Great Sui Guoshi

"What did the Duke of Yue say? Didn't you let His Majesty seal it down? How can a bowl of noodles be worthy of this kind of affection?"

"Yo, Mr. Lu Da can also tease people." Yang Su who was opposite raised his face and said this with a smile, but after all, the two of them were affectionate, so naturally they wouldn't take it seriously when they were joking.

Putting down his chopsticks, he stroked his beard and spoke his thoughts for a while.

"Fellow Daoist Lu is hard to please. This is the way to force you to come here. Besides, are you so wasteful in your studies? Entering the court to be an official, no, let's not talk about being an official, just say the position of a national teacher, and you can pray The sky and the ancestors can use their knowledge, and both can benefit the people of the world."

"I can't do it. All I have learned all my life is the art of war and swordsmanship, while others either concentrate on cultivating the Tao, or only manage people's livelihood. They have both. The world does not say that there is no such thing, but my brother and I know you Alone, not to mention that you are so familiar, and you don't have much selfishness, this is what my brother likes the most."

Lu Liangsheng listened to the words with a smile and did not refute. After all, he had already promised Yang Jian in the palace before, and he also knew his character. Some troubles.

The family belongings are all in Qixia Mountain, and parents and relatives are also there. The whole Lujia Village has personally made it gradually rich and peaceful. If they leave, they will probably be reluctant to part with it.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Liangsheng put down his chopsticks.

"How can I not know what the Duke of Yue said, and I am grateful to His Majesty for valuing it in my heart. It's just that my cultivation base is superficial. I'm afraid that I will be ridiculed by my colleagues if I become a national teacher. People who say that they are only in the Nascent Soul Realm dare to be a national teacher. At that time, His Majesty and Duke Yue will also lose face."

Taoist Toad by the bowl wanted to speak, opened his mouth, looked at his apprentice's expression, closed it again, and continued to suck his own noodles.

'My mother's... the delicacies of the palace. '

Over there, Yang Su didn't think that way, and shook his head: "What did Fellow Daoist Lu just say, look at me? How much cultivation?"

"That's different. The Duke of Yue is a younger brother of today's family, and he has contributed to conquering Northern Qi and Southern Chen. Who can criticize him? But Lu Liangsheng has no merit or virtue. It’s inappropriate to be in a high position.”

Lu Liangsheng had his own thoughts, tapped the table with his fingertips, and suddenly laughed: "Let's put down the position of the national teacher for now, I want to go around and sharpen it, just happened to get a strange thing by chance a few days ago. "

As he said that, he told Yang Su about the Fire Praying Sect. The latter had pursued this sect before, but unfortunately he had gained very little. Yang Sudu was extremely disgusted.

Seeing the scholar walking to the bookshelf to take the book, he quickly reached out and held down the other's hand that was about to turn the pages of the book.

"This thing is yours, why let others see it."

"Is Duke Yue someone else?"

Lu Liangsheng was magnanimous in his heart. He opened the book and let the picture of the Purple Mountain View on it fall into Yang Su's eyes. Lush, green ink is clear, lifelike.

The lights at the night stand were dimly lit, and the light and shadow of the lanterns shone on the scholar's face.

In the dark, Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly. He had never painted other scenes on it.

Chapter 283 Mingzun's Final Ending

"Lu Daoyou's painting skills are really good, and the surrounding forests and fields are also vividly painted. If you didn't see the green ink, you would think it was really growing in the painting."

After taking an oil lamp, Yang Su looked at it point by point, and couldn't help but praise it, which attracted the old man who cooked the noodles to poke his eyes, but it was a pity that he couldn't appreciate it after all.

On the opposite side, Lu Liangsheng took the oil lamp for Yang Su, put it on the corner of the table, and in a low voice denied the other scenery except the Purple Mountain View.

"I did not paint the surrounding mountains. At that time, I only included the painting of Purple Mountain in the book. I just opened it and saw that there are so many mountains formed. The Duke of Yue is well-informed. What can you see?"

Hearing this, Yang Su raised his eyes, with a look of surprise in his eyes, then frowned, and carefully examined the paper of the book and the name on the cover of the book.

""The Boundless Mountains and Seas"...has a poetic name."

I read it carefully for a while, but unfortunately I didn't see any clues from the material and the title of the book. However, I have practiced Taoism for many years, and I am in a high position, and I have more knowledge than Lu Liangsheng. Jane's people.

"Well, Su has a little speculation in her heart..."

He lifted his cuffs slightly, and cast a small spell of sound insulation with his fingertips, and Lu Liangsheng on the opposite side also cast the illusion of two people, a demon and a toad eating and laughing.

Feeling the mana flowing around, Yang Su opened his mouth.

"... Fellow Daoist didn't intend to get this thing. It should be a fixed number of days. According to what Fellow Daoist said before, it was blank, and there was no response after closing the Zishan Temple. At the beginning, the mountain and river roads were extended by themselves. In the next day, fellow Taoist Lu might as well go to He Lingzhou to have a look. According to the comparison of the mountains, is it the same as in the painting?

...If it is exactly the same, when it continues to extend to cover the whole book, something strange will appear. At that time, fellow Taoists will walk around those places and see what they can find out. "

Lu Liangsheng nodded thoughtfully.

"The Duke of Yue thinks, what might be in those places?"

"Extraordinary treasure..." Yang Su twisted the tip of his beard and pondered for a while, then added: "It may also be a ferocious beast, or a thousand-year-old monster."

Taoist Toad's eyelids trembled, and when he saw Yang Su's gaze sweeping over, he straightened up unconsciously. In an instant, his gaze swept past him, and fell to the other side to prop his chin, his eyes were fixed on the scholar's black skirt woman.

"Of course, Fellow Daoist Lu may not feel anything, but Su still wants to remind people who practice Taoism, don't waste energy. The Rakshasa ghost last time, this time it's..."

Yang Su raised his chin, and pointed to Xiyou with obvious meaning. The latter seemed to understand that someone was talking about him. Mu Qiyou turned his head, frowned slightly, and leaned forward a little bit, sticking out the tip of his tongue viciously, and parted. Several waved wildly in front of Yang Su.

"Fellow Daoist Lu..." Yang Su held back the words that hadn't been finished yet, hurriedly looked away, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised his cuff and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

That big monster with thousands of years of Taoism, his own knowledge is really not enough... Alas, forget it, since ancient times, the scholar has been romantic, let him go, as long as he can hold it down.

'Hmm..... It's the taste of Fellow Daoist Lu, it's getting weirder and weirder. '

After thinking about it for a while, Yang Su also said what he had guessed, which might have been caused by the royal seal, but he quickly ruled it out.

After that, the two talked about other things. While chatting and laughing, Lu Liangsheng put away "The Boundless Mountain and Sea" on the table, imagined two glasses of wine, and when passing them over, he asked about his two apprentices Yu Wentuo and Qu Yuanfeng.

"We parted from them a few days ago. Yu Wentuo missed his relatives in the family, so he came back to the Northland. I don't know if Duke Yue knows where the two of them live now?"

"It's in the city."

Yang Su drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, watched the empty glass slowly refill, and said with a smile: "Su has seen many ascetics, but only Fellow Daoist Lu has used illusion to the extreme."

After recollecting the smell of wine that stayed in his mouth, he continued: "Yu Wentuo, one of the two apprentices of fellow Taoist, Su discovered that he is a natural spiritual root..."

At this point, the voice gradually became weaker: "...It's still the reincarnation of the artifact, so I always have an idea."

Lu Liangsheng looked at him, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Yue, please tell me."

"Instead of simply cultivating the Tao, it is better to contribute to the country, and with his divine power to bless, after more than ten years, looking at the nine states of the world, no one is his opponent, no matter the practitioners, or demons and ghosts. The people will enjoy eternal peace."

The dim lights of the night stall were flickering, and a table of diners not far away left after eating and paying their bills. The ceramic bowls were bumping in the hands of the old man. Lu Liangsheng was silent for a moment, and replied with a smile.

"Although Yu Wentuo is my apprentice, he has always been very assertive. If he wants to, he doesn't need me to persuade him at all. Therefore, Duke Yue should go by himself."

In fact, it is not an excuse. From Yuwentuo to Qixia Mountain, Lu Liangsheng knew that he was very assertive. If he hadn't been taken care of by his master and Lu Pan when he first came, he might have slipped away long ago. .

As for whether to enter the court or not to be an official, Lu Liangsheng never liked to force other people's wishes.

Soon, after eating this supper, Yang Su wanted to pay the bill, but he had no money at all, so it was Lu Liangsheng who settled the bill, so he handed over the bill and said goodbye in embarrassment.

"Next time Fellow Daoist Lu returns to Chang'an, Su will prepare a banquet at home!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his cuffs and cupped his hands again, and walked back to the streets of the mansion.

As soon as the other party walked away, his figure disappeared into the mist of the long street, Taoist Hama gave a 'pooh' in the direction Yang Su left.

"Such a big official doesn't bring money with him when he goes out!"

Away from the eyes of ordinary people in Ye Tan, he stood up, clattered to the bookshelf with his bi-fins on his shoulders, and climbed back to the compartment by climbing the rope.

Lu Liangsheng smiled and said nothing. He closed the small door of the bookshelf, led the old donkey to find the address given by Yang Su, and went to the place where Yu Wentuo and Qu Yuanfeng lived.

.......

The huge city with thousands of lights, after the night darkened, many lights gradually went out. In a certain mansion in the city, Yu Wentuo, who was dressed in a robe with a golden flower bottom, came out of the room of his junior brother, walked through the eaves with one hand in his hand, and came to the water pavilion. In the gazebo by the pond.

With his hands on his knees, he sat quietly in a corner, looking at the gray moon, his brown and blue eyes were unblinking, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The sound of insects chirped in the grass beside the pond in the distance. Although I grew up in this mansion, I was used to living in Qixia Mountain with my master, juniors, and people in Lujia Village, so I missed it a little in my heart.

'I don't know what happened to master, master, senior brother, and third junior brother. '

"Why, are you thinking of becoming a teacher?"

The name that came to mind just now, words came suddenly, Yu Wentuo turned his head subconsciously, and a figure in blue and white robe slowly emerged from under the eaves in front of the corridor.

Lu Liangsheng entered the mansion alone, walked across the stone bridge and sat opposite Yu Wentuo, and stretched out his hand to save him from getting up to salute.

"Come here just to see you and Yuanfeng, and leave later, how about him?"

"Brother fell asleep."

Yu Wentuo hadn't seen his master for a long time, and his usual calm expression became a little excited. He sat down, poured the tea on the table, and held it with both hands in respect.

"Junior Brother, I have joined the army and practiced every day. I am quite tired, so I went to bed earlier."

Looking at a certain place in the courtyard, Lu Liangsheng seemed to feel that the sleeping figure in the room was snoring, and turned back with a smile on his face, looking at the second apprentice opposite.

"how about you?"

Yu Wentuo put down the tea, sat there straight and silent for a while.

"Disciple, you may also become an official in the court... Disciple's relatives have descended now, but after all, they will be sent to others. If you can enter the court as an official, it will be considered as a protection for them. You don't have to be like my parents who don't understand. "

Clenching the hands on his knees, he said in a low voice: "By the way, I want to find out the cause of my parents' death. Master, don't stop me." "Why do you stop me as a teacher?" Lu Liangsheng poured tea and drank it He said, "Finding the truth for your parents and avenging your hatred is what you should do, not to mention that as a teacher, you also promised the emperor to enter the Sui Dynasty."

On the side, Yu Wentuo was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face.

"In the future, when the disciple is in the court, I still hope that the master will support him."

The master and the apprentice sat in the gazebo and talked for a long time, including the past events in Qixia Mountain, and also talked about the recent events, especially the Qihuo Cult, the Holy Fire Mingzun was overshadowed by his Yuanshen's sword, and he died so aggrieved.

The light in the gazebo was warm and yellow, reflecting the figures of the two of them on the water surface of the pond outside the pavilion, gently rippling.

......

As the night darkened, the cold moonlight streaked across the night sky to the south of Chang'an, casting rustling noises in the dark forest, and the trees swayed from side to side, as if something huge was moving.

Between the blue and dark mountains, there is a certain roadside on the winding mountain road.

The soil under a tree moved gently, and the soil broke open, revealing a muddy bead rolling out.

"Hehe... How could this deity die so easily, the five damned scholars, when I respect the body, I will refine you into a elixir!!"

Susu~~~

The sending soul orb lit up, and the last ray of soul was still there. After more than a month of effort, he finally managed to crawl out of the ground bit by bit.

Susu~~

Suddenly, the forest behind shook, and Zhuli's soul turned to perceive, "Whether it's a beast in the mountain, first let the deity attach...attach..."

His words became stammered, and if he had eyes, they would have widened to the extreme.

The two big trees in front broke with a 'click' from left to right, dragging their lush branches toppled down, and a huge black shadow reflected in the cold moonlight walked out slowly.

The first thing to enter the range of the moonlight on the ground is the falling hoof, which is as black as an iron palm, and every time it hits, there is a dull sound.

In an instant, the moonlight sprinkled on the shadow that walked out. Its hair was thick and sparse, its body was fat and rough, its mane was like a steel needle, its fangs grew out of its mouth and bent upwards, and its eyes were like lightning, staring straight at the pearl on the ground. .

"Pig...no...no no, don't come over—."

Shenghuo Mingzun turned the last word 'yao' and turned into a mournful cry, but unfortunately he couldn't get the beads out, so he was sucked up by the wide open mouth, fell into the long mouth, clucked a few times, and was chewed The pulpy, nothing left.

The black figure closed his eyes, feeling the comfort of absorbing a ray of human soul, flicked a row of steel bristles, smacked his long mouth, and turned to the northwest direction.

"I'm looking for the egg and the second mother to have sex..."

Stepping on four hooves leisurely, disappeared under the moonlight.

Chapter 284 Be Prepared

The moonlight was as deep as water, and dogs barked a few times in the streets. Lu Liangsheng walked out of Yuwentuo's mansion and whistled into the alley. The old donkey trotted over carrying the bookshelves, and followed his master slowly through the thin water fog.

The two apprentices had their own opinions, and Lu Liangsheng didn't have much to say about the path he wanted to take. How far he could go in the future and how to go, ultimately depended on them.

One person and one donkey gradually walked into the mist.

In the middle of the night in the city, the only place that has not yet closed is the inn. The shop guy dozed off on the square table with his arms pillowed on his head. It was a scholar and an old donkey, so they invited him in.

"Guest officer, there is another room upstairs, the small one will take you to it... Huwa..."

While talking, he yawned, carried the lantern and walked up the stairs, Lu Liangsheng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you." He followed the clerk up to the second floor, and the entire inn was quiet at this time, not very soundproof. In the room, snoring sounds came out one after another from time to time, and occasionally, the woman's muffled hum could be vaguely heard...

The guy who was walking in front took it for granted, rubbed his eye sockets, and turned his face sideways.

"If the guest officer needs it, the younger one can help you find one or two..."

"It's not necessary."

After opening the door, Lu Liangsheng thanked the clerk, and gave him a few tips, "Just take care of the donkey for me when the time comes."

Outside the door, the shop guy weighed a few copper coins in his hands, and promised to take care of the donkey in the backyard with a smile. When he arrived at the backyard, he tied up the old donkey, and diligently moved the bookshelf up, and then went back to sleep.

As soon as the people left, Lu Liangsheng closed the door, touched the wick with his fingertips, and the bright yellow light burst from the oil lamp, illuminating the whole room.
