Chapter 51 Little Ghost Old Immortal
Zhang Yuelu actually doesn't like this title, but she can't say much to the assistants of Tianshi. After all, Tianshi has already accepted the title "Old Master" by default. Following this logic, she is not the eldest lady. She can't Go beyond the Celestial Master to deny the title "Miss".
However, this is not the Da Zhen Mansion after all, and Zhang Yuelu still has the right to express his own opinion: "In general, it is better to be more formal."
Lin Yuanmiao nodded and said, "Okay, Miss."
Zhang Yuelu was silent for a moment: "Forget it, you can call me whatever you like."
Xiao Yin put his head to the brain and asked, "Do you need to address your job title in a formal occasion?"
Zhang Yuelu glanced at her in slight surprise: "You know quite a lot."
"That's natural." Xiao Yin said proudly, "Old Lin, learn from this. In the future, don't call me eldest lady, call me Zhang Zhizhi."
Zhang Yuelu kept these two treasures silent for a long time.
Xiao Yin didn't like to fly to the sky and escape to the earth. Although she could fly, she still climbed up the railing on her hands and feet, stood on it, opened her hands, faced the sea, and recited loudly: "Ah, the sun... ah, sunflower, ah, You... are tired, ah, you are counting... ah!"
Zhang Yuelu asked: "Who did you learn this from?"
"Those red-haired and yellow-haired ones," Xiao Yin said, "That's how they read poems."
"Is this also called poetry? What about the rhythm of oblique and oblique rhymes?" Zhang Yuelu didn't agree - her conservatism was not limited to her clothes, but in all aspects. She was such a smart person and could learn the Dacheng method, but she couldn't speak Western. , it can be seen that it is not that you cannot learn, but that you are unwilling to learn.
Xiao Yin opened his hands, kept his balance, walked up and down the railing, and said, "Since Zhang Zhizhi doesn't like it, then I won't read it."
"By the way, Zhang Zhizhi, what are we eating today? Is there any seafood? I heard that there is dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground. I have already eaten dragon meat. Is there any donkey meat?"
Zhang Yuelu finally realized how Qi Xuansu occasionally got irritable when facing Xiao Yin. This child had a cute side, but he was also quite annoying sometimes.
Zhang Yuelu said: "Xiao Yin, if you dare to call me Zhang Zhizhi again, I will call you Yin Dabai from now on."
Xiao Yin curled his lips: "You said it yourself. You address your position in formal occasions, and now you lose your temper. It's boring."
Zhang Yuelu could only use his trump card: "If you say one more thing, I will send you back to the cave of the ghost country right now."
Xiao Yin quickly covered her mouth with her hands: "No more, no more."
Xiao Yin is quite capable of distinguishing the serious from the serious. Qi Xuansu always talks about being tough, but in reality he is reluctant to strike hard and mostly uses scaring. Zhang Yuelu usually doesn't say harsh words, but once he does, he means what he says and won't make fun of you.
Xiao Yin doesn't want to go back to the ghost country Cave Sky. It's like a cage, lifeless and meaningless. It's so interesting outside. There are all kinds of people, black hair, yellow hair, red hair, and so on. There are all kinds of delicious food, flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the water. She is not willing to go back. Whoever wants to go back will go back.
Interrupted by Xiao Yin, Zhang Yuelu almost forgot about his business and said: "Old Lin, I wanted to ask you just now, have you remembered what special conditions are needed for Tongzhen Palace to appear in this world?"
Although Lin Yuanmiao lost most of his memory, Zhang Yuelu felt that with the recovery of his realm, Lin Yuanmiao's memory could gradually recover. This was not the first time such a conversation had occurred.
Lin Yuanmiao thought seriously for a moment and said: "The Queen of Heaven is kind-hearted. The original intention of the Sea Dragon Palace is to save people, so the Sea Dragon Palace appears with the storm to rescue sea travelers hit by the storm. It only saves people and also gives gifts." . But Lin Lingsu is not so kind. Tongzhen Palace is a hiding place and a treasure trove for him. Naturally, it will not save people. I can only vaguely recall that the appearance of Tongzhen Palace will be accompanied by some kind of maritime disaster. "
Zhang Yuelu said thoughtfully: "Since it is a disaster, it will probably not appear on normal shipping lanes."
The reason is simple. A normal waterway usually means safety. If it is unsafe, there will not be a large number of ships passing through it, so naturally it cannot be opened into a waterway.
That is some remote sea areas, or even undeveloped waterways.
Daomen once drew a sea map, but the sea is too big and exceeds the total area of the land, so Daomen cannot explore everything in detail. There are still many unexplored areas that are still shrouded in fog.
These places are naturally very dangerous for ordinary ships, and even heavenly beings cannot guarantee that they can return safely. But for an immortal immortal, it is certainly nothing. Lin Lingsu most likely set up the cave in Such places. .
Zhang Yuelu carefully analyzed the respective advantages of the enemy and ourselves. Qian Xiangyun's advantage was that she had been here for nearly a year, and her exploration progress was much faster than Zhang Yuelu's. Zhang Yuelu's advantage is that Lin Yuanmiao's memory is gradually recovering, which can save a lot of exploration.
Zhang Yuelu is more inclined to find the location of Tongzhen Palace in advance, then set up a net and wait for Qian Xiangyun to fall into the trap.
A defecting deputy palace master has a very bad influence and must be arrested and brought to justice.
While the two were talking, a giant whale suddenly jumped out of the sea in the distance. Although its size was far smaller than the legendary giant Kun, it was still very terrifying. It was a complete behemoth, more than ten feet long, as if A large ship that can be submerged in the sea.
Except for dragons and some peerless monsters, this is already the largest existence in the sea.
Zhang Yuelu looked up and was a little surprised: "Are there whales in the near sea? It's rare."
Xiao Yin said excitedly: "Master Zhang, let's go whale fishing. I haven't eaten whale yet."
Zhang Yuelu ignored her. She wanted to eat everything. There was nothing she didn't want to eat.
Lin Yuanmiao said: "It's really abnormal. It reminds me of something."
Zhang Yuelu asked immediately: "What is it?"
Lin Yuanmiao hesitated: "There seem to be many whales around Tongzhen Palace."
Zhang Yuelu thought for a while: "You mean, whales may guide the way to Tongzhen Palace?"
Lin Yuanmiao said: "I can go and explore."
Zhang Yuelu pondered for a moment, nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Lin Yuanmiao's figure flashed away.
The next moment, Lin Yuanmiao appeared on the back of the whale, and then sank into the sea with the whale.
On the other side, Qi Xuansu was facing a violent storm.
This storm did not come from Wang Jiaohe or Chen Shuhua, but from a great master.
As we all know, there are three kinds of great masters in Taoism. These three kinds of great masters are all first-grade innocent Taoist priests, but they are distinguished in their positions.
The highest one is the deputy headmaster, known as the three masters, who are the leaders of the three sects second only to the headmaster.
The second is the Pingzhang Dazhenren, who holds a real position, holds real power, participates in the Jinque meeting, and is above the Canzhi Zhenren, such as Zhang Qihan, Lan Hexu, and Jiang Hedao.
Finally, there are ordinary Dazhenren, also known as whiteboard Dazhenren, which is an honorary title given by the Taoist sect to many respected Canzhi Zhenren after they retire from office and retire to the mountains. It is also called a one-level retirement. It is usually written as Dazhenren and read as Laozhenren.
This Dazhenren is an old Zhenren who has retired.
However, the power of these old Zhenren is quite large. After all, those who can be named Dazhenren have top qualifications and prestige. With so many disciples and old friends, their remaining power is not diminished and should not be underestimated. In addition, they are no longer in office and will not participate in internal struggles. There are not so many interests involved, and few people are willing to make deadly enemies with them. Therefore, they usually rely on their seniority and regard themselves as seniors. They often go to Jinque to report and complain, which makes many real people in charge of the house, the chief, and the second seat feel headache.
During the New Year and other festivals, the current senior officials of the Daofu in various places have to visit and comfort these old real people in person. Although these old real people have retired, their enthusiasm for participating in the affairs of the Daomen is very high.
Some people do have something to say, which makes people think deeply. Some people have left their posts for many years and do not know the current specific situation very well. Many times, they can't help but hear from others, or complain, and have the suspicion of speaking out.
Objectively speaking, these old real people have formed a supervisory force. But on the other hand, these old real people will also become the backers of some people, or become weapons for some people to attack others.
For example, a second seat is dissatisfied with the real person in charge of the house, but it is not easy to directly tear his face with the real person in charge of the house, so he secretly asks these old real people to attack the real person in charge of the house. Or report to Jinque. This is not a report from an ordinary Taoist priest. Jinque has to take it seriously and respond to the report from a first-class innocent Taoist priest. Or tell him directly in person, just take advantage of your seniority and scold him in person.
It is not right to beat or scold the real person in charge of the mansion. These great real people have no positions anymore. They are not afraid of you. Can you kill him? They are of higher rank than you. They are first-class innocent Taoist priests. They have all served as the head of the palace, the head of the mansion, and the head of the hall. Their status is not lower than yours. And they are not just one person, but many people. They take advantage of their seniority, the law does not punish the masses, and the punishment does not apply to the doctor. These three are all taken, and they can stand on the high ground of morality, which often makes the real person in charge of the mansion very embarrassed.
In short, in most cases, the real people in power currently avoid the old real people who have retired. They don't want to meet them, nor do they want to communicate too much. If they can't get along well, they will stay away from them and worship them as Buddhas.
Qi Xuansu naturally didn't want to make himself unhappy and provoke these old real people who are comparable to the clean officials. But he didn't expect that the grandfather of the young master Sun he had captured was an old Taoist priest.
This was like stirring up a hornet's nest. If the great Taoist priest Lan was still alive, he could naturally suppress it. They were all sixth-generation disciples of the "He" generation. There was no such thing as taking advantage of their seniority, let alone considering themselves as seniors. They were all first-class innocent Taoist priests, and no one was superior to the other. Perhaps the great Taoist priest Lan had more experience, so as long as the great Taoist priest Lan showed up, he would not dare to cause trouble.
But the great Taoist priest Lan was not there. Wang Jiaohe and Chen Shuhua clearly wanted to see Qi Xuansu's joke.
So Qi Xuansu was going to be in trouble.
This old Taoist priest Sun called out Qi Xuansu by name at the gate of the Water Palace and asked him to come out and give him an explanation. His words were very unpleasant. For example, when he was the second deputy palace master, Qi Xuansu was not born yet. When he was the head of the palace, he was not as arrogant as Qi Xuansu. A small eighth-generation disciple, is he really going to heaven? Is he so unruly when he succeeds?
