Chapter 295 Old Taoist Priest

The situation in Lingzhou is becoming more and more chaotic.

Village massacres still happened.

Kong Sen ordered Chen Danian to go out and capture the real culprit of the village massacre, but he had been out for half a month and hadn't even seen the shadow of those people.

It is really useless!
In comparison, Bai Yuan, who is also a Tongzhi, is much more capable in doing things.

Reports of killing monsters came almost every day. The number of monsters killed by him was the highest in Lingzhou, even several times that of the second place.

With such talent, it is no wonder that Du Qinghui and Jiang Changping both favored him.

Even Kong Sen did not deny Bai Yuan's talent.

However, no matter how outstanding Bai Yuan is, Kong Sen would never entrust him with an important task.

The issue of stance, this alone is enough to crush Bai Yuan.

He was originally ordered by the emperor to come to Lingzhou to curb the power of Xu Dingchun's lineage. How could he allow Bai Yuan to do whatever he wanted? So even though he knew that Chen Danian was just an ordinary person, he would still make full use of him.

Now that Lingzhou's government is in decline, it's time to recruit people. If Chen Danian is not needed, he can't do it himself, right?

Although the officialdom is large, there are not many people who are both capable and loyal.

Kong Sen's eyes were gloomy.

If it weren't for the purpose of currying favor with Yan Shaoan, he would not have bothered to take over the mess in Lingzhou.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

In the courtyard.

Bai Yuan used poison skills in his left hand and held a knife in his right hand. The Chaos Blood Subduing Tiger Knife and the Manggu Zhuha Kung Fu fought against each other, and the two were evenly matched.

The mystery of Shenfu Gong opened his eyes!

In the past, he had been thinking hard about how to stack his abilities to produce a stronger effect, and now Shenfu Gong has given him the answer.

The Chaos Blood Subduing Tiger Technique and the Mang Gu Zhu Ha Technique are on the left and right, and the swordsmanship and poison skills are perfectly combined. The effect is even stronger than the two combined.

If one possesses the white martial arts technique and superimposes it, wow, wow, it's terrifyingly powerful.

Bai Yuan has just started learning Divine Mansion Skill, so it is better for him to be ambitious and think about things that are far away.

But what puzzled him was that Li Li told him that Shenfu Gong was the key to the three palaces, but now that he had practiced Shenfu Gong, he still had no clue.

Li Li was trapped in Shenfu Mountain by that mysterious strong man using some unknown means, and was still waiting for Bai Yuan to rescue him. I don't think he would use this matter to deceive others.

Helplessly, he could only wait until his Divine Palace Skill became more advanced before he could decipher the mystery.

He still remembered the special profession that was mentioned before.

However, it can only be unlocked after reaching the mastery level of Shenfu Gong. Perhaps after unlocking the new profession, he will be able to get a clue.

The mastery level corresponds to the third level of Shenfu Gong. Even if Bai Yuan has a plug-in, it will probably take a long time to master it.

Boom, boom, boom.

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Bai Yuan spoke calmly.

Yang Fangyu pushed the door and walked in with a smile.

"It's so refreshing, it's really refreshing. Seeing that Kong guy get humiliated is more satisfying than doing anything good myself!"

Yang Fangyu's laughter grew louder and louder.

Bai Yuan: "Kong Sen hasn't caught the murderer yet?"

"With that loser Chen Danian, how could it be possible?"

Yang Fangyu sneered.

His words showed that he did not take his boss Chen Danian seriously at all.

After all, apart from Chen Danian's qualifications, Yang Fangyu will sooner or later surpass him.

Not to mention that Chen Danian is no longer at his peak fighting capacity because of his long-term indulgence in alcohol and sex.

Bai Yuan frowned slightly.

The massacre of the village was not a small event. Logically speaking, even if Chen Danian was not doing his job well, he still had the help of strong men from the court, so it would not be possible that we didn't get any news for so long.

The Demon Sect's method this time was extremely clever. Bai Yuan didn't believe that there was no master behind the scenes directing this.

But these have little to do with him.

Because of Kong Sen's methods, he had almost nothing to do with the matter.

So even if something goes wrong, he won't be punished.

He just needs to practice with peace of mind.

A quiet and verdant forest in Shenfu Mountain.

The sound of laughter and conversation could be heard faintly.

"Brother Bai, how about I talk to my father?"

The person who spoke was Li Huan who came from Lingzhou City.

He had heard about Bai Yuan's experience in Huanglong Mansion a long time ago, so he came here specially to meet his two good friends.

Bai Yuan shook his head: "Not for now."

The King of Qingzhou is a hereditary prince, while Taibao Yan Shaoan is a powerful minister with great influence in the court. Any conflict between the two will definitely be known to the court.

Given Bai Yuan's current situation, if the King of Qingzhou clearly showed signs of favoring him, the emperor sitting high in the Golden Palace would think that the King of Qingzhou had joined forces with Xu Dingchun.

When a prince and a general with military power join forces, it will be difficult for any emperor to sit securely.

Not to mention that the King of Qingzhou would not agree to it, even if he really did it, it would be harmful to Bai Yuan and would not benefit him in any way.

Li Huan sighed softly.

He truly regarded Bai Yuan and Yang Fangyu as good friends.

Seeing the two of them being suppressed by Kong Sen was naturally unhappy.

Yang Fangyu laughed: "A wise man does not fight for a momentary victory. Who knows who will win in the end. The position of Lingzhou's general has been vacant for a long time. Maybe it will be our A Yuan's."

His words were completely different from what he said when he heard Kong Sen being humiliated before. He looked like he saw through everything.

Li Huan nodded.

What Yang Fangyu said actually makes some sense.

The candidate for Lingzhou prefect has been decided, but the position of general has been vacant for a long time.

Ever since the previous general Dong Wanjun became the General Zhenbei, this position has remained unresolved.

I heard that the Ministry of Personnel had proposed several candidates, but they were eventually abandoned when it came to the Imperial Household Department. You have to know that although the eunuchs of the Imperial Household Department had the privilege of the emperor's approval, it did not mean that they dared to interfere too much in the matter of the third-rank official. If someone said that there was no instruction from the emperor, Li Huan would not believe it at all.

Considering Bai Yuan's many great achievements, it is not surprising that he became a general.

However, in addition to Bai Yuan's efforts, it also depends on the planning and layout of Minister Xu.

Every time an official is promoted, there are too many intrigues behind it, involving the interests of several parties, not to mention a high-ranking official like the general of a state.

Bai Yuan just smiled faintly and said, "Let's drink."

Li Huan came to Huanglong Mansion, and the three of them reunited again, and they had to have a good drink together.

The three of them drank until late at night, and only then did Li Huan and Yang Fangyu go down the mountain satisfied.

Taking advantage of the situation, Bai Yuan simply sent the two of them down the mountain together.

"How can I be a common person? I will laugh out loud at the sky and go out."

Bai Yuan is a bit unrestrained.

Li Huan and Yang Fangyu's eyes lit up.

"A Yuan, I didn't expect that you can write poems with the style of a poet."

Yang Fangyu couldn't help but praise.

Even though he looks big and strong now, he was a handsome and elegant scholar a few years ago.

But not everyone is qualified to become a student of Yingshan Academy, one of the four major academies in Xuanyang.

In terms of literary talent, Yang Fangyu can actually be considered a master.

Li Huan also savored it for a moment: "Although it's not neat enough, it's powerful and bold."

Listen to the two of them praising.

Bai Yuan couldn't help but blushing.

Unintentionally, he also started to plagiarize.

This can be considered as completing the necessary skills for a time traveler.

Before he knew it, he had sent the two of them all the way into Huanglong City.

Although Huanglongfu is under curfew due to the war, these things naturally have little to do with the three of them.

No one guarding the city gate dared to stop Bai Yuan, the Tongzhi of Lingzhou.

Bai Yuan looked at the two people's swaying backs and felt a little dizzy.

The wine that can make a martial artist drunk is certainly not ordinary wine.

He didn't know the Six Meridians Divine Sword, and didn't have the ability to force the wine out of his body, so he just relied on his strong physical fitness to resist.

Fortunately, he has now opened the Divine Palace and his strength has increased, so drinking five kilograms is not a problem at all.

One person took down Yang Fangyu and Li Huan.

He raised his right hand to his forehead and smiled bitterly, deciding to drink less in the future.

Just as he turned to leave, a clear voice rang out.

"My little friend, please stay."

Bai Yuan paused.

He turned around to look for the source of the voice and saw an old Taoist priest in a dirty robe but with a rather extraordinary face looking at him with a smile.

"This Taoist Priest?"

The old Taoist priest said: "My friend, I see that you have extraordinary bones and are a rare talent in martial arts. Why don't you become my disciple?"

"."

Bai Yuan was speechless. He didn't expect that such a bloody plot as the one in the storybook where he met a master accepting a disciple while walking would happen to him.

"Master, I already have a master."

The old Taoist priest said: "It doesn't matter. My lineage doesn't have so many rules."

"."

Bai Yuan: "May I ask why the Taoist priest wants to accept me as his disciple?"

"Everything has its destiny. You are destined to be my disciple."

"."

Bai Yuan felt that the old Taoist priest was probably talking nonsense.

He has mastered the Four-Nine Book to the master level. Divination may be able to predict future events, but it does not seem to be of much use in recruiting disciples.

If he were an ordinary Taoist, he would have turned around and left long ago.

The reason why I said a few more words today is because the old Taoist priest in front of me is too ordinary.

This ordinary is not that ordinary.

At Bai Yuan’s current level, he can see the uniqueness of everyone, whether they are ordinary people or martial artists.

Everyone is different from everyone else.

But the old Taoist priest in front of him seemed to be integrated with everything. It was impossible to find any characteristics at all. And not being able to find any characteristics was his biggest characteristic.

Be like the light!

Bai Yuan thought of a unique realm of Taoism.

The old Taoist priest said: "Fate cannot be violated. This is the cause and effect between you and me."

Bai Yuan still shook his head: "Master, I don't believe in fate."

Although it was obvious at first glance that the old Taoist priest in front of him was no ordinary person and was very likely a Taoist master, Bai Yuan had no plans to become his disciple for the time being.

Although he had already worshipped Xue Gui and Dong Wanjun, and he and Zhou Siming were not master and disciple in name, they were master and disciple in reality.

Bai Yuan was certainly afraid of being bound by the rules of the martial arts world, but now he had seen a bright future and no longer needed guidance from others.

The old Taoist sighed softly.

It seems that it is almost impossible for him to accept the young man in front of him as his disciple today.

"I am ashamed to say that I am short of money and have not eaten for seven days. I wonder if you can give me a meal?"

Bai Yuan suddenly realized.

It turns out that there is a lot more to learn if you want to travel the world.

The old Taoist priest's method of taking in disciples for free meals is truly unheard of.

After a little thought, Bai Yuan nodded in agreement.
