Another night passed, Shi Qingyi left the residence early in the morning, and walked straight to the direction of the inner city, Luoyang City is extremely wide, in addition to being divided into the inner city and the outer city, there is also a vast imperial city, the imperial city is full of palaces, each palace is a broad, prosperous city, enough to show the wealth of this dynasty and the great joy of today's son. In such an atmosphere of comparison and luxury, all kinds of skilled craftsmen, craftsmen and artists are gathered here, which is convenient for the rich and powerful to summon, and at the same time enjoy the luxurious life in Luoyang City. And the destination of Shi Qingyi's trip is the location of Luoyang City, the location of the inner city closest to the imperial city.

The more you go to the city, the more prosperous the shops on both sides of the street become, and the residences have gradually changed from simple houses of commoners to mansions of dignitaries, especially in the inner city, this situation is particularly obvious, and when Shi Qingyi came to the bustling handicraft street, in addition to these commercial streets, the surrounding area was already full of mansions of wealthy nobles. Shi Qingyi browsed the street unhurriedly, setting up a stall at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and it was not possible to have some real skills, so whether it was cheap small craft ornaments or expensive famous calligraphy and paintings, all of them were exquisite and ingenious. Shi Qingyi walked slowly and watched. Exquisite bamboo weaving, delicate Danqing wonderful brush, dignified and deep stone carving, and countless fine calligraphy and painting. Since this place is the location of Luoyang, of course, there are a lot of famous calligraphy and paintings of the past dynasties, such as Tao Yuanming's poems, Sima Xiangru's calligraphy, but after Shi Qingyi identified it, it was found that there are many genuine products, but there are more fakes, it seems that no matter which era, antiques are this thing, there is always a big market for counterfeiting. Shi Qingyi sighed and continued to wander around, looking for the place he wanted to find

After a long time, Shi Qingyi finally found the place he was looking for, a store specializing in selling calligraphy and paintings, the name is also ordinary, called Wenmo Zhai, and what caught Shi Qingyi's attention was neither the name of the store nor the scale of the store, what attracted her attention at a glance was the position of the store under the plaque, where there was a smart white jade butterfly, which was dancing gracefully. Shi Qingyi smiled, this is it, it's really good. This shop, with this pattern, is the stronghold of the Flower School in the Six Paths of the Demon Gate.

Shi Qingyi walked in, and the boss immediately greeted him with a smile, "This young lady is here for the first time?" We sell a variety of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones. There are also many celebrity handwritings in the collection, so what do you want to choose? The boss smiled and greeted people, but Shi Qingyi had a cold face, she didn't speak, just stretched out her hands, and made a gesture with a slight stiffness, and seeing this gesture, the boss's face changed greatly, he immediately looked around, and found that no one paid attention here, so he laughed and said such a sentence: "It's a coincidence, what Miss wants, we just have it in our store, please come with me." As he spoke, he made a gesture of please, walked to the back of the shop with Shi Qingyi, and finally walked around and entered a hidden room. Closing the door, the boss immediately respectfully saluted Shi Qingyi: "The eldest lady is fine, Zhang Xu, the subordinate director of Luoyang, has seen the eldest lady!" "The sign language of the Demon Gate, the number of codes is extremely large, and the Huajian faction is subordinate to the Demon Gate, but the person who can use the gestures used by Shi Qingyi can only be herself or her sister Qingxuan, the reason is very simple: this is a gesture specially designed for them by the evil king. Therefore, as soon as Shi Qingyi made this gesture, the manager of Luoyang, Zhang immediately recognized her, knowing that it was the daughter of the lord, so he naturally did not dare to slack off.

"The Lord has learned that the eldest lady has left Xishu a month ago, so he specially notified all places that if the eldest lady arrives, be sure to meet the needs of the eldest lady." Zhang Xu said to Shi Qingyi, "The eldest lady is here, if she needs a subordinate place, she will be defined as a subordinate." Shi Qingyi nodded, "Okay, I came this time, I have something to ask for, I want to read the map of the internal layout of the Zen Temple, the more detailed the better, the time is at the end of this month at the latest, I have an emergency!" Shi Qingyi knew that this was no problem for this Zhang Xu steward, because of his own professional relationship, the Huajian faction had close relations with dignitaries and dignitaries, and could often get information that was difficult for other people in the Demon Dao to obtain, so he didn't drag his feet, said his requirements, and explained that he needed it urgently, so that Zhang Xu could prepare it as much as possible, and sure enough, Zhang Xu replied to Shi Qingyi without the slightest hesitation, "The eldest lady's request is not difficult, I will immediately ask someone to do it, but what does the eldest lady want this thing for?" Zhang Xu asked Shi Qingyi, his voice was a little puzzled, "You must know that the monks in the Zen Academy have never been all the way with me, but what dangerous things is the eldest lady going to do?" Shi Qingyi waved his hand, "No, I'm just looking for someone to treat a patient." It's just that that person always doesn't show up, that's why I want to ask you for a map of the Zen Temple, that's it, there's nothing to worry about. Shi Qingyi said. But Zhang Xu's face changed, "The person the eldest lady is looking for, but is it empty?" With all due respect, if there is a person who the eldest lady has to heal, my disciples in Luoyang should go to the Zen Monastery together, but they can't let the eldest lady be in danger alone. Shi Qingyi's face changed: "Bastard, you take care of when my business is there." Pointed at his face, Zhang Xu was embarrassed for a while, but he still faced Shi Qingyi without regrets, "The responsibility of the subordinates, even if the bones are broken, the eldest lady cannot be put in danger." Please think twice, if the eldest lady insists on going, please be sure to bring your subordinates with you! Shi Qingyi looked at the young man in front of him with a calm face, but never more than thirty years old, he had a headache, he was in charge of the management of such an important place as Luoyang at such an age, it can be seen that this person's ability, in fact, Shi Qingyi never doubted this person's ability, if he went with him, his confidence in retreating would be greatly increased, and it would cause a lot of trouble to the Jingnian Zen Temple, but if he wanted to treat Rong'er's sister's illness, there would be a possibility of failure, and this result was something that Shi Qingyi never wanted to see.

"Your loyalty is commendable, so for your loyal subordinates, the leader should protect their lives!" Shi Qingyi said, "As Daddy's subordinate, you should understand that the leader will not be wrong," after a pause, she continued, "In fact, if I don't bring you, the situation will be in my favor, because I am not from the Demon Gate, and the people I rescued this time have nothing to do with me, and I have never had anything to do with these monks, and you!" All are familiar faces!! Shi Qingyi sighed, "Alone, just a stranger pilgrim, together with you, is involved in the battle of the Demon Dao, at this time." I don't want to make a fuss. Zhang Xu is still insisting on his opinion, "What the eldest lady said is extremely true, but if there is a sudden accident and they recognize it, the young lady will be alone at that time, and she will definitely be besieged by that group of monks, how can the young lady get out." Hearing this, Shi Qingyi's face showed a relaxed expression: "No," Shi Qingyi said with a smile, "Because although my father is the big devil in their mouths, I am different, there is a relationship with my mother, and the monks of the Zen Monastery just don't sell my face, and they won't do anything to me." After saying this, Shi Qingyi looked at Zhang Xu with both eyes: "Now, what else do you have to worry about." Zhang Xu was silent.

Shi Qingyi's mother in the mouth is naturally the fairy Bixiu of the previous generation of Cihang Jingzhai, when she walked the rivers and lakes in the early years, she didn't know how many heroes and heroes of the rivers and lakes were fascinated, and later married a generation of evil king Shi Zhixuan, and achieved a martial arts story. Although today, the past has become a memory, but just by virtue of the identity of Bi Xiuxin's daughter, Shi Qingyi will be protected by many predecessors in the rivers and lakes, which is a relationship that money and power cannot exchange. In addition, Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Monastery are originally from the same origin and have a deep relationship, therefore, Shi Qingyi, who is the daughter of Bi Xiuxin, also has an extraordinary relationship with Jingnian Zen Monastery, and she goes alone, which is indeed better than taking a group of demon sect people. Because of this relationship, although Zhang Xu was still not at ease, he could no longer say anything to refute. Shi Qingyi saw that the other party had been persuaded by herself, so she told the other party to prepare the things she needed, she was going to come to pick it up soon, and after the explanation, Shi Qingyi returned the same way under the leadership of Zhang Xu. When he arrived at the door, in order not to attract the attention of others, Zhang Xusai gave Shi Qingyi a roll of Xie An's words and pretended that the deal was reached, and Shi Qingyi took a cursory look and rolled it up. Then under the face of the merchant disguised by the other party, leave the shop.

Zhang Xu kept watching Shi Qingyi's figure disappear, and then rushed to the back room as if he remembered something, in another hidden room, Zhang Xu wrote a line of words on a piece of paper with a pen, and then stuffed it into an empty pen barrel, walked to the window, pulled out a thin wooden stick in the three rows of bricks under the window, and stuffed the pen barrel into it. After doing this, he exhaled a long breath, calmed down, and walked back along the way, the room was next to an alley, or it wouldn't be long before the pen would be taken away and passed to the hands of the people of the higher level of the Flower Sect, so that the layers of reporting would finally reach the hands of the evil king. The words on the note are very concise, just one sentence: The eldest lady has arrived in the Eastern Capital, and is about to go to the Jingnian Zen Temple alone.

On the way back, Shi Qingyi thought in his heart: It's been a while, and the news of his arrival in Luoyang should have been passed on by the person in charge, Zhang Xu! I just don't know what Daddy will do when he gets the news. What this father thinks, Shi Qingyi never knew about his father. What the hell is going on in my head.

Since he is in the street where craftsmen live, he naturally wants to buy something, Shi Qingyi thought about how he looked when he used these beautiful gadgets to make Changsun Wurong happy, so he had a fever in his head and bought a lot of them, plus the words Xie An, Shi Qingyi's hands were occupied. In this way, with calligraphy and painting in one hand and beautiful gadgets in the other, Shi Qingyi swayed all the way back to his own residence in the Yuelai Inn. Rong'er saw that those gadgets were really dazzled, and the necklace made of stones of various colors and Baker was dazzling with dye. Painted with a delicate color plate of local customs, the shape of the delicate shape of the bamboo zodiac is realistic. Embroidered decorated fan...... Eldest Sun Wurong rummaged through it excitedly, and on the other side, Eldest Sun Wuji was holding the painting of Xie An's words in his hand and looking at it repeatedly, laughing stupidly as if he had fallen into an evil spirit. Shi Qingyi just looked at this qiē with a slight smile while thinking about his plan. What are the flaws?

Whether it is hearsay or demon gate information, it is pointed out that Kong is indeed a monk who has attained the Tao, especially in the past ten years, he has been practicing closed-mouth meditation, and his martial arts have approached the realm of the grandmaster, but because of the profound Buddhism, the understanding of the dispute between the demon and the road is not ordinary people, if the person who comes is not a cruel person, most of them will not make trouble, so it is not Shi Qingyi's biggest difficulty. Even if Shi Qingyi fails to seek medical treatment, most of them are not worried about their lives.

The biggest difficulty is those monks who protect the courtyard, especially the four protectors of the Dharma King Kong as the most, the most jealous and hateful, fierce as fire, if Shi Qingyi meets them, it is inevitable that a vicious battle, if it is delayed for a long time, attracting many monks in the temple to besiege, the situation must be very bad, so Shi Qingyi must plan in detail to ensure his own safety. If you fail once, you will have the next chance, and if you lose your life, it will be a qiēover, although strictly speaking, Shi Qingyi is already a person who has died once, but she is not willing to experience a death.

So as the date approached, Shi Qingyi's movements became more and more frequent, she made a lot of clothes, bought common but wide variety of dyes, and when she was alone in her room in the evening, she would open the wooden box and take out the red silk and wipe it constantly. Although these things were done in a very secret time, Shi Qingyi's abnormality would eventually be detected by Gao Shuyun, the eldest grandson who had been watching her, although she could only see a small part, but she could also vaguely detect it, this time, Shi Qingyi was going to make a desperate plan, what she did such a thing for, it was self-evident. Although she didn't want this independent and strong girl to work hard for her own affairs, Gao Shuyun could only be silent when she thought of her daughter.

In this way, with the passage of time, under the continuous preparation of Shi Qingyi, this day soon came, this day, it was the day when the Jingnian Zen Temple opened the mountain gate, and recruited pilgrims to worship the Buddha, Shi Qingyi hired a carriage and went straight to the foot of the Jingnian Zen Temple, the rest of the road, only rely on the legs step by step, one to exercise the body, the other to sharpen the will, see the high mountain, one by one stone steps winding up, Shi Qingyi couldn't help but sigh: the essence of the Buddha, in this long staircase, all embodied. Faith is really a terrible thing, Shi Qingyi is fearless about this long staircase, but he turned around and looked at the weak Gao Shu Mica and the daughter, Shi Qingyi was still a little dissatisfied in his heart: It would be nice if there was a cable car. didn't say anything, Shi Qingyi supported Rong'er, and the eldest grandson Wuji supported Gao Shuyun, and the four of them began a long climbing process.

Although it is still early, but the Jingnian Monastery is worthy of being a well-known big temple in Luoyang City, the mountain road has already been full of dense pilgrims, four people are mixed in the crowd, the slightest inconspicuous, with everyone walking together, until the front of the Zen Monastery Square on the mountainside, the quiet and unmanned place on weekdays, because of the fixed day of accepting believers incense and it seems to be very lively, the small merchants who buy things, the monk who measures the word, the fortune teller, the farmer who sets up a stall to sell food, surrounds a whole big circle, When many pilgrims were entering and leaving the door of the Zen Temple, they lingered on the stalls from time to time, but the dense flow of people was part of Shi Qingyi's plan, so after finding an excuse to separate from the mother and daughter, Shi Qingyi walked alone to the door of the Jingnian Meditation Temple. Soon lost track in the crowd.

The detailed map provided by Wen Mo Zhai has long been kept in mind by Shi Qingyi, according to the layout of the Jingnian Zen Temple, the place of empty practice should be in the backyard of the Zen Temple, Shi Qingyi broke away from the crowd, carefully avoided the monks who protected the temple, relying on the concealment of the high wall and the shadow of the tree, or hurriedly or slowly to the established goal, the backyard of the Jingnian Zen Temple is very large, if Shi Qingyi wants to find the empty, it will take a long time.

Just when Shi Qingyi was busy looking for someone, she didn't expect that the mother and daughter who were left to play in front of the mountain gate would meet unexpected people, Dafan This kind of large-scale Buddhist event, there will always be dignitaries and nobles to worship the Buddha and incense, this time is no exception, Gao Shuyun was walking in front of various stalls with his children, and he saw a noble lady walking in front of him, looking at himself with a smile: "Long time no see, sister!" The lady's voice was gentle and magnificent, which made Gao Shuyun stunned, and then she looked carefully at the person in front of her, and at this look, her eyes never moved away, "It turned out to be you, it's really been a long time!" Gao Shuyun said faintly: "Dou **, no, I should be called Mrs. Li now," Gao Shuyun's gaze moved away from Mrs. Li's face, glanced at the entourage behind her, and moved back to her face: "After so many years, you have changed so much, I almost can't recognize you." ”

A warm smile appeared on Mrs. Li's face: "Sister Yun, you haven't changed much, after so many years, I still recognize you at a glance, since you're back, why don't you go to see my sister, or do you see me outside?" Gao Shuyun shook his head: "No, it's just that a lot of things have happened, and it's not very convenient, but since I have met my sister, I will take the liberty of asking, how is the old lady's body now." ”

Mrs. Li, is the wife of Tang Guogong Li Yuan's Dou Shi, the old lady in Gao Shuyun's mouth is her mother-in-law, the old lady Dugu, the biological sister of the late Queen Mother Dugu, speaking of this old lady Dugu, that is a very remarkable woman, she is the fourth daughter of the general Dugu Xin of the Pillar State, the eldest sister married Emperor Jingxuan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and became the queen, the youngest seventh sister married the first emperor of this dynasty Yang Jian, also the queen, the daughter of the younger sister married the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and is also the queen, although the old lady Dugu is only a general's wife, But his temper and courage are equally extraordinary, and he is also one of the idols who are feared and respected by the aristocratic women of this dynasty (the first idol is, of course, the late Queen Dugu). Gao Shuyun had a good relationship with the old lady before he got married, so he asked the old lady about the situation without being abrupt.

Dou and Gao Shuyun Dou's old acquaintance, and mentioned the elders, it is not a matter of saying goodbye in two words, Dou immediately ordered his subordinates to find a place to rest, and then took Gao Shuyun's hand over, and after the mother and daughter sat down, they and Gao Shuyun told each other about their respective experiences over the years.

Since Gao Shuyun married the eldest grandson Sheng, followed her husband to guard the border, so there was a lot less contact with these past relatives and friends, and then the first emperor died, and now the saint moved the capital to Luoyang, moved hundreds of officials and family members from Daxing to Luoyang, and the eldest grandson Sheng guarded the frontier all the year round, and did not move his family from Daxing City to Luoyang, so the relationship between Gao Shuyun and former relatives and friends was all interrupted, and the Dou family did not see Gao Shuyun for more than ten years, until now, the two met at the moment of incense in this Zen temple.

Speaking of the situation of the old lady Dugu, the old man's body is still tough, but his temper is getting bigger and bigger with time, except for Dou's, the other daughters-in-law don't even dare to see their mother-in-law's face, which shows that they are afraid of something. Gao Shuyun laughed: said that although the old lady was old, she was still so short-tempered, and Dou also laughed. Then he glanced at Gao Shuyun meaningfully, and said that in fact, the old lady also likes you very much, but she almost recognized you as her goddaughter, Gao Shuyun shook her head, saying that she didn't have that blessing, and she couldn't stand the kindness of the old lady, Dou Shi was a little anxious and said that after so many years, why don't you change your weak temperament, if you go to fight for it at the beginning, maybe you will be with that person now, and it will not be enough to let Queen Wenwen (that is, Queen Dugu) marry Changsun Sheng as a continuation...... Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gao Shuyun fiercely. Then he turned around and signaled to Dou that his children were all by his side. Dou realized that he was speechless, and quickly changed the topic, and talked to Gao Shuyun about the experiences of being a noble girl before getting married. Speaking of the past, the two former sisters couldn't help but sigh, as if just yesterday, the two were still innocent girls, but now they have become mothers of their respective children.

When it comes to children, they can't help but think of one thing, Dou looked at the eldest grandson Wurong behind Gao Shuyun, and then asked the girl's name with a smile if it was the eldest grandson Wurong, and after getting a positive answer, Dou immediately smiled, and then she looked the girl up and down with her eyes, and her sharp gaze made the girl very scared. Seeing this, Gao Shuyun hugged the girl into his arms, and when he looked at Dou angrily, Dou was not in a hurry, but began to talk about the situation of his children.

"The eldest son is married, and now he has children, but he can support a piece of the sky, but the remaining four children!" Dou shook his head: "It's all about the three younger sons who don't make people worry, they know that they fight all day long, and their daughters are crazy and don't look like girls, how can they marry in the future......" Mrs. Li was stunned, but she didn't expect that in the other direction of Luoyang City, in a mountain forest, her second son was sneezing again and again.

"Second brother, do you have a cold?" A little younger, at first glance, a loyal and honest little boy asked his second brother. "No," Li Shimin agreed impatiently, just because of those few sneezes, the arrow just now was a little off, and the pheasant in his hand flew away, making this young man with outstanding archery skills extremely depressed. "Then why do you keep sneezing!" The boy was really too honest, and he didn't know that this question was redundant, and sure enough, Li Shimin's angry voice came: "How do I know, this damn sneeze, if you don't shoot sooner or later, you just hit it every time I shoot an arrow with a bow, so I didn't shoot an arrow to hit the prey, this time I came out to have fun, if it goes on like this, what kind of fun will I have, just go home." Li Shimin was angry at the sneeze, and pointed the muzzle of the gun at his younger brother, "I said Xuanba, your martial arts are not bad, why can't you help me when I hunt, and when the time comes, it seems that you have the ability to carry the prey to see my father." But I heard Xuan Ba's voice say in a small voice: "Brother, I don't know how to shoot arrows, and I don't use martial arts!" Li Shimin listened to the black lines in his head, this guy, has he never thought of using other methods? Really...... Ay.

Among the four brothers of the Li family, the eldest brother has built the longest, not only has married a wife, but also has a Lin'er, the second Li Shimin has been a naughty bag since he was a child, and now he is a little older, and he is even more restless, taking the third flying eagle lackey all day long, causing trouble, the third Li Xuanba is an honest child, although he is only fourteen years old, but his martial arts are already very good, and then there is the fourth Li Yuanji, a child who is always silent. There is also Li Xiuning, a thirteen-year-old girl who is also a restless master, tossing all day long The chickens and dogs of the Guogong Mansion are jumping, these four children have always made Dou's brain hurt. Now that it is rare to have a sister who has not been seen for many years, Dou's mouth really can't be stopped for a moment.

After talking for a long time, Dou finally stopped, at this time, due to the rise of the sun, the eldest grandson Wurong was already nestled in Gao Shuyun's arms, a little dizzy, Dou saw the girl's abnormal look, and also wanted to ask the girl if she was sick, but Gao Shuyun looked at him left and right, seeing this, Dou was not good to continue to ask. The thing that I wanted to mention with Gao Shuyun was also swallowed back into my mouth. Then Dou ordered a subordinate to go to the Zen monastery in order to provide a guest room for the eldest grandson Wurong, after the subordinate left, Dou asked why Rong'er was not in good health, why did she come to the Zen monastery to burn incense and worship the Buddha, instead of staying at ease to take care of her body. Gao Shuyun had to say that because there was an enthusiastic girl who heard that the monks of the Zen temple were good at medical skills, so they took the three of them up the mountain to seek medical treatment. Speaking of this monk, Dou is actually very familiar, it turns out that this dynasty respects Buddhism, and the Buddhist monk is the powerful in the court is also respected, because of the relationship between the old lady Dugu and the queen of Dugu, this monk is also familiar with the people in the Guogong Mansion, but since more than ten years ago, after the monk practiced the closed mouth meditation, he gradually went deeper and simpler, and did not ask about the world, so it is extremely difficult to see him now.

Hearing that a girl was going to enter the Zen monastery to meet the monks, Dou could almost conclude that it was impossible, with the identity of the monk, even if the Guogong Mansion invited her, she might not be able to get a reply, a little girl, unless she was lucky enough to avoid all the monks who protected the temple.

Dou said this to Gao Shu Yun's mother and daughter, but Gao Shuyun did not show any expressions of worry and disappointment, her peaceful expression was to tell Dou unmistakable: I have confidence in her. It made Dou a little puzzled, what is the identity of that girl.

"Since Buddhism is compassionate, why do you want to prevent outsiders from seeking medical treatment, or is it just a deception?" A faint voice sounded in his ears, Dou Shi was frightened, and when he looked around, sure enough, except for a few martial artists, most of them were in a trance. It's actually the Heavenly Demon Ecstasy, Dou almost suspects that there is something wrong with his ears, the Heavenly Demon Ecstasy is one of the most famous of the many magic sects, it is a means of using the voice to attack, the will of the martial artist, the true qi in the body will be vibrated endlessly because of the influence of the demon sound, and the people who are not firm in their will often lose their sanity or martial arts because of this, it is a very insidious method, however, because it is a method specifically for the true qi, so it has no effect on ordinary people who have not practiced internal force, And it seems that the owner of the voice is not a malicious person, and the reason why he uses the Heavenly Demon Ecstasy Sound is just to transmit the sound, but Dou Shi is still very surprised, because the owner of this voice actually uses it here, you must know that this is the pure land of Buddhism, the lair of monks. And Buddhism has always been inseparable from the Demon Gate. At this time, of course, Dou didn't know that the owner of this voice had fallen into a fierce battle, and the shape was gradually becoming more and more dangerous.
