, we don’t care whether it is by name or not, but there is also an outlier like Yin Yi, who always wants to practice hard and establish a sect, and one day he will prove to the master that he is qualified to be a direct disciple.

It seemed that Yin Yi had thought of hiring Xie Songhua to be Yin Ying's swordsmanship master. Thinking of this, Feng Xuetao asked, "Why didn't Xie Songhua serve as the enshrinement of the Qingping Sword Sect?"

Cui Dongshan chuckled.

Chen Pingan said helplessly, "Maybe Xie Jianxian likes freedom and doesn't like to be restrained by the sect. I guess the reason why she is willing to serve as the family worshiper of the Liu family in Aai Aizhou is because of the friendship with her fellow countrymen."

Cui Dongshan was still minding his own business there, but he got another solid chestnut blow.

Feng Xuetao felt as if he was falling into the clouds, but he did not delve into the reason.

It turns out that Chen Ping'an is really afraid of Xie Songhua, and gets scared every time they meet. This female swordsman from Aaizhou is not an ordinary swordsman, and she is a good swordsman. She drinks and talks dirty.

"I really can't find my favorite Taoist companion. In fact, Chen Yinguan can make do with it. Don't worry, I don't want a status. I can hide my beauty in the golden house."

"Don't forget that Mrs. Song Pin is aloof in front of others and puts on a lot of airs. In fact, when we talk about the boudoir in private, it's all nonsense. Even I can't stand it, tsk tsk tsk..."

No matter how courageous Chen Ping'an was, how could he dare... to lure a wolf into his house?

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile, "Why did His Majesty the Emperor of Yunyan Kingdom lead a group of high-ranking court officials in an alley and act like a wooden man?"

Chen Pingan said angrily, "Isn't the alley cooler than the restaurant?"

Cui Dongshan's chicken pecked the rice, "Okay, okay, okay, okay."

Feng Xuetao laughed it off.

Chen Pingan put away his thoughts and returned to the fly restaurant, where he continued to drink and eat hot pot with Fan Tong and Xie Sanniang.

The table next door stood up to pay the bill and left the restaurant, but soon discovered that the situation in the alley outside was unusual.

A narrow alley is roughly divided into three "hills". At the front is a pampered middle-aged man with a jade pendant with a dragon pattern hanging on his waist. Standing next to him are two majestic old men. One has a white face and no beard, with his hands in

Sleeves, habitually bowing his head and bending over. The other person has a tall crown and ancient appearance, full of Taoism, and sharp eyes. After him are seven or eight men with strong official aura and different ages. They all wear casual clothes. Then they approach the corner of the alley.

At the intersection, there were all burly young men wearing imperial swords. Under the moonlight, the cuffs of some of them slightly showed the light of their armor.

When the group of people leaving the restaurant saw this scene, they had no choice but to turn around and walk away from the alley, walking slowly.

Before they left the alley, a woman in the team was extremely excited and said in a trembling voice, "I recognize two princes in the alley."

The other woman was in high spirits and said in a low voice, "It seems that there is also the Minister of Rites."

As for the several Qi Refiners, they communicated with each other from the bottom of their hearts, "The middle-aged man standing next to him seems to be the new national master of Yunyan Kingdom."

"So, the emperor is here in person?"

"You can't just wait for someone? If that's the case, it's strange. Who can have such a big name nowadays?"

"Is it the leader Wei Ying of the Yugui Sect?"

"Wei Dajianxian is so free and eating hot pot in the same restaurant as us?"

"Is it that Sect Master Cui from the Qingping Sword Sect? No, I heard that the Sect Master is a young man with good looks and likes to wear white clothes."

Anyway, they just couldn't figure it out.

In the store, Chen Pingan asked seemingly casually, "Fan Tong, do you want to find a job at the foot of the mountain, such as making an iron rice bowl in the government of a small country, or go to the mountain to find an immortal sect suitable for practicing Taoism."

Fan Tong said carelessly, "You can choose whatever you want. The question is who is willing to accept us, Master Chen Xian, right?"

Xie Sanniang thought for a while and said, "Master Chen Xian, to be honest, we still want to go to the mountains to find a chance to have an immortal family."

Chen Pingan nodded, "I understand."

Standing up, Chen Pingan clasped his fists and said goodbye, saying with a smile, "We are full of wine and food. The mountains are high and the rivers are long. We are destined to meet again."

Chen Pingan stretched out his hand and pressed it softly to indicate that there was no need to be pretentious and stood up to see him off. "We are so familiar, so don't be polite."

Fan Tong remembered something and was about to speak, reminding Chen Xianshi that he had forgotten to pay, and that we had agreed to treat you and you would pay the bill, when the woman stepped on the back of her shoe and gave her a fierce glare.

The man was a little confused, and Master Chen Xian was not short of money. This time he was treating us, and we can invite him back next time. Master Chen had already said that they were all acquaintances and there was no pretense.

In a quiet alley.

A local woman from Beijing who was walking at the end of the team turned her head and looked into the alley by some strange mistake.

She had been in the romantic scene for many years, and had never seen any scenery, wealth or arrogance, but she still saw an unbelievable scene that she would never forget.

I remember that because they were sitting next to each other, she and the last man sitting at the next table happened to be sitting with their backs facing each other. Once when she was toasting those immortal masters, she felt that the seat was cramped, and she wanted to remind the man behind her

, could you lean closer to his wine table? But when she turned back after toasting, she found that the man had already moved the bench on his own initiative.

However, when the poor man in blue shirt walked out of the restaurant, the middle-aged men in the alley began to bow and salute. At the same time, everyone bowed their heads or bowed their heads, and there was a faint clanking of iron armor.

————

Zhao Tieyan, leader of the Danjing sect, is a Qi practitioner in the cave realm. He has been a Taoist priest for more than a hundred years. He is short in stature and has clear eyes. He wears civilian clothes and straw sandals and has an iron mace engraved with the thunder talisman on his waist.

When Zhao Tieyan and his group of Qi practitioners arrived at the capital city of Yunyan Kingdom, they just followed the small fish in the stream and entered the Longtan. They did not cause any waves, unlike in that remote small country where they could still be called gods a few times. Zhao Tieyan has a place here.

Shimen Industry opened a grocery store in Yulindu. It was difficult to find with twists and turns, so you had to ask for directions. If you wanted to ask how the business was, it was probably not as good as the nearby midnight snack restaurant selling grilled fish. Zhao Tieyan frowned when he saw it.

My fellow merchant, Bu Zhan, could only console me by saying that business in the mountains is always like this: if you don't open for three years, you will have to wait for three years if you open.

The other two groups of Qigong practitioners who were traveling with them thought that they could gain some kudos and find a place to stay in the capital, but they never thought that they would have to find an inn by themselves.

In fact, both parties are embarrassed, and it is even more embarrassing if they pretend not to be embarrassed at all.

After several years, the brothers reunited, and Shang Zuo kept pouring out his bitterness at the wine table. It turned out that the high-ranking officials in the capital, not to mention the emperor's relatives and Jiuqing, all had very high vision.

Lang Guan, it is not easy to cross the threshold. They do not take the monks of the lower five realms seriously at all. Over and over again, Shang Zuo wants to return to the sect, hide in the mountains, and pick up the practice again. Zhao Tieyan also thinks about this.

With no choice but to do so, he silently made up his mind. If it really didn't work out, he would stay here and let Junior Brother Shang return to the sect with the new disciple.

In today's world, the immortal masters on the mountain are not rich, but the countries below the mountain are not rich. They are all tightening their belts and living a life.

Several juniors who came down the mountain to practice this time, they started practicing Taoism late, and their qualifications are still relatively young. They don’t have much feelings about it. They just feel that when they go out to practice Taoism, they should often eat and sleep in the open air and endure more hardships.

Master Zhao Tieyan has experienced many blessings. He remembers that when he was young, he went down the mountain with his elders to practice for the first time. When he was young, he said in Taoist books that the world of mortals is vast, fame and fortune are wrapped in turtle shells, etc. It turned out to be all nonsense.

When people go to the foot of the mountain, they enter a world of flowers. The elders are also open-minded. There is one thing to say on the mountain, but it is another thing in private under the mountain. They are not pedantic and old-fashioned. They just allow a few of them to be more casual.

In fact, you don’t have to strictly abide by the rules and precepts. You just need to remember to go back to the mountains and don’t talk nonsense, lest someone from Zhanglu’s lineage listens and takes the opportunity to make a fuss out of a molehill.

Shang Zuo had a complicated look on his face and murmured, "Senior Brother Zhao, how could I have been living a good life in the mountains and cultivating Taoism, but it has turned into a business?"

After drinking a bowl of barley wine, which was as light as water, Shang Zuo tugged at his collar, shook his sleeves, and laughed at himself, "My body is full of copper stench, and I can't even wash it off."

Zhao Tieyan smiled and said, "This time when I go down the mountain, it was the head brother who asked me to take your place."

Shang Zuo glanced at the master lawyer and waved his hand, "Don't fool me with such lame excuses. There is no reason for a sect to open a shop in the market to make money all year round. I am not complaining to you because I want to go back and hide in peace.

It's okay to live a miserable life, but you can't let me not complain, right?"

Zhao Tieyan became even more sad, but he still smiled and said, "It will get better in the future. When the head brother becomes a Jindan Earth Immortal, our sect will truly have a place on Tongyezhou Mountain."

Shang Zuo just drank a bowl of wine and said with a depressed look, "I saw a good seedling not long ago. The qualifications are really good. I think they are no worse than the head brother. It's a pity that I didn't fight for it and it was snatched by others. I'm a coward."

, I don’t even dare to let go of a fart.” .??.??

Zhao Tieyan was speechless, hesitated, and asked, "Still in the capital? Is there any room for mediation?"

Shang Zuo shook his head and said, "The person who robbed someone was a young Nascent Soul Realm. In fact, the other person was quite kind and polite. Besides, the kid had officially become a disciple, and he even took the initiative to come to me and apologize. He also said

Send a message to his master that if there is an opportunity in the future, he will definitely repay a portion of the fate to the Danjing Sect."

Zhao Tieyan sighed. Among the ancestors of the sect, the one with the highest level was Yuanying.

It's just that the last time Tongyezhou suffered a great disaster, the entire sect moved to Wucai Tianxia with the Divine Master. Zhao Tieyan and the others were unwilling to leave and took the initiative to stay. Except for the head brother and the senior sister who is now in charge of money, the rest

Zhao Tieyan and Shang Zuo were not even direct disciples of the Ancestral Master Hall back then. I heard that the Colorful World will open its doors again in eighty years. I wonder what the situation will be like then.

Zhao Tieyan said, "Before going down the mountain, senior brother and senior sister Huang called me. They have made a decision. I want to talk to you and want to hear your opinion."

Shang Zuo picked up a salted peanut, chewed it carefully, looked sad, but said in an extremely firm tone, "No matter what you discuss, I have already thought about it. Even if they return to Tong eighty years later,

Ye Zhou, I don’t recognize them as the ancestors anymore. If the three of you want to recognize your ancestors and return to the clan, help me cancel the Danjing sect’s genealogy, and I won’t go back to the mountain to be looked down upon. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if you have me or not.

Both. It was the same in the past and it will be even more so in the future.”

Zhao Tieyan smiled and said, "You are mistaken. We all have the same view as you."

While they were talking to each other over wine, Shang Zuo's disciples came to the backyard to report the news. A Qi practitioner who was out looking for money came to the shop. He handed in a greeting card and was told that he had a small sect and was proficient in building institutions.

Together with the economics, we will see if there is any chance to cooperate with your faction. Zhao Tieyan opened the note box, read the text on the greeting note, and handed it to his junior brother. In the end, Zhao Tieyan and Shang Zuo looked at each other and were completely confused.

Why don't you find someone with strong family background to cheat you in the autumn wind?

Shang Zuo told his disciples, "Send the other party away with good words and don't start any unnecessary disputes."

Unexpectedly, the uninvited guest had already left the shop and came to the backyard. With a smile on his face, he stretched out his hand and said, "Zhao Zhanglu, Brother Shang, long time no see!"

Just because the other party was too warm, and the relationship was as hot as meeting an old friend after a long absence. Zhao Tieyan glanced at Shang Zuo, and Shang Zuo also looked at Zhao Tieyan, thinking that it was the other party's friend who came to visit.

I've seen people who are messy, but I've never seen anything so inexplicable.

The young man in white didn't seem to have any self-awareness, with a sincere expression on his face. He stood on the patio in the courtyard and talked to himself, "It is said that there are twenty-four pools in the Danjing sect mountain, each named after the solar term. It is really a beautiful place suitable for practicing Taoism, which is both eye-catching and nourishing for the heart."

What a great place. From my point of view, it would be unreasonable not to have a person who reaches the fifth realm."

The young man continued, "I also heard that the founder of your mountain was a traveling doctor. He sold medicinal materials in the mountain market. He met a strange person by chance. Because of his kindheartedness, he got a fairy fate and embarked on the path of spiritual practice. After that, he encountered many strange encounters and was also influenced by it.

Well-deserved. Until the Danjing Sect’s incense and Taoist traditions are passed on to this generation of leaders, what should I say? Every family has sutras that are difficult to recite?”
