Chapter three hundred and twentieth eight concessions
Under Shouzheng's special instructions, Taoist boys soon sent some rare and exotic fruits one after another, as well as a small pot of "ice and fire elixir" that almost embarrassed Lin Ze.
After a while, Xuan Ming, with a gloomy face, found a seat in the hall and sat down without saying a word. Apart from smiling at Lin Ze, he didn't even have a good look towards Shouzheng.
Obviously, Shouzheng secretly sent someone to invite Xuan Ming back, just to help convince Lin Ze at the critical moment.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Shouzheng raised his glass and gestured to Lin Ze: "The sages have come to the Taoist Palace, and everyone in our Taoist Palace has benefited a lot. Pindao is busy with affairs, and it is rude to not entertain him well, so Pindao is here."
Punish yourself with a drink.”
After saying that, he swallowed the entire bottle of "Ice Fire Elixir" in one gulp, and a trace of flush appeared on his thin face.
Lin Ze then returned the greeting and said: "The Palace Master is too polite. I am so grateful to you for taking care of me from the Palace Master and the elders. I would like to repay you with this cup."
After speaking, he drank up his bottle of "Ice and Fire Elixir" without changing his expression.
Seeing this, Xuan Ming stood up suddenly, held the wine bottle, walked to Lin Ze and said: "Sir, before I met you, I, Xuan Ming, asked myself that I had never owed anyone anything in my life, but what happened to the sage when he came here this time made me
I feel very guilty, I really can’t help you, so I’d like to toast you with this cup.”
In the same way, he drank up a cup of "Ice and Fire Elixir" in one gulp.
After hearing this, Lin Ze slowly stood up from the table and said with a sincere face: "Based on Elder Xuanming's words, I, Lin Ze, feel that I have not helped the wrong person. Come, you and I have a drink together."
After speaking, Lin Ze filled their wine bottles, gestured slightly, and drank the second glass in one gulp.
Xuan Ming said with excitement: "Thank you for your respect, the sage. Pindao hereby promises that as long as Pindao is still alive, he will not let the sage suffer any more injustice in the Tao Palace."
Shouzheng was confused on the spot, and couldn't help but think to himself: Elder Xuanming, I invited you here to be a lobbyist. When you arrive, you stood on the opposite side before I opened my mouth.
Tongde on the side almost jumped up. It was not like Shouzheng warned him privately not to talk nonsense. He might have pointed at Xuanming's nose and scolded him.
Lin Ze smiled and said: "That's natural. As the elder of the Dao Palace, is it possible that Elder Xuanming will let me suffer in the Dao Palace?"
Shouzheng was deeply afraid that the chat between Xuan Ming and Lin Ze would get worse later on, which would be more detrimental to his house, so he said at the right time: "If the sage is comfortable here, why don't you stay for a few more days before leaving?"
Lin Ze sighed and said, "I don't want to stay permanently, but I really have to leave. I hope the master of the palace can forgive me."
Xuan Ming turned his head when he heard this and glared at Tongde fiercely, as if to say, if you weren't a villain who instigated the palace lord to force the sage, how could you force him away?
Tongde felt that he was very unjust. After all, he didn't do anything. He probably reacted too fiercely. After all, he was the reincarnation of a sage. He was arrogant and couldn't bear any grievance.
Shouzheng only felt a toothache. The sage kept saying he wanted to leave without giving himself any extra chance. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel cruel and said directly: "I implore the sage to stay a few more days to save my Taoist palace from danger."
among.”
Lin Ze pretended to be shocked and said: "What does the palace master mean by this? This palace is fine, why is it in danger?"
Besides, if the palace master is too concerned about me, I may not be able to help you with the crisis that even the Dao Palace cannot solve."
Shouzheng let out a long sigh: "Please ask the sages to listen to the poor Taoist and explain slowly."
"To be honest with the sages, the original Taoist founder of Taoist Palace in the past built the Taoist Palace on the top of Kunlun Mountain, simply because he valued this precious land to be full of vitality and conducive to spiritual practice.
Since the top of the Kunlun Mountains is not suitable for living due to the constant snowstorms and strong winds, the Patriarch led his disciples to set up numerous formations within dozens of miles to keep out the bad weather, thus becoming a Taoist holy land."
"Nowadays, after thousands of years, under the erosion of endless years, the formations set up by the ancestors have long been dilapidated, and it is expected that it will be difficult to survive another hundred years.
Once the formation fails, the entire Taoist palace will completely disappear from the world under the snowstorm, so Pindao implores the sages to help and repair the formation so that the Taoist palace can survive this crisis."
"As long as the sages are willing to help, Pindao is willing to open the treasure house of the Tao Palace and allow the sages to go in and select three treasures. Don't worry, sages, any item in the treasure house is enough to make a strong master-level person's heart flutter."
Lin Ze touched his chin. It seemed that the problem with the formation of the Dao Palace was more serious than he thought. In this way, he had a greater chance of directly obtaining the formation diagram of the Dao Palace.
This treasure that even the Grand Master is excited about is really exciting.
Therefore, Lin Ze solemnly said: "Since the Palace Master has said this, no matter what, I will try my best.
How about this, the palace master will hand over the formation diagram in the Dao Palace to me, and after I study it carefully, I will see if I can help repair it. What do you think, palace master?"
After hearing this, Tongde couldn't help but said: "The formation diagram is of great importance. It is up to Pindao to repair the formation, and the sages will help."
Lin Ze flatly refused and said: "In this case, I apologize for my inability to do anything. Without the formation diagram, I can't repair and perfect the formation simply by relying on others to convey it."
"Besides, with the formation cultivation of the elder of your palace, I'm really worried that I can't even explain what's wrong with the formation. In this case, let alone me, even if the saint is alive, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do.
.”
"If the Dao Palace insists on doing this, then I really don't dare to participate in order to save my own reputation."
To put it simply, your Taoist palace elder’s formation cultivation is too poor. I’m afraid that it won’t be able to cultivate well when the time comes and it will implicate me. It’s better to give me the formation chart to see for myself.
Tongde was ironic that his face turned blue and white, but he was speechless. Who made his formation cultivation so poor that he could not repair the formation, otherwise he would be so passive.
After hearing this, Shouzheng weighed the pros and cons. Even if the formation diagram was leaked by Lin Ze, there were still two grandmasters in the Dao Palace, so there was no need to worry about enemies coming.
If the formation is not repaired well, the Kunlun Taoist Palace will really disappear from this world, so he promised: "Please rest assured, sage, the formation map will be sent to you later."
Lin Ze nodded and said: "Yes. I would like to remind you that the more complete the formation diagram is, the greater the possibility of repairing the formation. Please also ask the Palace Master to provide as complete a formation diagram as possible."
Xuan Ming spoke at the right time: "Please rest assured, sage, if someone hides and tucks away the formation, causing our Tao Palace formation to be unable to be repaired, I, Xuan Ming, will be the first to let him go."
After saying that, he looked at Tongde coldly, as if you don't want to do anything bad.
Shouzheng said with a serious face: "This matter is related to the safety of our Dao Palace, so Pindao will naturally cooperate with all his strength."
