"If it doesn't work, let's draw a prize. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to find a group that matches your mental state."
"Shabi."
Well, how should I put it, the last person’s wording does seem a bit harsh.
Zhang Mu flipped through the comments section and continued watching the video.
The following content is not very interesting. Like the first half, its core is to prove that Xuxianren fits the general understanding of the Chinese people about their own gods.
For the people.
At the end, A Pozhu concluded, "What is immortality? This is immortality."
This old lady's opinion is basically the mainstream opinion on this matter on the Internet.
There are some objections, but there is not much market or audience.
After all, there is also the "magic medicine" in the mountains outside Su City to support the evidence.
Zhang Mu turned off the screen, put his phone back into his inventory, and looked at the municipal building not far ahead: "It's time to get busy."
……
Director's Office.
There was an altar in the corner, with a sword rest in the middle, on which the Moonlight Sword rested. On either side were fruits, chickens, ducks, and candles with flickering flames, and in front was an incense burner with three incense sticks emitting faint smoke.
This was built by Luo Xiling.
Compared with the previous ones, it is not only more formal, the offerings and utensils are more complete, and the materials used are also extraordinary.
Just the wooden table is made of priceless red sandalwood and is carefully crafted by national-level craftsmen.
Luo Xiling stroked the smooth lacquer surface of the table legs with satisfaction: "Lao Xu, if you have something, you can get me a small-leaf red sandalwood table."
"You are so disrespectful, call me Chief!"
Behind the desk, the director, who was busy at his work, refuted loudly, but Luo Xiling was not afraid.
After a few months of dealing with him, she had already figured out the director of the Special Investigation Bureau.
"Oh~ Uncle Director!"
The director felt goose bumps all over his body: "Stop, stop, stop, if you do this again, move all your things to your own dormitory."
Luo Xiling pursed her lips.
The room was quiet for a while, and he raised his head: "I wonder if your gesture will work?"
"Sure!" She said with a straight face, "I have read a lot of ancient books. The famous sword has spirits. I can't be wrong!"
After taking a look at the altar, the director sighed and shook his head.
They are just little gadgets, let them be. Alas... the trouble lies over at the gate of Xuxian Mountain.
Ye Ming led the search across the country for several months, but without any results or even any clues, they found nothing.
The last time I met Asahi, he said it was "soon", but it turned out that...
The director's brows suddenly tightened.
He realized that he seemed to have misunderstood some concepts.
In the eyes of ordinary people, a few months is not a short time. After all, there are only a few months in a lifetime.
But Xuxianren is not an ordinary person.
That person is the one who sits on the top of the mountain and watches the vicissitudes of the world.
For him, “soon” means months, years, or decades?
What the hell!
The director jumped up suddenly and slammed his hands on the desk: "If it's hundreds of years, why would I bother?"
"What do you mean by hundreds of years?" Luo Xiling, who was kneeling devoutly in front of the altar with her palms clasped together, turned around and asked blankly when she heard his exclamation.
After expressing his thoughts, the director said, "What if it is true..."
"That's impossible." Luo Xiling stood up and sat on the sofa against the wall. "Master is not a fool. How could he ignore such an important matter?"
"Have you ever seen an immortal before?" The director's face darkened.
"No."
"Then how do we know that immortals will not forget things?"
"Xu's memory is pretty good."
The two were stunned for a moment, then turned their heads to look at the door. The immortal Xu in white clothes walked slowly towards them with a smile.
The director, accustomed to his elusive appearances, quickly came to his senses: "It's what you've been waiting for!"
"Master!"
Seeing Luo Xiling running over crying, with tears just about to come out of her nose, Zhang Mu almost couldn't hold it in: "Stop!"
Looking at Xuxianren's fluctuating eyes, the director was extremely shocked.
Unexpectedly, even the Xuxian people would be frightened by this not-so-smart girl.
Yes, is it possible for someone in his right mind to go to the mountains alone and climb the mountains with bare hands without any protective equipment?
Here, Asahi Immortal held his right hand in front of his mouth and said, "Ahem... have you been okay lately?"
"Okay." The two of them were actually not having a good time and each had their own troubles, but they didn't dare to complain.
"Haha, I know."
"Uh, Asahi-sennin means..."
"We are going down the mountain this time on the orders of our master. The mountain gate will soon be opened. Have you made any plans?"
"It's done!" They said in unison, with a high tone and eagerness.
"Then." Immortal Xu stroked his right hand, and twenty crystal jade pendants were lined up and floated in the air in front of him. "This is proof, remember it."
Luo Xiling didn't react much, she had already passed this level.
The director was very nervous, his eyes were as big as bells.
Then my eyes started to sore and tears came to my mind, and I picked up the phone on the table and “clicked—clicked”.
He turned around and put his phone into the safe, then turned around and asked, "Xu Xianren, what is your sect's name?"
"The mountain gate."
"I know. I mean, the specific name."
"The mountain gate."
"Oh, it's called Shanmen?"
"It is also."
Walking around the desk from the side and approaching it, the director stared at the floating jade pendant.
He had a toothache when selecting twenty people from all over the country: "Hiss...Xuxianren, can you give me some information about the distribution of the candidates?"
"What's wrong?"
"Well, to avoid causing a riot among the people, we have to gather the jade pendant winners."
As he said this, the director secretly glanced at Xu Xianren's face, worried that his meaning was misunderstood.
“At that time, there will be a vision.”
"What vision?"
"You can see it."
The director's teeth hurt even more.
When I watched strategy-themed costume dramas in the past, I always felt that the mysterious verbal instructions were very much like those of a master.
He subconsciously ignored the person who was being pointed at, who looked confused and was impatiently trying to guess the deeper meaning of the instructions.
Now it was his turn, and he felt the same way - could he speak human language?
He wanted to ask more, but the figure of Xuxianren disappeared on the spot.
Rubbing his teeth, the director whispered, "Does Asahi-sen always speak in such a profound way?"
"I feel fine." Luo Xiling, who tried to communicate with her master but failed, continued to worship Yueming Sword unhappily.
"When I met Master at the top of the mountain, he was quite talkative. He even used Internet slang the next day."
You are his chosen disciple, can it be the same?
The director just wanted to ask if he had a chance to get the jade pendant.
But Xuxianren walked too fast. While he was still considering his words and how to start a conversation, he disappeared.
Leaving Luo Xiling busy with her own things, he sat back in the wooden chair behind his desk and called Ye Ming, Yue Ruo and Zhao Qi.
Yue Ruo and Zhao Qi came in, teased Luo Xiling for a few words, and then went to the director to ask what was going on.
"Wait for Ye Ming."
A few minutes later, Ye Ming walked in with a breeze, "Director, Brother Zhao, Sister Yue."
Hey, Xiao Luo is still worshipping?"
"Leave her alone."
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the director repeated what Xu Xianren had told him and said, "I am now worried about finding someone.
You said China is so big, how can we find people in such a short time?"
After listening, Ye Ming clenched his fists, looking a little excited: "Don't be afraid.
The intelligence network that the Bureau of Investigation has deployed to survey schools and remote areas across the country has not yet been recovered, so it’s just right for us to use it!”
Yue Ruo also advised: "Besides, didn't Immortal Xu say that there were strange visions that we could see?
Besides, the domestic situation is very stable, and the public generally has a positive view of the extraordinary. Even if the anomaly appears in a busy city, it will not cause any trouble."
"It's best."
