Unparalleled Concubine

"Also, poor Taoists brought medicine."

Chapter 581 Trading Immortals

Ordinary Taoist priests are more or less able to cure some diseases, because they are thinking about ascending to heaven in the mountains, so naturally they must first understand medicine, and they cannot practice blindly, otherwise they may really ascend to heaven.

The meaning of this old guy is also very obvious. He wants Li Xin to admit his identity as "Chunyang Zhenren Junior Brother". As long as Li Xin admits, he will lead people to help Li Xin treat the wounded soldiers.

Only then did Li Xin look at the old man squarely, he jumped off his horse, walked up to the old Taoist priest, and asked, "Have you been watching this Marquis for a long time?"

Since they knew about Li Xin's current distress, it was obvious that they hadn't just arrived in the Southwest, and they probably had been following Li Xin for a long time.

And depending on the situation, the so-called "Yiyangzi" Taoist name of this old Taoist priest is mostly fake, and it is purely for the sake of getting along with "Chunyang Zhenren".

The old Taoist said frankly: "I have been with Lord Hou for a while. Lord Hou loves soldiers like sons. The poor Taoist admires them very much. Therefore, during this time, the disciples have obtained a lot of medicinal materials for curing injuries. We are almost at Mianzhu now."

Li Xin grinned.

"If it's convenient for the Taoist priest, let's go to the city to talk?"

The old Taoist said with a smile: "Jing'an Hou Ye is a hero in the world, and the poor are extremely honored."

Li Xin turned around, smiled at Zhao Jia and said, "Brother You'an, go arrange a meal, and I'll treat the old Taoist priest to have a few drinks."

Zhao Jia didn't hear what the old Taoist said to Li Xin just now, but after hearing Li Xin's words, he nodded immediately, bowed his head and said, "Your subordinate will make arrangements."

In this way, Li Xin did not rush to Jincheng, but returned to Mianzhu City, and set up a banquet in the county government office of Mianzhu.

Li Xin deliberately asked Zhao Jia to set up a meat table, and after the old Taoist was seated, he didn't shy away from the table full of wine and meat, and ate happily in front of Li Xin.

Li Xin took a sip of his wine and asked with a smile, "Where did the old Taoist come from?"

"Mount Zhongnan."

The old Taoist wiped the oil from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and said to Li Xin with a smile: "It's a coincidence, it's from the same place as the real Chunyang Master Li Hou met."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Does the old priest know how to palm thunder?"

The old Taoist shook his head in a very lonely way, and said: "If you know how to palm thunder, the poor Taoist would not have to go through all kinds of hardships to come here and beg to see Lord Hou."

Li Xin said with a smile: "May I ask what the name of the old priest is?"

"It used to be called Yin Guan, but it won't be called this name anymore."

The old Taoist said with a smile: "From today on, the old Taoist is called Yiyangzi."

"As long as Lord Hou is willing to speak, the old Taoist will be Chunyang Zhenren's junior in the future."

Li Xin blinked his eyes, and then asked: "Since the old Taoist priest settled in a Taoist holy place like Zhongnan Mountain, and there are many disciples, he was famous before he came here. Yang Zhenren's name?"

"Pindao used to be the head of the Taiyi Palace in Zhongnanshan, and he worked hard all his life, but the incense in the Taiyi Palace was fading day by day. It wasn't until he heard about Chunyang Zhenren's deeds two months ago that the old man made up his mind to make this move."

Speaking of this, the old Taoist smiled at Li Xin and said: "It doesn't matter whether the real Chunyang is true or not, but it is absolutely true that Lord Hou captured Mianzhu, and Lord Hou even reported it to the court. In the future, this real person of Chunyang is destined to be written into the history books and become a god."

The old man was all smiles.

"At that time, if I don't come to Taiyi Palace to fight, Longhushan will also come to find Hou Ye. Since Hou Ye said that this Chunyang real person comes from Zhongnan Mountain, it is better for the old way to invite this fairy into Zhongnan Mountain Tai in advance. Palace B."

In his previous life, Li Xin had been to Zhongnan Mountain, and vaguely remembered that there was indeed a Taiyi Palace on the mountain, but it was just the name of a Taoist temple. Unexpectedly, in this world, there really was a sect called Taiyi Palace .

The meaning of this Yiyangzi is obvious. After Li Xin's bragging about the real Chunyang, and after going through the folklore, it is likely to be a certainty in the future, so he wants to recruit the real Chunyang as soon as possible. Under the gate of Taiyi Palace, by the way, catch the heat and become Chunyang Zhenren's junior.

The old Taoist's face was red.

"If Lord Hou appreciates the face, Pindao will really become a yangzi. Hundreds of years later, Pindao may follow the chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven and become a fairy."

Li Xin glanced at the old Taoist priest in surprise.

"The Taoist priest is a person from outside Fang, why do you care so much about vulgar things like fame?"

Yiyangzi let out a long sigh, and said with a wry smile: "Master Hou is not in charge of the family, so he doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are."

"When the Taiyi Palace was passed from the former master to the poor Taoist, there were thousands of disciples who practiced on the mountain alone, and countless others practiced at home. When they came to the poor Tao, the disciples gradually withered. There are only two or three hundred people left, and if this continues, they will gradually wither."

In fact, this is a general trend.

In the past, Taiyi Palace was prosperous because the royal family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty in the north and the royal family of the Southern Han Dynasty in the southwest both worshiped Taoism. More than 30 years ago, after the Great Jin Dynasty ruled the world, these two royal families disappeared.

As a later generation, the Dajin royal family tended to believe in Buddhism.

Therefore, Taoism inevitably began to weaken.

Li Xin glanced at the old Taoist indifferently, and finally said slowly: "How many people did the old Taoist bring to Mianzhu?"

"Everything that can be brought down from the mountain has been brought down."

Yiyangzi lowered his eyebrows and said: "As long as Master Hou agrees, Pindao will immediately let them come into the city to treat diseases and save people with Master Hou's disciples. The medicines raised by our sect this time are not enough for Master Hou to use, at least they can relieve the pain." Lord Hou's urgent need."

Li Xin lowered his head and thought for a while.

Religious power is a force that should not be underestimated. If it is used well, it may become a boost in the future.

Moreover, the stalk of Chunyang Zhenren was unknowingly hyped into a popular "IP" by him. If he uses it well, it is very likely that a declining sect like Taiyi Palace will enter the court and become his future support. .

Now, Li Xin has all the right to interpret the character Chunyang Zhenren, and he can say whatever he wants.

Thinking of this, Li Xin glanced at Yiyangzi with a smile.

"Old Taoist priest, from today onwards, you will be Master Chunyang's junior."

The old Taoist's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Master Hou, that Master Chunyang's palm thunder, can Master Hou teach you the poor way?"

Lord Jing'an's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "How can I, a layman, be able to do that kind of fairy trick?"

"Besides, it's better for the old Taoist master not to know it. If you don't have the body of a fairy like the real Chunyang, if you learn the palm thunder, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to your Taiyi Palace."

Lord Jing'an lowered his eyebrows and said.

"The old Daoist quickly took the disciples to treat the injuries of my subordinates. We will talk about the specific matters after Ben Hou returns from Jincheng."

Yiyangzi got up and bowed his head to Li Xin.

"Pin Dao obeys."

Chapter 582 Dare to Gamble?

At present, Li Xin doesn't know much about these people from Taiyi Palace in Zhongnan Mountain. He needs to send someone to confirm whether these people are serious Taoist priests before they can cooperate in the next step.

However, at present, Li Xin urgently needs the medicinal materials in the hands of these people. Even if it is an expedient measure, it will not do any harm to Li Xin if he agrees to it for the time being.
