Chapter 158: The Master's Last Name Is Qi
After saying that, Sun Hewu grabbed Qi Xuansu's shoulder and threw him away.
Qi Xuansu felt as if he was flying in the clouds and mist. When his feet landed, he was already standing on the observatory, next to Yao Pei with an expressionless face.
On the other side, Sun Hewu lifted Qi Jianyuan up again. After all, he was a heavenly being, and Qi Xuansu's punch could not be compared to Master Wan's punch, so Qi Jianyuan was only seriously injured and not dead yet.
Sun Hewu grabbed Qi Jianyuan's shoulders with both hands, shook him hard a few times, and heard a "crackling" sound, which seemed to smooth out the misplaced bones. Then he put him down again, reached out and patted his back, causing Qi Jianyuan to He spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Okay, go do your errands and don't cause trouble here. If there is a next time, I will kick you out." Sun Hewu said unceremoniously, "If you are not convinced, let Pei Xuanzhi and Qi Jiaozheng come over." Just look for me.”
Although there is no distinction between the deputy hall master and the assistant church leader, in many cases they cannot be judged purely on the basis of their positions.
Within the Taoist sect, it also depends on rank, qualifications, background, realm cultivation, etc. Just like Li Tianlan, he is only the second deputy hall master of Jinling Taoist Palace, but he is able to be in the same lineage as the real person in charge of the palace, Cihang, who is very close at hand, not only because of his position.
In terms of grades, Sun Hewu is a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, and Qi Jianyuan is only a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest. In terms of qualifications, Sun Hewu is a contemporary of the Sixth Generation Grandmaster, having gone through three generations of Laosu Lao, including the Fourth Generation Grandmaster, the Fifth Generation Grandmaster, and the Sixth Generation Grandmaster. In terms of realm cultivation, Sun Hewu could suppress Qi Jianyuan with one hand. In terms of position, Sun Hewu is the real person in charge of the Wanxiang Dao Palace at this time, and he has the final say in the Wanxiang Dao Palace.
Even if Qi Jiaozheng met Sun Hewu, he would still call him "Old Sun".
The reason why Sun Hewu failed to become Shenzhi Zhenren was mainly because he didn't care about these things. Just like Taoist Ji of Shuzhou Taoist Mansion, he was a figure like Xianyun Yehe in the Taoist sect. In fact, Qi Xuansu's previous wish was to be such a Taoist master.
Therefore, Sun Hewu had enough confidence to say this, and there was no problem at all.
Qi Jianyuan did not refute, but silently put away his sword.
On the other side, Yao Pei glanced at Qi Xuansu: "As I said before, fellow Taoist Qingxiao really knows how to recognize people, which is admirable."
Qi Xuansu was in no mood to talk. Apart from the lingering impression of the "Magic Sword", his mind was entirely focused on one thing. Why did Master leave Quanzhen Taoism and join Zhengyiyi? What happened to him and the Qi family?
It is unrealistic to say that he was forced to leave the Qi family after failing to compete for the position of the head of the family, because the master's level of cultivation is not high, and it is unlikely to be on par with Qi Jiaozheng, the master of Shenzhi.
It is impossible to say that my cultivation level was very high in the past, but later fell down due to other changes. The Taoist sect will not lower the grade of a Taoist priest because of a lack of cultivation, but will only lower the grade of a Taoist priest because of mistakes and defaults. This is also a guarantee system.
The master is only a fourth-grade Taoist priest, far away from the second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest.
Furthermore, if the master had a very high level of cultivation in the past and could even compete with Qi Jiaozheng for the position of being the master of knowledge, then the master would not be an unknown person. When Zhang Yuelu looked at his file, there was no way he wouldn't have the slightest reaction to his master's name.
It can be seen that the master was probably a relatively ordinary member of the Qi family in the past. Looking at Qi Jianyuan's attitude, the master should have fallen out with the Qi family. This is not a strange thing. Even Zhang Yuelu has had the idea of joining the Quanzhen Tao. For many people, family is both a help and a constraint. There must be a choice.
While he was talking, Sun Hewu came back again, interrupting Qi Xuansu's thoughts: "I heard you talk about those Jianghu things before, and I was a little skeptical at first, but now I have to believe it. You kid really doesn't have any martial ethics." 'It's a perfect match for you."
Qi Xuansu came back to his senses and smiled sheepishly: "I've caused trouble to the old master."
"It's no trouble." Sun Hewu waved his hand, "This is my responsibility as the acting master of the palace. Lao Shi entrusted the Dao Palace to me. No matter how I usually do, I have to shoulder the burden at this time. Again Yes, I probably understood it. The boy from the Qi family insulted your master. I remember that you were born in the lower palace, without a father or a mother. Master and disciple are like father and son. It is human nature for you to get angry and lose your temper. Our Taoist sect He is not a Neo-Confucian school, and he is not that unkind. Don't worry, Pei Xuanzhi is not a stingy person, and Qi Jiaozheng is not a person who protects his shortcomings. The character of these two people is still trustworthy. "
Qi Xuansu felt relieved and sighed secretly in his heart again. No wonder Zhang Yuelu said that this old man was a loyal elder. Since he returned to Taoism, although he has met many evil people, he has also met many good people like Sun Hewu, Pei Xiaolou, and Lei Xiaohuan. He doesn't really want to use moral standards to distinguish between good and evil. For him, what is good for me is good, and what is bad for me is evil.
Qi Xuansu looked at the reed field below again, and Qi Jianyuan had disappeared.
He knew that the conflict between the two was far from over. The old man could suppress it for a while, but not forever. It was impossible for him to kill Qi Jianyuan directly in public, and Qi Jianyuan would definitely not be convinced. Sooner or later, he would have to get it back, and the two of them might have to fight again in the future.
Thinking of this, Qi Xuansu subconsciously rubbed the "bell" hanging around his waist with his hand.
This is an imitation of the "Nine Yang Lihuo Shield". It is Qi Xuansu's last resort and can be regarded as a last resort.
However, Qi Xuansu believed that Qi Jianyuan also had the means to fight to the death or save his life. At first, he disdained to use them, probably because he didn't have the necessary mentality to deal with a congenital person. Later, he was suppressed by Qi Xuansu and had no chance to use them. When he finally decided to fight to the death, he was interrupted by Sun Hewu.
In the final analysis, Qi Jianyuan had too much psychological burden. It's not that he was wrong to be proud of his status, but he had to choose the occasion and the time. He had to win and win beautifully. Where in the world is there such a good thing?
Many spectators saw a high-level private fight at the Zhongyuan Festival celebration, and they felt satisfied and touched.
Most of the fourth-grade Taoist priests in Shangguan were shocked by Qi Xuansu's powerful strength. Those who didn't know thought that he was the Quanzhen Taoist genius Yao Pei who was on par with Zhang Yuelu and Li Changge. Those who knew the inside story began to re-examine Qi Xuansu. The core was only one point. No wonder Qi Xuansu was so young to become a fourth-grade Taoist priest. There is no false person under the great reputation, so naturally there is no limit to his future.
Several assistants had the same mentality as Yao Pei, and were more impressed by Zhang Yuelu's ability to identify people. As the saying goes, there are often good horses, but there are not often good horse trainers. Knowing and employing people is the first priority for those in power. During this period of time, Zhang Yuelu's employment of people has not had any major problems, at least he has not made a joke of being backstabbed by his subordinates. In terms of identifying people, the example of Qi Xuansu is also remarkable. For many high-quality Taoists who strictly adhere to neutrality between the three paths, this is a plus.
They are silent and will not easily express their true attitudes, but they all have a scale in their hearts.
Yao Pei knows this very well, so she keeps talking about it.
She regards Zhang Yuelu as an opponent. Although at their ages, they cannot participate in the competition for the position of the seventh-generation grand master, when they compete for the eighth-generation grand master, they will most likely face off. M..
As for the lower palace disciples, they were just watching the fun, but some of them heard a few words from the conversations of the high-ranking Taoists. After learning that Qi Xuansu was from the lower palace, they were more proud of it.
This is a natural position. The lower palace disciples with poor resources can beat the children of the rich families, and they should be proud of it.
Many times, fame is accumulated little by little. Qi Xuansu beat Qi Jianyuan and Zhang Yuelu beat Li Tianzhen. It is the same reason.
Soon, the Zhongyuan Festival celebration tonight is coming to an end, and everyone began to disperse one after another.
Sun Hewu is going back to Kunyuan, and Qi Xuansu and Yao Pei are going back to Zhenyuan together.
There are street lamps hanging on both sides of the road, which are shaped like lanterns, but the material of the lampshade has changed to glass, and the light is brighter. As they walk, the faces of the two people are reflected in light and dark.
Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Fellow Daoist Yao, how much do you know about the Qi family?"
Yao Pei seemed to have expected Qi Xuansu to ask this question and answered directly, "I don't know much about the people of Qi Zhenren's generation. Why don't you ask Qi Niang? Or ask Zhenren Pei. They are about the same age and should know something."
Qi Xuansu sighed.
It's useless to ask.
