In the afternoon of this day, Ji Ruochen stood on the top of Taichang Peak, facing the abyss in front of him, looking at the clouds in the sky like a sea, and his heart was like a tide.

It's just because he has already seen Jingxiao Zhenren.

When Ji Ruochen came to Taixuan Peak, Jingxiao Zhenren had just had lunch and was drinking tea in the garden while playing chess with **Lan Yi. Seeing Ji Ruochen walking into the garden, Jing Xiao Zhenren immediately got up and greeted with a smile: "It turned out that Ruochen was here." Okay, if you're willing to come back. Come and sit down and try your wife's tea, it's not so easy to drink!"

Jing Xiaozhen's black hair turned into snow, and the skin that used to be like a jade baby is now in the ditches, and the steep and straight body has also turned into a rickety dragon bell. Hugh wants to say that the true yuan aura, today's Jingxiao real people are afraid that they are even weaker than ordinary mortals. Only from his calm and indifferent bearing, a little bit of the heroic posture of the past can be vaguely seen.

Before coming, Ji Ruochen already knew that Jing Xiao Zhenren's humanity had been completely lost, but he still stayed for a full moment before he concluded that the white-haired and cloudy old man in front of him was the unparalleled Jingxiao Zhenren in the past.

Thinking about the bits and pieces of Jingxiao's real education in the past five years, Ji Ruochen only felt that a big stone had fallen on his chest, and he was so stuffy that he couldn't say a word.

When Jing Xiao saw it, he smiled, pulled Ji Ruochen to the stone table and sat down, and poured him a cup of tea with his own hands. The pot is a purple clay pot, with only three cups. But with such a small teapot and such a simple action of pouring tea, Jing Xiao Zhenren's hands trembled a little, and a few drops of tea were splashed outside the cup.

Ji Ruochen lowered his head and looked at the stone table and silently picked up the teaglass. His hands trembled even more than Jing Xiao's real person, and he almost spilled the entire cup of tea on the stone table.

He couldn't control the expression on his face and had to lower his head. Over there, ** Lan suddenly covered his face with his sleeves, and did not say hello to Ji Ruochen, he got up hurriedly and ran into the house.

Jing Xiao Zhenren looked at the direction of ** Lan's departure, sighed, shook his head a little helplessly and smiled: "Your master, you still can't see it like this, it's really been in vain for more than forty years." She is like this, so how can I rest assured that Taixuan Peak will be put in charge of her? Alas, it is better to choose another junior brother. ”

Jing Xiao Zhenren looked at Ji Ruochen again, looked him up and down for a long time, and then smiled: "I'm dizzy now, I can't see your aura true yuan clearly, but seeing your current demeanor, obviously the harvest of Luoyang's trip is not small, this is too clear Xuansheng realm, it's almost complete, right?"

Ji Ruochen replied in a low voice: "It's already eight points of fire." ”

Jing Xiao Zhenren nodded and said, "Sure enough, it is terrifying." Ruochen, the things I care about in my life are, firstly, the great plan of this sect, and secondly, Yin Yin and your master. Now Yin Yin is out, and his whereabouts are unknown. She has a bad temper and no experience, so I'm worried. If it's convenient for you to go down the mountain this time, stop by on the way to visit her. ”

Ji Ruochen hurriedly comforted: "Jingxiao Zhenren don't worry, as far as I know, Yin Yin should be taken back to the Endless Sea with Tsing Yi now." ”

It's just that there is no confidence in saying this. Since the shopkeeper and his wife didn't even recognize him at that time, they would not take any care of Tsing Yi Yin Yin. As for the second daughter being taken back to the Endless Sea, it was just his personal speculation based on the words of the shopkeeper and his wife. Ji Ruochen faintly felt that it was impossible for the shopkeeper and his wife not to recognize him, but they were by nature like this, and they would scare him before they would give up. Extrapolating from this, Yin Yin and Tsing Yi should not have a big event.

Jing Xiao Zhenren observed his words and looks, and naturally knew his thoughts, so he sighed and said: "I am already in the last years of the wind and candle, and now even ordinary people are far inferior, it is estimated that the remaining life is only one or two years, and I will no longer be able to take care of Yin Yin in the future." This child has a strong temperament and has never suffered hardships, so I am afraid that grievances will be indispensable in the future. She and you can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, if you don't give up, take care of her more on my behalf. ”

Ji Ruochen was shocked when he heard this, and said, "How can you only have two years left in your life?"

Speaking of his own life and death, Jing Xiao Zhenren became relaxed and said with a smile: "I should have been in a situation where the gods were destroyed, but fortunately, I was rescued by the Ziwei Sect Sect, and I picked up a life." If you're lucky, you'll be able to leave some long-cherished wisdom in the next reincarnation. ”

The two talked a few more words, and seeing that Jing Xiaozhen's spirit was already a little weak, Ji Ruochen immediately got up and said goodbye.

Ji Ruochen stood on the edge of the cliff, thinking of this, he only sighed.

At this time, the sea of clouds in front of him suddenly waved, and a vicious wind rushed towards him, and the whistling sound almost swept him under the cliff. There was no light around him, and his feet were immediately nailed to the edge of the cliff, and he didn't move a little at the pull of the evil wind.

The evil wind comes and goes quickly, and it has disappeared in the blink of an eye. Ji Ruochen stood in place, the glow of the skin around his body condensed but did not dissipate, and only after a moment did it slowly turn dull. He sighed secretly, his Xuansheng realm was about to be full, and the treasure light in his body overflowed, as long as anyone who had a little Taoism could see it. But this scene, Jingxiao real people can't see it anymore.

His heart was in turmoil, Gu Qing, Tsing Yi, Yin Yin, the real people in the sect, the shopkeeper couple, Shang Qiushui Ji Bingxian and other fellow disciples, Qi Immortals, Dissociation Recipes, Shenzhou Qi Luck Map, or people or things, all came one after another, and they all pressed on his heart, so that he couldn't breathe.

Everyone in the world is good.

When he first went to Xixuan Mountain, he thought the same.

At that time, he only cultivated the three halal tips, and this life was worry-free and happy. Who knows that as the Tao deepens, the troubles increase day by day, and even think about the danger of life and death every day. No matter which school a person in the path of cultivation is trained from, if the path reaches the Shangqing realm of the Three Pure Formulas, he is expected to maintain his long-cherished relationship in reincarnation and hope to make a breakthrough in the next life. Therefore, the matter of death and life is really more important to cultivators than ordinary mortals.

The road was originally difficult.

Jing Xiao was unharmed, and Gu Qing was pierced by the blue mangs of the Yin Feng!

Ji Ruochen suddenly smiled bitterly, and realized that he could no longer leave everything as he originally thought, and quietly went down the mountain to find a quiet place to live a rich life.

Qingxu ......

Ji Ruochen silently recited these two words several times in his heart before heading towards the Taishang Daode Palace.

When Ji Ruochen entered the hall, Ziyang Zhenren was sitting in front of the pattern table and playing chess alone, showing that he had been waiting for him for a long time. However, Ziyang Zhenren did not blame him, and simply explained the next thing and let him prepare on his own.

Ji Ruochen was always in the place of death and life, and he didn't talk much, but when he received the order, he didn't say a word, and left on his own with a lot of heart.

Shicai Ziyang Zhenren said that Xu Zekai had fallen into the hands of the imperial court, and most of them were no longer fortunate at this time. Li An, the king of Luoyang Shou, has fallen to the imperial court and the Zhenwuguan line, this person is very important to the future plan of the Daode Sect, and he must win it back at all costs. This time, the secular affairs are very important and difficult, and many factions are bound to intervene in the secular world, and the world will become a great chaos. Ji Ruochen had dealt with King Shou before, and he had also practiced some mundane affairs with Xu Zekai, so he had to go to Luoyang again.

This time, Ji Ruochen is no longer going down the mountain alone, and ten disciples of the Daode Sect will be stationed in Luoyang one after another, thinking that they will be aided. These disciples, regardless of their rank, will be deployed by Ji Ruochen. In addition, the head of Yunfeng Dao will also arrive in Luoyang soon to provide guidance and assistance.

Ji Ruochen didn't expect that he would take on the responsibility of commanding, but since he had Yunfeng to help, he was also a lot more determined.

He did not stay long, and after three days he went down the mountain.

On this trip to Luoyang, he also had to visit the whereabouts of Tsing Yi and Yin Yin by the way, and he really didn't want to delay.

As soon as he walked out of the mountain gate, Ji Ruochen suddenly stopped and looked back. Next to the mountain gate, a cluster of flowers still trembled slightly, and the person who should have stood behind the flowers had already left. Only the faint hookah, which has not yet dispersed, quietly reveals her identity.

"Smoke?" Ji Ruochen stood in the wind for a moment before turning around and going down the mountain.

He never looked back.

After arriving in Luoyang a day later, Ji Ruochen realized that he had no clue about the task of this trip. How did Shouwang Li Ang stand on the side of the imperial court?

According to Xu Zekai, when Li An killed his brother and took the throne, he made great contributions. Although Li Annai is a ruthless person, he is not a fool, and handing over Xu Zekai not only lost a big help, but also provoked opponents such as Daodaozong. No matter how strict the Luoyang palace is, it is still like flat ground in the eyes of the monks with advanced Taoism, so isn't it that you can come if you want to, and you can go if you want to?

If Li Anken did this, it must be the benefits that the imperial court and Zhenwuguan promised him that he could not refuse. The question is, what is the benefit? What does Li An want? I don't know what Li Anxin is thinking, and how to let Ji Ruochen do it? This lure can't be used.

And Ang Lee is so hostile to the Daode Sect, obviously relying on his own safety. At the very least, you shouldn't be afraid that a certain Daode Sect disciple will attack at night and take his head in his sleep. If you want to prevent the raid of the Daode Sect, it is not something that the True Martial Arts Concept can do, presumably there is someone else behind Li An. No matter who it is, for the time being, this forced word is not very useful. And even if Li An is tied, can Ji Ruochen really kill Li An?

No matter how powerful the Daode Sect is, killing a person like Li An has to be considered again and again.

Coercion and temptation are not feasible, and how do you want Ji Ruochen to do it? Looking at Luoyang, which has survived a catastrophe and has come back to life, Ji Ruochen can't help but smile bitterly, he doesn't even know how to see Li An, whether he goes directly to the door to post it, or climbs over the wall in the middle of the night?

When Ji Ruochen was at a loss, a big mansion next to him suddenly opened the corner door, and a scribe stumbled out of it, and then two shy and bulging bellies rushed out of the door, and a person in thin housekeeping clothes walked out of the middle, and scolded the scribe: "You useless sour talent, don't open your eyes to take a good look at what kind of place this is, just because you also want to cheat and eat and drink in Jiafu? Hey! Isn't this pierced by me to pierce the cowhide? What else do you say that through your hands, the little boy will be able to understand the general situation, identify the situation in the world, and become a material for the world." Hmph, if it weren't for today's good mood, with your mouthful of firewood arguing about the government and politics, you should have been thrown to Luoyang Mansion, and you would have taken off three layers of skin if you didn't die! Get out of here!"

The scribe snorted and got up, first dressed well, Fang glanced at the butler angrily, and said, "I have the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, but I have to temporarily bend to the west seat because of bad luck." Hmph, you wait for the turbidity to be blinded, and I don't know what kind of opportunity you missed today! Anyway, I won't reason too much with you and others, it's really insulting to be noisy!"

The housekeeper was furious and shouted: "Poor sour, don't get out quickly, be careful that I will take you down and send you to Luoyang Mansion, and the forty boards will break your legs!"

Ji Ruochen stood across the street, only feeling that the scribe's voice was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while.

When the scribe saw the two fat men rolling up their sleeves and tucking their clothes, revealing their two thick arms, he was about to come up and move, and hurriedly shouted: "The sage has a word, the gentleman does not move his mouth!

He shouted, hiding his face with his sleeves, and hurried across the street.

When the housekeeper saw that he was hiding in embarrassment, he couldn't help laughing, summoned back the two servants, and went back to the house triumphantly.

The scribe looked back, and said with hatred to himself: "There are no beads in the eyes, hum!"

It's just that he walked in a hurry, didn't notice that there was someone in front of him, and hit his head on a person, and couldn't help but take three steps back. The scribe raised his eyebrows and was about to have a seizure, but the person who hit him on the other side arched his hand and said, "Mr. Ji, don't come unharmed?"

The scribe was taken aback, glanced at the person opposite, and saw that the man was very young, magnificent, and extraordinary, so he put away his contempt and said, "How do you know that my surname is Ji?"

Ji Ruochen said with a smile: "Mr.'s surname is Ji, his name is the world, he knows everything, he takes the things of the world, and he knows everything." ”

Ji Tianxia was taken aback again, staring at Ji Ruochen left and right, then slapped his forehead and said, "I remember, I got five taels of silver from you......! Your name is ......"

Jitian was suffocated for a while. He didn't ask Ji Ruochen's name at all, so where can he call it now? Today, I have a fate, I have to see Mr. again in Luoyang, I happen to ask for advice on some things, I wonder if Mr. can give advice?"

As soon as Ji Tianxia heard that Ji Ruochen had something to ask for advice, he immediately put up the shelf again, and said proudly: "Is there such a person who asks for advice on the street? Isn't it insulting to Sven?"

Ji Ruochen couldn't help but smile, and immediately pulled a passer-by by casually, asked which was the most expensive restaurant in Luoyang, and led Jitianxia straight away.

In the private room on the third floor of the Crane Tower, the ten fingers of the world are together, and the table full of wine and food is swept by him in a moment, and the wine is also under three pots.

Now that Ji Tianxia is full of wine and food, his face is flushed, and his eyes looking at Ji Ruochen are naturally softened to the extreme, and he sighs: "Five-flowered horses, daughters, Hu'er will exchange for fine wine, and eliminate eternal sorrow with you! Sure enough, life must be happy, otherwise what is the use of money? Taibai famous sentence, it really won my heart, won my heart! Uh...... I wonder what you're going to ask?"

Ji Ruochen arched his hand and said: "I heard that Mr. is familiar with the world's major affairs, can you tell Ruochen about Shouwang Li An?"

Ji Tianxia sneered and said: "King Shou, this person is ruthless and indecisive, although he has ambitions, but he has no comparable talent, no assistant ministers, and short-sightedness, self-cutting and good ministers, but a shaft, not enough to achieve great things." ”

At the beginning of helping the world, the mouth was like a river, and the topic was extended from King Shou, to explain the world's major events, and before he knew it, he had already digressed from the topic. However, this person is indeed talented, and the incomparably complex situation is often analyzed clearly and clearly by him in a few words.

The more Ji Ruochen listened, the more he admired, and the more he listened, the more he became fascinated, until Ji Tianxia, who was dancing with his hands, said that his back was sore, his mouth was smoking, and he had to rest for a while, he didn't think he had asked anything about this trip.

Ji Ruochen had a plan in a blink of an eye, and immediately said: "Mr. is talented, Ruochen admires it." Mr. Shicai seemed to be talented but did not meet, and had to stoop to the position of Xixi. That being the case, Ruochen still has a lot to rely on Mr. in Luoyang this time, I wonder if Mr. can deign to help?"

Ji Tianxia glanced at Ji Ruochen and said, "Do you want me to be your staff? Hmph, I am a saint, how can I be so easily subservient to others?

Seeing that Ji Ruochen's face was disappointed, Ji Tianxia's tone immediately changed, and he said, "...... It's just that seeing that you are so sincere, I can only reluctantly help you once. But the learning of the saint can't be casually with people, the monthly pattern of silver fifty taels, success is success, not success!"

For a cultivator, money is not as good as the earth, but it is also something outside the body. Ji Ruochen smiled slightly when he heard this, and immediately said, "So it's decided." ”

The two settled the bill immediately and left the crane tower.

Ji Ruochen looked at the back of Ji Tianxia, thinking of the night of the Luoyang catastrophe, this person can still walk around unharmed, if he is really just a weak scholar, who would believe it? And the more his true strength cannot be seen, the more terrifying it is.

"Hmph, I can identify countless fat sheep, this eyesight will not be bad!" Ji Ruochen sneered secretly, and was faintly a little complacent.

How do you know that Ji Tianxia suddenly turned around at this time, patted Ji Ruochen's shoulder and said with a smile: "I am a saint's study, and I am a divine dragon who mixes the wind and dust." I didn't expect the traces to be seen by you, the young man's luck is good!"

Ji Ruochen was stunned when he heard this, and his judgment was shaken.
