Chapter one hundred and ninetieth fog cover like lost
Wei Tingzhi was sent from Yuandu and immediately returned to the upper level. When they learned that he was back, all the court officials cast their own shadows into the assembly hall.
When the first Taoist saw that all the court officials had arrived except Feng Tingzhi, who was on an envoy mission, he asked Wei Tingzhi to explain the details.
Wei Tingzhi informed everyone in detail and explained the conditions proposed by the Yuandu faction, but these conditions were almost immediately rejected by all the officials.
Dai Ting insisted: "The Yuandu lineage wants to imitate Youcheng."
Everyone nodded.
That should be it.
It is not uncommon for sects or forces to voluntarily break away from Tianxia in the past, and Youcheng is an example.
But Tianxia has never acknowledged Youcheng until now.
And because Youcheng is not a sect, it was originally on the outer level, and no one in the inner level suffered any losses at that time, so the harm caused was not great.
But according to Yuanyu, it is true that Tianxia has left, but it is still in the inner layer.
After saying that the two will be irrelevant in the future, who can guarantee that the Yuandu lineage will not open the door to let the outer monks in? This is tantamount to breaking the outer twenty-eight stars at once, which is never allowed.
.
Even without talking about such things, Tianxia would not be able to set a precedent for the revival of the sect's old system. This is undoubtedly an act of digging its own foundation.
Everyone present could see clearly that the Yuandu Faction proposed this proposal at this time, precisely because Tianxia would most likely need to deal with the cooperation of various external forces, and maybe there was also the Huanyang Faction among them. The situation was very serious.
It's dangerous, so I want to use it as a threat to get out smoothly.
Lin Ting said: "The best way now is to find the two Taoist friends Xun Ji and Zhan Kong. If we can get these two here, then we can let them eliminate this matter, and there will be no need for
What's the conflict?"
Wei Tingzhi shook his head and said: "According to Zhang Shouzheng's previous report, fellow Taoist Zhankong should have gone back early in the morning to stop this incident, but now his whereabouts are unknown.
Wei guessed that fellow Taoist Zhankong might have been trapped by Ren Yinping's design or simply imprisoned. We can't count on him anymore. But if fellow Taoist Xun Ji is still there, his prestige and ability will be enough to convince Ren Yinping."
The first Taoist seemed to know something, and he said aloud: "Fellow Taoist Xun Ji, there is no need to go looking for it. We can only solve this matter ourselves."
After hearing what he said, all the court officials gave up the idea and started to think about it.
In fact, they were not defenseless against the Yuandu sect in the past. After all, making a contract only depends on the price you are willing to pay, and it cannot necessarily solve all problems.
Therefore, the upper level has a clear sky astrolabe for monitoring in case anything goes wrong. Furthermore, Xun Ji and Zhankong are completely inclined to Tianxia. Therefore, in the past three hundred years, the Yuandu sect has been very stable, almost
It's like it doesn't exist.
But who would have expected that these two people would no longer be able to influence the affairs of the sect. The Qingtian Astrolabe had been used before, so they were somewhat passive.
Fortunately, there is still a contract to maintain it, so the Yuandu sect is not able to take that step for the time being, but it will be hard to say as time goes by.
Chen Tingzhi said coldly: "The Yuandu Sect relies on nothing more than the fact that its sect is hard to find." He looked at Zhong and Chong and said: "Zhong Tingzhi, Chong Tingzhi, you guys
If you two borrow a suitable magic weapon, can you find a trace?"
Zhong Tingzhi thought for a while and said: "If we just find the location of the sect, it can be done, but it is of little significance, because even if we find the location, when I calculate it, it will disturb the secrets of heaven and control the law."
The person using the weapon will also have a sense of it and can avoid it in advance."
Chong Tingzhi said at this time: "If we can completely free our hands, and use the power of weapons and fellow Taoists, we can keep an eye on this place, but since Shang Chentian's attack, its heavenly secret has not disturbed it for a day.
If we stop, we won’t be able to do this.”
Everyone frowned. In terms of Tianji calculation, this was one of the few ways that Shangchentian could gain the upper hand over Tianxia, so it was difficult for them to get around it.
Taoist Yusu said categorically: "I, Tianxia, absolutely cannot accept the conditions proposed by Yuandu, but I can tell them clearly and ask them to abide by the agreement. If they are unwilling, then I, Tianxia, will have to use some means at any cost."
.”
At this time, Wei Tingzhi stood up and said: "Chief Executive, fellow Tingzhi, although Yuandu has strange thoughts, we have not taken that step yet, and there are still channels for communication. Wei is willing to go to Yuandu again."
Once we know the benefits to them, if it is really impossible, they will have broken the promise first, and then it will not be too late to take action."
The first Taoist thought for a while, and when he was about to speak, a light flickered in the hall. Taoist Mingzhou appeared under the hall. He looked over and said, "Mingzhou, is there anything wrong?"
Ming Zhou Taoist made an official and said respectfully: "Chief Executive, all court officials, Zhang Shouzheng has something important to report to the court, saying that it involves the Yuandu lineage."
Lin Tingzhi turned around and said: "Since the Chief Executive is involved in the Yuandu lineage, maybe Zhang Shouzheng can bring some useful news. It just so happens that all the Tingzhi are here, so you might as well invite Zhang Shouzheng to come to the palace to speak."
The first Taoist nodded and said, "That's fine. Tomorrow, go and invite Zhang Shouzheng."
Taoist Master Mingzhou bowed and then withdrew.
After a while, a ray of light appeared, and Zhang Yu's figure appeared here. He glanced at all the court officials, calmly raised his sleeves and saluted, and said: "The leader is polite, and all the court officials are polite."
The place where the meeting hall is located is relatively hidden for some purpose. No one knows where it is except for the chief executive. He needs to transform into a shadow every time to enter, so he also uses a shadow to get here at this moment.
Lin Ting said in a gentle voice: "Zhang Shouzheng, fellow Taoist Ming Zhou said that you have something important to report involving Yuandu. I wonder what it is?"
Zhang Yudao: "Some time ago, fellow Taoist Zhankong from the Yuandu lineage brought his disciples to Dongting. I had a photo with him at that time, but he suddenly noticed something happened and left in a hurry before leaving.
The disciple was entrusted to me before, and this matter has been reported to the court before.
But just now, the disciple of fellow Taoist Zhankong suddenly came to look for me and said that fellow Taoist Zhankong left something behind when he left. He said that if he didn't come back for a long time, he would entrust it to me and let me
Take a closer look."
As he said that, he took out the jade token and said, "I just took a look at it and found that with this item, I can find where the Yuandu lineage is hiding!"
"oh?"
When all the court heard what he said, they all looked concerned.
They had been discussing for a long time, and the most difficult problem to solve was that it was difficult to find the hiding place of the Yuandu people. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yu brought such news.
The first Taoist took a look, and the jade pendant disappeared from Zhang Yu's hand and appeared directly in his hand. He looked at it and confirmed: "This talisman can indeed implicate the Yuandu lineage." He looked up and said, "
Zhang Shouzheng, according to what you said, this thing was left on that disciple by fellow Taoist Zhankong early in the morning?"
Zhang Yu replied: "Exactly."
The first Taoist nodded and said: "Well, this should be the backup left by fellow Taoist Zhankong. This talisman should be the entry and exit talisman of Yuandu lineage. With this talisman, not only can we find the location of Yuandu lineage, but also
You can still enter from here.”
Chen Tingzhi's eyes flashed brightly and he said: "Shou Zhi, if this is the case, we will be able to take the initiative."
The first Taoist shook his head slowly and said: "It's not that simple."
Inside the gate of Yuandu Mountain, Qiao Yueqing returned to the sect from outside. She asked her disciples to go alone, and she went to see Wang Taoist first. After meeting, she said apologetically: "Senior brother, I am ashamed that I couldn't bring anyone with me."
When I came back, my disciples were trapped outside."
Wang Daoren comforted her and said: "Junior sister, there is no need to be like this. Who would have thought that Zhang Shouzheng was also a disciple of Senior Brother Xun? He used this as an excuse. We are bound by the contract and must confirm that before we are officially separated from Tianxia,
It’s not good at all.”
Qiao Yueqing said: "Senior Brother, I wonder if Senior Brother Ren is here? My little sister has something to report."
Wang Daoren said: "Senior brother is climbing the Weitai, and junior sister will go on her own."
Qiao Yueqing responded, said goodbye to Taoist Wang, and went to Panweitai. After the announcement, she walked up the steps to the high platform, saluted Ren Yinping who was waiting there, and said: "Senior brother, you are polite.
"
Ren Yinping also bowed and said, "Junior sister is back. It's been a hard trip."
Qiao Yueqing lowered her head and said: "My little sister has not accomplished anything, please ask your senior brother to punish her."
Ren Yinping said calmly: "This matter has nothing to do with you. I know you have tried your best."
Qiao Yueqing bowed again and said: "Senior brother, my little sister went there to see it. There are indeed traces left by senior brother Zhankong there, and there are also traces of foreign aura. That should be the message from Shang Chentian."
Ren Yinping said: "It'll be good if we can be sure. I'd like to thank you, Junior Sister."
Qiao Yueqing said: "Senior brother, I wonder if those captured disciples can beg Tianxia to get them back. After all, they were brought out by my little sister and cannot be abandoned."
Ren Yinping nodded and said: "These are my disciples and they will never give up. I will discuss this matter with Tian Xia again and try to get them back as soon as possible."
At this time, a disciple came by and bowed: "Master, Junior Brother Di is here."
Ren Yinping said to Qiao Yueqing: "If nothing happens to me, junior sister, please go down and rest first. If you have any questions, we will talk to you another day."
Qiao Yueqing said yes, and she was about to leave, but she hesitated, raised her head and said: Senior brother, hasn't Senior Brother Zhankong come back?"
Ren Yinping did not answer.
Qiao Yueqing was a little disappointed when she didn't get the answer. She bowed and left.
After waiting for a while, a young disciple in his twenties walked up. He was wearing a clean white robe and had a bit of confidence on his face. He came up and bowed and said, "I've seen the master, uncle."
Ren Yinping took a look and said, "My practice has improved. You have been practicing very diligently recently."
The young disciple said modestly: "Thank you very much, uncle, for the compliment. It's just a small improvement."
Ren Yinping said: "Your master refuses to look back, I hope you can persuade him on my behalf.
The young disciple was startled and said: "The master has an order, and the disciples should follow the orders. But after all, the master is the disciple, and the disciple may not be able to persuade him."
Ren Yinping said: "It doesn't matter, you just try your best. Also, ask him for me, does he still have the talisman for the entrance and exit of the sect with him?"
The young disciple unconsciously raised his head to glance at him, but then quickly lowered his head and said, "Yes."
