Chapter 71 Two Futures
Qiniang held Xiao Yin and pointed the scripture lens at Xiao Yin, but she was outside the screen. Only her voice was heard, but she was not seen.
When Qi Xuansu saw Xiao Yin, he became kind and no longer had any anger. He asked, "Xiao Yin, do you miss me?"
Xiao Yin rolled his eyes and answered loudly, "I do."
Qi Xuansu asked again, "What do you miss?"
Xiao Yin is a guy who can please people: "I think about you every day before going to bed."
Qi Xuansu knew it was fake, but he was still happy: "Okay, okay, okay."
Xiao Yin asked, "Do you have any New Year's money?"
Qi Xuansu was embarrassed. Although he was very powerful outside, he really didn't have much money. After all, Qi Xuansu's status was here. Whatever he did, the Taoist sect was responsible for providing it. There was not much money to spend, and he didn't care about it.
Xiao Yin pouted: "I won't miss you without the New Year's money."
Qi Xuansu said: "Of course there is New Year's money, let Qi Niang give it to you, okay?"
Qi Niang, who had been off-screen, interrupted: "Why? The New Year's money I give is my intention, not yours. If you want to be sincere, use your own money. You are such a big person, do you still want to spend my money?"
Xiao Yin followed up: "That's right, that's right."
Qi Niang reached out and rubbed Xiao Yin's head, praising: "Good boy, I will give you a big red envelope later."
Xiao Yin hugged Qi Niang's neck and giggled.
Qi Xuansu said helplessly: "I'll write a letter for you."
Xiao Yin thought about it and nodded: "Okay!"
Qi Xuansu teased her: "I gave you New Year's money, how do you want to express it?"
Xiao Yin asked: "How do you want to express it?"
Qi Xuansu said: "Call me dad."
Xiao Yin did not refuse, nor did he agree at once, but stretched out a finger: "One hundred Taiping coins for one call."
To be fair, this price is really not expensive. Xiao Yin is at least a master in the Wuliang stage, a dignified third-grade Youyi Taoist priest. Under normal circumstances, it is unrealistic to expect a high-level mage to call you dad with one hundred Taiping coins.
It's just that Qi Xuansu can't even take out one hundred Taiping coins. Although he can mobilize millions of Taiping coins, he is a gigolo in terms of personal property.
However, Qi Xuansu also knows how to make a profit without any effort: "How about this, I'll owe you the money first, and you can call me and see."
Xiao Yin was not fooled: "No, I won't buy on credit."
Qi Xuansu touched his body, took out the "Gui Zang Lantern", and said: "I'll use this as a guarantee, okay? Haven't you always wanted it?"
Xiao Yin looked at it carefully for a few times and remembered that she almost got into trouble last time when she wanted to steal this broken lamp. It first became hotter and hotter, and then it stuck to her hand tightly and she couldn't throw it away. That would have been fine, but there was also an unknown force constantly injected into her body, almost choking her to death.
This old lamp doesn't look like a good thing. ..
In the end, she was scolded by Qi Xuansu.
Xiao Yin pouted: "I don't want it."
At this moment, the "Gui Zang Lantern" actually reacted to Xiao Yin. Normally, the "Gui Zang Lantern" was in the "extinguished" state, but now the light was on.
In an instant, Qi Xuansu's senses were connected to the "Gui Zang Lantern". No Xiao Yin, no Qi Niang, and everything around them disappeared.
In Qi Xuansu's sight, or in Qi Xuansu's perception, he saw a huge black shadow.
That was not the sacred mountain that Qi Xuansu was familiar with. It looked a bit like a land tornado, and a bit like an inverted black mountain.
After the black shadow appeared, everything was distorted, like a whirlpool, spinning and being sucked into the black shadow. But the black shadow itself was not affected at all, still standing, and it seemed to be suppressing the whirlpool.
Qi Xuansu just took a look and felt that the black shadow had absorbed his sight and could no longer move away. At the same time, the black shadow tightly grasped his soul, making him unable to break free.
Qi Xuansu even had an illusion that when he was looking at the black shadow, the black shadow was also
looking at him.
Just like a sentence that Westerners often say, when you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you.
After a moment, the black shadow became clearer and clearer, and Qi Xuansu finally saw the true face of the black shadow.
Qi Xuansu thought the black shadow was a tornado and an inverted mountain, but in fact, it was neither.
It was a pitch-black towering tree.
Qi Xuansu recognized the origin of this black tree at a glance.
He had seen the seed form of this black tree in Lingshan Cave Heaven, and he had also seen the complete form of this black tree in Ghost Country Cave Heaven.
That was the Emperor Willow.
It seemed that the abyss of the vortex was the underworld, and the Emperor Willow suppressed the cracks in the underworld.
The distance between Qi Xuansu and the Emperor Willow was still getting closer, and Qi Xuansu could see more details.
The Emperor Willow was like a giant pillar that reached the sky, with a huge crown covering the sky and the sun, and the drooping willow branches were as thick as the waist of an adult man.
When the distance was far enough, Qi Xuansu could barely see the whole picture, but as the distance kept getting closer, Qi Xuansu could no longer see the whole picture.
When Qi Xuansu came to the foot of the Emperor Willow and looked up, the roots above the ground were taller than people, and the upper part of the tree was almost completely hidden in the gray mist.
Qi Xuansu's figure began to rise, along the trunk of the Emperor Willow all the way up.
This is certainly not the Ghost Kingdom Cave, nor the real Emperor Willow.
But Qi Xuansu also found it difficult to explain what was happening now. After all, the "Gui Zang Lantern" had once allowed him to return to the Lingshan Cave Heaven in the past, and he personally opened up his own opportunities and adventures. He did not dare to guarantee what changes the "Gui Zang Lantern" would bring.
Soon, Qi Xuansu once again came to the top of the tree canopy of the Emperor Willow.
The last time he came here, he took a flat crown from here, and forged an indissoluble bond with the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven. Not only could he summon the three major yin objects, but he also simulated a small Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven in his own divine domain, including the Emperor Willow. ..
At this time, there was no flat crown on the crown of the Emperor Willow, only a lamp.
It was the "Gui Zang Lantern" that could communicate the future and the past.
The "Gui Zang Lantern" was materialized.
At this time, the "Gui Zang Lantern" had been lit, and various scenes were illuminated in the light.
The sky was dark, and within the range illuminated by the light, countless "lines" extended out, "lines" composed of fragments of pictures, and each "line" had the figures of Qi Xuansu and Xiao Yin, some "lines" stopped abruptly, and some "lines" formed a closed loop.
Qi Xuansu looked carefully for a moment and found that these "lines" were actually predictions of the future.
In one "line", Qi Xuansu participated in the internal struggle of the high-level Taoist sect, but failed. With the fall of Donghua Zhenren, Qi Xuansu turned from a Taoist sect's Canzhi Zhenren into an anti-Taoist overnight. Beichen Hall sent people to arrest Qi Xuansu and put him on trial. However, Qi Xuansu refused to accept the trial and refused to surrender. When the Taoist priest of Beichen Hall came to the door, Qi Xuansu directly killed the Taoist priest of Beichen Hall who was responsible for arresting him on the spot, and then killed all the way out, killing people in a river of blood, and fled overseas.
However, such Qi Xuansu would definitely not have a good end. The Taoist sect dispatched immortals and immortal objects, and finally intercepted the fleeing Qi Xuansu in Nanyang, and successfully killed the rebellious Qi Xuansu here. Jinque ordered to chop off Qi Xuansu's head and send it to the Taoist temples, and dug out the "Heart of the Longevity Stone" and displayed it in the collection room of Jinque to warn future generations.
The name Qi Xuansu became another Taoist rebel after Chen Shuhua. Qi Xuansu participated in the killing of Chen Shuhua, and now the two have the same fate, which is very ironic.
As Qi Xuansu's Taoist partner, Zhang Yuelu was caught on the spot when she participated in the meeting, and the supervision of Zhang Yuelu was the strictest. After the trial, Zhang Yuelu was sentenced to 130 years in prison for betraying the Taoist sect, selling Taoist secrets, dereliction of duty, and dereliction of duty. He was imprisoned in Longgong Dongtian. Zhang Yuelu refused to plead guilty and eventually chose to commit suicide.
On this "line", Xiao Yin, as Qi Xuansu's adopted daughter, naturally fell with Qi Xuansu. She was arrested and tortured, and then imprisoned in the Ghost Kingdom Dongtian. The Taoists used nine special chains to pass through her body, so that
she could not leave the Ghost Kingdom Dongtian half a step.
In this situation, perhaps suffering makes people grow up. Xiao Yin actually grew up, and finally changed from a short-handed little girl to a graceful girl, and then to a young woman. Finally, she broke free from her shackles and escaped from the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven. After several plans, he successfully sneaked into Yujing, stole Qi Xuansu's "Heart of the Immortal Stone" and head, and buried it secretly by the Xingye Lake. In order not to be discovered by others, no monument was erected.
On another "line", Qi Xuansu also participated in the internal struggle of the Taoist high-level, but this time it was a great success. Donghua Zhenren became the Grand Master, Qi Xuansu was the Junior Master, and after Donghua Zhenren ascended, Qi Xuansu successfully inherited the position of Grand Master. The two generations of Grand Masters, Masters and Apprentices, became a good story in Taoism.
After Qi Xuansu came to power, the first thing he did was to let Zhang Yuelu serve as the Grand Master's wife and the Grand Master of Zhengyi Dao, and entrusted her with important tasks. At the same time, in order to stabilize people's hearts, he also agreed to let Li Changge serve as the Grand Master of Taiping Dao. However, after Qi Xuansu secured his position as the Grand Master, he repeatedly weakened Li Changge with various excuses. Finally, he used Li Tianzhen's various illegal activities as an excuse to start a major case, implicated Li Changge, and imprisoned Li Tianzhen and Li Changge.
After the trial, Li Tianzhen was sentenced to death for multiple crimes and executed on the Demon Suppression Platform. Li Changge was removed from his position as the Deputy Master and sentenced to eternal imprisonment, and was suppressed in the Demon Suppression Well Cave Heaven. Li Zhuyu and Li Qingnu replaced Li Changge and Li Tianzhen.
Afterwards, Qi Xuansu purged a number of political enemies, including some members of the Zhang and Yao families, and completely consolidated his position. Then he launched a war against foreign countries, defeated the remaining forces of Buddhism, and launched a northern expedition on the southern continent to attack the Steam Gospel of the northern continent. Finally, with the great victory in the foreign war, he began to implement internal reforms, led by Zhang Yuelu, and Qi Xuansu escorted him. ..
On this "line", Xiao Yin, as Qi Xuansu's adopted daughter, naturally followed Qi Xuansu. As the only daughter of Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, Xiao Yin, who was renamed Qi Xiaoyin, was loved unprecedentedly. No matter how high or low the status of the Taoists were, they all wanted to curry favor with this little princess. Xiao Yin truly realized her dream of being able to walk sideways in the Taoist sect.
Under such circumstances, Xiao Yin never returned to the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven, and lived in Yujing all her life. She never grew up in her life. Until Qi Xuansu ascended to heaven, Xiao Yin still looked like a child with short arms and legs, and maintained the mentality of a child.
