Chapter 218: Flowers are free

"Daddy, I'll go see Grandpa tomorrow."

Ji Longwei's face was a little stiff and said, "Your grandfather is in retreat, and he told us not to disturb." ”

When Ji Wenyi heard this, he immediately became interested, and said, "Grandpa, he's going to break through the Xuan Realm?" That's a good thing. ”

Ji Longlin said with a smile: "Your grandfather's talent may not be able to cultivate to the Xuan Realm in this life, if Ah Yi, if your words are heard by the old man, I think you are laughing at him." ”

Ji Wenyi immediately asked: "If it's just a foundation building realm, how can there be anything to retreat, if there is anything I don't understand, I can teach grandpa." ”

"Nonsense!" Ji Longwei glared at Ji Longlin, "You just want to lift out the old man's bottom." ”

Then he looked at Ji Wenyi again, "You are also messing around, no big or small, with your Grandpa Xu by your side, how can you teach the old man, aren't you arrogant in the sect, and think that you can be stronger than the master of the Moon Realm?" ”

Ji Wenyi was indeed a little disapprehensive in his heart, if it was true about the accumulation of theoretical knowledge, Grandpa Xu might not be stronger than the disciples cultivated by Xuanming Dao, and some of the ideas of the little junior disciple You Ziji might also shock a person like Grandpa Xu. But he has been very close to Xu Zilai, a guest in his family, since he was a child, and he will never say derogatory words about him in front of others, and he seems uneducated.

"Since Grandpa Xu is here, what can't be broken through the threshold that needs to be retreated?"

Ji Longlin took a sip, "Maybe I think I'm pure alone." ”

"Fourth!" Ji Longwei's tone was a little stern, revealing a lot of blame.

Seeing this, Ji Wenyi knew that his father didn't want him to know about something, but Ji Longwei was emotional at this time, but it was not easy to ask.

Ji Longwei said to Ji Wenyi a little apologetically: "Don't you want to buy some Yuan Dan, I will send someone to gather what you need in the next two days, and then you can go back to the sect, and you don't want to get involved in the affairs of the family." ”

"I hope I can really leave here easily, and if I want to be escorted by Grandpa Xu, I will be safe all the way."

The words that Ji Wenyi blurted out made Ji Longwei speechless, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. He knew that the threat Ji Wenyi was talking about was Ji Wenhong.

Ji Longlin scolded with a smile: "You kid is really whimsical, doesn't Old Xu still have to protect your grandfather." ”

Ji Longwei didn't seem to expect the fourth brother to say such a thing, so he turned his head to look at Ji Longlin, but the emotions contained in their eyes were a little restrained, and they really couldn't see anything famous.

Unlike the two elders who pretended to be calm, Ji Wenyi chuckled in his heart, and said secretly: "Grandpa Fei is also in danger, you can tell Uncle Hao about this matter." ”

The three of them came to Ji Long Weixin's residence with their own concerns.

"We've moved here since your brother started his own home."

Ji Longwei explained to his son.

Ji Wenyi remembered his brother's attitude, he hadn't seen each other for a few years, and the two had such an estrangement, "I really don't want my brother to live at home after he becomes independent." ”

Ji Longwei heard Ji Wenyi's words of resentment, and he wanted to reprimand, but remembering what Ji Wenhong had done, he was very powerless, so he could only try his best to avoid letting his two sons fight each other in the future. Thinking about it this way, it was really a wise move for the old man to send Ji Wenyi to Xuanming Dao to learn art.

"Let's not talk about this, your mother is still waiting for us to eat."

Ji Wenyi had to clean up his mood, and when the wanderer returned home, he naturally shouldn't let his family worry about it.

……

In the middle of the night, almost all the people in the Governor's Mansion had already fallen asleep, and Zhao Gongzi, who had been busy all day, had also reached the time to rest, even if his cultivation was not bad, but after all, most of the time was spent working every day, which consumed brain power the most, and there was nothing wrong with resting more.

Thinking of what he had experienced during the day, Zhao Gong felt a sense of indignation, but it made him unable to sleep at night. It's not that he was tricked by the younger generation of Xuan Mingdao, but because he inexplicably took the blame for others.

No matter where he is, even an official at the level of a feudal official like him has his own dissatisfaction.

In the Governor's Palace, there are four official offices as the highest positions. He Zhao Gong is the governor of Longzhou, and on the surface, he is the person with the most status except for the Xuanming Dao Sect. There are three officials who help with the management, namely Biejia, Changshi, and Sima.

Don't drive is the vice-president of the governor, the right-hand man of the Governor's Mansion, but at this moment it has become a position dedicated to the elderly, the former Governor Li Qing took this position, has always ignored government affairs, but is the position of the elderly, under which are a group of old people who are on temporary duty to eat Lu, although it has a great impact on the finances of the Governor's Palace, he has also tried to suppress this series of figures. But after all, this is the old rule of Longzhou, and those old fritters in the officialdom also rely on this law to keep a way for themselves, even if Zhao Gong leaves office in the future, I am afraid that he will also rely on this method to continue to grab benefits for himself. Moreover, Zhao Gong, as the new governor back then, used a team that they had cultivated, so that some key positions were still in their hands, and the tail was too big to lose, but they were probably still on his side, and it was not completely lagging behind.

Changshi is in charge of all government affairs of the chief, should be the governor's subordinate officials, but do not want the family power here is huge, with the power across the east and west, north and south of Longzhou headed by the Ming family, some monks in the family, also raised some sergeants, the most important thing is that almost a quarter of the grassroots management personnel are from the Ming family, in fact, in charge of a large area of Longzhou's tax affairs, from the bottom up, until the position of the long history is under the control of the Ming family. It can be said that the Governor's Mansion of Longzhou is a long history of iron and a governor of flowing water. Even the other series is a strange pattern formed according to the existence of the Ming family's talents. And Changshi Ming Gongling himself is just the younger brother of the head of the Ming family.

As for Sima, he is a military leader in a state, in charge of the state's soldiers and horses, but it is a pity that the generals with a little ability are more or less connected with the local family in Longzhou, and they really can't be cronies, and their own cronies and generals have no prestige. No matter how long the history is, he also intends to seize control of the army, and all the two sides fight for it, and finally compromise on each person's own army, and nominally give it to a literati who is completely incompetent in military affairs, and it is He Zhangshi He Sima who went to Zijun to inspect the county town.

Zhao Gong and the Ming family cooperated and resisted each other, and all they did was to bring back the power of the governor. He didn't think he was a good person, but it was a bit unpleasant to count what Ming Gongling had done on his head.

Although there are also the benefits of his Zhao Gong, it is his Ming Gong Spirit that starts.

The more Zhao Gong thought about it, the more angry he became, so he had to put on his coat and turn over and get out of bed, he felt a little dry mouth, poured a cup of tea on the table, and drank it into his stomach two or three times. But the feeling of thirst still did not disappear, so he had to pour some more herbal tea to drink, and then Xu felt troublesome, and poured the teapot spout directly into his open mouth, which made him feel a little cooler.

But then, Zhao Gong felt a breath of urine again, and immediately went out to release it.

Zhao Gong, who was about to go to the yard, ignored the urinal under the bed, he pushed open the door and walked straight out, and when he saw a flower, he untied his trouser belt there.

"Your Excellency the Governor is so shameless in peeing on his own potted plants."

The sudden mocking voice made Zhao Gong shocked, and he immediately lifted his pants and tied them, while looking left and right, trying to find out the people hiding in the shadows.

"Who is it? Don't you dare to trespass into my governor's palace and don't want to live? ”

The voice didn't answer him, but let out a hearty laugh, "Hahaha, the dignified Governor actually peed his pants." ”

Zhao Gong suddenly felt a trace of warmth on his pants, and hurriedly looked down to see that he was really incontinent and wet his pants. This was enough to discredit the Governor in his fifties, and he was a little devastated, and he was a little at a loss, and he actually forgot that he was a Xuanjing cultivator, and it was difficult to force his pants to urine.

He was stunned for a while, and the person hiding in the shadows came over with great interest, wanting to see Zhao Gong, who had no reaction after being hit.

"Hehe, this Governor is nothing more than that, peeing your pants can scare you silly."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Gong burst into action and grabbed the man's wrist, "Where to run!" ”

The man was also stunned on the spot, Zhao Gong looked carefully, and saw that the man had a childish face, wearing a slightly wrinkled dark blue robe, his hair seemed to have been unpaid for a long time, and there was a sparse beard on his face, as if he had just grown. It's clearly a crazy old Taoist priest.

Zhao Gong saw that the old Taoist priest did not react, so he took a sip, and secretly said that he was unlucky, and he didn't know how the guards outside let him in, and let them get out tomorrow!

"Naturally, it came in, could it be that it flew in?"

When Zhao Gong heard the old Taoist priest speak, he immediately stared at his eyes and said, "Old Taoist priest, if you tell your origin, it is possible for me to spare your life, otherwise I will be angry, and your old body and bones will not be able to withstand it." ”

Who knew that the old Taoist's eyes were still dull, as if he had not moved. Thinking back to the direction where the voice came from just now, Zhao Gong immediately turned his head to look and saw an identical old Taoist priest standing not far from him.

Zhao Gong howled in fright, immediately let go of the old Taoist's wrist, and asked in a trembling voice, "Who are you, why are there two of you?" ”

The old Taoist priest smiled: "How can there be two mes? You must be dazzled. ”

After that, he walked to the old Taoist priest before and merged into one and became a person. This scene made Zhao Gong's lips tremble with fright, and he said in a trembling voice: "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

The old Taoist priest said: "You are already a monk in the Xuan Realm, you should not be afraid of ghosts, and I am naturally not a ghost." ”

Zhao Gong breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw the next moment, the old Taoist priest who was sluggish after getting up still didn't move, and the two of them just now only coincided and did not return to one person, which made Zhao Gong's heart rise again.

The old Taoist priest didn't seem to notice Zhao Gong's expression, but asked, "Lord Governor is not so useless, and he even wants to fight back." ”

After all, Zhao Gong is a feudal official, and he has seen many big scenes, and he finally regained his composure, he said: "After all, I am the governor of a state, I will not do things like those immoral things just now, everything is under your control or guidance to me." I don't know what I told you about here, and I will definitely cooperate. ”

The old Taoist priest looked at him with a smirk, "Your Excellency the Governor should have heard of my title, you can guess it." ”

Zhao Gong replied frankly: "Forgive me for being clumsy, I didn't think of the name of the Taoist master. ”

"You mentioned me during the day today."

Zhao Gong looked puzzled, trying his best to search his memory, and suddenly he showed a look of astonishment.

"The Governor has a good idea, I am the Master of Xuanming Dao."

Zhao Gong's heart was shocked, and he said: "It turned out to be Master Xiaoyao, I don't know what happened to come here to find it." ”

This Xiaoyao Master's fame can be resounding in the world, and he is recognized as the first person under the Xuanming Dao Sect, and he was a genius on a par with Dongfang Ming back then. But unlike Dongfang Ming, who made enemies everywhere, Master Huazi has never had many enemies, or rather, the truly undying enemies have been disposed of by him, and most of those who have left their lives never dare to mention his name again. Thinking of Qiu Qianqiu's unashamed words during the day, Zhao Gong really had no bottom in his heart.

"Naturally, my apprentice was looking for you in the morning, and you seem to have laid out bad means to take him down."

Zhao Gong hurriedly apologized, "The Taoist is wrong, the noble disciple is extremely talented, everything I do is for self-preservation, and there is absolutely no intention for the noble disciple." ”

"I've heard that you not only look down on me as a disciple, but also say that I'm not good."

Zhao Gong's cold sweat immediately flowed, and explained: "Dao Ye remembered wrong, this is not what I said, it was Master Qiu who said that it has nothing to do with me." ”

"Although your surname Qiu said it, you also think so in your heart!"

"Where do you start with this, Dao Ye has wronged me."

Hua Zizi smiled playfully, "Then why are you still sorry for Lord Qiu?" ”

Zhao Gong hurriedly said: "There is no such thing, I am ...... Can you see what I'm thinking?! ”

At this moment, Zhao Gong was completely panicked.

Hua Zizi replied: "You just know? In dreams, I can know what's going on in your mind. Don't fantasize that someone will come back to save you, for it may seem to outsiders that you are still asleep. The only person who can help you, Lord Qiu, is now struggling to protect himself. ”

Zhao Gong couldn't believe it, everything in front of him was too realistic, "I'm in a dream now?" ”

"Of course." Hua Zizi not only gave him an accurate answer, but also demonstrated it in front of him, he quickly approached Zhao Gong, leaving behind a clone with the same ability to think and act with every step, and the previously sluggish Hua Zizi was also rejuvenated and active. Their actions would also produce a clone of the heart, and soon the entire courtyard was filled with such crowding that Zhao Gong couldn't even say a word.

Such a magical and terrifying scene did not wake him up, but continued to continue in the dream, every flower was retelling what he was thinking in his heart, and the secrets hidden in his heart, which almost drove Zhao Gong crazy.

Fortunately, the sky finally dawned, and there seemed to be an earthquake shaking in the courtyard, Zhao Gong was in fear, and the things he saw slowly distorted and disappeared, and he finally came to his senses.

It turned out that it was the shaking of the person next to the pillow who woke him up, Zhao Gong exhaled a deep breath of turbidity, and said in his heart: "What a terrible nightmare." ”

Who knew that the person next to the pillow said with some complaints: "The master sleeps like a dead pig, no matter how he screams, he can't call it, and he wets the bed, but it's dirty, and he can't stay if he doesn't wake up and the concubine." ”

Zhao Gong was excited, looked under him, and sure enough, he was already soaked, and there was a slight smell of urine, "This is not a dream, it is Master Xiaoyao who is really here." ”

He muttered and staggered out of bed to get dressed, looking like he was out of character. The little concubine on the side was terrified, and when she saw Zhao Gong leaving, she didn't care about the danger and took the initiative to go to the master's mother to complain.

Zhao Gong stumbled all the way and finally came to Lord Qiu's mansion, and he would only have some sense of security by Qiu Qianqiu's side at this time.

"I've seen the Governor."

Zhao Gong saw the maid ring of Qiu Mansion coming to pay his respects, and immediately grabbed his hands and asked, "Where is Lord Qiu, take me to see him." ”

The maid was trembling with fear by Zhao Gong's state at the moment, but she still replied: "The master is still sleeping in the bedroom and has not gotten up, if the governor is in a hurry, the slave will wake up the master." ”

Zhao Gong's legs fell to the ground with weakness, and he only remembered that Qiu Qianqiu had not woken up yet, and he didn't hear Yahuan's next words at all. He knew in his heart that Qiu Qianqiu's cultivation was profound, and he could know it before he entered the courtyard gate on weekdays, but he was still asleep at the moment, and he must have been trapped in a dream by Master Xiaoyao.

……

After Qiu Qianqiu fled from Gu Xuan, he searched for a whole afternoon but did not find it, and he was also unhappy in his heart. Remembering that he has achieved the Moon Gazing Realm for many years, and he is also from a famous family, the resume of the Tianfu monk is probably faintly higher than that of the six major factions, but he has eaten turtles in the hands of a junior.

After returning to the residence, he began to devote himself to studying and reviewing, wanting to crack the spell when Gu Xuan left, but it was fruitless after all, thinking that it was a really powerful spell of Xuan Ming Dao.

I remembered what Gu Xuan said when he left, to settle accounts in the night dream. Qiu Qianqiu was not afraid, but still had some expectations, he was about to compete with Gu Xuan again, otherwise it would be difficult to mind in his heart.

So as soon as it was dark, he had already slept in his loose clothes.

Soon he fell into a dream, and it was easy for a cultivator like him to enter the dream land at will.

Suddenly, there was a strange noise outside the house, not caused by a wild cat, but rather man-made. Qiu Qianqiu got up from the bed and pushed the door. He wants to see where the rats don't open their eyes and come to him to be presumptuous.

After going out, I saw a black shadow flashing from his side, and his figure was a little familiar, who else could it be if it wasn't Gu Xuan, who he had just come into contact with. He hurried to follow, but he had already lost his trace.

"Since he said that he was going to be in a dream, he must have done something to me, so I lay down on the bed and waited to see how he did it."

Qiu Qianqiu understood the reason, so he went back to the bed and covered the quilt and pretended to be asleep.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the dark shadow to slowly approach the place.

Qiu Qianqiu was overjoyed in his heart, but he was not in a hurry, but waited for the opportunity.

The black shadow came to Qiu Qianqiu, took out a slender iron needle, which was two feet long, and was about to stab it, Qiu Qianqiu became angry and roared: "The so-called dream reckoning is secretly poisoning me after I sleep?" I didn't expect you to be so stupid, cultivators above the Xuan Realm will not be affected even if they don't sleep, you can't even remember this bit of common sense, and you still come to assassinate? ”

Qiu Qianqiu uttered all kinds of heart-wrenching words over and over again, grabbed the black shadow over and over again, and ripped off his hood. Qiu Qianren fixed his eyes and saw that Rao is cultivation for decades had seen a lot and was also frightened to take a few steps back, where is this Gu Xuan, it is clear that he has always been a monster.

The iron needle turned out to be mouthparts, and the so-called black shadow turned out to be a big mosquito that had become a sperm, his mouthparts were sharp, his face was hideous and terrifying, and his complexion was as blue and white as a sick ghost, which made a goosebump appear on Qiu Qianqiu's body.

Without hesitation, he slapped his palm down, shattering the black shadow. But in the next moment, the shattered fragments of this black shadow turned into a black mist in the sky, enveloping Qiu Qianqiu in it.

Qiu Qianqiu was very disgusted with this mosquito monster, and the black mist it turned into would naturally be rejected by Qiu Qianqiu, so he used all his skills to get rid of the black fog.

But how did he know that this black mist was not something he could break free from at all, not that the black mist itself had any doorway, but that the strength of Master Xiaoyao was too much higher than him.

Slowly, the black mist surrounded Qiu Qianqiu's body more and more tightly, and he became more and more unable to break free, and then he was completely submerged in the darkness and lost his figure.

When Qiu Qianqiu was able to see the scene in front of him clearly, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

There was magma all around him, and there were no entrance gaps on the top, bottom, left, right, and side, as if it was just an enclosed space. Qiu Qianqiu looked up and down, and finally came to the most reasonable conclusion, he may be in someone else's magic weapon and wants to refine him.

Qiu Qianqiu would not sit still, he took out a compass to confirm the location of this place thoroughly. But what happened next made him dumbfounded. Relying on the compass to determine the direction quickly, the next moment the compass's pointer will change, pointing in a completely different direction from before.

His compass magic weapon is not an ordinary object, it is a magic weapon that has the ability to break the shield, but for some reason it can't be used here.

Suddenly, Qiu Qianqiu had a terrifying idea in his heart, he may not be in reality, and the compass in his hand is naturally not a real compass.

"Am I in a dream?"

Qiu Qianqiu suddenly remembered that he had faced Gu Xuan's ridicule in front of him during the day, and Gu Xuan was obviously very surprised by his behavior at that time. Combined with the current situation, I am afraid that the Master of Freedom made a move because of this.

"Master Xiaoyao, in the Lower Heavenly Mansion Keqing Qiu Qianqiu, if there is anything offended, I am willing to apologize in person, and please show up."

He shouted several times, but received no response, and gave up on the idea of sneaking up while Master Xiaoyao appeared.

Suddenly, the magma in front of Qiu Qianqiu seemed to be bulging, although he was a master of art and bold, he did not dare to hold it up when Master Xiaoyao had not yet appeared. So he broke out of the lava and found a place above the cave wall.

Qiu Qianqian said with hatred: "There is no place to settle here except for the wall, if there are powerful monsters in the magma, it is not easy to solve." ”
