Chapter 254: It's already eating the Sword Sect's meal
In all fairness, if Xu Beiyou usually says this, it will inevitably be a little old-fashioned, but in terms of the vicissitudes of life that Xu Beiyou has now conjure, it is reasonable and complements each other.
When Xu Beiyou heard Li Shentong's words, he couldn't help but think of his ambition at his age, which had nothing to do with saving the world, and he didn't know what the Sword Sect Daomen was, let alone what he wanted to be the tenth person in the world. So he said that Li Shentong was more ambitious than himself.
People will change, especially young people, Xu Beiyou never knew what the world was, what was the righteousness of the family and the country, at first he just wanted to be a very empty "human master", until the master died, he took over the burden of the Sword Sect from the master's body, which became to inherit the master's will and revitalize the Sword Sect. Later, he came to a very high position, and he has traveled a lot of places, experienced many things, and met many people, for the common people in the world, he can't be as indifferent as many older generations, he feels that he should do something, just as Wen Zhenggong in the Great Chu period said, the poor are good for themselves, and the rich are good for the world.
At this moment, a Taoist pushed the door and walked into the inn.
Everyone in the lobby of the inn just glanced up and then retracted their gaze, unconcerned, now the most important thing in Huzhou is the Taoist people, unless it is a real person wearing a black robe, otherwise you don't have to care too much, this Taoist looks about thirty years old, wearing an ordinary blue Taoist robe, not to mention any big real people, I'm afraid that even the inner disciple is not counted, maybe it is an ordinary Taoist temple, take this opportunity to come to Huzhou to fish in troubled waters, naturally not worthy of the attention of everyone in the inn.
The Taoist was indifferent to the many scrutiny in the inn lobby, and after a slight pause to look around, he went straight to the table in the corner and asked, "This place is reserved for me?"
This table is Zhang Zhengzong's Sifang Eight Immortals Table, Xu Beiyou, Li Shentong, and Zhang Yuping each happened to occupy one side of the table, and there was one side left.
Xu Beiyou didn't speak, Zhang Yuping stretched out her hand and smiled: "Please." โ
So this Taoist sat opposite Zhang Yuping, and Xu Beiyou and Li Shentong were on the left and right.
After the little-known Taoist sat down, he asked softly, "Zhang Yuping, didn't you say that you and I would meet alone, and who are the two of them?"
This sentence is equivalent to asking face-to-face, but Zhang Yuping is still calm after hearing this, first got up and asked the shopkeeper for a bowl of rice, and then said with a smile: "These two are naturally not ordinary people, they have their own reasons to see you, and it can even be said that they can show more sincerity." โ
The Taoist laughed at it, although it was a question, but he was not half distracted and impetuous, obviously he was excellent at cultivating qi, and sat on the bench with his back straight, his hands pressed on his knees, and waited patiently.
Xu Beiyou had already finished eating, and at this time he was holding the bowl of inferior tea and taking small sips, as if the cup of tea in his hand was not a starry sky with a few pennies, but a good Longjing in front of the Ming Dynasty.
The Taoist glanced at him before, but he couldn't see the bottom line, and he couldn't help but show a little dignified. Xu Beiyou was indifferent to this, and after drinking a bowl of tea, he began to close his eyes and concentrate.

Although the difference between the two in terms of age is not too much, and they can be regarded as characters of the same generation, they have no intersection, in the final analysis, it is because Xu Beiyou's climb is too fast, and before the crown, he hibernated in the northwest, and his nationality is unknown and no one knows. In the three years that are not long or short, Xu Beiyou still intersected with his peers in the first two years, but in the third year, Xu Beiyou looked at it, and as far as his eyes could see, there were all the older figures such as Dust Ye, Xiao Shen, and Bingchen, and there was no one of his peers who could be compared with him.
And Cangyun's life deeds are quite intriguing, aside from the special case of Zhiyun, among the twelve disciples of the Taoist sect who teach Qiuye, in terms of power, it is naturally Tianyun, Wuyunsuo, and Baiyunzi who are the most powerful; Whether it is the imperial court or the family clan, since ancient times, the heirs have been nothing more than four kinds: Lichang, Liyan, Lixian, and Liai, and the twelve people are all descendants of Autumn Leaves, and it doesn't matter what they are. If you say that Lichang is long, Tianyun is naturally the most; if you say Lixian, there are dark clouds and white clouds; if you say Liai, there is a Qi Xianyun who is rumored to be the first woman to teach, and there is a Lingyun at the worst. No matter how you look at it, there is no possibility that the seven will inherit the leadership of the sect.
Seven people knew that there was no hope of teaching the real person to the throne, so they each sought a way out early, some went to the Dharma Palace, some went to the Shen Penal Division, some went to make up the heavens, some went to the Medicine Master Palace, in addition to the Demon Suppression Palace, there is basically one person in each of the major palaces, so the seven people were nicknamed the seven sons of the palace by the people in the Taoist Gate behind their backs.
Cangyun ranked last among the seven, and the palace he went to was also the most secluded Daozang Hall in the Dao Gate. In the eyes of many people in the Daomen, he is a taciturn person, for more than ten years, he has been reading the ten thousand volumes of the Daozang in the Daozang Palace, he has never taken the initiative to go down the mountain to enter the world, nor has he ever been rumored to fight with others, even if last year's first disciple dispute almost affected the entire Daomen, the various disciples of the sect have stood in line, Qi Xianyun was plotted, Lingyun disregarded his own safety and spoke up, only he did not say much, let alone do anything, not even stepped into the Yuqing Hall half a step, still hiding in the Daozang Hall to see his ten thousand volumes of Daozang.
But today, at this critical moment of rapid changes in the general situation of the world, he took the initiative to leave the Daozang Palace, left the Xuandu, and came to Huzhou to meet the three members of the Sword Sect.
The steaming rice was brought up, and the grains were distinct, and Cangyun took out the chopsticks with some blackened chopsticks from the chopsticks bucket on the table, and began to chew slowly.
Zhang Yuping said with a smile: "It seems that you are still willing to eat our Sword Sect's meal." โ
Cang Yun ate most of the bowl of rice in one go, looked up at Zhang Yuping, and said indifferently: "Eat the food of the Sword Sect, you won't smash the pot of the Sword Sect, and I hope that the sect master of the generation will rest assured, but the identities of these two still need you to give an explanation as soon as possible." โ
Zhang Yuping looked at the young woman, who was actually a woman who had experienced the world, and had already passed the age of being self-willed, and said with a light smile: "Why did the Sword Sect lie to you?"
Cang Yun put the chopsticks in his hand horizontally on the edge of the bowl, "The means of the Sword Sect, although I have not been taught, but I have already seen it, when the four of us entered the Dao Gate together, decades have passed, and the other three people except me have died, except for one who died because of an accident, the other two died at the hands of the Sword Sect, as for why the Sword Sect killed them, you all know, so I don't need to say more." โ
Zhang Yuping said in a calm tone: "I remember that these two people, seeing the prosperity of the Daomen, did not want to continue to be disciples of the Sword Sect, but they forgot, who worked hard to cultivate them? If it weren't for the Sword Sect, how could they worship the Daomen? Don't talk about the grievances of the sect, just talk about being a man, eating the food of the Sword Sect but smashing the pot of the Sword Sect, if such a person doesn't die, who will die?"
