In the Taoist temple, the winding path leads to seclusion.

This Taoist temple of Qingcheng Mountain has been repaired several times a long time ago.

Since Li Xiong officially worshipped Fan Changsheng, the old Taoist of Guanzhong, as a teacher, in order to show his respect for the teacher, and also to advocate the Tao of the Heavenly Master, he has sent a large number of people to repair and rebuild it three times.

Now this Taoist temple occupies the place halfway up the mountain, and from a distance, the houses are continuous, and I am afraid that it can be compared with the land of the palace.

In fact, not only these Taoist houses, but also the entire mountain is now the property of the Heavenly Master of Shudi, and the hunters and farmers under the mountain are all tenant farmers of the Taoist temple, and they are a veritable big landlord.

And now in the court of Nashu, there are many officials and officials who were born in the Tao of Heavenly Masters, and above the court, they can be regarded as a force, in order to deepen the connection between each other and clarify the interests of each other, the feedback and feedback to this Taoist temple has become the simplest and most direct choice.

The development to the present has made this mountain Taoist temple, its influence and the scope of influence more and more intense.

Of course, correspondingly, with the expansion of the territory, the corresponding responsibility will also be greater, while leading the Taoism of Shudi, it is also necessary to take on the responsibility of maintaining the water and soil of one side.

As a result, the old Taoist priest who could still be free from the world and only looked for longevity and long-term vision had to put down the lantern, sit in the view, and smell the mysteries.

The green smoke curls in the main hall of the Taoist temple, and the old Taoist sits on the futon, with a few bright lights in front of him, and the smoke slowly condenses under the guidance of inexplicable power.

Zhang Xuan, who was standing on the side of the door, stared at the curling green smoke intently, and shook his head lightly from time to time.

He could already see that the smoke was not disorderly, but slowly gathered up, and copied a map of the Central Plains, dividing the north and south.

"Although this smoke is one-third, the southwest Shu is the weakest, and the foundation is shallow......"

He soon saw that the map made of the smoke was faintly divided into three families, one in the north, one in the southeast, and one in the southwest.

The north is the most solidified, and although it is formed by the accumulation of smoke, it looks like it is a silk thread, and it is almost condensed into substance.

Looking at the southeast again, although it is still smoky, it seems extremely complicated, and the smoke and smoke are still entangled with each other and affect each other, but there is a trace of heavy breath, even if there is a majestic wind blowing, it will not collapse.

Corresponding to it is the southwest piece of smoke.

This piece of smoke looks very clear, without the feeling of entanglement and indistinctness of the southeast smoke, but it is not as good as the other two on the turf.

And whenever the wind blows, the smoke in this area will fluctuate, and even if the air flow is a little stronger, the smoke will show signs of falling apart!

"In the end, the foundation is still not enough, the north has money, food, soldiers, and people, and there is more heritage, and there is the image of swallowing mountains and rivers, and the land on the left side of the southeast river occupies an orthodox name, and it will not completely collapse in any case, but this Shu land is a rebellion that started and stole a land, and the lord of the country is not a descendant of the Central Plains."

"This is a congenital disadvantage in luck, if the Central Plains is in turmoil, and finally the decline of the Han family is okay, if it is a chaotic situation, then Shu can be peaceful, the north and the south are fighting each other, weakening each other, as long as there is no decisive force that is enough to run rampant before the emergence of one side, you can slowly accumulate strength, but the problem is that the current situation is the most unfavorable!"

"Unorthodox, rebellious, decisive forces in the Northlands, and it is clear that they are going to attack, then the result is ......"

Zhang Xuan was thinking about it, and suddenly, a gust of wind blew, directly stirring the air flow in the main hall, and he saw that the territory formed by the condensation of the smoke suddenly changed violently, and the northern piece suddenly pressed over, directly covering the southeast and southwest, of which the southeast was broken in half, and the southwest was completely covered!

Seeing this scene, Zhang Xuan was stunned at first, then sighed, and finally shook his head.

"It seems that you have already seen the luck of this Shu land."

The old man's voice rang out.

Zhang Xuan followed the sound and then saluted respectfully.

The person who spoke was none other than the old Taoist priest Fan Changsheng, who opened his eyes and sighed.

"Teacher, I don't know the situation in Shudi, but there is still room for change?" Zhang Xuan walked over and lowered his head to ask.

The old Taoist priest did not answer, but asked rhetorically: "You are a person who has been in the Northland, and the time is not short, and you have even met that champion Hou, so in your opinion, how much room for change is there?" ”

Zhang Xuan, the land of him, once went to the north.

At that time, Li Xiong came to visit and asked Fan Changsheng to come out of the mountain to assist, and Fan Changsheng made several requests at that time, one of which was to let Zhang Xuan be sent to the north.

Zhang Xuan went to the north, it was the old Taoist's calculation, it was he who saw that there was a change in luck over there, so he gave an order, and after Zhang Xuan passed, he did not stay for a long time, but then went there a few times.

During this period, he had a certain friendship with Sun Xiu, the successor of Taoism in the North, and then this relationship also operated some network of contacts in the North, which also gave some scholars and officials in the Northland a place to agree, and the alchemy and chanting originally needed a certain economic foundation, so these networks are really useful.

Even in the middle of Youzhou's restructuring, relying on this network, Zhang Xuan also expressed some views to Chen Zhi, and was even invited over to ask for opinions.

After reminiscing, Zhang Xuan replied truthfully: "What students see and hear in the Northland, they can wash their Dao hearts, and when they see that champion Hou, they know that there are people who are born to know, and there are even natural sages. ”

"That's it," Fan Changsheng sighed and shook his head, "That champion Hou is a powerful person, I see him along the way, constantly accumulating momentum, this luck is even higher, during the period there are several crises, not only survived, but also plundered the luck of the heroes of the Northland, now this person has become a big trend, has accumulated a hundred years of luck, and is not satisfied, to swallow the world, how can this be resisted?" ”

"Is it really that powerful?" Zhang Xuan was also taken aback, he knew that his own teacher actually had some mysterious techniques, involving the way of Xuanxuan Qi and luck, and there were more means of passing through the shadows, so Li Xiong had been able to go so smoothly over the years, so he had this credit, and now the old Taoist priest is also at a loss.

"It's not that there is no way," the old Taoist priest pondered for a while, "but it can't cure the root, at most, it's a delay, so that the Li family has a time to choose, then Li Xiong is respectful, I should seek it for him." ”

Zhang Xuan heard some other things from these words, and couldn't help but worry, and was about to speak, but saw that the old Taoist priest shook his head, and just asked him to bring people in.
