Heigu looked at him amused and said: "But with my ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to train these two disciples. Even the gifted spiritual roots will inevitably be buried for the rest of their lives."
Li Tiezui smiled bitterly and said: "What Brother Heigu said is true, but his two sons have talents. I will travel all over the world to find a promising master for them."
He paused suddenly when he said this, and then said: "Brother Hei Gu is knowledgeable and has advanced cultivation. It is better to accept these two children."
Heigu shook his head and said: "If I had all the skills, it wouldn't be a problem to accept them, but now I don't have a tenth or tenth of my cultivation left, even if I have the intention, I can't do it. If you beg me, you might as well beg Yunsheng, his uncle
The human beings in the Heavenly Vault are enlightened by their magic, and the Heavenly Vault Mountain is not far from here. You can go there after everything is over."
After Li Tiezui heard this, he looked at Chen Yunsheng and said, "Brother Chen, I hope you don't shirk the unkind request from me. This is related to the maintenance of our sect."
Chen Yunsheng saw the pleading look in his eyes and said, "I will do my best. Brother Li doesn't have to be so polite."
When Li Tiezui heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Thinking about how he had been living in the world for half his life, except for the hopelessness of cultivating immortals, he was quite happy and free. The only thing he worried about was that he could not pass on his sect. Now listen to
How can you not be happy that your two disciples can succeed?
Heigu changed the subject and said, "Taoist Gumu himself is very powerful, and he has the help of his disciples. I'm afraid it will be difficult for the three of us to do it alone. The only way to succeed is to drive away tigers and devour wolves."
"Oh, Taoist brother Heigu really hit the mark. When you said that, I remembered that the Youlong Gang has several enemies in Xianzhou City, and the most powerful among them is Heihumen."
"In recent years, the two gangs have fought over the business of several inns and wine shops. Because the Youlong Gang has attached themselves to Gu Mu Zhenren, the Black Tiger clan members have been tolerant and restrained. Seeing that several businesses have been snatched away, the Black Tiger clan leader worships Black Tiger.
It seems that they are also secretly recruiting some monks, and I'm afraid they won't give up." Li Tiezui said, twirling his sparse beard.
"The strength of the Black Tiger Gate must be inferior to that of the Youlong Gang, so we cannot expect them to be the main attack, but with reasonable arrangements, they can play a big role. We cannot attack Gumu directly now, we should start with the weaker Youlong Gang to get rid of those
Duan. Then use the Black Tiger Gate to contain the leaderless Youlong Gang. It is best to force Gumu to send two guardians and a few apprentices to help. Then our chance will come. If Gumu is alone, I am still confident that he will be defeated.
Destroyed."
Hei Gu looked like he was pointing the country, shaking the black skeleton while talking, the scene was very strange. Until then, Chen Yunsheng was completely convinced by Hei Gu. No matter what the conspiracy, this person can be scheming.
The master asked me to ask him for advice more often, which was a real request.
Li Tiezui was also full of admiration and said happily: "Listening to Brother Black Bone Taoist's words is better than my Taoist meditating for ten years. If nothing else can do it, I, Li Tiezui, have a pretty sharp tongue. I am willing to be a lobbyist.
Let Chong Heihu help us with his sharp tongue."
"You don't need to rush to lobby. I also want to prepare a gift for Chong Heihu. Yunsheng needs to go there in person to handle this matter."
Heigu turned to Chen Yunsheng and said: "You are going to pick off Duan Xiude's head. If you have this thing, you don't have to worry about worshiping the black tiger. We can't stay here any longer. I'm afraid Gu Mu will find it here."
, get ready, we will all move into Xianzhou City tomorrow!"
…
Xianzhou is an important town on the southern border of Xiliang Kingdom. It is not only a stronghold with heavy military garrison, but also a place where merchants gather. There is an endless stream of merchants traveling from south to north all year round. The town is very large, with millions of permanent residents.
A group of five people came on the road this day. A middle-aged man in his forties walked a little unsteadily at the front. Behind him was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, with sharp eyebrows and tiger eyes, and extraordinary appearance. Beside him, there was
There was a young girl, with a slim figure, her hair tied in a golden ring, a dark red complexion, and a pair of very smart eyes. Behind them were two children, about ten years old.
This group of people is Chen Yunsheng, Liu Xiaoshan and Li Tiezui's master and apprentice. They followed the words of Hei Gugu and went on the road in disguise, intending to enter Xianzhou and follow the plan. Since Xianzhou is very close to Luoxia Temple, none of the group
They cast spells and went on foot, which would not draw attention to themselves. After all, they had to try their best to escape the eyes and ears of the Youlong Gang and not to alert others.
Before leaving, Li Tiezui bowed sentimentally to Luoxia three times and murmured some words. Liu Xiaoshan teased him, saying that he seemed to be going away and never coming back, which was very unlucky, and Li Tiezui didn't feel dissatisfied. Ever since he saw it,
After Chen Yunsheng blocked the sword for the girl, his attitude towards Liu Xiaoshan changed a lot. He did not treat her as a servant.
There are sixteen gates in Xianzhou City. When the five of them came to the south gate, which is usually reserved for ordinary people, they saw that the city wall was towering, more than ten feet high. It was all made of bluestone and looked extremely strong.
From time to time, soldiers holding spears patrolled up and down the city gate, with various flags fluttering in the wind. There was an endless stream of pedestrians in front of the city gate. Due to the large number of cars and horses, the dirt road in front of the city gate made two deep tracks.
Two military officers in bright armor held long swords and checked the passers-by. There were some notices and portraits on the walls of the city gate, some of which were incomplete due to age.
According to Chen Yunsheng's idea, there is no need to go to such trouble, just escape into the city. Li Tiezui shook his head and said with a smile, no, there is Sitian Pavilion in the city, and no monks are allowed to cast spells in the city to avoid disturbing the people.
Chen Yunsheng had not been in the world for a long time and had no idea what Sitian Pavilion was. He asked with confusion on his face: "How can Sitian Pavilion prevent monks from casting spells?"
"Brother Chen, I don't know. Sitian Pavilion is an institution dedicated to worshiping monks in the Xiliang Kingdom. It has been established in the state capital and as small as the county level. Xianzhou is the most important town in the southwest, and the Sitian Pavilion is dedicated to worshiping monks.
There are as many as a hundred monks, and there are restrictions in many places in the city. If you cast a spell in front of you, someone will come to arrest you behind you. How can we, the casual cultivators, defeat the national cultivators who eat the royal food?" Li Tie said with a hint of fear in his tone.
Sour taste.
"Then how can the royal family of Xiliang Kingdom restrain so many people who are cultivators of immortality? How can these monks, who all have different ideas and are rebellious, serve the royal family honestly?" In Chen Yunsheng's mind, those who cultivate immortality should be hidden.
There are famous mountains and rivers, eating in the wind and drinking dew all day long, without caring about worldly affairs, just like his master Fei Yunzi.
"What Brother Chen said is good, but he seems to have forgotten an important premise. If this royal family is the largest cultivating family in Xiliang, then it will be no problem to support some cultivators."
"Brother, if you think about it, a person who has reached the extreme level of immortality can control the wind and rain, and make soldiers out of flying flowers and fallen leaves. He is thousands of times more powerful than ordinary people. He will naturally have the power of a human king, and it is natural for ordinary people to worship him."
"Besides, becoming the leader of a country has great benefits. Not only can you make slaves and maids, but you can also control the country's spiritual stones and magic crystal veins. Therefore, many immortal clans are fighting for the position of king. Even though
Looking at the entire Qingzhou Continent, there is no country or country that is not in the hands of the Immortal Cultivation Family."
Although Li Tiezui didn't have any enlightenment in cultivating immortals, he was very familiar with political tactics. He spoke as if he had experienced many clan struggles.
While the two were talking, they arrived in front of the city gate. A guard wearing bronze armor made a sign of prohibition. The guard walked forward and looked at the few people for a while, and then looked at the portrait posted on the city gate.
After a while, he found that he was not a wanted person, so he let the group enter the city. Before leaving, Li Tiezui took out a piece of silver weighing two ounces from his pocket and put it into the guard's hand. The two of them smiled with satisfaction.
According to Li Tiezui, this is just in case of emergencies. There is no telling when such a little person will be needed. Before entering the city, several people simply made some disguises in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the Youlong Gang as much as possible.
.
After entering the city, several people walked through the streets and alleys under the leadership of Li Tiezui. The places they passed along the way were either remote alleys or inaccessible alleys. After twists and turns, they came to a stop in front of an inn.
Chen Yunsheng looked up and saw shabby plaques hanging on the door of the store, which read - Ma's Old Store.
Li Tiezui walked through the store door and went straight to the counter. An old man in his early fifties was dialing the abacus with his head lowered. His face showed helplessness from time to time, obviously not satisfied with the business. Li Tiezui came closer and stretched out his hand.
The old man patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Old Ma, how are you doing recently?"
The old man was startled. He raised his head and looked at Li Tiezui with a pensive expression. After a while, a smile gradually appeared on the old man's face, which slowly turned into a look of respect. He gave Li Tiezui a smile.
He bowed and said, "I'm sorry for my blindness, but are you Master Li Xian?"
Li Tiezui smiled back and replied: "Thank you, Old Ma, for remembering Pindao. It's been two years since we last saw each other."
When the old man surnamed Ma heard this, he confirmed his suspicion and hurriedly stepped forward to salute again and said: "I haven't seen you for two years. How come my benefactor has changed so much that even this little old man can't recognize him."
Li Tiezui took off the disguise on his face and said with a smile: "You will recognize it now."
The old horse clicked his tongue and praised: "The Taoist priest is still very clever, and his face can change at any time. It's true that Taoism is profound."
Liu Xiaoshan next to him was amused. This old man was so flattering that smearing some mud on his face and sticking a few strands of fake beard on his face could not be considered clever. This was nothing compared to Taoism.
Li Tiezui was very pleased and nodded and said: "Old Ma, the young man behind me is my new acquaintance. The two of us have traveled here and want to stay for a while. You can make arrangements accordingly."
Chen Yunsheng's mouth twitched when he heard the word "Xianyou". He learned a new word, "Xianyou". It seems that in the future, this word can be used to avoid disasters and escape. One is crown, the other is profound, both
It retains the demeanor of a cultivator and conceals the embarrassment of being homeless.
