The explosion of bamboos scares the spring, and the competition is noisy. Thousands of people play flutes and drums at night. On New Year's Eve, even early in the morning, every household in Taixuan Jingzhong has already set off firecrackers. It is said that the sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu!

In many Dafu dynasties, the Tianguan Festival and the Spring Festival are the most important festivals.

Saying farewell to the old year and welcoming the new year always has many beautiful meanings for the people in Taixuan Jingzhong. In addition to setting off firecrackers, many people will also hang lanterns and put on couplets to say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new year. It is inevitable to have a reunion dinner at night.

, completely transcending the old year.

Early in the morning.

Sheng Zi and Lu Jing had already left Taixuanjing on horseback. Lu Jing originally invited Sheng Zi to the courtyard yesterday, but when Sheng Zi accompanied Su Zhao yesterday, Princess Anqing went to Dongwang Temple together and did not catch up with Xiao

gather.

It wasn't until Ning Qiang came to Kongshan Lane half an hour after Lu Yi left that Lu Jing originally wanted to invite her to sit in the courtyard.

Shengzi wanted to go with Lu Jing to visit Taixuanjing, which was about to close in the new year.

The two walked along the banks of the Zhutai River and chatted for a long time. Shengzi also mentioned that he was going to the Jokhang Temple tomorrow morning to pray for his father who was in the court and his brother who was outside.

Lu Jing had wanted to go to the Jokhang Temple to see his uncle Lu Chongshan a long time ago.

So we made an appointment early this morning.

Shengzi rides a white horse. The white horse looks quite strong. Although there is no sparkle in its eyes, when it runs, its blood is boiling and its bones and muscles are very strong. It is a BMW that can travel thousands of miles a day.

This white horse is naturally the famous horse Su Hei that Lu Jing has seen before.

Under Lu Jing's body was another horse that Shengzi brought out from Cifu's house.

This horse's hair is jet black, its posture is vigorous, and the energy and blood contained in its body is far less than that of a plain heel, but it is not an ordinary horse. It is not too much to call it a good horse.

Lu Jing has actually never ridden a horse.

But his cultivation has reached the Great Yang realm, and his control over his own body and his grasp of balance have become much stronger.

The good black horse had also been trained extremely well. When Lu Jing got on the horse, the energy and blood in his body enveloped the black horse, and the black horse became more and more docile.

A black horse and a white horse, paired with a white dress and a red dress, running on the road to the Jokhang Temple, is a beautiful sight.

On New Year's Eve, not many people from Taixuanjing went to the Jokhang Temple.

In Dafu Buddhism, the future Maitreya Buddha is born today, so temples all over the world will also celebrate the New Year.

Many ordinary people who believe in Buddhism are naturally happy to go to temples today to seek stability for the coming year.

Lu Jing never thought that Shengzi was a Buddhist. "I was quite naughty when I was a child. I always asked my brother, who was a few years older than me, to take me to the Jokhang Temple, Dongwang Temple and several famous academies outside the city.

At that time, I saw many people worshiping Buddha, cultivating Taoism, and studying. Girls’ minds always imitate others.

Now that he has grown up, his father is in court and wants to realize his ambitions.

My brother has been in the martial arts for a long time and wants to cultivate martial arts and become a famous general with martial arts.

I couldn't do anything to help them, so I simply went to Jokhang Temple and Dongwang Temple to pray for them.

If there really is an omnipotent Buddha, if there really is an East Prince, maybe he can protect them."

His appearance is quite free and easy, with long hair reaching his waist, the ends of which are tied up at will. The red dress on his body is a long spring brocade dress with eight haloes, paired with a shawl with blue clouds and cloud patterns, and light rouge.

The upper lip is red, which makes her look glamorous and a bit heroic.

She bluntly said that she was not too religious in Buddhism, and she didn’t know what Taoism followed nature. Anyway, she had already been to Dongwang Temple yesterday, and the New Year’s Eve reunion dinner was at night. She had nothing to do during the day, so she went to pay homage to the Jokhang Temple.

Great Tibetan Buddha.

If we can get the Buddha and the protection of the Eastern King in exchange, it would be the best.

Lu Jing still had a smile on his face when he heard Sheng Zi's candid answer.

Although this rich daughter of Mr. Cifu's family sometimes seemed a little graceful and gentle in front of him.

But most of the time, her majestic appearance is still heroic and relaxed, which is quite different from other ladies in Xuandu.

The Jokhang Mountain where the Jokhang Temple is located is not far from Taixuanjing.

The distance was only twelve miles. Because of this, the two of them walked in no hurry. The two horses walked side by side, walking slowly on the official road.

It is not just the two of them on the official road. We often see many sedan chairs coming and going, and we can also see many masters and ladies going to the Jokhang Temple to pray.

Naturally, there are some Confucian scholars among them. In addition to the disciples of the library, there are also students from the Imperial Academy and other academies in Xuandu.

And all these students knew Lu Jing.

Lu Jing's cursive calligraphy has been popular in Xuandu a long time ago, and he was also a two-story library gentleman with a high status in the eyes of scholars.

But a few days ago, Li Yushi, Li Guanlong's third brother, sent people to attack Lu Jing, but Lu Jing, an already famous spiritual genius, chased him with a sword, and finally died on Wulong Street.

This incident caused a sensation, and what is even more incredible is that after killing someone, Lu Jing calmly walked into the Taixuan Palace, took part in the palace examination, and won three examinations. Many people in Dafu called him the leader of the youth.

In the court, even Li Guanlong of the Shaozhu Kingdom asked the Holy King to pardon Lu Jing according to the great law because he cherished his talent... Although these things were not a secret in the ears of the disciples of the mansion.

Therefore, along the way, many people would see Lu Jing and get off their sedans and horses to salute Lu Jing.

Lu Jing always smiled and nodded in return.

Shengzi looked at Lu Jing beside him, feeling a little dazed.

"I still remember that not long ago, you were studying among rockeries and flowing water under the scorching sun.

It has only been half a year now, but you have already become the leader of the Dafu youths, and all Dafu houses will soon know your name."

Shengzi looked at Lu Jing's side face. His handsome face was paired with a pair of bright and deep eyes, which sometimes flashed with a calm look...

She watched Lu Jing become more and more brilliant all the way, and she had been looking at this face for a long time, so she didn't realize how fresh it was. But even now, she is still amazed by Lu Jing's face and even his own unique temperament.

Two people and two horses climbed up the Jokhang Mountain.

Walking in the breeze in the mountains, Shengzi suddenly felt very happy.

"Fortunately, I mentioned the trip to Jokhang Temple to Lu Jingshuo yesterday, otherwise I would have missed such a good opportunity and the beautiful scenery on the mountain."

The scenery of Jokhang Mountain is indeed very beautiful.

There are only clouds and mist on the not-so-high mountains.

The unmelted white snow in the distance is even more beautiful when paired with the independent pines and cypresses.

The mountains are stacked on top of each other and the peaks stand tall, giving it a sense of majesty here.

The entire Jokhang Mountain is actually a temple. The streams are flowing, the waves are vast, and there are valleys below, making it a famous mountain and river.

The two of them strolled leisurely in the mountains.

Even Lu Jing felt that the scene at this moment was particularly beautiful.

But……

Nan Heyu, who was also on another peak of the Jokhang Mountain, lowered his head and looked at the scenery and grandeur coming from a distance on horseback. Seeing the two chatting and laughing, he felt more regretful about coming to the Jokhang Temple today for no reason.

Next to her was Nan Ting's adopted son Nan Yue Xiang. Nan Yue Xiang looked as taciturn as ever, wearing black clothes and a dull expression.

In fact, it was Nan Yue Xiang who discovered Lu Jing and Sheng Zi. When Nan He Yu heard Nan Yue Xiang speak, he lowered his head and looked at the boulevard from a very far distance.

For some reason, even now, Nan Heyu is still quite... afraid of meeting Lu Jing.

I always felt that Lu Jing had suffered a lot of grievances due to many things in the past, but he had not played any role in this matter, and to some extent, he had even become the perpetrator.

And now... Lu Jing is becoming more and more outstanding, which is enough to prove that he has been a hidden pearl from the beginning. This also makes Nan Heyu more and more confused about how to face Lu Jing.

"Being in the dirt, but being able to break out of the ground and turn into a towering tree, a seed that takes root in the world is truly worthy of admiration."

Nanyue Xiang also lowered his head and looked at Lu Jing, with a clear look in his eyes.

admire.

He didn't have many interactions with Lu Jing. The closest he got to Lu Jing was probably in the atrium of Jingyin Mansion. At that time, Lu Jing showed his glory, took off the shackles of his blood, and became free.

After that, this adopted son, who was actually in charge of many properties of the Duke of Nanguo, gradually became aware of Lu Jing's efforts to get rid of the Lu family's cage.

After that, Lu Jingduan sat in the calligraphy and calligraphy academy of the library, teaching, and building a great reputation step by step.

How can a person trapped in chains not admire a young man riding a horse with a sword?

Nan Heyu also noticed the approval in Nan Yuexiang's eyes. She hesitated for a moment, then turned to look behind her and asked, "Grandpa, haven't you come out yet?"

Today, Nan He Yu and Nan Yue Xiang came to the Jokhang Temple to accompany Nan Lao Guo Gong to see his deceased wife.

The reason why Nanlao Guogong did not believe in Buddhism and came to the Jokhang Temple many times was because the Anger Abbot of the Jokhang Temple was his good friend.

However, the Duke's wife had fasted and chanted Buddha's name for a long time during his lifetime, hoping to eliminate the guilt of the old Duke's murder.

After her death, Duke Nan Laoguo buried her on the Jokhang Mountain in accordance with her last wishes.

On New Year's Eve, according to the custom of Dafu, the people did not go to the grave to mourn. However, Nan Laoguo would come here even on an ordinary day to say a word in front of this not-so-glorious tomb.

Today, Nan He Yu and Nan Yue Xiang are here to accompany Nan Lao Guo Gong.

"We just entered not long ago, it may still take some time." Nan Yuexiang replied, then turned around, looked at Nan Heyu seriously, shook his head and said: "Heyu, in the world, there are many things that are beyond your control.

In fact, you don’t need to care too much about the past.”

Nan Yue Xiang said it seriously, so Nan Heyu also nodded seriously.

She moved her fingertips lightly, and a ray of wind and rain sword energy lingered in it, shining brightly.
