Great Sui Guoshi

The reason is simple, but it also explains the reason the most. Qingfeng is not stupid. After thinking for a while with his head tilted, he probably figured out the joints, and nodded with his small mouth.

"Well, Qingfeng has recorded it, thank you for your teaching, Master."

"Don't play tricks like this in the future, follow me back and tell me how I got to Chang'an."

After saying something, Lu Liangsheng went around to the intersection with a breeze, and a team of government servants hurried over with knives and forks. He heard that a big insect appeared on the street and ate people. The fleeing people saw that the government had sent someone Come, feeling a little more at ease, took the hatchet and wooden stick at home and followed behind, carefully looking around.

"Masters, it's just ahead, and the roar of the tiger comes from that alley."

"Yes, that's right there. Someone saw a colorful tiger running out with their own eyes before. It's really scary."

"...You guys have to be careful, the big bug eats people, maybe it will become a spirit."

"Shut up all of you, don't talk so mysterious, what if you scare the poor man?!"

Immediately everyone shut their mouths, and the arresters and yamen servants in front of them also had a bad expression on their faces, but after looking around, there was no sign of the beast at all. A group of people inquired, but there was no news of the beast.

"It's strange, I saw it clearly, the street was very chaotic at that time, how come it changed back to normal."

Amidst the doubts of the policemen who were about to fight the tiger, Lu Liangsheng sat back in the shade of a tree in the southeast mountain view of Chang'an, looking at the little people opposite him and looking around.

"Qingfeng, what happened to Five Colors Village?"

Chapter 577 The Unbelievable Toad

In Wanshou Temple, the shade of the tree shone by the rays of the sun swayed slightly. The little man rested on his toes and stared straight at the eight muscular men over there. Clear lines.

Qingfeng's small mouth could be seen slightly opened, but it was difficult to close.

"Breeze?"

Hearing Lu Liangsheng's voice came again, he hastily turned his face and stood up straight: "Yes, Master..." Thinking of what Master asked just now, a bitter look appeared on his small face.

"Master, in fact, Qingfeng was still in Wusezhuang. According to Master's instructions, he repaired the attic and formations, but the day before yesterday in the mountains in the northwest, suddenly there were several howling wolves, and all the monsters in the northwest came out. I have seen it before. I haven’t seen it before, running around all over the mountain, Wusezhuang, and then I was spotted by a few big monsters.”

Speaking of this, Qingfeng patted his chest, and raised his chin quite proudly: "Fortunately, I am clever, and heroes don't suffer from immediate losses. Come and report to the master first, and then call back when the time comes, and just drive them away."

Snapped.

A book was knocked on the little man's head, Lu Liangsheng took back the book with a smile on his face: "If you run away, you will run away, and you said that you are so sober and refined, if you give half of your temperament to Mingyue, he won't be like that." Rigid."

On the opposite side, Qingfeng blinked his eyes while covering his forehead, and turned the conversation away when he saw the opportunity.

"Master, who is Mingyue?"

"I am another little boy, you will have a chance to meet in the future, don't change the subject." Lu Liangsheng didn't know what he meant, and he was about to fight, but the little man quickly jumped away with his head in his arms, seeing that the book hadn't been knocked down, Taking a sneak peek, Master sat there with a smile, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

'Except for being incomparable in cultivation, this master is much gentler than the original master. '

The thought only turned around briefly, and then he thought about the scene that happened in Wujiang Mountain, raised his chin and looked at the red sky clouds, and said "uh" for a while.

"...The three monsters seem to be a tiger spirit, a deer, and a sheep."

"I'm not talking about them, but the monsters popping up all of a sudden in the northwest mountains."

What Lu Liangsheng was thinking about was that there were several cities in the northwest mountains, all of which were his own people. If all kinds of monsters gathered, even if they were not aimed at people, the demonic aura would have an impact on the nearby creatures.

Over there, Qingfeng shook his head.

"I don't know. They all ran out overnight. If there were not ten thousand, there were thousands. The momentum was a little scary."

Hearing this, Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly, "Wolf sound?" He subconsciously turned his gaze to the attic, where the mountains and seas were placed among the bookshelves.

"It's that white wolf demon."

At this time, Taoist Toad's voice suddenly sounded, holding the small red rooster bowl, scooping up a spoonful of iced cheese with a spoon and putting it into his mouth, he walked over with his flippers.

"Gongsun Liao left two days ago, he was the one who howled the wolves, and only the Demon King of the Northwest can summon the group of demons in the Northwest... There are more than 600 demons counting the wise ones Only, what flies in the sky, what swims in the water, and what crawls in the grass, the master knows everything well.”

Lu Liangsheng hung down the scroll, bent slightly with his elbows on his knees, and looked at Taoist Toad who came over with the bowl: "Why is Master so clear?"

Feeling the sweet and sour taste in his mouth, Toad snorted twice, jumped onto his apprentice's hand, stood up and sat down on his shoulders, basking in the setting sun, and squinted his eyes comfortably.

"Liangsheng, you have to know that when you think about it as a teacher back then, there was an existence that was as close as the demon king. In a corner of the northwest, there is a delicious monster on which mountain... Pooh, what kind of monster is there, how can a teacher not know? It's just that I'm getting more and more lazy now, and I don't want to ask questions, otherwise, if Zixing's name is stomped, all the monsters in the northwest will tremble."

Qingfeng looked at Lu Liangsheng on the opposite side in a low voice: "Master, I haven't heard of it in the northwest."

"Humph!"

Taoist Toad opened his eyes, sat up straight, hugged the bowl of iced cheese, took a big bite, and didn't care about the little brat, hung his two short legs, chewed leisurely, and said: "You know What the hell." I ignored him.

I probably figured out why Qingfeng suddenly appeared here. Lu Liangsheng didn't need to worry about Wusezhuang being occupied by three monsters. There was a magic circle left by Lu Yuan there to guard him, so he couldn't enter the attic. As for that Gongsun Liao Suddenly returning to the northwest, and changing his usual style of pleasure, it is suspicious.

His eyes turned to Toad on his shoulder: "Master, he is your friend, do you know what to do to summon a group of monsters?"

"I don't know, I have never eaten him as a teacher."

The spoon he scooped up was loosened suddenly, and Taoist Toad slapped the apprentice's ear suddenly, "When that stupid wolf left, he persuaded the teacher and said a lot of long-winded words. At that time, the teacher had other important things to do Do it, didn't listen."

This made Qingfeng laugh out loud.

"To say that is to say nothing, haha..."

Then he was glared at by Lu Liangsheng, shut his mouth quickly and did not dare to make a sound, the scholar held the scroll and patted his palm lightly, watching the last ray of sunlight from the top of the city, the shaking scroll slammed heavily In the palm of your hand, stand up.

"Tomorrow morning, we will rush to the northwest."

Hong Lian had never been to the northwest land of the Great Sui Dynasty, and Lu Pan and the eight had also seen the desolation of the northwest. They happily packed up and saluted overnight, and even ate dinner much faster than usual. In front of the big round table, the breeze served The bowl and the chopsticks were not yet held firmly, eight pairs of chopsticks fell down with afterimages, and in an instant, only the empty plates were left shaking on the table.

"Do you need to go so fast...I'm a kid, save some for me!"

The eight people ignored him, and ran upstairs quickly after eating, the little man had to take the leftover soup left on the plate and pour it into the meal, and quickly planed, raising his head from time to time to listen to the footsteps above. Planks come and go.

In the room on the third floor, the lights are bright, Taoist Ha is leaning against the lamp post, crossing his legs, the old god is watching the recipe unfolded in his hand, and Hong Lian and Qi You are busy cleaning up, turning their heads to look at the scholar who is writing at the desk .

"Are you really going to the northwest? That old wolf can't make any waves. He really did something bad, so the teacher took care of him personally."

"Prevent problems before they happen."

Lu Liangsheng replied softly, spread out the paper, took the wolf brush and dipped it in ink, and wrote a letter to the emperor to go to the northwest by himself.

The content is roughly: Chen Ye feels that the evil spirit in the northwest is suffocating, there must be something unknown, there are still people in the Sui Dynasty who live and work in peace and contentment, so they can rest assured after taking care of them. If your majesty calls for something urgent, you can put the letter in front of the northwest window and burn it.

After writing a few dozen words, he put down the brush, folded the letter into a paper crane, blew on it, and put it on the window sill. The next moment, the paper crane seemed to come alive, flapping its paper wings, Dragging a ray of Dharma light, it flew out of the window lattice, and did not go into the night.

"Master, your mana has recovered?" Lu Liangsheng stretched out a copper basin to wash the ink on the tip of the pen, shook the bag to remove the brocade cloth, put it in the sleeve, and then looked at the toad looking at the recipe under the lamp post.

The latter only let out an understatement of 'um', thinking how surprised the apprentice would be, couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth.

For a moment, there was no question at all. Daoist Ha sat up straight, and in front of his vision, Lu Liangsheng was packing up the books and putting them on the bookshelf, and he didn't seem to hear his "hmm" at all.

"You have recovered the demon core as a teacher, you really don't believe it?"

Lu Liangsheng turned his face, just smiled, then was dragged away by Hong Lian, went outside, the door slammed shut, and Toad was so angry that his two short legs tensed up, and stomped hard on the spot.

"What the old man said is true!!!"

Xi You on the side turned her face and stuck out the tip of her tongue at him, obviously not interested.

The night gradually passed, and in the far east, the clouds glowed with golden light, which pierced through the gaps in the clouds and sprinkled down. On the official road in the western outskirts of the city pushing the black edge, a group of people chatted and laughed lively with an old donkey.

The copper bell rang softly, far away from the morning sun.

Chapter 578 The Monkey King

In midsummer, in the hot sun, the smoke and dust rolled up on the shafts of the passing cars, and was swept away by a bald tail in the air. The jingling and shaking copper bells sounded from far to near, and there were hay clippings hanging from the mouth of the old donkey. , yawned sleepily, swallowed slowly, and walked leisurely by the side of the road with the scholar on his back with his donkey eyes drooping.

The eight big men followed behind with their chests and backs bare, their swords on their backs, and they looked around ferociously. On the way between Hezhou and Chang'an, the traders were too frightened to look any further, for fear they would be robbers.

After passing by a group of traders, the smoke-filled road was empty, except for the scholars and a group of scholars. In the bookshelf behind the old donkey, Taoist Toad pushed open the small door, stretched his muscles and bones, and looked at the slanting sky. With two short legs hanging, he knocked on the door frame with a cigarette stick.

"Little female ghost, the journey was so boring, I'll give this old man a little song I've never heard before."

A writing brush made of entangled roots lying on the upper compartment of the shelf moved, and a quiet sound came out.

"I want some too!"

The Moon Misty Sword hanging outside pushed away a small portion of the hilt, "The old toad can also bend, it can only croak and croak~~~"

"To shut up!"

Qiyou and Taoist Toad shouted in unison, and the Moon Misty Sword retracted into its sheath with a swish. On the other side of the shelf, several scrolls were placed vertically, and Yin Ling laughed lightly.

"Master Toad wants to hear it, so Hong Lian can sing a song or two... The fragrant grass is desolate to the distant mountains, the wanderer outside the mountains..."

"You little female ghost... you know that Northwest is the old man's hometown, and you still sing this song, trying to find the old man unhappy, quack—"

Lu Liangsheng, who was walking in front, looked back at the busy bookshelf, smiled, and took out the map engraved paper in his sleeve. His eyes stayed on a certain spot for a moment, and he looked up in the direction of the southwest of Hezhou. It was much closer from here. .

'Since you're passing by here, you might as well go and see him. '

After touching the monkey hair in the sleeve pocket, he jumped off the donkey's back and led the old donkey to the front intersection. Taking advantage of the early morning, he walked up the loose forest on the ridge. The eight people behind Lu Pan found that they had deviated from the route. Qingfeng, who was sitting on the shoulder of one of the big men, put his hand to his mouth and whispered to them, "This is Liangjie Mountain, and there is a big monkey under the mountain."

"I'm going to put an old friend in front."

As soon as the little man's words fell, Lu Liangsheng's voice sounded, and the eight of them suddenly felt a little relieved. In the bookshelf, Taoist Toad stretched out half of his body and looked out, discerning the direction, and probably knew where to go , Lie back down again, leaning against the door frame with her calf swaying, humming along with Hong Lian's little song.

The mountains in the northwest are barren, surrounded by sparse green trees, birds jumping on the branches, looking at a group of people passing by below, singing softly, turning over two mountains, pushing aside the dangling branches, in the front view, vaguely see what looks like a human palm The unfolding mountains.

When the mountain wind blew, Lu Liangsheng let go of the dangling branches, led the people to the foot of the mountain, let go of the reins and told Lu Pan and Qingfeng to wait here.

On the shadow of Xiaguang flashing through the gaps in the trees, Lu Liangsheng turned into an old man in a soap-colored Taoist robe, stroking his long gray beard, and walked up to the Wuzhi Mountain.

Listening to the birds chirping around, when I came to the mountainside above, several fruit trees had grown several times, and the tree cages were full of blooming flowers, attracting bees and butterflies to fly up and down.

Under the steep cliff, among a few tufts of weeds, there is a hairy head covered with moss, protruding out of the mountain motionless, as if dozing off.

Hehehe.....

Seeing that he was safe, Lu Liangsheng chuckled softly. Hearing the movement, the monkey head opened his eyes and looked towards this side like lightning. He immediately recognized the old man who was coming, showing a pair of fangs turned outwards, laughing. speak out.

"It's been a few more autumns and winters before I thought of visiting my grandson?"

"There are a lot of trifles in the world of mortals, so I'm here to see you." Lu Liangsheng waved his sleeves to brush away a rock next to him, blowing away the dust and sat on it, took out a fruit from his sleeve pocket and wiped it, then laughed and handed it over Go to monkey head mouth.

"Great Sage, try it, I bought it in Chang'an when I came here."

The fluffy head looked at the red fruit, was silent for a while, opened its fangs, and bit off a piece of it hard, the sweet juice flowed, the monkey closed its eyes comfortably and chewed the fruit slowly, feeling the squeezed juice covering every part of its tongue. place.

"Delicious! Delicious! Another bite!"

Lu Liangsheng sat next to him holding the fruit and held it up to his mouth. The monkey still bit down on it, devoured it all, took out a comb from his sleeve, and combed the messy monkey head. size.

"In the past two years, I have been to Lishan several times, and my mother is fine."

"She will be fine, of course, who dares to touch the sky and the earth."

The monkey spat out the fruit core and sank directly into the soil in front of it. It turned its face slightly, and its apricot-yellow eyes glanced at the seasoned scholar beside him.

"My old grandson and you still hit it off, how about asking for a brother? I will see my righteous sister in the future, so I don't need to be so lowly."

"do not move!"

Lu Liangsheng moved the monkey's head back and forth, combed the dry and knotted hair with a wooden comb, and said softly: "Property cannot be surpassed, if I worship you as a brother, how can I see Mr. Zi Yuan? "

"It's troublesome, it's the rules again." Monkey head shook his head irritably, gritted his teeth and said: "There are rules in the sky, and there are rules in the bottom, my old grandson can't wait to smash all these things with a stick! "

hiss~~

With a hiss, the monkey head glared at Lu Liangsheng fiercely, and pushed back the wooden comb on his head: "Let's go, follow the rules and don't come here."

Lu Liangsheng fell silent, and when he saw a disagreement with him, he got angry, put away the wooden comb, got up, took two steps, and arched his hands towards the monkey:

"Then let's take a step forward."

"return!"

Seeing that he really left, the monkey head under the steep wall became anxious and shouted loudly: "It's not dark yet, let's talk a little longer, don't go, don't go, I was reckless just now, I will apologize to you."

Lu Liangsheng came back again and sat beside him, but he didn't comb his hair either. They just looked at the sunset setting off the mountain, and occasionally birds flew past from the field of vision and fell to the foot of the mountain in the distance.

The sun shines on the cliff, and the shadows of a man and a monkey are gradually elongated in this residual red, chatting one after another.

"Last time, you told me that the world is prosperous, and you will show me in the future. Is it true?"

"I will not lie."

"Two days ago, the Northwest was full of evil spirits. You came here again, because of this matter, right? Come, pull out a hair in the middle of my neck. If you are in danger, use this hair to call me by name."

"Ok?"
