464, Swallowing a Dragon: The Style of an Ancient Gentleman (Requesting Full Order)
Bai Gui turned and left. Google search reading
The white-clothed scholar who was the incarnation of the Dragon King of Jinghe River did not chase him. He stared at Bai Gui's back seriously until his back disappeared in the alley.
Then, a red five-clawed dragon rose into the sky above Chang'an City, circled in the air several times, and finally wailed and fled northward.
At the door of Bai's house.
In Bai Gui's hand, the foot-long golden carp that had been struggling desperately heard the wailing sound, and two huge tears flowed from its eyes.
Wherever the dragon's tears flow, the grass and trees flourish.
Although Bai Gui was surprised to see it, he did not pay much attention to it. Ambergris can still be used to heal injuries, not to mention the tears left by the real dragon. He ignored it and walked straight to the study.
The benefits of ambergris and dragon's tears are for mortals, and they are of no use to immortals like him.
When he arrived at the study, he used gold powder as the base, mixed with cinnabar, and wrote the word "prisoner" on the head of the golden carp. The strokes were as loud as thunder and lightning, and the golden carp's struggle disappeared, lying on the desk, motionless.
It was as if its tendons were cut and its scapula was pierced.
With this word "prisoner", Jingyang Jun could also speak, "Bai Gui, I have no grudges against you. Although the Dragon Girl of Dongting Lake is my original wife, I have long since severed my relationship with her. If you let me go, not only can my father's fairy apricot be given to you, but you can also choose from all kinds of concubines in my palace. These concubines are all beautiful and beautiful, and they are better than the Dragon Girl of Dongting Lake..."
People have to bow their heads under the eaves.
Jingyang Jun planned that when he returned, he would definitely make Bai Gui look bad, and he would have to make Bai Gui pay twice for this humiliation.
"I can swear for this."
Seeing that Bai Gui was not moved, Jingyang Jun promised again.
He thought Bai Gui was just delivering a letter for the Dragon Girl of Dongting Lake. For this reason alone, the two of them had a grudge. But in his opinion, this hatred was not unsolvable.
His father, the Dragon King of Jinghe River, had been the Dragon King for too long and did not understand the principle of temporary forbearance and humility.
"Jingyang Jun, can this feud really be resolved?"
Bai Gui smiled.
He told him about the plan he had made in Dongting Lake.
Jingyang Jun was so angry that he wanted to escape, but the "prisoner" character on his head shone with golden light, suppressing him on the table, unable to move.
"It is better to resolve a feud than to make one. This matter, I can let it go."
It said again.
"No need, the auspicious time has come. Lord Jingyang, you should set off." Bai Gui sat cross-legged on the bamboo mat, glanced at Lord Jingyang, and then silently recited the magic formula. He used the magic formula to absorb Lord Jingyang's dragon energy strand by strand, and these dragon energy gathered in his hands and turned into a golden dragon.
After swallowing the golden dragon ball given by the Dragon Girl of Dongting, he had a complete understanding of the dragon nature. At this moment, there would be no hindrance in absorbing the dragon energy from Lord Jingyang.
Quarter after quarter passed. At first, Lord Jingyang was still begging for mercy, but halfway through, he turned to scolding, and near the end, he began to curse Bai Gui and the Dragon Girl of Dongting to die.
After refining for a full hour, Lord Jingyang's energy was like a thread.
Dragon energy does not only refer to the breath of the dragon. The dragon energy required by the cold dragon method is the innate essence of the real dragon.
Seeing this scene, Bai Gui shook his head and killed Lord Jingyang with a palm.
Then he used the alchemy technique to refine the remaining flesh and blood of Jingyang Jun into a dragon pill, and then swallowed it.
When he absorbed Jingyang Jun's dragon energy, Jingyang Jun's dragon ball was also within the range of absorption. Although the remaining flesh and blood lost a lot of essence, after refining, he also gained a lot.
The reason why he let Jingyang Jun chatter for so long and didn't give Jingyang Jun a quick death first was because he was worried that Jingyang Jun would end his life by himself.
In this case, the dragon energy he refined would inevitably have more dead energy, and the cold dragon method cultivated in this way would be equivalent to having a flaw and a dead door.
After swallowing a dragon, Bai Gui felt that his strength increased a lot, and his immortal body became stronger. At the same time, his skills also increased by three hundred years of Taoism.
Three hundred years of Taoism refers to the three hundred years of Taoism practiced by ordinary earth immortals.
He must have practiced more than this.
"Another means to fight the enemy."
Bai Gui stroked the topaz ring in his hand and said happily.
After mastering the Cold Dragon Technique, the Cold Dragon can be transformed into tattoos or small objects. The yellow jade ring is the Cold Dragon he practiced. When facing an enemy, he can release the Cold Dragon, or use the Cold Dragon to bless himself, so that he will not be hot when encountering fire or cold when encountering ice, and transfer the cause and effect, and die once.
Yes, the greatest function of the Cold Dragon Technique is to transfer the cause and effect, and die once. But to achieve this goal, you must refine a living real dragon.
And there are very few people who have the courage to hurt the real dragon.
Even if you have this courage, not everyone can slaughter the real dragon. Although Bai Gui is not afraid of Jingyang Jun in his heyday, he is not yet at the level of being able to subdue and kill Jingyang Jun.
Taoist Zheng only dared to take the idea of Dongting Dragon Cave.
The next day.
After the holiday, Bai Gui went to the Chang'an Palace to take up his post.
Along the way, the palace maids with half-exposed chests saw Bai Gui and looked sideways. Some concubines who had tasted men, when they saw Bai Gui, their eyes sparkled and their legs tightened.
Until Princess Changle Li Lizhi saw Bai Gui, "Teacher, you smell so good, there's a feeling that makes people want to get close to you."
Bai Gui was surprised for a moment.
He looked around and then understood.
Ambergris is a treasure in the palace. But this ambergris is just a vulgar thing, not the real dragon ambergris. And he swallowed a real dragon, if he didn't deliberately conceal the smell. This real dragon smell is far more attractive than any hormone.
"Lizhi, why didn't I feel any fragrance on the teacher."
Li Tai deliberately moved one or two steps away from Bai Gui, smelled it, and wondered.
But this matter was not in his heart. He stepped back half a step and bowed to Bai Gui and said: "Teacher, I have reached the age to leave the palace and open a mansion. Yesterday, my father and mother told me about this, but the Wei Wang Mansion is still short of a Wangfu Master..."
Wangfu Master, one person in the Tang system, ranked from the sixth grade, in charge of Wangfu calligraphy.
Bai Gui is now Li Tai's calligraphy teacher. If Li Tai leaves the palace to open a mansion, then the choice of the master, there is no doubt that Bai Gui is very likely to be chosen.
In addition, Bai Gui made two meritorious deeds last time, one was the merit of memorializing the emperor, and the other was the merit of inviting Taoist Zheng. These two merits have not been rewarded yet, and the various departments are not short of officials. Bai Gui's post as the Left Picker of the Ministry of Personnel was from the eighth rank, and he was promoted to the sixth rank of the Prince's Palace Chief Clerk, which was just right.
The Prince's Palace Chief Clerk is different from the central government official position, which is considered a local position, so it seems that he has been promoted by two ranks, but in fact, officials from Beijing to local officials are often promoted by one or two ranks. But the Prince's Palace Chief Clerk is different from the real local official. Because Wei Wang Li Tai is still young, it is not time for him to be a vassal.
It seems to be a local official, but in fact he stays in Beijing.
With this qualification, it will not be difficult to transfer to the central government in the future.
"I am your Majesty's minister. If your Majesty agrees to this matter, I will not refuse."
Bai Gui bowed his hands.
It is a good job for him to be the Chief Clerk of Wei Wangfu. Wei Wang is young, and as a teacher, he will have many opportunities to meet the emperor. This is something that many people are fighting for. As for the fight for the throne, the Crown Prince Li Chenggan and the Prince of Wei Li Tai have not reached that point yet, so worrying about this matter is groundless.
But even if he wanted to, he couldn't say this directly to the Prince of Wei Li Tai.
What he said seemed to be a polite refusal, but in fact it was an agreement.
The art of speaking lies here.
He is already Li Tai's teacher. As Li Tai's father, Li Shimin would not do anything about this matter even if he wanted to deliberately restrict Li Tai. Not to mention, Li Shimin dotes on Li Tai, the prince.
As long as he, the teacher, does not refuse this request, Li Tai will ask Li Shimin, and Li Shimin will naturally not refuse.
"Teacher, don't worry, I have already asked my father. As long as the teacher agrees, after the government is opened, the position of the chief clerk will be yours."
Li Tai's face lit up and said.
From Bai Gui's memorial to Bai Gui's request for Zheng Taoist. All these things, one by one, fell into his eyes. He also paid more attention to Bai Gui.
Although Bai Gui's current official position is not as good as Chu Suiliang's, he believes that with Bai Gui's help, it is definitely better than Chu Suiliang's help.
"I have seen His Highness the King of Wei."
Bai Gui was slightly stunned, looked at Li Tai seriously, and bowed.
Originally, he was the Left Picker of the Ministry of Personnel, and was Li Tai's teacher, but not Li Tai's subordinate. So he didn't have to call himself a minister to Li Tai. But after he became the chief clerk of the Wei Wang Mansion, he was the Wei Wang's subordinate, so he had to call himself a minister to Li Tai.
But he was not a servile, just calling himself a minister.
He didn't mind it.
"I am a disciple. Although there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, I still need to serve the teacher with the courtesy of a disciple."
"Teacher, don't be polite, just do it as before."
Li Tai did not put on airs, and hurriedly avoided Bai Gui's courtesy. When Bai Gui stood up, he bowed to Bai Gui again.
"Your Highness is modest and respectful, and has the demeanor of an ancient gentleman."
Bai Gui saw this and smiled.
No matter whether Li Tai was sincere or false, it was good enough for him to be extremely respectful to his teacher as a prince. Not everyone can be polite to others.
At the same time, this attitude also caught his eye.
If it does not affect his plan, he does not mind helping Li Tai and letting his disciple sit on the throne.
