Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion

Chapter 315 314. Elder Lei’s Journey to the Dragon in the Imperial Palace (10,000-word chapter)

After Yuan Mobai listened quietly to Lei Jun's description, he sighed: "Although the Xiao clan in Longwai is no longer as luxuriant as before, it still produces talents in large numbers."

Lei Jun nodded silently.

In addition to Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting, there is also their half-brother, Xiao Hang, the current leader of the Xiao clan.

The surge of spiritual energy in heaven and earth makes it easier for today's monks to practice. The most obvious beneficiaries are the newly emerging top geniuses of the younger generation.

Xiao Hang lived in the ancestral land of the Xiao clan outside Long. Unlike Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting, who often accompanied the Tang emperor, he seemed less attractive.

But no matter whether it is Lei Jun, Yuan Mobai and others from Tianshi Mansion, or other top forces, they will not ignore that Xiao Hang was once known as the same name as Jingxiang Fang Zhu, Qingzhou Ye Cheng, Suzhou Chu Zhe, Cangzhou Ye Feishan and others. One of the leading figures of the younger generation of famous Tang Dynasty families.

Their future path points to Ye Yan, Fang Jingsheng, Chu Xiuyuan and other heads of aristocratic families.

Like Xiao Xueting, Xiao Hang also successfully reached the eighth heaven realm in the past few years.

Coupled with Xiao Chunhui, who has great talent but hides it and has accumulated a lot of experience, although the Xiao family outside Longwai is no longer as prosperous as it was in its early years, the old tree is sprouting new branches and signs of revival are already there.

"The former great master of the Xiao clan was not a simple man." Lei Junyan said.

Yuan Mobai: "Xiao Yumen layman is indeed an extraordinary person."

Going back a few decades, when the Xiao clan in Longwai had a large tree with deep roots and dominated the northwest, there were about three most important people in the clan.

The previous head of the Xiao clan, Xiao Hang’s grandfather, was also known as the old man of the Xiao clan.

The previous head of the Xiao clan was the second uncle of brothers Xiao Hang, Xiao Chunhui, and Xiao Xueting. Before he took over as the clan leader, it was customary inside and outside the Xiao clan to be called the second master of the Xiao clan.

Then there is the father of the three Xiao Hang brothers and sisters, Xiao Yumen, the eldest master of the Xiao clan.

At that time, Xiao Yumen was even known as the number one master of the Xiao clan outside Long.

When he was still young, he was a Confucian scholar who became famous in the Tang Dynasty, and then he soared to great heights.

But what was unexpected was that Xiao Yumen failed to take over as the leader of the Xiao clan in the end.

Among his peers, he, together with Fang Jingsheng, the current leader of the Fang Clan in Jingxiang, and Lin Huan, the leader of the Lin Clan in Youzhou, were the most promising scholars at that time to reach the realm of the Nine Heavens in a short period of time.

It's just that the fate of the next three people was very different.

Fang Jingsheng successfully broke through to the ninth level, fulfilling the expectations of the world.

However, because of her battle with Xu Yuanzhen, Lin Huan is still unable to take that final step to this day.

As for Xiao Yumen, it was a complete tragedy. Together with other elders and masters of the Xiao clan outside Longwai, they perished in the demonic chaos in the Western Regions...

"However, we cannot say this with certainty."

Lei Jun thoughtfully said: "After all, the remains of layman Xiao Yumen were not confirmed at first. We only heard people mention that he was buried in the belly of a big demon. However, the witnesses soon died in the demon chaos in the Western Regions. Now it is difficult to do so anymore. Check.”

It would be fine if there was no follow-up of the mysterious rise of the brothers Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting.

However, while Xiao Chunhui and Xiao Xueting are extremely talented, their backgrounds are still in doubt, which makes people have to think more about whether there is another secret behind the life and death of Xiao Yumen.

Yuan Mobai: "It's not advisable to make false claims without conclusive evidence. In the early years of the demonic chaos in the Western Regions, not only was the Xiao clan robbed outside Long County, but it was also close to national catastrophe for the Tang Dynasty. Regardless of whether they were alive or dead, the laymen of Xiao Yumen had killed many people in the previous wars. Great demon, protect the common people."

Lei Jun: "That's what Master taught me."

Speaking of which, under the current situation of the Tang Dynasty, if the Xiao clan in Longwai is still around, where they will go is very much in suspense.

However, no matter how you calculate it, Xiao Yumen's team can be called a legend.

If Xiao Chunhui is willing to take another step forward, then he, Xiao Hang, and Xiao Xueting's three brothers and sisters will all be at the eighth level of cultivation.

This is very rare in ancient and modern history.

Chu Xiuyuan, the old leader of the Chu Clan in Suzhou, and Ye Moquan, the old leader of the Ye Clan in Cangzhou, are already famous sons and daughters in this era.

However, Chu Xiuyuan had only his third son Chu Zhe and his youngest daughter Chu Yu to cultivate to the eighth level of heaven. The remaining most accomplished child is the eldest son Chu Lin, who is currently the Secretary of the Tang Dynasty. He has a high position and a well-known official reputation, but his personal cultivation is not The seventh heaven of Confucian classics is the realm of fighting.

He has already passed the age of 200. Whether he can reach the eighth level before the age of 400 is a big question mark. It is not as certain as Xiao Chunhui.

And Ye Moquan got a son and a daughter, Ye Wei and Ye Han, who were both at the eighth level of heaven cultivation, making a total of two people.

In the past few hundred years of the Tang Dynasty, apart from the special circumstances of the clan, there was only one precedent similar to the Xiao clan's current situation.

It was Li Zhiyuan, the first generation of Li Tianshi. His three biological sons, Li Yang, Li Bai, and Li Song, all achieved the eighth level of the Taoist Fulu Sect. Among them, Li Yang and Li Bai both reached the perfection of the four scenes of the Eighth Level Divine Court. The four father and son were It laid the foundation for the rise and decline of the Shinshu Li family for three to four hundred years.

However, the Shinshu Lee family has become a thing of the past.

There is still suspense as to where the Xiao clan in Longwai will go in the future.

After Lei Jun ended his contact with his master Yuan Mobai, he returned to Lianyunguan.

In the next few days, people came to visit or invite Taoist Master Lei one after another.

From Shangguan Qing, the servant of the important ministers of the dynasty, to Lu Zhen, the veteran general of the Shence Army, to Ling Chulin, the secretary of the dynasty, and even to the elders of the Jingxiang Fang clan, he can be called the left servant of the minister of the Tang Dynasty. Shoot Fang Hezhou.

All kinds of garden tours and banquets are fully scheduled.

Lei Jun was mentally prepared for this.

From the moment he accepted the position of patrolling elder and came to Luoyang, the imperial capital, all this was expected.

As an open reserve force for the Celestial Master, it is similar to socializing, which is the proper meaning of the title.

He is no longer the young and underachieving disciple he was back then.

In comparison, Lei Jun prefers to practice quietly, but after taking on this responsibility, he is not afraid of the stage in relevant occasions, and represents the Tianshi Mansion with a well-organized demeanor.

Of course, even if you really take over the position of Heavenly Master in the future, this kind of life will not be mainstream for a long time.

This trip was because Lei Jun had previously lived in seclusion, but now he finally stood in front of the stage. Others wanted to know more about his ideas and opinions, so Lei Jun took the initiative to make a public appearance.

"Elder Lei, after saying goodbye to each other in the past, twenty-eight summers and winters have passed by without realizing it."

At the banquet, an elegant and steady Confucian scholar raised his glass to Lei Jun: "The world has changed, and the elder's demeanor is even better than in the past."

Unlike the Taoist priests of the Danding sect who are forbidden from drinking, the Taoist disciples of the Fulu sect and the Waidan sect only teach not to drink too much.

Lei Jun calmly raised his glass and returned the favor: "Master Ye, you are so polite."

The scribe opposite was named Ye Cheng, given the courtesy name Jifeng, and the master of Lanhai Pavilion. He was the leader of the younger generation of the Ye Clan in Qingzhou. He was once known as the East and West Ye Feishan together with Ye Feishan of the Ye Clan in Jinzhou.

Nowadays, he is one of the core senior leaders of Qingzhou Ye Clan, and it is also difficult for him to be looked down upon by young people.

When Lei Jun crossed the river with his senior sister Xu Yuanzhen in the past, he had a chance encounter with her.

Compared with that time, Ye Cheng's appearance is obviously older, no longer youthful, and he has a beard.

Considering his age and cultivation, he is naturally still extremely young.

Changes in appearance are more due to changes in identity and status.

However, sitting across from Lei Jun, he always had an elegant and gentle smile on his face.

Ye Cheng invited Lei Jun to be his guest, but Lei Jun did not refuse and remained calm as usual.

"How is Fairy Xu?" Ye Cheng asked.

Lei Jun: "Senior Sister is currently looking for the whereabouts of Huang Xuanpu, Fu Dongsen and others."

Ye Cheng: "The so-called Taoist countries in the world are all demons. They cause harm to the people and destabilize the world. Everyone can find them and punish them. Ye also often pays attention to relevant clues in Qingzhou. If he finds any, he will definitely hand it over to the court as soon as possible. And noble faction.”

Lei Jun: "Pavilion Master Ye is very thoughtful. I'll thank you first."

Compared with the Cangzhou Ye Clan and the North and South Erlin, there is no apparent conflict between Longhu Mountain and the Qingzhou Ye Clan.

Therefore, Ye Cheng invited Lei Jun to attend the appointment calmly, with nothing unusual on his face.

Although he just killed Ye Yi, an important figure of the opponent in the East China Sea a few years ago, his hands and feet were clean and Qingzhou did not know...

"Were Heavenly Master Qingfeng and Elder Hongyu of the noble sect the murderers of Huang Xuanpu?" Ye Cheng asked.

Lei Jun said solemnly: "That's right, so this sect will definitely kill it."

Ye Cheng's face showed a look of reminiscence: "In the past, when I was young, Ye also listened to the teachings of Master Qingfeng and traveled south of the Yangtze River with Taoist Master Zhengxuan. Now that he has passed away, I have no memory of him."

Lei Jun: "Master Ye is determined."

There was nothing unusual on Ye Cheng's face, but in fact he was observing Lei Jun carefully in secret.

He did meet Li Qingfeng and Li Zhengxuan father and son.

But right now, it mainly depends on Lei Jun's attitude towards these two people.

The previous dispute between Li and Wai ended with the foreign surname winning, and Li Song, Li Ziyang and other Li clan members were expelled, regardless of whether they were alive or dead.

But some members of the Li clan are treated differently.

Except for the late Celestial Master Li Qingfeng, although Li Hongyu and Li Zhengxuan died, their vessels were not removed by the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Ye Cheng is currently observing Lei Jun mainly to see his attitude towards the Li family, and by extension, to guess what he thinks of other famous families.

The attitudes of Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang have become very clear over the years.

Not only the former Jiangzhou Lin Clan, they also had a hostile attitude towards other famous families.

Relatively speaking, masters and apprentices Yuan Mobai and Lei Jun were relatively peaceful.

Except for the confrontation with the Lin clan in Jiangzhou, they rarely had conflicts with masters from other clans.

Of course, it's not friendly.

During the Battle of Li Wai, Yuan Mobai was also one of the mainstays of the descendants of the Wai surname of Tianshi Mansion.

Lei Jun, on the other hand, only participated in the Jiangzhou battle.

Afterwards, most of his actions were directed at Huang Tiandao, Human World Dao Kingdom or Tianli cultivators.

According to current observations from all parties, Taoist Master Lei has a relatively cold and aloof temperament. The few times he takes action, most of them are to help Longhu Mountain resist invading enemies, or to help fellow sects.

He himself rarely took the initiative to initiate a provocation.

Even when he went to the East China Sea, the reason was that his classmate Xu Yuanzhen disappeared from Tianli.

Although Ye Yi died in the East China Sea, Ye Yao, who had originally been in contact with Lei Jun, later talked to Ye Cheng about the Taoist Priest Xuan Xiaozi of the Tianshi Mansion.

Based on current observations, if Elder Lei can really succeed Tang Xiaotang in taking charge of the Tianshi Mansion, the subsequent aggressiveness and aggressiveness of the Tianshi Mansion will be reduced.

From the current perspective of Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion, it is naturally good to recuperate and recuperate.

In the long run, they will become stronger.

However, their reduced aggressiveness also reduces threats and unexpected factors for famous families such as the Qingzhou Ye Clan.

What the future will bring depends on the further game played by all parties.

Although Ye Cheng had a lot of thoughts in his heart, there was nothing wrong with his face, and he was chatting and laughing with Lei Jun happily.

Lei Jun responded calmly. Although the atmosphere of the banquet was not enthusiastic, it could be said that the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves in the end.

Ye Cheng invited Lei Jun to be his guest and prepared various gifts.

Lei Jun doesn't refuse anyone who comes.

He also had the magic talisman and elixir from the Tianshi Mansion as a return gift, which was not a loss of favor.

For Taoist Master Lei, it was a pity that most of the things Ye Cheng sent were spiritual objects to assist in cultivation.

If he had to choose by himself, he would prefer Ye Cheng to give some spiritual objects inherited from the Confucian classics of the Ye Clan in Qingzhou, including calligraphy and painting.

In this way, it would be convenient for him to further study the clues of Qingzhou's Ye clan's family history. He had already figured out everything he had learned from Ye Yi last time...

It's a pity that Brother Ye Jifeng is so inconsiderate!

Coming out of the Qingzhou Ye Clan's mansion in Luoyang City, Lei Jun returned to Lianyunguan.

Similar to banquets, he has been to many houses in the past few days, openly and openly, with all parties involved.

This trip is just to show off and look familiar, and there is no need to consider whether it involves taking sides.

When Lei Jun returned to Lianyunguan tonight, someone from the temple came to the door in person and had been waiting for him for some time.

Fellow senior brother Lin Shan was greeting Lei Jun.

"Senior Brother Lin." Lei Jun nodded to Lin Shan and then looked at the two visiting guests.

From the appearance of their clothes, they looked like two young scholars.

One of them is Meng Shaojie.

The other young man was clearly the current prince Zhang Hui.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to visit in person. Please forgive me for being rude." Lei Jun stepped forward.

Prince Zhang Hui smiled and shook his head: "I am taking the liberty of coming here, please don't take offense at Elder Lei."

Meng Shaojie looked much calmer than before, but he was very respectful in front of Lei Jun: "Elder Lei, the student is interrupting."

After the two parties met, Lei Jun invited them to sit down and asked Lin Shan to accompany him.

After listening to them chatting for a while, Lei Jun knew that, as Xiao Chunhui said, Meng Shaojie was studying behind closed doors, just like other monks in the Taoist tradition. He did not go out again until today.

He always remembered Lei Jun's help in relieving him from the calamity of the Balance of Movement and the encouragement Lei Jun gave him on Longhu Mountain.

Now that Lei Jun has arrived in Beijing, Meng Shaojie comes to visit.

Just as he was finishing his retreat, Prince Zhang Hui originally wanted to summon him to reminisce about the past. Hearing that Meng Shaojie wanted to visit Lei Jun, he simply came with him.

As time goes by, Zhang Hui's visits to the palace are decreasing.

Fortunately, the queen had returned to Luoyang, and Zhang Hui was able to remove himself from the post of supervising the country and move more freely than before.

Of course, his trip out of the palace to visit Elder Lei of Tianshi Mansion also had to be reported and recorded in the palace.

Although he left the palace incognito, he was also accompanied by officials from the East Palace. He was currently being entertained in Lianyunguan, waiting for His Highness the Crown Prince's return.

"Your Highness oversees the country and the government is stable, so that His Majesty has no worries, which is a blessing for the people." Lei Jun said calmly.

Zhang Hui: "Over the years, I have been walking on thin ice, fearing that if I didn't check for a while, I would mess up the imperial court. Fortunately, the emperor's aunt has been strategizing, and there are elder Lei and other experts to help the country. Now that the emperor's aunt has returned to Beijing, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

He looked at Meng Shaojie and said with a smile: "Reciting poems and painting is more suitable for me. I was chatting with Qingyan just now. Over the past few years, my writing style has become a lot rusty."

Meng Shaojie said apologetically: "This minister is so stupid that it is difficult for His Highness to worry about the affairs of the court."

Zhang Hui shook his head repeatedly: "What are you talking about? If you study hard and achieve success, it's not too late for me to be happy."

Lei Jun was also looking at Meng Shaojie at this time: "I haven't seen you for many years. Young Master Meng is studying and cultivating his energy, and he has achieved some success."

Although he used the dark side of the heavenly book to guide and even help Meng Shaojie, he could not always monitor the other party through the dark side of the heavenly book.

Therefore, Lei Jun is not very clear about the specific progress of Meng Shaojie's practice over the years.

At present, Meng Shaojie's cultivation level has not only reached the middle three-level level, but also is higher than expected.

It seems that the other party has indeed found a new and unique path that is immature but very suitable for him.

His extraordinary talent began to show.

Lei Jun quite wanted to chat more with the other party about the details of historiography, a branch of Confucian practice.

However, there is no rush in this regard. He will be in Luoyang for the next period of time and can slowly communicate and discuss with Meng Shaojie.

Of course, Meng Shaojie is still just starting out on this path, and has yet to explore in the long run.

In the eyes of the outside world, he is still a little transparent.

The people who came to visit Elder Lei this time seemed to focus on Prince Zhang Hui.

Although Zhang Hui came to visit in disguise, the news was not hidden from anyone, so many people paid attention to it.

"His Royal Highness, you stayed in Lianyunguan for a long time and returned to the palace just before the curfew."

In the house of Shangguan Qing, the servant of the sect, Shangguan Qing sat across from Lu Zhen, the general of the Shence Army, and talked about this matter.

Not long ago, Lei Juncai was invited to visit Shangguan Qing and Lu Zhen's houses respectively.

Shangguan Qing and Lu Zhen didn't pay much attention to the fact that Lei Jun had many friends and accepted invitations from Chu Lin, Ye Cheng and others, and they would not doubt that Lei Jun had completely changed his mind on behalf of the Tianshi Mansion and was working with Qingzhou Ye Clan and Suzhou Chu. Confucian families such as the Han Dynasty and other Confucian families agreed with this.

What Ye Cheng, Chu Lin and others wanted was to temporarily stabilize the relationship between the Tianshi Mansion and them, and to find out Lei Jun's attitude and the changes he might bring about when he took over the Tianshi Mansion.

However, Prince Zhang Hui went out of the East Palace to visit Lei Jun in person, which attracted the attention of Shangguan Qing, Lu Zhen and others.

"His Highness has had close contacts with Qingzhou, Suzhou, and Jingxiang before, but obviously he will not only focus on one side. The fall and rise of the Tianshi Mansion has the potential to become the leader of the Taoist sect, and His Highness will naturally not ignore it." Shangguan Qing said.

He believed that Qingzhou, Suzhou and Jingxiang would also pay attention to this matter.

However, it wouldn't be that surprising.

Although the Qingzhou Ye Clan and other famous families have placed heavy bets on Prince Zhang Hui, they all know that if they really want to achieve great things, they must get support from many aspects.

At least, not everyone is the enemy.

Many times, it is not necessary for most people to support you, but being able to remain neutral and not be your enemy is already a favorable environment.

This is also true for the Ye Clan in Qingzhou and the Chu Clan in Suzhou themselves.

Lu Zhen: "I heard that His Highness has often consulted you, Brother Shangguan, over the years?"

Shangguan Qing: "His Royal Highness is a genius. I only communicated with him once or twice. I don't dare to ask for advice or advice."

Lu Zhen nodded slightly and did not continue.

Prince Zhang Hui has gradually shown his talents in recent years.

For Datang Jiangshan, it adds a little uncertainty.

Because Her Majesty the Queen is also extremely young today.

There are two days in the sky, which is not an auspicious sign.

It's just that what the Queen has done in recent years is indeed frowned upon, and it doesn't just dissatisfy the Confucian families such as Ye, Lin, Chu, and Fang...

"The Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain rose too fast from the bottom."

Lu Zhen changed the topic: "However, it is not without signs. It is just that I had never expected that in addition to Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang, there is also Lei Jun's recent rise."

At first glance, the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion only has Xu Yuanzhen, a ninth-level Taoist with high purity.

Tang Xiaotang and Lei Jun are still at the eighth level of cultivation.

But their momentum is so fast!

The latest news is that Tang Xiaotang has reached the eighth level of consummation.

According to their previous progress rate, how many masters of the Nine Heavens realm will be in Longhu Mountain before long?

"At least for now, it is certain that the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain will not be like the so-called Taoist Kingdom on earth." Shangguan Qing said slowly.

Lu Zhen: "Fortunately."

Shangguan Qing was in the room, looking in the direction of Lianyun Temple, "Xuanxiaozi Lei Chongyun seems to be a calm and self-sufficient person. If he takes over the position of Tianshi, I believe that Longhu Mountain will be more peaceful." .”

………………

Lei Jun doesn't pay attention to how the outside world speculates on his situation.

There are two things that he is personally interested in right now.

First, it was to listen to Meng Shaojie talk about his understanding and progress in studying history.

Secondly, Lei Jun met someone when he was a guest at Lu Zhen's house.

The other party's name is Yu Cheng, and he is the master of Hui Tian, ​​a famous doctor in Luoyang, the imperial capital, and he studied under the King of Medicine.

Martial arts inheritors generally believe that there are three channels, namely military attack, body training and medicine.

Yu Cheng and Huitian are in the same line of doctors who are famous all over the world.

At the banquet at the Lu Mansion, Lei Jun and Yu Cheng had a good chat, and the other party specially invited Lei Jun to return to heaven as a guest later.

Today is the day for the appointment. After checking his apprentice Zhuo Baojie's homework in the morning, Lei Jun was ready to go out.

At this time, Lin Shan came over: "Junior Brother Lei, want to go out?"

Lei Jun: "I was invited by the hall master to go back to heaven."

Lin Shan: “Have you set a specific time?”

Lei Jun: "That's not true. We only made an appointment today. Hall Master Yu said we can do it at any time, so I planned to go there early. Is there something wrong, senior brother?"

Lin Shan: "It's nothing special. There's just a Dharma gathering. You and I are invited."

While handing the invitation to Lei Jun, he introduced: "The host is a princess from the royal family. Representatives from major holy places and aristocratic families are invited to gather together, including Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, to talk about everything. It will be held during the day today, especially I invite Junior Brother Lei to preach on the altar. If you are interested, you can go to the Dharma gathering outside the city first, and then go back to heaven in the evening at the invitation of the hall master."

Similar talk is common in Beijing, and Lei Jun has heard of it.

To others, this is an opportunity to further build your reputation.

Lei Jun didn't care much about this.

However, the heirs of various Taoist traditions gathered together to talk about scriptures and communicate with each other. This kind of occasion made Lei Jun a little interested.

While he was thinking about it, unexpectedly, a ball of light suddenly flashed in his mind and words appeared:

【Act according to the contract, act from the heart, each has its own ingenuity, but all come from the same source. 】

What followed were three fortune-tellings:

[Winning the lottery, arriving back to heaven at noon, there is a chance to get a third-grade opportunity. There is no risk at present. There will be some causal entanglements in the future, so deal with it carefully. Good luck. 】

[If you win the lottery and arrive at the Baima Mountain Dharma Ceremony outside the city at noon, you will have a chance to get a fifth-grade opportunity. No risks and no future troubles. Good luck. 】

[If you win the lottery, you will go back to heaven and other places other than White Horse Mountain at noon. You will gain nothing and lose nothing, flat. 】

Well, overall, it's a pretty good fortune, two of the top picks.

An opportunity is of higher quality, but may have some drawbacks.

The grade of an opportunity is relatively low, but there are no disadvantages in terms of pure income.

As for winning the lottery, it means doing nothing, gaining nothing and losing nothing.

The former corresponds to performance of the contract.

The latter corresponds to moving according to one's heart.

Of course, strictly speaking, choosing the latter option and going to the Baima Mountain Dharma Conference first cannot be considered a breach of contract.

but……

Each has its own ingenuity, but all come from the same source.

What does this mean?

Could the two corresponding opportunities come from the same source?

Many thoughts flashed through Lei Jun's mind, but his face remained calm.

After roughly thinking about it, he declined Lin Shan's offer: "I won't attend the Dharma conference today. I'd better go back to heaven earlier."

However, he recruited his eldest disciple Zhuo Baojie: "Senior brother, if it is convenient, can you take Hua Jie to expand his horizons?"

"What's the inconvenience? Senior nephew Huajie will set off with me later." Lin Shan didn't think there was anything wrong.

If it's him, maybe consider impact and etiquette as well.

And with Lei Jun's current cultivation strength and status, whether he can go to a ceremony like this depends entirely on his own interests.

He went, which was a rare event since the Dharma Conference was founded.

If he doesn't go, that's the regret of the attendees, not his.

"A hug, come on."

Lei Jun summoned his eldest disciple, without any additional instructions. He only said that although Baima Mountain, where the dharma conference was held, was very close to Luoyang, it was outside the city after all. Normally, no one would dare to take any risks under the emperor's feet, but as long as he went out, he could not Be careful and pay attention to your own safety.

Zhuo Baojie nodded solemnly.

Under the triple three-dimensional teachings of his uncle, his master, and his third uncle, Gungun always acted with caution in his daily life.

Except for the occasional craving...

"Bring these with you." Lei Jun not only gave his Xirang flag to his eldest disciple, he even secretly added the Taiqing Eight Scenery Treasures.

For him, there is no risk of winning the lottery, but for Zhuo Baojie, who has cultivated for three days, it may not be so.

Since the apprentice was sent to another lottery, Lei Jun naturally had to make some preparations.

Although Baima Mountain is within the range of his flying sword, Lei Jun can protect his apprentice when absolutely necessary.

But after all, it was under the Queen's nose, so Elder Lei still wanted to keep his little secret for a little longer.

After watching Zhuo Baojie leave with Lin Shan, Lei Jun set off on his own to return to heaven.

Even in Luoyang City, Huitian Temple is divided into main hall and branch halls.

The branch hall is open to the public all year round, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.

The main hall is generally not open to the public.

However, the relevant people had already given the instructions sincerely, and when Lei Jun arrived, someone would pick him up.

In the front hall, a middle-aged man who looked about forty years old, thin and elegant, was waiting with a smile.

Seeing Lei Jun come in, he stood up to greet him: "Master Lei, welcome, welcome."

"I'm sorry for disturbing you, layman." Lei Jun called the Taoist official.

The two parties sat down and chatted for a few words. Lei Jun took out something and handed it to Yu Cheng, the master of the Return to Heaven Hall.

Yu Cheng took it with a solemn expression, took one look at it, and then exhaled a long breath: "Thank you, Taoist Master Lei!"

Lei Jun: "Yu layman is serious, Pindao only got this prescription by chance."

Yu Cheng shook his head gently: "The prescription of Tianluo San was created by a certain master in the past. Unfortunately, it was lost due to an accident. Although the master has made restorations in recent years, he still hopes to collect the remaining lost prescriptions to comfort the master. The spirit of ancestors in heaven.

Naturally, I have to thank Taoist Master Lei and Longhu Shan for this success. It is a pity that my master has been traveling abroad in recent years and has not returned to the capital. Otherwise, he would be very happy at this moment. "

The remnant prescription of Tianluo San was obtained by Lei Jun in the Tianshu Universe in the past through a transaction with Mu Yao, the star of the year, who is the future Maitreya.

The things that were obtained together at that time were the lost Tianyuan Qingjing Dan recipe from the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion, and the Hanguang Dan recipe from Shushan, the Holy Land of the Waidan Sect.

The Zhenyi Altar and the Heavenly Master's Seal had undergone unprecedented special changes due to the combination with Lei Jun's soul. They could use the first layer of the Zhenyi Altar to deduce incomplete elixirs and medicines.

In addition to his own Tianyuan Qingjing Dan, Lei Jun also successfully restored the Shushan School's Hanguang Dan and the martial arts doctor's version of Tianluo San.

Previously, Zhang Taigang took over the leadership of Shushan, and Lei Jun brought a gift from the Tianshi Mansion to congratulate him.

One of the congratulatory gifts was the Cold Light Pill recipe, which surprised Zhang Taigang, Ji Chuan, Ji Dongquan and others.

Now that he has come to the capital to return to heaven, Lei Jun provides Yu Cheng with a prescription for Tianluo Powder.

Yu Cheng started to return to heaven, and his master was Sun Mingjing, the king of medicine, who was one of the best doctors in the Tang Dynasty.

He is already quite old, but he still travels around all year round, discovering and searching for new medicinal materials, and at the same time, he also helps the world, and he never asks about his origin when he visits.

Even ordinary people can sometimes get personal consultation from the King of Medicine.

Therefore, in the Tang Dynasty, Sun Mingjing, the king of medicine, was very famous.

Lei Jun: "I have always admired Pindao for respecting his teacher's demeanor. Unfortunately, I missed our meeting today. Although I regret that I missed it, Pindao believes that there will be opportunities in the future."

Yu Cheng nodded repeatedly: "If Taoist Master Lei is free, he might as well stay in Luoyang for a while. The master has been away from home for many years. According to his past habits, he should return to Beijing in recent years."

Lei Jun: "Although Pindao is not sure how long he will stay in the capital, it would be best if he could wait until Senior Medicine King returns to the capital."

Compared with Ye Cheng, Chu Lin, Fang Hezhou, Shangguan Qing, Lu Zhen and others, his dealings with Yu Cheng this time were more in-depth.

Not on behalf of him personally, but on behalf of the Tianshi Mansion, to contact Yu Cheng's return to heaven.

The content is about the exchange of resources between the two parties on various natural and earthly treasures of medicinal raw materials, as well as the exchange of elixirs between the two parties.

Tianshi Mansion is the ancestral gate of the Taoist Talisman Sect, and is involved in making talismans, refining elixirs, and refining weapons.

Master Lei Jun, Yuan Mobai, is currently the number one master of alchemy in Tianshi Mansion.

Yu Cheng is also highly respected.

On this trip, Lei Junxiang gave a prescription for Tianluo Powder. Although the prescription had been restored by Medicine King Sun Mingjing, Yu Cheng still accepted the favor from Lei Jun and Tianshi Mansion because he could obtain the ancient prescription.

Therefore, the negotiation between the two parties went quite smoothly, and they were given many preferential treatment in return for their return to heaven.

Lei Jun studied alchemy with Yuan Mobai over the years, and as time went by, his attainments gradually became more and more profound.

At this time, communicating with Yu Cheng will be beneficial to both parties.

"Taoist Master Lei uses the twin thunders of yin and yang to drive the thunder heart furnace to refine the elixir. This method is quite rare and has been a great inspiration to someone." Yu Cheng sighed with emotion.

Lei Jun: "It's just a little trick that a poor Taoist came up with. It's still very superficial and made Master Yu laugh."

Yu Cheng shook his head, and his eyes were unusually excited: "Daoist Master Lei is too polite. This has great merits. How can it be described as a little trick?"

The two sides got excited about chatting, and time passed without realizing it. In the blink of an eye, it was almost noon.

As soon as Yu Cheng came to the province, he confessed to Lei Jun and ordered people to prepare rice.

There was no strange color on Lei Jun's face.

But as the time approached the noon time mentioned in the fortune-telling, he began to pay attention to his surroundings.

If the Queen did not return to Luoyang, Lei Jun could arrogantly turn the Great Zhou Tian Dharma Mirror around and patrol inside and outside the imperial capital.

But now that the Queen is back and Luoyang is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, Lei Jun is cautious and cannot use the Great Zhou Tian Magic Mirror directly to avoid being noticed by the Queen.

However, even so, he can still monitor the vicinity of Huitian and his great disciple Zhuo Baojie through his heaven-power and earth-pure dharma-lun and heaven-sighting and earth-hearing talisman.

Zhuo Baojie went to the Baima Mountain Dharma Assembly with Lin Shan.

Lei Jun himself was not present. Although the participants were sorry, they could not force anything. Everyone continued as usual.

As a disciple of Lei Jun, a certain little bear watched with eyes, nose and heart, listening more and talking less.

After a whole morning, there was no problem.

until noon.

At the Dharma meeting, there was a sudden commotion.

Some people noticed that there were traces of evil spirits sneaking into Baima Mountain.

The Dharma meeting immediately became chaotic.

Lei Jun was not worried about the safety of his apprentice and fellow disciple Lin Shan.

Although the Dharma Assembly was in chaos, there was no threat from the enemies of the previous three days. Lin Shan had traveled around the world for many years without any serious problems.

But when he wanted to find his nephew Zhuo Baojie, he was missing...no, the bear was missing.

Lei Jun knows where his apprentice is through the sky and earth listening talismans.

Okay, with all the chaos going on, this little bear took advantage of others not paying attention and first put on the Taiqing Eight Scenery Treasure Cover, and then held up the Xiyang Flag.

He originally wanted to invite his fellow disciple Bo Linshan to join him, but the meeting place was chaotic and the two parties were separated.

Zhuo Baojie had no choice but to look for Linshan while carrying the Taiqing Eight Scenic Spots and the Xirang Flag.

His level of cultivation at the middle three levels was unable to bring out the full power of these two magic weapons.

But the attendees were basically all middle-three-day monks, and they also couldn't see through Zhuo Baojie's whereabouts.

When Lei Jun saw this, he felt relieved and knew that nothing was serious.

As for whether you can get the fifth-grade opportunity mentioned in the fortune-telling, it depends on the weather.

I am lucky if I gain it, and I don't need to worry about losing my life.

Lei Jun now turned his attention to what was happening on his side of Heaven.

At noon, there was a flash of light in his eyes that penetrated the sky and the earth, and he noticed something moving outside, and thought to himself, here it comes.

However, Lei Jun did not move for the time being and continued to sit still.

After a while, a disciple who returned to heaven came to report. He came to Yu Cheng and whispered a few words. After hearing this, Yu Cheng apologized to Lei Jun and said, "Please sit down for a while, Taoist Lei. Something happened outside. Yu will go and deal with it." , Taoist Master Lei, please eat first."

Lei Jun: "Please, layman."

Yu Cheng leaves.

Lei Jun didn't move his chopsticks and waited quietly for his master to return.

Not long after, tremors and noises began to be heard outside.

Yu Cheng has not returned for a long time, and the commotion outside is getting louder and louder.

In the hall, the Huitian disciples standing aside looked uneasy.

Lei Jun asked calmly: "What happened outside?"

That time the Tiantian disciple hesitated for a moment, and then answered honestly: "Replying to Elder Lei, I heard that people from Prince Zhao's Palace colluded with the White Lotus Sect, which triggered the Shence Army to arrest them. The people from Prince Zhao's Palace refused to let go. so……"

Lei Jun understood.

King Zhao Zhang Teng has recently received a lot of attention-grabbing news in Youzhou, Northland.

Although he never stated it clearly, everyone in the Tang Dynasty had some guesses about his thoughts.

However, logically speaking, he would not blatantly cooperate with the White Lotus Sect.

After all, the White Lotus Sect is a rebel appointed by the royal family.

How to plan behind the scenes is another aspect.

But the more King Zhao thinks about the dragon throne in the palace, the less likely he will be openly involved with places like the White Lotus Sect, Dakong Temple, and the Human World.

Now that something like this happened suddenly, the reason is probably hard to explain.

Logically speaking, Shence Army would not act recklessly and easily touch a place like Prince Zhao's Mansion.

This collision between the two sides came somewhat unexpectedly.

At any other time, Lei Jun would simply watch the fun.

But now the two sides are starting to take action, and their location is near Huitian, and they are about to involve Huitian as well.

The battle between two martial arts masters who lasted for three days seemed to have relatively concentrated destructive power and limited impact.

But the two men's sharp edges swept across the surroundings. For a moment, they were literally dead if they were close to each other, and injured if they touched each other. They moved quickly, as if multiple masters were attacking at the same time.

A large number of houses have collapsed.

When I returned to heaven, half of the house collapsed.

Although I'm not sure what the third-grade chance is, the sign in the middle of the road should be here. If I don't arrive at noon, my return to the Heaven Main Hall may be ruined by this battle... Lei Jun thought to himself.

His heavenly and earthly penetrating magic weapon circulated, and the figures of the two warring parties automatically came into view.

Both are masters of martial arts.

The one holding a big gun was Dong An, the general of the Shence Army of the Tang Dynasty.

One of them is holding a long sword, Jiang Yuan, the general under the command of King Zhao.

Jiang Yuan's face was livid at this moment, he had let go of his scruples and ignored the consequences of going to war with the Shence Army general.

Both are masters of martial arts, and their attacks have similar characteristics. Both move like lightning, extremely fast and violent.

But the difference in the true meaning of martial arts styles between the two can still be seen.

Dong An attacked fiercely and quickly, as if he had transformed into thousands of bodies, and the spear tip was like a torrential rain, stabbing towards Jiang Yuan from all directions.

Jiang Yuan kept calm, moving quickly and slowly. Chang Ge repeatedly blocked Dong An's attacks and often only counterattacked with one or two out of ten moves, but he was fast and ruthless, forcing Dong An back continuously.

Yu Cheng deliberately separated the two, but as a doctor, although he was also a seventh-level monk, head-on fighting was not his specialty.

Dong An and Jiang Yuan usually show off their dignity to Yu Cheng, but now they have shown real fire.

If Yu Cheng dares to approach rashly, he will only end up being killed or wounded by the spear.

In addition to the generals of both sides, the soldiers of the Shence Army who came with Dong An also began to surround Jiang Yuan's men, and a wider war was about to begin.

While Yu Cheng was anxious, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "What kind of dignity is this important place in the Imperial Capital?"

He looked back and saw that it was Lei Jun coming out.

Lei Jun looked around at the damaged Huitian, his brows furrowed even more.

But he did not take action directly, but looked at Yu Cheng, the owner of this place: "Yu layman?"

Yu Cheng smiled bitterly: "It makes Taoist Lei laugh, but as you said, how can this be decent now? Yu is weak, so he can only ask Taoist Lei to take action."

"The layman's words are serious, and poor Taoists don't like to fight. Just to avoid the situation getting worse, I can only try to break it down for both parties."

Lei Jun said: "Please forgive me for overstepping my authority."

After saying that, he nodded to Yu Cheng, and then disappeared on the spot.

When they reappeared, they were already between Shence Army Dong An and Zhao Wangfu Jiang Yuan.

The two men's spears and long swords, which penetrated the rocks and cut rivers, fell on Lei Jun together.

The two top three martial arts masters were both shocked.

Then all the flowers bloomed before my eyes.

As the stars twinkled, it seemed as if a star-studded god appeared between the two parties.

The direct descendant of Tianshi Mansion, the Dharma Image of Doumu Star God!

The Dharma Elephant of the Dou Mu Star God transformed into Lei Jun did not dodge, avoid or parry, with his hands behind his back.

Just the talismans flowing around him like a river of stars caused the large spears and Chang Ge to deflect, unable to cause any harm to him.

At the same time, thunder and dragon roars sounded together.

The purple Yang Thunder Dragon and the black Yin Thunder Dragon appeared at the same time, hovering around Lei Jun.

Yang Leilong probed its claws and caught Dong An and his big spear directly in its claws.

Yin Thunder Dragon also made the same move, grabbing Jiang Yuan on the other side with one claw.

For a moment, the two martial arts masters were unable to move.

The lightning flashes were all over the place, and the people around them who were about to start a battle were so shocked that they had to retreat one after another.

Anyone who dares not to retreat will be paralyzed on the spot.

No one was killed or injured at the scene.

Only Lei Jun, who reappeared in his original form after the starlight disappeared, calmly looked at Dong An and Jiang Yuan, who were held by Yang Lei Dragon and Yin Lei Dragon respectively:

"Generals, please be patient."
