Shuangcui Peak is a small peak on the edge of the Purple Purple Palace. The mountain is not high, but it can be regarded as quiet and elegant.
The palace maid's dormitory was not next to Shuang Cui Peak, but was still a certain distance away. Su and Mei didn't know whether it was to cover up others' eyes or to give Bai Zhenzhen a better environment, so they buried her under Shuang Cui Peak.
When Xu Qian and Xiong Yanran arrived, hundreds of people had gathered under Shuangcui Peak. Not only were there a large number of workers rushing to repair, but all seventeen hall masters except Xiong Yanran were also present here.
Monks work very quickly and are very powerful. They don't need any modern machinery and equipment. The transportation, carving, and construction of stones are much faster using manpower. This is also an important reason why pure cultivating civilization disdains scientific and technological civilization. .
A stone tablet more than ten meters high has been erected, but it is empty without a single word.
Seeing Xu Qian and Xiong Yanran arriving, everyone stopped what they were doing and saluted.
"Master Xu, you were the Palace Master's best friend during his lifetime, and it was you who avenged her, so we are waiting for you to leave a message on her tombstone." The one who spoke was the Master of the Acupuncture Hall, who was the speaker among these people. The most substantial.
Xu Qian looked at the stone tablet solemnly, then suddenly jumped up, stretched out his fingers and carved a few large characters on the stone tablet - the tomb of Bai Zhenzhen, the thirty-seventh palace master of the Purple Qing Palace. Finally, at the bottom of the stone tablet, Written on it - friend Xu Qianli.
"Thank you, Master Xu, for the words!" Master Zhenyi took the lead in kowtowing his thanks. Not everyone understands that the Ziqing Palace is currently weak, and Xu Qian's engraving of his name is actually a form of support for the Ziqing Palace. It is equivalent to giving a kind of protection. If some blind force wants to take advantage of the Ziqing Palace in the future, they have to ask the great god Xu Qian if he agrees.
"Sister Bai was kind to me. I regretted not being able to rescue her in time when she was in trouble. Now I will do whatever I can for her." After saying this, a light suddenly flashed in Xu Qian's mind. .
yes! When Ronya was showing off her power, why didn't Bai Zhenzhen ask for help in the Book of the Resurrection? Could it be that she was afraid of injuring everyone?
Probably not. Xu Qian immediately overturned this assumption.
The Book of the Resurrection is for them, the Resurrectionaries, to keep in touch, communicate with each other, and help each other, making their special group stronger and more cohesive. If something happens to Bai Zhenzhen, it is still a matter of life and death for the sect. It is unlikely that she will not seek external help, and for this external force, these people in the Book of Resurrection are the best choices.
Calling for help through the Book of the Risen, the news spreads the fastest and is least likely to be detected. If Bai Zhenzhen did not take the initiative to give up this method at that time, and ended up not asking for help, the reason why all this happened has been revealed, that is, Ronya knew the existence of the Book of Resurrection and had the means to disable it. !
Thinking of this, Xu Qian suddenly felt a chill down his back. The Book of the Resurrection is his big secret. If Ronya really knows it, it means that the Covenant knows it. Hasn't his secret been exposed to everyone?
It's a pity that Ronya is dead, otherwise something could still be found during the interrogation. However, isn’t her soul still there? It's just that having his godhead taken away hurt him a lot. His memory is probably gone, so he can't ask anything.
At this moment, people from Ziqing Palace also noticed that Xu Qian was not in good condition. Xiong Yanran asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
"Oh... I'm fine... I just think of the past with Sister Bai and feel a little sad." No matter what thoughts he had, he had to settle the matter in front of him at this moment.
"Are all the senior officials in the Purple Qing Palace here?"
Upon hearing this, these hall masters all had a premonition of what Xu Qian was going to do.
The Jianyi Hall Master was the only hall master present who could be compared with the Zhenyi Hall Master in terms of status. She had been silent before. Now that Xu Qian mentioned the senior officials of the Purple Qing Palace, she naturally wanted to stand up and brush her face.
"If the previous hall master of the Purple Qing Palace abdicates due to old age or marriage, he will be supported as an elder until his death. Except for those elders, all the eighteen hall masters of the Purple Qing Palace are already here."
"Elders? There was an incident in the Purple Qing Palace that day. Where were these elders?" Xu Qian asked this not to blame anyone, but he also needed to know the specific situation.
Hall Master Zhenyi immediately replied: "According to the rules, marriage is prohibited for everyone in the Purple Qing Palace from top to bottom. If there is a marriage, the only choice is to withdraw from the Purple Palace. But if it is a marriage between the Hall Master and above, including the Palace Master, if there is a marriage, They can only relinquish their responsibilities in the palace and become elders. From then on, they are no longer allowed to interfere in any affairs in the palace. At best, they only retain a status that is somewhat related to the Ziqing Palace. If the Ziqing Palace is in trouble, this type of elder will You can help, or you can stay out of the matter, and have no obligation to the Purple Qing Palace. Such elders are no longer allowed to live in the Purple Qing Palace and must move away. As for the hall master or palace master who voluntarily abdicates due to old age, he can still live there In the palace, Ziqing Palace will also provide them with their living and cultivation needs, but they have no right to interfere with the affairs of Ziqing Palace, but they have the obligation to take action when necessary."
The Master of Zhenyi Pavilion paused and continued: "There are no elders living in our Ziqing Palace now, and the last one passed away last year. As for the elders living outside the palace, they have nothing to do with us. Let them It's just a few more prisoners."
Xu Qian nodded slightly, "Since all the core characters of the Purple Qing Palace are here, then I will do another important thing for Sister Bai." He raised his head and looked at the stone tablet, "The Purple Purple Palace cannot be left without an owner for a day. I want to come to Bai." Sister, there was no successor candidate left that day. If I let it go, I'm afraid you won't be able to solve this problem in a gentle way."
Xu Qian's words fell into the ears of these hall masters, and everyone had their own ideas. Hall Master Jianyi was the first to object, "Thank you, Master Xu, for your kindness, but it is our Ziqing Palace who elects the new palace master." It’s better not to bother Master Xu with your own affairs.”
Xu Qian glanced at the Jianyi Hall Master and said lightly: "I want to know now, who are the Hall Masters who actively sell themselves for glory?"
All the hall masters looked at Xu Qian. Only two of them behaved very differently from the others. One was the hall master Jianyi. This person's face was not very good-looking, and there was a lot of panic in his eyes. The other person was the leader of Zhenwu Hall. This person lowered his head and did not dare to look at Xu Qian at all. Others were either looking at Xu Qian, or looking at these two people.
"The answer is very clear!" Xu Qian snorted coldly, "You two are a disgrace to the Purple Qing Palace, and your punishment will be decided by the new palace master, but you two are not qualified to have any say in the selection of the new palace master. Opinion!"
"Joke!" Now that he had broken his face, the leader of Jianyi Hall also showed his true face, "Who do you think you are? It would be nice to call you Master Xu, but no one in Ziqing Palace knows, you are just a concubine raised by Bai Zhenzhen. Yes. Who are you qualified to point fingers at the affairs of our Ziqing Palace? Our Ziqing Palace has not recruited male disciples since its establishment. Fairy Ziqing also hates men the most. No matter what you have done for Ziqing Palace, as long as you are a man, you will not speak here. share!”
The leader of Jianyi Hall was so shocked that everyone present was stunned.
Who is this man in front of them? That was the man-devouring demon who was famous in the four realms and had killed two immortal envoys!
"Very good! I like courageous people like you!" Xu Qian did not argue and looked at Hall Master Zhenwu, who had remained silent, "What about you? Do you have anything to say?"
Hall Master Zhenwu looked quite weak, she defended in a low voice: "I just didn't want to die at that time, I had no intention of rebelling at all!"
Xu Qian smiled again and said, "I also like people like you who are frank." He ignored the harsh words of Master Jianyi at all and acted as if he hadn't heard anything. "I still have something to do, so I can't spend too much time here with you." . Hurry up and select the palace master! I nominate Xiong Yanran, you can also propose other candidates, and then we will vote. The voting range will be tentatively decided on you, the palace masters. Of course, they are two traitors. There is no right to vote or to be voted for.”
vote?
The palace masters of the Purple Qing Palace have always been appointed by the previous palace master, and they usually started training them a long time ago. Over the years, there have been situations where the previous palace master did not have a clear successor, but because the subsequent successor was so popular, he took over. There was never any such thing as voting.
