Creation Color Master

On an official road outside Yunzhou, Chu Mo and his group were traveling slowly.

It is only mid-January, still winter, and the wind in the air is still chilly.

Riding on the green-eyed jade dragon, surrounded by woods and fields cultivated by people, the grains planted on the earth are green, as if waiting for the weather to warm up and the arrival of spring rain.

From a distance, it adds a lot of vitality to the barren earth.

At this time, Chu Mo was heading to Qingyang County, not far from Xianyang City.

After receiving Yan Wenfu's request yesterday, Chu Mo decided to make Qingyang County the first stop of his trip. After all, he didn't know where to go, and Qingyang County happened to be not far from him. At the same time, Chu Mo also agreed to Yan Wenfu's request.

It turns out that when Yan Wenfu was still a poor scholar, he had already married, and his wife was also a Taoist practitioner.

This was also the reason why he knew at first glance that Chu Mo was a practitioner of the Dao of Drama when he first saw Chu Mo.

The main purpose of this trip is to go to Yan Wenfu's former residence and take away the opera heritage left by his wife.

As for why Chu Mo was asked to get it himself and Yan Wenfu did not come, there is a sincere yet bizarre story behind it.

The early-rising couple loved each other very much and lived a very ordinary life with the man farming and the woman weaving.

But Yan Wenfu did not want to be content with the status quo. He wanted to achieve fame and give his wife a better life.

So he left his wife alone at home and resolutely embarked on the path of studying.

On the day of her departure, the couple had a big fight. Yan Wenfu thought that his wife was content with the status quo and was blocking his way to study, so they parted unhappily.

During his three years of study, he visited almost all the academies in Yunzhou and also left his footprints in the surrounding states, but during this period he never received a letter from his wife, and the letters he sent home also received no response.

He just thought his wife was still angry with him and didn't want to reply to his letter.

When he returned after completing his studies and successfully achieved certain success in Haoran Academy, he finally had time to go home and see his wife whom he had not seen for three years.

When he returned to that place full of memories, his own courtyard was already overgrown with weeds and in ruins.

After some inquiries, he found out that his wife had died shortly after he left.

Later he found out that the reason his wife didn't let him leave home was not to block his study, but because she knew that she didn't have much time left and wanted him to stay to accompany her through the last part of her life.

At that moment, he felt like his world had collapsed, and he couldn't believe that everything he saw was real.

He went straight to his wife's grave without even going home, but reality dealt him another heavy blow.

When he arrived at his wife's tomb, he saw a line of words carved on the bluestone: Yan Wenfu and Fan Lingjun will never see each other again in life or death.

He knew that his wife still resented him, and he was too ashamed to appear in front of her, so he disappeared after paying his respects.

He never went back after that. He lived in guilt and was too embarrassed to disturb his deceased wife again.

After listening to Yan Wenfu's story, Chu Mo was very puzzled. It seemed that this had nothing to do with him. Did you come to me to ask me to go and commemorate your deceased wife on your behalf?

In this regard, Yan Wenfu explained that his wife would not perform on stage after marrying him, and she was extremely talented in opera, and had a part of the opera heritage in her hands. Her greatest wish after marrying him was to accept an apprentice and find a disciple to inherit his mantle and pass on the heritage.

After understanding everything, Chu Mo was still a little confused. Why did he choose him?

Yan Wenfu said that he was not chosen, but he had been looking for a disciple who was suitable to inherit his wife's legacy. It was a pity that no one worthy of his wife's legacy appeared.

It was delayed again and again, and more than 50 years passed.

Finally, after meeting Chu Mo, he was attracted by Chu Mo's talent and finally decided to pass on his wife's inheritance to Chu Mo.

After understanding what happened, Chu Mo agreed. Regardless of whether there was inheritance or not, he should go to pay tribute to this senior in drama.

Chu Mo sat on the Jade Dragon, looking at the intersection of three roads that forked to the left and right, and asked behind him: "Daoyan, where are we now?"

Yao Guangxiao held a map and answered while looking at it: "My lord, we have entered Qingyang County. If we want to reach Fenggu Town mentioned by Master Yan, the two roads on the left are both possible."

Looking at the road that branched off to the right and stretched into the distance, Chu Mo asked uncertainly, "Daoyan, are you sure these two roads are OK?"

Yao Guangxiao put away the map, urged his horse to come to Chu Mo and said, "Yes, my lord. The road on the left is shorter and needs to pass through a village. The road may be difficult to travel. The right side is all official roads. Although it is remote, it is all official roads. Which road do you want to take?"

Just when Chu Mo was about to make a choice, he saw a group of people rushing towards this side on the road to the left.

Yao Guangxiao's eyes were full of Buddha light, and he said softly, "My lord, it's fine. They are probably catching thieves or something. The highest level of their cultivation is only that of a spiritual master. My lord, you don't need to pay any attention to them."

Chu Mo watched the black spots in the distance getting closer and closer, and then he could see clearly that the person running in front was a strong young man, and behind him were villagers holding sticks and farm tools.

The man leading the group from behind was dressed like a servant, and the man in front looked honest and simple, and didn't look like a thief, so there must be some hidden story behind it.

As the distance got closer, Chu Mo heard the man dressed as a servant behind him say, "Tian An, today is my young master's wedding day. You dare to cause a scene at the wedding banquet? Get out of Futian Village."

Seeing this scene, Chu Mo rushed forward and stood in front of everyone when the man ran past him. He said, "Everyone, why are you forcing an unarmed person like this? Is there anything you want to discuss?"

The leading servant looked at Chu Mo carefully. Seeing Chu Mo's luxurious clothes and extraordinary temperament, and seeing the horse exuding a hint of magic, he did not dare to neglect and said, "Greetings, sir. You have misunderstood. It is not that we are forcing him, but Tian An is ungrateful. Today is the wedding day of our young master, and he actually wanted to kidnap the bride. That is why my master ordered people to drive him out of Futian Village."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the people in Futian Village. My master is from a kind family. He is usually friendly to others and often helps the common people. He had no choice but to order us to use force today."

After the leading servant finished speaking, the villagers holding farm tools behind him echoed him.

Yao Guangxiao whispered in Chu Mo's ear: "My Lord, I have already checked with my magical powers, they are not lying."

Chu Mo said to the leader, "Young man, we are from Xianyang City and are passing by here. Since we happened to meet your young master's wedding, I wonder if you could take us to see your old master and have a glass of wedding wine."

The leading servant said in surprise, "Young Master came from Xianyang City. I see that you have an extraordinary demeanor and are full of talent. I'm afraid you are a scholar. Our master likes scholars the most. My master will definitely be very happy if you can attend the young master's wedding banquet."

"Sir, please follow me. I will take you to see my master."

Before leaving, he did not forget to threaten: "Tian An, if you dare to return to Futian Village again, I will break your legs."

As he said that, he took Chu Mo and walked towards Futian Village, while the man named Tian An looked at the backs of everyone leaving with dejected eyes.

No one noticed that the man named Tian An had a small leather doll hanging around his waist.
