Chapter 003: There is no way to see him
Lu Qingyi has lived for more than 20 years, and has never gone far away, thinking very simply, and only when she goes out does she know how difficult it is to travel.
There were four of them, Lu Mingshu was too young, and she was half sick herself. If it weren't for Hui Niang and Ah Sheng insisting on sending them, I'm afraid they would have to go back after leaving Qingfeng Town.
Even if they send each other, it will not be easy. Along the way, you have to eat and stay, and if you miss the inn, you have to sleep in the open, Lu Qingyi's medicine can't be broken, and you have to be careful of bandits...... Ah Sheng is honest and honest, Hui Niang is a weak woman, the two of them have never left Qingfeng Town in their lives, how much knowledge can they have? From Dongyue to Xichuan, there are thousands of miles, stumbling all the way, walking for more than half a year, which is hard, not enough for outsiders.
And when I arrived in Xichuan, the real trouble came.
"Let's go, didn't you say it, we don't have a name for Fu Ze in Jiuyao Palace!"
Jiuyao Mountain, where Jiuyao Palace is located, is the first mountain range in Xichuan, with a total of nine peaks. Its terrain is steep, the peaks and peaks are continuous, and idlers can't go up. When they wanted to find someone in Jiuyao Palace, they could only go to Jiulu Prefecture at the foot of the mountain first, where there was the lower courtyard of Jiuyao Palace.
But Ah Sheng went several times in a row, but was driven away by the janitor.
Ah Sheng was not good at words, and he was so anxious that he stumbled: "How could it not be? Then, that's our master, he, he's the head!"
"What nonsense? Our head is not called Fu Ze. Go away, go away, and you're welcome if you don't leave. β
Ah Sheng still refused to leave, and the final result was nothing more than a few more hits, and he had to leave if he didn't go.
He returned to the small inn where he lived temporarily, Hui Niang was serving Lu Qingyi to drink medicine, and when he saw Ah Sheng like this, he sighed: "Still can't it?"
Ah Sheng lowered his head.
Lu Qingyi was lying on the bed at this time, her face was not bloody, and her lips were as white as paper. The conditions are not good, and there is a faint smell of sweat in the house, mixed with the smell of medicine, which is disgusting.
When they arrived in Xichuan, they didn't have much money left, but the silver ticket given by the woman was still there, but Lu Qingyi refused to use it, so she could only live in this small inn.
Lu Qingyi coughed twice and said, "I'll go in person tomorrow, no matter what, I'm his wife, and he has to come forward when he makes a big fuss." β
"Madame!" Hui Niang said hurriedly, "How can your current body stand up to tossing?"
When she was in Dongyue, Lu Qingyi was half sick to death, and she was almost exhausted after a long journey.
"But it's not the way to drag it out like this. The more I can't hold on, the more I have to find a way out for Mingshu as soon as possible. β
"Madame......"
"Mother. Lu Mingshu pushed the door in, "Maybe there's a way." β
It is said that suffering is grinding, and along the way, Lu Mingshu has grown up day by day, speaking and acting, and is no longer as childish as before. In the past, there was Grandpa, she just had fun, but now that Grandpa is gone, and her mother is sick like this, she can't be naΓ―ve anymore.
"Is there any way?" Lu Qingyi asked.
Lu Mingshu said: "Just now I saw that the street was being cleaned everywhere, so I went to ask the boss." The boss said that in a few days, the incorruptible son of Zhongzhou Qizhen Temple will come to Xichuan, and the head of Jiuyao Palace should come to Jiulu Prefecture to greet him. β
Ah Sheng and Hui Niang were overjoyed.
Hui Niang said: "Ah Sheng and I will stop him!"
Lu Qingyi showed a rare smile: "It's good to have a chance......"
Ah Sheng went to inquire about the matter in detail, and Hui Niang went to do the laundry, and only the mother and daughter were left in the house.
Lu Mingshu took off his shoes and went to bed, and gently leaned on his mother's side: "Mother." β
"Hmm. Lu Qingyi stroked the top of her head.
"I inquired, and he ...... changed his name, now called Fu Shangqing, married the daughter of the former head of Jiuyao Palace as early as six years ago, and gave birth to two children. β
Lu Qingyi paused.
"Mother!" Lu Mingshu raised his head, there seemed to be tears in his eyes, "Shall we go back to Dongyue?" He has long forgotten us, and he doesn't even want a name, I don't want such a father." β
Lu Qingyi's thin cheeks trembled: "Aren't you going to practice martial arts?"
"We also have sects in Dongyue, so we don't have to stay in Xichuan. Lu Mingshu hugged her, tears rolling down his chest, "I don't want a father, I just want you to live." β
When Grandpa died, she was very uncomfortable, as if her heart had been gouged out, and if she was a mother, she would ...... She regretted it so much, why didn't she persuade her mother when she left?
Lu Qingyi burst into tears. If she can get better, how can she be willing to send her daughter to that treacherous man? But when she was in Qingfeng Town, Dr. Hu hinted that she was just staying through this illness. Along the way, I also saw many doctors along the way, without exception.
"I heard that these people who practice martial arts will refine a lot of elixirs. Lu Qingyi said softly, "If you really want your mother to live, when you recognize your father, beg him to let him take the elixir to treat your mother's illness, okay?"
"Really?" Lu Mingshu's eyes lit up.
"It's really ......" Lu Qingyi turned her head away from her daughter's gaze.
After a few days, Jiulu Prefecture was really lively, with loess mat roads, clean water splashing streets, and even roadside stalls were not allowed to be placed. Almost all the disciples of the lower courtyard of Jiuyao Palace were sent out, cleared out of the main road, and were not allowed to pass.
Lu Mingshu mixed in the crowd and listened to other people's gossip.
"What a big formation, what is the origin of these Seven True Views? Do you want our head to greet you in person?" Jiulu Prefecture is at the foot of Jiuyao Mountain, and the residents here are blessed by it, most of them are the families of the disciples of Jiuyao Palace, and they have a great sense of belonging to Jiuyao Palace.
"I don't know the Seven True Views, one of the three factions in the world! The Seven True Views, the Jade Ding Peak, and the Tianhai Pavilion, these three factions can influence the general trend of the world. β
"What about our Jiuyao Palace?"
"Our Jiuyao Palace is also very powerful, but compared to the three factions in the world, it is still slightly inferior...... "The person who spoke was a little weak-hearted, to say that a hundred years ago, Jiuyao Palace was indeed only slightly inferior, but in recent years, Jiuyao Palace has few talents, and it is a little far worse than the three factions in the world......
"Well, I'm not afraid. Our head is a genius who is difficult to come out of a hundred years, and it has only been seven years since he officially started, and he has already reached the realm of enlightenment, and sooner or later he will gain insight into the true meaning and become a grandmaster!"
"Yes, yes," that person's Ying He was sincere, "Our Jiuyao Palace will definitely be able to carry forward in the hands of Master Fu." β
At noon, a group of people slowly walked outside Jiulu Prefecture.
There were both horseback riders and cart riders. Leading the way on both sides were the disciples of Jiuyao Palace, and there were more than a dozen people, some wearing plain green robes, and some wearing vulgar clothes.
The Seven Truths View is a Taoist palace view, but not all of them are Taoists, but most of them are lay disciples.
"Look, that's the honest son. β
Lu Mingshu sat on Ah Sheng's shoulder, and looked over there when he heard the words.
I saw two lay disciples step forward and lift the curtain of the carriage, and one left and one right removed a wheelchair from the carriage, and a young man was sitting in the wheelchair.
This young man, looking at his appearance, is fifteen or sixteen years old, with a face and eyebrows, like a snowy peak under the blue sky, clear and lofty, shining. Although he is in a wheelchair and is not good at walking, he is quiet and peaceful, and his bearing is extraordinary.
The children raised by the water and soil of Xichuan tend to be rough and heroic, and everyone has never seen such a character, and they are all stunned.
At this time, someone from the other end came on foot. The leader is a man of about thirty, with good facial features, flying eyes, wearing the clothes of the head of Jiuyao Palace, looking handsome and free, but also majestic.
When Ah Sheng saw this person, he was so excited that he couldn't speak, and he was patted on the back by Hui Niang, only to know that he shouted: "Master, master, I'm Ah Sheng!"
