Chapter 312 Chapter 311 Four Parties Pay Tribute to Xuan Xiaozi (Two Chapters in One)

Chapter 312 311. Four directions pay tribute to Xuan Xiaozi (two chapters in one)

Xiaoding is covered with green mountains and reaches the sky. It is surrounded by clouds all year round, as beautiful as a fairyland.

This time, Lei Jun came to the Shushan Sect’s mountain gate and ancestral home for the first time in his true appearance.

However, this fairyland on earth is actually very different from the past.

A civil war in the early years made Xiaoding suffer from war and was no longer high.

When Fu Dongsen and others broke with Shushan Sect and left a few years ago, it caused a great catastrophe that had not been seen for many years.

The treasure Qingxiao Mansion, which was almost integrated with the mountain gate and Xiaoding, broke away and escaped into the earth veins.

The Taiyi Xiantian Tower, which stood on Xiaoding all year round, also disappeared.

The movement up and down almost caused the entire Xiaoding to collapse and sink into the ground.

Xu Duan, Zhang Taigang and others who stayed here spent all their efforts to stabilize the mountain gate and ancestral home from collapsing completely.

After several years of recuperation, the flow of the earth veins under the Xiaoding has finally stabilized a little compared to before.

However, the environment of the fairyland on earth, which was once full of spiritual energy, is now obviously much worse than usual.

This requires Zhang Taigang and others to continue to persevere and recuperate for a long time before the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth here can be restored.

As for the fact that since then, the legendary Taiyi Xiantian Pagoda's shining light can no longer be seen on the Xiaoding, which makes the Shushan monks who are still here feel even more heartbroken.

Lei Jun had come to the Xiaoding before in the guise of Chen Donglou.

At this time, although the Xiaoding is not as beautiful as before, the flow of spiritual energy is at least more stable and peaceful than before.

The rolling behind him is human-like, well-behaved, and very polite.

The only difference is that the two small eyes are rolling around very flexibly.

Lei Jun and his apprentice followed Zhang Dongyuan and others to the foot of the Shushan Xiaoding.

When they got closer, Lei Jun looked calm on the surface, but he was worried in his heart.

The ground of Shushan is stable now.

But the deep underground qi veins are changing a lot.

It can be seen that Shushan is trying its best to seal it, but it seems that the changes in the ground veins will become more and more serious as time goes by.

Fortunately, it should be fine in the short term... Lei Jun thought to himself.

When he arrived at the mountain gate, there were two other people waiting.

They were He Dongxing and Ji Chuan.

After everyone greeted him, Zhang Dongyuan smiled and said, "I am busy preparing for the ceremony. I will go to Uncle Xu. Brother He will entertain Brother Lei from Tianshi Mansion."

He Dongxing: "Don't worry, Brother Zhang, I'm here."

Zhang Dongyuan said goodbye to Lei Jun and left.

He Dongxing, Ji Chuan and Lei Jun went to the guest house to rest.

With only a few of them, the atmosphere was much more relaxed than before.

Although He Dongxing was not young, he was carefree. At this time, he stroked his beard with a smile, and his eyes moved between Lei Jun and his disciples.

"Xuan Xiaozi has a connection with my Shu land!" the old Taoist said with a smile.

Lei Jun: "Coincidence, coincidence."

Ji Chuan turned his face to one side, his shoulders shaking slightly.

A certain furry little bear was very calm.

He had rarely gone down the mountain before, but he had heard some rumors outside Longhu Mountain.

Xuan Xiaozi of Tianshi Mansion is undoubtedly one of the most influential figures in the Tang Dynasty today.

In addition to his amazing talent and strong cultivation strength, there are also some anecdotes circulating.

For example, the three geniuses of the younger generation of Tianshi Mansion who shocked the entire Tang Dynasty, Lei Jun and the contemporary Tianshi Tang Xiaotang, were both introduced to Taoism by the older Xu Yuanzhen.

The fate and entanglement between them made countless people outside sigh that the fortune of Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion in recent years has really turned from bad to good.

Generally speaking, no matter the talisman school, the refining school, or the Danding school of Chunyang Palace, the Taoist inheritance has agreed that whoever guides the new disciple into Taoism is his master.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Lei Jun should be Xu Yuanzhen's disciple.

But because of Xu Yuanzhen's personal reasons, Lei Jun finally became a disciple of Yuan Mobai.

Well, his master is a panda who has already achieved enlightenment.

And then...

Zhuo Baojie is standing quietly behind Lei Jun at this moment.

As Lei Jun's only disciple, he is also a panda.

It is hard not to make outsiders secretly criticize this, is Master Lei also a panda?

Well, stop, stop, can't continue to think about it, respect the teacher, respect the teacher... A certain rolling face was serious, dignified and polite, but the eyebrows were bent in a very humane way.

"After attending the succession ceremony of Brother Zhang, I and my disciple intend to travel in Bashu."

Lei Jun turned to look at the disciple beside him, raised his hand and gently stroked his head. His usually calm face showed a bit of kindness: "I was born here, but since I followed me to Longhu Mountain to become a Taoist, I have never returned to Shu. This trip is a good opportunity to travel in my hometown. I hope you can tolerate me."

He Dongxing smiled and said, "Of course, you are welcome."

Ji Chuan also smiled: "If necessary, I can accompany you."

Lei Jun: "Then I will trouble Brother Ji again. Recalling the past, it was Brother Ji who guided me around Bashu. Now I am overjoyed to relive it."

The three of them talked happily.

Only a little bear looked at his master and felt very bad.

Master Lei Jun and his disciple stayed on the top of the sky, waiting for the arrival of the summer solstice.

Before the ceremony, in addition to He Dongxing and Ji Chuan who were specifically responsible for greeting him, and Zhang Dongyuan who had come out to greet him earlier, he also met several other high-ranking elders of Shushan one after another.

Among them are Zhang Taigang, who is about to take over as the new leader of Shushan, and Xu Duan, the most senior old man in Shushan.

"Congratulations, Brother Zhang." Lei Jun congratulated Zhang Taigang.

This Shushan sect's first young generation looks like he is only in his twenties or thirties, with a clear and handsome appearance, and a hint of bookishness.

Although he is wearing a Taoist robe, he looks more like a Confucian scholar.

However, this is a Taoist master who has reached the eighth level of the immortal realm of the Refining Sect.

Although he is not a sword cultivator, his famous natal magic weapon, the Emei Golden Seal, is very sharp when used in fighting, with a wide range of attacks and defenses.

In his daily dealings with people, Zhang Taigang appears to be gentle and polite, without any sharpness.

However, after Lei Jun personally came into contact with him, he could sense that under the other party's peace, he was also dignified and meticulous.

Speaking of which, as far as Lei Jun knows, in addition to the Emei Golden Seal, Zhang Taigang's natal magic weapon, one of his personal hobbies is seal carving and seal making.

"My sect is unfortunate, I am trying my best to do this, I am terrified, I just hope I will not let down the ancestors and my fellow disciples today."

Zhang Taigang and Lei Jun sat opposite each other as host and guest, and said slowly: "Five years ago, in the battle of Longhu Mountain, Lei Daoyou and your fellow Taoists defeated the Human Dao Kingdom and brought peace to the world. I have always admired you.

The Human Dao Kingdom still has remnants lurking in the dark, waiting for the moment to revive.

I hope that the three sects of our Taoism can continue to unite as before and help each other, so as to completely eliminate the evil brought by Huang Xuanpu, Fu Dongsen, Hong Jie, and Gu Han. hidden dangers."

Lei Jun: "Brother Dao is right. Our sect's wishes are completely consistent with your sect's."

He looked aside. In addition to Ji Chuan, there was also a female Taoist priest from the Tianshi Mansion wearing a crimson Taoist robe: "Although Junior Sister Guo will return to Longhu Mountain later, our sect has other fellow disciples to replace her in Shushan. Please take care of her then."

The red-robed female priest nodded to Zhang Taigang and Ji Chuan as a courtesy: "In the past few years, I have been very grateful to you two Taoist priests for your care."

Zhang Taigang and Ji Chuan even said that they did not deserve it.

The red-robed female priest was named Guo Yan. She was a disciple of the Tianshi Mansion who was ordained into the mansion with Lei Jun.

Before that, due to the threat of the Human Dao Kingdom, the Tianshi Mansion, Shushan Sect, and Chunyang Palace each sent disciples as representatives to the other two families so that they could contact each other as soon as possible and bring each other in for support when they encountered the threat of the Human Dao Kingdom.

Four or five years ago, during the Longhu Mountain War, Ji Chuan and Long Tao, representatives of Shushan Sect and Chunyang Palace stationed in Xinzhou, contacted their respective mountain gates for help.

Chunyang Palace was unable to squeeze out manpower to help Tianshi Mansion because the Northwest Rebellion was close at hand.

On the Shushan Sect side, Zhang Dongyuan personally rushed to Longhu Mountain with the Qingming Sword.

After the war, although the Human Dao Kingdom suffered a great defeat, Huang Xuanpu, Fu Dongsen, Hong Jie, and Gu Han all escaped.

Although they hibernated to lick their wounds, the threat after recuperation cannot be underestimated.

Therefore, the three major Taoist holy places have continued to maintain the previous arrangements in recent years, each leaving personnel in the other two.

On the Shushan Sect side, Ji Chuan was originally stationed in Longhu Mountain as a representative.

It was not until the past two years that Ji Chuan returned to Shushan due to personal cultivation, and Shushan Sect sent other disciples to Longhu Mountain to replace him and continue to stay in Longhu Mountain as representatives.

The representative of Tianshi Mansion stationed in Shushan before was Guo Yan.

However, due to her personal cultivation, Guo Yan will also return to Longhu Mountain later, and other disciples of Tianshi Mansion will take her place.

Zhang Taigang still had things to prepare for the succession ceremony, so after talking with Lei Jun for a while, he apologized and left.

As the helmsmen of the two holy places who are about to take over and have the potential to take over, the two do not need to talk in depth at the moment, as long as they roughly confirm their respective ideas and establish friendships.

Later, Lei Jun met another high-level elder who had just reached the eighth level of the heaven, Ye Dongming, who was born in the Ye clan of the former Jinzhou.

"How is Master Yuan Daoyou?" Ye Dongming asked with a smile.

Lei Jun: "My master is doing well, and I asked me to say hello to Elder Ye."

Ye Dongming: "Master, you are thoughtful."

He did not deal with Yuan Mobai as much as He Dongxing and Ji Dongquan.

But both sides had high opinions of each other.

Lei Jun remembered that his master had commented that Ye Dongming was an extraordinary person in his early years.

Now, this evaluation not only refers to his talent and cultivation, but also to his attitude between Shushan Sect and the Ye Clan of Jinzhou, which is extraordinary.

This is undoubtedly a blessing for Shushan Sect, which has suffered from unrest in recent years and has been seriously injured.

They really can't stand a new round of internal friction.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanxiao, I have something to ask you." Ye Dongming talked to Lei Jun, and the content was more in-depth: "I wonder if there has been any news about Brother Chen in recent years?"

"Elder Chen of your sect has not appeared for a long time, and our sect has no more news." Lei Jun remained calm.

It's not that Shushan Sect suspected him.

But Chen Donglou did not show up during the battle of Longhu Mountain, and Shushan Sect asked Tianshi Mansion to help keep an eye on his news since then.

Lei Jun: "The head sister and the eldest sister of our sect have been traveling abroad for the past few years, searching for the whereabouts of the remnants of the Taoist Kingdom, but they did not meet Elder Chen of your sect."

Ye Dongming nodded: "Thank you, Tianshi and Elder Xu of your sect."

Shushan is indeed very weak at the moment.

If Chen Donglou can really return, he may be able to sit on the position of head that he once longed for.

Even Zhang Taigang himself would be very happy to give up his position.

It is true that Chen Donglou has disappeared again, and Zhang Taigang has to take over.

But then again, given Chen Donglou's temperament, if he were still alive, whether he would return to Shushan or not is another matter, but he might not necessarily take over the position of the headmaster under such circumstances.

Lei Jun naturally had no intention of using Chen Donglou's identity to come to Shushan to cheat others of the headmaster's throne.

Let alone whether his identity would be exposed, he temporarily pretended to be Chen Donglou's identity in order to deal with the threat from the Human Dao Kingdom.

He would not publicly appear as Chen Donglou to kill people outside the Human Dao Kingdom, so as to avoid the Taoist priests being able to escape but the temple being unable to escape, thus implicating the Shushan Sect.

Therefore, apart from congratulating Zhang Taigang today, Lei Jun had no other thoughts.

"I hope Senior Brother Chen can return soon." Ye Dongming sighed.

Lei Jun: "I will also help to pay attention to relevant clues and news when I am out."

Ye Dongming: "In that case, I thank you in advance."

The two chatted for a while, and Ye Dongming said goodbye and left.

He did not return to his residence, but went to another cave on the top of the sky.

Xu Duan, the Grand Elder of Shushan, invited him in and took a seat.

Ye Dongming shook his head: "There is still no news about Senior Brother Chen."

Xu Duan: "There has been no news about Junior Brother Chen for many years. Let's relax for now. Let's maintain our sect and rest quietly."

Ye Dongming: "Yes."

Having said that, both of them looked uneasy.

Secretly, the threat from the Human Dao Kingdom has not been completely eliminated.

On the surface, although the Jingxiang Fang clan has made few moves recently, the Xumi Vajra tribe in the western region is a behemoth that Shushan has to pay attention to.

In recent years, the other party has been more low-key in the Tang Dynasty and seems harmless.

But located in the west, Shushan Sect heard the wind that the Xumi Vajra tribe has recently tended to go deep into the snowy plateau.

The snow-capped mountains in western Sichuan are connected to the snowy plateau, so Shushan Sect is naturally sensitive.

Unfortunately, they are currently seriously injured and cannot take any countermeasures. They can only wait and see while trying to accumulate their own strength and restore their vitality.

But how easy is it?

At least in the short term, it is extremely difficult.

The situation has been peaceful for the past two years. If it could continue, it would be fine, but the world and the times have been constantly changing.

"Uncle, the changes in the ground veins under the top of the sky seem to be more frequent than before." Ye Dongming said softly.

Xu Duan frowned: "Well, the old Taoist also felt it."

He sighed.

The Taiyi Xiantian Tower and Qingxiao Mansion left the top of the sky at the same time, which caused too much turbulence in the ground veins.

Yes, Taiyi Xiantian Tower and Qingxiao Mansion have not existed since the founding of Shushan.

But after so many years of sacrifice and refinement, they are in line with the ground veins of Shushan. The sudden change in one day will naturally have a great impact.

Especially now, the impact is even greater than expected.

It also brings many unexpected changes.

"Uncle Master..." Ye Dongming's expression was much more serious than before: "Is that... the breath of Huangquan?"

Xu Duan's expression was solemn: "I think... yes."

Ye Dongming lowered his head slightly and looked down: "Then I think it's better to seal it."

Xu Duan did not respond immediately, and looked out the window.

After a long time, he retracted his gaze: "Well, our sect is indeed in urgent need of an opportunity to recover its vitality, but Huangquan is different from Kunlun and Penglai, and may contain strange dangers. The current foundation of our sect cannot afford the risk of losing the gamble, and the leader means the same."

Ye Dongming nodded silently.

…………………

Under Shushan, undercurrents surged.

On the ground of Shushan, as the summer solstice approached, more guests arrived at Shushan.

The Shushan Sect's new leader's succession ceremony is about to begin.

This matter is important, and representatives from all parties are basically present to congratulate, and the court has also expressed its views.

Even the Jingxiang Fang clan, which has improved relations with the Tang court and the Shushan Sect in recent years, also has representatives present.

The second most important person in the clan, the eldest master Fang Huansheng, was present in person.

"My ninth brother has been studying in seclusion since this winter. I cannot come to congratulate you in person this time. Please forgive me, Taoist priests." Fang Huansheng said.

Zhang Taigang: "You two Fangs are too polite. Our sect has received a lot of help from the Jingxiang Fang clan. I am grateful."

In the war that directly caused the great split of the Shushan Sect, Fang Jingsheng, the clan leader of the Jingxiang Fang clan, was ordered by the empress to participate in the war, and he joined hands with Xu Duan, Chu Yu, Zhang Dongyuan, Zhang Taigang and others to force Fu Dongsen, Hong Jie and Wei Qiyue to retreat.

The Shushan Sect is serious about remembering favors, and naturally it is still the empress.

But at this moment, Fang Huansheng came to congratulate, and Zhang Taigang, Xu Duan and others naturally would not lack courtesy.

They asked Fang Huansheng and other members of the Fang clan to take a seat.

Fang Huansheng met the representative of the Tang court imperial family, who was Xiang Wang Zhang Luo who had just returned from the Southern Wilderness two years ago.

Jingxiang and Xiang were facing each other from a distance. They were not strangers and often dealt with each other.

Now that they met, they naturally exchanged some pleasantries.

After a while, the two of them found that they could not help but look at the same place from the corner of their eyes.

There, a tall and slender Taoist priest in purple robe had already taken a seat.

Feeling the sight of the two, the young Taoist priest in purple robe turned his head to look.

Xiang Wang Zhang Luo smiled and nodded as a greeting: "Since we parted in the South Wilderness, Taoist priest, how are you?"

Fang Huansheng also made the same gesture: "Master Lei, I am here to greet you, Fang Huansheng of Jingxiang."

Lei Jun returned the greeting: "Your Highness Xiang Wang, Mr. Fang."

Guests came and went on the top of the sky. Representatives from Chunyang Palace, one of the three holy places of Taoism, along with Tianshi Mansion and Shushan Sect, also came.

It was Jiang Yu.

Chunyang Palace is currently more short of people than Shushan Sect, and neither Lu Jinduan nor Wang Xuan can leave.

Although Jiang Yu is young, he already plays a very important role in Chunyang Palace today.

Now Yue Xiling does not have to stay behind closed doors, but in order to avoid suspicion, he does not take up a post in Chunyang Palace. Instead, he goes directly to the front of Chang'an Lord. As the representative of Chunyang Palace in Chang'an, he directly delivers himself under the eyes of the Queen. Show innocence.

Chunyang Palace experienced serious civil strife, and Jiang Yu was not only the only remaining genius disciple of the younger generation, but he was not far behind.

Lu Jinduan and Wang Xuan hoped that she could meditate, but some experience had to be added to her first.

Fortunately, although Jiang Yu himself has a relatively cold temperament, he gets into the role very quickly.

"Brother Xuanxiao, Taoist." After Jiang Yu and everyone from the Shushan sect had seen the ceremony, he came to see Lei Jun and wanted to give him a Taoist apology first.

After Lei Jun returned the gift, she said: "Brother Taoist, our sect is celebrating the ordination ceremony this year. We sincerely invite fellow Taoists from your sect to attend the ceremony. The post has been sent to Longhu Mountain. I happened to meet Brother Taoist at Xiaoding today. Please forgive me for being such a poor Taoist." I'm sorry, I wonder if I would like to visit Zhongnan Mountain as a guest?"

In this world's Taoist sect's inheritance, the Fulu Sect has the transmission and conferring rituals, while the Danding Sect has the crown scarf and the transmission of precepts.

The former was awarded a urn from the ancestral altar and was named Deng Tian Cao.

The latter is registered and receives the three great ordination orders.

Prior to this, there was a crown scarf, also known as a small ordination, opposite to the Fulu sect.

Unlike the Tianshi Mansion's transmission ceremony, which normally takes place every three years, the Chunyang Palace's crown scarf has no fixed time and no large-scale ceremony.

Anyone who wants to follow the Tao must be introduced to the Chunyang Palace to become a Taoist boy and start the most basic learning. When everyone reaches the age of eighteen, if they meet the relevant standards, they can pass the ceremony of crowning and scarf and officially become a Chunyang disciple. , also known as Guanjin Taoist priest.

Those who cannot pass will be relocated.

The subsequent ordination ceremony is the same as the enshrinement ceremony of Tianshi Mansion, which takes place every six years.

Those who meet the relevant standards are eligible to participate in the ordination.

However, the time of Chunyang Palace's ordination ceremony is not completely fixed.

Taoist three-element festivals are acceptable, but they must be connected with two elements.

For example, the Chunyang Palace issued a list of precepts and precepts on the Shangyuan Festival, and the precepts were officially opened on the Hungry Ghost Festival that year.

If the list of precepts and precepts is issued on the Hungry Ghost Festival, the altar and precepts will be performed on the Xiayuan Festival.

On the Xiayuan Festival of that year, a list of precepts and precepts was issued, and on the Shangyuan Festival of the following year, the altar was opened to perform the precepts.

This year, Chunyang Palace will release the ceremony during the Lantern Festival, so the ceremony will be officially opened during the Ghost Festival.

It is also at that time that the guests are polite.

There are still about two months until the current summer solstice.

"If there is an opportunity for the grand event of the noble sect, I would naturally hope to participate in the grand event."

Lei Junyan said: "However, Rong Pindao will contact the mountain gate for a while before giving a reply to fellow Taoist Jiang."

Jiang Yu: "Of course."

Later, she also extended an invitation to Shushan.

On the Shushan side, Zhang Taigang has newly taken over as the leader. He has many things to do and naturally has no time to go there. Xu Duan is getting older and should avoid the pain of running around.

However, they have decided that a high-level elder in the eighth heaven realm will go to Zhongnan Mountain to observe the ceremony. It just depends on whether it will be Zhang Dongyuan or Ye Dongming.

In terms of etiquette, Zhang Luo, Fang Huansheng and others also received invitations from Chunyang Palace, and naturally responded positively.

On the other hand, there was a positive responder, Suoyang, the young abbot of Vajra Temple who comes from Buddhism in the Western Regions.

The strength of the Sumeru Vajra Tribe makes the Shushan Sect fearful, but there has been no conflict between the two sides for the time being.

Regardless of etiquette or other considerations, the Shushan Sect will invite the other party to come and watch the ceremony.

Perhaps in order to prevent the Sumeru Vajra Division from giving a more powerful impression to the outside world, the person from the Western Region Buddhist Sect who came to watch the ceremony this time was Suoyang, who is in the seventh heaven realm. His cultivation level is not that eye-catching, but as the abbot of the Vajra Temple, his status is sufficient. .

Suo Yang felt no pressure when dealing with other forces and Zhang Taigang, Jiang Yu and others who were high-level members of the Taoist sect.

But he actually has a headache too.

Facing Lei Jun from Tianshi Mansion.

Taoist Master Lei showed no harsh words, his expression was as usual, his face was as flat as a lake:

"Eminent monks of Vajra Temple, if you find the Celestial Master's robe of our sect, please collect it on your behalf and help our sect recover the Celestial Master's robe. The entire sect will express my deep gratitude to you."

Suo Yang already knows this sentence by heart.

The Tianshi Mansion has contacted the Buddhist sects of the Western Regions many times regarding this matter, and the Tang Dynasty imperial family also acted as mediators.

But listening to other Tianshi Mansion representatives including Zhang Jingzhen say this, Suo Yang has never been put under such great pressure.

Even though Lei Jun's tone was always calm and neither anxious nor angry, Suo Yang felt suffocated.

The feeling of oppression is completely unmatched by ordinary people.

However, where can Suo Yang go to transform a Heavenly Master's robe into the Heavenly Master's Mansion?

He now wished he could avoid Lei Jun and other Taoist priests from Tianshi Mansion.

However, in the current situation, Suo Yang would not be rude, but looked solemn: "Priest Xuanxiao, please rest assured that our sect will do its best to search for Hong Jie's whereabouts and help your sect find the Tianshi robe."

"...I hope there will be good news as soon as possible." Lei Jun stared at Suo Yang quietly for a moment before speaking.

Suo Yang sighed in his heart, with a solemn look on his face, and saluted Lei Jun with his palms clasped together: "Everyone in our sect hopes to work hand in hand with your sect."

Lei Jun: "I hope so too."

The Shushan Sect's grand ceremony went on as scheduled.

Master Lei Jun and his disciples then watched the ceremony with peace of mind.

To be honest, the ceremony for Zhang Taigang to take over as the leader had some flaws.

As everyone knows, the Shushan Sect in the Tang Dynasty has six great treasures, all of which are famous in the Tang Dynasty.

But generally speaking, not all of these six treasures are controlled by the head of Shushan alone.

Most of the time, there are two people who are directly in charge of the head for a long time.

That is, Taiyi Xiantian Tower and Qingxiao Mansion.

The former is the number one treasure of Shushan, and the latter is almost merged with the foundation of Shushan sect.

These two treasures are not necessarily the status symbol of the leader of the Shushan Sect, but most of the time seeing the treasure is like seeing a person.

But what is more embarrassing is that currently these two magic weapons are not in Shushan.

Well...thank you that the Shushan Sect's ancestral mausoleum forbidden area is still on the mountain and did not leave with the Qingxiao Mansion, otherwise it would be hard to tell who is the Shushan orthodoxy.

But according to Lei Jun's knowledge, even without the two treasures of Shang and Xia, Shushan Sect is still preparing to establish a new leader.

As expected, what the Shushan Sect expressed was more about finding the upper and lower treasures in order to inspire the spirit of its disciples.

Huansheng's gaze swept over the ceremony.

Suoyang has good talent and strength, but he cannot represent the level of the young leaders of the Sumeru Vajra Division.

Although he quickly ascended to the seventh heaven realm due to the initiation and secret method, his advancement speed has slowed down since then, and the future will depend more on himself.

But Lei Jun, Zhang Taigang, and Jiang Yu are different.

These are all outstanding talents of the younger generation of the Tang Tao Sect.

But among them, Xuan Xiaozi Lei Jun was even better.

Not to mention that Jiang Yushang was young. If she were the same age as Lei Jun, she would probably be overshadowed by Lei Jun.

Even Yuexiling is not as good as Lei Jun.

There is no doubt that Zhang Taigang of the Shushan sect is the proud son of heaven. He took over the Shushan sect at a young age and became another extremely young leader of a powerful force after Yuan Mi, Tang Xiaotang, and Xiao Hang.

But in fact, in Fang Huansheng's view, Zhang Taigang would be outclassed compared to Lei Jun of Tianshi Mansion.

He believes this is not just his opinion.

Fortunately, due to the various turmoils in the Taoist kingdom in the world and itself, the three holy places of Taoism are now more closely connected, and Lei Jun's visit is more supportive and supportive.

Otherwise, in the past peaceful years, at the ceremony where Zhang Taigang took over the Shushan Gate, Lei Jun would have attracted more attention than him, and he would have seemed to dominate the ceremony.

I have to sigh again, Longhu Mountain has stepped out of the trough. There are two young and powerful talents like Lei Jun in the Tianshi Mansion... Fang Huansheng's face is normal, but he is sighing in his heart.

Although the Jingxiang Fang Clan has now reconciled with the forces represented by the Tang imperial family, they are now sandwiched between Shushan and Longhushan upstream and downstream of the river.

Just as Fang Huansheng was thinking this, he suddenly turned his eyes and looked at the few young disciples of the Fang clan who were following him.

The original intention of bringing them here is to hope that they will increase their experience and experience and be tested.

But now it seems that they did see an insightful scene, but their ideas were completely wrong.

The few Fang clan disciples were looking at a rather special figure in the crowd of spectators.

One looked a bit short and fat, wearing a dark red robe, but with black and white fur peeking out from the collar and cuffs, and he had a big head on his head.

It is Zhuo Baojie.

Several young people from the Fang tribe looked at Zhuo Baojie, then looked at each other and winked at each other.

Because a grand ceremony was being held, these people tried to keep their expressions solemn, but they could not hide the smiles in their eyes.

It wasn't until Fang Huansheng glanced at them calmly that they quickly restrained themselves.

After leaving the scene after the ceremony, Fang Huansheng asked, "What happened just now?"

A young man quickly replied: "Uncle, we didn't say anything. We just looked at that mountain wildflower wearing a monk's robe, and suddenly we couldn't help laughing."

Fang Huansheng had no expression on his face and asked as he walked: "What's so funny about it?"

The other party explained: "My nephew was reading a book earlier and saw the phrase 'monkey wearing a crown'. Just now he saw the mountain birch, and suddenly felt that the phrase was really vivid."

He looked at the other people. Everyone obviously had the same idea. At this time, they all nodded in agreement, and some even laughed out loud.

"He's better than many of you."

Fang Huansheng said calmly: "Besides, have you forgotten his master Yu Liyuan Mobai?"

When the Fang clan disciples heard this, they looked at each other in shock.

Fang Huansheng: "Even if there is no Yu Li, as long as his master is Xuan Xiaozi Lei Chongyun, then..."

He stopped, turned around, and said calmly: "Even if you don't like him, on the whole, you must give him the respect he deserves. You can disrespect him, but you must respect the cultivation strength of his master Xuan Xiaozi."

"Uncle is teaching you a lesson." All the Fang clan disciples bowed their heads upon hearing this.

Fang Huansheng: "All of them will be punished."

Everyone: "Yes, uncle."

After the ceremony, while the disciples of the Fang clan were being punished, Master Lei Jun and his disciples said goodbye and left Xiaoding, traveling around the land of Bashu.

Ji Chuan once again served as Lei Jun's guide.

On the way, Zhuo Baojie finally understood why Master was so kind on the top of the sky that day.

No matter on the mountain or down the mountain, in front of Ji Chuan, Lei Jun praised his eldest disciple so much that he was as good as a young man, mature, diligent, conscientious, clean and self-disciplined.

The result was that in front of Ji Chuan, a certain little bear looked at the bamboo sea in southern Sichuan, secretly drooling like a river.

But the master didn't give him any chance to beat his teeth.

To be fair, a certain Gungun deserves the praise of his master most of the time.

The only thing he couldn't do was the desire for food and drink.

Then, after a trip to Bashu, Taoist priest Xiao Zhuo almost collapsed after eating light tea and light meals.

"Do you know what's wrong?" Lei Jun played with the two furry buds on his apprentice's head with both hands.

Disciple: "Because Master is narrow-minded... No, it's because I violated the way of being a disciple and disrespected my teacher. Please punish me, Master."

Lei Jun: "It's great to know your mistakes and improve. Okay, go find food by yourself. If you were caught by Brother Ji Dao, it's your own carelessness. You still have to pay attention to your external image."

"Yes, Master!" Zhuo Baojie cheered.

Without Lei Jun to care about him, he slipped into the bamboo sea in the next moment.

He didn't care about returning home in glory, but he cared about the taste of his hometown.

Lei Jun saw with his own eyes that his eldest disciple's chubby figure jumped into the bamboo forest in a nearly standard fish-in-water posture.

He couldn't help but smile when he saw it.

"Where is friend Huajie?"

Later, Ji Chuan came from the other side and asked curiously.

Lei Jun said calmly: "The little guy returned to his hometown and felt something in his heart. I ordered him to go into the bamboo forest to meditate and breathe in the essence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

Ji Chuan looked back at the depths of the bamboo forest.

Lei Jun said, "Later, my master and I will leave Bashu and head north. I am sorry to bother you this time."

Ji Chuan: "What are you talking about? Come here, our sect welcomes you.

If you go north, will you be the representative of your sect to go to Zhongnan Mountain to watch the ceremony?"

Lei Jun nodded: "Yes."

Earlier, Yuan Mobai and others were in contact. Yuan Mobai asked Lei Jun what he thought. Lei Jun's cultivation level is getting higher now. His goal of traveling around the world to see all kinds of wonderful scenery and various cultivation methods can be gradually put on the agenda.

Since he has come out and has enough time, he will go to Chunyang Palace.

"When are you going to leave?" Ji Chuan asked again: "I will take you out of Shu."

Lei Jun smiled and said, "Brother Dao is too polite. There is no need to trouble you."

As for the time and date...

Lei Jun was about to answer, but unexpectedly, a ball of light flashed in his mind, and then words emerged from it:

[The earth is turning and the sky is shaking, the Wangchuan River is surging, dragons and snakes are rising from the land, and the north and the south are dancing together. 】

Following this, there are three fortunes:

[Middle-high fortune, at noon on the tenth day of June, go to Bailu Peak, Jiange, north of Xiaoding, and have a chance to get a third-grade opportunity. There will be some storms, but you can calm down with caution. There may be causal entanglements later, so you should be careful. Good luck. 】

[Middle-high fortune, at noon on the tenth day of June, go to the main peak of Xiaoding, and have a chance to get a fifth-grade opportunity. There will be some storms, but you can calm down with caution. There may be causal entanglements later, so you should be careful. Peace. 】

[Middle-high fortune, at noon on the tenth day of June, go to places other than Xiaoding and Bailu Peak, and you will gain nothing extra, and lose nothing. Peace. 】

The first thing Lei Jun noticed was the four words "Forgetful River Tide".

The Yellow Spring in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths... he thought to himself.

No wonder when he arrived at Xiaoding before, he vaguely felt that the underground Qi and veins were a bit strange.

At that time, because of the repeated suppression of a group of masters from the Shushan School, he did not go underground to look for it, so he was still a little confused.

Now, comparing the fortune, it turns out that it has landed here.

Fortunately, judging from the fortune, and comparing it with the fact that Shushan Sect currently has three or four eighth-level masters and the three great treasures of Beiming Divine Spear, Nanming Lihuo Cauldron and Qingming Sword, this matter should be safe and sound for Shushan Sect and can be handled.

On the other hand, Jiange Bailu Peak... Lei Jun recalled the map he had seen.

Will Huangquan Wangchuan surge in two places at the same time?
