buwei sat in the Pearl Pavilion with drooped eyelids, waiting for Ao Buzun to appear.
One day, two days, three days. . . Lu Buwei waited for a full seven days and seven nights before Ao Buzun, yawning and disheveled, lazily emerged from the rolling black water and sat down next to Lu Buwei with his body tilted. Before Lu Buwei could speak, Ao Buzun had already slapped Lu Buwei hard on the shoulder: "Old Lu, I have an impression that you are a smart person, but I will give you three rules."
Raising a finger, Ao Buzun said sternly: "If you dare to ask me to lower the price, I will eat you.
Ao Buzun raised his second finger and sneered: "You dare to say that my child is not in a good position to fight, and I will eat you."
Raising his third finger, Lao Buzun yawned, blew out a smelly dragon's breath at Lu Buwei, and said lazily: "In short, if you want to gain any benefit from me, don't say anything, I will You wash and eat slowly. They say you are very smart and I have overused my brain recently, so I need to eat some brains from smart people to replenish my brain."
Lu Buwei is now only a low-level golden immortal. Ao Buzun's claw slapped him on the shoulder and almost broke him. He smiled bitterly and said cautiously: "What Zulong said is absolutely true. I have great benefits to tell Zulong from this trip."
Lu Buwei, who kept smiling bitterly, felt as if he was stuffed with coptis. Is this Ao Buzun completely unreasonable? It turns out that the senior officials of the Ling Dynasty also heard about all the weird things that happened when the Dragon Clan fought, so they sent Lu Buwei to try to reason with Ao Buzun. You can’t let the Dragon Clan take all the benefits and you are still pulling back behind your back. Bar? But Ao Buzun cut off Lu Buwei's words straight to the point. What else could he say? "What a great benefit?" Ao Buzun's eyes lit up: "Well" is Zhang Tengyun planning to give me all his women? Tsk, although I would rather eat a bite of fairy peaches than half a basket of rotten apricots, Zhang Tengyun's women all have the title of queen or concubine, so I still have some fun with them. "
Lu Buwei's eyes were so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "That's not the case."
I am afraid that Ao Buzun will say anything disrespectful." Lu Buwei said in a deep voice: "May I ask where the King of East China Sea is? "
Ao Buzun looked at Lu Buwei suspiciously: "I can't tell you that my master's actions are the biggest secret in the East China Sea. If I tell you that he is receiving an envoy from Buddhism... Well, I won't say anything. Moreover, you called him the wrong old man, you should call him the Great Emperor of Yan and Huang. After all, our Donghai now has a country of Yan and Huang, so my master is also the emperor!"
Lu Buwei's whole body was trembling, and he exclaimed: "He is receiving the Buddhist envoy?"
Ao Buzun's eyes rolled around for a while. He looked at Lu Buwei, whose face was uncertain, and said with a smile: "I don't know about this! Old Lu, did you go to the Donghai Palace and fail to see my master? Ah? This is as it should be. To tell you the truth, even if it is the envoy of the Buddhist sect, he must first give me enough benefits before he can see my master."
Lu Buwei's expression changed again, and he laughed softly: "May I ask how much benefit that bald donkey gave Zulong?"
Ao Buzun reached into his sleeve, and a foot-thick gift list appeared in his hand. He smiled and handed the gift list to Lu Buwei, and said proudly: "This is the door package they gave me. If there is not enough door package, I will not let you see the Lord."
After laughing three times, Ao Buzun turned into a stream of black water and disappeared without a trace.
Lu Buwei tremblingly opened the first page of the gift list. His body shivered and he almost fainted. He hurriedly flipped through the gift list and couldn't help but roared: "The bald donkey is shameless. He actually bribed Ao Buzun with generous gifts. This, this, isn't this going to drain Lingchao's family fortune? He even needs support from Heaven. Only the treasures of heaven and earth can satisfy the stomach of this dead loach.?"
The frowning Lu Buwei stayed in the Zhuguang Pavilion, while Ao Buzun turned into a stream of water and rushed to a Jade Smoke Pavilion in the palace complex on the east side of the apse. Opposite the Zhuguang Pavilion on the west side, the entire Jade Smoke Pavilion is made of the finest jade. The jade energy rises and turns into dense jade smoke. When the sun shines down, this dense atmosphere emits colorful light. If a person stays here permanently, he will The effect of prolonging life and whitening skin.
A man wearing a bun and a white monk's robe was sitting in the Jade Smoke Pavilion. When he saw Ao Buzun appear, he hurriedly stood up and clasped his hands together and said: "Senior Zhulong, the young monk finally met. It’s your turn.”
Ao Buzun swaggered and sat on the main seat, and said casually: "Little bald donkey... Ah, no, the Prime Minister has come all the way, why are you doing this? I have been busy with a lot of wives and concubines these days. I have children, so I don’t have time to meet with the Prime Minister. I have kept you waiting for a long time.
"
The man in monk's robe was shocked for a while. He was the prime minister in Jing Dynasty. What weird things hadn't been dealt with before? With a smile on his face, he said to Ao Buzun: "Having children and reproducing offspring is a major matter of human ethics. This little monk's matter is not urgent. It is not urgent."
Ao Buzun nodded with satisfaction. He looked at the man in monk robes and sneered: "If you have anything to say, just say it. Do you want to see my master, the former King of Donghai and now the Emperor of Yanhuang Kingdom?"
The man in monk's robe laughed: "Senior Zulong is really wise, I can't hide anything from you."
After pondering for a moment, the man in monk's robes led the man with a smile and said: "To be honest with you senior, our Buddhist sect intends to recruit the Yanhuang Kingdom. As long as the Yanhuang Kingdom is willing to defect to our Jing Dynasty, you can come up with any conditions you want from the Yanhuang Kingdom..."
Ao Buzun's eyes rolled, and he laughed and said: "This matter is very important, and I can't make the decision. You have to meet my master and have an interview with him. But, I might as well Let me tell you, without my help, you wouldn’t be able to see his old man, otherwise wouldn’t it be dangerous if you were an assassin?”
He reached into his sleeves and dug for a while, and a one-foot-thick gift slip that was exactly the same as the gift slip just given to Lu Buwei came out casually. Ao Buzun threw the gift slip into the arms of the monk-robed man and said with a big smile: "This is Ling Chao Lu Buwei As a bribe to me, I promised him to arrange a meeting between him and our master in a few days. Hey, hey, can you meet my master? This question, ah, hahahaha!"
Ao Buzun shouted and turned into a stream of black water and escaped into the ground. The man in monk's robe curiously opened the gift sheet and took a look. His body suddenly twitched and he cursed violently.
"Damn it, Lingchao has indeed set its sights on the unified dragon clan. What should we do?" a.
