When Su Hongshan saw this lampstand, his face showed curiosity, looked at it, and said:

"Is this a lampstand?"

Ouyang Shenyi smiled and said, "Yes, it is indeed a lampstand." But it also has another name, called 'KitKat Eight-petal Lotus'. ”

"Oh, that's what happened." Su Hongshan looked at the shape of this lampstand and echoed casually.

When Ouyang Shenyi heard him say this, he carefully looked at Su Hongshan's handle again, his expression changed three times, and finally calmed down. Su Hongshan didn't know that he had already taken a ride through the Ghost Gate.

This Ouyang Shenyi has a lot of origins. He is the great apprentice of the Liantai Sect and a master of the Transformation Period. In this Xuanjie Huaxia territory, there are 27 main gates and 42 partial gates. The Ceres Sect near Mulin Village, and the Haiqing Sect of Su Hongshan's mother, Murong Shangqing, are all among the twenty-seven main gates. These forty-two partial sects, in fact, also boast of being the main door, but at the beginning of the establishment of the Han Dynasty, these sects were either remnants of the previous dynasty, or disobeyed orthodoxy, and some were fundamentally crooked...... In short, they were all exterminated by the Han Dynasty in the general altar of China. And now that there are many mountains in China and local divisions, these exiled side gates have sneaked back to China, waiting for an opportunity to restore orthodoxy.

Ouyang Shenyi's Lotus Sect is one of the forty-two partial sects. In the early years, he was also a thief wanted by the Han Dynasty. This time I sneaked back to Huaxia because of the funding of the Western White Eagle Country to investigate the spiritual veins of Huaxia.

He gave Su Hongshan such a magic weapon, which was indeed called "KitKat Eight-petal Lotus". It itself is a metal lampstand in the shape of lotus petals, with a total of eight petals, four of which are pointed forward, and the other four are edged around. The overall weight is full, can be stabbed and smashed, it is a unique blade, but the use method is generally born from the method of the sword. There are 36 copper lotus seeds inside, which are made out as hidden weapons, which are difficult to prevent; There is also clear oil boiled in the wick, which is ignited by the fire technique, which can emit poisonous incense and kill the enemy.

Because he was in China in the early years, under the banner of reviving the Liantai Sect, he did some big cases; Moreover, this magic weapon of his is also quite special, so it has a good reputation in the Huaxia cultivation world. He has a bandit name, called "Little Buddha".

Ouyang Shenyi just told Su Hongshan his real name and surname, and showed his magic weapon eight-petal lotus, which was already murderous. He originally planned to sacrifice the eight-petal lotus by himself, but if the color of Su Hongshan's face changed, he would immediately ask for his life with a copper lotus seed. Unexpectedly, Su Hongshan was a fledgling "amateur" cultivator, and he didn't understand these things at all. When I saw this eight-petal lotus, I didn't react, I really took this as a copper bump.

Seeing that Su Hongshan was stunned, Ouyang Shenyi was secretly happy in his heart. After thinking about it, it is better to have a good relationship with this kid, and in the future, he will also be a capable assistant of the sect in Youzhou. Thinking of this, Ouyang Shenyi put away the eight-petal lotus, and said to Su Hongshan:

"Brother, you are a person of fate. The Buddha talks about the word 'bonding' the most. You see......"

"I'm sorry, I'm not religious." Su Hongshan said, "Since you also gave me the bracelet, I'll leave." Bye. ”

As he spoke, Su Hongshan stood up, tightened his bracelet, took a big step with a steel whip, and walked out of the yurt room directly, leaving Ouyang Shenyi in it. Ouyang Shenyi had a dark anger in his heart: What kind of person is this, it seems that he is also an ordinary man. Let's wait for the day after tomorrow when we succeed in our actions, restore the Buddha kingdom on earth, and then turn this foolish person again.

Not to mention that Ouyang Shenyi was angry in the yurt, just Su Hongshan. Su Hongshan walked out of the yurt, and then went in the direction of Plum Blossom Manor, and said in his heart: Today is really unlucky, and when I came up, I met a god stick who pretended to be a ghost. I dusted off my clothes, but the smell of the yurt still lingered. Su Hongshan beat his spirits, ran forward again, and came to the real bazaar after a while.

The market near Mulin Village is densely populated, and there are more than 100 sellers. Su Hongshan walked through the bazaar, and saw that he had arrived at a forest on the edge of the bazaar. The first and second vendors squatted in the shade of the forest and smoked, and there were also market collectors pulling carts on the side to count the things they bought. Su Hongshan went into the woods, cut out a few paths inside, and paved them well with pebbles. Further along a cobblestone path, the woods gradually opened up, and a large flat clearing appeared. Su Hongshank came to the cut and saw a stone archway standing, with four words written:

Calm and long.

After the stone archway, you can see a large manor in the distance, surrounded by iron railings. The gate of the manor is open, and on the left and on the right is a mermaid stone lion. The top of the gate reads in Western:

Plum Blossom Manor.

This is the Plum Blossom Manor near Mulin Village. The owner's surname is Shui, and it is said that he is also a cultivator. There is a club in the manor, but this is not Su Hongshan's purpose: if you really want to enter the manor to play, it is not far from eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling; His purpose was outside the estate.

Outside the Plum Blossom Manor is a large open space with a Western fountain in the middle. Around this fountain, there are four circles, that is, rings. In the ring, there are competitions almost every day, of course, there are many ordinary wrestlers, and there are few real cultivators who run on such a big rural stage———— at least, in Su Hongshan's impression.

When Su Hongshan came to the vicinity of the ring, he was surprised to find that this place had been rebuilt with a modern atmosphere. The original hardwood plum blossom circle has been transformed into a pure white marble platform, pulled by cow tendons, and surrounded by four large searchlights. The four platforms were empty, and only the northwest corner seemed to have been wrapped, with huge banners and many people watching. Su Hongshan walked over with a steel whip and found that many people in the audience were also young people like herself, all of whom were carrying long burdens wrapped in blades, and they were by no means ordinary spectators.

Su Hongshank came closer and saw the longest banner under the ring, which read:

The disciples of the Ceres Sect swear to defend the sect to the death!

Su Hongshan looked around, they were all cultivators in light orange clothes, and the words "Ceres is immortal" were printed on them. It seems that this is the disciples of the Ceres God Sect. Looking at the ring, there are round benches for rest in each corner. There were four particularly conspicuous disciples of the Ceres Sect, leaning across the edge of the ring, as if they were waiting for someone; The stool at the opposite corner of the ring was empty, and it was obvious that the man had not yet arrived.

A disciple of the Ceres Sect was holding a loudspeaker and was preaching loudly. Su Hongshan didn't want to listen carefully, just because he saw that in addition to the banners of these large and small student organizations of the Ceres God Sect, there were also huge photos of the two of them on the side. One of them, Su Hongshan, didn't know; But the appearance of another person, Su Hongshan, is very familiar: Isn't this his teacher Liao Pu?

When I got closer, Liao Pu's big photo was painted with a big cross with red paint, and a line of eye-catching large characters was written:

Recall the Cabinet of Ministers of the University of Slevup!

Su Hongshan was taken aback, he only thought that the teacher was going to serve as a staff adviser to the Han Imperial Court, but he didn't expect that he was directly promoted to the status of a cabinet scholar.

These days, I have been focusing on cultivation and not caring much about current affairs. It's just that when I was buying wine a few days ago, I heard some idlers talking that General Guo dissolved the cabinet, replaced all the previous seven scholars, and reorganized the cabinet according to his own wishes. Su Hongshan didn't pay attention to it at the time, and only thought that it was just a means for General Guo to further control the imperial court. Who knew that his teacher Liao Pu turned out to be one of the new ministers.

Thinking of this, Su Hongshan looked at another photo, and also drew a cross, writing:

Recall the first assistant of the cabinet Zhou Xiaoli!

Zhou Xiaoli, isn't this my father's teacher and my own master? He turned out to be the head of the new cabinet. Su Hongshan thought about it carefully, this week's Xiaoli, Liao Pu...... Two of the four great sword immortals actually joined General Guo Ziwei's newly formed cabinet, and General Guo was really a person who did great things.

However, if they think so, these young disciples of the Ceres God Sect must not think so.

Su Hongshan was still looking east and west, and suddenly a disciple of the Ceres Sect wearing orange clothes came to him. This is a boy who looks slightly younger than his age, and when he saw Su Hongshan, he greeted him in a friendly manner and asked:

"May I ask if you are here to support our Ceres Sect's loose cultivator friend?"

Casual practice? Su Hongshan knew the meaning of this title. The so-called loose cultivation refers to cultivators who are not within the major sects in this state, and they are usually sent out by some small sects at the county and county level. In fact, I might as well be a casual cultivator———— if I insist on saying it, I am considered a "family scholar". However, out of politeness, Su Hongshan still nodded and said:

"I'm just passing by, and I don't quite understand what's going on. You are? ”

The disciple said diligently:

"I'm Tang Ji, an outer disciple of the Ceres Sect."

Tang Ji eagerly came to Su Hongshan's side and said:

"We have gathered all the fellow Daoists of the Youzhou Cultivation Realm here today for a big event. This important matter is related to the life and death of all the Xiuzhen sects in my Great Youzhou...... It would be even better if you could help us too. ”

Su Hongshan was puzzled and asked:

"What's the matter?"

Tong Ji replied:

"I'll tell you more about the details after I go to our camp. There are also nice gifts at the camp, you can come with me to get one first. ”

Su Hongshan was very curious about what these Ceres Sect disciples were going to do, so he readily agreed. Tom led him towards a crowded area. As soon as he followed, Su Hongshan was surprised: not far from the ring, five or six pergolas were erected, all with orange-yellow canvas roofs, banners pulled next to them, and slogans and cardboard standing around them. There is also a large cardboard box with soda drinks, stacked in boxes and boxes on the side. There are foreign languages on it, and this is still imported.

Is this Nima's here for a spring outing?

Tang Ji led Su Hongshank to a pergola. There were a few white plastic stools and a flat table inside, and some orange-clothed Ceres Sect disciples sat around. Tang Ji and a female disciple gave an order, and the female disciple took out an orange paper bag from the back and handed it to Su Hongshan.

Su Hongshan took it and took a look at it: there were a few flyers inside, as well as a bottle of drink and a pack of snacks.

"Thank you." Su Hongshan said, "So, what are so many friends from the Cultivation Realm here to do today?" ”

Tang Ji's face was serious, and he said to Su Hongshan very seriously:

"Friend, our Ceres Sect has been the highest sect in the Youzhou Cultivation Realm for hundreds of years. But all this may soon cease to exist. ”

"Huh?"

Su Hongshan was taken aback when he heard this. What is this amazing story?

Tongy continues:

"Just a few days ago, Guo Thief removed the cabinet and replaced all the cabinet scholars with his cronies. Of these, there is only one Liao Pu who is said to have lived in seclusion for decades and has never known him. Hmph, it is said that he is still the head of the four great sword immortals, and he has not dared to show his head for so many years, and I think it is also in vain. We thought that Guo Thief wanted to save some face for the cultivators in the world, but we didn't expect that this old thing surnamed Liao was even more hateful than those cronies before Guo Thief! ”

When Su Hongshan heard Tang Ji call General Guo Ziwei "Guo thief", it didn't matter, the uncle in his village who was chatting about the world also had such a mouth; But he actually insulted his teacher Liao Pu, which made Su Hongshan very unhappy. But instead of having an immediate seizure, he continued to ask:

"What did Liop do?"

Tang Ji said in a deep voice:

"This Liao Pu gave Guo Thief an idea, saying that he would send 'inspectors' from the General's Mansion to various Xiuzhen sects. In the name of beauty, supervising and inspecting the practice of the sect, hehe, in fact, he made the idea, which of us is not clear? This is the first step to deprive our sect of its autonomy! ”

Su Hongshan wondered, "What is 'Inspector'?" ”

Tang Ji smiled and said, "This is the official name of Liao Pu and Zhou Xiaoli themselves, and they are the officials who came to spy on our sect. In fact, they are all vulgar soldiers in the general's mansion, although they can do a little bit of superficial cultivation, how can they compare with our Cereals Sect, a vast and profound century-old sect with cultural heritage behind them? is also an inspector, and he will really put gold on his face. ”

Su Hongshan looked at Tang Ji, who was sneering at the Han court, but he didn't think so. Although he doesn't necessarily really love the imperial court, looking at Tang Ji's appearance, it is difficult to have admiration for Ceres.

Send an overseer to learn from your sect, as for putting on such a big formation? It's not like sending a thunder iron horse to sweep away your Yunlong Mountain.

In particular, the decision to send an inspector was made by his teacher Liao Pu...... Old man Liao must have been his intention.

However, Su Hongshan did not express his thoughts, but said:

"Okay, so you're here today, for?"

Tong Ji said firmly:

"That Inspector Dog is going to come today to check the cultivation of our Ceres God Sect, and the venue is arranged in the ring in front of this Plum Blossom Manor. Our disciple association elected four representatives to show in front of him the mastery of our Ceres Sect. All the people here are righteous fellow Daoists in the Youzhou Cultivation Realm, and they have come to cheer for us! Let him know that the general trend is on our side, not the group of tigers and wolves in the imperial court! ”

Speaking of excitement, he slapped his hand on the table and said:

"If this inspector is allowed to inspect our Ceres Sect logically today, the imperial court will send people to the Ceres Sect again and again in the future to further infiltrate and change our Ceres Sect, and even all the cultivation sects in Youzhou!"

Speaking of this, Tang Ji couldn't help but say, and pushed a piece of paper in front of Su Hongshan. Su Hongshan looked at it, and the paper was densely signed with people's names and addresses, and immediately understood what was going on. Tong Ji says:

"Friend, since you are also here to support our Ceres Sect, sign this joint letter! Our Cereals Sect has already allocated a large part of the pill reserves, and all the righteous friends of the cultivation realm who have left their names to sign in today will definitely be rewarded with high-grade pills in the future. ”

Top-grade elixir?

Su Hongshan's current skills are basically in the past few months, and his father Su has slowly practiced step by step. In the meantime, Su Chu also gave himself pills to improve his cultivation realm. This elixir, especially the top-grade elixir, is quite precious to ordinary cultivators.

Fuck, I can't complain that so many people are here today, Su Hongshan probably has a lot of people who came to prostitute pills. I don't really get this thing very rare, firstly, my father can provide it for me, and secondly, my father once said that you can't eat a real master by relying on pills. It's just that this joint letter should be signed by yourself, otherwise it will be a bit difficult to get over the face.

"Okay."

Su Hong took the pen and paper. When my fingers touched the paper and pen, I immediately sensed that there was a faint true qi sealed in it, which seemed to be a gesture to ensure that this joint certificate was not destroyed. Take a look at the title of this joint petition: Joint Opposition to the Inspector's Station...... Oh, got it.

Hmm, but let's write a kana.

Su Hongshan then signed:

Mulin Village School, Su B.
