Chapter 235 Presbyterian
After Lin Xiao returned to the Lingxu Palace, he immediately went to the main altar of Lingxu Palace and wanted to visit Wan Jiantao.
However, he was told by the rotating monks of the general forum that Wan Jiantao is still in the retreat stage and has not been out of the customs for several years.
Lin Xiao had to return the same way when he heard the words. However, in the process of communicating with those rotating monks, Lin Xiao noticed that in addition to the superficial respect, the Taoist monks seemed to look a little abnormal when talking to him. Especially after they learned about Lin Xiao's real identity, the monks' faces appeared. He looked very surprised. Although they tried their best to hide it, Lin Xiao could see it clearly.
Lin Xiao was a little unclear about the abnormal behavior of those rotating monks. As he walked along the road and thought, just as he was about to walk to the archway of Zongtan Mountain, a blue light suddenly flew straight towards Lin Xiao.
The escape light stopped in front of Lin Xiao, and the escape light dispersed. A driver had a blue flying sword, and the figure of a fat young man with a 'round' body appeared. Seeing Lin Xiao, the man was overjoyed and hurriedly shouted, "Brother Lin, you are finally back!"
Lin Xiao was also happy to see the man. He patted the man on the shoulder with a smile, and then smiled, "I haven't seen you for many years, Changsheng, you have finally grown up, but you are still so fat, but you have a little demeanor of your happy brother, haha!"
Changsheng scratched the back of his head with embarrassment and muttered, "Originally, I also wanted to lose weight after practicing, but Qingying said that she still liked my original appearance, so I didn't dare to lose weight..."
Lin Xiao laughed more happily when he heard the words, "Haha! Changsheng, you are also an adult. When are you going to do something good with Qingying? I'll also ask you for a glass of wedding wine by the way.
Changsheng quickly waved his hand and said, "It's still early. My master said that if you don't reach the Dan stage, you can't get married for one day. You know, before the Dan, we male practitioners can't release Yuanyang lightly."
Lin Xiao looked up and down at Changsheng, and then laughed, "Good boy, that's good. Now it's the peak of the Taoist fetus. It seems that you have been working hard over the years."
Changsheng smiled when he heard the words, "That's right, but I dare not slack off for a day. Thanks to my master's attention to me, and according to my physical attributes, I specially asked my master to go to Qingmen to ask for the highest elixir of Qingmen to cultivate for me. If I didn't work harder, wouldn't I have lived up to the expectations of my master and master?
The master mentioned by Lin Xiao is naturally Xie Qinghou, and the master is Wan Jiantao.
Wan Jiantao is still closed. Lin Xiao wanted to visit Xie Qinghou, so he asked, "Changsheng, is your master still in Qingye Valley?"
Changsheng shook his head repeatedly when he heard the words, and then said to Lin Xiao, "Brother Lin, you haven't come back for a long time. I don't know that a big event has happened in our Lingxu Palace!"
"What's the big deal?" Lin Xiao was moved when he heard the words and hurriedly asked.
Changsheng then reopened the Purple Gate and told Lin Xiao about Xie Qinghou's temporary affairs in charge of the new Taoist temple in Zimen.
Lin Xiao was also very surprised after hearing this. When Wan Jiantao said that he would be the descendant of Zimen, Lin Xiao just thought that Wan Jiantao's words were just a joke.
However, Lin Xiao did not expect Wan Jiantao to say a word. He really reopened the Zimen Taoist temple, and made an exception to list himself as the chief true disciple of Zimen in public!
What an honor!
However, Mu Xiu and Lin Feng will destroy it. Did Wan Jiantao praise himself or hurt himself?
Lin Xiao thought about it and couldn't help but be a little distracted.
The long student suddenly said, "Brother Lin, you are also a true disciple of Zimen now. This time, I came to welcome you back to Zimen Taoist Farm by the order of my master."
Lin Xiao came to his senses. He asked Changsheng with a smile, "How did your master know that I was back?"
Changsheng smiled and pointed to the rotating monks of the general altar in the distance, and then smiled and said, "As soon as you entered the Lingxu Palace, those rotating disciples spread the news in various ways as soon as possible. I'm afraid that the whole Lingxu Palace has known that you are back."
Before Changsheng's words fell, Lin Xiao really noticed that there seemed to be many more monks around him. After receiving the news of Lin Xiao's appearance, these people immediately rushed over, either far or near a large number of Lin Xiao, commenting on him and talking about him.
Lin Xiaoke was not used to being watched as a monkey play, so he greeted Changsheng to lead the way. The two set up a light, left the main altar of the Lingxu Palace one after and flew towards Ziyingfeng.
On the way, Changsheng suddenly reminded Lin Xiao, "Brother Lin, my master asked me to come to welcome you. By the way, let me tell you that you will go back to Zimen later to see several elders. In addition to my master and several other elders, some other elders and true disciples seem to hug you in private. There are great ideas. You have to be careful when you go back.
Since Lin Xiao learned that Wan Jiantao announced in public that he was the chief true disciple of Zimen, he had already thought that he would inevitably become the target of public criticism, and it was inevitable to attract jealousy.
The reason why he was distracted just now was not because he was intoxicated with the glory that Wan Jiantao gave him the right name, but because he couldn't figure out for a moment. Why did Wan Jiantao push himself to such a storm?
Is it possible that Wan Jiantao's move also has the intention of testing himself?
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao said to Changsheng, "I know about this. Don't worry, I will pay attention to it."
At the same time, in Ziyingfeng, Zimen Taoist temple.
In a vast hall called the 'Yingling Hall', the plaques of the ancestors of the Purple Gate are worshipped.
These cards are neatly placed on the incense table and accepted by the incense of later disciples.
Among these cards, only one name is missing, that is, Lu Zongwu, the first seat of the previous Purple Gate.
At this time, ten late Jindan monks sat on a Taishi chair and were arguing about something.
These ten people are all the elders of Zimen. Among these elders, Xie Qinghou'an sat on the top teacher's chair, dressed in a dark green Taoist robe, and listened coldly as the other elders quarreling, but he did not say a word.
I only heard a big man sitting next say coldly, "I still say that the inheritance of Zimen - 'Ziyun Tower' must not be entrusted to a low-level monk who doesn't even have a golden elixir. When Lin Xiao comes back, we must let him hand over the Ziyun Tower!"
"Yan Hai is right!" A female Xiu, who has a pair of blue pupils and a charming figure and wears a blue palace costume, smiled and said, "Since our Purple Gate has reopened, we must take back the things inherited from the Purple Gate and put them on the temple, so as to calm the hearts of those disciples outside!"
A white-haired and short old man also nodded and said, "Qi Jing's words are reasonable! Take a look at the rest of the four gates of Qing, Jin, Chi and Yun. Which sect does not have its own inheritance formula as a thing of Zhenzong? That's called the background!"
He paused and said, "Our purple door has reopened, and its power is a little weaker than others. If there is no inheritance as the heritage of the Zhenzong, I'm afraid that people's minds will change!"
At this time, a middle-aged scribe in a golden gown suddenly snorted coldly, "Old Shuimu, are you worried? Who doesn't know that the rules of the Purple Gate are transmitted in a single vein? Historically, only the next first or first candidate can take charge of the sect's inheritance magic weapon 'Ziyun Tower'. When have you seen that every disciple of Zimen can practice 'Zifu Yuanzong'?
"You!" Shuimu was hit back by the middle-aged scribe, and suddenly had a hot temper. At this time, Qi Jing suddenly said, "Oh, Hao Feng, Taoist friends, we naturally know the rules of Zimen, but the rules are set by people. Now that the Purple Gate reopens, it is necessary to vigorously develop disciples. When the Purple Gate is Guangda, the rules inherited are also It's time to change."
After she said, she glanced at the people present, "Guys, when the Purple Gate reopened and recruited elders and disciples, didn't the previous rules of accepting apprentices have also changed? If we still follow the strict rules of receiving apprentices in the past, can there be more than 200 disciples in Zimen now?
While everyone was talking endlessly, Xie Qinghou suddenly raised his hand and motioned everyone to pause. Then he said coldly, "Taixu Zhenren had a decree for a long time. The reason for reopening the purple gate is only to restore the inheritance of the five gates of our spiritual ruins palace and carry forward the prestige of our spiritual ruins palace. As for the inheritance rule of Zimen, it is an iron law that lasts for thousands of years. Other rules can be modified, and no one can change this rule.
Hearing that it was the decree of Taixu real people, Qi Jing and others did not dare to modify the idea of inheritance. Everyone had nothing to say for a moment and immediately became silent.
After a while, Qi Jing turned her eyes and smiled and said, "Okay, since Taixu said that we can't modify the inheritance rules, let's continue this rule. However, Taixu Zhenren didn't say that he would make Lin Xiaoli the next first seat in Zimen, did he?
Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, and then Yan Hai answered loudly and said, "That's right, Taixu Zhenren hasn't said anything about letting Lin Xiao take charge of our Purple Gate. Why did Lin Xiao hold the 'Ziyun Tower'? He must hand over the 'Purple Cloud Tower'!"
"If Lin Xiao hands over the Purple Cloud Tower, who will be in charge of this inheritance?" Xie Qinghou suddenly asked such a sentence.
The crowd present was stunned for a moment, and Yan Hai then said loudly, "Why don't we take turns to take care of the elders here until the next first seat of Zimen comes out?"
Hao Feng shook his head and said, "How can such a heavy weapon be used to take turns to keep the things inherited from the sect? I don't agree with this."
After Hao Feng finished speaking, several other elders nodded in agreement with him. As for Shuimu, Qi Jing and other people, they helped Yan Hai and refuted Hao Feng one after another.
Just as everyone began to make trouble again, Xie Qinghou coughed and said slowly, "I have an idea. Since Ziyun Tower is an inheritance of Zimen, it must be the future head of Zimen to keep it. Who can be the first seat of my Zimen? Naturally, there are capable people! We are all monks in the late Jindan period. Whoever has a higher level of cultivation will take care of the Ziyun Tower!"
"No!" An elder Jindan suddenly shouted, "Who doesn't know that Elder Xie has always been talented? You have broken into such a great reputation in Donglu at a young age. After entering the later period of Jindan, your cultivation has soared. Among us, you are the highest cultivation. I'm afraid that you put forward such an opinion for your own sake and want to Take the Purple Cloud Tower for yourself, right?
When everyone heard the words, they also looked at Xie Qinghou to see what he planned.
