Chapter 8 8. Sign up

 After hearing Lei Jun’s words, Wang Guiyuan sighed:

"Yes, it is unpredictable, so we must be more careful in everything, do less and make fewer mistakes. If Junior Brother Gao and the others don't act rashly, they will not cause this disaster."

He glanced at Lei Jun as he spoke: "But you guys are lucky enough to have escaped this disaster."

 Lei Jun: “It’s indeed luck.”

Wang Guiyuan walked for a walk and gave Lei Jun a general description of what happened last night:

“Yesterday there were not two thieves, but three…”

 Lei Jun understood immediately after hearing the words.

 The first one is the little Taoist boy who stole the alchemy furnace.

 The second one set fire to the first branch of Daotongyuan.

 But the first two are probably just cannon fodder used to create chaos and attract attention.

Last night, after the young Taoist priest surnamed Gao led people back to the Taoist courtyard at the foot of the mountain, there was greater noise from the mountain. It was the third man who was doing something on the mountain.

“An uncle from our sect stole a treasure from the mountain. When he was escaping down the mountain, he happened to bump into Junior Brother Gao and several others.”

Wang Guiyuan said: "Although the elder was still captured afterwards, Junior Brother Gao and others were killed. The two cases in Daotong Yuan were also secretly instigated by this elder."

Lei Jun: "I really can't imagine that something like this would happen on Longhu Mountain."

Wang Guiyuan seemed to have suddenly changed the subject: "A while ago, Uncle Du brought back a magic weapon from abroad, which eventually caused the altar to explode and the Taoist boy was killed and injured.

This incident was indeed an accident, but it was not an evil thing, but a magical weapon that originally belonged to the sect. "

 He stopped and looked back at Lei Jun: "Lingzhi Terrace, do you still remember it?"

Lei Jun nodded.

Wang Guiyuan: “Back then, there was a civil strife in our sect, and the people who damaged the Lingzhi platform fled, and their magical instruments were also taken away. The magical instruments were only recently recovered by Master Du.

So the accident at Master Du's Dharma Altar earlier caused the spiritual energy of the Lingzhi Station to revive. It should be because of this magic weapon. To untie the bell, the person who tied the bell must be tied. "

Lei Jun: "This time, is this the magical weapon that the elder stole from the mountain?"

 Wang Guiyuan: “Yes.”

 Lei Jun understands.

After the civil strife in Tianshi Mansion subsided, the losers of the civil strife were driven down the mountain or fled down the mountain.

 But they still have internal support on the mountain, or develop new supporters.

 Hence this incident of theft and murder.

Compared with the devastating civil strife that year, this can only be considered a minor disturbance now.

 But if Taoist priest Gao and others collide, it will be a fatal situation in fortune-telling.

As for the cause of the civil strife that year, Wang Guiyuan did not say it clearly, but compared with the turmoil last night, it is not difficult to guess that it was due to the control of the position of Heavenly Master by the blood of the Li family.

It is conceivable that the conflict between the surname Li and the surname Wai became more intense.

 There will be greater mutual wariness and hostility.

I can be considered a foreigner... Lei Jun shook his head.

  However, just as he said to the thief, a little Taoist boy who is in the first level of Qi refining realm can only serve as cannon fodder in similar matters.

Whether you want to get involved or not, you must first improve your own cultivation.

 Afterwards, as Lei Jun expected, the official results announced by the division were vague.

But the news of the death of the young Taoist priest and others still caused a stir in the Tianshi Mansion.

After all, it was no more an accident than the explosion of Elder Du’s altar.

This time it was on Longhu Mountain, the ancestral site of the majestic Taoist Fulu sect, and his true disciple was killed.

 It will take longer for the storm to subside.

Lei Jun calmed down faster than other Taoist boys.

 Attend class and listen to lectures as usual during the day, and concentrate on your own practice at night.

Since the beginning of this year, Daotongyuan has been experiencing some troubles.

 The impact of the earlier internal thief incident has finally subsided.

 At least on the surface it is gradually calming down.

 But one wave has not subsided and another wave has arisen.

One day, after Lei Jun had just finished his morning class in the hall of the Sixth Branch, he heard other little Taoist boys gathering together again and talking among themselves:

“Senior Brother Lei, have you heard? This time it’s the eighth branch next door’s turn to have trouble!”

Lei Jun: "How to say it?"

That senior fellow apprentice Zhang, a skinny Taoist boy named Zhang Yuan, was mysterious:

“Junior brother Chen Yi and Chen from the Eighth Branch, the same Chen Yi who had obtained the pure gold Ganoderma lucidum from Ganoderma lucidum, had earlier taken an errand and went down the mountain to practice. As a result, he injured three senior brothers from the Third Branch outside the mountain, killing one and injuring two!”

 Other Taoist boys discussed a lot:

"One against three? So awesome!" "He has pure gold Ganoderma lucidum!"

“But I heard that Senior Brother Chen’s cultivation has improved rapidly this year. It seems that he will definitely participate in the transmission ceremony next year.”

“Fathers fighting each other and causing death, let him pass today’s test first and then talk about it…”

Zhang Yuan nodded: "I heard that he was imprisoned in the disciplinary center of the Eighth Branch when he returned to the mountain last night. Both the Third Branch and the Eighth Branch have arranged for people to guard him."

Some of the Taoist boys gloated about Chen Yi's misfortune, and they felt like things were changing. You were lucky before and now you are unlucky.

There are also people who admire Chen Yi's strength and envy his rapid rise. In the Taotong Courtyard at the foot of Tianshi Mansion Mountain, he has been almost unparalleled in the limelight this year.

A few days later, accurate news finally came back:

 Chen Yi was not severely punished.

 The two Taoist boys who were injured by him were punished more severely by the master's discipline than he was.

In the sixth branch, Zhang Yuan and others were surprised: "Did they do it first? Did they ambush and plot?"

The little Taoist boy who inquired about the information nodded repeatedly: "The evidence in Chen Yi's hands is conclusive, clear and clear, and cannot be denied by those three people."

Lei Jun: "Did they attack and plot against Chen Yi just to please the Taoist priest on the mountain?"

Tao Tong: "I heard that's the case. Fortunately, Senior Brother Chen's cultivation level has improved rapidly recently, exceeding their expectations. As a result, the three of them joined forces and succeeded."

Everyone was filled with emotion and had different thoughts.

Lei Jun continues to live and practice at his own pace.

 Summer passes and autumn comes.

 As time went by, Lei Jun’s practice gradually deepened.

 The ninth sea of ​​qi was successfully opened up in his body, marking his reaching the ninth level of qi refining.

 One day in September at noon, Lei Jun had some practice problems after lunch. He first went to consult Wang Guiyuan, and then went to the Deacon Hall to receive the training experience.

 Since I arrived late, most of the good errands have basically been arranged.

 If there are still vacancies, there are only two items left.

 One, Fu Mo Fang makes ink.

Taoist priests in Tianshi Mansion make talismans. In addition to talisman pens, talisman paper and other materials, they also use talisman ink.

 In addition to cinnabar, there are also higher quality talisman inks with different materials.

However, the aura of some talismans is quite strange, so this is a job that little Taoist boys rarely choose on their own initiative. In many cases, they have to directly capture the strong men and assign them to them.

 Fu Mo is often used, and errands are often needed.

 The other mission was a temporary one only recently.

 Longhu Mountain is located within the boundary of Xinzhou, which is densely covered with rivers and swamps. It rains every summer and there are frequent floods.

 Fortunately, experts from Tianshi Mansion came down to help control the flood, so the disaster was not serious.

 However, some people were still displaced. In autumn, a serious epidemic broke out among the refugees. After receiving the news, the Tianshi Mansion organized disaster relief and elimination.

 Most of the relevant matters are led by the Taoist priest on the mountain, and the Tianshi Mansion organizes personnel or shopkeepers responsible for various industries and businesses at the foot of the mountain to handle the specific matters.

 The Tao Tong Yuan also often sends Tao Tong to participate as a sending experience.

 Slightly different from other errands, going out to provide disaster relief does not mean that you go there on the same day and come back the same day. This can take as little as three or five days, and as long as half a month or a month at most.

 Some people are more enthusiastic and will take the initiative to participate.

 Some people regard it as drudgery and avoid it.

 It's okay to say that the time spent there was short.

 Over time, it will inevitably affect one's own practice. How can the environment outside the mountain compare to the beautiful and beautiful land of Longhu Mountain?

Lei Jun came late today, so the Deacon Hall only had two tasks left to do: making ink and providing disaster relief.

Of course, he could simply not take the job today and go back to the small courtyard to practice on his own.

He usually has a lot of errands. The thieves who previously participated in the roundup of the alchemy furnace have made meritorious deeds, and the accumulated merits are quite substantial, no less than a day or two.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the ball of light in Lei Jun’s mind flashed again, and words appeared:

 【When the city gate is on fire, an eagle strikes the sky and turns around, or a fish flies to the shallow bottom and hides deep to avoid danger】

Lei Jun has become accustomed to this ball of light popping out of nowhere.

His mind immediately focused on reading the three new fortunes that flew out of the light ball:

  【Sign up and go to Qingyundang Riverbank to provide disaster relief. You will get a third-grade opportunity. The dragon lurks in the abyss and soars into the sky. Good luck! 】

   【Winning the lottery, not being sent by experience and training, returning to the residence to meditate alone, not doing well, nothing gained, nothing lost, average. 】

  【Win the lottery, go to Fu Mo Workshop to make ink, the city gate is on fire, affecting the fish in the pond, temporary loss of freedom, hidden dangers, bad luck. 】

 Sign up... Lei Jun let out a long breath.

 Having drawn the lottery so many times, this is the first time I see the lottery drawn.

Three -grade opportunities, on the five grades, the essence of Zijin Lingzhi and the scale of the Liupin chance, can you help you recover the disadvantage of getting started late?

However, the destiny indicated by the fortune reminds him to go to the mountains to participate in disaster relief and epidemic relief.
