Chapter 219: Self-inflicted humiliation
Yang Yun refused to introduce these Taoist priests to King Shou, and Liu Hengzheng would not ask more.
Taoist priests are already competing with each other, if Yang Yun introduces these Taoist priests to King Shou, then how will Yang Yun himself mix in the future?
Therefore, Liu Hengzheng did not ask the reason, and continued to invite all the Taoist priests to drink, and no one mentioned the matter of seeing King Shou during the banquet.
Towards the end of the banquet, Liu Hengzheng said: "Today, the official invited you to come, so he did not invite his colleagues in the officialdom to attend the meeting. ”
Liu Hengzheng gave gifts, no matter how many they were, they would gladly accept them to the Taoist priests present.
After a short time, the banquet officially ended.
Liu Hengzheng did not send off the guests in person, he still had official business to do that day, got up to say goodbye, and Sun Xi beckoned the Taoist priests to leave.
"Little Heavenly Master, you go slowly, my family's Mansion Yin has another number of gifts in the side courtyard, why don't you move first?"
Sun Xi had a flattering smile on his face, probably meaning that he would not let Yang Yun be in the company of the group of Taoist priests in front of him.
At the banquet, Yang Yun was beckoned to the main table to sit down, which already reflected Liu Hengzheng's attention to Yang Yun, and the gifts given to Yang Yun after the banquet were of course different from those of other families.
Yang Yun saw Xia Shifang and the others staring at him, probably with the intention of looking for trouble after the dismissal, he didn't want to go out of the mansion with this group of people, even if he was not afraid of challenges, but more things are better than less, and the most important thing is to go back safely.
"Please lead the way."
Yang Yun smiled and accepted Sun Xi's offer.
So Yang Yun took Wu Yuan and Wang Lian, under the guidance of Sun Xi, back to the previous courtyard, and the official of the government had carried two boxes over.
……
……
Yang Yun didn't open the box in public.
Sun Xi's meaning was to let Yang Yun wait in the courtyard for a while before leaving, and offered to send someone to help transport the two boxes back to the house.
Yang Yun smiled and declined: "This gift can't be accepted in the future, you tell Liu Fuyin, his kindness is in his heart." ”
Sun Xi said anxiously: "Little Heavenly Master, aren't you embarrassing?" I'm just acting on orders, little Heavenly Master, don't let you be unable to deal with my family Yin in Xia. ”
Wu Yuan also persuaded: "Since it is Liu Fuyin's kindness, the master should not refuse." ”
"Okay then."
Yang Yun's expression was calm, and he said, "I didn't bring a servant here, I bothered Mr. Sun to find someone to help send it to the house, thank you." ”
"Well said, well said, this is as it should be."
Sun Xi was immediately relieved, and a smile appeared on his face - as long as Yang Yun did not refuse, it was good news that he could complete the task.
Almost after the tea time, Sun Xi expected that those Taoist priests were almost far away, so he was about to send Yang Yun out, and ordered the messenger to carry the box and follow him to the front of the mansion.
When I arrived at the main gate of the government, the carriages that had been parked here had become sparse, and from time to time there were carriages carrying people away.
The government also specially prepared a carriage to help Yang Yun transport the box back.
Yang Yun glanced into the distance, but saw that Xia Shifang and the others did not leave, but they did not greet them, but a strange-looking Taoist priest walked over with a letter in his hand.
"Who is you? Don't make a mistake! ”
In front of the yamen, Sun Xi couldn't just let people come to Yang Yun for trouble.
The man said respectfully, "The villain was instructed by an immortal chief to come and deliver a letter to this little leader. ”
Sun Xi frowned and looked at Yang Yun, probably asking Yang Yun if he knew the person in front of him.
Yang Yun nodded and asked the messenger to hand over the letter, and the messenger added: "That immortal chief said that he would wait for you to come in person, and he didn't tell the villain anything else...... The villain retired. ”
"Wait."
Sun Xi stopped the messenger and asked in an unkind tone, "How do you know who you want to send the letter to?" Who asked you to deliver the letter? ”
Sun Xi was very shrewd, and he actually thought of seeking truth first, and when he turned around, Liu Hengzheng could answer when he asked.
The sender was at a loss for clarity.
Yang Yun asked, "What did the person who asked you to deliver the letter say?" ”
Only then did the messenger find the direction of the answer, and tried his best to recall: "The man was in front of the inn across the street, and said that he asked me to walk slowly from that side, and I would not delay for a moment, and I would go directly to the front of the government office, and I would see a Taoist who came out of the gate...... He especially described the age of the Taoist, just come up and deliver the letter...... The villain just walked over, and saw a lot of Taoist chiefs along the way, and was a little hesitant, and then he saw the little Taoist you come out of the yamen, and decided that it was the object that the immortal chief was looking for......"
Sun Xi frowned: "So it's mysterious, I don't know who is pretending to be a ghost?" ”
Yang Yun listened to it but thought it was very interesting, if the messenger didn't lie, then the letter writer could pinch and calculate, and he could be regarded as a number one.
He opened the letter in his hand, and it was empty, not a word was spoken.
Sun Xi's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw this situation, grabbed the messenger back, and asked sharply: "Tell me honestly, does anyone want to trouble the little heavenly master?" ”
As he spoke, he also glared at Xia Shifang and the others who had not left in the distance, and probably felt that it was likely that Xia Shifang and the others were playing ghosts.
"Absolutely not, borrowing a hundred guts from the villain, and not daring to go to the door of the government to make trouble, the villain just took three cents to deliver the letter......"
The messenger was so nervous that he almost knelt down and kowtowed.
Yang Yun smiled and said: "Mr. Sun doesn't have to embarrass this little brother, I think he is right, I probably understand this letter, since he can understand when I will come out of the palace, he can naturally calculate which way I go, and I will meet ...... He just gave me advance notice and told me that someone wanted to see me, and when he wanted to show up, he would naturally show up. ”
Sun Xi asked in surprise: "There is such an invitation to meet?" ”
Yang Yun said with a smile: "People outside the party, the style of doing things is naturally very good at guessing, Mr. Sun doesn't have to send it, he will say goodbye." ”
Sun Xi still wanted to ask more things, and he could report to Liu Hengzheng when he went back, after all, this was also a strange story.
But the problem is that neither the messenger nor Yang Yun knows who the person who sent the letter is, nor where is the person.
Seeing that Yang Yun was leaving, Sun Xi could only salute him, he was just a staff member of Fu Yin, and there was no need to make extraneous branches.
……
……
Yang Yun took Wu Yuan and Wang Lian to go back.
didn't take a few steps, Xia Shifang and the others really stopped them, and at this time they had reached the corner of the street, and Sun Xi had turned back to the gate of the mansion.
It seems that Sun Xi's duty is only to ensure Yang Yun's safety in the government and the surrounding areas, and when Yang Yun comes to drive behind for a while, it has nothing to do with him if he encounters anything again.
And Sun Xi understands that this group of people really wants to find trouble with Wuzun's real master and apprentice, and they will always come to the door to cause trouble, after all, Yang Yun opened a restaurant there, and the monk can't run the temple, so sooner or later he will have to deal with the trouble and come to the door. Since Liu Hengzheng did not order to send people to Yang Yun's mansion and restaurant to block the Taoist priest from causing trouble, then his scope of responsibility was limited to inside and outside the mansion.
"Don't go, you little Taoist priest."
Xia Shifang greeted him with murderous spirits, and this time he seemed to take the initiative.
I couldn't fight with you in the government just now, but now that it's out, who can still restrict us from making trouble with you?
Yang Yun understands that there is no way to avoid it.
Since this is the case, it is better to solve the problem here than to go to the Drunken Immortal Building to delay business.
"Is there something wrong with Daoist Xia?" Yang Yun was calm and relaxed, and he didn't mind that there were seven or eight people on the other side, and there were only three of them on his side plus two female apprentices.
He understood that even if he didn't make a move, the two young ladies in the back would be able to make this group of people drink a pot.
Wu Yuan has superpowers, and he has truly seen Wu Yuan's ability in the Shudi Dharma ring, and his ability to change the shape and nature of matter is second to none among several female apprentices. As for Wang Lian, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she has been on the battlefield, and it is said that she once rode a horse to kill in and out of the Tubo army, harvesting countless heads.
Xia Shifang ignored the image of his predecessors, after all, he had torn his face at the banquet, and said almost angrily: "I can't deal with you in the palace, but now that I'm outside, I can ask your Excellency about the real kung fu in your hands, right?" Don't say that the poor road bullies you as a junior, you make the first move. ”
Yang Yun thought to himself that it was really straightforward, saying that the fighting method was not verbose, as if he had the grace to let him take the lead, but the key question was that this was a fight? And the order of attack and defense?
"Let's do it."
Xia Shifang had already set up a posture, and the group of Taoist priests behind him stepped aside and formed a semicircle to prevent Yang Yun from escaping.
One-on-one, it seems that Xia Shifang cares about morality and doesn't directly greet people to rush up, but Yang Yun understands that this is not a solo fight at all, since Xia Shifang has brought a helper, if he really wants to fight, this group of people will definitely play some conspiracy tricks on the side, pulling strings, sprinkling powder, etc., it is very possible.
Playing magic always requires human cooperation.
Yang Yun sighed: "Daoist Xia is really persistent, Taoist friends should live in harmony, this is also the original intention of the imperial court to summon me to come to Luoyang to participate in the grand event. ”
"Less nonsense, no hands? If you don't do it again, Poor Road will be unkind to you. Xia Shifang took out the attitude of seeing the moves, and it was indeed not like he wanted to fight with Yang Yun, but to fight.
Yang Yun thought to himself, you really think of yourself as a martial arts master, will you fly off the wall or fly away? Or maybe it's a cow across the mountain?
"Since Xia Daoyou is obsessed, he has no choice but to sacrifice ugliness. Roar! ”
Yang Yun suddenly shouted, and the surrounding Taoist priests were cautious, for fear that Yang Yun would play some tricks.
But to the surprise of this group of people, Yang Yun didn't see anything abnormal on his side, and Xia Shifang took off in place without warning and flew directly into the air.
"Wow!"
"What's going on?"
"Wow wow!"
"Put me down!"
Xia Shifang couldn't help but scream again and again.
"Ah!!h
"This ......"
The group of helpers were dumbfounded, they looked at Yang Yun again, Yang Yun didn't make the slightest movement here, as if he just lifted Xia Shifang with his eyes.
Yang Yun didn't make a ruthless move at all, he just wanted Xia Shifang to suffer a little, that's all.
When Xia Shifang jumped to a height of about two zhang above the ground, his mental strength was discharged, and then Xia Shifang fell heavily to the ground.
"Puff ......"
Originally, in order to maintain the image of the fairy wind dao bones, Xia Shifang's body bones were slightly thin, and the bones were almost falling apart.
"It seems that Xia Daoyou is not in a state today, so it is better to change the time and make another move, lest someone say that I don't know the current affairs! Ladies and gentlemen, I take my leave. ”
Yang Yun took Wu Yuan and Wang Lian away.
