White Bone Monkey King

Chapter 1712 A new storm is coming

The age difference between Jinan and the new national teacher is too big. Who would have thought that in this battle of wits and courage, the youngest Jinan would temporarily have the upper hand.

In people's general impression, the younger generation is not as mature and stable as the elders, and ordinary people are not as shrewd as the old and cunning people who are well versed in officialdom.

But today, Jinan was completely unafraid of the new national teacher's pressure and verbal provocation, and responded calmly and calmly, which opened the eyes of many people present, as if they had re-recognized the brave and resourceful Jinan.

They suddenly had an illusion that Jinan, who looked only in his early twenties, was the old and cunning old monster who responded calmly and calmly. The new national teacher with a little pale hair and beard became a little boy in front of Jinan.

It really surprised people again and again, and they all had strange looks in their eyes.

At such a young age, he has such extraordinary achievements in cultivation, and a keen mind that knows people's hearts well. Are you sure it's not some ancient monster who has taken over the body and reborn?

The smell of gunpowder was full as soon as they met. At this moment, many masters present had their eyes shining. They had some more guesses in their hearts, but they were not convenient to say them out loud.

Even, many masters present hoped that Jin An would fight with the new national master on the spot to see if the new national master was the mysterious fourth realm strongman who was hiding very deeply, and the mysterious strongman who blatantly suppressed the Wuzang Taoist Temple today.

There were more than one or two people with similar ideas. Anyone could see that these things were too coincidental.

The new national master had just returned to Beijing, and the Wuzang Taoist Temple encountered a strong enemy.

The master of the Wuzang Taoist Temple had just blocked the South Gate to Beijing, which happened to be the only way for the new national master to enter Beijing.

How could there be so many coincidences in this matter?

If there are too many coincidences, it is inevitable.

So many people present had this guess, which was very reasonable.

There were many people who wanted to see the excitement and not mind the big things. They all hoped that the two could fight to the death outside the city gate, so that they could see the methods and magical powers of the fourth-level strongmen in advance as a reference.

These people wanted to see some clues from the facial expression of the new national master Yuan Yiban. Was it true that the new national master was going to suppress the Five Internal Organs Taoist Temple as soon as he returned to Beijing, but they were destined to be disappointed. The new national master looked normal.

He was able to say in front of so many masters with a clear conscience that he was also deceived. This new national master was a watertight style of doing things. How could they, the busybodies, see the clues.

If Jin An had not made too fast progress and broke through to the fourth realm so quickly, and was only half a step away from the late fourth realm, catching people off guard, maybe the Five Internal Organs Taoist Temple would really be in trouble today.

When he was in the Taoist Huangting inner scene, Jin An was still a martial arts immortal in the third realm.

Who would have thought that in just a month, he had already become a martial arts immortal in the fourth realm.

That was the fourth realm, not the first or second realm. This speed of breakthrough was not enough to be described as a demon. If Jin'an did not take action today, the world would be kept in the dark.

Regardless of whether the mysterious strong man who suppressed the Wuzang Taoist Temple this time was the new national teacher who had just returned to Beijing, no one would attack the Wuzang Taoist Temple in the short term.

Everyone needed some time to digest the mental shock brought by Jin'an's cultivation.

The confrontation between Jin'an and the new national teacher Yuan Yiban ended with Jin'an gaining the upper hand temporarily. The two did not fight in public, so that those foreign merchants who led camel teams in and out of the capital would laugh at the Kangding court.

One of them was the Marquis of Shenwu, an imperial envoy appointed by the emperor.

One was the newly appointed national teacher by the emperor.

One was a military officer of the court, and the other was a civil official of the court. Their identities represented whether the country was as solid as a rock.

Jin An did not take action on the spot because the other party did everything perfectly, with a stone fetus clone and using the Feng Shui field of heaven and earth to erase traces. He did not have enough evidence to prove the real murderer.

The new national master knew that he was at a disadvantage, so he was not in a hurry to turn the tables. Perhaps he knew that he was at a disadvantage in the matter of the headless monk, and it was inconvenient to show an aggressive momentum in public, which would damage his reputation as a national master.

The new national master Yuan Yiban acted as if nothing had happened. He put on a kind face and talked a few more words. Finally, he took a carriage to enter the capital on the pretext of going to Beijing to report to the emperor.

This old monster did everything perfectly, established a loyal and righteous persona in front of people, and left no handle.

People came and went outside the city gate. After all, it was a place with many people and eyes. After a few simple greetings with Taoist Zhanmu and Taoist Qingfeng who had just returned to Beijing, Jin An returned to Yujing Jinque together to reminisce the joy of reunion after a long absence.

Jin'an stayed at Yujing Jinque as a guest until the middle of the night and left. He was embarrassed to stay for too long and disturb the reunion of the elders of Yujing Jinque. Before leaving Yujing Jinque, he shamelessly asked for a few boxes of Thousand Layer Osmanthus Cake for Kejian.

When Jin'an took the Yujing Jinque carriage and returned to Wuzang Taoist Temple, it was already past midnight. The statues outside the Wuzang Taoist Temple had been taken back by various temples.

The Wuzang Taoist Temple was still brightly lit at midnight, and everyone had not yet gone to bed.

The old Taoist priests and the others knew that Jin'an was a guest at Yujing Jinque, and they were all waiting for Jin'an to come back.

"The martial arts immortal is back!" The Thousand-Eyed Taoist God statue, who was diligently guarding the gate of the Taoist temple, shouted, and footsteps were heard in the Taoist temple, and a group of people and animals ran out.

The old Taoist priest, Kejian, and Fatty Li all ran out to greet Jin'an.

Next, it was time for everyone to share the Thousand Layer Osmanthus Cake. Even the Thousand-Eyed Taoist statue got a share. A plate of Thousand Layer Osmanthus Cake was placed on top and a stick of incense was inserted, allowing the stone statue to absorb air and exhale smoke.

After eating the midnight snack brought by Jinan, the old Taoist priest picked his teeth with relish: "Little brother, when you have time in the future, go to Yujing Jinque more often. It would be even better if you can bring back midnight snacks every time."

Like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, Fatty Li, who swallowed it without tasting it, also nodded vigorously: "There is an old saying that 'it's easy to get things done if you have someone in the court', and now there is 'it's easy to get things done if you have someone in Yujing Jinque'. It would be great if I could have Yujing Jinque midnight snacks every day. I feel that even a piece of cake made casually by Yujing Jinque is a spiritual tonic, which can boost people's spirits and sweep away the fatigue of patrolling the streets for a day."

Looking at a group of shameless foodies, Jinan said unhappily: "Leave the shame to me, and the delicious food to you. I, the master of the Wuzang Taoist Temple, can't do things like eating and drinking for free every day."

After a few words of joking, everyone got to the point.

"I heard from Thousand Eyes Taoist that you blocked the new imperial master of the Corpse Immortal Heavenly Official. Was it really the new imperial master who suppressed the Five Zang Taoist Temple during the day?" the old Taoist asked seriously.

Next, Jin An recounted the details of how he chased him out of the capital, including his brief verbal confrontation with the new imperial master.

After listening to this, the old Taoist cursed: "This is too obvious. Even a pig can guess that the mysterious mastermind is the new national master. There are not so many coincidences in this world."

"This new national master is vindictive and good at playing tricks! It's easy to dodge an open spear but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. You should be more careful in the future!"

"Little brother, you went to Yujing Jinque as a guest today. Did Taoist Zhanmu and Taoist Qingfeng talk about the ruins of Bulao Mountain? What did they experience when they explored the ruins of Bulao Mountain with the new national master? Did they dig up any natural treasures? Did the new national master show any suspicious behavior?" The old Taoist asked three questions in a row, and the other people and animals also listened attentively and perked up.
