Evergreen Immortal

Chapter 158 Old Immortal

"Wenxian Tower"

Ning Zhongtian was stunned.

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

Just as he was thinking.

The old Taoist priest stood up and laughed: "This must be the leader Ning of the Tiandi League. I have heard of you for a long time."

Ning Zhongtian felt flattered.

The aura of the old Taoist priest was no weaker than Jiang Linxian. He was an absolute master. He was just a small leader. He really couldn't say that he had heard of you for a long time. It was all courtesy.

This self-knowledge should be maintained.

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

They met.

Jiang Linxian didn't rush to talk about things first, but pressed his palms: "Sit down first."

Ning Zhongtian had to find a seat near Jiang Linxian and not between the two of them to sit down when he saw this.

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 priest's name was Zhang Gu, and he was the elder of Wenxian Tower.

Although the 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 too high-level, and ordinary people can’t get in touch with that level.

Jiang Linxian also met this old Taoist by chance, and then he knew that there was a Wenxian Tower in the world.

The two of them became friends regardless of age.

Of course, they were friends regardless of age. The old Taoist once said when he was drunk that he was already more than 130 years old.

At least three generations apart.

Taoist Zhang sighed: "The immortal road is hard to find. I search for it every day. Just think of it as a way to refine my mind in the mortal world."

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

Taoist Zhang laughed:

"A few days ago, I felt that Fulin was very kind, so I scattered some rice."

"What do you think?"

"Sixty-eight lots, purple roads and mortal world, buried heroes, cultivating the truth and refining qi, intending to cross the immortal sky, benefiting from 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."

Jiang Linxian's eyes flashed with a strange light.

The so-called rice scattering and sixty-eight lots of this old Taoist are actually the Taoist rice divination method.

It is said that it was created by Taoist Master Lu.

When you pass by the temple of the God of Land, you can grab three handfuls of rice. The first handful is the number of hundreds, and then divide it by ten to get the remainder. For example, if you grab 164 rice grains, the remainder is 4, which is 400. The second handful is the number of tens, and the third handful is the number of ones. If the number is greater than 384, then subtract 384, and you get the number of the lot.

Everyone can do rice throwing.

The key is to see how to interpret the lot.

Only Taoist priests with profound cultivation can get the secret of heaven from ordinary three handfuls of rice.

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

Taoist Zhang just laughed a few times when he heard it.

The result of divination is only a general direction. The specific opportunity depends on personal luck.

Otherwise, he should have found the destiny of the immortal long ago after so many divinations.

But the reality is that the Wenxian Building has been passed down for seventy-three generations since its founding, and no one has really achieved immortality.

Just treat it as an obsession.

Seeing that he met an expert in immortal studies today, Jiang Linxian planned to ask him: "There is one thing that I hope the Taoist priest can help me with."

Zhang Laodao: "Brother Jiang, please feel free to tell me."

"I wonder if Taoist priest Zhang has heard of the immortal treasure of the Ghost and Dark Sect."

"I have heard a little bit about it."

In fact, this is Zhang Laodao's humble statement.

Not only the immortal treasure, he even knows about the immortal method.

Nothing else.

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

He was not there, but his senior brother, the current owner of the Wenxian Building, went there.

After returning.

He just said four words: "It's not Tao, it's a technique."

"It's not Tao, it's a technique."

Jiang Linxian listened to Zhang Laodao talking about asking the owner of the Immortal Tower about the judgment of the immortal treasure, and murmured and followed it again.

Zhang Laodao continued:

"There are countless people in the world who seek immortals, and the Ghost and Nether Sect is just one of them. This immortal method probably took some strange way and should have nothing to do with the immortal way, but all judgments are too early, and we need to continue to study and ponder to know the result."

Is the emperor happy that he got the immortal treasure?

Of course he is happy.

But does he really think he has got the opportunity to become an immortal?

That's not the case.

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

If the Imperial Observatory can't figure out what it studies, it will look for great alchemists all over the world to study together.

From the actions of the court, it is not difficult to see that the Lord of the Dragon Court does not really believe that the Ghost and Nether Sect really got some immortal method.

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

On the one hand, the Ghost Sect had already shown signs of gaining momentum, so they sent troops to suppress it, and on the other hand, they wanted to dig out more information about the immortal arts.

Kill two birds with one stone.

What if the Ghost Sect really mastered the immortal arts?

Jiang Linxian recalled the expression on the eunuch's face when he presented the immortal treasure to him, and chuckled: "What the Taoist said makes sense, I am obsessed with appearances."

"No, Brother Jiang is the person with the clearest and most thorough mind I have ever seen. I don't say anything, but you will definitely understand it after some time."

Taoist Zhang shook his head.

He has been searching for immortals for more than a hundred years, and he has only a few friends.

Jiang Linxian was introduced as his confidant when he was only forty years old.

Why?

Why don't you fall in love with the ray of immortal energy in Jiang Linxian's body? This immortal energy is not the other's. It refers to the spiritual energy that has a clear mind and is close to the great road.

The two had a mysterious discussion.

It took a long time.

Ning Zhongtian almost fell asleep listening to it.

If he hadn't faced his boss, he would have had to cheer up.

After a long time, the topic finally came to him.

Zhang Laodao looked at the sleepy Ning Zhongtian and chuckled: "Master Ning, do you have a running tiger under your command?"

Ning Zhongtian immediately agreed: "Taoist Master, yes."

As soon as the old Taoist priest said a word, he had already guessed the next plot.

"I took a total of three apprentices with me on this trip. If Master Ning's Benhuqi hadn't come to the rescue with chivalry, I'm afraid the old man would be alone now."

"I would like to thank you here."

After saying that, Zhang Laodao actually bowed and saluted with clasped fists.

"As expected, I'm here to say thank you!"

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

Li Rui had already informed him of this matter.

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

If you can be saluted by a respected hermit master, you will have bragging rights in the future, and you can even persuade him to drink a few more drinks.

Very useful!

Jiang Linxian also unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

The people of An Ningwei saved the disciples of Wenxian Tower, and his superior could have a better relationship with Wenxian Tower.

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

But in fact, contrary to what the world sees, the owner of Wenxian Tower is a master of immortality. He is very popular among the nobles in the capital, and even the emperor personally consults with him.

The value of this sentiment is not low.

Zhang Laodao straightened up and said, "Master Ning, this time I came to Anning Guard, I actually have an unkind invitation."

Ning Zhongtian glanced at Jiang Linxian.

Suddenly I knew something.

He patted his chest and said, "It doesn't matter what the Taoist said. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to help the Taoist."

With Jiang Linxian's nod, of course he had nothing to worry about, he just needed to express his attitude.

Zhang Laodao: "I wonder if Master Ning has an official named Li in Benhu Camp?"

Ning Zhongtian was stunned:

"The Taoist priest said he was the patrolman of Benhu camp, Li Rui?"

Zhang Laodao nodded: "Probably, I came here to seek immortality and planned to stay in Anning Mansion for a few days, but my two disciples were frightened and wanted to temporarily stay 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 the kindness of saving their lives."

Ning Zhongtian's expression turned strange. What kind of request was this?

Not only him, but even Jiang Linxian didn't expect that Zhang Laodao's request was actually this.

And Jiang Linxian vaguely felt that this old man made this plate of dumplings just for this dish of vinegar.

Yes, I am the dumpling that comes with it.

Ning Zhongtian couldn't figure out the situation for a while, then turned to look at Jiang Linxian.

The next moment.

Jiang Linxian coughed lightly and said, "Master Ning, it's just a matter of having more pairs of chopsticks. I remember that there are a lot of vacant rooms in Li Rui's house, so you can feel free to go there and don't dislike it."

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

Zhang Laodao smiled and nodded:

"As it should be."

Li Zhai.

stable.

The stables in Li's house have always been just a decoration.

Although Li Rui was promoted to a patrol officer and was assigned a horse, the horses belonged to the public and were all under unified supervision at the Horse Prison Hall of Anning Guard.

Wang Zhao habitually kept the stables clean, but he was always without a horse.

This time, the stable finally has an owner.

"Master, this red dragon horse is really extraordinary. It is sweating red."

Wang Zhao almost dropped his saliva 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 he thought that his disciple still had no idea about his marriage, Li Rui secretly shook his head and made a conclusion:

"Focus on solitary life."

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

"Maybe we can train Xiaozhao to be a horse-riding officer?"

Practicing martial arts or not is not necessary, nor is respecting interests and hobbies.

Li Rui has always been an open-minded person.
