Next!

The sky is slightly bright!

The bell rang from the entire Longhu Mountain.

One after another, the loud and melodious bells even reached the foot of the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain, the local mountain people who have lived here for generations are all kneeling on the ground reverently at this moment, facing the direction of the Heavenly Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain.

The Ancestor Festival of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is no stranger to the people near Longhu Mountain, because it is held once every ten years, and all the local people clearly know that on the day of the Patriarch's Day, the entire Longhu Mountain is not open to the public.

Of course, not all the local people can't go up, that is, the long-lived old people will be invited, but these old people don't say a word about the experience after going up the mountain, which makes the Patriarch's Day of the Heavenly Master's Mansion cast a veil of mystery in the hearts of the local people.

At the entrance of Longhu Mountain, two rows of Taoist priests from the Heavenly Master's Mansion are waiting here, and the duty of these Taoist priests is to prevent ordinary people from going up the mountain, and at the same time welcome people from the metaphysical world who come to watch the ceremony.

There are houses for visitors to live in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, but the number is limited after all, in addition to those who have received invitations, there are many who have not received invitations, and can only catch up with the mountain early in the morning of the same day.

In this decade-old prosperous era of the southern metaphysical circles, many people in the metaphysical circles are willing to come to join in the fun, bring the children of the family to come over to see the world, let the disciples know that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people, so as to stimulate their fighting spirit.

"Deacon Liu, Master Yuanguang, the two of you have come from afar, my Heavenly Master's Mansion is really not very honored. ”

In the crowd of people going up the mountain, when a group of people appeared, a middle-aged Taoist priest in his fifties who was standing at the gate of the mountain immediately got up to greet him.

This middle-aged Taoist priest's name is Zhang Jilin, and he is one of the thirty-six deacons of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and he didn't pay attention to so many people entering the mountain before, at most he nodded with a smile, because those who went up the mountain were not worthy of his initiative to say hello.

Those who are qualified are already on the mountain in advance, and those who are now on the mountain are not qualified, except for some sect forces in this province.

Like Liu Shen and Master Yuanguang, one is the person in charge of the Dao League in this province, and the other is the abbot of Youmin Temple, they naturally will not go up the mountain yesterday, and Zhang Jilin will guard the mountain gate, in fact, it is to greet the representatives of the first-class forces in the province, of course, there is also a reason to guard the mountain gate to prevent people from making trouble.

"The Patriarch's Day held every ten years in the Heavenly Master's Mansion can't be missed. ”

"Amitabha, the Patriarch's Day in the Heavenly Master's Mansion is a major event in Taoism, how can the old monk not dare to come to watch the ceremony?"

Liu Shen and Master Yuanguang returned the salute, and at this time, there was a commotion at the mountain gate.

A middle-aged Taoist and a young man were stopped by the Taoist priest of the Heavenly Master's Mansion at this moment.

"Forgive me, two fellow Daoists, I'll deal with it first. ”

Zhang Jilin said sorry to Liu Shen and Master Yuanguang, and then walked towards the mountain gate and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Uncle Shi, this person claims to be a disciple of my Heavenly Master's Mansion, but he can't take out the identity of our Heavenly Master's Mansion. ”

Hearing the young Taoist priest's words, Zhang Jilin looked at the middle-aged Taoist priest, but he was stunned for a moment, and only reacted after half a sound: "Senior Brother Zhang?"

"Senior Brother Keeling. ”

Zhang Yuanyan saw Zhang Jilin, with a wry smile on his face, but Wang Ziyang on the side was dumbfounded, it turned out that his master did not deceive people, he was really a disciple of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

"Senior Brother Zhang, you should know that this is not the place where you came. ”

After being stunned for a while, Zhang Jilin reacted, and his face suddenly became pale: "The master expelled you from the master's sect, and you are not allowed to set foot on Longhu Mountain again from then on, otherwise you will be taken away by the Punishment Hall and abolished for cultivation." ”

"Senior Brother Keelin, today is the Patriarch's Day, although I have been expelled from the sect, I can be regarded as a disciple of the patriarch, it should be no problem to worship the patriarch. ”

Zhang Yuanyan had a pleading look on his face, Zhang Jilin was also soft-hearted, in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, his master only accepted three apprentices, one was the senior brother, but unfortunately the senior brother died unexpectedly when he went down the mountain to practice, so he and Senior Brother Zhang were left under his master.

But Senior Brother Zhang was expelled from the division again, if it weren't for his own master's protection, Senior Brother Zhang would probably even be abandoned for cultivation, after Senior Brother Zhang was expelled from the division, the master was disheartened and closed the dead pass, and he had not stepped out of the courtyard for so many years.

"Well, pay attention to yourself, don't cause trouble. ”

Zhang Jilin finally chose to let go, because he knew that his master would be out of the customs today, and the master was the most distressed Senior Brother Zhang back then, and if he saw Senior Brother Zhang, he would definitely be relieved.

As for Senior Brother Zhang, who was expelled from the division and punished for the rest of his life, he was not allowed to set foot in Longhu Mountain, but today is the Patriarch's Day, I believe that those uncles and uncles will also open the net, as long as Senior Brother Zhang does not stay on the mountain, it should be nothing.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Kirin. ”

Zhang Yuanyan showed a look of gratitude on his face, and Wang Ziyang, who was following Zhang Yuanyan, looked at his master, and then at Zhang Jilin, at this moment he finally believed that some secret things had really happened to his master.

Zhang Jilin didn't pay any more attention to Zhang Yuanyan, and after signaling the young Taoist priests to let him go, he turned around and walked towards Liu Shen and Master Yuanguang.

"I've been waiting for two of you for a long time, so I'll send you two up. ”

Liu Shen and Master Yuanguang glanced at each other, in order to avoid suspicion that they hadn't eavesdropped on Zhang Jilin's conversation just now, so they didn't know that it was Zhang Yuanyan who walked over behind their backs, and the two just felt that this figure was a little familiar, as if they had seen it somewhere.

There are many people going up the mountain, and there are many people on the mountain at the moment, the residence of the Heavenly Master's Mansion specially used to entertain visitors, one by one, figures walked out from there, these people were accompanied by the Taoist priest of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and walked towards the Ancestor Celebration Square temporarily built by the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

From the number of Taoist priests and the age of the Taoist priests arranged for the reception by the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the strength of the forces represented by these guests can be clearly distinguished, like Chen Jie and his party, which are accompanied by a middle-aged Taoist priest from the Heavenly Master's Mansion and four Taoist children.

This is the treatment that only first-class forces have, and second-rate forces are accompanied by a young Taoist priest and two Taoist children, no matter how bad they are, they will naturally not receive an invitation from the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

Celebration Square, this is the temporary square of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, all made of bluestone and white jade, and at the same time, these white jade bricks and stones are engraved with the Nine Palaces Bagua symbols, if you look down from the sky, you will find that this is a huge Bagua Array.

The Patriarch Hall of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, at this moment, except for the Taoist priests who maintain order and guard the mountain gate, all the other Taoist priests in the Heavenly Master's Mansion have gathered in front of the Patriarch's Palace.

The leader was a man in his sixties wearing a purple innate cave robe.

The congenital cave robe is a kind of Taoist robe, also known as the magic robe, which can only be worn by the Taoist priest who presides over the ceremony when some large-scale Jiao ceremonies are held.

It is rumored that the purple qi came from the east when the ancestor Laozi rode the bull out of the customs, so Taoism respects the purple qi, and the one in front of him is wearing a purple congenital cave robe, which is embroidered with gold and silver threads with a pair of unicorns, Yuluo Xiaotai, gossip and sun, moon and star patterns.

All those who know something about the Heavenly Master's Mansion know that the only person in the entire Heavenly Master's Mansion can wear like this is the contemporary Zhang Tianshi.

The person in front of him is Zhang Guangkun, the Heavenly Master of this generation.

Under Zhang Guangkun, there are seven old men, these seven old men are the seven elders of the Heavenly Master Mansion, and the old man who appeared on the campus at the beginning is listed among them.

"Master Zu, please!"

Zhang Guangkun drank it all over, and the Taoist priests of the Thousand Heavenly Master's Mansion behind him knelt on the ground together, bowed to the ground with five bodies, and only got up after kneeling three times, and then eighteen Taoist children followed Zhang Guangkun into the Patriarch Temple.

The door of the Patriarch Hall also slowly closed at this moment, and the seven elders of the Heavenly Master Mansion glanced at each other, stood up from the ground, turned around and ordered, "Go to the Celebration Square." ”

At this moment, in the celebration square, Chen Jie and others were already sitting down in the position of the guests, and the two sisters Chen Jie and Chen Xin were very forward, and because of this, they attracted the attention of many people at the scene.

Miaoyue Palace, this is a relatively mysterious force in the metaphysical world, and Miaoyue Palace is full of female disciples, so it is naturally easy to attract attention.

Of course, there is another very important reason, that is, many people present have heard that the relationship between the new saintess of the Miaoyue Palace and Ye Shengge of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is not ordinary, and many forces have even made calculations in their hearts, if the Miaoyue Palace and the Heavenly Master's Mansion are really allied because of this, what impact will it have on the metaphysical world, and what kind of impact will they be affected?

"Sister, these people's eyes are very sharp, I feel that the whole person is going to be seen through by them. ”

Being watched by so many people, Chen Xin was a little restless, Chen Jie was indifferent, saw his sister's condition, and said: "Xiao Xin, you are not from the metaphysical world, if you don't adapt, go back to the room to rest first." ”

"No, I'm not going back. ”

Chen Xin shook her head resolutely, how could she leave at this time, from her sister's mouth, she already knew that Su Chen's guy might come to make trouble today, she had to watch from the side.

In fact, she made several calls to Su Chen last night, but unfortunately no one answered what had been displayed, and in the end she could only send a few messages to Su Chen's WeChat, but until now, she didn't wait for Su Chen's reply.

"Su Chen, what are you doing, you don't answer the phone and don't reply to the message?"

When Chen Xin muttered in his heart, at the foot of the mountain at this moment, there were also four figures.

Chen Feng, who carried the burden as always, Wang Mingcheng, who looked loyal and simple, Zhao Qing, who was dressed in plain white, and, of course, Su Chen.

Today's Su Chen, holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand and a bamboo basket behind his back, raised his eyes lightly, swept the three simple characters on the mountain gate, and his expression was neither happy nor sad.

"Su Chen, a disciple of the Tian family under the Xishen Sect, worship the mountain!"

Looking at these young Taoist priests at the mountain gate, Su Chen clenched his fists, his voice was neither light nor heavy, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.
