Chapter 74 Dreaming Clouds

In fact, Qiniang is right, others are really not that good.

Based on her family background and ability and qualifications, if she develops in the Taoist sect with peace of mind, she will be a knowledgeable person at least. Even if she does not choose to develop in the Taoist sect and hangs out in various secret societies, she is still a very special one.

Take Wu Guangbi, the leader of the "Tianting" avenue, for example. He is indeed very remarkable. He is equal to Qiniang, but his influence is only limited to "Tianting". After leaving "Tianting", other members of the secret society He won't recognize him.

Qiniang is different. She can actually hold two positions and become the leader of two secret societies at the same time. Moreover, these two secret societies are not allies, which is very unusual.

Therefore, it makes sense that other members of the Privy Council cannot be compared with Qiniang. Even if these members of the Privy Council have other identities, they only have two identities. Qiniang has three identities including the Yao family.

Qi Xuansu has always had a feeling that in addition to the currently known identity, Qiniang also has a fourth unknown identity - Qiniang has the potential to be the mastermind behind the scenes.

Qi Xuansu has seldom dreamed about Lingshan Cave recently. Not long ago, he had another dream, which was bizarre and bizarre, but full of absurdity.

In the dream, Qiniang suddenly told him that she was actually Taiping Daobu's secret agent in the Yao family. Her real name was not Yao Qiniang, but Li Changqi. The word "qi" was a homonym for "qi". She was the sister of the national preceptor Li Changgeng. She is the sister of Li Changge, the junior national master, and Qi Xuansu should not be called Qi Xuansu. As the adopted son of Li Changqi, he is from the generation with the character "you", so he should be called Li Youdao, which means wealth.

Qi Xuansu found that it was not unacceptable to him, and he was not even shocked, because that was how Qiniang felt to others. Of course, apart from the name, although the name "Making Money in a Right Way" fits Qiniang's style very well, Qi Xuansu cannot accept it at all.

Qi Xuansu dispelled these messy thoughts: "I understand, as long as a heavenly being in the immeasurable stage doesn't match up with the proprietor, shopkeeper, and cook of the inn, there won't be much problem. In terms of intelligence, the Qingping Society can still be trusted. of."

Qiniang emphasized again: "Although 'Dream Walking Cloud' is an infinite stage, it is only one step away from the creation stage. It can be called..."

She thought for a while: "Half-step of creation."

Qi Xuansu couldn't help laughing and said: "My dear mother, where did you learn the new words? Have you read the playbook recently? Are you still half-way through creation, are there still infinite small perfections and infinite great perfections? You might as well Forget about dividing the infinite stage into nine-layered buildings.”

Don't hide your sarcasm.

Anyway, Qiniang is not here, so I can't help him. I don't know when the next meeting will be.

Qiniang became angry and said: "I said half a step is half a step, do you understand or do I understand? You, a little heavenly being in the carefree stage, dare to question me, a fake immortal like me?"

Qi Xuansu became more serious and said: "I heard that there was no such thing as a pseudo-immortal at all. After the creation stage, there are immortals. It is because there are so many people like you that another pseudo-immortal stage has been created."

Qiniang suddenly stopped talking, and then slowly took a few steps back. One hand was still holding the fish charm that maintained the light screen, and the other hand was gesturing towards the light screen between the two of them, as if looking for an angle.

Qi Xuansu was a little confused.

Then Qiniang suddenly stretched out her hand, and saw a palm sticking out of a large sleeve embroidered with copper money patterns, passing through the light curtain, and slapped Qi Xuansu from the air.

Qi Xuansu was a little confused.

It hurts, but it doesn't hurt. No matter how hard a mother teaches her son, this slap is as hard as it is. Not to mention Qi Xuansu, a heavenly being, even an half-grown child doesn't take it seriously.

The key is that Qi Xuansu has never seen such a mysterious method.

Seeing that Qi Xuansu was stunned, Qiniang lost a lot of her anger and snorted coldly: "You are becoming more and more unruly. It seems that I am too indulgent to you on weekdays. I heard that there is a sour man in the Confucian sect who recently wrote a book about something. "Disciple Regulations", you really should read it carefully."

Qi Xuansu came back to his senses, looked solemn, and said in a deep voice: "Is this a half-step to immortality?"

Qiniang was a little embarrassed by this "half-step" statement, because Taoist sects did not have such a statement. After being pointed out by Qi Xuansu, Qiniang felt a little embarrassed like an adult who was caught peeking at a child's comic book, so she couldn't help but curse: "Get out of here." Gungun, hurry up and get to the overpass for me. You have to arrive within half an hour. If you don't arrive after the deadline, I will deduct a thousand merit points from you."

With that, Qiniang ended the conversation.

Qi Xuansu immediately broke through, no longer showing a serious look on his face, he couldn't help but laugh wildly: "Half step for creation, half step for immortality. Well, Li Changge is half step for immeasurable, and when I was in Wanxiang Dao Palace, it was half step for carefreeness, whatever Half a step."

After a while, Qi Xuansu regained his composure.

In front of Gao Mingyin, Ke Qingqing and others, he is the cold-faced and ruthless Chief Qi. In front of Zhang Yuelu, he was Qi Tianyuan, who was calm and reliable but occasionally frivolous and unruly. In front of Qiniang, he was just a child who was free to laugh, yell and curse.

Three faces, no conflict.

Human beings are inherently multi-faceted. A ferocious villain with bloody hands can also be a loving father in front of his children, and a man who is a subordinate to others.

Just like Qiniang, in front of Qi Xuansu, she was the informal, stingy, vulgar philistine old lady. But in front of outsiders, it is Master Yao who is as enigmatic as Wu Guangbi, the leader of the "Heavenly Court", who is like a fairy descending to the mortal world.

There is also Zhang Yuelu, who is calm and powerful on weekdays and has a divine light, but when he is alone with Qi Xuansu, he is still a little different.

Even Yao Pei, who seemed like a piece of wood, had two faces. One was like a puppet, with no joy or sorrow. He occasionally had emotional fluctuations, but they were fleeting. The other was as sharp as a blade out of its sheath. He lived in seclusion and rarely went out. He occasionally showed up and killed decisively, which was quite like the charm of Donghua Zhenren.

Qi Xuansu turned back to his usual Qi Xuansu. He was not awe-inspiring without anger, but as his cultivation and status gradually increased, he also developed a bit of illusory "qi". When he was serious, he was very scary. For example, when he went to capture Gao Mingyin, a group of people were shocked by him and could not speak. But in front of Qi Niang, it was difficult for him to be serious, and he could easily be slapped back to his original form by Qi Niang.

Qi Niang was the kind of person that the five generations of great masters hated the most. She was sloppy and not serious, and she tarnished the image of Taoism.

Qi Xuansu thought so, changed into the newly bought clothes, put on the "white fox face" mask, chose the face of a young man, and used the identity of Wei Wugui again.

"Golden Wrong Knife" Wei Wugui.

He put on a hat to cover his face, and took out his sword. He hesitated whether to use "Fei Ying Bai" when necessary. After thinking again and again, he still felt that it could be used.

Because of the Taoist creation project, various spiritual objects and treasures have gotten rid of the past manual workshop model and started to be mass-produced like "Shenlong Hand Cannon". For example, the "Purple Blue Double Swallow" used by Chang Sanye who assassinated Zhang Yuelu was designed by Taiping Dao in the first year of Jiu Shi to celebrate the ascension of the new emperor. A total of 365 sets were cast, which is the number of Zhoutian. The same is true for the pair of "Fei Ying" and "Fei Ying Bai". It is not a solitary piece with only one set. Even if he used it, he could not conclude that Qi Xuansu and Wei Wugui were the same person based on this knife.

Qi Xuansu quietly left the crowded Dijing General Store and walked towards the overpass in the south city.

The Great Wei court wanted to build four outer cities, but only built one southern city in the end. The three outer cities that followed were all built by the Great Xuan court. The reason why the other three outer cities were not built was because the Wei court was short of money. The reason why the South City was built first was because the South City, which was still the suburbs at that time, was the most prosperous. The Shanchuan Altar and the Tiandi Altar were both in the south of the city.

In other words, before Emperor Shizong of Wei, the emperor had to go out of the city to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth. Now these two places are in the city, in the South City.

The so-called "Sky Bridge" is located in the northwest of the Tiandi Altar. It is a white jade single-hole high arch bridge running north-south. This bridge is the only bridge for the emperor to go to the Tiandi Altar to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth. It means the bridge to the sky, or the bridge of the emperor, so it is called "Sky Bridge".

Because only the emperor can walk on it, it is usually closed.

The Sky Bridge in a narrow sense is naturally the bridge of the emperor, but the Sky Bridge in a broad sense refers to the vast area around the Sky Bridge. In the early years, before the expansion of the South City, it was a water town and swamp. Now it is much better than before. A stone road has been built, and some street performers will gather here, but after nightfall, it is very deserted.

The Imperial Capital is large enough to accommodate two secret societies to decide the winner.

After Qi Xuansu left the Imperial Capital headquarters, he relied on his celestial cultivation to quietly enter the South City from the inner city, then walked south along Zhuque Street, and then turned into a small road.

At this time, Qi Xuansu also figured out that the Qingping Society deliberately changed the plan temporarily. In this way, even if the "Inn" got the news in advance, it would be useless. If the "Inn" took action based on the news received in advance, it would be lured away from the mountain, and the Qingping Society could take advantage of the situation and attack from the east.

Even Qi Xuansu and other B-level members were not aware of these situations, only the A-level members could know.

The reason is also very simple. The world is huge, and a person is very small. The "cook" of the "inn" can lead people to ambush precisely on the road that "Qingshanshi" must pass through, which means that there is a traitor inside the Qingping Society, and the whereabouts of "Qingshanshi" are leaked. The remaining Class A members are not fools. Naturally, they know to prevent the traitor before catching the traitor, or to take a two-pronged approach, so there is this temporary change of plan.

If there is a mistake this time, the scope of suspicion will be much narrower. There are only so many Class A members in total, and not all Class A members are involved in this matter and know about it. The Class A members who planned this matter are naturally the most suspicious.

Just thinking about it, the overpass is already in sight.

A person appeared in front of Qi Xuansu out of thin air, wearing a simple Taoist robe, with a bronze mask in the style of ancient witchcraft on his face, and there is no hostility.

Qi Xuansu immediately understood that this person was the "accomplice" of the Qingping Society.

Seeing the mask on his face, he also roughly understood that the Qingping Society and the legendary great wizard really have some kind of inheritance relationship.

The man clasped his fists and said, "Meng Xingyun."

Qi Xuansu returned the greeting and said, "Golden Wrong Knife."
