In the early morning of the next day, Ji Ruochen followed Xu Zekai to Luoyang Palace. Li An, the king of Luoyang, will hold a banquet in Tingsong Tower today to entertain Ji Ruochen. This king of Luoyang likes to cultivate the Tao as much as today's son, and when he heard that another senior brother of the Daode Sect had come to Luoyang, he was immediately overjoyed and set up today's banquet early.

The banquet was scheduled at noon, but Xu Zekai said that Prince Li was short-sighted by nature, and there were many virtuous and Taoist people in the palace, which was worth seeing. Ji Ruochen originally thought that Li An, like ordinary officials and nobles, raised some unknown people from small sects, but Xu Zekai said that it was worth seeing, so these people must not be idle. It's just that the cultivators seek immortality and flying immortals, not worldly wealth, since the Tao is successful, if they don't travel to cultivate immortals, why would they succumb to this palace?

Luoyang Royal Mansion is located on the side of the palace of the Son of Heaven, occupies the whole place, the palace is majestic, the heavy buildings are stacked and green, and its magnificence is self-evident. In the palace, there should be a palace and a pavilion, all of which are vermilion lacquer gold nail doors, jade glazed tiles, white jade as steps, with gold as the wall, the magnificent place is only slightly worse than the palace of the Son of Heaven.

The carriage entered from the west gate of the palace and slowly stopped in the courtyard. This garden consists of four independent courtyards and a waterfront tower, which is the place used by the king of Luoyang to temporarily settle the world's virtuous people.

Xu Zekai led Ji Ruochen straight into the second floor of the building. The second floor is all opened into a hall, which is transparent and bright. Some exotic flowers and plants are placed in various places in the hall, which adds a bit of elegance, and it is indeed a good place to enjoy the scenery and listen to the pine tea and drink. At this time, there were already three people sitting in the hall, two of them were middle-aged Taoist priests sitting by the window, and on the other side was sitting an old man with long hair.

After Xu Zekai entered the hall, he first saluted the three people, and the three people immediately got up and saluted back, obviously taking him very seriously. Ji Ruochen saw that the old man's face was kind, there were three points of generosity, three points of clarity, and the aura gathered but did not disperse, that is, he knew that the old man's cultivation was not shallow. And the two middle-aged Taoist priests are even more remarkable, the true yuan is full and overflowing, and at a glance, it is like a sea of light in the abdomen. Ji Ruochen knew that the cultivation of the three of them was much higher than his own, and they were all equivalent to the realm of the Shangqing in the Three Pure Secrets, and he was in awe at the moment.

Xu Zekai pointed at the old man first, and said with a smile: "This is the Elder of the Bibo Cave Sect, the Sect Elder's Blue Water Xuanbing Mantra is unique in the world, and I admire it very much." ”

When the old man heard this, he smiled very happily, and immediately arched his hand and said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say! A little carving insect skills, where can you get into Mr. Zekai's eyes?"

Xu Zekai pointed to the two Taoist priests again and said, "These two are the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch and the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch from the Seven Holy Mountains. The two Heavenly Monarchs are extremely strong, and they know all the laws, but they can't tell which one is their masterpiece. ”

The Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch was born extremely black and tall, with a strange face, although it is unknown whether he really has the power of a dragon elephant, but he has a bit of a dragon elephant appearance. And the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch was not much shorter than the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch, but he was as thin as firewood, with only a pair of slender eyes that were shining.

The two Heavenly Monarchs were obviously extremely arrogant, and at this moment they looked Ji Ruochen up and down, and saw that he was young and shallow, except for a wrench of unknown purpose on his left hand, there was no decent magic weapon on Zhou's body, and he was regarded as Xu Zekai's nephew at the moment.

Without waiting for Xu Zekai's introduction, Long Xiang Tianjun sat back in the chair, waved his big hand, and said with a big grin: "Mr. Zekai has nothing to say, don't worry, since this child was introduced by you, I will take care of it in the future." ”

Xu Zekai's smile did not change, and he thanked the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch for his kindness. The White Tiger Heavenly Monarch looked around, and when he saw that no one else came in, he immediately asked, "Mr. Zekai, which guest is the guest of honor who is specially hosting a banquet for Prince Li today, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Before Xu Zekai could answer, his sleeve was pulled by Ji Ruochen. Ji Ruochen approached him, picked up the true yuan, and asked in a very low voice, "Isn't this Seven Holy Mountain an evil sect?"

Xu Zekai tilted his head slightly, his smile remained unchanged, and he also replied in a low voice: "Now everyone is in the same hall as ministers, so there is no distinction between good and evil......

Ji Ruochen suddenly remembered what Ziyang Zhenren said in the letter, 'Don't have a heart of right and wrong', nodded at the moment, and was silent. The White Tiger Heavenly Monarch stared at this side with blazing eyes, suddenly sneered, and said, "Little guy, now everyone is doing things for Prince Li, and working together with the same master, how can there be a difference between good and evil." ”

Ji Ruochen's face was as usual, but he was shocked in his heart, and secretly thought that he whispered with the secret method of this sect, if the people of other sects did not reach the step of the eight veins of real people, they would not want to listen to it. But no matter how this White Tiger Heavenly Monarch looks, he doesn't look like he can compare with the real people of this sect, what secret method does he have, and he can listen to his words?

Xu Zekai smiled slightly and said: "The White Tiger Heavenly Monarch is a person with great wisdom, who knows the affairs of the world, knows the general situation, understands the situation, and understands the current affairs. With the eyes of the Heavenly Monarch, it is not difficult to see through what we are thinking. ”

Ji Ruochen knew that the meaning of Xu Zekai's words was that the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch was purely guessing, and he didn't really hear them, so he was immediately relieved. It's just that the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch can guess so accurately with just a little clue, and he does have some skills.

The White Tiger Heavenly Monarch was obviously quite useful to Xu Zekai's words, and his long eyes became a thin slit when he smiled at the moment, and even his impression of Ji Ruochen improved. He also waved his hand and smiled at Ji Ruochen: "You are lucky to have an elder like Mr. Zekai." If there is anything in the future, even if you ask, my two brothers will still be able to do something. Ah, by the way, what's your name?"

When Xu Zekai heard this, he immediately took a step to the side, let Ji Ruochen out, and said with a smile: "This is my Uncle Ji Ruochen of the Moral Sect, everyone will be closer and closer in the future." ”

"Uncle Shi!?" the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch shouted and jumped up.

"Uncle Shi?!" the White Tiger Tianjun snorted and sat down in the chair.

"Exactly. Uncle Ji is currently temporarily listed on the Ziyang real person gate wall. Xu Zekai said with a smile.

The White Tiger Zhenjun was suddenly shocked, his body flicked, and he was in front of Ji Ruochen in an instant, smiled sincerely and brightly, took Ji Ruochen's hand, and said with great affection: "I said that little brother Ji is so young, how can he have such cultivation! Seeing that you don't have a magic weapon on your body, it turns out that your state of mind cultivation has reached the realm of pointing directly to your heart and not pretending to be foreign things! Being a brother is dozens of years old, but the state of mind cultivation is far from reaching this realm, ashamed, ashamed! In the future, everyone will be closer! If there is anything, my two brothers can still do something!!"

Ji Ruochen felt Ruo Da Dao coming from his hand, his face was blue and white, and now he finally understood why Xu Zekai had just repeatedly emphasized that the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch 'knew the general situation, understood the situation, and understood the current affairs'. This kind of power of turning over the hand and rain and covering the hand and clouds to see the wind and make the rudder is indeed very comparable.

Before he could react, the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch suddenly jumped up, and in an instant, he also came to his side. Don't look at the tall and strong body of the Dragon Elephant Tianjun, this leap is as light as smoke, as fast as the wind, and it is a convincing thought. Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch said loudly: "Since you are Mr. Zekai's senior uncle, then Yunfeng Immortal must recognize him?"

Ji Ruochen was confused and said, "You mean Senior Brother Yunfeng?

Syllable!

Dragon Elephant Tianjun clasped his palms together, slapped Ji Ruochen's left hand in it, held it tightly, and then grinned, and a dragon-like smile immediately bloomed on his black face, and said in a loud voice: "Little Brother Ji, if you go back to the mountain in the future, you must greet Yunfeng Immortal for me a lot! Although it has been ten years since I have seen him, I still keep in mind the teachings of Yunfeng Immortal Elder back then, and I only hate the difference between good and evil, and I can't go to Xixuan Mountain to visit his old man." ”

Ji Ruochen only nodded again and again, where could he speak? In this way, this Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch is also a person who 'knows the general situation, understands the situation, and understands the current affairs', and is no worse than the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch.

It's just that Ji Ruochen felt a slight doubt in his heart, he had always seen Yunfeng Dao being mediocre and mediocre, patronizing and busy with some miscellaneous affairs, and there was nothing surprising about it. Why is this dragon elephant in the mouth of the Heavenly Monarch so respectful?

At present, the atmosphere in the hall is different, the dragon elephant and the white tiger moved their chairs, sat next to Ji Ruochen on the left and right, and Hu Kan blew violently. They were noisy and put Xu Zekai aside.

finally waited for the moment of the banquet of the king of Luoyang, and Ji Ruochen got rid of this embarrassing moment.

Tingsong upstairs has already lined up a banquet. Although this banquet is a family banquet, the list on the banquet is still mountain delicacies, birds, swimming fish and turtles, all-encompassing. The sixteen dishes alone are extremely ingenious. The cost of this table is more than enough for ordinary people to use for a year.

When Ji Ruochen and the others entered the table, Li An, the king of Luoyang, was already sitting on the main seat, waiting for the arrival of the guests. At that time, the dignitaries and dignitaries had a banquet, and the host would only sit after the guests arrived, Li Angui was the king of the feudal territory, and had the right to serve as an official.

Before leaving, Xu Zekai had already explained the etiquette rules to Ji Ruochen one by one. Although monks do not practice formal etiquette, the basic rituals cannot be abolished.

There is only one table at the banquet, and there are nine guests, all of whom have different images and profound Taoism. There was only one woman in the banquet, and Ji Ruochen had a relationship, that is, the Jingyu Fairy who appeared in the battle that day. After many years, Jing Yu's appearance is even younger, but Ji Ruochen has grown up from a thin young man, and his bearing and demeanor are completely different, and it seems that Jing Yu didn't recognize him.

After the guests sat down, Li An held the gold bottle high, left the table, and said loudly: "As the saying goes, immortals are different, think that I, Li An, am an ordinary man, and I can get the love and help of all immortals, I don't know how many lifetimes can be cultivated." If there is no help from the immortals, I Li Anyan can have today? All the immortals are people who eat and drink dew, this table of vulgar wine is difficult to eat, but the house is coarse, and there is no preparation in a hurry, and the immortals are invited to Haihan. ”

After saying that, Li An immediately gave a salute to the guests. All the guests returned the salute one after another: "The prince is polite!"

Li Anshi is forty-two years old, but he is very well maintained, he is only in his early thirties, his figure is long, his face is clear, and his phoenix eyes are quite narrow and long, and he knows that he is noble. In terms of generation, Ang Lee is the nephew of the son of heaven and has been favored since he was a child. He is so humble and gentle, so he can recruit so many people in the Tao to help him.

Li An waited for the guests to be quiet for a while, and then said: "Today's seat, first, is to thank the immortals for their help for many days, and secondly, it is to wash the dust for the moral sect Ji Ruochen Ji Shaoxian, Ji Shaoxian can have such a position at a young age, that is, he will be ranked in the immortal class one day, and that is just around the corner." How fortunate is this king to be able to get acquainted with such a person!"

Ji Ruochen was secretly observing the guests and Li An at the banquet, and at this moment, he heard Li An call his name, and immediately got up and thanked him humbly. He was born handsome, five years in the mountains, and the people who taught and solved doubts were all characters such as Taishan Beidou in the monastic world, and he saw a lot of magic weapons that were rare for ordinary monks in their lives, and they were even more immortal, and unconsciously, their bearing was different.

The guests had already seen that he did not wear the magic weapon, so they admired it even more. This person's heart is also strange, before Ji Ruochen reported his identity, in the eyes of everyone, his body was shabby. After knowing his identity and generation, not wearing the magic weapon has become a sign of cultivating the mind.

Next, it was a banquet of singing and dancing, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Xu Zekai was already hidden as the head of the guests, and since Ji Ruochen was his uncle, of course he was more in the upper seat, so he and Xu Zekai sat on Li An's side. The White Tiger Dragon Elephant Two Heavenly Monarchs were profound, and they should have sat on it for the first time, but the two of them sat on Ji Ruochen's side at the same time. Needless to say, the White Tiger Heavenly Monarch whispered to Ji Ruochen from time to time, and the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Monarch always twisted his huge body, looking for some topics to talk to Ji Ruochen.

Everyone knew that the two Heavenly Monarchs of the Seven Holy Mountains were well-known steerers who saw the wind and steered the rudder, and at this moment, seeing them so hard to show favor to Ji Ruochen, they couldn't help but look up to Ji Ruochen in their hearts. When Li An, the king of Luoyang, saw it, he was also thoughtful, and began to accept it.

Ji Ruochen has been forbearant for five years, and his temperament has long been unassuming, and becoming the guest of honor at the banquet like today really makes him uncomfortable. Fortunately, most of the people present are cultivators, and even Li An has been cultivating since he was a child, and he has a little bit of Taoism, so the topic naturally turned to cultivating immortals and visiting the Tao, which made him more or less natural.

Ji Ruochen has the secret of dissociation, and he has a deep view of all spiritual power and treasures, because although he does not understand the Taoism of various sects and sects, he has discussed the strengths and weaknesses of each family when he talks about it, and his opinions are often to the point, pointing directly to the source. All the guests present were amazed, and gradually put away their contempt.

Ji Ruochen is accustomed to observing words and feelings, and after a few words, he knew that everyone's reaction was wrong, so he never mentioned his own opinions, and some people asked about the problems of cultivation, only saying that he was young and shallow and had no knowledge. His modesty, everyone was even more awe-inspiring, and said in their hearts that he could worship under the Ziyang Zhenren Sect at such a young age, and he could really do what ordinary people couldn't.

This banquet of wine was eaten from afternoon to dusk, and then dispersed. Li An's drunkenness was up, and his steps were a little vain, so he had to go back to the harem to rest. Before the banquet was dismissed, he insisted that Ji Ruochen live in Huiyuan temporarily, the best courtyard there was still empty, and he would slowly choose a place for Ji Ruochen to live in the future. The two Heavenly Monarchs also echoed on the side, but Ji Ruochen couldn't help it, so he had to respond.

All the servants and maids in the garden were ready, and Ji Ruochen had no luggage, so he moved in directly. The two heavenly monarchs, the dragon elephant and the white tiger, moved a few more jars of private wine, and insisted on having a night conversation with Ji Ruochen, and they were not willing to return until dawn.

The good wine collected by the two heavenly monarchs is very different from ordinary wine, the wine is extremely strong, and the aftertaste is endless. The three of them drank for one night, and they all had the meaning of scenting.

When the two Heavenly Monarchs shook back to their rooms, the gate of Luoyang City had just opened.

In the misty morning light, I saw a light car speeding on the official road in the distance. The four horses pulling the carriage were fat and strong, and the majestic and unusually handsome, the coachman who drove the carriage was majestic and self-sufficient, and the carriage was extremely luxurious, and the guards guarding the door had not yet seen which prince belonged to the mark on the body, and the carriage had passed through the door and went straight into the city.

Those guards didn't dare to stop them just now, and now they don't dare to chase them, so they can only secretly scream in their hearts that they are unlucky.

The curtain on the window of the carriage was suddenly pulled up, revealing a face that was both cold and charming, and could be suffocating. She slowly swept through the private houses and restaurants on both sides of the street, and thought to herself, "Is this Luoyang......? Now that I'm in Luoyang, what should I do?"

On Luoyang City, ** Lan stood in the clouds, watching the carriage go straight towards the Luoyang Palace. At this time, a middle-aged Taoist priest came out through the clouds, stood beside her, and said, "Madam, I have informed Xu Zekai, he is now waiting outside the Luoyang Palace!"

**Lan nodded, snorted again, still looking a little angry, and said: "This Ruochen, is this really here to enjoy the mountains and rivers?

The surnamed Zhao Daoren groaned, and Fang said cautiously: "Madam, Miss Yin Yin...... If you are not familiar with the terrain, you must not be able to see that the carriage has actually been circling around Luoyang. ”

Lan nodded, also feeling that he was reasonable, and immediately put his mind at ease.
