Everyone turned pale with astonishment, and following the sound, a middle-aged Taoist stood up slowly from the golden lotus.
Xie Yongxu, Xie Xuan and others who were sitting at the same table suddenly seemed to see a steep cliff rising from the ground, overlooking all living beings.
When he was drinking before, the middle-aged Taoist looked ordinary and easy-going. But now he has a majestic appearance, a tall figure, and electric light shining deep in his pupils, making it difficult to look directly at him.
Yuan Jingbo stared at the middle-aged Taoist in astonishment, and his mind was greatly shaken. This man's voice contained the magic technique "Thunder Sound Moves the Sky", which was directly passed down from the lineage of the head of Taishang Shenxiao Sect, and it cannot be faked.<
/p>
Chong Xuzi was about to question, when he caught a glimpse of Yuan Jingbo's expression, and suddenly his heart moved, and he retracted his words as soon as he spoke. All the Taoist officials secretly exchanged glances, and no one spoke first.
"Where did this bastard come from?" Pan Anren was stunned for a moment, then he got drunk and rushed to the Taoist angrily, reaching out to slap the Taoist on the cheek, "How dare you pretend to preach the Taoist order for Chongxuan Bureau, are you impatient?" The middle-aged Dao glanced at him sternly, and there was a loud bang in Pan Anren's mind. It was like being struck by thunder, and his vision went black. For a moment, he couldn't see anything. He waved his hands around in panic and shouted.
"Bold!" Pan Shilang roared angrily, and just as he was about to jump out, his eyes met the middle-aged Taoist, and suddenly his whole body went numb, as if a sharp bolt of lightning had penetrated his insides, making him unable to move.
Pan Bi's eyes flashed and he said to Pan Shilang: "Second brother, please be patient. The Chongxuan Office and His Highness have the final say on this matter!"
Yimo took Gao Qingyue's hint and poured the wine on his own. Chong Xuzi kept looking at Yuan Jingbo and refused to answer Pan's words.
The middle-aged Taoist turned his head to look at Zhikarizhen and smiled: "You are not surprised at all."
Zhi Shouzhen bowed deeply: "Thank you so much, Taoist Master, for your support."
"There is no need to thank me, thank yourself." The middle-aged Taoist said meaningfully, "Since you take the initiative to win the jade in the water, and strive to show off the beauty, the sect will naturally give you a chance to rise to the top."
Xie Xuan stared at Zhi Kaizhen, and then suddenly realized that the jade plate was actually Yuan An's fault!
"The Taoist ceremony cannot be abandoned. Yuan An, come with me." The middle-aged Taoist walked steadily onto the water and walked towards the Qingyun Staircase step by step. There were no ripples on the soles of his feet, and the water surface condensed into a smooth flat mirror.
All the Taoist officials looked at each other. Yuan Jingbo stood up and stood in front of the Qingyun Staircase. He bowed to the Taoist anxiously and asked tentatively: "May I ask your Majesty..." Although he came from Taishang Shenxiao
They come from the sect, but they have been hanging out in the outer sect. How can they have the opportunity to meet the senior leaders of the sect? These people are all practicing in seclusion and have not been interested in worldly affairs for many years.
"Poverty Taoist Xuanzhu, the first disciple of Taishang Shenxiao Sect, Taishang Yuanshi Tongxuan Daodezhenjun, is in charge of the Thunder Bluff lineage." The middle-aged Taoist swung his robe sleeves, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the Taoist patterns on the sleeves
Wisps of deep purple lightning flashed.
There seemed to be a pot exploding all around, Taishang Yuanshi Tongxuan Daodezhenjun, the headmaster of the Taishang Shenxiao Sect, the first person in the Taoist sect of the Jin Dynasty!
Yuan Jingbo made a buzzing sound in his head and staggered back, with cold sweat rolling down his forehead. The Thunder Bluff lineage is the core of the sect and is the direct descendant of the headmaster. This Xuanzhu Taoist is in charge of Thunder Bluff and has a powerful position, as if he is the Supreme God.
The candidate for the next head of the clan!
Yuan Jingbo's face turned pale, and he looked around as if asking for help, just like a drowning man seeking a life-saving straw. Bai Suge, Chong Xuzi and other Chongxuan officials avoided his eyes and bowed respectfully to Xuanzhu.
Even Pan Bi lowered his head and eyebrows, as if he fell asleep all of a sudden.
Yuan Jingbo smiled miserably and stood blankly for a while. He plucked up the courage and asked tremblingly: "Can Taoist Master Xuanzhu...can...can he have a jade medal to prove his identity?"
Xuanzhu glanced at him and shook his head slightly. Yuan Jingbo was overjoyed, but before he could argue, Xuanzhu opened his palm, revealing a crystal clear jade, with the Thunder Cliff seal pattern carved on it shining with a simple
Lightning.
The blood on Yuan Jingbo's face suddenly faded, and his heart sank to the bottom. Xuanzhu shook his head: "You can't recognize talents at the bottom, and can't discern the situation at the top. What use does the sect want you for? Go back to Boling and think about it.
The sect will choose another master of Ziyun Temple."
Yuan Jingbo's hands and feet trembled, and he collapsed to the ground with a "plop". Zhi Kaizhen stepped over him, followed behind Xuanzhu, and stepped on the Qingyun Ladder.
Many disciples from aristocratic families looked at Zhikarizhen's back.
"Yuan An, do you know how the family members below feel?" Xuanzhu stepped on the blue clouds and walked up slowly.
"Please tell me from the Taoist priest."
"It's despair! Because of despair, they are dissolute and indulgent. Because of despair, they spend a lot of money and be unrestrained. Because of despair, they only indulge in the present and do not ask for the future!"
Xuanzhu climbed to the top of the Qingyun Staircase and looked down with the indifferent eyes of looking down at ants: "A group of people got into trouble on a boat and were lost on the sea in the middle of the night, drifting separately. Some people saw the dim lights in the distance and tried their best to swim over. More
People can only watch the firelight and those who swim past, struggling in the dark waves, sinking little by little, until they die of despair. And most people are blind, they can't see the lights, so there is no such thing as despair." Zhi Shou Zhenli is standing next to me, if I have any enlightenment. A large number of nobles who cannot enter the core of Taoism, such as Yuan Jingbo, can live a hundred years longer than the common people at best. They also long for immortality, but have no hope of immortality. They are the only choice.
Only by enjoying yourself and having fun in time can you forget the despair deep in your heart.
"The Supreme Master Hunyuan Qingwei Xuande comes from a poor family, but I respect Senior Qingfeng because I respect everyone who swims towards the fire. As for other living beings, they are just waiting to die on the dark sea, so what is their worth to you and me?"
Gu?" Xuanzhu smiled calmly and held out the jade tablet, purple talisman and golden scripture, "This is also the reason why I ignored the activities of those aristocratic families and brought you into Thunder Bluff. Do you understand?"
"Disciple understands." Zhi Shou Zhenzhuang bowed his head solemnly and had a general understanding of Xuan Zhu's character. He put on the jade plaque, hung up the purple talisman, put away the golden scripture, and glanced at the black and moving heads below.<
/p>
The high-altitude wind blew freely and spread for thousands of miles. He finally took the crucial step to get rid of Wang Ziqiao!
"Bo Lingyuan's Yuan'an prerecorded the Thunder Cliff of Taishang Shenxiao Sect, and gave him a volume of "Taishang Heart Mirror Annotations" to lay the foundation for the spiritual method. I hope that by practicing Xinxue diligently, cultivating one's nature and cultivating one's nature, one can reach the level of Miaoji as soon as possible." Xuanzhu's words
The sound resounded in all directions again, and thunder shook the sky.
The tender cries of countless noble ladies came from below, and everyone in the Pan family looked ashen as if they were mourning for their heirs. Who would have expected that the supreme Supreme God Xiao Sect would bypass the Chongxuan Department and directly recruit Yuan An, or Thunder Cliff, the sect's most important place? Yuan Jingbo
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the Yuan clan leader. Yuan Taiqiu remained calm, with an unpredictable light flashing in his eyes.
Xie Qingfeng glanced at Yuan Wan, who shook her head in confusion: "It's not me." She was also puzzled. Could it be that Yuan An had a relationship with Taishang Shenxiaozong for a long time? Even so, how could he get into Thunder Bluff's eyes?
This matter can be accomplished only if the Supreme Lord Yuanshi Tongxuan Daodezhen personally intervenes.
"Yuan Anding will not disappoint the sect and the Taoist priest, nor will he disappoint the supreme master Hunyuan Qingwei Xuande. I would like to have the Taoist priest pay my respects to the real master on behalf of my disciples." Zhi Shouzhen bowed respectfully to Xuanzhu again. "The Supreme Lord Hunyuan Qingwei Xuande has paid a lot for you." Xuanzhu looked at him deeply, "If one day you are of no use to the sect and are of no use to the avenue, I will abandon you without hesitation.
You."
Zhi Shouzhen said with emotion: "In the past few years in the world of mortals, I must polish my Taoist heart and never indulge in worldly pleasures."
"The world of mortals is a sharpening stone. If you don't get addicted to it, how can you get out? You should take care of yourself and don't become the second Yuan Jingbo." Xuan Zhu smiled faintly, and his eyes met Gao Qingyue in the distance.
Then with a flick of his sleeve, it turned into a flash of lightning and disappeared into the sky in an instant.
"The power of the Taishang Shenxiao Sect is really burning, and there is another true king who can refine the void and combine the Tao." Gao Qingyue lightly praised, although Xuanzhu has just entered this level, but now Taishang Shenxiao has
The three sects of the sect have strong strength to stabilize the other sects.
After sending the Xuanzhu as a gift, as soon as he walked down the Qingyun Staircase, he was surrounded by Chong Xuzi and other Taoist officials. They were all smiling, greeting each other with greetings, and kept trying to get closer and congratulating each other. It was completely different from before.
. Yuan An reached the sky in one step and entered the core of the Taoist sect. His future was limitless. How could the Taoist officials be stupid enough to oppose him again?
Some second- and third-rate aristocratic families, wealthy and poor, also began to think about the idea of making friends with Yuan An. Yuan Taiqiu led the clan elders to greet him, with faces full of love and praise. The Yuan clan members began to sing and dance, throwing gold and jade.
Set off a new round of celebration frenzy.
Zhikarizhen was not arrogant and self-reliant. Instead, he was polite to everyone and greeted everyone humbly, winning a lot of praise. When he returned to the table, the darkness entered the river, the sun set in the west, and the last golden-red afterglow was on the water.
Burn.
Pan Anren sat paralyzed, his eyes still blurry, humiliation, fear, anger, panic... like poisonous snakes hissing in his heart. Pan was annoyed that he had embarrassed Pan, and ignored him. "Congratulations to fellow Taoist, you will be on your way to success from now on, and you can look forward to the great road." Xie Yongxu said with a smile.
Zhikarizhen stared at her sincere and innocent smile, and felt warm in his heart.
"Crackling -" the sound of firecrackers, thousands of dazzling fireworks blooming in the night sky, hundreds of gorgeous boats sailing in the distance, with lights and colorful decorations on the boats, silk and bamboos, beauties playing drums and dancing, actors singing on the stage...many aristocratic families
The young disciples shouted and jumped up, hugging each other, and playing as much as they wanted.
This is the last carnival of the Feast of Shadows.
Xie Xuan twisted his butt, glanced at Xie Yongxu, and sat there with a grimace.
"I know you are ready to make a move. That's all, you are a young man after all, so I will take you to see it." Kong Junzi pulled up the stunned Kong Jiuyan and boarded the boat parked beside it.
There was a drunk lady leaning on the railing of the boat. She suddenly waved her sleeves and shouted: "Master Yuan, you are so talented in literature. Why don't you compose a song for this situation?"
Everyone shouted in agreement and enthusiastically welcomed this rising Jiankang upstart.
Under the spotlight, Zhi Shouzhen looked around, and the crowd suddenly fell silent. The sound of oars, strings, lights, figures, and the night all merged into the water waves reflecting the fireworks, suddenly bright and dark, swaying, and little bits of gold powder shimmering.
He smiled freely, clapped his hands and sang:
"Golden Thread Banquet,
Jin Se Xian,
Fire trees, silver flowers, fish and dragons transform.
Look at you and me turning all living beings upside down,
A smile moves the sky.
Yinggexiao,
Butterfly dancing,
Why waste your time?
Qinhuai River can only stop after getting drunk.
Romance never ends.
Sad Thread,
Happy Dream Scissors,
The immortal is caressing his head as if he is taking it easy.
I only love wealth and honor in the world,
The world of mortals is the most lingering!"
After the song was sung, there were thunderous cheers, and a disciple from an aristocratic family shouted, "I only love wealth and honor in the world!" A fierce man threw himself into the river, scooped up the glittering river water in his palms, and drank with his head buried in his head.
"Thump thump thump..." The disciples of the family jumped into the Qinhuai River one after another, hitting the water waves and laughing wildly. Some broke their swords in joy, some took off their clothes, some imitated pig braying, some hugged women and had fierce intercourse, and some
He threw a lot of banknotes out and scattered them in the air...
I don’t know when, lotus lanterns floated on the river, like fireflies dancing. Countless lotus lanterns floated on the Qinhuai River, and countless more lotus lanterns floated into the night sky, twinkling on the water and in the sky.
Zhikarizhen gave a long laugh, raised his arms, and jumped into the Qinhuai River like a fish.
The water splashed, and the Jiankang night sky was as bright as smoke.
