Chapter 1724 Three Chances in Life
"I've seen the Lord City Master!" Li Zongbao and the others moved, looking at the wine glasses in their hands with some lingering fear, put them on the table, and bowed to salute Qingliuzi.レm♠Thinking♥Road♣Guestレ
"Get up!" Qingliuzi raised his hand with a smile and stopped the four people from saluting, "I didn't plan to come over, but just now I was dealing with the city affairs and felt a little restless, so I came here to have a look, I didn't expect... ...It's true that the four little friends are deeply blessed and lucky, if the old man hadn't come here, although this addicted chūn would not really kill the four little friends, it would also make you suffer a lot!"
"Nephew Li, Nephew Cai, and the two nephews Xiao!" Chen Yuming smiled wryly, "It's all the old man's fault. I was greedy and wanted to drag the four nephews as backs. Fortunately, the city lord came over in time, so nothing happened." It was a big mistake. Please forgive me, senior nephews."
"It's okay~" What else can Li Zongbao say, after all, it was the Golden Core cultivator who apologized, and there was still a Nascent Soul standing in front of him, so he could only wave his hands and say, "Tasting this fine wine was originally the intention of Senior Chen to support me, and the city lord would like to give it a try." Having said that, those who do not know are not guilty, and the juniors and others dare not blame the seniors!"
Xiao Hua and others naturally answered in the same way.
Seeing this, Qingliuzi said calmly: "Yu Ming, you go down first, and think about your mistakes carefully. These four friends and old men received them personally!"
"Yes~" Chen Yuming looked very ashamed, and after cupping his hands at the four of them, he walked out of the hall quickly. And his expression of shame changed to bewilderment before he left in front of the temple gate!
However, he didn't stop in front of the palace gate at all, and turned to the left quickly, just like coming out of the Jingtai Pavilion just now, and walked towards a palace of the same size not far away.
Walking to the gate of the palace, Chen Yuming flicked his sleeves, and the gate opened silently, but he saw that this palace was very similar to Jingtai Pavilion, they were all empty, and in the center of the palace, there was a stamen-like The jade platform stands there alone, on which is the Chen Yi whom Chen Yuming saw earlier.
"Villa Master..." Chen Yuming saw Chen Yi, and asked a little strangely, "What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd, Lord City Master?"
"Oh... Yuming, don't say you don't know!" Chen Yi also had a helpless face, and said with a wry smile, "Even I... am at a loss!"
"Huh? The owner doesn't even know?" Chen Yuming was even more stunned.
"Yeah, just now, the Lord City Lord suddenly appeared here, only asked a few words, and then disappeared immediately!" Chen Yi bit her red lips slightly and said unwillingly, "Besides, he warned me before leaving, From now on... don't have any disagreements with these four people!"
But having said that,
Chen Yi pursed her lips again and said with a smile: "I just acted on the orders of the city lord, why should I have any objections to them?"
How could Chen Yuming not know Chen Yi's character? Knowing that there must be something hidden in it. However, he didn't ask too much, and smiled slightly, saying: "Since the owner of the villa doesn't know the reason, then I don't need to ask any more questions! Fortunately, the city owner appeared in time! If it is a little later, the subordinate I'm afraid that the city lord will cause trouble! Well, it's a loss..."
Chen Yuming was about to tell about Chunkui's interrogation, but Chen Yi raised her brows and said, "Actually, it's easy to know the reason!"
"Oh?" Interrupted by Chen Yi's pretentiousness, Chen Yuming stopped mentioning Chunkui, and said strangely, "The owner knows something?"
I have to say that good people are rewarded! Chun Kui was grateful for Xiao Hua's life-saving grace that day, and reminded Xiao Hua desperately decades later, although it didn't really work. But if Chen Yi found out about this move, with Chen Yi's thoughts, how could Chunkui still have a chance of survival? Chen Yuming only thought that Chunkui was really looking for Qiuzan, and Chunkui's summons did help him a bit. Now that he didn't mention it in front of Chen Yi, he naturally helped Chunkui avoid disaster.
"When I came over from the city lord, the city lord just received a message talisman! He actually went out to greet him in person, he must be a distinguished guest!" Chen Yi said with a smile, "I just need to know who came to Tongmu City. Do you know what made the city lord change his mind?"
"This..." Chen Yuming hesitated, and said in a low voice, "This is the city lord's business. It's not appropriate for me to inquire further, right?"
"The City Lord's business is my business!" Chen Yi was unhappy, and said coldly, "Why can't I inquire?"
Hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen Yuming was shocked. He hurriedly looked around, and said in a low voice, "Master! You...you must remember your identity. You...are not the wife of the city owner! And, even You are always the wife of the city lord... You must never interfere with the affairs of the lord of the city! Although the subordinates are biased towards the lord, but in Tongmu City, the subordinates are still the lord's subordinates..."
"Ah~" Chen Yi sighed resentfully, looking at the door of the main hall, "I don't know how much I have given up as the city lord, but... But now, I can't walk into Tongmu City in a dignified way. City Lord's Mansion..."
"Who said that? The owner of the village knows what the owner of the city has done for the city owner. It is what he has done for my Taoist sect. The poor Taoist is also clear. The first one will not let the city lord go!" A refined voice came from outside the palace gate very abruptly.
"Who..." Chen Yi and Chen Yuming were shocked. Idlers in the city lord's mansion are absolutely not allowed to enter, and the city guards and maidservants dare not wait outside the palace gate for a long time, so they are also a little careless. Although there was nothing disobedient in what the two said, how could they not be surprised if they were suddenly heard by others.
"Hey, it's a poor way of course!" The voice came as the palace door slowly opened, and a refined monk in the middle stage of foundation establishment slowly walked in...
Inside the Jingtai Pavilion, the atmosphere is completely different from before.
Previously, Chen Yuming was a Jindan cultivator after all, and his identity was only the deacon of the meeting hall. Li Zongbao and others may not have any pressure on this person! After all, although Li Zongbao is only in the late stage of foundation establishment, he can set foot on the golden core at any time, and after this battle, Li Zongbao's status in the Bliss Sect will be greatly increased. Compared with Li Zongbao, Chen Yuming is really nothing! Li Zongbao can talk to Chen Yuming casually, with a little respect.
But facing Qingliuzi, Li Zongbao and others dare not even sit down!
This is a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul! A master who can kill himself with a single gesture!
Even Xiao Hua, facing the coercion faintly released by Qingliuzi, was trembling in his heart, standing there respectfully, his previous thoughts of laughing at other people's character had long since gone beyond the sky!
"You guys don't have to be cautious!" Qingliuzi sat down with a smile, and waved his hand, "Sit down!"
"Juniors don't dare!" Li Zongbao and others didn't dare to sit down, and said respectfully, "Where is there a seat for juniors and others before Senior Yuan Ying? Senior, please tell me anything!"
"Hehe~" Qingliuzi was very satisfied with Li Zongbao's respect, and said with a smile, "You are my hero in this Dao sword battle! Just now Deacon Chen took you to see my meeting hall in Tongmu City. You wait My prestige in Tongmu City is comparable to that of this old man!"
"Don't dare!" Li Zongbao smiled apologetically, "The juniors and others just said clearly in the meeting hall that the juniors and others are nothing but foundation-building disciples, and all the credits are obtained by standing on the shoulders of the seniors! And these credits are all The blood of the seniors was exchanged, and the juniors and others got it for nothing, and they already feel guilty in their hearts. If they are spread by many fellow Taoists to magnify these credits, it will be even more of a crime for the juniors and others!"
Speaking of this, Li Zongbao felt another "thump" in his heart, realized his slip of the tongue, and hastily corrected him: "Of course, Tongmucheng set up a meeting hall here to promote the righteousness of my Dao Sect and encourage the monks of my Dao Sect. Morale, such a feat has been observed in dozens of major cities in the Three Kingdoms of Cultivation, and I am afraid that few city lords have this insight!"
"Hahaha!" Qingliuzi laughed, pointed at Li Zongbao and said, "Everyone says that Li Zongbao of the Bliss Sect is the number one person under the Golden Core, and he is a model for all the low-level monks in my cultivation of the Three Kingdoms. That's it! The Bliss School is really happy to have you, Li Zongbao!"
"Students should not deserve such ridiculous praise!" Li Zongbao said neither arrogant nor humble, "This junior just walks his own way and does his own thing. Moreover, there are many handsome men in this world, who are much stronger than the younger generation in terms of aptitude and strength. It's just that they don't show the mountains and don't show the water, so others can't see it! The younger generation is just a false name, compared with others, they are nothing but mud!"
Li Zongbao said this from the bottom of his heart, the gap between him and Xiao Hua is indeed the case!
However, Xiao Hua lowered his head and stood next to Li Zongbao's right hand, extremely respectful, how could he see the slightest clue?
"Aptitude is one thing, and being a person is another!" Qingliuzi nodded, "And the road to cultivation is not smooth, and the corresponding spirit stones, exercises, and opportunities are all indispensable! From the perspective of the old man’s cultivation, the latter seems to be more important than the former! If you have an opportunity, you must grasp it. In a monk’s life, you will have three opportunities. The first time is because you have no experience and are not I never noticed it, and I will definitely regret it when I think about it later! The second chance is a good opportunity for monks to rise up, but in the same way, there are too many monks who are not prepared, or avoid and lose, thus losing their progress. A high-level chance! As for the third time, it is the mercy of heaven. It will give you the last chance at the end of your life. If the monks who lost the first two chances can seize this last chance, they may not be able to make a comeback , rewritten the path of cultivation!"
"Yes, what senior said is very true!" Li Zongbao was a little puzzled, he didn't understand how he and others could afford to receive this Qingliuzi in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he was even more puzzled why he said such a thing. (To be continued.)
