Chapter 1059 Not an Immortal
"Your condition is already extremely bad. Instead of withdrawing your troops to recuperate, you insist on attacking the Western Liang Women's Kingdom. Do you really not want to live?"
The eldest princess of heaven said in confusion.
"Ahem! Hostages should have the awareness of being hostages and stay out of other people's business." Wang Ming said without any emotion.
Wang Ming's attention was not here, but on the country of Xiliang Women.
Sun Wukong and Master Tang Seng left Wang Ming behind and went away first.
But they didn't go far before they were stopped.
The Scorpion Demon still found Tang Sanzang and wanted to practice dual cultivation with him.
Tang Sanzang is very handsome, but not handsome enough to attract the opposite sex across species.
The reason why Scorpion Spirits, Rat Spirits and the like like him is mainly because of the benefits.
The Buddhist merits that Tang Sanzang cultivated over his ten reincarnations are of great benefit to the monsters.
If the male monster wants to gain benefits, he can only eat it, but this is a practice of killing the goose that lays the eggs.
The best thing is to practice dual cultivation with Tang Sanzang, so Tang Sanzang had many romantic encounters on his journey to the West.
The difference in strength between Sun Wukong and the Scorpion Demon is not that big, so it is difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time.
"Father, I beg to see you."
Li Zhi's voice came from outside the bronze palace.
Wang Ming retracted his gaze and said, "Come in!"
After Li Zhi came in, his eyes unconsciously glanced at the Grand Princess of Heaven.
"What's the matter?" Wang Ming asked.
"Father, not long ago a few soldiers accidentally drank some river water. Now their stomachs are swollen like they are ten months pregnant." Li Zhi said.
Wang Ming frowned and said, "Didn't I ask everyone to be careful before?"
Li Zhi said: "They may have forgotten for a moment!"
Wang Ming took a deep look at Li Zhi, then said to the Princess of Heaven: "You go out first!"
The Princess of Heaven looked at Wang Ming in confusion. She didn’t understand why Wang Ming suddenly drove them away, but she still left obediently because she knew there was no point in staying.
After her back completely disappeared from his sight, Wang Ming said to Li Zhi sternly, "If you don't want to die, don't think about hitting on her."
Li Zhi's body shook unconsciously when he heard this, and then he forced himself to calm down and said, "Father, I don't understand what you are saying."
Wang Ming glanced at Li Zhi, and then said: "Whether you understand or not is your business, I don't care. But you are my successor after I leave, so I still want to remind you to stay away from her. She is not someone you can mess with."
Li Zhi showed a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but he suppressed it and said, "Ercheng knows."
Wang Ming could see Li Zhi's thoughts. It was obvious that Li Zhi had lustful thoughts about the Princess of Heaven.
Li Zhi wanted to have a bite of swan meat, but Wang Ming was too lazy to care.
However, Wang Ming thought that he might leave this world at any time, and after he left, the Tang Dynasty would inevitably collapse without a powerful emperor, so he warned Li Zhi.
Wang Ming knew very well Li Zhi's virtues.
Wu Zetian was originally a member of Li Shimin's harem, but later Li Zhi also took her into the harem.
From the Han people's perspective, he was a traitor, but considering that the Li family had half Hu blood, there was nothing to be surprised about.
The custom of the Hu people is that when the father dies, the son can inherit his father's concubines.
Many people praise the greatness of Zhaojun's journey to the frontier.
Many people even fabricated the love story between Wang Zhaojun and Huhanye Khan, believing that Wang Zhaojun was very happy.
But actually,
Wang Zhaojun's life was extremely miserable.
Huhanye was a short-lived man and died soon after. Later, Wang Zhaojun had to marry his son according to the customs of the Hu people; his son also died young, so she remarried.
She was married to a father and his two sons.
After knowing this custom of the Hu people, it is not surprising that Li Zhi would rescue Wu Zetian and make her his concubine.
Obviously Li Zhi thought that Wang Ming wanted to snatch the woman from him.
It's not surprising that Li Zhi would have evil thoughts about the Princess of Heaven.
Everyone loves beauty, let alone a fairy?
The Princess of Heaven is indeed beautiful. If Wang Ming had not been threatened by a life-and-death crisis, he might have been tempted by her.
What's more, Li Zhi is a mortal. The beauty of fairies and mortal women is really different.
This huge difference is not in appearance.
When one’s appearance reaches a certain level, you can’t tell much difference at all. At most, the direction of beauty and temperament are different.
The reason why women on earth cannot compare to fairies is because of their lack of maintenance.
For example, nine out of ten women in the world have yellow teeth. In ancient times, people really thought that everyone had bright eyes and white teeth!
Wang Ming said with a slightly cold expression: "Put away your dirty thoughts. If you insist on doing this and want to die, I will not stop you. The emperor's son was born to be killed. If you die, someone else will be the emperor."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhi's legs suddenly went weak and he knelt down to beg for mercy and admit his mistake.
Wang Ming said: "Get up! I don't care whether you really know your fault or not, I want to tell you that the woman is not from the mortal world. You can't afford to offend her. You are not worthy of her."
Li Zhi immediately realized that it was not his father who wanted to snatch the woman from him, and his face turned red.
Knowing that Wang Ming was not trying to snatch the woman from him, Li Zhi stopped pretending.
“It’s true that she is an immortal, but it’s not impossible for me to practice.
Father, didn’t you say that as long as I practiced the “Emperor’s Greatest Sutra” well, I would naturally reach the immortal realm after I inherited the throne?
She is an immortal, and I am also an immortal, so why am I not worthy? "
Wang Ming pressed his forehead with one hand, resisting the urge to slap him to death, and said, “You only know how to practice the Imperial Supreme World Sutra, and combined with the luck of an emperor, your cultivation can be comparable to that of an immortal.
but……
You don't know that we are not immortals."
Li Zhi asked in confusion: "Not an immortal? What does this mean?"
Wang Ming coughed lightly and said, "I have tried to practice immortal arts and Buddhist teachings, but all ended in failure. In the end, I can only practice martial arts.
My martial arts have made me as powerful as immortals in combat. In close combat, I am even more powerful than immortals of the same level.
but,
After all, martial arts is not the way to immortality.
My cultivation is comparable to that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal. If I am not injured, I can only live for three hundred years at most."
Li Zhi was shocked and said, "Didn't the martial arts classics passed down by my father say that martial artists can live for 500 years? How come you...?"
"Ahem! But I am not a martial arts golden immortal! I am just using the emperor's luck to forcibly elevate my cultivation.
The most taboo for immortality is cause and effect, so immortals will stay away from the mundane world.
emperor!
A summary of cause and effect in the world.
Ahem! ! !
If a famine occurs in the world and causes public resentment, if the emperor does not handle it properly, it will backfire on him.
Well! There is no point in saying more.
Just stay away from her." Wang Ming waved his hand.
Li Zhi suddenly said something that surprised Wang Ming: "Father, if I give up the throne now, can I practice Taoism and achieve immortality? Then I can pursue her?"
"Cough cough cough!" Wang Ming coughed violently several times.
Giving up the throne may seem absurd, but compared with the throne and immortality, it is not surprising.
"Forget about your life. Born in the royal family, every grain of rice you eat and every piece of silk you wear comes from the offerings of the common people. You enjoy the benefits, so you must bear the consequences.
If you don't practice Taoism, you can be less concerned.
If you practice Taoism, you won't be able to pay for the consequences.
But you can choose not to use your luck to increase your cultivation, and rely on your own hard work to cultivate martial arts, and perhaps you can live a few hundred more years."
"Father, I..."
Wang Ming was completely impatient and slapped him away: "Get out of here."
It was not until Li Zhi flew several hundred meters away that Wang Ming suddenly exclaimed: "Oh no, that direction is Zimu River."
