As soon as the group of Taoists entered Fangxuan, Gao Lishi stood up to greet them, smiled at Yunfeng and said: "I saw so many immortals today. It seems that our family can also get a little bit of immortal energy, which will prolong our lives and lengthen our lives."

Yunfeng returned the greeting and said with a smile: "Eunuch Gao is the pillar of the imperial court, and he is responsible for everything. We, the outsiders, are only good at some small ways of alchemy and self-cultivation, and we are not in the eyes of my father-in-law."

Hearing the word "alchemy", Gao Lishi's eyelids twitched slightly. Such subtle changes naturally could not escape Ji Ruochen's eyes. However, to his surprise, Gao Lishi smiled at him and said, "This little god has extraordinary bearing. In the future,

He must be a great man who is famous all over the world. Although our family is a useless person, luckily we still have some eyesight."

Ji Ruochen did not expect that Gao Lishi's eyesight was so sharp. He could tell at a glance that the overall situation of the trip to Chang'an was presided over by Taoist Yunfeng and himself. You must know that although Li An had already compiled a secret book for Gao Lishi, he did not explain that he was in charge of the trip to Chang'an.

The identity of the two people. In fact, Li An didn't know who was presiding over Dezong's fight. It stands to reason that Gao Lishi's eyesight is so good that he would never reveal his thoughts on his face. How did he hear the word "alchemy"?

Will he lose his composure? Ji Ruochen pondered carefully for a moment, and finally understood that Gao Lishi was actually using this to hint at what he wanted.

Ji Ruochen smiled slightly at that moment, thinking that since this was the case, everything would be easy to handle.

After the group of Taoists sat down, Yunfeng and Gao Lishi complimented each other a few more words, and then turned to the topic. Ji Ruochen opened his hands, and there were two sandalwood boxes in his hands. He came to Gao Lishi and said: "Gao Lishi"

Father-in-law, our sect is located outside Hua. We didn’t prepare anything good when we came to Beijing this time. We only had a few Dragon and Tiger Pills dedicated to Emperor Ming. They have the function of harmonizing Yin and Yang, replenishing Qi, and prolonging life. There is also a Millennium Tortoise Shell Intermittent Pill.

, but it was reserved for Eunuch Gao. The functions and instructions have been attached to the paper, and Eunuch-in-law will be able to read it at a glance."

Gao Lishi raised his eyebrows again and smiled widely. He stood up quickly and took the two sandalwood boxes. Just as he was about to put them on the table next to the chair, Ji Ruochen said again: "Eunuch Gao, although our sect's accumulation is not abundant, these few

In terms of the ingredients and heat used in the elixir, I think it is still two or three times better than the elixir made by Zhenwu Temple."

As soon as Ji Ruochen said this, Gao Lishi's cheeks jumped several times. He hurriedly picked up the wooden box containing the Millennium Tortoise Shell Intermittent Pill and carefully put it in his arms. When he sat back in the chair, Gao Lishi treated the Taoists

The attitude is completely different.

Seeing that the time had come, Yunfeng said that he wanted to fight with Zhenwu Guan in front of the palace, so that Emperor Ming could identify who was the demon.

"A fight in front of the palace?" Gao Lishi said softly, "This sounds interesting, but I don't know what kind of fight it is?"

At this point, Yunfeng has already made up his mind, and now he says that one leaf in the Taoist temple is enough to know the autumn. If the real people in the sect take action to fight Sun Guo, firstly, they will not be able to win with force, and secondly, the Taoist methods used are too powerful and the influence will be too wide.

It would be a shame if Emperor Ming was shocked. This time he only had three skills to fight with the Zhenwu Guan, magic weapons, Taoist skills, and a fight with the younger generation of disciples from both sides. This was enough for Emperor Ming to understand who was the most talented person on both sides.

It is the authentic Taoism.

Gao Lishi thought for a moment and felt that this method was feasible, so he nodded and said: "I think the memorial from King Shou has arrived about the battle in front of the palace. If the time is right, we will give a few words to the gods in front of Emperor Ming. Now everyone

God, please go and rest and wait for news from our family."

One day later, Emperor Ming dressed in casual clothes and held a banquet in Jingyang Hall. More than ten people at the banquet were all close and important ministers of the court, including Sun Guo, Prime Minister, Yang Guozhong, and Prince Li Heng.

"A fight in front of the palace?" Sun Guo's face was as dark as water, and he raised his hands to Emperor Ming and said: "The great road existed before the heaven and the earth, how can it be a child's play? Moreover, the Tao Te Sect took away the sacred objects from our dynasty, and he clearly had evil intentions. Your Majesty must not do otherwise.

Look, what should we do if these demons take the opportunity to approach and intend to assassinate us?"

Emperor Ming was quite unimpressed when he heard this, but as Sun Guo was the imperial advisor of the dynasty, he was highly virtuous and respected, and it was not easy to refute him face to face, so he muttered: "What the imperial advisor said is very true. It's just that I think the sacred objects are of great importance.

Don’t handle it lightly. In the past few days, people have been writing to me, saying that the Tao Te Sect is the most important sect of Taoist leaders today, and that cigarettes have been passed down for more than three thousand years. I don’t know if this is true."

Sun Guo's expression was gloomy and uncertain. If Tao De Sect was just an ordinary sect, he would not be able to lie to his face. Moreover, the real people of Tao De Sect did not come forward and only competed on three items: Taoism, magic weapons and young disciples.

Since the attack is short and the attack is long, Zhenwu Guan has no chance at all. Moreover, Sun Guo has a wide circle of friends and has many Taoist friends, so he doesn't have to worry about no one willing to help.

Sun Guo knew that Emperor Ming liked liveliness, so he figured out what Emperor Ming meant. He must have really wanted to see this battle in front of the palace, and he seemed timid if he refused. He pondered for a long time, and then said: "Your Majesty, everything I do is for the sake of

Our country can have long-term peace and stability. The Tao Te Sect is indeed powerful, but they obviously have evil intentions when they take action to rob the sacred objects. But since they have come to Chang'an, the poor Taoists have no reason to back down. Since they want to fight, after three days,

I, Zhenwu Guan, will be able to meet all the sages of the Daode Sect!"

Such a result was already expected by Ji Tianxia and also by the Daode Sect Qun Dao.

Daodezong came well-prepared this time, so there was no need to prepare anything special during these three days. Ji Ruochen was walking around in the post house without anything to do, and suddenly remembered Li Bai whom he saw on the day he entered Chang'an, so he asked about Li Hanlin's residence.

,pay a visit to.

The Hanlin Mansion where Li Bai lived was just a small courtyard with three entrances. The "Li Hanlin Mansion" written in black on the courtyard gate was strong and straight, but it could not hide its shabby atmosphere.

The person who opened the door to Ji Ruochen was an old family member. When he saw the two wolf-like guards escorting Ji Ruochen, he was frightened and opened the courtyard door tremblingly.

When Ji Ruochen stepped into the middle hall, Li Taibai, who was famous for his poetry and prose, and who called himself the "Exiled Immortal", was lying on the Eight Immortals table, snoring loudly. Looking at the five or six empty wine jars in front of him, it was obvious that he also made wine.

The immortal has gone.

Ji Ruochen laughed and shook his head. Just as he took two steps forward, a loud shout suddenly came from his ears: "What kind of madman, covered with murderous evil, dares to break into my immortal mansion!"

This sound was like a loud bell, roaring in Ji Ruochen's ears, and for a while he could no longer hear any sound. Venus flashed in front of Ji Ruochen's eyes, and the world began to spin again, and the real energy around his body vibrated, and he was about to faint. In the midst of chaos,

He suddenly felt a needle-like sharp energy coming towards his face, and there was a faint flash of blue light. Ji Ruochen had experienced many life and death matters, and he knew that a sharp sword had probably pierced his eyes. Seeing that he could not avoid it, in desperation, Ji Ruochen decided to

He raised his true energy, his tongue exploded with spring thunder, he gave a sharp shout, and a ball of green energy spewed out from his mouth, which collided with the rapidly stabbing green steel sword!

There was a soft buzzing sound, and all the bowls, cups, and pots in the living room shattered into thousands of pieces. The two guards at the door groaned, and fell straight back with faces like gold paper.

Then a storm broke out in the hall!

Ji Ruochen took a few steps back and hit the hall pillar heavily, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. He was dressed in rags, and his gown was in tatters.

The middle hall was in a mess, but Li Taibai, who stood among the broken porcelain and rotten wood, was unscathed, and there was not a single tear on his black shirt. He was no longer as drunk as he was, and was staring at the half-length green ball in his hand.

Steel sword, with a look of surprise on his face.

Ji Ruochen opened his right hand, and there was already a Heavenly Heart Talisman in his palm, and his expression was quite nervous. Li Bai was surprisingly proficient in Taoism, and using this entry-level Heavenly Heart Talisman to deal with it could only have a slight blocking effect at most. However, Ji Ruochen's back

The left hand behind him was motionless, and there was already a small golden bell in the palm of his hand. He only had to tap his little finger, and a clear sound that ordinary monks could not hear could be heard far away, calling for the backup of the sect to rush.

Come on. This is Ji Ruochen's real move. Both the Tianxin Zhengfu and the nervous expression on his face are used to paralyze Li Bai.

After experiencing the baptism of the Luoyang Catastrophe, Ji Ruochen's heart was as calm as an icy lake, no matter what kind of enemy he faced.

Unexpectedly, Li Bai suddenly threw half of the green steel sword on the ground, smiled at Ji Ruochen and said, "You don't have to pretend to be scared, I'm just joking. Come on, let's go to the study and do some more sex."

!”

Li Bai couldn't help but Ji Ruochen grabbed his wrist and dragged him into the study. Li Bai's study was unique. In addition to the four treasures of the study, there were wine jars piled everywhere.

Li Taibai waved his hand and summoned a jar of old wine. Using his palm like a knife, he cut off the mouth of the jar. Then he pointed at the desk and conjured two sea bowls out of thin air. He filled them with wine and forced Ji Ruochen to drink.

Ji Ruochen was horrified. From the time Li Bai grabbed his wrist until now, he actually had no room for resistance, and he couldn't even dodge. When Li Bai changed bowls and poured wine at the table, he could only stay aside.

Looking at it blankly, he felt that there seemed to be countless invisible sharp needles around him. If he moved a little, he might be stabbed, so naturally he did not dare to move a little. When the wine bowl was in hand, Ji Ruochen followed Li Bai's example and drank it all in one gulp.

Throat, he suddenly realized why he had to obey Li Taibai in everything and had no intention of resisting?

Before Ji Ruochen could figure this out, he had another bowl of wine in his hand, so he raised his head and started drinking. The two of them drank more than ten bowls of wine back and forth like this, both of which seemed to be relaxing.

Ji Ruochen only felt that he was like a puppet on strings, and all his movements were involuntary. But thinking about it carefully, it would be wrong to say that he was completely involuntary. All his movements were based on his instinctive intuition about danger.

He moved, but he just completed the action that Li Taibai wanted him to complete. Just like when a person sees a steel knife coming to cut against the ground, his first reaction is to jump up high.

As soon as he thought of this, Ji Ruochen concentrated his mind, and all the joys, sorrows, and worries were driven out of his heart in an instant, just like a pool of stagnant water, eternal and unwavering. His mind was determined, and his whole body was shaken immediately, and the hand that was holding the bowl to his lips stopped.

In the air, the sea bowl tilted, and a bowl of wine poured onto the front.

Li Bai was already eighty percent drunk, but when he saw that Ji Ruochen could stop drinking, he couldn't help but praise: "Good! At such a young age, his Taoism and his will are so advanced. The Tao Te Sect is indeed worthy of being the leader of the righteous path!"

Ji Ruochen could only smile bitterly and wiped the wine stains from his front. Judging from the years of cultivation, his progress in Taoism was indeed rapid, and he could be described as a man of extraordinary talent. But that was not because of his extraordinary talent, but because he was pregnant with the Immortal of Dissociation.

Jue, because you can use the spiritual energy outside the body for your own use. As for the will, Li Bai was not wrong. For Ji Ruochen, who has been struggling on the line of life and death since he was sensible, it is not just the state of being as strong as iron, but also

It is a vague glimpse into the state of Wuxin.

Li Bai stretched out his hand, and two more chairs appeared in the room. He asked Ji Ruochen to sit down and said, "It's fate that you and I can get drunk together here today. The Tao Te Sect has always been aloof from the world, why?

This time, we have to fight with the Zhenwu Guan in front of the palace? Wouldn’t such a childish move make the Taoist monks in the world laugh at us?”

Ji Ruochen thought for a moment and then said: "May I ask what sect you are from?"

Li Bai did not expect that he would ask such an irrelevant question, and immediately said: "I, Xianyun Yehe, have no family or sect, I am just groping for my own practice."

Ji Ruochen nodded and asked, "I see. So with Master Li being such a moral person, why do you want to find a career in the court so much?"

Li Bai looked solemn and said, "How did you see it?"

Ji Ruochen chanted loudly: "Look up to the sky and laugh loudly and go out. How can I be a Penghao person?"

Li Bai was startled at first, then laughed and said: "I didn't expect you to be a thoughtful person. In fact, I want to find a career in this dynasty, not for glory and wealth, but for the common people in the world. No matter how strong I am, I can't travel around the world.

It’s just a hundred or a thousand people. If you serve as prime minister in one dynasty, you can benefit the people of the world. Isn’t it clear at a glance which one is more important?”

Ji Ruochen immediately stood in awe and said, "Master Li is so mired in worldly affairs, aren't you afraid of missing out on your cultivation and ascension?"

Li Bai smiled and said: "In the final analysis, is it just for selfishness?"

"But..." Ji Ruochen hesitated for a moment, then asked: "It seems that Mr. Li is quite unsuccessful in the court!"

Li Bai was silent for a moment, then sighed and said: "Xiao Xiao is in charge, Xiao Xiao is in charge... Let's not talk about it anymore, come and drink!"

The two drank for a while, and Li Bai slumped down on the desk and fell asleep. Ji Ruochen left the study on his own, called the two guards who still had earth-colored faces, and went back to the inn.

On the way back to the museum, Ji Ruochen lowered his eyes as if in trance, but his mind could not calm down. Until now, he did not know why he wanted to see Li Bai, let alone what Dezong was doing by intervening in the temple dispute. Could it be that

Do real people really care about the world?

It was late at night, but the lights were still brightly lit in the Zhenwu Temple. The disciples came and went in a hurry and were busy. Everyone in the temple held their breath and condensed their voices, and it was a scene of a mountain rain about to come and the wind filling the building. Although these disciples have been in the imperial capital for a long time,

After all, they are also monks, so how could they not know what kind of sect Taoism is? Seeing that they are about to have a battle with Taoism in front of the palace, the fate of their sect is at stake, so how can they not be nervous.

In the main hall, Master Sun Guo was wearing an apricot-yellow Taoist robe. He had just paid homage to Sanqing and offered sacrifices to the ancestors, and then he slowly stood up. A close disciple next to him handed over Qibao Green Ruyi, and Sun Guo took it in his hand and turned around to go outside the hall.

.

When the general was leaving the palace, the disciple couldn't help but ask: "Master, the Tao Te Sect is powerful, and we are both righteous, why do we have to be enemies with them?"

Sun Guo snorted, glanced at the disciple with a very stern look, and said coldly: "Why, are you afraid?" The disciple's expression changed when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "Master, I will never have two minds! What will happen in the future?

In a battle with the Tao Te Sect, my disciples are willing to take the lead, and there will be no victory!"

Sun Guo obviously loved this disciple very much, his expression slowly softened, and he said: "I am doing this as a teacher, not for my own personal gain as a Zhenwu Guan, but actually for the continuation of this dynasty's fortune and the continuation of the country, and for preventing chaos in the world. I
