Chapter 54 Yin and Yang follow the principles of heaven
When Chao Tingzhi saw that Zhong Daoren had repeatedly avoided his questions, he smiled playfully and did not continue to ask any more questions. Anyway, he had already said everything he wanted to say.
The first Taoist priest did not immediately respond to Zhong Daoren's suggestion. He looked down the river of light and said, "You might as well tell me."
Chen Tingzhi pondered for a moment and said: "The Zhengqing lineage has been out for more than three hundred years. It is true that we cannot place all the blame on them, but the Zhengqing lineage also has its faults. Letting them prove their innocence is also a way.
.”
Zhong Daoren said: "Chen Tingzhi is right. Xuanting had also conducted strict investigations on the Zhengqing incident before, but it was difficult to eradicate it because there were always people using his name to do things in private. There were quite a few monks who believed it and were deceived to follow him.
And if someone from the Zhengqing lineage conducts a thorough investigation, then this matter can be eliminated from the root."
Wu Qingxu said in a deep voice: "It depends on whether the Zhengqing lineage has truly repented. If they are willing to give up their original rhetoric and clarify the matter with Xuanting, they can wait until they come back to help me, Tianxia."
Do your part.”
Taoist Yu Su just sneered slightly at this and said nothing more.
Dai Gonghan sat there silently. Everyone knew that when it came to the Zhengqing lineage, it was a dispute between Taoism and Taoism. This was not something that could be truly let go just by saying it verbally.
He could tell that Zhong Daoren wanted to bring back the Zhengqing lineage this time, and that the leader might also have this intention. As for the purpose, it was also obvious.
Previously, the court discussed the matter of Yiluo Shangzhou and refuted many of Xuanzun's suggestions. However, after the suppression, they should have been comforted, so welcoming Zhengqing back is to calm this generation's heart.
And this matter itself is theoretically correct, so it is not easy to object to it.
The first Taoist priest did not let everyone decide this time, but thought about it and said: "Then let's do this first, let the Zhengqing lineage first take the blame and perform meritorious service. When he resolves the matter, we will discuss the matter of removing the charges.
"
When Zhong Daoren heard this, he was convinced.
Although the first one has not passed the imperial examination, and it seems that a hole was left deliberately, but as long as someone from the Zhengqing lineage can come back, things will be much easier to handle, and we can try to move forward step by step in the future.
After this matter was settled, there was nothing else to do. The courtiers bowed to the upper end of the long river of light and returned to their respective Taoist palaces amidst the sound of jade chimes.
When Feng Taoist returned to the Dao Palace, he immediately called out Dao Xuanzhang to communicate with Zhang Yu, informing him of the court affairs, and said: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, with the return of the Zhengqing lineage, things will become complicated in the future.
Feng is actually not optimistic about this matter. After three hundred years, will the Zhengqing lineage give up their original words of reviving the true and destroying the mysterious? Letting the Zhengqing lineage come back at this time is actually to use this generation to suppress us."
Zhang Yu thought for a while and said: "If someone from the Zhengqing lineage comes back, we can first see how they do it."
He believed that judging from the conditions given by Xuan Ting, the Zhengqing lineage would definitely not bring up the plan of Zhen Mie Xuan again before they were truly pardoned.
So for now we can say we are on the same path.
But if this argument is raised again in the future, there is nothing to say. Naturally, we are enemies. Treat your comrades in the same way as you treat your comrades, and treat your enemies in the same way.
In fact, if Xuan Ting wants to maintain balance, even if he does not use Zhengqing people, he can still use other means. This is also a problem that he will have to face in the future, so he has already been prepared.
Feng Dao Ren said: "Fellow Taoist is right, now we can only wait and see what happens, but..." His voice was slightly solemn, "The reason why the Zhengqing lineage was expelled back then was not only because of its own contribution to Tianxia, but also because of others.
My master taught me well, fellow Taoist, but I have to pay attention to this."
Zhang Yu's eyes moved slightly and he nodded: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for reminding me."
When Taoist Zhong returned to the Taoist palace, he waved his sleeves towards the jade. When Taoist Changsun and Taoist Chong appeared, he told them what happened today. After discussing with them for a long time, he hid the jade.
He called his disciples and said, "Call Xu Chong."
The disciple was about to go down, but he called him again and said, "Isn't Zheng Xiang back yet?"
The disciple carefully replied: "The disciple has pressed me several times, and Pei Gu and the others are also investigating, but there has been no news."
Zhong Daoren has been thinking about how to bring back the Zhengqing lineage these days, and he didn't care about this matter. After hearing this, he thought for a moment, waved his sleeves, and asked his disciple to go down first.
He took a magic formula and made some calculations. His senses were confused and he had no clue. He couldn't help but frown. This situation was not normal, because Zheng Xiang had his methods left in him. Logically speaking, even if he died,
Yes, he could figure it out at a glance, which was why he wasn't in a hurry before.
But now there is no whereabouts. Unless other Xuanzun intervened and the secret was lost, is this just a coincidence, or is there someone working against him?
Just as he was thinking about it, the disciple just now said from outside: "Sir, Xu Chong is here."
Zhong Daoren put the matter aside for the time being and said: "Call him in."
Xu Chong walked in, bowed respectfully, and said: "Disciple pays homage to the Lord."
Zhong Daoren took a jade box from the case and said: "Give this thing to the Zhengqing disciple. And tell them that this matter is not easy to fight for. If they are still unwilling to express their attitude, then there may not be another chance next time.
This is your chance."
Xu Chong said: "Yes, I will bring the words to you." Seeing that Taoist Zhong had nothing to explain anymore, he took the jade box and retreated.
Since the correspondence had been established before, this time, in just over half a month, the letter was delivered to the Tao Palace where the Zhengqing lineage lived.
In the palace platform, the Taoist above the main seat handed it to Taoist Mei who came over and said, "Zhong Weiwu is quite sincere this time."
Taoist Mei took it and looked at it, then raised his head and said, "Senior brother, what should we do?"
The man said: "Although the time is a little early now, since we don't have to directly confront Xuanhun Dao, it's okay to go back first. And it's time to clean up those juniors who take my name of Zhengqing. I won't be here, Zhengqing
The reputation of our entire lineage has been ruined by them."
Taoist Mei asked: "Senior brother, are you ready to go in person?"
The man said: "Exactly."
Taoist Mei thought for a moment and said, "How about I go on behalf of senior brother?"
The Taoist shook his head and said: "In terms of merit and deeds, I am higher than you, junior brother, and I know more Taoists, both inside and outside Tianxia, than you, junior brother. It would be best for you to stay in the Tao Palace, junior brother."
Taoist Mei hesitated for a moment and then said: "Brother, is the teacher there..."
The Taoist thought for a while and sighed: "The teacher kicked us out in the first place. If we don't regain our footing in Xuanting, how can we go to see the teacher?"
After a pause, he said: "Junior brother is here to take care of you, and I will leave to return to Tianxia in the next few days."
In the outer void, a secluded city is floating slowly. This city is smaller than many secluded cities, but it does not stop in one place, but is constantly moving under the support of the secluded air.
Jin Zhixing was sitting upright on the throne at the highest point of the Celestial City. In front of him was a lamp emitting green light. He placed his hand above the light and looked like he was refining the lamp.
At this time, a disciple came over with several people, slapped him on the head, and said: "Xuanzun, this disciple has brought these people."
Jin Zhi couldn't help but looked at the people behind the disciple.
The disciple turned around and signaled, and the few people who followed him took off their hoods, revealing pale, bloodless faces with dry skin and flesh, and their eyes were all glowing with golden color.
One of them stood up and said: "Xuanzun, we have tried. We can connect with each other's minds and hear what the other person is saying. However, the further the distance, the more difficult it becomes, and it may even consume our vitality."
Another person next to him also said: "We can feel that we are still missing something, and we need a sustenance. This can not only make up for the vitality we have lost, but our ability to connect with each other will be deepened."
Jin Zhixing could tell their details at a glance and knew that what he said was not a lie. Judging from the Shuangzhou people's books he obtained, there might be an evil god hiding in the inner layer behind the Shuangzhou people.
He doesn't care about the evil god, he only cares about whether he can achieve his goal. Now it seems that these Shuangdao need a "brain".
The stronger the "brain" and the extra strength to make up for its own consumption, the stronger the ability displayed.
In his opinion, these problems are not difficult to solve, and he believes that this is a good thing. If the "brains" are controlled by them and then sent to various secluded cities, it will actually allow the main city to have more control over each branch city.
It's stable.
Under the altar, another disciple hurried over and handed over a letter, saying: "Teacher, a letter from the main city has been sent."
Jin Zhixing took it over, opened it and looked at it, seeming to mutter to himself: "Oh? Is that plan about to come true?"
The letter came out: "Qi Xuanzun, I heard that it was not time to do this, but Tianxia has been very fierce recently. In the last collision in Dongqiongtian, Shangchentian lost miserably.
Now, I heard that several of the disciples of Master Yuanshen have died, so he sent a letter to us, saying that he was ready to take action in advance."
Although this letter talks about the tragic events of Shang Chentian, the voice is filled with a sense of schadenfreude.
Jin Xuanzun hummed, without comment.
The Shangchentian family has a great cause, and they can afford to lose several times, and they have many back-ups. Youcheng is different. It is too weak in comparison. Although they, the upper-level monks, can always go somewhere, except for Youcheng
, no place would be so indulgent to them, even Shangchentian would have certain restrictions.
He said: "Does the Master Xian Ding have any explanation regarding this matter?"
The letter said: "Shangzun said, go to Chentian to do the things of Shangchentian, and we in Youcheng will do the things of Youcheng."
Jin Xuanzun suddenly understood and said: "I understand, thank you for your hard work."
The letter trembled a little and said: "It's not hard, it's not hard. I can do things for Master Xuan. I'm full of energy."
Jin Xuanzun smiled and said: "Go back and tell Master Xianding that I have an idea of what is going on here. We will find out within a hundred days!"
