Faced with this problem, Zhang Lin gave a strange explanation: "Tiantiao. When he finished speaking, he laughed disdainfully, "The word Tiantiao is like a law, sacred and inviolable." But now in the era of the end of the law, there are no immortals in the world, but there is still the intervention of heaven. Isn't that ironic? But thanks to the existence of the Heavenly Rules, cultivators don't go too far. ”

"Since the Tang Dynasty, it has become a law that there are no immortals in the world. Although there was a white eyebrow soaring later, it is just an accident now, and it cannot be counted. The result of not being able to become an immortal could not help but make some restless monks have other ideas - to control the government. The most famous of these was the Jiajing Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Jiajing believed in Taoism all his life, and even gave himself three Taoist titles: Lingxiao Shangqing Tong Lei Yuanyang Miao Yifei Yuan Zhenjun; the second and third names are longer, referred to as Emperor Zhongxiao and Emperor Wanshou. Except for the attendants around him, he was a Taoist who thought his name was Lan Daoren. Lan Dao people have a flat life, and their cultivation is not bad, and in the end, they broke through to the middle stage of the realm of returning to the void and became a master of fame. It's too cold to be in a high place! There is no expectation of becoming an immortal above, so naturally you have to think about other things to pass the time. So he came to Emperor Jiajing under the recommendation of Xu Jie, the cabinet minister at the time, and became his royal Taoist. ”

Wu Zhong asked puzzledly: "This Blue Daoist wants to control the court, why doesn't he become the emperor himself?"

Zhang Lin raised his eyebrows and said: "There are two explanations for this matter, one is that the Landao people think that their qualifications are not good and they can't manage a country, so they want to be the people behind the scenes." On the one hand, from the Tang Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, in hundreds of years of history, there was no bold person to seek the emperor and usurp the throne. The emperor is the Emperor of the Ninety-Five, but he is protected by God. And if there is a Taoist who does not know what to do to murder the Ninety-Five, God will inevitably condemn him. Therefore, the Lan Dao people were very smart and did not directly interfere with the imperial power, but indirectly manipulated Emperor Jiajing. In this way, not only did he gain a high enough status, but Emperor Jiajing also became something in his hands, and he could handle it at will. ”

At that time, under the influence of the Lan Dao people, the Daomen of the world were extremely prosperous, and he himself won the support of the Taoist priests of the world and became the uncrowned king. But Ren Landao people have thousands of calculations, and they are not bigger than the sky. Just when he was proud, heaven punished him, took away his Taoism, and became the mortal he looked down on the most. And at this moment, Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet at that time, grabbed him and corrected the law on the spot. According to the little Taoist priest around him that day, that day the Lan Daoist suddenly had a whim and meditated and cultivated. The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and the black clouds overwhelmed the city, which was very scary. Suddenly, a thunderbolt fell from the sky, heading straight for the Lan Dao people. Where can the Lan Dao people resist the heavenly thunder, they were immediately entered by the heavenly thunder, and the meridians were suddenly broken, and the original spirit was destroyed, leaving only one soul and one soul. And this soul was also returned to the underworld under Yan Song's arrangement. When he died, the king of Chujiang, the judge, and the black and white impermanence suddenly appeared in the courtyard, followed by a bull head and a horse face. That formation is terrifying. And the king of Chu Jiang even announced the sin of the Lan Dao people on the spot: disturbing the court, seducing the emperor, and intending to tamper with the imperial family, which violated the rules of heaven. On the spot, he announced that he had entered the eighteenth layer of hell and would never be able to turn over.

This matter was spread by the little Taoist priests who were onlookers, and only then did it come to the saying that cultivators were not allowed to interfere with the secular regime. Zhang Lin said.

Wu Zhong nodded slowly: "I see, no wonder the Taoist priests who have cultivated to become powerful have only formed the Jing'an Division, and they don't participate in or even control politics." But what does this have to do with renting a house?"

Zhang Lin glanced at him, as if he was looking at an idiot: "Are you stupid? Think about it, if you live in seclusion in the world, your opponent will inevitably cast a mouse." Otherwise, even if they arrest you or kill you, the worldly people around you will definitely be implicated, and even die or be injured. Once this kind of thing happens, there is no need for the government to want it, and the Jing'an Division will first come forward to investigate and deal with it, and it will be directly scattered. ”

When Wu Zhong heard this, he was stunned again: "I have encountered an incident with this money, it seems that the people of Yinshan slaughtered the entire village, why does no one care about it?"

Zhang Lin frowned, and said suspiciously, "Is there such a thing?"

"This is what I saw with my own eyes, and with me there are also the empty rumors of Baiyun Temple and the whispers of Yuejiayue. Wu Zhong said firmly.

Now it was Zhang Lin's turn to be puzzled: "Shouldn't it? What happened after this incident? Jing'an Division didn't do anything?"

Wu Zhong got angry when he thought of this, and snorted: "It's done, it's fine." ”

Zhang Lin's brows deepened. How can there be hundreds of people in a village? Hundreds of lives are just gone, and they are still worldly people, how can they do this?

"I'm afraid there is something strange, there should be more than Yinshan behind this. Zhang Lin said, "Don't tell me about this, otherwise you will definitely be killed." What you listen to me is that renting a house in the downtown area can keep you safe. Then he turned and went to sleep.

Wu Zhong naturally didn't say much when he saw this, so let's follow his advice and go see a suitable place tomorrow.

The next day, Wu Zhong visited the internal and external structures under the leadership of Xiao Ping, as well as some of the main projects on his side. Although there are many shops in this street, they are only two stories high, and the only tall building is the building called Vientiane Building, which is located in the center of this street. The building is tall and covers a wide area, but the entrance and exit are sealed, which shows its importance.

"This is the Vientiane Building, which is generally only opened for major events, and is not usually used. Xiao Ping explained.

Then he took Wu Zhong to look at other places. Walking down this street, Wu Zhong saw that there were pills, magic weapons, herbs, and even a witch Gu in a corner, which really covered a lot, and there was an endless stream of people who went to trade, and in the end they all returned with a full load.

"How do you feel?" Xiao Ping said with a smile.

Wu Zhong sighed: "It's an eye-opener. ”

Xiao Ping laughed when he heard this: "Our Xiao family's business name is one of the best in Tianjie. And Tianjie is the most prosperous place in the world, as long as you can think of it, there is nothing you can't find here. ”

Wu Zhong looked at the surrounding shops and admired them sincerely.

"Originally, I took you out to show you a shop and occasionally go out with me to buy something. But now I've changed my mind. In the future, you will only listen to my dispatch, and you don't need to do anything at ordinary times, just wait for my news at any time. Xiao Ping said with a smile.

Last night, Wu Zhong chatted with Zhang Lin and talked about the arrangement for himself, thinking that like everyone else, he would start from a small house, and then slowly be promoted to Xiao Ping's subordinates. Unexpectedly, he has crossed other steps at once and directly become a member of the foreign affairs department like Zhang Lin.

Wu Zhong naturally knew that this was the other party's overture to him, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, second brother, for lifting up." ”

Xiao Ping smiled and said, "If you work hard in the future, I won't treat you badly." I still have something to do, you can go around casually first, and if you don't want to live in the business, go out and settle down. Just pack it up and talk to me. Then he waved his hand and walked into the distance.

Since this is the case, Wu Zhong naturally wants to go to Zhang Lin to arrange for renting. But when he returned to the business, he learned that Zhang Lin was called away by Xiao Ping, and the others didn't know him, so he had to go out alone.

Leaving the Heavenly Street, the thick aura of cultivation disappeared from the surroundings, replaced by the long-lost atmosphere of the market: the traffic, the noise of people, the cries of joint vendors, and the residual warmth of the sun shining through the leaves.

Returning to this state of life, a rare comfort slowly enveloped Wu Zhong and made him feel comfortable.

But now we still have to solve the problem of housing first.

According to Zhang Lin's recommendation, it is natural to live in the downtown area. Although he is not afraid of others coming to find trouble, Wu Zhong is still happy to have a little less trouble.

He walked to the center of the city and saw the modern city with many high-rise buildings, and he didn't know what to do for a while. In the end, I still give full play to the spirit of professionals to do professional things, and entrust my needs to intermediaries. Coincidentally, the other party happened to have a house in his hand to rent, and the two immediately set off for their destination.

When he arrived at his destination, Wu Zhong found that it was an old community, although it was located in the center of the city, it was extremely secluded, and it was not affected by the traffic on the side of the road in the slightest.

"This community is more than 20 years old, and it was a relatively early batch of high-rise buildings at that time. Now there are some middle-aged and elderly people living here, and there are very few young cows like you. And these old neighbors also greeted each other, saying don't make a fuss, I see that you are a quiet child, so I recommend it to you, but naturally, the rent will be higher. I just don't know if you can accept it on your side. The eldest sister of the intermediary said while pushing the electric car.

Wu Zhong smiled and said, "Let's look at the house first." ”

"Good. ”

The floor of the house recommended by this eldest sister is not very good, 18th floor. When the two took the elevator to the eighteenth floor, Wu Zhong finally knew why this place had not been rented.

Just imagine, in the 30-degree heat outside, the 18th floor is cloudy and windy, and it is extremely dark, how will you feel? Wu Zhong was not afraid, but the eldest sister was already obviously getting goosebumps.

"This is the 18th floor. The eldest sister trembled a little when she spoke, but in order to save other people's face, Wu Zhong did not expose it.

Wu Zhong walked ahead of the eldest sister. The structure of this community is not quite the same as other places, with two stairs and eight households, and it is estimated that the area of residents inside is not very large. And the eldest sister did not explain the information of this community, it is estimated that she finally met a foreigner who can be fooled, and she should hurry up and get rid of this hot potato. In the corridor, from east to west, eight doors are arranged in sequence, and it is because of this magical structure that most of the direct sunlight is hidden, making it not only damp, but also musty. Coupled with the old doors and mottled walls, it is really a good place to shoot ghost movies.

At this time, the door at the end of the corridor opened, and the eldest sister behind her involuntarily grabbed Wu Zhong. Wu Zhong didn't panic, because he obviously felt that the other party was alone, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

The old man glanced up at someone and returned to the house.

The eldest sister pretended to smile and said, "Handsome guy, I'll go in and have a look, if you don't like it, I'll find you somewhere else." "In the spirit of professionalism, since they have already come, then I recommend it!
