It was almost dawn when the Taoist strolled into Qinggang City.
In the past, Taoist priests could be seen everywhere in Qinggang City. Of course, if asked which Taoist temple they came from, they would often make up the name of a place, or talk about it in a casual way, and finally use their superb speaking skills to tell the questioner The gossip caused the Yintang to turn black, and soon there would be bloody disasters. In the final analysis, Luzhou is rich and prosperous, and Qinggang City is the leader in Luzhou, attracting countless fake monks and Taoists. It is expected that Taoism and Buddhism will spread widely among the people. Inside, you can take some money by looking at each other's ability to eliminate disasters.
Although the people in the city lord's palace were later interrogated and sorted out, and many false Taoist monks who raised the banner of Taoism and Buddhism were expelled from the city, it was inevitable that there were still fish that slipped through the net. When interrogating documents from Taoist temples and temples, there were often lies. Wealthy people believe this rhetoric so much that whenever they start a new business or a restaurant opens for the first time, they often go to those so-called monks who can calculate the timing of the heaven and earth, so that they can do some good feng shui things, so that they can feel at ease and get what they want. Based on the words of most people, it may not be true that knowing this vision can eliminate disasters, but at least it can make the mind a little more stable. Most of those monks and Taoists only collect scattered pieces of silver, and they can still make money. If they can find peace of mind, why bother? No.
After the Xumeng Mansion's troops entered the city in large numbers, these monks and Taoists who had always vowed that even if there was war and chaos, the monks' benevolence would not change and they would stay in Qinggang City, they did not stay in the city, only a few remained. A few scattered people are still struggling to survive in Qinggang City, not necessarily because they don't want to leave, but because they really can't.
After this Taoist with an ordinary figure entered the city, he did not walk around the streets like ordinary Taoists, or went to the city to wait in the city to trap people.
The senior who defrauded others of their money wanted to please him first so as not to be unable to set up a stall later. Instead, he went straight to Kuixing Tower and was stopped by the night watchman of Kuixing Tower as expected.
The Taoist was dressed very shabbily, wearing an old Taoist robe, with a dial hanging from his waist, a few six-line coins in one hand, and nothing else. Even compared to the monks and Taoists in the city, he didn't even have hexagram flags or flags. If he didn't, he went straight to the door and was stopped by others. It was reasonable. He couldn't blame others for looking down upon him. The Taoist priest in Qinggang City who had the best fortune-telling business saved up his money for several months and didn't dare to look at Kuixing Tower. Two glances, let alone stepping into the building, and this Taoist came straight to the door. This was unusual, so of course he had to be questioned. The Taoist was not angry, he just said that he was not a member of the Taoist sect. He came here to look for his nephew. He talked about his nephew's appearance with the building guard regardless of the details, and pointed out that he was that young man. A sword that often carries a water-fire sword.
The people guarding the building didn't need to think carefully, and they felt that the man in front of them was talking nonsense. The man on the top of the building was a swordsman with a great reputation in Qinggang City recently. I am afraid that except for ordinary people who don't know the secrets of the war, everyone knows the truth. There is such a swordsman in the royal court. Not only his realm is unpredictable, but also in the battle at Wufeng Mountain. If this swordsman wants to be the clan leader in the future, He Han will be in a hurry to agree to it. He must at least keep this person. So No one is willing to believe that a young talent whose reputation and abilities are all at the top of the mountain have such an extremely shabby-looking uncle.
But after all, he is a member of Kuixing Tower. He has seen the world and suffered hardships, and he also knows the word "safety". Such behavior as beating someone out of the house without even noticing the incompetence of others is definitely unacceptable.
Do it, if this seemingly shabby Taoist really has a close friendship with the swordsman and offends him a little, he may not be able to escape the bitter consequences in the future, so he invites the Taoist into an empty restaurant, pours tea for the Taoist and sits down , and then asked tentatively. It is said that this young hero Yun sent money to wrap up the roof of Kuixing Tower yesterday. He counted the time and found that he should have left today. He saw that it was not far from dawn and was about to open the door to welcome guests. If the Taoist priest came to look for someone, he might as well go up to the building and ask. , Can Shaoxia Yun still want to meet friends today?
If the Taoist has an ulterior motive, he should be aware of what he is saying and leave as soon as possible. If the Taoist really has some friendship with this Yun Shaoxia, he must resolve the matter. It is estimated that anyone who comes here will be able to hear it. There is something in the words of the building guard, and it is natural to retreat when faced with difficulties.
But the Taoist drank three sips of tea and climbed the stairs steadily.
Before entering the attic, the Taoist slowed down, probably planning to bring some rare items with him since he had not seen Yun Zhong for a long time. Unfortunately, he fumbled in his arms and sleeves for a long time. Finally, he patted his forehead and felt annoyed, but he still pushed the door open and entered.
It was quiet outside the door, but there was a continuous sound of swords whistling inside. When the Taoist pushed the door open and turned around to close the door again, it was still quiet outside, but the sound of swords whistling suddenly increased in the room.
There are wine jars all over the room. The swordsman who put one foot on the table is holding the jar with his left hand and two fingers of his right hand. He is staring at a solitary long candle on the table. The sword fingers of his right hand are shaking back and forth, so the sword on the long candle is A candle flame kept swaying with two fingers, the candle flame wavered, and the sword whistled around the roof beams. Thanks to the Taoist's sharp eyesight, he stepped into the house and saw the long candle. Next to the long candle lay the sword that looked like water and fire. The candlelight illuminated the sword, and the sword reflected the candlelight like a mirror.
So several wisps of sword energy were going back and forth in the room without restraint.
But it was clear that the swordsman who was sitting in front of the table drinking wine knew that someone was coming in, and his sword energy did not stop. Instead, he gathered a few steps away from the Taoist, blocking the Taoist from walking on the path he had to take. The swordsman looked extremely calm.
The Taoist smiled slightly and disappeared in an instant. When he reappeared, he was sitting opposite Yun Zhong.
"Have you forgotten that your second senior brother is the best at escaping? He has been forced to learn some skills over the past few years. If he can show off his skills, he is still very good at escaping. You kid, don't test your senior brother."
Yun Zhong sheathed his sword, as if he had expected that his senior brother would not be idle in the military camp and would definitely follow him. However, he remained calm and calm. He just blew out the candle, put the sword around his waist, and raised his head. After taking a look at this senior brother I hadn't seen for a long time, I was a little speechless for a moment. Qian Yin has never been seen since his disciples came down from Nangong Mountain. It often takes several months before he receives a letter from the mountain, which is full of complaints. Yun Zhong and Wu Shuang once read the letter together. , obviously I can see the lazy temperament of the second senior brother. When I went to that Taoist temple this time, I really received a lesson from others. If you don't work hard when you are learning a skill, you will have to suffer from skin and flesh and starve for three days. Days have become commonplace, and for Qian Yin, who is already fat and fat, and especially loves delicacies, it would be better to receive two more beatings.
But the pain was not in vain. Qian Yin, who was nearly the same height two or three years ago, now wore a Taoist robe and became much thinner. He really still had the air of an immortal, even if he was desperate, he was in Qinggang City. Setting up a hexagram stall might also lead to prosperity.
Since Qian Yin
After sitting down, Qian Yin kept talking. He hadn't seen his junior brother for several years, and Qian Yin almost said dozens of greetings and greetings in an instant. Before Yun Zhong could speak, the next sentence came right after him. He asked Yun Zhong these questions. Has the swordsmanship been put aside during the years? I asked my junior brother if he had any breakthroughs recently. I heard that the damage to the Dantian was healed after the Xu Dan was destroyed. At first I felt that my junior brother was very good at pleasing women. I wonder if he had ever become a Taoist companion with Miss Wen. I asked the young man to travel around the country. Over the years, where have I been and what kind of food have I seen? Have I put aside the skill of roasting rabbit? If I have not put it aside, I will definitely try it again in the future. I will eat vegetarian food all day long in the Taoist temple and no matter how full I am, I will think about this bite all day long. .
"The skill of roasting fish and rabbit has been put aside for a long time. I have completely forgotten about it. I'm afraid I will owe my senior brother." It wasn't until Qian Yin's mouth went dry when he spoke that the swordsman in front of the case took over and smiled at the second senior brother. , ignoring the latter's stunned expression, drank all the wine in the jar and put the empty jar aside, "This time I went down the mountain and forgot a lot of things. Madman Tang came to visit yesterday and invited him to go to Kuixing Tower to drink and compete. As for swordsmanship and sword moves, Madman Tang directly said that I would give him the move, which was very hypocritical. But I am the only one who knows that, no matter the few moves my master taught me or the surprising sword moves in Liushui Sword Manual, they are all I have forgotten everything and only have some common sword moves left, so I can barely call myself a swordsman."
"Junior brother can still remember many of the things that senior brother asked today. However, every time I think about it, it feels like it was a lifetime ago. I am not even sure that I have seen or done it. It is nothing more than an old piece of paper that has been left for hundreds of years, with peeling skin and yellow vines. There are only a few old things left that I can see clearly
. "
Qian Yin was lost for a moment and his brows furrowed involuntarily.
However, Yun Zhong, who had a smile on his face, turned a blind eye and continued to speak slowly, "It's embarrassing to ask how well you have done many things. After coming down from the mountain, you have achieved nothing in the world. Miss Wen has a great talent, so of course it is not easy to force her to stay. , it’s a pity that my obsession was too deep at the beginning, so I had no choice but to chase Dayuan to take action. It’s like I did something for him to make up for the debt temporarily. In any case, it’s a dove occupying a magpie’s nest, not to mention that those who are close to Zhu are red, and they may also suffer the same. That kid’s temperament dictates that he does things with a lot of pretentiousness and procrastination.”
"If you ask about the current level, the lowest level is just a level three that can be used as an entry level, and the highest level is probably slightly weaker than the fifth level."
Qian Yin's expression became gloomy again, he sat up straight and looked coldly at the junior brother in front of him.
"I advise senior brother, don't try to be brave." Yun Zhong suddenly squeezed out some ridiculous smile from his face, smiled and looked at Qian Yin, who was sitting upright and about to take action, "Below the Five Realms, he is no more than an ant, and he has been a great practitioner for generations. It’s not poor, but it’s the master and his ilk who faced the five realms who didn’t exert all their strength in the fourth realm. They also ended up in a desolate situation where they almost died. Senior brother came here to reminisce about the past, so I can naturally help him and have a good life with him. Speak freely, but don’t make mistakes.”
"The people in Nangong Mountain have never been gentlemen. They are all willing to stand under the dangerous wall to block the collapse of the dangerous wall for the people passing by. Although I don't agree with it, I still have some respect. Although it is foolish, I think it is It’s very interesting. But since I have to say it clearly today, it doesn’t matter if I tell my senior brother. Most people think that it’s me who occupies the magpie’s nest and your little junior brother’s self. But in fact, it’s Yun Zhong who gave in on his own, allowing me to take advantage of him. Opportunity."
"People of the world
Bustling, the affairs of the world are incalculable, and the passes are dangerous and difficult. It is never shameful to hide from the world for the time being. The reason why I say that it is cowardly and shameful is because you have never experienced such pain and torment. "
