The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 2423 Meeting Zong Sheng in Jiutaoju

The mountain road steps spiraled up, and at the end was a mountaintop courtyard shaded by peach blossoms.

Fang Yun had just reached the foot of the mountain when he saw four scholars coming forward.

Three university scholars and one Hanlin.

The three university scholars were fine, but the Hanlin was particularly surprised to see Fang Yun.

This Hanlin was called Zong Ming. He was ordered by Zong Ganyu to Jiutaoju as a keeper at the Yueyang Tower Literary Meeting. He was also the only member of the Zong family who did not lose his literary talent after going to the Yueyang Tower Literary Meeting.

The three university scholars looked gloomy, which was the result of trying their best to cover up.

On the other hand, Zong Ming was just pure surprise. The thirty-year-old Hanlin took the initiative to smile and bowed forward, saying: "Zong Ming greets Fang Xusheng. I wonder what Fang Xusheng is doing here?"

Fang Yun looked at Zong Ming in surprise. He didn't expect that this person would be so casual, and he felt that this person seemed to be familiar. Then his memory went back to the scene of the Yueyang Tower Literary Meeting that year, and he even heard the conversation between Zong Ming and Zong Ganyu, the head of the Zong family.

Fang Yun looked at Zong Ming with a smile and nodded, "Zong family Qilinzi."

Zong Ming looked flattered, and then waved his hands hurriedly and said: "I have no grudges against you, you can't flatter me like this. Three elders, misunderstanding, this is all misunderstanding, should I curse a few words to prove my innocence?"

The three university scholars knew this person's temperament long ago and rolled their eyes at him.

One of the university scholars said: "Did the Zong family know that Fang Xusheng was here?"

"I don't know." Fang Yun said.

"Does the Emperor know?"

"I don't know either."

The university scholar said, "Since you don't know, please go back. The Emperor is practicing and should not be disturbed."

Fang Yun took out a jade box with the Holy Body Fruit in it and threw it to Zong Ming. He smiled and said, "Go to Jiu Tao Ju and tell His Majesty the Emperor that I'm here to see you. This is my gift to His Majesty the Emperor. As for you..."

Fang Yun glanced at the three university scholars and asked, "Are you going to force me to fight?"

The three were still hesitating, but Zong Ming ran up the mountain holding the jade box. The three looked helpless.

Not long after, Zong Ming ran down with a smile, panting a little and said, "Fang Xu Sheng, the ancestor asks you to go up."

Fang Yun nodded and drove the Wu Hou car up the mountain.

The university scholar angrily said, "Why don't you get off the car and walk slowly at the residence of the Zongsheng?"

Fang Yun coughed three times expressionlessly and said, "I'm sick."

The three university scholars were so angry that they blew their beards and glared. Fang Yun was too lazy to fake his cough, and was simply laughing at them.

Zong Ming rolled his eyes and trotted behind the Wuhou car.

"Where are you going?" the university scholar said angrily.

Zong Ming looked as if he was asking if you were stupid, and said, "Go and watch the fun!"

The three university scholars looked like they were disappointed with each other, then looked at each other, stepped forward helplessly, and went together.

The meeting between the Zongsheng and Fang Yun was enough to shock the Shengyuan Continent, how could they miss it!

Although Fang Yun was in the Wuhou car, he was still polite. The Wuhou car rose step by step and moved forward, always parallel to the steps.

The three university scholars saw Fang Yun like this, and their anger was mostly gone.

After a long time, Fang Yun arrived outside the courtyard on the top of the mountain.

On the plaque in front of the main gate of the courtyard, the words "Jiu Tao" were written.

The two characters were strong and majestic, and a grand aura came to the face. Compared with the peach blossoms all over the mountain, it actually had a different kind of beauty.

The door was half-closed.

Fang Yun held the door knocker and knocked gently.

Dong Dong Dong.

There was no sound inside.

Fang Yun knocked three more times.

Dong Dong Dong.

Still no one responded inside.

Fang Yun said loudly: "Fang Yun, a student from Jingguo, came to collect debts."

When Zong Ming and the other four heard Fang Yun's words, their faces changed and they were almost scared to death. Fang Yun was simply amazing. He asked a half-saint to collect debts?

Then, the four of them showed a look of realization.

When Wenquxing was shattered, the fragments of Wenquxing were scattered all over the world. Many pieces fell on Shengyuan Continent, one of which fell in Fang Yun's Governor's Mansion. As a result, Zong Sheng actually forcibly took the fragments of Wenquxing for himself.

No one dared to talk about this matter on the discussion list, and the people of Qing did not dare to talk about it privately. However, the people of Jing always pointed fingers at others, but they could do nothing about it.

Who dared to ask for the things that the half-saint had robbed?

Fang Yun dared!

Zong Ming looked at Fang Yun with undisguised admiration. At this moment, he felt that Fang Yun was as tall as the Zong Sheng.

With a creak, Fang Yun pushed open the gate of the courtyard and entered the courtyard.

There was a pavilion in the courtyard with peeling red paint. On the white stone table in the pavilion, there was a set of purple clay teapots and tea sets.

A middle-aged man with black hair was sitting sideways to Fang Yun, pouring tea for the cup in front of him.

This man was wearing a black robe and a small crown with a gray-silver bun on his head. Only half of his face was visible. He was not stained with dust and frost, his face was white and beardless, and his skin was smooth. He seemed to be less than 30 years old, but overall, he could not be associated with young people anyway.

I don't know if it was because of his imposing manner like a mountain in front of me, or the natural aura around him like a river, or the leisurely atmosphere among the peach blossoms.

This person sitting there seems to be ordinary, but he is not an ordinary person.

Fang Yun sat in the Wuhou car and moved forward slowly, smiling: "Fang Yun of Jingguo, I pay my respects to Zong Sheng."

Fang Yun bowed in the Wuhou car.

Zong Ming and the other four were extremely helpless. Even Zong Ganyu, the head of the Zong family, had to kowtow to Zong Sheng. Fang Yun was simply here to act like a boss.

But Zong Sheng didn't even look at Fang Yun and said, "Why don't you bow?"

Zong Ming almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

Fang Yun smiled and said, "I am seriously injured and it is inconvenient. Please forgive me, Zong Sheng."

"I heard that Mr. Jinglong treated you personally and you are fine." Zong Sheng still didn't look at Fang Yun and said to himself.

"Who can say for sure about this kind of thing? I was attacked by the strongest will of the Burial Valley, which is almost equivalent to the power of the Holy Ancestor. I can rest for three to five years before I can rest assured." Fang Yun smiled and walked forward and sat opposite Zong Sheng.

Fang Yun looked at Zong Sheng again, his face was stern.

Because, what appeared in front of Fang Yun was a very strange scene.

Before entering from the main gate, he saw Zong Sheng sitting on the left, with his right half of his face facing him. Now he was sitting opposite Zong Sheng at the stone table, but he could still see Zong Sheng's right side face.

Fortunately, Fang Yun had seen many strange things, so he smiled slightly and went to get the teapot to pour tea for himself.

However, another strange scene appeared. The teapot was clearly in front of him, but Fang Yun could not touch it no matter how hard he moved forward.

"Alas..."

Fang Yun sighed, took out the teapot from the heaven and earth shell, and then took out a jade bottle and a jade box.

When the jade box was opened, white smoke expanded inside and condensed into a three-foot-high white tea tree in the air.

There were no tea leaves on the tea tree, but green fish.

The green fish played and swam around the white tea tree as if in water.

Zong Ming and the other four stood outside the courtyard door, secretly amazed.

Then, Fang Yun opened the jade bottle.

A strange fragrance as clear as milk spread from the jade bottle. The jade bottle, which was only one foot high, actually emitted the sound of waves hitting the shore, which was particularly grand, and there was a faint sound of a giant dragon breathing.

"I have never seen the tea fish, but I have heard of it. What is the water in the jade bottle?"

Zong Ming and the other four were even more surprised. There was something that even Zong Sheng didn't know.
