Chapter 981: The Man Behind the Pot

Hearing this, Lie Kou glanced at Lin Ze, as if he was demonstrating, and a bit like showing off, and said with a smug expression: "Senior Brother will definitely not disappoint Senior Brother Zhuang Zhou." ”

Zhuang Zhou's expression was complicated, and he said with a forced smile: "Just let it be, junior brother doesn't have to be too persistent." ”

Lin Ze said sincerely: "Originally, this matter was for the junior brother to do, but now that Senior Brother Lieko is willing to take it, the junior brother is grateful." By the way, there is something that has to be handed over to the senior brother. ”

Lin Ze said as he took out the golden book of luck from his arms: "The junior brother has discussed with Senior Brother Zhuang Zhou before, in order to show the majesty of the Dao Palace, those who come to the banquet this time need to be registered in the golden book. ”

"Now that there is still half a month before the seventh day of the seventh month, if anyone comes, Brother Leko must not forget to persuade them to comply with this rule. ”

Lin Ze didn't know what kind of mentality Lieko had to take on the job of welcoming guests, for him, this was a good thing.

As the saying goes, someone borrows a knife as soon as he wants to kill someone, and someone takes the blame when something happens, how can Lin Ze refuse this kind of good thing?

Lin Ze could almost imagine the picture of Lieko forcing those celestials to be named in the golden book in the name of the Dao Palace, and those celestials hated him to the core.

Even if those people dare to be angry and dare not speak, Leko should not take this opportunity to get closer to those celestial beings.

Stealing chickens doesn't make rice!

The smile on Lieko's face disappeared, and he said in a deep voice: "Dare to ask Senior Brother Zhuang Zhou and Senior Brother Lin Ze, what is the matter with this golden book?"

Lin Ze hurriedly replied: "Senior brother can think that this is a vote, now the Dao Palace has the upper hand in the world of great contention, and for a long time in the future, it will be the Dao Palace that dominates the world." ”

"In order to avoid the resurgence of Confucianism and Buddhism, and then compete with the Taoist Palace, let those celestials who have the ability to change the outcome stand in line in advance. The name of the golden book is to link up part of everyone's luck, so that no one will be capricious. ”

Seeing that Lieko's face was gradually becoming ugly, Lin Ze added: "Senior Brother Lieko, shouldn't he be unwilling to do things for the Dao Palace?"

Legko didn't speak, just looked at Zhuang Zhou with a pleading eye.

Zhuang Zhou's heart softened when he saw this: "Senior brother, do you have to think about this matter in the long run?"

Lin Ze faced Zhuang Zhou and said with a serious face: "Senior brother, the interests of the Dao Palace are above all else, besides, you promised me." ”

Zhuang Zhou thought to himself that it was not right, didn't he say that he was willing and did not force others? He couldn't help but say, "But ......"

Lin Ze said calmly: "It's nothing, Senior Brother Lieko doesn't do it, I will do it for my own junior brother, the Dao Palace can stand for tens of thousands of years, in addition to the saints who stand at the top of the world such as the teacher, there are also many Dao Palace disciples who have worked hard to survive." ”

"There are no ordinary things in the world, and the reason why some people can wait for the flowers to bloom is just that someone carries the weight for them. ”

"For example, junior brother, in order to give the Dao Palace an advantage, I rode the dust, and even lost the destiny of heaven and my luck. ”

After Lin Ze's words, Zhuang Zhou was completely silent.

Zhuang Zhou, who was inclined to be noble by nature, really couldn't be as shameless as Lin Ze, so he could only acquiesce in this matter.

Lin Ze's expression remained unchanged, and he said to Liekou in a quiet tone: "If Senior Brother Liekou thinks that it is inappropriate, this matter will be stopped, and the matter of welcoming guests can be done by Senior Brother." ”

Lieko's face was solemn, and he only hesitated for a moment, and then replied decisively: "Since you can serve the Dao Palace, Liekou has an unshirkable responsibility, Senior Brother Zhuang Zhou, Senior Brother Lin Ze, you two can rest assured, Liekou will definitely handle this matter well." ”

When Zhuang Zhou heard this, he shook his head and closed his eyes, as if he couldn't bear to see Lieko's appearance.

Lin Ze bowed his hand and said with sincerity on his face: "Senior Brother Lieko's contribution and kindness in the Dao Palace, the junior brother will definitely report to the teacher, and he will never let the senior brother pay in vain." ”

Lieko pretended to be angry and said, "Senior brother, am I a disciple who covets the teacher's reward?

Lin Ze pretended to be frightened and said: "No, no, no, don't misunderstand, senior brother has no such intention." ”

Zhuang Zhou saw the exaggerated performance of the two, and suddenly woke up, and his eyes changed a little when he looked at Lieko.

He was originally a person with a very high IQ, but he was reunited with his best friend after a long absence, and he didn't expect to go that way for a while.

Now that he has calmed down, Zhuang Zhou obviously feels that things don't seem to be so simple.

Not to mention that the teacher and him came down from outside the sky, even the three sects have been fighting for the mandate of heaven for a while, and the time when Lieko appeared seems to be a little strange.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Zhou said: "Okay, you two don't fight, Senior Brother Lin Ze, you are not in a good state now, you should spend more time to enlighten the Dao, you should not be immersed in mundane things, go to retreat and cultivate." ”

"Senior Brother Lieko, you have come from afar, you must be a little tired at the moment, it is better to wash up first, have a good rest, and then you and I will discuss together tomorrow. ”

Lin Ze glanced at Lie Kou and replied very simply: "What Senior Brother said is extremely true, Senior Brother will go to retreat and cultivate for the time being. ”

"Senior Brother Lieko, the senior brother has instructed the subordinates to prepare the senior brother's food and living place, and they are waiting outside the hall. ”

After Lin Ze finished speaking, he arched his hand towards the two of them, and strode out of the main hall.

Lieko returned a salute to Lin Ze's back: "Senior brother has a heart." ”

turned around and smiled at Zhuang Zhou: "Senior brother is not tired, you and I haven't seen each other for many years, so we should talk at night." ”

Zhuang Zhou's expression was calm, there was no longer the previous excitement on his face, he shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "No, Senior Brother Lieko, you are tired, you should rest when you are tired, this is natural and humane, and it cannot be reversed." ”

Lie Ko was stunned when he heard this, as the third realm of heaven and man, even if he didn't sleep for a year, he wouldn't have any abnormalities, why was he tired?

Besides, heaven and man have such a special gift, it was originally given by heaven, how can it be regarded as rebellion?

Lie Kou pondered for a moment, and immediately guessed that Zhuang Zhou was suspicious of him, so he said with a smile: "What Senior Brother said is very true, Senior Brother will rest for a day first, and come back tomorrow to ask Senior Brother for advice." ”

"Since the senior brother can break through the barriers and successfully set foot in the saint realm, there must be many avenues to teach the junior brother. I also hope that the senior brother will not cherish himself when the time comes. ”

In order to dispel Zhuang Zhou's doubts, Lieko took the initiative to expose his careful thoughts.

Zhuang Zhou's face was much better when he heard this, and he said slowly: "Senior Brother Liekou can rest assured, no matter what the junior brother wants to ask, Brother Fool will definitely teach you." ”

Le Koha laughed and said: "The junior brother thanked the senior brother in advance, don't disturb the senior brother's enlightenment, and the junior brother will retire." ”

Seeing that the effect of dispelling doubts was very good, Lieko accepted it when he saw that it was good, and offered his farewell.

Zhuang Zhouwen said: "Senior brother walk slowly. ”

Lieko saluted Zhuang Zhou and strode out of the hall.

Immediately, a guard stepped forward: "But Liekou Daxian, Your Majesty arranged for the little one to wait here and take Daxian to the mansion to rest." ”

Lekowen said, "Please let this little friend lead the way." ”

The guard stretched out his hand and gestured, "Great Immortal, please." ”

The two left one after the other.

Zhuang Zhou looked at the direction in which Lieko left, and sighed slightly: "The world of great contention, the eventful autumn!"
