Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 697
Su Zhenren also explained some other secrets, including the truth about Yang Guozhong's death, Xuanzong's words and deeds have been manipulated, and even Yang Guozhong's wife and one of the Yang family sisters have become puppets and so on.

As for the ministers in the court who noticed that Xuanzong and Yang Guozhong were different, they were all covered up by magic, which is just a side issue.

The person who is currently manipulating the words and deeds of these people in Chang'an City is actually not the middle-level monk in the Qi-refining Temple in Fenyou Temple—he doesn't have the ability to activate the magic weapon, nor is it Li Wei—he can't do this kind of work.This matter was in charge of a foundation-building disciple of Wu Zhenren's sect, but he doesn't live in Fenyou Temple, and he usually goes out all year round under the name of traveling and patrolling. In fact, he hides his identity and hides in the In the city of Chang'an.None of the monks in Chang'an city knew of his existence, even inside the True Immortal Temple, only the master Jin Dan and Wu Zhenren knew about it.Su Zhenren discovered it by accident when he went to Chang'an with Master Wang Zhenren to collect the soul absorbed by the architectural magic weapon about ten years ago.The master and apprentice discussed it, but no one revealed it.

Although this happened almost ten years ago, Su Zhenren deduced from some signs in the temple that this person is still in charge of this task in his original position, otherwise he would not have been able to do so after a large number of foundations of Zhenxian Temple went to the East China Sea to participate in the war. Neither the East China Sea nor the main altar still saw this person.

This man's job was not to bring the dead back to life, or to kill people who should have died but didn't.He is only responsible for making those puppets of the living dead speak and act like normal living people, so as not to arouse the suspicion of mortals.Patriarch Li Neng asked these "historical figures" to behave as recorded in the history books, but the records in the history books are limited, who can only say a few words on key occasions, but keep silent on weekdays? Do nothing?So someone needs to manipulate the behavior of these characters on weekdays.This person also needs to have common sense, knowledge, tact and know how to adapt to changing situations, and ordinary people can't do this kind of work.

The Foundation Establishment disciples in charge of this task worked very hard, and they might be distracted at any time to manipulate more than a dozen or twenty characters at the same time. Generally speaking, they couldn't make mistakes, but some minor mistakes were inevitable, and they might be punished if they made mistakes.It takes time and energy for him to do this task, and it also delays his daily practice. Therefore, if he is not a person who is not favored by the teacher, he does not have to suffer this crime.

The disciples who had built a foundation under Master Wu's sect were still assigned such tasks, and they hadn't changed for at least ten years.If this person's character is relatively upright and out of tune with Master Wu, or there is a problem with his temperament, even Master Wu can't stand him.

Either way, his mission must be stopped.Both Li Neng and Zhenxianguan are exhausted, how could they allow their people to continue to manipulate the rulers, ministers and dignitaries in Chang'an City?

Li Lijun discussed with Patriarch Lin Yuan in a low voice: "Master, should we go back to Chang'an first, and control the remaining troops of the True Immortal Temple first? In any case, we can't let them hold mortals hostage again and threaten righteous monks!"

Patriarch Lin Yuan glanced at her, thinking that children born in the clan still care about the safety of their own family after all.Forget it, a master should love the child more. Since it is a matter that the young apprentice cares about, he should help deal with it as an elder.

So the ancestor Lin Yuan nodded and said: "Forget it, I just plan to go back to Guanzhong to see if the master has cleaned up the ancestral land, and then bring them all over so that the elder brother can meet. If you take a walk, it will save you a slow delay on the road."

Li Lijun thanked Master with a busy smile, and remembered another thing: "Master, where is the disciple's cloud boat? If the cloud boat is taken out, not only the disciples of the sect can come to visit the master together, but also more Bring some supplies, and save everything from having to buy and collect on the spot in the East China Sea."

Ancestor Lin Yuan said: "As a teacher, I left the cloud boat to the head. Anyway, Liu Dongwang has also learned how to operate it. With this boat, it will be much more convenient for the sect to move from central Sichuan to the ancestral land." He faced Showing a bit of hesitation, "The head's injury has stabilized. Before leaving Sichuan as a teacher, he was ordering his disciples to pack up their belongings. I think they have returned to Guanzhong by this time?" After obtaining a high-level spirit stone, the effort of this night is enough for Yunchuan to travel at high speed.

Li Lijun didn't care either, although there was no cloud boat to sit on, but the new master who is the Nascent Soul Dzogchen personally brought her, so she could only return to Chang'an faster without any delay.

She heard Zhou Minggeng and Li Mingbai talking in a low voice, and it seemed that the more they talked, the more angry they became. After listening to a few sentences curiously, she realized what they were discussing.

It turned out that when they were in Chang'an City, they also met the disciple of Master Wu who pretended to be a high-level casual cultivator of Qi refining: "He lives in Jinchangfang! He pretends to be an ordinary monk on weekdays, and he is as good as Master Yuanguang." He seems to have a good relationship, but I didn’t expect him to be a member of the True Immortal Temple! We didn’t know the truth at the beginning, and we showed our faces in front of him. No wonder we went to the cultivation market to buy foundation building pills, but we were still targeted by people even though we didn’t reveal our identities Already!"

Li Lijun interjected curiously and asked: "Aren't the lone cultivators who came to rob you at that time? The people in the True Immortal Temple just stood by and followed you afterward, right?"

Li Mingbai said indignantly: "God knows who is behind those robbers?! The leader is only at the seventh level of refining Qi, and he dares to rob the road near Chang'an City. Would you be so bold?!"

Li Er pondered at the side: "There are also quite a few disciples of Master Wu who practice Qi-refining Dzogchen or high-level Qi-refining. Not everyone is lucky enough to be able to obtain the foundation pill smoothly. Maybe they are just for the Zhuji in your hands. Kidan is here? There is no spirit stone to buy spot, robbing seems to be easier?" For some disciples of Zhenxianguan, this kind of thinking is not unusual.Their lineage of Li Tang's clan has always been disliked, and because of this, it has attracted a lot of gossip from the same clan.

Su Zhenren finally added: "There are indeed rumors that he was originally a student of the official family. He was defeated by the power and his family suffered. Without him in the world, Master Wu would also look down on him. It is normal that he is not clear to the loose cultivators and bandits outside."

Li Lijun, Zhou Minggeng, and Li Mingbai couldn't help but think of what the bandit leader said in the past, after the foundation was established, he would worship in the Temple of True Immortals, and then he could walk sideways, and finally understood where his confidence came from.Presumably it was because of the precedent of success that he felt that he could really become a disciple of Zhenxian Temple?
The old doubts were finally resolved today, but Zhou and Li still didn't want to let go of this enmity.They are not strong enough, but they can sue the master.Besides, their Shangqing faction now has the support of Yuanying Patriarch!Are you afraid that you won't be able to deal with a gangster?

Therefore, Zhou and Li also begged Patriarch Lin Yuan to take them back to Chang'an.Anyway, they were all being carried in their sleeves, and the sleeves of Nascent Soul Da Neng were more secure than the sleeves of Jindan Zhenjun. They had experience, and they were not afraid of being bumped again.

Su Zhenren and Taoist Xuanying exchanged glances with each other, as if they also wanted to ask for a share.If we can rush back to Xianyang to reunite with our fellow disciples as soon as possible, we can also prevent Dong and Wu from fooling their brothers into shields!
On the contrary, Li Er hesitated to speak, and looked back at the other monks of Li Tang's clan. Everyone had strange expressions on their faces, as if hesitating for something.
