Before Yu Ci entered the main hall at the foot of the mountain, he heard someone laughing:
"When I was in the East China Sea, I heard about Datong Xing's name as a 'soul master'. At that time, my brothers announced the method of 'refining the mind and generating thoughts'. I have been studying this difficult problem for a long time, and it is difficult to find anything. When I saw it, I have gained enlightenment by reading this book, and I have benefited a lot.”
“It’s just about communicating with colleagues from all over the world.”
The elders' voices were still a bit stiff, but after getting along with him for a long time, Yu Ci could tell that this grumpy bald monk was actually in a pretty good mood.
After spending these two months together, Yu Ci knew that this old man was a strange person in Datongxing. His own cultivation is not high in the world of cultivation, but he is extremely accomplished in the cultivation and research of the soul, and he is a rare master of theory. Datongxing hired him as a guest minister and paid him a large sum of money every year for his research. His status was quite impressive.
The old man has a bad temper, but he has a good reputation. Those few words just touched his itch, and the visitor's identity was quite good, which made him feel happy.
At this time, Yu Ci stepped into the hall. At a glance, he could see that the female cultivator sitting opposite the old guests and hosts was wearing a high bun and cloud clothes, and her skin was like gelatin. She was very beautiful. When the female cultivator saw him entering the hall, her eyes lit up and she apologized to the elders. Then she stood up and showed a smile:
"Is this Fellow Daoist Yu from the Lichen Sect? Bichao from the Xuanyin Sect. I first came here to pay a visit to Gao Xian. I just found out yesterday that Fellow Daoist Yu was recuperating here, so I came here to meet you today."
As she spoke, she bowed slightly. This woman is not very tall, but her flesh and bones are plump and well-proportioned. She is delicate but not stingy. She looks like a pampered lady. She is quite magnanimous and has a smile as bright as a flower. She is quite amiable, especially the tiny little one at the corner of her lips. The mole, combined with the delicate face, made her smile radiate.
Is this the successor to the master of the Xuanyin Sect after Chiyin? Outside the hall, Yu Ci felt that this person was not the same as Chi Yin. Now it seems that the difference is not as big as usual.
Logically speaking, he killed Chi Yin and broke up with the Xuanyin Sect. If this successor has a straight personality, it is not impossible for him to commit murder violently. That's all, why are you still coming to visit me with a smile? Don't you know that too much is never enough?
Yu Ci couldn't grasp the man's pulse for a moment. After a brief response, he also said hello to Zhu Lao. Zhu Lao was a little bald, but he immediately stood up and said: "Master Bichao came here specifically to find you. I I won’t mix it up, let’s talk.”
After that, he nodded slightly toward Bichao, turned around and left.
Only Ci and Bichao were left in the hall. After they sat down, Bichao's wonderful eyes were looking forward to it. Seeing Yu Ci's expression was dull, he smiled and said: "I guess fellow Taoist Yu has some opinions about my visit. Here. I want to mention first that the Donghai General Forum of our sect has concluded that Chi Yin acted recklessly and almost ruined the missionary work of our sect due to personal enmity. She deserves the blame for such a result. It has nothing to do with anyone else.”
Yu Ci exclaimed: "It's a human life anyway, why doesn't Guizong blame you?"
Bichao shook her head slightly, and her high bun swayed as she stepped forward. A pearl embedded in her bun flickered, showing her nobility, which made her smile even calmer: "Master Minglan once recounted the situation to me. Changes in the behavior and character of Chiyin and fellow Taoists are the favorite things of the sect’s god. Since the god’s lord doesn’t blame them, we, the believers and servants, naturally have no reason to blame them.”
What reason is this?
Yu Ci also heard similar words from Ming Lan that day, but now when he heard Bichao say it again, he still found it ridiculous. However, the two core figures in the Xuanyin Sect said so. Yu Ci couldn't help but feel that although this reason was absurd, it was probably the most true one.
With this kind of preference, the Rakshasa ghost king is indeed "as his name suggests" and is extremely evil.
Ignoring Yu Ci's slander, Bichao continued: "I know that my friends have a clear eye and a clear heart, and there is no need to beat around the bush on some things. I came to Cliff City with no other mission than to preach. The teachings of this sect have become very popular in the East. , however, few people know about the Western Territory. Ten years ago, our religion invited the avatar of the God Lord to come to the west, hoping to make a difference. However, due to various reasons, the progress has been unsatisfactory.
"Now that Taoist friends have opened up the situation, the cliff city can be said to have a completely new look, and the blue tide is not talented. I am willing to preach with all my heart and make the essence of our religion known to the world. In order to show this intention, I would like to hold a ceremony on the fifth day of April in A banquet was held at Tianyi Tower to invite fellow Taoists to make my intention of coming to the west known, and to resolve the previous unhappiness at the banquet. In addition to visiting fellow Taoists, I came here today to invite fellow Taoists. It’s an honor to have Jade Zhi in person.”
As she spoke, she stood up again, took out a dark gold invitation from her sleeve, and held it in both hands to send it over.
Yu Ci did not immediately reach out to pick it up.
In his opinion, what Bichao said was almost like telling lies. Others don’t know about the activities of the Xuanyin Sect and the Purifying Water Altar, so doesn’t he know about it?
But his mind turned around, and when he chewed every word of the female nun's words, he felt that there seemed to be a deep meaning in the female nun's words in front of him. What multiple reasons, what opens up the situation, what brings a new look, all have their own meaning, is this... a temptation?
Thinking of this, he had a slight thought in his mind. He wanted to send a message through a secret channel. Then he took the invitation card with the female cultivator's fragrance still in it in his hand. He looked at it briefly and saw the time written on it. The location and the wording are very appropriate. After pondering for a moment, he said:
"Senior Brother Xie Yan is in charge of the cliff city and controls the overall situation; Senior Brother Baode is in the middle to coordinate and is ten times more talented and virtuous than me. Why should my master sacrifice the near and seek the far away?"
Bichao smiled and said: "The current situation in Cliff City was brought about by Taoist Fellows. Immortal Master Xie Yan and Taoist Master Baode have both stated many times that everything should be based on the rules established by Fellow Taoists. It can be said that Fellow Taoists He is the most important person in Cliff City now. Without inviting Taoist friends, any banquet will be dimmed and even meaningless."
This is why Xie Yan and Baode stood up for him. In this way, he became even more unable to agree easily, so he shook his head and said:
"I already know the master's intention. However, the mountain gate ordered me to be on duty here. The responsibility lies with me and I cannot move lightly."
Bi Chao tried to persuade him a few more times, but when he saw that he was determined and had a look of disappointment on his pretty face, he sighed, shook his head and stopped insisting. He turned around and said, "I heard that fellow Taoist souls have been injured and need long-term cultivation. Our religion's industry in the East China Sea is rich in spices, among which there is a kind of 'benzoin', which can refresh the mind and spleen, warm the soul, and have a good effect on fellow Taoist injuries when burned in the room. Maybe it will be beneficial... Xiangnu!"
She said hello, and there was a dark figure next to her that seemed to have no feet on the ground and came over silently.
Yu Ci was slightly startled. This person was wearing a hooded cloak, his head and face were covered tightly, and he even had thin black silk gloves on his hands. No trace of skin was exposed. He was dressed strangely, and he was holding a bow in his hand. The mountain furnace is about two feet high. It is a crane standing on the back of a turtle, with the furnace body above its head. The furnace cover is pointed like a mountain, and the whole body is hollow, with the shape of a bird or animal. The work is extremely delicate.
Such an image is supposed to be very eye-catching, but Yu Ci didn't even notice it when he was standing in the corner of the hall. Especially when you get closer, you find that there is almost no breath on this person, and there is no body odor at all. If you close your eyes, you may think that there is no one in front of you.
What is going on with this guy... When he was confused, Bichao ordered the person to place the Boshan stove on the table next to him, and said with a smile: "This thing is imitated from the famous magic weapon in this world, the turtle and crane stove. Although it is not as magical as the original, burning incense in it still has a wonderful effect, and it complements the benzoin. It is just a small gift, but I hope you will accept it."
It is a wonder that the dignified master of the Xuanyin Sect has such high etiquette. Yu Ci thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's disrespectful."
Seeing him accept it, Bichao smiled as brightly as a flower. It seemed that he had completely forgotten about being rejected before, so he stood up and left. Yu Ci refused to be polite to her and nodded to see the guests off. But because of Bichao's identity, he had to send her outside the pier no matter what.
Walking side by side with Bichao in the narrow corridor, we were silent all the way until the boulder at the front of the corridor moved sideways and the skylight filtered in. Bichao turned his face sideways, spoke softly, and exhaled like a orchid: "If my fellow Taoist has some free time in the future, you might as well go to Youqiu Palace as a guest..."
The soft tone/reverberating through the corridor has a different flavor. While Yu Ci was savoring it, there was a shock in the distance.
The two of them came out of the corridor at this moment. When they heard the muffled noises over there, Bichao seemed a little surprised. After looking from a distance for a moment, Fang said: "There are indeed a lot of monsters and beasts here."
Yu Ci's hearing was no better than Bi Chao's. After careful analysis, he could hear the roar of a ferocious beast in the shock. He hummed, but he was actually surprised that the movement over there was a bit louder. This was the first time in more than two months that he noticed that a ferocious beast was so manic.
This was just a small episode. At this time, Na Xiangnu had arrived in front of the car and lowered the wooden steps first.
"Sending far away without any trouble."
Bi Chao smiled brightly, lifted her skirt slightly, boarded the car slowly, and waved before entering the curtain. Then the curtain closed, and the Xiangnu drove the walking cloud beast and slowly drove away.
Yu Ci stood for a while, waiting for the luxurious car to go away before walking into the corridor. The commotion in the distance seemed to be continuing. Before the arrival of Bi Chao, Yu Ci would definitely go to see what was going on, but now he had more important things to do.
Back in the room, Yu Ci sat on the bed with his eyes closed. After a few breaths, he became calm and clear. Then his ears moved, and a very distant sound came back from a special channel.
That was the sound of wheels grinding the ground.
There is no doubt that Bichao has Huandan cultivation, and the "Xiang Slave" beside her is also unfathomable. However, no matter how powerful the two of them are, they would never have imagined that there is a human being attached to them under their carriage. The creature the size of an earthworm spread out its senses and included the entire carriage.
That's an ichthyosaur.
For the little guy, Yu Ci used the "spiritual feeding method" to feed and control him, and also embedded the starlight of divine will. This little creature has clearly become the most suitable spy. The only regret is that as the quality deteriorates, its sensing range also decreases. Now it is only about three feet in diameter, but it is enough to calculate whether it is intentional or not.
Improve the form of the divine will starlight to "embed" the divine soul. In addition to having a long duration, after careful adjustment, it can also receive more levels of information. For example:
Voice!
When Yu Ci adjusted the structure of the distant divine starlight and filtered the information levels, the visible area due to the fish and dragon became dim again, but the sound coming from the carriage became increasingly clear. The first sentence Yu Ci heard was:
"After these days, do you know the difference between you and me?"
This was Bichao's voice, with a deep voice. Compared with the previous words in the hall, it was more majestic. Yu Ci was slightly startled. Is there anyone else in the car?

It is indeed late today... but the update time may be more chaotic in the next few days. Well, I have to apologize in advance. But what is certain is that the daily updates will not change, again. It's getting late, so those brothers and sisters who haven't slept should vote red before going to bed. In addition, friends who see me the next day, I hope they can also vote red as soon as possible. There have been more female characters in the past two days, so I hope they won’t be stereotyped... Of course, my description hasn’t officially started yet.
