Chapter 230 Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters (two chapters in one)
Master Xue immediately knew that someone in the outside world was pretending to be his disciple.
This is not a big deal.
She was about to ask Lan Ze when suddenly a loud roar came from outside, followed by a vigorous voice:
"The Prime Minister of Tubo, Xiye Gyaintsen, came to pay a visit to Mo Xuezong on the orders of Zanpu!"
"Xiye Gyaltsen, please open the mountain and grant me a visit!"
Listening to the voice, it was a real strong man, just outside the Moxue Sect's mountain gate formation.
But the dignified Prime Minister of Tubo, a real and powerful man, actually behaved in a humble manner outside the Moxue Sect.
Master Xuezhen frowned, "The Tubo people are here again, but they are gone. Our Moxue Sect is a hidden sect, how can outsiders come just as they say."
The fifth elder said: "Sect Master, the Prime Minister of Tibet seems to have something important to do, why not listen? They have come to give gifts for so many years."
Zhuo Zhenren also said: "Let's meet. In a few decades, this world will be dead. If we meet today, we will settle the matter."
As a result, everyone immediately forgot about the small matter of Luo Ning pretending to be a disciple of Master Xue.
However, Master Xue did not immediately agree to let the Prime Minister of Tibet enter the mountain gate, but asked in a manly voice:
"Why did you enter my mountain gate?"
Her voice was not loud, but it was sent out of the mountain gate very clearly.
In the vast clouds outside the mountain gate, there stood a dignified old man in white, standing like a god. His cultivation was as perfect as that of a real person!
It is the most important person in Tubo after Zanpu: the Prime Minister!
How noble is the status of the Prime Minister of Tubo? But at this moment, Sinye Gyaltsen's expression was not calm, but had a hint of anxiety.
Over the years, Zanpu would send people to the snow wall at the foot of Moxue Mountain every ten years to bring a large number of offerings to the Moxue Sect.
Spiritual stones, spiritual food, spiritual wine, spiritual tea, spiritual materials...all are of the highest quality.
The royal court worships the Moxue Sect just like it worships the Bodhisattva.
Of course, this is not because Wang Ting is afraid of Mo Xuezong, but because he wants to form a good relationship, which will be effective at the critical moment.
But Wang Ting was not sure whether Mo Xuezong would help.
Hearing Master Xue's words at this time, Xiye Gyaltsen quickly replied:
"Fellow Taoist of the Moxue Sect! The Tubo Kingdom is in danger, and its fate is precarious!"
Xuezhen said: "What does your country's affairs have to do with my sect? This sect has come to hide in the world and does not care about the affairs of the world. Since ancient times, all countries will perish. This is the destiny of heaven and earth."
In a word, whether Tubo is destroyed or not is none of my business.
When Zhuo Zhenren and others heard this, they all smiled slightly and didn't take it seriously.
The Prime Minister of Tubo couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.
What you said makes sense. But, over the years, Wang Ting has given so many top-notch resources, why didn't you say no?
Why did everyone accept it?
The so-called taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others. You have received so many benefits from Tubo, but now that Tubo is in trouble, you have become a hidden master again?
Even though I am a majestic and perfect person, and I came here in person on the king's order, I can't even enter the mountain gate to have a cup of tea?
"Fellow Taoist!" said the Tibetan Prime Minister, "The death of Tubo is indeed a common thing for Mo Xuezong, but the Tusman people are not as easy to talk to as the Tubo people."
"If they occupy Tubo, they will definitely come to disturb Mo Xuezong..."
"Fellow Taoist, for the sake of being of the Eastern lineage, please..."
Master Xuezhen shook his head slightly, "That's all, let's make an exception and invite him in. Anyway, I want a cup of tea."
"Junior sister Zhuo, please send Lan Ze to your palace first. After receiving the Tibetan Prime Minister, I will summon them both."
"Okay." Master Zhuo stood up, grabbed Samblanze and disappeared into the Immortal Snow Palace.
The next moment, she took Samblanze back to her Taoist palace.
"That is my nephew, who is also the disciple of the sect master. He is considered your senior brother." Zhuo Zhenren pointed at Luo Ning in the pool, "You talk to him first, the sect master will summon you soon."
Zhuo Zhenren just gave an order and disappeared from the Dao Palace, heading to the Immortal Snow Palace for a meeting.
"Senior brother?" Samblanze was startled, then slowly walked towards the pool, and found that the figure looked very familiar.
The young man on the pool platform suddenly turned around.
The two people's eyes immediately collided.
Luo Ning trembled and looked steadily at Lan Ze.
This...isn't this Sangbuyundan's concubine, Lanze?
By the way, Lu Pianpian said in the future that Lan Ze later joined Mo Xuezong and followed Mo Xuezong to the fairy world!
In the fairy world, Lan Ze also helped Lu Pianpian. Making friends with Lan Ze would definitely be beneficial and harmless.
"It's really Luo Ning!" Lan Ze immediately showed a sweet smile and was about to say hello.
Luo Ning secretly thought something was wrong, but his reaction was also very quick.
"Lan Ze!" Luo Ning spoke up first, "I never thought that I, Zhuo Yun, would be able to see you here. What a fate."
Lanze's sweet smile suddenly froze.
What? Zhuo Yun? Isn’t his name Luo Ning?
Luo Ning saw the Tubo girl's confused eyes and laughed:
"Lan Ze, let's get acquainted again. I am Zhuo Yun, whose nickname is Luo Ning. Oh, we Xia men all have the same name."
It turns out that Luoning is his font name! Lanze suddenly showed an "I understand" look.
Of course she knew that Xia men often have two names, one is their surname and the other is their cousin.
For example, the famous Zhuge Wuhou among the Xia people was named both Zhuge Liang and Kong Ming.
That's correct.
"It turns out to be Senior Brother Luo...Zhuo!" Lan Ze smiled politely and jumped onto the pool platform.
"Come!" Luo Ning took Lan Ze's hand, pressed her on the stone bench, and poured her a cup of tea with his own hands, very warmly and politely.
Lan Ze looked at the Hantan female corpse on the side, looking a little frightened, "Senior Brother Zhuo, she..."
She felt that this woman did not look like a living person and looked a bit strange.
"It's okay, she won't harm you, you don't have to be afraid." Luo Ning said gently, "By the way, why did you call me senior brother?"
Lan Ze suddenly smiled and said, "Master Xuezhen has accepted me as his disciple. Aren't you also her disciple? So you are my senior brother."
"Just now Master Zhuo brought me here and said you were my senior brother."
Luo Ning's heart skipped a beat, "You, have you seen her?"
He thought secretly: Why did my aunt say that I am Senior Brother Lanze? Could it be that... Master Xue also wants to accept me as his disciple?
By the way! It must be because of the fairy envoys! They want to take advantage of me.
"Of course!" Lan Ze took a sip of tea, "Master said that I am the purest bloodline descendant of the Can family and will soon awaken my bloodline, so she accepted me as a disciple."
Luo Ning looked natural, her heart pounding, "Then...junior sister, have you mentioned me in front of Master?"
Lan Ze smiled and said: "I mentioned it. I said you were the Lord of Longcuo City..."
What? Luo Ning's face turned green, his brows couldn't help but tremble, and he wanted to punch his "junior sister"!
After Lan Ze said this, he continued to drink tea. Obviously he had never drank this kind of top-quality spiritual tea, so he was very happy to drink it.
"No more? What else is there?" Luo Ning asked, holding back his temper.
Lan Ze raised his big dark eyes, "What else? Oh, the Prime Minister of Tibet suddenly came to visit, so I didn't say anything."
"What's wrong, senior brother, is there something wrong?"
Luo Ning said "Oh", "It's okay, I just asked casually. Er, what is the Prime Minister of Tibet doing here?"
Lan Ze stretched out the teacup and said, "Senior brother, can you pour me another cup of tea?"
Luo Ning chuckled, gritted his teeth secretly, and slowly poured tea for Lan Ze, "What is the Prime Minister of Tibet doing here?"
"Come to ask for help." Lan Ze picked up the tea cup, his bright face a little worried, "Tubo has suffered a huge defeat again, and the west is almost unable to bear it."
"So he came here asking for help."
When Luo Ning heard this, his heart sank slightly.
If Tubo dies now, it will not be a good thing for him. Anyway, Tubo will have to resist for several years.
Luo Ning looked at this "junior sister" with thoughts in his mind and said:
"Junior sister, does your father know that you are coming to Mo Xuezong? It is very dangerous for a girl like you to go such a long way, and your heart is sinister."
Lan Ze is indeed simple, and there is no doubt that he has his answer:
"Whatever, I came out on my own. Huh, my dad doesn't care about me and never cares about me. Even if I die outside, he won't be sad."
Having said this, he looked a little sad.
Luo Ning understood. It was not Sangbuyundan who sent her to Moxue Sect. Sangbuyundan probably didn't know.
"Junior sister, don't worry." Luo Ning looked concerned, "Your dad doesn't care about you, isn't he still your senior brother?"
"As long as we, brothers and sisters, help each other, stay in the same boat, and unite as one..."
Lan Ze's eyes lit up and he nodded:
"Senior brother is right. I know that senior brother is actually a good person. He is not as lustful as they say..."
Luo Ning had a black line on his head and his smile remained unchanged, "Junior sister still understands me. But I am a senior brother, so you should always listen to me. Junior sister must be obedient. What do you think, junior sister?"
Lan Ze thought for a moment in a daze, then nodded slowly and said:
"I think so. What senior brother said makes sense. Well, I try to listen to what senior brother says."
Luo Ning smiled, "Junior sister is so smart. You are so good, but your dad still doesn't like you. You are really the stupidest dad in the world."
After saying that, he took out a beaded flower left by Ming Zhao from his ring and said, "This is a meeting gift for Junior Sister. Junior Sister, don't be polite."
"This..." Lan Ze hesitated for a moment, then accepted the third-grade beaded flower jewelry, his eyes moistened, "Thank you, senior brother... No one has ever given me such a good thing."
Although she is a young lady from the Jiedushi Mansion, she has never been favored. In addition, her qualifications are very poor, so her resource consumption is the worst among her brothers and sisters.
Sambuyundan ignored her, and she herself was abused by her brothers and sisters. Even the high-status retainers in the government dared to look down on her.
But today, her senior brother actually gave her such a precious pearl flower, which made her feel warmer than she had ever felt before.
Although Luo Ning felt a little distressed, he was very happy on the surface and waved his hand:
"What does this mean? Junior sister, you are serious. If senior brother has any good things in the future, he will not forget you. Are senior brothers and sisters close to each other?"
Lan Ze quickly expressed his position: "Well, if I have any good things in the future, I will not forget my senior brother. Senior brothers and junior sisters are a family."
There was actually a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Luo Ning finally figured it out. Although this Tubo girl was extremely smart, she was really simple-minded.
Maybe she had a low status in Jiedu Mansion and had never been coaxed before, so she was easy to coax.
To put it bluntly, the touching value is very low.
"Senior brother." Lan Ze took out a thangka a little shyly, "My little sister doesn't have anything good. This is "Dreamland" that I embroidered by myself, so I gave it to senior brother."
She really doesn't have anything good, in fact she is very poor.
But she spent a lot of time embroidering this piece of "Dreamland".
For her, it is the best thing.
Luo Ning took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
This is a thangka over five feet wide, with palaces, landscapes, figures, clouds, monsters and beasts drawn on it. The embroidery is lifelike, very vivid and expressive, as if it has come alive.
What surprised Luo Ning even more was that this thangka embroidery showed an indescribable charm and tension, which was both ancient and fresh.
The palaces in the painting are grand and the figures are ancient and vigorous.
What is particularly eye-catching is the painting of a noble lady wearing a silkworm face mask.
This noble girl wears a high crown and a large cloak with a phoenix pattern. She has an ancient and noble demeanor, and she seems to be a king.
The scene in the painting is a grand ceremony being held.
"Junior sister, you thangka..." Luo Ning couldn't help being attracted by the thangka.
He could not have imagined that in Lan Ze's embroidery, he could actually see the silkworm face mask again.
Lanze explained: "Brother, this is the scene in my dream. Since I was nine years old, I have often had the same dream, which is very strange."
"Not only did I have the same dream repeatedly, but the things in the dream were very clear, just like what I had experienced."
"Buddhists say there are past lives and present lives. I wonder, is it my past life? Why do I dream about it repeatedly?"
"So, I embroidered all the scenes and characters in the dream and named it "Dreamland". For the red part, I used my own blood as paint."
"I didn't tell anyone about this. One time I wanted to tell my dad, but before I even opened my mouth, my dad got very impatient, so I had to keep my mouth shut."
"I ran away from home this time just to find the place in my dreams and see where it was."
Luo Ning nodded and said with emotion: "Junior sister, this dream thing may actually be your past life."
He spread out the thangka and pointed at the magnificent palace:
"I suspect that the palace in this dream may be related to the ancient Shu Kingdom, maybe it is the Canjing of the ancient Shu Kingdom."
Lanze also raised his head, looked at thangka, and said:
"I don't know. The person in the dream said very strange words. Although I can remember the pronunciation, I can't understand the meaning. It is an ancient language."
Luo Ning asked: "Junior sister, do you still remember the pronunciation? Tell me, listen to it."
Lan Ze thought for a while and said slowly: "An Hali Hongye, Brother Dao Hu Lu..."
"Thornton's Heavenly One, Luminous Ding's..."
Luo Ning used the magical translation power of Ling Daozhu, but it was: "The heavenly insects appear in the world, and they turn into butterflies and are reborn..."
"Live towards death and live forever..."
Could it be related to the Celestial Insect Dao Cocoon? There is too little information.
"Is there anything else?" Luo Ning asked.
Lan Ze shook his head, "No more. These words are repeated over and over again, as if they are praying. Senior brother, can you understand?"
Luo Ning shook his head and said: "How can I understand? I just think it's weird. Junior sister, if we search according to the memory of the mountains and rivers in the picture, maybe we can find the ruins."
Lan Ze sighed, "My little sister thinks so too, but there's no point in finding it, just to satisfy my curiosity."
Luo Ning looked at the winding landscape in the painting with thoughtful eyes.
He always felt that these mountains and rivers were a bit familiar, but he really couldn't remember where they were.
Luo Ning put away the painting and said, "Junior sister, thank you. I like your gift very much."
"Really?" Lan Ze couldn't help but smile brightly, with bright teeth and crooked black eyes, "Senior brother, just like it."
Luo Ning poured her another cup of tea and said casually:
"Junior sister, let me tell you something. Master rarely goes out, and she doesn't want to be known by her classmates."
"So, you must not mention that she has been to Longcuo City, and don't mention what happened with her in Shunzhou. Just pretend you don't know about those things, don't ask, just pretend to be confused."
Lan Ze nodded obediently: "Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me, my little sister knows."
You call the two of them senior brother, and he calls them junior sister. Those who don't know may think they are very familiar with each other.
Just after drinking a pot of tea, a voice suddenly sounded:
"You senior brothers and sisters are truly destined to be together. When we met, we had such a good conversation."
Before he finished speaking, a beauty in white stood in front of him with a smile.
"Aunt." Luo Ning stood up immediately.
"Lord Zhenjun." Lan Ze also quickly stood up.
Zhuo Zhen said: "The sect master will see you soon. Jun'er, come with me."
"Yes." Luo Ning followed Zhuo Zhenren, and Hantan female corpse automatically followed him.
Zhuo Zhenren could only shake his head and sigh as he looked at the inseparable immortal envoy following Luo Ning.
Entering another painting hall, Zhuo Zhenren said directly: "The clan wants to accept you as a disciple, do you know why?"
"I know." Luo Ning nodded, "Is it because the Immortal Envoy only listens to my words? For the Immortal Envoy, you accept me as your disciple?"
He felt very strange. He had pretended to be a disciple of Master Xue before, but now he would really be accepted as a disciple by Master Xue.
"You are very smart. This is also your destiny." Master Zhuo made no secret.
"The Immortal Envoy is very important to us. You must be of one mind with Mo Xuezong so that we can overcome the difficulties together."
"Of course, if you weren't my nephew, the sect leader would have many ways to deal with you, and there would be no need to accept you as a disciple."
When Luo Ning heard this, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
He believed what Zhuo Zhenren said.
With Xuezhenren's methods, it is easy to control oneself, and it is not necessary to accept disciples.
The gentle method of recruiting disciples must be for Zhuo Zhenren's sake.
Taking the risk of pretending to be Zhuo Yun is indeed worth it.
Zhuo Zhen said: "Next, my aunt will tell you some secrets. No matter how surprised you are, you must remember that what I say is true, and you must believe it."
PS: Dear readers, what secret will Master Zhuo reveal? That’s it for today. Good night, Crab!
