One person quietly walking, is very boring.
Recalling the four regulations of Mountain Shisan said by Deer sister to me.
Si Yan was imprisoned in the Hall of Celestial Officials, and He You Tian was meditating in the Hall of Six Palaces.
Wu Bing has become the disciple of Second Elder, and stands alone as the most powerful one...
After a night's event, and another half day passed, when I arrived at the mountain gate, it was just past noon, and the sun was blazing at its brightest.
The square, framed shape of the mountain gate, majestic and imposing, brought up a sense of melancholy and familiarity reminiscent of a homesick prodigal returning to his hometown.
The title on the horizontal plaque reads: "Ten Thousand Good Acts Ascend to Jade Clearliness".
Left tablet: Eighty-one Precepts, One thousand two hundred merits, Enter the Cavernous Sky.
Right tablet: Two hundred thirty precepts, Two thousand good acts, ascend to the Hall of Celestial Officials!
This couplet gave me a stronger sense of emotion.
Before seeing these words, I felt shocked, advanced, but now I feel that there is a Dao everywhere.
The large stone at the mountain gate further witnesses the thousands of years of wind and rain changes in the Four Rules Mountain.
The gate is open, and one of the Taoists I recognize is Xiu Ke.
Another Taoist is more unfamiliar, I don't have any impression of him.
They see me at the time, a moment has not reacted.
The next moment, the unfamiliar Taoist shot off from his place like an arrow, charging up the steps to the mountain gate.
Xiu Ke stunned for a few seconds before hurrying over to me, his eyes slightly reddened.
"Little...Little Uncle..."
"You... how did you come back?"
"No, you have to go quickly! Zhu Yao has reported it, you can't come back openly, you have to go down the mountain!"
Xiu Ke is very anxious.
In fact, it's only been a few months since we last saw each other, but the once handsome young man now seems to have a sense of weariness, and even has stubble on his cheeks.
Without answering Xiu Ke's words, I didn't follow his instructions and frowned and said, "You shouldn't be guarding the mountain gate."
"How can this be? I... I..." Xiu Ke's face was full of bitter smiles. His eyes flickered back and forth, and his demeanor became more urgent: "Little Uncle, these matters, we can talk about them later. You should still go down the mountain first! Grand Master has not emerged from seclusion, how can you return?"
"You..."
"Daring Xiu Ke! Do you want to drive away this foreign evil!"
The sound of anger erupted suddenly!
The one who was shouting was the very Taoist who had run away earlier. He was full of anger, and he was accompanied by more than ten others.
Those people, I'm more familiar with.
The successors ceremony itself is not a one-man show, it is a group of disciples who have been trained, to challenge the candidate selected by the True Man, the candidate who successfully defends the relay or the disciple who successfully challenges, can become the true candidate of True Man, the future Four Rules Mountain True Man!
Just because of Sun Zhuo's matter, the successor ceremony was completely disrupted.
Nowadays, I don't know the exact situation.
I pondered for a moment, the group quickly stopped at the front of the mountain gate steps.
Xiu Ke's body trembled slightly, but he did not move an inch. He couldn't help but shout in anger, "He is my Four Rules Mountain little master uncle, why is he considered an outsider!? Zhu Ya, you can't do this!"
The Taoist looked at Xiu Ke coldly and looked at me with a hint of resentment.
In fact, I don't understand why I have offended Zhu Ya. He shouldn't look at me with that kind of expression.
"Xiu Ke, this is why you are standing guard at the gate. Zhu Ya and you have a good relationship, but because of you, he has to stand guard at the gate with you. Now that Luo Xian Shen has appeared, Zhu Ya came to report the message and has gained merit, yet you are clueless. You actually dare to stand in front of Luo Xian Shen as well. What do you intend to do? Are you going to help this outsider and be against the mountain gate?"
"You, want to die?"
The man who opened his mouth again was in his late thirties, wearing deep blue qipao, with many sword accessories on his body.
I finally understood the reason for Zhu Ya's suspicious gaze.
I also understand why Xiu Ke is stationed at the gate of this mountain.
The word "external evil" was particularly piercing.
"I am not an external evil."
"You have no qualifications to change or predetermined my identity. If I have any problems, the First Elder of the Female Immortal would be the first to punish me."
I tried to calm down and did not argue with them.
"You're not an external evil?" another coldly roared. "Our Four Rules Mountain has been thrown into chaos by you! Back then, you fled as if your life depended on it! Today, no matter how eloquent Luo Xian Shen you are, we will seize you and deliver you to the Substitute Immortal for punishment!"
"Substitute Immortal?"
I understood immediately that Er Changlao had temporarily taken over the position of Zhenren.
"I want to see the Big Brother. I will go to Second Elder by myself," I said solemnly and took a step towards entering the mountain gate.
At the same time, I looked at Xiu Ke and said again, "Xiu Ke, you shouldn't be guarding the mountain gate. Come with me and let me take you to the Six Palaces."
Lao Gong had not yet decided how to deal with Wu Ling.
However, based on the matter of killing Tian Shou Tao Ren, the letter from Tang Wu, the leniency from Yun Jin Mountain, and the goodwill towards me from Gu Qiang City, this is enough to make He You Tian less passive.
In the Four Rules Mountain, I can have a place to rest, and the following things will become much easier.
Xiu Ke hesitated for a moment. His eyes darkened and he immediately blocked my way, ready to enter the mountain gate.
His posture was to clear a path for me.
"Daring outsider, violating the Four Rules Mountain, daring Xiu Ke, dared to..."
Without hesitation, I took out the Yu Jin Sima of Mulan and swayed it in front of that person abruptly.
The rest were shocked in dismay, but my speed was fast enough. No one could avoid the reflection of Yu Jin Sima. They all stood there like statues, motionless!
Xiu Ke gave a start, his body trembling slightly before he continued to walk forward.
I followed Xiu Ke's behind.
During this process, I took out the red Taoist robe from the night jar and put it on my body, as well as the mask given to me by He You Tian. I also fixed it on my face.
Xiu Ke's breathing was heavy, and he seemed even more agitated...
"Little master uncle... your strength seems to have changed..."
"I can't describe it. It seems very profound. They haven't even had a chance to react before you have already dominated them all. Although it's related to the Yu Jin Sima, being able to control them instantly before they have even reacted is directly tied to your speed." Xiu Ke's tone carried a hint of reverence.
"You... are you going to explain everything clearly now?" He asked tremblingly again.
"Yes." I nodded.
Xiu Ke's face turned red. He said, "Alright! Even if I may be punished with being kicked out of the mountain gate, I will help Little Master Uncle!"
"I don't like Wu Ling, but many of my fellow brothers and sisters show him great respect, and the elders also treat him with great care. I always feel that Wu Ling is very insincere and false. It seems to me that everything about him is an act, Little Master. Do you know? He knelt outside the Hall of Celestial Officials for three days, begging the Substitute Immortal to release Sister Si Yan, saying that he would guarantee for her. He acted so hypocritically!"
"Of course, Sister Si Yan would not pay him any attention. But he keeps trying to gain her favor, and the elders put pressure on her as well, saying that the bloodline of Bai needs to be continued, and that Si Yan is the best choice for marriage."
"Wu Ling also went to the Six Palaces where Grand Master is in seclusion and knelt there, spending as much time as he could. Luckily, Grand Master did not pay him any attention."
"I really can't stand it anymore..."
Xiu Ke's words fell silent abruptly.
My steps also paused.
We had just reached the top of all the steps, and beyond that was the halls of Taoism in the Four Rules Mountain.
However, at the end of the steps, there was a person standing quietly.
The person was wearing a light purple Taoist robe, looking down at me with an indifferent gaze, which lacked much emotion.
Beside him, there were two others; the person on the left, I faintly remembered, was the Fourth Elder, and the person on the right was none other than Wu Ling!
It seems that the group of disciples who came to block me at the mountain gate earlier, were informed by someone from a higher level.
So they stood in the way!
"Immortal Luo Xian, you should kneel down!" The Second Elder's voice was calm, but carried an air of undeniable authority.
At this time, a large number of disciples rushed from the other side of the Hall, as well as a few red figures among them. They were the other elders, all summoned by the news!
