Chapter 20: Dilemma
Yang Yun sat down, and Gongsun Jian suddenly asked in a weird tone of yin and yang: "Su County Order, is your county holding a celebration banquet today, or a reception banquet set up to welcome the Qinghe Daoist?" ”
Su Xianling said embarrassedly: "Today is not only a celebration banquet, but also a reception banquet for the Qinghe Daoist to come to Shifang, regardless of each other...... Come on, come on, the official didn't arrange it properly, and he punished himself with three cups first. ”
Gongsun Jian said again: "Some people know that they are going to hold a banquet today, but they still come so late, do they mean not to give me face?" ”
At this time, Su County Commander didn't know how to answer.
The green crane next to him was very free, twisting his beard under his chin and said: "It seems inappropriate for Mr. Gongsun to say this, after all, this little Taoist friend has assumed the responsibility of defending the city against the enemy, and state affairs are the priority." ”
Su Xian Ling said with a smile: "What the Immortal Chief said is extremely ...... The official has sent people to urge him many times before, and the little real person insists on finishing the matter before coming over, so loyal to state affairs, admirable! ”
"Hmph."
Gongsun Jian finally set his eyes on Yang Yun and sneered, "I'm afraid that some people will use chicken feathers as arrows...... When is doing things not doing things? Do you have to rush this moment? Let so many people wait, why do you have to punish yourself with three cups, right? ”
Yang Yun became the target of public criticism for a while, and he still said calmly: "The immortal family charm is not trivial, and there is a fixed number of daily productions, so I really don't dare to drag it out...... In addition, I am not good at drinking, "Song of Persuasion" Yun "chaotic sex is mostly due to indulgence", "Taiping Sutra" said that "mortals drink alcohol to make drunk", "damage yang essence", so the master strictly ordered that before the completion of cultivation, not to drink. ”
Qinghe was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "Taoism has never had a rule for abstaining from alcohol, and "Lao Jun Xiang'er Ring" has three lines in the upper, middle and lower lines, three in each line, a total of nine, all of which have no rules for abstaining from drinking. ”
Gongsun Jian sneered when he heard this, "It's just that someone doesn't give everyone face, why do you still make so many excuses?" ”
Su Xian Ling took the initiative to take responsibility again, picked up the wine jug and poured it into the wine glass in front of him, actually raised the glass, and said peacefully: "Since the little real person can't drink, the official will punish himself for three glasses on behalf of the little real person." ”
Gongsun glanced at him: "Su County's order first punished himself, and then punished others, I'm afraid that it won't be long before he gets drunk, but you are the main escort of today's banquet, how can you get drunk earlier than others?" ”
Lieutenant Hu hurriedly came over to relieve the siege for Su County, "Then let the subordinate officer receive the punishment on his behalf." ”
Gongsun Jian turned his head and looked angrily: "What is the matter with County Lieutenant Hu here?" ”
Hu County Lieutenant was very unhappy, he was an official officially appointed by the imperial court after all, but he was called by a curtain official like Gongsun Jian, and he felt a little unbearable. But in the end, the other party represents the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu, the so-called seven-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, and if he rashly confesses, it is harmful and useless, so he immediately retracted his hand, sat down and bowed his head and said nothing.
Yang Yunxin said: "No wonder Su County Ling and Hu County Lieutenant are so embarrassed, feeling that this Gongsun Jian is a dog, see who bites whom." ”
Yang Yun took the initiative to break the situation: "Today is to welcome the Qinghe Daoist and set up a banquet, the Qinghe Road has been a long way to come and the journey is tiring, drinking and hurting the body, and now the Shifang County police signal is still not lifted, Nanban doesn't know when it will come back, a county parent official is drunk like mud, what should I do if I am unexpected?" Qinghe Dao Chief, you said yes, right? ”
Yang Yun's words were-for-tat, and polite and courteous, so that Gongsun Jian couldn't breathe out.
When Su Xian Ling heard this, he hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, military affairs are in the body, and there is no room for the slightest negligence." That is, today's Qinghe Daoist and Mr. Gongsun are here, otherwise the official will never drink, and he can do what he can today. ”
Hu Xianwei changed the topic: "I still want to learn the great powers of the Qinghe Daoist, how can I do it when I am drunk?" Why don't you take advantage of the boom and ask Daoist Qinghe to show us the Dao Fa? ”
"It's reasonable and reasonable, I waited for the early days to hear the immortal fame, and I wanted to appreciate the immortal method up close."
The gentry present had a stake in the interests of Su County Ling and Hu County Lieutenant, after all, they relied on the local government in many places in the future, and now Hu County Lieutenant stood up and called for it, and they naturally helped.
Gongsun Jian's face turned dark: "What is your identity?" Also qualified to receive the Immortal Law? ”
Qinghe Daoist stood up, waved his hand to smooth the hem of his robe, and said with a pleasant face: "Mr. Gongsun is not right to say this, all the people present are local figures with heads and faces...... Come, bring the robes of the poor way. ”
Qinghe Taoist people are very fond of showing off their "skills", especially in this kind of place where celebrities gather, once the "performance" is successful, it will immediately cause a sensational effect, one spread ten, ten to hundred, or it will not be long before it will spread all over the place, bringing countless believers to him, and naturally there will be a lot of money.
Therefore, this kind of stage that can show "miracles" has always been cherished by Qinghe Dao people.
As the words fell, two little Taoist priests with red lips and white teeth came over and put on a wide Taoist robe for the Qinghe Daoist, covering the one he was originally wearing.
Yang Yun pondered: "There must be something strange about this robe, just like the magic clothes of later generations, with various pockets and mechanisms set up in it. ”
Yang Yun showed a clear smile on his face, and then carefully observed the every move of the Qinghe Daoist.
The Qinghe Daoist didn't know that he was being targeted by Yang Yun, and suddenly pointed at the ancient magic sword in the arms of one of the little Taoist priests, and shouted: "Look at the sword!" ”
Everyone held their breath and condensed, thinking that the Qinghe Daoist would come up with the method of "taking things from the air" and take the magic sword in his hand, but the strange thing was that after the Qinghe Daoist shouted this sentence, the magic sword did not move for a long time.
Yang Yun controlled his spiritual power, and cut off the silk thread used by the Qinghe Daoist to show the means of "telekinesis", and the Qinghe Daoist's first move, the "Immortal Method", was not effective.
The guests present didn't know what the hell was going on with the Blue Crane Daoist, but when they heard him say, "Look at the sword", everyone turned their heads sideways at the antique magic sword.
Seeing that the magic sword did not move, the guests present did not know what to do and glanced at each other.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gongsun Jian hurriedly asked, "Dao Chief, but what is the reputation of this sword?" ”
Qinghe Daoist noticed that the silk thread tied to his wrist was broken, and he quickly strained, so he immediately walked over and personally pulled out the magic sword, but it was a peachwood sword, and he introduced it calmly: "Poor Dao just wants you to see this sword, this is the fairy sword." ”
"Oh!?"
The people present didn't know that there was a "technical error" just now, and they all stared curiously at the sword in the hand of the Qinghe Dao Chief.
In order to show that he really wanted to introduce the origin of this sword just now, the Qinghe Dao Leader immediately made a gesture in the air, made a volley slashing action, and said: "This sword is made of thousand-year-old peach wood that has been struck by lightning, and it contains the righteousness of the Heavenly Dao to the Yang Dynasty. ”
Gongsun simply praised: "Powerful, powerful, such a good sword, the world can see each other, that is also the blessing of cultivation in the previous life." ”
Someone next to him helped: "I felt the cold from afar, and it was really a fairy sword." ”
When Yang Yun heard this, he frowned: "Qinghe didn't dare to use a metal sword at all in order to play tricks and make it easy to operate, it was just an ordinary peachwood sword, but he was blown to the sky, it was just bragging and not making drafts." ”
Gongsun Jian smiled and said, "Dao Chief, why don't you use this sword to show your immortal method and feed the virtuous people here?" ”
"Of course."
Of course, Qinghe Daoist didn't know that what happened just now was related to Yang Yun, so he just thought it was a performance accident, so he continued to perform step by step, "Light the Changming candle!" Then lay the appearance symbol. ”
Qinghe gave an order, and a little Taoist boy next to him immediately came over to light two candlesticks on the offering table next to the room, and someone spread a piece of white paper on the table.
Qinghe Dao Chang played the peach wood sword in his hand, from slow to fast, with a kind of swordsmanship style in the tiger and tiger style, while dancing the peach wood sword, while pretending to shout: "Heaven and earth are right, vicissitudes of reincarnation, evil things, harm to the world, ghosts and demons come out, a sword determines the world!" ”
When he said "Ding Qiankun", he suddenly pointed the long sword in his hand at the two candlesticks from afar, and there was a great momentum of extinguishing the lights with sword qi from a distance.
Everyone followed the point of his long sword, and their eyes gathered on the two bright candlesticks, but unfortunately the candle flame on the candlesticks was extinguished, and it didn't move at all, and there was no imaginary picture of being extinguished by the "sword qi" breaking through the air.
