I am Zhao Zhijing, a poor Taoist priest, and I have disciples all over the world.

Chapter 84 Going Down the Mountain
Guan Changhong was very enthusiastic and took Zhao Zhijing's hand and walked into the main hall.

Guan Shengnan also received the news and rushed out. She first greeted Zhao Zhijing, then took her brother Guan Maner aside and looked him up and down carefully.

After the host and the guests were seated, someone soon served them tea and snacks with great courtesy.

Ever since Guan Man'er joined the Quanzhen Sect, her sister Guan Shengnan has visited her every month, but her father Guan Changhong has never been there.

At this time, seeing Zhao Zhijing suddenly coming with Guan Man'er, he couldn't help but feel suspicious. Could it be that his son was really stupid, and Zhao Zhijing was fed up with him and wanted to send him back?

Guan Changhong offered him a cup of tea first, then asked, "Master Zhao, why did you come here in person this time?"

Zhao Zhijing smiled and said, "I dare not. I came here to visit you because I want to see what the chief escort and Miss Guan think."

"Now my Quanzhen Sect has already appointed Uncle Qiu as his disciple, and Junior Brother Li Zhichang as the third-generation chief disciple. Junior Brother Li is kind and steady, and will surely inherit my sect's tradition in the future."

"I am following my master's orders and will soon go down the mountain to preach and strive to carry forward the Quanzhen Sect."

"I don't know when I will be back after leaving Chongyang Palace this time, so I came to inform Chief Escort Guan and see how he plans to arrange for Man'er."

Guan Changhong breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, so that's how it is.

It seems that Taoist Priest Zhao also values Man'er very much, otherwise why would he make such a special trip and just write a letter and have someone deliver it.

Furthermore, there has been no news in the martial arts world about Li Zhichang becoming the successor to the head of Quanzhen Sect. The fact that Taoist Zhao is speaking out about it now shows his sincerity.

just
It has been heard that among the three generations of disciples of Quanzhen Sect, Zhen Zhibing, a disciple of Changchun Zhenren Qiu Chuji, is the most powerful. After meeting Taoist Zhao last time, he felt that he was also a talented person with both literary and martial arts skills.

Could it be possible that this Taoist priest Li could defeat these two people?
Guan Changhong was puzzled, but he could not ask, so he just said, "Thank you for asking me, Taoist Zhao. Since I am Taoist Zhao's disciple, I must follow you and listen to your teachings."

"Master Zhao, don't worry too much. No matter where you go, I will always be there for you."

Guan Changhong had just seen Guan Man'er's breathing and walking posture, and it was obvious that, as his daughter Guan Shengnan had said, she had already mastered the basics of internal energy, and it was said that she could even write a few simple words.

This is a level that I haven't been able to reach at home for several years. After becoming his disciple, I have made such progress in just a few months. This must be the credit of Master Zhao Zhijing.

Guan Changhong nodded without hesitation, but his daughter Guan Shengnan was still a little hesitant. The world is so big, and if he really went to a very far place, she didn't know when she would be able to see her brother again.

"Master Zhao, please forgive me. Shengnan asked a question. Where is the Taoist going to preach?"

Zhao Zhijing knew that she had a deep relationship with him, so he did not hide it and said, "I plan to go to Huashan and Taiheshan first. If that doesn't work out, I will go to Emei, Qingcheng and other places to look for opportunities."

When Guan Shengnan heard this, she felt relieved. Mount Hua, Mount Taihe and Mount Zhongnan are not far from each other. If she can stay in these two places, there will be no problem.

Thinking of this, he immediately said, "It would be best if the Taoist priest could preach in the Huashan and Taiheshan areas."

Guan Changhong knew what his daughter was thinking, and fearing that she would be disrespectful if she continued, he reprimanded her, "Do you have the right to comment on how Taoist Zhao behaves?"

Zhao Zhijing mediated and said, "Captain, calm down. I put Huashan and Taiheshan first, so I naturally want to settle in these two places."

Guan Changhong was just worrying about not being able to repay the favor, so he immediately said, "It just so happens that I have a convoy to go to Huashan. If it is convenient for Taoist Zhao, you can go with me and introduce me to other people in the martial arts world!"

"Thank you, thank you. However, I have to go back to Chongyang Palace to report and take care of some trivial matters before I can officially leave the mountain."

Guan Changhong nodded and said, "In that case, please wait for a moment, Taoist Zhao. I will write two letters right away. If you need anything in the future, please go to Tongguan to find my friends."

These two letters were actually visiting cards, which helped Zhao Zhijing to expand his network in the underworld.

Zhao Zhijing thanked him and said, "Thank you. I would like to thank the chief escort for his kindness in advance." Guan Changhong apologized and turned to go to the study to prepare the letter. Guan Shengnan then accompanied Zhao Zhijing and talked about his younger brother Guan Maner.

"Master Zhao, please don't blame me. Once you have decided on a destination, if it is convenient, please write a letter to let my father and I know so that we can visit in the future."

"Of course, Miss Guan, rest assured, as soon as I find a place to stay, I will ask someone to send the letter to you."

Not long after, Guan Changhong handed the letter to Zhao Zhijing, and then said some polite words.

After all the goods to be escorted were loaded onto the truck, Zhao Zhijing set out from the escort agency with Guan Changhong, and they traveled together for a while before parting ways at a fork in the road.

"Brother, remember to listen to Master."

Before parting, Guan Shengnan gave Zhao Zhijing some detailed instructions, and only said goodbye to him when Guan Changhong urged her to do so.

The trip to Xianyang took nearly three days and was very rushed, but fortunately Guan Man'er still stayed.

When they returned to Chongyang Palace, the Five Quanzhen Masters made a decision and agreed to let Zhao Zhijing take the disciples who were willing to follow him and go down the mountain to preach together.

As for Zhen Zhibing, he finally chose to leave. On the one hand, if Xiaolongnu's affair was exposed, he would no longer have the face to stay in Chongyang Palace, and would even bring shame to his master Qiu Chuji.

On the one hand, I also thought that after leaving Mount Zhongnan, I would travel around the world, perhaps this would help me calm down and start over.

Seeing that his disciple was frowning and that there were not many people who could take on the responsibility of promoting the Quanzhen Sect at that time, Qiu Chuji nodded in agreement and ordered him to take two reliable disciples with him, make amends for his crimes, and go down the mountain to preach.

On this day, Zhao Zhijing prepared everything and came to Sanqing Temple to bid farewell to his teachers. The Five Quanzhen Masters gave him some instructions, asking him to be careful and always remember his important mission of preaching for the Quanzhen Sect.

Zhao Zhijing listened carefully, and finally bowed respectfully, worshipped the statues of the Three Pure Ones, and then turned and left.

When they arrived at the mountain gate, Yang Guo, Guan Man'er, Liu Qingxing and other disciples were all there, carrying their luggage, standing quietly and obediently waiting for their master.

It turned out that after Zhao Zhijing's speech that day, these disciples went back and made their own plans. Before they joined the Quanzhen Sect, they all knew how difficult the conditions were at the foot of the mountain.

During these years in Chongyang Palace, I heard the stories told by the disciples who went down the mountain to do business. I know that the situation down the mountain is not peaceful at all and is definitely not as stable as Chongyang Palace.

So there was no communication between them. If someone wanted to stay, the seniors would understand.

Now the master was finally going down the mountain, and all the disciples packed their luggage and gathered at the mountain gate. Seeing that no one was missing, they looked at each other and couldn't help grinning.

Zhao Zhijing looked at his apprentice, then looked at Chongyang Palace where he had stayed for more than half a year, and he let out a long breath, feeling deeply moved.

"There is no turning back when the bow is drawn."

"Now that you have made your decision, I will take you on a journey of thousands of miles."

“Get down the mountain!”

“Get down the mountain!”

The disciples followed their master's gentle call, and their figures intertwined in the sunlight, following Zhao Zhijing's steps and stepping out of the mountain gate.
