"Fellow Taoist Chen Ke, they are joking. Don't be angry or irritated. We can't even enter the main entrance."
Guo Zhen walked forward quickly and stood in front of several people.
"Fellow Taoist, don't be impulsive, and don't let yourself become a joke in the monastic world because of a momentary dispute of temper." Guo Zhen and Chen Ke said in a low voice.
"My master is very powerful." Wan Ying felt that Guo Zhen had underestimated her master, so she opened her mouth to encourage Chen Ke.
Guo Zhen said with a smile: "Little fellow Taoist, I know your master is powerful, but it's better not to argue about this kind of thing. We are practitioners, and this kind of fighting spirit will only affect our state of mind."
Chen Ke said: "Fellow Taoist Guo Zhen, I am not acting on impulse, but I want to tell you that if you don't try some things, how can you prove that you will definitely fail?"
Chen Ke did not intend to try it as Chen Ke, the master of Lingkong Mountain, but as Chen Ke, a casual cultivator.
"But..." Guo Zhen also wanted to explain that he knew the situation of being laughed at. He was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a corner to crawl in. When he became an immortal, when all his contemporaries were gone, he would use the corner to hide himself. Come out of the corner.
When he came a few days ago, he was blocked from the mountain gate. The disciple guarding the gate was more terrifying than the stone lion. Blocking the door, many well-known figures in the monastic world were all blocked from outside.
"Don't worry, even if they are laughed at, I won't blame them. This is what I want to try." Chen Ke patted Guo Zhen on the shoulder and walked forward.
Chen Ke led Wan Ying and the others towards the mountain gate of Huayue Sect in front. Behind Guo Zhen, Lotus Sister, Zhao Xinyi and others came forward.
Zhao Xinyi said: "He really went."
Guo Zhen glared at Zhao Xinyi angrily and said, "It's not you who insists on running against fellow Taoist Chen Ke. Look at him being humiliated, aren't you happy?"
Zhao Xinyi lowered his head with a guilty conscience, but still defended in a low voice: "I was just saying, who knew he would actually do it? How can a Taoist cultivator achieve the supreme immortality with such little popularity?"
"Okay, don't talk anymore, let's follow up and take a look." Sister Lotus said slowly.
Guo Zhen said: "We don't want to get too close. Just follow him from a distance. If he is driven out and becomes disgraced, and sees us again, he might actually turn around and leave."
Although the birthday party of the leader of the Huayue Sect is a grand event worth coming to, it is not just the Huayue Sect, but also other large sects. Maybe you will meet a few Bo Le who know your own value.
Behind Chen Ke, several people followed.
Du Bailing whispered: "Sir, they are following."
Chen Ke said calmly: "Don't worry, we will just go to the mountain gate."
When we came to the mountain gate, we saw a huge stone gate standing on top of the mountain. The stone gate was three feet high and five feet wide. There was only this stone gate around and no walls. When we walked in, we found the Huayue Sect.
"stop!"
Before Chen Ke could get close, the guarding disciples took action to stop Chen Ke.
People who saw this scene in the distance had different expressions. Zhao Xinyi's eyes were filled with excitement. He secretly thought that it was almost time for Chen Ke to feel ridiculed.
Others also have their own ideas and want to see what Chen Ke's results will be.
"Guys, I am a guest invited by Huayue Sect, why are you stopping me?" Chen Ke asked.
"Do you have an invitation?" the guard disciple asked.
Chen Ke said: "I came here in a hurry. I forgot to bring the invitation with me."
The guarding disciple's expression remained unchanged and he said slowly: "Then do you remember the seal on the invitation?"
"Remember this." Chen Ke nodded and said.
Even in the monastic world, there are anti-counterfeiting marks. Each invitation has the Huayue Sect's special spiritual mark. This mark can only be used by those who see the mark.
Chen Ke immediately used his spiritual power and condensed a spiritual power seal that was the same as the seal on the invitation. After the guard disciple looked at it, he was slightly stunned and said: "It seems to be this one, but the corners are a little different, forget it." Go in and tell the disciple inside who you are, and he will issue a new one for you."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist." Chen Ke thanked him.
"You're welcome." The guard disciple said.
Chen Ke thought for a while and then pointed to a place outside and said: "My friend said that he came to celebrate the birthday of the leader of your sect. They are not allowed to enter the mountain gate and can only go through the side door. Is this true?"
The guarding disciple smiled and said, "No, Huayue Sect has never had such a rule. Anyone can enter as long as there is an invitation."
Chen Ke thanked him and turned to look at Guo Zhen and others who were not far behind: "Fellow Taoist Guo Zhen, come here."
Guo Zhen was a little embarrassed when Chen Ke discovered him, but he still walked out of the crowd and walked towards Chen Ke.
"Fellow Taoist Chen Ke, we didn't mean to follow you, it's just..." Guo Zhen searched for a long time but couldn't find a good reason.
Chen Ke smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Guo Zhen, there is no need to think too much, I have something to tell you here."
"What's the matter?" Guo Zhen asked.
Chen Ke said: "Go and see if you can get in."
Guo Zhen said: "Forget it. Brother Zhao and Brother Lin are both blocked outside. I may not be able to go."
Chen Ke asked: "Do you have an invitation?"
Guo Zhen said: "Yes, if there is no invitation, it is useless to come here."
As he spoke, Guo Zhen took out an invitation from his arms. Chen Ke led him to the front of the Huayue Sect's disciples, put the invitation out and said, "Can this invitation be accepted?"
The guard disciple took it over, opened the invitation, and after using his spiritual power to verify the authenticity inside, he nodded and said, "You can enter."
"Can we enter?" Guo Zhen was dumbfounded. He looked at Chen Ke, a little at a loss. He looked at a straight road leading deep inside the mountain gate, and then looked at Zhao Xinyi and others behind him.
"How is this possible? Why were Brother Zhao and Brother Lin blocked from the door? This is unreasonable." Guo Zhen still doesn't believe that he will be deceived by Zhao Xinyi and Lin Kaitian.
Because at that time Guo Zhen saw Zhao Xinyi and Lin Kaitian being driven out by the guarding disciples. He saw it with his own eyes, so he pulled some casual cultivators to unite and face the aggressive disciples of the big sects together.
However, he did not expect that things would turn out like this.
"Am I being cheated?" Guo Zhen asked.
Chen Ke shook his head and said: "I don't know either, but you should have a scale in your heart that can tell the truth from the false."
Chen Ke didn't need to say more. Guo Zhen naturally understood. He glanced at Zhao Xinyi and others in the distance, sighed slightly and said: "Fellow Taoist, go in. If you want, we'll meet at the side door. If... forget it. No, it's better not to come, I can't help you."
"Brother Guo, why do you say that? I think Brother Guo is upright and a good man with loyalty." Chen Ke said with a smile.
People like Guo Zhen are actually not suitable for cultivation. He values loyalty too much, or in other words, the overall situation of Taikoo.
People like Zhao Xinyi have long been given up in Chen Ke's eyes and are not worthy of being in Chen Ke's team. This kind of person has insufficient achievements and more than enough bad deeds. If placed in the team, it will only increase the disharmony in the team.
This is true for the team of mortals, and even more so for the team of practitioners.
Chen Ke was not optimistic about the person Guo Zhen brought this time, but he felt that Guo Zhen was a person with very good character. Such a person could be brought to Lingkong Mountain, trained by Li Kui, and take charge of a territory.
Guo Zhen turned around and went back. Chen Ke thought for a while, but stepped in. Although he could leave with Guo Zhen, why?
This group of people just met by chance, but there are still people plotting against others. It seems that there may be some interesting things happening at this birthday party.
"Master, why doesn't Uncle Guo Zhen come in with us?" Wan Ying watched clearly from the side, why Guo Zhen was unwilling to go in even though he could obviously go in.
Chen Ke smiled and did not explain. He would rather Wanying didn't know about this kind of thing. This kind of character is either good or bad.
However, in Chen Ke's view, with a little training, he can become a stand-alone general in the future.
The monastic world also lacks such talents. Many people join Taoism for immortality, not to deal with some worldly grievances or grievances between monks.
A large sect needs such talents, because if there are too many people, as long as they are not immortal saints, they will have distracting thoughts, and the emergence of distracting thoughts will lead to disputes and disasters.
But there is only one kind of person who can neutralize such disputes, and that is someone who knows how to handle government affairs in the secular world.
For this reason, many large sects will invite some highly respected officials from the secular world to help them renew their lives and ask them to handle sect affairs.
This is the existence of some Keqing elders, and these Keqing elders are not ordinary elders, but a kind of elders who are in charge of sect affairs. Their power is greater than ordinary elders.
Guo Zhen is such a person, and Chen Ke sees in him a natural ability as an organizer.
"Finding a few will bring him back."
Chen Ke smiled.
"Sister Du, do you know why this is?" Wan Ying asked Du Bailing.
Du Bailing said: "He wants to be a uniter, but there are problems within him. If he doesn't clear up these problems, even if he wants to unite, it will only be the unity of himself. He will never be able to make the divided team move forward. Fusion. Because he himself also has dissatisfaction in his heart, just because he is the leader and cannot vent his temper."
"It's so complicated!" Wan Ying leaned against Chen Ke, grabbed his sleeve and said, "Master, is that so?"
Chen Ke nodded and said: "It's almost the same, but this kind of life is very tiring and makes people confused, so don't imitate him. Some people give up when they should."
Wan Ying held Chen Ke's arm, put it in her arms, and said with tenderness: "If you are Master, I will not give up."
"Haha, silly girl." Chen Ke touched Wan Ying's head.
"The Great Sect Master is so lucky to have found another one?"
