Chapter 57: Can't Say

"How do you know I didn't ask Qi Jiaozheng?" Qi Xuansu raised his hand to disperse the smoke.

Qi Niang held her right elbow with her left hand and held the cigarette stick flat with her right hand: "When did it happen? How did I not know?"

Qi Xuansu said, "Do you remember how I got a grudge against Wang Jiaohe and Wang Danqing's father and son? It was that time, when Qi Jiaozheng was there, that I asked him about it."

"What did Sect Qi say?" Qi Niang asked.

Qi Xuansu said: "Qi Jiaozheng said that he didn't know Qi Haoran, this is obviously lying, even Qi Jianyuan, who is already dead, knows it, how could he, the head of the Qi family, not know? Now it seems that Qi Jiaozheng's denial shows that my master is extraordinary, and there is a lot of article in it."

Qi Niang sighed, "There is an article, what article?"

Qi Xuansu said, "Let's go through it from the beginning, I've been thinking, why can't you save my master? With your realm cultivation, it is prepared in advance, which makes no sense, unless you don't want to save it. But I suddenly realized that it was not, I had never seen Master die with my own eyes, and the last time I saw Master was when he yelled at me to run, and then I was chased by the inn killer, and then I passed out. After that, you told me, you said that my master died, and you also helped take care of the aftermath and buried my master in the Requiem cemetery in Yujing."

"Under that circumstance at that time, I took it for granted, and I knew very well that Master was a mediocre cultivator, and it was impossible for him to survive the siege, so I had no reason not to believe it. But the premise of all this is that if the master is really the master I know, Qi Niang, you are really just passing by."

"But now it seems that Qi Niang, you are not passing by, everything is under your control. And my master, is he still the four-grade sacrificial wine Taoist in my knowledge? Speaking of which, Qi Niang, you are just a four-grade sacrificial wine Taoist."

"What if it's just a play? After I pass out, I finish the work, scatter what should be scattered, go away when it should go, and you will clean up the mess."

Qi Niang sighed: "Very good imagination, it's a pity that you don't write a script."

Qi Xuansu said, "Qi Niang, I'm not a smart person, but I've never been stupid."

"I admit it." Qi Niang said, "You are indeed not stupid, change to a stupid person, you are still in the dark at this time, you will really lose your mother in the sky, and then rely on this mother to kill all directions and go to the peak of the Daomen."

Qi Xuansu said softly: "I remember a sentence from a Westerner very deeply, all the gifts in fate have already been secretly marked with prices. This price can be paid in advance by the ancestors, or it may be borne by themselves."

Qi Niang looked at Qi Xuansu again: "You're not angry at all?"

Qi Xuansu asked rhetorically, "Why should I be angry?"

"Because I lied to you, shouldn't you be angry, hopeless, and heartbroken?" Qi Niang said like a few family treasures, "Then she didn't recognize me as a godmother, but she couldn't let go of her past feelings, so she twisted her head there, just like ...... The kind of cliché that doesn't recognize your father because he has failed his mother."

Qi Xuansu said: "I never screw my jaw, what it should be is what it is, in fact, you didn't lie to me, you just concealed part of the truth. As for me, I'm not here to go through old accounts and break off, there is no love that can't let go of the past, I don't want to let go at all, why can't I let go? I just want to know the truth and prepare for future debt collectors. Taking a step back, no matter how much you say, it's false, and it's true that you helped me get to where I am today, even if you deceive me, I don't know how many people can't ask for this kind of deception."

Qi Niang laughed: "I like you like this, never mother-in-law."

Qi Xuansu grabbed Qi Niang's sleeve with his hand and said with a smile, "So, my good Qi Niang, don't go around in circles with me."

Qi Niang pulled back her sleeve: "What a big person, you are still coquettish, giving me goosebumps, you are shameless, I still feel numb."

Qi Xuansu wiped his hand, smoothed out his entire face, had no facial features, and said in his abdominal cavity: "What do you want your face for?"

Qi Niang said, "Tian Yuan, do you remember that we signed an improved 'Heart Demon Contract' in the Spirit Mountain Cave Heaven?"

"Yes." Qi Xuansu directly returned to his original appearance.

Qi Niang said: "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I signed a 'heart demon contract' with others, I really can't say it. Once you say it, you won't see me."

"Understood." Qi Xuansu nodded, "Earth Master? That's the price the Earth Master made you pay?"

Qi Niang shook her head and said, "It's not a land master. I can't say who it is, but that's one of the terms of the contract."

Qi Xuansu's brows, which had just stretched a little, furrowed again.

Could he have been wrong in his guess? Didn't the earth master point out Qi Niang? Didn't the earth master plan all this?

Then we have entered a dead end again.

The only thing that is certain is that he is still a pawn. In the past, he was a pawn who could only move forward and could not retreat, but now it is different, although he is still a pawn, he is a pawn who crosses the river, a "small car".

Who is so big? Can you only ask the Heavenly Master?

Qi Xuansu was silent for a long time, and let out a long breath of turbidity: "Then that's it, let's talk next time."

"That's it?" Qi Niang was a little surprised.

Qi Xuansu said, "I can't really drive you to a dead end, can I, mother."

Qi Niang smiled, wanting to say something, but finally waved her hand: "Get out."

"Gone." Qi Xuansu jumped from the window again, without dragging the mud and water at all.

Qi Niang held the cigarette stick in her mouth, supported the window edge with both hands, and watched Qi Xuansu leave.

Qi Xuansu seemed to have eyes behind his back, knowing that Qi Niang was watching him, although he didn't turn around, he still waved his hand.

In this way, Qi Xuansu crossed the Perfume River again, and the glazed pagoda behind him became farther and farther away.

When Qi Xuansu passed by the former temple, he saw a middle-aged official looking up at the Buddha, and there were many followers around.

Qi Xuansu stopped and looked at the Big Buddha.

At this moment, Qi Xuansu was thinking about Wu Luo, Si Ming Zhenjun, and Buddha Lord behind Chen Shuhua.

The more I knew, the more doubts I became.

The middle-aged official turned his head to look at Qi Xuansu: "I don't know what Xiaoyou feels about the Buddha?"

Qi Xuansu came back to his senses, but he spoke without any emotion: "It's just a clay puppet, what is there to understand?"

The middle-aged man was furious, but his qi cultivation kung fu was not bad, and he suppressed most of his anger: "Vulgar."

Qi Xuansu smiled: "You people, you just like to play tricks, look at a Buddha statue, look at a mountain view, look at a cloud, and then realize the Great Dao? What do you see the Buddha seeing?"

The middle-aged man was still talking, and his friend who came with him played a round and said, "Forget it, what are you competing with a child?"

This is in the past, Qi Xuansu can be regarded as moody, quite a city, and will never show his emotions in front of these irrelevant people, and even his emotions are designed, such as anger, it may not be that he is really angry, but just to show his attitude. It's just that today's Qi Xuansu couldn't grasp his emotions a little, and a series of changes made him ruined.

"Summer insects can't talk about ice, what do you know!" Qi Xuansu's disdain was overflowing, and he was about to turn around and leave.

"Bold!" An entourage finally couldn't stand it anymore.

Qi Xuansu just glanced at this entourage, and then let this entourage collapse directly to the ground, which was not a substantial injury, as if he saw a natural enemy, and his legs were so frightened that he couldn't move at all.

The true body of the human immortal is essentially a great witch and a desolate beast, usually the qi and blood are almost dead and silent, but after it begins to flow, the power of the wilderness is fully displayed, and ordinary people naturally can't resist it.

The two middle-aged people were Confucianists, and although they did not collapse to the ground, they also felt that it was difficult to breathe.

Fortunately, Qi Xuansu quickly realized his gaffe and took a deep breath, not only to calm his mind, but also to put away the power of the wilderness: "Sorry, I'm sorry to disturb."

Qi Xuansu hurriedly left the Great Bao'en Temple, leaving only two middle-aged people who looked at each other.

He did not immediately go to Yunjin Mountain in Shangqing Mansion, but first went to visit the person who served as the head of Jinling Mansion

People's Zhang Yucheng. As for why he didn't find Zhang Yuelu, it was mainly the principle of proximity, he already knew before the retreat that the nine-hall joint meeting would be held soon, and it would take several days, and Zhang Yuelu might still be in Yujing. And if he wants to cut the queue and quickly see the Heavenly Master, there must always be someone of sufficient weight to come forward, except for Zhang Yuelu, it is Zhang Yuecheng.

In terms of family relationship, Zhang Yucheng is Zhang Yuelu's uncle, although the blood relationship is relatively far away, but after all, he is the next generation of the Zhang family, and he is also the representative of the Zhang family, many things can't bypass him, so Qi Xuansu still has some contact with him, and he can be considered passable on weekdays.

Qi Xuansu went straight to Jiangnan Provincial Mansion, not giving others the opportunity to make things difficult for him, and he was not in the mood to play the drama of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, so he directly took out the prayer and the urn: "Borneo Qi Xuansu visited the lord of Zhang's mansion, and he still wanted to pass through."

The person in charge of the reception immediately reported it layer by layer, not to mention that Qi Xuansu is the youngest second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, and he is also the chief of the first house, the key is the son-in-law of the Zhang family, ordinary people don't know the specific situation of the Zhang family's infighting, only know that the heavenly master likes Zhang Cixi very much, and treats it as a granddaughter, the lord of the Zhang Mansion also reconciled with Zhang Cixi, the eldest lady and Zhang Cixi are like sisters, Qi Zhenren is a real relative, so naturally he does not dare to slack off.

When Zhang Jicheng learned that Qi Xuansu was visiting, he was greatly surprised.

Qi Xuansu didn't go to the Nine Halls Joint Meeting, he knew because Qi Xuansu had been in retreat recently. But when did Qi Xuansu get out of the customs? And quietly ran to Jinling Mansion to see him, could it be that something big happened?

For a while, Zhang Jicheng couldn't figure it out, so he had to go to greet Qi Xuansu first.

After the two met, they were slightly polite, Qi Xuansu just glanced left and right, Zhang Kucheng understood, and retreated, leaving only two people.

Zhang Kucheng considered his words a little and asked, "Tianyuan, what's wrong?"

Qi Xuansu said: "I don't know where to start, a few days ago, I borrowed an immortal object from the Heavenly Master, and now I want to return it to the Heavenly Master as soon as possible, but the Heavenly Master is very busy, and I don't know when the Heavenly Master will be free, so I want to ask my uncle to help inquire."
