The so-called master is none other than the great master Xu Hua!
I never expected that Xu Hua would come to Chang'an, and I didn't receive any news at all.
It had been six years since we last met, and Xu Hua looked much older than before.
But the heroic spirit between his eyebrows is still there, intertwined with the kind heart he developed after practicing Buddhism, giving him a unique temperament.
For Xu Hua, Bai Song truly recognized him as his master.
Although there is no apprenticeship ceremony, there is no verbal agreement.
But the longer time passed, the more grateful Bai Song felt towards Xu Hua.
To say that coming to this era brought the greatest benefit to Bai Song was not the mysterious space, nor the knowledge accumulated over thousands of years, but the skills that Xu Hua taught him as a great master.
The skill of a great master cannot be exchanged for space, nor can it be filled with knowledge.
This skill saved Bai Song countless times. In many life-and-death situations, he relied on this skill to save Bai Song from danger.
This skill allows Bai Song to face anyone with a high profile and not be afraid of anyone. It is the foundation for him to stand upright in this world.
Without this skill, Bai Song might have been hiding in the mountains and forests with his wife and children, living an isolated life.
Xu Hua gave Bai Song the foundation to live at ease in the world, so Bai Song felt infinite gratitude in his heart.
Even now, Bai Song still follows the agreement and builds a pagoda every month.
Bai Song also wanted to go over and meet Xu Hua, but he thought that he was devoted to practicing Buddhism, so visiting by himself might be an intrusion.
Therefore, I have not had any contact with Xu Hua in these years. I only occasionally heard about Xu Hua from Youzhou messages.
Xu Hua has been practicing Buddhism in Youzhou without any movement.
Coming to Chang'an suddenly is really surprising.
What is even more surprising is that Xu Hua is actually Xuanzang's junior brother.
What is this?
At this time, Bai Song remembered that Xu Hua's Dharma name was Xuan Pu, and that he and Xuanzang were both descendants of the Xuan family. When he thought about it, there was actually a connection from the beginning.
With so many thoughts in his mind, Bai Song was stunned for a long time before he rushed over.
The surrounding black-armored soldiers became nervous and displayed their weapons in unison. The number one in front of him also grabbed Bai Song.
However, Bai Song's words "Master" also made everyone confused.
"Master Bai, what did you say just now?" Qin Yuxiao asked blankly.
"Let me go, it's okay, this is my mentor."
"..." No. 1 swallowed in amazement.
"What? Grand Master Xu Hua is Master Bai's mentor?" Qin Yuxiao opened her mouth wide, "This... this is the most important criminal in the imperial court who has assassinated the emperor!"
"Why are you so nervous? Do you think I will assassinate the emperor just because I am a disciple of the great master? How many years has it happened?"
Bai Song asked back.
Qin Yuxiao looked at No. 1.
Everyone knew that Bai Song was a popular figure around the emperor, and with Bai Song's connections in the capital, how could he possibly assassinate the emperor?
If he wants to assassinate the emperor, he has countless opportunities.
After thinking about it, No. 1 let go of his hand, and Bai Song hurried to Xu Hua.
Bai Song was a little excited and didn't know what to say. He rubbed his hands, but Xu Hua spoke first.
"Donor, you are fine."
"Master, you..."
"Donor, when did the old monk become your master?"
"The grace of imparting kung fu can be compared to the teachings of a master. At first, I didn't know the kindness of the master. Over the years, I relied on the master's teachings to save the day. The master does not recognize the apprentice, but the apprentice must recognize the master."
Xu Hua smiled, and the old monk nodded with kind eyes.
Bai Song had many things to say to his master, but Xuanzang came up and said, "Junior brother, it's getting late, it's time to enter the palace to meet the saint."
After hearing such a sentence, Bai Song remembered it and asked: "What is the purpose of master entering the palace to meet the saint?"
Xu Hua first bowed to Xuanzang, and then said to Bai Song: "Today is a bit urgent. I will explain it to you in detail after I have brought him to see the emperor."
"I follow..."
"As for today's matter, the donor should not go. There are some things that I must explain clearly to the emperor alone."
Bai Song frowned, unable to refute, and could only watch the two monks, one old and one young, enter the palace.
…
The appearance of Xu Hua completely disrupted Bai Song's thoughts.
I had no time to pay attention to the first round of tests at the Alchemy Conference. I returned to Qintian Prison and found Beili, and specifically ordered someone to take special care of him.
At dusk, Qing'er reminded Bai Song that he had an appointment with Mr. Zhang.
So Bai Song prepared to say goodbye to Beili.
Bei Li saw that Bai Song was worried and asked, "Ever since you met that young monk, you have been distracted. What is going on?"
Bai Song didn't say anything, waved his hand and left the imperial city.
However, Qing'er did not follow Bai Song and stayed alone with the emperor, saying that she wanted to treat the Lord Beili to a meal.
Bai Song was so preoccupied with things that he didn't even think about Qing'er's other purposes.
When I arrived at Zhang Liang's house, I saw Miss Zhang Yuhan waiting at the door and was able to withdraw from the chaotic thoughts.
It's always a bit of joy to see old friends.
Zhang Liang was also waiting at the door, and when he saw Bai Song, he hurried up to greet him.
Zhang Yuhan was filled with joy and could only hide his excitement in his heart when he saw his father was there.
Nowadays, Bai Song's status is getting higher and higher, and he has become a big force that everyone in Chang'an wants to fawn over.
Zhang Yuhan is already a bargaining chip to contact the Zhang family and the Beiding Palace.
Zhang Yuhan knew this very well, but she didn't care.
I still remember that three years ago, the Beiding Palace wanted to choose a concubine for the head of the family. Zhang Yuhan was sent to the Palace to show it to the ladies.
As a result, she was not selected, which shocked Ms. Zhang and she was depressed for a long time without cheering up.
Fortunately, knowing that no newcomers have entered the Beiding Palace, Miss Zhang felt a little more balanced.
The lady of the Ministry of Industry and Industry is already twenty in a flash and is not yet married. What this means is something people in Chang'an City know somewhat.
So Zhang Liang was not in a hurry, and no young masters from Chang'an City came to propose marriage.
Everyone tacitly knew that even if Miss Zhang could not enter the Beiding Palace, she was still a member of the Beiding Palace.
In the mansion, the banquet has been prepared.
Zhang Yuhan had been looking forward to it for a long time, but the first thing Bai Song said after taking his seat was: "Sir, I have something else to do today, I'm afraid I don't have enough time."
This sentence poured water on Miss Zhang's heart, thinking, "Does Mr. Bai just not want to see her so much?"
After waiting for three years, they finally met, but they didn't even give time for a meal?
Bai Song didn't mean this at all. He was thinking of his master Xu Hua and felt that it was time to come out of the palace at this time.
I don't know what they were talking about with the emperor.
Will there be a conflict with such a big battle at the city gate?
"It's okay, it's okay. If Mr. Bai has something urgent, you can go and do it first."
Bai Song couldn't sit still, so he stood up and left.
"Master Zhang, I'm leaving first, waiting for the Alchemy Conference to end."
Then he spoke to Zhang Yuhan again.
But before the words came out, I saw Miss Zhang's eyes filled with tears, which made me feel sad.
