This is obviously only half a sentence. How could Chen Chao not guess the next half of it.
Most likely it just depends on when you will come back.
Chen Chao shook his head. That girl was no different from before. She hid her feelings as always and didn't show it to others easily.
After receiving the letter, Chen Chao did not plan to write a reply. After all, he could not determine the time. If the time was agreed upon but the promise was not fulfilled in the end, it would only make people more disappointed and sad.
As for the second thing, Chen Chao often met with Taoist Priest Li Yu these days. The two chatted several times and mentioned the following events, but the other party downplayed and changed the topic. Chen Chao was not annoyed at all, but after that, he started
He and Taoist Li started talking about the origins of Taoism and Taoism, which surprised Li Yu a little. However, this Taoist priest did not refuse. On the contrary, he was very happy. He also wanted to hear this young martial artist's understanding of Taoism.
In this way, the two chatted for half a month, and it was almost the end of the year.
In the past few days, Wantian Palace does not restrict disciples from going down the mountain. Some disciples will choose to go down the mountain to visit relatives. Those who are far away may not return until more than a month later, but even so, they will not be reunited with their relatives for too long.
As for those who have no relatives alive, they will buy some things for the New Year nearby.
Whether it's couplets, firecrackers, fireworks, or red envelopes to hold New Year's money, we have them all.
Chen Chao also asked someone to buy a lot of fireworks and firecrackers. As for the red envelopes, he also bought a few, but as for the couplets, he didn't.
He didn’t even have a place to live in the mountains, so even if it was a couplet, he couldn’t find a place to post it.
.
He and Li Yu stood on one side of the mountain path, watching the disciples of Wantian Palace coming and going. Chen Chao suddenly said with emotion: "It turns out that Wantian Palace is so humane."
Li Yu said calmly: "Does the Guardian know the difference between the Tao of Taiping and the Tao of Immortality?"
Chen Chao looked at Li Yu and said, "Please ask Taoist Li to clarify his doubts."
"Of course, the biggest representative of the Tao of Immortality is the infatuated view. They practice in order to realize the elusive immortality, so they practice wholeheartedly and do not think it is necessary to do anything that hinders their practice. Relatively speaking, it is natural.
It's a little less humane. As for our Taiping Dao, we are actually not that particular and practice casually. If the disciples are homesick and go down the mountain, they generally won't stop them."
Li Yu spoke calmly, and his words were full of lightness and gentleness.
Chen Chao joked: "No wonder the Tao of Taiping has always been inferior to the Tao of Immortality."
Li Yu didn't take it seriously and just smiled and said: "There are three thousand avenues, each with its own way of walking. The Taoist ancestor also said that the way of Tao is natural and cannot be forced."
Chen Chao smiled and nodded, but did not continue to say anything. It was an ordinary relationship, and if he said more, it would be a bit annoying.
Afterwards, the two of them wandered around the mountains, and Li Yu said gratefully: "Your Majesty, the Guardian, brought the Yuting Sutra out of the top floor of the Three Thousand Buildings. Wantian Palace is very grateful to you."
Chen Chao smiled and said, "I've already received benefits, so I won't talk about this anymore."
Li Yu nodded. He had already heard about what happened there, and he had even told the palace master who had been avoiding Chen Chao.
The meaning of the palace master's senior brother is also very clear. Since it is Chen Chao who got the opportunity, then no matter what, it belongs to Chen Chao.
If Wan Tian Palace doesn't ask for it, it can be regarded as a reward.
Of course it's more like a good deed.
No matter what the final outcome of Chen Chao's trip is, Daliang and Wan Tiangong, Chen Chao himself and Wan Tiangong are determined not to fall out.
"The saint has been practicing hard in Sanqianlou these days, and her realm has improved rapidly. It is really a good thing."
Li Yu said with emotion: "The saint's qualifications are not bad, even compared to the two walls of the Taoist school. It's a pity that she is playful by nature. When the master was still there, he could still say a few words about the saint. Master
After Bo Xian passed away, those of us who are senior brothers can't say much, but fortunately we have my junior uncle now."
Although Zhu Xia is young, he is actually quite senior in Xishan. In fact, even if it comes down to it, Yun Jianyue must hold the courtesy of a junior in front of him.
"It's just that my uncle said he wants to travel around the world. I'm afraid the saint will slack off again."
Li Yu looked at Chen Chao and said with a smile: "The poor Taoist temple saint has some different feelings for the guardian envoy..."
He said this half-heartedly, but in fact it was no different from making a statement.
Before Chen Chao spoke, Li Yu smiled again and said, "But it seems that everyone in the world knows that the guardian envoy and that talented girl of the Xie family love each other."
Chen Chaoshen nodded in agreement and said, "Daozhang Li's admiration for each other is really good."
Li Yu was a little embarrassed.
I didn't expect that the young warrior in front of me was so thick-skinned.
"It's just the saint girl... If I, the saint girl of Wantian Palace, become my concubine..."
Li Yu had a headache. It was really not pleasant to hear this spread.
Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "What nonsense are the Taoist priests talking about? I don't have that feeling towards Zhu Xia."
Li Yu sighed: "It's a pity
Already."
Chen Chao was confused.
Li Yu calmed down his emotions and said with a smile: "I want to say that since the saint is willing to listen to the guardian envoy, can the guardian envoy give some instructions to the saint before leaving?"
Chen Chao nodded. He couldn't do other things, but he could still do this.
Li Yu thanked him again.
Chen Chao suddenly asked: "Does Taoist Li have any relatives or friends in the secular world?"
Li Yu shook his head and said, "Pindao has been an orphan since he was a child."
"..."
"I made a mistake."
Chen Chao cupped his hands and said again: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, let's have a New Year's Eve dinner together?"
Li Yu still shook his head and declined: "The Jade Court Scripture has been revealed again, and I also want to see it."
Chen Chao nodded, thought for a while, and said seriously: "After the New Year and before the Lantern Festival, I will leave Wantian Palace."
After saying this, Chen Chao cupped his hands and left alone without giving Li Yu time to answer.
Li Yu looked at Chen Chao's back, opened his mouth, but could not speak. This was the last deadline given by Chen Chao to Wantian Palace. Although he did not say what the consequences would be at that time, he had already set the tone for this matter.
.
"It seems that no matter what, I have to let my senior brother meet him."
Li Yu murmured to himself.
…
…
On New Year's Eve, Wantian Palace was filled with joy.
Chen Chaogang woke up from his residence and circulated his energy. He found that although the broken jade talisman and his own white mist had merged into one, their auras were two different auras. He knew that he wanted to transfer the legacy of the Taoist master
It would take some time before he could really use it for his own use, but he was not in a hurry.
Many things can never be rushed. If you are too hasty, it may be counterproductive.
Even so
Although it is much more troublesome than directly taking the old Taoist's Taoist fruit, Chen Chao believes that the benefits will slowly appear in the future.
After running the Qi machine for a week, Chen Chao opened his eyes and saw a small face in front of him.
Two dimples, right in front of you.
However, Zhu Xia looked tired. It seemed that this girl was not having a good life these days.
Chen Chao was a little surprised. The Taoist's insights over decades were supposed to be passed on to Zhu Xia. It was incredible that Zhu Xia was able to listen to and learn them in more than half a month.
Zhu Xia seemed to be smart for once. She looked at Chen Chao and said dissatisfiedly: "Do you know that I only sleep for one hour every day in order to catch up with New Year's Eve?!"
Chen Chao joked: "What about your junior uncle? Is he accompanying you like this?"
Zhu Xia snorted. After all, his junior uncle was relatively easy to talk to.
Chen Chao smiled and said, "How about you take a nap first?"
Zhu Xia shook his head and said: "No, Senior Brother Li said you have to go down the mountain before the Lantern Festival?"
Her information is quite good.
"There are still many things going on in the Shendu. As the guardian of the city, I have to deal with many things personally. Now there is already a very high hill there."
"Tsk tsk, is this the Lord Guardian?"
Chen Chao looked at this girl, her displeasure was not hidden at all, it was just plain on her face.
Chen Chao stretched out his hand to rub her head and said softly: "Be good."
After all, Zhu Xia has a girlish nature, and her moods and angers come and go very quickly. She quickly took Chen Chao's hand, rubbed it and said, "Go and write a couplet for me."
Chen Chao joked: "My handwriting is not pretty."
Zhu Xia shook his head and said, "I don't care."
Chen Chao had no choice but to go
I went to Zhu Xia's residence and wrote a couplet to her.
As for the content, it was something Chen Chao had read in a book before, and it probably meant to persuade Zhu Xia to practice well.
Zhu Xia looked at the couplets in front of her and felt very uncomfortable, "Who would hang this on their New Year's Eve?"
Chen Chao laughed it off.
After that, the two went to a small courtyard on the mountain. Every time there was a festival, the disciples on the mountain who were willing to celebrate the festival would gather here.
Chen Chao saw the big red lantern hanging at the entrance of the small courtyard from a distance. For a moment, he seemed to feel that he had returned to Tianqing County back then.
In those years, every New Year's Eve, Zhou Wolfberry would reluctantly ask Chen Chao to have New Year's Eve dinner at home.
After Zhu Xia walked in, the disciples on the mountain here were already used to it. Although Zhu Xia had a high seniority and status, he was always approachable and naturally no one was too reserved. As for Chen Chao, some people still looked at him a few times.
While preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner, several young ladies were whispering about Chen Chao. This young guardian envoy was indeed very famous now.
Chen Chao heard it, but he could only pretend not to know.
When it was getting dark, Zhu Xia couldn't help but prepare to set off fireworks, but Chen Chao shook his head to stop it, saying that the fireworks should be set off at midnight, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, what was the meaning of it.
Although Zhu Xia was a little reluctant, she still waited honestly.
Finally, we had to eat first. Chen Chao and Zhu Xia were sitting on the same bench. There were many disciples who came to toast. Chen Chao accepted them all, but Zhu Xia couldn't care about this and focused on the food.
She can really eat, Chen Chao has known this for a long time, and now he is not surprised.
At the end of the big table, almost half of the food fell into Zhu Xia's hands
in stomach.
Chen Chao looked down and saw that the girl's belly was round and round now, which was a bit cute.
He picked up the wine glass and glanced at the night, with some sadness in his eyes.
In my impression, I have never had the experience of spending New Year's Eve together as a whole family.
