The person who appeared was none other than Xiaoqing and the Bodhisattva. Reunion after a long absence (not very long, actually.) It's been less than two days), and finally goodbye. Cheng Li immediately wanted to go.

But before he could move, Xiaoqing had already lost his voice and shouted: "Sister!" and rushed to Xue Yanxia's side, wrapped her arms tightly around her, and exclaimed with tears in her eyes: "Sister, I'm Xiaoqing." Do you still recognize me?"

"Xiaoqing, are you Xiaoqing, but the way you look, how do you ......?"

In an instant, Xue Yanmian seemed to be very surprised. But then, the natural aura of the same clan had already clearly told her that this was true, it was Xiaoqing.

Seeing the old man after hundreds of years, Xue Yanxia can't help but be sad and joyful. She stretched out her arms, and in turn hugged Xiaoqing tightly, never letting go again. Suddenly, the two sisters snuggled up to each other and cried loudly at the same time.

Seeing them like this, Cheng Li didn't want to go over and disturb them. At this time, the Bodhisattva Man also came over, and Cheng Li immediately greeted him and said, "Miss Rou, you are safe and sound, that would be great." ”

The Bodhisattva smiled and said, "Cheng Shao, you're fine, that's better." Alas~ I didn't know how worried I was when I saw you being swallowed by that monster before. ”

Cheng Li shook his head and said, "I'm ashamed." After a pause, he asked, "Where were you all during this time?"

The Bodhisattva said: "At that time, Xiaoqing was unconscious, and you were swallowed by the monster under the water. I had no choice but to take Xiaoqing and escape first. Anyway, there are thousands of caves here, as long as you find a random place to hide, you are not afraid of being caught up by the pursuers. And so it was a day and a night. Xiaoqing finally woke up. We were trying to find a way out, but suddenly we met Mr. Chunqiu. ”

Cheng Li turned his head, glanced at Juan Chunqiu, and asked, "Who is he?"

The Bodhisattva said: "It's not particularly familiar. But there are also quite a few meetings. In Baisha Academy, there are ten doctors of classics, and their attainments in Confucian classics are particularly profound. Mr. Chunqiu is one of them.

Therefore, a few years ago, when the Son of Heaven was not in power, he invited Mr. Chunqiu into the palace to give a lecture to the Son of Heaven and explain "Mencius". At that time, I followed Uncle Shi and participated in several banquets in the palace. Therefore, Mr. Chunqiu and Mr. Chunqiu can be regarded as old acquaintances. ”

Cheng Li suddenly realized. He knew that although the world always referred to Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. But in fact, the influence of Confucianism is even greater than that of Buddhism and Taoism. Just because since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "deposed a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone", all dynasties have governed the world with Confucianism. Regardless of the generals. Speaking of civil officials alone, they can almost be regarded as Confucian disciples.

Of course, this kind of Confucianism, which specializes in the study of scriptures, is not exactly the same thing as the Confucianism referred to in the rivers and lakes, and the source of Confucianism canonized by the Son of Heaven. But as the saying goes, you can't write two Confucian characters in one stroke. There are still inextricable relationships with each other.

As for Baisha Academy, it has a long history and has cultivated many talents in governing the country. Don't talk about it. Speaking of the current imperial court alone, at least more than forty percent of the officials were born in Baisha Academy, or at least they have attended classes in Baisha Academy. Therefore, Baisha Academy was canonized as the sect of Confucianism, which is really natural and deserved.

In this case, the great good thing of giving lectures to the Son of Heaven at the sutra banquet and teaching Confucian classics is of course indispensable to Baisha Academy. On the other hand, Zhuge Taifu is the Taifu of the Dynasty. The official position of Taifu is itself the emperor's teacher. Therefore, arranging for the teacher to teach the Son of Heaven was originally a matter of the Taifu's business. It is also a matter of course for the Bodhisattva to follow Zhuge Taifu and meet with Ju Chunqiu.

"Judge Chunqiu, what do you mean by this?"

Over there, Tai Yizi couldn't hold back any longer, and asked sharply: "That woman in blue clothes is obviously also a demon! You're going to bring her back? I'm so angry!"

Ju Chunqiu said with a smile: "Senior Brother Taiyi, don't be angry so easily." You're still wounded. Come, dissipate. Look at the girl over there, she is very familiar, right? She is the second 'Rouyi' among the four disciples of Zhuge Taifu. ”

Taiyizi snorted coldly. Said: "It's one of the four major stalls, so what?"

Judging Chunqiu said: "Who is Zhuge Taifu, don't you know Senior Brother Taiyi, and you can't believe it? She repeatedly assured me that the little young girl was not evil, and she was not the kind of evil that harmed people. More or less, I have to give some face. ”

After a pause, Ju Chunqiu whispered and said, "Not long ago, I just received the news. After hearing the news of the collapse of Leifeng Pagoda in Hangzhou, the Son of Heaven once issued an order to bring the White Lady back to him.

Senior Brother Taiyi, if you insist on killing the White Lady here, then how should you explain to the Son of Heaven when you go back to Bai Yujing in the future? I'm afraid that in order to avoid getting into trouble, the Zhenwu Palace will take the initiative to cut off its tail to survive and hand you over. The future is ruined. So you say, is it worth it?"

After hearing these words, even Taiyizi, who was originally full of resentment and only wanted revenge, couldn't help but hesitate. Judging Chunqiu took the opportunity to persuade again: "If it is that kind of demon that harms human life, of course, it is not a pity to get rid of it." But the White Lady and Xiaoqing, we all know it. They are kind-hearted, how can they be compared to ordinary demons? Senior Brother Taiyi, they have to be forgiving and forgiving. Just give the Son of Heaven a face, and let them go for the time being. ”

Bodhi Chankong was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded again and again: "Yes, Senior Brother Chunqiu is not right." Senior Brother Taiyi, please raise your noble hand. ”

Taiyizi weighed it again and again, and finally stomped his foot heavily, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay." Then let them get out of here. In any case, the island in the middle of the lake must not let them take half a step. If there is a disobedience, even the face of the Son of Heaven, don't blame us for not taking care of it. ”

Bodhi Chankong was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "No, no, of course they are all people who know how to measure." Senior Brother Taiyi, I have a Heavenly King Heart Replenishing Pill here, your injuries are not light, hurry up and take it first. As he spoke, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and poured out a fragrant vermilion elixir.

Taiyizi knew that this Heavenly King Heart Replenishing Pill was a secret elixir of Longhua Temple, which had miraculous effects on the treatment of internal and external injuries. My injuries are really not light, and I just need them. At the moment, he didn't shirk it, took the pill, didn't say a word, turned around to perform light skills, pedaled and tread water, and went back to the island in the middle of the lake to sit down, and never came out again.

Xiaoqing and Xue Yanxia, two sisters, this is really called a reunion after a long absence. At this moment, their minds are all on each other, where do they still have the heart to fight and kill? Taiyizi took the initiative to leave, which was right in the middle.

Although looking at the appearance, Bodhi Zenkong still had something to say, but Xue Yanxia was already extremely disappointed and disgusted with him. didn't say a word at the moment, wiped away the tears, pulled Xiaoqing and left. Cheng Li and Rou Yi naturally followed.

The little boy of the Yan family and the peacock looked at each other, and they were obviously very disappointed with such an ending. But there was no choice but to quickly follow Cheng Li and the others away. Behind him, there were farewell words recited by the Spring and Autumn Man.

"The cold bears the night forever, and the cool evening is clear to the autumn. Centrifugal how to give, its own jade pot ice. ”
