After accompanying the little girl to eat in the store, I looked at the time and found that it was already eleven forty o'clock, and there were two familiar breaths standing there, as if waiting for me.

"Hey, Brother Gu Li, where are you going?" Seeing Gu Li get up, the little girl asked in surprise.

"I'm going to an appointment, Xiaoqi, you stay here and do your homework, I'll be back soon." Gently touching her little head, Gu Li walked out of the store with a long sword.

As for why I had to take a long sword when I went to the appointment, on the one hand, it was because of the sword maintenance method of "Imperial Spirit Sword Qi", and on the other hand, it was for safety.

Even if the other party releases goodwill, there should still be a sense of self-preservation, which is a habit cultivated in the past few years of fighting demons, and it is estimated that it will not be changed.

It was the sound of the night wind and Bai Miao who came to pick him up, driving quietly along the way, and not talking, as if he was frightened by Gu Li's realm last night, and felt a little more awe.

Faced with this situation, Gu Li didn't say anything, he knew that it was inevitable, and he didn't go out of his way to correct it, everyone's ideas are different, and there is no need to impose his own ideas on others.

After turning several roads, driving into an underground garage, and watching the wall next to him open, Gu Li said with a smile: "Is it really the shadow of the empire?" ”

"There's no way around it, it's different in every city." Hearing him speak, the sound of the night wind relaxed all over, turned around and said with a wry smile: "Come with us later, Master Qingchen has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"Hmm."

After the car stopped, Gu Li opened the door and walked out, looking at the brightly lit hall in the distance, people coming and going, and some people looking at themselves, as if they were curious about where the newcomer came from.

"Go this way." Bai Miao made an inviting gesture to Gu Li and led him down another aisle.

This aisle was obviously commonly used by Bai Miao and other cultivators, in order to facilitate their tasks, so there were very few people, but there were many rooms in the aisle.

Walking all the way inside, when he came to the door of a room called the minister's room, Bai Miao stopped, stretched out his hand to Gu Li and said, "Master Qingchen has already made tea and is waiting for you, so we won't go in." ”

"Hmm."

Nodding lightly with a smile, Gu Li stretched out his hand to open the door and walked in.

"It's a sin that the old man can't come to the door in person, so he can only invite fellow Daoists here." Master Qingchen looked at Gu Li who walked in, his cloudy eyes seemed to become brighter, and he got up and folded his hands and said.

"Daoyou is serious." Taoist etiquette returned the salute, Gu Li looked at the decoration in the room, a wooden bed, a table, two chairs, and a wooden cabinet, so he said with a smile: "Daoist friends are so simple, don't you like gorgeous things?" ”

"Lao Ke doesn't understand what the gorgeousness in the mouth of Daoyou is, if Daoyou refers to gems and other mundane things, then Lao Ke naturally doesn't like it." After inviting Gu Li to sit down, Master Qingchen folded his hands and smiled lightly: "A Buddhist scripture can solve my confusion, and a thousand words can make me sensible, why do I need these mundane things to move my Buddha's heart." ”

"Daoyou is right." Reaching out and picking up the teapot and pouring a cup of tea for Master Qingchen, and then pouring himself a cup of tea, Gu Li said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then why does Daoyou value the position of power and receive the order of the empire as a royal spirit?" ”

"Amitabha, what is the difference between the suffering of living beings in the world, the breeding of demons, and the old man protecting the safety of the world with his weak body, and being ordered by the empire?" The compassion on Master Qingchen's body became stronger and stronger, and he looked at Gu Li calmly and asked, "Daoist friends have ascended to the Imperial Spirit before the age of the weak crown, and it is precisely because everything they do contains the will of heaven that they can go so fast with their luck. ”

"In that case, why not go the other way?"

Looking at Master Shangqingchen's calm eyes, Gu Li couldn't see any desire to be attached to power in his eyes, only those calm eyes with compassion were always watching him.

The aura around him slowly surged, and a little brilliance lit up in the depths of his eyes, Gu Li opened his spiritual eyes and looked at Master Qingchen.

"Amitabha." Master Qingchen clasped his hands together, closed his eyes, and the spiritual power in his whole body slowly fell silent, without making any resistance.

It can be said that if Gu Li makes a move now, he can seriously injure the unsuspecting Dust Clearing Master in an instant, and may even kill him directly.

But Gu Li didn't make a move, but looked at the stars that popped up from time to time on Master Qingchen's body in a daze.

Brilliant and bright.

"Merit..."

Although there were pitiful few, Gu Li could still feel the meaning of these stars, and in a trance, he seemed to hear voices thanking Master Qingchen.

"When he was a monk, he didn't have the right thoughts, he did a lot of regrets, and he did good deeds in the second half of his life, and he never thought about cultivating." Master Qingchen slowly opened his eyes, looked at Gu Li, who was stunned, and said: "It's just that fate is coming, and I can comprehend the method of cultivation from the Buddhist scriptures, and it will take four years to have this realm." ”

"Lao Wei can understand the jealousy of Daoyou, although the imperial national fortune can make Lao Gao and others practice faster and have their thoughts attained, but it will also bind Lao Gao and others, and they are truly tied to the imperial national fortune."

Seeing the confusion in Gu Li's eyes, Master Qingchen said with a smile: "Since you can live a few more years and repent and do good, what about Lao Qu being tied to the fortunes of the country?" ”

"Daoyou is very good."

Gu Li stood up and gave a salute, and when he reached their realm, he could vaguely feel whether the other party was telling the truth or not, so he was surprised, it seemed that the monks in this world had a kind of self-sacrificing spirit of 'I don't go to hell, who will go to hell'.

"Amitabha." Standing up to return the salute, Master Qingchen took out two pieces of paper and said, "Since Daoist friends don't want to go the same way, then Lao Qu can only be cheeky to take out this." ”

After taking the two pieces of paper, he first looked at the first paper, which read "The Preliminary Draft of the Supernumerary Personnel of the Emperor Shadow", and Gu Li looked at it carefully.

Although there was a lot of content in it, he read it quickly.

The core content of this paper is very simple, that is, to recruit cultivators to become supernumerary personnel and enjoy some permissions, but there is a certain price to pay.

The stronger the strength to help Emperor Shadow crusade against demons, the more privileges he will enjoy.

In other words, the Emperor Shadow can agree that you will not join, and it can also give you the permission of the Emperor Shadow, but you must fight for it yourself.

Putting down the two pieces of paper, Gu Li's eyes flickered slightly.

To be honest, he was a little moved, after all, the words 'crusade against demons and other evil things' were deliberately drawn with thin lines, which meant that the Emperor Shadow would not ask you to do it in other aspects.

As long as you get rid of the demon, then you can increase your authority!

This content is more or less consistent with his actions, and there are no discrepancies, as if they were intended for him.

Master Qingchen was not in a hurry, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, and then recited the Buddhist scriptures silently.

"Can you please ask a question?" Gu Li picked up the last piece of paper, pointed to the last three words 'Supervision Envoy' with a smile and said, "Since you are a supernumerary, why can you still supervise the personnel of the Emperor Shadow Branch?" ”

"Could it be that this 'Inspector' is the most important point of this document?"
