Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 778 Sima Shi

Fang Dasheng smiled and waved his hands: "Xuantang City is a small place, but the situation is not simple. There is a saying, the temple is small and the wind is strong, and the water is shallow. It is more appropriate to describe the complicated situation here. .”

"The younger generation is new here and doesn't know the personnel affairs. I hope the seniors can give me more advice in the future."

"It's not something that can be explained clearly in a few words. If you really want to talk about it, you won't be able to understand it even for a few days and nights. From now on, you will walk around and communicate with Mengyuan more, and it will become clear over time. Mengyuan, you are brothers, Tangning and I If you have old friends, you, senior brother, should help out more."

"Yes." Xu Mengyuan stood behind him and replied: "Brother Tang, if you encounter difficulties in the future, just come to me."

"Thank you brother Xu."

"By the way, I heard that the identities of your disciples have not yet been determined, have they?"

"Yes, this junior has already submitted a dossier report, identity token and body test stone three years ago, but the new identity token has not been issued so far, so he cannot be regarded as an official disciple of Taixuanzong."

"It's not that fast. Not to mention how long the delays are. The group of disciples handling affairs at the mountain gate are all masters. The replacement of identities is a troublesome thing. It needs to be signed by several departments. Chapter, it's normal to stay here for a few years." Fang Dasheng looked at Tangning with a half-smile, "This time you were recruited by the sect, it must be Master Nangong's contribution behind it!"

"Don't dare to hide it from senior, this junior has actually never met senior Nangong, but from what Senior Bai Jintang said, it was Senior Nangong who resolved this matter for this junior."

Fang Dasheng smiled and said: "If it weren't for her old man, no one else would have such skills."

"The junior has something to ask, I hope the senior can agree."

"But it doesn't matter."

"In the early years, the younger generation had a disciple who was recruited by the younger generation when he was in Qianyizong. Although she served in the Allied Army before, she was not recruited by Qingzhou Xuanmen. Now she is waiting for the younger generation in Qianyuan City. The younger generation wants to take a leave of absence. Bring her to this city for easy care."

"Since that's the case, Meng Yuan, why don't you go with Tangning! Pick up his apprentice and arrange a job below."

"Yes." Xu Mengyuan replied.

"Thank you, senior." Tangning was overjoyed, "Young man from Qianyuan City will be happy to go, how dare you bother Brother Xu?"

"Let's go together! It just so happens that you are not familiar with the various affairs of the headquarters, so you can communicate more along the way."

The two chatted for a while, Tangning got up to leave and left. Xu Mengyuan sent him out of the cave and said, "Brother Tang, how about we leave tomorrow? I'll wait for you here."

"Everything is according to Brother Xu's order."

"Then I won't be far away."

"Brother Xu, let me take my leave," Tangning said before leaving in a trance.

He knew very well in his heart that the reason why Fang Dasheng was so polite and opened the door of convenience was actually for Nangong Muxue's relationship.

But he didn't know that Nangong Muxue didn't pay much attention to him, or in other words, he overestimated his weight with Nangong Muxue.

It is basically impossible to get convenience by clinging to Nangong Muxue by yourself.

Of course, Fang Dasheng may have his considerations and plans.

Tangning didn't care what he was thinking. Since Fang Dasheng had such a plan, he was naturally happy to use the tiger's skin as a banner. Anyway, this matter would be of great benefit to him.

Not long after walking, I returned to the room under the short mountain peak, and just sat down cross-legged when I heard footsteps outside, followed by a knock on the door.

Tang Ning stood up and opened the door. There were two men standing outside. They were Zhang Ziqing and Wu Tongming.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, I'm sorry for bothering you." Zhang Ziqing said with a smile on his face.

"Two friends, please." Tangning had expected that the two of them would come to investigate the situation, so she was not surprised.

The three entered the inner room and sat facing each other.

"I don't know where did the disciple of Taixuanzong surnamed Xu invite fellow Taoists? Why?" Wu Tongming asked straight to the point.

"Oh, that's right. This person's name is Xu Mengyuan. His teacher, Senior Fang Dasheng, has some old friends with me. He knew that I came here, so he invited me to meet him."

"Fang Dasheng? Do you know what position you have here?" Zhang Ziqing asked.

"To be honest with you two, I don't know very well. We only chatted about some past events. As for his specific position, I don't want to ask rashly, but I think it should be a high-ranking monk here." Tang Ning half-truth Said.

Zhang Ziqing and Wu Tongming couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this.

Wu Tongming said: "I don't know if this senior Fang mentioned the matter of you and me being employed?"

"I'm afraid our identity token will not come down so quickly, and it should be delayed for a while. As for the specific job arrangement, we haven't said anything."

Zhang Ziqing smiled and said: "Friend Daoist Tang, I didn't expect you to know the high-level people here. If there is anything in the future, you can take care of us."

"Zhang Daoyou was joking. Senior Fang and I are just casual acquaintances. I thought he was a nostalgic person, so he asked me to chat for a while."

"Anyway, since you know the high-level people here, it's better than us being alone. By the way, since we're here, Xu Mengyuan didn't tell us not to go out. How about taking a stroll around the city together tomorrow?"

"I'm going to Qianyuan City tomorrow, and I made an appointment with my apprentice there before. I've just taken a leave of absence with Senior Fang, and I'll be leaving tomorrow at Chen, two fellow Taoists, let's take a stroll! I won't do it." accompanied."

"In that case, that's all."

The three chatted for a while, Zhang Ziqing and Wu Tongming left.

The next day, around Chen's hour, Tangning came out of the room and came to Fang Dasheng's cave to wait. Not long after, a ray of light came out from inside, and Xu Mengyuan's figure appeared: "Brother Tang, you have been waiting for a long time!"

"No, I've only just arrived."

"Let's go!" The two of them jumped up and left the mountain range. After walking for half a day, they came to a shop called Hengyuanwutongge in the nearby city.

"Senior Xu, you're here." As soon as the two stepped into the room, a beautiful woman came up to greet them and saluted.

Xu Mengyuan nodded, and walked straight in. Not long after, a white-faced man came towards him with a smile on his face and said: "Fellow Daoist Xu, a rare visitor! Why did you come to the shop today? What can I tell you?"

Xu Mengyuan said: "I have some things to go to Qianyuan City. I wonder when there will be a merchant ship from your pavilion to Qianyuan City?"

"I'll arrange it right away." The man responded, then turned his head and said to the woman behind him: "Go and check, when is the fastest time for the merchant ship to go to Qianyuan City to leave? Take two boarding numbers."

"Yes." The woman went away in response.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, please go to the backyard to talk." The three of them walked through the main hall, turned around a few long corridors, and came to a courtyard behind.

The three of them sat down as guest and host. The man looked at Tangning and said, "This fellow Taoist looks at the face, how dare I ask you your name?"

Xu Mengyuan said: "Let me introduce, this is Tang Ning, a disciple of our sect newly transferred to our office. He has a relationship with his tutor. This time he has something to go to Qianyuan City, and his tutor asked me to accompany him."

"Brother Tang, this is Fellow Daoist Sima Ang. Everyone in the Sima family in Yuanxian County knows everyone. If we talk about the influence in Yuanxian County, they say it is second, but no one dares to say it is the second." One, this Wutong Pavilion is one of their properties."

Tang Ning said, "The Sima clan is famous, even though Tang lives in a back alley, he has heard of it."

The Sima clan was originally from the humble beginnings, and its great ancestor Sima Zhongxuan, the eagle looked after the wolf's appearance, was kind, forbearing, and strategic.However, she is greedy and despicable, and her conduct is despicable, which is despised by the heroes of the world.

The ancestor of the Shi family in Yongzhou once commented: "It's despicable!"When a man acts like a man, he should be upright and upright, like the sun and the moon shining brightly, and he will never be like Sima Zhongxuan, who wins the world with his charm.

Ruan Sizong, a hero of later generations, passed by Yuanxian County, climbed up to see the city, and sighed with emotion: "There are no heroes in the time, so Shuzi became famous."

"I don't know where fellow Daoist Tang is from?" Sima Ang asked.

"Under the Qinghai Xingang Ren family, this time Qingzhou Xuanmen is making a big move. Fortunately, he was selected and recruited by Taixuanzong, so he was assigned to this city."

"So that's it." Sima Ang nodded, the three of them chatted for a while, then footsteps came from outside the house, two women came in from outside, one of them was holding a tray, and put the spirit food and spirit wine on the desk of the three of them. superior.

Another person handed over two number plates to Xu Mengyuan and said, "Senior Xu, there will be a Fengling boat going to Qianyuan County in our pavilion in the future. Senior, please stay for two days, and the junior will take the senior there."

Xu Mengyuan took the token and nodded, and the two women withdrew.

Sima Ang said: "It's rare for the two fellow Taoists to come here, so I hope you can forgive me for not being well received. I have other important matters, so I'm sorry, please let me know if I have anything to do."

"Fellow Daoist, please help yourself."

Sima Ang strode away.

"Senior Brother Xu, what does this attic have to do with us?" Tangning asked seeing him go away.

This Sima Ang treats each other with good food and drinks, and gives free boat tickets, and the female nuns in the attic also know Xu Mengyuan, obviously the relationship between the two is not ordinary.

Xu Mengyuan smiled slightly: "Junior Brother Tang suspects that the headquarters is involved in this attic, right?"

"I think this Sima Ang is very polite. Do you think he has a lot to do with our office?"

"You underestimate the Sima clan too much. In the one-third-acre land in Yuanxian County, there are not many who dare to challenge them head-on. Let alone us, if the Yuanxian County Office wants to shake hands with them , You have to weigh one or two."
