Taiping Inn

Shangqing Palace, located in the "Qingcheng" of Tiancang Mountain, is the first viewpoint in Shuzhou, not inferior to the other three Shangqing Palaces.

As we all know, there are two mountains in Shuzhou, one is Shushan and the other is Tiancang, and the two are equally famous. In terms of its vast territory, Shuzhou is the largest state in the world. For the martial arts world, Shuzhou should not be underestimated. Before the evil sects entered Shuzhou, in addition to the Miaozhen Sect occupying the Qingcheng of Tiancang Mountain, there was also the Shushan Sword Sect dominating Shushan, which was known as the largest sect in the world, second only to the twenty-two sects of the righteous and evil ways.

In fact, in terms of strength, the Shushan Sword Sect, which occupies Shushan alone, is not inferior to many sects, and is even slightly stronger than some sects that have been weak for a long time. However, the twenty-two sects of good and evil have been established for more than a thousand years, and at least for hundreds of years. Sects such as Zhengyi Sect, Taiping Sect, and Qingwei Sect originated from the Zhengyi Dao Tianshi Sect and Taiping Dao in the past, and have been established for more than 1,500 years. Although they have experienced ups and downs in the past thousand years, their foundation and reputation are recognized by everyone. The later sects such as Xuannv Sect and Pinnv Sect also have a history of more than 800 years. Every sect was established and became famous, which was accumulated by countless talents and efforts over thousands of years. From a sect to inheritance, it is all condensed bit by bit and tempered, and it is definitely not a one-day or one-night work. In comparison, the rise of Shushan Sword Sect in the martial arts world has only happened in the past hundred years. Although it has prospered quickly, its foundation is still not as good as many second-tier sects, not to mention the contemporary major sects such as Zhengyi Sect, Qingwei Sect, Wudao Sect, and Butian Sect.

The martial arts world of Shuzhou is simple and complex. Some people describe it as "one way, one sword, one fort, and one religion". The "one way" is Miaozhen Sect, the "one sword" is Shushan Sword Sect, the "one fort" is Tangjia Fort, and the "one religion" is Qingyang Sect.

Miaozhen Sect is ranked first among the four forces, which is well deserved. The reason why Qingyang Sect is ranked last is that previously only the Hongyang main altar of Tang Han was located in Shuzhou, the Qingyang main altar of Tang Zhou was in Qinzhou, and the Baiyang main altar of Tang Qin was in Qizhou. If the three main altars are added together, the strength of Qingyang Sect is far more than just the fourth place.

The Miaozhen Sect is not closing the mountain now, but it is better than closing the mountain. The difference from the Jingchan Sect is that the Miaozhen Sect did not take the initiative to close the mountain, but was issued a mountain closing order by the Xijing court. This is because the five sects in the northwest are restricted by the Yuxu sword fight bet and cannot take action against the Miaozhen Sect. They can only use this method to make things difficult for the Miaozhen Sect in disguise.

Because of this mountain closing ban, woodcutters, pilgrims, tourists, and herb collectors are not allowed to enter Tiancang Mountain, but they cannot stop the high-level Jianghu masters.

Li Xuandu came in this way, and after Li Xuandu, the other two visitors also came in this way. The two visitors are one big and one small, both women. The older woman looks about 27 or 28 years old, and the younger one is about 10 years old.

After the woman explained her identity to the Taoist master, the Taoist master did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly led the distinguished guest into the mountain gate. After asking the distinguished guest to rest for a while, he hurriedly reported to the master of the sect. Although Ji Shuye had been deposed as the leader of the sect, he was still used to being called the leader because he had been helping Wanshou Zhenren to manage the affairs of the sect for many years. However, he could not mention it in front of outsiders.

Soon, Ji Shuye woke up quickly and bowed to the woman respectfully, saying, "Junior Yuan Zhenzi greets Madam Li."

The visitor was Li Feiyan, who had come all the way from Yunu Mountain in Xiaozhou. In terms of seniority, she was the junior sister of Li Daoxu, the senior sister of Situ Xuance and Zhang Haishi, and could be regarded as one of the few people with the highest seniority in the world today. She was also the deputy leader of Qingwei Sect, so Ji Shuye had to meet her as a junior.

After Li Feiyan returned the greeting, she asked, "Has Zifu arrived?"

Ji Shuye nodded and said, "Mr. Qingping has arrived. Master made an exception and came out of retreat early for this. At this time, the two are in the back mountain. I will lead Madam Li to meet them."

"Thank you." Li Feiyan's face was just indifferent. In a sense, Li Feiyan and Qin Su are very similar. They are both a little cold and indifferent in front of outsiders and like to hide their true selves. The difference is that the real Qin Su is very shy, while the real Li Feiyan is informal, straightforward and a bit domineering.

Ji Shuye led the two to the back mountain, and saw Wanshou Zhenren and Li Xuandu drinking tea in a bamboo pavilion. There was also a woman standing beside them, who was Ji Shuye's disciple.

Seeing Li Feiyan coming, Wanshou Zhenren and Li Xuandu stood up to greet him. Li Feiyan finally smiled, "I dare not be a Zhenren like this."

Wanshou Zhenren is old and strong, "If I don't even stand up when there are guests, I'm really taking advantage of my age."

At this time, Wanshou Zhenren saw Long'er following Li Feiyan, and after taking a look at him, he was about to say something but stopped.

Li Feiyan explained, "This is a child I took in accidentally. I wanted to leave her with a friend, but the little girl refused to leave, so I had to keep her by my side."

The little girl seemed a little shy and hid behind Li Feiyan, revealing only half of her face.

Master Wanshou was a little surprised and doubtful, "This girl's face is a little strange, it's really strange."

Li Xuandu's heart moved, and just as he was about to ask, Master Wanshou had already shaken his head and said, "But I am not proficient in this, and I can't see anything. If it were Mr. Yuanzhou from Taiping Sect, it would probably be okay."

After hearing this, Li Xuandu swallowed the words he wanted to ask again. He silently calculated in his heart that when he returned to Taiping Sect, he would let Shen Yuanzhou take a look in person, and he had to find out the origin of this little girl.

The group entered the bamboo pavilion and sat down. Wanshou Zhenren said first, "The Zi Mansion and Mrs. Li are all here because of the Tang family."

Li Feiyan nodded and said, "That's right, the Taoist sect had just been unified, and something happened to the Tang family. To put it bluntly, this is provoking the majesty of the Taoist sect, and it should not be disrespectful. If this wind opens, everyone can provoke the Taoist sect, then the majesty of the Taoist sect All the destruction is not to mention how outsiders think of us, even if we are our own people, we must have different thoughts, but I am afraid that the Taoist sect that has just been unified will be divided again."

Wanshou Zhenren gently supported his beard and said, "What Mrs. Li said is that such abnormal behavior in the Tang family must be instigated behind the scenes, so it is not difficult to hit the Tang family. The key is how to deal with the people behind the Tang family."

"The real person is extremely worried." Li Xuandu said, "Because of this, I don't want to rashly break up with the Tang family. Then I want to ask Miao Zhenzong to come forward and mediate, and then let my aunt come forward to the head of the Tang family. Mrs. Tang talks about the old friendship, see if she can move it with reason and knows it with emotion, so that the Tang family will be lost and will not be doomed."

Wanshou Zhenren repeated softly, "There will be no return."

Li Xuan smiled faintly, "You can climb the sky with one step, but on the way to climb the sky, you can step into the air with one step below you, and you will be like a deep abyss."

Wanshou Zhenren sighed a little and said, "Since Zi Mansion has made up his mind, then...Shuye."

Ji Shuye, who was sitting aside, stood up and said, "Disciple is here."

Wanshou Zhenren started to take action, and some old people were slow and calm. After a while, they said, "There are no outsiders here, so you can invite her over and she will answer the questions from the Zi Mansion in person."

Uncle Ji's face changed slightly, but he still responded respectfully: "Yes."

After saying that, Uncle Ji turned around and left the bamboo pavilion.

After about half an hour, Ji Shuye returned, and a woman was next to him, with her hair tied up and dressed as a young woman, which was completely different from the dress of an unmarried woman. Li Xuandu I immediately understood that this was one of the twelve female officials of the Female Sect who made Ji Shuye lose the position of sect leader.

The woman came to the bamboo pavilion and gave a blessing to the people in the pavilion, whispering: "I am Bei Yao, and I have met Zhenren, Mr. Qingping, and Mrs. Li."

Li Xuandu stood up and said, "Madam, please come in and speak."

Bei Yao glanced at Ji Shuye, and Ji Shuye said, "Mr. Qingping invites you, just go in and talk."

Bei Yao then followed Ji Shuye to the pavilion, sat next to Ji Shuye, lowered his head slightly, not to look at Li Xuandu, Li Feiyan and others.

Li Xuandu said, "The reason I invited my wife over is because I have a few things I want to ask for advice on. If there is something to bother me, I hope my wife will not be surprised."

"I dare not, Mr. Qingping, that's it." Bei Yao said softly.

Li Xuandu nodded and said bluntly: "Mrs. I came from the Female Sect. I should know a lot about the many secret arrangements of the Female Sect. I would like to ask my wife, there is a Female in the Tangjia Fort in Shuzhong Prefecture. What is the arrangement of the female clan?”

Bei Yao raised his head and glanced at Li Xuandu, but he couldn't see anything from Li Xuandu's face. He subconsciously looked at Ji Shuye, but heard Wanshou Zhenren say, "Whatever Mr. Qingping asks, you will answer." , don't hide it."

"Yes." Bei Yao's face sterned, "Mr. Qingping, the female sect also has a secret son in Tangjiabao, but I don't know the exact identity of that secret son."

Li Xuandu asked again: "Will the Pin Nu Sect train male disciples to seduce women from major sects and large families?"

"No." Bei Yao's answer was very affirmative.

Li Xuandu asked: "Why can't it?"

Bei Yao said: "Because of the martial arts, there is no corresponding martial arts. Just based on skills, it takes a certain amount of luck to weave a love net. If all the arrangements and plans are placed on luck, many will appear. Unpredictable trouble. In order to prevent this situation, the Pin Nu Sect will not spend more time on this, unless the Pin Nu Sect obtains the corresponding exercises to seduce women. "

Li Xuandu said: "In other words, Mrs. Tang Wan is unlikely to be influenced by the female sect."

Bei Yao hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, but she may reach a connection with the Pin Nu Sect through her disciples hidden in the Tang family, and then join forces with the Pin Nu Sect."

Li Xuandu nodded, "Thank you, my wife, for answering questions and answering questions. I have no other questions about the Tang family."
