Some things, once they are put on the line, are matters of principle and cannot be tolerated at all.
At the very least, this incident is a lesson to a short-sighted man in black. At the most serious level, it is an abuse of power and damage to the reputation of the Taoist sect.
The punishment can naturally be light or severe, ranging from a few verbal lessons to serious punishment.
In other words, some things won’t weigh four ounces if they don’t go on the scale, and they won’t weigh a thousand kilograms if they go on the scale.
When Pei Xiaolou asked the question "Who gave the power?", he was on the scale.
In this case, the head of the Qinzhou Taoist Palace would not protect the person, but would only distance himself from the relationship.
Pei Xiaolou asked: "What's your name?"
The young man's lips moved slightly and he whispered: "Replying to the Master, I would like to express my gratitude."
"Cen Li? What a good name. It's a pity that your name has the word 'Li' in it, but you don't follow any etiquette at all." Pei Xiaolou wrote lightly, "Let's take off this filial piety first, and then go to Shenli."
Criminal Division.”
Cen Li didn't move.
The other members of "Little Tiangang" also remained motionless.
"Little Tiangang" has always been superior to others, and has a special status in Qinzhou Taoist Mansion. Even the deputy masters of Qinzhou Taoist Mansion have no right to interfere. Only the second deputy master in charge of "Little Tiangang" directly reports to the real person in charge.
Report relevant matters.
In other words, they are afraid of a real person, but in their opinion, Pei Xiaolou has no power to do anything to them. At most, he can just reprimand a few words verbally, and then inform the magistrate, who will then step in. Any more is just overstepping their bounds.
, it’s a violation of the rules.
Pei Xiaolou looked at the old man who recognized his identity with burning eyes.
The old man gritted his teeth and said: "Zhenren Pei, if you want to punish the members of 'Little Tiangang', you must report it to the second deputy palace master. Without the palace master's permission, even the chief deputy palace master is not allowed to interfere."
Pei Xiaolou suddenly laughed: "Are you... using the master of the palace to oppress me?"
This time it was the old man's turn to lower his head: "I don't dare."
Qi Xuansu only felt that these words were familiar. It seemed that they were all said by Cen Li just now, and now they were returned.
Pei Xiaolou said: "It doesn't matter whether you dare or not."
The old man thought that Pei Xiaolou would be furious, but he did not expect that Pei Xiaolou would be so calm and calm. He became increasingly unsure and could only continue to bite the bullet and said: "The rules are here, I hope Master Pei can understand."
Pei Xiaolou glanced at the group of people with piercing eyes, and finally focused on Cen Li: "Rules, you know how to follow the rules now, why didn't you follow the rules just now? On the contrary, you are the ones who follow the rules and no one can do it.
Acting in violation of the rules. By the way, you are just following the rules and are not polite to common people. Is this the way to say it?"
Cen Li had just been promoted to the fourth rank of Taoist priest, and now he was very proud of himself in "Little Tiangang". He was considered a prominent figure. Everyone he met called him "Master". As a result, Qi Xuansu violated his taboo, and he was planning to take care of it.
Qi Xuansu, who was showing his authority in disguise, was caught by Pei Xiaolou who suddenly appeared. He was frightened. At this time, he calmed down and said, "What you said is inappropriate."
Pei Xiaolou looked him up and down: "What's wrong?"
Cen Li plucked up the courage and said, "The real person wants to punish me because I don't follow the rules. But the real person went beyond the second deputy palace master and punished me, which is also a violation of the rules."
Pei Xiaolou said calmly: "I can't go beyond the second deputy palace master to punish you. Which house's rules have you broken? The Taoist sect's rules? The Quanzhen Taoist rules? Or the Qinzhou Taoist house's rules?"
If it was just a reprimand, Cen Li could still hold back and say nothing. It was about his own future, and Cen Li couldn't care less: "Of course it is the rule of Qinzhou Taoist Government."
Pei Xiaolou smiled again: "Not to mention that I am not a member of the Qinzhou Taoist Office, but I belong directly to the Wanshou Chongyang Palace, and I have the right to govern you. Even if I am a person of the Qinzhou Taoist Office, can you put this
Do you want to take out the rules? Make them public in black and white, and you don’t even need to have the seal of the Golden Tower or the Longevity Chongyang Palace, just the seal of the Qinzhou Taoist Office. I can wait for you here for an hour, do you have it?"
Cen Li was speechless.
Pei Xiaolou sarcastically said: "I'm afraid not? I'm afraid it's the so-called unwritten rules again? Do you know why these unwritten rules are unwritten? Because they are inherently unreasonable and no one dares to put them into writing."
Cen Li didn't expect this slightly wretched-looking real person to be so powerful, but he still refused to accept his fate and forced himself to say: "This is... this is what the real person in charge said in public!"
"Then what's the matter?" Pei Xiaolou asked in amusement, "Is he the Grand Master? Is there still an oral instruction? What kind of rules are they if they are not written down?"
Cen Li was about to speak, but at this time the old man finally couldn't help but said: "Junior Brother Cen! Please stop talking."
These young people have only been successful for a short period of time. They don't know the depth of the water. They are used to the glory of "Little Tiangang". It is inevitable that they don't know the heights of the sky. But this old man knows how powerful they are.
Of course, this real person Pei is not as good as the master of his own house, he is just an ordinary real person. But then again, Li Tianzhen, the young master of the Li family, is not even a real person. Why are so many people afraid of him? Isn’t it because his surname is Li? Why is it that Zhang Yuelu is the only one who dares to provoke Li Tianzhen?
Is it not because her surname is Zhang that she escaped unscathed? The Zhang and Li families have been old rivals and friends for many years. This kind of thing is just normal. But if it were someone else, it would not be so simple.
In the same way, Pei Xiaolou's surname is Pei. To this day, although the Pei family cannot compare with the Li family, which has seven real people, or the Zhang family, which is known as the only three families in the world, it should not be underestimated. The number two figure in Quanzhen Taoism
Master Donghua was born in the Pei family. By coincidence, Master Donghua was Pei Xiaolou's brother.
I am unreasonable, and my background and power are not as good as others. Even if this lawsuit goes to Jinque, there is no chance of winning.
Pei Xiaolou glanced at the old man: "Come here, strip him of his filial piety clothes, and send him to the Shenxing Department of Qinzhou Taoist Prefecture to ask the master to punish him."
Although "Xiao Tiangang" formed cliques internally, externally, they were monolithic and extremely united. Therefore, several people were afraid of Pei Xiaolou, but no one responded and just lowered their heads.
Pei Xiaolou saw this and couldn't help but said: "I have seen what it means to be 'can't be penetrated by needles, and can't be penetrated by water'. It seems that I have no choice but to ask the people from Wuxu Palace to come forward."
In Quanzhen Taoism, the status of the Wanshou Chongyang Palace is higher than that of other Taoist palaces. As an auxiliary institution of the Wanshou Chongyang Palace, the Wuxu Palace naturally falls under the direct control of the Wanshou Chongyang Palace, just like the Shangqing Palace takes orders from the Dazhen Palace. Change
In short, Pei Xiaolou can command the people of Wuxu Palace.
After saying that, Pei Xiaolou took out a Zimu Talisman and ignited it directly.
This place was not far from Wuxu Palace. After a while, a group of spiritual officers wearing pitch-black armor arrived. The leader turned out to be a second-grade spiritual officer.
Pei Xiaolou pointed at Cen Li and said, "This person has abused his power and ruined the reputation of the Taoist sect. Please take this person to the Criminal Punishment Department and ask the real person in charge of the palace to personally judge him."
"Yes!" Of course Lingguan obeyed the order and agreed, striding towards Cen Li.
The rest of the "Little Tiangang" people suddenly became commotion, but after Pei Xiaolou glanced over, everyone immediately became quiet and did not dare to make any move.
Only then did Cen Li become really scared. He took off his white clothes and dared not say anything again.
Pei Xiaolou lowered his tone: "Don't worry, go to the Shenxing Department. If any real person comes out to speak for you, I will go to the Earth Master with him to argue."
Only then did Cen Li become truly confused, and left the place with Ling Guan in despair.
Some of the other "Little Tiangang" people were secretly happy, some were worried, and some were saddened to death, and they all stood there with their heads down.
Pei Xiaolou's eyes slowly glanced at them: "I caught you today, and you still dare to resist like this. It shows how arrogant and unscrupulous you are usually. It's really good. Don't worry, I will do this.
Report what you have seen and heard to the Earth Master verbatim. As for you, feel free to do whatever you want. If you have a backer, you can move back and forth, and if you have connections, it’s best if I can’t even keep my name as a real person. How about that?”
"Don't dare." All the people in "Little Tiangang" replied in unison, some in loud voices and some in low voices.
Overthrowing Pei Xiaolou means overthrowing the master Donghua who is behind him. Master Donghua can be brought down. Master Cihang and Master Qingwei are not necessarily rivals, and they can become great masters.
Pei Xiaolou waved his hand, indicating that the people from "Little Tiangang" could leave.
These "little Tiangang" people are like birds and beasts scattered as if they were granted amnesty.
Only then did Pei Xiaolou look at Qi Xuansu carefully. Seeing that he had broken an arm, he didn't say a word. He couldn't help but sigh: "Follow me."
