Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 684: Yin and Yang

Shu Kingdom, deep in the Lotus Pond Heavenly Palace.

An indigo blue lotus bloomed in a pool of deep blue lake water. The flower was half a foot in size, with a cold light shining on its surface, as if it were forged from metal.

Lu Tong and Yu Chao stood by the lake.

Lu Tong asked: "What kind of treasure is this?"

"Suo Xingyoulian grows by swallowing starlight. After it grows, the lotus flowers, lotus leaves, lotus root belts, and lotus root joints can be sacrificed to create a set of magic weapons."

Yuchao opened his arms, and clouds and mist gathered in the four palms, turning into swords, shields, whips, and hammers.

Lu Tong nodded slightly.

"The Blood Refining Kingdom will be in turmoil. Junior sister, I will sacrifice the four treasures as soon as possible, so that I can have more means."

"Brother, are you sure King Jing will rebel?"

He shook his head and said: "It's not rebellion, it's chaos."

Yu Chao didn’t understand, so he turned sideways and said, “Senior brother, sit down and explain in detail.”

There is a dome pavilion by the lake.

The two of them went in and sat down. Que Yuping retired the maid and poured a glass of wine himself.

Lu Tong raised his hand a little.

The wine in the cup rose and turned into four swimming fish of different sizes.

"This is the Xue Lian Kingdom. Baochuan is the largest one, followed by King Jing, then King Jin and the other lineage masters, and then next is Xu Ling. Although the Xue Lian Kingdom is large, but the four directions Power can sweep the country."

The four-tailed fish is divided into two sides. Although the size is different, the Baochuan and Xuling together are roughly the same as Jingwang, Jinwang and so on.

The four tailed fish chase each other, like a pair of yin and yang fishes.

Yu Chao put down the wine pot and said: "We support Xu Ling and weaken King Jin, and Paochuan becomes stronger. If King Jing does not resist, it will be beneficial to Xue Lian Country. The 'chaos' that senior brother said, Where did it arise?"

“Chaos arises from imbalance.”

"Imbalanced?"

Lu Tong nodded slowly.

In the past two years, I have thought about the epiphany that I missed last time countless times, and it was only recently that I finally realized that the change of yin and yang does not refer to the practice of practice, but to the way of governing the country.

Love and hate are interdependent and relative, and the relationship is very deep, but if you want to exist for a long time, you must be fair and impartial.

Everything goes too far, especially when it comes to failure.

Yin and Yang are like this, and so are the affairs of a country.

He delivers mana.

A fish jumped out from the palm of his hand. Xu Ling swallowed most of King Jin and turned into a big fish, while King Jin became the smallest fish.

Yu Chao said: "King Jin is out, Baochuan and Xu Ling have greatly increased their strength, and King Jing can't stand alone, so he will inevitably be defeated. If King Jing still doesn't resist, from now on, the Xuelian Kingdom will be ruled by Baochuan alone."

Lu Tong shook his head.

In the palm of their hand, Baochuan and Xu Ling carve up King Jing, and King Jing turned into a small fish.

Yu Chao said: "Senior brother, how come you are unbalanced at this time?"

Lu Tong raised his finger.

Paochuan and Xu Ling were divided into two sides. Paochuan was still the largest, but King Jing and King Jin also swam over and worked with Xu Ling to contain Paochuan.

Yuchao Tong shrank and said: "Xu Ling is Pao Chuan's confidant, how could he betray Pao Chuan?"

"Can Xu Ling bear it, can Baochuan bear it?"

"What do you mean?"

Lu Tong looked at Yu Chao and sighed in his heart, Yu Chao was still too immature.

"Whether it is an enemy or a friend, it all depends on the situation. When King Jing was there, Baochuan needed Xu Ling to deal with King Jing, and Xu Ling was a confidant at this time. If King Jing is gone, if Xu Ling dares to become bigger, he will He is the next 'King Jing'."

Yu Chao was in turmoil.

Lu Tongtong: "If the Xuelian Kingdom does not want to be in chaos, only if King Jin does not fight, King Jing does not rebel, and Xu Ling does not become greedy, then everything can be returned to Baochuan. But if it is really so respectful, how can the Xuelian Kingdom be so humble? Is there a 'Xu Ling judge'?"

Only at this moment did Yu Chao understand what it means to be the master of a country. For a moment, he was shocked, frightened, and had mixed emotions.

"So, the Blood Refining Country will inevitably be in chaos?"

Lu Tong swallowed the wine in one gulp and said in a deep voice: "There will be chaos!"

……

Two months later.

Purple Air Palace.

Lu Tong sat in the palace, looking through various matters in the country, preparing to reorganize them.

Yin and Yang exist between all things.

Civil and military affairs, officials and people, choices, rewards and punishments...

On closer inspection, I realized that there are imbalances of yin and yang everywhere in Liangyao Zhengguo.

"Little bluebird."

"Here."

"Go and invite Master Zhangqiao."

"Yes."

After drinking tea, Zhang Qiao walked into the palace with a slightly tired look and said, "Master, what happened?"

"Sit down and talk."

Zhang Qiao yawned and sat down with some confusion.

Lu Tongtong: "Thank you, Lord, I suddenly realized something and want to discuss some state affairs with the Lord."

"I don't dare. The king stays up late at night and works hard to govern. This is the blessing of a good and righteous country."

Zhang Qiao looked straight.

Lu Tong began to talk about the yin and yang that he had recently realized. After talking for a long time, he finally said: "Everything has pros and cons. The pros outweighing the cons is one of the symptoms of yin and yang imbalance."

Zhang Qiao sat still.

After thinking about it for nearly a stick of incense, Zhang Qiao took a long breath and said: "The great talent of the country, the theory of yin and yang is extremely profound, and the detailed analysis is still above 'all things are like water', Zhang Mou feels ashamed. ”

Lu Tong smiled and shook his head, saying: "The Palace Master's teachings cover a very wide range, how can ordinary people be able to shake it."

Zhang Qiao also smiled.

"The way of yin and yang sounds good at detecting ills. The king called me here late at night, but he noticed the ills?"

Lu Tong suppressed his smile and said seriously: "I have an idea, I don't know if it is correct. If it is wrong, please correct me directly, Master."

"Please, the Lord."

"For civil and military matters, there are Qiuyin Palace and Sixth Hall for civil affairs, and Xuanyang Palace and Baishan Mountain for martial arts. However, Qiangwu Tower is the root of Baishan, but it is under the control of Qiyin Palace. If things go on like this, Wen's prosperity and Wu's defeat are inevitable . What does the palace master think?"

Zhang Qiao looked solemn and immediately began to think.

"The mountain masters, big and small warriors, etc. in the hundreds of mountains occupy countless commercial markets. This is the foundation of the Zhidian. Civil and military restraints are in line with the way of yin and yang."

Lu Tong thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "Yin and Yang should be mutually reinforcing each other, not killing each other. Wu should not interfere with business, and culture should not interfere with martial arts. This is the right way."

"Having said that, martial arts are difficult to control. Back then, it was also in order to control Baishan, so we established the Qiangwu Tower."

"That was an old problem before the founding of the country. Now that we have Qiangwu Tower, we only need to prohibit Baishan from getting involved in business. From then on, we can naturally use money to restrict Baishan."

"Martial arts does not involve business. This move is tantamount to trying to seize the property of the mountain owners, and it is difficult to reach the sky."

"Exercise punishment through rewards. As much property as you collect, you will be rewarded with as many elixirs, methods, and magic weapons..."

The two discussed endlessly.

The next day.

Lu Tong noticed the rising yang energy in the direction of Xuan Yang Palace and stood up and said: "These matters should not be rushed. The master of the Hall of Hard Work will discuss it with Liu Jixin, Qiu Ci and others, gather everyone's talents, and decide on a balanced way."

Zhang Qiao looked sad and stood up: "This is where the responsibility lies."

……

When the good demon Zhengguo balances the "yin and yang", the undercurrent of the Blood Lianguo also begins to surge.

Blood Refining Country, Chishui Mountain.

Xu Ling climbed to the top of the tower again, took out a letter, and said: "My lord, King Jin colluded with the good demon and Zhengguo, and communicated with each other through secret letters. It seems that he is ambitious."

The letter is delivered.

After a long period of silence, a deep voice sounded from above, saying:

"...given time, I will not be under the lord of the country!"

"If necessary, hundreds of thousands of people from Shenxu will definitely help!"

"Whose letter is this?"

Xu Ling said: "The doctor of the Xu Dynasty, Ju Miao, has a very high status and leads hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers. The four-clawed crow borrowed by King Jin comes from this person."

"King Jin..."

There was another long silence.

The rich voice sounded again, saying: "How are you preparing?"

"Inquire and interrogate, close the government, imprison King Jin, and cut off his contact with the outside world. Then send people to supervise King Jin's subordinates, either through coercion or inducement, until everything is found out."

"Is it just a letter to capture King Jin?"

Xu Ling looked calm.

He knew his identity very well. It was not him who wanted to touch King Jin, but the king. He just found an opportunity and sent it to the king who had been waiting.

"Major events that harm the country are related to the foundation of the country. It is better to kill by mistake than to let go."

"Xianhe is the king of Jin, and nothing can be surpassed."

"Understood."

……

Xuelian Kingdom is a small town adjacent to Liangyao Zhengguo in the southwest.

In a quiet courtyard in the city, a young man with red eyebrows and an old man in black robe were sitting in the room talking.

"Master, the time has come."

The expression of the red-browed young man changed instantly.

"What opportunity?"

The old man in black robe said: "The opportunity to restore the country has come."

"Please teach me, Prime Minister!"

"King Jin is deeply alone, and everyone under his command is resentful, but there is nothing he can do to help. Liangyao Zhengguo seems to have ambitions. We take the initiative to act as a spear to break the ground. Maybe we can borrow a Taoist soldier. If there are two With the help of the party, there is a high chance that the country can be re-established."

"Good demon Zhengguo? How can they borrow troops?"

"You will know as soon as the lord of the country arrives. I will be the one to intervene with King Jin. The lord of the country will go to Liangyao Zhengguo and ask for help from Dr. Jushuo, the doctor of the market."

"Okay."

……

Half a month later.

In the middle of the night, wild screams rang out from the formation deep in the Sutra Hall. Finally, with a very long chant, everything returned to calm.

In the formation, Madam Ninth floated motionless on the water.

Lu Tong was sitting by the pool, blowing out clouds from his pipe, and said with a smile: "If something unexpected happens to you, you will definitely become a **** ghost."

Madam Ninth was exhausted, and she lowered her eyelids and glanced sideways.

Lu Tong took a strong puff, threw away the pipe, jumped into the pool, and swam over to transfer the smoke from his mouth.

"Yeah"

Madam Ninth snorted softly, and wisps of white smoke came out of her mouth and nose.

Looking at each other.

Mrs. Ninth’s eyes were blurry, as if there was water mist rising.

Lu Tong raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you coming again?"

Madam Ninth did not speak, but slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

Lu Tong shook his head and murmured: "I really became a **** ghost..."

"Buzz"

There are some fluctuations in the formation.

Lu Tong hugged Mrs. Ninth like a big white fish, and while sinking into the water, he received the mana that broke into the formation. After sinking for a few feet, he suddenly stopped.

"The drama is looking for me."

Madame Ninth, who had always been weak, stretched out her arms and legs and wrapped them around her like a four-clawed fish.

"Things are never done, so let him wait for a quarter of an hour."

Lu Tong shook his head and jumped out of the water, leaving behind two clones of a dragon and a dragon, which turned into a **** light and escaped from the formation.

Purple Air Palace.

Lu Tong landed outside the hall, and the two people waiting outside the hall immediately saluted.

"Meet the King."

"I have met Lord Lu."

Lu Tong was very surprised. He looked at the red-browed young man brought by Jushu and said, "Fellow Taoist Yankun, long time no see."

Yan Kun, the leader of the Xu Kingdom at that time, fled to the Xuelian Kingdom after the collapse of the Xu Kingdom.

Yan Kun nodded slightly and looked sideways at Ju Shu.

Ji Shu said: "The Lord of the Kingdom, the Lord of Yan has important matters to discuss."

Lu Tong blinked.

The Lord of Yan?

Few people refer to the leader of the country as the leader of the country anymore, especially the Hongchi and Shenxu of the Liangyao Zheng Kingdom, which were still the territory of the Xu Kingdom.

"Go in and discuss."

Entering the hall, the three of them sat down separately.

Lu Tong looked at Yan Kun.

Yan Kun took a deep breath and said: "I want to restore the country, please lend me one hundred thousand Taoist soldiers, Lord Lu."

Lu Tong opened his eyes violently.

"What?"

Ju Shu hurriedly said: "The Lord of the Kingdom, the Lord of the Yan Kingdom is planning to occupy a piece of land in the southwest of the Blood Lian Kingdom and reestablish the Xu Kingdom."

"Oh."

Lu Tong shook his head, secretly thinking that his debauchery was a waste of time.

Having just escaped from the Sutra Hall, he didn't react for a moment. There was no way Yan Kun could use his men to beat him.

Ji Shu said: "Master Yan, how about I tell you the inside story in detail?"

"Okay."

Ji Shu said: "The Lord of the Kingdom, King Jin of the Blood Lian Kingdom suffered an unjust injustice and was imprisoned half a month ago. Many of his subordinates defected to the Lord of Yan in an attempt to rescue King Jin."

Lu Tong looked unmoved, but was very happy in his heart.

A big fish actually came out.

King Jin did not move, nor did King Jing, but there were many people who needed opportunities, and Yan Kun could save him a lot of time by taking action.

"How many people do you have?"

"A lot."

Lu Tong lowered his eyelids and suppressed his joy.

"How much is a lot?"

"King Jin has a population of millions, and he can mobilize no less than 300,000."

"Where are you going to resume your country?"

"To the east of Liangyao Zhengguo, between the three cities of Jiugen, Xueqiao and Yanling in Xuelian."

Lu Tong nodded slowly and said: "One hundred thousand people is not a small number."

"If the restoration of the country is successful, the Xu Kingdom is willing to become a vassal state of the Liangyao Zhengguo ~IndoMTL.com~ and offer elixirs, magic weapons, and the energy of the Three Treasures every year."

Lu Tong looked at Ju Mi.

Ju Mao nodded slightly.

Lu Tongtong: "The war is dangerous and we should not take it lightly. Fellow Taoist, please stay in the city first and let us discuss something."

"Okay."

Lu Tong called the little blue bird and took Yan Kun away from the Ziqi Palace to stay in the city.

"What do you think?"

Ji Shu said: "This is an opportunity. First observe King Jin's manpower. If there is indeed any action, you can try it with 100,000 people."

Lu Tong thought for a while and said: "Prince Jin has moved, but Prince Jing has not yet moved. If we take action now, Prince Jing and Baochuan will definitely put aside their old grudges, and the previous hard work will be wasted. Let us add fuel to the fire."

"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."

"Xiaoqing..."

The little blue bird hasn't come back yet.

Lu Tong shook his head, passed a magic power through the main hall to Qiyin Palace, and said: "Master Zhang, come to Ziqi Palace quickly."

Soon, Zhang Qiao entered the palace.

"The king."

Lu Tong motioned Zhang Qiao to sit down and said: "Among the many families hiding wealth in Shuishi City, are there any of them from the lineage of King Jing of Xuelian Kingdom?"

Zhang Qiao frowned.

"My lord, Shuishi City cannot get involved in the fight. Once there is a precedent like this, people will leave and the city will fall in an instant."

"Don't touch them. Just pick a suitable target and burn the fire on King Jing."

Zhang Qiao looked at Ju Shu.

Ju Shu stood up directly, bowed, and exited the Purple Air Palace.

Zhang Qiao said: "One of the people who supported King Jing back then was an elder named Shen. The Shen family occupied many mineral veins and used this to seek huge amounts of wealth. In recent years, they have moved to Shuishi City."

"Mineral veins...stealing ore mining, illegal mining, tax evasion?"

"It should be inevitable."

Lu Tong grinned and said: "This is easy. I hope Xu Ling will not disappoint us."
