As the morning glow was just rising, Li Mu came to Chaoyang Peak as usual to hold his breath. The imminent marriage cannot affect his longing for longevity.
After breaking through the peak of martial arts training, he is already very sensitive to changes in his body. Ever since he switched to the new version of Zixia Divine Art, Li Mu felt that the vitality in his body was constantly growing.
It is not yet possible to make a conclusion whether it is the effect brought by the exercises, or whether he has really absorbed the vitality of the Xiaguang.
After a day of practice, I took a bath in the medicinal bath that had been prepared, and it was another refreshing day.
Although ordinary medicated baths have no significant effect on improving Li Mu's cultivation base, they are still good for nourishing meridians and recuperating trauma.
? Especially the cultivation of meridians, for those who practice martial arts: the meridians are not only the most important place, but also the most vulnerable place, which must be carefully cared for.
The cultivation of internal strength may seem ordinary, but it is actually extremely dangerous. Sometimes running two more big circles may damage the meridians.
If the internal energy is exhausted when fighting with people, the damage will be even greater.
Once or twice may seem inconspicuous, but if it is piled up ten times or eight times, it may lead to broken tendons and complete failure of martial arts.
To solve this problem, the best way is to cultivate on a daily basis, after all, not everyone is the protagonist.
What's more, long-term use of medicated baths can also widen the meridians to a certain extent, increase the speed of cultivation, and increase the limit of internal strength.
Being able to take a medicated bath at any time is also one of the benefits of the head. Although ordinary disciples also use medicated baths, not only the grades of medicated baths are different, but the number of times is also limited.
Of course, this kind of extravagant behavior is only limited to the growth period of cultivation. Once it reaches the limit of personal cultivation, it will stop.
The heads of the various schools in the martial arts are almost all strong in the same realm, and it is through this little bit that they are slowly piled up.
After taking a bath and changing clothes, Li Mu started to inspect the mountain again. The master became addicted to cultivating the Tao and didn't care about other things. Others couldn't surpass him, so only Li Mu had to worry about the marriage.
?Because of the approaching wedding, Ning Zhong also came out to meet him again, which made Li Mu even more depressed
The disciple guarding the mountain hurriedly said: "Master, an imperial decree has arrived."
Hearing the word "imperial decree", Li Mu almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. The rivers and lakes and the imperial court have always been two worlds. Could it be that the little emperor's head has convulsions again?
After a pause, Li Mu asked: "The person who delivered the decree, did you say what the content is?"
"We asked, but the eunuch who delivered the decree refused to say it, and he would read it out only after seeing you in person."
I saw the visitor shaking his head and replied. There is also a bit of excitement in his expression, it can be seen that he is still very interested in this sudden imperial decree.
After thinking about it, Li Mu said in a deep voice, "Forget it, let's take them up the mountain first!"
Anyway, it is still under the Ming Dynasty. Although the Huashan School is a martial arts school, it would be too disrespectful to the court to reject the person who passed the decree.
Just deep in his heart, Li Mu was already puzzled. If it was for Shaolin and Wudang, he could still understand that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty had a tradition of canonizing Buddhism and Taoism.
Although the Huashan School is also a Taoist school, it can't stand that the patriarch is the famous "Northern Seven Truths", one of the proper Quanzhen direct descendants, and belongs to the target of the imperial court's suppression.
Waiting to see who came, Li Mu was slightly taken aback. I don't know if it's because the world is too small, or the little emperor did it on purpose, and it was an old acquaintance who delivered the decree.
"Eunuch Gu, I've troubled you to go there yourself. It seems that the weight of today's imperial decree is not light!"
Li Mu said angrily. The last time I met Gu Dayong, he was robbed of the fattest booty, and he still has some pain in his flesh.
As if not hiding Li Mu's teasing, Gu Dayong responded with a subterranean tone: "Master Li is flattering you. It is our family's honor to serve the emperor, so there is no need to bother!
Let's not talk more nonsense, now let Leader Li take the order first! If the task is completed as soon as possible, our family will also go to the business. "
"Eunuch Gu, please tell Li the content of the imperial decree! If you don't know anything, you will not dare to accept this imperial decree."
While speaking, Li Mu's breath locked onto Gu Dayong, making it difficult for the eunuch to stand under the pressure.
Fortunately, this breath comes and goes quickly, or Gu Dayong will make a fool of himself in public.
Gu Dayong's mood suddenly sank after taking a slap in the face, but the smile on his face?? became thicker.
This is the way of survival he developed in the palace as a eunuch. It has almost become an instinct to lie low to the strong.
"Don't worry, head Li, this is a great thing. The emperor will confer the title of Guangning Zhenjun, the patriarch of the noble sect, and the title of head Li as Daoist Dongxuan"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Dayong felt a little regretful. There is no problem in granting the title of Guangning Zhenjun. No one will refuse to add a title to the Patriarch.
It's just that Dongxuan Daoist has yet to be studied. After all, Li Mu is not a Taoist priest, and it is really nondescript to take over this title.
"If it's just these things, Li will take over this imperial decree. Please trouble your father-in-law to pass it on to the emperor. I will accept this love from the Huashan faction."
It's just a title, and it won't lose a piece of meat. Li Mu doesn't mind giving the emperor a face.
?Being a Taoist priest is nothing more than being a Taoist. Anyway, not all Taoists have to become monks, as long as they don't enter the Quanzhen Taoism.
If you are in a hurry, just open another branch in the Taoist sect. Anyway, the patriarch in the door has already set an example, and everyone has long been familiar with it.
While speaking, Li Mu stretched out his hand. Tell Gu Dayong with practical actions, don't play tricks, just take out the imperial decree.
After hesitating again and again, Gu Dayong handed over the imperial decree tremblingly, scolding him deep in his heart.
He never dreamed that Li Mu, who was easy to talk to last time he met, suddenly seemed like a different person.
Not only is the martial arts unbelievably high, but even the momentum has undergone earth-shaking changes. Li Mu gave him the feeling now, just like when the man in the palace was angry, as if he might kill him at any time.
In order to go back to the business, Gu Dayong bite the bullet and said: "Master Li, what about the northwest?"
In an instant, Li Mu understood that after so many emotions, he just wanted the Huashan faction to help with the aftermath.
King Anhua's rebellion was suppressed, but bandits and bandits sprung up like mushrooms after rain, threatening the rule of the court.
Especially those demon sects who followed King Anhua, except for the Sun Moon God Sect who went to Guangdong and Guangxi. The Xuedaomen, Tairimen, Hunyun Sect, and Xieyunzong have taken root in the northwest.
The imperial court sent masters to encircle and suppress, but not only failed, even the head of the new governor was cut off and hung on the gate of Lingzhou.
If he was an emperor with strong self-esteem, he would definitely continue to send more experts, increase the intensity of encirclement and suppression, and kill these guys who provoke the imperial power at all costs.
Unfortunately, Emperor Zhengde is obviously not such a person. With a flexible mind, he once again played with borrowing a knife to kill.
It's just an imperial decree and two titles. These are the things he needs the most. If it can be exchanged for Huashan faction to help stabilize the Northwest, no matter how you look at it, it will be a blood profit.
After figuring out the ins and outs, Li Mu said righteously: "Please rest assured, father-in-law, it is our bounden duty to eliminate demons and defend the way. In a few days, our Huashan faction will take action to exterminate these demons and heretics."
It is not terrible to be used by others, the most terrible thing is that there is no use value.
The Demon Cult wants to take root in the Northwest, and it is already having trouble with the Huashan faction, and conflicts will happen sooner or later.
This imperial decree is at most only the time to catalyze the outbreak of the conflict. Deep down in his heart, Li Mu had already started to think about how to deal with those desperate demon sects
The sudden episode did not affect the continuation of the wedding. The Huashan faction was not the only one conferred by the court in this wave, and Shaolin Wudang also did not fall behind.
It can be seen that the struggle between the court and the court has reached a feverish stage, and the emperor can't care about the rivers and lakes for the time being. The thick-skinned Zhu Houzhao decisively chose to appease Wulin.
Amidst the sound of firecrackers and the sound of suona, Li Mu, who was dressed in a red wedding dress, took the lead, followed by a large sedan chair with eight lifts, and appeared at the gate of Yuquan Palace.
According to the custom, Ningzhong, who was dressed in yellow Bixialuo embroidered with a phoenix, a pink smoked gauze skirt that stretched across the floor, holding Qiluocui tulle in her hand, and a peony flower slanted on her temples, was ushered into the sedan chair. .
Fortunately, everyone is a master of martial arts. Otherwise, if they play like this on the steep Huashan Mountain, they may not be able to reach Chaoyang Peak, and the happy event will become a funeral.
Above the hall, Zhou Qingyun and several older Huashan sect elders sat on the high hall, acting as the parents of both parties.
The chapel ceremony was completed without any novelty, and the banquet began as soon as the bride entered the wedding room.
Before Li Mu could react, the invited guests surrounded him. They seemed to be congratulating, but in fact they were drinking.
The brothers from the same school were not polite, and at this time, one after another, one after another, one cup after another.
The alcohol content is not high, but it can't hold up to a large amount! Only at this time did Li Mu realize how important it is to practice a martial art that can expel alcohol from the body.
When he was in a daze and was almost in a trance, Li Mu got rid of the crowd and pushed awayStone, cup after cup.
