Taking advantage of the clear sky on this day, Xie Lingyun led the team to officially set off, and this time there were mainly four places to go: Gusu, Jiaxing, Wuzhen, and Taizhou.

In addition to Taizhou is farther away, the location of the three famous temples is not far from Jinling, even if you don't need to move the immortal house, you can reach it in a day or two by hurrying by horse, of course, the land of the south of the Yangtze River, it is faster to take a boat.

However, everyone still used the immortal mansion to take over, and they were not in a hurry to hurry, although Chaotian Palace was in great need of manpower, and Xie Lingyun also wanted to solve this matter quickly and return to the mountain, but the fact that the person in charge of the sect and the head of the sect was determined was sloppy, and he didn't want to walk out of another Ziyun old way from under his hands.

So he slowed down his pace, while touring the mountains and rivers, while visiting various cities and villages to inquire, to see what kind of image the Taoist leaders on that list were in the hearts of the people, so that they could choose the most suitable candidate.

From Jinling to Jinling, from Jinling to Jinkui, and then to Gusu.

Everyone walked along the way, enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers along the way, the dragon girl, Mingzhu and other five girls of course had a very happy time, Xie Lingyun also enjoyed a long time of leisure, indulged in the mountains and rivers, chanting poems and songs, splashing ink as endowment, and there are beauties on the side, smiling and coquettish, really happy like a fairy, not only nourishing the mind, but also enhancing the body.

Naturally, the matter of Weifu's private interview did not fall, and when the investigation of the land of Gusu was completed, he basically knew the candidates for the head of the three famous views.

Along the way, when encountering the people's suffering, everyone can also help, and if they can't help, they have to find a way to help, he has to preach more, and now his sexual skills are like a castle in the air, if he doesn't practice, he will soon fall down and fall very badly.

This is a bitter thing for those bad ghosts, and in the end, they were either blown up by Ah Man's punch, or they were hooked away by the Divine Pond Spirit Pill, and they can no longer be a disaster for the world.

When leaving the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou, the Xuanmiao Temple, the Xuanming Temple, and the Xiuzhen Temple all have new heads, namely the Baoying Dao Chief, the Yinqiu Dao Chief, and the Crane Year Dao Chief.

Their life and cultivation are not as strong as their predecessors, but they are superior in terms of mind, and they are all people who take benevolence, righteousness and morality seriously, and they are really practicing the way of immortals and Buddhas. It cannot be said that they are saints who do not care about fame and fortune, at least they have righteousness and integrity, and they also have a good reputation among the people

In addition, they all strongly supported the Xie family, and the Crane Year Dao Elder was even locked up in the mountain gate because he opposed the one-star old road to go to Yecheng Mountain to make trouble; There is also Baoying Daochang, but it is Wang Yizhi's master.

Don't look at Wang Yiyi's stubbornness, in Gusu, he actually has the reputation of "impatience for justice and righteousness", especially some gamblers like to borrow money from him, he mostly borrows without asking the reason, and he will not collect the money.

There is also a legend of him on the rivers and lakes, once there was a wandering Taoist who ran to the Xuanmiaoguan and sold him what "strong pills", saying that before the battle, eating this pill will make you feel a hundred times more energetic and have great strength, which is no less than the existence of the elixir of immortality. Others could see at a glance that it was fake, it was just the most ordinary Wushi San, and eating it was harmful to the body, so he bought it for a thousand gold

Someone asked him, "The pill is fake, that person is a liar who mixes your money, do you know the way?" The others asked, "Then why do you buy it for Lu, and why do you want to lose money like this?"

"I have to be a loser, won't an undefeated family bury the talent of the Langya Wang family?" he said.

Xie Lingyun and others also met Wang Yizhi on this trip, and they went to a youth gathering together.

And when he went to Xuanmingguan in Jiaxing, Li Chenling warmly welcomed them with his sick body, he kept apologizing to Xie Lingyun, and kept saying that he was wrong, and he shouldn't believe his cousin Li Xiubin's words, and now he understands that it is Li Xiubin's fault, and hopes that Xie Lingyun can forgive him. Xie Lingyun waited, listened and observed, whether it was true or not, and he would know the truth in the future.

The season entered the beginning of autumn, and it has been nearly a month since leaving Jinling, and everyone finally arrived in Tiantai County, Taizhou, and Tongbai Palace is on Tiantai Mountain.

But just like before, after finding a secluded green mountain and parking the immortal house, everyone came to the county seat without any fanfare, and first did a micro-service investigation.

Tiantai County is actually far from the bustling and lively Jinling, the houses are low, and there are not many pedestrians on the streets, but they are really conspicuous when they walk together in a group of six people, and there are five stunning girls. Fortunately, after coaxing before, Huanghuang was willing to go into the cornucopia when he entered the city, otherwise he would not be able to serve a micro-service.

When they came to the relatively dilapidated streets of the city, everyone picked those poor streets and alleys to walk, because the poorer and more illiterate the people, these people who needed the most help to repair the door, also had the most right to speak.

At the mouth of the alley at one end of the strange alley, seeing these strange figures coming, several thin yellow dogs and black dogs barked, retreated again and again, grinning with fierce faces, as if warning them something

"Huh. Xie Lingyun looked at them with a smile, and his friendly intentions were conveyed through the divine light, and several dogs suddenly whined a few times, and then walked away with their tails wagging lightly.

Ah Man snorted: "These dogs really don't know how to write dead words, even I dare to bark, the tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs-" Xie Lingyun said he: "That's it, how about you make a vow with this sentence?" Ah Man was in no mood to joke with a cold look: "Die." The girls said thoughtfully: "Those dogs are very spiritual, so they dare to bark at us, I think they should be opened by people." ”

"Can dogs open the light?" Mingzhu was surprised, after all, there is no such thing in Penglai, and it seems that there is no such thing in Jinling

You Miao nodded and said: "I have seen a lot of them in southern Xinjiang, in fact, it is Kaizhi, and there are ...... who feed dogs and eat human flesh to raise strong dogs."

"Let's go and ask the owner what's going on. Xie Lingyun said, there must be something strange about this matter. 、

Everyone walked out of this strange alley, only to see the dogs walking back to the courtyard of a chaimen thatched house, the houses in this area are so simple, the people are also dressed in coarse clothes, and even some people have yellow faces and thin muscles, and their lives are not very good.

Hearing the barking of dogs, an old woman came out of the house, holding a wooden cane, with a wrinkled face. When she saw their group of people who were not richly dressed, but they knew that they were extraordinary at a glance, she was so shocked that she almost fell

Xie Lingyun stepped up and supported him, and hurriedly asked, "The old lady is okay, right?"

"Mo Mo Si ......" The old woman's speech was not very flexible, and she spoke Taizhou dialect, she said a lot of excitement and fear, but everyone didn't quite understand, and it was hard to figure out what she was saying, "My son and daughter-in-law are all out of the house, and there is only one old man in the family.

Xie Lingyun asked her about the dogs, and the old woman immediately barked: "Master Du, Master Du"

Her tone was full of respect and worship, and her old face smiled, revealing her jagged yellow teeth, and then after talking for a long time, everyone understood what she meant: "Those dogs have been enlightened by the Taoists of the Master Sect, but they are smart, and their ability to take care of the home is higher than that of the dogs of large families, and they can catch mice." ”

Everyone looked at each other, Xie Lingyun was already frowning slightly, there were actually believers of the Master Sect in a place like Tiantai County

Tiantai County is not simple, because Tiantai Mountain is a big mountain, and due to various reasons, there are two ancestral gardens on the mountain, on one side is the ancestral court Tongbai Palace of the Southern Sect of Daomen, and on the other side is the ancestral court Guoqing Temple of the Tiantai Sect of Buddhism

But under the noses of the two great ancestral courts, the Ming Master Sect has quietly developed followers and established prestige among the poor people.

In fact, it's not just here in Tiantai County, they have found this situation all the way, the farther away from Jinling, the more it is, the Ming Master Sect firmly occupies a place in the hearts of the people at the bottom

It's hard to say that this is a bad thing, because the reason why this is the case is also because the Master Sect has done one good thing after another and saved it back, so countless people have benefited, such as curing diseases, removing ghosts, and eliminating disasters...... There are also reading and literacy, learning Taoism and practice.

At this time, the old woman said a lot, it turned out that her family was haunted a few years ago, and she couldn't live anymore, but fortunately she got the Taoist of the Master Sect to catch ghosts, and cast a spell on those dogs, saying that there will be no ghosts to make trouble in the future, and then it turned out that this was the case, her family's feng shui has since become better, and her son also asked for a daughter-in-law.

As she spoke, the neighbors around her surrounded her, vying to tell the distinguished guests about the prestige of Master Du and the deeds of Master Mingzong, and the look of fanaticism and gratitude was even more than that of the people of Jinling to Chaotian Palace.

"Tongbai Palace, don't you care about Guoqing Temple?" Xie Lingyun asked with a frown.

"No matter. The old woman said repeatedly.

Soon everyone understood that for the two ancestral courts, their affairs were just some sesame mung beans, not enough to alarm Wen Qingfeng and other young disciples of the inner sect, and naturally they would not attract the attention of Ziyun Laodao, if they even had to ask and solve these things one by one, then they didn't need to cultivate, they didn't have to do other things, and they were guaranteed to be on the road all year round.

So something like the old woman's house is haunted, and it's not a terrible ghost, just go to Tongbai Palace to find someone from the outer door to open a few spiritual runes and post them back.

Generally speaking, this can indeed be solved, but sometimes it can't be solved, Tongbai Palace has no follow-up mechanism, the people have been by the grandeur of the ancestral court, but also a little afraid and angry, how dare to entangle, then consider yourself unlucky, and at this time, the Master Sect will often come forward, of course, you can get the gratitude of the people

"That's a good thing, isn't it?" Mingzhu asked. Since there are people benefiting, it should be a good thing, but Yu Miao frowned, Chun'er also had suspicions, and the dragon girl thought of the hypocritical Sun En and the three, and shook her head: "I always feel that something is wrong......

Ah Man looked at the dogs in the distance, and also wondered: "Well, I feel this way too, they even dare to bark at me, it's so wrong"

Fortunately, the old woman and other people also couldn't understand their accents, otherwise they would definitely be angry and chase away the guests, but doubts had already arisen.

Xie Lingyun glanced at the female envoys, signaling that he would discuss it later, he couldn't feel at ease, the actions of Sun En and the three of them obviously exposed the great ambition of the Master Sect, after this period of contact with the people in various places, as well as the things in front of him, he suddenly had a feeling: "What the Master Sect wants is not as simple as becoming a big sect of the Fu Sect, they are determined to ...... The world?"

Since this thought has been born all his life, he himself feels a little ridiculous, but is it impossible? In his heart, he couldn't answer himself and said "impossible", but thought in another direction, if Sun En really became the fast son-in-law of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, coupled with the further rapid development of popularity and power, if he colluded with the Huan clan, and even had the power of alien races such as the Dragon Palace, then ......

His heart couldn't help but skip a beat, fortunately Sun Tai died, and Sun En and the three of them ...... He asked the people, "Do you know that there is a person in the Ming Master Sect named Sun En, Sun Lingxiu?"

Hearing this name, the old woman and the others immediately smiled, and they also had a long-lasting reverence for it, but everyone didn't expect that it would be so coincidental, the ghost of the old woman's family was brought by Sun En.

Xie Lingyun immediately felt that it was too suspicious, no matter how kind the Ming Master Sect was, to cure a little ghost, did he really need to dispatch a core disciple like Sun En?

"Old lady, what is the situation with your haunted house?" he asked.

The old woman said again at the moment, the ghost was in a hurry, nothing happened at home, and there was no trouble, and suddenly she hit the ghost for no reason, and every night she had a nightmare, and her son was like this, and the ghost said what was there to seek revenge, and it scared people to live in peace. And then as I just said, thanks to Sun Daochang.

"Hey, don't ask. When Ah Man heard this, he had a disdainful smile on his face, "Obviously, that ghost is Sun En's whole up This guy is really calculating, making trouble and settling it himself, it's so calculating."

"Lord, although this area is poor, there is no yin energy, and ghosts do not like to come to this kind of place. Yu Miao looked around and said: "On the contrary, the yang energy here is very strong, and that kind of little ghost will be uncomfortable when he stays by himself, how can he have the strength to disturb people's dreams?"

Xie Lingyun nodded silently, most of the time, so what about the other good things that the Ming Master Sect has done? Could it be the same thing? He didn't dare to assert it, but he knew that the Ming Master Sect was really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he had to make it clear to Uncle Zhong after he went back, if the Ming Master Sect continued to develop like this, it would very likely cause a big disaster.

But at present, Tongbai Palace is obviously more responsible, what kind of arrogance is that? Can it ⊥ not see a thief running in its front yard?

After bidding farewell to the old woman and other people, Xie Lingyun and his party walked around Tiantai County again, investigating the reputation of the Taoist leaders in Tongbai Palace, so it was two days.

In the early morning of this day, they officially came to Tiantai Mountain, just saw the majestic and verdant mountains, the swaying grass and trees on the roadside, and they were far from the Shanmenfang sign of Tongbai Palace, and they had already seen a large group of Tongbai Taoist people-

"Coming, coming......" When they saw them, the Taoists were chaotic for a while, and immediately laughed, pretended to be serious, or had hidden anger, and greeted them one after another, "Little Xie Daochang, welcome to our Tiantai Mountain, hehehe"

The contrast in the posture of these originally invincible Ancestral Courtyard Daoists at this time is really disgraceful, but they can't be blamed, that young man is someone personally ordered by Lu Zu, what else can he do if he doesn't stutter?

These people who came were all a little ambitious, they wanted to take on some important positions in Tongbai Palace, change their current status, and some even dreamed of being in charge, they all agreed that as long as Xie Lingyun was happy, it would be beneficial

"How do you know that I'm here?" Xie Lingyun stopped and asked, waiting for them to come up, expressionless, and asked quietly, "Who asked you to come?"

"Hehe, don't hide it from Daoist Xie, we recently heard that you came to the rooftop, so we are at the foot of the mountain every day, waiting for your arrival. A Taoist squeezed up and hurriedly smiled. Immediately, another gray-robed middle-aged Taoist smiled and said: "We came by ourselves, and now there is no head on the mountain, and everyone is eager to determine the new head ......."

At this time, the girls suddenly glared at each other, and saw a disgusting face, but it was Yuan Yuxing

"Ha Lu Ha Xie brother" Yuan Yuxing walked with a smile, looking like everyone was very familiar, as if none of the previous grudges had happened, "You are finally here, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, I have prepared some wine and food on the mountain, you must let me do the friendship of the landlord this time."

Xie Lingyun was stunned, I really don't know if the other party has amnesia, or if he has amnesia, have they reconciled? But as the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, although Yuan Yuxing is so disgusting, he just sneered, "Good intentions." ”

But I didn't expect Yuan Yuxing to be a little reluctant, walked up, and wanted to swim with his arms, Le He smiled and said: "What are you doing outside like this, Brother Xie, I know that we used to have a little misunderstanding, it was just the fault of the young man's heart, and then I thought about it, and I felt more and more admiration for you, and I was ashamed that I had the heart to admit my mistakes and correct them, and asked Brother Xie to give me a chance." ”

"If you change it yourself, what's the matter with us?" Aman still disdainful, "Don't you just want to get the title of a future head candidate?" Tell you, it can't be just like you, you are not qualified" She likes to reach out and slap the smiling person in the face.

"Hehe......" Yuan Yuxing's face turned red, but his qi cultivation kung fu had made great progress, although he was watched by hundreds of fellow Daoists, he maintained a well-behaved appearance, "You misunderstood, misunderstood, I just hope to get your forgiveness, and my heart is better than ......"

"Save it, that person named Li Chenling has already been one step ahead of you and has said these. Ah Man looked at the crowd and mocked: "Where is that person named Wen Qingfeng?"

Yuan Yuxing replied, "Senior Brother Wen, he didn't come ......"

Tongbai Palace is very large, with thousands of people, and the hundred people who came are actually a small number, all of whom are people who see the wind and make camels, and they are either scolding or reprimanding Wen Qingfeng for not knowing the etiquette.

"Alas. Xie Lingyun shook his head and sighed, didn't say anything, and walked straight to the mountain in front of him, Tongbai Palace has fallen into this, it is really heart-wrenching.
