Chapter 83 Undercurrent (4)
Qi Xuansu finally arrived at the gate of Qingbai Temple along the mountain road. Looking around, the huge Taoist temple was quite grand, but it was not popular enough, which made the Taoist temple very deserted and even lifeless.
The door of the Taoist temple was closed, and Qi Xuansu had no choice but to go forward and knock on the door.
After a long time, the door slowly opened a line from inside, revealing a human face.
This person is not a Taoist priest with a rank, but just an ordinary Taoist priest.
Perhaps because no one came to Qingbaiguan to burn incense for too long, the Taoist resident asked directly: "Who are you looking for?"
Qi Xuansu took out his talisman and said, "I am Qi Xuansu, a seventh-grade Taoist priest in Tiangang Hall. Please see the local master."
The Taoist civilian was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses. He hurriedly pushed open the door of the Taoist temple and invited Qi Xuansu in, asking him to wait in the gatehouse for a while. Then he went to report to the master of the temple.
The Taoist temple covers a large area, and the second half is almost uninhabited and has been abandoned for a long time, so I raised a pendant of pigs here.
Bai Yongguan stood outside the pig pen, looking at the big white pig inside, smiling. ??
The host's wife Li Zhen'er stood beside Bai Yongguan, her face pale and even shivered.
After a while, a butcher in a dirty apron came over, holding a shining cold pig knife in his hand.
"Master wants to kill pigs?" asked the butcher.
"Yes." Bai Yongguan nodded slightly.
The butcher looked at the pigs in the pig pen and asked, "I wonder which one is the master going to kill?"
Bai Yongguan reached out and pointed to the whitest and cleanest pig among them, and said, "This one is good."
Li Zhen'er couldn't help but exclaim and almost fainted.
Bai Yongguan was indifferent.
Seeing this, the butcher was secretly wondering, was this pig raised by his wife? It is not a strange thing for a woman to raise cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits. I have never heard of pigs, and this hobby is very strange.
I think the master of the spectator couldn't stand it anymore, so he wanted to kill the pig.
The butcher stopped thinking deeply and walked towards the pig with a knife. The pig's face showed a look of horror like a human, and he kept retreating backwards.
Just then, there was a knock on the closed door in the backyard.
"Who?" Bai Yongguan asked, his face showing displeasure of being disturbed.
The butcher also stopped the movement in his hand.
An answer came from outside the door: "Sheng Master, there is a seventh-grade Taoist priest from Tiangang Hall who wants to see the Shen Master and is waiting in the doorman."
Bai Yongguan was slightly stunned: "The Taoist priest from Tiangang Hall."
He was silent for a while before saying, "Please invite him to the main hall and I'll go there right away."
He responded outside the door and turned around.

Bai Yongguan stared at the pig in the pigpen, and his face showed a cold look. After a long time, he snorted coldly: "Well, let's spare your life for the time being."
The butcher turned his head and looked at Bai Yongguan: "Master, is this pig still killed?"
"No more killing." Bai Yongguan said a word and turned around and left the backyard.
Li Zhen'er breathed a sigh of relief and gently stroked her chest.
The big white pig that almost died under the knife also collapsed to the ground.
Only the butcher, the second monk, was confused.
Bai Yongguan entered the main hall with a smile on his face, bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist Qi, I am a polite official in Bai Yongguan."
Qi Xuansu was surprised, because Bai Yongguan's dress was clearly a fourth-rank priest, and he hurriedly returned the courtesy: "I dare not be a mage like this."
"What mage, it's just a idler in the mountains." Bai Yongguan waved his hand, "I wonder if fellow Daoist Qi is responsible for any position in Tiangang Hall?"
"I am not talented and arrogant to serve as a deacon." Qi Xuansu replied.
Bai Yongguan said, "It turns out to be Deacon Qi. Sit down and talk." As he said that, he sat down first.
There is an unwritten rule in the Taoist sect. If the titles are high and the position is low, they will be called according to the grade, so Qi Xuansu calls Bai Yongguan "Master". If the level is low and the position is high, they will be called according to the position, so Bai Yongguan calls Qi Xuansu "Qi Deacon". As for outsiders, the level of Taoist priests shall be the basis.
Qi Xuansu also sat down, without turning around, Zhao said directly: "I'm not to hide it, Xuansu is asking for something."
"What's the matter?" Bai Yongguan looked surprised, "To be honest, I like to travel around the mountains and rivers on weekdays, and I don't often go here. I just returned to the Taoist temple today and am not familiar with many local situations."
Qi Xuansu did not mention the fact that Zhang Yuelu used the "Purple Micro Doushu" to verify, but only briefly explained the head and the ancient temple.
"This is actually the case." After hearing this, Bai Yongguan was indignant and then whispered.
After a while, Bai Yong said slowly: "In theory, as a Taoist disciple, I should not refuse, but I do not have the responsibility to arrest the demons, so..."
Qi Xuansu knew that it was because of his insufficient weight, so he had to take out the token given to him by Zhang Yuelu: "Master Bai, I am also following the orders of the deputy hall master. I hope the mage can make an exception."
Bai Yongguan looked at the token in Qi Xuansu's hand, his eyes flashed slightly.
...
The water level of Tongtian River gradually calms down, the river surface
There are still many broken ice floating on it.
Suddenly, a palm stretched out of the river and splashed water.
Then the palm grabbed the edge of a huge piece of ice, and then the owner of the palm jumped out of the river with the force of support.
I saw this man's hair disheveled and his whole body was soaked. He was the senior Qingluan Guard who had previously overturned the boat on Tongtian River.
Today, Qingluan Guard, one commander of the third rank, is the chief officer of the Qingluan Guard; two commanders of the third rank, are in charge of the North and South rank, respectively; two commanders of the fourth rank, are directly under the commander; two commanders of the fourth rank, are subject to the actual number of commanders of the fourth rank, and are subject to the two commanders of the fourth rank.
Although the sanction envoy was from the fourth rank, one level higher than the Qianhu, the status of the two was actually not much different within the Qingluanwei.
In fact, if the commander of Qingluan Guard was relied upon by the emperor and was strong enough, then the commander who was directly under the commander of the commander could compete with the two commanders in charge of the tutors, and the tutor was on the same level as Qianhu.
If the commander of Qingluan Guard is not strong enough, then the two commanders and tutors will form a three-legged stalemate with the commander, and the status of the tutor will rise.
The commander of the Qingluan Guard is now trusted by the emperor and acted arbitrarily among the Qingluan Guard. He said the same thing. The two commanders and comrades dare not disobey at all, so the status of the sanctioned envoy should naturally be slightly lower. Of course, if you have a "faith" on your shoulders, it would be a different matter.
This person is a policing envoy named Wang Zicheng, who is affiliated with the Nanzhen Fushi. He was ordered by Tongzhi to patrol all directions, but he did not expect to be ambushed here.
Prince Cheng pointed out a string of ripples on the river surface and jumped to the shore.
At this moment, many figures appeared on the shore, and some people had already set up their formations and asked to come out of the Dharma image. Although people who are less than this level cannot ask to come out of the Dharma image, there is also a surge of divine power around them.
Prince Cheng looked around and murmured: "Three Dharma Realm Witches in the Jade Void Stage are really a big deal."
According to common sense, no matter whether the plan, the right time, the right place, external objects are considered, just based on the realm cultivation, three people in the Jade Void stage can match one person in the Return to Truth stage, four people in the Jade Void stage can beat one person in the Return to Truth stage, and five people in the Jade Void stage can almost put one person in the Return to Truth stage to death.
At this time, in addition to the three Dharma Realm Witch Zhus in the Yuxu stage, there are also six Kunlun stage Witch Zhus in the God Realm.
The so-called "Divine Blast" in the world is actually the "Divine Blast" in the world. Although it cannot manifest the Dharma image outside the body, its own divine power enters the body. It is not only because it has infinite power, but also has a strong body. It can even be invulnerable to swords and guns in a short period of time, and even more so as to the martial arts image realm. It is just like the Dharma image realm, and it is the same as the Dharma image realm.
It is difficult to last, and you cannot always ask God to be on your body. If you don't ask God to be on your body, your body will be very fragile and it will be difficult to compare with a martial artist.
At this time, these witches in the Kunlun stage have already been asked to be placed on the body and divided into several groups, centering on several witches in the Dharma Realm, forming a formation faintly.
Wang Zicheng has been in a very critical situation.
However, Qingluan Guard is not another yamen. The level of official positions is closely and intuitively connected with the level of cultivation. All members of Qingluan Guard, regardless of their official positions, must have cultivation. The higher the level of cultivation, the higher the official positions. Even if they are not good at directors and cannot hold real positions, they must have a false title. This is the rule set by Emperor Taizong back then.
In addition, Qingluan Guard must also be good at fighting and cannot have the level of cultivation. It is not just a fist, foot, weapon, firearm, but also a ruthless force. If both sides have equal cultivation and fight life and death, and pinch the other party's throat at the same time, your own throat will not die even if it breaks, and someone else will die.
Although Wang Zicheng did not base himself on his realm cultivation in Qingluan Guard, he was considered a type with weak cultivation and strong ability to manage affairs, but his whole cultivation should not be underestimated. He is a qi refining man in the stage of the Reincarnation of the God Realm.
"Kill!" The head of the Dharma Realm Witch Zhu directly ordered.
Although Wang Zicheng was shocked, he slapped out his palm and directly printed a pitch-black palm print on the chest of a Wu Zhu who was in the realm of asking for the gods, which was clearly visible.
This is the "Black Evil Palm" of Qingluanwei. It contains poison in its palm. If it is hit by a palm, it will be killed on the spot, and at the least it will be attacked by poisonous gas.
The Wu Zhu staggered back with a pale face. The other two Wu Zhu in the Yuxu stage took the opportunity to control the magic and attack Wang Zicheng.
Wang Zicheng did not dodge or avoid, and resisted the joint attack of the two without any damage.
After closer inspection, Wang Zicheng's clothes were actually wearing "paper armor", not the paper armor in the army, but folded it into the style of a character paper, throw it on his body and it can be turned into a garment armor, also known as "Divine Talisman Armor". It is not only harder than iron armor, but also can resist the energy. If the paper armor cannot be destroyed, it must not hurt the inside. It is a real top-grade spiritual object.
Prince Cheng pushed his palms and knocked them out directly.
The four Kunlun stage witches were muttering in their mouths, as if they were fearless and died, surrounding Wang Zicheng.
Wang Zicheng took a step forward, turned his palm into a fist, and hit a Wu Zhu's heart. With the sound of bone shattering, a fist-shaped bump suddenly popped up behind the Wu Zhu.
Wang Zicheng shook the body stuck to his fist, then turned his body, and his elbow suddenly retreated back, landing heavily on the chin of a Wu Zhu who wanted to attack from behind. The Wu Zhu not only smashed his chin with one elbow, but also closed his jaw suddenly, bit his tongue off, and his mouth was covered in blood.
