The decline of Taoism...

Liu Heng thought of this and asked in confusion: "Since Taoism has declined, why did my father want me to enter Taoism, and it is the Shangqing lineage that is the worst in Taoism?"

Lao Niu sighed and said: "Young Master, you are well aware of the world today. The academic power is great and the aristocratic families are rampant. If the Holy Spirit suppresses them easily, it would be a deception. It is already a bit out of power, Young Master."

Lao Niu continued to answer: "If you put the young master into the three major sects, that is, among the military, Confucianism and Mohism, the Holy Master is still capable of doing this. However, I am afraid that they will have bad intentions and take the opportunity to spread some knowledge to the young master.

Bad thoughts solidify the young master and lead him astray."

Lao Niu took a sip of tea, hesitated for a moment, and then explained: "The reason why Your Majesty chose Taoism is that, first, Taoism was once a prominent sect and had a rich heritage. As the saying goes, a hundred-footed insect dies but does not freeze, and can bring great benefits to the young master.

Secondly, Taoism is really in decline, and the Holy One can calmly stop it."

Liu Heng picked up the huge wooden tablet, put it on his lap, lowered his head and looked at the scriptures on it, rubbed the writing on it with his fingers, and said: "This wooden tablet was put up by the old man, right?

No wonder he smells so strong of incense and candles, it turns out he really came from a Taoist temple and worships the ancestor all year round."

Liu Heng raised his head, his eyes flashed, and asked: "Butler, in fact, you knew the old man's purpose from the beginning, right?"

Lao Niu quickly replied: "Young Master wrongly blamed the old slave. The old slave only knew that the Holy Master arranged for the young master to deal with Taoism. As for the old man, he prepared to sneak into the young master in such a disgusting way. The old slave

I really don’t know.”

Lao Niu continued to argue: "The old slave only thought that the old man might be from the lineage of the Supreme Pure One when the young master saw through the impure motives of the old man and explained the reasons to the old slave."

"Shangqing lineage?" Liu Heng immediately grasped the key point of Lao Niu's words and asked: "Steward, you mean that you only know that your father arranged for the Shangqing lineage, but you don't know that it is the Shangqing lineage.

Qingyimai Baiyun Temple, do you think what I said is right?"

Lao Niu quickly replied: "Yes, sir."

Liu Heng expressed doubts and asked puzzledly: "Steward, since you don't know it's Baiyun Temple, why did you recognize at a glance that this Heart Seal Sutra is from Baiyun Temple?"

Lao Niu replied: "Sir, this is very simple. It's because the Heart Seal Sutra is really famous. During the Taoist war, Baiyun Temple was very famous for this sutra."

Heng lowered his head and looked at the Heart Seal Miao Sutra again, and asked: "Is this sutra very naughty?"

Lao Niu didn't understand what nb meant, and asked: "Sir, please forgive me for being stupid, but what does nb mean?"

Liu Heng explained: "nb means powerful and precious."

Lao Niu nodded, expressing his understanding, and said solemnly: "This scripture is nb, very precious, and very powerful."

Liu Heng seemed to be doubtful and said with certainty: "Then according to what you say, Baiyun Temple seems to be very sincere in inviting me to Baiyun Temple."

Lao Niu nodded and said: "Judging from the Heart Seal Sutra, Baiyun Temple is indeed like this. Even if the Holy One forces them, as long as they are unwilling and refuse to obey, they will not take out such a precious thing, uh... so...

It’s from nb’s "Yuchen Yuanhuang's Heart Seal Miao Jing"."

Liu Heng smiled slightly and said: "It's interesting, it's really interesting. On the one hand, he wants to sneak into me in that way to disgust me, but on the other hand, he is so generous and seems sincere. Aren't they contradicting themselves?

, they must be acting in a schizophrenic manner.”

Lao Niu remained silent and did not dare to speak.

Liu Heng looked at Lao Niu and asked, "Where is Baiyun Temple?"

Lao Niu replied truthfully: "Young Master, I am next to Dai Guo."

Liu Heng nodded and thought for a while.

Soon after, he shouted out of the car: "Gao Qing, change direction to the northeast, find the location of Baiyun Temple, and tell Ma Xiao and the others by the way."

Gao Qing, who was outside the car, replied: "Here, sir."

…………………………

Three days later, two carriages were riding along the official road.

Liu Heng leaned against the car window, looking at the scenery outside, and sighed to Lao Niu: "It's only late September here, but it's so cool in the north. It's really comfortable."

Lao Niu smiled and replied: "Sir, you may think that the Northeast is very good and suitable now, but by mid-to-late October, it will snow heavily here."

Liu Heng said: "Really?" But he thought in his heart: The climate of this Northeast is not similar to the Northeast of my previous life, it can only be said to be exactly the same.

Lao Niu smiled and nodded, but did not answer. Instead, he took out a large piece of soy beef from the package and cut it. He used the energy in his body to warm the wine, put them together in front of Liu Heng, and said: "Master

, you can eat something to cushion your stomach and enjoy the beautiful scenery."

Liu Heng smiled, picked up a piece of beef with two fingers, put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

After tasting it, his eyes lit up and he asked: "Butler, is this beef with soy sauce brought from the palace?"

Lao Niu smiled and replied: "No, sir, this is the sauced beef we made ourselves when we took the time to make it on the road."

Liu Heng picked up another piece of beef and praised it: "wc, this craftsmanship is good, who made it? Don't tell me that Tian Riguang made it."

Lao Niu shook his head and said: "It's not Tian Huwei who is in charge of the kitchen. Sir, you might as well guess who made it. You will definitely not be able to guess who this person is. It will definitely surprise you."

Liu Heng was not satisfied with the meal, so he grabbed a lot of beef and put it into his mouth to chew. While chewing, he said vaguely: "Really, there are people who I can't guess. Just based on my ability."

The young master is extremely smart, unparalleled in the world, and talented... (omitting ten thousand words here), how could he not guess it with his brain!"

After Liu Heng finished speaking, he felt a little choked. He picked up the wine bottle at hand and blew on the bottle. "Gudong, Gudong, Gudong". After finishing the bottle of wine, he finally felt better.

So, he began to analyze: "First of all, Yang Qi is impossible. He has been with me for many years, and I still don't know what he is like? Secondly, I guessed it was Riguang. Butler, you also answered that it wasn't Tian."

Sunlight, this excludes another person."

He gave the empty jug to Lao Niu, exchanged it for another jug ​​of wine, took a big sip, clapped his fingers, and continued: "Now the only ones left are you, the housekeeper, Gao Qing, Ma Xiao, and Xiao Yu.

There are four of you. First of all, Ma Xiao is impossible. If it were him, he would have sent me this soy beef when he was in Jincheng. This old boy has been floating in the official world for so long, but he is very good at it.

It's charming. So I crossed out one. The second one is Gao Qing. He drives every day. Firstly, he doesn't have time. Secondly, if he makes this beef with soy sauce all night long and stays up all night, and he has to drive the next day, then

Are you kidding me about my safety? He wouldn't dare. You see, another one has been crossed out. The last one is you, the housekeeper. Since you dare to make such a bet with me, there is a high probability that it was not you."

Liu Heng looked at the only remaining finger and said: "Every time you are scheming, you touch and wash, there is only one truth."

He paused and said, "The truth is Xiao Yu."

Lao Niu said: "Young Master is so smart. It was indeed Xiao Yu's doing. When I first found out that it was him who did it, I was shocked. I didn't expect that an arrogant and domineering prodigal could have such a skill."

"Yes," Liu Heng also sighed with emotion: "If I hadn't excluded other people, I wouldn't have dared to imagine that he had such skills. I have to say, what he makes is really delicious."
