Chapter 9 Hui Zong

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, it was three days later. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the past few days, Wu Ming has stayed at home, except for practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard for an hour every day, the rest of the time he stays in the house to read books and practice calligraphy, which is called recuperation. During this period, the Wu family's compound was very lively, and many noble children who were good friends with him in the past heard that he was injured, and they all came to visit him and asked him to go out to have fun and relax, but he resigned in the name of recuperating from his injuries. This made his reputation change in Kyoto, and many people said that the three young men of the Wu family were completely enlightened by the son of the Mei family, and began to become diligent and studious.

Of course, this is just a joke, how can a second ancestor be so easy to change? People prefer to believe that he was scared by Mei Sheng, and he didn't even dare to go out of the house.

The Wu Mansion and the Mei family are silent about this, and if the juniors like to make trouble, let them make trouble, the Wu family can't fight with the Mei family because a concubine was injured, right?

On the fourth day, Wu Ming was almost recuperated from his injury, and he personally went to the main house to bid farewell to the eldest lady Luo and the second lady, planning to return to the First Sword Sect to continue practicing.

The main house of Wu Mansion is a high-rise building, there are dozens of stone pillars carved with dragons and flowers and birds in vermilion, and the steps made of white jade are paved on the red carpet, stretching for dozens of miles without seeing the beginning and the end. Wu Ming stood at the bottom of the stairs, his face calm, and looked up at the two gorgeously dressed women on the top steps.

The woman on the left has her hair tied up high, with a golden flying phoenix hairpin in the middle, a Yunjin palace dress embroidered with peonies and flying birds, a slightly chubby body, and a rich face; The woman on the right is even more slender than that, combing a flying cloud bun, inserting a slightly inferior silver phoenix hairpin, her face is young and beautiful, but she is not smiling.

The woman on the left can wear a golden hairpin, which is naturally Mrs. Luo of Dafang, who makes Wu Ming jealous, and is the biological mother of her son-in-law Wu Junhao, and the woman on the right is Mrs. Liu, the second brother, the biological mother of the second brother Wu Tongxuan. Wu Junhao and Wu Tongxuan are both cultivation geniuses, and the second wife is the room where the Ming media is marrying, and they can be described as powerful in the house, when Wu Yu is not at home, everything in the house is decided by the two of them. Even Wu Ming, a concubine who was basically ignored, had to come here to greet him before leaving, and he had to respectfully bow to the second woman.

According to the law of the dynasty, Wu Ming's mother and the second woman stood together, and Wu Ming also needed to worship the second woman before he could worship his mother. Of course, Wu Ming's mother had already passed away, and he couldn't encounter this kind of scene.

Although he was reluctant in his heart, Wu Ming was not a stubborn person, and he knew that he would not be able to get out if he didn't worship himself at this time. So as soon as he came, he directly worshiped the second woman, and then reported that he was going to go far away, so he stood aside by himself.

"Stubborn and stupid, for my mother's advice, stay at home and study, don't go to the sect to humiliate yourself again." Mrs. Luo listened to Wu Ming's intentions and scolded in a deep voice. She was against Wu Ming going out to practice from the beginning, and this time Wu Ming's skills were not as good as others and she was injured, so she had even more reason to oppose it.

"Returning to the eldest mother, the father nodded and agreed to this matter, and the child did not dare to disobey." Wu Ming's face did not change, only said this sentence.

"Hmph."

Mrs. Luo snorted coldly, knowing that there was nothing to do with Wu Ming today, so she turned around and went back to the house directly, and there was a maid behind her to lift the skirt for her, so as not to trample on the long skirt.

Mrs. Luo left without even saying a word of goodbye on the scene, leaving only the second lady Liu, who was speechless, still standing in place. In Wu Ming's impression, the Liu family is usually silent and low-key, and he shouldn't have anything to say, so he bowed his hand to the Liu family slightly, and then turned around directly to leave.

"Wait."

At this moment, a gentle and pleasant female voice sounded in his ears, Wu Ming stopped, turned sideways suspiciously, and saw Liu Shi, who was not smiling in the past, standing not far behind him, smiling faintly at him.

When?

Wu Ming's pupils shrank, the expression on his face remained unchanged, but he was extremely surprised in his heart. Just now, Liu Shi was obviously still at the top of the steps dozens of zhang away from him, and in a blink of an eye, he appeared at the bottom of the steps, only a few feet away from him, and the speed of movement was so fast that it was not an exaggeration to describe it as unexpected.

It is rumored that Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Liu are both good at cultivation, Wu Ming thought that the rumors were exaggerated, and he didn't know until today that the rumors not only did not exaggerate, but said that the skills of the two were lower.

"What else is going on with Erniang?" Shocked in his heart, Wu Ming's tone was as calm as ever.

"What, isn't Erniang fine, can't she stop you from talking?" Liu Shi showed a strange expression, and took a step closer to Wu Ming's side, Wu Ming only felt a gust of fragrant wind coming, and the other party's face was already close at hand. He frowned and took a step back without a trace.

When Liu saw him retreat, a hint of displeasure flashed on his face, but he didn't make any more moves to get close to him.

What happened to Erniang today? Wu Ming had a cloud of doubts in his heart, in the past, Liu's relationship with him was neither good nor bad, but he would never be so close to him, not to mention this kind of intentional approach, usually when the two met Wu Ming saluted Liu, Liu's most replied "um", and there would be no extra words.

"Ming'er, Erniang has snubbed you all these years, and I feel ashamed, I don't know when you will come back when you go out to practice this time, Erniang misses you very much."

Liu's words were full of emotion, his cheeks were dyed red, and tears almost came out of his eyes, Wu Ming couldn't expose it when he saw this, so he had to comfort him in a low voice. Even if he was disdainful in his heart, he made a compassionate appearance on his face, and said that the mother should not miss the child...... When the two talked about their love, their eyes were full of tears, a picture of a mother and a son.

"Erniang, it's not too early, if there is nothing else important, the child will leave."

After pretending to act for a long time, Wu Ming was also a little tired, looking at the sun hanging high in the sky, he bent down and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Liu Shi took off a dark green jade plate from his belt and handed it to Wu Mingdao: "Ming'er, Erniang has nothing to help you, this jade plate is a middle-level magic weapon, engraved with the Taoist Tiangang sigil, you take it and take it with you." Although you can't practice and can't control your own magic weapons, if you encounter any danger, drop a drop of blood on the jade plaque, and it can help you fight back from the enemy. ”

Wu Ming was stunned for a moment, waved his hand again and again and refused to answer, not wanting Liu to just stuff the jade card into his arms.

If the Liu family is acting, this is also too realistic, the mid-level magic weapon is not ordinary, and the other party handed it over without blinking, which is even more unreal than a pie falling from the sky.

Wu Ming was really a little unbearable at this time, thinking that the second brother was practicing outside, and he hadn't returned home for too long, and the second mother's maternal love was overflowing, so it was transferred to himself?

Wu Ming saw that he really couldn't refuse, so he only took the jade plaque with a strange face, put it away closely, and finally bowed to the Liu family, and under her gaze, he slowly walked out of the gate of the main mansion and sat in the carriage prepared in the mansion.

The coachman sighed lightly and drove the carriage out of the entrance, and behind the car, the gate of the Wu Mansion slammed shut, locking the Liu family, who didn't know what they were thinking, and the servants who saw them off inside.

In the carriage, Feng Jingyu was dressed neatly in a dark blue straight jacket and wearing a scarf and hat, and had been waiting for Wu Ming for a long time. The two of them had an agreement three days ago that they would go to the Huayi Sword Sect together, and looking at the smiling appearance of this thing, Wu Ming knew that there would be no loneliness on the road.

The carriage kicked up earthy brown dust all the way, and in about half an hour, it went out of the city gate.

Wu Ming lifted the curtain halfway through, and looked with great interest at the scene outside the car that was not fast or slow, although Kyoto was prosperous, he had almost read it in his two lifetimes combined: towers, pavilions, painting boats, Taoist temples, Zen temples...... His footprints can be found everywhere. There he once pushed cups and set lamps with his friends, and here he sang with singers; He also entered the Taoist temple to ask for a sign to worship God for the imperial examination, and he also stole a boat from Qinghu for half a day......

Two lives as a human being, with a short life span and no heavy authority, but also experienced wind and rain, which can be described as tribulation.

In his previous life, he was forced to flee the capital because of the disaster at home, but in this life, it was his own choice, and he embarked on the path of cultivation with a high sky and a wide sea.

The white bones in his brain trembled slightly, and a cool feeling flowed through his body, Wu Ming seemed to have realized something, and he seemed to be just stunned. The bustling pavilions gradually disappeared in his mind, replaced by the endless starry sky, the empty black is so quiet, containing infinite mysteries, let him involuntarily walk forward, in the confusion to explore the unknown world......

Feng Jingyu beside him looked at him in surprise, since his "uncle" got in the car, his whole person's momentum has changed, but he is just sitting there normally, and his whole body is wafting with a dusty breath, feeling that people are about to fly away if they fall lightly, like an immortal who is about to soar. What puzzled him even more was Wu Ming's eyes, the occasional sense of vicissitudes that a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy could have, and a half-hundred-year-old man in his fifties would not necessarily have such a look to see through the world.

"What is Uncle thinking? Don't want to practice and go crazy, you want to become a Buddha on the ground, right? ”

Feng Jingyu stretched out his hand and patted Wu Ming the shoulder, and immediately beat Wu Ming to his senses. Wu Ming couldn't laugh or cry, he knew that he must have entered some mysterious realm just now, just like the ancients said "the unity of heaven and man" and "great enlightenment", he didn't think that he had not stayed in the realm for long, he was woken up by Feng Jingyu's slap, and he didn't realize anything at all.

In the end, I can't cultivate, and if I enter any wonderful realm, I can only improve my mind.

With a long sigh in his heart, Wu Ming closed the curtain and said: "I just thought, this time I go to the sect to practice, it can be said that it will come naturally, go with the flow, and I should practice penance for three years to live up to this great time." ”

"Three years?" Feng Jingyu wondered, "Isn't it only for three months?" ”

In the past, Wu Ming once mentioned to him that he would symbolically practice for two or three months, and then he would go home. Now that he has encountered Mei Sheng's matter, in Feng Jingyu's opinion, it would be good for Wu Ming to return to the sect and insist on practicing for three months, but now he actually wants to really cultivate for three years?

"Uncle, you've been cultivating the Dao here for three years, so you can't take the imperial examination?" Feng Jingyu asked.

"Naturally, you have to take the test, and you can't do it right to study and practice."

Wu Ming smiled and meditated in his heart: "Maybe you won't be able to practice for three years at all." ”

According to the progress of the previous life, three years later, two years and nine months to be precise, the Wu family will be ordered to be destroyed. At that time, if Wu Ming failed to prevent this from happening, he would only have to flee from the Southern Heaven Dynasty like in his previous life, and naturally it would be impossible to cultivate for three years.

"Besides, I can't say that I will come back next year to get married."

Thinking of his fiancée with extraordinary means, Wu Ming sighed again, this marriage can't be avoided, but he naturally can't be a living widower in this life like in his previous life, so he has to think of some ways to solve it. In this way, there will be a lot of troubles in the future.
