Chapter 54: Secretly observing
This mountain peak is also called Shangde Peak, and in the lush jungle in the mountain, you can see the cornices from time to time.
Those are the Taoist palaces and fine houses built by Shangdeguan in the mountains.
The place where the guests are received is in the back mountain, some distance from the top of the mountain, is a platform, and the clouds and smoke can be seen. Ji Xiao and Fengyan arrived here and were quickly recognized.
Because important people will be remembered by those who have a view of virtue. What's more, the monk's memory is very good, and Ji Xiao's elegant and dusty temperament is rare even among monks.
The person who greeted Ji Xiao was the first disciple of Chang Gengzi, the master of Shangde Guanguan, Donggaozi. If there is no accident, Dong Gaozi is the next generation of Shangde Guan Master.
He is equivalent to coming to greet Ji Xiao in person as the Lord of Shaoguan.
Many people who don't know Ji Xiao are speculating about who Ji Xiao is, and he actually let the next master of Shangde Guan greet him so ceremoniously.
And Ji Xiao's age looks younger than Dong Gaozi.
Although a practitioner has a knack for keeping his face up, a monk with a little eyesight can roughly observe a person's age by looking at their faces.
So unless Ji Xiao cheats on age, then he is indeed much younger than Dong Gaozi.
Therefore, many people speculated that Ji Xiao should be an important figure in the Four Great Dao Sects, and it was even likely that he was the beloved disciple of an immortal real person.
Some people are secretly envious, some people are secretly jealous, and some people are not convinced, thinking that Ji Xiao may be a little better than them except for his background.
These thoughts were all directed at Ji Liao, so Ji Xiao sensed it.
After cultivating the Taishang Sword Sutra, his spiritual sense is extremely keen, which is a good thing, but there are also troubles.
Just like now, those thoughts covered his flawless Dao heart like dust, which naturally made him not very comfortable.
"The heart of the Tao is like a mirror, and it must be wiped from time to time in order not to stir up dust. Someone said softly, it should be specifically said to Ji Xiao, but Ji Xiao only heard his voice and didn't see him.
"Uncle Ji, what's wrong?" Seeing that Ji Xiao was a little distracted, Dong Gaozi took the initiative to ask.
Calling Ji Xiao his uncle and ancestor, he can be regarded as taking advantage. Because strictly speaking, even the ancestors of Shangdeguan are the younger generations of Dong Xuanzi.
In fact, all the masters in the cultivation world who know Ji Xiao's identity nowadays don't really want to see Ji Xiao. After all, Ji Xiao is the junior brother of Dong Xuanzi, if anyone treats Ji Xiao as a junior, wouldn't it be equivalent to slapping Dong Xuanzi in the face.
If they are equals, if they are immortal real people, they can barely say it, if they are not primordial gods, they will not give Dong Xuanzi face if they have a relationship with Ji Yu's peers.
This is to blame for Dong Xuanzi living too long, and he just boiled away all the monks of the same era.
Ji Xiao replied to Dong Gaozi: "A master talked to me just now. ”
Dong Gaozi said with relief: "Recently, there have indeed been many seniors who have come to cheer on you, maybe some of the seniors are very curious about Uncle Ji, so they take the initiative to talk to you." ”
Ji Xiao smiled and said, "Maybe." ”
Dong Gaozi said casually: "Zhaijiao starts today and ends in forty-nine days, so there are many activities during the period, if Uncle Ji is interested, you can look around, there are important ceremonies, and the juniors will come to inform you." ”
Ji Xiao nodded and said, "If there is any forbidden land in the mountains, you might as well tell me about it, so that I don't enter it by mistake." ”
Dong Gaozi smiled and said: "In the mountains, there is no so-called forbidden land, but if there are some places where there is a legal ban, it may probably be the private land of the middle division commander I sent, if there is no important matter for Uncle Ji, please don't go in." ”
Ji Xiao bowed his head and said, "Got it." ”
Dong Gaozi pointed to a fine house in front of him and said, "Please also ask Uncle Ji to stay here, the place is simple, please forgive me." ”
Ji Xiao said: "Very good, thank you for the hospitality, you have been with me for so long, it's really hard." You're still busy with your own business. ”
Dong Gaozi said: "In this case, I won't bother you, if there is any need, there is a rope at the entrance, pull it and the bell will ring, and there will be a Taoist boy soon, you can tell him the matter, if he can't do it, he will also find someone who can do it." ”
Ji Xiao said: "Okay." ”
Then Dong Gaozi saluted and said goodbye to Ji Liao.
The house is an independent courtyard and there are no outsiders.
Feng Yan couldn't help but sour and said: "The name of the Four Great Dao Sect is easy to use, I used to be a lecturer at Bailu Academy, and I also visited Shangdeguan once, but the place where I live is far worse than yours." ”
Ji Xiao said: "Under the fame, there must be some tiredness, you see that I live here, I am estimated to become famous immediately." ”
Feng Yan said: "This is also true, being famous is easy to get into trouble." ”
Ji Xiao said: "It was Dong Gaozi who accompanied us just now, now let's go shopping by ourselves." ”
Feng Yan said: "You're not afraid of going out in trouble." ”
Ji Xiao said: "Life is in the world, why worry too much, just be comfortable." ”
"Haha, I find it more fun to be around you than before. ”
"But you still want to beat me, don't you? Ji Xiao smiled slightly.
Fengyan couldn't help coughing, this guy is really hard to fathom.
...
...
"Zhao Zhenren, you lost this game of chess. ”
Now the important ceremony of Zhaijiao has not yet begun, so as one of the most important figures in this Zhaijiao conference, Guanhai Zhenren is playing chess with others.
Guanhai Zhenren is also the immortal real person who came out of Shangde Guanli a few years ago.
Opposite him was a friar with a hat.
The light veil covers the face, and there is also an immortal method attached to it, even if the real person who views the sea wants to see the true face of the other party, it is impossible.
"I was distracted for a while, and I made a mistake, but I was slow to treat the sea view friends. Zhao Zhenren smiled.
Guanhai Zhenren said: "I'm on Defeng, I don't know what can make Zhao Zhenren distracted?"
Zhao Zhenren said leisurely: "It's not a figure from your faction, but a guest of yours." ”
Guanhai Zhenren pinched his fingers and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the one, if you want to see him, I will personally invite him to come." ”
Zhao Zhenren said: "No need, I want to continue to observe him secretly." ”
"Haha, he can get into your eyes, it seems that he is really a great character, and I am also interested in him. Guanhai Zhenren said.
Zhao Zhenren smiled faintly and said: "Daoyou is afraid that there is some misunderstanding, I am curious about him, but not because of how good he is, because of other things." ”
"I don't know what's going on?" Guanhai Zhenren said curiously.
"Don't say. ”
...
...
"It looks like someone is watching us. "Wind flue.
Ji Xiao smiled and said, "There are a lot of people who are observing us now, who are you talking about?"
"She seems to be a little hostile to us. Fengyan pointed to the green grass in the distance, the sunset shone on the water, and a palace female cultivator stood by the water, glancing at Ji Xiao and them from time to time.
Ji Xiao said: "Just go up and ask." ”
Fengyan didn't expect Ji Xiao's reaction to be like this.
"This girl, you seem to be a little unpleasant to us, why?"
The palace nun couldn't imagine that Ji Xiao was so direct.
She couldn't help but be stunned, and then said coldly: "Because you...... The companion is ugly. ”
She wanted to say that Ji Xiao was ugly, but looking at Ji Xiao's handsome face, she really couldn't say such a thing, so she simply sprinkled her anger on Fengyan.
