【Lotus Cake】Brother, please respect yourself

Since entering the Central Plains in March, Li Li's memories are full of horseback riding, launching, boating, staying in a hotel, running, riding a horse, taking a boat, staying in a hotel, and back and forth for a long time. What I didn't see, I finally found my master. Li Li thought that his colorful life was about to begin, but within two days, after Ao Bing knew that Li Li was Nezha's apprentice, the look in his eyes changed. up.

Although Ao Bing has lost his internal strength now, Kunshan martial arts is extensive and profound. He was also a martial idiot who liked to read various martial arts secrets. After watching Li Li's morning exercise with a frown, Ao Bing took a bamboo stick , holding Nezha's waist and expressing - how can you practice moves if you haven't done the basic skills well? If the posture is not correct, it will become a habit. defect.

After the long conversation, Li Li was stunned. He thought that Nezha was already a strict master, but he didn't expect that the handsome and handsome master would be even more terrifying when he taught martial arts. .

Being whipped by Ao Bing with a cane for seven or eight days, Li Li burst into tears and almost collapsed, but his only support is Nezha, and for Nezha who was beaten by Ao Bing since he was a child, he can see a kind The guy who encountered the same situation as me was really in a good mood, and he could eat an extra bowl of rice.

"Master! Who is your apprentice!"

Looking at Nezha who was eating fruit with his waist straight, Li Li wanted to hug his master's thigh and howl, this guy, he doesn't mean anything!

"Come, come, take a look."

Picking up the teapot on the table and pouring himself a cup of tea, Nezha squinted and nodded at Yang Jian on his left, and then motioned Li Li to turn his head to look at Ao Bing who was standing outside the house and dancing his sword under the tree.

"Does it look good?"

Li Li turned his head around and looked around, and found that the three brothers, Ao Bing, Yang Jian, and Nezha, although they have different looks, they all have a kind of vigor of pines and cypresses in their temperament. Don't look at Nezha usually lying on the table Physically he doesn't have a straight shape, but if you really see him doing serious things, you can't find any faults in his appearance.

"It looks good." Li Li nodded with bright eyes.

"It was all brought out by your uncle."

Yang Jian didn't stay under Ao Bing for a long time, but he has always remembered the teaching method of his elder brother. After all, among the inner disciples in Kunshan, Yang Jian's birth is already very bad, so he worked hard He is also very obedient, in order to get out of the mountain as soon as possible, he was also called Desperate Saburo by Yu Ding.

That's it, during the two years of studying with Ao Bing, Yang Jian once doubted whether his master had given him water, but the final result was still very remarkable. After seeing the tall and handsome Yang Jian , Yu Ding gave Ao Bing a thumbs up, and sure enough, the little disciple brought up by the master is different.

"Is master so powerful?!"

"Your uncle is a combination of a strict father and a loving mother, otherwise your master would not be raised like this now." He patted the table and shook his head secretly. Yang Jian didn't have Nezha's luck back then. To celebrate his birthday, he was still not angry or angry, and he could even be pleasant to the little junior brother who pushed his nose up.

"That means being both a father and a mother." Blinking his eyes at Nezha in a daze, Li Li felt that this idea was a bit weird.

"What are you talking about?" After practicing the sword, Ao Bing walked into the room with flushed cheeks. When he lowered his head, he saw Li Li kneeling on the ground wiping tears. Nezha at the top was calm and relaxed, as if nothing had happened.

"Say whether you want to give Li Li an additional time to practice sitting and standing postures every day."

"What?!" Li Li exclaimed!

"Okay." Ao Bing felt that there was no problem at all.

"Wow, master, you are too much." Li Li finally understood that his master just wanted to make him unlucky, and then threw him to his uncle.

"I'm doing it for your own good."

It doesn't hurt Nezha to sit and talk, how can an apprentice live more easily than a master, no matter how you think about it, it doesn't make sense.

Letting go of Li Li who was sold by Nezha, Shen Gongbao's destination this time is Donglai County, but after October, it is easy to encounter heavy snowstorms when traveling north, and Ao Bing has never Going out to sea, although the people belong to the Ao family, it seems that the atmosphere of the Ao family has not been contaminated at all, so Nezha suggested that they go south and ride horses all the way. After arriving in Jiangdu County, when the east wind blows in spring, they go directly to the sea. , around the coast to Dongnae.

However, they walked for a while, and when they arrived at Zhongli County, Reverend Yuding, who was running alone, suddenly sent a letter, saying that his friend from many years ago, the medical saint Fenghou, was in Danyang, not far from Zhongli County, When Nezha was injured and fell off a cliff before going crazy, the real Yuding had looked for his friend, but unfortunately, the other party came and went without a trace, firstly because he was afraid of being harassed by the powerful, and secondly because he was worried that someone would repay his favor, so Nezha missed it once. Great chance to save lives.

In the past three years, Nezha's skills have recovered and improved to a higher level, but after all the previous fights have left behind hidden illnesses, and Ao Bing's face is not very good when he checks the opponent's pulse every day.

Hearing that Ao Bing was going to find Fenghou, Shen Gongbao frowned and said with a smile: "Do you want to take Nezha to see a doctor or go to see a doctor yourself?"

Ao Bing straightened his shoulders and said that of course he took Nezha to see it. Although he lost his internal strength, he had no internal injuries and chronic diseases, and he could recover after practicing hard.

"Stupid." Knocking on the table, he said something to the little apprentice with a half-smile, and Shen Gongbao waved his hand to show that he knew.

After being scolded for no reason, Ao Bing didn't know what his master was talking about after returning home.Is he really so stupid? !

"Since your master agrees, let's go."

Now that the goal has been achieved, it is natural that there is no time to delay. The day when the four of them went on the road was still in the early morning before dawn. Nezha took Ao Bing, Yang Jian carried Li Li, and the four of them slipped away quietly. .

Afterwards, Ao Bing was still a little scared. After all, if he left Shen Gongbao so quietly, the possibility of the other party not getting angry was completely zero.

"Is your master more important or me?"

Holding Ao Bing's slender fingers, Nezha leaned over his head and started asking questions. He was about to get off his horse when he was blocked by the other party. Ao Bing raised his head and said - the junior is important, the junior is the most important, with the junior, everyone has to step aside stand.

"I'll teach you a way to curry favor with your master." Riding behind his seniors and juniors on horseback, Yang Jian's eyes flickered, he reached out and hooked twice, motioning for Li Li to come over. There was a lot of chatter, and when it was time to stay at night, the attentive Li Li asked Ao Bing and Nezha for a room. Not only that, he also got a bunch of red cloth to wrap the pillow and quilt in bright red and orange.

As soon as Ao Bing entered the room, he was scared back by the burning scene. Before he could understand the process, Nezha nodded in satisfaction.

"Ruzi can be taught."

"Is this what you want?"

Seeing that Ao Bing raised his eyebrows and was about to get angry, Nezha immediately waved himself away. As the chief envoy who made plans, Yang Jian was sitting in a room on the other side of the inn drinking tea. He didn't want to listen to the erotic sex all night .

In fact, Yang Jian still underestimated Ao Bing's ability. Early the next morning, his elder brother knocked on the door, and then carried Li Li, who was sleepy in the room, out to practice.

For the next ten or so days, Li Li's life was full of excitement, and his martial arts improved by leaps and bounds, and Nezha never mentioned the matter of getting married again.

After arriving in Danyang, the whereabouts of the medical sage Fenghou was unknown again. Yang Jian took out the letter from the real Yuding and began to investigate this medical sage who was eccentric, but Ao Bing vaguely remembered that he had met him when he was a child. When he died of acne, the medical sage was not on the mountain. Yuding later wrote a letter to scold Fenghou for this, saying that you would avoid him every time there was an important event.

Ao Bing won't be leaving for the time being if he can't see the medical saint Fenghou. Nezha is still skeptical about getting rid of Shen Gongbao. They find a small courtyard in the city to live in. Jiang Ziya from the fish basket came to give gifts, and the gift he gave was naturally his basket of lake fish.

"Uncle, why didn't you go with us that day." Ao Bing asked aloud.

"Your master, you can't eat when you see me." Jiang Ziya said with a smile.

He stroked his beard and admired Ao Bing's cooking skills for a while. After a fish was dried and put into the pot, Li Li, who had been tortured by his master, was also driven in to wash rice and make a fire.

"Uncle, has my master been beaten by you before?"

Holding the fan and blowing his face black and gray, Li Li coughed and moved away from the stove. Ao Bing, who was cooking, added some water to the pot, covered it and started to simmer.

"I want to fight." Li Nezha would not be as obedient as Li Li, saying that he would reply ten sentences a sentence, not only would he reply but would also jump up and down like a little monkey. Ao Bing had never seen such a noisy child before. When the two met suddenly, he was startled by Nezha's liveliness.

"Suddenly feel a little... relieved?" Tilting his head and wiping the sweat from his forehead, Li Li's mentality became balanced, so it can be said that Master had suffered a lot back then.

"He is the one who gets beaten the most in Kunshan. You are incomparable."

"Is Master so stupid?"

"He's not stupid, he's skin."

Taking the dishcloth and putting the lid aside, Ao Bing tasted it with a shovel and found the taste to be okay.

"Master looks very...steady." At least it can be as cold as winter when dealing with the enemy, but at other times, it's not so much.

"It's much better now than before." However, the price of this change is too heavy, and Ao Bing hopes that nothing happens, and Nezha is still as laughing and troubled as before.

"So, uncle, can you hit me more lightly next time?"

Anyway, I'm not as disobedient as Master, and I won't get more meat if I skip a beating.

"I can give you an extra egg."

That is to say, you can't play less.

In fact, there is no necessary connection between multiple eggs and less beating, but after serving the table, Li Li looked at the extra egg in his bowl, and his back hurt.

Nezha poked the bowl with his chopsticks, glanced at the little apprentice, and then dropped the fish head into the bowl with a click.

"Fish eye beads are a good thing, eat them to improve eyesight."

Bending down to grab a piece of fish for each of the juniors in front of him, Jiang Ziya sucked on his chopsticks and let out a long sigh of relief. Having an apprentice like Ao Bing is really worry-free.

"You believe this kind of thing that deceives children, uncle." After smashing the fish head in the bowl, Nezha took two mouthfuls of rice with braised crucian carp soup. The place with the fewest thorns was picked into the Nezha bowl.

"There are some things that if you believe in them, you will have them. If you don't believe them, you won't have them. There is a certain reason for sincerity and sincerity."

With his head down, he silently flipped away the tail with the most thorns. Yang Jian felt that the elder brother was also being led badly. The other party was obviously not so partial before.

"Master, how did you get Eunuch Shen down the mountain?"

After eating the fish that Ao Bing gave, Nezha glanced at the other party again. Ao Bing frowned when he received the sight, and filled Nezha with a piece of braised pork in an angry and funny manner.

"That's a long story."

He looked at Nezha with sideways eyes. Although the other party smiled narrowly, it was obvious that Ao Bing wanted to know this question, but unfortunately, with Ao Bing's character, he definitely didn't dare to inquire.

"It's okay, all we have now is time."

Ao Bing would definitely not want to leave without seeing Marquis Feng, and this place is no secret, Shen Gongbao will find it sooner or later.After the beginning of spring, you can go to Donglai by waterway, whether it is in the house or on the boat, you can actually practice martial arts. Ao Bing used to have a good foundation and high talent, so it is not difficult to recover. The main thing is to deal with this kind of situation. Psychological gap.

"Hey, it's really nothing. He just got into a dead end, and then he couldn't get out, so he made himself autistic."

After picking up the rice in the bowl, Jiang Ziya praised Li Li a few words, saying that the other party's rice was cooked well, the grains were distinct, and it was very chewy. Although it was raw, it was different and unique.

"Your master, he went up the mountain later than me. I found out that there was no way to survive, so I went up the mountain to sweep the ground, but he was forced to go up the mountain. Moreover, he was not a vegetarian at the beginning. How can a martial arts practitioner not eat it? For meat, the world will be in chaos and food will be scarce, so he will eat whatever he has, but he can't."

Shen Gongbao wants to survive more than anyone else - if he can.

After all, he was still the second eldest in the family, with an older brother and a younger sister. When the famine came, the parents first abandoned the weak younger sister, and later sold the older son who looked more fleshy in exchange for more food. In this way, relying on the weight of their children, they lived for a long time. Every time they smelled the smell of their parents cooking broth, Shen Gongbao would be so hungry that his stomach was cramped and his saliva was drooling. But he knew that as long as he ate this, he would eat No longer a person.

"He wanted to eat meat, but he would vomit when he smelled meat. It got better later on, otherwise he would have to hide alone when we ate, and he didn't speak for a long time, so he stuttered badly. Have you never seen your master speak? When he was in a bad situation, although no one laughed at him, he felt that everyone was sympathizing with him, so he bit a stone to pronounce it, and it rotted in his mouth, and the gravel could be brought out by drinking water, like this for a year or two , Three years, until the master accepted him as an apprentice, he suddenly stopped stammering."

Yuanshi Tianzun took in many disciples in his life, but only twelve of them stayed in Kunshan in the end. Even Jiang Ziya, who was favored by him back then, chose to go down the mountain in the end.

"So Eunuch Shen went down the mountain with you, uncle?"

"Actually, I was the one who went down the mountain first."

When Jiang Ziya went down the mountain, it was the time when Otsuka Zai Yuwenhu was in charge of the government. This nephew of Zhou Wendi Yuwentai, since the death of his uncle, supported Yuwentai's third son to ascend the throne, was promoted to the Duke of Jin, and was ranked as the Great Sima. The power is so great that it can cover the sky with one hand. Later, because Emperor Xiaomin Yu Wenjue had a conflict with him, he demoted the 16-year-old young emperor to the Duke of Lueyang. Many years after his death, his younger brother Yu Wenyong Posthumously named Emperor Zhou Xiaomin.

Yuwenjue died tragically at the hands of Yuwenhu after only one month in power. Three years after his death, Yuwenhu supported Yuwentai's fourth son, Yuwenyong, to the throne. Send this powerful minister to the road of ransacking his family and exterminating his family.

When Jiang Ziya went down the mountain, it happened to be the year when Yuwenhu and the Turks failed to conquer the Northern Qi Dynasty. This year was not easy for Yuwenhu. His prestige was greatly reduced, and at this time Emperor Wu of Zhou, Yu Wenyong, was already twenty years old, and he was dissatisfied with the Duke of Jin who had dominated the government for many years.

The game between imperial power and military power caused chaos within the state of Zhou. Jiang Ziya traveled all the way, saw and listened to a lot, and when he returned to the mountain, he found that Shen Gongbao, who had been at odds with him, had returned with a child in his arms.

"The reason why your master doesn't like me is that the master wanted to give me the position of head teacher back then."

Jiang Ziya really had no idea about that position, but Yuanshi Tianzun chose him, so he accepted it, but later he found that being the head teacher of Kunshan could not change anything, he could not save the hungry people at the foot of the mountain, and he could not change the chaos in the world , Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to avoid the world and follow the waves, but he wanted to go upstream.

"He wanted to compete with me all his life, so after I went down the mountain, he also went down the mountain, but just happened to encounter floods, refugees were everywhere, and more than half of them were killed or injured. It's you, how would you choose?"

For Ao Bing, this question is very simple, but also very difficult.

Compared with those children who starved to death, he was already considered lucky. He was able to meet Shen Gongbao, go up to Kunshan, be loved by his master, and be protected by the elders. Will answer without hesitation, but he has gone down the mountain.

If the mountain is a fairyland, then the bottom of the mountain is the human world. Going forward, the mountain is the human world, and the bottom is purgatory. Shen Gongbao came back from purgatory and brought a small life.

"Actually, you don't have to feel ashamed of him, because it is your existence that saved your master."

Shen Gongbao has a demon in his heart, and Yuanshi Tianzun once tried to resolve it, but failed in the end.

After descending the mountain, Shen Gongbao faced the demon again. This time, it was the appearance of Ao Bing who interrupted his further downward steps.

When Ao Bing was three years old, Yu Wenhu's status in the court had gradually declined. The new emperor Yu Wenyong was like a rising sun. In the end, Shen Gongbao will choose to turn his back on Shimen and Ao Bing, and leave alone, just for one day, he can get the position below that one person and above ten thousand people.

What a privilege it is to control the life and death of the imperial power and the survival of the people at the fingertips.

Jiang Ziya thought for a long time before he gradually understood Shen Gongbao's thoughts.

He has been to Kunlun to see how high the sky is, he has learned from Tianzun and seen how strong people are, he has gone through the flames of war to know how life is broken, and he has also witnessed the powerlessness of the imperial power.

Shen Gongbao didn't understand why he was inferior to Jiang Ziya on Kunshan Mountain, and he didn't understand why people can be so different after he went down the mountain. When his brother and sister were killed, what were those people who were sitting in the mountains and rivers doing?

"Your master thinks too much and wants too much, so he will go crazy in the end, and the six relatives will not recognize you. You are worth enough to him now, but it is not certain whether those affections can stop him in the future."

After saying this, Jiang Ziya warmed the Dou Mi Mao Yuan Soup with his internal force. After pouring down the hot soup, he breathed a sigh of relief with the refreshing pleasure.

"Aren't masters going to prevent me from going back to Ao's house?"

Jiang Ziya asked Ao Bing to investigate before moving, but Ao Bing couldn't understand the changes, so this time he came to Feng Hou first because of Nezha, and second because he needed some time to sort out his thoughts.

"The Eastern Expedition next year is already imperative for Emperor Sui. If you win this battle, the Ao family will be safe. If you lose this battle, the Ao family will be in danger. If you go back this time, you may be able to resolve a fight. "

Halfway through talking, it has become a habit of a master of Taoism. Yuanshi Tianzun likes to do it, and Jiang Ziya likes to do it too. After he is full and runs away, Ao Bing becomes a little entangled again, but fortunately he didn't wait for him to tangle After a while, Yang Jian found Fenghou, a medical saint addicted to gambling, through the information left by his master.

If Yang Jian hadn't come in early, this old man who lost even his underwear would probably be stomped.

"Oh, Yuding'er is really awesome, please help me when you get back, thank you master."

Holding his trouser belt, he entered the door with a smile on his face, and waited for Feng Hou to be welcomed into the house by Ao Bing.

Nezha, who was sitting cross-legged on the beauty's couch, raised his eyelids and glanced at her for a while. He was underestimated by a young man, and Fenghou hummed unhappily. Be polite.

Raising his hand to pat Nezha on the back of the head, Ao Bing pulled Li Mozun's arm with staring eyes, and then pressed it on the table for Fenghou to see.

The old man lifted two fingers up and raised his lowered brows instantly, but he rolled off the table with a whoosh.

"How is this possible?!"
