Chapter Fifty-Eight: Misdemeanor

When Zhang Kucheng heard this, the doubts in his heart did not decrease, but increased.

It is not uncommon for Qi Xuansu to have an intersection with the Heavenly Master, it must be through Zhang Yuelu's path. But it is precisely because it is Zhang Yuelu's way that Zhang Kuancheng is strange-if you don't go to Zhang Yuelu, how did you find me? Don't say hello in advance, follow the light car, hide people's eyes and ears, or run thousands of miles from Borneo to Jinling Mansion, in terms of distance, it is also closer to Lingnan Province. In terms of relationship, the two are not bad friends, but they are only passable on face, far from being firm allies.

Zhang Kucheng thought so in his heart, but said on his lips: "This little thing, you just say hello to Xiao Tang, where is it worth your personal trip."

In fact, Qi Xuansu didn't think about it so much at all, at the beginning, he didn't think about seeing the Heavenly Master immediately, but pinned his hopes on Qi Niang, and never thought that Qi Niang had no breakthrough here, so he had to pin his hopes on the Heavenly Master.

Don't look at Qi Xuansu on the surface he doesn't care much, he is very calm, but in his heart he is not like this, when he was in Dabao'en Temple, he was already a little unprepared, and he was fighting with two irrelevant people for no reason, which can be seen. So he didn't think about it at all, and based on the principle of proximity, he directly found Zhang Kucheng.

It's just that Qi Xuansu couldn't say that, so he had to say, "How can I have such a big face, so I have to ask my uncle for help."

These words are not only a praising of Zhang Kucheng, but the implication is that only you, the future head of the Zhang family, have such a big face, just say hello, and it is also difficult for Zhang Kucheng to refuse, he can't say that I don't have such a big face, the heavenly master doesn't give me face at all, and it is difficult for me to do it.

Zhang Kucheng is very useful, he is in this position, and there must be many people around him who are touting, but how can those people be compared to Qi Xuansu? It's not about any skills or grasping people's hearts, it's just the same thing, and the effect of people of different status is completely different. Today's Qi Xuansu is not to say that he is on an equal footing with Zhang Kuancheng, at least he does not have to grovel, and he is relatively equal.

If Qi Xuansu had become a big master one day, the weight of this sentence would be different, it would be simply bragging capital.

Don't think that you won't brag when you reach the level of this real person, they are all human beings, and there will be no less vanity.

Zhang Kucheng already had the heart to help with this, but he didn't get carried away yet, and asked again: "Even if you don't want to trouble Xiao Tang, Qingxiao is participating in the discussion in Yujing, but you don't have to go to Jinling Mansion in person, today's means of communication are so developed, just say it in the air, I will deliberately embarrass you?"

Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't hide it, in addition to visiting my uncle in Jinling Mansion this time, I also have to meet my stepmother, because it is a private matter, so I didn't say hello in advance, and I am the only one."

"Qi Niang?" Zhang was stunned, of course he knew Qi Niang, he and Qi Niang, as well as Donghua Zhenren, Cihang Zhenren, Qingwei Zhenren and others, are all disciples of the seventh generation, and if they are counted carefully, maybe they are still classmates of the Vientiane Dao Palace - Qi Niang is an exception, she stopped at the Sipin Sacrifice Wine Taoist, and did not have the opportunity to participate in the study of the Erpin Taiyi Taoist.

Zhang Jicheng was a little surprised: "Qi Niang is also in Jinling Mansion? I didn't know."

"Not strange." Qi Xuansu smiled, "She is like this, I don't know anything about when she will go to Borneo and when she will leave Borneo."

Zhang Kucheng can be regarded as having solved his doubts, no longer asking the bottom of the matter, and asking Qi Xuansu to wait a while, he went to contact the Heavenly Master.

This little thing, of course, is not worth Zhang Kucheng's personal trip back to the Dazhen Mansion, as the nominal second person of the Zhang family, Zhang Kucheng has a channel to directly contact the Heavenly Master.

Soon, Zhang Jicheng came back, but his expression was a little strange: "The Heavenly Master is not in Yunjin Mountain, it is said that he has gone below."

This below generally refers to the state capitals, and to put it bluntly, it is to go down to inspect. The Taoist priests at all levels below must be like facing a great enemy, deal with it carefully, and receive it seriously. Qi Xuansu has also experienced that when he was in Fenglu Prefecture, Qingwei Zhenren inspected all parties, and the people under him tossed a lot, cleaned up, warned all the local snakes to keep to themselves in the recent past, and engaged in some face-saving projects.

When the Heavenly Master went down to inspect, it may not be a big fanfare, it is likely to be light and simple, engaging in a set of micro-service private visits, not greeting in advance, and dressing up

Ordinary old man, walk around, take a look, and get to know the real situation. In this case, no one can find a Celestial Master.

Qi Xuansu's first reaction was that the Heavenly Master did it on purpose.

It is not difficult to deduce from the time when he borrowed the "Hidden Lantern" when he knew the "truth", but the Celestial Master went to inspect below at this time, and it is difficult to say that it was not intentional.

However, it can't be said that the Heavenly Master is avoiding Qi Xuansu, and he doesn't dare to see Qi Xuansu, what kind of character is Qi Xuansu, so as not to let the Heavenly Master avoid it. Maybe the Heavenly Master felt that the time was not right, and he didn't want to directly turn Qi Xuansu away, so he thought about it more, so he simply used such a tactful way to avoid Qi Xuansu.

Zhang Kucheng said: "But the Heavenly Master also deliberately explained before leaving, 'There is no need to return the Tibetan lamp in a hurry, although some of the miracles are used once in Yijiazi, but going back to the past can still be used normally, just go back to the local atmosphere, and it is also very interesting to look at the past when you are fine."

As a real person, Zhang Kucheng certainly knew what the Heavenly Master's "Returning to Tibetan Lamp" was for, but he didn't understand what Qi Xuansu was doing with the "Returning Hidden Lantern", and Qi Xuansu couldn't use it. And the words of the Heavenly Master are also quite interesting, there is no need to return them, the past things are very interesting, these words are a little frivolous, not like they came from the mouth of the Heavenly Master, but Qi Xuansu was a little distracted.

Qi Xuansu stood up, thanked Zhang Kucheng, and was about to leave.

Zhang Kucheng hesitated a few times, but still asked, "Tianyuan, is there something?"

Qi Xuansu took a deep breath: "It's okay, it's not a big deal."

Speaking of which, Zhang Kuancheng is not easy to ask deeply, after all, it is taboo to talk about it deeply, and he and Qi Xuansu have not yet reached that point.

Qi Xuansu left Jinling Mansion directly, did not take a flying boat, and went to Kunlun Yujing alone.

Encountering this kind of major event that almost negates the first half of his life, how can Qi Xuansu be completely indifferent, he doesn't care when he faces Qi Niang, he can't say that it's all pretending, but if he really doesn't care at all, it's self-deception.

In fact, Qi Niang also said: Did you take the wrong medicine today?

At this time, the first signs have already been seen.

Qi Xuansu's performance is like that of most men, at the beginning, he was quite calm and strong, he could talk and laugh, and it seemed that there was nothing serious, but as time went by, the "stamina" gradually came up, and he was a little uncontrollable.

On the other side, Zhang Yuelu received an unexpected telepathy conversation during the break of the deliberations - Qi Niang.

In Borneo, the two left each other's contact information, but they never used it.

Qi Niang took the initiative to contact Zhang Yuelu for the first time, which gave Zhang Yuelu a bit of a bad premonition.

However, Zhang Yuelu still connected to the conversation.

Qi Niang didn't greet politely, and went straight to the point: "The state of Tianyuan is not quite right."

Zhang Yuelu was stunned: "Tianyuan is in retreat."

"He's out of the country, and we've just met." Qi Niang didn't go around in circles with Zhang Yuelu, and said directly, "When we talked, I could see that he was very wrong."

Zhang Yuelu was even more surprised: "He's out of the customs? He didn't contact me, and ...... What's wrong with him? Is it something wrong with cultivation?"

"It has nothing to do with cultivation, it's his emotions." Qi Niang said, "He knew something and hit him hard."

Zhang Yuelu immediately knew what the situation was, because Qi Xuansu didn't hide the truth from her at all about going to Lingshan Cave Heaven to explore the truth, and she borrowed the "Hidden Lantern". Now it seems that Qi Xuansu should have found the truth, at least part of the truth, and this part of the truth hit him hard.

In Zhang Yuelu's view, Qi Xuansu is not a person with great mood swings, especially in recent years, Qi Xuansu has become more and more sophisticated, it can also be said to be mature, and the truth that can make him hit hard or even become wrong, its content can be imagined, and it must subvert many of his inherent cognitions.

Zhang Yuelu didn't ask what these so-called truths were, nor did she ask what the two talked about, and asked directly, "Where are the others?"

"I guess I went to Yujing, Requiem." Qi Niang still understands Qi Xuansu and grasps it accurately.

Zhang Yuelu asked again, "Is it his master involved?"

Qi Niang nodded: "It also involves me, so there are some things that I really can't say, so you should go and persuade him."

Once upon a time, the thing that Zhang Yuelu was very distressed about was that the mother-son relationship between Qi Xuansu and Qi Niang was too good, the needle could not be inserted, the water could not be splashed, and it became difficult for her to change Qi Xuansu. But now listening to the meaning of these words, the mother and son are obviously estranged, but Zhang Yuelu did not have the slightest schadenfreude at this time, only deep worry.

It also involves Qi Niang, so it won't be the worst case.

Zhang Yuelu didn't want to ask more, and after ending the conversation, she immediately contacted Qi Xuansu, but Qi Xuansu didn't answer for a long time.

Zhang Yuelu contacted Lin Yuanmiao again, and only then did she confirm that Qi Xuansu had been out of the customs.

Zhang Yuelu, who had never been angry with Lin Yuanmiao, was furious: "Old Lin, what's the matter with you? Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"

Lin Yuanmiao replied, "It's Tianyuan who won't let me tell others."

Zhang Yuelu said, "Am I someone else? You don't see that something is wrong with him? Or is it up to him to do it?"

Lin Yuanmiao was silent for a moment and said, "He looked normal at the time, no different from usual."

Zhang Yuelu didn't want to say anything more, ended the call, and immediately rushed to the Requiem Division with the heart, but the discussion was not over, so she could only continue to participate in the discussion patiently.

Lin Yuanmiao was on the way back to Lingnan Province with Xiao Yin at this time, Xiao Yin didn't know what was going on, and when he saw Lin Yuanmiao being reprimanded, he gloated: "Old Lin, have you been scolded? You're here today!"
