Pawn Crossing the River

The so-called "Eight Tribes" is a Buddhist term, which refers to the eight guardian deities of Buddhism, including gods, dragons, yakshas, ​​gandharvas, asuras, garudas, kinnaras, and mohurakas. Among them, the gods and dragons are the most important, so they are also called the "Eight Divisions of Heaven and Dragons".

The reason why the Eight Tribes used this name has little to do with Buddhism, but because the predecessor of the Creation Project was the Eight Tribes Project. After these radicals left Taoism, they gave up the name of the Creation Project and switched to the name of the Eight Tribes. It's somewhat of a metaphor.

Of course, the Taoist sect would not remain indifferent to such a big thing as the Eight Tribes rebelling against the Taoist Sect, and would definitely take some measures. Therefore, the Eight Tribes went underground and dispersed instead of gathering in one place to prevent them from being wiped out by the Taoist sect. .

In the process of evading Taoist pursuit, the eight branches of the eight tribes gradually formed, corresponding to the eight directions, namely east, south, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest.

The Celestial Beings are located in the southeast, which is Borneo in South Asia. Qiniang is the leader of the Celestial Beings. Qi Xuansu doesn't know how Qiniang got this position, but considering the power of Quanzhen Taoism in Borneo, it is reasonable. Regardless of Qiniang's age, she is still the eldest lady of the Yao family. It would not be surprising even if she killed the previous leader and replaced him.

Logically speaking, there is also a branch in the Western Region, which happens to correspond to the northwest.

Qi Xuansu even had a hunch that if Qiniang came to the Western Region, maybe the leader of the eight tribes holding the "Xuan Jade" would be in the northwest.

So Qi Xuansu took the initiative to meet this person.

Don't look at Qi Xuansu here

The reason for being humble in front of Qiniang is because of the love between mother and son and the kindness of reincarnation. When it comes to actual power, Qi Xuansu is above Qiniang. The youngest person in charge and the candidate for the top leader is not a joke. Just kidding, even a god like He Luo Shen has to be a follower of the dragon, and there is a real dragon like Long Xiaobai beside him. Qi Xuansu is willing to meet with one of the leaders of the eight tribes, which can be regarded as a surrender. .

Qiniang said unhurriedly: "You kid is right, the leader of the Asura tribe is indeed in the northwest. Asuras and the heavenly beings are enemies, and heaven is against the earth. As the saying goes, the sky tilts to the northwest, so the heavenly beings are here The southeast direction is opposite to the northwest, and it is also said that the earth sinks to the southeast, so Asura is in the northwest."

Xiao Yin showed off: "I know this. The sky is against the earth, the rain is against the wind, the continent is against the sky. The mountain flowers are against the sea trees, the red sun is against the sky, the thunder is faint, the fog is misty, the sun is against the sky."

Qiniang praised her without hesitation: "Our little Yin is so smart."

Xiao Yin puffed up her chest proudly.

Qi Xuansu said: "There is still some time before the final war begins. If the leader of the Asura tribe agrees to meet, then I can take time to meet."

Qiniang clicked her tongue and said, "He is a big shot after all, but his tone is different."

Qi Xuansu did not deny it: "Even if I meet Patriarch Jin Gong and Zhou Mengyao, I will be the same."

Qiniang turned around and said, "I heard that you and Zhou Mengyao reconciled?"

Qi Xuansu said "hmm" without saying yes or no: "Yunshendongtian is all thanks to her. I have no other advantages. I am just nostalgic and easy to be soft-hearted."

Qiniang and Xiao Yin sneered at the same time, full of sarcasm.

who wants to say this

The two are not biological grandparents, so no one believes them.

Qi Xuansu didn't dare to talk about Qiniang, why didn't he dare to talk about Xiaoyin? Then he pointed at Xiao Yin and said, "Nothing big or little."

Xiao Yin now has Qiniang's support, so she is not afraid of Qi Xuansu and makes a face towards Qi Xuansu.

Qi Xuansu returned to the topic: "Qiniang, please tell me the truth."

Qiniang said: "That's why I'm here. Since you plan to meet with him, I will arrange it myself. But let me tell you in advance. The leader of the Asura tribe is not easy to deal with. He is an annoying guy."

Qi Xuansu said: "Speaking of being annoying, when I was still in the Qingping Association, I felt that there were so many annoying people who were pretentious and weird. Just like there is a saying, you can't kill someone with endless cups of wine. I was an enemy all my life, but later I gained a higher status, and suddenly I found that everyone around me became ‘good people’, and everywhere I looked, they were all smiling faces.”

Qiniang said without sincerity: "So keep working hard. When you become a master, it will not be as simple as a smiling face. Everyone in the world will cry and recognize you as their father and your wife as their mother. This Calling you a king's father is called a mother's gift to the world. When the time comes, you can say: My life is miserable! Most people have only one son, two sons, and many wives and concubines, but I am a king's father. Everyone is my son. To sum it up in two words, loyalty!”

Xiao Yin then made a gesture of clenching his fists and cheering, and said seriously: "Loyalty! There is no other day in the sky, and there is only Lao Qi in my heart."

Qi Xuansu waved his hand and said: "Don't talk nonsense when you go out. There is also the biggest tiger in the Taoist sect last time. I think you want to send me to Kunlun Taoist Mansion. If you have nothing to do, just follow

I explode, you are the most disloyal. "

Xiao Yin said with a smile on his face: "Lao Qi, it is said in the play that the eldest prince is the eldest prince. If you become the great emperor, will you make me the eldest prince?"

Qi Xuansu said helplessly: "First, the Grand Master is not a great emperor, there is no hereditary inheritance, and there is no prince. Second, even if I become the Great Emperor of Lao Shizi, I can only make you the crown princess, not the crown prince. You You don’t have that condition, understand?”

Xiao Yin suddenly said: "So that's it, I understand."

Qi Xuansu stopped talking nonsense with Xiao Yin and asked, "By the way, what is the name of the leader of the Asura Tribe?"

Qiniang said: "Xiu Nanxuan."

Qi Xuansu added: "If there is any relevant information, give me a copy so that I can do some homework in advance."

"Only you are the best." Qiniang said this, but took out a booklet from her sleeve and threw it into Qi Xuansu's hand.

Qi Xuansu started flipping through the booklet directly.

Xiu Nanxuan, his great-grandfather was recruited by Yaozu and joined the Creation Project. Later, Xuan Sheng abolished the Creation Project and established Huasheng Hall and Tianji Hall. Because he was dissatisfied with the Creation Project being abolished, he rebelled against Taoism and became the founder of the Eight Tribes. One of them, and became the leader of the northwest branch, growing in power, and then passed it down from generation to generation.

Xiu Nanxuan had no children, only one daughter. Xiu Nanxuan was determined to let his daughter inherit the ancestral legacy, but his daughter Xiu Yueyi was not interested in the Eight Tribes, or in other words, Xiu Yueyi didn't like "transborn". They reject the extreme ideas of the Eight Tribes and prefer the "Tianji" series, that is, things like firearms and armored ships. This is the weakness of the Eight Tribes and is also rejected by the Eight Tribes.

The father and daughter often had conflicts over this.

Xiu Yueyi said that either she would not be allowed to inherit the family business, or if she was forced to inherit the family business, then she would change everything after she took office and focus on developing firearms from now on. Xiu Nanxuan was naturally very angry and wanted to ground Xiu Yueyi. , Xiu Yueyi ran away from home.

This information was very detailed. After reading it, Qi Xuansu probably understood that Xiu Nanxuan's request was probably related to this daughter.

It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household matters. Even if Qiniang has great hands and eyes, she would not be able to handle this kind of thing. No wonder she did not agree to it.

Then Qi Xuansu handed the booklet to Xiao Yin: "Xiao Yin, you are the eldest daughter, tell me."

Xiao Yin looked at the words on the booklet and blinked again: "What are you talking about?"

Qi Xuansu said: "If you continue to disobey, I will ground you like Xiu Nanxuan."

Xiao Yin's face was full of innocence: "I am the most obedient, why do you ground me? Then I will run away from home."

Qi Xuansu said: "If you run away from home, there will no longer be ten companies."

Xiao Yin immediately began to fight between heaven and man.

Qiniang also brought a gift to Xiao Yin, a set of "nine-nine jars" worth six hundred and forty-eight Taiping coins. This already belongs to the category of luxury goods. Most people can't afford it, even a ginseng expert like Qi Xuansu. Real people, if they only rely on a small amount of money and no other income, they can't afford much. Only people from aristocratic families can afford it.

Qiniang is said to be worth millions and has numerous properties to her name. Of course she doesn't care about this little money. If her children like it, then buy it. He was treated completely differently from Qi Xuansu.

Xiao Yin played a set of ten in a row and opened another Xian Yaozu, which made his nose bubble with joy.

Qi Xuansu saw that this was Xiao Yin's weakness, and he practiced to his advantage.

You can control Xiao Yin.

At this moment, Qiniang stood up and left, contacting Xiu Nanxuan.

Qi Xuansu contacted Lu Yujue.

Lu Yujue thought that Qi Xuansu was here to ask questions, so when he opened his mouth, he admitted his mistakes to Qi Xuansu and seriously reviewed them.

Qi Xuansu wrote lightly: "Forget it if you die, even Zhao Jiaowu is dead, there is no use keeping Ma Er."

Lu Yujue had many old friends in Beichen Hall and had already learned the news. He expected that Qi Xuansu would probably not do anything bad, so he just expressed his attitude. When he heard what Qi Xuansu said, he immediately put his heart back in his stomach. At the same time, he also realized that Qi Xuansu must have something else.

As expected, Qi Xuansu continued: "Shuangyu, do you know Xiu Nanxuan?"

Lu Yujue thought quickly and asked, "Is the person the Palace Master mentioned coming from the Eight Tribes?"

Qi Xuansu said: "Yes, how much do you know?"

Lu Yujue said: "Since the secret association was normalized, the Taoist sect required members of the normalized association to register, and Xiu Nanxuan was among them, so I have some impressions. By the way, when the Taoist government held a banquet, Xiu Nanxuan also came I participated, but the master was busy at the time.”

Qi Xuansu remembered that Hu Jiaochong introduced Madam Ma to him at that time, and then came a series of changes such as Xiao Bodhisattva's troubles.

Lu Yujue continued: "Deputy Palace Master Hu seems to have some friendship with this person."

Qi Xuansu thought for a moment and said, "In this case, you and Lao Hu will check out Xiu Nanxuan, especially his relationship with his daughter."

Lu Yujue hesitated and asked: "What kind of investigation? Are you caring about him? Or helping him?"

Qi Xuansu said: "

Of course it is concern. "

Lu Yujue understood now that he was not trying to investigate Xiu Nanxuan, but wanted to cooperate. Then he would have to grasp the scale, not to go overboard, but to be just right.
