Chapter 183: True Realm Retreat

Lu Shizhen understands these things, and Li Xuandu naturally understands them.

The second senior brother couldn't be the sect master, and he was disheartened, so he naturally wanted to let his close people be the sect master, so he did his best to support Li Xuandu to ascend to the throne, just like the relatives and ministers in the temple supported their nephews to compete for the throne.

Besides, the matter of the "Five Poisons True Pill", how difficult it is to refine, there were masters of the Zhengyi Sect who wanted to refine the "Five Qi True Pills" but could not get it, Li Xuan could get away with it, but it was a collection of the power of the four sects of Zhengyi Sect, Cihang Sect, Xuannu Sect, and Donghua Sect, Zhang Haishi was able to gather the materials within a few years with his own strength, and asked Wanshou Zhenren to personally refine it, how can the connections in this be underestimated?

The rivers and lakes are not only fighting and killing, but also sophisticated.

This is never an empty phrase.

If you want to cross the rivers and lakes, it is almost enough to have the force of the Heavenly Artificial Realm, but if you want to make the rivers and lakes bow down, it is far from enough, even if it is an immortal realm.

So when Qin Su asked Li Xuan if he was tired, Li Xuan would reply that he was tired, and he was tired.

When you first enter the rivers and lakes, you will yearn for the freedom of the rivers and lakes, and you will envy the happiness and hatred, but in this world, when have there been free people, which is not a bird in a cage? This river and lake is the biggest cage.

After so many winds and waves and ups and downs, Li Xuandu also wanted to open, he was not as clear as Qin Su, saying that the heavens are all empty, not to be a saint and a perfect person, not to be a hero, not to be a moral gentleman, not to be a prodigal son of the rivers and lakes, take care of yourself first, and then think about others, if you can do one point, you can do one point, if you can do ten points, you can do ten points, but do your best, with a clear conscience.

Just when Lu Shizhen was thinking about this, Li Xuandu and Qin Su were discussing the name of the sword. Qin Su proposed a few names, which were worthy of writing books, all of them were full of fairy spirit, but they were all rejected by Li Xuan as too feminine, after all, he was a big man and took out a sword with a fairy name, which was too unusual. Qin Su refuted Qin Su's rebuttal on the grounds that she used the saber with a very manly name of "Bullying Fang Dao", and then Li Xuandu refuted Qin Su's refutation on the grounds that "Bullying Fang Dao" was just a reason that Qin Qing lent Qin Su.

Refuted and refuted, and in the end, Qin Su was angry and didn't take a name, since she didn't need the name she wanted, don't let her make up her mind, let Li Xuan want to go by himself. Li Xuandu naturally put aside the matter of choosing a name first, and was careful to coax Miss Qin, but fortunately, Miss Qin did not hold grudges and admitted it, and soon the two reconciled as before.

It's just that the two of them laughed and made a fuss, and it took a lot of time, but the name was still not decided.

When Lu Shizhen came back to her senses, she happened to see this scene and couldn't help but sigh lightly.

The things between young men and women always make the hearts of the old people who have experienced the vicissitudes of life full of emotion, or smile, or sigh.

After the matter of taking the sword came to an end temporarily, Lu Shizhen specially set up a banquet to entertain guests, and the two naturally did not sweep the face of the owner of Lu Zhuang and stayed for the banquet. In fact, it is said that it is a feast, and there are only four people, Li Xuandu and Qin Su, plus Lu Shizhen's sister and brother.

After some staggering, the two were going to bid farewell to Xianjian Villa and return to Langya Mansion.

......

In the blink of an eye, it is the end of spring and April, and it looks like a hot summer is about to usher.

Since the death of his wife, Li Daoxu has moved to the Eight Scenic Courtyards on Penglai Island, and for at least eight months a year, he has locked himself in the Danfang called the True Realm Essence House in the Courtyard, and retreated to the Xuan Cultivation.

During Li Daoxu's retreat, the gate of the entire Bajing Courtyard was closed, and no one was allowed to go further, and around the courtyard, there was Tiankui Hall in charge of guarding, saying that it was a guard, but in fact, the role of blocking guests was greater.

A small boat fluttered and docked at the pier on Penglai Island, where there were already many people standing, all dressed differently, but the common denominator was that they all had swords hanging from their waists.

Qingwei Sect pays attention to the rules, and the way of wearing the sword is also very particular, the person who bears the sword behind his back is an ordinary disciple, and the person who hangs the sword from his waist is the steward at all levels.

The leader was a white-haired old man, but a small pocket sword symbolically hung from his waist, at most three fingers long, with a silver wire and black sheath, and the decoration was more meaningful.

After the boat stopped, a group of people immediately greeted them. In the distance, the white-haired old man arched his hand: "Mr. Two." ”

The person who came by boat was the second gentleman, Zhang Haishi, who was still the same, dressed in black, with a bamboo cane in his hand. This white-haired old man is not an outsider, it is none other than Li Rushi, the hall master of Tiankui Hall.

At this time, Li Rushi no longer saw the anger of the day, but his face was full of smiles, if he didn't know, he thought that he and Zhang Haishi were good friends.

After approaching, Li Rushi bowed and said: "Mr. Two came to Penglai Island, and he missed the welcome and hoped to atone for his sins." ”

It's all an old fox, he just tore his face not long ago, and in the blink of an eye, like no one else, it was already common for the two faces to change at will, so Zhang Haishi also responded with a smile and said: "What is the loss of being far away from the welcome, Hall Master Li is squeezing me." ”

Mr. Two said seriously. Li Rushi stretched out his hand and made a "please" action: "Where do I dare to squeeze Mr. Er, after all, who doesn't know this Qingwei Sect, Mr. Second is the first apprentice, Mr. Three, Mr. Fourth, they are all juniors, in this Qingwei Sect, in addition to the old sect master, it should be Mr. Second." ”

If this was put in the past, there would be no problem, but now, it is a bit out of place. Zhang Haishi slightly restrained the smile on his face and said, "Now that the third child is already the sect master of our Qingwei Sect, how can I be in front of him." ”

"If this is not the case, the sect master can't help but talk about the seniority. Although Li Rushi was smiling, if you look at his eyes carefully, you will find that there is no smile in it, only a cold one.

Zhang Haishi had a little smile on his face, and said: "The third child is willing to give me a little thin noodles, that is because he has the capacity to tolerate people, I can't be ignorant of good and bad, let alone unruly." ”

As they spoke, the group turned into a forest avenue, lined with lush trees, paved with bluestone under their feet, and a cool breeze was blowing in this already slightly hot weather.

At the end of this boulevard, a building with black tiles and white walls can be faintly seen in the greenery, and that is the Eight Scenic Courtyards, which are named because there are eight kinds of scenery around the courtyards.

When you come to the gate of the courtyard, you can clearly see the four vigorous and round regular characters of the "Eight Views Courtyard". At the bottom of the left side of the plaque, the eight small characters of "Disciple Situ Xuance Respectful Book" can also be seen clearly.

Li Rushi and Zhang Haishi were silent, and the two accompanying deacons behind them immediately stepped forward, first using their hands to slowly lift their two doors weighing hundreds of pounds a little, and then began to move slowly inward, the movements were not only fast, but also very light and sensitive, as if they were afraid of making a sound.

At this time, Li Rushi restrained the smile on his face, put on a solemn and respectful face, and said in a deep voice: "Today is the day when the old sect master comes out. ”

Zhang Haishi leaned on the bamboo cane in his hand, looked down at the ground, and did not speak.

After the door was completely open, Zhang Haishi raised his head and looked at the doorway.

Li Rushi said softly: "Mr. Two, please come with me." ”

Zhang Haishi nodded, followed him up the steps, and walked towards the doorway. The deacons were scattered around the gate in a figure of eight.

The courtyard is very large, and it is extremely unfamiliar to many people in the Qingwei Sect, it can be said that he has only heard of his name and has never met, but for Zhang Haishi, it is very familiar, at least thirty years ago, he often came here, he came whenever he wanted, and he could live as long as he wanted, and there were no Tiankui Hall guards at that time, it was not at all like now, it had become a forbidden place.

In fact, there is no need for Li Rushi to guide the way, Zhang Haishi also knows the location of the True Realm Essence House, but in the form, there are still so many rules, which are reflected in this seemingly useless form one after another.

The huge courtyard was empty, with no servants, no maidservants, no guards, only two people walking through the corridor and hall, and finally came to a temple.

At this time, the door of the main hall is closed, and there is a plaque hanging above the door of the hall, which reads: "True Realm Essence House" four words.

There is a saying in Taoist classics that the dojo of Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun in the Sanqing Patriarch is called "Immortal Realm True Realm", and the word "True Realm" is taken from here. And these four words were written by the old sect master Li Daoxu.
