Immortality: Start with the Gourd Sword Art

Chapter 203: Arrange seats, divide fruits

The Buddhist issue has been resolved, but the Taiyin Cult Patriarch and the Empress Qiao Ling'er still occupy Luoyang in the world.

Although the three princes formed an alliance, there were no two days in the sky, no two masters in the country, and only one emperor.

There are also positions vacated by Buddhism that need to be filled.

These things all require everyone to get together and discuss them.

No matter how you put it, they are all allies now. Although these allies are mostly superficial, falling out and fighting over some mundane matters really does mean a loss of value.

Get together and discuss a plan that everyone can accept.

If we really can't negotiate, it's not too late to fight again.

Before letting Hongfa and others wait for long, Emei, the representative of Qi Dangguo, arrived first, followed by Zhang Tianshi, Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist Lord, and Ancestor Wang Yang.

As for the Kunlun sect, let’s just say they are aloof! It’s okay if there’s no one.

The same is naturally true for the Taibai Sword Sect. Although it does not need any followers, the Taibai Sword Sect, which has suffered a big loss, also needs an Emperor Li Tang who is friendly to the Taibai Sword Sect, otherwise the Taibai Sword Sect will be used against such tactics in the future. Still have to be caught blind.

Logically speaking, Longhushan and Louguandao should have discussed internally and promoted one person, so that they can be competitive.

Even so, no one will refuse if one of his own can take the position.

"No, no, no. Although the King of Chu has great achievements, he is a sideline. No matter how you calculate it, it will not be his turn to be the emperor."

Although no matter which prince ascends the throne, Longhushan and Louguan Taoism will be respected, and even the other sects will not be left behind.

It was like this before, it is like this today, and it will be like this in the future.

Of course, Taibai Sword Sect mainly cultivates itself, and there are no Taoist ancestors to worship, and it does not need any followers.

It was also because of this that these two people were too lazy to pretend in front of Taibai Sword Sect.

Now that we are at odds with each other internally, how can we still compete with the Taibai Sword Sect?

On weekdays, it would be good to be able to send out an elder of the soul to show his face and have a sense of presence.

He, Hongfa and others welcomed the three Zhang Tianshi into Taibai. After each of them exchanged a few words, Zhang Tianshi spoke first:

"Yes, if etiquette is messed up, there will definitely be endless troubles in the future. It would be better for the King of Qi."

Anyway, since the Red Stick Fairy Boy took charge of Kunlun, the Kunlun Sect has not bothered to care about their trivial matters.

Anyone who wants to eat alone will be beaten, and the Demon Sect is an example.

Ancestor Wang Yang smiled and nodded, but Zhang Tianshi immediately frowned and looked at him. Ancestor Wang Yang's smile froze and he said quickly: "Prince Jin is actually not bad, he is only sixty! He is not that old."

"The King of Jin, Li Ruji, is generous and kind, and has the demeanor of an elder. He can be the emperor."

"Old Wang, are you right?" After saying this, he didn't forget to pull Ancestor Wang Yang.

Not to mention, although the Taibai Sword Sect had few allies in the past, as long as they relied on the Taibai Sword Sect, the Taibai Sword Sect would never abandon them.

If Buddhism succeeds, Kunlun may still take action, but now! I don’t know if the Red Stick Fairy Boy, the leading Taoist leader in China, is in China.

After Zhang Tianshi finished speaking, before Xu Li could refute, Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist Master had already said:
"Although King Jin has the air of an elder, he is too old. He is already in his early sixties. Now that the Central Plains is in chaos, how many years can King Jin stay in power until the world is calmed down? Then chaos will arise again, and I, China, will suffer the most. Common people, the King of Qi is different. He is just forty, he is young and strong, and he is stable. If he becomes the emperor, he will definitely make the Tang Dynasty prosperous again. "

"The king of Chu, Li Yelong, is a wise and powerful person. His ability is beyond words. In terms of merit, he defeated Dongping Mansion alone. The king of Chu also ranked first. With such a dragon and phoenix appearance, and the appearance of the sun, he must either kill him or just leave him alone." What do you two think about making him the emperor?"

"The King of Qi is just a mediocre person. In troubled times, he should be a hero."

"The King of Jin has such bad personal ethics that he doesn't even spare his own daughter-in-law. How can such a person be an emperor and convince the world?"

Who should be the emperor is actually just a trivial matter, but it is precisely because it is a trivial matter that the fight is so fierce. Once it comes, it is not easy to agree on this matter. After all, compromising means giving up one's own people. Whether this matter is easy to do or not, it all depends on The Xuanmen sect is a famous figure in the entire universe, not to mention in China, and it must do the face-saving projects it needs to do.

It doesn't matter if you can't fight. If you don't fight, your reputation will be bad in the future, and the younger brothers will also be disappointed.

Here comes the second one! It is also very simple. We use this insignificant matter to test each other and set a basic tone for the major matters to be discussed next.

"If this argument continues, there will be no result. I think it's better to put it aside for the time being!" Xu Li is young after all. He is not as cunning as Zhang Tianshi and Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist. It would be really shameless to let go of the shame. , the quarrel between the two really gave me a headache.

"It's inappropriate, it's related to the welfare of countless people, how can it be a trivial matter? From my humble point of view, this is the biggest thing."

Xuanqiong Lingmiao Daojun's words were so beautiful that Xu Li was choked and speechless.

"However, what fellow Taoist said is reasonable. It is indeed not an option to continue arguing like this. It is best to put it aside for the time being."

He said everything good and bad. Xu Li was speechless and was too lazy to talk to this Taoist master anymore. He looked at Zhang Tianshi, who nodded slightly and agreed to put it aside for the time being.

Very good. At least the dispute has been put aside for the time being. It is considered a consensus, which is rare. This is a good start.

"Okay, let's discuss next what the position should be after Buddhism. Mr. Dao, you are the oldest here, so you come first."

"This stinky brat who is bound to take revenge is trying to bully my old man!" Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist Lord laughed and cursed in his heart, but pretended not to know on his face, so what if he is old? Can’t we play with young people? That doesn't make sense.

Needless to say, among the three people sitting next to each other this time, this Taoist king is really the oldest. His time of enlightenment was even earlier than that of Red Stick Fairy Boy, the great disciple of Guangcheng Taoist Patriarch. .

Compared with him, Zhang Tianshi and Xu Li were extremely young. One was no more than a thousand years old, and the other was even over fifty. It was really outrageous to argue with such two juniors with red faces. It's nothing to say but it's nothing to say. When it's time to fight for the people below, Xuanqiong Lingmiao Daojun will not be vague at all and said with a smile:
"The Golden Immortal Temple in Luoxia Mountain has always cultivated morality. Its temple owner, Zixia Taoist, is also a famous Shangzhen in our Xuanmen Taoist school. He can be asked to establish a sect and pass down the Taoism to educate the world."

Xu Li did not comment, looked at Zhang Tianshi and asked, "What did Tianshi say?"

Zhang Tianshi was not one to be vague, and immediately said: "Jiang Wang, the master of Demon Subduing in Qingcheng Mountain, can also establish a sect."

This Qingcheng Mountain is also a famous mountain in the world, and many monks have lived in seclusion there since ancient times. This was the first time that Xu Li had heard of the demon-suppressing master Jiang Wang. After a glance, the others were also a little confused. Xu Li knew immediately that this person Zhang Tianshi deliberately placed a nail to guard against Taoist Taoist Changmei.

He nodded immediately and did not express an opinion. Instead, he smiled and said to Patriarch Wang Yang, "Ancestor, do you have any recommendations?"

Patriarch Wang Yang was actually forced to gain momentum by Zhang Tianshi and Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist Lord. He never thought about getting a share of the pie. After all, he Zhenyi Sect did not contribute to the affairs of Buddhism.

Now that he suddenly heard Xu Li asking for his opinion, not only Patriarch Wang Yang himself was a little stunned, but also Zhang Tianshi and Xuan Qiong Lingmiao Dao Lord were also stunned.

However, they were all accomplished practitioners and would not be like ordinary people. In just a moment, they came back to their senses. After a brief moment of thought, they immediately understood that Xu Li's move was an outright conspiracy.

And it works extremely well.

"Fellow Taoist Xu, the old Taoist still can't remember that my master once accepted a young disciple who was a close disciple. He learned the method of alchemy from his master. It's just that this junior disciple succeeded in alchemy and failed in alchemy. Because he spent too much time on the alchemy path, he fell behind in practice and ultimately failed to achieve Yuanshen.

Now that he has a younger disciple who has inherited his Taoist lineage and has become a Yuanshen, I think he can be ordered to carry forward his master's alchemy method and benefit the world. "

"Well, alchemy is also a Tao. Nowadays, there is only one Yaowang Valley in China that is famous for alchemy. It is indeed lacking. If Master Chunyang's alchemy can be promoted, it will indeed be a good thing to benefit China."

Ancestor Wang Yang had just finished speaking, and Xu Li immediately nodded in approval.

Xu Li's singing in harmony with Patriarch Wang Yang made both Zhang Tianshi and Xuan Qiong Lingmiao frown a little.

Originally, Xu Li was not prepared to cripple Buddhism in this way, but Buddhism chose this path, and he had nothing to do. Now, Zen Master Fahai, Master Fentuo and others, under the protection of Zen Master Zhigong, have entered. After leaving the underworld, they revised their teachings to prepare for the changes of the times. Although Buddhism is not completely extinct in China today, it has no luck at all.

The gap left was quite big, so Xu Li, who had originally planned to let Emei wait and push Hongfa and others to establish a religion, immediately changed his mind.

Since we need to arrange seats to divide the fruits, we simply divide them more.

Anyway, the Taibai Sword Sect has its own luck. Although it also enjoys the authentic luck of Xuanmen, compared to Longhushan and Louguandao, it is not a big deal for the Taibai Sword Sect.

Xu Li's move disrupted Zhang Tianshi's plan.

Zhang Tianshi's original expectation was that Emei would come up, and then another family from Longhu Mountain and Louguandao would come up at will. In this way, the nine families could continue to suppress the Demon Sect.

As for the red-haired Ancestor and others, if they want to get a share of the pie, that is out of the question.

But now that Xu Li has hooked up with Ancestor Wang Yang, the situation has changed instantly, but they can't object yet. This is what makes Zhang Tianshi most uncomfortable.

Zhang Tianshi is an absolutely powerful person who plans and then acts. There are few people in the world who can compete with him. However, he did not handle the sudden situation very well, and now he also does not know how to deal with it.

Xu Li did not allow Zhang Tianshi to think deeply and said directly:
"The Taoist Lord recommended the Golden Immortal Temple, the Heavenly Master recommended the Qingcheng Sect of Fumo Zhenren, the Chunyang Sect recommended by Patriarch Wang, and I, the Taibai Sword Sect, recommended the Emei Sect. These four schools will all be authentic Taoist sects in the future, and they can build mountains Establish a sect to spread Taoism and enjoy the fortune of Xuanmen.

In this way, adding our original seven sects, we have eleven sects. "

"Well, these eleven are not numbers according to my Taoism. Let's put it this way. The two Taoist friends Red Hair and White Bones have merit in blocking the two bald donkeys Savi and Longli. Taoist Bai Mang also has the merit of breaking the secret of Zen Buddhism. , the three of them jointly founded the Zhushan Sect, which can also be a family. This makes up the number of twelve Yuan Chen, which is also in line with my Taoist luck.

What do you think? "

Xu Li was smiling all over his face, but Zhang Tianshi's brain was about to smoke.

The red-haired three were overjoyed and bowed deeply to Xu Li.

Qi Dangguo's face was expressionless. He was just here to make up the numbers. Facing these top experts in China, it was not his turn to express his opinion.

"Xu Taoist friend's words are reasonable. The twelve Taoist sects all heard it with great momentum. The old Taoist has no objection." Patriarch Wang Yang reciprocated the favor and was the first to speak out in agreement.

"If we go according to the original plan, Emei and Qingcheng will probably be on top in the end, and we, Louguan Taoist, will not gain much. Although we have to share some luck now, it won't be much. Besides, the old Taoist has said it all. , If you go back on your word now, won’t you disappoint fellow Taoist Zixia and make other fellow Taoists feel chilled?
This kid is indeed much more difficult to deal with than Zhong Shenxiu, and his scheming skills are already seven times as good as Zhang's. "

Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist thought for a moment, then stabbed Tianshi Zhang in the back, nodded and said, "I don't have any objections, either."

As Xuan Qiong Lingmiao Taoist stabbed him in the back and spoke out his support, Zhang Tianshi, who had not yet thought of a way to deal with it, was already in danger.

However, Zhang Tianshi could afford to take it and put it down. After all, it was not that big of a loss. Generally speaking, Xuanmen still had an advantage. He rubbed his forehead that was about to smoke and said helplessly:
"Forget it! That's it!"

The second topic was also passed smoothly. Everyone was really happy. Xuanmen had not been so harmonious for many years. It was really a day worth recording for future generations to watch.

You can also give it a name, um... just call it 'The Turning Point in Xuanmen History'?
Laughing secretly in his heart for a moment, Xu Li suppressed these whimsical thoughts, nodded and said:
"In this way, this matter is settled, and then there is the issue of Luoyang and the Taiyin Sect Ancestor."

"Master Dao, you are the oldest, so you should speak first."

Xuanqiong Lingmiao Taoist Lord looked at Xu Li speechlessly. This man was too vindictive. He just made some remarks during the argument and cursed a few times. He took the opportunity to insinuate, isn't it a bit too much? Don't you respect the elderly?

"This is not easy to handle! Although the Taiyin Sect Ancestor has been suppressed for tens of thousands of years, he is still a pure Yang. The old Taoist can't fight him, let alone he still has the position of Taoist Ancestor. If we fight against him, it can be regarded as bullying. It’s a very difficult thing to do if your master destroys your ancestors.”

"Old slicker." Xu Li cursed in his heart, and then smiled: "The Taoist ancestors must be respected. After all, they are the ones who opened the way, which made Taoism prosperous and allowed us to cultivate and grow. But the Taoist ancestors are going to swallow him up." The battle between Shenzhou Qiyun and Taixuan Taozu would be a catastrophe that would bring disaster to tens of thousands of living beings.

We are now admonishing Taoist ancestors to turn back. Not only is it not to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors, but to preserve the reputation of Taoist ancestors. It is an act of filial piety and good deeds to save all people. What do you think of Daojun? "

Xu Li's words were so beautiful that Lord Xuan Qiong Lingmiao couldn't think of any words to refute.
