The off-road vehicle with a lot of dirt on the body slowly stopped on the road in front of the mountain under the watchful eyes of a group of Taoist priests in gold and purple robes, disciples in green and black robes, and ordinary attire staff of the Religious Affairs Bureau.
Everyone cheered and surrounded the car.
Su Wu walked out of the car and could only distinguish the facial features of the people around him. He was held by an old man with white hair and white beard in his hands: "Su Ju is really young and promising. Last time Su Ju came, I couldn't get along with him."
It’s a pity to see Bureau Su,
Now I finally saw Bureau Su in person, and it was exactly as I imagined..."
The old man held Su Wu's hand and began to chat with Su Wu in a very familiar manner.
He was all smiles,
The eyes looking at Su Wu were flickering,
He didn't dare to meet Su Wu's eyes at all, he was very timid.
Su Wu only glanced at him and knew exactly what he was thinking - the 'Longhu Mountain Encasing Incident' had just begun to emerge from the Tianshi Mansion. This incident had extremely serious consequences in the surrounding areas.
At present, Xuanmen has solved many special events. As the director of Xuanmen, I went to Longhu Mountain again. In everyone's eyes, it has the meaning of "invoking an army to investigate crimes and settle accounts after the fall".
How could the Tianshi Mansion, which had already taken the blame for this matter, not be afraid of his arrival?
But even though he didn't want him to come over, he wanted to come over and have a look, but no one could stop him. The Heavenly Master could only greet him shamelessly and make friends, hoping that he would take a "lenient approach" to the matter.
The ‘Longhu Mountain Conferment Incident’ involves many things.
It is extremely difficult for local Taoist priests who have never mastered the true Taoism to discern clues from it.
It’s not so much that they should be held responsible for this matter.
Rather, they are also victims of this matter.
After listening to the old Taoist priest holding Su Wu's palm and exchanging pleasantries, Su Wu knew that the other party was not a sociable person either, so he just had to deal with the situation.
He shook his head, took his hand away from the old Taoist priest, and turned to the members of the religious affairs bureau who introduced the identity of the old Taoist priest beside him and said: "Longhu Mountain is involved in a special incident such as the invasion of Ligui. This palace can only be closed temporarily."
stop.
It can no longer be opened to the public.
The Xuan Sect Master will stay here from now on."
"Ah, yes.
This is what it should be, it should be!" The staff of the Religious Affairs Bureau nodded repeatedly.
When the old Taoist priest heard that Su Wu's first words after getting out of the car were what to do with the Taoist temple where he had practiced for most of his life, he looked sad. However, he heard Su Wu say again at this moment: "The Taoist priest who originally practiced in Longhu Mountain
, you can choose to branch off to other Taoist temples to practice in the future.
Or transfer to Xuanmen, and after passing the assessment, become a member of Xuanmen.
Assist the Trickster in guarding this palace."
As soon as these words came out, the old Taoist priest's heart moved, and he silently exchanged glances with the Taoist priests behind him who were all wearing golden and purple robes. You could see the surprise and joy in the eyes of the brothers.
He thought of the news that spread rapidly in that Taoist sect—the Taoist sect may have a talisman to practice the righteous method!
My heart suddenly brightened up.
The old Taoist priest calmed down, nodded, and said to Su Wu: "Everything is subject to Xuanmen's arrangements. We will not shirk anything that requires our cooperation."
"There is an issue at the moment that requires the cooperation of the Tianshi Mansion." Su Wu smiled and said to the old Taoist priest, "Before and after that incident of conferring burial mounds to ordinary people, were there any new disciples who worshiped at the gate of Longhu Mountain?
Who chose to invite those batches of talismans given to ordinary people at the Wanfa Zong altar?"
The old Taoist priest heard this and looked at the purple-robed Taoist priest behind him.
The Taoist priest took a step forward slightly and replied with Su Wu: "Longhu Mountain will only accept a few disciples after passing on the rituals over the years. The rituals have not yet started. It can be determined that in recent months,
There are no new disciples who worship at the mountain gate.
As for looking after the Ten Thousand Fa Sect Altar and requesting talismans for the people, it has always been the job of the Great Altar Protector."
As soon as the purple-robed Taoist finished speaking,
Another purple-robed Taoist priest beside him bowed to Su Wu, with a look of apology and anxiety on his face: "The more than a thousand talismans that caused problems this time were all talismans that I stood up to ask the ancestor to consecrate and enlighten.
"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Su Wu secretly.
Su Wu glanced at the Great Altar Protector of Longhu Mountain and recognized that he was the Altar Protector who helped him confer the 'Ten Thousand Methods Altar'.
Neither of them lied. Su Wu nodded and led a group of Taoist priests to Longhu Mountain. While walking up, he continued to ask several Taoist priests in charge: "Since in recent months, everyone has
No new disciples came to worship at the mountain gate.
Then have any disciples left the mountain gate to practice or work elsewhere?"
The purple-robed Taoist priest who had just responded to Su Wu lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No."
"No?" Su Wu didn't say much, and said to the staff of the Religious Affairs Bureau next to him, "Bring out the Taoist change records of Longhu Mountain and give me a copy."
"Okay." The staff of the Religious Affairs Bureau nodded.
Su Wu didn't suspect that the purple-robed Taoist priest was lying - his mind was enough to 'see' everyone's mental activities at the moment, and he could tell at a glance whether the other party was lying.
It is certain that what the purple-robed Taoist said was true and he did not lie.
But sometimes people's perception is not necessarily correct, and some things can deceive people's perception.
Judgments made by people based on correct cognition are naturally correct with a high probability.
But if the answer is given based on wrong perceptions, the answer will most likely be wrong.
Not long after, the staff of the Bureau of Religious Affairs handed Su Wu a thick book and said to Su Wu: "This is the record of changes made by the Taoist priests at Longhu Mountain in the past year. They are all sealed in the original files.
If a Taoist priest fails to do morning or evening classes or sign in on a certain day,
It’s all recorded.”
"Thank you." Su Wu took the book and flipped through the various records in the thick book at will.
The pages of the book turned quickly in his hands,
It's hard to be sure he's actually browsing the records on it.
Within a few minutes, he had 'read' the entire book, looked at the purple-robed Taoist priest in charge of Longhu Mountain's personnel, and asked him: "Zhou Ze, Wang Zhixian, Li Juan, Wu Mingming, Quan An, Zhuo
Wanyou... these six Taoist priests haven't had morning and evening classes on Longhu Mountain for a while, right?
It happened to be the same day after the burial ceremony at Longhu Mountain, and the six people never appeared on the mountain again.
Where did they go?
You have no impression of this matter?"
The purple-robed Taoist priest in charge of personnel frowned and pondered for a long time. He raised his eyes and looked at Su Wu, and said: "My memory has always been very good. I remember the names of everyone up and down Longhu Mountain. Who is it?"
I can tell at a glance whether I have done morning or evening classes.
It makes no sense for six people to be missing for so long at the same time.
I didn't notice it at all.
The names of these six people... I have never heard of them!"
There was especially deep confusion in the eyes of the purple-robed Taoist priest. Su Wu turned to look at the other purple-robed Taoist priests. Everyone shook their heads. From the change book, he found the garden houses where the six people lived, and asked about the six people.
Other fellow Taoists who live together,
None of those people were impressed!
"There have always been three people living in our garden, and I have never heard of this fellow Taoist named Zhou Ze."
"Yes, if Li Juan lived in the same garden with us, she would have left luggage in the garden if she left in such a hurry. But you can go to our garden and have a look. There is nothing related to Li Juan.
Juan-related items!”
"..."
Everyone swears by it.
No one has lied.
Now, the book in Su Wu's hand, which was specially recorded by an attendance machine and compiled by a computer, looked like it was forged by someone with intentions to undermine the current Longhu Mountain Group Road.
The staff of the Religious Affairs Bureau was a little confused. He had never thought that such a situation would happen.
In the frank words of everyone, he also realized that the current situation was a bit strange, and said to Su Wu: "It doesn't matter, if this book is not accurate, as long as these six people were really approved Taoist priests, there will be in the sect system
Their Taoist scriptures!
I'll check it out!"
He took out his mobile phone and immediately logged into the Zongshi system app.
After some operations, he handed the phone to Su Wu.
There are indeed Taoist records of Zhou Ze, Wang Zhixian and others left in the system.
But all the Taoist priests still claimed that they had never seen those six Taoist priests!
Things became more and more weird. Su Wu and Yun Nichang looked at each other, and Yun Nichang said: "I'll go to the garden where they used to live to collect clues——"
"Need not."
Su Wu shook his head and interrupted Yun Nishang's words.
The energy between his eyebrows surged silently, the bright sun slowly rotated in his mind, and colorless and invisible 'light' burst out from the pores around his body, forming a round wheel around him in an instant.
This great sun formed by the gathering of thoughts,
In an instant, it rose to the back of Su Wu's head, reflecting the figures behind him who were related to the 'missing six Taoist priests' and who were listed as 'roommates' in the book, and then turned all of these people's figures into blue smoke.
Trace everyone's memory along the wisps of smoke.
On the bright sun,
Covered with many memory shadow imprints,
Many imprints gradually covered the entire sun, and the bright sun was crumbling. Fortunately, at the moment before the sun fell, Su Wu searched the memories of those who were related to the missing Six Taoist Priests.
He can now see many memories of ordinary people in front of him with just one thought.
Now I gather all my mental energy to reflect the related memories of more than 20 or 30 Taoist priests related to the missing six Taoist priests. Although it is a bit reluctant, it can finally be completed.
Searching through the memories of these twenty or thirty people,
Su Wu discovered that there was indeed no trace of the six missing Taoist priests in their memories.
However, in their memories, there were many signs of "wrong splicing" and "taking the crown for granted".
"In recent years, Longhu Mountain has built fewer gardens for Taoist priests to live in.
The garden has always been quite tense.
Why is it that your garden has four beds but only one can be left vacant?
During the years you have been practicing on the mountain, this bed has never been occupied?" Su Wu looked at the three Taoist priests related to 'Zhou Ze' and suddenly asked.
