The night was already dark, and the master and apprentice walked up the rugged mountain road, Bu'an followed behind Tu Yao, and from time to time he could smell the faint fragrance of flowers on her body.

Thinking about the cold eyes that the old thief of Hongxuan threw before leaving, Bu An felt itchy teeth, and thought: If you can shine on that fat face and slap a sturdy slap, it will definitely be very cool.

The evil moon was still hanging in the sky, but seeing Tu Yao's slender figure in a plain white dress close at hand, the strange aura from the blood-colored moonlight seemed to have been reduced by half because of her.

Every appearance of this beautiful master in front of him was accompanied by a move that made Bu'an feel surprised and secretly admired, but this time, he was a little confused.

Since Tu Yao wanted to take out his identity as a master to make decisions for himself, why did he suddenly compromise in the middle of speaking?

The stone steps of the mountain road are steep, but Tu Yao's steps are extremely relaxed, and it is the ability of a cultivator. Bu An looked a little fascinated, and seeing that she had not spoken, he finally asked out of breath: "Master, what is the origin of that Lord Yu?"

Tu Yao stepped up the stone steps and replied lightly: "Inspectorate, Zuo Governor Imperial Envoy Yu Zhaozhong." ”

Bu An was puzzled: "How big is that?"

Tu Yao turned his head to look at him, as if he felt a little curious, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid there are not many people in the world who don't know Yu Zhaozhong." ”

Bu An spread his hands and laughed at himself: "I don't even know half of the Analects, so Yu Zhaozhong can't be more famous than the Analects, right?"

"That's really hard to say...... Tu Yao smiled helplessly, and explained as he walked: "He was originally a warrior monk guard beside the emperor, and at the age of fifty-two, he was ordered to return to the world, and the emperor asked him what his family name was, and he said, 'I only know the loyal monarch, but I don't know that there is a family', so the first emperor gave the name Yu Zhaozhong." ”

Bu An'an thought, this person is shameless enough, he must be a powerful character.

Tu Yao continued: "Yu Zhaozhong's official residence is the second grade, and he is called the three heroes of Bianjing with Lehu Yangzong and Yanqing Guanruo Puzi......"

Bu An stopped and exclaimed, "He's also a cultivator?"

Tu Yao said leisurely: "The three heroes of Bianjing are all cultivators, they are a monk and a Confucian, and the three of them are in the same realm. ”

Bu An struggled to keep up with Tu Yao, while pondering, the realm of the national scholar is one order higher than the Great Confucian, and the peerless national scholar is one order higher than the national scholar, but he is a little scholar who is two orders worse than the Great Confucian, if he goes to this kind of strong man's house and is a "little daughter-in-law" who follows the rules, it is no different from going to prison, it is better to follow this person's example, first be a monk and then return to the vulgar, and save the country by curve.

Tu Yao said again: "Daliang officialdom is known for the dispute between Confucianism and Confucianism, Yu Zhaozhong is the backbone of the Confucianism, you are in Confucianism, but you have a marriage contract with the Yu family, sandwiched in the middle, the situation is delicate, if you really enter the past after three years, I am afraid that both sides will not please you...... It's a pity that the college is in decline and can't support you. ”

Bu An found that the backer he had worked so hard to find was not very reliable, and he was inevitably a little depressed, so he asked casually: "What is the flattering party?"

Since he didn't even know Yu Zhaozhong, it was not strange that he didn't know about the Mei Party, Tu Yao was not surprised, and explained as he walked: "When Liang took the old dynasty, the Confucian sect in the world made meritorious contributions to Longxing, so Emperor Taizong once set the rule of 'monarch and Confucian co-governance'. The emperors of the Great Liang dynasties did not dare to disobey the ancestral teachings, but they wanted to weaken the influence of Confucianism, so they promoted eunuchs inside and traitors outside, which was called flattering the party. ”

Tu Yao paused, and didn't forget to remind: "The flattering party is not a good word, they call themselves the imperial party, don't say it outside." ”

Bu An nodded and said: "I can't figure out one thing, Yu Zhaozhong is still a layman, and he also married a wife and has children, why can the Buddhist cultivation on his body still be retained?

He asked this because he wanted to find a way out for himself, otherwise he would return to the vulgar after being a monk for a few years, and the Buddhist cultivation he had worked so hard to learn would be abolished, wouldn't it be all in vain.

Tu Yao explained: "The practice methods in the world are different, Yu Zhaozhong was a monk in Bianjing Huguo Temple when he was a child, and he was a tantric disciple, and he paid attention to empowerment and tantric practice...... I can't talk to you about the secrets. ”

Bu An said "oh", thinking that after all, it is still the rules of Confucianism, and all the heroes in the sky are also the teaching directors, which is too depressing for human nature, in comparison, it is not bad to be a monk for a few years.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Tu Yao thought that he was depressed in his heart, and sighed lightly: "I know you don't want to get involved, but since there is a three-year period, there is still a way to think about it." ”

Bu An blurted out: "I know, if you can hide, you can hide, if you can't hide, you will shave your home, and you will become a monk first." No matter how powerful Yu Zhaozhong is, he can't arrest me from the monk's temple to get married, right?"

Tu Yao turned around suddenly, his eyes were still calm, but he had a calm power, and frowned slightly: "If you want to hide, you can't hide, only let him avoid you." ”

Bu An looked surprised: "Let him hide from me, why does he want to hide from me?"

Tu Yao said: "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, Yu Zhaozhong was with the emperor in his early years, and he has developed a cautious temperament. If you deviate from the scriptures, he is afraid that his notoriety will spread to the emperor, and he will inevitably avoid you; if you are famous all over the world, he will also know that the small temple cannot accommodate the big Buddha, and he will not dare to recruit you into the army. ”

Bu An nodded, feeling that it was very reasonable, these two roads can indeed be avoided and entered, compared with the two, fame seems to be more enjoyable, so he scratched his head and asked: "How can I be considered famous?"

Tu Yao muttered: "If you can break through two realms in a row with poetry in three years, you can naturally count it." But if there is only a poetic talent, even if there are often amazing works, in the end it is just to make wedding dresses for others, and it is not famous. ”

Breaking through two realms in a row within three years means that before the age of nineteen, you must cross the dual realms of Wendao and Mingde, enter the realm of qi cultivation, and be promoted to Confucianism. Bu An frowned and said: "Master, he was promoted to Confucianism at the age of nineteen, and there was only Situ Yan in the world, right?"

"Yes, Situ Yan is the only one in the world......" Tu Yao looked at the mountains under the blood moon, and a rare sorrow flashed on his face.

Seeing this look in Bu'an's eyes, she vaguely guessed that she should have remembered Situ Yan, the Confucian genius who was already famous all over the world, before she went to Bianjing Lehu Academy, she and Tu Yao must have been the golden boy and jade girl in the mountain this day.

As soon as he thought of this, Bu An faintly felt a little suffocated in his chest, he covered up this emotion, and grinned: "Thank you, Master, I know what to do." As he spoke, he walked in the direction of Guanhailing without looking back.

It wasn't until his back disappeared on the mountain path shrouded in blood-colored moonlight that Tu Yao withdrew his gaze from the mountains and sighed softly.
