The awe-inspiring battle between the four spirits did not last long. Not long after the four saints appeared in hidden places in all directions carrying tokens, the four huge divine shadows that were clearly visible in the world slowly disappeared, leaving only one. The local people in the town and the visitors from the immortal sect from other places had different thoughts, either shocked or excited. It was an eternal wonder, and people were panicked and talked about it a lot.
Cui Jue, the school teacher in the small town, the old Taoist priest of the Taoist temple in the south of the town, the stonemason in the west of the town, and Qin Guxi, the first disciple of Mozi who first arrived here. The four saints of the three religions and one family who were stationed here each returned from the hidden place, but they did not They returned to their respective places, but gathered together in the Tianzihao guest room among the sea of clouds in the west of the town.
As soon as the four people appeared, Qin Guxi looked at the pair of disciples who were still in the guest room, and said straight to the point: "Shen Yu, Fansheng, you two should go back to your own rooms. There is no need to come over for the time being."
The young man who was sitting on the chair by the window stood up after hearing the words, sheathed his sword, and then saluted the four sitting saints who were gathering for the first time. After that, he had nothing to say and walked out of the guest room in silence. , went back to his guest room. This young man has always been like this. He never talks much and has no extra hobbies. Since he was a child, almost all his attention has been on the long sword in his hand. He loves the sword as much as his life.
On the contrary, the little girl in red, Jiang Chenyu, who had been napping at the desk, looked up in confusion and rubbed her eyes. Then she looked at the four saints gathered together curiously, and then rolled her eyes. He smiled and said: "Grandpa Master, let me listen too. I promise not to interrupt, not to talk too much, and to keep my mouth shut."
Qin Guxi, the saint of Momen with wide robes and long sleeves, hesitated slightly when he heard the words. But before he could refuse, he heard the old Taoist priest with closed eyes who was still holding a bamboo pole said with a smile: "The little girl is talented and intelligent. , maybe he can help us check for leaks and fill in the gaps, so it doesn’t hurt to have a listen here.”
This sounds like a polite word, but it also means affirmation.
Qin Guxi looked at the other two people again. Cui Jue's face was calm and he didn't say anything. It was hard to tell whether he agreed or disagreed. The bald mason who was always friendly and kind had a cheerful smile on his face. Just like a Maitreya Buddha statue enshrined in a temple, there is no objection.
Seeing this, the old man hesitated again, then looked at the girl and said: "Then just listen quietly and don't make a sound. Don't tell others about what's going on here."
The little girl in red nodded obediently, smiled and said nothing.
At this point, the four saints no longer cared about the little girl, and each sat down at the round table in the room. They sat in exactly the four directions, not leaning to one side, neither far nor near.
The first person to speak was the old Taoist Priest of Beilinguan. He waved his Taoist robe sleeves and separated the inside and outside of the guest room just in case, and then his face became serious and he said in a solemn tone: "What do you think about today's matter? Before I came here, Mr. Yun Zhong, who had fought with me, said that this matter was not his handiwork. Pindao also tried it out and found out that there was really no possibility of him being deceitful. Although he had his calculated intentions, the matter evolved into This is really not necessary for him, and it is inconsistent with his position."
As soon as these words came out, there was a slight silence in the room. The other three saints did not speak immediately. The little girl in red who was still lying behind the desk opened a pair of almond eyes, looking at this and then that, her face filled with emotion. novel.
After a moment, the stonemason with a smile on his face spoke first and said with a smile: "It seems to me that the chess player opposite has been laying it out for so many years. The purpose is self-evident. I'm afraid we have to be prepared to have the table flipped by the opposite party." Prepared for emergencies."
"If that's the case..." The white-haired old man Qin Guxi was halfway through his words. After a pause, he said: "I'm afraid it can't be an issue that the four of us can discuss and decide. I'm afraid this matter will have to be sent to China and China. , please Linyuan Academy and various ancestral halls make plans in advance to be prepared for emergencies."
When Mozi's first disciple said these words, the expressions of the other three became more solemn. They nodded slightly but did not speak, which was regarded as acquiescence.
After a topic was finished, the old Taoist priest spoke again: "Then the second question is, what do you think of the problem between the man at the east entrance of the town and the young man? This time the four spirits appeared together, showing off I understand that it is related to that person, but Zhong Zhui has disappeared inexplicably for a long time. In the past, it seemed unbelievable that this invisible method could be hidden from us, but now it seems not that impossible. , this formation has lasted for ten thousand years, and it is inevitable that there will be leaks of wind and rain, but that person should not not know the whereabouts of the bell hammer."
At this point, the three of them all turned to look at the Confucian scholar in blue shirt who had not spoken since entering the guest room. Among the four people present, the last person they had interacted with was this small town private school teacher. , the Confucian sect specially replaced Cui Jue, the guarding saint who was stationed here more than ten years ago.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar frowned slightly when he heard this, not because of the actions of the three people, but because he didn't see that person directly last time, so it couldn't be considered a face-to-face encounter.
On the night when Chu Yuanxiao jumped into Xuannv Lake, he probably didn't want to let the young man be taken away by the Xuanwu spirit at the bottom of the lake, so he suddenly appeared and drank away the one who opened his eyes at the bottom of the lake, and released part of the Book of Heaven. When he came out of the corner, he and the town watchman Hou Junchen were the ones closest to the east entrance of the town at that time, but the two of them actually only saw the faint golden letters in the heavenly book, and neither of them saw the real person.
"I'm afraid it's not easy to judge this matter at the moment. The person doesn't want to show up to see us in person, so we can't force him. However, he seems to have a different attitude towards that young man. There may be some inside stories here that we don't know much about." Cui Jue thought about it. After a while, he shook his head and said that he was also not sure about the specific content of the incident.
But after saying the previous sentence, he thought about it again and continued to add: "The current situation is that, whether intentionally or unintentionally, there are probably some problems with the four major surnames in the town. The Zhu family is intentional. The injustice led to Shuixiu Lake, but it is obvious that there are other people behind Shuixiu Lake. I have already sent a letter to Linyuan Academy to investigate this matter, but there has been no reply. The other three..."
Cui Jue hesitated for a moment and then said: "Over the Chen family, the two direct sword immortals from the Qinglian Sword Sect have arrived in person. You have to ask the Chen family master and the two sword immortals for the specific reason. I also received the family's gift before. The master personally sent a letter on his behalf, and the master also mentioned Yun Zhongjun at that time. In addition, Su Sanzai also mentioned Yun Zhongjun."
At this point, the old Taoist priest picked up what the Confucian scholar was saying and continued: "On the Li family side, there may be changes in the Chengyun royal family. The legitimate son of the Li family leader was taken back to the Chengyun Emperor's capital Chang'an City a long time ago. It was said that it was the imperial family's Zhuguo Ancestral Hall who did not intend to allow him to participate in the Jiazi Agreement. Now it seems that this matter is equally intriguing. If we look at it in connection with the Dao Zheng issue, I am afraid that it is not the same as the first ancestor of the Chengyun royal family. There is a certain connection.”
Later, Qin Guxi from the Mohist family took up the conversation and said slowly: "I have just arrived, and the Liu family is not sure about the specific changes, but I have talked with the blacksmith Gan Quan before, and Master Gan believes that the main problem lies with Liu. Regarding the business of the family, after the batch of whetstones containing Jinzhu Yashan stones were sent to Liangzhou, there were many buyers. Some of them could find out the basics, but some could not. The people on the other side should have passed this change. I have mastered some of the acupoints on the west side of the formation, and it is an irreversible fact that it leaks air and rain."
At this point in the conversation, there was some silence again. The four guarding saints from the three sects and one family each lowered their eyes in thought, and no one spoke.
At this moment, a weak voice came from behind the desk on the side of the guest room, "Seniors and juniors, can I say a word?"
The little girl in red who spoke was a little embarrassed. She kept raising her arms slowly and her face was stunned. She was like a rural school teacher giving a lecture in the thatched cottage and the students in the hall raised their hands to ask questions. She was polite, but her eyes were full of confusion. And with some eagerness to try.
The four saints were all silent for a moment, and then looked at each other and smiled. As expected, the old Taoist priest was right, and the little girl had something to say.
Momen Qin Guxi sat with his back to the girl. He did not turn around when he heard this. There was still a lot of smiles in his eyes, but he deliberately said in a cold voice with a straight face: "How can you talk casually when seniors are discussing matters? Forget it." Did I tell you something before? How can I be so rude... Just think about what you want to say before you say it, and don't say anything that makes no sense!"
The girl looked at the back of her master, wrinkled her nose for no reason, and stuck out her tongue at the old man, with a cute and naive expression, but then she still stood up seriously and saluted the four seniors in the world. In fact, this was not what she liked. As for the way of saluting, she prefers the martial arts way of clasping fists, but at this moment, no one here is a casual person, so she can only awkwardly use the daughter's way, Wei Wei Blessing, and then said: "Junior, you have It’s a guess. It’s very possible that the young man named Chu has already seen the senior... hanging on the tree. If you want to know what senior... Zhong means, maybe you can ask that young man."
The four old men sitting at the round table looked at each other with strange expressions when they heard this. Finally, the Confucian scholar Cui Jue said with a smile: "Oh? How can you see that?"
In fact, all four of them knew that the young man had a special attitude towards the young man. This could be clearly seen from the incident at Xuannv Lake. It was actually no longer possible to say that the young man had met that young man. There was a huge possibility that It's possible, but the little girl in front of them must intervene in this situation. Maybe she has some other ideas, so the four of them want to hear what the little girl has to say.
After receiving permission, the girl in red, Jiang Chenyu, glanced at the Confucian scholar in blue, smiled and saluted Mr. Cui with a cupped fist, and then continued: "This junior has a general understanding of the various situations in the town since it opened. The most special and most special situation. What is eye-catching is nothing more than the series of actions of Shuixiu Lake and the Yunlin Sect's family towards the boy. I believe all seniors also know that these two things are abnormal, plus a piece of news I accidentally heard from Master Gan , it was said that the Honglian Jijiu from Fengxue Tower had come to the town to look for the boy, so the juniors blindly guessed that the people behind these two families probably wanted to put the boy to death, but if this matter were to be dealt with in a big battle with Yanguan Put together a series of changes, this matter seems more complicated and intriguing. It is not even possible to say whether the two families are behind the same group of people...including the deceased Chu master's uncle, and the Liang The old worshipper, everything is weird, but they all surround that one person. Under such circumstances...if all the seniors don't know the inside story, I'm afraid only senior Zhong knows something, so the junior guesses that The senior's choice is likely to be based on all or some of these things."
"The situation is so critical. If that senior is still unwilling to talk to all the seniors, there are only two possibilities. One is that he has a plan of his own, and the other is that he has already chosen a backup plan..."
Although the girl's series of speculations were thoughtful when speaking, there was almost no stumbling. If she had not thought about it for a long time, it could only be said that she was quick-witted and strategizing. Her last sentence sounded very... He affirmed: "Coupled with the analysis of the previous basket, this junior's blind guess is that this backhand is most likely that boy!"
This statement is certain, even if she misses the mark, she is not far off... Or it can be said that she guessed 95% of the 10% of the stories!
After the words fell, the four people sitting at the round table had different expressions. Finally, the other three looked at the leader of the Mo sect who was sitting with his back to the girl with strange expressions. The meaning in his eyes was almost the same: You didn't care about your status and clenched your fists to masturbate. This disciple's granddaughter would rather turn against her to snatch her away. It's worth grabbing!
Speaking of which, the saint who sits in charge of Momen has never been very pushy. There are only three things in his life that he is well-known to on the Jiuzhou Mountains, in the rivers and lakes, and in the temples.
The first thing is the famous "from Confucianism to Mozi". When the second head of the Mo family was young, he once became a disciple of the Confucian school, but later withdrew from the Confucian school and became the first disciple of Mozi. The world was in an uproar, and many people even felt that he could not see the situation clearly, and his words were quite sarcastic. They had criticized him for many years, but Mr. Qin himself turned a deaf ear to it and dismissed it.
The second event was "stopping Chu and attacking Song". It was also a major event that happened in Shijizhou, but once swept all nine continents. Although both of them are gone now, when the incident happened, there was a saying The famous saying comes from Mozi, "Even if you kill your ministers, you can't kill them." The person who could support his master to speak such bold words even though he was thousands of miles away was the Qinzi of the Mo family who was used to keeping a low profile in front of him.
Although the third thing is not as famous as the first two, it is actually widely spread among the large and small forces above the third level in Jiuzhou. There is a mysterious and mysterious version of the saying that about ten years ago, the second shopkeeper of Xianxue Momen, who was sitting behind closed doors, suddenly heard from his heart one day that a god and man taught him in a dream that the general of Nanxizhou, just south of Jiuzhou, A girl is destined to be born, and she will become the destiny successor of the Qinzi lineage of the Mo clan. Her future destiny is extremely precious, and she is born to be a prince!
This idea of "the appearance of a prince" is very thought-provoking. Although there are so many female monks in the world of Jiuzhou, there are also quite a few who are successful in cultivating the world. The most famous one is the one from the Xihe Sword Sect. Mr. Gongsun, the founder of the mountain, is truly one of the greatest masters in the world. However, although there is no limit to the number of women on the road between rivers and lakes, it is another matter on the road between temples. There are hundreds of empires, but it is rare for women to participate in politics, let alone achieve the title of prince, so there are different opinions about the dream grant from the gods back then.
But no matter what outsiders say, the second head of the Mo clan left the country immediately after this incident, traveled thousands of miles south from Zhongtu Divine Continent to Nanxi Continent, and after many investigations, he set his sights on the Nanxi Jiang family, because at that time There happened to be a newborn girl in the direct line of the powerful Jiang family. Judging from the time, it was precisely at the time when the god and man dreamed of giving her birth.
Of course, if this is the case, it will not spread to the entire Jiuzhou third rank or above. The real problem lies in the fact that this newborn girl is the only daughter of the head of the Jiang family in Nanxi, a serious little princess of Banzhou. It is so high that it is rare in the world! Moreover, the Nanxi Jiang family has its own ancestral knowledge, so why would she agree to gather her beloved little princess to follow her and learn the orthodox knowledge elsewhere?
The contradiction is there, the two sides are in a stalemate, and no one can convince the other. One side insists on recruiting disciples on behalf of the other, but the other side disagrees life and death. The final result is that the Jiang family has no choice but to ask the second-generation ancestor to come out in person. Guan, uncovered the ancestral tablets and the roof of the family ancestral hall, showed up, and reasoned with the second head of the Mo family face to face!
The final result of that fierce and dark arm-wrestling was unknown to outsiders, but the final result of the matter of accepting disciples was that both parties took a step back, and the knowledge of both families was given to the little girl, and they taught each other everything they had. Which knowledge the little girl learns better depends on which one is more capable of teaching!
This final result is what really makes countless third-level and above informed Xianmen Blessed Land's eyes drop to the ground. After all, there is a saying in Jiuzhou Jianghu that the law is not passed lightly. I have never heard of any disciple still doing it. Being able to learn the knowledge of two orthodox traditions at the same time, this kind of "sitting on the wall" of apprenticeship is actually the result of the two families fighting each other and refusing to give in. It is really a strange story through the ages!
So this sleepy, cute little girl is destined to become a favorite in the eyes of many people from the time she was born. Although she may not be able to win the apprenticeship over those two families, she might be able to win over her own family. If a disciple has the good fortune to win the favor of a little girl, how can he marry her? One person and two Taoist traditions, coupled with the glorious allusion of "the dream of a god and a man" from the second head of the Mo family, wouldn't it be a sure way to make a lot of money?
At this moment, the four town gatekeepers sitting in the Tianzi guest room in Yunhaijian had different expressions. As the little girl's direct ancestor, Qin Guxi tried his best to calm down the corners of his lips that couldn't help but pretend to be angry: "Little girl You are not ashamed of your words, and you are doing everything you want in front of the seniors in the world. You don’t know what you are good at. You should be more careful in the future and never do this again!"
The three people across from me couldn't say much due to their status and cultivation, but they all rolled their eyes inwardly. They were so obedient when they got an advantage. You old man didn't even look at the corners of your lips that couldn't be suppressed. They were raised to the sky!
I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say anything on my face. The saints of the three religions still have to pay attention to the rule of "don't say anything inappropriate", so the topic of secret discussion between the four people turned around and returned to the business, and that After finishing speaking, the little girl made a face behind her master, and then lay back on the desk to take a nap.
The old Taoist priest with closed eyes in an old Taoist robe pondered slightly, then raised his head and said slowly to the Confucian scholar in blue: "The little girl is right. It seems that you and Mr. Na Su are going to accept the young man as his disciple." This matter may have to start in advance. This matter is not only about the ownership of the Taoist system, but the safety of this place may also depend on that young man!"
Safety and danger are tied together, supporting the building when it is about to collapse, and turning the tide before it falls!
