Early the next morning, the dean sat on a chair and drank porridge quietly.
In the yard, Yang Dazhi was teasing his granddaughter while his grandson was sleeping soundly in his daughter-in-law's arms.
Fulgan ran around, looking at this and that, his face full of joy.
Although he is not his biological child, he has identified his wife in this life and will never divorce her and marry her. The result he has today is considered a success.
After staring at the scene in front of him for a long time, the dean put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "Luo Guan, let's go."
Luo Guan nodded. He took the dean with him without disturbing the Yang family, and the two disappeared at the end of the town.
It was already the fifth day since Liangzhou took action with his sword. Luo Guan could clearly feel that the dean's life fire was about to expire.
Getting on the boat at the dock, Luo Guan hesitated again and again, but still did not speak.
At the end of his life, it is up to him to decide where he wants to go.
After the boat sailed for a day, the dean, who was leaning against the cabin, suddenly sighed, "Luo Guan."
"Dean, please tell me."
"Take me there, this boat is running too slow!" The dean frowned, a little dissatisfied.
The boat boss happened to pass by and raised his eyebrows immediately, "Old man, you can go and find out. My Aman family's boat is the fastest on this river. If you are still not satisfied, then you can only fly over. "
The passengers on the deck nodded after hearing this, saying that the ship boss was right, this was indeed the fastest ship.
Luo Guan held up his hands and said, "Sorry, we are in a hurry." He carried the dean on his back and walked to the bow of the ship, then jumped forward.
"ah!"
As everyone screamed, a pair of black wings suddenly unfolded, the strong wind stirred up the water waves, and the ship shook violently.
The boss of the ship lost his balance and fell to the deck with a "slap", but he seemed to have forgotten the pain and stared straight at the horizon with his eyes wide open.
Flying...
It actually really flew!
The dean showed the way, and it only took Luo Guan half an hour to arrive outside a city. As soon as he landed, he heard the sound of rapid horse hooves, accompanied by bursts of excited shouts.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Whoever reaches Chengtou Mountain first today, I will reward you heavily!" The leader was a young man in a brocade robe, whipping his horse constantly with a high-spirited look on his face.
Behind him, a group of young men and women, all riding tall horses, roared out of the city. This caused passers-by to exclaim and dodge to both sides. An old woman picking vegetables was a little slow to dodge and was whipped to the ground.
"Did you get blinded? If you dare to block my way, get out of my way!" The young master in Jinpao shouted angrily and galloped away on horseback.
A group of people came and left quickly, but outside the city gate there were already people on their backs.
But they seemed to know that behind Mr. Jinpao, or they had already gotten used to everything today, they were silently picking up the pieces.
A young official in a green robe led people to chase them out of the city. He looked at a group of young men on horseback and walked away, gnashing his teeth angrily.
"Lawless!"
"Our Qingyang laws strictly prohibit riding horses in downtown areas. They have committed three injuries in the past month. It is simply unreasonable!"
The person accompanying him smiled bitterly, walked over quickly, and whispered something.
The young official not only refused to listen, but became even more angry, "Even if he has made great contributions to the country and the country, he cannot do this!"
He walked over and helped the knocked down old woman up. Looking at the bloody whip marks on her face, his face suddenly turned red.
"Now that I have done my job, as the gate officer of Tongzhou City, as long as I stay in this position, I will serve the court and the people."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Responsible. "
"Come on, come with me to Zhougong Street, lock the door and get the notice!"
One kind of subordinate hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to be dead.
The young official roared angrily, "You don't dare to go? I'll go alone! Let's see if there is any king's law in this world!"
He turned around and left. The people accompanying him looked at each other and couldn't help but feel a headache. They secretly cursed that this stupid young man was their superior. If he caused trouble, everyone would be in trouble as well.
"Hurry and report to the city lord!"
A group of people hurried into the city.
The crowd dispersed, some looked excited, some shouted loudly, but more often than not, they had wry smiles and numbness on their faces.
It seems that the outcome of this matter has been expected.
"Let's go into the city." The dean said softly. He couldn't hear the ups and downs of emotions, but there was a trace of tiredness that could not be concealed.
Although Tongzhou is named after "zhou", its area is not large. However, the avenues in the city are very wide, and the roads are covered with flat bluestone slabs and lined with green trees on both sides.
After passing through two intersections and turning left, the already wide avenue nearly doubled in an instant. A large mansion was visible in the distance, with two stone lions at the door, each more than ten feet tall, and impressive.
On both sides of the road, apart from this house, there is no other house, which shows its power.
At the gate of the city, the young official whom I had seen before was now shouting something outside the mansion, his face full of anger.
Opposite him was probably a certain housekeeper in the mansion. He was slightly fat and wore a seemingly inconspicuous but actually luxurious brocade robe. There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth. Before the young official could finish speaking, he waved his hand. Several guards guarding the gatehouse came forward and pushed him away, trying to drive him away.
Luo Guan narrowed his eyes. He dared to be so arrogant to court officials. This family was indeed an extraordinary family.
At this moment, the sound of hooves came again, and the Lord of Tongzhou City hurried over, ordered someone to stop the young official, scolded him a few words, and when he turned to face the housekeeper, he was already smiling.
The two parties exchanged a few words, and the steward pointed at the young official with a bad expression on his face. The city lord smiled apologetically and explained. The butler's face looked better and he led the people back to the house.
"Let's go, let's take this guy away!"
When others couldn't pull him, the city lord came over in person and grabbed the young official, "Wang Yue, can I beg you as my brother? This Zhou family cannot move at all."
"Alas! Starting from tomorrow, you will stop being a city gate officer. I will write a letter and tell my uncle to transfer you elsewhere."
The young official roared angrily, "I'm not wrong. No matter how powerful the Zhou family is, he still dares to kill me..." The next words were covered by someone's mouth and turned into an angry hesitation.
The city lord took the people away, and the street returned to silence. The two stone lions at the door raised their heads proudly, seeming to disdain them at all.
The two people, one old and one young, fell into silence.
"guessed?"
"……Um."
Luo Guan finally understood why the dean came here at the end of his life.
Fallen leaves return to their roots.
The Zhou family was so powerful that even a mere housekeeper could make the lord of a city laugh.
It's the dean's Zhou family!
"Don't disturb them, go in first."
From this sentence, Luo Guan tasted the complicated meaning. He said nothing and nodded.
With Luo Guan's current level of cultivation, if he deliberately concealed himself, he could remain unnoticed even during the day.
The two passed through the Zhou family's vast and luxurious mansion, and finally stopped outside a main hall.
There is a middle-aged man sitting in a wheelchair. He is holding a book and is quiet.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
read.
Suddenly, I don’t know what he read, and he became excited. He threw the book out violently and yelled, "Father is kind and son is filial? That's bullshit. Father is kind and son is filial! That's all this stuff is written in this saint's book. It doesn't make sense." s things!"
The middle-aged man's face turned red and he gritted his teeth. His ferocious appearance was completely different from before.
The dean closed his eyes and said softly: "I was born in a remote village dozens of miles away from this city. I have four brothers and sisters. They have lived in poverty since they were young and have never had a few meals. So, When I became famous in the Imperial Martial Arts and gained some status, I couldn't wait to move my parents, two brothers and one sister to the city, thinking that they would enjoy happiness from now on and no longer suffer any misery."
"After that, my status became higher and higher until I took over the Emperor Wu and became a figure above the clouds in Qingyang Kingdom. This county, whose real name is Tonghua, was also renamed Tongzhou... It is a state and it belongs to my Zhou family. Zhou! At that moment, the Zhou family had unprecedented glory. After I found out about this, even though I didn’t show it to anyone, I was secretly happy for a long time. "
"I know that people's hearts are fickle, but I didn't expect that the people closest to me would become like that... Five years later, I returned to Tongzhou City and personally killed my eldest brother, imprisoned my second brother, and sent my brother-in-law to prison. Border customs, breaking my son's legs and leaving him with a lifelong disability."
"That's right, the person in front of you is my eldest son." The dean opened his eyes and said in a serious tone, "The Zhou family became rich because of me, but they also lost their family ties with me."
"You should be careful about what you do today and keep it in your mind. Maybe it will be a situation you face many years from now... Just think of it as the last lesson I teach you."
Luo Guan was silent. When he returned to Jiangning, he had already discovered some changes in the clan.
And that was only a short year!
"...Thank you, Dean. Disciple knows."
This lesson has nothing to do with spiritual practice, but is related to human hearts and family ties.
Worldly fetters, if not handled well, will also be boundless karma!
The dean took another deep look at his son who was still going crazy, and said tiredly: "Let's go, take me somewhere else."
Ten miles outside the city, three large tombs were built. The dean knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully.
"Father, mother, my son is back to see you."
After one sentence, the dean, who had always remained calm since he entered Tongzhou, had red circles in his eyes.
That year, the Zhou family in Tongzhou experienced drastic changes. The old man of the Zhou family fell ill on the spot and passed away three days later.
The old lady also died in depression one month later.
The Zhou family was destroyed!
"Dad, before you died, you didn't let your son in... You didn't let your son in!" The dean's voice was hoarse. "I have to kill my eldest brother. The mistakes he made are too big. Why can't you?" , understand your son’s difficulties?”
"Although, before my mother passed away, she said she didn't blame me... but my son knows that she did. She blamed me for being too cold to my little sister's family... but I can't help it, I really can't help it!"
"Now that my son is about to die, I hope that you two elders can forgive me... Boss, if you have resentment towards me, then wait until you are underground and fight with me again. This time, I will not fight back and let you take care of yourself. Take a breath.”
In front of the grave, the dean could not kneel down and could not stand up.
Luo Guan took a deep breath and bowed, "Well done, Dean!"
Rumble——
Above the clouds, thunder suddenly rolled, and strong winds roared.
The dean left.
The sky in Qingyang has collapsed!
