Chapter 290 The bastard and noble minister Sui Xing
After praising Wei Yingdian, Shouba suddenly turned around, glanced at the young captain with the same approval, and said happily: "I have to say that getting along with smart people saves worry and effort. The one below is the former doctor of the Ministry of Rites, after the great Peng family. The same is true for you, Jiang Qi's concubine, and the hunter in the mountains."

Qi Jingzhi laughed dumbly: "If I remember correctly, bastard is not a good word. Does it mean a bastard born of a concubine?"

Shouba chuckled: "The king's concubines also have the dignity of concubines, and the concubines and the lowly sons also have the dignity of the clan and the princes. As long as they are favored, even the first wives and legitimate sons of the princes and princes will not dare to be disrespectful."

"To put it bluntly, Shou has actually been very merciful to you. The biological mother of your ancestor was probably not even as good as a concubine..."

"Among those aristocratic families, the sons of concubines are at most regarded as slaves by their direct descendants, and they are still considered human beings. But if they are the sons of maids, they are really worse than livestock."

"My mother, my maid! It's just four words, but it's the most vicious and heart-wrenching curse!"

After Shouba finished speaking, he saw that the young captain was speechless and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Can't you stand it?"

Qi Jingzhi shook his head: "I just don't think it's worth refuting!"

"Bloodline may be very important, allowing those so-called noble people to live longer and stand on this high platform and overlook the world from birth, but even those who are from a humble background like Qi Jingzhi or are depressed and unambitious like Wei Yingdian, After all, I still have the opportunity to climb up and chat and laugh with the history of longevity."

Hearing this, Shouba smiled slightly: "It is said that prime ministers must start from the state, and strong generals must be sent to the army. However, everything in this world has actually been marked with a price."

"Without blood and family background, one can only use blood and bones as stepping stones. The blood and bones may belong to others, or they may belong to oneself."

"For example, in the newly built high-rise building of Gouchen Yuan, the name of the king's loyal army is not just casually called, and the military positions above the school captain are not something that just any cat or dog can afford. Those who are neither three nor four, who have different ambitions" People can be sent to die, but they can never be entrusted with important tasks, let alone receive the bets and cultivation of all forces."

Seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, Shouba once again showed his melancholy and desolate side to the young captain beside him.

Qi Jingzhi nodded silently.

The facts are indeed as the God of Longevity Palace said. Since he entered the capital, he has gained a lot of benefits overtly and covertly, but most of these benefits are accompanied by tests.

It was especially obvious when he met Lu Gong in the Gaohu altar. If he failed to pass the examination of Huntian Sizheng, I am afraid that Qi Jingzhi would become what Shouba said: "He will only be sent to die, but will not really entrust him with important tasks." "That group of people.

When he got Lu Gong's praise as "the most talented people in the world" as an endorsement, even those who had other ideas, such as the old monk Zhenjue of Fuya Temple and the commander Jin Yaqiu of Wuyun Division, behaved extremely restrained and reserved. Although the methods used still contained hidden murderous intent, they were all exposed and the harmony on the surface was maintained.

From this point of view, Bi Fangniao and the pair of purple foxes have become Qi Jingzhi's lucky stars.

No matter what the internal situation is, in the eyes of those who care about him, Qi Jingzhi respects both the Saint Jiang's ceremony of sealing the town and the "Da Qi Law" to the core.

Although such a young talent who yearns for the Holy Ginger may not be one of our own, at least he is a reliable person and has the value of further cultivation.

Naturally, Shouba didn't know that the young man had already thought very clearly, so he still said to himself: "In addition to being Jiang Qi Yuanzhi, a bastard and a scoundrel, you now also have a Taoist chess piece on your head, a confidant of Da Sima, a talented person in the world, etc. title……"

"If you look closely, these titles may not be of great help to you. On the contrary, they will be a lot of resistance. At least they are mixed, and the blessings and blessings are unpredictable. For people like you, there must be many people who want to advance in advance. Once it is eradicated, there will be many people who are willing to form a good relationship and apply fertilizer, water and so on."

"Haha, you must not grow crooked, otherwise it will be a troublesome thing when you uproot it in the future..."

Dean Shi of Gouchen paused briefly, and pointed his finger at Wei Yingdian, who was already at the top, and pointed at Bannu, who was having fun in the audience: "Qi Jingzhi, be kind to your mount, its Zouwu Banner is just there." It’s your true life-saver.”

"If it is not a divine creature that can choose its master and cannot be taken by force, and Bannu, who is recognized by Zuowu Banner, cannot succumb to the power of evil, otherwise I am afraid that even the Great Sima will not be able to save your life!"

Qi Jingzhi was slightly startled when he heard this. He remembered that the master and the apprentice almost forgot to take Bannu with them when they went down the mountain, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

He nodded silently, and in his heart he quite agreed with the theory of choosing the owner of the Zougo Banner. After all, he had seen it with his own eyes, but Bannu would not succumb to lustful power... Maybe he didn't even need lustful power, he just needed to be bribed?

"just so so!"

At this moment, the young master Linshan finally spotted Qi Jingzhi and ran over from the hall happily.

The little guy climbed up the boy's trouser legs very skillfully, and finally found a comfortable position in his arms. He opened the Tiger King Jade Box with familiarity, and began to carefully take stock of the treasures inside, a pair of watery spirits. Ling's big eyes blinked and blinked.

When he discovered the glass bottle containing the essence of orpiment and the sudden increase in gold and silver jewelry, the little guy immediately became happy, and his big eyes were even brighter.

Seeing this, not only Qi Jingzhi, but also the smile on Shouba's face immediately became more sincere: "Shou almost forgot that after receiving the title of Banpan, it will also be your amulet."

The God of the Longevity Palace thought for a while, and then took the initiative to mention the regulations of the Longevity Palace: "When King Huan was alive, the Longevity Palace did have five beasts, and they were the most orthodox Five Directions and Five Spirits of Shengjiang. The five beasts of the Ji Clan’s Heavenly Officials are very similar.”

"According to the records of "Li Wei Ji Ming Zheng", the ancients used five spirits to match the five directions. The dragon is wood; the phoenix is ​​fire; the lin is earth; the white tiger is gold; and the turtle is water."

"Among them, the Canglong of the wood element in the east and the White Tiger of the gold element in the west belong to both Jiang Ji clans, while the Red Phoenix and Suzaku of the fire element of the south, the divine turtle and Xuanwu of the water element of the north, the Qilin and the Big Horn Xuanyuan of the earth element of the center, They are all very different.”

Qi Jingzhi suddenly nodded. No wonder Kunze Shui Bo Qingji opened his mouth and said something like red phoenix marrow and black turtle essence. It turned out to be ancient ginger.

Speaking of the blue dragon and the white tiger... various inheritances really have a preference for the dragon and tiger forms.

The young man looked at the little guy in his arms and said with a little worry: "Although Banpan is a unicorn, it doesn't seem to be an earth element. Will it be hindered by staying in a central earth element and Wuji palace like Shougong?"

This worry just came to his mind.

"Qingyu Secret Scroll" contains descriptions such as dragons and tigers devouring each other and fighting in the Wuji Palace. If Huanwang Terrace is regarded as the monk's spiritual platform, then Shougong Palace happens to be Wuji who occupies the Kun position in the center of the spiritual platform. The palace of Ji Tu Xing should be guarded by Dajiao Xuanyuan or Tu Qilin.

Shouba had gradually accepted the young man's intelligence and agility, and was not surprised when he heard this. He just smiled and said: "Prajna is not earthly, what should it be?"

Qi Jingzhi did not hesitate, and immediately explained one by one the "Three Scenery Altar of Shangqing Big Cave" and "Wuji Cliff Sword Attendant Xuan Zhen" in Xiaosong Mountain.

"In ancient chronology, there is a saying that 'Xuanzhen's Yin Jing and Sui Xing dispersed and became Lin', and Panpan was born in the year of 'Sui in Xuanzhen', and he was born in response to Sui Xing, which is Jupiter. Then It should be a wooden unicorn, it should be blue all over, and it should be named Shouhu."

"But the little guy is completely white. He looks more like a golden unicorn or a unicorn. It's really puzzling!"

Only Qi Jingzhi and Lao Mandrill had known about these things before, not even Lishan Guangye.

That is to say, it was only after Shouba expressed his sincere love for Ban Bian and became the little guy's de facto master that Qi Jingzhi confessed to him frankly.

"Wujiya?"

As he listened, the expression of the God of Longevity Palace gradually became serious: "That is the line at the bottom of the Taoist Palace of Creation in Xiaogu Mountain. It is called Lingshan. There is a Yanqi Temple on the Wuji Cliff in the mountain. It has always been used to fly pills. Swordsmanship rules the world.”

"The jumping pill and flying sword technique? It sounds a bit like the male and female double sword pills from the lineage of Jiutian Rennu and Baiyundong Lord..." Qi Jingzhi's heart moved.To this day, he no longer believes in unprovoked coincidences.

As soon as this thought occurred, Qi Jingzhi's eyes fell on the two horns on Ban Ban's head.

At the beginning, Lao Mandrill made it clear that the one with one horn is a male unicorn, and the one without horns is a female unicorn. However, the little guy couldn't tell the difference between male and female, and he even had two horns on his head!

With these two thoughts in mind, Qi Jingzhi immediately opened his heart orifices and lit his heart candle, using "The Secret Technique of Qiu Chu Cheng Yun", "Lu Lu's Technique of Adjusting Yang", "Que Gu Shi Qi Pian" and other techniques to explore and manipulate the effects of spiritual energy. All the fadus mobilized, blessing their own mental states, and the eyes outside turned bright red.

After sitting firmly on the spiritual platform, the next step is to overcome the catastrophe and manifest the divine form!

At the same time, Qi Jingzhi ignored the protests and struggles, stretched out his hands to hold the two horns, and touched them carefully several times, back and forth, and finally found one at the root of each horn. A ball of golden air that is contained but not revealed, elicited but not released.

The young captain's expression immediately turned cold: "What is this? Like the Mirror-armored Centipede clan, which uses spiritual wood to cultivate real gold?"

"Senior Lao Mandrill shouldn't be able to do such a thing, but the Baiyundong Lord's lineage may not be possible, but no matter how you think about it, Lingshan Wujiya's suspicion is even greater!"

Seeing that Qi Jingzhi's expression was different, Shouba also became a little uneasy.

He immediately reached out and picked up the unhappy little guy who was flexing his teeth and claws, and then did what Qi Jingzhi had just done again.

Ban Ban finally stopped thrashing and looked at this and that, tears quickly filling his big eyes.

Shouba frowned, and his two large ears of cattail leaf fan began to flap back and forth subconsciously: "This is a bit troublesome..."

"Would this continue to endanger the lives of ordinary people?" This was the first thing Qi Jingzhi thought of.

Shouba raised his eyes and glanced at the young man, then threw the banban on his big ears, which immediately turned the little guy's sadness into joy for having a toy.

In just a few days, the God of Longevity has obviously found a perfect way to coax the child.

He ignored the young man's shocked and envious eyes, shook his head and said: "If you really want to kill the little guy, you won't plant it in the horns of your flesh. It's better to plant it in the lungs. After all, lungs are gold, so that's the best way to survive." It is a ruthless method that truly depletes the lake for fishing and burns the fields for cultivation.”

"From Shou's point of view, this is more like Yan Qiguan selecting and training swordsmen. Once the sword is successfully raised, he will most likely become the next generation of Xuanzhen swordsman. As for the little guy's missing Sui Xing Mu Qi , after I gain the title of god and return to Linshan, I can naturally make up for it easily."

"This Yan Qiguan is really good at calculating! Huh, bullshit Yan Qi, it is true that the dove takes over the magpie's nest!"

"Yanqi? Dove occupying magpie's nest?"

Qi Jingzhi repeated it in bewilderment, and many memories and thoughts about Ding Chengli's black bird's dead eggs and the changes in the Gaozi altar emerged one after another.

Immediately afterwards, his heart suddenly became angry, and he burned away all these distracting thoughts, not giving any opportunity for the internal and external demons to take advantage of him.

Qi Jingzhi calmed down, but suddenly another thought came to his mind, and his expression became strange: "If the little guy's two horns are gone in the future, wouldn't he become a female lin? No, he should be called the Linshan Goddess That’s right! This title sounds pretty good, right?”

Naturally, Shouba didn't know what the young man was thinking, so he pondered for a moment before continuing: "You are still young, and the two balls of jumping pills and flying swords have not yet taken shape, so they should be fine in the short term."

"Qi Jingzhi, although your Xianyu Mountain is not one of the Dagu Mountains, it is still a member of the Taoist sect after all. I will leave the matter of contacting Lingshan to you. What exactly is Yan Qiguan's plan? You must have accurate information. We It’s better to play it by ear.”

Qi Jingzhi was naturally responsible for this. After nodding in agreement, he couldn't help but regret that he had not bothered to tell his master about the matter. Otherwise, with the knowledge of Xuandu Temple Master, he would have noticed something wrong immediately.

"When I see Master next time, I will ask her to come forward!"

Keeping this matter in mind secretly, Qi Jingzhi turned to Shouba and asked: "Besides the skill of jumping pills and flying swords, what else does Shouchangshi know about Yan Qiguan?"

Shouba shook his head: "Xiaogu Mountain is a Taoist sect, and the Three Great Dao Palace and Dagu Mountains below are all hermit sects that don't get involved in the world of society. But if we talk about the swordsman Xuan Zhen who was relegated to the mountain master... "

"It is recorded in ancient books that when the five stars shrink and lose their position, their essence descends to the earth and becomes a human being. The Suixing star descends to a noble minister; the Yinghuo descends to a child, singing and playing; the filling star descends to an old man and a woman; the Taibai descends to a strong man and lives at the foot of the forest. "The stars descend into women. The signs of good and bad will tell you according to their signs."

"Even though the sword attendant Xuan Zhen was banished to the mortal world, he is still the lord of the mountain. Naturally, he can be called the noble minister of Sui Xing. If the sword attendants of Wuji Cliff in Lingshan are all in this way, then in addition to the noble minister of Sui Xing, there are also There should be a Yinghuo child, an old woman who fills the stars, a strong man who is too white, and a woman who is a star. The top should be five stars and the bottom should be the five elements."

Qi Jingzhi nodded and accepted the instruction, but raised an objection: "These five stars plus the sun and moon, aren't they the seven political affairs controlled by the Big Dipper? The Taoist sect has always preferred the seven-star demon-slaying sword, and I think the same is true for Yanqiguan. ?”

Without waiting for Shouba's answer, the young man seemed to have thought of something else. His eyes swept over the other party's big ears, and he smiled and said: "The essence of the ancient court, whose name is like a doctor, is like a doctor, wearing green clothes and big ears, calling him to make people suitable for the king and general." .”

"Shou Changshi is the god of King Huan's longevity palace, isn't he also the descendant of a noble minister? It is really a blessing to have a teacher like Shouchang Shi!"

Shouba was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand angrily: "Don't worry, after you go north, I will protect the little one! If the great Sima comes back before the ban is closed, I will ask him to make an idea. Let’s see if we should directly remove those two balls of gold energy or if we should take a long-term approach.”

In fact, Wuyunsi Commander Jin Yaqiu should be qualified for the job, but he was obviously not a candidate worthy of entrustment, so the two of them tacitly agreed not to mention it.

Qi Jingzhi laughed: "Getting along with a smart person like Shouchang Shi saves worry and effort. It's really like drinking fine wine and feeling like a spring breeze!"

Suddenly receiving such a comment from the young man, even Shouba, an old guy who had lived for who knows how many years, couldn't help but smile.

Just as the two of them looked at each other and smiled, Wei Yingdian finally climbed up on his hands and knees. His head and face were covered with sweat, and he had long since lost any of the so-called relaxation and comfort of "cooking the ox and the ox".

He reluctantly saluted the two superior officers, then turned around with great effort, and sat down on the top stone step. He gasped for breath and looked at the Xiuling Tiger Cavalry. The orientation of the camp.

Qi Jingzhi and Shouba also felt something in their hearts, and both turned their heads to look.

At the same time, the noise that was originally only faintly coming from that direction suddenly increased, like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

A flaming flag suddenly rose into the sky, with a purple-robed and crowned god with the head of a human and the body of a snake painted on the flag.

There are two gods standing side by side. One has angry eyes and looks down at the people, while the other has soft eyebrows and looks down with compassion.

"In the past, King Huan met the God of Snakes on the road and conquered the whole country!"

Shouba pointed at the snake flag that carried the "dominance" and said with a smile: "If you really want to talk about noble ministers, which one is the real noble minister!"
