That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 428

When Wang Mudao finally got away from many complicated matters and rushed to Juxiantai, he happened to see Xiao Bai standing outside the door.

Xiao Bai jokingly said: "Well, you Daoist Wang, it's really courageous to follow the old example of Emperor Wu's Jinwu Zangjiao."

Wang Mudao smiled wryly and said, "Your Highness, King Qi, don't talk nonsense, it's because this person has a special status, and the poor have no choice but to do it."

Xiao Bai smiled and said: "You are the master of a real Taoist sect, and you can also be regarded as a prince, why are you so timid? The few people on Dutian Peak have no time to win you over, what else can you do?"

Wang Mudao still smiled wryly, "This is the case now, but it may not be the case in the future."

Xiao Bai said softly: "If the Taoist sect can produce a female head teacher, what Wang Dazhen did today would be a great achievement in supporting the dragon."

Wang Mudao suddenly panicked, half-truth, half-false, and anxiously said: "His Royal Highness Qi, please be careful!"

Xiao Bai smiled, with deep eyes, "Since a woman can be the emperor, why can't there be a woman as the head teacher? There should be a female patriarch for the three Taoist masters and the twelve patriarchs."

Wang Mudao was stunned and speechless, not knowing how to respond.

Xiao Bai's identity is actually very special. He is not only the crown prince of Da Qi, King Qi, but also a member of the Taoist sect. This is also the tradition left by Xiao Huang. Xiao Huang used to be the master of the Northwest Taoist sect. His Royal Highness Xiao Xuan took over, and later passed it on to Xiao Bai. If Xiao Bai wants to intervene in this battle for the first apprentice, Taoism can't make a mistake.

Xiao Bai smiled again and said, "It's all just a joke, Master Wang doesn't have to take it seriously. After all, Master Teacher has not ascended to the ascension yet. In the end, Master Master has to decide who will be the head disciple."

Wang Mudao breathed a sigh of relief, "Exactly."

Not long after, Xiao Zhinan walked out of Juxiantai first, followed by Qi Xianyun.

Xiao Zhinan stood in front of the steps, turned around and clasped his hands towards Qi Xianyun, "Farewell, please stay."

Qi Xianyun also stopped and bowed his head to return the gift, "I'm sorry to see you off soon."

Xiao Zhinan turned around and went down the steps, first saluted Wang Mudao, and then said to Xiao Bai: "Let's go."

Xiao Bai cupped his hands towards Wang Mudao, and carefully helped his sister walk down the mountain.

When passing a boulder, Xiao Zhinan looked at the thin figure behind the boulder intentionally or unintentionally, his lips moved slightly, and he didn't speak.

At this time, Wang Mudao was a little upset after being disturbed by the Xiao brothers and sisters. After watching the two walk away, he hesitated for a while, and walked into Juxiantai.

Qi Xianyun in the stage stood with his hands behind his back, holding the silver silk whisk.

Wang Mudao said worriedly: "King Qi has always had great ambitions, and he is also the crown prince of Qi. He has made frequent moves over the years, and the magnitude of his schemes is no longer something that a poor man can speculate on himself. To say something that destroys one's ambition, today's Qizhou Daomen is just a pawn in the hands of His Royal Highness Qi Wang, he can't help himself."

Qi Xianyun said slowly: "Right and wrong cause and effect are like a quagmire. If you get involved in it, it will be difficult to break free, so that you will be muddy and muddy. Why don't master think about jumping out of the chessboard?"

Wang Mudao sighed helplessly: "Knowledge is easier than action, easier said than done. At the beginning, the king of Qi became a king and became a vassal. Instead of going to the capital of Qizhou, Jeju Mansion, he insisted on coming to Langya Mansion to build a palace. In the end, he came for my Qizhou Taoist sect. I didn’t escape back then, but now I’ve fallen into a rut, and it’s even more difficult to escape.”

Qi Xianyun asked: "What exactly does Master want to say?"

Wang Mudao was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "No matter what Her Royal Highness said, the nephew should not take it to heart, as long as he can rest here and clean up, and wait until the Master Master leaves the customs."

Qi Xianyun fell silent.

Wang Mudao was a little discouraged.

If Qi Xianyun was really persuaded by the Xiao brothers and sisters to make up his mind to compete for the position of head teacher, the Qizhou Taoist sect would definitely be involved.

On the other side, on the way down the mountain, Xiao Bai and Xiao Zhinan walked side by side.

Xiao Bai seemed to ask casually: "What did you say to Qi Xianyun in Juxiantai?"

Xiao Zhinan looked at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance, and said with a faint smile: "Actually, I didn't say anything, except for some private words from my daughter's family, I just asked her at the end, don't you really want to be a female head teacher?"

Xiao Bai smiled and said: "I also mentioned something to Wang Mudao, and almost scared him half to death. It seems that all these years of being cautious have exhausted the little spirit left by this Qizhou Taoist chief."

Xiao Zhinan squinted his eyes, like a fox spirit who has cultivated for thousands of years, and said softly: "Father once said that power can also be divided into three realms, whether a mountain is a mountain, a mountain is not a mountain, a mountain is still a mountain, this one The Daoist Fairy is obviously still in the first level of realm. She was protected by the Daoist Master before, so she may not feel anything, but after this incident of Biyou Island, she knows how powerful power is. Once you get the taste of it, you will definitely want to pick it up, it’s not easy to pick it up, and it’s even harder to put it down.”

Xiao Bai said plainly: "Counting down the people who have ascended through the ages, how many powerless casual cultivators are there? Which one is not the respected Taishan Beidou? Qi Xianyun wants to pursue her long life, but she has to live alive. If she doesn't fight, she will become a fish under the knife and be slaughtered by others, so she has to fight."

Xiao Zhinan smiled lightly, and said softly, "Why are we not like this?"

Xiao Bai glanced at the direction of the imperial capital intentionally or unintentionally, a gloomyness flashed across his eyes, and he retracted his gaze without a trace, "With the addition of a ghost palace, the situation on the imperial capital will be even more unpredictable. If a big master enters the arena, I'm afraid there will be a big mess."

Xiao Zhinan hesitated to speak.

But before she could open her mouth, Xiao Bai said bluntly; "I still advise you not to rush back to the imperial capital. After finally jumping out of the quagmire, why rush back? After all, it is a place that Qiu Ye dare not set foot on easily. Even a big mess can’t be turned around.”

Xiao Zhinan sighed softly, but remained silent.

Xiao Bai went on to say: "Originally, the emperor's ancestor left a huge fortune to the emperor's father, and the emperor's father has been secretly accumulating it all these years. The only masters on the surface are Zhang Baisui, Qu Chu, and Fu Zhongtian. , Wei Wuji, and Zhao Qing, as long as any two of them join forces, they can fight Murong Xuanyin, or even overwhelm Murong Xuanyin, not to mention those unknown secret methods, plus Zhang Wubing and others With the emperor's army who is the head of the five imperial guards, even if a god descends into the world, he can't do anything to the emperor's father."

Xiao Zhinan blinked his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Then tell me, what secret methods does the emperor have?"

Xiao Bai said helplessly: "If I knew, would the emperor allow me to be the king of Qi?"

Xiao Zhinan asked the question as a joke, and didn't take it seriously, continuing the previous topic, "If it was before, it would be fine if I didn't go back to the imperial capital. I didn't like that place in the first place, but this time it's different. It's a matter of my life. If I don’t go back in person, I won’t worry about it.”

The smile on Xiao Bai's face stiffened slightly, and he asked, "Because of that Xu Beiyou?"

Xiao Zhinan answered the non-questioned question: "I was able to leave the imperial capital safely this time, thanks to Han Ge's senior contribution, and looking at the current court, no one can ignore the opinion of this cabinet minister, even our father."

Xiao Bai was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little headache.

Xiao Zhinan said softly: "According to the days, he should have lost God, and it will really be a fateful time."

She paused for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Golden scales are not a thing in a pond, they can transform into dragons when encountering storms, and whether they can soar into the sky is a matter of one action."

In the end Xiao Bai could only let out a long sigh.

The rain is about to come in Zhongshan, the imperial capital, and gods from all walks of life come here one after another.

How will Xu Beiyou, who is bound to be deeply involved, deal with himself?
