The use of soldiers should be like arms and hands, such as fingers, Tiangang Hall is the center of soldiers, and the soldiers of Daomen are spiritual officers, so Tiangang Hall is the hall with the most spiritual officers.

Since the spiritual officer is a soldier, then the Taoist priest is an official, and the cardinal who uses the official is Ziweitang, so Ziweitang, who holds the power of personnel, is the head of the nine halls.

Each hall is located in the Xuandu, with the only exception being Ziwei Hall, which is located in the Purple Mansion and does not directly interact with the other eight halls, and is the closest to Jinque. This alone can also see the transcendent status of Ziwei Hall, which should make the other eight halls look sideways.

Because the Purple Mansion is equivalent to the palace city of the imperial capital, it is the center of Yujing, not only there is the Golden Gate that symbolizes the highest authority of the Daomen, but also the Zixiao Palace, where the Great Palm Sect resides, which is located above the True Realm Courtyard, the Great True Mansion, and the Wanshou Chongyang Palace. Therefore, judging from the appearance alone, Ziweitang cannot be said to be simple, but it can be placed in Yujing, which is very immortal, and it is very ordinary, far from being comparable with other eight halls, compared with many local Taoist mansions and Taoist palaces, and cannot be compared, just like an ordinary Taoist palace.

But it was such a seemingly ordinary place that decided the fate of hundreds of thousands of Taoist priests.

Lei Xiaohuan walked into Ziwei Hall on foot and walked slowly along a path. Along the way, there are Taoist priests in magic robes, which is also the only place in the nine halls where Taoist priests are used to replace the spirit officials, and all of them reflect the detachment of Ziwei Hall.

Lei Xiaohuan quickened his pace, these Taoist priests obviously recognized Lei Xiaohuan and did not stop him.

Lei Xiaohuan came to the front of the main hall, hanging a plaque "Heard in the sky", there was a young Taoist priest waiting here, after seeing Lei Xiaohuan coming, silently led Lei Xiaohuan to the back of the duty room.

Compared with the duty room of Tiangang Hall, the duty room of Ziwei Hall is much smaller, and the furnishings inside are even simpler, a table, a few chairs, except for a chair placed behind the bookcase, the rest of the chairs are placed against the wall left and right.

After Lei Xiaohuan came in, he saw a middle hall: "The world is peaceful".

It is said to be written by Xuansheng himself, and it has been hanging for 200 years.

There is a person sitting behind the table, and his eyebrows are somewhat similar to Pei Xiaolou, but the gas is not like it at all, there is no Pei Xiaolou's obscene and slippery, only the fairy wind bones, and it reveals a bit of compelling majesty, it is Lei Xiaohuan, and he can't help but look solemn, and he doesn't dare to be slack.

After the young Taoist priest led Lei Xiaohuan in, he quietly retreated.

The person behind the bookcase did not get up to greet him, or even raised his head, but was still writing and criticizing.

Lei Xiaohuan didn't speak, just stood and waited.

After a while, the Taoist finally finished the words, and then raised his head, and his voice was low and deep: "Brother and sister don't have to be restrained, please sit down." ”

Lei Xiaohuan sat down on a chair at this time.

The Taoist is Pei Xiaolou's brother, the head of Ziwei Hall, and the second person of Quanzhen Dao, Pei Xuanzhi, a real person in Donghua.

The word "zhi" is used in the name, which means Taoist believers, similar to the Buddhist "interpretation", "law", and "tan" used in the name. Therefore, many times, people who have been preaching the Tao for generations have a "zhi" in the name of the father and son, and there is no so-called evasion, such as the famous Shusheng family.

There is a word "zhi" in Pei Xuanzhi's name, but Pei Xiaolou is not called Pei Louzhi, that is the attitude of the two brothers, Pei Xuanzhi has not been married so far, and the Pei family will fall on Pei Xiaolou in the future, Lei Xiaohuan is also the mother of the Pei family, Pei Xuanzhi is still quite polite to this brother and daughter-in-law.

Pei Xuanzhi asked, "Are you here for that?" ”

"Yes." Lei Xiaohuan nodded.

Pei Xuanzhi nodded, took out a warrant from the case files piled up on the table, confirmed it, and put it on the table and pushed it forward.

Lei Xiaohuan hurriedly got up and took it.

Pei Xuanzhi said: "I have read his file, except for some problems with the suspension of the year, there are no other problems. As for the suspension of the year, as long as it is under the four grades, it can also be solved within the rules. There's just one thing, how do you explain that he's not dead? If you can't explain it clearly, it's a handle that is exposed, and someone will make a fuss about it. ”

Lei Xiaohuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Lin Pavilion means to ...... in the name of my brother."

"Lin Pavilion" is Pei Xiaolou's expression, only in front of Pei Xuanzhi, Lei Xiaohuan will use this title.

"Claiming to the outside world that I saved him, as long as I admit it, then this matter will be stopped here, is that what it means?" Pei Xuanzhi was not surprised.

Lei Xiaohuan nodded.

Pei Xuanzhi was noncommittal, and said instead: "The future of the Quanzhen Dao does not lie in the earth master, nor in me, but in the young disciples. When it comes to young people, it's not just as simple as one Yao Pei, a good man needs three gangs, we need a large number of excellent young people. I have read all his information and resume, his qualifications are not good, but his heart is good. Qualifications can be made up for the day after tomorrow, but the heart is innate. Such a person, who was born in the Vientiane Dao Palace, should have been a disciple of our Quanzhen Dao, but in the end, he went to Zhengyi in a daze, which was a loss for our Quanzhen Dao. I have to say that Zhang Yuelu still has some vision, and it is abnormal for Zhang Yuelu to look down on him. ”

Lei Xiaohuan didn't expect that Pei Xuanzhi, as the real person in charge of Ziwei Hall, would understand the past experience of a low-grade Taoist priest in such detail, and he couldn't help but ask tentatively: "What does my brother mean, let him return to the True Dao?" ”

Pei Xuanzhi said: "The destruction of the Yuan family is only the tip of the iceberg, and the iceberg hidden under the sea is not sure how big. Jin Que has decided to set up a temporary investigation team led by Ziwei Tang and Tiangang Hall, Beichen Hall, Fengxian Hall, Duzhi Hall, Wanshou Chongyang Palace, and Jiangnan Provincial Government to conduct an in-depth investigation. Among the members, Lin Pavilion represents Wanshou Chongyang Palace, Zhang Yuelu represents Tiangang Hall, and Ziwei Hall still lacks a representative, so you will come forward and put him under your name, do you have any opinions? ”

"Nope." Lei Xiaohuan replied with a lowered hand.

Pei Xuanzhi waved his hand: "That's it." ”

"Yes." Lei Xiaohuan respectfully withdrew from the room.

……

Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou re-boarded the iron ship and continued north along the Grand Canal.

The prosthetic leg was wrapped in cloth by Qi Xuansu and carried on his back, which was not very eye-catching.

After passing three more passes, at the sixth pass, the iron ship temporarily docked, replenished some coal, and Qi Xuansu also got off the boat to buy a copy of the Daomen's mansion newspaper.

Although it is a Daomen Di newspaper, it is printed by Qingping Books, and it is clearly distributed to the world, anyone can buy it, but the quantity is limited, and sometimes it may not be able to buy. Today, Qi Xuansu was lucky and just bought a copy.

Qi Xuansu saw at first glance that Jin Que had made the decision to set up a temporary investigation team for the Zixian Mountain case, but the list of members was not announced. This is also the style of the Daomen, which never conceals the general direction, but often blurs the specific details for confidentiality and other considerations. Qi Xuansu speculated that Zhang Yuelu and Pei Xiaolou must be one of them.

In addition, people who have read the newspaper for many years will understand a truth, the more words or the fewer words, the bigger the matter. If the number of words is so large that it is long and accumulating, then it is used to integrate people's hearts and occupy the righteous name and moral high ground. The fewer words, the more concise and without any comments or detailed interpretations, the seriousness of the situation.

Qi Xuansu never thought that the matter of killing Su Ran in Zixian Mountain would make trouble to this point, which can be said to affect the whole body.

If the matter is exposed, I don't know how many people want to put him to death.

Every time he thought of this, Qi Xuansu felt a little chill in his back.

In addition, Liu Futong's crime and the process of solving the case were also disclosed in the newspaper, and Zhang Yuelu was written a special book, if it weren't for Qi Xuansu who knew Zhang Yuelu's personality, he would have thought that Zhang Yuelu spent money to hire someone to tout herself.

As for Liu Futong's fate, although he has not yet been finally convicted, he will probably be unable to escape death, and those properties will be confiscated and confiscated. As for his family, including those outer chambers and illegitimate children, Daomen will not be implicated, but he will not pity and sympathize with them, and from now on he will not be a lady, son, or miss, and he must be self-reliant.

Finally, there are some ordinary messages. Qi Xuansu glanced at it and found a message released by the Wuxu Palace, offering a reward for the murderer of Wan Xiuwu, a disciple of the Wuxu Palace, as long as it is confirmed in the end, the person who provides the information will be rewarded with 1,000 Taiping money. Whoever catches or kills the murderer will be rewarded with 5,000 peace dollars.

To be honest, Qi Xuansu himself was a little moved.
