The old master came in with a long string of heads, and the expressions of all the disciples in Fengyu Temple changed.
"I may have been too talkative these years."
The old dean walked forward slowly and spoke slowly. Neither his pace nor his tone seemed to have the slightest murderous intent.
But this long string of heads can scare people so much that they don't even dare to take a second look.
"Shangyang Palace has always opened its doors to welcome guests. Regardless of status, anyone willing to come to Shangyang Palace is welcome."
"I have been telling you all these years that we cannot stop anyone from yearning for Taoism."
"But some people, even though the door is open, they just like to sneak around and stare outside."
The old man walked to the high platform, and as soon as he let go, the heads fell to the ground. I don't know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but the two heads were facing the sky.
Only then did people discover that the rope was as long as the disciples' team.
Heads from one end to the other.
The old master walked slowly onto the high platform, and everyone bowed and saluted.
"Cleaning up."
The old master called out as he walked up, and the priest Shang Qingyu of the Dali Sect quickly leaned over and said, "Disciple is here."
The old master asked: "Just last month, you talked to me about these things. You told me at that time that there were so many people watching outside Shangyang Palace. Do you want to invite me in? They might be a little embarrassed to come. , let’s go and invite you.”
He turned back to look at Shang Qingyu: "I didn't allow you to invite me. At that time, you complained, saying that Shangyang Palace should be hospitable."
Shang Qing finished and said: "This disciple has the same attitude now. Shangyang Palace should be hospitable."
Then he said: "The master can listen to what the disciple has to say, and the disciple is also very happy."
The old master nodded slightly, then turned back to look at the thousands of disciples under the high platform.
"Inviting them in as guests was Qing Rui's intention. If he wanted to go, I might as well go by myself because after much thought, Qing Rui was right."
The old master sat down on the lotus throne on the high platform, and his disciples leaned over to salute again.
"Every year, there are always people outside looking at Shangyang Palace's Fengyu Temple. We ignore them because they think we can be bullied."
The old man said: "I am not interested in knowing why these people came, whose words they listened to, whose orders they followed, and why they secretly monitor every move in Fengyu Temple."
"But from today on, Shangyang disciples should remember that Shangyang Palace is hospitable. If you encounter such guests in the future, just invite them in."
He glanced at everyone: "Do you remember everything?"
"Follow the Master's orders!"
Everyone bowed and agreed.
"When Qing Hao talked to me last time, I said to him, you are already old, so don't be so angry..."
He looked at Shang Qingyu: "Are you still angry now?"
Shang Qingyu leaned over and said, "To be honest, I still have disciples."
The headmaster said: "Since you have it, then follow me to Yunzhou in a few days."
Speaking of this, his voice became solemn.
"I just received news. His Majesty sent someone to tell me that the Tianshuiya branch in Yunzhou was destroyed. Hundreds of disciples were killed. All the buildings in the branch were destroyed. Only the chief minister, Nie Wuzhi, was alive. Halfway to Geling."
He asked: "Nie Wuzhi came to tell me that Shangyang Palace was bullied?"
He said, "No, he came to tell me the names of the hundreds of children, where they are from, and how old they are."
The old man breathed out slowly.
"Some people say that it's because I chose Xin Yanque to inherit the position of headmaster, and the highly respected people in Fengyu Temple are not satisfied."
"Some people say that actually they are not dissatisfied with Xin Yanque, nor do they dare. They are dissatisfied with Nie Wuzhi being the master of Fengyu Temple."
The old master looked at the four Dali Jiao priests: "Are you talking about the four of you?" In fact, there were five Dali Jiao priests in Shangyang Palace's Fengyu Temple, but one of them had a duel with Yan Beisheng.
After the war, he was seriously injured and has been recuperating. In recent years, he has rarely been seen.
Shang Qingyu leaned over and said, "It should be the four of us."
The old man asked: "Then do you want to be the host?"
Shang Qingwan: "I don't want to."
The old man asked: "True?"
Shang Qing said: "Tired."
The old master nodded, looked at the other three great rites, and one of them said: "He is not tired, but I am even more tired."
The old man said: "People outside don't understand you because you are too lazy."
He said: "I will take Qing Yu to Yunzhou and give an explanation to those hundreds of children. The three of you should go out and do something. As for what to do, no matter how lazy you are, you should know what it is."
The three great ritual priests leaned over at the same time: "Disciple, I obey."
The disciples were all frightened. This incident was more frightening than the long list of heads brought back by the master.
In the thousands of years of history since Shangyang Palace, there has never been a precedent for four Dali priests to leave Fengyu Temple together.
Even when the Chao Xin Sect caused such trouble in Yunzhou and the imperial court had to dispatch troops to encircle and suppress it, Feng Yuguan only sent out a great ritual teacher.
What the four great rites masters left Fengyu Temple to do will never be revealed to the public.
But when the four great ethics teachers come back, the world will definitely become more honest, because the dishonest people will definitely be gone.
"I am lazy and you are lazy too, which is actually not good."
The old man said: "People outside think we are too lazy, so they bully us at our doorstep. They don't dare to make trouble with us old guys, so they have to bully my children in Shangyang Palace."
"The lives of children are more valuable than the lives of us old guys...so are every one of you."
The old man waved his hand: "Go and support the children. Hundreds of children have died aggrievedly. Today, I will go to the sun and demand an explanation from the entire world for them."
"yes!"
The four Dali Cuo priests responded at the same time.
Just half a month later, Yu Xintuan got the news.
So on the day after receiving the news, Yuxinguan announced something to the outside world.
From now on, Yu Xin Guan will dispatch all second and third generation disciples to return to the world.
Disciples of Yu Xin Guan, who have not been around for too many years, want to work with Shangyang Palace to investigate the case of Tian Shui Ya.
Everyone involved in this case is a mortal enemy of Yu Xin Guan.
A few days later, Xisheng Temple, which was much more low-key than Yu Xintuan, also announced something to the public.
Because Xisheng Temple has recently sensed that the world is too hostile, it will send ten people to walk around the world to promote Buddhism and save people with compassion.
Unlike Yuxinguan, which sent hundreds of disciples, Xisheng Temple only sent ten people.
But people in the world have not forgotten that there are only ten great monks in the Discipline Hall of Xisheng Temple who can practice the Wrath of Vajra.
Are these ten great monks walking around the world really there to be compassionate and save people?
Saving people may be truly saving people. If you are compassionate but not compassionate, then no one will be able to see it.
Geling City.
Aunt Yue, the great priest of Daxue Mountain Tianjianting, who had just arrived at Geling, changed her face after hearing the news.
"Send someone back, send someone back immediately."
Aunt Yue's voice became hoarse unconsciously, and when she spoke, her temples seemed to be beating.
"Please investigate carefully, the master of the pavilion, whether the incident at Tianshui Cliff is related to our disciples. If so, please order the master of the pavilion to clean up the people immediately. There must be no reason to be caught by the people of Shangyang Palace."
She was really panicked this time.
If the old master leaves Geling in person, he can go to Yunzhou, or of course he can go to Daxue Mountain.
Xin Yanque has already disgraced Tianjianting. If this matter is really related to Tianjianting, the old master will definitely not just let the Snow Mountain avalanche once.
No matter how proud the people of Tianjianting are, they still know that Jiang
Whose lake is it?
After she finished her instructions, she immediately shook her head: "No need, I'll go back in person."
She just came.
Xin Yanqi took a trip to the Snowy Mountains. Although he completely disgraced the pavilion owner, he still invited the pavilion owner to watch the ceremony at Geling during the Double Ninth Festival next year.
Therefore, as the most trusted person of the pavilion master, she came to Geling in advance to make preparations, and also wanted to inquire about the news about the various forces in Geling City in advance.
Now she couldn't sit still.
"Prepare the car, I'm leaving now."
After she finished speaking, her men were all stunned.
"Aunt Yue, we just arrived today..."
"Did you not hear me clearly?"
Aunt Yue's face turned cold: "Do you need me to say it again?"
The men were so frightened that their hearts trembled. Anyone who dared to say anything else immediately ran out to prepare.
The cart has not yet finished unloading the things it is pulling, and it is about to leave.
At the same time, thirty miles outside Geling City, there was Shiqiao Villa.
This is the Wang family's property, and it's not a secret property, it's just open to the public.
Everyone in the south of the Yangtze River knew that the head of the Wang family lived in Shiqiao Villa and lived a life like a wandering cloud and a wild crane.
People in Jiangnan also know that although few people from the Wang family are officials in the court, many people who are officials in the court are from the Wang family, even if their surname is not Wang.
Some people were originally named Wang, but because they wanted to be officials, they couldn't change their surname to Wang. Some people wanted to be named Wang because they became officials.
Therefore, people here in Jiangnan would call him the patron king in private.
I don’t know how many of the civil and military officials in Dayu’s court relied on the support of the Mountain King to be able to sit firmly in the court.
According to the promise made by the Wang family to the royal Xie family, the Wang family would not allow any of their descendants to join the officialdom if necessary.
But the Wang family has many ways to let people from the Wang family and people who want to be members of the Wang family serve as officials.
If a person wants to be an official in the court, what kind of official he should be, which yamen he should be an official in, and how big an official he should be, may not be counted according to the officials, but it must be decided by the patron king.
In the backyard of Stone Bridge Villa, the head of the Wang family, who was known as the Patron King, couldn't help but change his color slightly in such a state of mind when his subordinates finished reporting the news.
"Master."
The subordinate said cautiously: "Not only the people arranged by the family outside Shangyang Palace were killed by Old Master, but also the people arranged by other families outside Shangyang Palace. Old Master personally killed hundreds of people."
Hundreds of people, think about it, there are no mediocre people sent to keep an eye on Shangyang Palace?
Wang Luoshen asked: "How long did it take the old man to kill hundreds of people?"
The subordinate replied: "It is said that there is less than a cup of tea."
One of the two practitioners at the peak of the Wuyue Realm is from the Wang family.
"Lin'er and Shan'er are really reckless this time."
Wang Luoshen muttered to himself.
"Send someone to the north, find them two no matter what, and bring them back."
Wang Luoshen closed his eyes.
Even if the Wang family lost a practitioner at the peak of the Martial Arts Realm, it was enough to make him feel heartbroken.
"If the two of them disobey, there is no need to discuss with them, just capture them."
"yes."
The men responded, turned around and ran out.
"You two..."
Wang Luoshen said to himself: "I trust you too much and think you can stand alone, but you are also too conceited. The Wang family has not provoked Shangyang Palace for so many years. You really think that the Wang family has always been inferior to you." ?」
With a snap, the fishing rod broke in his hand.
"stupid!"
