Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 643: First Meeting Fang Dasheng

Tangning followed Zhou Chaoxing along the passage to the lowest cabin. Inside was a huge console, about five or six feet high and several tens of feet long. There were countless colorful buttons, slots, and handles on it. Complex, and the variety of images on the console is dazzling.

Tangning only took a quick look, and found that the figures of everyone on the top deck clearly appeared in the screen. It turned out that this console could monitor the movement of everyone on the entire ship.

It seems that the cabin on the bottom floor should be the core of this wind spirit ship, and this oversized console should be the main station of the ship.

There were about a dozen monks standing or standing in the cabin, and he was shocked by his spiritual sense. The lowest cultivation level of these people was the late Nascent Soul, and several of them could not detect the specific cultivation level at all. Passing like a mud cow into the sea, at least a monk at the level of Huashen.

After he went down to the cabin, several people glanced at him, but no one asked questions. Zhou Chaoxing led him to a silver-white room in the cabin, and knocked on the raised silver-white stones.

Not long after, the silver-white door swung open, and Tangning followed Zhou Chaoxing into the room.

The inner space is only three to four feet in size, except for some stone tables and benches, and a few cabinets on both sides, there is nothing else.

Sitting cross-legged on the futon was a tall and straight man with a leopard head and ape arms. He looked to be in his thirties, with piercing eyes.

After the two entered, Zhou Chaoxing bowed to the man and saluted: "Master, I brought it here."

Tangning also bowed behind him, "Junior Tangning pays respects to Senior Fang."

The man nodded slightly and said: "Just now I heard from Chaoxing that Yan Minyi's nephew once found him and asked him to go to Xingang to inquire about you. My teacher Bai Jintang and I have been close friends for many years. Back then we were brothers in a small team So I summoned you to ask, I heard that you also inquired about the whereabouts of nephew Liu Ruhan, what is your relationship with them?"

Tang Ning replied, "Liu Ruhan is the wife of the younger generation, and Yan Minyi is the wife and senior sister of the younger generation. The younger generation has met her several times in Xingang."

As soon as these words came out, Fang Dasheng's eyes lit up, and his body tilted slightly.

Zhou Chaoxing looked back at him in disbelief, full of surprise.

Fang Dasheng said: "As far as I know, this nephew Liu has practiced in this sect since he was a child, and you are in Xingang. The distance between the two is hundreds of millions of miles. How can we marry you?"

Tang Ning said: "Senior, I don't know. My wife is originally from Xingang. Back then, our two families were married by fingertips. Later, our family experienced great changes. My wife and I were separated for a period of time. Later, my wife was taken away by a Taoist nun. Take him away, this person is his wife's mentor, Nangong Muxue."

"Dao Ding Liu 1970, senior Bai Jintang came to Xingang to collect taxes, his wife and senior sister Yan Minyi went with him, so he knew that his wife was accepted as a disciple by Taixuanzong."

"I see." Fang Dasheng nodded.

Tangning said, "This junior has the guts to ask you something."

"Speak!"

"This junior heard that a large number of your disciples have gone to Qingzhou. I don't know if my wife will come?" Tangning looked at him expectantly.

Since this person said that he was a close friend of Bai Jintang, and judging from Zhou Chaoxing's title, it is likely that this person belongs to the master-student line within Taixuanzong.

The three major factions within Taixuanzong, the orthodox family, the aristocratic family, the master and the apprentice, and the three are mutually restrictive. They are all deeply rooted and intertwined. From the masters of the three halls, the masters of the three courtyards, and the ordinary disciples, they all belong to the three sects. In the net of power.

Both Nangong Muxue and Bai Jintang belong to the master-student line, especially Nangong Muxue, who is the supervisor of the Taixuanzong Sili Department. From the position alone, it can be seen that he must be the backbone of the master-student line. Since this person belongs to the master-student line , it is impossible not to have an understanding of the important figures in one's own faction.

Sure enough, Fang Dasheng said: "I don't know whether Nephew Liu has come to Qingzhou, but as far as I know, Master Nangong's uncle has not come to Qingzhou for the time being."

Hearing this, Tang Ning couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Although he had already speculated before, but now that he got a definite answer, he still felt a sense of loss.

In a battle of this level, if the master doesn't come, the apprentice will definitely not follow, there is no doubt about it.

Fang Dasheng continued: "Speaking of which, Master Nangong's uncle can be regarded as my old superior. He once served as the supervisor of the Fourth Army of the Qingwu Camp. You are not only the husband-in-law of Master Liu, but also your own. What will happen in the future? Even if I tell Chaoxing, at least on this ship, I still mean what I say."

"Thank you senior."

"I see that there are so many goods stored outside, it's inconvenient for you to be crowded together, how about this! You can just rest in the cabin, there is still a long way to go to Jining Island!"

"Thank you senior for your kindness, but the disciples of this sect are all outside. If the younger generation moves to the cabin, it will be a little inappropriate. Senior, please forgive me."

"Since that's the case, that's all, you guys go!"

"Resign, junior." Tangning and Zhou Chaoxing exited the room, and they returned to the top cabin.

Zhou Chaoxing sent him out of the cabin, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Tang, if you need anything, just tell me, didn't the master just say it? We are the only ones, so you don't need to be polite. This cabin door is actually It’s a decoration, it’s used to keep people out of the way, you can just open it if you want to come in, or you can talk to the monks on duty on the deck and let them pass the message to me.”

"Thank you fellow daoist," Tangning replied.

Zhou Chaoxing sent him out of the cabin, turned around and returned to the cabin, and closed the silver door.

Seeing him and Zhou Chaoxing shoulder to shoulder, everyone looked at him straight, obviously curious about his situation in the cabin.

Seeing everyone's questioning gazes, Tang Ning felt like a monkey being watched. He couldn't explain the awkwardness in his heart, but he remained expressionless and sat cross-legged. Without waiting for anyone to ask questions, Tang Ning took the initiative to talk to Luo Qingshui.

"The senior Fang Dasheng called me to the cabin just now and interrogated me about my relationship with my wife. Gain said that Yan Minyi's master, Senior Bai Jintang, was his close friend for many years. Senior Fang heard that Yan Minyi had asked Zhou Chaoxing to inquire about me. So curious, he called me to ask, and after I answered truthfully, he let me go."

Luo Qingshui nodded, but said nothing.But Mo Yigan couldn't help asking: "Friend Tang, I saw that Zhou Chaoxing was very warm to you just now. I think Mrs. Zun must have certain abilities and connections within Taixuanzong."

"I live in Xingang, and I have no chance to get acquainted with the people of the Qingzhou inland sect. Since the Taoist friends have this relationship, can you try to find a good job for us? Avoid far and near, take the liberty to speak out, I hope fellow Taoists will not be offended."

Tang Ning said: "It's not my excuse. It's just that my wife is no more than an ordinary disciple in Taixuanzong. Besides, she hasn't come to Qingzhou. The reason why Senior Fang Dasheng summoned me is because he has a good relationship with his wife and uncle. So we can see In terms of the status of the deceased's descendants, if you ask about the situation, I am afraid that it will be difficult to complete the confession of a fellow daoist based on this irrelevant relationship."

Mo Yigan said: "Even so, the Taoist friend can finally talk to the Taixuanzong monk, unlike us, even if he asks for an interview, he will not take care of him. And since a friend Yan Min arrived in Qingzhou, his teacher Senior Bai Jintang must have also arrived in Qingzhou, since Mrs. Zun is Senior Bai's nephew, it is reasonable for a fellow Taoist to seek an audience."

"I've heard that Senior Bai is a highly respected disciple of Taixuanzong. Now that he came to Qingzhou with Taixuanzong's army, he might be able to speak. I also hope that fellow Taoists will work tirelessly to protect the survival of our two sects. Say a few good words, Mo Mou, please."

Mo Yigan stood up and bowed to Tangning. As the head teacher of Shuiyun Sect, he shouldn't ask Tangning to do anything, but it's about the survival and development of the sect, so he didn't care about these complicated etiquettes. If you don't speak clearly at this time, you may not have a chance in the future, so I beg you.

Seeing him bowing suddenly, Tang Ning hurriedly got up to help him: "Fellow Daoist Mo is serious. The two sects of yours and mine have always stood by and helped each other. As the master of Xuande Hall of our sect, don't you want to watch the whole army of disciples from our sect help you?" Is it indifferent if you are overwhelmed? Even if fellow Taoists don’t say anything, we will do our best where we should.”

"It's just that this matter is really out of your control. If there is a chance, I should pay a visit to senior Bai Jintang and beg him to save a chance for your two sects. But whether he can make the decision, or whether he is willing to help each other, is up to me." Forget it."

Hearing his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Luo Qingshui's heart also immediately relaxed.

He originally planned to find a suitable opportunity, find a deserted place, and talk to Tang Ningche alone to do his ideological work, but now Mo Yigan said everything he wanted to say, and got a satisfactory answer, which is better than him. Much better to talk in person.

For some things, it is easier for outsiders to convey straight to the point than for their own people. Do you want me, the head teacher, to talk to him with a pleading tone and attitude?

"Then I would like to thank Fellow Daoist Tang. I know that this is not easy, so I have no choice but to plead with fellow Daoist brazenly. Anyway, since Fellow Daoist has this relationship, it is easier than us to talk. If Fellow Daoist needs financial, material and human resources Support, even if you say it, our sect still has some savings in the Baoxing Chamber of Commerce, even if we devote all our efforts to the sect, we will do our best to help fellow daoists." Mo Yigan said.

Tang Ning said, "Let's talk about this in the future! I don't know if Senior Bai is in Donglai County, I don't know if I can see him, and I don't know if he is willing to help. Everything is still unknown."

Mo Yigan nodded and said nothing more. Tangning sat cross-legged for about a stick of incense. On the other side of the deck, three men came slowly. The leader had gray temples and a burly figure. Duan Wende is the head teacher of the sect, and the two behind him are the head teacher of the Biluo Sect and the head teacher of the Tianquan Sect.

The three of them walked up to Luo Qingshui, and everyone stood up to greet them. Duan Wende and Luo Qingshui exchanged a few words with Mo Yigan, chatted casually for a while, and then asked about Tangning being invited into the cabin just now.

Tangning didn't hide anything, so she told the truth. Of course, she just explained it briefly.

After hearing this, Duan Wende looked at him with deep meaning, nodded, said so, then chatted casually for a few more words, and then returned to his entrenched place.
