The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

Although Zhong Wen didn't care about this matter, anyway, he still had some money, besides, the money was picked up, oh no, it was robbed, and it doesn't matter to give these two guys some copper coins occasionally, it's a small thing.

"It's just you two bastards, forget it, do it, I don't believe it if you want to make it big, my brother's banquet, whatever, you have to make it big."

Zhong Wen was also aroused. Anyway, it was just a banquet, and it didn't cost much. At most, he was a little tired.

As for hiring people, in Chang'an City, I don't know many people, except for the doctors in the medical clinics, there are not many people.

Of course, this Cheng Chumo is naturally invited, although there is basically no intersection during this period of time, but what the hell, he is also the first historical celebrity that Zhong Wen came to know in Chang'an.

As for his father, Cheng Yaojin, forget it, he's not in the same age group, if he can't talk, he might as well call his son to have a meal, and that's the end of the relationship.

Next, there was only Li Shan. After all, Zhong Wen still owed Li Shan a favor. If he didn't invite Li Shan for this matter, he would feel sorry for him.

Come down again, it's like no one is there.

Please Li Shimin?

Unless Zhong Wen himself is crazy and invites an emperor to come to this guest house for dinner, how much extravagance does it have to do? As for the officials who try the dishes, I guess Zhong Wen will be bored to death. Forget it, no matter what, Li Shimin He is the emperor, even if he belongs to his uncle, he still has to pay attention.

When Zhong Wen was narcissistic from time to time, sometimes he was quite selfish. He always felt that he was Li Shimin's uncle, and he could walk sideways like that crab in Chang'an City, but he didn't even think about it, who are you?What's your last name?

Zhong Wen in Chang'an City was thinking about the banquet, while Zhong Mugen and his wife were also discussing the banquet in Longquan Village thousands of miles away.

"Miss, do you think our family should do most of the dinner?"

Zhong Mugen didn't have an idea in his mind, he always felt that after his son left, he had no one to make up his mind for him.

"Father, it must be a big deal. Brother is not at home. Now that my younger brother is born, it must be a big deal. This is a great joy."

Xiao Hua stood aside and suggested to her father.

"Well, let's listen to Xiaohua. Xiaohua has also read and read. Naturally, she knows more than you and I."

Xiu listened to her husband's question and what her daughter said. Although she had no idea in her mind, she thought that her daughter knew more about reading and writing than the two of them, so she said aloud .

And the baby in her arms was sleeping soundly, completely unaware that this banquet was organized for him, and even more unaware of how many people in this world were delighted by his arrival.

"Okay, let's make a big deal, but who are we going to hire for this big deal?"

After hearing what his wife said and what his daughter said, Zhong Mugen decided to make a big deal, at most it would cost some money.

"Father, Auntie, I have made a list for you. This is the list. It includes Daoist Li, Taoists in Guanli, and of course, everyone in our village, as well as my grandmother's family. As for Cousin Daying Over there, we will send a message to inform you."

Xiaohua already had a plan in mind for this matter, put the list on the table, and introduced it to her parents.

"It's better to study. You see, Xiao Hua will learn to share things for Mom and Dad, haha."

Seeing her daughter so sensible and well-behaved, Xiu was delighted.

"There are so many people? Then the cost will be a bit high."

Zhong Mugen is also happy to have such a daughter, but he always feels that his daughter's family will become someone else's family after marrying out.Thinking that when his second son grows up, he must let his daughter teach his second son to read and write.

The tradition of thinking is inherent, and the patriarchal thought is deeply ingrained. No one can express anything. After all, in this era, this is the case.

The current Zhong Mugen is pretty good. If Zhong Wen hadn’t been nagging him endlessly in recent years, maybe Xiaohua at this time might have already talked about her marriage, and she was just waiting for Xiaohua’s [-]th birthday. You can marry outside at the age of five.

At this time, in the Longquan Temple on the mountain, Li Daoling was sitting in front of the house, basking in the sun, feeling the sunshine in the spring, which brought him some warmth.

Every day, Li Daoling, apart from his normal kung fu practice, basically stopped doing morning and evening classes.

Time is not forgiving, people are already over 80 years old, and naturally, their health is not as good as before. Now it is good to be able to practice kung fu.

At this moment Li Daoling, although his eyes are closed, but his mind has been stopped in Chang'an.

He was thinking about how his two disciples were doing in Chang'an now, and when they would be able to return to Longquan Temple.

There is no one around me, so I always feel a little unnatural, even if I have been like this for so many years, now, I am not used to it.

Talk about Li Shan.

When Zhong Wen's family letter arrived in Chang'an, some spies in Chang'an city received the letter and it reached his hands, and he handed it directly to the present sage Li Shimin.

However, Li Shimin was still the same as usual, Zhong Wen would naturally have to read the family letter by himself, and there was no need to submit it.

On the other hand, Li Shan couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, so he tore down Zhong Wen's family letter privately, and began to read it.

Afterwards, he passed it on to the following, and also mentioned in passing that there was a happy event in the Taoist leader's family.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Jin Shui to receive such a sentence and relay it to Zhong Wen.

At this time, Li Shan was coming out of the palace city, without guards or guards on patrol, but came alone in the direction of Chang'an County.

After he opened Zhong Wen's letter, he had many doubts in his heart, and wanted to talk to Zhong Wen.

That's why he decided to go to Changshoufang Huilai Guest House, and was going to ask Zhong Wen, so as to solve the many questions in his mind, or even want to get some answers from Zhong Wen.

After half an hour, Li Shan finally came to the gate of Huilai guest house. At this time, Zhong Wen and the others were still in the lobby, as if they were discussing something.

After that, Li Shan stepped into the guest house.

"Commander Li."

After Jin Shui was the first to find out that the person who came in was his top boss, Li Shan, he quickly got up, saluted Li Shan, and stood aside, not daring to make any moves.

"What made Commander Li come here?"

After hearing Jin Shui's shout, Zhong Wen raised his head, and after realizing that it was Li Shan, he asked aloud.

Xu Fu also got up and stood aside. He was already familiar with this commander. Although he didn't meet him, he still knew Li Shan's name.

"You go down first, I have something to talk to the Taoist leader."

Li Shan gave instructions to the two, approached the table, and sat down.

Zhong Wen stared at Li Shan, trying to see something from Li Shan's expression.

Li Shangui is the commander of the imperial guards, and he is usually busy with official duties, so if he can find time to come to the Huilai guest house and have a chat with himself, it must be something.

But this matter made Zhong Wen a little at a loss.

After all, on New Year's Eve, he had taken in a beautiful assassin, and he had admitted it face to face. Zhong Wen felt that Li Shan's visit this time was probably for that beautiful assassin.

But if he really identified himself with the assassin party, then he would have no place to appeal his grievances. This matter was caused by his own lust, and he was powerless to defend himself.

"The Taoist priest has been in Chang'an for several months. I don't know if there is any progress in the medical skills that the Taoist priest has learned?"

After Li Shan sat down, he didn't take long to ask.

"Commander Li is a joke to me. How can there be any great progress in medical skills after a few months of learning. Even if I give me a few years, I may not be able to prescribe prescriptions in a medical clinic."

Zhong Wen said modestly.

"A few days ago, when I was in Chang'an City, I heard that the reputation of the little Daoist priest was second to none. Thinking about it, the medical skills learned by the little Taoist priest have already achieved something."

Li Shan stared at Zhong Wen, and said slowly.

"Commander Li is polite and has a small reputation. That is the wrong love of the people in Chang'an. It is beyond my power. Commander Li came to look for me this time because of medical skills, right? Could it be that someone in Commander Li's family is ill? ?”

When Zhong Wen asked this question, Li Shan felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a dung beetle.

Li Shan himself came here specifically to find Zhong Wen, not to talk about medical skills, but there must be a beginning for this talk, but now, it is really uncomfortable to be blocked.

"The little Daoist was joking, no one in my house is sick, but I came to look for you today, I want to have a good chat with you, I don't have any other intentions, please don't be offended by the little Taoist."

Li Shan responded quickly, and also opened up his original intention of coming here.

"Oh? Then what does Commander Li want to talk to Xiaodao about? If it's about the female assassin, it's really not my intention. You can go and investigate this point."

Zhong Wen was still thinking about the assassin. He always felt that when facing Commander Li, he was inferior and had to be careful when speaking. It was better to get straight to the point and not make any detours.

"Little Daoist, you misunderstood. I said that day, you know what I know, and now why does the little Daoist need to mention this matter? Do you think that I, Li Shan, are the one who can't tell right from wrong?"

Li Shan listened to Zhong Wen bluntly speaking about the assassin, he was startled in his heart, it turned out that the Taoist leader had misunderstood him, so he hurriedly explained.

"Then dare to ask, what is the purpose of Commander Li's visit this time? If you need Xiaodao's help, please speak up."

Zhong Wen didn't quite understand what Li Shan was trying to find him this time. If he hadn't been more direct, Zhong Wen would always feel uncomfortable, feeling that his feet were on the ground and uneasy.

If it's really because of the female assassin, then I think I'm really going to die, so I can only make a plan and fight this Li Shan, so I can run away.

But this Li Shan just didn't speak out, and always made a detour, which made Zhong Wen not sure why, and always felt that Li Shan's coming to him was a bit unpredictable.

2 Forty Chapters

Zhong Wen has already called himself Xiao Dao, and this status has already declined. After all, Zhong Wen feels that he is inferior to others, and he feels very uncomfortable in his heart.

But this Li Shan, alas, is not direct.

"Xiao Daoist, actually, I want to ask, why is your skill so high at such a young age? Is it because of your master's teaching, or is there another society or teacher?"

Li Shan stopped turning the corner, and asked directly about Zhong Wen's skills.

"Commander Li, you are highly praised. My skill is not comparable to yours."

Zhong Wen didn't understand, so why did he suddenly ask about his skills?Could it be that Li Shan is trying to find out about himself, so that he can define his own personality, and when he wants to clean up himself one day, he can clean up at will?

"Xiao Daoist, you are very humble. Let me just say it this way. Your skill is the best among the younger generation I have ever seen. It can be said that it is almost the same as my master's generation. Just me Skills, I don't think I can beat you, so, Xiao Daoist, don't suspect that I came here to find you with any malicious intentions, this time I came here just to chat with you, there is no other meaning."

From the moment Li Shan entered the door, he knew that Zhong Wen was wary of him, otherwise, after talking for so long, the two of them would always feel like they were marching and fighting, testing each other.

"So that's it. Commander Li, what do you want to know? Just speak up and don't be polite."

The vigilance in Zhong Wen's heart still did not let go, but after hearing Li Shan's words, he just wanted to know what Li Shan wanted to do, or what he wanted to ask, and what he wanted to know.

After speaking, Zhong Wen started to take a bowl, put it in front of Li Shan, and poured a bowl of tea.

This is actually Zhong Wen's way of showing goodwill, telling you Li Shan that I, Zhong Wen, can treat you like a guest, so you, Li Shan, don't treat me as a villain.

In fact, this can only be blamed on Zhong Wen being too nervous. He always feels that Li Shan, the commander of the imperial guards, is suppressing him, making him always remember the assassin.

"Xiao Daoist, I heard what the Holy Majesty said. Although I have never seen the matter of your master Li Daoling, I have only heard about it. And you have only been studying with your master for a few years, and your skills are so high. What I don't understand is that when I was a child, I studied art with my master for more than ten years before I achieved a little achievement. Later, I followed the holy master to fight everywhere, and my skills gradually improved a little bit, and I finally reached the level I am today. look."

When he said this, Li Shan paused again, as if he was choosing something.

"So, I would like to ask the little Taoist master, is the swordsmanship you have learned inherited from your master or someone else?"

In the end, Li Shan still asked the question in his heart.

"It turns out that Commander Li wants to know about my skills and swordsmanship? I really can't tell you anything about this. After all, Commander Li, your skill is so high, you must also know that this talent and understanding are two different things. Only then can the level of martial arts be achieved."

After hearing what Li Shan said, Zhong Wen suddenly realized that Li Shan came here today to ask about martial arts.

"Innate savvy, I do know, but this talent and savvy are elusive and hard to find, and there is no trace to be found. Could it be that your talent and savvy are extremely high? Is there such an achievement?"

After Li Shan listened to Zhong Wen's words, he knew it in his heart, but this talented person with high comprehension is not so easy to see.

"I am gifted with savvy, and I feel that it is still possible. For example, I have had epiphany or something once or twice."

At this time, Zhong Wendao also let go of his vigilance, and began to chat with Li Shanchang. Even the epiphany was mentioned, but he didn't say it all.

"You have epiphanies once or twice? No wonder, no wonder, this epiphany is so difficult. When I was young, I had it once. It's just a pity that I haven't felt that way after all these years."

After hearing Zhong Wen's epiphany, Li Shan understood why Zhong Wen's skill is so high. Talented comprehension can indeed achieve a person's martial arts. Ten years or even decades will be higher. I don’t know how much it has gone.

"Commander Li also had an epiphany, may I ask how it feels..."

The two started chatting happily, but Jin Shui and Xu Fu didn't dare to go to the lobby to eavesdrop.

The two were chatting in the backyard at this time.

"Jin Shui, is Commander Li very familiar with the Taoist priest? Do you think I can ask the Taoist priest to tell Commander Li to let me go to the gate of Chang'an City and put up the name of my Huilai guest house? In this way, people will come to live in my guest house."

Xu Fu was still thinking about the business of his guest house, and wanted to make it easier for him to go through the command of Li Shan.

"Xu Koumen, you'd better not think about it. If you can clean up the back kitchen, I guarantee that the business of your inn will be much better."

Jin Shui imitated Zhong Wen, calling Xu Fu to knock on the door, and still imitating Zhong Wen, talking about his back kitchen.

"You, you, why is it not good to learn from the Taoist priest? You have to learn how he speaks. It sounds a little harsh to me."

"Don't listen, how is the food cooked by the Taoist priest? Is it delicious? If you really want to make the business of your inn bigger and stronger, you should listen to the advice of the Taoist priest. For example, ask the Taoist priest , let him teach you the cooking skills, I promise, the business of your inn will definitely be booming."

"Hey, you really reminded me. What if I change this inn into a restaurant? I can't learn cooking skills, so I can ask the Taoist priest to take the lead. When the time comes, I will give the Taoist priest a salary. The guest The source must be good."

"Hey, no wonder the Taoist said that apart from knocking on the door, you are also mentally ill. I am too lazy to tell you."

Jin Shui originally intended to remind Xu Fu, but in the end, it became the words to defeat him.

Xu Fu is really a slam dunk, but this slam door is nothing to him as a businessman, but Jin Shui has already talked about this, you still have to think about it before you start thinking about it. The good things in the world are coming.

Asking a Taoist priest to hold the spoon for you and let you open a restaurant is not a mental illness, what is it?If Zhong Wen really heard the conversation between the two, Zhong Wen would have to beat Xu Fu up.

What kind of brain can come up with such a broken idea, did the Taoist make it for your family?

"Come on, Jin Shui, then tell me, is what I just said okay? Put up a banner that I come to the guest house, and I can attract some guests, right? Every day, you and the Taoist priest are here with me. In the guest house, it seems a little deserted."
