Chapter 837 The curtain rises

After Li Jiang finished speaking, Ning Wan said quietly:

"Indulging demons, aren't these Jiangbei Taoist leaders afraid that the True Lord will also regard them as evil people?"

Li Jiangqian quickly replied:

"In the past in the north, [Bojin Sect] has lost its last breath since the death of Situ Mo, the leader of the sect. The sect has been in chaos and has signs of falling apart. It cannot control the large and small forces under its rule."

After hearing this, Ning Wan felt a little regretful and added:

"If Xuan Feng can survive until today, his opportunity has come."

There is a "Tianxu Gold Sutra" in the Boring Gold Gate, which is the Zifu Kung Fu practice of "Golden Stone" practiced by Li Xuanfeng. If Li Xuanfeng did not have to take pills, he would still have the opportunity to obtain the Kung Fu technique after practicing to this day.

But Li Jiangqian was unsure of the Ning family's attitude towards the Si family, so he nodded respectfully and replied without answering:

"The real person of [called Yunmen] had some conflicts with the Lotus Temple in the north. All the people went to the north. The monks under his rule [Yasa Chengmi] took advantage of the fact that the name of the Yunmen was unable to take action, so they started a turmoil and spread the theory of Buddhism and cultivation. Law…"

Jiangbei was captured by Shi Xiu several times. Shi Dharma already had a foundation and was highly respected by the people. It spread very quickly. There were already many rebellions like this. Ting Lan added with a smile:

"I think this Master Chang Yun is really capable. He came out from the East China Sea and has a good way of cleaning up the sect. He is also related to the Lotus Temple. Here you and I are pushing each other to act. This medicine master has become a secret." Maybe he is still claiming to be smart, thinking that Minghui is holding back the real person for him. "

Ning Wan was thoughtful. When Li Jiangqian saw that she didn't speak, he continued:

"The remaining Xuanmiao Temple... said that the real person is going to travel far away. This temple should seal the mountain and send all the outer disciples away and stay behind closed doors."

"There is another Duxian Dao in the south. The real person is missing. Now there are signs of autonomy in the counties. The Baijiang River is in turmoil. My family has withdrawn and is confronting Duxian Dao in the north of the river."

Both of them are real people. Naturally, there is no need to explain everything in such detail. You can understand it just by listening. Ning Wan said:

"Everyone really shows off their magical powers!"

Ting Lan said:

"Excuse me for bothering you. The land of the three Mifan families in Baijiang River is indeed suitable for the True Lord to rise. How is it now?"

The places she mentioned were the Li family's Funan, Duxian's Midong, and the only surviving Fanyun Cave. They were the key places to take care of. How could she not understand that? Li Jiangqian said:

"There was a dispute between my family and Duxian. The land of these three families was already in chaos. The other families were relatively restrained, but it was the people from Donghai and Nanhai who took the lead. A Yellow Daoist and a Bai Daoist all brought people. In name, He is collecting gas in Jiangbei, but he is actually taking advantage of this opportunity to search for and rob spiritual objects to make a fortune. "

"On the other end, I heard that they are also searching for a token... related to the Mifan Taoism."

He answered after considering this, but Tinglan smiled and said:

"The token you mentioned...is indeed true."

'true. ’

How could Li Jiangqian not know whether this matter was true?

As soon as Ting Lan signaled, a woman in purple clothes came up with a jade plate, walked to Li Jiangqian, and bent down slightly to let the man in black robe see the contents on the jade plate.

Astonishingly, it was a token with gold patterns on a black background and an image of floating clouds disillusioned and demons bowing their heads!

This token is bright and bright, and looks extremely precious. It is difficult to tell the quality of its material. There is a faint black wind and white air floating on the token. Li Jiangqian has also seen good things, but at a glance, he can only I feel like this thing belongs to Zifu!

What's even more rare is that although the purpose of this thing is unknown, just by looking at it, you can tell that it has a noble character, which makes people excited, greedy, and eager to put it in their pocket.

'Sure enough, Zi Mansion made it happen... This thing is so realistic. If I didn't know that I made it up myself, even if it was put in front of me, I would only think it was a secret treasure of a big power. As long as the conditions It fits and will shine so quickly that you won't even recognize what it is...'

Tinglan glanced at him and said softly:

"This is the token. Take a good look at it and let Du Xiandao recognize it."

Li Jiangqian saluted and said:

"I obey my orders!"

He was a foundation-building monk, and he remembered it just by looking at it. The female cultivator in purple brought the jade plate back, and Ting Lan said casually:

"This thing has many wonderful uses. It would be great if any Donghai monk could get it."

Ting Lan didn't say much to him, but looked at Ning Wan and said:

"Wan'er now...do you have any other plans?"

Ning Wan naturally shook her head. With these arrangements, it would be better if Ting Lan, the one who achieved the success of the Zifu, came in older years. Ting Lan asked just politely. Ning Wan said softly:

"Xueji Gate has been closed for many years, is there any news now?"

Ning Wan practiced Han Qi and obviously immediately made arrangements for her subsequent practice. Ting Lan shook her head and replied:

"After all, Xueji has a long history. It's not appropriate to go back to the mountain after it's closed."

She reminded Ning Wan, and Ning Wan responded, but Ting Lan pointed out another way out and replied:

"Since Taoist friends have become real people, Hongxue's matter must be handed over to Taoist friends. Wasn't it just for Hongxue's Taoist tradition that Li Encheng was saved back then? Now there is Li Quantao. Senior Yuan Xiu sent him to Hongxue. The ruins of Xue were stationed, but there wasn’t much movement.”

"As soon as your news came out, Senior Yuanxiu was also preparing to attack Zhenjun, so he hurriedly called Li Quantao back, just to protect this road for you."

Ning Wan nodded in surprise, and Ting Lan continued:

"Now that the True Lord is observing the world of mortals, Hongxue's ruins are also in the wilderness - around Xianhu Lake. It is a good time to find out the Taoism and let him give it a try. If he really gets lucky, 'Fu Shui', 'Han' Qi', at least two Zifu Dao Lineages, are still profitable."

"I specifically asked you to get involved in this matter this time because of this consideration."

Ning Wan was slightly moved.

Among the many purple mansions in the south of the Yangtze River, Tinglan is definitely one of the most trustworthy to the Ning family. Her master, Zi Pei, and her uncle, Zi Fei, are both close friends of Master Yuan. Master Zi Fei even When you are alive, you naturally have to take care of yourself.

She then replied:

"I will send Li Quantao and his son back to their hometown to guard it, and then send his son to investigate the Jiangbei Token and try his luck. But I don't know the details here, so I have to trouble my seniors."

"It's natural."

Tinglan nodded slightly and replied:

"I will send Qianli there to observe the situation and act accordingly. If something goes wrong, I will just carry the two of them away. No matter what, we must protect the descendants of Hongxue."

Li Jiangqian on the side heard more and more something was wrong. The real person Ting Lan took out this thing and said it, and the meaning was obvious. As expected, the real person Ting Lan looked over with a smile and ordered:

"No one will know it."

How could Li Jiangqian not know that he was talking to himself, so he bowed:

"I am following the decree."

The Wangyue Li family has a very good relationship with Li Quantao. If Li Quantao is allowed to come to Xianhu and is not allowed to contact the Li family, he will know about the affairs in the north and will have doubts about the Ning family. Although the matter will not threaten Li Quantao's life, it may even be harmful to him. The good thing is that if you want to get involved in Hongxue Taoism, it would be best if Li Quantao didn't know about it.

The two real people settled the matter and went to Taixu together, leaving only a letter from Li Ximing, saying that the family asked Li Jiangqian and two people to take charge of the affairs.

Li Jiangqian sent the two of them away with gifts and then disappeared. Then he looked at Li Xuanxuan who was standing aside. The old man stroked his beard and sighed, frowning.

It was impossible for Li Xuanxuan not to understand what the two real people meant. The old man still had a good impression of Li Quantao, so he stood up and said:

"You should think more carefully before acting...Quantao saved Zhi'er...although...he can't do anything about this matter. It's better for Ximing to be here. He can say a word or two. He's not here right now and has no right to interfere."

Li Jiangqian replied:

"Your Excellency, you are overly worried. The two masters specifically explained to my family that they have considered that Li Quantao also has some Wei and Li blood, but he is also a monk from Qingchi. With the blessing of dual identities, the Ning family will give him a lot of money, which is also a blessing. "

Li Xuanxuan didn't know whether he said this deliberately because he was suspicious that Ning Wan had not left, or he was thinking this way. He nodded and left. Li Jiangqian was deep in thought, asking for the immortal guide in his heart, observing Taixu No one, and then he dared to think about it.

'With the talisman in her body, even if she has evil thoughts, Ning Wan's "Intense Listening" should not be alert. If she listens attentively, I don't know what she can hear...'

He pondered for a long time and was troubled in his heart. When Li Minggong came in from the outside of the palace, he also frowned. Apparently, Li Minggong also knew about the bad things her father Li Xixi did when she was in seclusion to heal her wounds.

Li Minggong met Li Jiangqian, asked about the real person just now, and said softly:

"Just now someone came to report that the Taoist priest from Jingyi Mountain has left the confinement. He showed Jingyi Mountain to Dexin. If he wants to see me, he will be asked to come here and ask together."

Li Jiangqian had doubts in his mind for a long time. After finally getting out of the confinement, he quickly nodded and asked him to come up.

Sure enough, I saw a Taoist priest coming in front of me. His face was no longer as withered as when he was injured, but still a little pale. When he saw the two of them, he bowed:

"Thank you to Wangyue for taking me in! You will be rewarded if you stay and return to the mountain!"

"There is no need to repay you."

Li Minggong was quite polite to him, and after responding to this sentence, he remained silent in his seat. Li Jiangqian laughed, helped him up, and whispered:

"When Master Chang Xi entrusted Kong Gumo to Jingyi Mountain, what happened now? Master Chang Xi made a clever plan and saved the fire... My family has a close relationship with Master Lao, and I don't know how he communicated with your family... It must be That’s a sincere statement, wow!”

His eyes were full of sadness. He put one hand behind Shou Ding and shook his head with a choked voice. Shou Ding was moved by his tone. After listening to his words, he sighed:

"Isn't that right? It turns out that the old master has also made it clear to the nobles. Keeping this fire is the first priority, and the domestic one is the second. If we can do our best, my family should do the same. If there is a war, we will give up."

'really…'

Li Jiangqian sneered in his heart:

‘This is what Master Chang Xi had in mind. He told my family that Jingyishan would help, but he was vague about how much he would help! As expected, Master Xuan Yi only agreed to keep Kong Gumo! ’

‘On the other hand, this Su Ming acted hypocritically and secretly accused Jingyi over and over again. Could this old guy not know? I don’t know what they have in mind when adding fuel and jealousy to it, okay... none of these guys are good. ’

The expression on his face remained unchanged, and he did not completely listen to Shou Ding's words. Instead, he sighed tentatively:

"Your relationship with Xuanyue must be good if you can devote yourself to protecting it. To the east..."

He was only halfway through speaking when Shou Ding raised his hands as if he had seen the god of plague, shook his head and said:

"The head of the family misunderstood! My family's orthodoxy does feel a little sad for the old master, but the friendship is not deep, and we were not familiar with it earlier..."

He paused for a moment and explained a little more:

"There is no similarity in terms of Taoist traditions. We just recognized each other before. That Yuezhou Island is close to the mountain gate of my home, and we are in urgent need of such a city to attract talents to fill our spiritual resources... That's why we have what we have today."

In and out of his words, he said don't ask Xuanyue to come and fight me. Li Minggong, who was above him, sighed for Kong Gumo in his heart and said softly:

"I see, what do the people in Fairy Mountain say? How do I need my family to cooperate?"

This was to ask him about his next arrangements. He might be driving people away. Shouding immediately became embarrassed and said vaguely:

"On the mountain...I hope I can stay in the sea for a while..."

After Shouding said this, he immediately started to defend himself and replied:

"This...doesn't bother the nobles. They have become abrupt these years. My real family has some friendship with the Chen family. I will go south to Tongmo County."

Li Jiangqian only heard these words and knew that this man was clumsy in speaking. He just wanted to go to the Chen family to ask for some things, but he wanted to say so much. Seeing how he didn't know anything about it, he sighed inwardly:

‘If you dare to go south, the Yuyang Chen family will not dare to take you in... It will scare the real person to the point where he will not be able to leave the seclusion in person, and he will have to be embarrassed when the time comes. ’

This was a favor in vain. The Chen family in Yuyang had a relationship with the Li family. When they snatched the Mingfang Tianshi and killed Wang Fu together, Li Jiangqian immediately sensed the benefit and said with a smile:

"I see that my Taoist friend has not recovered from his injuries, and there is no need to rush. You can let my guest Qing take a look at the injury first, and while you are editing the book, you can ask Mr. Chen. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

Shouding was a little at a loss, but Li Jiangqian couldn't resist Li Jiangqian's kindness, so he had no choice but to nod and go to look for Sun Bai. Li Minggong looked at him thoughtfully, and Li Jiangqian wrote two letters.

One was sent to Jingyishan, saying that Taoist Shouding wanted to visit the Chen family, but was temporarily stopped by the Li family. The other was to the Chen family, with similar remarks, saying, "I am here to inquire if I have any inconvenience."

He asked people to send him out quickly. He looked at Li Minggong and said with a smile:

"It's always good to be friendly with the forces of the Zi Mansion to avoid embarrassment when it comes to unnecessary favors. Mrs. Chen feels that her family won't do anything to stop her, which will cause embarrassment to both parties."

The two of them talked about Jiangbei's affairs, and waited until midnight when they suddenly noticed that the sky in the north was slightly brighter, and a tangled black and white light rushed into the sky with great force.

Although the light was too far away to identify any aura characteristics, the intertwined black and white appearance was exactly the same as the one in the token at that time. It didn't take much thinking to know that a treasure had appeared.

‘Master Zifu is different after all, he does things neatly! ’

Li Jiangqian stepped out of the palace, looked up for a while, listened, tightened his black robe, laughed twice, and ordered:

"Come here, prepare some gifts, and let's go meet this 'Secretary of Secret Pan' for a while!"

Qu Bushi came over quickly from the side, holding a jade plate in his hand and placing some spiritual objects. He followed closely beside him. The old man felt a little frightened in his heart:

‘I’m suffering from a plague... There really is some kind of token that can reach the sky. There is blood and blood and evil ways running rampant overseas. It is indeed fishy... In this sea, although it looks bright on the surface, it still has to be dirty...'
