Chapter 272: The Master of the Hall

The sequelae brought about by the conquest of Goguryeo by the Celestial Empire were infinitely magnified at this time.

The Tibetan soldiers were strong, and the Celestial Empire had no power to fight back in the Western Regions, leaving only a lonely Xizhou city to survive.

Then, King Agaliming, who had been the prince of the Tubo royal court, cultivated the Buddha's body, which once again stirred up the entire Central Plains court turmoil.

In the rivers and lakes, after the formerly powerful Xuanji Gate, Drizzle Building, and Tiancheng Sect withdrew from the historical stage one after another, the Heavenly Demon Sect danced wildly, intending to dominate the martial arts.

Under the turmoil of all parties, only the situation in the middle of Shu, which is in a corner, is stable, which is naturally due to the return of the ancient sect Kunlun Temple, which decided to hold a Kunlun competition in Yizhou City, the capital of Shuzhong.

The so-called temple remnants are still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after a thousand years.

Since Xue Li was pulled to Xizhou City by Li Tiantu, Su Ling'er had already understood that Xizhou City no longer needed herself, and at that time she was already preparing for the Kunlun Dabi.

The four guardian families have been arranged by her in advance to all parts of Shuzhong Dao, and because of this, the turmoil of the entire Celestial Empire has not extended to Shuzhong Dao.

In the past few days, almost half of the people in the rivers and lakes have gathered in the middle of Shu, and the disciples of various factions who can enter the threshold of Kunlun Dabi naturally hope to take the opportunity to enter the Kunlun Temple of the ancient sect, even if they can't be inner disciples, it is good to mix with an outer disciple, at least they can have peace of mind under the protection of the temple. It's just that the extremely high threshold of Kunlun Dabi has blocked most of the children of the Jianghu Sect outside, and those ordinary Jianghu disciples who have no hope because of their lack of cultivation at the beginning either want to open their eyes and see the next world, or they are afraid of the cruel and murderous Heavenly Demon Sect, and take refuge in the middle of Shu Dao sheltered by the Kunlun Temple, and even some people with ulterior motives want to take advantage of the chaos of Dabi to fish in troubled waters.

This time, Su Ling'er ordered the four major inheritance families as one of the three hall masters of the temple to undertake the affairs of Kunlun Dabi.

Linxian Building, the Governor's Mansion of Yizhou, finally ushered in its third occupant in less than a year.

The hall on the first floor of the Linxian Building has become a temporary place for Su Ling'er and the heads of the four major families at the outer gate of the temple to discuss the matter of Kunlun Dabi.

Su Ling'er sat in the center of the main seat, and the palace map stood behind.

The four main families are seated on both sides of the lower head.

In the past few days, Su Ling'er's thoughts have been a little disturbed, she is not worth it for her son, and she almost gave up her life to be able to protect Xizhou City, but in exchange for the incomprehension of the monarchs and ministers of the Heavenly Empire. When it came to this time of internal and external troubles, the Celestial Empire still couldn't let go of the big country in the Central Plains, and refused to lower its arrogant head. If the city of Xizhou is taken down, and the king of Tubo Ming achieves the golden body of the Buddha again, the next will be more than a simple frontier battle, it is very likely to affect the hinterland of the Central Plains. The Heavenly Demon Sect is stirring up trouble in the Central Plains, and it must be inseparable from the support of the Tubo royal court, she has no reason not to believe that the courtiers of the Son of Heaven of the Celestial Dynasty can't see this, what are those people in the court waiting for? There is still no way out, and he has cut off his hands and feet at this juncture.

Su Ling'er rubbed the temples on both sides of her forehead vigorously, and laughed at herself in her heart, of course, this is just a hypothesis, Xizhou City has not been lost after all, I heard that Gongzi has returned to the Western Regions, with Gongzi here, of course Xizhou City will not be lost in a short time. She was just unhappy for Gongzi, lost her official position, and became famous in the Celestial Empire, did they all calculate that Gongzi would continue to guard the Western Regions for the Celestial Empire?

The worse news seems to be still to come, Shuzhong Dao and Tubo are only separated by Kunlun, and it is the closest Daozhou to Tubo in the Celestial Empire, and the news from Tubo is naturally the first to know.

In the early morning of this day, Hua Canghai, the governor of Yizhou, urgently asked for a meeting and brought the latest news about what happened in Tubo. Gongzi not only arrived in the capital of Tubo, but was also pointed out by King Agali Ming in front of hundreds of thousands of subjects in Tubo that it was because of his help that the Buddha was achieved, and what is surprising is that Gongzi finally accepted the invitation of King Ming and stayed in Yuzhu Temple, the royal temple of the Tubo royal court. How is all this like a dream?

All kinds of news from this are overwhelmingly spread in Tubo, and labels such as surrender and treason have been placed on Li Tiantu by people with good intentions, and it is believed that it will soon spread to the entire Heavenly Empire.

Hua Canghai, as the host of this Kunlun competition, also deeply understands Li Tiantu's true identity, of course he understands the troubles of Master Su, but although this so-called rumor stops at the wise, the foolish people in the world account for the majority, and this is the reason why everyone is making money.

Seeing that Hall Master Su was still frowning, he coughed lightly and reminded tentatively: "Hall Master Su, Hall Master he may have other intentions, and the most important thing at the moment is the matter of Kunlun Dabi." ”

After Su Ling'er came back to her senses, she looked around, and finally her gaze stayed on Hua Canghai, nodded and said: "The temple is approaching, this time one inner disciple and eight outer disciples will be selected externally." In addition, according to the usual practice, our four guardian families selected the best two from within to directly become inner disciples. As for the outer disciples, each family has two places to be directly selected. ”

The four masters couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard this, and they were already familiar with the genealogy, and they naturally knew that the number of places given by the temple this time was definitely twice as many as the previous practice, and this was naturally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.

Hua Canghai took the lead and said: "Thanks to the care of the hall master and the Su hall master, my subordinates are willing to do their best for my Kunlun Temple, and they will die." ”

The other three heads of the family also chimed in.

The loyalty of the four guardian families is beyond doubt, and Su Ling'er secretly sighs in her heart that the unfathomable power of the temple can make the disciples who have entered the world guarding outside the temple loyal for a thousand years, how much faith power is needed.

Su Ling'er pondered for a moment and said, "Master Hua, you need to worry more about the layout of the venue in the future, and it must be completed within a month." ”

Hua Canghai nodded and said, "Please rest assured, Hall Master Su." The Dabi venue is located in the school field in the south of the city, and preparations have already begun. ”

He paused suddenly, and then smiled at the other three family heads and said, "It's just that there have been more and more people in the nearby rivers and lakes in recent days, and I also ask Brother Xia, Brother Shen and Brother Yin to support a lot." ”

Xia Xiaotian of the Xia family, Shen Ao of the Shen family, and Yin Yuexing of the Yin family still have some complaints about the fact that this big competition is hosted by Washington, so although they have been in Yizhou for some time, they have never interfered in the affairs of the big competition, so they are naturally waiting for Hua Canghai, the old fox, to lower his posture and ask them softly, so that they can take the opportunity to count. It's just that they didn't expect this old fox to use the authority of Hall Master Su to put pressure on them, and the three of them had to nod helplessly under Su Ling'er's gaze.

Su Ling'er, who saw through all this, didn't break it, and said with a slight smile: "Ling'er on behalf of the temple, thank you all the family masters." Ling'er will leave for a while tomorrow, and there will be all of you here during this time. ”
