Ask the Mirror Chapter 76: The rules for cleaning jade are self-explanatory

lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Asking Mirror!

"Huh?"

Yu Ci was involved with Mrs. Xia for some reason at first, but then she suddenly woke up. When she looked forward, she saw Mrs.

He just heard the secret, and he was completely distracted.

It was also that he had not spoken for a long time. Mrs. Xia, perhaps afraid of neglecting him, asked: "Do you think it is okay, fellow Taoist, to seek this star and one realm?"

Is this asking him to take a stand?

Yu Ci was not in a hurry to speak, and followed Xue Pingzhi's example. He picked up the wine glass on the table, played with it between his fingers, and took the opportunity to think about the "requests" of these two people in the void world.

Mrs. Xia’s purpose seems to be the easiest to guess.

For now, although it is not clear why "Taishi Star" is precious, since it is a place that various sects compete for, it is a strategic resource and a symbol of some kind.

No fight? On the contrary, others will question Feihun City's family background. As for whether you can get it after fighting for it, whether you use it with no intention, and whether you can pay the price, that is another matter.

Xue Pingzhi's fight for the waterfall realm sounds a bit like what Madam Xia said about "avoiding disasters and eliminating disasters".

However, before fighting, he first found a way out, and then he showed it openly and openly in front of his quasi-ally. Why is this?

Yu Ci looked at Xue Pingzhi. Considering her deep hatred with the Rakshasa Ghost King, she should not be restrained by external objects.

Xue Pingzhi turned his eyes over, with subtle thoughts in his eyes.

At their level, as long as they are willing to communicate and convey messages, it is not difficult.

For now, neither Xue Pingzhi nor Yu Ci will completely open their guard to the other party, but at least the emotional flow and implication are not a problem.

Yu Ci seemed to have some realization, remembering her conversation with Luo Yuniang when she first arrived at Xiyu Lake.

Perhaps you want to leave a way out for your disciple?

If this is the case, the more she fights for it, the stronger her determination becomes.

For Yu Ci, this is a "good thing".

On the other hand, Xue Pingzhi, as today's central axis, has the best understanding of the relationship between the two parties. I don't know how she described this relationship to Mrs. Xia. At present, it seems that it is indeed "misleading" , so that Mrs. Xia was a bit wishful thinking.

Did Xue Pingzhi ever tell him about the "Falling Waterfall Realm"?

The relationship between the two is quite close. They have a common enemy, the Rakshasa Ghost King, and a common friend, Ye Bin. But the specific discussion of joining forces has not yet involved any substantive content. Even if Yu Ci wants to help, he doesn't know how to do it.

But at this time, we must not do anything to "trouble",

After all, through Xue Pingzhi's actions, Mrs. Xia was "misled" on the one hand, and Yu Ci was "clear" on the other, and her attitude was very clear.

It was obvious at first sight which side Xue Pingzhi was more "close to".

When Yu Ci sorted everything out, he laughed and directly led the topic elsewhere:

"My lady said this, but it aroused my injustice."

"Oh?"

Mrs.

"It was because of my wife."

Yu Ci put down his wine glass and sighed with emotion: "Now that I am a member of the Qing Dynasty, the talents are withering and scattered among the rivers, seas and mountains. Only a few are left to hold up the stalls. Now there is a lot of waste to be done, and I wanted to do my best. Use all your strength to retrieve the things left behind by the sect, just like the 'Death Star'. Who would have thought that Madam Bixiao Qingtan had set up such rules? Pour cold water on it, how terrible it is!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Pingzhi responded calmly: "I feel the same way."

In the blink of an eye, the topic between the three people completely changed.

Perhaps this is also the direction that Xue Pingzhi is more interested in?

Mrs. Xia's dark and gleaming eyes glanced at Yu and Xue, which further confirmed the "close connection" between the two.

She pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's my fault that you two think like this - I didn't clearly understand the joints."

Listening to Mrs. Xia’s words, there seems to be some knowledge in them?

Just when I was about to listen to the high-level argument, Mrs. Xia laughed and teased:

"However, to be fair, it was Yuanjun who was aloof and unconventional, and Tianjun was only recycling the sect's old things, so he didn't realize it... In fact, in the past two days, various sects have been communicating with each other, like ours, it's really Not a few."

Yu Ci exchanged glances with Xue Pingzhi again and said:

"Want to hear the details."

Mrs. Only then can you win...other than that, there are no restrictions."

"Huh?"

Yu Ci seemed to understand something, but he still couldn't think clearly for the moment.

Just listen to Mrs. Xia continue: "When setting up this rule, people may think at first glance that only those large sects can send five monks who are proficient in talisman. Those void worlds are actually the sect's bag. In fact, this is not the case.

"Although Qingxu Taoism is Taoism, it advocates the pure and primitive way, and is not good at talismans; Siming sect's vitality is seriously damaged, and it is not enough to recuperate; Haoran sect takes Confucianism as its sect and is not good at talismans. It can be said that they know nothing about it; here in Feihun City... the two of them also know that it is difficult to send out manpower together. If there is an eventuality, it is hard to say what the various sects will do. Where? ”

In this case, why choose the form of "Cloud Dividing Talisman"?

Yu Ci heard Mrs. Can do it.

"But if it flows within the rules, two or three sects, or four or five sects, can work together to achieve something; you can also allow one family in the east and one family in the west to flourish. In this case, although you cannot monopolize it, you can You can always get some profit from it. At that time, the seven void worlds are not owned by one sect alone, but are shared by dozens or dozens of sects... I think this is the best way. ”

Yu Ci was speechless.

If it is true as Mrs. Xia said, it will be a chaotic battle if Bi Xiaoqing talks!

Maybe they were allies one time, and enemies the next, and each time there was a collision of the top talisman cultivators, pushing the trick of "Cloud Dividing Talisman" to a jaw-dropping level and realm in one fell swoop.

This scene is chaotic, but precisely because of the chaos, there is less tit-for-tat and more discussion. The atmosphere should be more interesting!

As a half-talisman cultivator, Yu Ci felt her heart surge and her hands itched unbearably as she thought about the situation that day.

He really admired Mrs. Xia, so it turned out that this was possible!

Well, if you think about it further, such an atmosphere will probably only appear within the Xiyu League. If someone like the Maritime Chamber of Commerce and the Nantian Sanxuanmen came to steal food and food, they would have worked hard to create Tianfeng. Masters of Talisman Cultivation such as Sanren and Zhenjun Qiao Xiu, but in a blink of an eye, they are all powerful masters of the Great Tribulation Technique...

Obviously, I will lose my face!

This is the xenophobic power of the Xiyu League - far stronger than "nominal" restrictions such as admission quotas.

He was very curious. If it continued to develop at this pace without his participation, how would the Maritime Chamber of Commerce, with Mrs. Hua at its head, deal with it?

Two "ladies" compete, what will be the outcome?

Looking at it from another perspective, now that he has benefited from the Xiyu Alliance, he is on the same line as the other sects of the Xiyu Alliance... Hehe, isn't he a thug?

He was not finished thinking when he heard Mrs. Xia say again: "What does Tianjun think?"

Yu Ci said confidently: "It's quite new..."

Halfway through his words, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed in his mind, and the second half of his words was inexplicably replaced: "This is considered a business partnership."

Listening to what he said, Mrs. Xia’s smile was as bright as a flower in full bloom, and it was so bright and colorful that it couldn’t be compared:

"Heaven knows it."

Yu Ci chuckled twice: "I just realized it."

The emotions in his laughter were complicated, and soon, the expression on his face gradually faded away, becoming calm and motionless.

Before, he thought too simply.

At this point, the overall strategy of Madam Xia, or the senior leaders of Xiyu League, was truly revealed.

Mrs. Xia is making the final footnote for this:

"The so-called 'Jade Cleansing Alliance' is the product of discussions and interdependence among various sects. It is used to allocate resources in the North. I dare not say that it will be absolutely fair, but the minimum level must be met. Such rules can be implemented in practice. This strategy was taken because the alliance did not want these empty worlds to be occupied by one or two lone men.

"Since Tianjun wants to re-establish the Shangqing Dynasty, he must do so within the framework of the Xiyu Alliance. The legal principles in the alliance must be understood, and this meeting of Bixiao Qingtan talks about the fundamental laws. ”

Yes, this is the way to comply with the law.

Ms.

Yu Ci took advantage of the situation and thought that the "communication" that Mrs. Xia mentioned earlier, at the level of rules, actually means that various sects are using their own talisman cultivation resources to take shares and share dividends in various void worlds.

Every talisman cultivator, every shot, is taken from the seven void worlds.

In this way, you stretch out your hand and I explore my feet. Through complex shareholdings, several void worlds will not become the private property of a limited number of sects.

This is the case for a considerable part of the jade mining area under Xiyu Lake. Therefore, with a single order from the senior officials of Xiyu League, Chixiaotian's mining area could be deprived and transferred to Yu Ci without any legal obstacles.

Chixiaotian was deprived of the mining area, which is a negative example. But if we look forward, a small and medium-sized sect engaged in the assassin industry, tens of millions of miles away from Xiyu Lake, can actually get a rich mining area in the lake. Why?

This is the role of the Jade Cleansing Alliance.

As senior leaders of the Jade Cleansing Alliance, the subjective thoughts of the powerful sects cannot be ignored, but objectively, the results that have been achieved cannot be ignored.

There is no doubt that this is a good medicine to comfort those small and medium-sized sects that do not have the strength to own mining areas or compete for the void world.

This is called "fairness"!

However, things are not that simple.

Yu Ci was not distracted by Mrs. Xia's few words. At the same time, Mrs. Huanrong's low laughter also entered his heart.

When the two of them put it together, the situation they saw would become even more in-depth.

In the final analysis, the Jade-Cleaning Alliance is the Jade-Cleaning Alliance under the shadow of the great sect, and it is the Jade-Cleaning Alliance under the leadership of a strong man, and nothing else. To say that several big clans are all kind-hearted people, I'm afraid they themselves don't believe it.

Since the shareholdings there are complicated and intertwined, with large and small sects involved, ordinary people may only be able to see the surface, but large sects like Qingxu Daode Sect and Feihun City stand at a high place and have a bright mind. It is entirely possible to use various means to disperse and reunite them and regain control of the greatest interests.

The simplest way: with the strength of a few large sects, take the initiative to reach out and say that you want to help those small and medium-sized sects occupy seats. Can the latter refuse to agree?

From this perspective, the "Cloud Dividing Talisman" that made Yu Ci's blood boil just now can be said to be just a "discussion", or simply a formality.

The really crucial step is done before Bixiao talks.

For each major sect, if its holdings can achieve sufficient "cross-coverage", its income will definitely be more substantial than if it owns one or two void worlds alone.

Moreover, such a method is equivalent to an extra layer of cover and a certain degree of concealment. When it comes to actually doing things, the so-called constraints are negligible. If something unexpected happens, conflicts can be transferred and resolved in the complex and confusing chain of rights and interests.

If Yu Ci really does what Mrs. Xia said and works within the structure of the Xiyu Alliance, this is the important power that he must strive for now and in the future.

This is called "control".

And this is not the end yet. If you look at it with a villain's heart, Yu Ci can complain now:

Whether it is Yuanxu Tianjun or Shangqing Housheng, they are all top-notch figures. Especially his own accomplishments in talismans are obvious to all. As he joked before, he is the most useful "thug".

But there were only four days before the day of Bi Xiao's talk. Besides Madam Xia, which other sect would communicate with him about this matter?

None!

What is this?

Can Yu Ci think so: This may be regarded as another restriction set by each sect on the Shangqing Sect after Yu Ci forcibly broke the situation in "Eternal Clouds"?

Shangqing Sect’s strength may be supported by Yuanxu Tianjun and Housheng, but what about the connections?

No one wants to play with you, so what can you do?

On Xiyu Lake, the definition of "powerful" is by no means simply based on "strength", but also includes more complex "power" factors.

It can be seen from the rules described by Mrs. The strength on the books is likely to eventually succumb to the undercurrent.

Yu Ci already had a similar understanding when he was assassinated.

This is the "heart of the world."

Now, he can also think that the current situation is an implicit warning from the senior leaders of Xiyu League:

I'll give you a "Death Star" to show you some face, and then, go have fun!

Fortunately, "people's hearts" will never be monolithic. Just like Mrs. Xia, while bringing "warning", she also sent "goodwill".

What Mrs. Xia gave away was an opportunity to participate in the distribution.

Now, Yu Ci has completely understood what Mrs. Xia wants him to do.

Although Yu Ci is still not sure about the role of "Taishi Star" in spiritual practice, judging from the current situation, this star may be the focus of all "void worlds" that truly reflects strength and requires seeing the true chapter. .

After embodying "fairness" and "control", "the heart of the world" must also play a role.

It is not just about Yu Ci and Shangqing Sect.

For those big people, who can really gain a dominant position in this big net of "the world's hearts", or simply be the "hand" that casts and closes the net - Taishi Star is that one logo.

The Qingxu Daode Sect is going to fight, the Feihun City is going to fight, the Siming Sect and the Haoran Sect are going to fight, and there might be some careerist who wants to fish in troubled waters and make a profit.

Under the so-called "fairness" principle, each sect may not be "one man", but the share it occupies, who has the dominant power, etc., will definitely stir up troubles.

Because of this, Mrs. Xia set her sights on Yu Ci.

Yu Ci can also imagine that since long-term interests are involved, this is not just about which side to contribute to in "Bixiao Qingtan", but also involves a question of taking sides and whether it can be integrated into the ecology of the Xiyu Alliance. The problem.

No one will believe that "allies" are natural, but whether they form an alliance or split up, they all need to pay a corresponding price within the structure of the Jade Cleansing Alliance.

Mrs.

Yu Ci nodded slightly: "I fully understand Madam's intention..."

This is the end.

When it comes to the issue of stance, Yu Ci definitely doesn't want to be too harsh. At this time, Xue Pingzhi's role comes into play.

In the upper position, Xue Pingzhi said leisurely: "The thoughts of the big sects are really different from those of us idlers. In my opinion, it is wonderful to have one or two old friends who come and go frequently in the waterfall world; It’s just that Taishi Star, my sister has thought about it, it is extremely difficult to win, and it is not easy to use it.”

"That's why it depends on Tianjun's methods."

Mrs. Come on, the rest of the people are not qualified either... I think Master Housheng can use it."

Where can I find the Queen Saint for you?

Yu Ci laughed dumbly. As for the "nine laws of heaven and man", he kept them in his heart. He would ask Mrs. Huanrong later to find out.

Since then, Xue Pingzhi has truly acted as a "shield" for his allies, bringing the topic back to the mysteries of Taishi Star.

Mrs. Xia, who is such a person, naturally knows that it is impossible for Yu Ci to express her position clearly tonight. She was not impatient and did not mention relevant matters. She chatted with Yu and Xue for most of an hour. Only then did he say goodbye.

When they were leaving, Murong Qingyan and Luo Yuniang appeared out of nowhere, each standing behind their elders. The former even smiled at Yu Ci.

Oddly enough, Yu Ci understood what she meant immediately.

After pondering for a while, he said: "Senior Sister Murong, we can't say goodbye today... Anyway, you know where I live now. When you have free time, you can come over and I'll treat Senior Sister to a drink."

Murong Qingyan smiled and agreed, saying that he would visit in three days, but he happened to be stuck before Bi Xiaoqing could talk.

In front of her, Mrs. Xia clearly sent a subtle glance.

This is "unspoken".

By then, Yu Ci's attitude will naturally come to light.

But at the moment, what Yu Ci wanted to do more was something else.

Facing the night wind, he noticed that strands of unique fragrance were drifting from Mrs. Xia's body and into his nose.

He really wanted to ask: Madam, when did you meet Su Qizhe?

But in the end, he still suppressed this impulse and made a mental note:

We must put more pressure on Yourui in the past two days, at least let her find out the clues...

If he doesn't understand it, how can he make a decision with peace of mind?

After Mrs. Xia left, Yu Ci did not leave immediately, and returned to the hall with Xue Pingzhi.

Because of the previous incident, the relationship between the two became closer. As soon as Fang sat down, Xue Pingzhi sighed:

"For more than ten kalpas, although the Xiyu Alliance has never been monolithic, it has always stood firm for its own reasons. However, it is too difficult for outsiders to integrate into it."

It can be seen from the attitude of Mrs.

In the network of hearts and minds of the world, mobilize the power that can only be looked up to at ordinary times - as long as Yu Ci is willing to incorporate the resurrected Shangqing Sect into the overall framework of the Xiyu Alliance, everything is possible.

And this kind of "mobilization", if done well, can be achieved through the so-called "interest exchange" at little or even no cost.

The difference in price will be passed on to those sects with lower levels and lower status through the complicated chain of interests.

Yu Ci has no doubt that Mrs. Xia can do it.

What puzzled him very much was that from beginning to end, Mrs. Xia did not mention the Rakshasa Ghost King in a single word, and Xue Pingzhi did not say anything explicitly or implicitly.

Is the center of gravity off track?

When he was about to ask for more information, Xue Pingzhi took the initiative to speak:

"Mrs. It’s been almost thirty years.”

Named disciple... Yu Ci could tell that Xue Pingzhi was not very close to that disciple, and he didn't even mention his name.

How can I put it this way, Heiji Yuanjun is also a temperamental person. He can go against her original intention and accept a disciple to teach her skills. Either the disciple is really talented and talented, or he has to do it because of his favor.

At present, the latter is still the majority.

"Is it Mrs. Xia's request?"

"No, I do need it."

"Did Yuanjun ever tell her that he wanted to deal with the guy from Donghai?"

"No."

Yu Ci frowned and simply said: "Then I won't beat around the bush. Don't blame Yuanjun if there is anything rude. Mrs. Xia's situation is already the same as that of Feihun City. It is absolutely impossible for him to go against the Ming Huo Zhanzhang in the East China Sea...other than that, what else can Yuan Jun expect her to do?"

Xue Pingzhi did not feel dissatisfied, and the corners of his lips even curved slightly: "Then, from my perspective, fellow Taoist, what can she expect from me?"

Yu Ci was speechless for a moment.
