Zhang Yuelu knew in her heart that the jade bracelet that revealed her true face was the key to revealing her in sight.

Since the other party has taken the initiative to come to the door, it saves Zhang Yuelu's work. She got up to settle the bill, and walked into the vast wind and snow under the surprised eyes of many people.

For a celestial, the distance of dozens of miles is really not far, and it will be there in a blink of an eye.

This is a small town, has never been a village to protect itself, because there is no need, ordinary thieves do not dare to go to the territory of Zhili to spread wild, there are really people who can come to the emperor's capital, a small town can not turn up any waves, so there is no city wall here, there is no checkpoint, and the surrounding integration. And because it is close to the official road, people come and go, quite lively, the town not only has the "half-hidden door" that Xuanji said, but also taverns, teahouses, inns, various shops and so on.

Zhang Yuelu walked into the town and looked around. Because of the severe wind and snow, there is no half of a figure. She had no choice but to step into a teahouse.

Probably because of the proximity to the imperial capital, the people here are also well-informed, and they immediately recognized the origin of the cloak, and looked at Zhang Yuelu with some awe.

Zhang Yuelu stretched out her hand and beckoned the shopkeeper, first gave him a peace money, and then asked, "Where is the local half-closed door business?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard a woman's voice, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart how could it be a female crown, and then he understood, even if a male Taoist priest wants to do that, he will not look for this kind of half-closed business, what is the difference between men and women. I'm afraid that this female Taoist chief is not here to rectify the atmosphere. He has heard that now the atmosphere in the Imperial Capital City has been rectified in three days, and those large and small courtyards are miserable, this is all the way to a small place like them?

If you show the way, won't it ruin people's business? Everyone is a neighbor, and they don't see anyone who looks down and doesn't look up, and this wicked person can't do it. It's just that the Taoist chief in front of him is not easy to offend, when will the official family have room for negotiation?

Just when the shopkeeper was in a dilemma, Zhang Yuelu saw the shopkeeper's difficulties and explained: "I'm here to find someone, and it has nothing to do with anything else." ”

The shopkeeper relieved himself a little and said, "When I went out to the north, I saw a big poplar tree and turned right and there was an alley, and the innermost one was the one." ”

"Thank you." Zhang Yuelu turned around and went out and walked north, and sure enough, he could see a poplar tree looming in the wind and snow.

At this time, there was a person standing under the poplar tree, holding an umbrella in his hand, and seemed to be waiting for someone.

Zhang Yuelu stopped not far away, raised his wrist, and saw that the jade bracelet on his wrist seemed to come to life again, with brilliance and ripples.

When the man holding the umbrella saw this scene, he sighed softly: "'Purple Jade Claw', it's really been a long time since I saw it, but it's a pity that it's only half." ”

Only then did Zhang Yuelu know that the bracelet was called "Purple Jade Cockroach", and asked, "Are you...... Is it the original owner of the bracelet? ”

The umbrella bearer replied, "Little girl, do you know what this bracelet is for?" ”

Zhang Yuelu shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”

"This bracelet is for self-defense." The umbrella holder's voice fell, and a piece of flying snow that was supposed to fall suddenly changed its trajectory and shot towards Zhang Yuelu like a flying knife.

Almost at the same time, the "purple jade mantle" on Zhang Yuelu's wrist flashed, and a purple light curtain appeared around Zhang Yuelu's body, blocking the flying snow, and then the flying snow melted, and the light curtain disappeared.

Compared with Zhang Yuelu's own "Five Qi Yanluo", the biggest advantage of the light curtain is that it is self-activated, which does not require the owner to be distracted and controlled, and is most suitable for guarding against unexpected sneak attacks. Of course, after all, it is just a treasure, even if the two bracelets are complete, they are only half-immortals, and for the heavenly masters who have reached the immortal stage, it is of little use, and it is more the symbolic meaning of the bracelet.

Zhang Yuelu said softly: "A piece of fist and the heart of the son." ”

The umbrella man smiled: "That's not enough, it's just a thought." ”

Zhang Yuelu asked, "Haven't asked for advice yet?" ”

"We just met, so just call me Xuanji." Umbrella humane.

Zhang Yuelu actually didn't ask this, of course she could guess that the person in front of her was the person who talked to her in the tavern before, what she wanted to ask was whether the other party was the doppelganger of Ziguang Zhenjun, but Xuanji avoided talking about it, and she didn't want to ask deeply.

Zhang Yuelu said: "Your Excellency is much older than me, then I will be honored as a Xuanji senior, and the predecessor should know my intention." ”

"Of course I do." Xuanji said, "Zhang Wushou handed over this bracelet to you, which means that you are responsible for contacting the Purple Light Society, and he can figure it out and let a person from Tiangang Hall contact us." ”

Zhang Yuelu said calmly: "There is no difference, I will not always be in Tiangang Hall, I will be released in the future, and I will be the deputy lord of a certain place at that time." ”

Xuanji said: "The classic promotion route of the Daomen, release to the next level, return to Yujing and then upgrade the next level, so the cycle alternates, and before you know it, you will enter the Golden Gate." ”

Zhang Yuelu was silent.

If she is released, she will naturally not be an ordinary deputy mansion master, and most of them will start from the second seat, which is one of the three legs of an authentic Taoist mansion, and at least a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest will start. After a few more years of training, he returned to Yujing Jiutang as the chief. In the end, most of them will be like the patriarchs of Cihang's lineage, take charge of the Jiangnan Provincial Government, become a real person in charge of the mansion, and enter the Golden Gate. Then he was transferred back to Yujing and became one of the nine real people in charge, from the low-ranking Sanzhi Zhenren to the top-ranked Sanzhi Zhenren. At that time, competition will not be an empty phrase.

Qi Xuansu is also walking on this road, if he can make great contributions to the imperial capital, he is likely to take Qi Jianyuan's position and become the last deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall, which is equivalent to Zhang Yuelu today. Then the same is to be sent to a place to be the second seat, return to Yujing to be the chief, or to be the second seat in Yujing, and the place to be the chief. With such a step-by-step climb, although it is unlikely that the competition will be in charge, it is not difficult to ascend to the position of a real person.

Zhang Yuelu came back to her senses and continued: "Since the seniors already know my intentions, then I won't repeat it, but I don't know what the opinions of the seniors and the Purple Light Society are. ”

"The Purple Light Society has no opinion, but personally, I'm very interested in you." Xuanji smiled and groaned.

"Me?" Zhang Yuelu was stunned for a moment, and then her face sank, "Could it be that my predecessors want me to join the Purple Light Society?" ”

Xuanji said: "I do have this idea, but I also know that how can a person who wants to be a big master of the sect look down on the Purple Light Society?" I just want to do a test to see if the person who will contact us on behalf of the Zhang family in the future is actually difficult to live up to under the fame? Or is it a man of fame? ”

Zhang Yuelu frowned and did not give an immediate reply.

Xuanji continued: "Take 10,000 steps back, if one day, our Purple Light Society decides to join the Sect of Cheng, then most of the people in charge of matchmaking in the middle are you, whether you can take on the big responsibility is also closely related to our Purple Light Society." Of course, we hope that you can become the Eighth Generation Great Palm Sect, just as the 'Heavenly Court' hopes that the Li family will be the Great Palm Sect, and the Qingping Society hopes that the Great Palm Sect will come from the Quanzhen Dao, but hearing is false and seeing is believing, I hope you can understand. ”

Zhang Yuelu asked, "How are you going to test it?" ”

"The so-called pattern, strategy, city, vision, heart, and wrist, these things can not be seen in a moment and a half, and it is difficult to quantify and assess them, as for the realm cultivation, you are now a celestial in the stage of leisure, and you are not a child who has just been enlightened, and there is nothing to measure." The five fingers of Xuanji's left hand and the five fingers of her right hand faced each other, and she made a gesture similar to a diamond in the lower abdomen, allowing the oil-paper umbrella to hang in the air on its own, continuing to shelter from the wind and snow.

Zhang Yuelu asked directly: "What do you want?" ”

Xuanji smiled and said, "We might as well play a game." ”

"Games?" Zhang Yuelu asked.

Xuanji smiled: "Yes, game." If you win, then the Ziguang Society will recognize Zhang Wushou's decision. If you lose, then sorry, you have to pay a small price. ”

Zhang Yuelu's face became solemn: "So...... At what cost? ”

Xuanji seemed to be able to see what Zhang Yuelu was thinking: "We are not men, of course we don't have any thoughts about your body." As I just said, we just want you to join the Purple Light Society and become the daughter of Niangniang, and also one of the seven star masters of the Purple Light Society, that's all. You see, for many people, this is not a punishment, but a great gift. It's just that for a young master who is expected to become a great master, this is indeed a small punishment. ”

Zhang Yuelu fell silent again.

There was no doubt that Xuanji's realm cultivation was far superior to her, so she didn't dare to say that she was sure of victory. Giving her access to and contacting the Secret Society and joining the Secret Society are two completely different concepts. If she joins the secret association and doesn't talk about her own ambitions, she will also live up to the high hopes placed on her master Cihang Zhenren.

Xuanji smiled: "I'll give you a little more chips." If you want to be a great master, but you are suffering from a shallow foundation, for you, the Purple Light Society is a great help, just as the Qingping Society is to the Quanzhen Dao, and the 'Heavenly Court' is to the Taiping Dao. Who can control this part of the force, even if he can't make face, he can still be inside. Furthermore, after all, you are young, your realm cultivation is limited, and you have just entered the Celestial Beings of the Leisurely Stage, and there is still a considerable distance from the Celestials of the Immeasurable Stage, although I can't let you immediately enter the Immeasurable Stage, but I can send you a small opportunity to create, so that you can go faster on the road in the future. ”

Xuanji paused: "Of course, the premise is that you win this game." If you can't even win with me, then what's the big coach? It's better to die as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Yuelu looked at Xuanji: "Who are you?" ”

Xuanji smiled and said: "I am Madame's attendant, I am the messenger of the true monarch, I am the incarnation of Niangniang in the world, you can call me Xuanji Star Lord." ”

Zhang Yuelu said slowly: "I accept this game. ”

"Good." Xuanji clapped her palms, "Without further ado, we'll start right away." ”

After that, Xuanji turned around and left: "But now is the time to prepare, and it is also your last chance to regret it, if you think you are ready, go to the house in the deepest part of the alley to find me." Of course, you can turn around and leave the place as if nothing had happened. ”
