Qi Xuansu can drink. After all, the warrior's physique is here, and there is no problem in drinking poison. But Qi Xuansu doesn't like drinking. Sometimes when drinking, what you want is the word "drunk". When you are drunk, let go of your body and mind, and only need a moment of anesthesia.
Get a moment of peace. It is the martial arts body that succeeds and the martial arts body that fails. In other inheritances, there is a subjective choice. Whether to resist the power of alcohol or not, the body is completely passive. He cannot get drunk even if he wants to.
So after drinking a few glasses, Qi Xuansu stopped raising the glass and focused on drinking porridge. Most of the remaining bottle was given to Zhang Yuelu.
Zhang Yuelu refused, and poured wine into the luminous cup in front of Qi Xuansu.
While slowly pouring the wine, she read: "The luminous cup of grape wine, if you want to drink, play the pipa immediately. Jun Moxiao, who is lying drunk on the battlefield, how many people have fought in ancient times. Did you ever lie drunk on the battlefield this time during the Southern Continent?"
Qi Xuansu picked up the wine glass, touched it with Zhang Yuelu's, drank it all, and said, "How can I have such thoughts? The key is that without the right person, it would be boring to pour and drink by yourself."
Zhang Yuelu found it helpful, but said, "I've heard a long time ago that Chief Qi has a 'three no's' principle, which is not to have sex with women, not to drink alcohol, and not to accept any money."
Qi Xuansu smiled and said, "This is nothing. Chief Zhang is so powerful that he made me give up all three principles."
Zhang Yuelu was stunned for a moment, then picked up the empty wine glass and made a splashing gesture towards Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu is not a womanizer, so after becoming a Taoist couple, he will definitely get close to Zhang Yuelu. Qi Xuansu does not drink alcohol outside, so he still has to drink Zhang Yuelu's wine. Qi Xuansu does not accept a penny, and usually uses Zhang Yuelu's peace money. .?
?.
Zhang Yuelu put down the empty wine glass in his hand: "You...by the way, have you prepared a gift for Qiniang? If you forget Qiniang, you will be in trouble."
Qi Xuansu said, "How dare you forget her? She wants to find me when she has nothing to do. If I really want to give her an excuse, she can keep talking about this matter until she ascends and dies. My father-in-law, mother-in-law and Master Cihang,
I have also prepared gifts. As for Lao Lin, Master Donghua, and Master Qingwei, forget it this time. They know that I am poor, so I think they will understand."
Zhang Yuelu glanced at him, "I feel like you are coaxing a child. Prepare gifts for whoever cries and makes trouble."
Qi Xuansu laughed, "What I said, Qiniang, Xiaoyin, and mother-in-law are true. You, father-in-law, and Master Cihang still understand the righteousness. I am completely dividing them based on their closeness."
Zhang Yuelu laughed, "Ignore Xiao Yin, my mother and your mother, I have to tell them this."
Qi Xuansu coughed suddenly and quickly changed the topic
"Speaking of Xiao Yin, what is going on in the Wanxiang Dao Palace? Even Huangfu Liming, who is far away in the Southern Continent, has heard of your tyranny. Why did you give in this time?"
Zhang Yuelu frowned and said, "First, Xiao Yin is indeed not completely reasonable. He has a high regard for his teacher. There are mistakes even if he is right. Second, and the most important reason, anyone can see that there is something fishy in this.
I really don’t want Xiao Yin to be involved in it. If anything happens, just do it to me, why bother involving others."
Qi Xuansu stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Yuelu, "Qingxiao, you are a man with a Machiavellian appearance, but you are still soft-hearted. You will suffer a big loss if you do this."
Zhang Yuelu sighed and did not refute.
Qi Xuansu continued, "Do you still remember Xuan Sheng's favorite phrase?"
Zhang Yuelu said, "A man is determined to die. Let me try my hand to mend the cracks in the sky."
"Only with an iron heart can mend the cracks in the sky." Qi Xuansu said, "The path you are going to take is far more difficult than my path. Who are I dealing with? Westerners, Nanyang people, Japanese people. Then
What's not to be cruel about? My appearance is different, my language is different, my thoughts are different, I'm not from my race, so I feel at ease. Such external enemies can't do anything to my family, and they can't touch my weaknesses."
"But what about you? What you have to deal with is your own people. For example, if the Zhang family is involved, or the elders who took care of you when you were young, will you move? Stay still. You will not worry about the scarcity but the inequality. Those who are affected
The people whose interests you have harmed will definitely make a big fuss and ask why? If the reform becomes the elimination of dissidents and loses the blessing of moral justice, what can you do to continue to promote this matter? All previous efforts have been wasted. Move, preserve moral justice, and get close to each other.
But people like you want to poke your spine, saying that you are cold-blooded and not a human being. Even if they approve of you, they must also add that they will never be friends with people like you. You will end up alone."
"These are still minor. After all, you are one of our own, that is, you have me in you, and you have me in you. Your weaknesses are undefended, and it is easy to find them. Destroying people's wealth is like killing your parents. How do you still count on these people?
Can I tell you any rules and morals? Today they can take advantage of Xiao Yin, and tomorrow they can take advantage of your parents if they are in a hurry. Don't tell me that the Zhang family is protecting them. What if the person who takes action comes from within the Zhang family?"
Zhang Yuelu was speechless.
Of course she understood this truth, but she had underestimated some situations.
Qi Xuansu continued
"I say this not to advise you to give up, but to tell you that if you want to realize your ideals, even if you become a great master, you must be mentally prepared for your whole family to be broken in the middle."
Death, infamy, and nothing has changed. Of course, no matter what you choose, I will support you."
Zhang Yuelu snorted, "Stop coaxing me. You can only choose between going to war with the outside world or reforming the country at home. You want to go your own way, how can you support me?"
Qi Xuansu said, "Okay, let me put it another way, we can make a bet."
"What are you betting on?" Zhang Yuelu asked.
Qi Xuansu said, "It depends on who of us can be the great master. If I become the great master, you will listen to me. Whatever I say, you will do what you do. In the same way, if you become the great master, I will listen to you."
Yes, what do you say, what do I do, I will be the pioneer for you, the worst is that the two of us will be broken together, it is no big deal."
Zhang Yuelu clicked his tongue, "Master, please stay far away, right?"
Qi Xuansu said, "It's not that I'm arrogant, but that's the reality. It's natural for the thirty-year-old Shangsantang chief and the less than forty-year-old Shenzhi master to compete for the top master. Is there anyone who will jump out and look down on me now?"
Don’t there still be people who think that I am wasting my time? Even if I say that I am not qualified to compete for the Grand Master, others will not believe it. To put it bluntly, some people will think that I am the default Eighth Generation Grand Master.
"
Zhang Yuelu had to admit that aside from the fact that he had been appointed as the Eighth Master, what Qi Xuansu said made sense, and there was no point in deceiving himself and others now.
Zhang Yuelu asked, "What if Li Changge or Yao Pei wins?"
Qi Xuansu smiled and said, "There are only two ways to go. Accept your fate or flip the table, it depends on your choice. If you plan to accept your fate, then the two of us should not discuss the route. We should keep ourselves safe first before talking about anything else."
Zhang Yuelu pondered for a moment and said, "I will not give up my ideas, but if you become the Grand Master, I will abide by the rules of the Taoist sect and obey the Grand Master's orders."
Qi Xuansu nodded with satisfaction, "Then it's settled. Well, I'm almost done drinking. The future headmaster is going to sleep peacefully. I'll order you in advance..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Yuelu pointed to the door and interrupted, "Chief Qi's residence is in the wooden palace. Everything has been arranged in advance."
The Wooden Palace is where distinguished guests are accommodated, and Jiang Dazhen also lived here when he came to Borneo. The Fire Palace is where Qi Xuansu lived for two years, and of course, it now belongs to Zhang Yuelu.
In a sense, the two of them really slept in the same bed.
The only one who was not affected was Xiao Yin. When Qi Xuansu was the chief, she lived in the Fire Palace. When Zhang Yuelu was the chief, she still lived in the Fire Palace. This place felt like home.
Qi Xuansu looked around at the familiar furnishings and sighed, "A few months ago, the Fire Palace was still my residence. Unexpectedly, just a few months later, this place has changed and there is no room for me anymore."
Zhang Yuelu waved his sleeves and said decisively, "I won't send it away."
Qi Xuansu had no choice but to leave the Fire Palace.
This quasi-taoist is like a quasi-one-kalpa immortal, one step away is a world of difference.
When Qi Xuansu came to the wooden palace, he happened to meet Huangfu Ji who was walking in the wooden palace.
Qi Xuansu exchanged a few pleasantries as usual and asked how the visit was this afternoon.
Huangfu knew very well that Qi Xuansu was going to see Zhang Yuelu, so he couldn't help but be a little curious. "It's natural that everything is fine here. Palace Master Yao personally accompanied him and saw the port trade. He was very inspired. But Brother Qi, is there anything wrong with you coming here so late?"
"What's this?" Qi Xuansu and Huangfuji were already familiar with each other, so they spoke more casually, "Where else can I go if I don't come to Mugong?"
Huangfuji said matter-of-factly, "Brother Qi Dao has been away from his younger siblings for many days. They all say that a long separation is better than a new marriage. Why doesn't Brother Qi Dao go to his younger siblings?"
In Huangfuji's opinion, Qi Xuansu even had a child, so naturally he had become a Taoist couple with Zhang Yuelu.
Any other member of the mission would not have made such a joke. They had already done their homework, especially in terms of interpersonal relationships. Huangfuji was an exception. Not long ago, all he could think about was how the battle in Monclova was going.
, there is no time to do homework. And because Huangfuji is good friends with Qi Xuansu, he thinks he is very familiar with Qi Xuansu, so there is no need to do homework at all. No matter how well you know Qi Xuansu, how can Qi Xuansu understand himself?
Naturally, others didn't dare to say anything, so they just made a joke.
Qi Xuansu didn't know how to answer for a while.
Huangfu said clearly, "I understand, Brother Qi was kicked out by his younger siblings. It's a common thing. Women are used to doing this. If they don't get what they want, they won't let them in. So the study is used to deal with this situation."
.”
Qi Xuansu said, "It seems that Brother Huangfu is very experienced."
Huangfu Ji waved his hand and said, "It's not about experience. After all, in response to the call of the Taoist sect, everything is equal. We can no longer engage in the routine of husbands serving as wives."
