If you can't be a son-in-law, you have to be sanctified

Chapter 188

Nanlao Guogong sat in the small pavilion on the mountain stream, looking at the white-clothed boy in front of him.

The host Shi Nu was pouring tea for the two of them.

The golden flame imprint in Lu Jingmei's heart was faintly visible, and it also exuded surging power, as if imprinting that third-rank banner into Lu Jing's body.

Lu Jing sat and drank tea, occasionally turning his head to look at the distant scenery.

The Jokhang Mountain in winter has a special beauty. The green trees and white snow complement each other. It is obviously white but dotted with greenery. This place...is a good place to drink tea and practice meditation.

Lu Jing came to the Jokhang Temple, apart from visiting Uncle Chongshan when the New Year was approaching, the second reason was to meet the abbot Shi Nu of the Jokhang Temple.

The presiding officer of Shi Nu has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and his white beard and hair move slightly with the breeze.

Lu Jing came to see him, and the host of Shi Nu just happened to catch up with Nanlao Guogong, so there was a scene in the small pavilion.

Nanlao Guogong is not tall, and his face looks a little old, but he is wearing gold and silver, and he has a luxurious look.

He looked at Lu Jing in front of him thoughtfully.

Lu Jing, on the other hand, was looking at Shi Nu as the host.

"Mr. Lu Jing wants to move the dead mother's bones to Jokhang Mountain?"

There seemed to be a unique power contained in the voice of the Shi Nu host. The voice was pleasant to the ear, and it made people feel at ease.

Lu Jing saluted Shi Nu presiding. The etiquette was quite thoughtful, and he said: "The Taixuan capital is too noisy, and monsters often appear on Jiaoshen Mountain. When my mother was alive, she used to talk to herself under the moonlight, looking for a quiet place. place to bury."

"Because of this, Lu Jing specially came to visit the host of Shi Nu, hoping to find a quiet place for his mother in the continuous Jokhang Mountain."

Lu Jing didn't hide anything, and immediately said frankly: "My mother never ate fast and worshiped the Buddha when she was alive. If there were such regulations in the Jokhang Temple, Lu Jing would not force it."

Host Shi Nu shook his head, and handed the tea he made himself to Duke Nan and Lu Jing.

"The Jokhang Mountain is vast, and it is not owned by the Jokhang Temple. The green hills, flowing water, and even the forests here are just embellishments in this quiet world.

If Mr. Lu Jing wants to bury his deceased mother here, as long as he doesn't bury her in the gate of the Jokhang Temple, he doesn't have to come to ask me, he can do whatever he wants. "

Lu Jing bowed to Shi Nu and said, "Although the Jokhang Mountain is not owned by the Jokhang Temple, the Jokhang Temple has been taking care of this quiet place for many years.

The caretaker is not the master, but after all, he is familiar with this mountain. It is Lu Jing's courtesy to inquire about it. "

There was a smile on the corner of the host Shi Nu's mouth. He looked at the Zhu pattern between Lu Jing's eyebrows, and some admiration flashed in his eyes.

"A little bit of awe-inspiring energy, condensing the wishes of thousands of souls, and merging the remaining power in that third-rank banner, turned into this blessing pattern, which amazes me as the acme of perfection."

"In a way, this wish pattern is like a life."

"Master, can you see through this wish pattern?" Lu Jing thought for a moment and said, "This wish pattern represents the lives of thousands of people. It is Lu Jing's good fortune that they wish Lu Jing with their own thoughts."

Shi Nu presided over and said: "I have read Buddhist scriptures for a long time, and I happened to see some records. This wish pattern is quite strange, and there are not many people who know it, even in Taixuanjing."

Lu Jing nodded.

When he came to the Jokhang Temple today, he was able to meet Buddha disciple Lian'e, and Lian'e just happened to perceive the black mist suppressed by Lu Jing's primordial spirit.

The black mist came out of the big banner... Lu Jing used the light-supporting sword intent, arrogance, and the spirit of spring thunder to bring those innocent souls back to clarity, so that they don't have to carry evil and dissipate into the sky.

For those souls, this is an opportunity.

For Lu Jing, it was a great opportunity.

The bright green opportunity that Lu Jing obtained from the Thunder Trial of Law should be here.

The old man on the side was silent all the time, until at this moment his eyes fell on Lu Jing's eyebrows, and he looked down at the two treasures on his waist.

Watched for a few breaths of time.

Nan Laoguo finally said: "Lu Jing, you won the first three trials in front of the palace, and you have a lot of talent, why don't you want to be an official in the court?
Although you enforce the law and have extraordinary authority, but after all, you are alone after all.

Dali Temple, Ministry of Punishment, and Taoist governments in various places will not be ordered by you because of the thunder of this law... You are still young, and the speed of your cultivation is amazing, but after all, you cannot rule the world by yourself. "

Old Nan's eyelids drooped, and he seemed a little puzzled.

Lu Jing turned his head, smiled at the old Duke Nan, and said, "Grand Duke, there are countless powers in this world, but if you enter the court and enter the bottomless vortex, you will not have such freedom. .

Under the thunder of the law, I can still walk the world with a sword, but if I enter the whirlpool, I may only be bound by many rules and not be free. "

Lu Jing's expression remained the same as before, and so did the way he looked at Nanlaogong.

Old Nan drank the tea presided over by Shi Nu, and said abruptly: "This is the first conversation between you and me. I thought that you had some feelings towards the people in Nan Guo's mansion in your heart. resentment.

I never thought that you would be so calm when you came in front of me. "

Lu Jing said: "Since being an ordinary person naturally has greed, hatred and ignorance in his heart, how can Lu Jing be free from the vulgar?

But looking at the road ahead now, the vast majority of people in the Nanguo government are no strangers to Lu Jing, if they are always obsessed with this matter, how can they be diligent all the time? "

When Lu Jing spoke, he didn't dodge his eyes, and looked straight into Nanlaogonggong's eyes.

Nan Laoguo seems to have realized something...

Only when the weak look up, will they worry about many things.

And when the strong enough to look at the clouds, they will become much more magnanimous.

Although Lu Jing is young...but the courage in his heart can already look at the Nanguo government.

At the same time, Duke Nan also knew the reason why Lu Jing was open-minded.

The Nanguo government had already become the laughing stock of Xuandu because of the repeated postponement of the marriage contract.

Now that Lu Jing is outstanding, the Nanguo government will be embarrassed.

Even in the wine shops on the street, many people talked about this past event after dinner.

Coupled with the friendship between Nan Fengmian and Lu Jing, Nan Guo's government, Lu Jing's current thoughts will come into being.

"Maybe that's a good thing."

Nan Laoguo thought of Nan Fengmian in his heart: "Once a strong man with anger rises up, he will always settle the details of the past.

Now... Lu Jing seems to despise the Nanguo government, and feels that the Nanguo government is a stranger to him, but that's fine. "

Nan Laoguo was thinking about this, and a gust of cold wind blew... He suddenly couldn't restrain himself, and coughed a few times.

Elderly people...are so troubled in their hearts that they will become timid about many things.

The former Nanlao Duke was Dafu Juyue, who once sent an envoy to the Sea Demon Kingdom and brought a sea mountain. If he was young and energetic, even if Lu Jing was such a proud man, he would never have thought of it.

But now that he is getting old, he always thinks about the family business of the Nanguo government in his heart, and sometimes he becomes like an old man in an ordinary family.

But... the whole body of the big Fu Juyue in front of him is still vigorous, he sits casually in the small pavilion, even though he is not tall, he is like an immovable mountain.

A random glance at Lu Jing made Lu Jing's soul tremble a little.

Lu Jing didn't stay in this kiosk for a long time, he got the promise of Shi Nu host, said goodbye and left.

His white clothes fluttered in the cold wind.

Hosted by Shi Nu, Duke Nan looked at Lu Jing's back from a distance.

After a few breaths, the presiding officer Shi Nu uttered a Buddha's name: "When you attain Bodhi, your body is like glass, clear inside and out, pure without blemish, bright and upright.

Mr. Lu Jing was able to ignite the Great Ming King's Divine Fire, cultivate a noble spirit, and if he could help Guang Chunlei, if he could... not die, he would have a grand atmosphere after all.

Perhaps, as many people have rumored, Dafu will have one more thing to be proud of.

There will be nine top nine leaders in the world, and there will be a tenth person. "

Nanlaogong was silent.

However, the host of Shi Nu sighed: "Nowadays, the strong men standing across the sky and the earth all walked out of the murder.

Mr. Lu Jing is very talented, but in my eyes, he is full of crises.

The seventh prince has the appearance of double pupils, Li Guanlong is taciturn, but there are always thunders in silence, his blood can overwhelm a real dragon, his martial arts heart is very firm, and his ordinary thoughts are like steel.

Lu Jing already has a grudge with the Li family in Xuandu, if Shaozhu Kingdom doesn't take action, it will be like a natural disaster, I don't know if this Mr. Lu Jing... can get over it. "

The presiding officer of Shi Nu is merciful and cannot bear to see killings.

Especially for such an outstanding young man, but because of the vortex in Taixuanjing, he has to endure the calamity of killing himself, which made him feel a little more emotional.

Old Nan's eyelids moved, and he suddenly remembered that his sixth son, who was extremely righteous, was very close to Lu Jing.

If Lu Jing encounters a crisis, with Nan Fengmian's temperament...

Old Nan thought of the Seventh Prince, and then Li Guanlong, but this time... the old Duke didn't think much about it anymore.

"Since Feng Mian has this idea, let him do it.

Blindly speculating and blindly calculating will be inferior. "

"If you take a wrong step, you have to look back, so as not to take the second wrong step."

It is rare for Lu Chongshan to leave the hut under the Buddha sculpture in the Great Tibet.

He sent Lu Jing all the way to the gate of Jokhang Temple, where Sheng Zi was waiting for him.

"I didn't expect that in the blood of my Jiuhu Lu family, there would be a white robe with a sword."

Lu Chongshan was dressed in Tsing Yi, walking beside Lu Jing: "I occasionally clean the Jokhang Temple on weekdays, and I have heard many pilgrims talking about you.

A lot has happened over the past few months and you have been through a lot.

I myself am free in this Jokhang Temple, I only read Buddhist scriptures and visit Buddhas every day, so you don't have to come and see me. "

Lu Jing didn't hide anything, and said, "Uncle, I'm going to Changning Street today."

Lu Chongshan seemed puzzled.

Lu Jing said bluntly: "The sage has already agreed to my request... I enforce the law and thunder, I have never been an official in the court, and I have won three trials...

My mother educates talents for Dafu, and the court is willing to grant her imperial orders.

And she is still buried in the tomb in Taixuan Jingzhong of the Lu Mansion, after all, something is wrong. "

As Lu Jing said this, many scenes in his mind gradually became clear.

That mother who is always loving and proud is indeed worthy of lying in the green mountains and green waters.

If she hadn't been seriously ill and worried about the young Lu Jing, this mother would never have come to Taixuanjing to live under the fence and suffer many humiliations.

"Today..." Lu Chongshan lowered his head to think for a while, then raised his head and said, "The Lu family owes you mother and son for this matter. They don't raise children, and raise them unfairly. Under the big business of the Lu family, they even treat you harshly. Is it right?" Not from the Lu family."

At this point in Lu Chongshan's words, he suddenly stopped in his tracks: "Uncle may not be long, but I still want to apologize to you on behalf of the Jiuhu Lu family."

"Uncle doesn't have to be like that."

Lu Jingdao: "I came to Taixuanjing when I was eight years old and entered Jiuhu Lu's family. My uncle is no longer there. I spend all day in this Jokhang Temple. Why do I have to apologize to me on behalf of Jiuhu Lu's family?"

He looked indifferent, and said: "In my eyes, there are not many people in Jiuhulu's family who can catch my attention.

But... my mother finally gave birth to me, and finally raised me as a human being. I still remember the harsh treatment of my mother by the old matriarch and Mrs. Zhong, like a frog boiled in warm water...

Although my mother is a woman who paints boats, she is a woman who lives in Huafu Shuyu. She never suffers in daily life, and she is served by maids when she goes in and out. "

"But later, she was seriously ill and had to find a way out for me.

She didn't want to depend on others, but in the end she had to go to Lu's residence.

She doesn't want to be looked down upon by others, but because of the old matriarch and Mrs. Zhong, the maid Tsing Yi in the house never looked at her directly.

She hides from many people in the house, but she can beg Madam Zhong for me because I like horses...

She is a mother, she gave birth to Lu Shenyuan's blood, and she didn't expect anything, she just wanted to find a meal for her child before she died.

This is the same as the mother in the world, simple and noble.

That's why...she didn't deserve to be treated like that. "

In Lu Jing's mind, scenes about his mother kept reappearing.

Although Lu Jing knew in his heart that he was a soul from another world, that stubborn woman had nothing to do with him in essence.

But... When those scenes kept appearing, Lu Jing couldn't help but think of another world and his relatives there.

"No matter where the mothers are, most of the time they are very similar."

Lu Jing took a deep breath, and said to himself silently: "I have made an agreement with you, and today... is the time for me to fulfill the agreement."

-

Shen Xiaobo Mansion on Changning Street!
Today is a good time to clean the households in Lufu, change the portraits of Tianguan, paste couplets, nail peach charms.

Early in the morning, the servants in the mansion started to get busy.

They hung up lanterns, unpacked and washed bedding, and cleaned all kinds of utensils.

The intention is naturally to expel all bad luck, all bad luck, and even many disasters and evil spirits, and pray for good luck in the new year.

Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhu took their maids and walked through the various courtyards, directing the servants to clean up the house thoroughly.

Ning Qiang supported Old Matriarch Ning, and Mallow stood behind them, looking at the new look of the ancient pine courtyard from a distance.

As early as ten days ago, Lu Jing had already consulted Mr. Eleven for a prescription for Ning Qiang.

The prescriptions were all common medicines, which didn't seem so surprising, but because of this prescription, Ning Qiang's complexion really improved a lot, and a little blush appeared on her originally pale complexion.

It's just that today Ning Qiang is a little out of her mind, looking at the gate of Guangu Songyuan frequently, with some worries and conflicts in her eyes.

Madam Ning looked at the ancient pine tree bestowed by the Crown Princess in the ancient pine garden, with a smile on her face: "Maybe it's because of the ancient pine tree, my Lu residence is really getting better and better.

This year the Grand Master returned to the mansion, and there were rumors in the court that the Holy Monarch would reuse him, and the business in Jiangnan showed signs of picking up. Compared with the past few years, it was much better. "

While she was talking, Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhu, who directed the servants to sweep the courtyard, brought their maidservants and the other wives of the Second Mansion to the Guangusong Courtyard.

Mrs. Zhong had a smile in her eyes, and said to Mrs. Ning, "As the saying goes, in the Taoist family, Fu Laozhen's house, Mrs. Tai is the Mount Tai of the Lu Mansion. With you, the lucky stars will naturally shine on the lintel of the Lu Mansion."

Mrs. Zhong is talking here.

Mrs. Zhu of the second mansion lowered her head, her interest was not high.

Xiao Bo, the god of the great palace, has returned, and Lu Qiong is also at home.

But in Mrs. Zhu's courtyard in the second mansion, Lu Feng had already gone to the border, and there was no news. A few days ago, he went to the Jokhang Temple to invite Master Chongshan several times, but Master Chongshan was unwilling to return to the mansion.

For Mrs. Zhu, this New Year's Eve is even more deserted than previous years.

"My Lu Mansion is really getting better and better."

Mrs. Ning was leaning on a deer-shouldered cane, and the luxury of the Lu Mansion could be seen wherever she looked. She sighed like this, and then thought of something, and said with a cold snort, "A few days ago, Taixuanjing ordered his wife to enter the palace together. Palace, to meet the empress.

Afterwards, during the banquet, some of the servants in the same courtyard as me laughed at my Lu family with that Lu scene, which I overheard. "

Mrs. Ning has been brooding over this matter for the past few days.

Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhu lowered their heads, but listened carefully.

After Mrs. Ning returned from the palace, she was extremely annoyed and kept talking about this matter for several days.

Those imperial wives in the palace, when they were whispering to each other, they even bluntly said that the Lu family is unfortunate, the head of the family is absent, the old matriarch is old and stupid, and Mrs. Zhong does not cultivate the virtues of the family.

Because of this, the unicorns who descended from the sky have no virtue to accept them, and want to drive them out of the house.

But now... Lu Jing has become famous in Taixuanjing, not only Mr. Shulou, but also said to be a Primordial Spirit cultivator in the realm of Shenhuo. The right to enforce the law...

I don't know how many big houses in Taixuanjing are coveting Lu Jing to the extreme. Those wives all said that if such an outstanding child came out of their family, they would have to go to Jokhang Temple and Dongwang Guanzhong to fulfill their vows.

After all, in this catastrophe, if one person ascends to the sky, the whole family will take off because of it.

"The Lu mansion grew wings, but they were broken by the stupid people in the mansion. It's especially ridiculous."

"The old man is stupid, and the woman in charge of the house is short-sighted. It's not surprising that such a thing happened."

"The most ridiculous thing is that piece of paper. Qilinzi suffered a calamity, and the Lu family was busy separating the relationship. He was ungrateful and ungrateful. Now it's better..."

……

Those words that day are still echoing in Old Madam Ning's mind.

Thinking of it, Old Madam Ning became very angry.

Mrs. Zhong at the side was as graceful and dignified as before, but her eyes were also filled with anger.

Old Madam Ning tapped on his crutches: "It's still early, everyone in Taixuan Jing said that Lu Jing is a son of a unicorn, and his leaving Lu's residence is a loss to my Lu's residence.

But I feel... that we chased him away was the blessing of the ancient pine, and it was a blessing for us.

He offended the Shaozhu Kingdom and killed the third son of the Li family, and the third son of the Li family was also the counselor of the seventh prince, how could he be good in the future? "

Old Madam Ning snorted coldly: "Let's just live our happy life and take a good look at whether the so-called young leader can put on wings and fly into the sky."

In front of everyone, Mrs. Zhong didn't show any anger in her heart, she just smiled softly at the old matriarch Ning: "Don't let the old matriarch get angry.

This Lu Jing... has nothing to do with the Lu family now, but it's not so ugly.

I have sent someone to repair his mother's tomb, which is considered a kindness from my Lu family..."

Mrs. Zhong is talking.

In the distance, a young boy in Tsing Yi came to report in a hurry.

Madam Ning, Mrs. Zhong, Mrs. Zhu, Ning Qiang...the expression suddenly changed.

Old Madam Ning snorted coldly: "Now that Princess Chong'an is gone, what is this Lu Jing doing in my Lu Mansion again?"
