After chatting all the way, the two parties separated at the Yaxi River on the border of Xiling County. One group went northwest to Chongzhou to inspect the border defense, and the other group headed east back to Xianlingguan. There was not much distance left.
Zhu Xun welcomed Guanzhu Zhang back on behalf of the Daolu Academy because he truly valued Guanzhu Zhang's contribution.
Give due courtesy and protection, but it is impossible to send it to the doorstep like a guard, as that would be inconsistent with etiquette.
The two of them communicated alone for a long time on the road. Zhu Xun specifically explained that the leak of the secret two years ago by Guanzhu Zhang killing the Wu Clan guardian came from the mouth of a free-spirited monk named Yin Zheng from Cuizhu Temple in Qizhou.
Yin Zheng participated in the rescue, but did not help and saw the messy scene.
At that time, Guanzhu Zhang and Gu Gu, the guardian, were talking secretly. The other monks who had dispersed were also idle. Friends gathered in twos and threes and communicated with each other. After analysis, they came to the conclusion that Guanzhu Zhang had killed the guardian of the Witch Clan. Afterwards, Gu Gu issued a hush order, and even more confirm their suspicions.
Yin Zheng was not strict with his words. He drank a lot of wine when he got together with his friends, so he talked about this matter as a topic of conversation.
Afterwards, I realized that it was too late to tell my friends at the party. There were so many people talking, and such shocking news had spread long ago. The spies planted by the Great Liang Dynasty collected it and spread it back to Dongping Prefecture, causing a big trouble for Zhang Guanzhu.
After the Daolu Yuan found out the truth, they detained Yin Zheng in Daolu Yuan Prison in the capital and sentenced him to fifty years of confinement as punishment.
At that time, many people used various methods to plead for mercy. They felt that the sentence was too harsh.
In a prison, the spiritual energy is naturally thin and the evil energy is mixed. After fifty years, a monk with a promising future in the Free Realm has basically no hope of advancing to the Breakthrough Realm.
It was the Taoist Supervisor and the guardian Gu Gu, who had not yet died, who insisted on upholding the heavy sentence against all opinions.
Zhang Wenfeng only said about this, "There are no rules, and we follow the opinions of the Daolu Academy." He did not express any opinions on Yin Zheng, nor did he say whether the sentence should be light or heavy.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Zhu Xun also proposed something to him, hoping that he would serve in the Capital Daolu Academy and give full play to his talents. In addition to protecting Zhang Guanzhu, he obviously wanted to reuse Zhang Guanzhu.
Zhang Wenfeng did not agree immediately. He only said that he had just got out of trouble and needed time to stabilize his cultivation state of mind. He thanked Taoist Master Zhu for his appreciation.
After watching Zhu Xun and the others leave, Zhang Wenfeng told Tu Kun about these two things. He had not been back for too long and needed to understand the current trends in the Da'an Dynasty's cultivation world.
Tu Kun gave his eight-character evaluation of Yin Zheng's fate: "It's your own fault, and it's your own fault."
There was no one to keep his mouth shut, and everything that should be said and should not be said came out, which blinded his cultivation and identity in the realm of freedom. At that time, there were rumors outside that the master of the Fairy Spirit Temple had been in danger for two years, and his life and death were uncertain. Maybe he would be able to escape. coming.
Many people, the Master, were secretly watching the joke.
The Fairy Spirit Temple rises too quickly, becomes too popular, and its big tree attracts the wind. Some people will be jealous and say weird things.
The old guard had a long-term view and knew a lot about physiognomy, so he didn't think Zhang Wenfeng was short-lived. It happened that the Taoist sect of Da'an was in decline, and there would be no golden elixir monks in charge. When troubles were easy to occur, he used Chongdian to take the opportunity to kill chickens and monkeys, and kill evil spirits. Evil spirit, establishing the authority of Daolu Academy.
Yesterday, after he and Zhu Xun met, Zhu Xun deliberately revealed the secret to him.
After ignoring Yin Zheng's incident, Tu Kun talked about an unrelated matter and said with a smile: "Master, just come back. I can retreat in peace and ignore the complicated things. You also know the temper of the mountain leader, he is too serious. , mother-in-law, if there is any important matter that he thinks, he will come to me to discuss it, so that I can't be clean."
He is not an annoyance to the mountain chief. A mountain gate needs someone who can take care of everything in detail. The mountain chief often comes to him for trivial matters, but deep down he still feels alienated from him and is worried about his feelings.
In the past, when the temple master was in the sect, he didn't care about any chores, but the mountain chief could still handle it?
Where will frequent discussions take place?
Most of the time, the viewer is a hands-off shopkeeper.
Zhang Wenfeng took a closer look at Tu Kun, who looked like an old farmer, and asked with a smile: "Are you going to break through?"
Tu Kun laughed and said: "After a year of suppressing the realm, it is time to restore the fourth level of cultivation. I heard that Gu Quan of Jinfeng Temple is in seclusion to attack the Golden Core realm. We can't fall behind others."
Zhang Wenfeng smiled and said: "What kind of heavenly materials and earthly treasures do we need to prepare? We don't have any, so we can ask the Daolu Academy to replace them."
"No, I'll take one drop of Shen Yin Ji Shan Ye, which is enough."
Tu Kun said it very easily. If he walked through it again, he would know when to press and when to break.
This is also a small reason why Zhu Xun wants to win over the master to go to the capital to become an official. Being able to become the first Jindan monk in the Da'an Dynasty, his vision is not bad, and he can see his restrained state at this time.
The two of them chatted about some family gossip and landed outside the mountain gate.
The renovated Shanmen archway is seven feet high, majestic and majestic, with exquisite and ancient carvings. The three characters "Xianlingguan" hanging high are traced from the plaque in the main hall and then enlarged. The golden light shines, and the sect's atmosphere is fully displayed even without the mountains. Extraordinary.
Under the three-foot-deep archway door, the mountain chief and Yue Anyan led a group of disciples and bowed:
"Congratulations to welcome the temple master back to the mountain gate!"
More than sixty disciples were divided into four rows and lined up neatly. They were all dressed in blue robes, and they looked full of energy.
Zhang Wenfeng glanced at Tu Kun, why are you doing this? He bowed his hands in return, asked everyone to stand up, and walked forward to greet the mountain chief and Yue Anyan. He held Hu Qian'er's hand, who had not seen him grow for so many years and was still pink and beautiful, and smiled and nodded at the familiar faces with excited expressions, and then He stretched out his hand to invite Tu Kun and walked toward the spacious bluestone avenue inside.
We went to the main hall on the top of the mountain to burn incense and worshiped the Taoist ancestors and masters together.
The disciples went down the mountain and dispersed. A few people drank tea and chatted in the west hall until the sun set over the water and the meal bell rang from the bottom of the mountain.
The bottle of "Shuihuanhunsan" refined by Yang Shuilan was handed over to Yue Anyan and asked them to go down the mountain to have a meal first, while Zhang Wenfeng and Tu Kun left behind.
The donkey had to run forward. It didn't say anything, it just looked at the viewer with its big black eyes, and it didn't move out of the way.
"I almost forgot to give you a gift."
Zhang Wenfeng smiled and took out the booklet and said: "This is the technique given to you by Master Fayuan. You will be happy to read it carefully."
After dismissing the wandering donkey, he took out a blue bottle, handed it to Tu Kun, and said with a smile: "Yang Shuilan gave Lezi some bodybuilding medicine in a roundabout way." To simplify the matter.
Tu Kun uncorked the bottle, took a sniff, and said with a cheerful smile: "The essence of jade bone is mixed with the essence of water transport, tsk tsk, good stuff, interesting. What is Yang Shuilan doing? Wanting an old cow to eat young grass, but also thinking about it. Fucked my stupid, clumsy apprentice?"
Smiling unceremoniously, Shi Shiran put away the bottle.
"Don't talk nonsense, don't let Lezi know, otherwise he won't accept it if it doesn't follow his temper."
Zhang Wenfeng smiled and asked.
Tu Kun raised his hands and walked towards the back mountain, "Tell him when the fun is over, can that kid be scraped off the skin? Hehe, one is a sad relationship, and the other is a lingering love, the cold ashes are resurrected, Yang Shuilan will be in big trouble if she wants to break through to the fifth level."
He smiled happily.
"How can a master like you not wish to have some apprentices?"
Zhang Wenfeng stood still and asked with a smile: "When will you retreat? Just call the mountain gate formation."
"I'll wake up tomorrow."
Tu Kun disappeared after a few steps.
Zhang Wenfeng sighed a few words for Lezi, saying that if he encountered a teacher who was not kind, he would suffer a lot, so he walked towards the mountain road to the south.
Hu Qiang'er flew over with a swish of a wooden sword and invited with a smile: "Master, are you free now? Let's go see the spiritual plants in Wangxia Ridge and Xitan Ridge. They are growing very well."
