The first thousand and fortieth chapters report the news of the plum blossom
Chen Pingan stood in the alley outside the door of his ancestral house and looked at the neighboring houses on both sides.
Xiao Mo understood clearly and asked: "Sir, are the pieces of the natal porcelain hidden nearby?"
Chen Pingan nodded and said with a smile: "I just don't know whether it is on the left or right side of the house."
It's well hidden. It can be said that it is far away and right in front of you.
At the Hongzhou border, the team stopped at a post station. Because they were officials and had "official duties," the post station had its own arrangements. Just follow the rules and follow the rules. It was step by step and orderly. More than a dozen officials stayed here in an orderly manner.
Zaocao Zeyi. If you are an acquaintance from the officialdom and want to sleep well, the official rooms of the inn are very particular. You have to stay according to your official position, and you have to take turns from top to bottom. If it is full and you want to jump in the queue, etc.
, it will definitely still not work. But if you want to eat well, there is no problem. For example, Yi Cheng can use his own money to hire a cook to open a small stove and cook a sumptuous banquet. This kind of thing is not considered a violation. The good laws of the country are not strictly strict.
Harshness must be reasonable, which has always been emphasized repeatedly by Cui Chan, the national teacher.
Entering the official residence, Emperor Song He stretched out his hand to wipe the table. He raised his hand and found that there was no dust. He went to the window sill again and wiped it gently. It was still clean and dust-free. He smiled and said: "Old man Guan used to question Mr. Guan in person about the country.
Master, you can manage big things well, that's your ability, but if you manage too many small things too carefully, it's inappropriate. Can't you trust the Six Ministries?"
Song He rubbed his thumb and index finger gently, "Facts have proved that the 'little things' that Mr. made over and over again and made fine adjustments were managed very well. Over time, the results will be seen. The further you go, the more stamina you will gain."
Xiuhu Cui Chun, in addition to the Grand Master of Great Li, was actually Song He's mentor. To a certain extent, Wu Yuan and His Majesty the Emperor were brothers with the same cultural heritage.
It's just that the members of their lineage have nothing to do with the Wen Sheng lineage.
Yu Mian lowered his voice and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, you haven't said yet, how did the Imperial Master answer Mr. Guan back then?"
Song He smiled and said, "I remember that my husband just replied, 'I can trust your intentions and original intentions, but I can't trust your methods and resilience.' That was the sentence that made our old man choke to death."
Next to the stable of the inn, the old coachman looked at the young Taoist priest sitting on the railing.
The old man felt powerless. Just when he was about to speak, the Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown made a gesture of wiping his mouth with his finger to signal him to stop talking.
Lu Chen put his hands on the railing and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Pindao is not looking for you to reminisce about old times, he is looking for someone else."
The old man hesitated for a moment and came up with a guess.
Lu Chen immediately stretched out his thumb, then cupped his hand and shook it, "Senior is worthy of being the top spot in the Leibu Zhankan Division. I admire you in my admiration."
The old man smiled and said: "It would be best for Master Lu to take her away, just to give Chen some fun. In the future, two fellow countrymen will meet again in a foreign land, and enemies will be extremely jealous when they meet. That will be interesting."
Lu Chen has been running a fortune-telling stall in Lizhu Cave for more than ten years, and they are no strangers to each other.
Poor Lu Wei, he was still a fairy from the Yin Yang family. He was planning and calculating, but in the end he couldn't even calculate that his ancestors were within easy reach.
Lu Chen complained: "We agreed not to chat, what's going on, senior?"
The old man smiled heartily and said: "Master Lu is a very talkative person and won't care about these things."
Lu Chen's eyes were full of resentment and he said, "So you can bully those who talk easily, right?"
The old man shook his head, "In the past ten years in this small town, in the blink of an eye, Master Lu and I have reunited and parted ways. She is here, so I won't delay Master Lu and you two to reminisce about the past."
The old man left here.
A father and daughter came with their horses.
Lu Chen moved his buttocks, landed on the ground, waved vigorously to the father and daughter, and shouted enthusiastically: "Here, here."
Of course, he used some tricks to make himself look less young. In A Liang's words, he looked more like a mature man!
Zhu He felt that the smiling "middle-aged Taoist priest" looked a bit familiar.
The Taoist priest hurriedly made a few gestures, and finally made a gesture of shaking the lottery tube, and said with a smile: "Do you remember? I am the one who sets up a roadside stall on the main street in Huaihuang County."
Zhu He's face was filled with surprise and he said with a smile: "Director Lu?!"
Zhu Lu actually recognized the other person at a glance, but she still pretended not to recognize the fortune teller.
Both father and daughter went to fortune-telling stalls one after another in a small town, but they were different. One wanted to know when his daughter would be lucky, and the other wanted to predict his own marriage.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Your name is Zhu He, right? Brother Zhu, Pindao has a friend who asked Pindao to ask you a question."
Although Zhu He was a little confused, he still smiled heartily and said: "Master Lu, please tell me."
Lu Chen smiled and said: "He just wants to know one thing. How did you make Chen Ping'an think you were a master on the study tour when you left the town? My friend, when asked about this question, was puzzled.
It confused him for many years."
Zhu He was confused. What is related to what? How come he is a master, and what does he have to do with this friend of Director Lu?
Zhu Lu's face was gloomy.
She crossed her arms across her chest and subconsciously made a defensive posture, wanting to see what kind of medicine this fortune teller, who had a bad impression on her back then, was selling in the gourd today.
Within the Weaving Bureau, Zhu He is the nominal second-in-command, second only to Mr. Li Zhizao. Zhu He is in charge of the officers. A large group of subordinate craftsmen, including the chief master, are responsible for assisting the chief officers in overseeing the specific weaving processes, both large and small.
Affairs. His current status is a bit similar to Lin Zhengcheng, the assistant officer of the kiln supervision and construction department in his hometown, so Zhu He is actually in a state of idle retirement.
Daughter Zhu Lu is quite different. All the money and food in a state, official governance and scholar association activities, etc., will be secretly recorded in the book. The group of people under her control are truly "eating the emperor's food", but they do not pass
The Ministry of Household Affairs, and the secret folds regularly submitted by the Weaving Bureau to the imperial study room in the capital were almost all written by her. The weaving officer Li Baozhen was only responsible for polishing the pen.
Lu Chen leaned against the railing and looked at them with a smile.
Zhu He, who is nearly sixty years old, has been training his body in the Golden Body Realm for many years and is expected to reach the Far Traveling Realm. Zhu Lu just became a Sixth Realm martial artist this year.
If he does not show up, and follows the arrangements and paving the way for their young master, or in other words, follows the established life path, and waits until Zhu He becomes the Grandmaster of the Far Traveling Realm, then he will be transferred to the local military attaché, which will be regarded as honoring the ancestor. Of course, if he just follows Zhu He's inner thoughts
Of course, Zhu He is more willing to go to the south, in a small country outside of Dali, to establish a sect and recruit disciples to teach martial arts. As for Zhu Lu, she will break through the realm step by step, and then one day, she will die of old age in the Far Traveling realm.
With a high level of martial arts, she would complain about everything and everyone, and she would always be depressed and frustrated.
On the road of her life, there are always two figures in front of her. One is the sweetheart who seems to be close at hand but can never be found, her own son, Li Baozhen.
The other one is the unreachable back figure in a green shirt. He is the same age as him in Mud Bottle Alley. He seems to have always been wearing a pair of straw sandals, has dark skin, and is holding a hatchet. He will always be the same mud-legged person as before.
Zhu Lu was so horrified by the Taoist priest's gaze that his hair stood on end.
Lu Chenxiao asked: "Miss Zhu, have you ever heard of the saying, 'The Zhu and Chen family will never betray each other'?"
Zhu Lu grimaced and shook his head.
Lu Chen smiled and said: "This is an idiom from the Qingming world. It is not widely spread. It is only known to everyone in a place called Zhulu County in Youzhou. So you haven't heard of it, which is strange."
Zhu He was confused after hearing this. Did Director Lu say something wrong?
So, it’s weird? Shouldn’t the ending be “not weird”?
Lu Chen said slowly: "In terms of background, you started early. In fact, compared to Chang Mei'er in Taoye Lane, Longquan Sword Sect is already Xie Ling of Jade Pu Realm Sword Cultivator, and that grandpa opened a wedding shop in a small town. In fact,
Hu Feng is Cai Daohuang, the co-owner of Tianxia Engagement Shop. He is much better than many of his peers in small towns. So Zhu Lu, for so many years, you have been complaining about your bad luck and blame others, but this is not true. It is a big mistake.
Very wrong.”
"Because to a certain extent, although you were born in Lizhu Cave Heaven, you are a foreigner with a very rich origin and background, because you don't even need a backer. Your backer is your previous life and yourself."
"You even entered the town earlier than Pindao, and you were reincarnated into the Li family on Fulu Street early, in order to one day be able to follow the flow of the flow, well, this is a good way of saying it, just go with the flow of the flow, and become the eldest son of your family.
, Li Xisheng, protect the Tao for a journey. In this process, you will continue to grow and climb very fast. For example, Ma Kuxuan, Liu Xianyang and others have broken through the realm so fast in these years, you can only go as fast as possible.
Not slow."
Lu Chen raised his fingers and said, "I can swear, if I tell a lie, I will be struck by thunder!"
The old coachman in the distance who used to be in charge of the Leibu Zhan Survey Division really has no way to deal with this Baiyu Jingsan headmaster.
In fact, in Qingming Tianxia, there is an idiom that is not widely circulated, called "Zhu Chen is good". In addition, it has also derived a relatively uncommon saying, Zhu Chen's family will never go against each other.
Because when it comes to his background, Lu Chen really didn't tell a lie today. Even in the eyes of the old coachman, Zhu Lu is an excellent "background". It can even be said that among the younger generation in the town, as long as Ruan Xiu and Li Liu are left aside, Li
- Ignoring the small group of people like Xi Sheng, she is the well-deserved leader. She is indeed better than Xie Ling from Taoye Lane and Hu Feng from Xishi Shop, because Zhu Lu is a "foreigner" who is half of Lizhu Cave Heaven.
”.
As for the opportunity, it was given to her early.
Even Chen Ping'an may not know it yet. The old coachman, Aunt Feng, and old antiques like Lu Wei are the young people who talk the most in their spare time. Zhu Lu is one of them.
They are all guessing where she came from. Although the clouds are shrouded in fog, this in itself can explain the problem. If the background is not big, how can the mountains and rivers be hazy, making them all feel like they are seeing flowers in the fog?
It's just because she was born in the Li family on Fulu Street. First, Li Xisheng, the "Peach Generation Li Jian", and then the headmaster Lu Chen entered the Lizhu Cave. No one dared to act rashly. In other words, no one could afford it.
This Taoist cause and effect.
Zhu He looked complicated.
Zhu Lu clenched her teeth, her teeth creaked, she clenched her fists tightly, and veins popped out on the back of her hands.
"Youzhou in Qingming World can be regarded as a continent on the Haoran World side, for example..."
The Taoist priest stamped his feet, "Aquarius Island is under our feet. Actually, this analogy is not quite accurate."
Lu Chen pointed to the north, "It should be said that it is the larger Beiju Luzhou, because Youzhou is one of the first-class states in the Qingming world."
"There are two places in Youzhou that are the most famous. One is the Huayang Palace in Difei Mountain, where Taoist priest Gao Gu is located. He is now the eighth in the Qingming world."
"The other one is the ancient battlefield in Zhulu County."
"And in your previous life, you were a local Taoist official there. And the biggest thing your predecessor accomplished was to turn Zhulu County into a battlefield. The last Taoist official who fought against you at that time was this
Gao Gu, who was forced to go down the mountain, in terms of aggressiveness, you have always been the best among masters."
Zhu He gently grabbed Zhu Lu's arm and told her not to be afraid with his eyes.
Zhu Lu had no expression on his face, staring straight at the Taoist priest, and said one word after another through his teeth, "Who are you?!"
Lu Chen just thought to himself and said: "Let me give you another analogy. There was once a gambling table. Some people only had a few copper coins in their hands for gambling, and some people had a few taels of silver in their pockets. But you,
He was carrying a sack of gold and silver ingots."
"The result is that, with a bang, I made the wrong bet, and soon the bet was over and I lost."
"Following the development of a certain line, you will first get to know Li Huai and experience some things, and then travel with Li Xisheng to Luzhou in Beiju. You will also get a dagger with the seal "Zhu Lu" inscribed on it, and this
Just one of the many opportunities you deserve."
"Recall carefully, when you were young, when you left Fulu Street, did you meet a poor kid with a tough head and a tough head, maybe wearing crotchless pants at the time? Well, you also met him later, but you still didn't like him, no matter what, you didn't like him
stand up."
"Yes, you must have been with Li Baozhen earlier."
"I guess that in the Li family mansion back then, you must have weighed and weighed repeatedly, and finally chose the second son, whom the housekeeper's wife was more partial to, instead of the eldest son. It may be because Li Xisheng's name did not
With the word 'treasure'."
"Because this is your fate."
"A lot of the knowledge we have in this life comes from the books we read in the previous life. Of course, there are books inside and outside the books. Therefore, the books we read in this life are not only for the current life, but also for the next life.
"
"In your previous life, it was because you were so smart. You were so smart. It kept accumulating and finally blossomed at a certain moment. As a result, you missed a chance that should have been taken for granted. In the end, it ended up being a big mistake.
It led to a big mistake. It was Grand Master Bai Yujing who interceded for you and helped you make amends and correct your mistakes, so that you could avoid death. Therefore, in this life, you have to start over. You can make up for your mistakes, or you can... continue as usual."
"Look, you are just too smart, so smart that you are not smart at all. At this moment, you are beginning to resent me for why I didn't point you out earlier, and why you stood idly by?"
"You have to know how old you will be by the time Pindao goes to Lizhu Cave to set up a stall? Do you think a person's determined character can be changed so easily? Otherwise, why would there be an old saying called Jiangshan?
It’s easy to change your temperament, but it’s hard to change it?”
"Besides, Pindao is not related to you, is it your father?"
"You still like to blame others, and never like to look for problems within yourself. With you like this, even if Pindao had entered the town ten years earlier... maybe it would have really worked, but it's a pity that Pindao only has so much ability, and his little arms are so thin.
Legs, do you think you can enter just by entering the Lizhu Cave? I can help you if I ask for help? Besides, we humans have to encounter troubles and suffer hardships, so we can change our minds and make vows on our own.
Asking for blessings, always thinking about meeting noble people to help you on the road, this kind of mentality is unacceptable."
"There must be a sentence in the sages' books that Li Baozhen read, 'If you are not able to do anything, you will turn to yourself, and the world will return to you if you are upright'. What's more, the crab shop in your hometown also has four big characters, 'Mo
Seeking from the outside?"
Lu Chen shifted his gaze and said with a smile: "Zhu He, Zhu He, you are good at everything, honest and kind-hearted, but there is only one thing that you have to change. You like to admit your mistakes on behalf of others. You should change this in the future.
It’s not too late to remedy the situation, maybe, maybe, probably.”
An old man, to this day, is still full of guilt for the boy from back then. He is sincerely happy with the achievements of the boy from Mud Bottle Alley, but he does not dare to show any true emotions to his daughter, so
After so many years, it’s actually not easy.
Lu Chen put his hands horizontally, patted the railing gently, and looked up into the distance.
What is a gambling table?
What you don’t want, someone wants it.
Zhu Lu asked: "Who are you?"
Lu Chen said with a smile: "I am a poor man with the surname of Lu. He talks about it as a big deal and thinks about it high."
Zhu Lu was unaware and burst into tears.
Lu Chen said with a smile: "Miss Zhu, you don't have to cry so sadly. It's not too late to make up for it. Otherwise, why would Pindao come to you and tell you the truth just to make you regret your life? Pindao is one of the most important figures in the mountain.
Very busy!”
The old coachman sighed.
You are one of the few great monks in the world. There is nothing wrong with this statement, but you, Lu Chen, are very busy?
"As you walk through life step by step, like reading, composing, and writing, you must write one stroke at a time, seriously, and write calmly."
Lu Chen raised one of his feet and gently twisted the ground with his toes, "It is said that you look older at the age of three. In fact, everyone has his own writing skills and fast and slow steps. Generally speaking, although it has nothing to do with character, intelligence and stupidity, it is still impressive.
A person's blessings come from his merits. Moreover, if you are really diligent, a stupid person is willing to read more and learn more and be smarter in life, and a smart person is willing to use stupid methods to be a human being. According to the saying in your hometown, if you have mastered the skills, you will not be seen to death early.
.Slowly seeing success, you will have a new atmosphere in the world, which can surprise others and frighten people."
Lu Chen stood up straight, stretched, and said with a smile: "There is a saying that there is a good thing. The momentum of the storm is bad, and the spirit of the weeds is bad. There is no other way, that's all. You, me, him and her
, we all encourage each other.”
"Okay, okay, don't look at Pindao with that cannibalistic look. Pindao will give you another choice and opportunity. Say goodbye to your father, and then follow Pindao... back home."
"Zhu Lu, Pindao and you have opened up the skylight and spoken frankly, but the ugly words are ahead. If you still can't cherish it, Pindao can only hehehehehe!"
Lu Chen raised one sleeve, shook it, and said lazily: "Do you know what this is? I would like to advise you, it is best not to know about it in this life."
After walking along the way, Queen Mother Nan Hao found that she liked chatting with Yu Yu, so she pulled the girl into the house. When she took the initiative to pour water, Yu Yu asked a question that probably only she could ask.
He raised his head and held the cup, and asked in a low voice: "The Queen Mother, do you have any Changchun Palace wine? I'm a little tired after a long journey. I want to have a small drink to refresh myself, so that I can have a good chat with the Queen Mother!"
"For now, a glass of wine will keep you energetic, so let's just drink from a bowl."
Nan Han nodded with a smile, took out two pots of fairy wine from his sleeves, and then cast a forbidden spell to prevent the partition wall from having ears. He lightly knocked the wine bowl with the girl and drank it all in one gulp. The woman took the initiative to say something about what she had set up last time.
The inside story of the banquet in which "Chen Yinguan" was entertained was of course revised by the Empress Dowager. The true and false were confusing. For example, she said that she was extremely sincere and offered a very high "price" to Chen Ping'an.
The Lisong family is willing to do their best to devote manpower, material and financial resources to help him cultivate all the way up to the bottleneck of the Ascension Realm...
As Nan Hao spoke, her eyes turned red, and there were vague tears in her eyes. She took a sip of wine, stretched out her palm, gently brushed the table, and murmured: "Yu Yu, this is what you said,
Why can't we reach an agreement?"
In a previous meeting with Chen Pingan, she claimed that she was a golden elixir, but in fact she was a Nascent Soul. However, Chen Pingan still saw through her level at a glance.
Yu Yu really dared to say, "Empress Dowager, please don't be angry. To be honest, you shouldn't talk like this. When you talk about money and business with businessmen, you should talk about the principles of saints and sages with scholars. After you get acquainted with each other,
Find opportunities to talk about feelings with businessmen and do business with scholars."
Nan Hao was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and said with a smile: "It seems reasonable."
Yu Yu asked cautiously: "Empress Dowager, Master Yinguan didn't do anything inappropriate to you, right?"
That guy is easy to talk to when he is easy to talk to, but when he is not easy to talk to... forget it, if he doesn't want to think about it, or if he doesn't dare to think about it, then he won't think about it.
Nan Hairan chatted with Yu Yu for a long time again, and each drank a jar of wine. In the end, the little girl kidnapped two jars of Changchun Palace Fairy Brew.
Leave the house.
Nan Hao sat alone in the room, looking around, feeling very angry. She held the white bowl with her fingers, raised it high, and knocked it heavily on the table.
Just thinking about it, I put down the South Hairpin gently, as I didn't want to lose my temper with a white bowl.
She leaned back subconsciously, almost falling to the ground, before she remembered that the seat she was sitting on was just a bench, not the chair she had been accustomed to for many years.
The woman was so angry that she waved her sleeves vigorously and smashed the white bowl against the wall. She sighed dejectedly and put the white bowl that was about to shatter into pieces back on the table.
The woman stared blankly at the empty bowl, the more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became, her chest heaving with anger.
At that time, she was sure that the other party did not dare to commit murder in the capital. How could a close disciple of Wen Sheng act disobediently? The key point is that if he has some sense and brains, how could he endure the flourishing Dali Foundation, especially the achievements created by his senior brother Cui Chan?
Chen Ping'an, the junior brother, was in ruins at his hands?
As a result, one of Nan Hairan's heads was chopped off by the opponent. If she hadn't immediately used a Lu family's "family tradition" secret method...
Thinking of this, Nan Hao couldn't help but rub her forehead, then stretched out her palm and gently brushed her neck.
This guy who had been stepping on shit all the way suddenly became rich and lost weight! He just brought a young attendant with a yellow hat and blue shoes into the palace. The person who led the way at that time was someone who claimed to be half a fellow countryman with Chen Ping'an.
Lu Wei, this ancestor, Nan Hairpin whose real name is Lu Jiang, and Lu Tai all came from the Lu family clan. The man named Chen not only lit a lamp-raising charm for her, but also gave Lu Wei a stick of clouds.
Xiang. Cut off Nan Hairan's head, held her head down and forced her to kowtow, and finally overturned the table.
The reason why Nan Hao took the initiative to leave the capital with the emperor this time was not to travel around, but for two private matters, and they could not avoid Chen Ping'an.
One thing is to confirm with Chen Ping'an whether there are still a few Lingxi beads left on the bead string in his hand that can be used.
The second thing is that she wants to know whether she can break away from the Lu family of the Yin-Yang family in Middle-earth and completely distance herself from the behemoth that makes her feel lingering fear.
Just like how the old coachman was teased by Aunt Feng when he was at the Fire Temple earlier, if it doesn't work out, just give in to Chen Ping'an, sell a good deal, and expose Lu Wei's background there. The old coachman is not unmoved, but he is still
I gave up this idea because I really felt that even if I provoke a sword cultivator, I shouldn’t make a grudge against a fortune teller. If I provoke a sword cultivator, I’ll just take a few blows and it’ll be over if I can handle it. But I would make enemies with the Qi practitioners of the Yin Yang family, especially those from Middle Earth.
The Lu family is not a once-in-a-lifetime thing. The old coachman is so afraid of the Yin Yang family, let alone Nan Hao, an insider who has become a pawn on the chessboard.
It's just that for some reason, since Lu Wei returned to the family, it seems that she has completely forgotten about her "Lu Jiang".
Today, there is a green bamboo hairpin made of ordinary material in the southern hairpin bun.
Yu Yu noticed it, but didn't dig into it. She just thought it was the Queen Mother's leisure and elegance. After all, she looked very elegant.
Previously in the palace, she did not and did not dare to deceive the young and reclusive official.
She indeed secretly returned the piece of natal porcelain to Lizhu Cave.
While Nan Hao's face was changing and his thoughts were wandering, a strange voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"A little weaving bureau official who just followed the carriage and ate dust can suddenly be on an equal footing with the Queen Mother of the Great Li Dynasty. How does it feel?"
The hairpin slowly raised her head, and she saw a young Taoist priest wearing a lotus crown. As for the woman next to the Taoist priest, her surname seemed to be Zhu? She was the maid next to the weaver Li Baozhen?
She didn't even look at it.
The woman was only dazed for a moment, but soon returned to normal, and then tears filled her eyes. She stood up quickly, stepped back again and again, stood still, and then knelt down and kowtowed with a bang.
I just thought about getting rid of the relationship with "Lu Jiang", but now I have no thoughts at all. The pear blossoms are raining, and I cry out: "Lu Jiang meets the ancestors!"
Lu Chen jumped sideways and stretched out his palm, "No, please don't recognize your ancestors and return to your clan with Pindao. Pindao is already in debt."
Except for that kid from Lu Tai, who has a clear mind, funny words, and is quite filial, there are really not many people who can make his ancestors really worry-free.
When something happens, I like to offer incense and kowtow to my ancestors. My ancestors, when something happens to me, I kowtow to you, okay? It just works? Since it doesn’t work anyway, who can blame whom?
Lu Jiang turned a deaf ear and just kowtowed vigorously.
Lu Chen moved a bench and sat down, crossed his legs, and said with a smile: "Okay, what's the point of kowtowing without any sincerity? Do you really think that the ancestors on the hanging statues are all dead?"
Lu Jiang still didn't listen and just kowtowed, probably to show her sincerity. Her forehead was already red and swollen.
Lu Chen patted his knees and said: "I'm afraid of you, so get up and prevent you from kowtowing in vain. As a reward, I will say hello to Lu Shen. From now on, the name Lu Jiang will be written off from the Lu family tree."
I'll count to three. If I don't get up, I'll leave, just pretending that I didn't come today. As for thinking about relying on Lu Jiang to get close to me, Nan Hairpin, be careful, you are just daydreaming, and in the end you will be fetching water from a bamboo basket.
All in vain. One, two..."
Nanhan quickly stood up.
Lu Chenxiao asked, "I didn't want to come here at first, but I'm really curious about something. Tell me, where did you order Yang Hua to put the piece of natal porcelain?"
Nan Hairpin did not dare to hide anything, and still cried, saying in a slightly trembling voice: "Returning to the ancestors... According to Master Lu, I have asked Yang Hua to secretly place the piece of natal porcelain next to the ancestral home in Chen Ping'an's Ni Ping Lane.
?”
"oh?"
Lu Chen's eyes lit up and he smiled from ear to ear, "Next door, on the left or on the right?"
Nan Hairpin said: "It's in the drawer of Song Mu's study, tucked inside an elementary school book."
Lu Chen seemed a little disappointed, curled his lips, stood up, "Go home, go home."
Nan Hairpin wanted to speak but stopped.
Lu Chen stretched out his finger, tapped the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Nan Hairpin, I want to give you an extra word. Stop scolding Chen Pingan in your heart. He can actually hear it and is too lazy to care about it."
The hairpin was suddenly struck by lightning.
She was really panicked now.
In terms of memory and forbearance, especially the ability to hold grudges, that guy definitely impressed Nan Hao.
Lu Chen laughed and said, "You really believe it too."
Nan Hao was at a loss.
Lu Chen nodded to himself and said, "I can believe it."
"If you don't believe it, you may suffer hardships. If you believe it, you won't suffer any losses but will make money. Why don't you believe it?"
Lu Chen kicked the bench back to its original position, "The most difficult thing for learning in the world is to sail at night."
Leading Zhu Lu to ignore the wall and walk straight out, Lu Chen put his hands in his sleeves and said, "I don't mind this very much."
"In my opinion, the most difficult thing is to bend down and pick up money all over the floor."
"It is everywhere, but almost no one is willing to pick it up, but they don't want to put it in their pocket. In this world, everyone is supposed to have a lot of money, and there are dragons and snakes everywhere on the land. How strange it is."
"Fellow Taoist, do you know if the copper coins all over the floor have any meaning, what do they mean?"
Zhu Lu suddenly had an idea, his face turned gloomy, and he murmured, "The truth."
"That's right."
Lu Chen laughed, "So you know."
God is kind and gives us the opportunity to make mistakes.
"Xingxing is delayed, the center is against the rules. I have to go back."
Lu Chen stretched his body and said, "The Taoist priest in the mountain is reporting the plum blossom news."
In the capital of Qingxing Kingdom, there is a quiet Taoist temple with dense ancient cypress trees. The entrance hall is deserted, and it seems that no one comes here to burn incense.
After all, Cheng Qian was just a true protector of the country, and had never served as a national teacher. It was extremely suitable to live in seclusion here to practice Taoism, away from the turmoil of official circles.
Wen Chengcheng spent these days resting in the Taoist temple.
Mr. Cheng, who looked like a child, took a shower and changed clothes today, and went to the Patriarch's Hall to light three sticks of incense. Purple smoke curled up, and then a woman walked out of a painting. She was the master of Lingfei Palace and the Patriarch of Dongting.
.
Walking out of the Patriarch Hall together, Cheng Qian and Patriarch Xiangjun talked about the current situation in detail. It turned out that a disruptor suddenly appeared not long ago, and it seemed that he was trying to compete with Lingfei Temple for the boundary of Hehuan Mountain.
Except for Emperor Liu of the Qingxing Kingdom, the other monarchs of the two countries surrounding Hehuan Mountain showed signs of changing their tune.
Cheng Qian said: "A group of three people are at the imperial palace in the capital right now, and they want to discuss with His Majesty the purchase of the mountain. According to the palace legend,
Xin Dao Guan, let me know about this."
Xiangjun asked in confusion: "What is their background? Hasn't any news been leaked before?"
As for the opening of Hehuan Mountain as a private dojo and Lingfei Temple down the mountain, the other party stopped him midway. Xiang Jun was not very annoyed, but more curious.
Cheng Qian explained: "In the previous two times, this group of people acted more covertly and airtight. They went to the emperor directly and discussed matters face to face in secret. This time it seems that they deliberately let the Taoist temple know, so that I could inform the palace master.
. One man and two women, both from outsiders, used a cover-up trick. It can be seen that the other party's bid is very high, otherwise the emperors of the two countries would not take the risk of enmity with us to earn such hot fairy money."
Arriving at an elegant courtyard, Wen carefully was waiting here. He was teasing a koi in a water tank. This martial arts master, who had been a little sick recently, sneered: "You are not timid, Ming."
Knowing that it is our Lingfei Palace's business, as long as you are not deaf, you should have heard that Grandmaster Cao has appeared in the Hehuan Mountain area before, and they dare to go through the market with such arrogance and blatantly compete with us for territory, I am confused, why?"
Xiangjun turned a deaf ear to it, and Cheng Qian didn't care. Wen Chengzhong was in a bad mood recently, and he had his own reasons. Although Cheng Qian didn't know about the sparring outside Fenwan Mansion, Wen Chengzhong was "moved" here to recover from his injuries by Jinxian'an Xingzi
Yes, the injury was not light, but not too serious. It did not damage the foundation of Dao. It was inevitable to take elixirs and medicinal diets and take care of them for several months. There was only one thing that made Cheng Qian more concerned. It seemed that Wen Qian was careful.
During this period of time, I tried several times to sit and forget and concentrate on refining my Qi, but to no avail. The more times I did it, the more I started to feel irritable.
There is a set of chess sets and some old chess records in the house. The two jars of chess pieces are both made of finely polished black and white pebbles from the stream. The materials are ordinary, but they are made with great care.
Xiangjun took off his boots outside the house, walked into the room covered with bamboo mats, sat on the side of the chessboard, extended his hand to invite: "Cheng Qian, let's talk about a game."
After Cheng Qian sat down, he smiled and said: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."
Wen carefully did not take off his shoes. He sat at the door with his back to the two players, absent-minded, his brows furrowed, and his expression extremely gloomy.
If he hadn't been in another Taoist temple, Wen Qingzhen would have yelled loudly, and he might have been drunk. With the strength of alcohol, he found a secluded mountain in the wind and smashed countless hills.
Just because he has been in so much pain recently, every time he closes his eyes, does his Taoist homework, and concentrates for a moment, the face of that woman will appear in his mind, her slightly sarcastic expression, especially
Her eyes, which were both hot and cold, were so contradictory that Wen Qingxin had to withdraw from his mind every time he started to sit and forget. As a result, the speed of his injury recovery was more than a day or two slower than he expected?
A young Taoist priest wearing a golden wreath on his head walked lightly and walked like flowing water. He stood at the door without taking a second look into the courtyard. He bowed his head and said respectfully: "Master, we have a guest."
Three people came to the door, one woman and two men, all Qi practitioners. The disciples could not see their cultivation, and they claimed to want to discuss a deal with the temple master."
Cheng Qian twirled his fingers and hung them in the air, looking at Patriarch Xiangjun, and she nodded.
Cheng Qian gently placed a piece on the chessboard and said in a clear voice: "Bring them here."
The bored Wen carefully became interested, listened to the sound, and listened to the footsteps and breathing. He didn't look like the kind of accomplished monk. Could it be that he was a bumpkin with a few bad money in his pocket, stunned and green, away from the mountain?
The summit was too far away, so he dared not to take Lingfei Palace, which had just been promoted to the title of Zong, seriously? A moment later, Wen carefully saw the figures of the three people. The leader was a young man in a scholar's shirt, with a jade hairpin on his head and a face on his face.
She has a smile, good skin, and a good demeanor. On the left is a woman who looks like a country woman. The one on the right makes Wen carefully look at it a few more times. She has a green bun, a graceful figure, and is wearing a
The emerald green robe of high quality and her slender waist are as heavy as the baht robes of the Qixian family.
Xiang Jun just took one look and knew that these people were not easy people, they were undoubtedly dragons crossing the river.
Let’s just say that the emerald green robe worn by the young female cultivator was something that even Xiangjun had only seen in Taoist spiritual books. It was the so-called “Tushita Palace Baht Clothes” in Taoism. It was very resource-intensive and extremely difficult to refine.
According to the records in the book, this kind of Immortal Baht Clothes, which is known as "a flick of a hundred years old", only appeared in a batch in the ancient times when the real people on the land had their own places of governance. It is said that it can help Qi practitioners to contact
As time goes by and changes occur, there are almost no female cultivators wearing them anymore.
Since Cheng Qian, a local snake, may not be able to suppress them, Xiangjun, as the ancestor of the Shangzong, did not think about how to test it. He put the chess pieces back into the chess jar and said with a smile: "Lingfei Palace, Xiangjun, the name is Dongting.
You are?"
The leading young man looked warm and bowed: "Gu Can, Baidicheng. Meet the founder of Xiangjun, Master Cheng - Zhenren, and Grandmaster Wen."
The maid on the side looked at her and silently gave her a blessing. It was just such a silent gesture, so charming.
Only the charming village woman remained motionless.
Wen carefully thought he heard wrongly, "Are you Gu Can?!"
Why did Zheng Juzhong, a disciple of Baidi City, come here to acquire an unfavorable piece of land that was barren? As for the Lizhu Cave where Gu Can was born in the Great Li Dynasty, Wen Zhencheng had certainly heard about it for a long time. Gu Can was young.
What he did at the Shujian Lake at that time was known to all passers-by on the Aquarius Island due to a certain landscape travel book. Why, is this a prodigal son who will never be able to exchange for gold?
After Gu Can bowed and stood up, he smiled and nodded, "I am."
Wen clicked his tongue carefully: "You actually recognize me?"
Gu Can nodded and said: "There are so many rumors in the world, it's hard not to hear about them."
Wen carefully wondered: "You don't look crazy at all, so why do they call you a 'crazy person'?"
Gu Can smiled and said, "It would be great if Grandmaster Wen could still feel this way after we finish talking about things today."
Wen laughed carefully and gave a thumbs up to Gu Can, "He finally looks like a fanatic."
Xiang Jun did not stop Wen from chatting carefully with Gu Can. It is not a bad thing to understand as much as possible about the other person's character through words and deeds.
Since he is Gu Can and his identity is unmistakable, the previous doubts can be explained. In the vast world, the direct disciple of Mr. Zheng in Baidi City really does not need to sell face to Lingfei Palace.
Gu Can glanced at the chess game in the room and said: "I don't dare to delay the discussion between Grandmaster Xiangjun and Master Cheng. This junior will have something to talk about."
Xiang Jun smiled and nodded: "Please tell me."
Gu Can stood in the small courtyard, calm and calm, and said slowly: "Since the founder of Xiangjun and Lingfei Palace have only reached preliminary intentions with the Liu family of Qingxing Kingdom, and have not yet signed a contract in black and white, this
If something is not certain, the younger generation will still have a chance. Business in the world is nothing more than a matter of mutual consent, and the one with the highest price gets it."
"Besides, I am bound to get that piece of land in Hehuan Mountain. There is no price gouging. Anyway, every time you bid, I only pay one Grain Rain Money more than you do."
"So if you are still angry, you can keep raising prices and make me spend more money. When you are angry, you can quit."
Xiangjun frowned slightly.
Cheng Qian looked even more displeased, Gu Can, do you really think you are your master, Mr. Zheng? Can you speak so wildly?
Wen carefully laughed angrily and spoke first: "When did the face of our Lingfei Palace become worth just one Grain Rain coin?"
Gu Can said: "Master Wen just needs to take good care of his injuries."
The implication is that you, Wen Zhen, are not qualified to intervene in what the two parties are talking about.
The maid next to her, whose pseudonym was effective, Chunxiao, covered her mouth and smiled.
People who have read the book, make insinuations, speak in a weird way, and speak in such a derogatory way?
Hearing the coquettish snickering, Wen carefully shifted his gaze and looked at the maid-looking Yiwu.
In an instant, Wen Qingcheng's eyes blurred, his mind was unsettled, his Taoist heart was like falling into an ice cave, his energy was not flowing smoothly, and his face turned red. Fortunately, he soon returned to normal, but there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
Gu Can glanced at Ling Yu's "face" at this moment. He squinted his eyes, looked away, looked thoughtful, and said in his heart: "Master Xiangjun, any sect will cultivate a Qi practitioner with Wen Qingcheng's qualifications. Shanfeng Feng
It’s a big place and the road is rugged, but don’t be careful and you may die young.”
Xiangjun said calmly: "Are you threatening me?"
Gu Can shook his head and said: "Junior is just presenting facts, reasoning, and talking about possibilities."
"Besides, as long as you and I don't bring in reinforcements and turn around to find the master, do you think I need to talk nonsense to you? It's just a business, it's more money than money. I came here today and I have already given Lingfei Palace and Cao Tianjun
Save face."
"Hehuan Mountain, Little Shujian Lake? If we really want it to be Shujian Lake, we can decide on a life and death situation, haha, I will tear off all of your heads."
Han Qiaose had the highest level and was one of the few great monks in Baidi City. She could hear the conversation between the two parties. She was so surprised that she couldn't help but ask for help from her heart, "Didn't I agree to have a good chat with that Xiangjun?"
Why did you change your mind temporarily? Gu Can doesn’t look like Gu Can anymore.”
Lingxuan smiled sweetly from her heart and said: "The master seemed to have seen someone he knew through Wen's careful eyes, and this person had a close relationship with that person, so he became angry, very angry. Of course, this has nothing to do with
The master fought such a fierce battle with us in the wilderness, and foolishly went to fight Cao Ci for a second time. He was injured more and more. It is inevitable that his Taoist heart is unstable. It is all related. In addition, in the Jade Pu Realm
Reaching the realm of immortals is a mental journey of 'seeking truth', and the relationship is even greater."
Han Qiaose smiled and said: "You little bitch, do you understand Gu Can so well?"
Lingyan said with a smile: "Don't say it so harshly. From now on I will call you sister even if I have no choice. Don't worry, you are the housewife and I can be the younger one."
Han Qiaose moved to Lingyan's side, twisted the neck of her white and smooth hands, and shook her, "Young girl, you don't know what to say? You are spitting shit out of your mouth, are you shitting with your butt?"
In an instant, the whole courtyard was filled with a solid air of chilling.
Lingshu shrank his neck and kept begging for mercy, saying he didn't dare anymore.
Cheng Qian was a little shocked.
Is this internal strife?
He is worthy of being a monk who came out of Baidi City.
Gu Can said: "Busy about business."
Han Qiaise loosened her fingers, rubbed her neck with Lingshu, and said timidly: "Master, don't blame me, it was your aunt who bullied me."
Wen is careful and careless.
Cheng Qian's face turned slightly pale when he heard this.
Isn’t Gu Can’s senior aunt the junior sister of Mr. Zheng from Baidi City, the Immortal Han Qiaose?!
On the mountain, whether a Qi practitioner at a certain level can be called outstanding depends on whether the threshold is very simple, that is, whether he can be regarded as a swordsman.
The founder of Lingfei Palace and the Taoist Heavenly Lord Cao Rong are of course included in this list. And Han Qiaose of Baidi City is also acceptable.
There is undocumented gossip on the mountain. It is rumored that Han Qiaise once vowed to master twelve kinds of Taoist magic, and every path she chose is a mountain climbing path that the monks of Baidi City are afraid of. Regardless of the rumors
True or not, there is a consensus among the outside world that Han Qiaose will definitely be able to reach the Ascension Realm.
Xiang Jun smiled and said: "I'll leave the border of Hehuan Mountain to you, so fellow Taoist Gu won't have to spend more Grain Rain money."
Gu Can had a slight surprise. After hesitating for a moment, he took out a Guyu coin from his sleeve, pinched it with two fingers, walked straight into the house, without touching the ground, squatted beside the chess game, and changed hands from the chess pot on Cheng Qian's side.
He picked up a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard. He then placed the Grain Rain coin on the edge of the chessboard. He raised his head and said with a smile, "Just think that Gu Can owes you a favor from Lingfei Palace. I will keep it in mind whether you use this favor or not."
In my heart, the road is lofty and the world is impermanent. Whether it is Cao Tianjun who has been aiming to ascend for a long time, or Xiangjun Patriarch, who will probably go to Baiyujing to practice and attain enlightenment, or Wen Qingzhu, who has to decide whether to be the next palace master or not, the landscape has its own meaning.
When we meet, there is always a chance to meet again."
Gu Can paused for a moment and asked with a smile: "Do you need me, this junior, to crush this Grain Rain coin so that I can be out of sight and out of mind?"
Xiang Jun still smiled and shook his head: "No need. Just keep it. As you said, whether I go to Baidi City or you go to Bai Yujing, I believe there will always be a chance to meet again."
Gu Can's eyes were as hot as two fire cages, staring blankly at the crowned lady with the name Dongting.
Xiangjun subconsciously shifted his gaze, as if to avoid his sharp edge.
But before she could express anything, Gu Can had already stood up with a smile, walked out of the courtyard, turned around and bowed, "This junior is rude and I will offend you a lot."
After leaving the Taoist temple, Han Qiaose asked: "Xiao Can, have you thought about establishing a sect here?"
Gu Can shook his head and said: "I haven't thought about it yet. Anyway, I just bought a piece of land, and the expense is not big."
Han Qiao smiled and asked: "Huh?"
Gu Can didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It doesn't mean that. What are you thinking about?"
In fact, Han Qiaose didn't care about the love between men and women at all, she just felt a little sorry for Gu Can.
When Gu Can entered the Jade Pu Realm from seclusion in Yuan Ying Realm, the person who protected him was Han Qiao Se.
It failed once, but what made Han Qiaise feel even more worried was when she opened the door and saw the haggard young man with a lot of tears and runny nose on his face.
As for what Gu Can's inner demon is, Han Qiaise has already guessed it.
At that time, the young man sitting cross-legged on the futon, with his hands clenched into fists and resting on his knees, was lost in thought and muttering to himself.
"I don't like these... principles. I just can't defeat them, so I have to bow to them."
"I am who I am, and Gu Can will always be Gu Can. I can correct my mistakes, but I will not admit them to you. I am not wrong!"
"You know that I have never lied to you since I was a child...I have never changed, you have changed."
Han Qiaose didn't know how to comfort people. She could only stand at the door and look at the heartbroken young man, like a beast hiding in a dark corner licking his wounds alone.
Then senior brother Zheng Juzhong appeared at the door. Han Qiaose stiffened her hair and wanted to ask senior brother for help so that Gu Can could tide over the difficulties and overcome this mental disaster.
Zheng Juzhong just smiled and said: "With this little xinxing, you dare to say that you will practice the Great Way in Baidi City and reach the top, just to prove that Chen Ping'an is not wrong, and you are not wrong either?"
As a result, Gu Can's next performance scared Han Qiaose.
The young man, who was trying to suppress his rage, remained seated and motionless, and just cursed, "Get out of here!"
Han Qiao was stunned at the time. There was really no one who dared to talk to his senior brother like this. Has it ever happened? Maybe, but the consequences can be imagined.
Fortunately, the senior brother didn't get angry. He just shook his head and smiled and said, "It's really pitiful that people are poor and have short ambitions, and the river is narrow and the water is strong."
Gu Can just lowered his head, panting, and the sequelae of the failed seclusion appeared. His face was covered with blood, and it continuously flowed out from the seven orifices, washing away the tears and nose.
Zheng Juzhong put one foot on the threshold and said, "No intention, no necessity, no solidity, no self. I use the Tao as the criterion, so I am not arbitrary."
Gu Can slowly raised his head, turned his neck, and stared at the master, the number one demon in the world, with dark eyes.
Zheng Juzhong smiled and said: "This is what Chen Pingan might say to you when he sees you in such a state, because he will pity you. But you and he have never dared to admit it. As long as Gu Can doesn't die for a day, Chen Pingan will
Why don't you pity him when he can't walk out of Shujian Lake for a day? Because you don't even have the ability to pity him. You obviously hate him so much that you don't even dare to hate him, not at all."
Han Qiaose felt chills running down her spine when she heard this, and the dignified Immortal Realm monk actually got goosebumps on the spot.
Gu Can seemed to have lost all his energy at that moment.
But at this moment, Zheng Juzhong turned around and left. He just asked the disciple a question and gave an answer that was not an answer.
"If you don't kill the demon Chen Ping'an today, how will you protect Chen Ping'an in the future? Just rely on Gu Can's Nascent Soul realm?"
"If you want to go higher, you have to climb to the highest point. One day, when you have paid off your debt, tell Chen Pingan that you are wrong and I am right."
Zheng Juzhong had gone away, and the room was silent for a long time. Gu Can said hoarsely: "Help close the door, I want to retreat."
Han Qiaise remembered clearly that day, Gu Can, who had failed in seclusion, had successfully come out of seclusion in less than a stick of incense.
In the vast and vast plains of Qingming World, Secret State, there stands a solitary Leap Moon Peak.
There is a person who has made several thatches on the top of the mountain. He has been looking at the blue sky here since he was young.
Because Leyue Peak is so high that it reaches into the clouds, the weak water at the foot of the mountain winds like a small snake in front of your eyes.
Thanks to the hard work of the martial arts, the latest ten people in the world are at the bottom. Although they are at the bottom, there is a clear distance between them and the candidates.
The hilltop, which has always been quiet, has rarely been so lively recently. It is so lively that even though I have never had any emotional ups and downs, I feel a little bored.
The first qigong practitioner to climb the mountain was a guy named Lu Tai. He brought a native dog from an unknown country road and named him Lu Chen, nicknamed Liu'er.
The woman who climbed the mountain with Lu Tai was named Yuan Ying. She was very young, but her identity was not simple. If Zhuhai Cave had not produced a pure young girl at the age of a girl, then she would have been one of the ten young candidates in the world.
The youngest one.
On a mountain top, the restriction is the true meaning of the warrior's hard work and fist.
Moreover, this fist intention coincides with the changes of the sun and the moon in the day and night. During the day, the fist gang is masculine and vigorous, but when the moonlight is like water splashing on the ground, it turns into a feminine and delicate fist gang.
Generally speaking, only Ascension monks and Terminus warriors can climb mountains.
Of course, there are exceptions. Maybe it is because their hard work pays off. In recent years, a few people who are not very advanced still sneak up the mountain. Of course, it has something to do with their hard work and their unwillingness to hurt innocent people.
Wufu Xinxin has an indescribable affinity for human beings. Except for people, especially monks.
Working hard to live alone in a thatched cottage here, this unkempt young warrior is thin, bearded, and slovenly. He has no idea where he came from or where he is going.
When I was young, I seemed to be able to remember things. All my previous memories were blank. I was walking on the Mizhou Plain in a daze. Just because I could see the high mountain when I raised my head, I felt close to it, so I walked all the way to the weak water.
He didn't feel tired at all. It was only a long time later that the child realized his strangeness. It turns out that not everyone can refine Qi just by breathing. Just by walking on foot, the Fist Intention comes to the body on its own and continues to grow, as if there is no end.
My only hobby is making ink. This process does not delay the hard work of practicing boxing.
Previously, under the nose of Xun Xin, a young man and woman who looked like immortals and Taoist monks went hiking with a dog.
Hard work didn't care about it at first. No matter what the immortal method was, since it was his ability to go up the mountain, as long as he didn't stay at Leap Moon Peak for too long, Hard work usually wouldn't care.
I just glanced at the handsome man in flowing white clothes, as if he was in a state of being out of body and traveling far away.
As for the young female cultivator on the side who seems to be not as good-looking as the men, it is obvious that she has good qualifications. According to Lu Chen, there are always a small number of favored ones. Others are climbing mountains, and they "come to me from the mountain"
.
The ancient pine trees in the mountains are lush and green. Walking on the road, visitors are all dressed in green.
Yuan Ying was amazed, "Wow, what a beautiful scenery, beautiful, really beautiful."
Lu Tai held Lu Chen in one hand and held a green bamboo stick in the other, jokingly saying: "You are the only direct descendant taught by Liu Qicao's group. When you see the scenery, all you can do is wow?"
Yuan Ying smiled and said: "You are here, it's not my turn to drag the text."
She is only in her twenties now. She was born in Ci Pai Blessed Land, also known as "Shiyu Blessed Land". Yuan Ying has two masters, Liu Qi and Cao Zu, who are both Haoran monks who have traveled to the Qingming world. The masters have returned to their hometowns.
.Although Yuan Ying is in the Jade Pu Realm, she is not a Taoist official. When she was listed on the list, she was not yet twenty. She climbed from the Liujin Realm to the Yu Pu Realm in one step.
A few years ago, she and Lu Tai jointly opened a restaurant near the Shijingdukou fish market. Yuan Ying has always regarded herself as the proprietress. Anyone who calls her proprietress will get a 20% discount! If anyone asks her when she will hold a wedding reception, she will get a 40% discount.
!
They just wandered all the way to the top of Leap Moon Peak. At that time, they were hard at work building pine smoke ink in a thatched hut. Lu Tai was holding a green bamboo stick in his arms, leaning against the door, just smiling and not saying anything.
Yuan Ying lost her temper and went straight to the pile of rocks near the cliff. One of the strange stones was floating on another stone, and the four characters "Yanshou Taoist Temple" were engraved on the cliff with red paint. On the top of the mountain, it was known as "The Taoist Resting Place"
"Where", Yuan Ying pointed her toes, floated towards the stepping stone, jumped on it a few times, and laughed to herself.
Lu Tai smiled and said: "Let me introduce myself. The Lu family from China comes from the vast world. My surname is Lu Mingtai. I am of a very low level, but I am very funny and my ability to relieve boredom is unparalleled in the world."
The native dog lay obediently at Lutai's feet.
The young man in the room just sat behind the table and concentrated on making ink.
Lu Tai took out an ink ingot from his sleeve and gently threw it on the table, "The ancient pine trees from Qianyang County in Zhongnan Mountain are made of better material than your ancient pine trees from Leyue Peak. We agreed in advance that we were not giving them away. After reading them, remember
Give it back to me."
The young man glanced at the ingot, nodded and said: "It's really good, and it's well-deserved."
Lu Tai chuckled and said, "You can accept it as long as you like it. You are of a high level, so I will treat it as a rent payment to you, a landlord."
The young man shook his head and just concentrated on pounding the smoke balls repeatedly.
Lu Tai asked: "In addition to the home-brewed pine flower wine, is there anything to eat on the mountain?"
Judging from the appearance, it can only be pine nut, potato and poria. Will the taste be too bland?
Work hard and keep silent.
Lu Tai glanced at an old bamboo flute placed on the table and asked casually: "Still can't beat that Master Lin?"
The hard work turned a deaf ear, and the only sound in the dark room was the sound of the pestle.
Lu Tai lifted up the native dog and said, "Lu Chen, don't be stunned, hurry up and say hello to Brother Xinxin."
The local dog made a dull noise. The food on the mountain was a bit poor and he was a little listless.
Xin Xin raised his head, puzzled.
Why do you, a descendant of the Lu family, compete with your ancestors like this?
After that, Lu Tai stayed shamelessly. It was hard work without hesitation. His good words and persuasion were useless. Even issuing an eviction order didn't work. It was just like carrying a chicken cub. Lu Tai, Yuan Ying, and of course the native
The dog was thrown to the foot of the mountain. As a result, Lu Tai and the others climbed up the mountain again. They tried so hard to teach him a lesson, but the guy fell backwards and fell to the ground. He lay on the ground pretending to be dead until the middle of winter. It was hard to avoid being surprised.
So I asked him what he wanted to do, and Lu Tai said to wait for someone. When Xin Xin asked how long he needed to wait, Lu Tai said that it would be a month at most, and Xin Xin said nothing.
As a result, a month has passed and still no one from Lu Tai has arrived.
Kung Fu wondered if this guy was making up some nonsense so he could eat and drink here. As a result, Lu Tai raised his arms and put his fingers together, "I swear to God, if there is a lie, everyone from our ancestors to my generation will be punished."
Lightning struck, and the sky struck with five thunders!”
The female cultivator named Yuan Ying was still making noises beside her, saying "bang rong rong".
I just told you that I will let you stay for another half month. If I can't wait any longer, I will go down the mountain. You won't even think about climbing mountains in the future. Believe it or not.
The little chicken from Lutai pecked at the rice and agreed readily, then sat on the threshold and said earnestly: "Brother Xinxin, you really can't continue like this in Leyue Peak. One by one, you are using your status to scare people with high realms. When this is the case,
As for the brothel, you can come and go as soon as you want, and it’s all for nothing!”
I glanced hard at this bastard, what about you?
Lu Tai said categorically: "I won't leave!"
Lifting his feet, Lu Zhongzhong stomped his feet, "When you land, you will take root and won't move any further."
In the room, Xinxin said calmly: "Then you'd better have sex for nothing."
Lu Tai clapped his hands and said, "I'm just saying that Brother Xinxin and I are wonderful people. It would be a pity not to be acquainted with each other so well."
"There's only one day left," said Hard Work. If you can't wait for anyone, don't blame me for being rude.
Lu Tai nodded and went to burn incense.
I don’t know if it was an accident or something, but there were actually people climbing the mountain the next day, and there was more than one.
After a hard time, I walked out of the hut and stood side by side with Lu Tai on the cliff, looking towards the foot of the mountain.
Yuan Ying squatted not far away, playing with the dog.
There were three people going up the mountain. Lu Tai smiled and helped introduce them: "Zhang Fenghai of Baiyu Jingyushu City is only half a step away from the Fourteenth Realm. When the heavy rain comes, he will probably cross the remaining half step. It's awesome.
Right. Walking behind Zhang Fenghai is Lv Bixia, one of the candidates in the world, or Nie Bixia, who is almost at the peak of the perfect Ascension Realm. The one who is at the lowest level, but walking side by side with Zhang Fenghai, is a woman from the Immortal Staff Sect.
The Patriarch Shixingyuan, Taoist name is 'Sheyun'... Wow, what a beauty."
Yuan Ying immediately stood up and ran to Lu Tai, "Where is it?"
Lu Tai stretched out his finger and pointed at a woman next to Zhang Fenghai on the mountain road. She was slender, but she wore a wooden hairpin and linen clothes and straw sandals. And because she worked all year round in the Yanxia Cave of Zhenyue Palace, she looked...
She has dark skin and is indeed a beauty, but coming from the mouth of the extremely handsome Lu Tai, it seems that she is not worthy of her name.
Shixingyuan has the lowest level among the three, so he cannot know the conversation on the top of the mountain.
However, Lu Bixia raised her head and looked around. As a result, the indistinguishable guy ran away.
She has disappeared from the Qing Ming world for a long time, and has stayed for a long time, or in other words, hidden in the soul of "Shixingyuan".
As for the master's retreat, it was the Yanxia Cave that he entered using different methods.
After leaving that prison, Shi Xingyuan was secretly glad of course. She never wanted to visit her old place again in her life.
In that Yanxia Cave, the Immortal Realm of Master Xingyuan has been gradually reduced to the Yupu Realm.
The only regret is that the harvest of that wheat field, which was growing so well, was 30% better than in previous years, so we will never see it again.
Lu Tai squatted on the ground, rubbed the native dog's head, raised his head and said with a smile: "Brother Xinxin, why don't we make a bet?"
Hard work shook his head.
Lu Tai is a talkative person. Even if he ignores him, he will keep chattering away. Even though we have been together for so long, he still cannot get used to the hard work.
Lu Tai changed his approach and made a bet with Zhang Fenghai, betting that he would make his wishes come true. After he succeeded, Lu Tai would have to promise him a small thing.
Zhang Fenghai agreed to the matter without hesitation. The monk who voluntarily gave up his identity as a Taoist priest of Bai Yujing did not even ask who the other party was or what the matter was.
Lu Tai was filled with emotion, "As expected of our Sect Master Zhang, he is so majestic. If you follow him, you will definitely have a good meal!"
After that, Zhang Fenghai walked to the top of the mountain, first knocked down a piece of stone from the "Taozu resting place" at the bottom of the mountain, rolled it into the weak water, and then went to the house to talk to Xiuxian.
Not to mention Shi Xingyuan, even Lu Bixia, who had seen strong winds and waves, and Yuan Ying, who was always ambitious, were shocked.
Only Lu Tai's frightened look was fake. He stretched out his thumb towards Zhang Fenghai's back and said, "Sect Master Zhang, you are so domineering!"
Xin Xin was sitting behind the table, with a row of 100,000 pestle ink ingots on the table in front of him. Zhang Fenghai crossed his arms across his chest, leaned against the door, and said, "I plan to use Leap Moon Peak as the location for the sect, what do you think?
"
Xinxin frowned and said, "Let's talk about this after you reach the Fourteenth Realm."
Zhang Fenghai said: "You don't need to be the sect leader, you are not suitable, and you can't be the sect leader, so you only need to put your name on the sect's genealogy, and I will be the sect leader."
Stand up hard.
Zhang Fenghai smiled and said: "
Don't be angry yet, after the Taoist ancestors dispersed, there will be a change in the world of Qingming, you can't avoid it, so instead of waiting, it is better to be the first."
Hard work asked: "Did you make an appointment with Lu Tai in advance?"
Zhang Fenghai shook his head and said, "See you later."
Lu Tai raised his voice and echoed: "Heaven and earth can learn from it!"
Hard-working sneered and said: "If I remember correctly, Taoist ancestors personally said that I have three treasures to hold and treasure. I am kind and thrifty, but I dare not be the first for the world."
Zhang Fenghai was silent for a moment and said, "You're a bit mentally ill."
Lu Tai jumped to his feet and said angrily: "Zhang Zongzhu, you are so presumptuous, don't say that to my hard-working brother!"
Zhang Fenghai smiled and said: "But you have such a good temper that you can tolerate him for so long."
Lu Tai lay on the window sill and explained: "What our Sect Leader Zhang means is not complicated. He means that he has left Bai Yujing. He doesn't even want the Taoist certificate from Yushu City. Now he can't decide whether he is a Taoist priest or not.
.Then there is the golden rule spoken by the Taoist ancestors. It applies to everyone in the Qingming world. Everyone must listen to it. If you are not convinced, you must endure it. It is best to be convinced. But if you don’t have any hard work at all, you can ignore it.
, only you, it happens to be you, that’s why I came here, Sect Master Zhang has the same reason, but my selfishness is more serious, I just want to have a luxurious hospitality place, so that I can meet my friends again in the future, and have face.
Sect Master Zhang is very... fair, he wants to replace Dao Ancestor and make certain things that he feels are wrong go on the right track."
Lu Bixia took a deep breath.
Master Xingyuan's Taoist mind is even more unstable.
If it hadn't been for that guy's revelation, they wouldn't have known what Zhang Fenghai wanted to do.
On the top of the mountain, there are only waves of pines and waves.
It was the same guy who broke the silence, "Sect Master Zhang, after all, this is the resting place of Dao Ancestor. Let's move the stone back to its original position. If you feel shameless, I can ask Sister Lu to go fishing for stones in the weak water together."
Hearing these unsparing words, Lu Bixia, Shi Xingyuan, and Yuan Ying breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time.
Hard work said: "We will discuss this matter after you reach the Fourteenth Realm."
Zhang Fenghai nodded and said: "Okay."
In fact, it is the same sentence with two meanings.
Previously, he said that he would wait until Zhang Fenghai reached the fourteenth realm before fighting again.
The meaning of hard work now is that if you can reach the fourteenth level, you will be qualified to establish a sect at Leap Moon Peak.
Lu Tai rubbed his hands and said: "Okay, as long as we have reached an agreement, we have to celebrate. Why don't we kill the dogs and eat their meat? Stewing dog meat in the winter, the taste..."
Yuan Ying had a disagreement with Lu Tai for the first time and glared: "Lu Tai!"
Lu Tai smiled brightly and said, "I just saw how bored you all are, so I made a joke to relieve your boredom and make you nervous."
After that, the two groups of people settled here.
With Lu Tai around, the two sides quickly became familiar with each other.
Probably except for Bai Yujing, the most recent one here in the world.
In the night, Lu Tai was working hard. Everyone randomly picked a stone to sit on, drank wine each other, and under the leadership of Lu Tai, began to look forward to the future.
The six people who got together out of nowhere worked hard in order. Lu Tai, Yuan Ying, Zhang Fenghai and Lu Bixia were the masters of Xingyuan.
There is a mountaintop with no sect name yet, a pure martial artist, and five Qi practitioners.
According to Lu Tai's idea, the sect leader must be Zhang Fenghai, the master in charge of the law, Lu Bixia, and the person responsible for managing the money is Shi Xingyuan.
Being the chief minister was supposed to be hard work. But the second best martial artist in Qing Ming World simply refused.
So Lu Chen volunteered and did his part, and Yuan Ying took advantage of the situation and became the second enshrinement minister.
"There are ten people in our sect, which is enough. Any more will be useless. Senior sister, why are you glaring at me? I'm not talking about you."
Master Xingyuan said helplessly: "I didn't even look at you, what nonsense are you talking about."
She really didn't think Lu Tai said anything unpleasant.
"Then I misunderstood Senior Sister."
Lu Tai groaned, "Our sect will have a maximum of eleven people in the future. Then every hundred years, one person will be eliminated and another person will be added."
"If you become one of the top ten people in the world and one of the ten candidates, you can stay still. If you become one of the top ten pure warriors in the world, you will also receive the same treatment."
"One day, our sect will all be masters among masters. Stop being dumb and give us some applause."
Zhang Fenghai just raised the wine bottle high.
Lu Bixia was smiling, so, she was really looking forward to it.
Master Xingyuan raised his head and looked at the two bright moons in the sky. He looked full of energy. It seemed that he had to practice hard.
Only Yuan Ying applauded vigorously.
As a result, Lu Tai said something very shocking, "Senior sister, such a bright moonlit night makes your skin look even darker."
Shi Xingyuan laughed angrily and said: "You always have trouble with me. You only know how to pick weak persimmons. If you have the ability, you can talk to Lu Bixia!"
Lu Tai said shyly: "This statement is a bit too charming and can easily be misunderstood."
Master Xingyuan sneered: "You're just a talkative guy."
Lu Bixia nodded and said: "She looks fierce but has a weak heart. I guess she will have to say 'let me rest for a while' in just a few moments."
Lu Tai clasped his hands and said, "I'm afraid of you, so I'll admit defeat."
Zhang Fenghai laughed.
Xin Xin's face was tense, and there was a smile in his eyes.
Lu Tai raised his head and took a deep sip of wine and wiped his mouth, "The ancient sages are the substitutes of heaven and earth. The heroes of today are the manifestation of the stars. I have the honor to drink with you tonight. It's not enough, it's far from enough. Let's meet on this day of the month a thousand years later."
If you drink again, I will get drunk first!"
There was a bang.
It turned out that Lu Tai fell asleep on his back.
Yuan Ying said awkwardly: "My husband tastes very good wine, but his drinking capacity is average."
On the top of the capital city of Great Li, beside an old man who was admiring the scenery, Xun Qu, who came here confused, stopped, cupped his hands and said, "Xun Qu, the lower official, has met Mr. Hong."
The slender-looking old man nodded in greeting and said with a smile: "I called you here temporarily because someone has just arrived in Beijing, and it would be more appropriate for you to show up to receive him."
The old man did not wear official uniforms. In fact, except for attending court meetings, this official, who holds the fifth-grade official position of the Ministry of Rites and worships the chief official of the Qing Dynasty Department, does not need to be so restrained.
This is a special case in the officialdom of Da Li. There are a lot of Langguan in the capital, and there are only three of them, which are most consistent with the reputation of being both pure and noble. In addition to the Examination Department of the Ministry of Personnel and the Martial Arts Selection Department of the Ministry of War, there is also the Temple of Rites for the old man.
It's time to worship the Qing officials. In name, the two ministers of the Ministry of Rites can jointly decide the merits and demerits of the various landscape gods in the Great Li Dynasty. But the one who really takes care of the specific matters is actually the temple to worship the Qing officials. Therefore, the old man's prominent position is
He is called "Little Heavenly Official".
Xun Qu asked in his heart: "Master, does this person have anything to do with Mr. Chen?"
The old man nodded and pointed to a young foreign monk walking on the street, "His name is Zeng Ye. He actually does not belong to the Luopo Mountain monks, but when Chen Ping'an was in Shujian Lake, he always took Zeng Ye with him. He was Qingxia
The island's next-door neighbor, through luck and hard work, Zeng Ye is now the leader of the Five Islands Faction. He is at the top of an immortal mansion. Therefore, his route to Beijing this time and the intelligence from the Ministry of Punishment have long been known.
He sent it to our temple to offer sacrifices to the Qing Li Department. Because he has such a relationship with Chen Ping'an, I think it is better for you to come forward. The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishments didn't say much, and they didn't have much objection. They only did it once or twice.
Just treat it as a default rule for all yamen, which is pretty good."
Xun Qu smiled and said: "If the objection is not big, there are still objections."
The old man twitched his lips and said, "Every government office is following the rules. It doesn't matter. No one has any selfishness."
Wu Yuan is now the governor of Chuzhou. He is not only the son-in-law of the Yuan family of Shangzhu Kingdom, but also one of the few students of Cui Chan, the national master.
The new kiln superintendent who succeeded Cao Gengxin was Jian Feng, who was in the fourth rank. Si Jingkuan, the former Qing official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, recently left the capital to serve as the prefect of Baoxi County.
There were always quarrels and quarrels between the imperial court and the yamen, and the Shanshui officialdom was no exception.
Xun Qu asked: "Master, am I going to see Master Zeng right now?"
The old man said: "Impatient! Don't you know how to wait a little longer? He just entered the capital with the front foot, and you blocked the way with the back foot. Isn't this a clear way to tell Zeng Ye that the court is watching his whereabouts?"
Xun Qu smiled and said, "I said that on purpose. I haven't heard Master's teachings for a long time."
The old man couldn't help but laugh. Not long ago, Xunqu was just a ninth-grade junior official in Honglu Temple who temporarily took charge of the temple repair work in the capital city in Nanxunfang.
Even in the capital city of Li, he would not be called an official.
Now Xun Qu has been transferred to the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War and has been promoted. However, this promotion is not without warning. As early as when he served as the preface of Honglu Temple, Xun Qu was able to take charge of both the Beijing Temple Affairs Department and the Tibetan Affairs Department.
In addition to the official affairs of the office, Xun Qu followed the Lord Chen Shan of Luo Lu Mountain when he came to Beijing, so he just moved up one level and became the ninth rank without any disturbance.
That's why the preacher of Xunqu, when he was drinking with his disciples over the Changpu River, would joke that Master Chen was still unjust and didn't even know how to say hello to the officials. He should have jumped three levels in a row.
Otherwise, you will not be able to live up to the official prestige of Lord Yin Guan. All joking aside, from the perspective of this old man who has been in charge of the temple of the Ministry of Rites to worship officials of the Qing Dynasty for many years, Xun Qu, a young man, is destined to continue to be a constant influence among the various ministries and offices of the imperial court.
For those who circulate, starting from Honglu Temple, each position will not last long in the future, ranging from three to five years to one or two years.
Of course, the official position will become higher and higher.
This involves an inside story that Xun Qu still doesn't know. In fact, it is a "promotion plan" arranged by Cui Chan, the national advisor.
Xun Qu's intuition was right. Cui Guoshi, who liked to see many "little things" personally, not only knew about him, but also kept an eye on him.
Xun Qu once made an unintentional remark, saying that he was a "poor guy who couldn't keep any money", and he hit the nail on the head.
He is the reincarnation of a god.
Therefore, the Dali court would always "send away the poor". That's why Xunqu, who was born as a Jinshi scholar, stayed in the famous Qingshui Yamen of Honglu Temple for so long.
The old man once personally asked Cui Guoshi, is it really useful? Cui Chan smiled and replied, it must be useful. Although it is not very useful, over time, it is still considerable.
Xun Qu bowed his hands and left, but the old man nodded in greeting.
On the street, Zeng tucks his parcel across his body and takes a walk alone, admiring the bustling scene of the great Li capital city.
Zeng Ye had to persuade Ma Duyi not to follow him to Beijing.
Ma Duyi began to find all sorts of excuses that were not excuses. After all, Master Zeng was a ghost cultivator and was not popular in the mountains. You were going to the most virtuous place in the country in the Great Li Dynasty without her help.
, for someone like you who is clumsy and clumsy, you can't explain anything clearly when you encounter it, and trivial things can easily turn into big things...Zeng Ye couldn't laugh or cry. First of all, the Wudao Sect is an official sect recognized by the Dali Imperial Court and documented by the Ministry of Rites.
, Furthermore, Zeng Ye also has a piece of peace and tranquility tablet, although it is of the lowest grade, but its gold content is so high that it can really bring peace and tranquility in this Aquarius Continent, and it will be fine if anything happens.
Ma Duyi also knew that she was making trouble unreasonably. Seeing Zeng Ye's unusual insistence, she had to give in and let Zeng Ye go to the Liulic Square in the capital and help her buy some books and antiques that she could double if she could resell them.
Zeng Ye slowed down his pace slightly and soon returned to his normal pace.
I saw a young man standing in front of the road. He was probably a Beijing official. Whether he was an official or not, Zeng Ye could tell at a glance, but this young official had more of a bookish air about him.
Xun Qu cupped his hands and said softly: "Master Zeng, my name is Xun Qu. I work in the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War. I just got the news and left the government office to come to see you."
Zeng Ye was confused and returned the courtesy. Since he didn't know the specific official position of the other party, he didn't say anything more.
Pedestrians were walking in a hurry on the road, and Xun Qu and Zeng Ye turned sideways to give way almost at the same time.
In order to avoid the other party's misunderstanding, Xun Qu explained the reason to Zeng Ye straightforwardly, and used words that revealed his identity as a Qi practitioner, "I was working as an errand at Honglu Temple before, because I was working with Mr. Chen's student Cao Qinglang.
, they were in the same year as the imperial examination, and they were also friends, so the last time Mr. Chen came to Beijing, Honglu Temple asked me to be responsible for the reception. In fact, I didn’t do much from the beginning to the end, but thanks to Mr. Chen’s credit, I won several awards at Liulicang.
This is an expensive rare ancient book. The imperial court has long known about the relationship between the Five Islands Sect and Mr. Chen, so when you showed up in the capital this time, the Honglu Temple considered it and decided to let me be responsible for the reception. It belongs to the officialdom.
Inter-department secondment, working as a coolie, no pay."
After all, it involved some unknown officialdom insider information, and Xun Qu did not tell the truth completely. After all, he was in the public domain and could not help himself.
Zeng Ye once again raised his hands and thanked him: "Thank you, Lord Xun."
After that, the two of them walked together. Zeng Ye, the leader of one faction, spoke to Master Xun. Xun Qu couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master Zeng, you don't have to be so polite. Just call me by my name. If it doesn't work, Brother Xun can't."
OK."
Zeng Ye smiled and said, "Master Xun also always calls me Master Zeng."
Xun Qu nodded and said, "Then let's all change our words and call him by his first name."
Zeng Ye grinned and said, "This is a good thing."
Xun Qu asked: "When you arrive in the capital, are there any places you want to go?"
Zeng Ye nodded and said, "Before I came here, I made a list of twenty places to visit."
Xunqu said: "Do you have relatives, friends and a place to stay? If you don't have one for the time being, I can help arrange accommodation. The official residence of Honglu Temple is definitely not shabby, but no matter how good it is, it is definitely not available. The advantage is that
No need to spend money, I can lead the way to a relatively famous big inn in the capital, there is one nearby, but with my little salary, I would never dare to brag about Haikou and say that food and accommodation are included."
Zeng Ye smiled and said: "No, no, Mr. Chen helped recommend a place. It's an Xianjia Inn in Beijing. I know the specific address and plan to stay there."
Mr. Chen said in the letter that the innkeeper's name is Gaiyan, and you can stay there without spending any money.
In addition, Mr. Chen also asked Zeng Ye to go to a street. At the entrance of an alley outside Renyun Yiyun Building, if you sign up for your number, you can see an old Nascent Soul Immortal named Liu Gao and a man from the Zhao family in Tianshui.
As a young man, you can also let the latter take Zeng Ye to travel around the capital together. Mr. Chen is always meticulous in doing things. He has written clearly in the letter how to get to the alley from the inn.
Zeng Ye hesitated for a moment. Even though he didn't know the details of officialdom, he also knew that people had good intentions and it would be against the rules to let them go back home.
Unexpectedly, Xun Qu nodded and said: "Since Mr. Chen has already made arrangements, I won't have to worry about anything. If you have anything, just go to the Arsenal Office to find me."
Xun Qu took out a pocket sword box with the word "天" engraved on it from his sleeve and handed it to Zeng Ye.
It comes in handy again.
Xun Qu stopped and said with a smile: "I won't follow you. I'll seize the opportunity to take a break from my busy schedule and go to Liulicang to read. It's annoying just to read and buy. I have to change bookstores frequently."
Zeng Ye said tentatively: "Can I make an appointment with you later and go to Liulichang together? A friend asked me to help buy books. I don't know anything about it. I will probably only get scammed out of money."
Xun Qu nodded and said, "It's all official business."
Zeng Ye grinned, Mr. Xun, who served in the Ministry of War, was somewhat similar to Mr. Chen, but of course they were just similar. There was only one Mr. Chen in the world.
Xun Qu said in his heart: "How to calculate the toll?"
Zeng Ye was stunned for a moment. After all, he had been under the influence of Mr. Chen for a long time, and immediately said: "It must be at least three books that Mr. Xun fell in love with but couldn't take back!"
Xun Qu smiled and said goodbye.
Zeng Ye bowed his hands and said goodbye.
Looking at Xun Qu's back, I feel he looks a bit more like Mr. Chen.
Later, Zeng Ye found the Xianjia Inn. If Mr. Chen hadn't written such a detailed letter, he might not have been able to find it. He knocked on the door and saw two young female nuns who were waiting for the guests. A little further away, there were two more who walked around.
After passing the screen wall, there were two other people. They were very enthusiastic and naturally handsome. They looked like butterflies in a pile of makeup. They spoke warmly and spoke like a young master. They belonged to the immortal master, but Zeng Ye felt a little uncomfortable.
, hesitated for a moment, and did not say that he was Mr. Chen's friend, nor did he ask the innkeeper if "Gaiyan" was there. Zeng Ye honestly paid a deposit and settled in.
After Zeng Ye entered the guest room.
Gaiyan was in her room, crossing her legs, looking through her account books and making calculations. It was good, good, and her business was booming.
Lord Yin Guan does business, and he really has a few tools. He just helped provide a few ideas, and the business of the inn immediately improved.
Zeng put the package away, thought about it, put it back again, left the inn, and looked for the alley.
In the alley outside Renyun Yiyun Building, two masters and apprentices, Liu Gao and Zhao Duanming, were having nothing to do. They were inside the Luosike Dojo, one was drinking and the other was eating salted peanuts.
The old man was a little regretful. Since Chen Ping'an left the capital, his alley has not been so lively.
The first time the Master of Literature came here in person, neither the master nor the disciple recognized it. After all, it was quite different from the image on the statue hanging in the Confucian Temple.
Later... the ceremonial saint also came!
Fortunately, Zhao Duanming had good eyesight. He must have been struck by lightning too many times, and his cleverness prevented the old Yuanying from being rude.
After that, more characters came one after another, some that the old man could not even dream of, and some were unfamiliar faces.
For example, here at the alley entrance, there was a man called Li Xisheng who claimed to be from Huaihuang County, Longzhou. He was from the same hometown as Chen Pingan. So what? Stop.
Before that, there was a burly old Taoist priest, accompanied by a young Taoist boy who was his follower.
These two Taoist priests, who looked like masters and apprentices, were sneaking into the alley. Could Liu Gao not stop them? They had to stop them.
Of course, there is also Mr. Zheng from Baidicheng.
Fortunately, the old monk has seen a series of "big winds and waves". His realm is not high, but he has succeeded in cultivating his mind. His Nascent Soul Taoist heart has been honed as hard as a rock!
After Zheng Juzhong left, the master and the disciple, one old and one young, looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
At that time, it was the old man who said, "Duan Ming, you seem a little nervous. When you call Mr. Zheng, your teeth seem to be chattering?"
The young man didn't refute anything, but pointed at the old man's forehead, "Master, wipe your sweat quickly, it's raining."
Today, the old man picked up a salted peanut and threw it into his mouth, and said: "Duan Ming, do the math and see if there are any important people who haven't come to our place to order peanuts."
The young man squatted on the ground and said angrily: "Master, please give me a thumbs up. You've been a little swollen recently, please control yourself."
The old man took a sip of wine and exclaimed, "Here comes someone. Duan Ming, please open your eyes wide. Isn't it some great mountain master?"
Zhao Duanming turned around and saw that he was a young monk who had been dusted with work. He shook his head and said, "I don't know him. Anyway, there are no statues hanging in the Confucian Temple and the Martial Arts Temple that match the title."
The old man yelled, and when the boy lowered his head and reached out to grab the salted peanuts, there was not a single one left.
Zeng Ye stood at the entrance of the alley, cupped his hands and said in his heart: "Zeng Ye of the Five Islands Sect has been with Mr. Chen for a while. Mr. Chen asked me to come here to find Master Liu Laoxian and Master Zhao Xiaoxian."
When Liu Ga heard this, he was in a good mood. Chen Ping'an had some skills and knew that he could be protected in the capital, so he asked his friends to come here and say hello.
After opening the ban on the dojo, Liu Ga stood up, returned the gift with his hands, and said with a smile: "Little brother, come in and chat."
Zeng Ye walked into this white jade dojo, and according to Mr. Chen's explanation in the letter, he told the old immortal master about his plans for this trip to the capital.
Zhao Duanming was very happy and suggested that Zeng Ye come and visit Yichi Lane and Chier Street which were not on the list. Although it was not interesting, it would be even less interesting not to go there.
Liu Kao stroked his beard and asked with a smile: "Zeng Ye, where do you plan to live?"
Zeng Ye said it was the Xianjia Inn.
Liu Gao asked doubtfully: "You are so rich, where do you go to spend your money? Now everyone in the capital is talking about that place, the pigs that specialize in killing foreign monks, and try different ways to get money, so you have to take it easy."
Zhao Duanming nodded vigorously, "Brother Zeng, it's true. I heard that there used to be a bleak situation with few people and few people, but now for some reason, it's so great that it kills pigs to death."
Zeng Ye didn't know how to answer for a while.
Liu Gao said: "It's strange. The last time Chen Ping'an came to the capital, he didn't live there himself. How could he trick you into spending unjust money there? Is there a bonus?"
Zhao Duanming whispered: "That's not the case, Brother Chen is a brilliant scholar."
Zeng Ye quickly changed the subject and asked: "Master Liu, may I ask where Mr. Chen lived last time?"
Liu Gao raised his chin, "It's just a few steps away from here, the Shijing Inn. It's a bit shabby, but it doesn't cost a lot of money. I think Chen Pingan is very used to it."
Zhao Duanming smiled and said: "I heard from Shopkeeper Liu that Brother Chen also bought a piece of porcelain from him."
Zeng Ye became more and more curious, thought about it, and said, "I'll go over there and have a look."
Liu Gao nodded and said: "When you get here, everything is casual. Duan Ming looks stupid, but in fact he is not a bad person. Just remember to be careful when walking with him on the road, especially when it is raining and thundering, try to stay away from this child.
Stay away."
Zhao Duanming said angrily: "Master, how could you bury your disciples like this?! When did you get struck by lightning and accidentally injure someone else, ah?!"
Liu Gan nodded, "That's right."
Zeng Ye was confused, but he still clasped his fists and left.
When Zeng Ye left the dojo, Zhao Duanming patted his head and remembered something, "I almost forgot, I promised to find a book for that girl's film, so sad! Not to mention the capital, booksellers from all over the world have stopped printing such books.
Where can I look for this travelogue? Cao Gengxin, the bastard, promised to help me look for it, but he still has no news, and he is also unreliable..."
Zeng Ye quickly found the inn, where the old shopkeeper was cleaning the counter with a feather duster.
The shopkeeper named Liu saw the young man at the door and asked with a smile: "Sir, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
Zeng Ye had carefully looked at the front hall of the inn. Apart from the porcelain on the counter, there seemed to be nothing surprising. Mr. Chen had stayed here before, probably because it was away from the alley. Zeng Ye smiled and said: "That's it.
Passing by."
The old shopkeeper nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
Since the door is open for business, those who come and go are also guests.
Over there in the alley, a guy with a shiny wine gourd hanging from his waist was leaning against the alley wall, raising his hand, shaking an old book, and said with a smile: "Zhao Duanming, come here and kowtow to Brother Cao to thank you."
Zhao Duanming grabbed the book and said, "Thank you so much. It took so long to get such a trivial matter done. How can you be the minister... you're the uncle!"
It turned out that the young man discovered that only the cover of the book was correct, and the inside was basically a book by a sage.
Cao Gengxin burped and reached out to hold the young man's head, "Okay, we happened to meet him on the road, and the book has been given to Miss Liu."
Zhao Duanming was doubtful, "Seriously?!"
Cao Gengxin patted the young man on the head and said, "Go play in the mud while your master and I have something serious to talk about."
Zhao Duanming staggered, thinking about it, and felt that if this guy Cao Gengxin was not a good person, he would not play tricks on him like this. Then the young man saw the bastard who said he wanted to talk about business, and started to hook up with his master and start drinking.
Already.
Zeng Ye apologized slightly and walked out of the inn.
Now that all the money has been spent, Zeng Ye still plans to stay in the Xianjia Inn.
On the street, a young girl was walking happily. She actually lowered her head and read a book while walking.
Haha, I finally got it! The book I have been thinking about for so long.
Although I have actually read the content of this landscape travelogue a long time ago, is it still the same if there is a book or not?
I used to go to bookstores with my friends and read a few pages today and a few tomorrow. It was frustrating!
The girl who had been away from home all day was worried that if she entered the shop, she would have to be scolded by her father and might even be served by a feather duster, so she simply squatted by the wall and flipped through the books.
The girl stretched out a hand to block the sunlight so as not to dazzle her eyes while reading.
She was fascinated by the book. After reading many pages in one breath, she finally noticed something was wrong. It seemed that the sun was out. She rubbed her eyes and looked up, only to find a strange man standing nearby.
It seemed that his shadow just blocked part of the light, but did not delay her from reading in the sunshine.
In fact, most of her thoughts were still immersed in the landscape story of that novel, so when she raised her head, she was still a little confused.
In the past, her first thought would have been to meet someone who was a traitor, but after meeting the customer named Chen last time, she felt that it was not good to misunderstand others like this.
When young girls read books, they like to mutter and talk to themselves, saying that the Chen Ping case in the book is too romantic. How can he fall in love with a girl when he meets one?
But girls like to jump through the pages of books and read. Anyway, the content and plot are already familiar by heart, so they will choose those passages that are deeply memorable, which may be some beautiful sentences, such as the wisdom in this life in the book. You can learn from reading in the past life, and you will have good luck in the next life.
Blessed, I left reading in this life... I saw it again today. Since it is already her own book, the girl gently folded the pages. It may also contain some content that makes me sad when I look at it, such as in
Near the end of the story, the young man in the book who practiced ghost ways never told the girl he loved that he actually liked her.
The girl blinked her eyes.
That strange man, for some unknown reason, kept turning his head and looking across the street for a long time.
The former young man who had walked all the way from Shujian Lake to where he is today had a sullen face at the moment, trying very hard not to look at her.
Maybe it was because my face was full of tears that I was afraid of scaring her. Maybe it was because I didn’t know how to speak, so I almost passed her by.
The girl closed the book with a bang and sighed. It's a pity that there is no sequel to this book.
Then she didn't even know that the boy later found his beloved girl Su?
She stood up and tiptoed to go home, but after a moment's hesitation, the girl said thank you to the strange and strange man in a low voice.
The man raised his arm, probably to wipe the sweat, coughed a few times, turned his head and looked at her, and the first thing he said was, "May I ask this girl, is there an inn nearby?"
The girl is stunned, what should I do? Don’t be a fool!
Just a few steps away, can't you see the signboard of your inn?
The girl sighed, raised her arm, pointed to the plaque of her inn with the book in her hand, "It's right here."
Zeng Ye smiled brightly and said, "Okay, thank you."
The girl always felt that this matter was mysterious. After thinking about it seriously, she figured it out! Without being in a hurry to go home, she pretended to walk along the wall in the opposite direction of the inn.
Zeng Ye walked towards the inn and turned his head, and the girl just turned her head too.
Zeng Ye stopped and said hoarsely: "My name is Zeng Ye."
The girl blinked her eyes.
Could it be that he has the same name as the Zeng Ye in the book?
The girl hesitated for a moment, turned around and walked towards him, waved her hand and picked up the book, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, the inn is my home."
Zeng Ye nodded vigorously, "It's a coincidence."
They are reunited after a long separation both inside and outside the book.
