Qi Xuansu can drink. After all, the warrior's physique is here, so there is no problem in drinking poison. But Qi Xuansu doesn't like drinking. Sometimes when drinking, what you want is the word "drunk", to get drunk, let go of your body and mind, and only need a moment of anesthesia in exchange for a moment of peace. It is the martial arts body that succeeds and the martial arts body that fails. Other inheritances also have a subjective choice. Whether to resist the power of alcohol or not, the body is completely passive. He cannot get drunk even if he wants to.
So after drinking a few glasses, Qi Xuansu stopped raising the glass and focused on drinking porridge. Most of the remaining bottle was given to Zhang Yuelu.
Zhang Yuelu refused, and poured wine into the luminous cup in front of Qi Xuansu.
She poured the wine slowly while chanting, "The luminous cup of grape wine, if you want to drink, play the pipa immediately. Jun Mo Xiao, lying drunk on the battlefield, how many people have fought in ancient times. Did you ever lie drunk on the battlefield this time during the Southern Continent?"
Qi Xuansu picked up the wine glass, touched it with Zhang Yuelu's, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "How can I have such thoughts? The key is that without the right person, it would be boring to pour and drink by yourself."
Zhang Yuelu was very impressed and said, "I have heard a long time ago that Chief Qi has the 'three principles', which are not to have sex with women, not to drink alcohol, and not to accept any money."
Qi Xuansu smiled and said, "This is nothing. Chief Zhang is so powerful that he made me give up all three principles."
Zhang Yuelu was stunned for a moment, then picked up the empty wine glass and made a splashing motion towards Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu is not close to women, and he will definitely get close to Zhang Yuelu after they become a Taoist couple. Qi Xuansu doesn't drink at all outside, but he still has to drink Zhang Yuelu's wine. Qi Xuansu didn't take any money, and usually used Zhang Yuelu's peace money. .??.
Zhang Yuelu put down the empty wine glass in his hand: "You...by the way, have you prepared a gift for Qiniang? If you forget Qiniang, you will be in trouble."
Qi Xuansu said, "How dare you forget her? She wants to find me when she has nothing to do. If I really want to give her an excuse, she can keep talking about it until she ascends and dies. My father-in-law, mother-in-law, and Master Cihang, I have also prepared gifts. As for Lao Lin, Master Donghua, and Master Qingwei, forget it this time. They know that I am poor, so I think they will understand."
Zhang Yuelu glanced at him, "I feel like you are coaxing a child. Prepare gifts for whoever cries and makes trouble."
Qi Xuansu laughed, "What I said is true for Qiniang, Xiaoyin, and my mother-in-law. You, your father-in-law, and Master Cihang still understand the righteousness. I am completely dividing them based on their closeness."
Zhang Yuelu laughed, "Ignore Xiao Yin, my mother and your mother, I have to tell them this."
Qi Xuansu coughed suddenly and quickly changed the topic
"Speaking of Xiao Yin, what is going on in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace? Even Huangfu Liming, who is far away in the Southern Continent, has heard of your tyranny. Why did you give in this time?"
Zhang Yuelu frowned, "First of all, Xiao Yin is indeed not completely reasonable. He has a high priority to respect his teacher. There are mistakes even if he is right. Second, and the most important reason, anyone can see that there is something fishy in this. I really don’t want Xiao Yin to be involved in it. If anything happens, just do it to me, why bother involving others.”
Qi Xuansu stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Yuelu, "Qingxiao, you have a Machiavellian appearance and can be considered capable, but your heart is still soft. You will suffer a big loss if you do this."
Zhang Yuelu sighed and did not refute.
Qi Xuansu continued, "Do you still remember Xuan Sheng's favorite phrase?"
Zhang Yuelu said, "A man is determined to die. Let me try my hand to mend the cracks in the sky."
"Only with an iron heart can mend the cracks in the sky." Qi Xuansu said, "The path you are going to take is far more difficult than my path. Who are I dealing with? Westerners, Nanyang people, Japanese people. Then What's not to be cruel about? The appearance is different, the language is different, the thoughts are different, and they are not my race, so I feel at ease. This kind of external enemy can't do anything to my family, and they can't touch my weaknesses."
"But what about you? What you have to deal with is your own people. For example, if it involves the Zhang family, or the elders who took care of you when you were young, will you move? If you don't move, you will not worry about the scarcity but the inequality. Those who have been The people whose interests you have harmed will definitely make a fuss and ask why? If the reform becomes the exclusion of dissidents and loses the blessing of morality, what can you do to continue to promote it?
This matter? All previous efforts were wasted. If you act, you have preserved your moral integrity, but people close to you want to poke your spine, saying that you are cold-blooded and ruthless, and you are not a human being. Even if I approve of you, I have to add that I will definitely not be friends with someone like you. Left alone. "
"These are still minor. We have said that we are our own people, that is, I am among you, and you are among me. Your weaknesses are undefended and can be easily manipulated. Destroying people's wealth is like killing your parents. How can you still count on these people? What rules and morals should I tell you? Today they can take advantage of Xiao Yin, and tomorrow they can take advantage of your parents if they are in a hurry. Don't tell me that the Zhang family is protecting them. What if the person who takes action comes from within the Zhang family?"
Zhang Yuelu was speechless.
Of course she understood this truth, but she had underestimated some situations.
Qi Xuansu continued
"I say this not to advise you to give up, but to tell you that if you want to realize your ideals, even if you become a great master, you must be mentally prepared to be broken halfway, or even * **, get a reputation behind you, and then nothing changes. Of course, no matter what you choose, I will support you."
Zhang Yuelu snorted, "Stop coaxing me. You can only choose one of two: starting a war with the outside world or reforming the country at home. You want to go your own way, how can you support me?"
Qi Xuansu said, "Okay, let me put it another way, we can make a bet."
"What are you betting on?" Zhang Yuelu asked.
Qi Xuansu said, "It depends on who of us can be the great master. If I become the great master, you will listen to me. Whatever I say, you will do what you do. In the same way, if you become the great master, I will listen to you." Yes, whatever you say, I will do. I will be the pioneer for you. It won’t be a big deal if the two of us are broken together.”
Zhang Yuelu clicked his tongue, "Master, please stay far away, right?"
Qi Xuansu said, "It's not that I'm arrogant, but that's the reality. It's natural for the thirty-year-old Shangsantang chief and the less than forty-year-old Shenzhi Zhenren to compete for the top master. Could it be that someone would jump out and look down on me now?" Don’t there still be people who think that I am wasting my time? Even if I say that I am not qualified to compete for the Grand Master, others will not believe it. To put it bluntly, some people will think that I am the default Eighth Generation Grand Master. "
Zhang Yuelu had to admit that Qi Xuansu's words were very reasonable, leaving aside the fact that he had been appointed as the eighth-generation master. There was no point in deceiving himself and others now.
Zhang Yuelu asked, "What if Li Changge or Yao Pei wins?"
Qi Xuansu smiled, "There are only two ways to go, accept your fate or flip the table, it all depends on your choice. If you are going to accept your fate, then the two of us should not discuss the route. We should keep ourselves safe first before talking about anything else."
Zhang Yuelu pondered for a moment and said, "I will not give up my ideas, but if you become the Grand Master, I will abide by the rules of the Taoist sect and obey the Grand Master's orders."
Qi Xuansu nodded with satisfaction, "Then it's settled. Well, I'm almost done drinking. The future headmaster is going to sleep peacefully. I give you orders in advance..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Yuelu pointed to the door and interrupted, "Chief Qi's residence is in Mugong. Everything has been arranged in advance."
The wooden palace is the place where distinguished guests are accommodated. Jiang Dazhen also stayed here when he came to Borneo. The Fire Palace is where Qi Xuansu lived for two years. Of course, it now belongs to Zhang Yuelu.
In a sense, the two of them really slept in the same bed.
The only one who was not affected was Xiao Yin. When Qi Xuansu was the chief, she lived in the Fire Palace. When Zhang Yuelu was the chief, she still lived in the Fire Palace. This place felt like home.
Qi Xuansu looked around at the familiar furnishings and sighed, "A few months ago, the Fire Palace was still my residence. Unexpectedly, just a few months later, this place has changed and there is no room for me anymore."
Zhang Yuelu waved his sleeves and said decisively, "I won't give it away."
Qi Xuansu had no choice but to leave the Fire Palace.
This quasi-taoist is like a quasi-one-kalpa immortal, one step away is a world of difference.
When Qi Xuansu came to the wooden palace, he happened to meet Huangfuji who was taking a walk in the wooden palace.
Qi Xuansu exchanged a few pleasantries as usual and asked how the visit was this afternoon.
Huangfu knew very well that Qi Xuansu was going
Seeing Zhang Yuelu, he couldn't help but feel a little curious, "Everything is fine here of course. Master Yao personally accompanied him and saw the port trade, and he was very inspired. But Brother Qi, is there anything wrong with you coming here so late?"
"What's that?" Qi Xuansu and Huangfuji were already familiar with each other, so they spoke more casually, "Where else could I go if I didn't come to Mugong?"
Huangfu Ji said matter-of-factly, "Brother Qi Dao has been separated from his younger siblings for many days. They all say that a long separation is better than a new marriage. Why doesn't Brother Qi Dao go to his younger siblings?"
In Huangfuji's view, Qi Xuansu even had a child, so he had naturally become a Taoist couple with Zhang Yuelu.
Any other member of the mission would not have made such a joke. They had already done their homework, especially in terms of interpersonal relationships. However, Huangfu Ji was an exception. Not long ago, he was only thinking about how the battle was going in Monclova, and he had no time to do his homework. Moreover, because Huangfu Ji was on good terms with Qi Xuansu, he thought he was very familiar with Qi Xuansu and didn't need to do any homework at all. No matter how well you understand Qi Xuansu, can you still have Qi Xuansu understand yourself?
Naturally, others didn't dare to say anything, so it just made a joke.
Qi Xuansu didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Huangfu said clearly, "I understand, Brother Qi was kicked out by his younger siblings. It's a common thing. Women are used to doing this. If they don't get what they want, they won't let them in. So the study is used to deal with this situation." .”
Qi Xuansu said, "It seems that Brother Huangfu is very experienced."
Huangfu Ji waved his hand and said, "It's not about experience. After all, in response to the call of the Taoist sect, everything is equal. We can no longer act like the husband is the wife's guide."
