The national teacher does not practice

Chapter 259 The Banquet, Candidate for the Holy Daughter and Husband ([-] words for subscription)
"Who are you talking about?!"

By the window, as soon as Xue Jifu heard the words "Great Zhou Guoshi", dazzling eyes pierced, and she asked involuntarily.

The old woman in gray had already walked to the door. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help laughing:

"It is said that the Holy Maiden has something to do with the Grand Master of the Zhou Dynasty, and the remaining feelings are still there. I didn't really believe it at first, but now it seems that it is indeed the case."

Xue Ji was ridiculed for a while, but she didn't care, she continued to stare at her, her white chest rising and falling:

"You said you know the news about him? Is he also reborn?"

Her voice was eager and expectant.

However, the old woman's next round of words ruthlessly crushed it:
"Oh, well, the old woman doesn't know about it, she just tried it casually, and it will have a miraculous effect."

The light ignited in Xue Ji's eyes went out instantly, the temperature in the room dropped, her eyes were indifferent, and she realized that she was being played by this old woman.

The old woman smiled and mocked:

"Holy girl, you were able to get rid of the Holy Cult by luck back then, and the leader was not too wary. But now, are you still looking forward to doing it again? However, the world today is no longer the same as before. Not to mention the big Did Zhou Guoshi return as usual? If he came back, would he be able to rise again and regain his strength?

If you are unlucky, it is not impossible for you to be slaughtered when you are weak.Even if the real cat is in some corner, is it possible that he can still get news and sneak into Qianjiao Island?If it really came, it would be a good thing. With the strength of the island's church members, wouldn't it be a great achievement to capture him?
Besides, taking ten thousand steps back, he is a majestic national teacher, how could he take risks for a demon girl like you?Do you really think there is anything special after sleeping with others for a few days?The emperor returned to the Sixth Court of the Sangong, the Da Zhou Guoshi lived for 500 years, and had countless daughters, I'm afraid he has already forgotten you. "

These words were like a heavy hammer hitting Xue Ji's heart.

It made her, who was originally full of anger, shrink inch by inch, her eyes were also lonely and miserable, and she was powerless to refute.

The old woman glanced at her and said warmly:
"So, instead of dreaming about the big spring and autumn dream, it's better for us women to recognize the reality. Why don't you take a closer look. Among the Qimen monks who came to the island this time, there are those who are qualified to compete for the seat of the holy daughter and husband-in-law. Which ones, consider the future in advance.

By the way, before the meeting, these people will also arrange a meeting. If you are interested, you can also go to observe and choose it yourself... Although, it is useless. "

After leaving these words, the old woman gave a strange laugh, turned and walked out of the house.

After walking a few steps along the corridor, I heard the sound of Xue Ji knocking over the crab plate from inside the room.

She chuckled and shook her head, walking out of the yard.

Just in time, I saw a Daze sect disciple running towards a main courtyard next door holding a registration booklet.

……

……

The head of the Daze faction, namely:
The Lord of Qianjiao Island is a well-proportioned old man who wears a dark green luxurious satin shirt and a Taoist silver crown on his head.

He only looked at his appearance, he was about fifty years old, with black hair, thin and long eyebrows, a white beardless face, and a pair of inverted triangle eyes, which looked particularly sinister.

At this moment, he is sitting in the main seat of the inner hall.

Holding the registration book covered with raindrops sent by his disciple, he scanned it one by one. He only paused briefly on the words written by Ji Ping'an and the blind old Taoist, then threw the book aside and said lightly:
"understood."

In the lower position of the hall, there are several members of the Four Saints sitting on the left and right, among which the two are the most eye-catching.

They are the two reborn people who followed the Great Protector during the "Gu Insect Disaster" in Sanhuang County:
"Lich" and "dwarf".

At this moment, the "corpse witch" with a hunched figure, leaning on a white skeleton staff, and with sparse hair on his head laughed twice, staring at the island owner with two eyes, one red and one green, and said:

"It seems that another powerful person has landed on the island."

Opposite him, a small, ugly dwarf, swinging his legs on a chair and leaning against a white streamer, said:

"Among the Lanzhou Holy Cult, there are not many people who have not yet landed on the island and are worthy of attention. The only ones left are the nuns from Taohua Temple and a blind Taoist priest... The Soul Lamp sect, ha, I didn't expect it to still exist."

In his tone, he looked like a reborn person.

Inevitably, most of the reborn people have a more or less overlooking attitude when they comment on today's people.

The Lord of Qianjiao Island frowned slightly, and was slightly displeased with the tone of these two people, but the "Daze School" was not a Jianghu sect after all, but was classified as a practice sect.

The owner of the green-robed island has always regarded himself as an "immortal teacher", and he also has a contemptuous and overlooked attitude towards the strange gates of the world, so he will not complain about it.

At this time, he opened his mouth lightly:
"It's a blind old Taoist priest from the lineage of Soul Lamp. Peach Blossom Temple also landed on the island. The rest that haven't arrived are only some miscellaneous fish."

As for Ji Pingan, he didn't take it seriously at all.

"The Lich" smiled and said:
"In this way, we can first gather the church members on the island to get acquainted with each other, and at the same time prepare for the sacrifice. By the way, do you want to invite the saint to come forward? Heh, she is the protagonist of this gathering."

Hearing this, everyone in the hall smiled ambiguously.

Especially the dwarf, who was even more excited, eager to fight, Sanhuang County and his party, he had long coveted Xue Ji, but he couldn't do it because of the shock of the big protector.

There is some chance this time.

However, he is not good at melee combat, and his job is in the formation of clouds.

Like the old Lich, they are all "supporting professions", so there is not much hope.

But since the saint was punished by the leader, she can take it out as a prize, which means:
The Four Saints tacitly no longer forbid others to violate Xue Ji.

Well, it is still forbidden before the husband-in-law is selected, otherwise the "prize" will be tarnished, and conflicts will inevitably break out within the church.

But as long as you wait for this matter, you can look for opportunities to find happiness.

The green-robed island master's eyes were bored, and he just felt that this group of believers was no match for him. As the only remaining high-ranking member of the church in Lanzhou, he was more concerned about the arrangement of seats.

The so-called "gathering" is not only a rehearsal for the real "chosen husband", but also an opportunity for him to investigate the power of the Qimen monks.

"Since the main people are all ready, let's go ahead and set up a banquet tonight. Heh, with the temperament of the colorist, he must be able to stir up excitement without the help of the master. I don't know which unlucky person will be brought cut."

The island owner seems to know a lot about the notorious "colorist":
"As for the saint, send someone to inform her. If she goes, she will go. If she doesn't go, there is no need to persecute her. It's just a girl, so why bother."

"Yes." The disciple at the bottom bowed his hands and retreated.

……

On the other side, Ji Ping'an and his party were also led outside a single two-story main building, and the blind old man lived next door.

When the door is closed, the drizzle and wind outside are blocked.

Ji Ping'an was the first to sit at the table, looked around at the people who were sitting down one after another, and said:
"It seems that we came at the right time, and the first step went well."

At this time, Yu Yu finally regained his original temper, no longer lowered his eyebrows and pretended to be a maid, and said happily:

"Your trick is really powerful. The incense burner held by the man at the pier must have been verified. I was so heartbroken at the time, I was ready to expose my identity and get ready to do it."

Fang Shijie climbed out of the bookcase and smiled disdainfully:
"It is important to know that this god...general, when you conquered the world in the past, you were not born when you disguised yourself and sneaked into the enemy city, and opened the gate of the city."

There is no way to refute this.

Huang He and Mu Yaoyao also had very exciting expressions, like huskies mixed with wolves.

Ji Pingan coughed, interrupted the team members' jokes, and said:

"Gathering together the information, based on the information we heard from the disciples who led the way along the way, combined with what the blind Taoist said, we can basically determine the current forces on the road."

He raised his hand, picked up several tea cups from the tea tray, and placed them on the table one by one:

"The island master who controls the Daze faction is a local force, and he is the strongest in the local area with his cultivation base."

"Some of the core members of the Four Sages, including a small number of reborns, are some of the monks in the team in Sanhuang County. They are the second, and they are generally under the leadership of the island owner, but they are not their direct descendants."

"The third group is the believers who came to participate in the gathering. Among them, the martial arts are weaker but there are many people, and the Qimen monks are stronger, but they are in separate formations and are wary of each other. Although they are both in the Demon Sect, they have not a good relationship with each other. Among them The most noteworthy ones are:
Cai Xi Shi, Tao Hua An, Poison Dragon Layman, Yellow Turban Warrior, and Blind Taoist are also strong contenders for the Saint to choose a husband this time. "

Three tea bowls are buckled on the table, in the shape of a character.

Mu Yaoyao raised her hand and said:

"Do those female nuns in Peach Blossom Temple also want to marry a demon saint? It's like a word invented by the national teacher, called... Lala?"

"..." Fang Shijie was speechless, and said:
"Didn't you hear that the key to a saint's husband selection is not the saint, but the fact that this time the demon sect's powerhouses compete, and the ranking is used to fill the vacant positions in the high-level positions in the sect. It is the most powerful one, and one of the benefits is to marry a saint...

It's not that these people really compete to marry the saint!
The core of the competition is the status in the church. Of course, the nuns are not interested in the saint, but they are interested in the status in the church and the cultivation resources that match their status. "

Mu Yaoyao said "Oh" and put down her hand to show that she understood.

Yu Yu said unhappily:
"Can you stop talking about a saint, I sound disgusting. Can't it be called a witch... or a witch?"

As a Taoist saint, she felt being alluded to.

The taste of a witch is really good... Ji Pingan's mind came up with a past life stalk, and immediately dismissed the distracting thoughts, saying:

"General Ah Dou is right. The core of this battle is the battle for status."

Mu Yaoyao held her chin and muttered:
"So, that witch is pitiful. Speaking of which, if she is really a reborn, does she have something to do with our Qin Tianjian?"

Yu Yu nodded, looking like a commander:

"If it's really that Xue Ji in history, you can try to instigate rebellion."

Ji Pingan said lightly:

"We will discuss this later. Since we are choosing a husband, at least her safety is guaranteed before the winner is actually decided. Therefore, our top priority now is to wait and see what happens and first find out the situation. The details of the three parties on the island Intelligence, and then act on camera.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The stated purpose is to cause sabotage, but if you want to cause trouble in the enemy camp without being counter-killed, it is also a technical job.

At this time, Ji Ping'an suddenly moved his ears, raised his finger in front of his lips, and pointed outside.

With a swish, Fang Shijie got back into the book box and showed himself as a puppet.

Footsteps approached, then a knock on the door.

After Ji Pingan said Shengjin, a strange Daze disciple outside spoke out:

"There will be a banquet on the island tonight, and everyone is invited to come. It's counted as a cleansing of the dust. I hope to go on time."

Clean up the dust?I'm afraid it wasn't a deliberate inspection.

Ji Pingan nodded: "We will go on time."

Hearing that, the disciple nodded and left, but when he left, he looked at them with strange and pitiful eyes.

It confuses everyone.

……

next door.

"Pin Dao will go by himself."

The blind old Taoist priest also received the dinner invitation, and when the "watching" messenger left, he let out a hey, rubbed his beard with his fingers and thought for a moment, then returned to the room with a flick of his sleeve.

In the room, two girls were kneeling and sitting next to the simple soul lamp, each with a cut in their wrists, as soon as they got close to the wick, the blood would be sucked into it by itself.

The purple flame became brighter and brighter.

The faces of the two girls also gradually turned pale.

"Master, is it enough?" My sister raised her head, forced a smile, and hurriedly added, "If it's not enough, I'll squeeze it again."

The blind old man sarcastically said:
"As a teacher, you don't want to find some holy daughter and husband. Why do you light this soul lamp so brightly?"

The two girls breathed a sigh of relief at first, quickly retracted their hands, and bandaged the wounds expertly. The sister asked curiously:
"Master doesn't want a teacher's wife?"

The blind old man laughed loudly, but his voice was not full of joy:

"If it weren't for the fact that the situation is stronger than others, why should you commit yourself to this Laoshizi Demon Sect as a teacher? Hundreds of years ago, when it was so powerful at its peak, there was no scum left. Now that it has revived, do you still want to overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

As he said that, the old Taoist priest sighed in frustration:
"It's just a cutscene. Whoever likes to be the top leader of this sect should go."

The sister blinked and said:

"That night's banquet, isn't Master planning to fight with others?"

The blind Taoist laughed and said:

"If people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If people offend me, I will let him. If there is no accident, the colorist will definitely attack. This person has always acted in a domineering style. Isn't this banquet a good time to stand up? Fang, I don't know how to deal with it, but the group of 'The Calligrapher' may bring surprises."

My sister wondered:

"Master thinks that the young man next door is not simple? Because he sees..."

"Snapped!"

Inside the soul lamp, a ray of flame condensed into a long whip, and beat my sister to the ground.

The younger sister, who was bandaging the wound, rushed over, and the two girls hugged each other, shivering.

The blind Taoist remained expressionless and said:
"Pindao's eyes are blind but his heart is not blind. Others have good eyes, but they can't see anything. Poor Dao has bad eyes, but they can smell the dangerous smell of these people.

Eat hard tonight, feed yourself, and produce more lamp oil. I have a hunch that something may happen to this rally. When the time comes, the three of us, master and apprentice, don't get involved. "

As he said that, he turned and opened the window, the cold wind poured into the room, and the soul lamp swayed violently.

The old Taoist sniffed the sweet smell in the air, and a line of words burst out of his heart:

The mountains and rains are coming, and the wind is full of buildings.

……

……

In the next few hours, a few more sporadic people came to the island.

Before dark at night, the drizzle stopped, the thick clouds dispersed slightly, a crack opened in the sky, and a dim moonlight shone down.

Ji Ping'an and his party finished cleaning up, got up and walked out of the bamboo building. They saw that the entire Daze sect was decorated with red lanterns one after another, which was particularly festive.

It's a bit like preparing a "big wedding" for the saint.

"Haha, how about you go together, my lord?" The blind old Taoist master and apprentice had just come out, and the two met face to face.

Ji Ping'an nodded happily: "This is the best."

The two sides talked and laughed, and walked towards a particularly magnificent bamboo building on the island.

Along the way, I also saw a famous Qimen monk and warrior walking out of the buildings.

Either lone rangers, or groups of three or four, most of them were vigilant against each other, while Daze disciples carried lanterns and shuttled back and forth.

When Ji Ping'an arrived outside the bamboo building where the banquet was held, the middle-aged man who registered on the wharf during the day greeted him, smiling and handing over the seat card with the number on it:

"Please."

Everyone took it and stepped into the lobby. It was a layout similar to the lobby of an inn.

The round tables together form a circle, with a carpeted space in the center.

Lampposts were erected all around, and the candlelight illuminated the resplendent and resplendent, as if it was not on a small island, but in a restaurant in Fucheng.

At this moment, the hall was full of people, and only some tables were left vacant. The strange thing was that apart from the whispering among the monks sitting together, the group of believers lacked conversation with each other.

The atmosphere was extremely cold and tense.

As soon as Ji Ping'an and the others stepped in, they immediately cast their gazes on him, but most of their gazes just swept past him and concentrated on the blind old man.

There was a hint of hostility in their eyes.

"Fuck, why does it feel like this group of people are all enemies to each other, what about the big church family that was agreed upon?" Fang Shijie murmured.

In order to facilitate communication, before arriving, Ji Ping'an sent everyone a "heart voice talisman", allowing them to hear each other's inner communication during the period of use.

After all, not everyone has mastered voice transmission.

Yu Yu: "Tsk tsk, it's probably because of the eyes of your rival."

Mu Yaoyao: "The key point is, these people are so ugly and vicious. They don't look like good people at all!"

This is true. At a glance, the appearance in the hall can be said to have fallen below the average.

The men are vicious, and the women are vicious. Correspondingly, Ji Ping'an and the other five are simply handsome men and women.

Huang He:

"Young Master said before that the main force of the Four Holy Sects is still a villain in the world and a wanted criminal by the court. What good can he do? But this blind old Taoist priest has evil intentions and deliberately follows us to stir up hatred."

Ji Pingan: "Sit down, and don't be impatient."

At this time, a group of people walked to the given position.I found that the seats seem to be arranged in the order of going to the island, next to the old Taoist master and apprentice again.

After many eyes moved away, the blind Taoist smiled and transmitted the voice:

"Young master is from Yuezhou. It seems that you really don't know much about Lanzhou Qimen. There are no acquaintances in the field."

Ji Ping'an's expression was indifferent, and after stepping into the hall, his expression also turned cold, and his demeanor deliberately looked high-definition and aloof.

Holding a scroll in his hand, he looks like he is outstanding and disdains to be with everyone.

Hearing this, he said, "May the Taoist priest introduce one or two?"

The blind Taoist didn't refuse, and put the soul lamp on the table, it was the eyes.

Pointing to the distance with a finger:
"You've seen Taohua An, the tough guy at the table next to them is the Yellow Turban Warrior."

Ji Pingan looked up, and first saw a circle of six obese female nuns wearing embroidered peach blossom monk's robes, who were chomping on fish and meat as if no one was around.

And beside them, at another table, sat four short middle-aged men, a head shorter than ordinary people, and their appearance was extremely similar, as if they were born brothers.

They were all wearing open sweatshirts, shorts, and yellow scarves on their heads, sitting upright with serious faces.

Sensing their gazes, the four of them turned their heads almost at the same time. Looking this way, their faces were still expressionless. Although they were alive, they looked more like puppets than Fang Shijie.

"These four people are said to have four children from one mother. They practiced together since they were young. Although they may look thin and thin, in fact, their muscles are concentrated to the extreme, and their weight is astonishing. Once they cast the spell and appear like a strongman, they will be several times burly, far exceeding ordinary people, and their strength is terrifying. Tsk tsk, if these four people win the first prize... the saint is either crushed to death, or harassed, suffering, suffering."

The blind Taoist smiled and raised his finger to point to the corner:
"That person is Dulong Layman, a key criminal of the imperial court. He used poison gas to concoct a village in order to practice exercises, and hundreds of people were turned into blood. Unlike the poor Taoist, this person is said to have found the holy religion to join him on his own initiative. Take it seriously."

Ji Pingan looked, and his eyes locked on a man who occupied a round table by himself, and all the people around avoided him.

His body was covered with sack-like clothes, his face was unkempt, and his long hair covered half of his face, but he could see that his face was very long.

A blue gourd was placed in front of him, and he was slowly picking up vegetables to eat and drink at the moment. He raised his eyes and glanced at this side, the corners of his mouth under the black hair were grinning, revealing his teeth.

"..." The blind old man smacked his lips, looked away, and said:

"This person is good at using poison, and his body has been refined into a poisonous body. Speaking of which, if this person wins in the end, I'm afraid that the saint will be poisoned to death on the bed... It's pitiful to think about it."

Ji Pingan's expression remained calm, and he said:
"Where's the colorist you mentioned?"

The blind old man shook his head:

"I haven't been there yet, but you can recognize him as soon as I tell you, this person is dressed as a folk juggler, with strange methods, cruel and merciless, and a surly and distorted personality. He is an ugly old man who practiced juggling when he was young, and the flame burned I have a face, so I am used to wearing half a mask to cover it.

Walking in the rivers and lakes, anyone who looks at his face more than once will be brutally tortured and killed... Heh, but this is a holy meeting, he must not dare to kill people, but he can look more often, but it is inevitable to be hated . "

The five people around the round table looked at each other.

Mu Yaoyao voice transmission:
"Oh my god, what kind of monsters are these? They are either four giants, or they are covered with poison, or they are ugly, or they are blind...Compared to the nuns in Peach Blossom Temple, they are all beautiful...Which one of these people wins the championship, the witch is miserable ah."

Yu Yu also frowned, expressing his displeasure.

Huang He's voice transmission:

"It's not about choosing a husband, it's about punishment. I'm afraid it wasn't that Xue Ji defected in her previous life and offended the Four Sacred Sects to death. She was arrested and humiliated deliberately in this life."

Fang Shijie glanced at Ji Pingan with an ugly face, and the Emperor and the military adviser looked at each other, and they both saw the heavy eyes of the other party.

What Huang He guessed was probably the real reason.

At this time, suddenly, there was a cold wind blowing from outside the hall.

All the believers in the hall looked up, with a serious look on their faces.

The blind old man reminded in a low voice: "Here we come!"
