Chapter 185. The Secret History of the Chu Family
"Patriarch Tao Hongjing is the founder of the Maoshan Sect, and by chance, I obtained the inheritance of Patriarch Tao Hongjing, and now I am the head of the Maoshan Annex!" Li Rui said directly.
"Ahh As soon as Li Rui's words were finished, Chu Yougang and Song Mingqing both showed surprised expressions at the same time, as for Tangshan, he was already the third generation chief disciple of the Maoshan Courtyard, and Cheng Lixue also knew about this situation, so they were not surprised.
"The head of the Maoshan Courtyard?" After Chu Yougang heard the name of this Maoshan Annex, he suddenly felt a little abnormal, and when he knew that Li Rui was the head of the Maoshan Courtyard, his expression suddenly changed again.
"Yes!" Li Rui didn't say that there are only two people in the current Maoshan Courtyard, he and Tangshan, of course, there is also Tang Lie who has not worshiped the ancestral master.
"Are you going to ...... That one...... You know what I'm talking about, don't you? Chu Yougang suddenly asked again.
"Is this what Governor Chu said?" Li Rui raised his hand and shook it in front of everyone, and suddenly a yellow talisman appeared in his hand, and the other hand shook again, and a long sword with black and purple appeared.
Chu Yougang watched Li Rui's actions with his own eyes, the talisman was a piece of paper, and it was easy to hide it anywhere on his body, but the long sword was about a meter long, and the distance between the two was so close, he didn't find that Li Rui could hide such a sword at all.
"Ah, do you really know Taoism?" Chu Yougang's face suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"Some!" Li Rui was not modest, but replied with great certainty.
"I didn't expect that there would really be people like you!" Chu Yougang said excitedly again.
"Could it be that Governor Chu has heard of people like us?" Li Rui suddenly became interested in what Chu Yougang said.
"That's what the old man told me." A look of memory suddenly appeared on Chu Yougang's face.
"Governor Chu, why don't we sit and talk, my junior brother has top-notch tea in his hand!" This time. Song Mingqing saw that Chu Yougang was about to open the chatterbox, so he hurriedly said.
"Yes, Governor Chu, let's sit here and talk!" Li Rui also hurriedly let the governor of Chu inside.
Further inside is the appearance of the study, a large antique mahogany desk. On both sides of the desk are floor-to-ceiling bookshelves that lead to the roof, and the shelves are filled with books. A small number of these books were left by the previous owner of the house, and most of them were purchased by Li Rui.
Among these books, there are most medical books and Taoist classics, and there are also many books such as Zhou Yi, I Ching, and Bagua. Of course, Li Rui also has a lot of books on professional garden design. Anyway, in a word, there are a lot of books in it.
On the wall behind the desk, there are some paintings and calligraphy. These are all written by Li Rui when he is usually fine, and the one hanging in the middle is a big "Dao", which is written very charmingly, and Tang Shan and Cheng Lixue were almost stunned when they stood there.
Next to the bookshelf on the right, there is also a strangely shaped carved coffee table and six tree stools. On the coffee table, there is a complete set of tea sets such as a sea of tea and a charcoal stove, and on the other side is a pair of mahogany circle chairs.
The whole study looks a little compact, but Li Rui can't help it. This house does not count the living room and dining room, there are three rooms in total, and one is Li Rui's bedroom. One was originally used to store wine, but later Li Rui transferred all the wine to the Qiankun bag, and that room was transformed into a guest room, where Chu Peiting and Li Na lived some time ago when they helped him take care of the puppy. The rest is this one.
However, everyone obviously did not disdain the furnishings of this study because they were a little nondescript, but looked at it with great interest.
Among them, Chu Yougang looked most carefully at the paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall, and at first he thought that these paintings and calligraphy might be prints of some famous paintings and calligraphy. However, he soon discovered that these paintings and calligraphy were all written by himself, which made him even more interested. But when he saw the last signature of those calligraphy and painting works, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Li Rui. Why are these paintings and calligraphy neither signed nor sealed? Chu Yougang finally couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Chu Yougang's inquiry at this time, Li Rui knew that it was time for him to show his face again, and he suddenly secretly rejoiced in his heart, but on the surface, he showed a calm and breezy look and said, "Governor Chu, these are my casual graffiti works, and they are still a little immature, so I didn't dare to ask the title!" ”
"You actually wrote it? Li Rui, you really gave me a big surprise! Chu Yougang couldn't help but sigh again.
He was able to appear in front of Li Rui this time, and he really wanted to investigate Li Rui, to see what kind of ability this Li Rui had, and he could actually get the love of his baby daughter.
Of course, he was able to personally come forward to inspect Li Rui, and he already had some understanding of Li Rui, knowing that Li Rui was very talented, had good calligraphy, superb medical skills, and was able to show righteousness and courage to show that his character was also passing, if there were no such things, Li Rui estimated that he would not even be qualified to enter the inspection, and he would have been vetoed by Chu Yougang.
But Chu Yougang didn't expect that Li Rui's appearance was even better than he imagined, not to mention anything else, when he was in the affiliated hospital before, he had already heard the title of "Doctor Li".
Then everyone sat down on the root carved coffee table, and Tang Lie began the tea ceremony performance, Tang Lie was specially called in by Li Rui to make tea for everyone.
The immortal tea once again made Chu Yougang amazed, and Cheng Lixue was already a little numb at this time, what he heard and saw here today, and the immortal tea he drank now were all things he had never experienced when he lived so old, and he even seemed to feel that he had lived for so much in vain.
Drinking a cup of fairy tea calmed everyone's feelings, and no one spoke at this time, enjoying this extremely comfortable feeling.
"That's what happened to my old man when he was young!" And in this feeling, Chu Yougang also slowly began to tell a secret history of the Chu family.
"My hometown is in the Northeast, there are good fields and manors, and it is also a wealthy family in the local area, during the war, the old man sold all his property without hesitation, bought a batch of guns and ammunition, and pulled up a team to resist foreign invaders!"
"At that time, the invaders were stronger than us in terms of weapons and equipment, and the team that the old man had just pulled up was broken up the first time he went to the battlefield, and the old man was also lost in the mountains and forests!"
"At that time, for three days and three nights, the old man did not go out of the mountains and forests, it was winter at that time, and there was no food to be found in the mountains and forests, the old man was hungry and frozen, and finally he couldn't hold on and fell into a coma."
"And when he woke up, he found that he was actually in a Taoist temple!" (To be continued)
ps: Lao Li's hands are so sore that they are numb. However, there is a belief that supports Lao Li, and I can no longer disappoint readers, and I will do my best to make up for the updates I owe to everyone. Now I'll refuel myself, Lao Li, come on, update. I also hope that everyone will see that Lao Li works so hard and gives Lao Li a monthly pass. R655
