In the Zhenwu Hall, Mei Qinglian, Pang Hu and Tang Yayan Bugui and other senior officials of the Zhenwu Hall were present, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
What Xiang Long announced in the early dynasty today was actually a strategy formulated not only against Chu Xiu, but also against Beiyan Jianghu and Eastern Qi.
Check and balance each other and win in chaos.
But Chu Xiu’s Zhenwu Hall was the one most affected.
With the introduction of Taoism and Buddhism, the three parties will definitely have an impact on the entire Beiyan Wulin. No matter how restraint these three parties are, it is useless. Even Chu Xiu does not believe that he can restrain himself, let alone the Taoism and Buddhism.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Tang Ya said with a smile: "I tell you guys, there is no need to be so serious, right? In fact, this is a good thing. By doing this, Xiang Long is equivalent to elevating us adults to be on par with Taoism and Buddhism.
It’s such an honor.”
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said: "Tang Ya is right, there is indeed no need to be so serious.
Xiang Long did this because he was actually forced to have no choice but to use this move.
The first person to panic should not be us, but Xiang Long.
Pass on the order, there is no need to panic in the Zhenwu Hall, what you did before is what you will do now, just be careful about someone doing it secretly."
"Then what should we do next?" Mei Qinglian asked.
Chu Xiu squinted his eyes and said, "Just stay the same to cope with the ever-changing situation. Let's go find out when the Daguangming Temple, Chunyang Daomen and Jiangshan Pavilion will enter the city?
As half the owner of this place, Xiang Long may not have the energy to greet him, so we have to go and greet him no matter what."
Mei Qinglian nodded. With Chu Xiu's instructions, it was easier to handle. One discussion and all the matters were settled in less than half a quarter of an hour.
Like during the time when Chu Xiu was away, although everyone didn't quarrel with each other, they were still undecided and didn't know who to listen to.
Mei Qinglian has both seniority and status, and Pang Hu is also on her side, but she cannot replace Chu Xiu after all.
Tang Ya and Yan Bugui, the old men under Chu Xiu, also had great prestige, and it was impossible to get them to completely obey Mei Qinglian's command.
Now that Chu Xiu is the backbone, everything can be solved with just a few words.
A few days later, in front of the city gate of Beiyan East City, Chu Xiu sat on the city tower with such a calm expression, and the general guarding the city broke out in a cold sweat.
Although he also holds the title of general, he is just a gatekeeper, not even as good as a lieutenant in the fifth army of Zhenguo.
He has naturally heard of the name of the Governor of the Zhenwu Hall. It should be said that there are few people in the entire Beiyan who have not heard of Chu Xiu's name. Of course, most of them have evil names.
The chief governor of the Zhenwu Hall did not go to supervise the entire Jianghu, but he came here to compete with him for work. He stood here guarding the city gate for a long time, which put him under a lot of pressure.
"Are you sure that Daguangming Temple, Chunyang Daomen and Jiangshan Pavilion are all entered into the city here?" Chu Xiu asked Tang Ya on the side.
Tang Ya quickly said: "Of course, sir, you can question my strength, but you cannot question my ability to do things.
It took me three meals of wine to find out this news from the godson of Eunuch Han, the godson of the chief internal officer.
His Majesty doesn't have the energy to go from house to house to meet them right now, so he arranged it for this day, which must be the east gate."
Chu Xiu's face looked a little strange: "The godson of the eunuch's godson? Isn't that still a eunuch? You invited the eunuch to drink wine and told me to get the job done?"
Tang Ya shrugged and said, "No one stipulates that eunuchs can't drink flower wine, right? What if that's all they like? Although he doesn't have that thing down there, there are many things he can use all over his body, such as
…”
"Shut up!"
Before Tang Ya could finish what he said, he was interrupted by Chu Xiu. He was the majestic Grand Governor of the Martial Arts Hall, a famous demon lord, and he was discussing with Tang Ya what a eunuch could do in a brothel. Tsk, it was so insulting to the gentlemen.
At this moment, Chu Xiu's eyes suddenly froze when he saw groups of people walking in from a distance, and Tang Ya also put away his playful smile and became extremely serious.
People from Daguangming Temple, Chunyang Daomen and Jiangshan Pavilion are here!
There are two people taking the lead of Chunyang Taoist Sect this time, one is Xiyunzi, and the other is an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard, but with a somewhat ferocious appearance.
The foundation of Chunyang Dao Sect is very strong, even stronger than that of the Zhenwu Sect, but no matter how strong the foundation is, it cannot withstand such consumption. Over the years, Chunyang Dao Sect has lost many senior warriors, even the leader of the six masters protecting the palace.
Chang Yunzi died in the hands of Chu Xiu, and now I am afraid that even the six real people protecting the palace cannot be together.
Therefore, Ling Yunzi, as the headmaster, could not come to establish the branch in Beiyan, so he could only send a senior disciple like Xi Yunzi to come.
But even though Xi Yunzi was old enough and still had Lu Zu's divine weapon Chunyang in his hands, he was still in the True Alchemy realm after all, so Ling Yunzi invited the old Taoist priest out again.
This person's identity is not ordinary, he is Shouzhenzi, the last person of the "true" generation in the Chunyang Taoist sect.
It’s not that this person lived a long time, but that he was the youngest among the previous generation of true characters, and he had gone to the barrier of life and death decades ago.
Originally, everyone in the Chunyang Dao Sect thought that the other party was dead, and planned to forcefully open the secret room and bury him when his time came in a few years.
But who would have thought that the other party suddenly came out of seclusion some time ago. Although he did not break through to the realm of heaven and earth, his cultivation level has also improved slightly, making up for the hidden injuries he suffered before, and he has gained some longevity.
Shouzhenzi raised his head and looked at the city of Beiyan, sighed and said: "Decades of years, a moment of youth.
I still remember that when I came to Beiyan with my senior brothers and others, the city of Yanjing was not so majestic, but I didn’t expect that it has the appearance of a big city now.”
Xi Yunzi said from the side: "Uncle Master, don't underestimate Bei Yan. A few decades ago, Bei Yan was still suppressed by Dong Qi. But not long after you closed the door on life and death, Bei Yan had already begun to counterattack Dong Qi. Now
Although it still cannot be compared with Dong Qi, it is still one of the three most powerful countries in the world.
This time the head brother agreed to cooperate with Beiyan because he also took a fancy to Beiyan's power.
In the Eastern Qi Dynasty, Zhenwu Sect is the state religion, but in Beiyan, our Taoist sect has not taken root here. If our Chunyang Taoist sect is the pioneer of the Taoist sect, we can still find a way out for the future."
Xiyunzi said this because she was afraid that Shouzhenzi would still look at Beiyan with the same old eyes, so as not to offend Beiyan before cooperating with Beiyan.
Shouzhenzi was not yet born when he entered the life and death barrier, but he heard from Ling Yunzi and several other old people from the Chunyang Taoist sect that this uncle Shouzhenzi seemed to have a very bad temper.
However, at this moment, Morumako looked at Yuyunzi with a kind and kind look in his eyes. He was not angry. He just nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know it, uncle."
It is true that Morimako had a very hot temper when he was young, but after being in seclusion for decades, even his hot temper was much suppressed by him.
And at this moment, Morimako looked at Yuunzi just like he looked at himself before.
I think back then, he was just like Yuyunzi, the youngest among his peers. His senior brothers were almost as old as his master, but he was also the most favored.
But after the changes, the master is gone, the senior brother is gone, and the youngest one has become the oldest old monster. This feeling is not pleasant.
At this time, Xiyunzi pursed his lips and said, "People from Daguangming Temple are here too."
Shouzhenzi took a look, and the kind smile on his face turned into disdain: "These monks have not changed at all after decades. They still like grand ostentation, and they like to do this kind of face-saving thing."
Compared to the few old Taoist priests and the dozen or so junior Taoist priests at Chunyang Taoist Sect, Daguangming Temple is undoubtedly much more beautiful.
Xu Yan, the first of the six martial arts academies of Daguangming Temple, brought people here personally, and he brought not just one person, but the disciples of the entire Vajra Academy.
Xuyan had already entered the True Fire God Refining Realm not long ago, so he was naturally qualified to come to Beiyan to establish a branch.
In fact, there is another person in Daguangming Temple who is more qualified than Xuyan, and that is Xudu.
In terms of status, Xudu is the first of the three major meditation halls, and its status is naturally half a step higher than the six major martial arts schools.
Moreover, after Xudu teamed up with Chu Xiu to kill Yuan Tianfang, there were actually signs of a breakthrough. However, he practiced martial arts in a special way and did not want to take an ordinary path, so he deliberately suppressed his cultivation.
Nowadays, Xudu has actually entered the Real Fire God Refining Realm, but he has never publicized it. Instead, he is in seclusion in Daguangming Temple to stabilize his cultivation.
Of course, the more important thing is that with Xudu's unreliable character, Daguangming Temple is also very doubtful that letting the other party come to Beiyan to establish a branch will make a mess.
Therefore, the senior officials in Daguangming Temple discussed it and decided that it would be better to let Xu Yan, the more reliable leader, take over.
Moreover, Xu Yan also specially brought two old monks, two old monks of the ‘Jing’ generation who had already practiced in seclusion in Daguangming Temple, and both had the strength of the True Fire God Refining Realm.
The strategy of Daguangming Temple has always been that one generation manages the affairs of the other. Unlike Taoist sects, the people in charge can be found from old Celestial Masters who are hundreds of years old to people of the younger generation like Zhang Chengzhen.
After Daguangming Temple's Xu generation began to take over, all the Jing generation warriors were almost old. Moreover, Daguangming Temple did not have the habit of accepting apprentices on behalf of teachers, so it would produce little masters like Xi Yunzi.
.
Therefore, all the warriors of that generation retired to the Bodhi Forest in the back mountain, and would only come out to teach some disciples during their free time.
In fact, the most terrifying thing about Daguangming Temple is not the monks from the three major meditation halls and the six major martial arts academies, but rather these retired monks who have no interest in worldly affairs.
Only when Daguangming Temple truly encounters a life-and-death crisis will these seemingly aging old monks take action. At that time, it is time for Daguangming Temple to show its true strength.
This time Daguangming Temple sent two old monks from the Jing generation to guard the Beiyan branch, which was enough to show that they attached great importance to it.
