Lingqing left the temple and arrived in front of a manor after a while.
This is the home of Baozheng Chao Gai in Dongxi Village.
He patted the door, and soon a banker came out to answer the door and saw Ling Qing dressed in a Taoist costume.
He raised his hands and asked, "Sir, do you want to make some fasting food?"
"I am a poor Taoist whose dharma name is Daoqing. I have heard of Baozheng's name. I would like to see him now." Ling Qing said with a sign of humiliation.
"Sir, please forgive me, but it is unfortunate that my family Baozheng is inviting Wu Xuexue to have a drink.
Why don't you and your husband get some fasting food? It won't be too late for your husband to come visit you when you have more time in the future. "
After the banker finished speaking, without waiting for Lingqing to answer, he turned around and ordered the people on the side: "Go and get three to five buckets of rice and bring it to your husband."
"Wait a minute." Lingqing stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "I would like to ask, layman. If there is really no time to protect the integrity, I will not bother you too much."
"Forget it, I'll ask sir." Zhuang Ke saw Ling Qing's expression and knew that he was not a liar, so he invited him to the concierge and went to Chao Gai.
When I came to the back hall, I saw my master having a banquet with a scholar with fine features and fair face and long beard.
After a pause, he quietly came behind Chao Gai and told him about Ling Qing.
"Didn't you see that I was drinking with my husband? You gave him three to five liters of rice yourself, why did you come to ask me directly?" Chao Gai said with a displeased expression.
The banker said: "The villain gave him the rice, but he didn't want it. He just wanted to see Baozheng."
Chao Gai said: "It must be too little, so you go back to him for three or two buckets of rice. Tell him, Baozheng is inviting people to have wine at the village today, and we don't have time to meet him."
"It's not that the villain doesn't like the lack of rice when he sees him, he just wants to see Baozheng." Zhuang Ke said, feeling that his words were a bit inappropriate, and added: "But since Baozheng doesn't see him, the villain will send him away. "
As he said that, he turned around and left.
"Wait a minute!" The scholar who had been silent for a long time suddenly stopped him and said with a smile: "Since that gentleman must meet Baozheng, Baozheng might as well meet him."
"Well, today we are entertaining Mr. Wu alone, how can we let others disturb us?" Chao Gai waved his hand to stop the scholar.
The man in front of him is Wu Yong, a man with many stars and wisdom. He and Chao Gai have known each other since childhood.
However, one is practicing essays, the other is practicing martial arts, one has passed the examination and became a scholar, and the other is now famous all over the world.
In the past few years, Wu Yong had been traveling for fame and was never at home.
Just a year ago, he suddenly came back and was invited by Chao Gai to teach in a private school in Dongxi Village.
Today is just after the Chinese New Year, and the private school is about to start, so Chao Gai wants to give him a solemn banquet.
Unexpectedly, just after eating for a while, someone came to disturb my temper.
"Xiaosheng and Baozheng have known each other since childhood, so there is no need for this. Since this gentleman came here to admire Baozheng's name, he must not ruin Baozheng's reputation because of Xiaosheng."
After saying that, he directly said to the banker: "Go and invite that gentleman over, and tell Baozheng that he is invited."
"Sir, this..." Chao Gai spread his hands and looked at Wu Yong helplessly.
"There is no need to do this to protect your integrity. It is better to have the banquet changed. Otherwise, it is not the way to treat guests." Wu Yong pointed to the scattered food and wine on the table and said with a smile.
"Forget it, just follow Mr. Chao Gai." Seeing what he said, Chao Gai said no more and ordered the guest to invite Ling Qing, and then asked someone to change the banquet.
After a while, the two saw the banker leading a group of people to the back hall.
"I have met Chao Baozheng, a poor Taoist." Ling Qing looked at the six-foot-five-six man in front of him, about thirty years old, with a flamboyant black beard, and knew in his heart that it was Chao Gai.
The white-faced and long-bearded scholar beside him should be Tianjixing.
Chao Gai was originally unhappy because Ling Qing disturbed the banquet between him and Wu Yong, but when he saw Ling Qing, his face was like a crown jade, and his eyes were like bright stars, he looked at twenty or so, and suddenly felt thirty or forty.
I just felt that his spirit was extraordinary, he could change according to his heart, and he was unpredictable. Chao Gai suddenly felt grateful for Wu Yong's move.
I thought to myself: 'It's because I don't know the real king. If it weren't for Mr. Wu, I almost missed the opportunity to make friends with this gentleman. '
Seeing Lingqing's courtesy, he also stood up and said, "Sir, you have come from afar. Please sit down quickly."
He left Ling Qing at the table and introduced Wu Yong. After the two had seen each other, he asked, "Where are you, sir?"
Ling Qing took a look at him and saw that there was no demonic energy in him, but instead there was a hint of golden light hidden in him.
However, when he opened his Dharma Eyes and wanted to take a closer look, he was hit by the golden light, causing him to close his Dharma Eyes unconsciously.
But with just this opportunity, he also saw the shadowy shadow of a pagoda in the golden light, and he suddenly understood.
He smiled and said: "Nothing else, just to see you and keep your ears straight.
Coincidentally, I also met Mr. Jialiang, who was rumored in the world, and it was a worthwhile trip. "
Chao Gai was a man of righteousness and wealth, and he liked to make friends with good men. There were rumors in the world for a long time.
When Wu Yong was studying in various places before, he also gained the reputation of Zhiduoxing.
Moreover, he was well-educated and well-known as a scholar, but he did not discriminate against idle men who wandered around the world.
He also has martial arts skills and can often fight with others, so he is well-known in the world.
Chao Gai laughed and said, "It's a great honor for both of us to meet you, sir, today.
Since we are destined, the two of us will invite you to drink this cup to the fullest. "
He raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.
Ling Qing and Wu Yong also raised their glasses and drank in one gulp.
During the dinner, the three of them talked more about the joys of the world and heroes from all over the world.
However, both Chao Gai and Wu Yong are famous, but Lingqing alone has no famous name.
Even though Zhu Wu and others from Shaohua Mountain and Zhang Qing and others from Shilipo knew Lingqing's name, after all, the time was too short and it had not spread to their ears.
The reputation of the fortune teller in Tokyo has spread.
But there was an eighty-year-old man with white hair and beard, and a young and healthy boy, but no one connected the two of them.
However, just looking at Ling Qing's graceful appearance, the two of them did not underestimate him, and respected him equally.
After a banquet, Chao Gai ordered people to remove the banquet, and instead took tea and snacks to sit in the courtyard.
When he saw Lingqing and Wu Yong talking about the Four Books and Five Classics, and hundreds of classics from all over the world, he was filled with admiration.
I originally thought that Mr. Wu was alive like Wen Quxing, but I didn’t expect that the Taoist who came to visit me today also had such knowledge. I couldn’t help but ask: “Sir, when you come to our village, do you know where the immortal abode is?
If you don't mind, how about staying in our village temporarily? "
"Pindao borrowed a place at the Lingguan Temple not far down the mountain, so he doesn't have to worry about keeping it straight." Ling Qing replied.
"Lingguan Temple? That temple has been in disrepair for a long time. How can people live there?" Chao Gai heard this and said quickly: "It is convenient for you, sir, to stay in our village. I can also ask you for advice from time to time."
"It doesn't have to be like this, Pindao has already taken care of it." Ling Qing declined politely.
He planned to travel around in these days to meet the nearby Gangsha Star Lord, but it was very inconvenient to live here in Chao Gai.
After talking for a while, Lingqing stood up and left. After meeting Chao Gai and finding out his details, he would have something to say in the future.
I'm not in a hurry today.
"It just so happened that the junior students also had to make some preparations for the start of school, so they also said goodbye to Baozheng." Seeing Ling Qing leaving, Wu Yong also stood up and said.
Chao Gai saw that he couldn't keep them, so he personally sent the two of them outside.
Lingqing and Wu Yong went in the same direction, one to Lingguan Temple and the other to private school, so they walked together.
After a while, they arrived at Lingguan Temple first. Wu Yong looked at the brand-new temple, smiled and asked Lingqing: "I wonder if Xiaosheng can go in and have a seat?"
