Chu Wei, the exorcist at the Le'an County Exorcist Department, code-named "Bi Fang", is 21 years old this year. He is good at fire-attribute spells. He was defeated by "Sutra Bi", "Qilin", "Qingluan" and others in the "Reality of Discussion on Taoism", and has no victory.

When his colleagues asked him, "I heard that the masters gathered in the 'Shenji Camp', can you be named in it?"

Chu Wei would smile embarrassedly and said, "It's normal, I can barely squeeze into the top ten."

Hearing this, his colleagues would look at him and exclaim: "Then you are doing well, either!"

However, the fact is-

There are only nine second-level monks in the "Shenji Camp" reserve.

He ranks ninth on the list.

Sometimes even Chu Wei himself couldn't understand why the headquarters of the Exorcist Department wanted to recruit people like him into the "Shenji Camp".

"Maybe Lord Sishou got drunk that day and accidentally ticked my name on the list!" He guessed this more than once.

Perhaps Chu Wei's active speech in the "Taoshi Room" today will make people think that he is a passionate and cheerful talker.

However, in fact, in the real world, he is a dull, restrained, and even a little inferior.

Even though he has extremely rich inner activities.

But as long as he communicates with someone in person, he will be nervous and anxious, and unknowingly forget the words he is about to say.

Because of his personality, and the officials and yamen runners in Le'an County are all male, there is almost no opposite sex in his social circle except his mother.

Until he met "Miss Qilin" in the "Real Realm of Discussion on Taoism".

Although Chu Wei did not perform well in the "Reality of Discussion on the Tao" that day and was suppressed by the "Direction of the Dragon", "Qilin Girl" was still smiling and praising him, "Brother, you are so powerful", "Brother, your strength must be stronger than this", "Good brother, don't be discouraged. If I hadn't used the tricks, I wouldn't have beaten you at all"...

These words of "Qilin" left a very deep impression on Chu Wei.

In his opinion, this monk, code-named "Qilin", must be a beautiful and kind girl.

She defeated herself, but instead of being proud and sarcastic, she gently comforted his wounded heart.

Therefore, Chu Wei couldn't wait to meet "Qilin Girl".

He also knew very well that with his mediocre status and cultivation, he might not even be the other party’s friends.

But as long as he could see the other person, he would be satisfied.

"But, 'Qilin Girl', why don't you want to see me so much?" Chu Wei sat beside the bed and sighed silently, "Is it because I am really bad?"

Although he had just swallowed a "Eternal Ming Pill", he was still unable to calm down and entered a state of cultivation.

…………

at the same time.

In another room at "Tongfu Inn".

"So this young man named 'Gu Xu' is stronger than I expected."

"Zhulong" Chen Yanping sat on a bamboo chair, holding the "Shen Ji Token" in his hand, staring at the code name "Sugu Bird", and thought silently in his heart.

In the Great Qi Dynasty, the three major clans, Chen, Zhao and Shen, were all extremely powerful.

But the areas they each penetrate are different.

The Chen family in Xiangyang pursued the method of "using talents to enter the officialdom and managing the family and governing the country", and practiced classics and history, and cultivated a large number of family children and disciples to join the court to become officials.

In the Daqi court, three of almost every ten civil servants were able to get involved with the Chen family in various ways.

In addition, the empress Chen Anzhi of the dynasty was the sister of the head of the Chen family - that is to say, Princess Zhaoning is also the niece of the head of the Chen family.

Therefore, the influence of the Chen family in Xiangyang on the political situation in Daqi is extraordinary.

The Zhao family in Youzhou pursued a way of killing on the battlefield. The family members had basically struggled in the army, so they had a deep connection with the Great Qi army.

In addition, Zhao Changying, the head of the Zhao family, was a saint of the age, and few people dared to provoke them.

As for the Shen family in Jinling, they pursued the way of making money by trade and making money. For hundreds of years, they were the richest wealthy family in the Great Qi Dynasty.

Their family's industries are numerous, including not only elixirs, magic weapons, talismans, etc. provided to practitioners, but also involve famous food, salt transportation, tea, silk, etc.

The Shi family, who owns several alchemy workshops, can only be considered a small fuss in front of the Shen family in Jinling.

After all, for a behemoth like the Shen family in Jinling, every key decision may affect the economic lifeline of the entire country.

Of course, this does not mean that other families do not have their own industries.

It’s just that among all the families, the Shen family of Jinling seems particularly outstanding.

…………

As a member of the Chen family in Xiangyang, Chen Yanping naturally had much more information than most members of the "Shenji Camp".

He had long learned from the channels of the family that a genius monk named "Gu Xu" appeared in Yishui County, Qingzhou Prefecture, Jiaodong Province of Daqi. He was deeply favored by Luo Chuan, the head of the Exorcist Department, and solved the case of the Lu family's haunted house and became the new owner of "Jinghong Pen". In addition, he also learned the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" famous for his difficult and difficult understanding.

"This time you go to the ruins of Laoshan. In addition to looking for the inheritance of immortals, I have another task to hand over to you," Chen Shandao, the head of the Chen family, once explained to Chen Yanping, "I've tried to win over this young man named 'Gu Xu'.

"You should be very clear about what a young monk like him who has no background but holds famous instruments means to our Chen family and to the Great Qi Dynasty."

"But, father, Luo Sishou attaches great importance to him now," Chen Yanping once asked, "If we go directly to recruit him, it may make Lord Sishou dislike him?"

"You don't need to deliberately recruit him, you just need to make friends with him," Chen Shandao explained. "If you have the opportunity in the future, you can introduce him to Su Hui to get to know each other."

Chen Suhui is the youngest daughter of the head of the family, Chen Shandao. Because she is smart and has a strong understanding, she has always been deeply loved by Chen Shandao.

"Father, do you... do you want Su Hui to marry him?" Chen Yanping felt a little incredible about his father's words.

"To be precise, I want that boy named Gu to marry into Chen's family," Chen Shandao replied, "Our Chen originally only had a famous instrument, "Holy Mencius Book".

"But, as long as Gu Xu becomes our Chen family, we will have two famous tools."

Daughters are important.

However, in front of powerful famous instruments, they can also be used as bargaining chips.

This is the implication that Chen Shandao wanted to express.

Chen Yanping nodded and agreed with his father's point of view.

He knew that for family descendants like them, marriage was just a tool for establishing relationships - for example, Chen Yanping himself, whether it was Xiaohan when he first proposed to marry or now getting married with Yao Sirou, it was just for the sake of profit.

…………

So, after receiving his father's instructions, Chen Yanping began to inquire about Gu Xu as soon as he arrived in Laizhou Prefecture.

And now, when he saw the speeches of everyone in the "Daoshima Room" - especially the sentence "Qilin" "He broke my 'Dianlong Realm'", he immediately guessed the identities of "Zhu Bi" and "Qilin".

"Suhu Bi" must be Gu Xu who masters the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven".

"Qilin" should be the fourth prince Xiao Shangzhen - because Chen Yanping knew that among the team heading to the ruins of Laoshan, there was only Xiao Shangzhen, a royal member.

The "Heart Sutra of the Dragon" is an untransmitted technique of the Daqi royal family.

"Haha, 'Qilin Girl'... I didn't expect that my cousin was so interesting," Chen Yanping smiled and thought to himself, "And that guy Gu Xu... besides the 'Fengtian Seven Styles' and 'Jinghong Pen', he actually has so many methods. If he could really marry into our Chen family, my father would probably be very happy."

…………

After reading the news in the "Daoshi Room", Gu Xu put away the "Shen Ji Token", swallowed a "Changming Pill", closed his eyes and began to practice quietly.

He knew his identity had been exposed.

But he didn't care about it.

We will meet everyone soon, and it will be a matter of time before we can expose it.

Anyway, he has always been a person who is consistent in his appearance and never stubbornly argues about himself in the "state of discussion of Taoism", and naturally he will not "died in the light".

So that night, he practiced for four hours without distraction.

Until the early morning of the next day, his "Shen Ji Token" received a message from "Qingluan".
