Qi Xuansu held "Qingyun" in his hands and was filled with emotion.
This is a semi-fairy creature.
The year before last, he embarked on a journey from Luzhou to Tiangang Hall. For him, whether he was the youngest deputy hall master or was given a semi-immortal, they were like stars in the sky, unattainable.
Now, the deputy hall master and the half-immortal creature are right in front of us and within reach.
The legendary Zhang Yuelu was willing to become a Taoist companion with him, holding a top-notch semi-immortal object in his hand. .??.
They are also semi-immortal objects, but there are differences between them. For example, the "Gong Candle Stick" in Yao Pei's hand and the "Human World" in Li Changsong's song are the top semi-immortal objects, while the "Qingyun" and "Qingyun" given by the Heavenly Master are the top semi-immortal objects.
"Zixia" is also in this category. After all, the combination of the two is a fairy, which is beyond the reach of other semi-fairy creatures.
There are also differences between "Qingyun" and "Zixia". Among them, the male sword "Qingyun" is mainly used for killing. It is made of gold and iron and is extremely sharp. The female sword "Zixia" is made of jade and is slightly less sharp, but it has the magical function of penetrating the vitality of heaven and earth.
, it can be regarded as a magical sword.
Although Qi Xuansu has various magical powers, he still likes to fight close to others and prefers martial arts, so the Heavenly Master gave him "Qingyun". After all, Zhang Yuelu was a banished immortal and his methods were more flexible, so he got "Zixia".
After the two of them obtained the semi-immortal objects, the Heavenly Master did not keep them anymore and signaled that they could leave.
The two left the bookstore and put "Qingyun" and "Zixia" into their Xumi items in a tacit understanding. As the saying goes, wealth should not be revealed, so if they were to show off in the market with the "Heavenly Master's Male and Female Sword", it would be too irritating to the Zhang family.
It’s better not to stir up trouble.
As for arriving at the Fenglinzhou battlefield, that is another matter.
The two of them found a secluded place to enjoy the lanterns and fireworks from a distance, and did not return to their homes until midnight.
The Lantern Festival is over, and the two of them will return to Yujing.
But before returning to Yujing, there is another routine bidding.
Since the rise of Western learning, Taoism has had the habit of holding auctions within the Taoist sect. Generally, Shibotang is responsible for various precious goods that are not in large quantities but are in high demand. Huashengtang and Tianjitang will also occasionally hold bidding, mainly for
To promote their own products, even Beichen Hall and Tiangang Hall have held it. Beichen Hall sells the property of various criminals, and Tiangang Hall sells confiscated trophies. However, Ziweitang and Ancestral Hall never participate. After all,
We cannot let Ziweitang sell Taoist crowns and ceremonial documents, nor can we let ancestral halls sell benevolence, righteousness and morality.
This kind of bidding is mostly participated by high-quality Taoist priests, and some people from the imperial court and Confucianism can also be invited to participate.
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month of the year before last, Zhengyiyi and the Quanzhen Dao Shangqing Palace jointly held a bidding. The finale was a red fruit, and the big axis was a high-grade Xumi object. All the proceeds were used to comfort the spiritual officials who died in the war in the Western Regions.
Moreover, it is an additional pension, that is, the pension stipulated by the Taoist sect is still paid as usual, and is allocated by the Du branch, but this pension is an additional increase.
It will be held again this year as usual
One bid, and all proceeds will be used for the upcoming Fenglinzhou war.
With the fame and status of Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, it is natural for them to receive the invitation.
The specifications this time are far better than last time, and Zhang Jucheng will attend in person.
The last time Qi Xuansu was invited to attend, the emphasis was just on participation, but this time it was different. He was attending as an important guest.
According to the rules, everyone invited to attend must prepare an item for bidding. Qi Xuansu was a little worried. With his status, he took Zhang Yuelu's face into consideration, and considering that the Heavenly Master had just given a semi-immortal item, he had to come up with it no matter what.
It is a treasure, otherwise it will be looked down upon by the Zhang family. But where did he come from so many treasures? There is a replica of the "Nine Yang Lihuo Shield" that is not used very much, but the genuine one is in the Da Zhenren's house. In front of the Zhang family,
It is not a good idea to come up with a fake product.
The "Dragon Painting Gun" was given by Yao Pei, the "Feiying Bai" was given by King Qin Quanyi of Jin Dynasty, and the collector's edition of the Xuansheng Tablet was given by Qiniang and Li Qingnu. They are all inappropriate. Especially the Xuansheng Tablet, if it is
It would be a shame to let Qiniang know that he donated it. A prodigal son cannot escape the crime of being a prodigal.
Qi Xuansu looked through his Xumi items and found a collector's edition of "The Female Sword Fairy" worth three hundred Taiping coins.
This is the product of Xuanxuan Jar.
It's not a treasure, but it's still an elegant thing.
Qi Xuansu thought about it and decided on this.
If the Zhang family wants to look down upon him, then so be it. Anyway, it's not the first day they look down on him. Don't worry if you have too many debts, and don't itchy if you have too many lice, just let him be.
Since you can't grow a long face by being rich and powerful, then develop in the direction of having cool sleeves.
Zhang Yuelu's situation was much better than Qi Xuansu's. Her share of the bidding items was settled by Tianshi. Probably Tianshi knew that she was living in embarrassment and did not have much money, so he directly asked Tang Jiaohua to pick it from Xuanwu Hall.
A nice treasure, donated in her name.
This made Qi Xuansu sigh, I also want such an Aweng.
Early the next morning, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu came to the auditorium of Shangqing Palace together. The two arrived relatively early, so many important people had not arrived yet. After a brief greeting with some familiar people, the two came to a corner.
Sit and talk.
Qi Xuansu was a little bored. He only had a total of 2,400 Taiping, so don't expect him to buy anything, just to satisfy his eye cravings.
Zhang Yuelu is in a similar situation. Regardless of her high status, because she is not greedy or possessive, she relies on the Taoist sect's regular bankers to survive and barely maintains her dignity. She has no spare money to participate in such things. But there should be good things in the future.
Turn, after all, the Zhang family’s background lies there.
Not long after, Zhang Kuqi, Tantai Qiong and his wife, Zhang Yuyue and Dong Baijing, also arrived.
Regardless of whether they wanted to or not, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu still had to stand up and say hello.
Qi Xuansu greeted Zhang Kuqi and Tantai Qiong as a junior, and was polite to Dong Baijing.
Tantai Qiong did not have an attack, after all, it was such an occasion, and Qi Xuansu's identity was also very different.
After sitting down again, Zhang Yuelu asked softly: "Last time you participated in the bidding, you met two enemies. Did you meet any enemies in this bidding?"
Qi Xuansu wondered whether he should laugh or cry: "Where do you get so many enemies?"
Zhang Yuelu changed the topic: "You have no enemies, are there any old acquaintances?"
Qi Xuansu said: "Among our classmates at that time, Yue Liuli and Wan Xiuwu were the best. You have seen the other old acquaintances. They didn't even have a fourth-grade wine-offering Taoist priest. They didn't even enter the gate of Shangqing Palace."
Not going."
Zhang Yuelu suddenly said: "Shi Yu came to see me."
Qi Xuansu was startled: "How did she find you?"
"Isn't it easy to find me? I stay in the Tiangang Hall in Yujing. It's not like you running around all day." Zhang Yuelu said, "I still have some impressions of her, so I met her."
"What's wrong with her?" Qi Xuansu asked.
Zhang Yuelu said: "It's about Mo Qingdi. He has had some troubles in recent years, and he wants to save face and refuses to ask you for help. Shi Yu asked me for help without telling him."
Qi Xuansu asked again: "What does she ask you for?"
Zhang Yuelu said: "It's nothing, just saying hello."
Qi Xuansu stopped talking and asked after a long time: "Will it violate the principles and embarrass you?"
"No." Zhang Yuelu shook his head and said, "It's not a promotion. I'm just asking to ask the people at Qingping Bookstore not to embarrass him anymore."
Qi Xuansu sighed and said: "This should be my business..."
Zhang Yuelu smiled and said, "Forget it. Not to mention that you were busy in a battle of wits with that gentleman in Imperial Capital. Even if you were in Yu Capital, do you know where the door of Qingping Bookstore opens?"
Qi Xuansu said: "The gate should open to the south. The buildings in Yujing are all carved from the same mold."
Zhang Yuelu couldn't help but patted him: "You are the only one who knows how to talk."
Qi Xuansu said: "That's what I said, but I really want to thank you."
"That's obvious. It's hard to get rich by having a wife, and it's hard being paid by friends. It's a good thing that you don't forget them. When you get rich in the future, you can't be a heartless person. If you become successful and become famous, you forget about Zhang, or you are half-hearted.
, I have fallen in love with a girl from another family and want to have sex
It’s a blessing for all of us, so I won’t be polite.” Zhang Yuelu joked for the first time.
Qi Xuansu asked deliberately: "I wonder why you are so rude?"
Zhang Yuelu glanced at him: "I will kill you with one sword."
Qi Xuansu pretended to be scared and whispered: "Speaking of half-heartedness, I do have a sweetheart."
Zhang Yuelu raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"
Qi Xuansu said: "That woman has beautiful face and unparalleled talent. Especially her pair of phoenix eyes, which are so radiant that people dare not look at her. She also made me fall in love at first sight."
Zhang Yuelu saw through his little trick at a glance: "Isn't that woman's last name Tantai with the word 'chu' in it? According to that, I also know a person named Wei Wugui."
Qi Xuansu was disappointed: "It's boring if you do this."
Zhang Yuelu smiled and said: "Okay, I'll play dumb next time and cooperate with you properly."
Qi Xuansu didn't want to talk to Zhang Yuelu. The bad thing about a woman is that she is too smart. It would be difficult to deceive her in anything, and the tricks would not be easy to use.
While the two were talking, Zhang Jucheng and others arrived.
Yan Mingchen also followed Zhang Jucheng. It was not that Zhang Jucheng valued his nephew, but that he valued the Yan family behind him.
Yan Mingchen glanced at Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu, said nothing, and found a seat to sit down.
Qi Xuansu didn't care.
If the person coming was Li Tianzhen, then he might still be concerned about it. Yan Mingchen, to put it harshly, was just a defeated general. From the beginning to the end, he did not regard Yan Mingchen as his opponent. It was true that Yan Mingchen had the Yan family behind him, but to do this
On the other hand, he also represents the Quanzhen Tao.
Zhang Yuelu didn't care even more. She didn't promise anything. From the beginning, her attitude was clear. She was firmly opposed to it without any room for comment. Of course, if Yan Mingchen insisted that Zhang Yuelu had insulted him, he would come to Yunjinshan for three years.
If the promise is made, then Zhang Yuelu will accept the challenge calmly.
But there are two special guests today.
Li Changsheng and Li Minghuang.
The two men participated in the bidding on behalf of Taipingdao.
After all, Taiping Dao wants to tie the other two groups to its own chariot, so easing the relationship is inevitable. Taiping Dao certainly knows that Li Minghuang is not suitable for this job. They have no intention of provoking Zhengyi Yi at this time, but Lu Yushu, who originally planned to attend, was temporarily dispatched by the Earth Master.
They went to investigate a corruption case, but everyone in the Li family from Beichen Hall had already gone to the Qizhou base camp with Zhenren Qingwei. Only Li Minghuang from Tiangang Hall was still in Yujing, so he stepped in.
But no matter how you look at it, it seems like the Earth Master did it intentionally.
Quanzhen Taoism does not want the relationship between Zhengyiyi and Taiping Tao to ease, but rather hopes that the relationship between the two parties will continue to deteriorate. Only in this way will Zhengyiyi stand firmly on the side of Quanzhen Taoism.
