After the Lishui faction caused a shock, Gu Zuo left without any further delay. It was already early December, and he needed to rush to Chang'an immediately to try to prevent the possible war. Although so far, he felt that he

Some of the worries are unfounded.

At Tang Fengchuan at the junction of the north and south of Yongchang, the head of Qingyuan County was already waiting here. When he saw Gu Zuo, he chuckled: "I want to go back to see my mother, but I told him that you don't agree."

Gu Zuo said silently: "I'm not unkind, it's just that his status is different. If I go back at this time, I'm in danger of being detained by the court."

The Lord of Qingyuan County hurriedly said: "I told him that after achieving the golden elixir and then returning home with a sword, this is what a man should do. He is a sensible child and he knows what to do."

Seeing that Gu Zuo was not in a good mood, he asked again: "I have heard something about the mobilization of the Southern Wu Army...is it really that serious?"

Gu Zuo shook his head: "I don't know either, I'm just prepared. I hope I'm worrying too much."

Qingyuan County Lord lowered his head: "It's a pity that as the County Lord, I can't help you with anything."

Gu Zuo smiled: "Isn't this helpful? Come on, let me see how you fly."

The Lord of Qingyuan County happily threw the flying sword and led Gu Zuo straight into the blue sky. The wind whistled in her ears. She said loudly: "I have been practicing flying hard for half a year since I came to Southern Wuzhou. Mr. Jin said that I am ready to fly."

!”

"Flying well." Gu Zuo encouraged her loudly behind her ear.

"Would you like to go faster?" Qingyuan turned around and asked.

Their eyes met, and they were very close. After being stunned for a long time, Gu Zuo pointed in front: "Be careful, the mountain!"

Qingyuan quickly turned around and exclaimed: "Ah——" The flying sword turned sharply and passed diagonally across the top of the mountain.

Gu Zuo couldn't stand still and put his hands around Qingyuan's waist. Qingyuan's body trembled and his ears turned red. He was like a clay puppet and he didn't dare to move.

Gu Zuo continued in her ear: "You can go slower and more steadily."

Qingyuan was in a daze as if he didn't hear it. The flying sword kept its speed and flew past the valley.

Sometimes I avoid the hilltop on the left and sway to the right...

Sometimes I give way to the hilltop on the right and dodge to the left...

Or climbing rapidly over the top of a mountain, lifting up and then lowering down...

Gu Zuo hugged the slender waist in front of him with both arms, not daring to relax at all, and he didn't want to relax either. It felt fleshy, and it was both exciting and comfortable while flying at high speed.

He suddenly remembered the past when he was taken away by Lingyuan Taoist Priest and Butcher. It was really unbearable to look back. No wonder Luo looked at him strangely.

That night, the two of them slept in the wilderness, looking back and forth at each other against the backdrop of the campfire.

The head of Qingyuan County kept thinking: "Will he...will he or not..."

Gu Zuo has been thinking: "Do the Twelve Mothers agree... Agree or disagree..."

Think about it all night.

After dawn, the two of them had a tacit understanding and continued on the road as they had done yesterday. The closer they got to Beijing, the more reluctant they became. However, the road could not go on forever. What was supposed to come would always come. Ahead was Zhongnan Mountain.

After the Lord of Yuan County put Gu Zuo down, he left with great reluctance.

Gu Zuo calmed down and went to the mountain gate to ask for an audience with the great mage Li Mi. With his current status, he could request an audience with senior figures in the Chongxuan Department at any time.

Unfortunately, Li Mi was not in Zhongnan Mountain. When Gu Zuo asked about his whereabouts, the Taoist priest could not tell him. Gu Zuo also wanted to see several other great masters, but only the great master Daoxuan was there.

Daoxuan was painting, and Gu Zuo had been waiting in the hall for a long time. Daoxuan put away his pen and said to Gu Zuo: "I'm sorry for the neglect. Master Gu, I'm sorry for going up the mountain this time. What's the matter?"

Gu Zuoji explained his intention and asked: "I have asked Taoist Priest Lingyuan to forward a letter to inform you. I wonder if the Archmage knows about it?"

Daoxuan asked: "I know a little bit, but where is my faith?"

Gu Zuo replied: "It has been submitted to Master Li."

So Daoxuan shook his head: "I have never seen it before."

Gu Zuo asked again: "Jiannan Jiedu's demands are too much, and he doesn't know what the Chongxuan Department will do?"

Daoxuan still shook his head: "This matter is an official matter of the court, and I don't know how to deal with it."

Gu Zuo explained: "Although it is an official matter for the court, in the land of Nanzhao, the sect is the Zhao country, and the Zhao country is the sect."

Daoxuan replied: "Then what belongs to the sect shall belong to the sect, and what belongs to the state of Zhao shall belong to the state of Zhao."

Gu Zuo couldn't help but panicked, but when he saw Daoxuan still looking calm and calm, he knew that today was probably in vain. Also, although he was one of the several great mages in charge of the affairs of Chongxuan Department, Li Micai

He is the one who really has the final say. For such a big matter, Daoxuan will definitely not express his position easily. He should go to Li Bi.

It would be foolish to ask Li Mi when he would be back in front of Daoxuan. Gu Zuo did not ask, so he had to leave and asked the Taoist priest in the guest hall to visit Yu Yuanzhi.

When I returned to Zhongnan Mountain last time, I came and went in a hurry, and this time I finally saw it. Yu Yuanzhi has reached the late stage of Jindan. As a mage, he belongs to the middle and upper-level Taoist priests of Chongxuan Department. He lives in a Taoist temple under the alchemy platform.

middle.

He hadn't seen each other for many years. When he saw Yu Yuanzhi, Gu Zuo felt strange for a moment and didn't know where to start.

"Xiao Gu is here? Yes, the foundation building is in the late stage? Or is it complete?"

"It's complete, just waiting for enlightenment."

"Okay, back then in Sanyuan Palace, you were just a Qi practitioner who had just started practicing, and now you have become the master of a large sect. When I think about it occasionally, it feels like I am in a dream."

"It's all thanks to the Taoist Priest's protection back then, otherwise Gu Zuo would never be here today."

"How much can I protect you? You should work hard on your own."

"When I came to Beijing this spring, I went to Chongxuan Office to visit the Taoist priest, but the Taoist priest came to Zhongnan Mountain. Later, when I went to Zhongnan Mountain, I couldn't see the Taoist priest, so I missed it. I had heard that the Taoist priest had made great progress in cultivation, and today I finally

I can present the congratulatory gift. To be honest with the Taoist priest, this congratulatory gift is a specialty of Southern Wu Prefecture, and it has been stored in my storage artifact for more than half a year."

Yu Yuanzhi looked at the bag with a smile, took out the eight demon pills inside, and returned the remaining spirit stones: "I have use for the demon pills, so I accepted them shamelessly. Forget the spirit stones. It's not easy for you now. I

There is no shortage either.”

Seeing this posture, Gu Zuo knew that the Taoist priests of Chongxuan Department really had no shortage of spiritual stones now, and they were not pretentious, so he took the bag back.

Yu Yuanzhi took the initiative and asked: "Xiao Gu, your master Gu went up the mountain today. Is he here for something?"

Gu Zuodao: "I want to visit Master Li Mi, but I heard that he is not in the mountain."

Yu Yuanzhi nodded: "He and several of the great masters are not here. Now it is the great master Daoxuan who is in charge of the chores on the mountain. However, the great master Daoxuan's temperament is also indifferent. He likes to paint and realize the Tao in the paintings. Fortunately

The affairs of the world have been entrusted to you eighteen princes. There is no big deal in Chongxuan Department now. They are all busy. Many uncles, uncles, brothers and brothers have taken the opportunity to retreat. Why, are you in trouble? "

Gu Zuo then talked about the tax issue and said, "Brother, look, how should we deal with this matter?"

Yu Yuanzhi said: "You can deal with it however you want."

Gu Zuo was confused: "What do you mean?"
