Chapter 734 Shi Qingxuan (Part 1)
"Because the sky has changed." The middle-aged Taoist priest suddenly sighed deeply, then immediately stood up and walked out of the pavilion.
"How is this possible?" The young Taoist priest shouted in shock.
"Yes, how is it possible? By the way, has anything major happened in the world recently?" The middle-aged Taoist priest asked casually after calming down.
"Zhai Rang and Li Mi of Wagang Village have fallen out, and now the Wagang Army is divided into two. By the way, Master, does our Taoism have a hidden Tianzong?" The young Taoist priest roughly talked about the recent changes in the Wagang Army, and then asked.
"Taoist hidden Tianzong, what is this?" The middle-aged Taoist priest looked at his disciple with a puzzled look.
"It was the people of the Li family who sent people to ask." The young Taoist priest immediately told all the things he knew about the Taoist Tianzong.
"In the pre-Qin era, how is this possible? Let's go." The middle-aged Taoist priest said and walked directly out of the bamboo forest, and the young Taoist priest followed closely behind him, and the two soon arrived at the hall of the Taoist temple.
"Master Yuan." The middle-aged man who was looking at the statues around him in the hall immediately clasped his hands and saluted respectfully when he saw the middle-aged Taoist priest.
"It turned out to be Lord Li." After greeting him, the middle-aged Taoist priest immediately asked, "I heard Chunfeng talk about the Taoist Tianzong before. I wonder what the specific situation is?"
"My elder brother once asked me to ask the Taoist priest whether the Taoist Tianzong is true or false." The middle-aged man immediately told the story of the Taoist Tianzong, which was much more detailed than what the young Taoist priest said before, and for some reason, the meaning of his words was that the split of Wagangzhai was also attributed to the Taoist Tianzong.
"Well, my Taoism has a long history. To be honest, I don't know whether there is really a hidden Tianzong." The middle-aged Taoist priest said without comment.
"Is that so? I wonder what Master Yuan is thinking now?" When the middle-aged man spoke, his eyes were fixed on the middle-aged Taoist priest.
"The time is not right." The middle-aged Taoist priest said with an unfathomable smile.
"So that's how it is. Goodbye." The middle-aged man turned around and left.
"Master, this hidden Taoist sect is really ours." After the middle-aged man left, the young Taoist priest hurriedly asked.
"Where did the hidden Taoist sect come from? If it really exists, do you think I don't know about it? But this is a bit strange. Go pack up your things and go see Senior Sun. Maybe he will know something."
"Yes, Master." The young Taoist priest turned around and left the hall immediately.
"Taoist sect, evil emperor Xiang Yutian, pass the order to let Qian Qian contact him."
"Taoist sect, evil emperor Xiang Yutian, notify Fei Xuan and let her contact him."
When the Taoist sect took action because of the Taoist sect, the Demon Sect and Cihang Jingzhai also took action respectively. What's interesting is that the orders issued by the leaders of these two sects are actually similar. They are really old enemies.
If Qianqian and Shi Feixuan are destined opponents, then Zhu Yuyan and Fan Qinghui are old enemies. The reason why they are not destined opponents is that Zhu Yuyan's destined opponent is not Fan Qinghui, but Bi Xiuxin.
Speaking of which, it is a bit strange. According to the rules of Cihang Jingzhai, there is only one person walking in the world in each generation, but for some reason, Fan Qinghui also appeared in Bi Xiuxin's era.
"You are not suitable for using a knife. You should practice sword. Tai Chi also has sword moves." After watching Xu Ziling waving the steel knife in his hand again, Shen Fei couldn't bear it anymore. He took the steel knife in his hand and melted it into a steel sword.
Strictly speaking, for Xu Ziling, weapons don't matter. For him, the body is a weapon. In the original book, Xu Ziling hardly used weapons later.
However, for Shen Fei, perhaps it was an idea in his mind that Xu Ziling was much more handsome when using a sword, and there was not much difference between Tai Chi and Tai Chi sword, of course, forget about Tai Chi sword.
"Okay, Tao Te Ching, you have memorized it, and next, we should leave this place."
Because Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling learned things very quickly, Shen Fei stayed for another day after thinking about it, and then taught Xu Ziling the Tao Te Ching. Although the Tao Te Ching was not a secret, it was widely circulated even in this era, but it was a pity that Xu Ziling had no channels to contact it because he was a gangster.
Now that Shen Fei took this out, it can be said that Xu Ziling had no chance of becoming a monk guardian. The Tao Te Ching is profound and profound. The higher the understanding, the more you understand how terrifying the truth contained in the Tao Te Ching is.
Xu Ziling loves the Tao Te Ching very much, and he can memorize it just once. In contrast, Kou Zhong felt a little drowsy after just hearing the beginning.
"Let me show you how the temple works first." As the saying goes, seeing is worse than seeing. After leaving the valley, Shen Fei did not leave Shuanglong immediately, but went directly to the nearest town to let the two of them really see how Buddhism works.
Due to his basic understanding of Buddhism, Shen Fei was not afraid of failure at all, or meeting some enlightened monk who would change Shuanglong's view of Buddhism, because it was very simple. Even if it was the Jingnian Zen Temple, he could find problems in it, not to mention other temples.
Buddhism is the biggest usurer of this era. The word "pawn" is derived from the temple treasury system of Buddhist temples. Even many Buddhist scriptures and canons have records of endless interest and endless benefits. At that time, the six groups of people should plant, plant and earn interest, or take or give, or produce or pledge, so that monks can lend money with peace of mind to make profits for the three treasures of Buddha, Dharma, and monks.
Even in Journey to the West, when Tang Monk came to the West to get the true scriptures, he needed to take out offerings, which made people laugh.
"These bald donkeys are really hateful."
After an investigation, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked extremely ugly. The luxury of the temple was not a big deal. The key was the full gold, silver and jewelry in the temple warehouse and the shocking amount of land in the account. If Shen Fei hadn't stopped them, the two might have rushed into the temple immediately and killed the temple's abbot.
Unfortunately, the two of them could only leave with a look of reluctance and angry cursing. The reason was very simple. Unless all the people in the temple were killed, killing only one or two abbots would not help at all. After all, the temple system would not change.
If it were Shen Fei, it would not matter if he killed a person in the temple directly, but for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, they could not do so. Shuanglong would only kill the main opponent unless he was in a war or had no choice.
"It's helpless, right? In fact, I am the same. There is no change at all."
After leaving the temple, Shen Fei took Shuanglong and walked around the nearby villages. There were no righteous armies nearby. Generally speaking, it was peaceful, but it was only generally speaking. If you look closely and deeply, you will find that there are many problems.
Looking at the ancient feudal society in China's history of 2,000 years, until modern times, the overall structure did not change much, and the same was true in terms of technology.
It is just a continuous cycle of dynasties. Even because of the exclusive Confucianism, it is not as good as the various schools of thought in the Warring States Period. This is simply a regression.
"Okay, don't talk about these unhappy things. Let's go to the city to have a good meal."
If it was before Shen Fei came into contact with him, Shuanglong would be very excited. Now the two of them have just gotten rid of their identities as gangsters. What they want is just to drink and eat meat, just like the two of them sold the account book of Dongming Sect to Li Shimin for only a few dozen taels of silver.
Strictly speaking, it is not a problem to sell the account book for a thousand taels of gold.
On the second floor of the largest restaurant in Dongping County, Shen Fei and the other two sat in seats by the window. After the excellent wine and food were served, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling recovered their nature and began to eat and drink.
"There seem to be a lot of people here, especially the people of Jianghu." Because they were sitting by the window, the three of them could clearly see the pedestrians on the street below. Not only on the street, but also in the restaurant, there were mostly people of Jianghu.
"Something must have happened. Look at me, waiter." Kou Zhong shouted loudly. Brothels and restaurants are usually well-informed, especially places where a large number of people gather. Kou Zhong's method is very simple. He directly uses money to get information from the waiter.
"I didn't expect that Shi Qingxuan would come."
From the waiter, the three people soon knew why there were so many people from the underworld here. It was because Shi Qingxuan, who was famous all over the world, was coming here to celebrate Wang Tong's birthday. These people were thinking about whether they could take this opportunity to meet Shi Qingxuan. Even if they couldn't see her in person, it would be worthwhile to hear her world-famous flute art.
Shi Qingxuan has a very big reputation in the Central Plains. Even if Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were once gangsters in Yangzhou, they had heard of her name.
There is another person who is also famous, that is Shang Xiufang, who is known as the world's first talented woman. This person seems to have fallen in love with Kou Zhong later.
If we change it to modern terms, Shi Qingxuan and Shang Xiufang are the kind of superstars. Even if the world is in chaos, it will not affect some people's star chasing.
Because Shi Qingxuan's reputation directly overwhelmed Wang Tong, who was originally going to celebrate his birthday. You should know that Wang Tong is also a very famous person. He is a great scholar and a master-level master who is no less than the four major clans.
However, it seems that after becoming famous in his thirties, he gave up martial arts and turned to literature. He did not teach martial arts, but only gathered disciples to teach. It is said that the reason for such a change seems to be related to some things that happened in the past. Judging from his attitude towards Shi Qingxuan, perhaps there is some connection with Bi Xiuxin.
Of course, this statement that the martial arts are no less than the four major clans, although it refers to the four major clans, strictly speaking, there are actually three. Song Que of the Song clan is generally not counted, just like there are five of the Four Heavenly Kings, and Song Que is a special case among the four major clans.
"I remember that she has the Immortal Seal of the Evil King Shi Zhixuan, and there are four guys chasing her to get the Evil Emperor's relics. She is lucky."
Since he knew that Shi Qingxuan was coming, Shen Fei would not miss it. Shuanglong and the others also wanted to see her. Even though they were not fans of Shi Qingxuan, they wanted to see the superstar since they had the chance to do so.
As a master of the generation and a great scholar of the generation, Wang Tong's residence is naturally very luxurious. A huge mansion located in the south of the city is his residence. This is probably because there are so many people who come here because of Shi Qingxuan's reputation. In addition, not everyone Everyone is qualified to enter the palace.
Therefore, in the square outside the palace, there are also a large number of tables and chairs for those who are not qualified to enter the palace to rest and eat.
After all, it was for Shi Qingxuan's reputation that Wang Tong came here. Naturally, Wang Tong would not be stingy. It was a big banquet, and it was a flowing banquet.
"Please, three gentlemen."
Shen Fei took Shuanglong and entered the palace directly under the leadership of a servant of the palace. Even if the three of them did not have an invitation, it would be the same. Who makes Shen Fei extraordinary? The servants who can greet guests all have extremely winking eyes. A good person will never ask for an invitation without being discerning.
"It seems that people still need clothes." At this time, Shuanglong also put on a suit of well-fitting clothes. In addition, because of the longevity secret, Shuanglong's temperament is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"Wang Shichong, the general manager of Luoyang, it seems that my luck is really good."
Seeing that one of the three people sitting in the middle of the hall was Wang Shichong, Shen Fei immediately laughed. He still knew some information about Wang Shichong, such as that he was connected with the Ming Zunjiao. Of course, Shen Fei I don't really care. Now that he is here, Daming Zunjiao is nothing. Sooner or later, everything will be solved.
The key is Wang Shichong's general manager of Luoyang. In Shen Fei's previous plan, Luoyang's geographical location is very important. Like Chang'an, Luoyang was once the capital of many dynasties.
It can be said that in this era, Luoyang's geographical advantage is second only to Chang'an, but if the future is taken into account, Luoyang's geographical advantage will surpass Chang'an.
That is to say, Wang Shichong is an idiot. He owns Luoyang and has such a huge advantage, but in the end he loses completely. However, this is a good thing for Shen Fei, that is, he can take action for him without any scruples.
Luoyang is the capital city that Shen Fei chose. The tone is like the step-by-step development of Kou Zhong in the original work. Wouldn't it be better to start directly in Luoyang?
Not to mention that the next Cihang Jingzhai Emperor Chosen for Heaven and the Jing Nian Zen Sect are all in Luoyang City.
Of the other two people sitting with Wang Shichong, one is naturally the owner of this place, Wang Tong. Next to him is Huangshan Yimin Ouyang Xiyi, a contemporary of Ning Daoqi and one of the few masters in the world.
"It's you two puppies. I finally found you." Just when Shen Fei was paying attention to Wang Shichong and others, several people suddenly appeared around him, surrounding the three of them. The leader was a young but seemingly Some unruly girls stared at Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling with angry eyes.
"You have quite a few enemies." Shen Fei said and looked at Shuanglong helplessly. At this time, Shuanglong was also speechless. They had no idea that they would encounter a savage woman here.
"How did you offend her and make her so angry?" Shen Fei looked at the unruly girl's heaving chest and then asked curiously.
"This is not our fault. It happened when I was with my father. Speaking of which, we saved her at that time."
Even if they were hostile to Du Fuwei, maybe because they were used to being called each other, Xu Ziling's side was better, while Kou Zhong's side kept calling him daddy.
