Pawn Crossing the River

Since Xiao Yin needs to digest it, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu can't just stay here. After all, both of them are very busy. They both took leave to send the child back to their hometown. So after entrusting Xiao Yin to the child's grandfather, the two left the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven first.

Mr. Yin estimated that Xiao Yin would be able to recover in one month at the fastest and half a year at the slowest.

Before leaving, Qi Xuansu specifically reminded that he must wait for someone to pick him up. Qi Xuansu, Zhang Yuelu, Qiniang, and Lin Yuanmiao would be fine. Anyway, Xiao Yin couldn't be left alone. God knows how crazy this ghost girl would go.

Old Mr. Yin agreed at once, so Qi Xuansu could rest assured.

In fact, Qi Xuansu also had selfish motives. The old couple knew that since they had a child, the space for them to be alone would be rapidly reduced. That's fine. Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were rarely together because of work. It was not easy for them to go home, and there was a naughty child.

This time was naturally a rare opportunity. The child was not around, and they could be alone.

But when they are really alone, they always feel that something is missing and they can't find the feeling of youth. Although they are not old, they have experienced a lot of things, and their mentality will inevitably feel a little vicissitudes, which is far beyond their actual age.

After leaving the ghost gate, the two went to Longmen Mansion. After all, this is the place Qi Xuansu is most familiar with. Wanxiang Dao Palace is here. After changing into casual clothes and strolling on the streets of Longmen Mansion, Qi Xuansu found that not only the feeling of the past can't be found, but also the feeling of studying can't be found. I don't know if it's because of my age, my mentality has changed, or the influence of the "Heart of the Immortal Stone".

Finally, they came to the shore of Xingye Lake and sat side by side on the observatory.

A light rain fell, not only was there a vast white mist on the lake, but everything seemed to be inlaid with a white edge.

Neither of them was shielded from the raindrops. Zhang Yuelu caught the raindrops with her hands: "Tianyuan, what are you thinking about?"

Qi Xuansu supported her knees with both hands: "I'm thinking about the first time I saw you."

Zhang Yuelu smiled: "Speaking of which, it should be considered that I took the initiative, right?"

Qi Xuansu thought for a while and said: "It was indeed you who took the initiative. If it was me who took the initiative, wouldn't I be scolded as a toad wanting to eat swan meat?"

Zhang Yuelu said: "This is a different time. Now people say that I have a keen eye for people and I fell in love with you at first sight. What are Zhang Yuelu's eyes like? How can she see that Qi Xuansu will have a great future in the future?"

Qi Xuansu sighed: "What is the difference between self-deprecation and self-knowledge? I My state of mind at that time can be described in four words: flattered, like a goddess from heaven suddenly descending upon my side. I won’t hide it from you. After we came out of the Phoenix Tower, I looked at you under the moon with a little bit of drunkenness. It was impossible not to be moved. I was thinking at that time, how great it would be if this was my Taoist partner. I even thought of a name for my child. "

Zhang Yuelu turned his head to look at Qi Xuansu and joked, "Aren’t you guilty? Let’s not talk about the backdoor into Tiangang Hall. Your background is quite complicated. "

Qi Xuansu murmured, "It’s like a dream. Who would have thought... who would have thought... that dreams could come true. "

Then Qi Xuansu’s voice became smaller and smaller, and his expression gradually became solemn.

Zhang Yuelu’s cultivation was slightly inferior. He was startled at first, and then followed Qi Xuansu’s gaze.

At some point, the mist on Xingyue Lake dissipated, and a moon slowly emerged from the water.

This moon was so big that it almost covered the entire lake.

Qi Xuansu stood up and whispered, "Zhang Wuhen."

Zhang Yuelu also stood up: "What is she doing here?"

Qi Xuansu said, "Zhang Wuhen escaped from the Xingyue Lake."

As soon as the voice fell, a figure slowly rose from the water and moon, covered with moonlight, and his figure was ethereal. It was Zhang Wuhen.

Qi Xuansu was naturally not afraid of Zhang Wuhen. Not to mention that this was Wanxiang Dao Palace, Qi Xuansu's territory. Even if it was not Wanxiang Dao Palace, Qi Xuansu still had a moon god, the god of Yinyue, He Luoshen.

Even without He Luoshen, Qi Xuansu could still join hands with Zhang Yuelu. When Qi Xuansu's cultivation was not yet complete, he often killed powerful enemies with Zhang Yuelu with this.

Take a step back, even if it was a one-on-one duel, Qi Xuansu had a great chance of defeating Zhang Wuhen.

In the final analysis, Qi Xuansu is no longer the Qi Xuansu of the past.

However, considering that Zhang Wuhen is the biological sister of the Heavenly Master, Qi Xuansu, the son-in-law of the Zhang family, still couldn't do anything too extreme: "Senior Zhang, we haven't seen each other for years since we parted at the Five Elements Mountain. I wonder what you are doing today?"

Zhang Wuhen didn't say anything, but glanced at Zhang Yuelu: "Zhang Yuelu, Zhang Wushou and Zi Guang Zhenjun are betting on you. It seems that they have made up their minds to let you take charge of the Zhang family."

Zhang Yuelu hesitated for a moment, probably because she didn't know how to address her appropriately. After all, Zhang Wuhen had been expelled from the Zhang family genealogy. She finally decided to follow Qi Xuansu's address: "Senior Zhang, I was also present when the Five Elements Mountain's 'calming monkey' was made. If I remember correctly, Senior Zhang has already joined the court, but I don't know what official position the court has given Senior Zhang?"

It's not that Zhang Yuelu is harsh, this is the attitude of the Zhang family towards Zhang Wuhen. The embezzlement and the seizure of the inheritance of Taiyin Zhenjun made the Zhang family very passive and almost put the Heavenly Master in a desperate situation. More importantly, Zhang Yuelu and Zhang Wuhen had never met before the Five Elements Mountain, and there was no relationship between them.

Zhang Wuhen said: "I am not interested in power, nor do I care about official positions. I want to live forever. I don't want to turn into dry bones after a hundred years."

Although they are descendants of immortals, unlike what people think, descendants of immortals do not show unparalleled talents. The son of Zi Guang Zhenjun basically left no trace in the history of Taoism, just married and had children normally. Among the three brothers and sisters of Tianshi, only Tianshi succeeded in becoming an immortal. Tianshi's brother died early, and it is reasonable that Tianshi's sister, Zhang Wuhen, has no hope of immortality in this life.

Qi Xuansu actually has some clues as to why this happened, because Zi Guang Zhenjun did not descend to the earth in his true body at that time. His true body can descend to Kunlun Cave Heaven, but cannot descend to the Great Zhenren Mansion. Therefore, the one who married and had children should not be Zi Guang Zhenjun himself, but Zi Guang Zhenjun's container clone.

The existence of containers varies from person to person and from immortal to immortal. It mainly focuses on the degree of fit with the immortal, not the aptitude and bones.

Not every container is called Qi Xuansu.

Zi Guang Zhenjun is unknown how old he is this year. He earned dozens of containers for nothing. How can there be Qi Xuansu?

Because it is a container, it can give birth to a child. Because it is a container, the bloodline is thin, and among the several descendants, only the Heavenly Master has truly come out.

In addition, the Taoist sect strictly guards against the descendants of the gods and immortals, and there are many suppressions. It is reasonable that Zhang Wuhen and others are not talented.

In this way, the Heavenly Master is about to ascend, and Zhang Wuhen, as the Heavenly Master's sister, will soon die.

Even if Zhang Wuhen successfully joins the immortals with the help of the legacy of Taiyin Zhenjun, he still faces a problem. The end of the law is coming, and the immortals are not sitting back and worrying.

All the ancient immortals, including He Luoshen, have sought a way out, because after the end of the law, the fall of the kingdom of God is inevitable. The immortals must prepare for the rainy day.

Zhang Wuhen also has to face this dilemma, how to transcend?

Relying on himself, that is absolutely impossible, there is no time and no ability.

Most of the incense and vows are monopolized by the sects.

The ancient immortals chose to join the Buddhist sect. Ziguang Zhenjun chose to rely on the Zhengyi Sect.

The internal fighting of the ancient gods in Tawanting is essentially because of insufficient resources, and some people must be eliminated.

Zhang Wuhen can't count on the Zhengyi sect, let alone the Taoist sect, so she can only choose to bet on the imperial court.

It is true that the imperial court is large and powerful, and the incense is strong, but there are also many Bodhisattvas who eat the incense, so they still have to distinguish between the distant and the close.

Why should I give it to you?

After thinking this through, Qi Xuansu was able to sort out his thoughts: "Senior Zhang, we don't need to beat around the bush, let's just say it straight. You came to see me alone, so you must have something to ask of me."

Zhang Wuhen did not deny it and said directly: "Help me ascend."

Qi Xuansu asked back: "Why? Just because of your pseudo-immortal cultivation? It's not that I'm arrogant. For me, pseudo-immortal is of course important, but not to this extent."

Zhang Wuhen was obviously prepared and said: "Qi Xuansu, don't you want to get rid of the control of the Earth Master?"

Qi Xuansu's expression suddenly became serious: "What the Heavenly Master and Zi Guang Zhenjun couldn't do, can you do it?"

Zhang Wuhen said: "There are some things that the two of them may not know."
