Yuqin Mountains.
In autumn, the green mountains are no longer monotonous, as if they have been splashed with colorful paint, the forests are dyed, and the red and yellow leaves are falling, spreading all over the soil and streams.
Between the heaven and the earth, there are colorful places everywhere, suitable for autumn outings.
A Taoist soars into the clouds and rides on the mist, hiding in the mist of the mountains, criss-crossing the mountains and hills, with a panoramic view of the great mountains and rivers.
This person is none other than Taoist Master Xu Ping.
However, Taoist Master Xu Ping was not a romantic man, and he was not in such a good mood to rush from the Taoist Temple to the Yuqin Mountains to enjoy the autumn.
He was extremely goal-oriented and headed straight for a place in the Yuqin Mountains.
In an unremarkable mountain ridge, Yun Dou slowly stopped.
A sound transmission talisman was shot out of the cloud and flew into the air when it met the barrier.
There was a flash of golden light, and the magic talisman disappeared.
Not long after, the barrier "rippled" with waves, and two young Taoists with a slight scent of powder on their bodies walked out of the barrier and respectfully handed over to Taoist Master Xu Ping:
"I've met Master Xu!"
During the salute and greetings, the two young Taoists cast spells one after another to remove the restrictions and lead the way. The two parties were very familiar with each other.
Taoist Master Xu Ping nodded slightly and drove Yun Dou into the barrier without saying a word.
Once entering the barrier, the world changes drastically.
From the outside, it looks like an ordinary hilly grassland, but after entering the barrier, it is a completely different world.
Spreads of spiritual fields and medicine gardens, well-proportioned houses, magnificent palaces and temples, alchemy rooms, weapon refining rooms, animal pens...cave houses looming in the mountain cliffs...this desolate mountain and old forest. There is a small sect hidden among them.
"Is your master at home?"
Taoist Xu Ping asked casually.
"Uncle Xu, our master has not gone out today. He is currently practicing in seclusion in the cave..."
"Then I will wait outside the cave for a while. You can go about your business if you have something to do. Don't worry about me."
"Yes, Master Xu!"
After sending away the two young Taoists, Xu Ping went straight to a cave in the mountains. He sat down in the guest pavilion outside the cave and waited silently.
About an hour later, a divine message came from the cave.
The cave door slowly opened.
Taoist Xu Ping took advantage of the ground to step forward and entered the cave in a flash. After passing through several corridors and several doors, he came to a luxurious hall.
"Disciple, why are you free to come to Master today?"
Taoist Fu Hua sat upright in his seat, looking at the apprentice who was arriving in such a hurry. He was curious. Normally, this apprentice would not come over on his own initiative.
"But something happened? Tell me, as long as it is within my ability, I will handle it for you."
After Taoist Fu Hua finished speaking, his face was filled with a kind smile.
This was only Xu Ping. Other disciples bothered him again and again, but he had already slapped them away.
He has raised his apprentice Xu Ping since he was a child. It is better to say that he is a master and apprentice than a father and son.
Back then, the old and new Lingshan sects separated, leaving his young apprentice to shoulder an unbearable burden. He still feels guilty towards his apprentice Xu Ping.
Previously, his apprentice was far away in Qingzhou, but now he came to the Yuqin Mountains in Yunzhou. Under his eyes, he couldn't help but want to take care of him more and make up for his past debts.
Seeing the kind smile on Master's face, Taoist Master Xu Ping softened his serious expression and said:
"Master, I really have something to trouble you. My disciple has reached the Great Perfection of the fifth level of Taoism, and I can't give you any guidance."….
"What! So fast? How did he practice?"
Taoist Fuhua was shocked when he heard Xu Ping's words.
He met his disciple Sun Chuchen three years ago.
At that time, although Chu Chen had good Taoist and magical powers, he had just entered the fifth level of Taoism and his cultivation level was a bit lacking.
However, the growth of his disciple in recent years has far exceeded his expectations.
First, he laid out eight formations two years ago and used his own strength to fight against the powerful five-level monsters who were several times his own. He became famous and ranked among the top five-level powerhouses. Then he used his troops to fight against them.
The magical power of the family combined with the Crown Prince of Dragon Palace to kill the fifth-grade super-grade divine beast. Another half year passed, and the fifth-grade Taoist kung fu was perfected...
Chu Chen's growth rate is simply breathtaking.
In three or four years, if others can break through two or three small realms, it would be considered very good. However, his disciple Chuchen has perfected the fifth level Taoist Kung Fu...
For a moment, Taoist Fu Hua had a strange look on his face, and he couldn't help but ask:
"Disciple, Taoist cultivation cannot be improved by having more opportunities. It is useless to eat too many treasures of heaven and earth. Did you really not teach your apprentice to practice [Growing Golden Lotus in Fire]? The speed of this practice is too fast... "
Taoist Xu Ping: "..."
After a long while, Taoist Xu Ping said angrily:
"How could I possibly teach him all these messy techniques? They were all cultivated by my disciples through hard work. They never practiced in combat."
"Chen'er has not only achieved the Great Perfection of the fifth level of Taoism, but has also opened up the secret treasure of the physical body and enlightened the [Leg Yuanjun]. Tomorrow, he will be officially transferred to the Department of Ghosts and Gods of Yuqin County as the governor, taking charge of the affairs of demons, ghosts and gods."
Speaking of this, Taoist Xu Ping was a little excited:
"Master, Chen'er is the first disciple of our Lingshan sect to serve as the governor of Bianhuang County and enjoy the treatment of the fourth rank. In the future, he will probably be able to enter the center of the Immortal Court. By then, our Lingshan sect will also be upright and upright. Guangming ranks among the great immortal sects of Xuanmen!"
Taoist Fu Hua was startled when he heard this.
The Laolingshan Sect has no shortage of people with profound Taoism. From the fifth level of Taoism to the realm of great supernatural powers, it has been inherited in an orderly manner through the generations without any major gaps.
However, no one from the Lingshan Sect has ever entered the Immortal Court and held a prominent immortal position.
It's not that they don't have the ability, but that the Lingshan Sect is self-aware. The higher the position in the Immortal Court, the easier it is for people to spot the Lingshan Sect's irregular ways. Therefore, even if the old Lingshan Sect disciples join the Immortal Court to serve, the highest level is to be honest. The deputy position of the fifth grade.
The governor of the county capital, and also the governor of the county capital of Borderland County, is an important position with real power. Its level of acceptance by the Immortal Court is comparable to that of the fourth rank. The Lao Lingshan Sect has never touched this level of immortal position.
But now, after the complete handover between the old and new Lingshan sect, in just twenty or thirty years, the new Lingshan sect has achieved it.
Just like Xu Ping said.
As long as Chu Chen steps into the realm of great supernatural powers, the Lingshan sect has the inheritance of the Guigu lineage and has a profound foundation of immortal skills and magic. He can immediately get rid of the label of "small sect" and initially join the ranks of the big sects.
For a moment, Taoist Fu Hua was both happy and a little lonely. His mood was so complicated that it was difficult to describe it in words.
Xu Ping knew his master's complicated state of mind, but ignored it and continued:
"Master, didn't you just ask why your disciple practiced so fast? The reason is actually very simple. Chen'er also practices dual cultivation methods!"...
Taoist Fu Hua was still very emotional at first, but when he heard the "Double Cultivation" method, he suddenly came back to his senses, opened his eyes wide and stared at Xu Ping angrily, and said angrily:
"You bastard, are you kidding me? You said you didn't teach him [Growing Golden Lotus in Fire]!"
Taoist Xu Ping's expression remained unchanged as he explained:
"The method of dual cultivation that my disciple practices is not the method of Huang and Chi, but the method of real people and ghost scenes. It does not have the slightest trace of evil and defilement. It is the superior immortal method of the immortal family according to the Eight Classics!"
"It's actually a real puppet scene!"
Taoist Fu Hua suddenly realized that he had a good vision, and he naturally knew about the dual cultivation of chance and scenery, and he understood it quite well. Soon his face was full of surprise:
"My master and your masters of all generations have been searching hard for the method of double cultivation by chance, trying to learn from it the best methods to improve the cultivation method. Unfortunately, we have not been able to do so. I never expected that your disciple's immortal connection is so deep!"
Xu Ping nodded slightly, nodded and said:
"Master, my disciple immediately taught me the method of dual cultivation of occasional scenes. It's a pity that this is the true method of immortality, which pays attention to a predestined method. My disciple is ashamed and has not been able to understand the method."
"Haha~ It's normal that you can't comprehend it."
Taoist Fu Hua pursed his lips and shook his head:
"You don't even have a partner you like, and you don't know the magic of yin and yang. How can you understand the Immortal Dharma of Oujing? What a wishful thinking, little Xu Ping, if you don't practice "Golden Lotus Planted in the Fire"
】No problem, but yin and yang cannot be separated. Women must look for it, otherwise it will go against the path of immortality. "
[Break Yin and Yang] is the secret language in the room, which refers to the severing of the relationship between men and women.
In Fangzhongshu, [Absolute Yin and Yang] is harmful, does not conform to the natural way of heaven and earth, and is not conducive to immortality.
"Disciple knows."
Elder Xu Pingdao, an old bachelor, blushed and quickly changed the topic:
"Master, are you still interested in the Double Cultivation Method? Although the Lingshan School method can also produce golden elixirs, after all, it taints the path and cannot be promoted..."
"I am naturally interested in it as a teacher. Real people and ghost scenes are the most superior dual cultivation methods. If I can understand one or two of the Hidden Books of the Great Dao, it will be of unimaginable benefit to me. Perhaps, as a teacher, I may be able to break through to the third level and live forever. Hopefully!"
Taoist Fu Hua suddenly became interested:
"This is your disciple's opportunity. Is he willing to pass on the inheritance to Lingshan Sect?"
Xu Ping nodded: "Not bad."
Taoist Fu Hua showed a look of relief on his face: "You have really gained a good disciple. Our Lingshan Sect's founder will bless you!"
Taoist priest Xu Ping was deeply convinced and took out two Taoist scriptures and presented them to him, saying:
"Master, this is a Taoist scripture that records the secret method of odd scenes. See if you can understand it. If you are confused, you can ask Chen'er a few questions..."
After a conversation between master and apprentice, Taoist Master Xu Ping left in a hurry.
Taoist Fuhua did not give it away, but held the Taoist scriptures quite excitedly, as if he had found a treasure.
In addition to excitement and joy, a complex look flashed across Taoist Fu Hua's face.
It is natural for the master to give guidance to his disciples, but the disciple does not want to have too many interactions between the old and new Lingshan sect, so he offers a big gift backhand, as if making a business deal, behaves politely, and always keeps a certain distance. ..
"You brat, you've become more thoughtful."
------------------
Department of Ghosts and Gods of Yuqin County.
Early this morning, the Du Guan compound seemed very lively. ….
The announcement of an official document made the Yuqin County Ghosts and Gods Department excited.
The governor of Yuqin County changed hands.
Qing Fengdao, the former commander of the county, got a chance to make a breakthrough and resigned from Xianting. Xianting urgently appointed Chu Chen, the new governor of the county, to take office...
In the morning, all the deans and vice-deans of the four courtyards of Tiandi Xuanhuang returned to the County Ghosts and Gods Division as long as they had no urgent errands.
Even the high-ranking immortal officials in charge of major cities and cities in Guanzhen, as well as ghosts and gods from all over the world, took the form of "incense cloud incarnations" and participated in the morning Duguan meeting to pay homage to the new Duguan who took office.
In recent years, Chuchen Yunzhou and even the eight southwest states have gained quite a reputation.
Whether it is "preaching and preaching" or "Tao Dharma and supernatural powers", his past performance is remarkable and worthy of belief.
Therefore, Chu Chen's appointment did not cause any criticism in Yuqin County's Department of Ghosts and Gods. On that day, he successfully replaced Taoist Master Qingfeng and became the new governor of Yuqin County, taking charge of the affairs of ghosts, ghosts and gods in the county.
Of course, if anyone has "criticism", it is undoubtedly Qian Sangua, the deputy director of the Yuqin County Ghost and God Division.
In charge of the study room of the courtyard, Chu Chen smiled and led Qian Sangua to sit down in the hall, smiling and saying:
"What's wrong, fellow Daoist Sangua, you don't recognize me?"
Qian Sangua was sighing in his heart, but his face was full of smiles: "I still can't believe it now. Back then, we served as counselors of the county capital together. I never expected that a few years later, I would only be the deputy dean of the sixth grade. , you are already in charge of the real county capital."
Chu Chen waved his hands, pretending to be displeased: "Don't be polite in private. Just call me how you used to be called now. Don't get into any disagreements."
Qian Sangua smiled, feeling quite comfortable in his heart: "Chu... Fellow Taoist Chu, I have calculated a long time ago that you are a hidden dragon, and sooner or later you will soar into the sky. When I looked back, I saw that I had not misjudged you."
Chu Chen smiled: "Friend of the Three Trigrams, it seems that my life is very tough."
Qian Sangua was stunned, and immediately understood that Chu Chen was talking about him. The three hexagrams were divinely divined every day, and the rest were divination.
The good hexagram turned bad, and the bad hexagram changed to worse. He immediately smiled sheepishly:
"Those who have been apart for three days should treat each other with admiration. Fellow Taoist Chu, please don't try to taint my innocence..."
"Hahahaha~"
Perhaps it was because of the "black hexagram joke" that Chu Chen and Qian Sangua suddenly seemed to have returned to the days when they were fighting demons and slaying demons in Guangping, Qingzhou. The conversation became quite harmonious, and the differences between their Taoist practices, cultivation, and skills that they had not seen for many years were eliminated. Due to the sense of distance brought about by status and identity, the two had a great conversation.
As the saying goes, things are easier to do when you have acquaintances.
Chu Chen had just arrived and didn't know much about the Ghosts and Gods Division of Yuqin County. Thanks to Qian Sangua.
From the conversation with Qian Sangua, Chu Chen got a rough idea of the situation at the top and bottom of Yuqin County's Ghost and God Department. He learned about the big and small situations, and gained a lot, which was of great help to him when he took office as the county capital.
In addition, Chu Chen also learned an important piece of news from Qian Sangua.
The governor of Yuqin County's surname is Wang and his given name is Xi.
This Wang Xi, the governor of Yuqin County, is none other than Wang Ping's father. He is a Confucian monk with a fifth-grade super-level cultivation. He has half a foot in the realm of great supernatural powers and possesses powerful supernatural powers.
"No wonder Wang Ping didn't come to Yuqin County with you six months ago, but went to Wanquan County. I really thought he went to Wanquan County to find me. I never expected that he was hiding from his father... "
Chu Chen shook his head repeatedly.
Qian Sangua smiled, and just as he was about to say something, a clerk came hurriedly outside the study room holding a telegraph talisman and an invitation.
Chu Chen stretched out his hand to take a photo, and the transmission notes and invitations flew through the air.
When his consciousness swept away, Chu Chen, who had a faint smile on his face, was slightly surprised.
The transmission talisman and invitation were sent by Wang Ping's father, Wang Xi, the governor of Yuqin County.
First, congratulate him on his promotion to Yuqin County Governor, and secondly, invite him to visit.
Chu Chen was not surprised that the governor Wang Xi congratulated and hosted a banquet. However, what surprised him was that Wang Ping's father actually said that he came at the right time and caught up with the good opportunity of the Yuqin Mountains.
"Fellow Taoist Sangua, what are the good opportunities in the Yuqin Mountains?"
Chu Chen couldn't help but ask.
Qian Sangua was confused and shook his head repeatedly: "This is embarrassing for me. I am only the deputy dean of the sixth grade."
Chu Chen nodded slightly and did not embarrass the three hexagrams.
In fact, even without Wang Ping's relationship, he still had a meeting with Yuqin County Sheriff today.
"Let's go, San Gua, accompany me to meet Uncle Wang."
Immediately, without delay, Chu Chen got up and went to meet Wang Ping's father, Wang Xi. .
