Great Sui Guoshi

"Now?" Lu Liangsheng was a little surprised.

"Not now, why wait until next year when the spring is warm and the flowers bloom?" Daoist Toad walked to the door of the room step by step, carrying a package on his back and pulling a black-striped gourd. …”

Lu Liangsheng sighed, did not pack up the easel, took a paper umbrella, went outside to open it, put Master on his shoulder, looked at the heavy burden in his hand, and couldn't help asking: "Master, what's in it?" thing?"

"Take... um, the pill needed to repair the injury for the teacher."

Taoist Toad hastily swung his webbed away, almost bringing out afterimages.

"Don't look, it's not for you!"

"Okay, don't look!"

Lu Liangsheng smiled, turned his head and shouted towards the courtyard: "Everyone come out."

Standing in the rain with a paper umbrella, seeing Taoist, Zhu Gangyan, and Mu Qiyou poking their heads out, only then did they know that Taoist Ha was going to retreat on the mountain, and coaxed them off together.

After all, it may be months before we see each other again.

Leaving the small courtyard together in the noisy room, in the sound of the rain, in the silent room, a wisp of green air drifted out from the easel set up, spun a few times in mid-air, and submerged in the "Boundless Mountains and Seas" spread on the table .

At the same time, Lu Liangsheng, who walked out of the village with everyone, felt a little itchy on his back...

Chapter 366 Mysterious Turtle

"Master Toad, if there is anything I haven't prepared, I'll go down and get it for you."

"There's no need to go. What else can the old toad take besides food. Look at the bag that old Lu is carrying, it is estimated that the food is almost packed."

"Lu Liangsheng, what's inside, let my old pig have a look."

"Go, it belongs to the old man, don't look at it!!"

The drizzle fell down the mountain road and hit the oiled paper umbrella. Lu Liangsheng, who was walking behind the crowd, stopped holding the paper umbrella, feeling a little itchy on his back. Could it be that he hasn't bathed for a long time and his skin is dry?

"...Little Toad is really going to retreat, what happened? Old demon, old demon, tell me."

Hearing Mu Qiyou's words, the scholar twisted his shoulders, moved his robe and rubbed the itchy place, feeling a little better, then walked over to follow, with a smile on his face.

"Nothing happened. Master, his demon core has been damaged for too long, and he just wants to speed up his recovery."

The tree demon is pure and innocent. During the past few days, he has spent a lot of time with the people in Lujia Village, and got a little smokey. If she knew that he was besieged that day and lost his cultivation, Master would have to retreat to repair his injuries. It will really knock on the door and cause trouble.

In this matter, the master was at fault in the first place, no matter what the excuse is, killing people is killing people, but they can't be like ordinary monsters and let the sect cultivators deal with it.

After all, it is the master, as a disciple, you can't sit idly by, and right now, you can't make extra troubles, turn the things that were finally pushed down into an unmanageable situation.

"When I arrive in Chang'an next year, I'd better go to that place called Luohe Town, erect a monument to those who died there, and pay off my master's debt..."

While thinking about it, he walked through the mountain path guided by the faded red line, and came to the big bluestone where he saw Master for the first time. Taoist Toad stepped on his flippers and approached. Webbed.

"open!"

boom--

With a heavy sound, the boulder moved slowly to one side, revealing the dark hole behind it. The Taoist took out a piece of talisman and punched it in. It hung in mid-air and burned to illuminate the inside. It was put there when Lu Liangsheng practiced Nascent Soul in retreat in the past, but forgot to take it away.

There was a long pillar of oil lamp standing on the ground. After entering, Lu Liangsheng borrowed a fire from the Taoist and lit the wick. Apart from that, there was only an empty stone couch left in the entire grotto.

Taoist Toad jumped twice, climbed on the edge of the bed hanging in the air and kicked hard a few times, finally climbed up.

"Liangsheng, put your things down, and you can go."

"Also said please sit down, you are stingy!" The Taoist gave a blank look, and Zhu Gangli looked at the grotto, feeling that there was nothing to see, so they went out together and waited with their sleeves flapping.

Hong Lian cleaned the grotto, and Mu Qiyou also came to help. The two waved their long sleeves and used their magic power to clean up the dust.

The air flow is opposite, and the smoke and dust are filled.

Cough!

Taoist Toad coughed twice, and hurriedly asked the apprentice who still wanted to give a few words to take the ghost away.

The scholar had just taken two steps when Master's words sounded behind him.

"Liangsheng, wait!"

Putting the gourd aside, Taoist Ha stood on the edge of the bed and called Lu Liangsheng to stop him. Seeing his serious face, he thought he had something important to ask.

But he said in a low voice: "If there is something delicious, remember to bring it to the teacher and put it at Shimen."

Glancing at the rest of the people who went outside the door, he added.

"Don't tell them."

"We all heard it!!"

Outside the cave, Taoist, Zhu Ganglian, Hong Lian, and Mu Qiyou all shouted in this direction. None of them are ordinary people, and the distance is only five or six feet away. No matter how small their voices are, they can be heard.

"Huh, the old man is good at this, so don't talk about it."

Taoist Toad scolded, and turned his back, with the frog web hanging by his legs, he kept gesturing to his apprentice to go out quickly, but most of them were still seen through and laughed, which made him a little embarrassed.

"Then I'll go out, and I'll come over every day to have a look. If Master needs anything, feel free to mention it."

Amidst the roar of laughter outside, Lu Liangsheng nodded in response, helped tidy up the stone couch, spread the master's quilt, and then left. Seeing the boulder closing with a rumbling sound, he calmed down and joked with everyone Then go back to the village, back to the fenced yard.

squeak~~

Pushing open the door, the easel was still standing there, looking at the strange beasts of mountains and seas outlined in green ink on it, shook his head, put it away and put it away.

'Without mana, no matter how lifelike it is, it can only be an ordinary painting. '

The rain gradually subsided, and the birds that flew to the old tree in the courtyard fell from the branches and twittered. The mother carried the firewood and walked to the kitchen. The demon scrambled, uprooted the whole vegetable, and broke it into two halves while hanging in the hands of the two.

Seeing this scene through the window lattice, thinking that he is now an ordinary person, Lu Liangsheng immediately shuddered.

"Let's continue to read my book, there is Yan Ruyu in the book..."

When I lowered my eyes and cast "Mountain and Sea Boundless", my expression suddenly froze. On the frame, the altar in the land of Sichuan and Sichuan has an extra bastard shape.

Ok?

This...isn't it the mysterious turtle I drew before?

Move your fingertips over, lightly tap, the shape of the tortoise created a small circle of ripples on the paper, Lu Liangsheng almost instinctively turned his hands over, he didn't know why he made this gesture, however, the next moment, the palm of his hand There are bits and pieces of light gathering.

"Ming Ang~~~"

A sharp hiss sounded in the light, and when the white light faded, the palm sank, and there was a blue and black turtle shell in the palm, the limbs and legs kicked out together, propped on Lu Liangsheng's hand and slowly stood up. Standing up, the position of the head and the tail popped, revealing two heads.

In the front is a bird with red feathers on its head and neck, and a long snake body protruding from its tail. At the top, there is a green snake with its fangs stretched out, and it hisses.

It's not as big as Master...but it's so small, it's kind of interesting.

Lu Liangsheng touched it lightly, and it felt real. He threw it on the table, and it turned into white smoke and disappeared with a bang. After waiting for a while, it didn't appear again.

'Well.....can't leave my hand, can it only be used for viewing?Or is there some other way I'm not aware of? '

I tried a few more times, and it was the same as before. I didn't put it down until my mother called him to eat at the door of the kitchen.

'Maybe it has something to do with painting?Don't be impatient, haste makes waste, and explore one or two in the afternoon. '

Having made up his mind and found a new way to practice, Lu Liangsheng closed "The Boundless Mountain and Sea" contentedly, closed the door, and walked into the kitchen with Taoist and Zhu Ganglian.

Outside the ticking rain curtain, on the mountain road leading to Fushui County, the rain stopped. A carriage ran over the muddy road, splashing a puddle of muddy water.

Soon, the carriage stopped, and a skinny old monk lifted the curtain and saluted the driver.

Wearing cassocks and holding a golden bowl, he strode to the temple in the rain ahead.

Chapter 367

The clouds are whitening, and the sun is gradually shining.

In the wet forest, raindrops dripped silently along the tip of the leaves, soaking them. An old monk with a golden cloth on his shoulders and a golden bowl in his hand walked up the wet stone steps in cassocks, and crossed several large trees that covered him. , a temple stands in front of it.

The big plaque with a golden stroke is written with the word "Hong Lian". The big tripod that enters the temple gate is full of broken incense candles. It can be seen that the incense is very strong on weekdays. There is only one altar inside, and the clay statue is made of long-sleeved flying The woman, with a lifelike face and figure, stood on it like a living person.

Because of the rain, there were few pilgrims. Occasionally, a few came out from the door, talking and laughing. It was quite strange to see an old monk outside.

"Amitabha!"

The old monk with the golden bowl in his hand applauded the three pilgrims dressed as merchants: "Three benefactors, you know that rural temples are not allowed to worship at will. Most of them are ghosts and monsters who lure fools to build temples and absorb incense. Worshiping them is an inhuman blessing." .”

"ill."

The sudden sentence made the three of them quite unhappy. They didn't come to this temple once or twice, and it was quite effective.

"Old monk, you are a monk, how can you talk like that, you are a fool if you worship the temple outside together?"

"The benefactor misunderstood. What the poor monk said was the god statue in the temple. It was not a fairy, Buddha, or saint. It was just a temple built to fool others. If it comes true, he will ask for a reward when he fulfills his vow."

"Then I spent money to worship in other temples, and got nothing. If I pray here and it will come true, it doesn't matter if I ask for a reward. It's a business."

The other two nodded and urged the talking companion to leave.

"Let's go, let's talk to this bald donkey."

The sound of footsteps went away, the old monk watched the three of them leave, turned around with a sigh, looked at the temple of Honglian in front of him, his pale beard and beard were stroked silently, no one else passed by, he threw his hand suddenly, and the golden bowl hung stand up.

"The shrine of obscenity—"

Shaking off the cassock, he leaned over with his big skinny palm, turned the suspended golden bowl, and shot a golden light towards the temple in front. As soon as he touched it, the same golden light stopped the golden bowl and flew back to the old monk's hand.

What I feel is not only the power of incense and wishes, but also the kind words that the people are willing to leave behind.

"It seems that you little ghost is still a little bit good."

The beard and cassock fell down calmly, and the old monk turned around holding the golden bowl and walked to the stone steps outside the temple, his voice resounding majesticly.

"I think you have done a lot of good deeds. If the poor monks don't kill them all, don't miss the world. Go back to the mountains to practice!"

The monk's aura went away, and at the gate of the temple, Hong Lian showed his figure, clutching his chest and feeling that his soul was not stable. The opponent's blow just now was obviously just a random shot.

"Who is this monk... so scary."

Floating to an old pine, leaning on the trunk of the tree to look at the figure of the monk who has walked down the stone path on the mountainside, I still have some palpitations.

"No, the direction he is going is Lujia Village. With the temper of this old monk, Zhu Gangmane and Qiyou over there are afraid that they will meet him. If they find Master Toad..."

Thinking of more than one monster in the village, Nie Honglian pursed her red lips, turned around, her skirt fluttered, and she floated off the ground lightly, flying towards Lujia Village.

Floating to the air to overlook the roads and fields, the sun broke through the clouds and drove away the damp and cold after the rain. Many villagers went out to bask in the sun, or went to the fields with hoes to make up for the delayed farm work.

In the small fenced courtyard located in the corner of the village, raindrops flowed down the tiles and fell drop by drop from the eaves.

Lu Liangsheng sat under the eaves, set up his easel, and the tip of his pen moved quickly. In his eyes, another strange mountain and sea beast gradually showed its outline under the outline of green ink.

On the low stool next to the legs is the picture of the black turtle that I drew before. After lunch, I put the black turtle in the palm of my hand from "The Boundless Mountain and Sea" and put it into the painting. Sure enough, the painting started to move, blinking and neighing , but how to use it, Lu Liangsheng still didn't find a way.

The stubbornness of the scholars who used to explore knowledge was aroused. They set up their easels and drew another strange beast to see if they would still enter "The Boundless Mountains and Seas".

In the small courtyard, the Taoist priest who was yawning bored came down from upstairs, raised his hand and stretched his waist, sat next to the scholar, he was not polite, took a sip of tea, and glanced at the strange beast with teeth and claws on the painting, Shake your head.

"If you want to speak from your own way, it's better to be down-to-earth in cultivating the way. Since the old one is gone, you have to start all over again. I'll teach you, and I won't let you take this way as your teacher. Just call me senior brother."

Lu Liangsheng ticked the painting with the tip of his pen, and glanced at him from the corner of his eye, "Want to be my brother-in-law? Take something from your master as a bride price?" Putting down his hand, the tip of the pen dipped into the inkstone, and continued to drop to embellish the painting.

The Taoist smiled awkwardly, wiped the mustache on his lips, and moved closer.

"We are so familiar, don't be like this, you also know, there is nothing in this way, there are either talisman papers or cinnabar in the pocket, at most there are a few small snakes, frogs..."

Sun Yingxian's words were not false, he was an orphan, his parents were unknown, it was his master who picked him up to raise him, and after his master died, he only left a book on Taoism.

Every time he went out, Lu Liangsheng paid for it, and he rarely took the initiative. Recently, when he was traveling outside, the Taoist stayed in Qixia Mountain, which relieved Lu Liangsheng of many worries. Temperament, it is reasonable to get along with one's own sister to develop feelings.

"You should tell my mother about this."

Lu Liangsheng wanted to say one more thing, but just as he opened his mouth, he said, "Master." He stopped writing and looked outside the courtyard wall, Hong Lian floated down in mid-air, and hurriedly walked towards the eaves as soon as he landed.

Seeing her anxious face, the scholar put down his brush and got up, and Sun Yingxian on the side also went up to meet her.

"what happened?"

Hong Lian outside the eaves also stopped being polite, with an anxious expression on his face, he took the scholar's arm and looked outside: "Just now an old monk came to the temple. It is not good for Master Toad, as well as Zhu Gangmane and Qiyou, so I rushed to report."

old monk?

Lu Liangsheng had an impression in his mind, and he pulled Hong Lian to sit on the stool: "Don't worry, let me ask you, is the monk holding a golden bowl?"
