389 Jiao Yuancheng, the lord of the house
Early the next morning, Cheng Jun went out very early. Come on,.!
Although a lot of things happened the night before, when I woke up in the morning, it was still calm outside, and there were no waves. Text starter/text starter
When I went out, I saw Mu Ruyi walking out of the door with a smile, and when she saw Cheng Jun, she greeted her: "Daoyou is resting well?"
Cheng Jun said: "TOEFL, everything is fine." ”
Mu Ruyi glanced around and said in a low voice: "Last night, it seems that Daoyou was not quiet there?"
Cheng Jun smiled, he did set a small ban on the wall, isolating the entry and exit and sound inside and outside, with Mu Ruyi's cultivation, he definitely couldn't detect the specific situation, at most he could see that he was guarding against him, so he was a little suspicious, this was a temptation. He said: "I've always been extra nervous when I'm out for the night, so I'm prepared for some small measures." Aren't you Daoyou?"
Mu Ru refused to say anything, although there were still suspicions, but after all, they were just friends, so it was not good to test again, and said: "I don't know if the lord of the house is here, I don't know what kind ......of person he is?" Nothing more.
Cheng Jun said: "I'll know in a while." ”
As if to verify his words, a pair of palace ladies stepped forward and said with a smile: "The lord of the mansion has invited two immortal masters." ”
Mu Ruyi said: "What about Xiao Daoyou, can he go?"
Gong E said: "I was about to call Xiao Immortal Master." ”
Cheng Jun said: "You go and call, we will go first." ”
When I arrived at the front hall, I saw that the wine banquet had been laid down, and the delicacies were ten times more sumptuous than yesterday. The five people in the main seat arrived together, including Long Liulang, Pu Ling, Sanfen Daoren, Zi Zhuan and the sick and crooked Xue Hengjian, all of whom were already here, but the guest seats were all empty.
Cheng Jun smiled and said: "Several Taoist friends have arrived, it seems that we can discuss major matters today." The lord nodded his head one by one, and Zi Lian smiled and said, "The lord of the mansion has arrived, and today will definitely satisfy you." ”
Cheng Jun said: "The day before yesterday, I didn't know what De Ying's predecessors cultivated, and the old man sat in the second place, but today he didn't dare." It's better to take a back seat to third place. He knew that De Ying would definitely not be able to come today, so he deliberately said such a sentence, buried an introduction, and made his own relationship clear.
This is also the proper meaning of the question, Zi Lian smiled: "In this case, Daoist friends can just sit down." ”
Cheng Jun sat in third place, and Mu Ruyi sat last.
After a while, Yao Shengtong was late, didn't greet everyone, and sat down by himself.
A Gong'e walked to Zi Lian's side, bowed her head and said a few words, Zi Lian's face changed sharply, and said, "How can this be?"
Mu Ruyi's heart was secretly moving, she didn't know what was going on, but there was no one on either side of her, no one could ask, so she didn't speak. Pu Ling and several others in the main seat also glanced at each other, and seemed to be a little puzzled. Everything in the Water Mansion is managed by Zi Zhuan, and Gong E is also her hand to move the stars and the sea, others can't intervene, Zi Lian doesn't say it, they are at a loss for a while.
At this moment, I heard the golden bell ring, and someone shouted: "The lord of the house has ascended to the throne!"
There was a puff of smoke and a haze all around. A tall figure paced along.
Mu Ru was secretly dissatisfied with this momentum, and said in his heart: The emperor is in court, pretending to be a ghost.
Here Pu Ling, the three sects and Xue Hengjian stood up together, and arched their hands: "Meet the mansion master." ”
The smoke cleared slightly, and the lord of the mansion also showed his true body, and he saw that his height was similar to that of ordinary people, his skin was white and blue, and his blonde hair and blue eyes were quite demonic. Look at the facial features are also upright, wearing an ochre yellow dragon robe on his body, wearing a crown on his head, and twelve white jade hanging in front of his eyes, like a human emperor who walked down from a painting.
Mu Ruyi was surprised and funny in her heart, she originally looked down on demon beasts, and at this time she slandered: Evil animals are evil animals, and after cultivating a body, she still envies the set of ordinary emperors, putting on such a majestic style, it can be seen that it doesn't make sense, and it makes people laugh.
The master of the house raised his hand slightly, signaling everyone to be exempt, but he didn't say the word "flat", his eyes turned, and said: "What, what about Liulang?
The three-way man stood up and said, "The Lord of the Qiqi Mansion...... Ah Zi took Rokuro out, as if he was going to invite these two absent Taoist friends. He didn't know where Zizhuan went, but when he said it casually, he did tell the truth.
The lord of the house coughed lightly and said, "I should invite some people who understand the rules to come." People who don't know the rules don't have to wait for them. Then he said loudly: "All fellow Daoists have come from afar to save face. It's an honor to have a drink. As he spoke, he raised his glass and toasted him.
No matter what, the few people in the hall raised their glasses and drank them all. As soon as Cheng Jun smelled it, he knew that the wine glass in front of him contained tea, and he knew that it was Zilian's preparation, and he was very thoughtful in order to take care of his monk's precept not to drink.
The lord of the mansion turned his head and smiled at Yao Shengtong and said, "There is Lao Yao Daoyou who has come from afar. ”
Yao Shengtong stood up from the seat and said coldly: "You are Jiao Yuancheng?"
Mu Ruyi said secretly: It turns out that she already knows who the mansion master is, and too, she can naturally get more information if she cultivates like this.
Jiao Yuancheng smiled: "It's down." The words were very polite.
Yao Shengdao: "Okay." Let me ask you face to face, does what you say count?"
Jiao Yuancheng said: "Count, when I master the world, as long as that person is in the Lingshan Realm, there will be no hiding place for him." ”
Yao Shengdao: "Okay, that's it. If you have something to do with me, just open your mouth, and I don't care about the ins and outs, just make a move. "Sit down slowly, close your eyes and say nothing.
Cheng Jun said in his heart: This is a condition to negotiate with Jiao Yuancheng, I don't know what he is capable of, please move this person?
Jiao Yuancheng turned his head to Cheng Jun and said, "This is Master Shenjin from Tianfu." ”
Cheng Jun clasped his hands together and said: "The old man will meet by fate, and he can only obey the orders of the lord of the house." ”
Jiao Yuancheng said: "I don't ask the master for anything, as long as you watch here, and when the result is clear, go to a letter to Tianfu Guizong and prove it to us." ”
Cheng Jun said: "But according to orders." Suddenly, his heart moved, and he said secretly: This person is very ambitious, and he wants to lay out in the Tianfu Buddha Kingdom in advance.
Jiao Yuancheng took one last look at Mu Ruyi and said, "Mu Daoyou, we will cooperate happily in the future." ”
Mu Ruyi saluted and said: "Don't dare, a small state in the north, it's already a blessing to be able to follow the predecessors." But it's just about preserving yourself, not to mention anything else. "No matter how much he looks down on the demon beast in his heart, Mu Ruyi is well aware of his weak strength, and there can be no arrogance.
Jiao Yuancheng said: "For so many years, the Taoist sect has really been treated unfairly in the northern country, and this seat is also saddened. In my opinion, Zixiao Palace has a very good point, and Daoist friends should also account for five points. ”
Mu Ruyi said with a smile: "Three points are already a fluke, and no matter how much I am afraid, we will break our forage." ”
Jiao Yuancheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's easy to say." ”
Cheng Jun said secretly: This woman knows the situation and knows how to advance and retreat, but she is also a character.
Jiao Yuancheng said hello to everyone, then sat down steadily, and said: "Everyone, everyone has come here with a request, we all have goals, we also have power, and we are more capable, what we lack now is an opportunity." Now the opportunity has arrived. Everyone knows what happened in the past two days. Shangqing Palace escaped an important prisoner, this is God help me. ”
Mu Ruyi said: "What do you mean? Could it be that person is our ally?"
Jiao Yuancheng said: "No, he has nothing to do with us, it involves a supreme secret of the Shangqing Palace, it is a puddle of troubled water, even I don't want to get involved." But because of this person, the attention of the Shangqing Palace will be involved, and we will be bought at least a few days. So that we can take it in stride. ”
Mu Ruyi disagreed, and said secretly: What can we do in a few days? We don't know how long we have to do big things, if we can't do it in a few days, then what hope can we have?
Seeing her expression, Jiao Yuancheng had already guessed her thoughts, and said slowly: "These few days are very important. Just a few days ago, the news of the possible fall of the Zhang Palace Master of Zixiao Palace has already caused a stir in the northern country, and it has been transmitted back to Shangqing Palace, Daoist friends should know, right?"
Mu Ruyi said: "I know this. The northern kingdom has long been spread. In the past few years, the stall of the palace master Zhang has been spread very large, and the net that has been cast out will disappear before it can be recovered, but it will be empty inside and outside. There are already signs of unrest. ”
Jiao Yuancheng said: "You only saw the danger of Zixiao Palace, but you didn't expect that the position of the palace master was not born for the surname Zhang. In the past ten days, at least three waves of people have come to the Shangqing Palace to lobby, looking for a backer, and want to be the palace master himself. ”
Mu Ruyi was surprised: "Hands and feet are so fast?"
Jiao Yuancheng said: "It's profitable, isn't it too early?" Palace Master Zhang was able to ascend the throne because his background was too hard, this time these few people in the Shangqing Palace did not have such good connections, nor did they have the strength to be higher than their peers, if they wanted to be the palace master, they had to come up with conditions to exchange." For example, the long-hated real person who visited the third child, the condition is that in addition to obeying his words and plans, he will obey the orders of the third child in everything, and also give the general annual income in the palace. In addition, tens of thousands of catties of spirit stones and forty beauties were also offered. Well, I also worshipped Xuandao's personal disciple Yu Qilin as my godmother. ”
Mu Ruyi snorted and laughed, hurriedly covered his mouth with his sleeve, and said, "This is too ...... Did Lord Xuandao agree?"
Jiao Yuancheng said: "I have been ignoring it, but I have agreed to it in the past few days." Ever since the doppelganger of Xuan Dao fell in the northern kingdom, he had considered this method. Of course, it would not be in the way for Zixiao Palace to change the palace master, but that long-hated old man was not an outstanding figure in Zixiao Palace, and his popularity was not enough at all. If he wants to be the palace master, he not only needs the promise of the third Xuandao child, but also needs strong strength. So he still has to borrow people from Xuandao. ”
Mu Ruyi said: "He wants to ...... How many people do you want to borrow?"
Jiao Yuancheng said lightly: "One." ”
Mu Ruyi exclaimed: "Only need one?"
Jiao Yuancheng said: "This one is earth-shattering, in order to help this old miscellaneous hair, Xuan Dao himself plans to go to the northern kingdom by himself." ”
