longevity road trip

"It's not too late, please take your seats, I have something to explain." Zhang Shiping raised his hand for a little support, and said slowly.

Hearing this, the two walked towards the futon on the right, sat down cross-legged one by one, and made a gesture of respectful listening.

"I don't know why the ancestor called me here?" The old man who had already been in the shop asked softly.

This person is Pei Wenbing, the master of the Sicha Hall, and Tong Zhankun and Yun Xinhua are the deputy masters.

"Recently, you should pay more attention to those talented juniors of Zhu Jindan in Shuiyueyuan. If they go out for a trip, they will send a message to me as soon as possible." Zhang Shiping ordered.

"Yes." The three responded.

The Sichadian is in charge of the sect's external investigations, collecting news from the three realms and even overseas, and also has some power to enforce the law.

The power of law enforcement in Xuanyuanzong is divided into the Hall of Punishment and the Hall of Sicha.

In the previous generation, the vice-head Ji Feng was in charge of the Hall of Punishment and Prison, while the Hall of Sicha was controlled by Yan Yulou.

In addition, there are four halls of equipment, elixir, array, and medicine, and the secret realm of Tongxuan dedicated to cultivating elixir, all in Qiu Cong's hands.

The External Affairs Hall, which manages all miscellaneous affairs such as the secular dynasty and the disciples of the inner and outer sects, is managed by Qingyu.

The rest, such as Qinghe, Gongyangqian, Zhongli, and Taishuguang, have no practical experience.

As for Du Yu, who had just broken through the Nascent Soul at that time, let alone Du Yu, who only knew how to be happy and happy, and was in charge of the sect's collection of scriptures and transmission of merit.

Of course, these classics that are handed down are not secret books, at most they are the exercises of the golden elixir period, and there are some ordinary books such as utensils, pills, arrays, medicine, medicine, divination and travel notes.For those more advanced ones, inner sect golden core monks can observe and study them only after heavy checks.

Later, after Qing He and Ji Feng were promoted, Du Yu took over the sect. In fact, he didn't bother to manage anything, but devoted himself to cultivation.

On the other hand, Tianfeng, as the deputy head, took over the Hall of Punishment and Prison, and with the assistance of Qingyu, he managed the affairs of the sect, big and small, and this situation lasted for more than three hundred years.

At that time, the Yanyu Tower was still there. Originally, Xuanyuanzong wanted to let Yanli take charge of the Sicha Hall after his cultivation base was stabilized, but he encountered an accident during the battle in Yuanxiao City.

Later, when Tianfeng retreated and broke through the middle stage of Nascent Soul, Du Yu originally wanted to hand over the Punishment Palace to Zhang Shiping, but he didn't want to take over.

Now, with Qiu Cong, Qingyu, and Zhongli, the three veterans of the Zongmen, the Nascent Souls have been seated one after another, many administrative positions have been vacant, which can be regarded as Tianfeng who is too busy to leave the customs.

Although the specific affairs are all handled by the Jindan and Foundation Establishment monks under the sect, there are always some things that require him to make decisions, which is also annoying!

In the past five or six years, Tianfeng has come to Luanfeng Secret Realm to complain more than once, wanting to get rid of some of these chores.

However, Zhang Shiping, who was practicing at the bottom of the Rifting Wind Valley, just listened and refused with a smile.

He used to have some thoughts about this, but with the completion of the method of changing the soul and changing the soul, the door of the late stage of the Nascent Soul has been opened for the most part, but he has no time to pay attention to these troublesome matters.

However, Zhang Shiping also made a suggestion on this, that is, to ask Tianfeng to divide some of the matters in his hands between Gongyangqian and Tai Shuguang.

However, when Gongyangqian heard this, within a few days, she went to travel again and didn't know where to go, and she didn't come back no matter how she called.

In addition, after Zhongli's death, Tai Shuguang had long since lost his mind about the affairs of the sect.But because of Zhongli, his relationship with Zhang Shiping is pretty good.

Chapter 1019 The Lobbyist

Xuanyuan Palace.

Zhang Shiping gave Pei Wenbing and other three chief and deputy masters of the Sicha Palace a few words, and told Xu Su that if he cannot be found in Yuanxiao City or Bihu Island, he can be directly informed.

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head and took a look outside the hall, then waved his hand to let the three of them go on first, while he still sat quietly on the futon in the hall, closed his eyes and meditated.

With the completion of the third layer of the method of changing the soul and changing the soul, he can now transfer most of his soul power in the dark with the help of the ray of soul left on Xu Su and others past.

In a short period of time, such a soul clone is enough to display the strength of the Nascent Soul's initial stage.

Of course, with this wonderful method, even if the real body is hundreds of thousands of miles away, you can instantly know the news reported by several people.

But after all, this is just the soul. Although it is solid, it is still just a ethereal thing, not the real physical body.

This method originated from the first half of "Blood Nerves" obtained from the blood god realm by the nine ancestors of the clan and the founder of Mingxinzong.

When Zhang Shiping was still a golden elixir, when he heard about this for the first time, he was still in admiration that these ten seniors had such talents and were able to create such a method.

But now, with the passage of time and the growth of knowledge, he understands even more that "Blood Nerve" was created by Mahayana monks, and the content in it must be profound and profound, far from the ten who were only Nascent Soul or Transformation God at that time. A monk can fully comprehend and penetrate.

In all likelihood, each of them can only comprehend a few words, and after communicating with each other, they can barely summarize it.

In "Blood Nerves", there must be a more mysterious method of spiritual cultivation.

There are not many records about this Venerable Mingxin in Xuanyuanzong.I only know that this person was born in the late antiquity and was born as a casual cultivator. He is the last Mahayana monk in the Xiaohuan world, and his Taoist partner is the elder Shuiyueyuan.

Of course, it is also recorded that this person behaved pervertedly. He practiced all the way, and he usually disdained to attack those who were not cultivated or low-level monks. He only found trouble for monks of the same level. It is even more unscrupulous to plan for a monk in the transitional robbery period, trying to plunder the Tao fruit for his own use, not to mention that when this person arrives in the Mahayana.

It's just that among the great powers in all realms who can practice to the stage of crossing the catastrophe, which one is simple, how can he succeed?

As soon as he realizes his plot, he will naturally get rid of the future troubles with the force of thunder.

However, thanks to the creation of "Blood Nerves" by this person at that time, he had already incarnated the blood demon and hid it in all realms.It is rumored that after this person became a Mahayana, there are more than three thousand incarnations of this blood demon.

Based on this, Zhang Shiping speculates that maybe in the second half of "Blood Nerves", there is the method of physical body cultivation. The two are combined into one, and after the fellow practitioners, there is the incarnation of the blood demon. The top life-saving method.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be moved by the Blood God Realm, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up such a rash move.

After all, it is very possible that he will be killed as soon as he steps into the secret realm.

Although this person disdains to do anything to low-level monks, Zhang Shiping is not sure that he can win this kind of thing that entrusts his wealth and life to the whim of others.

While thinking like this, a ray of light fell from the sky and entered the hall.

When the brilliance faded away, a big man with purple beard appeared.

"Why are you so free today, instead of enjoying yourself on Qingji Island, come to my side?" Zhang Shiping opened his eyes and asked with a smile.

Tai Shuguang found a futon nearby in the store, sat down on it, and said casually:

"It's not your stupid idea. Over the years, Tianfeng has come to look for me again and again, why don't you help him share more?"

There seemed to be resentment in the words, I don't know if it was towards Zhang Shiping, or towards Tianfeng, or towards the previous generation of monks in the sect who are no longer in this world?

"Isn't it considered that I have taken over the prison hall?" Zhang Shiping said, he took out a yellow wine gourd, threw it over, and then took out another one, uncorked the bottle, and took a sip .

"What is it that you take over, throwing it to your juniors, and handing over the rest to Wen Jiu? After all, what's the matter, you can't find half of you, why don't you ask Tianfeng to make a decision?" Tai Shuguang took it with one hand After that, he took a big sip and said with a glance.

"Then you can also cultivate a few disciples of the younger generation. Isn't it free? You are the only one in the huge Qingji Island, don't you feel bored?" Zhang Shiping said.

In the past, Zhengyangzong lived temporarily on this island, and the tomb of his uncle Xu Youdan is there.

However, after the Mozun's death, Zhang Shiping moved the tomb to the Zhang Family Cemetery in Chongling Mountain after the members of the Zhengyang Sect returned to the Zhengyang Peak of Baimang Mountain. There.

"The lonely star of destiny, looking only at the sky, wandering endlessly without waiting for anything, can be called a real fairy, how can you say that you are bored?" Tai Shuguang raised his head and opened his mouth. Drank the rest of the gourd.

"Thanks."

With that said, he put down the wine gourd, got up and walked out of the hall.

When he reached the threshold of the palace gate, he stopped for a while, turned his back to Zhang Shiping and said, "It's not easy for Tianfeng, so you should help me a little bit, otherwise my lobbyist will be in vain."

"Okay. I'll take over the matter of the prison."

Zhang Shiping also stood up slowly, responded, and then saw that he was about to turn into a light and leave, so he said:

"Let's put it down. After all, it's been so long, and it's time for people to leave." Zhang Shiping said.

Tai Shuguang and Zhongli are close friends.

However, because of the grievances and resentments between Zhongli and Yan Yulou, some unpleasant things happened, so that Uncle Guang felt lingering hatred and was puzzled.

But with Yan Yulou, Zhongli, Qiu Cong, and Qingyu leaving one after another, it should be time for this matter to come to an end.

Hearing this, Tai Shuguang paused, and after standing for ten breaths, he sighed and said:

"That's right. I am far inferior to Qiu Cong in terms of pills and formations, and my talismans are slightly inferior to sapphires. However, in the way of utensils, I still have some skills. I will first create the four palaces of utensils, pills, formations, and medicines." It makes sense, you look back and pick up one or two halls. As for the Mysterious Tong Xuan Realm, forget it, the affairs here are too complicated, and I don't have many people under my command now, so let Tianfeng take care of it."

Immediately, his figure flickered, and his figure suddenly appeared more than ten feet away, turned into a ray of light, and flew towards the direction of the South China Sea.

When Zhang Shiping heard this, he shook his head with a smile. Although he had learned talismans and alchemy, he hadn't put his mind on it since he was born.

After all, a person's energy and time are really limited, and everything should be done first, as for these skills, they are just side effects.

However, if one breaks through to the late stage of Nascent Soul in the future, then there will be enough time to indulge in it, and by analogy, there may be some other gains.

Chapter 1020

Of course, even if Zhang Shiping took over the duties of the Zongmen's Punishment Hall, and Tai Shuguang took over the internal affairs of the four halls of Qi, Pill, Formation, and Medicine, it didn't really take up too much time for the two of them.

Those small and miscellaneous matters on weekdays are all handled by the masters of the halls, with the assistance of two deputy masters. The Xuanyuan Sect has survived for so long, and the rules and regulations here already have their own system in operation.

Although sometimes it is unavoidable to be a little stiff, but everyone follows this and acts according to the law, and no other accidents will happen.

As for what kind of thing is it an accident?

Just like decades ago, what the three of Zhang Chengze did, harmed so many mortals, and hurt Yan Zixiu, the grandson of the vice-prison hall master, so the Zhang family was involved.

Although this person is the deputy hall master, in terms of the authority he holds, he is actually the main hall master.

It's just that Tianfeng didn't rectify his name out of some considerations.He may still be taking the school exams, and the considerations and balances involved are unknown to outsiders.

If he didn't hide it for the sake of his superiors and followed the rules of the sect, it would definitely make Zhang Shiping, the ancestor of Yuanying, lose face.

Of course, apart from wanting to help his grandson, Yan Zixiu was also worried about whether Zhang Chengze's actions had been approved by his ancestors to plunder his soul for other spiritual needs.

At that time, the other two Vice-Hall Masters of the Punishment Hall, Weng Weiguang and Si Konghua, had this in mind.

As soon as he heard the news, he acted extremely quickly to declare that he had enlightened his heart and practiced in seclusion. As for the length of time, it is temporarily uncertain!

And when he learned that the Shiheng Zhenjun of Zongmen really took over the punishment and prison hall, Yan Zixiu visited the door the next day and voluntarily resigned from the position of deputy hall master, but he did not get permission.

Zhang Shiping asked him to go back first, because he would think about it carefully, and the result would be decided in three days.

Then he went to Tianfeng Mountain, but there was no result for this person, and the boy in the cave didn't know where Tianfeng was.

He turned to Xuanyuan, Luanfeng, and Tongxuan three secret realms, and searched around, but still found nothing, not even a single person.

It wasn't until Wen Jiu, who was dealing with affairs in the Xuanyuan Hall, that he learned that Tianfeng flew towards the South China Sea yesterday, saying that he was going to Du Yu's side, and there seemed to be something wrong.

Hearing this, Zhang Shiping turned around and left, also going to the Water Mansion where Du Yu was.

After such a delay, when it was almost time to arrive, it was already dusk, and the smoke and smoke were all in harmony.

A round of red sun, only half of it is above the sea surface, sparkling.The seabirds are returning to their nests, flitting across the sky in pairs and groups, and occasionally flying fish jump out of the sea, their scales shining brightly.

Suddenly, he flew past a small island with beautiful scenery, then circled in the sky again, and then floated down on a hill in the island.

He walked slowly for a few steps, and in the distance, under an old tree with a trunk full of three people hugging each other, lying on a huge bluestone was a barefoot monk with his hair loose and his clothes open, sleeping soundly.

A white jade wine jug was dumped in this person's hand, the wine had already drained, and the traces of the wine were on the stone.

"How did you find it?" Tianfeng asked with eyes closed before Zhang Shiping approached.

"Wen Jiu said that you went to Du Yu's side. I thought it was something, but I didn't expect you to sneak in here?" Zhang Shiping approached, stepped on the bluestone lightly, and then sat down cross-legged.

"He's in seclusion, and he won't be able to finish it until tomorrow. I have to wait here. Did you come here and regret it?" Tianfeng turned over, resting his elbow on the stone, resting his cheek on his palm, asked.

"I will not go back on what I have promised. But you are in a hurry, so let me ask you a few words. Why didn't you set up a main hall master in the Punishment Hall earlier? What are your plans?" Zhang Shiping said.

"It turns out that it is such a trivial matter. I have already intended to ask you to help me share some of it. Therefore, the chief and deputy palace masters are naturally appointed by you. Yan Zixiu, Weng Weiguang and Sikong Hua, if you don't like them, you will resign from their positions. I want to find some suitable ones. I think Hengyun has been away for a long time. If it doesn’t work, let him come back. His cultivation level is enough to be the main hall master. As for Tian Wu and Xu Su, their cultivation bases If it’s a little worse, I’m afraid I won’t be able to convince the public!”

Tianfeng listened

He lay down again, and said without haste. At the same time, he reached out and groped a few times on the stone, and caught the jug, but seeing that the wine in it was gone, he threw the jug away.

He turned to Zhang Shiping again and said, "Do you have Poguang wine with you, give me a bottle, preferably 500 years old wine."

"I only brought a few bottles of 400-year-old ones, so you'll be fine with it." Zhang Shiping flipped his hands and took out two bottles.

Then he continued:

"Forget it, Hengyun is now in the northern border, with Yan Changqing, I will not call him back. As for Tian Wu and Xu Su, they can be the vice-masters of the punishment prison hall. As for the appointment of the main hall master Those three people under your hand are still useful. If there is nothing wrong, how about lending me?"

"If you don't mind, Yan Zixiu will be with you. He has also been in prison for many years. He is mature and prudent. With him handling the miscellaneous matters, you can be at ease." Tianfeng took the wine, raised his head and took a big gulp .

"Thanks, that's him."

Zhang Shiping also knew Tianfeng's good intentions. After all, this person had a relationship with Zhang Chengze before.

If he is not dismissed but promoted instead, it will also calm people's hearts.

"It's just a trivial matter. I would also like to thank you for motivating Tai Shuguang. Otherwise, how could I let go of the four halls of Qi, Dan, Formation, and Medicine? It's a pity that he doesn't want to take over the matter of Tongxuan Secret Realm, otherwise I would really I can be free now, and I can go out and travel like Gongyangqian." After Tianfeng said, he couldn't help laughing.

"If he was here, he might not pick up after hearing what you said." Zhang Shiping also shook his head with a smile.

"Things that have already been promised, how can he go back on his word? If so, I will live in Qingji Island and see what he will do."
