Chapter 616: Chapter 716: Invigorating Spirit
Zhang Za audaciously discovered that Liu Xing was very tight-lipped to avoid arousing suspicion, making it impossible to test him further.
The two chatted for a while. Before returning to their rooms, they listened to the bustle in the pavilion.
Zhang Daqi boldly entered the room, listening to Sunx Liancheng’s dissatisfaction, and complained, "What nonsense place is this?" You can’t go here, don’t let it pass. Do you really think it’s a temple?"
"Young Master Sunx, this is a Daoist place that has been following these rules for hundreds of years. You should take good care of it!" Sunx Wei said, trying to be conciliatory.
At this moment, Sunx Liancheng noticed Zhang Daqi walking in boldly and immediately rushed forward, saying, "Bold Zhang Daqi, sneak to the front hall with me and take a look."
After waiting for Zhang Daqi’s bold response, Sunx Wei walked a few steps and finally suggested to Zhang Daqi, "Mr. Zhang... Mr. Zhang, we can only go to the backyard of Zifu Pass, not the front courtyard. Please go to the front hall. I hope you follow the rules and don’t disturb everyone!"
His informal admonition greatly piqued Zhang’s interest. What secret is Zifu Pass hiding?
Why does everyone come to Zicai Restaurant, get taken to the backyard, but only move around the backyard and outside?
"Sunx Wei, isn’t this a bit exaggerated?" I saw someone go to the front courtyard last night! Didn’t you go to the front courtyard to find Xuanji Dojo?" Zhang Za boldly pretended to be oblivious.
Sunx Wei saw his face and felt increasingly agitated but had to fussily explain, "Master Xuan lives in the Middle Courtyard. We only went to the Middle Courtyard!"
Zhang Daqi, hearing this, remembered that Zifu scene was a three-part courtyard, with the front courtyard mainly holding a large hall, a part of which was dedicated to Taoist immortals; the Middle Courtyard was a row of townhouses, seemingly where Taoist people lived.
"So, I know now!" You can trust that I won’t run away!" Zhang Za said solemnly.
As soon as the words fell, he heard Sunx Liancheng complaining, "Bold Zhang Za, what are you crushed?" An Daoist palace, what secrets can be created here, no one has ever visited?"
Zhang Za boldly glanced at Sunx Liancheng, ignoring him. Instead, he lay on the bed, closed his eyes to refresh his spirit.
This view of Zifu is indeed strange, not to mention it has inherited a millennium history. Just the fear of Chen Ruishu is enough to explain the issue.
Chen Ruishu couldn’t stop crying last night. Although influenced by exorcism, she said she felt inviolable sacredness the moment she entered the Zifu Temple.
Such dignity is mostly created by the gods in the Daoist temple. The people in the temple can refine this aura too. This increasingly shows that Zifu Pass and Xiu Xian are also involved.
A Daoist temple passed down for thousands of years is an ancient affair. What is the connection between them?
If Zifu Pass also inherits the undying body, why is Xuan Qi Dao both an elderly and respected by the Zhou Family? Existing ancient martial methods are not just fairy tales; they hold different substances!
Last night, Zhang Zhaolong boldly wanted to explore Zifu Pass. I heard people moving in the courtyard from time to time but feared being left behind. I must go check out what is happening tonight.
Zifu Pass is located in Wutai Mountain and has no electricity. Even lighting relies on candles. So after dinner, everyone retired early.
Until midnight, when the room’s occupants were sleeping soundly, Zhang timidly crawled out of bed and sneaked out the door.
But just as he closed the door, ready to sneak into the front yard, he heard creaking sounds in the room and someone getting out of bed.
Zhang Za boldly realized his actions might be exposed. He thought of pretending to go to the toilet at night, messing things up.
However, he took only a few steps towards the toilet and heard Sunx Liancheng whispering, "Bold Zhang Za... Bold Zhang Za, wait for me."
In the speech, Sunx Liancheng sneaked out of his room, closing the door quietly, and tiptoed to Zhang.
"Why are you up? Toilet? I don’t have a habit of peeing with others!" Zhang said boldly.
Sunx Liancheng had a guilty tone, squeaking: "Bold Zhang Za, speak softly... to the toilet?"
"These damn priests forbid going to the front courtyard, indicating there must be hidden treasures there. How about going to the front courtyard?"
Zhang Daqi was somewhat shocked by this, thinking this rascal wanted to join him?
He was awkward since doing nothing and felt embarrassed. Bringing him along would avoid trouble.
Although Zhang DaQiann’s bold hearing far exceeded the average person’s, standing in the front courtyard’s central area, he couldn’t understand part of the hall’s conversation. This puzzled him.
After waiting for Sunx Liancheng, he sneaked to the front hall’s window ledge and listened carefully to the whispers inside.
However, part of the hall’s conversation was even more audacious for Zhang and shocking, making him somewhat uneasy.
He only heard the mysterious long road asking the people below: "Can you see the rough bottom of this book clearly?"
The Taoist priests on either side quickly replied, "Master, we have investigated it clearly. He came with Sunx Wei. It is said to be Sunx Wei’s disciple, but their relationship isn’t close; there’s even animosity."
Xuan Qi Dao, filled with anticipation, looked at the two but they said nothing more, causing Xuan Qi Dao Zhang to feel disappointed.
"All of this nonsense, what’s the good side you speak of?" Xuan Qi Dao was unusually irritable, seemingly angry.
The two disciples sincerely ran to the ground, begging Xuanji Dao’s pardon.
"Enough! We’ve been in the mountains for a long time and can’t blame you for hearsay!" Xuan Qi Dao shook his head and sighed.
Before waiting for the two to respond, Xuan Qi Dao continued asking, "How much did you collect last night?"
"Qi Qi Lord, we collected a total of 800 thousand cash and over 2 million in checks!" The Taoist priest responded.
He felt very awkward by listening under the window sill. Hearing Xuan Qi Dao’s words, he was utterly shocked.
In the olden days, the Wu Family traveled across the land, encountering no issues. But a seemingly pure Xuan Qi Dao facility turned out to be a greedy generation?
I came here for the public meeting. I wanted to see the world, but I didn’t expect to see so many despicable people.
Just as Zhang Caozhi was deeply disappointed, he heard Xuan Qi Dao’s lengthy monologue: "Twenty-eight thousand, enough for two or three years."
Two or three years? Zhang DaQiann was stunned. A Daoist temple hidden in the depths of the valley, dozens of Taoist priests, spend 280 thousand a year?
Are you all fake priests, hosting nightly parties with models and occasionally holding meetings to collect money?
If the Zicai Restaurant is indeed a hypocritical place selling dog meat under the guise of sheep, why did Chen Ruishu feel inviolable sacredness?
Why are there mystical symbols in the Daoist temple? What’s the purpose of Xuanji Dao’s detailed inquiries?
A series of irrational things made Zhang Daqi realize that Zifu’s view was not that simple, and Xuan Qi Dojo was also unusual.
Sure enough, I only heard Xuan Qi Dao sighing: "Now, in the era of returning validation, the Spiritual Energy is increasingly thin. Even in the depths of Wutai Mountain, there is no Spiritual Energy. If it weren’t for the natural treasure, I’d be struggling to practice and add trouble!"
End of validation era? Aura thinning? Zhang Yong boldly heard these two key pieces of information but wasn’t shocked, instead taking a deep breath.
Xuan Qi Dojo is also a place where immortals practice!
