Ten states

Nangong Wuwei's strides are extremely large. When he was at He Jinzhi's home, Xiao Xia could tell that he should be a very determined and courageous person, but his striding strides would not let the people behind him Nangong Wuji and Xiao Xia felt that it was too fast to keep up, which showed that he had strong self-discipline and tolerance.

The huge Tiangong mechanism group is like a town on the ground, and the 'streets' and 'alleys' mixed in it have no rules, just like a maze. Some places seem to be spacious, but they are not passable at all, and some places can only accommodate one person sideways. However, Nangong Wuwei is like an old neighbor who has lived in it for more than ten years. Without hesitation, he came to a relatively spacious blank area, about ten feet square.

In this open space, there is a person standing with his back to them and hands behind his back.Amidst the ubiquitous buzzing and rattling of machinery, this person seemed to be able to hear their footsteps. Just when they turned a corner and saw this person, this person also turned around and looked at them. .Then I was taken aback.

This person has an ancient appearance, his gray hair is combed meticulously, although he is dressed in casual clothes, his expression reveals the majesty of a superior all the time.Even when he saw Xiao Xia's slight surprise, he was very solemn, serious and imposing.His majesty seems to have been tempered as an instinct of his.

Seeing this person, Xiao Xia was a little surprised, which was expected.This person was the leader of the Zhengyi Sect who he had just met in the city's celestial master not long ago, and Zhang Yuanling, the celestial master of Longhu Mountain.He came to Qingzhou for a bigger purpose.And in Qingzhou, only Nangong Wuji could attract him, the Taoist master, to come quietly.

The surprise on Zhang Tianshi's face was only fleeting, and he did not forget what he should do.Instead, he stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Nangong Wuji: "The impoverished Zhang Yuanling should have taken the initiative to visit, but he was never able to get in. Now it is a sin to involve Mr. Wuji in moving forward."

"Master Zhang, I don't need to say more polite nonsense. It's not easy for you and me to come out. It takes a lot of energy to meet each other. Let's talk about business directly." Compared with Zhang Tianshi's strict manner, Nangong Wuji is casual The sex is incomparable, and I talked to the leader of Zhengyi face to face.But it seems that he still speaks with the same demeanor and tone as the heroes of the rivers and lakes like Tianhe Ghost.

"Mr. Wuji's words are very true." Zhang Tianshi did not relax at all because of this. There are no more than three or four people in the world who are qualified for him to call himself "Poverty Dao". qualified.He glanced at Xiaoxia and Mingyue and said: "It's just that what we will discuss later is a major issue involving the world, the country, the country, and the country. Isn't it appropriate for these two juniors to listen?"

Don't talk about Zhang Tianshi.Even Xiaoxia himself felt that it was really inappropriate for him and Mingyue to be here.

In front of these two people.One is Taoism No. 1, and the other is the real No. 1 in the world that gathers the hearts and minds of the people of the world. It's just that it is not a simple matter for two people to meet and gather, and it will arouse countless heated discussions and speculations from others.From the fact that Zhang Tianshi, who always pays attention to prestige, unexpectedly came to this remote area of ​​Qingzhou quietly on a trip in a micro-clothes, and the free and easy Nangong Wuji also deliberately met in the organization group of Shenjitang, one can know that what they discussed is definitely a major event that can set off a world storm important matter.Even Nangong Wuwei who brought them here has disappeared.

For this kind of thing, Xiao Xia really only wants to go as far as possible, he has already had enough troubles.

"So it's this old Taoist priest." Mingyue curled her lips beside Xiao Xia.Turn around and walk towards the way you came. "What this old Taoist said is so boring, I'm not interested in listening to it. Daoist Xia. You can stay with Mr. Wuji alone."

Nangong Wuji smiled faintly: "Miss Mingyue is impatient with our common people's affairs, so it's good to go alone to relax. Daoist Master Qingfeng will stay with me here."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xia could only smile wryly and sigh secretly.

Zhang Tianshi at the side said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wuji, let me ask again, do you think it is appropriate for this little Taoist priest to listen to what we want to discuss?"

Nangong Wuji still said calmly: "This Taoist Master Qingfeng is seriously my junior, and he is going to sail to sea soon, and he may not be able to return in ten or twenty years, so it doesn't hurt to let him listen."

Zhang Tianshi fell silent, and after a while, he spoke slowly: "If he listens, he should join in. This is his fate and responsibility."

Nangong Wuji shook his head, and said casually: "Then you ask him if he is willing. He wants to leave, so why bother to force it. The fate is uncertain, fate or something, you and I are both in this world of mortals Ordinary people are not qualified to talk about it. As for the responsibility, it is the responsibility only if the person is sincerely willing, and it is nothing if he does not want to."

Zhang Tianshi fell silent again, even though there was no expression or movement, every wrinkle and every beard on Zhang Tianshi's face seemed to have not forgotten his position, showing the majesty and momentum he should have.But in the end, he was very clear that he did not dare to release these auras to the old man on the opposite side. After a long while, he still said respectfully: "Then Mr. Wuji, can you tell me the truth, what is the purpose of letting him come to listen? I believe Mr. Wuji With my status and reputation, I still can't do the kind of act of deliberately bringing people to watch my ugly appearance, and buying people's hearts by the way."

"Hehehe..." Nangong Wuji shook his head and laughed, but because of his physical disability, he was not loud, but long and feminine.He looked at Zhang Tianshi without concealing the playfulness in his eyes. "Don't talk about your reputation and status. I have never cared about those vain things since I was ten years old. If Qingfeng Xiaodao didn't have the heart to go to sea, he wanted to stay in this place in the Central Plains of China to see this A monstrous turmoil, I really mean what you said. I want him to take a good look at the true context of everything in this world, and don’t be confused by some fame and fame. As for the ugliness and so on, you are You, if you think you are ugly, you are ugly, why use others to look at you?"

"Since he has already made up his mind not to wade into this muddy water, I brought him here just as a way. Just treat me as bringing a nephew and nephew from my family to gain knowledge. And if you think about it carefully, he will come to Zhang Tianshi. You are not an 'outsider', and you are qualified to listen to what you and I have to say. Isn't it?"

After being silent again for a while, Zhang Tianshi finally nodded, took a deep look at Xiao Xia, and said in a deep voice, "Yes."

Xiao Xia smiled wryly.He could feel that there were many things in Zhang Tianshi's eyes, but he could only smile wryly.

"Then, let's get down to business... Everyone doesn't have much time, so take this opportunity to settle the important things..." Nangong Wuji took a deep breath.Although the expression on his face was still indifferent, there was still a bit of seriousness hiding in the depths of his eyes. "But I also want to ask in advance, your decision. Can it really represent Longhushan's decision?"

"Yes." Zhang Tianshi replied affirmatively, with a majestic tone, like an emperor's confidence in his own territory.

"Okay." Nangong Wuji nodded. "Then even in the future, the imperial court and Yingshanwei must control their positions. Whether they stay or not, are they willing?" After a pause, Nangong Wuji added: "Of course, we will not move the position of celestial master, so we must It is the position of the members of the Zhang family."

After just a short thought, Zhang Tianshi nodded: "They will be willing. Even if they are not willing, I can make them willing..."

In the distance, in a dark basement, Deacon Tang was listening carefully with his eyes closed.around him.There are dozens of plates that are polished to shine and are as thin as paper.However, these plates are not used to hold things, they are all hung on the wall, and there are faint and strange sounds coming from the plates.

"I found it." Deacon Tang's eyes suddenly opened, and there was a gleam of light in the dark basement.He held a small ball in the center of a certain plate with his finger, and the small ball instantly turned into a small cloud pattern and flashed across the plate, and then the subtle sound on this plate became louder .

"They will be willing, even if they are not willing, I can make them willing..." It was slightly hazy and distorted, but Zhang Tianshi's majestic voice and cadenced tone can still be recognized by people.

"Huh? Is it really useful? I can really hear it here. It is indeed Zhang Yuanling's experienced voice... I never thought that this mechanism technique is really ingenious, and it has some superhuman abilities." A voice sounded from behind Deacon Tang. sound.

"Well, this is almost the only way to eavesdrop on their conversation." Another voice sounded more forceful, more stable and mature. "Zhang Yuanling's own cultivation level is not considered to be extremely high, but after all, he is sitting on the position of a celestial master, and he is deliberately guarded. Under the forbidden law, any spells and Taoism within a hundred meters cannot be hidden, no matter how difficult it is to hide a master Within nearly twenty feet. Only this technique that does not rely on Taoism and spells at all can deceive him."

"Hey, Zhang Yuanling and Nangong Wuji thought it was a good place to meet and discuss. It's hard to get close to the crowd, and Ying Shanwei is easy to control the scene and won't attract attention. The only few people who can inquire about the news are sensible and know Interesting. There are also organs that block the line of sight and the sound of the organs to cover up the sound. From any angle, they are foolproof, but we didn't expect it to hit our hands. "

"Well, but the most important thing is that they didn't expect that there would be sensible people who would do something under their noses."

"Hey, but didn't you say that the people of the Tang family are the most difficult and loyal? Why would the Tang family do this kind of thing for us behind their backs?"

"Because people in the Tang family are people too." Deacon Tang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. He didn't turn his head to look at the two people behind him, but just looked at the silver plate in front of him with no expression on his face, and his voice was indifferent and peaceful, revealing fatigue. "Also because you are willing to give 3 taels of silver. For a person who can only dawdle on the periphery in his middle age, but needs to think about the future for his own children, this silver is one hundred times higher than the family's salary, and it is far more expensive than The family is more useful. These organs were prepared by the Shenjitang to monitor their own family, but I used it first, it is very easy and convenient."

"Hehe, so silver is a very useful thing. It can always make many difficult things easier and more convenient. It's the same for everyone, isn't it?"

"...This is not an institution intended to be eavesdropped by many people, so there is only one amulet for amplifying the sound. You listen to what you want to hear, and I will see if there is any movement from other people." Deacon Tang Stepping forward, he put his ear on another plate on the wall.

At this time, Mingyue, who was strolling along the mechanism corridor, suddenly felt that a mechanism in front of her was a bit strange.

Of course, Mingyue doesn't understand mechanisms. Whether she was before or she is now, she has no interest in these dead objects, let alone any research.But she still felt that the mechanism she had just passed was a bit strange.

This is a disc mounted on a hill-like organ, some like a huge bowl, and some like an upside-down umbrella without ribs.Mingyue can't tell what this organ is used for. In fact, she can't tell what all the organs here are used for. If she just looks at it with her eyes, the big bowl seems to be just a part of the larger organ behind it. Not surprising parts, among the organs piled up like hills, there are countless things more bizarre than this big bowl.Needless to say, Yue, including Xiaoxia, Tianhe Ghost, Nangong Wuji, and Ling Wusheng, would not care about these oddly shaped wood and stones at all.

But Mingyue felt that this mechanism was a little strange, she didn't see it with her eyes, she felt it.

As one of the fundamental supernatural powers of Buddhism, 'He Xintong' is far more miraculous than ordinary innate Taoism. Even Monk Chixia has not fully comprehended it. Mingyue, who directly inherited supernatural powers through relics, can only use it according to instinct.And when she came out of the glazed tower, she remembered that she knew a lot of things, and her mind was no longer as simple as before, and the sensitivity of this supernatural power also dropped a lot, but this still did not prevent her from vaguely feeling this strange feeling. The big bowl-shaped mechanism reveals a hint of prying 'thought'.

Although it was very faint, and the feeling disappeared quickly, it was definitely someone who was spying on this place through this mechanism.

He knocked on the wall behind the big bowl and felt it carefully. It wasn't that someone was hiding in it. The big bowl should be just a prop for peeping.Frowning and thinking about it, Mingyue couldn't understand how to use these dead objects of wood and stone to have the ability to spy, but this didn't prevent her from feeling a strange and uneasy atmosphere.

Taking a closer look at this weird big bowl, Mingyue turned around and quickly walked towards the way she came. (To be continued..)
