Here, Jia Mu and everyone went upstairs. Mother Jia sat on the front floor, Sister Feng and others occupied the east floor, and the girls waited in the west floor, taking turns to serve.
Jia Cong led Taoist Zhang to the upstairs here. When he came to Jia Mu, he said, "Old lady, Grandpa Zhang has come in to say hello." After hearing this, Jia Mu hurriedly said, "Hurry up and help me." The Taoist priest laughed first and said, "Infinite Life Buddha! Our ancestors have always been blessed with longevity. Kangning? Thank you to all the grandmothers and ladies! I haven't come to the house to say hello, and the old lady looks better and better." Mother Jia smiled and said: "Old god, how are you?" Taoist Zhang said with a smile: "Wish the old lady long life, may I wish you a happy life. Still healthy. Apart from anything else, I just think about my brother. Are you always in good health? The day before yesterday, April 26, I held a Christmas celebration for King Zhe Tian. There were few people here and the things were very clean. I said to invite you, brother. Come for a walk, why do you say you're not at home?" Mother Jia smiled and said, "I'm really not at home. Now I go to the Imperial College to study. I only come home once every half month, and I didn't come with you this time." Taoist Zhang said, "Brother, I know I have made progress. , which is also a good thing. I have some old friends here. I wanted to borrow the treasure to have a look at it, but it seems that I will disappoint them." Jia Cong next to him glanced at Taoist Zhang and remembered that there was indeed a "borrowing jade" in the original work. out.
These old Taoist priests who have practiced for many years are also very interested in this legendary accompanying treasure.
They are all half-convinced and want to verify the authenticity for themselves to see if it is really that magical and if it is a real treasure.
It is unknown whether there is any royal intention or a temptation in this. After all, being born with jade is also auspicious, and the royal family is very sensitive to these things.
After saying a few more words, Taoist Zhang exited knowingly. Next, I picked up the play items in front of the God, then went outside to prepare the application forms, burn money and food, and then the play started.
Jia's mother and other girls were watching a play upstairs, and Jia Cong quietly left. When I arrived at Taoist Zhang's residence, I saw six or seven old Taoist priests gathered around drinking tea and chatting. When I saw Jia Cong coming, I stood up to greet him.
Zhang Taoist said: "The Duke is here to see you, is there something wrong?" Jia Cong shook his head and said: "Nothing, come and talk to Grandpa Zhang. Grandpa Zhang is my elder, just call me by my name." He looked again. Other old Taoist priests said: "You Taoists, you are all senior masters with profound Taoist teachings. Don't be too polite. Please sit down." No one knew the purpose of Jia Cong's visit and didn't know what to say for a moment. After sitting down, they all No sound was made.
When Taoist Zhang heard what Jia Cong said, he felt that it was quite honorable, but he did not dare to make excuses in front of Jia Cong. After all, he had heard of Jia Cong's reputation.
Zhang Taoist smiled and said: "Oh, if the poor Taoist can solve the problem, of course I have no obligation to refuse. Sit down and let's chat slowly." Jia Cong nodded, sat down on the side, and then said: "This junior studied under Zhang Moyan of the Wudang Sect. I can barely be regarded as a Taoist disciple. In recent years, I have also studied a lot of Taoist classics and some rare ancient books. I am very interested in the ancient Qi training techniques mentioned in it, as well as the theory of magical weapons. Dear Taoist priests, I am all Taoist. Senior and knowledgeable senior experts, I wonder if they can help me clarify my doubts? Do these things really exist? Do they really work?"
"This..." When several people heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. Then the eyes he looked at Jia Cong couldn't help but feel a little more fiery.
Unexpectedly, Ning Guogong, at such a young age, began to hope for the art of immortality. I just don’t know if it’s to the point of obsession. Is it okay to do it?
This is a very rich man. Some people began to think about Jia Cong, thinking that Jia Cong was so young and his knowledge must be very shallow. If he cheated casually, he would definitely lose his way. By then, he and others would just say whatever he said.
An old Taoist priest said: "There are naturally qi-training techniques, and they are inherited in every sect. However, with the exhaustion of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the evolution from generation to generation, it has become the current breathing technique. Like. Wu Qin Xi, Liu Zi Jue, etc. have been passed down for a long time. They are for the purpose of maintaining health and fitness. Immortality is not possible, but it is possible to prolong life. As for magical weapons, there are also them, but they are very difficult to use. "Another person said: "If you want to prolong your life and live forever, it is not impossible. You need to cultivate both internally and externally. Not only do you need to meditate and practice the art of breathing and exhalation, but you also need to supplement it with elixirs. The best effect is achieved. As long as you refine it. With the golden elixir and taking it together, it is possible to become an immortal through cultivation." Jia Cong looked this man up and down, looking at him with an air of immortality, as if he was an expert from this world.
With this appearance, coupled with the words just now, it is estimated that many people will believe it. Jia Cong sneered in his heart, and directly rejected the guy's theory of refining golden elixirs. Jia Cong has specially studied this alchemy technique, and his understanding of it is not much worse than these people. How could he believe it? What's his nonsense?
If you want to talk to them and get something valuable, you can only deal with them in vain. Jia Cong said calmly: "Forget about refining and swallowing the golden elixir. I have also learned about the current alchemy technique, and there is not much merit. On the contrary, people who swallow the golden elixir and are poisoned will die." There are quite a few. My master died after swallowing golden elixirs." The old Taoist priest said: "What the Duke said is true. Most people's alchemy inheritance is incomplete, and the elixir recipes they use are also very limited. Big flaws and differences. If you want to refine a real golden elixir, you need all kinds of precious materials and treasures from heaven and earth. Although you are experienced and talented, the alchemy skills you have learned are top-notch. There is also a real golden elixir formula. Mr. Guo If necessary, the old Taoist can serve the Duke." Jia Cong smiled and said: "The Taoist is really a hermit master with immortal style. He even has the real golden elixir formula, which is really enviable to the younger generation, but I'm still young and don't need these for the time being. When I get older, if the Taoist Master is still alive at that time, I can believe that this golden elixir is real. The Taoist Master will refine the real golden elixir. I believe that I will live for dozens more There should be no problem in Nian, right?" The old Taoist priest said: "Of course there is no problem." However, he secretly cursed the little fox in his heart. It seems that it is not easy to fool this kid.
Taoist Zhang said: "Ning Guogong is interested in Taoism. If you have time, you can come and chat with the old Taoist. The old Taoist has been practicing Taoism for decades and has a certain understanding of Taoism. According to the old Taoist, since After the Qin and Han Dynasties, the vitality of heaven and earth became increasingly scarce, and it was difficult to successfully practice various Taoist methods. They gradually evolved into techniques for strengthening the body. Some special magic weapons also became decorations because they could not be activated. However, this There are still some secret treasures in the world that have certain special effects and have the function of magic weapons. They can have certain magical effects without the need for activation, but they are too rare and are rarely seen by ordinary people." After hearing what Zhang Laodao said, Jia Cong thought of the lame Taoist priest's fengyue treasure mirror, which might be in a similar situation.
There is a certain truth to what Zhang Zhang said, and it is somewhat similar to his own analysis. When I have time in the future, I can come and chat with him more often.
After all, he is over eighty years old and has practiced Taoism all his life, so he still has some knowledge. Moreover, he is also in charge of the Daolu Department, and the entire Taoist cultivator is under his jurisdiction, so there is still a lot of news.
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Grandpa Zhang's knowledge is indeed extraordinary. I have let the younger generation learn from it. I will definitely come back to bother you when I have time. I hope you will give me some advice when the time comes." Taoist Zhang chuckled and said: "Easy to say, easy to say."· ·····Jia Cong returned upstairs and just sat there for a while.
Someone came in and sent a message: "Someone from General Feng's family is here." It turned out that Feng Ziying's house heard that Jia's family was having a ritual ceremony in the temple, so they quickly prepared pigs, sheep, incense, candles, tea, silver and other things to send.
Sister Feng heard this and hurried across the main building, clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Oh, I'm not guarding against this. I just said that we ladies are here to hang out, and they only think that we are the ones who set up the altar to give gifts. It's all the old ladies who are making trouble. Yes, we have to prepare a reward for this." Just as he said this, two housekeepers from the Feng family came upstairs.
The two members of the Feng family did not leave, and then Zhao Shilang also came politely. So one after another, people heard that Jia's family was holding a ritual ceremony, and all the women were in the temple, and all the friends and relatives from far and wide came to give gifts.
Only then did Jia Mu regret it and said, "It's not a serious fasting thing. We were just strolling around. I didn't expect that this ceremony didn't alarm anyone." After watching the show and having dinner, he took everyone back in the afternoon. .
On the second day, Jia Mu simply refused to come, and the others also stayed at home because they felt it was too noisy. Sister Feng said with a smile: "Building a wall is also breaking ground. It has alarmed people. I am so happy to go shopping today. My ancestors are not going and I have more leisure. Brother Cong, we are the first to do this. You can't be lazy and not go. Anyway, this You have been with me for three days." Jia Cong said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, brother, I can't give up on this matter halfway, I must start it and finish it right. Others, if you want to go, just follow, if you don't want to go, just stay at home. Right." Tan Chun looked at Wang Xifeng, then at Jia Cong, and curled his lips involuntarily.
I thought to myself: "The uncle and sister-in-law won't take this opportunity to have an affair, right?" I wanted to follow him, but when I saw that the sisters didn't want to go, I gave up the idea and stayed at home.
Mother Jia and the sisters did not go, so the maids and women naturally stayed at home, and the number of people suddenly decreased several times.
Except for some peers and juniors in the clan who followed Jia Cong to help, there was only one female Juan, Wang Xifeng, who accompanied her with her maid and mother-in-law.
Ping'an Jiao, also known as Qing'an Qing Jiao, is the most popular type of Jiao. Its purpose is to thank the gods for their protection and pray for peace in the realm.
When we came to Qingxu Temple again, after completing the ceremony, all that was left was to watch games and play. Jia Cong was not very interested in these plays, so he wanted to talk to Taoist Zhang.
Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Sister Feng.
"Brother Cong, come over and watch the theater with your sister-in-law. It's much quieter today. You don't have to wait on others." Jia Cong said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, let your second brother watch the show with you. I'll go out for a walk." Wang Xifeng curled her lips and said: " That damn second brother of yours has taken people away a long time ago, and now he’s gone to live happily ever after. He hasn’t come here yet. It’s only been a few days since he got married, and he’s starting to dislike his sister-in-law.” After saying that, he half-smiled but didn’t smile. Looking at Jia Cong, the meaning is self-evident.
Hearing what she said, Jia Cong was startled. This girl really didn't pay attention at all and was not afraid of being overheard.
Jia Cong took a look around. Fortunately, he and Wang Xifeng were the only ones left in the main building. The others were in the east and west buildings.
After thinking for a moment, he walked over and sat next to Wang Xifeng. He said with an apologetic smile: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? In my eyes, you are like a fairy concubine. You can't be rarer than rare. How can my brother dislike you? It's just that there are many people here, and if you are... It's bad if you see the clues." Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "Even if you can talk, are you too timid? This is not like a general who is galloping on the battlefield and killing decisively. Even if he is discovered, No one can do anything to defeat you." Jia Cong smiled bitterly and said, "How can it be the same? They are all enemies on the battlefield. Just kill them directly. You don't need to consider other things. You can't just kill your family members, right?" Wang Xifeng said: "Don't worry. Well, I have always been carefree and informal. You have been clean and well-known since childhood. Even if we are close, few people will think much about it. On the contrary, if you avoid suspicion everywhere, it will make people worry. In those two buildings, go to You can't see anything from this side, and even if we do something, they won't be able to find it." Jia Cong looked into the east and west buildings. Although his vision was a bit blurry, he could still see something.
And those singers on the stage are not dead. However, if you go behind the screen, no one will see you.
Before Jia Cong could say anything, Wang Xifeng leaned over, and a refreshing fragrance rushed to his face. Jia Cong couldn't help but take a deep breath, and there was a trace of ripples in his heart.
Wang Xifeng held Jia Cong's arm and said softly: "Brother Cong, are you leaving Beijing the day after tomorrow? How long will it take to come back?" Jia Cong nodded and said: "Well, unless there are special circumstances, you will be leaving the day after tomorrow. It’s time to leave Beijing. This is a rare trip. I will stay for at least three to five months. It won’t be fast enough to take them out together.” Wang Xifeng said: “Then you can come and stay with me for a day tomorrow. My sister-in-law is used to it. I have been with you for so long, and now that you have left suddenly, I don’t know what to do.” Jia Cong smiled and said, “My second brother is at home, how can I still starve you?” Wang Xifeng spat. : "Bah, you little bastard, you still have the nerve to say that you have spoiled your appetite all this time and you can't eat anything else." Jia Cong heard this and smiled, this girl is quite interesting.
Feeling the softness on my arm, I couldn't help but rub it gently.
"Since my sister-in-law said so, I will work hard, brother. I will try my best to feed you in the past two days and let you eat for a month, lest I am not at home and starve you again." Wang Xifeng trembled when she noticed the strangeness in her body, and looked at Jia Cong with eyes full of passion.
He stood up and pulled Jia Cong up and said: "This is what you said, you can't go back on it. Let's go behind the screen. Don't worry, I have asked Feng'er to guard the door. No one will disturb us." Jia Cong After swallowing, since the beauty was already prepared, he would no longer be pretentious.
Following Wang Xifeng to the back of the screen, there was actually a small bed placed inside. This was really well prepared.
Wang Xifeng suddenly turned around, hugged Jia Cong and started kissing her...
