I opened the Taoist Temple in Datang

Tie Niao carried Li Miaozhen and Xiaoli all the way north, and the weather was getting colder.

The forest under the clouds is all dyed, and it is colorful under the scorching sun.She looked up and saw the waves of rice rolling in the fields, and it was time for a good harvest.

The climate in southern Xinjiang is so suitable that Li Miaozhen has forgotten the seasons, and now it is the thirteenth autumn of Tianbao.

"Go, go down and buy some wine, and ask for directions by the way!"

Xiaoli jumped up happily, shaking off a lot of hair.Li Miaozhen glanced down and found the nearest village. From the cloud, there were about dozens of families.

She landed outside Guo, looked beyond the earthen wall, and saw that the fields of each family were drying millet.

Along the way, the villagers sitting idle in front of their houses were all looking at her.

Li Miaozhen didn't care much about these gazes, she was wearing a gray-blue Taoist robe, although it was plain, it couldn't hide her astonishing appearance.What's more, she also brought a lynx with her, glaring at the dogs in the village as if looking for trouble.

She stopped in front of the only wine shop in the village.

There is only one old woman selling wine in the wine shop, lighting a fire in front of the clay stove.When the old woman heard the footsteps, she straightened up tremblingly, and when she saw her sky-blue eyes and deep-featured foreign face, she was stunned, and murmured: "Is the honored guest here again?"

"Huh?" It was obviously her first time here.

The old woman was a little dazzled when she straightened up, but now she finally saw her clearly: "Oh, I'm so confused! What does the Taoist priest want to buy?"

Li Miaozhen said: "Let's grab a dime of wine and try it first."

Probably the villagers have some problem of being onlookers. Not long after Li Miaozhen sat down in the wine shop, a few children and idlers gathered outside to watch the excitement.She frowned slightly, but said nothing.

Now is the autumn harvest season, and it is noon, why are there so many idle people in the village?

She thought about it but didn't pay much attention to it. For a while, she looked for Shi Yilang everywhere, but she couldn't figure it out at all.When the old woman brought the wine, Xiao Li took a sip first and said, "It's so sweet!"

Since Xiaoli liked it, Li Miaozhen ordered the old woman to have another jar of wine.The golden wine is poured into the cup, it is indeed an old wine.

Before she could taste it, an idler walked into the restaurant and said to her, "Little lady, are you also here to collect things?"

Before she could answer, the idle man boasted again: "Although we are not beautiful, we are very strong! You can want me, or you can collect things. Just for the beauty of the little lady, we don't want money!"

boom.

Li Miaozhen put down the wine cup heavily.

The people who gathered outside the wine shop to watch the excitement sneered. She hadn't seen such a clumsy and low-level provocation for many years.The old woman couldn't bear it, and said with a trembling voice: "Oh, this little Taoist priest is not the one who came to collect the medicinal materials, why do you deceive the students?"

"It's none of your business to sell your wine."

"Go! Go! Go."

In the dimly lit tavern, Li Miaozhen watched coldly as the old woman was pushed and almost fell to the ground.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a jar of swill outside, so she pulled Xiaoli up, stood up and took two steps back.

The idle man laughed: "Little lady, this..." Before he finished speaking, the jar of swill appeared on top of his head out of thin air, brushed it, and it all fell down!

After leaving it for many days, the swill smelled extremely bad.The idle man was so smoked that he coughed again and again, and he was furious: "Who? Who is it?"

The people outside the restaurant witnessed the strange thing with their own eyes, and they were too frightened to speak.At this moment, Li Miaozhen said coldly: "Me."

She took out a piece of white paper, waved it casually, and the white paper turned into an iron plate and nailed the idle man's mouth: "Get lost, don't make me say it again."

The idle man was so frightened that he hurriedly rolled away, running out with hands and feet together: "Ugh...!"

The onlookers dispersed in a rush, and soon, calm was restored inside and outside the restaurant.Li Miaozhen was slightly sorry for dirtying the old woman's restaurant, so she put down a little more copper coins.

After carrying two jars of rice wine, Li Miaozhen was about to leave.She asked the old woman: "What are the people here waiting for? Selling people, or selling medicinal materials?"

It's not that she hasn't been to a mountain village before, but the people in this place speak and act strangely.

"Don't worry about it, Mr. Xiaodao, hey, the main reason is that you look a bit like Li Te! They thought you were also here to collect things..."

"what happened?"

"This matter, let's talk about it from a few days ago..."

……

According to the old woman, about half a month ago, a few Lite people came to the village.

As soon as they came, they spent a lot of money to buy the best-looking boy in the village, which made the village explode. After all, the money can be enough for the family to eat and drink for ten years.Unfortunately, not everyone has a beautiful son.

The Lite people then bought medicinal materials. This place is located in the Qinling Mountains, and it is surrounded by mountains. Usually, some people collect medicinal materials to sell.The village exploded again, because the money given by the Lite people was three times that of ordinary medicine shops.

They not only collect medicinal materials, but also ask for a few special things by name, so many people put down their farm work and go to the mountains to collect herbs.The old woman's grandson also went with the neighbor's house the day before yesterday, but she hasn't come back yet.

People in the village don't want to do farm work when they have money, so there are more and more idlers.No, they saw Li Miaozhen's special appearance, and thought she was also here to collect people and medicinal materials.

……

After the old woman finished speaking, Li Miaozhen pondered for a while and asked, "What medicinal materials are they?"

"How can we remember! Some are common, and some have never been heard of..."

She didn't know medicine either, but when she heard that the Lite people wanted a beautiful boy, she was instinctively wary.Li Miao was really going to ask her neighbors, when there were chaotic footsteps and crying outside the village.

"It's not good! Goro, he..."

The man cried and shouted too fast, she didn't hear clearly, but the old woman understood.Her face turned pale all of a sudden, she staggered and almost fell to the ground: "Goro, Goro?"

Li Miaozhen said: "What's wrong with Wulang?"

A lot of people surrounded the wine shop, including former villagers and those who just came back.After listening to their chatter, she finally understood: the old woman's grandson, Goro, fell off the cliff while gathering herbs!

Those who went with him rushed to look for it, but they didn't find anyone under the cliff.It was later discovered that Goro was hanging from a tree with a crooked neck in the middle of the cliff.But that place was very steep, no one dared to go down, so they had to go back to the village to find the rope.

"There's no need to look for the rope." Li Miaozhen threw the wine into the space, clapped her hands and said, "Let me go and have a look."

The people in the village saw her punishing the idler just now, and now they are helping Wulang again, and their expressions were a little delicate for a while.After all, she still cared about Wulang's life, so someone stepped forward and led her to save people.

On the cloud-shrouded mountains of the Qinling Mountains, a tanned boy clings tightly to a crooked tree on the cliff, his eyes closed like a lifeless person.

Li Miaozhen stepped into the void and observed him carefully: "Are you still alive?"

The young man suddenly opened his eyes, seeing such a beautiful woman suspended in the air, he was so frightened that his words turned upside down: "I will die!"

She quickly reached out to support the boy who was about her own age: "Wu Lang, hold on, you are still alive."

When Li Miaozhen mentioned it up, Goro was lifted up into the sky by her like a light feather.When Goro's feet stepped on the hard ground, he was still in a daze.

The person who brought Li Miaozhen here hurriedly told him what had happened, and Goro came to his senses and bowed down.

"Well, there is no need to be so polite."

She gave Goro a little help, and the latter stood up uncontrollably.Wu Lang became more and more awed, and heard Li Miaozhen say again: "What are you looking for?"

"Collecting and selling medicine," Goro sighed, "Oh, it's so difficult!"

He carefully glanced down the cliff, pointed to the grass growing in the stone peak, and told her that it was what the Lite people asked for by name.Before, he stumbled and fell just to pick grass.

Li Miaozhen asked: "How do you deliver the goods?"

"They gave the address, it's just under Lishan Mountain, not far from here." Goro said honestly.

Lishan, it seems that there is Li Longji's palace, Huaqing Palace.Li Miao really thought about it and said, "Just wait!"

She tiptoed lightly, and flew down in an instant, picking off the tender fairy grass with her own hands.

Lishan.

This place is the farthest from the emperor's Huaqing Palace, so there are several mountain families living at the foot of the mountain.It rained suddenly today, and the wind and rain frantically washed the ground, causing blisters.

The sound of horseshoes sounded, and a few vague figures could be seen faintly in the rain.Soon, several horses stopped in front of the wine shop, and the leader said: "The weather is really bad, anyway, it's not far away, let's take shelter from the rain first!"

"okay."

These people don't look very old, and they should look like Qianniuwei in their clothes.The shopkeepers hurried over to pour tea, and one of them took off his hat, revealing a handsome face.

His eyes fell on a Taoist priest in purple who was sitting in the corner of the wine shop, drinking wine for himself.The Taoist priest sat alone by the railing, staring at the raindrops like broken beads, in a daze.

"Su Fa, what are you looking at?" The person next to him asked him.

"I saw an old friend." Su Fa got up and said with a gentle smile, "You guys talk first, I'll go back as soon as I go."

Su Fa raised his feet and walked towards the Taoist priest. When he got to the Taoist priest's table, he did not forget to salute: "Master Luo Xian."

Luo Gongyuan's thoughts drifted back from an ancient tomb. He was not very happy to see Su Fa, but said lightly, "It's you?"

"I passed by here with my colleagues, and I didn't expect to meet Master Luo." Su Fa said happily, "You... alone?"

"Yes." He said lonely.

Su Fa wanted to inquire about the princess, but he was too embarrassed to ask directly, so he asked Master Luo first: "You have something sad too?"

Luo Gongyuan didn't want to say anything to him at first, but when he thought about it, this one was also rejected by the princess, so he felt a little sympathetic to each other, and through his drunkenness, he whispered: "She is also very tired of me."

Su Fa:? ? ?

Who is she, is she Luo Xianshi's sweetheart?Su Fa didn't think much, let alone guess whether it was the princess.

After all, in his opinion, Immortal Luo is a good god who set them up.

He comforted him aloud: "Master Immortal, let me tell you, as long as you don't give up, and the marriage is destined, you will definitely have hope! Look at me and the princess, wasn't she also impatient with me at the beginning? But in my Work hard, last time in Guanzhong, you also saw that the princess has changed a lot for me!"

The more Su Fa thought about it, the happier he became, and he smiled shyly: "When the princess comes back again, I will ask my father to ask for a marriage proposal for me. My father, Princess Shang, should be enough with my family's lintel? At that time, I will definitely invite Master Luo to come... "

Luo Gongyuan's face was almost frozen, he didn't make a sound, but he crushed the wine cup in his hand, the broken porcelain cut his finger, blood and wine flowed down together, but he didn't know it.
