Great Sui Guoshi

"If you kill it, you will kill it. I know that official is virtuous." Yang Jian waved his hand, and the hem of his robe swayed, and suddenly slowed down, stopped, and looked back at the clan brother who followed him.

"Where is Lu Liangsheng now?"

"This... I don't know either, and presumably the second prince doesn't know either."

Above the two people who were asking and answering, the sky was blue and white clouds were wandering. Soon, the news that the danger of the northern route had been resolved spread to the imperial city. People rushed to tell each other, and there was a commotion, and the teahouses and restaurants were suddenly overcrowded. , especially this battle is more or less related to a person's name. Many people speculated about what happened to make the [-] Turkic people fall apart.

"Dude, mix tea!!"

The tea shop was full of people, and the waiters serving tea and pouring water were running all over the room, their faces were sweaty from exhaustion, and a tea customer picked up a full cup of tea, blew on the hot air, and looked away at his companions.

"The Turks are also unlucky. They lost 4 horses in just a few days. But, do you know who that Lu Liangsheng is?"

Looking around, most of the tea drinkers also aroused gossip thoughts.

"I've never heard of it. There is such a character in Da Sui?"

"Army general, I have also heard my master talk about it, but I have never heard of the name Lu Liangsheng."

"Listen to the name, isn't it a scholar?"

The chattering voices around stopped. Hearing this name, he was indeed a little bookish. Could it be that the one who solved the siege of the north was a scholar?

The atmosphere of lively discussion can be seen everywhere in the city, but for those who know the real background of the scholar, it is an indescribable shock.

Yang Su, the Duke of Yue, left the imperial city slowly in a carriage. With a corner of the curtain raised, he could have a panoramic view of the bustling long street with people coming and going. However, when he was alone at the moment, he was both shocked and surprised by the ability of fellow daoist Lu.

He is aware of the opponent's realm, the Nascent Soul is out of the body, and the mana is soaring, it will not wipe out [-] soldiers and horses. Even if it can be done, the mana is almost completely consumed. Those who fall into the battle are also close to death.

"With his temperament, it's impossible to do that desperate thing. How did he do it? It's puzzling."

Putting down the curtain, following the slight shaking of the carriage, returning to the mansion, Yang Su waved back to the left and right, and even his wife and children were gone, went straight to the study, opened the door of the dark room, and walked down the long stone steps, the space became wider , there are lamp sockets protruding from the four walls, and the fire is on.

There are two rows of stone pillars in the middle, following Yang Su's passing, in the dim light, there are figures, motionless, with iron masks on their faces, they are exactly the puppets that Lu Liangsheng mentioned in the past.

Walking through the dense crowd of puppets, right in front, shrouded in bright golden light, on a table covered with yellow silk, the incense burner is filled with smoke, and at a slightly higher position behind, there is a pitch-black sword seat, and a big sword thicker than a human arm is placed .

ta ta ta ......

The footsteps stopped before the altar.

Yang Su stroked the thick sword with his fingertips. On the top was the sun, moon and stars. On the other side, there were mountains, rivers and rivers. The golden light was blooming from the sword.

"It's time to find someone who can hold the sword. The divine power of the Kunlun mirror is combined with it. There is no resistance in the world."

However, he also had other doubts. Why did the scholar who made such great achievements not return to Chang'an? Where did he go?

......

The morning light was peaceful and warm, and at this time, Lu Liangsheng was walking on the foot of the east outer mountain of Chang'an, holding the old donkey with one hand and holding the other hand behind his back. Looking up at the majestic foothills, his mood was much better than that in the north.

Wearing a white scholar's robe, with a Xuanyuan sword sheath hanging from his waist, he looks like a scholar traveling on a tour. The pig following behind has changed into a ferocious and terrifying wild boar head. Pedestrians have to dodge again and again, and look back from time to time when they are far away.

"This man is fat and big, and his face is really scary."

"Oh, that black hair is scary, it's so thick, which woman can bear it."

"Don't say it, be careful people hear it, but it looks like the scholar's servant."

"No wonder..."

"No wonder what?"

"A scholar with a bookshelf on his back and a pot on his back must travel a lot. If he dares to go like this, how can he not have powerful people around him?"

"Forget it, rare is more strange, let's go!"

The wind blows through the mountains, and the cicadas sing among the swaying branches one after another. The pig walking behind lowers its head and bites off the big round cake hanging around its neck. Open your mouth.

"My old pig will accompany you for a walk this time, remember to draw another portrait of Yue'er for me."

"What kind of painting?"

In front, Lu Liangsheng turned his head back with a smile, and glanced at the slightly open door of the bookshelf. Daoist Toad was holding the cigarette stick, hanging outside with his legs hanging, leaning against the door frame, pecking his head and dozing off little by little.

Zhu Ganglian raised his face and thought for a while, reached out his hand and took it out from his clothes, flipped through the dull book that the Taoist had given him, saw no one around, and whispered:

"The one with no clothes on..."

Lu Liangsheng: "..."

He quickly waved his hands, turned around without saying a word, and led the old donkey to continue walking. Zhu Ganglian chased after him with the book, clapped his chest, and clapped his hands to say good things.

"Mr. Lu, just draw a picture, and you can wear one. When we arrive at Lishan Mountain, my old pig and my old mother still have some friendship. Maybe a nod will bring your apprentice back to life!"

Lu Liangsheng ignored him.

There is a tea shop at the mountain pass in front of the mountain. After a long journey, there is not a drop of water. I feel a little thirsty when I see the flags floating.

"Fengzi Tea? The name of this tea shop is strange."

Ignoring the persuading Zhu Gangyan who followed behind, Lu Liangsheng handed the old donkey to the buddy department to remove the stake, woke up the sleeping master, and sat down at a table, followed by the fat and strong pig demon. They could reach the hut, and the business travelers resting around were shocked, drinking tea with trepidation.

The clerk tied up the old donkey and came in, raised his face and glanced at the fat black man next to him, swallowed his saliva, and moved to Lu Liangsheng's side.

"Two...two bowls, what would you like to drink? Our fengzi tea is the best here. Keep it safe and drink it. When you go up the mountain, your legs and feet are sharp and your body is full of energy."

Lu Liangsheng nodded. He was a little curious about this fengzi tea, and it was good to taste it. Not long after, the waiter brought two bowls of yellow-orange herbal tea and asked casually.

"Excuse me, brother, the mountain here is Mount Li, right?"

The scholar was handsome and kind-hearted, and he spoke nicely. The guy was not as scared as before. He brought herbal tea to the two of them and wiped the table with a rag.

"Listening to the accent of the guest officer, you are not from Chang'an, come to Lishan to visit the scenic spots?"

"Well, brother, is there a good place to go?"

Lu Liangsheng cupped his hands with a smile, took the herbal tea and put it in front of the master at the corner of the table. The waiter glanced at the toad in the short jacket, quickly looked away, and replied:

"Yes, there are. Here in Chang'an, Lishan Mountain is very beautiful. When you get up early, you can still see the magnificent scenery of the sea of ​​clouds. But if you come here in June, the guest officer can still catch up with the Zihui. He is as handsome as the guest officer. Maybe I can get married with another lady."

"Dude, is there any tea at home?"

A clear and melodious female voice came into the tea shop, and the man who was talking to Lu Liangsheng apologized, and rushed to greet him. The two seemed to know each other well, and diligently made a can of herbal tea for the woman in yellow and white dress, sealed it and wrapped it up.

Lu Liangsheng raised his head, and vaguely felt that the woman had a different aura from ordinary people, gentle and gentle, not like a demon.

"Girl, you have it."

The man sent the woman to the door, waved his hand courteously, and shouted again: "Go slowly, come back next time!" Only then did he reluctantly return to the tea shed.

"Brother, who was that woman just now?"

Lu Liangsheng asked curiously, the buddy who had just entered the tea shop heard something different in his ears, and the scholar looked a little wary.

3 Chapter Forty

The clerk at the tea shop looked at Lu Liangsheng, put the teapot aside, didn't answer, and settled the bills for the two tables of guests. When he came back, Lu Liangsheng over there saw him, and he probably understood that this clerk was deeply in love with the girl just now, and he A few words aroused vigilance.

"Brother, is there a misunderstanding?"

Lu Liangsheng didn't like to speak in secret, since there was a misunderstanding, it's better to talk it out face to face. The girl who just came in is not only young and beautiful, but also has traces of Taoism cultivation on her body, so she is unavoidably curious.

Of course, it was impossible to tell the guy that he had spells, unlike ordinary people who just made up excuses to explain it to make the guy who was cleaning the table feel better.

"The young master is open-minded, and the young one does have some admiration, but the girl doesn't say anything unnecessary every time she comes, she just leaves after buying tea, and she doesn't know her name, and the young one doesn't know much about the rest."

When the conversation started, the guy let go of his grievances and started talking again, attracting the beautiful scenery of Lishan Mountain from the girl, and other customers interrupted the conversation along the way, which caused a lot of excitement.

"Brother, don't think about that girl. I listened to my elder brother's persuasion. This woman, I still have to find someone who suits me. Are you right?"

"Don't talk about brother and girl. When I came here, I heard that there is a beautiful female fairy living in this Lishan Mountain?"

"Yes, but yes, that's the old mother of Lishan, what kind of fairy, be careful not to be heard that you are so talkative, and fall into the mud on the way."

Lu Liangsheng took a sip of his tea and listened to the bragging of a group of elders in the tea shed. They were all merchants traveling around, or bold and rough knight-errants. Their words were a little outspoken. After all, they had never seen any cultivators or gods. middle man.

Over there, the buddy poured tea for the scholar and said with a smile:

"Young master, don't listen to them. There are no gods in the mountains. The little one has been at the foot of the mountain for several years, and I have never seen it."

There are often legends of holy spirits in the mountains, but unfortunately he has never seen them.

"Ha ha....."

Lu Liangsheng chuckled and went over to make tea money, and took the reins from the man who sent him out, "Brother, don't be sorry, maybe you won't know after seeing Xianyuan."

Seeing the guy who led the donkey and took the black servant away, scratched his cheek, his eyes were full of doubts.

"What do you mean, it's inexplicable."

know know know...

know.....

The sound of cicadas in the verdant forest is annoying, and the stroking leaves float to the winding stone steps in the forest. Among the dense branches and leaves swaying on both sides, the old donkey is unrestrained, swinging his tail leisurely, walking up behind his master, and raising his forelegs , with a long beak to hook the very low leaves that hang down, so that Taoist Toad held its long ears and hit its forehead with webs.

"Stand still, look like you're walking or not, you still want to be human!!"

Looking at the apprentice in front again, he called out, "Liangsheng, do you know how to find old mother Lishan?"

"Hmph, of course I followed that female Bodhisattva just now!"

This place is already deep in the mountains, with few people in sight. Zhu Gang just returned to his original appearance, flipped through the old books, sucked in his mouth water, and took out the scroll of pictures on his waist and laughed.

Taoist Toad gave him a blank look, and after standing still, the apprentice in front turned around and said with a smile: "The old pig is right, the girl I met in the tea shop has mana, and she often goes to buy tea. I live in the mountains, so I should be able to ask a question or two."

The fingers in his sleeves kept pinching Fa Jue, and along the magic power invisible to ordinary people, he walked to the deserted grassy dirt road and deviated from the stone steps taken by tourists. After a while, Lu Liangsheng slowed down, followed by the panting Zhu Gang Hyena was leaning on a tree, her bulging scalp undulating violently.

"But I'm exhausted, and I don't want to rest."

As soon as the words were finished, Taoist Toad threw a bean and hit the pig's nose. Then, he pointed to the front, and the latter looked along. A woman in a long yellow dress was walking on the mountain road with a can of herbal tea, her skirt slightly raised Down, the lotus steps are long, and the embroidered shoes are not even contaminated by a little dust.

Looking at the slender back, Zhu Ganglian hastily closed his slightly opened long mouth, stretched out his hand to pat his nose and mouth, and pressed it back to his face. The ears like cattail leaf fans on both sides shrank back, his belly retracted, revealing his eight-pack abs. The two heavy lumps on the chest stretched into a square shape and became firm, and even the rough black hair was drilled back into the pores.

Immediately, he looked majestic, a strong man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Before Lu Liangsheng stepped forward, his figure was strong and vigorous, as if a gust of wind passed over the scholar, he shouted: "Female Bodhisattva, female Bodhisattva, please stay still!"

The woman in front of her stopped, with Ruyi's bun on her hair, and the jasper beads slowly turned around and swayed slightly. Her beautiful face showed doubts. When she saw the dark and tall man in front of her, she subconsciously took half a step back.

"This strong man, why stop me?"

suck~

Zhu Ganglu saw the appearance clearly, took a sip of saliva, laughed, and then cupped his hands and bowed: "Bodhisattva girl, I, Lao Zhu, are very polite!"

The woman quickly hid aside, obviously startled.

"Hey, what do you do, you ask someone as soon as you come."

"Girl, don't panic." Lu Liangsheng came over and tapped on the pig demon's back lightly, telling him to restrain himself and lower his voice.

"Don't make trouble, just go back and paint for you."

Immediately, he stepped forward and slightly cupped his hands, and said to the woman: "He is my companion, and there is no one else in the mountain, so I have to ask the girl to ask the way."

The woman was slim and tall, carrying a tea pot and looked up and down at the scholar in front of her. She was wearing a white robe with wide sleeves, a blue belt around her waist, and a sheath ornament the size of a thumb was hanging down. Her pretty eyes took another look at the scabbard.

"Where is this young man going?"

"Looking for immortals in the mountains, seeking the fairyland of Lishan Mountain." Lu Liangsheng cupped his hands and bowed again, and got closer, and could feel the peace on the woman's body, not like that of Purdue Cihang back then, but extremely comfortable, like a spring breeze Brush body.

It's not the ghosts and monsters in the mountains, it should have something to do with Lishan's old mother, she didn't hide her words, and just said the reason.

"I hope that the girl can make it easier. She will learn from the younger generation and want to meet Lishan's old mother to save people."

The woman in yellow covered her mouth and laughed softly, turned around and walked forward with the tea pot in her hand, her skirt fluttering with brisk steps.

"As long as you can catch up with me, I will take you there."

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the walking woman disappeared among the swaying branches and grass in the blink of an eye. Lu Liangsheng took out a yellow talisman given to him by the Taoist, and it burned in the air with a bang, swaying a circle of mana.

"Tracking!"

At the same time that the word "Chi" on the talisman turned into a gossamer, Lu Liangsheng did not slow down, and flew towards the direction where the woman disappeared, and the surrounding flowers and trees were blown away. The toad on the donkey's head put down a covered taro leaf, poked its head out and shouted, "Come back, we're still here."

The pig demon who had only taken two steps ran back, took the rein, pulled the old donkey, and chased after him. There was no figure of the scholar in front of him, only the vegetation was still shaking.

Ahead, Lu Liangsheng chased along the foot of the mountain for several miles, and when he stepped on it, a tree nearby shook and fell onto a higher rock. There was only a steep cliff in front of him, and there was no way to go up.

..... The breath disappears here.

Looking back, the mountain was covered with verdant tree cages extending to the foot of the mountain, and clouds and mist filled the top of the mountain. In the rustling sound below, I heard the snoring of pigs and the neighing of donkeys, as well as the urgent urging of the master.
