"Senior, I don't know. Master, he said a few years ago that the three-eyed stone doll is too vicious, and it becomes more and more violent every day. It seems that even he can't restrain him anymore, so from him It won’t be passed down anymore from now on.”
The young Taoist priest in black seemed to have forgotten the blade on his neck. He shook his head and said softly: "Master also said that in the future, Changqing Temple will be just an ordinary Taoist temple without the stone dolls, and the inheritance of some martial arts will not be worth mentioning. The juniors don’t need to stick to any sectarian opinions, you can go out and look for opportunities on your own. If not, the juniors won’t have to mess with the White Immortal Sect’s promotion to immortality.”
Qi Jingzhi saw that this guy was speaking with emotion, and was afraid that he would wipe his neck accidentally, so he immediately put Qi Huchan away and took two steps to the side.
The Taoist priest's clothes were stained with blood, but he didn't seem to notice it. He continued: "A month ago, the master suddenly summoned all the people and handed the finger tiger to me in public. He said that a disaster was coming and asked me to lead everyone immediately. Go down the mountain and choose a place to build Changqing Temple, and you will never return to Daishan again in this life!"
Hearing this, Old Wei couldn't help but sigh a little: "Then...how did your master get there?"
"Master always kept his word in the temple and never allowed his disciples to disobey. Now that he gave the order, even if everyone was unwilling, they did not dare to disobey. They simply packed up and went down the mountain without stopping. We just When we reached the foot of the mountain, the peak where Changqing Temple is located collapsed!"
Speaking of this, the Taoist priest's voice was obviously choked with sobs: "Master, he was a hero, but I didn't expect that in the end there would be no bones left!"
After the words fell, everyone on Yuji Ridge and in front of the mountain temple fell silent for a moment. Even members of the Jin Dynasty shut their mouths in a very alert manner.
At some point, the wind on the top of the mountain suddenly picked up.
The sun in the sky has turned to the west, and dark blue dusk clouds have piled up layer after layer, and it seems that Xu Shi is approaching.
Old Wei was silent for a long time, then suddenly threw the finger tiger towards the Taoist priest and spoke again: "Daishan Changqing Temple is your master's lifelong effort. Since you have taken the finger tiger, if you intend to rebuild the Taoist temple in the future, no matter what difficulties you encounter, , you can come to Liaozhou to find me."
He paused, watching the young Taoist priest in black carefully put away his finger, and his tone suddenly turned cold: "If you don't have this intention and just want to find another job, I, Old Wei, don't know who you are!"
The Taoist priest who never announced his name suddenly laughed, punched his heart with his fist, and said in a deep voice: "Master said that I have been a cold-hearted person since I was a child, but I ask myself, I still have a bit of human heart here. !」
"However, after Master left, everyone was afraid that his former enemies would come to visit, so they immediately dispersed. This finger-tiger alone cannot rebuild Changqing Temple!"
Hearing this, Old Wei's eyes suddenly froze: "Are you still thinking about that stone doll?"
"Without the three-eyed stone doll, even if we build a Taoist temple in another place, would it still be considered the Changqing Temple?"
The young Taoist priest in black said categorically: "In the future, I will definitely go back to Daishan to retrieve Master's relics!"
"There is still some ambition!"
Old Wei praised, but shook his head, obviously not optimistic about it: "That stone doll is not easy to deal with. Now that it is out of control, the original site of Changqing Temple and even the entire Daishan Mountain may have turned into a dangerous place. Do you want to Think it through!"
The light in the Taoist priest's eyes dimmed slightly. He turned to look at Qi Jingzhi and asked with a reluctant tone: "This superior, is the White Immortal Sect's ascension to immortality really just a scam set by the cult bandits?"
"I didn't lie to you just now. Although those cases have not been verified yet, they are definitely related to the Saint of the White Immortal Sect. As for whether the so-called Immortal Ascension *** is a scam..."
Qi Jingzhi glanced at Member Jin and asked thoughtfully: "This is not the first time for you to attend the meeting. What happened to those who were selected as disciples in previous years?"
Hearing this, the young Taoist priest in black and the fat man looked at each other and shook their heads.
Jin Yuan said nonchalantly: "The people participating in the meeting don't know each other, they won't reveal their personal details at will, and most of them won't interact with each other in private after the meeting. As for those who were selected, they all went on stage on the spot and followed the White Fairy Empress. Go, no one knows what happened next.”
The Taoist priest also nodded and added: "Because I
In order not to leave Changqing Temple for too long, I specifically asked an immortal attendant the year before last. The immortal attendant saw that I only knew a few ordinary martial arts, and didn't even ask who my master was. He only said that if I was selected, I would have to serve in front of the empress for a few years, and only after I started practicing, would I be qualified to walk out. This request was not too much, so I didn’t think much about it. "
Qi Jingzhi nodded lightly after hearing this: "This is the proper meaning of the question, and there is nothing wrong with it. What is inside, you have to see it to believe it."
Seeing that his expression was fair, Officer Jin quickly came over with a flattering smile on his face: "Sir, since we haven't verified it yet, what you just said about the accomplice... Oh, and what you asked before The process of selecting an immortal is actually very simple, that is, everyone gathers together, prepares rituals, holds a feast, burns incense and prays, and waits for the Queen's decree to be issued."
"The chosen one ascends to the altar alone, supported by five-colored auspicious clouds, flies to the Immortal Platform, and performs the entrance ceremony to the empress. The unsuccessful ones congratulate in unison and then disperse to wait for the coming year."
Qi Jingzhi nodded and took notes. Seeing the pitiful appearance of the fat man, he immediately said angrily: "Have you calmed down yet? After you rest, get out of here and go home to live your rich life!"
Regardless of what he was thinking in his heart, Jin Yue agreed readily. He nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said: "What the superior said about robbing wealth and killing people, I heard what I said, and my heart is already clear." I’m afraid, how can I dare to stay longer?”
After saying that, he winked at his two guards.
Among them, the middle-aged guard was the most seasoned. When he saw this, he responded quickly and walked towards the mountain road from where he came: "The waiter will go down the mountain now! It's the same way as when we came. We men will take care of you one after another. Members, you can rest assured!"
Jin Yuanwai responded and bowed to everyone in front of the mountain temple, including Jiao Yulang.
Immediately, the fat man took three steps and two steps to the edge of the mountain road. Still facing the direction of the mountain temple, he grabbed a protruding rock in his hand and carefully stepped down with one foot first. After stepping firmly, the other foot came down. Then, using both hands and feet, they climbed down the mountain unsteadily.
The young guard who never said a word was the last, quickly put away the small mahogany horse, and followed closely.
Qi Jingzhi looked at the backs of the three people and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
This member of the Jin Dynasty is quite ambitious and has a strong financial position. If someone else asked him to quit, he might not be able to leave so simply. But when he showed his credentials, even if he was just a low-level police officer, It also represents the authority of the Demon Suppressing Academy and even the imperial court. The meaning is completely different, and the result is clear at a glance.
"Hmph! If you don't enjoy the wealth and happiness, why bother to suffer this kind of punishment!"
Old Wei sighed with emotion and glanced at the young Taoist priest in black: "Why are you still standing here like a wooden stake? If the path of cultivation is really so easy, will your master let you come out to find opportunities by yourself?"
The young Taoist priest in black frowned and said nothing, obviously dissatisfied.
Old Wei shook his head and added a few more words: "Even if it only has martial arts inheritance, Changqing Temple is definitely not comparable to ordinary Taoist temples. If you build another Taoist temple, you will have a good future. Your master must also agree with these words. You said you can let him go, what are you doing, you little brat? The old man said this, just take care of yourself!"
Perhaps after the master's death, no other teacher gave such heart-warming teachings. The young black-clothed Taoist priest was obviously moved. He bowed solemnly to Old Wei and went down the mountain without looking back.
"Hey! I'm not very capable, but I've learned a lot about the old bastard's bad temper!"
Old Wei looked away, his expression still a little melancholy, and his eyebrows were twisted together, making the wrinkles on his forehead seem a bit deeper.
Upon seeing this, Jiao Yulang immediately came over, looked up and down, and asked curiously: "Old Wei, where did you hide the red gold knife?"
The old man followed his gaze and immediately became angry: "Hey, where are you looking with such a sly look?"
