Li Xuandu and Zhang Jingxiu returned the same way, and along the way, both of them were silent, and Li Xuan was digesting many things that he had just learned. The Seven Hermits of Confucianism were the seven people selected by the sage of Xinxue when he died, and these seven people hid their original names, leaving only their surnames, and later they simply gave up their surnames and used their own names instead. These seven people are not only mysterious in their identities, but also unpredictable, but there is no doubt that the seven people have great power in the Confucian sect, otherwise it is impossible to directly attack in the Imperial Palace without hurting themselves. Take the Tiger Zen Master as an example, it seems that he is living in seclusion in Dabao'en Temple, but if Dabao'en Temple is his bag, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it, and it can be seen that the leopard is in the tube.

Li Xuandu now finally understands what Zhang Jingxiu and Bai Xiusheng want to say but can't say clearly, and in the end, the Great Heavenly Master Zhang Jingxiu pierced half of the window paper, but it was only half of the window paper, it seemed to be transparent, and there was light penetrating in, but he couldn't see the whole picture, and if he wanted to pierce the other half of the window paper, Li Xuandu still had to go to see Master Li Daoxu.

Thinking of this, Li Xuandu thought of the person who helped Song Zheng go to the Golden Horde, I don't know which of the seven hermits could have a relationship with both the earth master and Song Zheng at the same time, it seems that this person's plan is not small.

When he had a conversation with Master Hu Chan just now, Li Xuandu said that he was a frog at the bottom of the well, not that Li Xuandu was deliberately modest, but that he did have such feelings. In the past, Li Xuan thought that he was standing on a high place, even if it was not the top of the mountain, it should be halfway up the mountain, but later he realized that he was actually standing at the foot of the mountain, like a frog at the bottom of the well, and all he saw was a piece of sky above his head. Just like the change in the imperial capital, Li Xuandu, as the person concerned, thought that he was a pivotal key figure, but later found out that the person who really decided the success or failure of this matter was already in the deep palace. Li Xuandu originally wondered why the temple could suppress the rivers and lakes, but it wasn't until he really became the master of a sect that he realized that the Confucianism that was inconspicuous on weekdays was such a terrible behemoth, even if the current Confucianism was weak, it was not something that Li Xuandu could easily shake alone.

After Li Xuandu achieved the cultivation of the Heavenly Man-made Realm, he could really jump out of the well, see how vast the world outside was, and know how difficult the path he chose.

However, Li Xuan did not regret it, the road was walked by people, there was no road in this world, and when there were many people walking, it became a road.

After Li Xuan's thoughts were straightened out, and the two of them also walked out of the stele forest, Zhang Jingxiu finally spoke: "The reason why Poor Dao brought Zifu to see Hu Zen Master today is to let Zifu understand one thing, the road is difficult and difficult, and it must be done slowly, and you must not spoil your plan because of impulse." ”

Li Xuan didn't respond in a single bit, nor did he say anything against it, but said: "Great Heavenly Master, it seems that there is no one heart between these seven people. ”

Zhang Jingxiu smiled faintly: "This is natural, seven people are seven hearts, you can't generalize, which ones can be helped, which ones are enemies, which ones can be co-opted, and which ones must be killed, you must distinguish them clearly, and you can't make half a mistake." ”

Li Xuandu said with a straight face: "Thank you for the teachings of the Great Heavenly Master." ”

After leaving Tallinn, there are more and more monks, whether these monks are Buddhists or Confucians, after seeing the Great Heavenly Master, the leader of the Daomen, they all salute one after another, and they are convinced, which is the result of years of prestige accumulation. Although these monks also saluted Li Xuandu, they were more fearful than respectful, if Li Xuandu was still a heavenly treasure

Li Xuandu, who has been in the past six years, is afraid that he has been kicked out of the temple by them. To use an inadvertent and appropriate analogy, the monks' respect for Zhang Jingxiu is "Huaide", and the respect for Li Xuandu is "fear".

Li Xuandu didn't care about it, because it may be enough for people to be afraid of one day, one night or even an hour, but it can be respected, but it will take a long time to accumulate over time.

......

Shen Changsheng, as the future sect master of the Taiping Sect, is also qualified to enter the Great Bao'en Temple, but now he is not qualified to enter the main hall, so he can only wander outside the hall with nothing to do. He heard that the people from the Xuannu Sect had arrived, but he didn't see Shuning, which made him a little disappointed. However, this is also reasonable, Shen Changsheng is just a special case, the future sect master of the Xuannu Sect is Yu Qingning, even if he wants to come, it should be said that Yu Qingning is coming.

Shen Changsheng sighed softly, sat on a step, put his hands on his cheeks, and looked at the willow tree not far away. After a while, a little novice walked quickly, bowed to Shen Changsheng, and asked softly, "This benefactor, but what do you want the little monk to serve?"

Shen Changsheng came back to his senses, was slightly stunned, and then waved his hand at Xiao Shami, got up from the steps, and went elsewhere.

is the so-called dwelling and qi cultivation and body transfer, when Li Xuandu and Shen Changsheng first met, Li Xuan was a down-and-out guest, and Shen Changsheng was a young man, but now Li Xuandu is already the suzerain of the Taiping Sect, and is respected by the world as "Mr. Qingping", as if he is a giant in the rivers and lakes. Of course, Shen Changsheng has also changed, his skin, which had become slightly black due to the wind and sun, has returned to its original color, and after being taught various rules and etiquette, he was carefully cleaned up and dressed up, as if he was a famous child, so the little novice would be so enthusiastic. If it was Shen Changsheng in the past, maybe he would have to interrogate this kid how he sneaked away to the Great Bao'en Temple.

This time, the Great Heavenly Master and Li Xuandu met, and what they planned was a big event, not a happy event such as getting married and ascending to the throne, so there were almost no juniors in the rivers and lakes, and all the people who came were people with heads and faces in the rivers and lakes.

Shen Changsheng wandered aimlessly in the Da Bao En Temple, in the eyes of the monks of the Da Bao En Temple, such a young boy could come to the Da Bao En Temple, he must have a good identity, and naturally he would not stop him.

Just when Li Xuandu and the Great Heavenly Master went to visit the Tiger Zen Master, Shen Changsheng came to a dense forest, which was rich in beauty and rarely populated. This is not surprising, Da Bao En Temple covers a vast area, not only there are mountains and rivers, but also a large number of plants and trees, the more you go to the back temple, the more so.

At this moment, Shen Changsheng suddenly felt a gust of cold air hitting his back, he subconsciously used the "Eight Divine Powers" taught to him by Mrs. Lu, the Taiping Sect is good at using foreign objects against the enemy, and is proficient in innate gossip calculations, so there are eight magical powers, corresponding to the eight trigrams, namely: Qiantian, Kundi, Zhenlei, Xunfeng, Kanshui, Lihuo, Genshan, and Duize, Shen Changsheng used the "Xunfeng Jue" in the Xunfeng Department at this time, and the whole person rose with the wind, like a fallen leaf fluttering, flickering left and right, making people elusive. Although this method is not the great master of the Heavenly and Human Realm, it can only resist the wind for a short time, but it is also much more clever than the ordinary light body exercises.

The person behind him let out a soft "huh", obviously not expecting Shen Changsheng to react so quickly, he couldn't help but feel a little bit of a sense of victory, and pointed at Shen Changsheng's back again, the intention was not to hurt people, but to control people. Before his fingers could reach his body, the cold aura emitted by Shen Changsheng had already made Shen Changsheng feel excited

, he couldn't help but shout: "It's 'Ice Finger'!" Shi Wuyue used this trick to sneak attack Zhong Wu that day, causing half of Zhong Wu's body to condense into ice and had to retreat.

Shen Changsheng didn't dare to look back, let alone stop, the wind was blowing under his feet, and he ran forward with his head bored, and there was a faint sound of flowing water in front of him, Shen Changsheng knew that it was the famous Perfume River, and after crossing this river, it was the back temple that outsiders could not set foot in.

At this moment, Shen Changsheng suddenly heard a woman shouting behind him, "Hey, where are you going?"

This voice made Shen Changsheng feel as if he had been slapped by the "palm thunder" of Zhengyizong, and the whole person trembled, stopped, and slowly turned around.

I saw a girl standing behind him with a hanging bun, her skin was like snow, her eyes were bright, her eyes were bright, her appearance was already extremely beautiful, she was wearing a white silk embroidered gold dress, and her waist was tied with jade satin, and after pulling a bow, a section of it hung down at will, and a pair of round-toed embroidered shoes were on her feet, and the tips of the shoes were painted with pale white plum blossoms, which were elegant and noble.

The girl stood not far away with her hands behind her back, attracting all of Shen Changsheng's attention, and she couldn't see anything else.

Shen Changsheng didn't feel his face red and his heart was beating, and he said, "Shu, Shuning, it was you just now, why are you here?"

The corners of the girl's mouth curled slightly, as if she was smiling, "Why, I can't be here?" Look at the way you looked just now, it seems that you have encountered a ghost, do you think I am more scary than a ghost?"

"How could it be!" Shen Changsheng hurriedly said, "I—I didn't know it was you. ”

Zhou Shuning looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "It is said that Shibei should be impressed for three days, I haven't seen you for a while, but you have changed your appearance and become Shen Gongzi, but why did you stutter when you spoke?"

"I'm just too excited. Shen Changsheng calmed down a little and stopped stammering, but his eyes lowered, staring at his shoes, not daring to look at the girl.

"Look at your stupidity. Zhou Shuning snorted lightly, "You're here with your brother, right?"

Shen Changsheng replied honestly: "Sect Master, he is discussing with the Great Heavenly Master, and I am not qualified to listen. ”

Zhou Shuning nodded, "Also, my brother is a person who does great things, and now even the Great Heavenly Master has to be polite to my brother." ”

Shen Changsheng raised his head and secretly looked at Zhou Shuning's side face, and asked carefully, "By the way, you haven't told me yet, why are you here?"

Zhou Shuning said: "Since I followed my senior sister to Jinling Mansion to meet Sister Su and Sister Qin, I have been staying in Jinling Mansion, and Senior Sister she went back to Xiaozhou alone. ”

Shen Changsheng vaguely remembered that there was such a thing, nodded, and said, "A few days ago, the sect master and Sister Qin also went to visit Yan Zhenren. ”

Zhou Shuning let out an "oh", a little unhappy.

Shen Changsheng hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Shuning sighed, "I just think that my brother has changed a lot, he is more majestic than his master, and he is no longer as close as before." ”

Shen Changsheng nodded sympathetically and said, "It's true, the sect master is getting more and more strict. ”

Zhou Shuning glared at him, "Okay, you dare to say bad things about your brother." ”

Shen Changsheng was stunned: "Aren't you also ......?"

"What are you?" Zhou Shuning showed a brutal look that had never been shown in front of Li Xuandu, "I can say, you can't." ”
