Taiping Inn

Li Xuandu and Zhang Jingxiu returned along the same route. Along the way, both of them remained silent, and Li Xuan was digesting many things he had just learned. The Seven Hermits of Confucianism were the seven people selected by the saint of Xinxue when they passed away. These seven people hid their original names, leaving only their surnames. Later, they simply gave up their surnames and used their own names instead. These seven people are not only mysterious in their identities, but they are also unpredictable, but there is no doubt that the seven people have great power in the Confucian sect, otherwise it would be impossible for them to take action repeatedly in the imperial palace without hurting themselves at all. Take Zen Master Hu for example. It seems that he is living in seclusion in Dabaoen Temple, but if Dabaoen Temple is his belonging, it seems that everything is right. It can be seen from the sight of the leopard.

Li Xuandu finally understood what Zhang Jingxiu and Bai Xiushang wanted to say but could not explain it clearly. In the end, the great master Zhang Jingxiu pierced half of the window paper, but it was only half of the window paper, which seemed to be transparent but not transparent, with light. After entering, he couldn't see the whole picture at a glance. If he wanted to break through the other half of the window paper, Li Xuan still had to meet his master Li Daoxu.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan remembered the person who helped Song Zheng go to the Jin tent. I don’t know which of the seven hermits was who could have a friendship with the Earth Master and Song Zheng at the same time. It seems that this person’s plan is also Not small.

When I was talking to Zen Master Hu just now, Li Xuan said that he was a frog in the well. It was not that Li Xuan was deliberately humble, but that he did feel this kind of emotion. Li Xuan once thought that he was standing on a high place. Even if he was not on the top of the mountain, he should be halfway up the mountain. But later he realized that he was actually standing at the foot of the mountain, like a frog in the well, and what he saw was just a piece above his head. sky. Just like the change in the imperial capital, Li Xuandu, as the person involved, thought he was an important and key figure, but later he discovered that the person who really decided the success or failure of this matter was already in the deep palace. Li Xuandu was originally wondering why the temple could suppress the world. It was not until he became the leader of a sect that he realized that the Confucian Sect, which was not visible on weekdays, was such a terrible behemoth. Even if the Confucian Sect is now weak, Not Li Xuandu can easily shake it alone.

After Li Xuandu achieved the cultivation level of the heavenly realm of creation, he truly jumped out of the well, saw how vast the world outside was, and knew how difficult the path he chose was.

However, Li Xuan did not regret it. The road was made by people. There was no road in this world. As more people walked, it became a road.

When Li Xuan straightened his thoughts and the two walked out of the stele forest, Zhang Jingxiu finally said, "The reason why I brought Zi Mansion to see Zen Master Hu today is to let Zi Mansion understand something, and It is difficult, and you must slowly conquer it. You must not ruin the plan for a long time because of a momentary impulse."

Li Xuan did not respond at all, nor did he object, but said, "Master, the seven people do not seem to be the same."

Zhang Jingxiu smiled faintly: "This is natural. Seven people are seven hearts. They cannot generalize. Which ones can be used as aid, which ones can be won over, and which ones must be killed. It is necessary to distinguish clearly and not to make any difference. error."

Li Xuandu said seriously, "Thank you for your teachings from Master Tian."

After leaving Talin, more and more monks came and went. Whether these monks were from Buddhism or Confucianism, they all bowed and convinced after seeing the Taoist leader, Datianshi, and were convinced. This was the accumulation of reputation for many years. In terms of fame, among the four immortals of immortality, Zhang Jingxiu is the well-deserved first person. Although these monks also saluted Li Xuandu, they were afraid of it more than respect. If Li Xuandu was still Li Xuandu in the sixth year of Tianbao, they would have been driven out of the temple by them. To give an appropriate example of carelessness, the monks’ respect for Zhang Jingxiu is “benevolence”, while the respect for Li Xuandu is “awe the power.”

Li Xuan didn't care, because it might be enough to be afraid of it, but it would take a long time to respect it.

Nympho

As the future sect leader of the Taiping Sect, Shen Changsheng is also qualified to enter the Dabaoen Temple. However, now he is not qualified to enter the hall and can only wander outside the hall without doing anything. He heard that the people from Xuannv Sect had arrived, but he was a little disappointed when he didn't see Shuning. However, this is reasonable. Shen Changsheng is just an exception. The future leader of Xuannv Sect is Yu Qingning. Even if he is coming, he should say that Yu Qingning is coming.

Shen Changsheng sighed softly, sat on a step, held his cheek with both hands, and stared at the willow tree not far away in a daze. Not long after, a little novice snatched up, bowed to Shen Changsheng, and asked softly, "What's the matter for the little monk to serve?"

Shen Changsheng came to his senses, was slightly stunned, then waved his hand to Xiao Shami, got up from the steps, and went somewhere else.

As the saying goes, when Li Xuandu and Shen Changsheng first met, Li Xuan was both a down-and-out visitor. Shen Changsheng was a young man, but now Li Xuandu is the leader of Taiping Sect and is respected by the world as " Mr. Qingping”, he is like a giant in the world. Of course, Shen Changsheng also changed his appearance. His skin, which had become slightly darker due to the wind and sun, has returned to its original color. After being taught various rules and etiquette, he was carefully tidied up and dressed up. He looked like a famous family, so Only the little novice monk is so enthusiastic. If it were Shen Changsheng in the past, he might have to interrogate the kid how he ran to Dabaoen Temple.

This time, the Great Master and Li Xuan met. What he planned was a big event, not a happy event such as getting married or getting promoted. Therefore, there were almost no juniors in the world. All the people who came were well-known in the world. At this time, they were distributed in groups of three or three, and they were all He was whispering in a low voice and his face was solemn, so Shen Changsheng naturally would not join in the fun.

Shen Changsheng wandered aimlessly in Dabaoen Temple. In the eyes of the monks in Dabaoen Temple, such a young young man must have a good identity when he came to Dabaoen Temple, so he naturally would not stop him.

Just when Li Xuandu and Master Da Tian went to visit Master Hu Zen, Shen Changsheng came to a dense forest, rich and sparsely populated. This is not surprising. Dabao'en Temple covers a vast area, not only with mountains and rivers, but also with a large number of plants and trees. The more you go back to the temple, the more you are.

At this moment, Shen Changsheng suddenly felt a cold air coming towards his back. He subconsciously used the "Eight Divine Powers" taught by Mrs. Lu. Taiping Sect is good at using external objects to fight enemies and is proficient in innate Eight Trigrams. , so there are eight magical powers derived, corresponding to the Eight Trigrams, namely: Gantian, Kundi, Zhenlei, Xunfeng, Kanshui, Lihuo, Genshan, and Duize. Shen Changsheng used the magical powers of the Xunfeng trigram at this time The "Xun Feng Jue" of the whole person rises with the wind, like a fallen leaf floating around, sometimes left and sometimes right, making people elusive. Although this method is not used to control the wind by the great master of the Heavenly Realm, and can only control the wind for a short time, it is much more sophisticated than ordinary light body techniques.

The person behind him said "huh" lightly, obviously not expecting that Shen Changsheng's reaction was so quick, and he couldn't help but feel a little determined to win. He pointed at Shen Changsheng's back, not trying to hurt others, but Control people. Before his fingers could reach his body, the cold air emitted by Shen Changsheng had already shocked him. He couldn't help but shout, "It's the 'ice finger'!" Shi Wuyue used this move to attack Zhong Wu, causing the Zhong Wu's half of his body condensed into ice and had to retreat.

Shen Changsheng did not dare to look back, and he did not dare to stop. He was windy at his feet and ran forward with his head in silence. The sound of flowing water came from the front. Shen Changsheng knew that it was the famous Perfume River. After crossing this river, outsiders could not step on it. The back temple is here.

At this moment, Shen Changsheng suddenly heard a woman shouting behind him, "Hey, where are you going?"

This voice made Shen Changsheng feel as if he was slapped by Zheng Yisect's "palm thunder". He trembled, stopped and slowly turned around.

Behind him was a girl with a hanging bun. Her skin was as snow as snow, her eyes were white and her teeth were still white. She was still beautiful. She was wearing a long white silk embroidered gold skirt and a long jade-embellished satin tied around her waist. After pulling a bow, the grown section fell down casually, with a pair of round-toed shoes on her feet, and the tip of the shoe was painted with white plum blossoms, which were elegant and noble.

The girl stood not far away with her hands on her back, attracting all the sight of Shen Changsheng and no one can see anything else.

Shen Changsheng's face turned red and his heart beat, and he stammered, "Shu, Shu Ning, it was you just now, why are you here?"

The corners of the girl's mouth were slightly raised, as if she was smiling and angry, "What, can't I be here? Look at how you looked just now, it seems like you had encountered a ghost. Do you think I am more scary than a ghost?"

"How could it be!" Shen Changsheng hurriedly said, "I, I don't know it's you."

Zhou Shuning looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "It is said that you should treat your scholars with admiration for three days. If you haven't seen each other for a while, you have changed your appearance and become Mr. Shen, but why did you stutter?"

"I'm just too excited." Shen Changsheng calmed down slightly and stopped stuttering, but his eyes lowered, staring at his shoes, not daring to look at the girl.

"Look at your stupidity." Zhou Shuning angrily said, "Are you here with your brother? Where are others?"

Shen Changsheng replied honestly: "The Sect Master is discussing affairs with the Great Heavenly Master, I am not qualified to listen."

Zhou Shuning nodded, "Yes, my brother is a person who does big things. Now even the Great Master should be a little polite to his brother."

Shen Changsheng raised his head and looked at Zhou Shuning's side face, and asked carefully: "By the way, you haven't told me yet, why are you here?"

Zhou Shuning said: "Since I followed my senior sister to Jinling Mansion to meet Sister Su and Sister Qin, I have been staying in Jinling Mansion. Senior sister has returned to Xiaozhou alone."

Shen Changsheng vaguely remembered that something happened, so he nodded and said, "A few days ago, the sect leader and sister Qin went to visit Yan Zhenren."

Zhou Shuning said "Oh" and felt a little unhappy.

Shen Changsheng hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Shuning sighed, "I just feel that my brother has changed a lot, more majestic than my master, and will no longer be as close to people as before."

Shen Changsheng nodded in agreement and said, "It is true, the sect leader is getting more and more harsh."

Zhou Shuning glared at him, "Okay, how dare you say bad things about your brother."

Shen Changsheng said in shock: "You are not..."

"What are you?" Zhou Shuning showed a rude look that she had never shown in front of Li Xuandu, "I can say, you can't."
