Looking down from the high-rise building, you can have a panoramic view of the Northland scenery, and the elegant taste of the teahouse is refreshing, but the sadness between Shangyangzi's brows is like a cloud that has never dissipated.
Shangyangzi's worries came from the person in front of them. At this moment, it seemed that it was not an exaggeration to say that the young man sitting next to him was the most outstanding among the new generation in the world.
"I have admired Taoist Master Yangzi for a long time. I have come all the way to bring you these teas. Is it possible that the Taoist Master is not willing to show his appreciation?" Lu Shiqi, the leader of the Beggar Clan, said with a smile.
Shangyangzi lowered his head and glanced at the filled teacup in front of him, pondered for a moment, picked it up, and drank it slowly.
After drinking a cup of hot tea, Shang Yangzi couldn't taste it. He frowned slightly and said, "Guangzhu Lu, this tea seems to have been a while. When I taste it, it tastes like pure water. Is this left over from the month before?"
"The Taoist priest really knows his stuff."
Lu Hanjiang laughed, picked up the tea in front of him, and poured it directly on the ground. Under Shang Yangzi's confused eyes, he said, "This is from last year's New Year."
"..."
The old Taoist priest's eyes were dull for a moment. He saw Lu Hanjiang put on new tea and brewed it for himself again. He spoke calmly, with no hint of joy or anger in his tone: "Gang Leader Lu came to see the old Taoist and brought a sip of last year's tea. The tea is really well-intentioned.”
"You're welcome, Taoist priest," Lu Hanjiang brewed a new cup of tea for himself and said with a smile, "Have you never heard of the saying that clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as old."
Shang Yangzi put down the empty tea cup and said calmly: "Pindao is a rare person, and there seems to be no old history to talk about with the leader of the Lu clan."
"That's true."
As Lu Hanjiang spoke, he made a new cup of tea for Shang Yangzi. He said, "I haven't had time to congratulate the Taoist priest yet. This time, you guys are in the limelight. The Xuantian Sect was defeated step by step, and Wudang ascended to the top of the world. , just around the corner.”
Shang Yangzi's eyes were blank, and his tone was calm: "Why did Gang Leader Lu say this? Everyone in the world knows it. We, the Wudang Sect, are tired of fighting in the rivers and lakes. After this trip to the north, we will return to the mountains and pick up the scriptures." , devote yourself to cultivating Taoism.”
"Wu Dang single-handedly summons all the heroes in the world, and even the Xuantian Sect can't match his sharpness. At this time when he is famous, why should the Taoist Master say such derogatory words?" Lu Hanjiang's tone sounded like a pity.
"Success and fame are like cooking oil. The Beggar Clan has learned from its past mistakes. Poor Taoists dare not risk the disapproval of the world." Shang Yangzi seemed to be mocking, and also seemed to be mocking himself.
Lu Hanjiang made a "tsk" sound, picked up the tea in the cup, smelled the fragrance of the tea, and said with unfinished meaning: "The Taoist Master's words are really rude. No matter what, this time the Xuantian Sect suffered a setback, Wudang took the greatest credit, and the Taoist Master's sword has not yet been released." Old man, why do you have to live in a corner?"
"Leader Lu, there is no need to persuade you any more. As monks and we, we practice martial arts to cultivate the Tao, and cultivating the Tao is to cultivate the mind. There are many winds and rains in the rivers and lakes, and it is not as quiet as the mountains." Shang Yangzi's tone was indifferent, as light as a feather, but there was something in his words. The meaning cannot be shaken.
"This is really a pity."
Lu Hanjiang drank the tea in the cup, stood up and came to the window sill, taking in the panoramic view of the scenery of Liaoyang City below. He looked at the mountains in the north and said without looking back: "However, in the world of rivers and lakes, people cannot help themselves. This Who can say that...well, I can’t remember clearly.”
Shang Yangzi sat in front of the tea eucalyptus, his eyes fell on the boiling kettle, and he heard Lu Hanjiang say pointedly: "But the truth is this, who in the world can be an exception? Does the Taoist think that Wudang can be different?" Ordinary?"
Shang Yangzi raised his gaze slightly, turned to look at Lu Hanjiang, and said in an indifferent tone: "The words of Gang Leader Lu seem to be a bit excessive."
"Oh? Is there anything wrong? I'll tell you the truth, isn't this the answer you want to hear?" Lu Hanjiang turned sideways and fell into the silent tea room, with only the gentle sound of the wind hitting the windowsill. .
Shang Yangzi took a deep look at Lu Hanjiang and was silent for a long time before saying: "Before meeting you, Pindao was still a little suspicious, but now that things have happened, Pindao cannot help but continue to be emotional... I dare to ask, Liang Is the gang leader safe?"
"In this case, Taoist Priest, why not ask it yourself in the future," Lu Hanjiang played with the dog-beating stick in his hand and said softly: "Taoist priests are already around this age, so maybe we can meet the old senior in a few years. "
The wind became more and more fierce, and the paper windows were blown against the outer walls of the high-rise buildings by the overbearing north wind. The sudden sound was like the sound of a bell ringing, making people's hearts suddenly feel heavy.
In the dead silence of the house, you could hear a pin drop. Shang Yangzi's old fingers rubbed the empty tea cup, and he said with a sigh: "It seems that you are no longer willing to hide."
Lu Hanjiang shrugged his shoulders and said meaninglessly: "It's not my fault. Originally, we all had our own ways of talking nonsense when we saw people talking. It's just that the wild Taoist priest appeared out of nowhere and made it impossible for me to continue. .”
Shang Yangzi was speechless. Lu Hanjiang shook his head and sat back in front of the tea eucalyptus. He quietly looked at Shang Yangzi and asked, "Who is that Taoist priest named Tai Wei?"
Before Taoist Taiwei went to rescue the Righteous Heroes, he first visited Shang Yangzi. No one knew what the two talked about. The only information Jin Yiwei received was that after Shang Yangzi saw the other party, he showed that he could not hide it at all. Stay surprised.
This is also the reason why Lu Hanjiang appears here.
Shang Yangzi did not answer, but instead asked: "He did not hesitate to use false information to lure Chang Qing and the others into a trap. What grudge does Gang Leader Lu have against me, Wudang?"
Lu Hanjiang raised his brows and said nonchalantly: "Taoist Priest's words are a bit unfair. The information from the Xuantian Sect General Forum is correct. Taoist Chang Qing and the others are not good at learning and have been tricked. How can they have the nerve to blame me in turn?" .”
Shang Yangzi looked at Lu Hanjiang with heavy eyes and said, "As the leader of the Beggar Clan, you have stirred up troubles in the world many times. What are your intentions?"
"Since the Taoist priest has guessed it, why bother asking questions knowingly?" Lu Hanjiang fiddled with the tea set on the eucalyptus and dismissed Shang Yangzi's words.
Shangyangzi sighed: "Sure enough, I should have already guessed that Liaoyang City is an important town in the north. If you are really an accomplice of the imperial court, how could you enter here so easily."
Taoist Taiwei's warning only gave another answer to Shang Yangzi's doubts, but Lu Hanjiang's active appearance today made this terrible guess a reality.
Beggars really have a problem.
Lu Hanjiang picked up the kettle and put out the tea-making fire. He said: "Let's just talk about the matter. Even if the Taoist doesn't remind you, if the vitality of Zhengdao is really seriously damaged this time, I'm afraid that with the wisdom of Taoist Chang Qing, sooner or later... You can also doubt me."
Shang Yangzi's tone turned slightly cold, and he said coldly: "You who deceived your master and destroyed your ancestors, there is no place for you in this world. Liang Benlang was a wise man, but he never thought that he would lose his sight in the end."
Lu Hanjiang chuckled: "The Taoist priest is wrong. I have never worshiped that old beggar as my teacher. The sin of deceiving my teacher and destroying my ancestors cannot be blamed on me."
Shang Yangzi stood up slowly and said: "You and I have nothing to say. One generation does the same thing. Although the Beggar Gang has ceased to exist in name only, the legacy of our ancestors will never let you be so shameless." If you are tainted by this generation, there will be knights from all over the world who will ask you about your guilt."
"Really?" Lu Hanjiang smiled slightly: "I don't think Taoist Chang Qing will accuse me. Maybe he will find a way to cover it up for me. After all, the sign of this Beggar Gang is extraordinary, and... You guys in Wudang haven't settled your own affairs yet, Taoist Priest, how do you think the feud between the sword demon and Wuyue should be settled?"
Shangyangzi's steps hesitated slightly, and when he turned around, his eyes were much colder.
Lu Hanjiang looked at him, not caring about the bone-chilling chill in his eyes. He smiled and scolded: "Hey, old Taoist priest, you are so angry that it is unreasonable. The dog you raised at home killed someone and ran away, why should you still do it? Do you blame me for exposing the truth to the world?"
