Chapter 118: The old and new
When Qi Xuansu's flying boat landed in Guijian Lake, the shore was already full of people. Except for the Landa Zhenren and the Zhenren Yao Shu, the Zhenren of the Zhenren of the Palace, did not show up, everyone else arrived.
Including the Chief Vice-President Xu Jiaorong, the Second Vice-President Pei Xiaolou, the Third Vice-President Ji Jiaorzhen, the Fourth Vice-President Chen Jianchou, as well as Chen Shuwen of Nanyang United Trading Company, Liu Gui of Nan Borneo Company, Yuheng Star Lord of Ziguang Society, Shangguan Ya of the Eight Tribes, Huanji and Pei Xiaoyun of Fenglinzhou Trading Company, as well as Chen Jianqiu, the Lord of Dayu, etc.
This is all for welcome to the hall.
Will Lord Yao be unhappy?
Of course I would be unhappy, but now it is not the same as before. Whether or not I can participate in the small discussion is the threshold. Although Qi Xuansu's position and power have shrunk, the power of the small discussion has completely made up for this. Qi Xuansu's position in the Taoist sect is already higher than Yao Shu, and Yao Shu can't say anything. If you really want to meet, Yao Shu will have to be shorter.
Xu Jiaorong led the leadership, including Pei Xiaolou, Ji Jiaozhen, Chen Jianchou and others, and nearly a hundred people stood.
Qi Xuansu was riding in a flying boat, and no one needed to open the door. When the gangway was put down, Xu Jiaorong estimated Qi Xuansu's pace and speed as he walked down the gangway, and went forward just right.
There are also many things here. If you stand very close at the beginning, it will cause Qi Xuansu to greet people when he is still walking on the gangway. Then he will be very different and condescending, which will appear unequal and unfavorable. Therefore, it is completely necessary to set a distance in advance. When Qi Xuansu walks down the gangway, go forward with the trend, and cooperate with the pace of the big man, it is just right.
Therefore, the worship of power is rooted in the core, and studying these "arts" has indeed reached its peak.
These things make the parties involved indulge in it, and they make the bystanders disgusted.
No wonder so many parents will control their children's oppression for the first time, because many parents experience the taste of power for the first time in their children, and it is even the only time in their lives.
This is also one of the reasons why Qi Xuansu is quite indulgent to Xiao Yin. In essence, he does not lack power, and there is no need to show his authority in his children. What he wants is not filial piety, but silent warmth.
Qi Xuansu and Xu Jiaorong greeted each other and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu, I haven't seen each other for a long time. How are you doing recently?"
"I'm worried about Taiwei, everything is fine," said Xu Jiaorong. "I heard that Zhenren Qi was unhappy some time ago. I wonder if he has been getting better recently?"
Qi Xuansu smiled: "You are well-informed. Three months have passed since July 15th to October 15th, so it is naturally better."
"That's good." Xu Jiaorong gave in to the side and gave up Pei Xiaolou behind him.
Pei Xiaolou also took a half step forward and greeted Qi Xuansu.
"Uncle Master." Qi Xuansu said, "We have just met the family dinner on the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th, so I won't say hello to you."
When Donghua became a real person, he did not promote his relatives much except for continuing to pave the way for Qi Xuansu, his successor, especially the Pei family and the Yao family. Pei Xiaolou, as the brother of the Grand Head and the seventh generation of disciples, was just the second vice-president. In this regard, the Grand Head and the Grand Head is much better than the three major families.
Zhang Yuelu was behind Qi Xuansu and also greeted Xu Jiaorong and Pei Xiaolou.
Qi Xuansu greeted others one by one. When Qi Xuansu was beaten like a dog in the water by the people of the court, he joked that he was poor, short, and long, and Ji Jiaozhen stood up to help him once. He would never forget this matter in his life, so the two talked for a while, but Qi Xuansu did not show off his airs and maintained his respect for Senior Ji back then.
Then there is Chen Jianchou. Although the two are the same age, they are more like masters and apprentices or fathers and sons in this relationship. Who made Qi Xuansu usually talk about friendship with his seventh generation of disciples? Qi Xuansu is just like Xun's son, but Qi Xuansu is a kind father and can't be harsh in both voice and expression, so there is no big problem.
Next was Zhang Yuelu, and everyone was still respectful. No matter what, Zhang Yuelu also served as the chief in the Borneo Taoist Palace. Although the quarrel was not so pleasant, the face of the Zhang family was there. It can be foreseen that Zhang Yuelu would most likely become the wife of the chief priest and the third Taoist priest in the future.
The past will eventually pass, just as what should come will definitely come.
The past serves the present, the present serves the future.
Next is the brightest star among the nine generations of disciples, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu's only successor, Xiao Yin's fame is very high, and it is difficult not to pay attention to it, but Xiao Yin's childlike character is difficult to pay attention to it as much as Qi Xuansu.
Xiao Yin and Xu Jiaorong were not very familiar with each other, but just greeted him and chatted with Pei Xiaolou and Ji Jiaorzhen in a hot conversation. They had the same meaning: Lao Lin did not talk about his loyalty to his friends, so he ran to Luosazhou alone to be a high-ranking official and left us behind. Now that there is one of the three friends in Nanyang, should I join me, right?
Before Xiao Yin proclaimed himself "State of Military Arts" and "Qi Tian Xiaosheng", there was another name "Boss Xiao Yin", so the boss of the Three Friends of Nanyang was her. In the past, it was Lao Lin, but now it is her.
Pei Xiaolou deliberately teased Xiaoyin: "It's not impossible to be the boss, it's just that generations are in chaos. I am Tianyuan's uncle. If you become the boss, how do you discuss with Tianyuan?"
Xiao Yin said for granted: "I am his father."
The next moment, Qi Xuansu grabbed Xiao Yin's back neck, and even if Xiao Yin had the cultivation level of a fake immortal, he could not break free. After all, Qi Xuansu had a real immortal cultivation level.
Xiao Yin immediately changed his mind: "Old Qi, I was wrong, you are my father."
Qi Xuansu threw away Xiao Yin and turned to Xu Jiaorong and said, "I want to meet Lan Da Zhenren."
As the former secretary and the successor of Landa Zhenren, Xu Jiaorong has already arranged: "Landa Zhenren is waiting for Qi Zhenren."
Qi Xuansu glanced at Zhang Yuelu: "Qingxiao, we agreed."
Zhang Yuelu was a little reluctant, but she still nodded.
There are not many things that can make Zhang Yuelu reluctant. She is not afraid of hardship, fatigue, and even more afraid of danger. She just doesn't like social engagements.
But Qi Xuansu did not intend to waste too much time in Borneo, so he decided to go directly to meet the Landa Zhenren. Those who came to greet him could not leave it alone and could not make people feel cold. So he asked Zhang Yuelu to come forward on his behalf, so he would not feel neglected. After all, that was Zhang Yuelu. If Qi Xuansu died accidentally, 90% of them would be Zhang Yuelu to take over.
So the troops were divided into two groups, Qi Xuansu and Xu Jiaorong went to meet Lan Da Zhenren, Zhang Yuelu and Xiaoyin went to receive the reception.
In Sheji Palace, Qi Xuansu has not come at some point. After leaving here, Qi Xuansu travels across the north and south. It is said that it is not long, but the memory is very long.
However, there has been basically no major changes in Sheji Palace.
Qi Xuansu came to the signing room of Landa Real Estate.
Xu Jiaorong did not follow in, but just sent Qi Xuansu to the door.
There were only two people in the signing room.
The real person of Lan Da did not stand up and signaled Qi Xuansu to sit casually. At the same time, he sighed: "A such a young immortal, is this the highest technical crystallization of the Creation Project?"
Qi Xuansu is not surprised that Lan Da Zhenren knew this. After all, Lan Da Zhenren was also from Quan Zhendao, but listening to Lan Da Zhenren's tone, it is obvious that it only ends here, and I won't know more.
So Qi Xuansu changed the topic: "In the next Yuan Dynasty, Jiang Da Zhenren ascended, why didn't Lan Da Zhenren go?"
The real person of Lan Da smiled faintly: "I don't have much time left. I am not a third master, so there is no need to leave stuck. They have high cultivation and can ascend smoothly without deliberately preparing. I still have to prepare in advance to avoid accidents. So I thought about it and leave after the handover. Since I will see Lao Jiang again in no time, why bother to see him off?"
Qi Xuansu was a little disappointed when she heard this.
These familiar old people are all about to ascend.
Although it is not a difference between death for Qi Xuansu, it is not much different. He still doesn't know how to transcend himself. Even if he loses the "Heart of the Stone of Eternal Life", how much cultivation can he have left?
If you take a step back, even if Qi Xuansu finds a way to ascend, it will take decades to meet again.
It is said that the torch is passed down from generation to generation, and it is said that a new generation will replace the old ones, but when these really come, they will feel so deeply.
It is like when people are in the face of the general trend, no matter how hard they try to change everything and save everything, they will eventually be defeated by the so-called destiny. The wheel of history rolls by, crushing the ridiculous mantis to death, and not stop for anyone.
Everyone's struggle in the face of established history is so small and so futile.
Immortals are no exception.
Immortals are just butterflies that can escape from big trees, but cannot shake them.
