"It turned out to be the deputy commander of Jinlongwei supervising the eight southwest states"
[Jinlongwei] A privileged supervisory agency and spy agency similar to the Jinyiwei and Dongchang in the previous life. Its main responsibilities are to investigate, arrest, interrogate, collect military intelligence, instigate enemy generals, monitor officials, ghosts and gods, etc., and report directly to the emperor.
He is responsible, has many privileges such as secretly informing the emperor, and can act expediently, and has great authority.
However, [Golden Dragon Guard] is relatively low-key and secretive, and belongs to the emperor's secret intelligence organization.
In the past, when Chu Chen was practicing cultivation and had a low status in magical powers, he had never heard of it, but since he became the inspector of the Immortal Court, he had a vague idea that there was such a secret guard that directly belonged to the emperor.
Although the Imperial Court's Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Immortal Supervisory Department are known as the "Emperor's Eyes and Ears", they are both on the table. In many cases, they cannot allow the Emperor to effectively control all directions, so there is such an intelligence agency that belongs exclusively to the Emperor.
.
Chu Chen's spiritual consciousness penetrated into the [Golden Dragon Order], and he was slightly surprised.
He immediately became the deputy commander of the [Golden Dragon Guard], supervising the eight southwest states. His rank was from the third grade. However, the position of deputy commander of the Golden Dragon Guard was powerful, and his grade was not important.
At that time, if there is any movement in the eight southwest states, the Demon Court Intelligence, and even the local state pastors will be in charge of it. If there is any movement of ghosts, gods, generals, he has the right to investigate. If necessary, he can even kill first and report later, so as to do things expediently.
Even the governor of the southwest, his great uncle Yu Xuzi, was within the scope of Chu Chen's supervision.
Just as Mr. Ming Jing said, Mr. Ming handed the eight southwest states into his hands.
Speaking of which, the commander and deputy commander of the [Golden Dragon Guard] are either family generals and playmates from childhood to adulthood, or brothers from the royal family. They are all the absolute confidants of the emperor and rarely appoint courtiers.
Officials are in charge.
Mr. Ming Jing handed him this [Golden Dragon Order]. Apart from the fact that he had infiltrated the higher-ups of the demons outside the territory and was very suitable for gathering intelligence on the frontiers and many other matters, the most important thing was "trust", as if he regarded him as a confidant or even his right-hand man.
Chu Chen shook his head. He used his sleeping insect clone to seize the body of the Heavenly Demon. When outsiders heard about it, they could not help but think that "the Tao is as high as the Demon is one foot higher", and that he was captured by the Heavenly Demon without knowing it.
Letting a person who is suspected of being possessed by a demon take charge of the [Golden Dragon Guard] in the eight southwest states is quite risky.
"Mr. Ming Jing is quite courageous and is not afraid that I will be possessed by a demon."
Chu Chen smiled, Mr. Ming Jing trusted him, and he would not betray his trust.
Within a year, he is confident that his clone [Five-Colored Dream Dragon] will be promoted to the third level. At that time, he will truly blend into the upper echelons of the extraterrestrial demonic realm [Luo Guixiang] and enter the sight of Luo Gui Demon Emperor.
The [Golden Dragon Order] was given to him personally by Mr. Ming Jing and is not known to outsiders.
In the Immortal Court of the Chaotang, Chu Chenming saw that his gains were not small.
He studied deeply in the Three Cave Scriptures at the Taoist Academy of the Imperial Capital. He successfully obtained the thirteenth-level cave urn and was titled "Dong Shen Mage."
Wearing a pure lotus crown and a third-grade Taoist robe, he looks like a third-grade high-gong practitioner and a Taoist master.
Of course, in addition to these, this time he killed Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen with his sword and saved Xiaochilong Mountain, which was a great achievement. Mr. Mingjing stepped forward, and the Immortal Envoy from the Immortal Courtyard came behind him.
This time, the Immortal Court of Heaven gave a generous reward.
Not to mention anything else, there are as many as five treasures of the Five Elements alone.
In addition, there are one thousand immortal tributes and one million jade coins.
The various rewards are much richer than those for killing the third-level demon Qingyan Dragon King, especially the Five Elements Rare Treasures, which are deeply in line with his wishes.
Last time, in order to refine the transformation magic weapon [Dutian Master Seal], he consumed all the Five Elements Rare Treasures in his hand. Now he has five more copies, which will be used in the future "Heaven, Earth, Man, Dragon and Tiger" five-method seal.
superior.
If it's not enough, he can exchange it with immortal tribute or jade money, so he doesn't have to worry about it.
After receiving the reward and meeting Master Yulou and Taoist Changfeng in the Taoist Temple, Chu Chen packed up the cave where he stayed, left the Taoist Temple, and rushed to Tang Mansion, the imperial capital, and the Chen Mansion he bought for his younger brother Pengju.
Speaking of which, Tang Boqing is about to be transferred to the northwest to conduct business in the area. His younger brother is no longer in the imperial capital. He plans to be transferred to Jiuzhou to serve as the governor of a county.
Relatively speaking, the land of Jiuzhou is not as dangerous as the borderland state, but the situation is also extremely complicated. It is not easy to be a good county parent official, and it can be regarded as a test for Pengju.
This was what it was meant to be, and Chu Chen was very supportive of it. Before setting off, he even left a treasure of the Five Elements to his younger brother Pengju.
Nowadays, my younger brother Pengju has been cultivating the fifth level of Taoism. I don’t know how long he will be practicing outside in the future. If he reaches the fifth level of perfection in the future and encounters a breakthrough opportunity, it will not be beautiful if he does not have the "Five Elements Rare Treasure" to help him.
Chu Chen was not stingy towards his little brother.
After a lot of work, as soon as I left the imperial capital, I heard repeated complaints from the little devil.
"Brother, have you visited relatives and friends? I've slept for several times. I can't wait for when you return to Yunzhou."
"Let's go. Let's leave now."
Chu Chen smiled slightly, knowing why the little ghost boy hurried back to Yunzhou.
There is no other reason, just two words, 哐SE.
Looking at the entire Lingshan sect as a third-level Taoist, except for him, he is just a kid. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the "little ancestor" of Lingshan.
"What's the point of living if you don't return your wealth and honor to your hometown? Senior brother, let's go back to Qingzhou to find Sister Ying'er first, and then rush to Yunzhou together."
"Haha~"
Three days later.
On the outskirts of Yunzhou, Yunyi is on the top of the mountain.
Taoist Master Xu Ping, Taoist Yunlei, Taoist Yunfeng, Zhenqing, Zhentong, Chu Baiqing, Guang Gengsheng, etc., everyone from the Lingshan sect gathered together, looking into the distance and looking forward to it.
A few months ago, under the arrangement of Taoist Master Xu Ping, everyone from the Lingshan Sect who originally served as immortal officials in Qingzhou was transferred to Yunzhou.
Compared with twenty years ago, Yunzhou is much safer and not as dangerous as before. The most important thing is that there are far more opportunities than in Kyushu, making it very suitable for everyone in the Lingshan Sect to hone their skills.
"I didn't expect that my junior brother would actually be chosen as the Elder of the Central Elder of the Immortal Courtyard. If this hadn't happened to me, I wouldn't have believed it."
Senior Brother Lingshan Zhenqing looked at the sea of clouds and whispered softly.
Hearing this, Chu Baiqing looked proud: "Uncle, my master is very powerful in Taoism and magic. If the master of the Immortal Court doesn't choose my master as an elder, that would be out of sight."
"That's what my nephew said."
Zhentong, Zhending, Zhenguang and other fellow disciples all agreed, but they were a little confused inside.
Not to mention that they are not as good as their junior brother Chu Chen, even his two apprentices Chu Baiqing and Guang Gengsheng are beyond their reach. This makes people feel uncomfortable. Every time they see these two apprentices,
They were a little embarrassed.
The expressions in the hearts of the three brothers, Taoist Yunlei, Taoist Yunfeng, and Taoist Yunxi, are even more subtle.
This time, Taoist Yunlei rarely reprimanded his apprentice Zhenqing. The reason was very simple. He didn't have much confidence. His nephew's apprentice was almost catching up with him in Taoist practice. How could he bother to reprimand his apprentice?
When his apprentice choked him, he couldn't get off the stage.
Taoist priest Xu Ping on the side listened to everyone's discussion and shook his head.
He knew that his disciple Chu Chen was much more powerful than everyone in the Lingshan Sect had imagined.
Perhaps in order to save some face for the Fengming Hou Mansion, the Hou Mansion secretly hid the dragon veins and committed a major crime of disobedience and did not report it. The news that Chu Chen killed Tianyi Hou with a sword in the imperial capital was only in the circle of high-ranking masters and great supernatural monks.
spread.
Taoist Xu Ping also just heard the news in the past two days. After knowing it, he was shocked.
He traveled widely in those days and had a lot of experience.
Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen has been famous for many years, and his reputation is extremely high. He has heard about it for a long time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like thunder. The death of such a famous and powerful man at the hands of his disciple Chu Chen shocked him too much.
Back then, when his disciple Chu Chen killed the Qingyan Dragon King, he could still be said to have suffered heavy losses. His dragon body, magic weapon was lost, and his Taoist and magical powers were greatly reduced. There was a suspicion that he had missed something. But now, the sword kills Tianyi Hou Nie Zhen, which is a real deal.
A strong record of success.
While everyone was talking, a gorgeous flying treasure ship came speeding up from the clouds.
Far away, I saw a man and a woman standing on the deck, arrogantly looking at the wind and clouds, like a couple of gods and immortals.
Beside it, a fierce tiger is entrenched. On the tiger's head, a little Taoist boy wearing a purple, gold-trimmed, embroidered third-grade Taoist robe with sun, moon, stars, gossip, and unicorn patterns stands proudly, standing with his hands behind his back, letting the strong wind blow.
, remained motionless.
At first glance, apart from the somewhat unconventional image of a three-inch carrot head, he really has the air of a third-grade high-gong and Taoist master.
This is the little ghost boy. After approaching Yunzhou City, it has maintained this posture, looking showy.
As the saying goes, if you take a hard time, you will gain wisdom.
The little devil is not stupid either. The painful experience of being beaten up by the master last time for being too arrogant made him mature a lot.
This time, it didn't open its mouth and was only responsible for pretending.
"Zhenyi, Ying'er, master, junior brother"
"Master and Uncle"
When the treasure ship arrived, everyone from the Lingshan Sect immediately surrounded it and talked with Chu Chen and Qingying.
We had not seen each other for half a year, and the two sides exchanged pleasantries very enthusiastically.
After some conversation, there was laughter and laughter, and it was a lively scene.
However, everyone did not talk much and soon gathered around Chu Chen and Qingying and the others left.
Poor little devil, in just a dozen breaths, he stood with his hands behind his back, but he had already pretended tens of thousands of times.
Unfortunately, everyone's attention was focused on Chu Chen and Qingying, and no one paid any attention to them.
"Hey, hey, wait for me, I haven't gotten in the car yet! Dali Huzi, let's catch up."
Yuqin Mountain, Yunzhou.
After everyone reunited, Qingying went straight to the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce headquarters without disturbing Chu Chen and the Lingshan faction to discuss important matters.
Chu Chen and Taoist Master Xu Ping took the disciples of the Lingshan Sect and rushed to a temporary gate of the Lingshan Sect in Yuqin Mountain to pay homage to the founders, Taoist Fu Hua and Taoist Fu Ling. Four generations of the entire Lingshan Sect, old, middle and young, gathered together.
Chu Chen, Xu Ping, Taoist Fu Hua, Taoist Fu Ling sat in the upper position, followed by Yun Lei, Yun Feng, Yun Xi, followed by Zhen Qing, Zhen Tong, then Chu Baiqing, Guang Gengsheng and others, in order
Sitting down, it was very lively.
"Zhenyi, you are finally back."
When Taoist Fu Hua and Taoist Fu Ling heard that their disciple Sun Chuchen was back, they immediately went out to greet him. If it weren't for the inconvenience caused by his sensitive identity, they would have gone to Yunzhou City Station to welcome him.
The disciple Chuchen's fierce performance in the sword battle with Tianyi Hou in the Imperial Capital completely impressed the two of them.
At this moment, the two elders did not say anything, but in their hearts they already regarded Chu Chen as the backbone and head of the Lingshan Sect.
The Lingshan sect moved to Yunzhou, where to move, and how to arrange such important matters. If Chu Chen was not around and he had not made the decision, it would be absolutely impossible.
Although Taoist Xu Ping is nominally the head of the Lingshan Sect, his weight has long been far inferior to that of Chu Chen.
Chu Chen is undoubtedly the real talker of Lingshan Sect.
It can be seen from the seat.
After everyone was seated, Taoist Fu Hua took out a map and handed it to Chu Chen, saying:
"Zhenyi, take a look, where is the best place to stay at the gate of Lingshan Mountain? I asked Princess Yutao to search for these treasures in Lingshan Mountain. All of them are good places."
Chu Chen became interested.
The Kanyu map was slowly unfolded, and he casually glanced at the treasures and mountains marked on the Kanyu map, and couldn't help but nod his head.
Princess Jade Tao, he had the impression that she was the Princess of Jinchan Palace, the concubine of her master Taoist Fu Hua, a well-known rich woman from the eight southwest states. She was well-informed, and every place she chose was where she would settle down.
, the treasure land where the sect was founded is extremely rare.
The Yunwu Mountain selected by Song Jian [Baiyun Cave] is more than a little bit worse than any of the treasures on the map.
The Lingshan Gate that Princess Yutao helped select not only contains hidden spiritual veins, but also has a large territory, so there is no need to worry about restricting the future development of the sect.
The most important thing is that these quite good treasures are much cheaper than the imperial capital Zhongzhou or even Kyushu. In comparison, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are cabbage prices.
To a certain extent, this is also the reason why the eight southwest states are more suitable for the Lingshan Sect to become stronger and bigger than the land of Kyushu.
Let’s not talk about the imperial capital of Zhongzhou, let’s talk about Qingzhou, all Lingshan treasures, all “famous mountains have owners”, it is not the Lingshan sect’s turn at all, and even if they spend money, others may not be willing to give it.
Of course, Chu Chen could ask his father-in-law and mother-in-law for help to find a treasure land in Longling Mountain.
However, after some discussions between Chu Chen, his master, and his master, they all gave up on this idea.
At present, the harmony between Lingshan Sect and Diyuan Dragon Palace is entirely for Chu Chen's sake. In the future, if Chu Chen succeeds in his practice and ascends to heaven, the incestuous relationship will be cut off, which will not be conducive to the development of Lingshan Sect.
In comparison, coming to Yunzhou for development is an opportunity for Lingshan Sect to grow and develop.
"Hey~ why is there no Yuqin Mountain?"
Chu Chen looked around for a long time, but he didn't find any mark around Yuqin Mountain on the Kanyu map.
Taoist Fu Hua's expression changed slightly: "Zhenyi, do you plan to settle the Lingshan Sect in Yuqin Mountain?"
"good!"
Chu Chenzhen nodded and looked at the map. The place chosen by Princess Jin Chan was indeed good and suitable for the development of the Lingshan Sect. However, in his mind, Yuqin Mountain was the only place for the Lingshan Sect to settle down.
There is no other reason. His cave heaven paradise is in Yuqin Mountain, which is also the main reason why he supports the Lingshan Sect to move to Yunzhou.
The reason for this was not convenient for him to say at the moment.
However, he currently has a profound spiritual practice and has enough say in the Lingshan Sect, so he does not need to explain too much.
As long as you express your attitude, whether it is master Xu Ping, Fu Hua, or Fu Ling, everyone will take it seriously.
"Zhenyi, Yuqin Mountain is indeed a good place, but it may be a bit difficult."
On the side, Taoist Fu Ling, who had never spoken, shook his head with regret on his face.
"What's the difficulty? Please give me some advice, Master!"
Chu Chen had some vague guesses in his heart and quickly asked for advice: "Is it possible that the God of Yuqin Mountain is unwilling?"
"good!"
Taoist Fu Hua nodded solemnly: "Actually, I met with Big Brother Yuqin a few days ago and explained the matter. He flatly refused after hearing this, saying that he was unwilling to let the Lingshan Sect settle in Yuqin Mountain. I said,
He also refused in every possible way to give up my territory in Yuqin Mountain to the Lingshan Sect."
Chu Chen was shocked when he heard this.
Unexpectedly, the settlement of the Lingshan Sect, which was thought to be a sure thing, actually ran into trouble.
