Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 158 Old God

"Wenxian Tower"

Ning Zhongtian was stunned.

"Why does this name sound so familiar? I seem to have heard it somewhere before. Oh, right, Li Rui!"

While he was thinking.

The old Taoist priest stood up and said with a chuckle, "This must be Leader Ning of the Tiandi League. I have heard of you for a long time."

Ning Zhongtian just felt flattered.

The aura of the old Taoist priest was no weaker than that of Jiang Linxian. He was definitely a great master. He was just a small alliance leader and it was not like he had admired her for a long time. He was just being polite and giving her face.

We should still have this self-awareness.

He quickly bowed and clasped his fists: "Master, you are too polite."

We've met.

Jiang Linxian was not in a hurry to talk about the matter, but pressed his palms and said, "Sit down first."

Seeing this, Ning Zhongtian had no choice but to find a seat near Jiang Linxian but not between the two of them.

The three of them sat down.

Jiang Linxian then continued, "Master, you have been searching for immortals for many years. Have you gained anything?"

The old Taoist's name is Zhang Gu, and he is the elder of Wenxian Tower.

Although Wenxian Tower is a hidden sect, it is by no means completely cut off from the outside world. It’s just that the people they contact are of too high a level, and ordinary people cannot reach that level.

It was by chance that Jiang Linxian came into contact with this old Taoist priest and learned that there was an Wenxian Tower in the world.

The two became close friends regardless of age difference.

Of course, they are friends regardless of age. The old Taoist once said when he was drunk that he was over 130 years old.

The difference is at least three generations.

Taoist Zhang sighed, "The path to immortality is hard to find. I search for it every day, just as a way to refine my mind in this world."

Jiang Linxian was curious: "Master, the last time we met was four years ago. It's really unexpected that you came to my house today."

Zhang Laodao laughed:
"A few days ago, I, the old Taoist, felt that Fulin was very kind, so I gave him some rice."

"What do you mean?"

"Sixty-eight, purple road, red dust, buried heroes, practice Taoism, refine Qi, intend to cross the immortal sky, benefit in the southeast."

"I walked all the way to the territory of Anning Prefecture, and then I remembered that Brother Jiang was working in Anning Prefecture, so I came here to find him."

A strange light flashed in Jiang Linxian's eyes.

The so-called rice scattering of six or eight lots by the old Taoist is actually the Taoist rice divination method.

According to legend, it was created by Taoist Master Lu.

When you pass by the land god temple, you can grab three handfuls of rice. The first handful is the number of hundreds, and then divide it by ten and take the remainder. For example, if you grab one hundred and sixty-four, the remainder is four when divided by ten, which is four hundred. The second handful is the number of tens, and the third handful is the number of ones. After the number is greater than three hundred and eighty-four, subtract three hundred and eighty-four, and you get the number of the fortune.

Everyone can do Sami.

The key lies in how to interpret the signature.

Only a Taoist priest with a high level of cultivation can glimpse the secrets from three handfuls of rice.

Jiang Linxian laughed: "Master Zhang, I think you are thirsty for wine, so you come to me on purpose to ask for wine. According to what you said, then I am your destiny."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Laodao just laughed a few times.

The results of divination are only a general direction; the specific opportunity depends on personal luck.

Otherwise, after so many divinations, he should have found his destiny long ago.

But the reality is that since the founding of Wenxian Tower, there have been seventy-three generations, but no one has actually achieved immortality.

Just treat it as an obsession.

Seeing that he had met an expert in immortal studies today, Jiang Linxian decided to ask for advice: "I have a question, and I hope the Taoist priest can help me."

Zhang Lao said, "Brother Jiang, please feel free to speak."

"I wonder if Taoist Master Zhang has ever heard of the Ghost Sect's magical treasure."

"Have heard a little bit."

In fact, this is a humble statement made by Zhang Laodao.

Not only does he know about magic treasures, he even knows about magic.

Without him.

After Jiang Linxian handed over the magic treasure to the Lord of Dragon Court, the imperial court summoned all the great alchemists in the world to study together to crack the secret of the magic treasure.

He was not present, but his senior brother, the current owner of the Wenxian Tower, was there.

After coming back.

He just said four words: "It's not the way, it's the technique."

"It's not the way, it's the art."

Jiang Linxian listened to Taoist Zhang talking about asking the owner of the Immortal Tower about the immortal treasure, and murmured to repeat it.

Zhang Laodao continued:
"There are countless people seeking immortality in the world, and the Ghost Sect is just one of them. This immortal method probably took some strange approach and should have nothing to do with the immortal path. However, it is too early to make any conclusions, and we need to continue to study and ponder before we can know the result."

Is the emperor happy that he got the magic treasure?

Of course happy.

But do you really think you have got the chance to become an immortal?

That's not the case.

If we talk about the largest sect in the world that searches for immortals, it must be the imperial court. In fact, every few years the imperial court would find some things claiming to be immortal treasures, and then send them all to the Imperial Observatory for research one by one.

When the Imperial Observatory could not figure out something, they would seek out great alchemists from all over the world to study it together.

It is not difficult to see from the court's every move that the Lord of the Dragon Court actually did not quite believe that the Ghost Sect had really obtained any magical magic.

It's just based on the theory that it is better to kill a thousand people by mistake than to let one go.

On the one hand, the Ghost Sect showed signs of gaining momentum, so troops were sent to suppress it, and on the other hand, more information about the immortal arts was sought.

Kill two birds with one stone.

What if the Ghost Cult really has mastered the immortal magic?
Jiang Linxian recalled the eunuch's expression when she presented the treasure to him, and chuckled: "What the Taoist said makes sense, I was obsessed."

"No, Brother Jiang is the person with the clearest and most thorough mind I have ever met. Even if I don't tell you, you will surely understand it after some time."

Taoist Zhang shook his head.

He spent his entire life searching for immortals for over a hundred years, but he had only a handful of friends.

Jiang Linxian was regarded as his confidant when she was only forty years old.

Why?

It was because he was attracted by the fairy spirit on Jiang Linxian. This fairy spirit was not the same as that fairy spirit. It referred to the spiritual energy that was clear and clear in mind and close to the Tao.

The two of them talked about the mysteries of the Tao for a long time.

Ning Zhongtian almost fell asleep while listening.

If he wasn't facing his boss, he would have to force himself to cheer up.

After a long time, the topic finally fell on him.

Taoist Zhang looked at the sleepy Ning Zhongtian and laughed, "Master Ning, do you have a tiger rider under your command?"

Ning Zhongtian immediately agreed: "Master, yes."

As soon as the old Taoist priest said this, he had already guessed what would happen next.

"I brought three disciples with me on this trip. If it weren't for the chivalrous rescue of Master Ning's Tiger Riders, I'm afraid I would be alone now."

"I would like to thank you here."

After saying this, Zhang Laodao actually bowed and clasped his fists in salute.

"As expected, he came to thank you!"

Ning Zhongtian quickly bowed in return, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised when he lowered his head.

Li Rui had already informed him of this matter.

So when he heard that this old Taoist came from Wenxian Tower, he was already prepared.

Being greeted by a highly respected master of the hidden sect will give you something to brag about in the future, and you can even offer him a few more drinks.

Very useful!

Jiang Linxian's mouth corners also rose unconsciously.

The people of An Ning Wei saved the disciples of Wenxian Tower, and he, as their boss, also had more connection with Wenxian Tower.

Even though Wenxian Tower is a hidden sect, it seems to have no power or influence.

But the fact is completely contrary to what people see, the owner of Wenxian Tower is a master of immortal studies, very popular among the nobles in the capital, and even the emperor personally went to him to ask for advice.

The value of this favor is not low.

Taoist Zhang straightened up and said, "Master Ning, I came to An Ning Guard this time to make another request."

Ning Zhongtian glanced at Jiang Linxian.

I suddenly understood what was going on.

He patted his chest and said, "Master, please tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to do it for you."

Since he had gotten Jiang Linxian's nod, he certainly had nothing to worry about and all he had to do was show his attitude.

Zhang Lao said, "I wonder if there is an official named Li in Lord Ning's Tiger Camp?"

Ning Zhongtian was stunned:
"The Taoist priest is talking about the patrol officer of the Tiger Camp, Li Rui?"

Zhang Laodao nodded and said, "That should be it. I came here to look for immortals and planned to stay in Anning Mansion for a few days, but my two disciples were frightened, so I thought of staying in Anning Guard for a few days."

"I also hope that Master Ning will arrange for my two disciples to live in the Li Mansion to repay you for saving my life."

Ning Zhongtian's expression became strange. What kind of request was this?
Not only him, even Jiang Linxian didn't expect that Zhang Laodao's request would be this.

Moreover, Jiang Linxian vaguely felt that the Taoist priest had made this dish of dumplings just for the dish of vinegar.

Yes, I am the dumpling that comes as a gift.

Ning Zhongtian was confused about the situation for a moment and turned to look at Jiang Linxian.

next moment.

Jiang Linxian coughed lightly and said, "Lord Ning, it's just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks. I remember there are many empty rooms in Li Rui's house. You can stay there without worrying about it. Just don't be disgusted."

Then he added: "Of course, this matter still needs to comply with Li Rui's wishes."

Zhang Laodao smiled and nodded:

"As it should be."

Li Zhai.

stable.

The stable in Li’s house has always been just a decoration.

Although Li Rui was promoted to patrol officer and was equipped with a horse, the horse was public property and was under the unified supervision of the Horse Guard in An Ning Wei.

Wang Zhao was used to cleaning the stable thoroughly, but there was no horse in the stable at all times.

This time, the stable finally had an owner.

"Master, this red dragon horse is really extraordinary. Its sweat is blood red."

Wang Zhao's saliva almost fell to the ground.

Li Rui glanced at his disciple.

Wang Zhao was more excited when he saw a good horse than when he saw a beautiful girl.

When Li Rui thought about the fact that his disciple still had no marriage, he secretly shook his head and made a conclusion:

"Destined to be alone."

However, looking at Wang Zhao's shining eyes, Li Rui's heart moved slightly:

"Maybe we can train Xiaozhao to be a horse official?"

It is not necessary to practice martial arts or not, and respecting interests and hobbies is not the case.

Li Rui has always been open-minded.

Just as the master and his apprentice were standing in front of the stable, pondering the Red Dragon Horse—

There was a dull knock at the door.

"The master is here."

As Wang Zhao spoke, his eyes never left the Red Dragon Horse.

"Idiot."

Li Rui rolled his eyes and walked towards the door by himself without expecting Wang Zhao to open it.

"Who is it?"

He shouted loudly and pushed the door open.

There was just a small gap between the two doors, and Li Rui could just see the person standing behind the door.

Then there was a pause.

In addition to Ning Zhongtian, there were three other people standing behind him.

A man and a woman, and Li Rui actually knew them both.

"Yao Xue?!"
