Chapter 297 Something Is Not Right
"Yun Yilan?"

Zhou Yixian held a stick in his hand, and muttered these three words in his mouth.

After a while, Zhou Yixian dropped the bag in his hand, then shook his head and said: "When I brought Xiaohuan to Fenxiang Valley, Shangguan Ce received me. As for Yun Yilan, I didn't see him."

"I heard from Shangguan Ce that Yun Yilan has been in seclusion for many years."

"I overheard some disciples of Fenxiang Valley gossip, saying that the owner of the valley, Yun Yilan, may have suffered a serious injury that has not healed for many years."

"However, it's false news if you think about it. Yun Yilan has deep plans. I've heard about it many years ago."

"This time, Fenxiang Valley and Tianyin Temple came to Qingyun together. I heard that Yun Yilan and old monk Puhong came together."

"For Yun Yilan, who has lived in seclusion for many years without showing his face, to appear, it seems that this time the beast tide is really hard to resist."

"Even Fenxianggu, a big faction that has been in southern Xinjiang for many years, is hard to resist."

Lu Fengqiu smiled lightly. He also learned a lot about this Fenxiang Valley over the years.

The founder of the Fenxiang Valley sect was named Yun Xiaotian, who was not from the Middle Earth, but the leader of the Southern Xinjiang clan. This Yun Xiaotian combined a volume of heavenly scriptures with Southern Xinjiang spells to create the Fenxiang Jade Book. Fenxiang Valley was founded.

Although Fenxiang Valley has seldom moved around in the middle of the earth these years, it is natural that they can be listed as one of the three righteous sects together with Qingyunmen.

Seeing Lu Fengqiu smiling and not speaking, Zhou Yixian couldn't figure out what Lu Fengqiu was thinking.

At this time, Zhou Xiaohuan, who was practicing outside the Huanyue Ancient Cave Stone, ran in and said to Lu Fengqiu, "Grandpa Patriarch, Big Brother Xiao is here."

Lu Fengqiu nodded and said, "Just let him in."

Zhou Xiaohuan walked out, and after a while, Xiao Yi came in from the stone room.

Xiao Yicai bowed to Lu Fengqiu and Zhou Yixian.

"Yicai met Patriarch, Master Uncle."

Lu Fengqiu looked at the chessboard, holding the pieces in his hand, and said, "Aren't you receiving guests?"

Xiao Yicai showed a wry smile on his face, and said: "Patriarch, a little accident happened, Master Tian asked me to invite you, old man."

Lu Fengqiu said: "What's going on?"

Xiao Yicai said: "Patriarch, Sect Master Yun suddenly proposed marriage with Uncle Shuiyue in the palace, and wanted Uncle Shuiyue to betroth Junior Sister Lu to Sect Master Yun's personal eldest disciple Li Xun."

"Master Shuiyue's temperament, you also know it, so you just shook your face and said you don't agree."

"The Yun Sect Master was refuted, so he talked to Pukong Divine Monk, saying that Qingyun Sect has the patriarch to support you, so we won't take the World Righteous Path Alliance seriously."

"I was clamoring to see you, Patriarch, and asked you to come out to be an abbot. I also said that if it is inconvenient for you, Patriarch, it is okay to let my master go out to meet you."

"Junior Brother Lin and Junior Brother Zhang went to Tianyin Temple to make a big fuss earlier, and I'm afraid they also offended Tianyin Temple."

"Right now, there are quite a few righteous people in the temple. Uncle Tian feels that we are in the wrong, so it's not easy to argue for it. After all, they put the hat of the leader of the righteous way in the world on our Qingyunmen's head. If the treatment is unfair Now, it is inevitable that righteous people in the world will say that I am a powerful person, and they will not pay attention to all my colleagues."

"Uncle Tian was afraid that something would happen to these two families, so he asked me to hurry up and invite you out to suppress the situation."

Hearing this, Lu Fengqiu gave birth to another son in a leisurely manner, and then said to Zhou Yixian, "This Yun Yilan is a drunkard who doesn't want to drink, and makes use of it. He just wants to see me today."

Zhou Yixian smiled and said: "It seems that they are really impatient. Without you speaking personally, they still feel a little uneasy in their hearts."

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said, "Okay, aren't they going to meet Daoxuan?"

"Then let Daoxuan go out and meet them."

"Yicai, go invite your master and ask him to entertain guests at the Palace of Jade Purity."

Xiao Yicai heard the words, bowed and said: "Understood, Yicai resigns."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yi left.

Zhou Yixian looked at Lu Fengqiu and said, "Patriarch asked Daoxuan to meet them?"

Lu Fengqiu smiled and said, "What? What's wrong?"

Zhou Yixian said: "Ten years ago, Daoxuan was no longer the head teacher of Qingyun Sect, now let him go out to entertain guests."

Lu Fengqiu said: "Don't worry, Daoxuan knows the importance, and he probably doesn't want to spend the rest of his life guarding the ancestral hall of the ancestor."

"People are not sages, and there is nothing wrong with them. There are some things that should be made clear."

"If Daoxuan still has some small thoughts and cannot pass today's test, then he will really have to guard the ancestor's ancestral hall for the rest of his life."

Zhou Yixian heard the words and said, "The patriarch is brilliant."

……

Qingyun Mountain, Tongtian Peak, and Yuqing Palace.

At this time, the hall was already full of people, densely packed figures, apart from Qingyunmen disciples, were other righteous people.

Among them, Qingyunmen, Tianyin Temple, and Fenxiang Valley are the most prominent.

The top seat is empty.

Sitting in the row on the left are the chief seats and elders of Qingyunmen.

Tian Buyi sat in the middle, his face a little embarrassed, he looked at Yun Yilan, the owner of Fenxiang Valley who was sitting in red, sitting opposite, and beside Yun Yilan was Yun Yilan's junior, Shangguan Ce, who stood behind him It was a group of elders and disciples from Fenxiang Valley, probably dozens of people.

Then, he looked at the first water moon on Xiaozhufeng sitting in a row with him.

Only heard that Yun Yilan said: "Qingyun sect is the largest sect in the world today, the patriarch of Qingyun has cultivated a spiritual power, unexpectedly he is still alive."

"If you do the math, senior Qingyunzi probably has a lifespan of more than 2000 years. Since ancient times, all mortals have died. Today, there are as many people who cultivate the truth and practice the Tao in the world as there are countless crucian carp crossing the river. There is only one person as powerful as senior Qing Yunzi."

"I don't know when Patriarch Qingyun will come out to meet us, let me also pay my respects to Patriarch's demeanor."

"In today's world, the righteous way is prosperous, and the evil spirits are retreating, and most of them rely on the prestige of Qingyun Patriarch to deter the evil spirits in the world."

"It's just that the catastrophe of the world is coming, if Patriarch Qingyun keeps avoiding me, I'm afraid it will inevitably be criticized by others. If he doesn't know right from wrong, he thinks it's because he is afraid that we will drag him down."

"Today, the reason why I, Fenxiang Valley, and all the Righteous Path Alliance came to Qingyun Mountain is probably because they admire Patriarch Qingyun's famous name."

"If Patriarch Qingyun is inconvenient to come out, it's okay to let Senior Brother Daoxuan come out to see him."

"Senior brother Tian is not Qingyun's head teacher, so there are some things that he can't decide."

"Senior Brother Daoxuan and I are old acquaintances. For some matters, it should be more convenient for Senior Brother Daoxuan to communicate with us."

Tian Buyi heard the words and said: "Sect Master Yun, you are being polite. I, Qingyun Sect, cannot bear the title of the number one sect in the world. Tianyin Temple and Fenxiang Valley are both righteous humeruses. The world's righteous giant sect is admired by everyone in the world. , Sect Master Yun and Puhong Divine Monk can come here, it really makes Qingyunmen flourish."

"Brother Daoxuan has long since given up on secular affairs. He has guarded the ancestral hall of the ancestors in the back mountain for many years and never saw any outsiders."

"As for my patriarch, he is currently in seclusion. He told me not to disturb him. I'm really sorry."

"Everyone must be aware that a few days ago my Qingyun Mountain was covered with golden lights. To tell you the truth, it's all because my patriarch was penetrating a supernatural power, which gave him this vision."

"The Patriarch has ordered you to gather in Qingyun Mountain today, let me entertain you, don't be rude."

"Everyone, please stay calm."

"As for Sect Master Yun's proposal of marriage for his disciple, in the face of a great enemy, the overall situation should be the most important thing. These matters of children's affection should be discussed later."

"Sect Master Yun, what do you think?"

Tian Buyi's complexion was not very good-looking, and he looked towards Yun Yilan.

Yun Yilan heard the words, and said lightly: "Senior brother Tian is not unreasonable, it is true that the enemy is now, and the overall situation should be the most important."

"However, a few days ago, I heard that Patriarch Qingyun personally went to the Great Western Swamp and took away the rare treasures in the Great Western Swamp. Dare I ask Senior Brother Tian, ​​is there such a thing?"

"I don't know what that strange treasure looks like? What kind of treasure is it?"

Tian Buyi frowned and said: "Sect Master Yun, my patriarch never knew how to understand us disciples and grandchildren, how can I, as disciples and grandchildren, know clearly."

"If Sect Master Yun has any questions, why don't you wait for my patriarch to leave the customs and ask my patriarch in person."

When Yun Yilan heard this, she stopped talking.

On the contrary, it was Pukong monk from Tianyin Temple who said: "Senior brother Tian, ​​a few days ago, disciples of your school, Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan, took my brother Puzhi's body without authorization, crushed my brother Puzhi to ashes, I don't know about this matter Should your faction give me an explanation from Tianyin Temple?"

Sitting next to Monk Pukong is Monk Puhong.

Monk Puhong sat there motionless.

Standing behind the two, Faxiang showed a strange look on his face.

Tian Buyi heard the words, and only said: "Why this happened, Pukong Divine Monk should be well aware."

"In this Yuqing Palace back then, my patriarch has already said it clearly, so I don't think I need to repeat it."

When Monk Pukong heard that Tian Buyi had moved out of Qingyunzi, he couldn't help showing annoyance on his face, and he wanted to speak out to argue.

At this time, Monk Pu Hong said: "Junior brother, don't be rash, I have already told you clearly about the cause and effect of this matter, we are not here today to argue about these things."

Monk Pukong snorted coldly when he heard the words, and didn't say any more.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little awkward.

At this moment, two figures walked in at the entrance of the hall.

After seeing the leader, the leaders of Qing Yunmen were stunned for a while.

That person was dressed in a dark green Taoist robe, with an immortal demeanor, he was Daoxuan Daoxuan who had been the head of Qingyun Sect for many years.

In the past ten years, Daoxuan has been guarding the ancestral hall of the ancestor, not seeing outsiders.

Not to mention ordinary disciples of Qingyun Sect, even the head elders of each branch have never met Daoxuan.

Looking at the person coming, Tian Buyi couldn't help wondering: "How could it be Senior Brother Daoxuan?"

Suru, who was sitting beside Tian Buyi, said: "The Patriarch probably asked Brother Daoxuan to come out to entertain guests."

Tian Buyi looked at the immortal Daoxuan with an inexplicable expression, and said softly: "Ten years, a full ten years, senior brother Daoxuan seems to have changed a bit."

Suru also looked towards Daoxuan, nodded slightly and said: "Yes."

Although Daoxuan's appearance has not changed, but Daoxuan ten years ago does not look as peaceful as today.

At the entrance of the main hall, Daoxuan and Xiao Yicai walked in one after the other.

As soon as Daoxuan entered the hall, Yun Yilan and the others stood up.

"Senior Brother Daoxuan, I haven't seen you for many years, do you miss my brother?"

Yun Yilan laughed loudly.

Reverend Daoxuan stepped forward and said with a smile, "Benefactor Yun, long time no see."

Reverend Daoxuan looked at Yun Yilan, and then said: "Unexpectedly, I haven't seen you for many years, Your Excellency has made great progress in Taoism, and you have comprehended the realm of Yuyang from the Fenxiang Jade Book. It is the first of its kind in the 800-year history of Fenxiang Valley. Congratulations."

Yun Yilan's expression changed when he heard the words, and then he laughed loudly: "Senior brother Daoxuan really has good eyesight, I admire, admire!"

Daoxuan smiled, and said: "Where, where, I should be the one who admires you."

Yun Yilan said with a smile: "I heard that senior brother Daoxuan was no longer the head of Qingyun ten years ago, but now he has nothing to do and focuses on cultivating the truth and Taoism. I really envy you, little brother."

Hearing this, Daoxuan's expression did not change, and he said to Yun Yilan, "Cultivation should be like this. If Master Yun is envious, he can entrust the job of the Valley Master to the younger generation, and he will be disappointed." Take it easy."

Yun Yilan chuckled, and said: "I am not as open-minded as Senior Brother Daoxuan, just worrying about my life."

Daoxuan stopped talking to Yun Yilan, but said to Monk Puhong, "God Puhong, be polite."

Monk Puhong looked at Daoxuan, then nodded slightly, and then said: "Brother Daoxuan is polite."

Daoxuan stepped forward, and did not sit down towards the main seat, but stood in the center of the hall, and said to everyone: "Everyone gathered at Qingyun Sect today, there must be some important matters to discuss, but right now, my patriarch is in retreat, All important matters have to be decided by my ancestors."

"Everyone is resting on the mountain for the past few days, and it won't be too late to discuss with you after my patriarch leaves the customs."

After finishing speaking, Daoxuan said to Xiao Yicai who was at the side: "Yicai, we must make proper arrangements to send you fellows to rest."

Then, Daoxuan turned around and said to Monk Puhong and Yun Yilan: "You two, I've been negligent, please wait for a few days, and discuss important matters with everyone after my patriarch leaves the customs. I'm just an idler now. went."

With that said, Daoxuan walked away directly with his hands behind his back.

It didn't take much effort for Daoxuan to come and go.

Yun Yilan in the hall was a little dumbfounded. He looked at Daoxuan's back, and a look of doubt flashed in his eyes. In his impression, Daoxuan was not such a person willing to be lonely.

Many people in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay.

……

It was dark.

In a small guest house above Tongtian Peak.

In a brightly lit room.

Yun Yilan, the owner of Fenxiang Valley, who was dressed in red, was sitting at the table, tapping lightly with one hand on the table. Sitting opposite him was Shangguan Ce.

Yun Yilan showed a dignified expression, and said: "It seems that Qingyunzi's control over Qingyunmen is far beyond our imagination."

Shangguan Ce was puzzled: "Brother, isn't it that we came to Qingyunmen to meet the alliance this time to unite Qingyunmen to resist the tide of beast monsters?"

"Is there any relationship between Qingyunzi's control over Qingyunmen and this matter?"

Yun Yilan said: "Of course it has something to do with it. Qing Yunzi was suddenly born ten years ago."

"Don't you think it's weird?"

Shangguan Ce frowned and said, "What's wrong? Could it be that Senior Brother thinks that the identity of Qingyun Patriarch is fake?"

Yun Yilan shook her head and said: "Before I met Daoxuan today, I had such thoughts, but after meeting Daoxuan today, I knew that Qing Yunzi's identity could not be fake."

"What a cunning and calculating person Daoxuan is, to be recognized by him, this Qingyunzi must be the patriarch of Qingyun sect."

"If this Qingyunzi is really the patriarch of Qingyunmen, he would be more than 2000 years old now."

"Looking at those of us cultivators, those with a high level of cultivation can only live for a few hundred years, and the powerful Qingye Daoist in the past can only live for more than 700 years."

"It's just that the Qingyun sect has not been smooth sailing for more than 2000 years. It has also experienced the disaster of destroying the sect. Why does this Qingyun patriarch stay hidden?"

"It didn't appear until ten years ago?"

Shangguan Ce said: "Such a powerful person naturally has a reason to hide from the world, and it is also a reason why we don't know."

Yun Yilan nodded slightly and said: "What junior brother said is very true, but I am not worried about this, what I am worried about is that this ancestor Qingyun has been reclusive for thousands of years, there must be very few things in this world that he does not know .”

"Maybe, this ancestor Qingyun also knows about my Fenxiang Valley, Men Qing'er."

"I'm afraid he might know some secrets about our Fenxiang Valley."

"If that's the case, it's going to be very bad."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Ce couldn't help but said: "Senior brother, don't you worry too much? Even if the ancestor Qingyun is a god, he can't know the world's affairs."

Yun Yilan glared at Shangguan Ce, and said, "One hundred years of planning will be in vain."

"My heart is very uneasy. After seeing Daoxuan today, I feel that something is not quite right."

"Who Daoxuan is, I still know very well. This person is fishing for fame. Even if he is not the head of the sect, he can't ignore the people in the world. Even for the reputation of Qingyun sect, he can't stand by."

"Qingyun sect is the largest sect in the world. It is unreasonable to ignore such a big event. Qingyunzi avoids us. Daoxuan has that kind of attitude. I think there must be a mystery in it."

"Right now, we have no choice but to reach an agreement with that beast monster. If this matter comes to light, I, Fenxiang Valley, will have no place to stand on the right path."

"My thousand-year foundation in Fenxiang Valley cannot be destroyed by you and me, do you understand?"

Shangguan Ce heard the words, frowned and said: "Brother, the matter has reached this point, so what do you think?"

Yun Yilan said: "It's better to meet this Patriarch Qingyun earlier, otherwise I will always be in a panic, and I always feel that there is a stone in my heart that has not landed."

Shangguan Ce said: "Daoxuan said today that Qing Yunzi is in seclusion, and he doesn't come out of the seclusion, so what can we do?"

Yun Yilan put one hand on the table, pondered for a moment, then waved to Shangguan Ce: "Junior brother, come here with your ears."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Ce leaned towards Yun Yilan.

The lights are flickering, the moonlight is charming, and the ramblings are so idiotic.

……

Qingyun Mountain, Dazhu Peak.

The mountain wind blew through the green bamboo forest, bringing up waves of bamboo waves, which echoed in the secluded forest in the empty valley.

The night is charming, and the quiet hall is brightly lit.

Tian Buyi and Suru are sitting in the hall, Tian Buyi is thinking about the day's affairs, there is still some displeasure on his fat face.

Seeing this, Suru comforted her, "It's almost done, it's not over yet."

Tian Buyi patted the table and said, "Tell me, what kind of medicine is sold in this old thief Yun's gourd?"

Suru glared at him, and said: "Yun Yilan has always been very scheming, guess what his thoughts are, you just need to know that the Patriarch is there, everything is not a problem."

Tian Buyi heard the words, nodded slowly, and said: "What Ru'er said is true, but I think a little too much."

Suru said: "Didn't you see that Xiao Yicai invited Senior Brother Daoxuan today?"

"Without the consent of the Patriarch, how dare Senior Daoxuan leave the Patriarch's Ancestral Hall?"

"The patriarch didn't see these people, so there is naturally the patriarch's intention."

"It's still the same sentence, with the patriarch, everything is not a problem."

Tian Buyi heard the words, nodded, and said: "Yes, yes, what Ru'er said is correct."

Suru looked at Tian Buyi angrily.

At this moment, Tian Linger broke in from the outside and said: "Father, mother, the junior brother is back!"

Tian Buyi heard the words, immediately got up and said: "Lao Qi is back?"

"This kid went down the mountain at the order of his patriarch. Lin Jingyu has already returned to the mountain. He hasn't come back yet. Hurry up and tell him to come in. I want to ask where this kid went these days."

Tian Ling'er heard the words, but her expression was a little unsightly, and she said: "Father, junior brother, he, he, something seems wrong, his whole body is covered with blood."

Now not only Tian Buyi became anxious, even Suru's expression changed.

The two hurriedly followed Tian Linger out.
