After the Rebellion of the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons, Saibei regained its former peace, and the people who had been brutally harmed before were all freed.
Millions of people who survived the disaster cried with joy. As the news spread, they also learned that they had been rescued by Zhang Xiu.
In order to express gratitude for Zhang Xiu's meritorious deeds, the people spontaneously built temples and monuments for him, making his reputation as the most holy teacher spread far and wide.
While Zhang Xiu solved the rebellion in Saibei, the newly established Zhou Dynasty also gradually stabilized. The new court reshaped the laws, replaced officials from various places, and established a more concise and effective official evaluation system.
The officials governed the Qingming Dynasty, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the people's strength was flourishing. The people all praised the new court's policy of being tolerant and caring for the people.
Time flies by.
Fifty years later, Zhao Ji returned to his hometown of Huainan after retiring as Minister of the Ministry of War. Looking at the scene of flowers blooming on both sides of the street and the cheering people on both sides of the street, he sighed in his heart and was very glad that he listened to Zhang Xiu's advice. , continued to serve as an official in the new court.
It's a pity that Zhang Xiu, the founder of this prosperous age, has disappeared long ago. He has been searching for many years but has not found any news about Zhang Xiu.
As he thought about it, the picture in his mind returned to the scene when he first met Zhang Xiu.
"You can't bear to see a person alive when you see him alive, and you can't bear to eat his flesh when you hear his voice. This is the way of a gentleman."
"Is this why you sneaked fleas into my clothes?"
"Originally, I wanted to release you here, but you have hands and feet. I'm afraid you might come back without knowing what's going on, right?"
"Brother Zhao, I have a copy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" here, which is very suitable for your grandson... Well, even if you don't use it, you can pass it on to your grandson. Today, I will sell it to you for only two hundred taels of silver!"
"Brother Zhao...Brother Zhao..."
Recalling every detail of getting along with Zhang Xiu, Zhao Ji became angrier as he thought about it. He couldn't help but let out a sigh, and then sat in the sedan chair given by the emperor and carried by thirty-two people, and burst out laughing.
Stroking his gray beard, he suddenly noticed a person standing on the bridge in the distance, holding a handsome boy in his right hand and looking at him with a kind face.
The moment their eyes met, the scene in his mind became clearer.
This moment is just like that moment.
The impression of Zhang Xiu gradually overlapped with the man on the bridge, making Zhao Ji unable to help but be stunned.
At this time, the servant next to him saw his master's appearance and couldn't help but ask: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Ji came back to his senses, rubbed his eyes, and sighed: "It's too confusing. If he were still alive, he would have turned into a bad old man like me. How could he still be so young..."
After that, Zhao Ji seemed to have lost his soul, and leaned towards the pillow behind him with a tired look on his face, murmuring to himself: "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, I hope this prosperous age goes as you wish..."
On the bridge, the little boy pulled Zhang Xiu's sleeve and asked quietly: "Master, what are you looking at? Do you know this high official just now?"
Zhang Xiu smiled and nodded: "Well, his name is Zhao Ji, and he and I were close friends of life and death back then!"
The little boy's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to ask: "Then when are we going to have a feast?"
Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "Probably because he couldn't afford it. When I was a teacher... I almost killed him!"
The little boy's eyes suddenly widened: "@#￥%#@..."
It turned out to be such a life-and-death acquaintance!
It should be too late for him to betray his master now, right? !
The little boy's surname is Zhang Mingfei, whose nickname is Yimou and his nickname is Ah Fei. He is an orphan picked up by Zhang Xiu a few years ago.
Fifty years ago, Zhang Xiu got rid of the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons and gained a life span of one million years, as well as some miscellaneous experience. He also obtained the fragmentary copy of "The Great Law of Disintegration of Heavenly Demons" from Master Taixuan.
Zhang Xiu, who originally wanted to devote himself to spiritual practice, had no choice but to be targeted by Yue Lao. During the holidays, Yue Lao would come to visit enthusiastically and ask by the way: "Zhang Xiu, when are you going to die?"
Zhang Xiu was a little annoyed, so he took Xia'er to travel around. In fifty years, he had visited half of the world's rivers and mountains.
This time when he came to Jiangnan, it happened that Zhao Ji retired from old age and returned to his hometown. Knowing that his life was approaching, Zhang Xiu came here specially to see him one last time.
Watching Zhao Ji's sedan disappear at the end of the long street, Zhang Xiu turned around and looked at Ah Fei beside him with a serious face: "A Fei, it's getting late. Go to the pier to carry the sacks. We have to go to the tavern later. Wash the dishes for an hour, then break rocks on your chest and beg on the street.
If you don't work hard, when will we get enough money to meet your wife in Jinhua? "
hooligan:"……"
Master, just be a human being. If you skip a few Overlord meals, why should I be so miserable? ?
Under Zhang Xiu's encouraging eyes, Ah Fei rolled his eyes, hummed with a depressed look on his face, and walked towards the dock.
Zhang Xiu smiled slightly, thinking that his disciple was still too naive and needed to continue to be beaten by society. Then he used the magic of flying in the clouds and flying in the mist, and came to the sky above Jinhua Mansion.
Passing by Beiguo in Jinhua County, a dilapidated temple caught Zhang Xiu's sight.
Looking at the crooked plaque at the entrance of the temple, Zhang Xiu paused slightly and unconsciously fell from the clouds to the ground.
"Lanruo Temple?"
Looking at the overgrown temple door in front of him, Zhang Xiu was in a trance for a while. He looked around and saw the statue of the guardian statue inside the door that looked exactly like Yan Feng. He couldn't help but smile.
If I remember correctly, the statue of Buddha enshrined in this temple seems to be cast in his likeness!
After smiling, Zhang Xiu walked into Lanruo Temple with great interest.
When we came to the temple, we saw the magnificent central hall and tower, but the basil grew taller than people. It seemed that no one had been there for a long time.
The doors of the monks' dormitories on the east and west sides were all ajar, except for a small house on the south side. The door lock seemed to be new, and an oil lamp was still burning in the house.
Looking at the east corner of the hall, there are thick clumps of bamboo growing in clusters. There is a large pool under the steps, which is full of lotus flowers.
After Zhang Xiu finished looking around, he stepped into the lighted room. When he opened the door, he saw a pretty woman sitting in the room.
When the woman saw Zhang Xiu coming, she screamed "Yeah" in fright, huddled up on the bed, and said with fear on her face: "Are you sent by Zhou Yuanwai to arrest me?"
Zhang Xiu was stunned for a moment, glanced at the woman in front of him, showed a ferocious expression, slowly took out the butcher knife, and said with a sneer: "That's right, quickly hand over the valuable things on your body, and then Tied up yourself, come with me back to see Yuan Wai Zhou!"
The woman looked at Zhang Xiu with a ferocious expression, and her expression became dull: "..."
What's going on?
Shouldn't you first ask me who Zhou Yuanwai is, and then listen to my miserable experience, and finally be seduced by my beauty, and have my yang energy sucked dry by me when you are obsessed with sex?
What you are saying has a nose and eyes. If there was no such person as Zhou Yuanwai, I would have almost believed it!
