Shengkang City.
At three o'clock in the morning, two horses came out of Dongsheng Gate and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Lu Shaoze left the capital this time without entering the palace to report the matter. He only wrote a hurried memorial and handed it over, then took it with him and escaped.
He had already made plans before even setting off.
My father is keeping an eye on the tea thing, and with what I wrote on the booklet, there won't be any problems.
And he just took advantage of the opportunity of this martial arts conference to travel around and appreciate this vast world!
After all, reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. If you don’t enjoy it for half a year, wouldn’t it be a waste of time?
Anyway, Lu has no plans to return to Beijing before the wedding day!
"Drive~"
The horse was moving quickly, but two figures, one black and one white, stood out on the horse's back.
Fuji, who was wearing a black outfit, looked at the empty backs of the two of them and was almost crying!
"Master, why are you leaving in such a hurry? I haven't even had time to prepare any money or luggage."
"Those who are away from home should call you Young Master!"
Lu Shaoze corrected him and then continued:
"This is called Qiongyou, you just learn to drive slowly~"
In fact, he had no money on him. Even the three hundred taels he received from Tian Yuanwai were kept at home and used as money to buy tea.
But Lu Shaoze didn't panic at all.
There is a great master next to you, so you will always meet some ignorant martial arts people along the way, right?
Even if there aren’t those who don’t have good eyesight, there must be those who don’t like it, right?
I'll give him a good beating when the time comes. Are you still short of money?
That is to say, this place is close to Kyoto and there are no bandits. Otherwise, someone from Lu would have to go up and kill him!
"Sir, I still don't understand. What is Qingyou?"
"Traveling on a poverty-stricken road is just like you and I are now impoverished, with no food or water. Along the way, we can only steal food and drink from others, and stay in other people's houses. Do you understand?"
"I understand, sir. Thank you for clarifying my doubts, sir."
"Haha, I'm kidding~"
"..."
The two of them chatted and laughed all the way east, and soon left the capital.
…
Huangzhou is located due east of the capital, not too far away, but not close either!
It won't arrive in six or seven days.
However, there is still nearly half a month until March 3rd, so there is no rush.
Riding your horse and whipping your whip, smelling the unique fragrance of spring earth, and watching the busy farming figures in the surrounding fields, it is also very interesting.
As time passed, the two of them passed many small villages and met many people along the way, but they did not stop.
It wasn't until the sunset and dusk that the pace slowed down.
It wasn't that Lu Shaoze wanted to stop, but a patch of bald heads appeared in front of him.
The setting sun is in the sky, shining on my shiny head, and it's so reflective?
When they heard the sound of horse hooves, the group of walking monks did not look back and just walked on as they were doing.
But at this moment, Lu Shaoze spotted a rather familiar figure in the crowd!
"Huh? This old bald donkey actually went down the mountain? Looking in this direction, could he be going to a martial arts conference?"
Shaking his head, Lu Shaoze immediately raised the corners of his mouth and leaned over.
When he got close, he got off his horse and said hello casually:
"Master, long time no see!"
The leading monk was none other than Monk Liaojie, who had been told at Fengshan Temple that someone like him had a red thread between his eyebrows and was about to have good luck.
He is also a master who has just entered the Grandmaster realm!
"Amitabha, it turns out that he is the benefactor, and the poor monk is now polite."
As a master, Liao Jie couldn't hide anyone approaching him.
But what he didn't expect was that the person coming would be Lu Shaoze?
He knew very well who Lu Shaoze was.
Even if Ling Jie is not a flatterer, Fengshan Temple is still living in the capital city, so he still has to give him the face he deserves.
Just like the second prince who entered the temple last time and blocked the pilgrims from going up the mountain behind closed doors!
And Lu Shaoze was quite curious about this guy.
In the beginning, he had a preconceived idea of monks and regarded him as a liar.
But when he got down the mountain, he ran into Wen Shuyu, who was seriously injured.
Later, there was an engagement.
Obviously the monk in front of me still has two brushes!
Anyway, Huangzhou is a long way away and there is always time for leisure. Lu Shaoze doesn't mind chatting with him.
Thinking of this, Lu pointed at the group of young monks and asked:
"I wonder where Master, the one with the family, is going?"
"Wherever the benefactor goes, so will I."
"Oh? It turns out that people like the master will also participate in the martial arts conference? Doesn't Buddhism pay attention to the purity of the six roots and the absence of desires and demands?"
As soon as Lu Shaoze finished speaking, the beads in Liao Jie's hand tightened visibly.
But he still asked respectfully:
"Amitabha, what do you mean by Donor Lu's words?"
"Master, what do you think is Jianghu?"
Lu Shaoze didn't answer the question, but Luo Jie instantly guessed the meaning of his words.
The arena is a vanity fair, this is a nod to yourself!
"It's good, it's good. I have learned from the donor's warning today."
Liao Jie thanked him, turned around, and loudly ordered to the young monks behind him:
"The sea of suffering is boundless, but once you turn around, you will find another shore. All the disciples will follow me back to the mountains!"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Shaoze was stunned on the spot.
I was just joking when I had nothing to do, so why did this old monk take it seriously?
But this move undoubtedly made Lu Shaoze have a good impression of him.
This monk is a real monk!
He must not be allowed to leave, otherwise wouldn’t it be boring on the road?
Thinking of this, Lu Shaoze immediately stretched out his hand to hold the monk's robe and comforted him:
"Master, as the saying goes, if you don't know your original mind, studying the Dharma will be useless. If you know your original mind and see your true nature, why should you be afraid of fame and fortune?"
"The original nature of Bodhi is Bodhi. Donor Lu's Dharma is far better than that of Lao Na. Lao Na is ashamed."
At this moment, it was really the first time that I felt embarrassed!
Just two sentences are worth what he learned in a lifetime.
Ashamed!
After being embarrassed, Lu Shaoze was equally embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, my casual words almost deceived others into lameness?
Ridiculously true.
"Master, please don't take it seriously, Mr. Lu is just making nonsense."
"Donor Lu is too modest."
"Let's go, Master? You're already here, why don't you go to the martial arts conference?"
"It is better for a poor monk to be respectful than obey orders."
In this way, Liao Jie agreed to go with Lu Shaoze.
Little did he know that the training to subvert his Buddhist teachings had just begun!
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and Liao Jie and others originally planned to travel all night.
Otherwise, they won't be able to get to Huangzhou before the martial arts conference begins!
But under Lu Shaoze's strong request, he finally stopped in the woods beside the official road.
While Fuji was searching for prey, Lu, who had nothing to do, casually wandered next to the old monk.
"Master, can you tell me who is the initiator of this martial arts conference?"
If it wasn't for the purpose of inquiring about the martial arts conference, how could Lu Shaoze dismount and walk with these monks?
Isn’t that just looking for trouble for yourself? ?
