Chapter 50 The Righteousness
Lu Zu Chunyang? One of the Eight Immortals? The Sword Immortal Ancestor?
...
Wang Yan stood up from the stone bench with a hint of astonishment on his face and carefully looked at the other party.
I saw this man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his facial features were like a knife, neither fat nor thin, he was wearing a green dress, with a majestic and heroic look.
Just now, I saw him dancing with swords and chanting poems, and he also showed his elegance.
"The benefactor is really called Lu Dongbin?"
There are too many people in the world with the same name and surname. If they only have the same names, it is understandable. However, in the mythological stories, Lu Dongbin's swordsmanship is superb and respected as the leader of the sword immortals in the world. He is also romantic, talented and unruly.
In addition, the world he is in is a mythical world. Before, when Liu Hai cuts woodcuts, the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea will no longer be a legend.
Although he had never seen Lu Dongbin and did not know what he looked like, the handsome temperament of the person in front of him, coupled with his superb swordsmanship, was indeed somewhat similar to the legendary Master Chunyang.
"If you don't change your name in the downward direction, you won't change your surname. It's Lu Dongbin!"
The scholar said firmly.
"What? Is there anything wrong with my name?"
Seeing that Wang Yan was acting strangely, Lu Yan couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Oh! No, the name of the benefactor is so good!"
Wang Yan forced a few smiles and sat down slowly.
If the person in front of me is really Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals, then he is a big shot!
I didn’t expect that I could actually get to know him. How lucky I would be! How destined!
However, judging from the current situation, he obviously has not become an immortal yet, and he knows nothing about the path he will take in the future.
"Brother, I know Mr. Lu's name, but I don't know what your name is yet! I don't know what you call me?"
Wang Yan reacted and quickly introduced himself.
"My name is Wang Yan, and my courtesy name is Tianqing! I studied under Laoshan and sought Taoism for several years. This time I also wanted to go back to my hometown and visit it, and by the way I traveled around the world."
Lu Yan nodded as if he suddenly realized, and then clasped his fists and said with a smile.
"It turns out that it's Brother Wang, I'll be lucky! In the future, Brother Wang should not call me by my benefactor. It sounds awkward, just call me Dongbin."
Wang Yan bowed his hand to return the gift, and he had no choice but to agree.
"It has been three years since Ziwangshi Inn farewell. I wonder how good Brother Lu has always been?"
Although the other party asked him to call him his name, he was his savior after all. It was really hard to speak up. It would not be too much to call him Brother Lu. If he really talks about his seniority, he would still take advantage!
When talking about the past, Lu Yan couldn't help but sigh.
He was originally from a scholarly family and practiced all the civil and military affairs since he was a child. When his parents were alive, he hoped that he could pass the exam and honor his ancestors.
I lived up to expectations. After ten years of hard work, I was full of talent and knowledge. Two years ago, I successfully entered the Laoshan Academy for further study and had excellent grades. I was nominated for the Golden List on the occasion of the spring exam next year and was nominated for the Jinshi.
He was appointed as the magistrate of the seventh rank of Pile County, Yongzhou, and served as a local official for a year. He has seen all the darkness of the officialdom and his intrigue and deception, which is annoying.
In the end, he was so angry that he simply resigned from office and refused to do it. While he was going around, he wanted to go back to his hometown to take a look. Today, he happened to pass by here. He saw it was getting late and had no choice but to stay in this temple.
Unexpectedly, by chance, he actually met Wang Yan.
After hearing what happened to him, Wang Yan couldn't help but respect him. The scholars studied poetry and books hard in order to achieve the Jinshi, get promoted and make money.
He was fine, so he left his job with an iron rice bowl and left.
This personality is indeed one of the Eight Immortals, Lu Dongbin is undoubtedly!
When Wang Yan attended the Scholar Conference before, this person was devoted to studying poetry and books and did not go along with the world. Moreover, there were many people in the Scholar Conference, so he did not see Wang Yan, and the two missed it perfectly.
However, he has read the poems written by Wang Yan.
At present, he is returning to his hometown, and he is also returning to his hometown. In this way, it is really a destined fate by God.
Thinking of this, Wang Yan was also inspired. Isn’t it just for immortality to pursue freedom?
The two of them hit it off at first sight and talked all night long, from their own experiences to their personalities and hobbies, from their views on the court to the general trend of the world, from the sufferings of the people to the prosperity of the world, and finally even talked about the theory of immortality.
When talking about this, Lu Dongbin was even more powerful than Wang Yan. He knew all the Taoist scriptures, magical powers, and legends of immortals.
Now that I have seen through the world and my long-cherished wish in my life is to practice with peace of mind, travel around the world, eliminate violence and keep good deeds, and be a savage wandering around the world.
When asked about the other party’s teachings, Lu Yan just shook his head. The Taoist scriptures and Taoist sects were all his own interests. He read them countless times since he was a child. Over time, he understood such a little method of practice.
The swordsmanship was taught by an old Taoist when he was eighteen years old while studying abroad. He only remembered the old Taoist who claimed to be the Fire Dragon True Person. After passing on the Dharma, he disappeared without a trace.
He himself couldn't figure out which school it was.
Sure enough! Is this the difference between a top student and a poor student?
After reading the Taoist scriptures, people can understand the mystery by themselves and understand the methods of practice by themselves.
On the other hand, I think that there are so many scriptures in Laoshan Sutra Library, what's the use of memorizing them? Isn't it until now that I have learned the truth and found some ways after Master taught the mind.
The two of them were still sleepless until the third update in the middle of the night.
The breeze blows gently, the floating clouds cover the moon, but only two figures remain the same.
"I really benefited a lot from talking to Brother Wang tonight. I am actually a confidant of Lu for his life. There are really too few people in this world who can open up Lu and say what he says."
Even now, I have become ugly, but these two people still have many words that have not been said, which is a pity that they met too late.
"The same is true for me. Brother Lu is admirable in dealing with people and things. He is also knowledgeable and talented. He also has his own unique insights on practicing Taoism. I sigh that I am not as good as me, and I am already impressed by Brother Lu!"
After hearing this, Lu Yan burst into laughter.
"Brother Wang praised it! Mr. Lu can't afford it! You and I hit it off at first sight, and they have similar personalities and have a great conversation. Alas! I have a suggestion here, but I just don't know Brother Wang..."
"Wait! I have a heartless request here, I wonder if it's the same as Brother Lu's thoughts!"
Before the other party could finish speaking, Wang Yan interrupted him on the spot.
"Oh! Then please tell me first, Brother Wang."
Wang Yan immediately said calmly and smiled.
"In ancient times, Liu, Guan, Zhang and Taoyuan's three charity were created, and today I met Brother Lu and I fell in love with each other. Why don't you and I become sworn brothers from different surnames? If you and I have difficulties in the future, they will share the same blessings. I wonder what Brother Lu wants to do?"
When he said this, Lu Yan slapped the table and stood up!
"Hahahaha! I'm just thinking this way, it seems that our brothers are really in tune with each other!"
Although he did not take it seriously, this person kneeled down to thank him as soon as he saw him, which shows that he was a kind and righteous person.
With a lot of talk, both sides have a heart of freedom in the world and a desire to save the world. With these two points, it is enough to have a deep friendship.
Both of them had this meaning, so they naturally stopped beating around the bush. Immediately, the two of them looked for incense and candles in the temple, and vowed to the sky to form a feud.
Lu Yanchang, Wang Yan, was seven years old, so he was naturally a brother.
