Three days later, when they were ready to set off, an Audi A6L and a Toyota Alfa commercial vehicle were parked at the Zhugang People's Official Palace.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Ye Shaofeng and Wu Lan were driven to People's Square by Zhang Weidong. When they got off the bus, Zhang Weidong asked Ye Shaofeng: "Brother Feng, are you really planning to go? Is this thing reliable? Don't go there to see it." Is it a money trap caused by feudal superstition or something like that?”
"No, I know for sure," Ye Shaofeng said, taking out his luggage from the trunk of Zhang Weidong's Cadillac Escalade.
There really wasn't much luggage, just a small backpack with some daily necessities in it. Ye Shaofeng was not used to hotel stuff when he was away from home. What's more, if he went there, it would be bad if he didn't stay in a hotel.
Wu Lan was carrying a big box. Girls are very particular. Although there was no cosmetics in it, there were a lot of thin clothes. This girl regarded this trip as a trip.
But Wu Lan's attitude is very good, he is relaxed and there is no pressure.
Not long after Zhang Weidong drove away, a Toyota Land Cruiser SUV drove over, and An Ruyi got out of the passenger seat.
"You two came quite early," An Ruyi said.
Wu Lan seemed very excited. When she saw An Ruyi, she politely called "Auntie".
This call made Ye Shaofeng feel uncomfortable.
Wu Lan calls him brother Shaofeng and calls An Ruyi aunt. Doesn't this mean that he is the same generation as Wu Lan and a generation below An Ruyi?
Even if An Ruyi and Wu Lan knew each other in the past, after all, Wu Lan's father Wu Honggang was one of the top bosses in Zhugang City, and An Ruyi was an official in Zhugang City, so the opportunities for officials and businessmen to get in touch were very high. Many, Wu Lan naturally met An Ruyi once or twice as soon as these two people came into contact, and An Ruyi also had some impressions of Wu Lan.
Wu Lan and An Ruyi sat in the back seat, and Ye Shaofeng sat in the passenger seat. The person driving the car was the liaison officer of the Quanzhen Sect in the entire Zhugang City. Only if he drove and led the way could everyone find him.
Ye Shaofeng was a little surprised and asked: "We are going to drive there,"
"Yes, planes and trains are not available, and if we take planes or trains, we will take long detours and delay our journey. If we drive, it will only take more than ten hours," An Ruyi said, and the driver was already driving.
"Oh my God, I have to make a car for more than ten hours at a time," Ye Shaofeng exclaimed.
"This can be regarded as a kind of spiritual practice,"
Ye Shaofeng nodded and said: "No wonder we sent a Land Cruiser here. It seems that the road there must not be easy, so we have to rely on this car for off-roading."
"I haven't been there specifically. Secretary Li Yuanze told me that two off-road vehicles were prepared, so I borrowed two vehicles from some businessmen friends in Hengjin New District," An Ruyi said.
"What about the other one?" Ye Shaofeng asked.
"Of course we are going to pick up Secretary Li Yuanze. Those two cars are for Secretary Li Yuanze and Master Jiuyun. Let's tell them to wait for them at the intersection now," An Ruyi explained.
"Aren't there five people in total? There should be one more person," Ye Shaofeng asked.
"The person in the car who is the secretary is considered Secretary Li Yuanze's senior brother. It was this senior brother who introduced Secretary Li Yuanze into the Quanzhen Sect," An Ruyi said.
"Oh," Ye Shaofeng said and then stopped talking. When he thought that he would have to ride for more than ten hours, he regretted agreeing to come.
Although he is now considered a member of the Quanzhen Sect, Ye Shaofeng always feels that he should be a disciple of Buddhism, not Taoism. The methods he practices when meditating and the mantras he chants are all Buddhist scriptures. Not those Taoist mantras.
Ye Shaofeng also knew that he could never stand in two different boats, so mentally, he still firmly believed that he should be a disciple of Buddhism and come from Buddhism, not Taoism.
Not only did he regret participating in this trip, he even regretted joining the Quanzhen Sect.
At the highway entrance, the car stopped and waited for a short while. About ten minutes later, Li Yuanze's car also arrived.
"Would you like to get out of the car and say hello?" Wu Lan asked. This little girl is big enough to understand the rules.
"No, after all, I am the deputy mayor of this city, and Li Yuanze is the municipal party committee secretary. If we meet here and are seen by others, it will be unclear. Let's drive away now. Zhenjiao, there are plenty of opportunities to talk to them. Besides, you will have to enter the service area later on, so just say hello to them when you get there." After An Ruyi finished speaking, the car started again and entered the highway.
The car was basically moving forward rapidly in the northwest direction, the speed was around 150 miles per hour. They did not record speeding in front of the camera. It is estimated that these two cars were fake cars when they came out.
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, the car entered the service area and had already arrived in Changhu Province.
After Ye Shaofeng got off the passenger car, he didn't go over to say hello first, and went straight to the toilet. After finishing the problem, he washed his face, walked out, and walked directly into the restaurant.
There are simple four-person tables in the restaurant. Two four-person tables are put together to form a large table. Several people sit down together. Although it is just a simple meal, there is still a very formal arrangement of seats.
Master Jiuyun sat in the middle seat, flanked by Li Yuanze and another eldest disciple, who was said to be Li Yuanze's senior brother, his Taoist name was Chui Mu.
Jiuyun Zhenren and Chuimu Xingzhe basically don't like to talk.
On the contrary, the white-haired and fair-faced Master Jiuyun really likes Wu Lan. He occasionally talks to Wu Lan. He thinks Wu Lan is quite sporadic and is a genius in cultivation.
On the contrary, he just ignored Ye Shaofeng and An Ruyi, thinking that these two people were introduced by Li Yuanze. Jiuyun Zhenren couldn't see that these two people had any good foundation. However, due to Li Yuanze's face, he would still He had to rely on Li Yuanze for good clothing and food, so the people he introduced would be taken with him.
The hanging tree seems to be a real piece of wood. He looks older than Li Yuanze, probably in his fifties or sixties. He doesn't speak and keeps his head down while eating, and he eats very slowly.
In the car just now, An Ruyi said that Senior Brother Chuimu has already reached the golden elixir stage. After the golden elixir level, there is the Yuanying stage. Once it reaches the Yuanying stage, it is basically reborn and has immortal energy. But there are It’s not enough to have immortal energy. You continue to move up. After you pass the period of transcending tribulations and reach the Mahayana, you can be considered as having a godhead. If you don’t get to the Mahayana, you will never become an immortal. You will always be a mortal. Even if you become an immortal, Qi, still can't ascend to become an immortal, and still have to suffer the pain of reincarnation...
