Jingcheng·Daolu Division
In August, there were several consecutive rain showers. During the day, the ground was sandy and white smoke was rising from the official roads. Although the watermelon, muskmelon, peach and pear fruits, as well as fans, cattail mats, and pillows were transported by boat by boat and sea, Came over, but it was sold out as soon as it came on the market.
Even honeysuckle, chrysanthemum and other summer-relieving medicines are busy in business.
And because the streets and alleys are lined with rows of people and densely populated, it makes people feel hot even more. Fortunately, there is a big locust tree not far from the door of Daolu Si, which sprinkles a piece of coolness. That's it. There are even bigger trees inside. , there are exotic flowers and plants everywhere, and you feel faintly cool just looking at them.
Some trails are in front of a pool. There is a stone turtle statue standing in the pool, looking up at the sky. As the sun shines, some dense water vapor is evaporating.
Not far away, I saw a person giving instructions: "Bake a few pots of mung bean soup to relieve the heat of the people on duty..."
A middle-aged Taoist official glanced at it, then hurried towards the Tidian Hall. When he reached the door, he stretched out his hand and knocked on the door: "Master Tidian, I have something important to report to you."
In the hall, Feng Min was reviewing case files, classifying, or making decisions. Listening to the Taoist official's voice, he put down the brush in his hand and shouted: "Come in."
As soon as the middle-aged Taoist entered the room, he felt a chill all over his body. The room was stacked with ice cubes on large plates, and there was a trace of white air. At this time, he took a breath and reported to Feng Min: "Sir, today we are sending The Taoist officials who fought against Qi Xuanmen with Imperial Envoy Pei Zhenjun sent back the latest information and battle situation, as well as Pei Zhenjun’s request. I don’t know why Pei Zhenjun was so crazy that he issued a transfer order, wanting to transfer the classics that our Daolu Division had obtained before, as well as our previous Seized items that are unworthy of the Taoist people.”
"The details are here, you see."
Feng Min read it once, then walked a few steps with a sullen face. After a long time, he sighed: "Let's talk in the main hall."
"Yes, Ti Dian." The Taoist responded, and pushed the back door of the room with Ti Dian, followed the corridor through a courtyard, arrived at a main hall, and pushed the door open.
There are dozens of Taoists busy in the main hall, surrounded by large copper-inlaid cabinets and rows of bookshelves. The bookshelves are not books, but are all documents, each one labeled.
From time to time, someone would send documents for inspection, classification, and labeling. After Feng Min entered, he sat down in the main seat and ordered: "People from the Sixth Division will come up and look at it, and then file it."
Following Feng Min's words, the Sixth Division, with seven or eight people who were busy in one place, stepped forward to salute. The leading Taoist official, wearing an eighth-grade official uniform with a thin face expressionless, took the information and read it. After finishing, he kept silent and passed the information to the next person. Several officials read it and put the case file aside.
"Everyone in the Six Divisions, whatever your opinions are, please speak your mind."
Feng Min looked at and asked. After listening to these words, the eighth-grade Taoist priest was silent for a moment and said: "To remind you, it is normal to ask for classics, and we can all understand it - these classics are useless to us, but they are useless to Songyunmen. For Taoist sects with insufficient foundation, this is the qualification."
"However, Songyun Sect can be considered a middle-level sect, and the savings are not too far away. Although these classics have some inferences, it is not too important. Ordinary people may think that Taoism and Dharma have their own wonders, but we all know that in fact they are all Much the same, with some minor differences, one Dao Dao Meridian is even more complete."
"The official thinks it can be given."
Feng Min nodded, what he said was very pertinent, and pondered for a moment: "What I'm saying is that this is the classic book. It's normal to use it and observe it. I just ask for these old things - what's the point of this?"
Feng Min was confused and asked: "Have you checked these old things? What's so special about them?"
Another middle-aged Taoist official stood up and reported: "Just a reminder, we naturally have old things in our Daolu Department and they are stored in the warehouse. Let alone this dynasty, we have studied them repeatedly in the previous dynasties. Most of them have no spiritual power, even if some do. , and it’s also very meager, so it won’t be of any use to Pei Zhenjun.”
Feng Min frowned as he listened. The middle-aged Taoist official said: "But when something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Pei Ziyun pointed out that there must be a problem, or there is something we haven't studied clearly."
"Hey" Feng Min heard this, walked a few steps with a sullen face, and let out a long sigh: "I have the same suspicion. You tell me, should we give it or not."
The Taoist officials of the Sixth Division in the field were discussing. The eighth-grade Taoist priest took a step forward and bowed: "I think you should give me some tips."
"Oh? Tell me the reason?"
The eighth-grade Taoist official said in a deep tone: "There is no reason in the world. Since Mr. Pei Zhen wants these old things, he may want to find some in them, or there may be some purpose that we don't know about."
"These things are of no use to us, but we can't give them in a vague way. If something happens, we won't be able to afford them, so we can give them, but they must be given in batches, and each batch must be recorded in a book, and the style, size, and characteristics must be recorded. Once you mark it, let the Taoist officials following you pay close attention."
"We will investigate those items that Pei Zhenjun pays special attention to."
"Maybe we can find the reason why Pei Zhenjun values him."
Feng Min listened to what the eighth-grade Taoist official said clearly, stood up and said: "Okay, let's do it like this, give it, but divide it into several batches, you all arrange to record it, and let the Taoist priests who follow you keep an eye on it to see what use it is."
"Yes!" Everyone present bowed in response.
Feng Min patted the document in his hand: "As for this, the Emperor has given instructions, so it is not within our scope to deal with it. It is just a record."
"Yes!" Everyone responded, carefully affixing small labels with paste, and recording the processing results in the file. One person took it and added it to a bookshelf. Looking closer, it can be seen that the bookshelf is filled with densely packed case files, with stickers on them. He writes grid labels such as Songyunmen, Liujindao, and Pei Ziyun.
"Zhang Ling, come with me." On the way out, Feng Min ordered the eighth-grade Taoist official.
Zhang Ling followed him without saying a word. Feng Min walked a few steps and stood in the corridor with a heavy tone: "Pei Ziyun is different from the previous Taoists."
"In the past, Taoists rarely understood politics, no matter how profound their Taoism was. However, this man is proficient in all things humanistic, Taoist, and martial arts. He is also proficient in Taoism and martial arts. Once he reaches the opposite side, he cannot kill with one blow, which will immediately lead to disaster."
"The Sixth Division is responsible for capturing Taoist thieves. You are responsible for Pei Ziyun. You must do your job well. I know there are many difficulties in this. This is the emperor's secret order."
"Your Majesty, I understand." Zhang Ling leaned forward, his thin face expressionless: "I have deployed people in Jiangping County, Songyunmen, and Liujin Island, and I am now investigating to find out Pei Ziyun's people. Clearly, this is my first step.”
"Secondly, each of the relatives will arrange deployment. Once there is an order, they will take it immediately."
"As for Pei Ziyun himself, it cannot be completed by our Sixth Division. It depends on the imperial court."
The rule of the imperial court is to control the family. This was a normal thing to say, but as soon as he said it, a gust of wind rushed in, and the window paper rustled uneasily. Feng Min shivered inexplicably, and after a long time he said: "I understand what you mean. , just follow your rules, and report to me immediately if there is any progress."
"yes!"
Station
The inn was in good repair and was only a few hundred meters away from the street. Since there was no market day and it was hot summer, there were few people on the street. However, there were medicine shops, tea, porcelain, and hotels. If you needed anything, you could buy it directly.
The sun shines through the window into the room, and Pei Ziyun wakes up.
An indescribable feeling came to him immediately. He was silent for a while and let out a heavy breath. Although it was not the first time, every time he experienced life, it made him feel like he didn't know where he was.
"In the future, you should avoid using dreams like this to affect yourself."
"The side effects will be much less with experience."
"But this is the sustenance of the Taoist priests of Qi Xuan Sect. Only by experiencing it personally can we learn the most experience and Taoism. This time it is a last resort."
Pei Ziyun closed his eyes. There was no need to meditate or recall. Yesterday's "dream" appeared vividly in Pei Ziyun's mind.
The child's parents stroked their heads: "Li Changsheng, I heard that there are immortals on Qixuanmen Mountain. You should practice well after you go up there. Maybe you can become an immortal in the future."
"Well, okay." The boy responded with a sweet voice. He saw his parents in ragged clothes and with yellow faces and thin skin. Time passed day by day and he was practicing Taoism and swordsmanship on Qixuan Mountain. He was neither high nor low, only middling.
Suddenly one day a man came down from the mountain and said: "Chang Sheng, your parents were seriously injured by bandits and are about to die. Go and have a look."
"Changsheng, Changsheng, you have to take good care of yourself..." After rushing off, the parents died before they could say anything more. They held Li Changsheng's hand tightly before they died.
"Ah" Li Changsheng wailed, heartbreaking, and it took him a long time to calm down. He wiped away his tears and buried his parents without saying a word.
Li Changsheng became silent. He worked hard every day and practiced hard. He finally opened the Heaven's Gate, perfected his sword skills, was promoted to the Inner Gate, and went down the mountain to raze the bandits' stronghold to the ground.
After decades of silent practice and enlightenment, he practiced year after year and gradually became an old Taoist.
"Immortality, practice, and Taoism" continued like this, gradually getting older, and finally assigned a place to host a Taoist temple. He could not become an earthly immortal, and only lived a hundred years old.
Pei Ziyun opened his eyes and sighed: "The Taoism of Qi Xuanmen does have subtleties, and is much better than Songyun Sect. However, many principles are still the same, but Qi Xuanmen is deeper."
"These are all qualifications." Pei Ziyun exhaled and shouted: "System!"
A plum appeared in front of me, and it quickly enlarged into a translucent data frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and the data appeared in front of my eyes.
"Yin Shen: Ninth Level (11.2%)"
"Swordsmanship: Grandmaster (66.1%)"
"Principles of Taoism: Mastery (87.3%)"
"Taoist skills: eighty-five types, proficient (53.1%)"
“The Stars Are Moving: The Third Level (76.7%)”
"Cloud body wind body: third level (33.9%)"
The data increased, and I thought: "I have obtained the Taoism of Qi Xuanmen, and the principles of Taoism have finally reached 87.3%. If I can reach 100, I will be promoted to Grandmaster immediately. There is no mystery to me in the Taoism of this world, and it may even be possible." Transform it into your own unique magical power.”
"Dao Lusi inherited the previous dynasty, and I don't know how many items of this kind he accumulated. Even if one out of ten is a gift, I will be able to achieve great success if I get it."
As he was about to get up, a Taoist official came up carefully and asked: "Wenyang County has arrived, Fang Liuguan, do you want to fight?"
"Fight, why not fight?" Pei Ziyun replied casually. Before leaving, he forged the information and conjectures he obtained in the monster space last time into intelligence. I'm sure the Earth Immortal will be scared to death. This may be The basis for cooperation.
But before the Earth Immortal officially responds, he is still an enemy, so why not fight
Weakening the Qi Xuan Sect is justified and justified!
