Chapter 112 The Envoy from the Jin Dynasty
Zhu Qing Zhenren and Liu Yiyun looked at He Qingrou with great concern.
For the Xianxia Sect now, whether they can find the "Grandmaster" is too important.
This is enough to affect the survival and prosperity of the entire sect.
"Master, Master, please rest assured." He Qingrou smiled and said, "Disciple has verified that the Cui Shijun who dominates Fengzhou is the master of the Grandmaster, our Grandmaster."
In fact, normally, He Qingrou, Zhu Qing Zhenren, Liu Yiyun and other Xianxia Sect disciples should call Cui Heng the Grandmaster.
But this name of "Grandmaster" was determined by their Hengxia Grandmaster, and it was also approved by Cui Heng, so they called him that.
"Really?!"
"Is he really our Grandmaster?!"
Zhu Qing Zhenren and Liu Yiyun were so happy when they heard this that they couldn't keep calm anymore and couldn't help laughing.
Although they had been prepared after learning the name "Cui Heng" and that the man could perform "Sword Light Flying Colorful Clouds" and trigger the fairy sword phenomenon, they still felt a little unreal when they got the definite answer.
Xianxia Sect has been looking forward to this Grandmaster for too long.
Both of them are second-generation disciples of Xianxia Sect, that is, Jiang Qiqi's grandchildren. Unlike third-generation disciples like He Qingrou, they have truly practiced with Jiang Qiqi.
They know more about this Grandmaster than He Qingrou.
A hundred years ago, before the great war, when Jiang Qiqi was still in Xianxia Sect, Zhu Qing Zhenren and Liu Yiyun, who were only inner disciples at the time, were ordered to go down the mountain to find the whereabouts of Cui Heng.
This was an order given by their master, but both of them knew that it must be the founder who was looking for him.
Moreover, this search had begun since the founder destroyed Cangxuan Sect and established Xianxia Sect on Cangcheng Mountain.
At the beginning, it was the first generation of disciples of Xianxia Sect, that is, Jiang Qiqi's direct disciples, and then it was replaced by Zhu Qing Zhenren and Liu Yiyun, the second generation of disciples.
Although there has been no gain for a long time, it is conceivable that the founder obviously wants to continue this matter as a tradition.
But after the great war a hundred years ago, the founder disappeared, Xianxia Sect closed its doors, and disciples were no longer free to leave the mountain, so the mission to find "Cui Heng" naturally came to nothing.
Unexpectedly, when the hundred-year period was approaching and Xianxia Sect was about to face a life-and-death crisis, they actually found the founder.
"Yes, it must be the founder." He Qingrou said with certainty, "The founder performed the sword flying in front of the disciples, which was extremely perfect, even more perfect than the description in the sect's secret book.
"The founder also knew the lay name of the founder Hengxia, and the vision of the Purple Cloud Sword was enough to prove that Envoy Cui was our founder."
"Good, good! That's great! "Master Zhu Qing was extremely excited, with a smile on her beautiful face, and nodded, "Come on, let's go back to the mountain first, and we'll go to the ancestral hall to talk."
"Yes, Master." He Qingrou hurriedly bowed and followed.
"Yingying, come along too." Liu Yiyu called out to the bewildered Chen Ying.
"Ah?" Chen Ying's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she immediately nodded and said, "Okay! Thank you, Master! "
The Ancestral Hall was originally called Hengxia Palace, where the ancestor Hengxia Zhenren discussed matters with his disciples.
Later, when the ancestor disappeared, the place was changed into the Ancestral Hall, and it is still used to discuss important matters.
No fourth-generation disciple has ever entered the Ancestral Hall.
She should be the first.
...
Due to the closure of the mountain, the Xianxia Sect has a small population.
Many palaces that were bustling in the past have now become deserted.
Zhenren Zhuqing and Liu Yiyu brought He Qingrou and Chen Ying back from the mountain gate, and they only met three or four disciples along the way.
Moreover, they were all third-generation disciples of the same generation as He Qingrou.
Seeing that Zhenren Zhuqing and Liu Yiyu were both excited with rosy faces, they felt a little curious and couldn't help whispering.
"Master and Uncle Liu seem very happy. Is there any good news? "
"What good news can there be? Now the hundred-year period is approaching, and we don't know if we can survive this time."
"Don't talk nonsense, a hundred years ago, the ancestors made a covenant with the immortals and Buddhas in the upper world not to attack each other."
"Could it be that some treasures appeared at the foot of the mountain? I saw Sister He hurried down the mountain before, and now she is back in just a few days."
"I hope it will be some good news, alas..."
These disciples are generally not optimistic and have a
negative In fact, this is not surprising.
In recent decades, there have been a number of first-generation disciples who have not yet reached the divine realm, and even second-generation disciples who have died of old age.
However, due to the closure of the mountain, only a dozen new disciples have been recruited in the past hundred years.
Old people die, but new people rarely come in.
This has led to a decrease in the number of people in the Xianxia Sect.
Many disciples are becoming more and more depressed and can no longer see hope for the future.
Today, on Cangcheng Mountain, the entire Xianxia Sect has no more than fifty disciples.
Half of them are third-generation disciples.
Most of them became disciples before the Xianxia Sect closed the mountain. A small number of them were taken in after the mountain was closed.
For example, He Qingrou.
Many of the older third-generation disciples are already over a hundred years old.
If they cannot achieve the divine realm,
in a few decades, these third-generation disciples will also die of old age.
At that time, some second-generation disciples who have reached the divine realm will also be dying.
By then, it is definitely not an empty talk that the entire Cangcheng Mountain will become the grave of Xianxia Sect.
In such an environment, who can always maintain a positive attitude?
From various aspects, lifting the mountain closure is already a top priority for the current Xianxia Sect.
...
The layout of the Patriarch Hall is very simple.
A long table and a few chairs, plus a few desks, candlesticks and other things, that's all there is here.
There aren't too many decorations.
After the four of them came here, Master Zhu Qing and Liu Yiyu didn't rush to ask about Cui Heng.
Instead, they asked the disciples outside to invite the other two sword masters over.
Jiang Qiqi left five immortal swords before she disappeared. Every sword master recognized by the immortal swords can be said to be the absolute core of the Xianxia Sect.
After a while, two young female priests also came to the Patriarch's Hall.
One of them carried a long sword on her back, and the other one hung a long sword on her waist.
They were the sword masters of "Qiuyun" and "Xizhao" respectively, and they were the third generation disciples of He Qingrou's generation.
Zhu Qing Zhenren is the master of the "Red Sun" sword, and Liu Yiyu is the master of the "White Rainbow" sword.
"Greetings to the head, Master Liu."
Qiuyun Sword Master and Xizhao Sword Master saluted respectfully, and saw He Qingrou and Chen Ying at the same time, and they couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Could it be that something big happened?
At this time, are the immortals and Buddhas from the upper realm descending again?
Thinking of this, the two of them suddenly tensed up and were ready to fight at any time.
"Don't be nervous." Zhu Qing Zhenren smiled lightly, "It's a good thing, Qingrou, you come and tell everyone about the ancestor."
Grandpa ancestor? !
Qiuyun Sword Master and Xizhao Sword Master were confused. What kind of title is this?
Isn't the ancestor Zhenren Hengxia a woman of unparalleled beauty?
How...
"Grandpa is the master of our Hengxia Grandpa..." He Qingrou told Chen Ying what she saw and heard in Lu County, as well as her own experience in Changfeng Prefecture.
This naturally included Cui Heng's permission for Xianxia Sect to cancel the closure of the mountain, and his promise to take Xianxia Sect to kill people after the immortals and Buddhas from the upper realms descended.
Master Zhuqing and Liu Yiyu didn't know this before.
Now hearing these two things, they all became excited.
Reopen the mountain gate!
Xianxia Sect will be saved!
And with Grandpa, there is no need to worry about the arrival of the hundred-year period and the immortals and Buddhas descending from the upper realm!
Qiuyun Sword Master and Xizhao Sword Master cried with joy.
They have deep feelings for Xianxia Sect, but for so many years, they could only watch Xianxia Sect decline day by day without being able to do anything.
Now Xianxia Sect finally has a chance to revive.
"I will report this to Master and Uncle Master Zheng." Zhu Qing Zhenren made a decision and said in a deep voice, "Yiyun, you should inform the disciples of Xianxia Sect that Xianxia Sect is about to reopen the mountain gate." There are
only more than 40 people in Xianxia Sect now. There is no need to pass the news on for such a big event as reopening the mountain gate.
The Master and Uncle Master Zheng she mentioned are the only two remaining first-generation disciples of Xianxia Sect, that is, Jiang Qiqi's direct disciples.
"Well, okay!" Liu Yiyun nodded.
"Qingrou, you and Yingying will organize everyone to get ready later..." Master Zhuqing assigned tasks to He Qingrou and Chen Ying, "When my master and Uncle Yu Zheng come over, we will go to Changfeng Prefecture together to pay respects to the Grandmaster."
"Yes!" He Qingrou and Chen Ying said in unison.
They were very excited.
Xianxia Sect hasn't had such a lively atmosphere for a long time.
This feeling is so good!
And all this is because the Grandmaster has been found.
Xianxia Sect is no longer without a backbone!
...
When Xianxia Sect was preparing to come to Changfeng Prefecture to pay respects to Cui Heng.
An urgent letter was delivered to the inner hall of Cui Heng's governor's office.
It was delivered by Liu Litao himself.
"Sir, this is a letter from Chen Tong, sent urgently, probably about something urgent." Liu Litao said.
"Oh?" Cui Heng took the letter and opened it casually, "I remember that he should be promoting the new decree with Hui Shi in Yunshu County now, it's about Yunshu County... it's really Yunshu County's business."
"Yunshu County is the northern border of Dajin, close to the grassland barbarians, did something happen?" Liu Litao immediately thought of several possibilities.
"The barbarians on the grassland have gathered about 50,000 cavalrymen from various tribes, planning to march south to Yunshu County to plunder. When the letter was sent, they were already at the gates of the city." Cui Heng slammed the letter on the table and sneered, "These barbarians are so brave!"
Marching south to plunder is killing the people of Fengzhou. Even if it is destroying the new policy he wants to implement, it is also adding obstacles to his practice of collecting the seven emotions of all living beings.
"These barbarians are really hateful!" Liu Litao nodded, "These barbarians on the grassland do not farm, but live a nomadic life, and like to kill. Every late autumn they go south to plunder and massacre the people. They deserve to die!"
Well, "Chen Tong asked me to increase his recruitment quota and lead 30,000 soldiers to attack the barbarians in the north." Cui Heng thought for a while, and nodded, "This is feasible, approved. If this battle is not favorable, I will take action myself."
"Yes, envoy, I will write a letter to reply." Liu Litao saluted respectfully, and then said, "I have another matter to report. The court of the Great Jin Dynasty has sent an envoy who wants to meet you."
