This young Taoist priest who is only fifteen years old is named "Cheng Hui". He is a disciple of Nanxu, the high priest of Shentai Palace, and the young master of Shentai Palace.
Although he is only nine years younger than the 24-year-old high priest of Nanxu, he is a full generation older than the high priest because of his title as master and disciple.
Orange Hui was originally a beggar with "no eyes". He wandered and begged at the gate of Shentai Palace, and was almost beaten to death by the royal guards patrolling the mountains outside Shentai Palace.
But it was his good fortune that he happened to be noticed by the young Nan Xu who was about to go out.
Perhaps because he had good bones, Nanxu rescued him and brought him into the Shentai Palace.
In the beginning, he only started as a seven-year-old child, serving as a Taoist boy, serving the palace every day and asking for the incense-burning utensils. Later, six years later, he was accepted as a disciple by the high priest of Nanxu, and his status naturally increased along with it.
He was originally an unknown little Taoist boy, but at the young age of only thirteen, he became the disciple of the high priest and the most promising young master, Shao Si, to become the next priest.
Now he is only a fifteen-year-old boy. Although he has not been officially crowned, he has been the quasi-major minister of Shentai Palace for two years.
At this time, there were four young Taoist priests from Shentai Palace accompanying his sedan chariot. One of them heard his words and frowned and asked, "Master Shaosi, is there something wrong?"
Cheng Hui was slightly startled, then shook his head.
"Nothing, I just took a quick glance and felt that the back of one of the guests looked familiar."
However, how many people in the world have similar profiles? I guess he thought too much.
Cheng Hui was slightly silent. Although the Tianchen royal family had announced that his uncle, the goddess of the Shentai Palace, the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal", was now praying for the people in the Shentai Palace, but as the young master of the Shentai Palace, he knew that the master My uncle's people are not actually in the Shentai Palace.
only......
Every time he mentioned his uncle, he wondered why Tianchen Chaotang said that his uncle was in Shentai Palace, but his master would always darken his face and coldly ask him to go out...
never mind.
His master, Priest Nanxu, and his uncle, the "Thousand-Year-Old Sword Immortal", had practiced and grown up together since childhood and had a close friendship. Since the master had not spoken, I guess his uncle would not be in any danger.
——What's more, Cheng Hui thought proudly: Uncle Master is the number one swordsman in this world, and the only two swordsmen who have stepped into the realm of immortals. Who can do anything to her? Unless a peerless master of the same Immortal Mysterious Realm fights her to the death.
Nowadays, in the world of martial arts, apart from his master and the "Priest of the Divine Platform", only the "Qiankun Sword Immortal" from Fuji City has entered the Zixian Mysterious Realm.
——With two peerless masters, his master and his uncle, sitting in Zhaoge, he expected that the "World Sword Immortal" from Fuji City would not be so ignorant and dare to come to Zhaoge City to cause trouble.
So, if you ask him, his uncle is probably out for sightseeing!
So much so that every time he mentioned his uncle in the past year or so, the master's face would darken on the spot and his aura would be gloomy. He must have been angry because his uncle left him without saying goodbye.
——Everyone knows that the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" Tianchen Princess Fu Jing's elegant and dignified poems, charming the country, beautiful appearance and wisdom, are a royal model.
But only those who are close and acquainted with her uncle know that although her uncle is beautiful and very intelligent, her temperament is also the most impatient of being restrained.
In order to practice swordsmanship when she was young, she traveled all over the world with her sword attendant Lu Shangque, honing her sword skills in the vast rivers, deserts, and snow-capped mountains.
However, as the only eldest daughter of the Tianchen Dynasty, His Majesty’s sister, the best swordsman in the Southern Dynasties, the goddess of the Shentai Palace, the giant tree in the eyes of the people of Tianchen—any of these Due to her identity, she is destined to be unable to be unrestrained and free to do as she pleases.
Cheng Hui sighed softly in his heart. He obviously had martial arts cultivation and realm that was unparalleled in the world, but he had to be trapped in the imperial capital for the rest of his life without being able to feel at ease...
I wonder where his uncle has traveled now, can he find a moment of freedom?
However, if she doesn't come back sooner, I'm afraid that after she comes back, the master will have to have a cold war with her for many days with a "night mother face".
"Master Shaosi, Mr. An, the manager of the princess's residence, has just reported. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess will come to the gate of the mansion to greet you personally. At this time, there are distinguished guests with the princess, so she can't get away for a while."
Cheng Hui was not angry when his thoughts were interrupted. He held the corners of his lips and smiled faintly.
"It's okay, no need to wait, let's go in first."
His smile was not as bright as his eyes, and there was even a hint of sarcasm. Originally, his coming here today was just a formality for the high priest.
Princess Pingyang must have heard that the high priest of his family did not come in person today, so why did she have the patience to come to the door of the house to greet him, the young minister?
He couldn't stay for more than a moment, so why should he accompany her to play out this warm and welcoming scene where she felt at home?
Cheng Hui got off the sedan, shook his head and chuckled: Speaking of which, Princess Pingyang is really interesting...
She has always been compared with Princess Tianchen since she was a child, but she is always inferior to Princess Tianchen.
If that was all, that would be it, but she knew very well that Princess Tianchen was the goddess of Shentai Palace, so she still wanted to show her favor to Shentai Palace in everything, even offering incense to Shentai Palace during festivals. They are the ones with the largest share among the dignitaries in Zhaoge City, and they spend a lot of money.
In fact, the reason why she acted like she had a close relationship with the Shentai Palace was just to antagonize her uncle, a goddess. Little did she know that his uncle had never taken her little thought into his heart.
However, although Princess Pingyang showed her kindness in every possible way, her master, the High Priest of Nanxu, did not like her very much.
Thinking about it, his master's divine appearance attracted only a handful of people. Even if the emperor occasionally asked him to do divination and ask questions about the sky, he always bluntly rejected the holy will - even the emperor's face was not respected. given.
In the words of the Nanxu High Priest, the world-famous divination skills of their Shentai Palace come at the cost of the lives of those who ask questions. One more divination will shorten one's life span by several days. How could those ordinary people not be worthy of him spending his life predicting their future?
but......
Cheng Hui was also a little puzzled. Although his master taught him this way every time before, telling him to be smart and not follow the old path of the ancestors of his sect, leading to his death at the end of his life... But In the past year and a half, he accidentally caught his master "asking for fortune" in private more than a dozen times!
——If it weren’t for the fact that asking for divination and asking the sky so frequently is too harmful to the body, and the master’s powerful Zixianxuan realm power is still beyond his capabilities, I’m afraid the number of times the master would ask the sky would be more than this.
What kind of big event happened that made his master, the Nanxu Priest, who had always been careless about everything, so concerned about it that he actually frequently performed one of the most mysterious and unpredictable techniques of the high priest in the Shentai Palace - Wentian. Do you think you are willing to sacrifice your own life?
Could it be that there will be some major natural or man-made disaster in Tianchen in the next few years?
Could it be that Master discovered some clues while stargazing, so he kept asking the divination divination?
strangeness.
