Chapter 13 The sound of the chime in the court

When the Feng Dao people and the Gao Dao people were talking, a disciple came to report and said, "Senior Brother Wen and Senior Brother Hu have returned from Shouzheng Palace. ”

Gao Dao said: "Let them in." ”

Wen Zhao and Hu Zixi came to the front of the seat and each visited their own teacher.

Gao Daoren said: "How about it, Zhang Shouzheng has not embarrassed you, right?"

Hu Zixi said: "Back to the teacher, Zhang Shouzheng had kind words for us, and later left us." ”

Feng Dao said: "Zhang Shouzheng is Xuanzun, he won't worry about you juniors, has Zhang Shouzheng ever explained anything to you?"

Wen Zhao said: "Master, being upright is just for us to explain the benefits and disadvantages of going to the inner and outer realms, and we need to think clearly. ”

The wind path man nodded and said: "You have to be careful, don't think that you can deal with everything if you are under the Xuanzun Sect, the gap between the inner and outer layers has always been the easiest place for outer monks and evil gods to invade, and often those who come over are difficult opponents." Those high-level powers have their own Zhang Shouzheng to deal with, but the descendants of the evil gods and the younger generations of cultivators need to deal with it yourself.

And when you enter Zhang Shouzheng's door, you need to act according to your orders, and you can do whatever you want, and we won't come to help you, but have you written it down?"

Wen Zhao and Hu Zixi are both awe-inspiring.

Gao Daoren waved his hand and said, "You wait to go down first." ”

After the two disciples retreated, he turned around and said, "As Brother Dao said, that Zhang Shouzheng accepted our disciples. ”

Feng Daoren said: "Who is the correct law between our Dao Fa and his Dao Fa, has not yet been decided, and it is difficult to predict the outcome in the future, but this is not a life-and-death battle between you and me, after all, he can't stand on the side of Zhenxiu, with the two of them under this Zhang Shouzheng, they will always be able to talk in the future." ”

Gao Daoren also nodded.

After the two talked about it again, they ordered someone to ask Shi to come over and began to try to deduce and perfect their own Dao method.

Xuan Ting was the first to order Hun Xiu to give him a seal and support the Feng Dao people to achieve Xuan Zun, hoping that he could deduce the Xuanfa method from top to bottom, and he has been trying to do this.

However, because he borrowed the power to go up, and the borrowed power was not his own law, so he never had to be perfect, and later after the achievements of Gao Daoren, Yu Chang, Shi Cheng and others, he also wanted to join forces with several people to deduce.

Gao and Shi both agreed, but after Yu Chang noticed that something was wrong, he insisted on doing so and insisted on finding a way to liberate himself, and they had no choice but to let him go.

Originally, if they had a hundreds of years of deduction, they would have been able to deduce the safe method step by step, but with the rise of creation, the Xuan Court has repeatedly abolished the Xuan Method, and now Zhang Yu has opened up the real Xuan Fa Method, and they are also worried that the Xuan Court will use this as an excuse to destroy the entire Xuan Fa, so they have to step up their actions, even if there are some drawbacks, they can't take care of it.

And in the next period of time, as expected by the Fengdao people, there were Hun Xiu Xuanzun who came to visit them one after another, even if some people did not come themselves, they also sent their disciples to express their opinions in a vague way.

However, although they have already made up their minds in their hearts, they do not express their intentions clearly as usual, nor do they promise anything.

Suddenly, most of the month passed, and it was the day of the court meeting in the middle of the month, when the two of them heard the sound of the chime bell, they got up from their seats and came out.

As the two of them walked, the surrounding Dao Palace gradually faded away, entering a sea of clouds, and then a long river of phosgene spread from under the feet of the two of them.

As the long river meandered upward, one after another appeared one after another, and there were still eleven people like last time.

At the end of the long river, the two of them bowed to the court above, and then sat down.

At this time, as soon as the jade chime sounded in the sky, the sound of a long sound spread throughout the sea of clouds, and the first Taoist standing at the top of the long river of phosgene looked at everyone, and asked first as usual: "Do you have any proposals?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a chime sounded below, and the court officials looked over, but saw the worshippers standing up and bowing to the top.

The first Daoist and Yan Yuese asked, "What is Chongting's proposal?"

Chongdao people said in a deep voice: "First deacon, all court deacons, this time Long Huai colluded with several Hun Zhang monks to set off a turbid tide, not to mention that it has not been found, but now it has implicated four Hun Zhang monks. ”

His voice gradually became serious, "The root cause here is that the turbidity tide affects the changes of the heavens, which can give Hun Zhang monks the understanding of the Tao. However, now the Taoist machine is not seen, but there are many people who mess with my Tianxia order, so I propose today that strict rules and legislation be forbidden, and the monks of Hun Zhang will be prohibited from participating in the turbidity tide mysteries in the future. ”

There was a person surnamed Tingzhi who was born in Hun Xiuchao and immediately stood up when he heard this, and refuted: "Chongting Zhi's words are wrong, this time, there are also people like Long Huai, how can it only talk about the head of Monk Hun Zhang?"

What's more, Chongting Fang Cai also said that every seventy or eighty years, there will be a little turbidity tide everywhere in the inner layer of the earth and land with a tendency to revivenation, this is the turn of the inner heavenly machine, how much can you take the opportunity to comprehend, so why bother to stop this opportunity?"

Chong Tingzhi looked at him and said, "Could it be that Hun cultivation can't cultivate the Tao without the turbid tide?"

Chao Tingzhi said unhappily: "Where did this come from? Everything exists, it has its own reason, my generation cultivates, we should look down on all things, and corroborate each other, but because of the evil deeds of a few people, it will be pushed to all, which is too much!"

Chong Tingzhi said coldly: "This kind of matter has been debated many times before, and the pros and cons have been clearly explained, but I can't take it to the court in the past, and I don't want to argue with Daoist friends again, I will inevitably suffer from turmoil again in Tianxia, and this matter must have a result this time." ”

At this moment, another jade chime sounded, and everyone looked, but saw that it was Zhong Tingzhi who stood up, and he said: "Shouzhi, Zhong thought that there was really no need to argue about this matter, so he would find a result in the court." ”

The first Taoist pondered for a moment and said, "It's okay, since you can't argue, then let's settle this case." ”

Chong Tingzhi didn't wait for others, first raised his sleeves and picked up the jade mallet, knocked on the jade chime, and then sat down.

Zhong Ting Zhizi also followed and knocked on the jade chime, and said: "This law should be established!"

And the third one who struck the chime jade was Chen Tingzhi, who was also a monk of Hun Zhang, and he said expressionlessly: "Chen is attached to this proposal. ”

Chao Ting glanced at him and didn't say much.

Chen Tingzhi had personally arrested the Hun Xiu Xuanzun who had colluded with Crested Crane before, which had already made his position clear, and it was not surprising that he had made such a move.

It's just that at this time, another Taoist from Hun cultivation on the seat picked up the jade chime and knocked it, obviously agreeing with this proposal.

Chao Tingzhi sneered: "What's the matter? Wei Daoyou, did you also side with them?"

The Taoist man sighed: "The general trend is like this, why should Taoist friends disobey? Besides, the influence of the turbid tide on me is indeed inappropriate, and it is inevitable that some of my generation will sink into this, and it is indeed time to set some rules." ”

Among the eleven court deacons present, in addition to the two Xuan Xiu and the three Hun Zhang monks, six were true cultivators, and they would not refute this proposal, and one after another said that there should be a law to restrain this.

Chao Tingzhi said resolutely at this moment: "I will never agree with this proposal!"

The first Taoist looked down at this time, and saw that the wind and the senior two sat still, did not express their position, and said, "What do you think?"

Generally speaking, these two people have always been in line with the general trend and have never clearly stated their positions, but this time, Feng Dao people said slowly: "Feng thinks that this discussion is inappropriate." ”

Gao Daoren nodded and said, "Me too." ”

Chao Ting's spirit couldn't help but be lifted.

The rest of the court officials frowned, and the three court officials rejected this proposal, so the court decision could not be passed.

The first Taoist looked at the two of them, then looked at Chao Tingzhi, and said, "Since the three Taoist friends have a discussion, then this matter will be put aside for the time being, and it will be discussed next time." ”

As soon as he said this, the court officials also knew that there would be no result this time, so they did not argue anymore, and tacitly skipped the matter and talked about other proposals.

And after this court discussion, everyone dispersed, and Feng and Gao also returned to the Dao Palace.

After Gao Daoren sat down, he said: "This time, I will wait for this proposal to be rejected above the court meeting, and someone will come to persuade us to wait later, and then we can ask for an exchange with them." ”

Generally speaking, if the court decision is rejected, then the matter will be entrusted to the deacons for adjudication.

But in fact, few court officials are willing to send such things to the top, because then it means that things are completely out of their control, and they don't like to be pressed on their heads.

So it's usually a matter of internal adjustment and compromise until an outcome is acceptable to all parties, and then the matter can be handled in their hands.

And the first executive is the last one every time or simply does not express his position, in fact, it also leaves a room for turnaround.

On the surface, it seems that just doing this will make it airtight, but it's actually very difficult to do.

First of all, there are only three discussions, which means that if the matter is discussed at the court meeting, as long as there is no clear conclusion after three court discussions, then it must be sent to the hands of the regents for adjudication.

Again, there are a few court leaders who have the support of the deacon, so as long as the deacons are intentional, they will inevitably be able to reach in.

The wind path man sighed: "It's a pity that we can only stand here this time, and there are not many choices for my generation." ”

As long as the matter of Hun Xiu is not resolved, the Xuan Court will not turn its attention to the matter of justifying the name of the Xuan Fa, so they must support Hun Xiu this time and strive for more time to be saved.

And Hun Xiu can get their help, and he can also exchange it for this generation to support them in the matter of the occult law.

Gao Daoren sighed: "It's a pity for Yu Daoyou, if he can not be so anxious, continue to sit firmly in the position of the outer guard, and when he becomes the court leader, the three of us will join forces, and we will be able to have a place above the Xuan Court." ”

Feng Daoren shook his head and said: "This is useless, the two of us are much worse than everyone on the throne regardless of their qualifications and deeds, and when I was able to sit in this position, it was also through the support of the Xuan Ting, and whether it is true cultivation or uncultivated cultivation, it will definitely not make me really powerful, I expect that even if Yu Daoyou does not have an accident, it will also talk about you and me." ”

Gao Daoren couldn't help but be silent, and after a while, he said: "But this time, we have to fight, let them know that our generation is not without weight." ”

The two originally thought that even if no one came from Zhenxiu's side, someone would definitely come to look for them when Hun Xiu's side came down, and they could take advantage of the situation to put forward conditions.

However, things did not develop like this, and in the blink of an eye, half a month passed, but no one came to the door, and the outside was extremely calm, which made the two faintly feel that something was wrong, but they didn't know what the problem was.

A few days later, as the court meeting resumed, they were once again on the court.
