Chapter 110: Shangqing Palace(1/2)
() The fifth update today, the third update.
——————————————————————————————
The onlookers on the street saw the Shangqing Palace disciples leaving, and they were gone in the blink of an eye.
Liu Xia put Tian Quan on his shoulders and walked towards Xuan Jing.
Xuan Jing bit her lip, her heart was like a deer, her pretty face was slightly red, and she didn't dare to raise her head.
"Thank you, young hero, for your help. Xuan Jing is very grateful."
With that said, he was about to salute Liu Xia.
Liu Xia hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "It's a small effort, not worth mentioning. Let's go and see your senior brother's injury first."
When the two of them entered Tongfu Inn, the waiter looked at the mess in the hall with a frown, and was cleaning up there.
"Boy, come here."
The waiter walked over with his head hanging.
Liu Xia took out a piece of silver from his arms and handed it to him: "Is this enough for your losses?"
The waiter was stunned for a moment. That ingot of silver was a full fifty taels, and he smiled happily and said, "That's enough, that's enough."
"Go get a basin of water and bring it to my room."
"Okay, little one, go get it done right away."
The waiter went to the kitchen happily.
Liu Xia carried the unconscious Yuan Jingzi on his shoulders and sent him to his room on the second floor.
At this moment, Yuan Jingzi’s friends had already dispersed.
Liu Xia checked his injuries, took out a healing potion and gave it to him to drink.
After a while, Yuan Jingzi faintly woke up.
The waiter brought the water and left.
"Go and wash up. I see you're crying like a tabby cat."
Liu Xia looked back at Xuan Jing and said with a smile.
Xuan Jing nodded shyly and turned to wash her face.
"Thank you for your help, brother. If it weren't for you, my junior sister and I would have suffered a lot today."
"It's okay, how do you feel?"
Yuan Jingzi sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and inspected his injuries. After a while, he raised his head and said, "It's much better now. I don't know what you call me, brother?"
At this time, Xuan Jing walked over cutely and said happily: "Brother, he is Liu Xia."
Yuan Jingzi was suddenly stunned, staring, and was speechless for a long time.
"Are you really Headmaster Liu?"
Xuan Jingzi asked hurriedly.
Liu Xia nodded slightly.
"Infinite Heavenly Lord, haha, I have heard the name of Master Liu a lot in the past few days. The battle at Shenjian Villa is still fresh in my memory. In my dreams, I always wanted to see the heroic figure of Master Liu, but I didn't expect to see it today. It's really three lives.
I'm so lucky."
Yuan Jingzi said excitedly.
"It's just a waste of fame, not worth mentioning."
Liu Xia smiled modestly.
"Headmaster Liu is a humble gentleman, and I really admire him."
Yuan Jingzi smiled.
"You and I are of the same age, why should we be so polite? To be honest, I came to Shangqing Palace this time to ask for something from Taoist Chongxu. I wonder what Taoist Chongxu is like?"
Liu Xia asked straight to the point.
Although Jian Yun Sect is a northwest sect, it was only a second-rate sect in the past. There was very little contact between Shang Qing Palace and Jian Yun Sect. Therefore, Liu Xia had not personally met the leader of Shang Qing Palace, Taoist Priest Chongxu.
"I feel ashamed to say that I am a disciple of Xuan Jing of Shangqing Palace. I am not very qualified. I have only met the master three times since I started. However, I do know a little about the form of Shangqing Palace."
Yuan Jingzi smiled awkwardly.
"Brother Taoist, even if you say so, you can guess my purpose of coming."
Liu Xia said very frankly.
"It's a long story. There are many disciples in the Shangqing Palace and it has a long history. Therefore, there are many factions in the palace and the divisions are clear. Everyone seems to be harmonious on weekdays, but in fact, there are also turbulent undercurrents behind the scenes. I heard a few days ago that there were
In the Sanqing Palace, various factions in the palace were quarreling over the matter of Headmaster Liu. Headmaster Chongxu did not make any statement. So everyone is guessing what will happen after you come here this time."
When Xuan Jingzi said this, he couldn't help but frowned.
Liu Xia was silent at this moment. He was the headmaster of the Jian Yun Sect. The maximum number of permanent disciples in the Jian Yun Sect in the past was only three thousand. Even so, there were many factions in the sect, and there had been many attempts to gain the position of the head teacher.
precedent.
Shangqing Palace has a long history, and its disciples are said to number one hundred thousand. If they can really be harmonious, it will be damned.
"In fact, there is no need to worry, Headmaster Liu. Although I have never dealt with Taoist Chongxu, I heard from my master Xuanxuanzi that Taoist Chongxu is an upright man and has a broad mind. He has always had a very high reputation in Shangqing Palace.
He is highly respected. He will not sit idly by this time."
Yuan Jingzi comforted her kindly.
"Then let me borrow my Taoist brother's good words. I hope everything goes well this time."
Liu Xia raised her head and cupped her hands, smiling.
"It's getting late. Junior sister and I should go back. I will tell my master what happened today. I believe that my master will definitely help Master Liu then."
"Thank you very much, Brother Dao."
Liu Xia stood up to see him off, but Xuan Jing looked reluctant to leave and kept looking back.
After sending the brother and sister away, Liu Xia sat cross-legged and began to breathe for the day.
Early the next morning, while Liu Xia was still meditating, she heard a rapid knock on the door, and then heard Dabao shouting: "Get two fat chickens and a pound of good wine for Sajia. Go quickly."
Liu Xia couldn't help but smile.
Immediately the door was pushed open, and Dabao walked in with a dusty face, sat down on the stool and said:
"For you to join me, Sajia's legs have been broken."
"Didn't you come here on a horse?"
Liu Xia asked curiously.
"Amitabha, what a sin, what a sin. When I left, I prepared two earth spirit beasts, but they ended up running half the distance. The poor monk was afraid that something would happen to you, so he couldn't bear to kill, so he came towards the path. You kid
It’s pretty fast. I’m practicing leisurely here. I’m sorry for the poor monk’s short legs. Look at them, they’ve all lost weight.”
As he spoke, he lifted up the monk's robe, revealing two thick black haired thighs.
"Yesterday I beat Chongxu from Shangqing Palace and injured more than thirty of their disciples. Today we go up the mountain to ask for help, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Liu Xia got up, walked to the table, got a cup of tea, and handed it to Dabao.
Dabao took out the cup of tea and took a sip. Without asking why, he frowned and said, "Brother, no matter where you are, things have already happened. We'll try to deal with it as soon as we see it."
"Why don't you ask me why?"
Liu Xia asked curiously.
"You are not a provocative person. They are probably the ones who provoked you first. I often hear my master say that Master Chongxu has a high level of cultivation, and his Taoism is also extremely profound. He has a broad mind. I think, he is not
I will give you a hard time over such a small matter."
Dabao put away his cynical expression and spoke seriously, which made Liu Xia a little uncomfortable.
"How sure are we that we can persuade the Shangqing Palace to come forward for us?"
Liu Xia asked softly.
"Nine floors!"
Dabao answered decisively.
"Why?"
Liu Xia felt a little uneasy.
"Seeing that Yun Zong is in an advantageous position after all, he doesn't know much about the situation in the world compared to today. To put it simply, this matter is related to the stance between the Taoist court and the sect. I think that he rushed to the void because he had another chance.
No matter how courageous you are, you won’t risk the world’s disdain and ignore it.”
Dabao explained.
Liu Xia took a deep breath and frowned.
