Chapter 173 Heading to the Three Mountain Pass
Kong Xuan, the son of Yuan Feng, is the first peacock in the prehistoric world. He is a quasi-saint and has reached great perfection. He is known as the number one person under the saint!
Luo Shu thought of the plot in the later Conferred Gods, in which Kong Xuan was transferred to Jinji Ridge, and relied on his own strength to stop the Zhou army led by Jiang Ziya.
Especially Kong Xuan's innate magical power, the five-colored divine light. Once this skill is used, everything within the five elements can be swept away, even people can be captured without error.
Kong Xuan alone captured several immortals of the Chan sect and generals of the Zhou army. It can be said that he was a one-man army that could hold off ten thousand.
In the end, if it weren't for the intervention of Zhunti Taoist, one of the two saints in the West, the Zhou army would never have been able to cross Jinji Ridge and destroy the Shang Dynasty.
To be honest, Luo Shu admires Kong Xuan from the bottom of his heart.
At that time, relying on his cultivation level of the quasi-saint state, it can be said that as long as the saint did not take down the field, no one could take him down.
Moreover, Kong Xuan captured so many people from the Zhou army camp at that time, but he did not kill any of them, but simply imprisoned them.
What does this mean?
This shows that Kong Xuan has seen through the essence of the Conferred Gods. He understands that this war is just a part of the cycle of heaven and cause and effect.
Therefore, he did not want to create more causes and consequences due to killing and get himself involved.
After a while, Luo Shu came back to his senses and focused his eyes on the system panel in front of him again.
He pondered for a moment, then ruled out Tasks 2 and 3 without hesitation.
Not to mention that the rewards for these two tasks are of no use to me.
Just talking about these two tasks, there is nothing much to do.
Let’s talk about task two first, which is to stop Jiang Ziya from becoming the prime minister of Xiqi.
But think about it, if Jiang Ziya did not serve as prime minister in Xiqi, how could he have the right to speak in Xiqi?
Without a say, how could he convince Ji Chang to rebel?
This rebellion is a crucial step in the Battle of the Gods. Without this step, when will we be able to find an opportunity to send the disciples of the Chan Sect to the List of Gods?
Now let’s talk about task three, returning to Yufu Mountain to teach his disciples.
Let's just say, what is there to teach those disciples? They are all very self-conscious and practice hard every day. There is no need for me to guide them at all.
So, excluding Task 2 and Task 3, Luo Shu directly chose Task 1.
"System, select task one!"
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for choosing Task 1. Please complete the task as soon as possible! ]
Hearing the system prompt, Luo Shu felt relieved.
Although the difficulty of Task 1 is a bit high, the reward is still very attractive.
After all, it was the Great Ruler of the Universe! A treasure of acquired merit!
What is even more exciting is that when you fight against others and use the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler to kill people, it will not be affected by cause and effect.
"This is a must-have weapon for murder and robbery!"
Luo Shu almost couldn't help laughing out loud, his mood became extremely excited.
Wen Zhong, who was sitting opposite Luo Shu, was originally immersed in the conversation with Wucheng King Huang Feihu and Uncle Wang Bigan.
But suddenly, he noticed that his senior brother Luo Shu's expression had subtly changed.
I saw the corners of Luo Shu's mouth gradually rise, and finally it formed an almost exaggerated arc.
Wen Zhong couldn't help but feel confused. He frowned slightly and asked:
"Big Brother, is what we just discussed so funny?"
There was a hint of confusion and inquiry in his voice.
Upon hearing this, Luo Shu realized his own gaffe. He quickly stopped smiling and coughed lightly, trying to hide his embarrassment.
However, the twinkle in his eyes betrayed his inner joy.
"Oh, not that what we are talking about is funny."
Luo Shu smiled and explained, "It's just... it's just that I suddenly thought of a very good thing, so I lost my composure a little."
He tried to make his tone sound calm and natural.
"Oh? I wonder what the National Master is thinking about? It makes the National Master, who is always indifferent, show such an expression." Uncle Wang Bigan's voice was full of curiosity and exploration.
Luo Shu smiled slightly and turned his gaze to his uncle Wang Bigan, with wisdom flashing in his eyes.
Then, Luo Shu turned his gaze to the majestic Wucheng King Huang Feihu and said slowly:
"King Wucheng, I have already made up my mind about Tianhua and Tianxiang becoming my disciples."
When King Wucheng Huang Feihu heard this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
He bowed and said respectfully, "I would like to hear the advice of the Imperial Master."
Luo Shu nodded and continued:
"The person I recommend is the general officer stationed at Sanshan Pass - Kong Xuan."
As soon as these words were spoken, Wucheng King Huang Feihu and his uncle Bigan both looked curious and exchanged puzzled glances with each other.
Wucheng King Huang Feihu frowned slightly, cupped his hands and asked:
"Master, I wonder what kind of person Kong Xuan is that has won your favor?"
Uncle Bigan also echoed: "Yes, I have never heard of this man's name. I wonder what is so special about him?"
Luo Shu smiled slightly and explained:
"Although Kong Xuan is not well-known, he has profound cultivation, is proficient in military tactics, and is loyal, upright, and principled. He is a rare general."
"He has been quietly stationed at Sanshan Pass and is a capable general under the command of Sanshan Pass General Deng Jiugong."
“If Tianhua and Tianxiang can get this opportunity and become Kong Xuan’s disciples, it will be a great honor for them.”
"I believe that with Kong Xuan's ability and character, he will definitely teach them attentively and impart everything he knows. By then, Tianhua and Tianxiang will surely become pillars of the Shang Dynasty."
Luo Shu's words are full of admiration and trust for Kong Xuan.
The people present, such as Wucheng King Huang Feihu, Uncle Wang Bigan and others, could not help but develop a strong interest in Kong Xuan, whom they had never met.
Wen Zhong was listening to Luo Shu's description and was slightly stunned, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Wen Zhong had heard of Kong Xuan a little bit. He once met Kong Xuan when he passed by Sanshan Pass.
At that time, he felt that there was no spiritual energy fluctuation around Kong Xuan, and thought that he was just a mortal general.
But at this moment, hearing his senior brother praising him, Wen Zhong realized that Kong Xuan's cultivation must be much higher than his own.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be without any feeling at all.
Wen Zhong also expressed his deep agreement. He spoke slowly, with a hint of respect and thought in his voice:
"I have also met General Kong Xuan once before."
"At that time, I was not able to discern his true strength. Now that I hear my senior brother praising him so highly, I realize that my previous judgment was really shallow."
"General Kong Xuan's cultivation is at least far superior to mine."
Wen Zhong paused, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes, and continued:
"I once wondered why such a great man was willing to quietly guard Sanshan Pass and serve as a general commander."
"Thinking about it today, perhaps this is a reflection of his indifference to fame and fortune and his concern for his country and the world."
"Although he holds an important position, he does not seek fame or fortune, but only wants to protect the peace of the people. Such a character is truly admirable."
After hearing this, Luo Shu raised his lips meaningfully, nodded slightly, and his eyes flashed with approval:
"Junior brother, what you said is very true. Kong Xuan is indeed worthy of such praise. King Wucheng, if Tianhua and Tianxiang want to worship Kong Xuan as their master, what do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Wucheng King Huang Feihu's expression became solemn. He knew the vision and insight of Luoshu State Master very well, so after pondering for a moment, he said solemnly:
"Master, I have no doubts about your recommendation. Since you think highly of General Kong Xuan, I will naturally agree to let Tianhua and Tianxiang become his disciples."
He paused, frowned slightly, as if thinking about the next arrangements, and continued:
"However, I have no direct contact with General Kong Xuan, so I will need your help in making this happen."
Luo Shu smiled and nodded, showing his understanding:
"Please rest assured, King Wucheng. I will handle this matter myself. I will take Tianhua and Tianxiang to Sanshan Pass as soon as possible, meet General Kong Xuan in person, and inform him of this matter."
Huang Feihu was relieved after hearing this. He stood up and bowed deeply to Luo Shu:
"Master, I leave this matter to you."
Huang Tianhua and Huang Tianxiang, who were standing by, also bowed to Luo Shu and said gratefully:
"Thank you, Master Imperial Master!"
Seeing this, Luo Shu waved his hand, indicating that they didn't need to be so polite.
Then, Luo Shu nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice:
"King Wucheng, you are too polite. It is better to do it today than to wait for a better day. Take Tianhua and Tianxiang back to say goodbye to Madam Huang and pack some clothes."
"The next morning, I will take them to Sanshan Pass."
Upon hearing this, Wucheng King Huang Feihu nodded and said bluntly:
"Okay, thank you, Imperial Master. I will take them back right away. Tomorrow morning, I will wait for the Imperial Master in front of the Imperial Master's mansion."
Luo Shu smiled and nodded, expressing his satisfaction with Huang Feihu's arrangement.
So, King Wucheng Huang Feihu turned around and took his leave, leaving the Grand Tutor's Mansion with Tianhua and Tianxiang.
Here, Luo Shu and the others chatted briefly and then dispersed.
The next morning, Luo Shu took the two brothers Huang Tianhua and Huang Tianxiang to Sanshan Pass.
