Chapter 144: It’s Qin, Not Qin. It’s Hard to Determine the Taoist Heart

Ying Ziyi lived in Lingyun Valley for half a month.

Half a month later, all the elders of the Taoist sect have gathered, and the leader's apprenticeship ceremony is about to begin.

Taoism is simple, so there are not many complicated etiquette.

Outside the bamboo house, from the headmaster down, the elders and true disciples were lined up on both sides.

Xiaoyaozi stood outside the bamboo house. In front of him were a basin of water, a piece of jade and a long sword.

Ying Ziyi knelt down in front of Xiaoyaozi. He saw Xiaoyaozi put his hand into the clear water, raised it slightly, and gently touched Ying Ziyi's forehead with his water-stained hand. A strange luster flashed through him, golden The yellow yin-yang fish swam on Ying Ziyi's forehead, then disappeared again.

Ying Ziyi stood up, Xiaoyaozi looked at him and said: "From now on, you are a disciple of my Taoist sect, with the Taoist name Wangqing."

"Disciple meets Master!"

Xiaoyaozi nodded and continued: "All my Taoist disciples must pass the jade test to determine the quality of jade. There is a sword and a piece of jade here, which were passed down by the ancestors. You concentrate, put your hands first On this sword."

"Yes, Master." Ying Ziyi followed the instructions and placed his hands on the long sword that was neither copper nor iron.

Ying Ziyi waited for a long time and found that there was no response. For a long time, I heard the whispers of the Taoist disciples around me and the strange expressions on the elders' faces.

Xiaoyaozi had no reaction and continued: "Put your hand on the jade stone."

Ying Ziyi followed Xiaoyaozi's instructions and placed his hands on the jade stone as big as a lacquer plate. After waiting for a long time, there was still no response.

This time, the whispers around them became louder, and the faces of the elders were more than just weird. Ying Ziyi noticed that Mu Xuzi had an obvious look of ridicule on his face.

Xiaoyaozi's expression remained unchanged. He spoke slowly and in a calm tone: "From now on, you will study "Chongling Sword Jue" and "Bian Que's Twelve Chapters"."

Ying Ziyi couldn't figure out what was going on, so he could only say: "Disciple, thank you Master!"

The headmaster ceremony dispersed, and most of the disciples in the valley left. On the scene, only Wangsi, Wangqiao and Wangle were left.

"Don't be discouraged, junior brother." Wangsi walked up, patted Ying Ziyi on the shoulder, and comforted him.

How is this going? Ying Ziyi looked at the gentle smile on his face, still confused in his heart.

"Little junior brother, don't worry. Senior sister will protect you from now on." With Loli's height and Yu Jie's figure, she accidentally hugged Ying Ziyi, who was half taller than her, and said boldly, quite proudly. She looks like a big sister.

How is this going? Ying Ziyi felt the turbulence of his sister Wangqiao, and was still confused in his heart.

Finally, there is Wangle, this kaleidoscope, which is said to be omniscient among hundreds of schools of thought. He walked forward and wanted to do something to Ying Ziyi, but was stopped by Ying Ziyi.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

"Don't you know? Junior brother?" Wang Le and the other three all looked surprised.

"I don't know!" Classmate Ying Ziyi shook his head like a novice.

"The jade stone and the jade sword were both left by Guan Yinzi. Guan Sheng resigned from his post at that time and followed the Supreme Emperor out of Hangu to the west to serve as a guard and practice the Tao. Guan Sheng has been practicing for many years, and these two things are with him. It is deeply spiritual and can determine the level of a person's qualifications. A person's qualifications in swordsmanship or Taoism can be reflected in these two items. In your situation, there is only one possibility, and that is that your qualifications are low. It has crossed the boundary of low-grade, so these two spiritual creatures did not react."

As Wangle spoke eloquently, Ying Ziyi finally understood what was going on.

"So that's it!" Ying Ziyi smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"Is this the legendary feeling that silence is greater than thought?" Wang Le murmured.

"What did you say?" Wangqiao punched Wangle hard, "Junior brother Wangqing, this is called open-mindedness."

"I believe that as long as I work hard, one day I will achieve my goal."

Ying Ziyi clenched his fists, and his whole body was filled with the aura of a decent loser, commonly known as being stupid.

"...!"

...

The night was as cold as water. One month later, Ying Ziyi sat alone in front of the stream and sighed.

"Nima, it's so tiring to be a decent person."

Ying Ziyi practiced his sword for a day, and his body was covered with sweat. Now he was washing himself by the stream.

It is very difficult for a low player to pretend to be a master. Anyone with a little vision can see it. And if a master wants to pretend to be a master, he must be even more careful. Although he was already extremely proficient in stabbing, he still had to pretend to be very unfamiliar. There are experts all around you, and if you show any flaws, you will be seen through.

"Damn it, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have lowered the level and qualifications so low when creating new characters." Ying Ziyi secretly regretted it in his heart.

"Junior Brother Wangqing!"

Ying Ziyi turned around, and saw a hazy figure walking slowly under the moonlight, wearing a light gauze dress and a Taoist robe. As he got closer, Ying Ziyi felt a fragrance as light as orchid emanating from the woman's body.

This is not the scent of rouge, but the scent of a woman.

Ying Ziyi smiled and said, "Senior Sister Wangyou, you also come to the river to cool off."

Wangyou nodded, looked at the gurgling stream, and said, "Junior Brother Wangqing, you are a ruthless and perseverant person."

"Thank you for the compliment, senior sister."

“But in this world, some things cannot be achieved through hard work alone.”

Wangyou looked into the distance. Waves on the stream were slowly surging. The moon in the water was broken and shimmering with sparkling luster.

Getting closer, Ying Ziyi could see that Wangyou's hair on her temples was a little messy because it was covered in sweat. It was obvious that she had just finished sword practice.

"No, I firmly believe that Foolish Old Man can move mountains. As long as you keep working hard, one day you can even dig through the huge rocks." Ying Ziyi said.

"Then I wish you success." Wangyou smiled heartily, his beautiful smile shining with a charming luster. After that, she stood up and left here.

"This woman is really weird." Ying Ziyi didn't understand, so he continued to hold some water to wash away the sweat on his body.

"Bik Dong! The program 'Villain's Harem' is started. The target character is Yi Wangyou. The current favorability is 10. The target character has a full favorability of 1000."

At this time, the sound of the system suddenly sounded in Ying Ziyi's ears.

"What the hell is this? I don't seem to have done anything?" Ying Ziyi secretly wondered.

"Bidong! The so-called villains are those who attack unintentionally."

"...!"

...

The same night, in the vast mountains.

Xiaoyaozi was holding the leader's token, Xue Ji, and there was another person standing a few feet in front of him.

"You are indeed still alive, the giant of the Mo family."

Yan Dan held black eyebrows in his hand and wore a black robe and blue clothes. He looked at Xiaoyaozi and said, "Brother Xiaoyao, long time no see."

"The document of Qin Guohai's arrest of the giant has not been withdrawn yet. The giant is willing to take extraordinary risks to come to Guanzhong. I wonder why?"

"For the great cause of opposing Qin."

What Yan Dan said was very straightforward, so straightforward that it seemed to be a matter of course.

"You should know that neither the Taoist Heavenly Sect nor our Human Sect has ever participated in the grudges between princes." There was a hint of rejection in Xiaoyaozi's tone.

"I know." Yan Dan nodded, "Ying Zheng has unified the world, but the fighting will not stop. Taoism has always advocated rule by inaction. When the war first subsided, the people should be nourished and settled. But after Ying Zheng unified the world, But they are levying labor and building new projects on a large scale. Brother Xiangbi Xiaoyao has also heard about it. In the new capital of Guanzhong alone, no less than 100,000 people have been levied at this moment. "

Yan Dan recounted, "No one knows what Ying Zheng's world is like? I'm afraid even he himself doesn't know. But with the way he is now, sooner or later, everyone in the world will be buried with him because of his terrible ambition. .Brother Xiaoyao, the human sect is not as good as the heavenly sect, can you really watch this happen?"

Xiaoyaozi did not speak, but Yan Dan said patiently: "Ying Zheng may be the most powerful monarch in history. I do not deny this. But it is precisely because of this that it is even more terrifying. His methods, his Strategy, the power he has, can turn those ethereal "grand plans" into reality. Because he has a common problem shared by all great emperors, that is, he loves great achievements. However, what kind of cost does it take to realize his "grand plans" What price will it cost? How many people will be buried with it?"

"Juzi, I understand everything you said. But I, the Taoist, do not care about worldly affairs, and this remains unchanged." Xiaoyaozi spoke firmly, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Brother Xiaoyao!"

Following Yan Dan's shout, Xiaoyaozi stopped.

"Ying Zheng issued a ban on troops, intending to eliminate the hidden anti-Qin forces in the rivers and lakes, and the Mohist family was the first to bear the brunt. Although the rivers and lakes are currently peaceful, there are turbulent undercurrents. Under this storm, no one can survive the coming tide. Zhong Zhi stays out of the matter. Sooner or later, every sect in the world, the nobles of every country, and even everyone will be divided into two camps. Qin or not Qin. Even the Taoists may not be able to stay out of the matter."

As Yan Dan finished speaking, Xiaoyaozi continued to move forward, without stopping for a moment, and quickly disappeared into the dark forest.

Yan Dan shook his head, knowing that Xiaoyaozi was already wavering. To fight against Ying Zheng, all forces must be assembled to form an anti-Qin alliance. Taoist participation is indispensable.

Yan Dan believes that Xiaoyaozi will agree sooner or later.

...

In the bamboo house.

Xiaoyaozi sat cross-legged on the futon. In front of him, kneeling were a dozen disciples of the Taoist sect, including Ying Ziyi.

"There is no peace around the sect right now. I have some things that I need you to complete."

"I sincerely comply with Master Jun's decree."

"Wangsi!"

"The disciple is here."

"A group of bandits has appeared near the sect recently, numbering about three hundred people. You go there with a hundred disciples, treat them with courtesy, and be sure to let them leave."

They all brought hundreds of disciples there, but how could they treat each other with courtesy? Ying Ziyi complained in his heart. After these days of inquiring, Ying Ziyi knew their combat power very well. A hundred ordinary Taoist disciples, even the empire's ordinary centurions, are probably no match for them, let alone some bandits?

"Disciple, obey."

"Wangle!"

"The disciple is here."

"There is a shortage of manpower in several villages at the foot of the mountain. You take five hundred handyman disciples and go down the mountain to help them tide over the difficulties."

"Disciple, obey!" Ying Ziyi saw Wangle's expressionless face. Different from his usual playful and uninhibited style, Wangle's face is serious now, very serious.

"Disciple, obey."

"Forget cleverness, forget worries!"

"The disciple is here." The two women said at the same time, their voices crisp and clear.

"There is a shortage of medicinal herbs in the sect recently. You lead three hundred disciples to go up the mountain to collect them."

"Disciple, obey!"

...

Xiaoyaozi gave instructions one by one, down to the smallest details. Ying Ziyi saw that the number of sect tasks he could take on were decreasing one by one. Until finally, there was only one piece left.

Xiaoyaozi's eyes finally fell on Ying Ziyi.

"Forget about love!"

"The disciple is here!"

"The elders of the sect want to refine an elixir, but there is only one missing ingredient, leopard blood. This time, it's up to you!"

"disciple......!"

Before Ying Ziyi finished speaking, he heard Wangyou say in front of him: "Master, that black panther is extremely ferocious. After all, Junior Brother Wangqing has just started training and is not familiar with the terrain, so he is a little unsafe."

"Yes! Uncle Master." At this time, the eldest sister Tou Wangqiao also said: "Why don't we let Junior Brother Wangqing go up the mountain with us, so that we can have someone to take care of us along the way."

Xiaoyaozi nodded, "That's fine. Let's do it this way!"

Everyone retreated, and as soon as Ying Ziyi walked down the steps, Wangle hugged his shoulders, "You can do it! Wangyou and Wangqiao, two great beauties from the Renzong, take care of you like this."

Ying Ziyi was also used to Wang Le. He smiled slightly and left the leader's residence with him.

"By the way, what is a black panther?" Along the way, Ying Ziyi asked Wang Le for information.

"Black Panther! It's a common wild beast here. Its blood can be used as medicine. Recently, Master Cang Yuezi has been refining the Unnamed Pill and is in urgent need of this medicine."

"Unnamed Pill?" Ying Ziyi asked doubtfully.

"That's right! The refining process of the Wuming Dan is similar to that of the Yin Yang family's Ghost Fighting Pill. However, the medicinal properties are mild and the functions are very different. The Ghost Fighting Pill harms people, but the Nameless Pill saves people. It can help the process of cultivating Taoism. Disciples with unstable centrality can stabilize their emotions and help their practice."

Wangle, who is worthy of being called the Kaleidoscope, knows all of this very well.

"Don't worry! Master Cang Yuezi wants to refine about 30 parts of the Nameless Pill. You can just collect 100 parts of leopard blood. If you don't kill him, you only need five panthers; if you kill him, you only need two. With the help of Wangyou and Wangqiao, your task can be easily completed."

"Thank you for telling me, senior brother." Ying Ziyi said, cupping his fists.

"Why are you so polite to me?" Wangle smiled and pulled Ying Ziyi's shoulders, looking very familiar.

...

After the disciples left, Xiaoyaozi sat cross-legged on the futon and took out a pill from his sleeve, which was exactly the nameless pill Wangle mentioned. Xiaoyaozi took one and calmed down his mood which had been fluctuating recently. Renzong, do you want to join the anti-Qin alliance? This decision may have doomed the life or death of thousands of disciples.
