Tokyo City has tall walls, bustling commerce, and antiques, calligraphy and paintings for sale.
In the city of Bianjing, there was a lot of traffic. Children were playing on the road and bumped into an old man. Seeing this, Bai Meng subconsciously stepped forward to help him, but someone else helped him up first.
"Whose child is so naughty?" the man scolded.
The old man smiled and said: "It's okay, it's not a problem, it's just children's nature. It's great to be young. Old lady, I was also so playful when I was young."
When Bai Meng heard this, he felt filled with emotion...
After the destruction of Bianjing City, all this prosperity was like a passing cloud, gone forever. He stood on the Zhou Bridge, looked at the Bianhe River, and lamented the rise and fall of reincarnation. He didn't know what the future would be like. He couldn't help but play a flute tune, the music was mournful and gentle, and everyone looked at him. This was the dreamlike song he had played before.
Li Qingzhao and the sisters from Jinshishe were still looking at antiques. When they heard the sound of the flute, they couldn't help but look towards the bridge and saw a scholar in white, playing a sad melody.
When they were about to go over and take a look, they found that the man had gone away and the place was calm again.
Early the next morning, at the end of Ranyuan Bridge in Bailunlou, a Taoist priest set up a fortune-telling stall.
The Taoist priest looked older, with white eyebrows and a long white beard.
This is Bai Meng's disguise using spiritual power runes. No one can tell that it is fake, but the voice cannot be changed. But if you are here to tell fortunes, will you still care that his voice does not match your age?
In his opinion, this Baifan Restaurant is the largest and most expensive restaurant in Bianjing. It usually has distinguished guests, just like a bunch of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Bai Meng hangs a piece of cloth here, which reads: Bai Banxian knows everything about the future, marriage, wealth, and numerology, everything in the world.
People were coming and going on the road. When they saw this Taoist priest, most people couldn't tell that the white beard was fake. The disguise was too realistic.
But no one came to tell fortunes. Just like that, it was almost dark, but he still didn't earn a penny and lost a day's work.
Just when he was about to close the stall and leave, the ladies from the Jinshi Society happened to be going to the Bailunlou for dinner. The Bailunlou was very expensive, and even though there were many wealthy officials in the Jinshishe, they didn't come often. Such a cost would cost their father's salary. Can't support it.
Li Qingzhao was educated by Confucianism, but she also studied Taoism. Not only she, but even the Zhao Guan family also respected Taoism.
Li Qingzhao saw Bai Meng's arrogance and was still half-immortal? There is no one in heaven or on earth who does not know it.
She hated it the most in her life when people used the name of Taoism to cheat and smear Taoism's status in people's hearts. She immediately came to the stall.
"Sir, please help me tell my fortune." Li Qingzhao smiled coldly, looking at this beautiful embryo, like a fairy, Bai Meng couldn't help but fell into a trance.
Bai Meng came back to his senses and looked at the woman wearing a butterfly-playing narcissus skirt in front of him. As a practitioner, his intuition told him that this woman is not simple, isn't it?
Bai Meng didn't think any more and asked, "May I ask the girl her name? What is her birth date?"
"Li Qingzhao, it's the thirteenth day of the third month of the seventh year of Yuanfeng, Zishi." After Li Qingzhao finished speaking, he asked, "Sir, if you know this, you can't guess my birth date, right?"
Li Qingzhao was very smart. She could tell that this man's voice sounded very young, and his voice did not match his appearance. He was probably a charlatan, and his appearance was probably changed through some dirty tricks.
Li Qingzhao, dressed in a sky-blue butterfly-playing narcissus skirt, with his hair tied into hanging temples, a gold hairpin, and a slim figure.
She has a face as beautiful as natural white jade, with slightly raised eyebrows that are as curved as a rainbow, a pink-carved nose, a pair of bright eyes, full of confidence, and her lips are painted with the color of cinnabar, delicate and And elegant.
Her eyes flickered, revealing her natural agility, but at this moment, a closer look revealed that there was a bit of disdain.
From her eyes, Bai Meng saw that the other party had bad intentions. He made a quick guess and knew that the other party wanted to cause trouble for him and thought he was a liar.
Another one who considers himself a liar? Bai Meng chuckled softly: "Girl, what are you talking about? Please don't insult my professionalism. Didn't you see my sign? I am Bai Banxian. I know everything in the sky and in the world. These things are important to me." Say, it’s all just a trail... Well, what do you want a girl to do?"
Li Qingzhao watched him bragging quietly, as if he were watching a play. He thought to himself, I will expose your trick later, and I will see if you are embarrassed or not, and whether you are blushing or not.
Li Qingzhao said coldly: "You know everything, know everything, how come you don't know what I want to do? I think you are a big liar, and I have exposed you. Are you embarrassed? Are you embarrassed? Are you blushing? ?”
You actually look down on me? You still dare to slander yourself in front of so many people, and you have to tease her, so Bai Meng said jokingly: "Of course I know what Miss Li wants to do, and you want to settle the score with me, but I don't seem to have offended her. Are you a girl?"
Bai Meng smiled bitterly. After all, he was also the core disciple of the Qingwei Sect, the chief disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun who had not yet left the disciples. Today, he was actually looked down upon by a little girl. He was still the most talented woman in the history.
Is her vision still fake? Do you really look like a liar?
Li Qingzhao's face turned red. Is this bastard teasing him? He scolded: "You are here using the name of Taoist to deceive people and get money. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Bai Meng was not angry, but retorted with a smile: "Ms. Li, this is wrong. Let's be reasonable. You must have evidence for what you say. Which of your eyes can see that I'm cheating? Don't look down on me. It’s not something you can see in itself.”
"Well, let me see what you are capable of. I want to calculate my marriage." Li Qingzhao thought to himself, it depends on what he says, if he doesn't tell you the reason, he will look good.
Bai Meng was a little happy. The business finally came. He couldn't lose face and had to look good.
He immediately threw a few copper coins on the table, took out a bamboo stick, frowned, counted with his fingers, and became very dramatic.
"Ouch, it's incredible, it's incredible. The girl's marriage is really bizarre and unpredictable. If you force the calculation, my Taoist priest will lose his life. I only charge copper coins for others to tell fortunes, but you can't pay this price. Let's do it this way. First time we meet. , you and I are destined to be together, I will give you a cheaper price, just take ten strings from you, and if you lose your life, you will lose your life."
"You calculate first. If the calculation is accurate, the money will be lost." Li Qingzhao's face turned pale. This bastard actually cheated her!
It's still ten strings, why don't you go and grab it? And, what fate? Who is destined to you.
Bai Meng was happy in his heart. This talented girl from Li had come to give him money. She was indeed his noble person. He immediately replied: "The girl's marriage is not good. They will get married soon. The other party's surname is Zhao, but they are not from the official family of Zhao Song." Zhao."
When Li Qingzhao heard this, his blood pressure instantly soared. He was not from Zhao Song's official family, that is, he was not from the royal family. He secretly pointed out that it was Zhao Mingcheng.
She was like a dynamite bag with the fuse already lit. Bai Meng didn't remember very clearly what happened next to Li Qingzhao, so he actually gave her a fortune telling. Unexpectedly, the fortune telling was very vague.
Bai Meng had a bad conscience and had to do things after receiving money. He secretly used the corner of the innate Bagua array to deduce everything about Li Qingzhao. However, as soon as the array was opened, blood started to flow from the corner of his mouth.
He was worried about being discovered, so he wiped it away without anyone noticing.
Backlash, how could there be backlash? Is she also a monk? Impossible, this is the world of the afterlife. Apart from Bai Meng herself, there are people from the underworld. Moreover, she does not have the death aura of the underworld or the demonic aura on her body. It is obvious that her identity before reincarnation was extraordinary.
If she was a human being, she would be a mortal in reincarnation, so how could she not be counted? Could it be...
Everything about Li Qingzhao's deduction is unclear. That is to say, what he just said has no Taoist basis. It is just an argument derived from the memory of his previous life.
Bai Meng didn't care about it anymore and told the truth, just as he remembered: "The second half of your life will be very difficult. Your husband died young and you will be a widow."
Li Qingzhao was furious and scolded him loudly, telling him not to leave if he had the guts. Her thugs would come soon, and she had to see this guy beaten to death with her own eyes.
"Say what you have to say, don't do this." Bai Meng tried to stop her with words. He was not a fool. He ran away immediately when the situation was not right. He did not want to be accused of bullying a weak woman.
Bai Meng ran ahead holding Bai Banxian's flag, while Li Qingzhao chased behind him holding a narcissus skirt, telling him not to run, saying that he would not do anything to him.
Li Qingzhao wanted to follow him, remember where he was staying, and then look for someone to beat him up. Everyone in the Jinshi Club didn't know what to say. They might have been even more angry than this.
Wherever the two of them passed, everyone turned their attention. Li Qingzhao chased for a while. She wanted to see where the other party would end up. I turned around to find someone to beat him up, but found that the person was gone.
Bai Meng returned to the inn, thinking of the embarrassing scene just now and the backlash of the technique. What kind of life experience does Li Qingzhao have?
However, his expression changed and he said to himself: "Ah~ someone actually trashed the place! I'm really angry."
Bai Meng tightly closed the door of the inn and meditated on the bed, absorbing the almost exhausted spiritual energy in this world, regulating the body's veins, and slowly recovering from the internal injuries caused by the backlash. At the same time, he was thinking about how to compete on his own under the limitations of spiritual energy. This law of heaven?
the other side.
When Li Qingzhao returned home, she learned through her servant that her father Li Gefei was receiving Zhao Tingzhi. Li Qingzhao was not surprised. She also felt that her father intended to marry Zhao Tingzhi. Not long after, Li Qingzhao was called over by his father.
"My father intends to betroth you to Minister Zhao's son, what do you think?" Li Gefei said calmly to his daughter, asking for her opinion.
In the past dynasties, marriage between officials and other families was the most normal thing. However, what surprised Li Qingzhao was that that guy was right! ! !
After thinking about it carefully, her father Li Gefei did have a good relationship with the Zhao family, and many people in the capital speculated that the two could become a success.
Li Qingzhao's eyes suddenly lit up and he responded softly: "Dad, let's think about it again. I met an accomplished man today and he said that Mr. Zhao and I are not compatible."
Li Qingzhao was worthy of being the most talented woman of all time. He quickly attributed the cause of the problem to Bai Meng's words and led the trouble to him, leaving the Zhao family to find that guy's trouble.
Li Qingzhao thought to himself, what does it mean to be an expert? You're just a bastard. You cheated and deceived. You deserve to be beaten to death by someone from the Zhao family. Don't you know everything? Can you figure out that the Zhao family is going to trouble you?
But with his intervention, the marriage can be postponed, and there may be a chance of improvement.
"What Taoist priest? Where did I meet him? Did he really say that? Where." Li Gefei was stunned and then asked.
Li Qingzhao smiled evilly and said: "He is a Taoist priest with profound skills. I met him at Ranyuan Qiaotou. He accurately told us about our family's situation. He also said that my father would mention this to me when I got home. I'd better not agree to the marriage."
It has to be said that the most talented woman of all time is smart. She even deceives her father when she is ruthless. She talks nonsense and takes it for granted that she doesn't want to get married, and blames the root of everything on that bastard.
"Ranyuan Bridge? Has he always told fortunes there? Have you never seen him before?" Li Gefei recalled, as if he had never seen it before.
"Dad, why did I lie to you? Many sisters in Jinshi Club know this. Don't push your only daughter into the fire pit." Li Qingzhao said politely with a smile.
Li Qingzhao's conscience found out, but she shook her head again, "Don't blame me, just let the Zhao family beat you up. You will suffer a little and it will make you remember."
"Okay, okay, your dad, can I still trust you? What does that look like? Your dad will find out when he has time." Li Gefei paused for a moment, then sighed.
Li Qingzhao dealt with it easily and didn't panic when he lied. Tell his father that the Taoist priest is a master of Taoism, with a clean and pure Taoist body. Although he is an old man, he gives people a very young feeling. His words can reveal the secrets of heaven, and he knows everything and knows everything.
Li Gefei naturally knew what his daughter was like, so he secretly sent his maid to Jinshi Society to find out what happened. Li Qingzhao had thought of this a long time ago. Her father would definitely come to Jinshi Society to inquire about information, and then go find the "master" in her words, so that the marriage could be postponed in a short time.
Ten days and a half have passed, and Bai Meng has almost recovered from his internal injuries. He only had a lot of copper coins, but these days of food, clothing, housing and transportation have made his already poor life even worse.
He had to get another money as soon as possible, so he left the inn. Today he was wearing a black Taoist priest's uniform without a Taoist priest's hat. His white beard looked so out of place with his image.
He was not going to do divination for people today because he knew that it was difficult to do divination on the streets and people did not trust him. He went to an antique market and wanted to try his luck and make a profit.
In the antique market, facing all kinds of antiques, Bai Meng felt that he was really too insignificant. He couldn't understand it at all. He looked at it as if everything was real. He had to admire the Song Dynasty's counterfeiting skills. It’s so realistic. Even if you are lucky enough to find a treasure, how will others know it is the treasure and come to buy it?
Bai Meng had not fully recovered from his internal injuries, so he left the antique market without stopping. Obviously, buying antiques to earn the price difference was difficult to practice in the Song Dynasty where it was difficult to distinguish authenticity from fake.
There is a temple bridge at the connection between West Street and Maxing Street. Maxing Street was the largest street in the Northern Song Dynasty.
On West Street, there is a circular arch. After entering this door, you can see a pond covered with lotus leaves, with dragonflies touching the water and resting on the tips of the lotus leaves. There are pavilions surrounding the pond, and further into it, there is a round arch with attics inside, which fully demonstrates the architectural style of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Bai Meng also saw this arch here on West Street. There is a large stone in the lower left corner of the arch. The stone is covered with moss. You can clearly see several characters on the stone - Jinshi Society.
