Great Sui Guoshi

"Hey! Don't run, everything is in place, why are you running?! You can even fold it in half!"

The Taoist squeezed out, yelled at the running away figure, spat on the ground in frustration, turned around and yelled at the akimbo who were snickering and watching.

"What are you laughing at, don't look at it in vain, at least give me some! It's not easy to feed these eight big men..."

While turning around to speak, out of the corner of my eye, on the official road leading to the east, a scholar in blue and white robes led an old donkey, carrying bookshelves, and walked slowly here.

The Taoist was none other than Sun Yingxian. When he saw a man and a donkey coming over there, he was taken aback, and immediately waved to Lu Pan and the others in the crowd: "Don't work hard, close the stall!"

After finishing speaking, he ran towards the scholar and the old donkey over there, and howled loudly.

"Hey, I've waited for your old man to come!"

Lu Liangsheng looked at him holding a small copper basin, and saw Uncle Pan approaching with eight spears and knives, he was a little puzzled.

"Old Sun, what are you doing, selling weapons on the street?"

"Selling weapons? I almost sold people!"

The Taoist was also angry, he stuffed the copper basin into his hand, sat down on the side of the road, took off his shoes, shook the sand, "...you think about it now, when you leave, you can leave money?"

Hearing this, Lu Liangsheng froze in place, stretched out his hand to touch the heavy purse in the other sleeve, and there was a rattling sound, so he had to laugh twice.

"..... I left in a hurry, I forgot..."

"forget?!"

Sun Yingxian got angry, put on his shoes, looked at the eight big men coming over there, and gestured a six to the scholar.

"Six days... Do you know how I came here?! The eight of them are so delicious, flying in the sky and running on the ground all the way, they are almost caught by the Dao, and they almost ran into it. The monsters in the mountains were dragged around and roasted on the grill."

The Taoist put his hands behind his back, spewing saliva non-stop, seeing the movement, the Taoist Toad poked out half of his face from the crack of the door and yelled at him.

"I didn't talk about you, what do you want to see?"

Over there, in the crack of the door, Toad rolled his eyes, slammed the door shut, and heard the voice of Fa: "Liangsheng, let's go to the city to eat! Master, I'm hungry after listening to those shop guys yelling."

Lu Liangsheng smiled, took the rein, called Lu Pan and others who came up, grabbed the old grandson's shoulder and patted him twice.

"I'm still angry. Didn't I come here? Let's go to the city and take you to a good meal."

"Don't put it on this Dao's neck, I can hardly breathe!"

The Taoist took his hand away, and it would be a lie to say that he was not angry, but the anger came and went quickly, who told him to like the girl of Lu Dashusheng.

Entering the city, the noisy long street is still bustling, but it is more orderly than the market outside the city. Lu Pan and the eight people hold knives and guns and stand behind the scholar, making the passing people stay away from them fiercely. Looking at the bustling street scene of Chang'an excitedly.

"Liangsheng, I didn't expect that selling art on the street can earn more than farming at home. If I knew it was slack, I would go to Fushui County to sell it."

"Sell? What are you selling? Selling meat!"

The Taoist pointed to the street where people come and go, he didn't care about the eyes of others, and said: "You can earn more here in Chang'an. You can try it in Fushui County. A dozen coins a day is not bad. It’s not enough for you to stuff your teeth.”

Thinking that he had suffered a lot on the way, Lu Liangsheng saw him muttering and complaining, and said some words of comfort. He looked at the side of the long street in front of him, and there were flags with white characters on a blue background fluttering, and a big word "stack" Write in the middle.

The guy who greeted the guests at the door saw a group of ten of them, plus an old donkey, with a smile on his face. After welcoming a guest in, he put a rag on his shoulder, ran up courteously, and took the reins from Lu Liangsheng.

"Everyone, do you want to stay in the hotel or eat?"

"If you stay in the hotel, you will naturally have to eat. Brother, please take my donkey to the backyard to take care of it and get some good fodder."

Lu Liangsheng told the guy, and then he brought Lao Sun and Lu Pan into the store. The lobby of the inn is not very big, there are already more than a dozen tables, and almost all the guests are sitting, shouting, drinking and punching. Or eat quietly, see a group of people coming in, just look at it, and continue eating and drinking.

Behind the counter, the skinny shopkeeper was fiddling with the abacus to keep accounts. When he heard someone coming, he raised his eyes, and a scholar came over and cupped his hands.

"Shopkeeper, do you still have room in your house?"

"There are, it's just the rooms..." He glanced at Lu Pan and the eight people, and hurriedly said: "...there are definitely not enough rooms, why don't you squeeze them together?"

"Okay, let's squeeze!"

Lu Pan and the others are rough men in the mountains, they just need a place to sleep, so they took down the last three rooms of this inn, divided the eight people into two rooms, Lu Liangsheng and the Taoist shared one room, and ordered about 20 more people Let the staff deliver the meals to the room.

"By the way, this letter, please do some errands and send it to Duke Yue's mansion for me. Give it a little hard work."

Stuffing a few text companions into the clerk's hand, the latter took the sealed letter paper and nodded: "Guest officer, just wait, I promise to deliver it to you!"

After the clerk closed the door and left, Xiyou floated out of the bookshelf, sat down on the stool carelessly, picked up the chopsticks and knocked back and forth, while Taoist Toad opened the small door of the bookshelf, the frog web quickly untied the rope around his waist, climbed onto the table, After taking a deep breath of the aroma of the food, he flicked the apron rather delicately and tied it on his chest.

"Liangsheng first put a piece of fat meat for the teacher, to appetize!"

"Then master sit down."

Lu Liangsheng picked up a chopstick of braised fatty meat and put it in the master's bowl, turned around and poured the wine, held it with the Taoist, chatted about what happened before, and naturally also talked about the catastrophe of heaven and earth... .

Chapter 428 Scholar Makes Friends All Over the World

"Bingtang~~Gourd!!"

"Affordable pottery jars! Passers-by guests may wish to take a look. It can be used as a chamber pot in the room without filling anything!!"

"... Calligraphy and painting, the calligraphy and painting of scholars, are pasted and hung on the wall. After a hundred years of writing, they will be valuable. Don't miss it~~"

The sun was setting on the west side of the city, and the twilight sprinkled on the noisy long street, and the second floor of the inn where the noise of people came, the sun shines through the window lattice.

"It's his old mother... 10 people...even if it's [-] pigs, if I use my magic, I can't finish killing them in half a year."

"Tuo'er, he used the Xuanyuan Sword. Combined with the divine power of his Kunlun Mirror, it disappeared within a few breaths. The two are combined, and there is no power in this world to contend with. Even if there is no Xuanyuan Sword right now, with his current strength, he can't fight against it." Can look down on the world."

"Hurry up, show Xuanyuan Sword to me, I have never seen what a divine weapon looks like before."

Amidst the noise of eight big men drinking and making noise next door, Lao Sun put down his cup, got up from the stool in a hurry, lifted up the hem of his robe and ran to the bookshelf, beside the Moon Misty Sword, the wide-faced scabbard hung, simple and profound, like a Taoist As if caressing the skin of a lover, he stroked it with his fingertips a few times, took a deep breath, said "good sword!" and took the hilt away...

Then, the golden light suddenly appeared.

With a bang, the whole person flew back, Lu Liangsheng threw the wine glass, flashed from the stool, rushed behind the Taoist, put his hands on his back, and then caught him. After that, he slid open to push against the wall, and the open window lattice beside him was buzzing and shaking.

"Ben.....Ben Dao said it.....old..." The Taoist held his chest and couldn't finish a sentence. He stood up against the wall and looked at Xuanyuan, whose golden light had dissipated on the bookshelf over there. Jian, "Old Lu, why are you all right?"

Lu Liangsheng patted the dust on his robe, walked out from behind him, and said with a smile: "This Xuanyuan sword is protected by a scabbard, so no one else can touch it. Don't forget the scabbard. The last time Changyang Mountain buried its head in Xingtian Naturally, I can use what I got from the cave, right, Master?"

Turning his head to look at the square table over there, Taoist Toad's head was covered with a wine glass, and a loach was wriggling in the mouth of the toad, and he sucked it into his mouth, "Liangsheng, please take the glass back and put it away first, and then ask the teacher."

When Lu Liangsheng hurried up to take down the wine glass, the Taoist rubbed his mustache and walked over, not daring to touch the Xuanyuan Sword anymore, so he just squatted on the opposite side to take a closer look.

"I thought that judging by his appearance, his skills are not bad..."

While speaking, the door suddenly knocked, the Taoist got up and looked at the scholar at the table, the latter put down his wine glass, after thinking for a while, he knew who was coming.

squeak~~

Lu Liangsheng opened the door, and Yang Su, dressed in Taoist robes, stood outside with a dharma sword on his back, looking at him with a smile. After a moment, his smile froze, and he looked up and down the scholar.

"Hey, your cultivation level..."

"Duke Yue, please, let's talk about cultivation later."

Returning the salute, Lu Liangsheng stepped aside and invited the old man in. Yang Su stroked his beard and ate Hesai on the table. I said hello.

The Taoist in the room and the dryad in the black skirt also looked familiar. They cupped their hands and were about to sit down. Before they sat down, they seemed to feel something. Subconsciously, they turned their heads to look at the bookshelf in the corner, and their eyes widened suddenly. , pointing at the Xuanyuan Sword hanging above.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, why is this sword here with you?"

"It's a long story." Over there, Lu Liangsheng closed the door and came back, invited him to sit down, served drinks, and told him the whole story.

"...On that day, I could see that Tuo'er abandoned his sword and left, and he didn't want to make it difficult for me. Perhaps, why he left this Xuanyuan sword with me has another meaning."

Yang Su had also listened to the calamity of heaven and earth for a while just now. As a famous commander and courtier of the Sui Dynasty, seeing what the scholar said, how could he not be able to get any clues.

"Grand Master Yuwen was afraid of being noticed, so he left this sword without a trace, just because he wanted you to use Xuanyuan to deal with that Master Wuyuan?"

"Most likely."

Lu Liangsheng filled him with a glass of wine, and filled himself with a glass of wine, and held him up to give him a light touch.

"...He said that this magic circle is used to resist the catastrophe of heaven and earth, but he didn't reveal anything about Master Wuyuan. The meaning in the secretive words is obvious. It's just me. I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with. A few years ago What happened to the Fire Praying Sect, tens of thousands of women and children were put into pottery urns and used as human sacrifices, how could such people save the common people in the world.”

Yang Su covered his sleeves and drank the wine in the glass, thinking for a moment: "Your Taoist's words are wrong. If the calamity affects all things in the world, no matter how evil a person is, I'm afraid they will not be implicated. Maybe he also has his own way to save the world. .”

These words caused the scholar to fall into silence. Yang Su, the Duke of Yue, has rich experience and knowledge. It is not impossible for him to say what he said, but it is just to save the world, not to correct the evil. After that, he will still go his own way, as he did many years ago , captive people to make human sacrifices.

What's more, the matter is not completely clear, what is the catastrophe of heaven and earth, is the magic circle really used to resist?In case... thinking of the red light that reached the sky that day, no matter how you look at it, it is an extremely evil method.

'I wish I was thinking too much. '

The three of them, including Toad, sat at the table laughing and persuading him to drink, and Lu Pan and others from the next door also came over and dragged the old grandson to the next door. Knocking on the door, the moment I opened the door, I saw a blushing, thick-necked man standing at the door, and there were seven muscular men inside, shirtless, who turned around and cast their gazes.

At the door, Lu Pan shook the two muscles in his chest and raised his chin towards the other party.

"What's the matter?"

"It's okay... just want to say, if you guys are not enjoying yourself enough, I will treat a few guests and... have a drink."

After speaking, he spread his legs and turned around and ran.

"It's inexplicable, are the people in the city stupid?"

Lu Pan looked at the man who ran away without saying a word, shook his head and muttered, and closed the door. The tenant who ran away put his robe on a door. Lu Liangsheng listened to the movement for a while, smiled and gave Yang Su poured the wine.

"The one who came here just now is my uncle. The Duke of Yue has come here several times, so he should have seen him."

"I've seen it before. These eight people are not enough to be seen in the cultivation, but they can be put in the mortal world. They are first-class fighters."

After drinking a few cups, the old man opened up his chatter box. He is always by the side of the king and has the merit of being a dragon. There are fewer and fewer people who can talk. Only this young man who is many years younger than him in front of him can speak Afraid of his identity, he doesn't even think that most of the spells he uses are evil and harmful.

After saying a few beautiful words, Yang Su remembered that last autumn, Lu Liangsheng had said that he would come to the capital this year.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, last year you said that you came to Chang'an to enter the imperial court, did you still count?"

The scholar nodded, spread his sleeves, and offered a toast.

"Of course it counts. If you enter Chang'an next time, you will entrust someone to deliver a letter to Duke Yue?"

Hahaha!

The two looked at each other, laughed one after another, bumped into each other, raised their heads to drink, and looked at the scholar opposite, Yang Su was also in a good mood.

"Since fellow daoist is here, I will go to the palace to meet His Majesty later, and settle the matter of fellow daoist entering the court as soon as possible."

Lu Liangsheng also thought about joining the imperial court as a national teacher for a long time. Since he agreed last year, he would naturally not regret it. Besides, the national teacher is not considered an official position, but to protect the luck of a country. It is in line with his original intention. .

In less than half an hour, the sky outside also darkened. Yang Su finished talking about the rules and regulations for entering the court, and said his farewell and left. He left the inn and rushed towards the palace without stopping.

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

As night fell, Lu Liangsheng lit the lamp and put it on the desk in front of the window lattice. The satiated Taoist Toad slowly climbed onto the bed, uncovered the quilt, and crawled into it to cover it up.

The lights were flickering, Mu Qi floated over, pressed against the edge of the bed and let out a low moan, leaned forward a little with his slender body, propped his chin, looked at the side face of the scholar illuminated by the fire, pursed his red lips, and touched his face Blow.

"Old demon, shall we sleep well? I haven't held you to sleep for a long time..."

"Qiyou, don't make trouble, I still have things to do."

Lu Liangsheng indeed still had things to do. After entering the imperial court as a national teacher, the first thing he had to do was to bring the five-yuan master to the agenda, but he was definitely not enough. Ordinary soldiers used to die for nothing, so they had to find him. some helpers.

hum~~

Seeing his focused eyes, Qiyou raised her feet and rubbed against his legs, turned around sullenly and turned over on the bed, tossing and turning over the quilt.

The night was getting darker, and soon, the room also became quiet, and the moonlight fell on the open window lattice and sprinkled on the paper full of handwriting.

The rustling sound of writing stopped, and Lu Liangsheng picked up the letter in his hand and blew on the ink on it, pinched out a finger, and removed another blank piece of paper, and the latter, the empty paper was full of content in a moment.

'Sui'an, Zuo Qianwei, Yan Daoyou, Laozhu, Monk Fajing. ． ． ． ． ．Including the Duke of Yue, the Taoist, Xiyou, and the teacher here. ． ． ． ． ． '

The night wind squeezed through the window lattice, the scholar looked at the bed that was snoring slightly, and Qi You rolled over, talking softly in her sleep, under the kicked-off quilt, a black shadow hung on the side of the bed with its tongue drooping, its limbs twitching slightly.

"...Master, forget it, it should be enough."

In front of the desk, Lu Liangsheng flicked the wick. On the desk, a few pieces of letter paper had been folded into cranes. As the light flickered, they flapped their wings and stretched their necks to peck at the body of the paper. They all flew out of the window and rushed into the night sky. The color turned into several streamers, scattered in different directions.

Chapter 429 Dugu Jialuo

Wandering clouds cover the crescent moon, the cold moonlight recedes, and the huge city below is covered with lights of thousands of families like a river of stars.

In the imperial city, a figure rode his horse through the imperial city to the front of the Xuanwu Gate. With a sound of 'wow', he tightened the reins, and a soldier came over: "I have seen the Duke of Yue!"

The person who dismounted was Yang Su. He handed over the reins to the soldiers who came over, said a few words of encouragement, and walked quickly through the long and towering palace road. On the way, he met patrolling guards and guards on duty holding The weapons bowed and bowed their heads one by one.

In the salute words, the old man passed through the Xuanzheng Hall all the way to the side street of the harem where His Majesty always lived, and the high-rise buildings that extended past. The eunuchs and maids bowed their heads and waited outside the door. He took half a step back to one side.
