Qingweizong occupies more than 360 islands, of which the main island is one hundred and eight, that is, the origin of the thirty-six hall masters and seventy-two island masters. Among the one hundred and eight islands, there are three major fairy islands, namely: Penglai, Abbot, and Yingzhou.

Penglai Island is the residence of the Taishang Sect Master, Tiankui Hall has been stationed here for many years, and people who are idle are not allowed to set foot here. The Taoist scripture has clouds: "The abbot is the master of the Heavenly Sect, the master of the world, the correct law of the Dragon Gate, the mercy of the sea of suffering, the model of the whole truth, the program of the law gate, not the master of the Tao, can not stand." "Therefore, Abbot Island is the residence of the suzerain and the place where the sect is discussed.

It was only because the old sect master Li Daoxu was in retreat on Penglai Island that the focus of the Qingwei Sect gradually shifted to Penglai Island, making Penglai Island overwhelm Abbot Island. Just as Emperor Sejong did not live in the palace, but in the West Garden, the center of gravity of the court was moved from the palace to the West Garden, and the later Emperor Muzong also died in the Yanbo Hall of the West Garden.

However, when Li Daoxu was not in retreat, many things were still discussed, so Abbot Island still played a pivotal role in the Qingwei Sect, second only to Penglai Island.

The owner of Abbot Island is Li Ruju, she is called the owner of the island, but she is actually equivalent to a big housekeeper, where can she be in charge, but she must be careful everywhere. There is a saying in officialdom: Three lives are unfortunate, the county is attached to Guo, three lives are evil, Guozhou City is attached, and evil is full of Guo, and Guo Dijing is attached. The so-called "Zhixian attached to Guo" means that the prefect and the prefect are in the same city, and every move of the prefect must be restrained by the prefect, "exhausted", and completely devoid of the prestige of the "parent official". "Attached to the provincial capital" means that the prefect, prefect, governor or governor are in the same city. Needless to say, Guo Dijing is attached.

Another way of saying it: If you were not good in your previous life, you will know the county in this life, if you do evil in your previous life, you will know that the county will be attached to Guo, and if you are full of evil, you will be attached to Guozhou City.

"Attached Guo" refers to the attached Guo County, also called the first county, that is, the county seat and the prefecture or provincial capital are in the same place, that is, the prefect and the prefect, governor or governor are in the same city. The county order of the attached state resides in the prefecture and the county under the jurisdiction of the leader, so it is sent to usher, and the task of entertaining the past governors is also heavier than that of other states and counties. Among them, the county order attached to the governor or governor in the same city is more important than the county order attached to the prefect. This characteristic of attaching Guo County has made people in the officialdom think that it is too difficult to attach Guo County's order and should not be done. That's why it is said that only those who have done evil in their previous lives should be attached to the Guo County Order, this is retribution, there are many evils, and the retribution is also heavy.

Li Ruju, the owner of the island, is a "county order attached to Guozhou City", and he is on the same island with the suzerain and all the hall masters.

Today, all the hall masters have landed on the island, and Li Ruju, as the owner of the island, naturally has to make proper arrangements, and it is very busy. She counted it carefully, except for Situ Xuan, the master of the Heavenly Machine Hall, who had not arrived, the rest of the rankings

The eleven hall masters at the front were all present, including Li Rushi, the hall master of Tiankui Hall, and Li Ruxian, the deputy hall master of Tiangang Hall, who was acting as the hall master because of the vacancy of the hall master.

After the eleven hall masters arrived one after another, Li Ruju had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a leaf boat coming leisurely. Li Ruju suddenly applied solemnly, hurriedly greeted him, and said, "Li Ruju has seen the deputy sect master. ”

The person who came was Zhang Haishi, who just said "um" lightly, abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, still holding a bamboo cane, and walked alone to the majestic building in the center of the island.

This is a veritable Taoist palace, not inferior to the real people's mansion of Zhengyizong, after a side engraved with the word "Qingwei", it is a huge square, paved with white jade, smooth as the realm. The whole square is rectangular, like a long sword, and the entrance position is the "tip of the sword", passing through the "sword spine", "sword spine", "sword handle" After that, come to the position of the head of the sword, here is connected to the ninety-nine white jade long steps, the width is about ten zhang, each step is more than a foot high, all the way up the mountain, surrounded by the white jade carved railing, carved above the carved column with different shapes of different beasts, there is the wonderful use of suppressing evil and driving away ghosts, the column is carved with a variety of immortal legends and allusions, the pictures of each carved column are different, if you look closely, you will find that these pictures are extremely clever sword spectrum, but unfortunately the people who can come here do not have to learn these sword spectrums anymore, and the people who want to learn will never come here。

Climb the steps, it is a huge palace, the whole body tone is biased to the color of blue and black, the glazed tiles, the green jade is the eaves, the sandalwood paves the ground, and there is ambergris incense equivalent to gold, Miao Miao rises smoke, it is really the place where the fairy goes,

Above the main entrance of the main hall, a plaque was hung, on which the word "green collar" was written.

At this time, a mighty bell sounded in the Qingling Palace.

The hall masters in the palace have already taken their seats, and only the upper position is vacant.

The white-haired old man walking slowly with a bamboo cane passed through the "Qingwei" archway, passed through the sword-shaped square, and climbed the steps.

On both sides of the steps, there were disciples with negative swords, and they all bowed their heads and saluted.

Li Ruju, who was following closely behind Zhang Haishi, took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "The deputy sect master has arrived." ”

The hall masters, who were originally talking and laughing, turned grim, got up one after another, and looked out together.

Zhang Haishi still walked unhurriedly, as if he didn't care at all that there were many hall masters waiting in the Qingling Palace.

Almost at the same time that Zhang Haishi crossed the high threshold of the main gate of the Qingling Palace, Li Yuanying, as the sect master, and his wife Gu Yusheng also walked into the Qingling Palace through the side door.

Li Yuanying took the initiative to step forward and said with a smile: "Senior brother." ”

Zhang Haishi bowed slightly: "Sect Master." Then he sat straight to his position, second only to Li Yuanying's position as the sect master, in him

On the opposite side is Gu Yusheng's position, and below him is Li Rushi.

When Li Daoxu had not yet stepped down from the position of suzerain, he was here to discuss matters and sit in Li Yuanying's position. It's just that when he stepped down from the position of sect master and sat in such a position again, it was a little out of place, and then there was gradually a discussion in the Eight Scenery Courtyard.

After Li Yuanying took a seat, he stretched out his hand and pressed down, motioning for everyone to take a seat.

This is the second time that the hall masters have taken their seats.

Everyone knows that although Li Yuanying is the sect master, in terms of power, Li Yuanying can only rank third, the first is the old sect master, and the second is the second gentleman Zhang Haishi.

What is being discussed today is the matter of Li Xuandu, who is now in a uproar on the rivers and lakes.

Who is Li Xuandu, everyone understands that he was a person who almost became the sect master, but he ended up being expelled from the sect.

At that time, it seemed that Li Xuandu's fate was naturally not very good, after all, without the position of the sect master, even the identity of Mr. Four was lost.

Who would have thought that Li Xuandu was already going to be the sect master of the Taiping Sect in a blink of an eye, how long has it been? Many people can't help but speculate in their hearts that this fourth gentleman was expelled from the sect by the old sect master at the beginning, but he did it on purpose? Did he decide to leave the sect after calculating the way back? The Taiping Sect is not a small family, and being the sect master there is more comfortable than Li Yuanying, the sect master, after all, there is no mountain on his head, right?

This is wronged Li Xuandu, he is not a god operator, how could he know that there will be so many things in the future when he left Penglai Island? It can only be said that it is a coincidence, but the most important thing in the world is to speculate on others with the worst thoughts, in the eyes of these people, Li Xuandu is a deep city, far-reaching planning, and a wrist to the sky, and he actually has a little awe of Li Xuandu.

Li Yuanying looked around, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and saw their expressions in his eyes, but the people who could sit here and discuss matters were all old foxes, and no one would rashly write his thoughts on his face, Li Yuanying was destined to be in vain. He pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "I think you already know about the matter, so I won't say anything more." According to the reason, Zifu has been expelled from the old sect master, and whether he is the suzerain of the Taiping Sect or not has nothing to do with our Qingwei Sect, but our Qingwei Sect and the Taiping Sect are both the twelve sects of the righteous path, and they are connected with each other, advancing and retreating together, this is one of them. The second is that the old sect master just did not allow Zifu to act in the name of Qingwei Sect anymore, but did not deny the master-apprentice relationship, from this point of view, although Zifu is not the fourth gentleman of my Qingwei Sect, but it is still the fourth disciple of the old sect master, which has something to do with us. ”
