Chapter 148: Conspiracy Theories
Wu Yuan was very impatient with the cumbersome entertainment, and under the maverick, he got up and wanted to leave.
Li Xia and the others hurriedly stayed.
Wu Yuan frowned and said: "There are other things in the poor road today, let's discuss it later." ”
Gongzi surnamed Sun said: "Even the choice of the face saint has not been decided, is it too hasty for the Taoist to go like this?" Why don't you go to the inner hall and talk about it? ”
Originally, it was just a step-by-step acting, but at this critical juncture, it was no longer hidden, and it was tantamount to making a decision in private, and no longer pretending to be selected.
Wu Yuan looked regretful, shook his head and said: "Discussing the Tao with the saint, this is not an ordinary man and a layman, but he is forced to attend if he is not good, once the question raised by the saint cannot be answered, it is afraid that it will leave a disaster, and it should not be forced." ”
She still insisted on walking towards the door.
Li Xia and the others could not be retained, so they could only leave the table to say goodbye.
Wu Yuan had already walked to the door of the hall, and suddenly seemed to realize something, turned around, and his eyes fell on Yang Yun, who was trying to turn his head, and his eyes instantly showed a look of incomprehension and worry.
"Daochang Wu has changed his mind?"
Gongzi surnamed Sun hurriedly asked.
Wu Yuan didn't answer, and under everyone's eyes, he walked up to Yang Yun, frowned and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
The onlookers didn't understand for a while.
Wu Yuan acted too unusually, incompatible with the atmosphere of the banquet, and spoke and acted with a touch of coldness and alienation, but because the host of the banquet was respectful to him, no one dared to say anything.
Now Wu Yuan suddenly walked in front of a young student who had never shown his face before attending the meeting, showing the attitude of an old acquaintance, which was even more incomprehensible.
"I don't know if this is ......"
Li Xia thought that Wu Yuan was greeting Gai Xiong, he had just competed with Gai Xiong, and was about to be introduced, but found that Wu Yuan was facing Yang Yun, who was younger next to Gai Xiong, and he didn't know Yang Yun's identity without seeing the guest list.
There was a lot of discussion among the people present.
Who the hell is this?
How do you know a female Taoist priest?
Didn't you say that this female Taoist priest was from Chang'an?
She still has acquaintances in Luoyang?
Li Xia glanced at Gai Xiong, meaning to ask Gai Xiong to introduce him on his behalf.
Gai Xiong spread his hands helplessly, he was just looking for an opportunity to follow Yang Yun in to the banquet, and then behaved, completely unaware of Yang Yun's origin.
Yang Yun faced Wu Yuan's aggressiveness, treated it indifferently, smiled and nodded, and did not mean to talk in depth.
Wu Yuan was inhumane: "I know you, I heard earlier that you came to Luoyang from Shudi, and I also heard that Henan Yin invited you to meet the holy driver." ”
"Huh!?"
When everyone present heard this, they were all in an uproar.
Not only did I know that this young and unattractive young man was actually a guest of Yin Liu Hengzheng in Henan, and he was invited to meet the holy driver.
What a glory is this?
Li Xia asked curiously: "Daochang Wu, are you ...... with this son?"
Wu Yuandao: "He is not a son, he is a cultivator like me...... He is the eldest disciple of Wuzun Daochang, Wuzun Daoist is a famous Taoist in Shuzhong, and now he leads the Jiannan Daoist sect, and his strength is unfathomable. ”
If these words came out of Yang Yun's mouth, they would definitely not be accepted.
But now it is said from Wu Yuan's mouth, and no one else can not believe it.
Young people are not familiar with the world, and most of the people present don't know the name of Wuzun Zhenren, but when they heard Wu Yuan say this, they all feel that this Wuzun Taoist is very powerful, and he can actually be the leader of Shudi, where there are many Taoist celebrities, it is definitely not an ordinary person.
As for the identity of Yang Yunwu Venerable Dao Master's disciple, it was not so surprising.
There are many lay disciples in this world's well-known cultivators, as long as they are rich and powerful, it is not easy to worship who they want to be their masters?
Li Xia said with a smile: "It turned out to be a famous teacher and a high apprentice, and he was disrespectful and disrespectful. ”
It is said to be disrespectful, but the words are only polite, and there is no respect at all.
Yang Yun smiled and said, "I didn't come to the gathering today as a cultivator...... Wu Daoyou is too polite, aren't you leaving? It's good to go, not to send. ”
Wu Yuan smiled faintly and said, "Are you in such a hurry to drive me away?" I have a lot of things to ask you...... Can't you just talk about it privately? ”
When the young talents and celebrities of the onlookers heard this, they didn't mention how awkward they were.
Originally, as a party attended by young people in Luoyang, the guests who greeted the princess should be selected with talent, temperament and appearance, but a female Taoist priest came for no reason to steal the limelight.
That's not all, this female Taoist priest simply treats the banquet as her own back garden, she can come and go whenever she wants, and she talks with old acquaintances arbitrarily, completely ignoring the occasion, and simply treats the young men and women in Luoyang as nothing.
Hateful! Annoying!
But Li Xia and the other famous children of the family who were in charge did not have a seizure, and they couldn't squeak casually.
In the end, this female Taoist priest represents the face of the powerful in Chang'an, and has the support of the Daomen, and even has the qualifications to select the face saint.
Although many people find it unbelievable, does this young female Taoist priest really have this ability?
Yang Yun smiled: "Today's occasion, I'm afraid it's not appropriate...... Why don't we make an appointment to talk about it later? ”
Wu Yuan said coldly: "The Holy Lord is coming, why can't you talk about it now?" ”
Finally, someone next to him couldn't help it, and hid in the crowd and asked loudly: "You want to talk out, don't disturb our gathering here." ”
Wu Yuan frowned, turned around, and looked at the crowd, the speaker thought that he was hiding behind people and would not be found, who thought that Wu Yuan threw the dust in his hand, automatically turned in the air, and hit a person accurately.
What makes people feel very terrible is that the silk thread of the dust turned into a rope sleeve, which wrapped the neck of the person who spoke, and flew out directly.
"What? This is an official office, how unreasonable is that you actually made such a mistake! The man who was brought out shouted desperately, as if to arouse the hatred of the people at the scene.
It's a pity that no one helped him.
Everyone was shocked by Wu Yuan's hand.
Li Xia hurriedly pleaded: "Daoist Wu, the speaker has no intention, and I hope you will raise your noble hand." ”
Wu Yuan glanced at Li Xia, his mental strength was discharged, and the rope around the man's neck suddenly turned into silk threads, and then he returned to the appearance of dust, and flew back to Wu Yuan's hands directly.
The cheap-mouthed man covered his neck and withered to the ground, looking at Wu Yuan with a look full of fear.
In fact, the dust did not cause substantial harm to the man, but the psychological blow to him was very great, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and he couldn't figure out how he was caught and how he was dragged out.
Wu Yuan stared at Yang Yun with his eyes like torches, and his feet did not move, as if Yang Yun did not agree, she would not leave.
Li Xia's face was full of embarrassment: "This Dao Chief, since Dao Chief Wu and you are old acquaintances, if you have something, why don't you go to the courtyard outside to talk?" ”
Yang Yun saw that Wu Yuan was so persistent, and he understood that if he didn't give the other party an explanation, he would be condemned tonight.
"Hmm."
Yang Yun nodded.
He stood up and was about to leave with Wu Yuan, Yang Yuhuan ran over from the opposite seat and said with concern: "Shiro, be careful." ”
Yang Yuhuan was very anxious when she saw that a crazy woman was looking for trouble with her brother, and now she put all her hopes on her brother, and her concern was from the bottom of her heart.
Yang Yun smiled: "Sister, please relax, I'm just going out to say a few words with this Wu Daochang, and I'll be back soon." ”
As he spoke, he saluted the people present: "Everyone, forgive me, go out and talk to Daoist Wu in the next place, and then drink with you later to make amends." ”
……
……
Wu Yuan and Yang Yun came to the courtyard one after the other.
Li Xia and the others acquainted each other and left space for the two of them to be alone, so that they could talk privately.
When there was no one left and right, Yang Yuncai said dissatisfiedly: "Wu Daoyou, in front of so many famous children of the Luoyang family, what do you mean?" Sincerity makes people unable to get off the stage? ”
Wu Yuan glanced at Yang Yun: "What, do you still care what secular people think of you?" ”
Yang Yun said: "You don't care, but I can't, to put it bluntly, I'm just an ordinary man, and I can't be compared with a master like you." ”
Yang Yun was angry.
He was not afraid of tearing his face with Wu Yuan, originally the relationship between the two was friend or foe, and the struggle within the cultivators had not stopped for thousands of years, and it was not uncommon for them to face each other today.
Yang Yun had thought about treating Wu Yuan as a friend before, but he also knew that there would be conflicts of interest in the future, so it was better to make it clear in the morning.
You take your Yangguan Road, I take my single-plank bridge!
Wu Yuan changed his previous strong style, and clasped his fists and saluted: "I just want to talk to you, if you don't talk about it today, there will be no chance after the saint comes up." ”
"Say it."
Yang Yun waved his hand and made a gesture of please.
Wu Yuandao: "I heard about you and your master, and soon after I left, you also left Shudi, but through the help of Liu's mansion...... How could you let Miss Liu get involved in this? ”
Yang Yun had expected earlier that Liu Qingyuan's help to leave would not be concealed for long, and sure enough, after the defeat in the battle of Huiye, it was no longer a secret.
The Liu family is bent on tying the family interests with Wang Yu, but now the daughter-in-law of the Wang family, who was supposed to be good, secretly helped Yang Yun leave Shu, so Liu Qingyuan was charged with betraying the family and her husband's family.
Yang Yun finally understood why Wu Yuan was aggressive when he met him, probably because he was upset with Liu Qingyuan, and the meeting between the two was arranged by Liu Qingyuan at the beginning, which showed that Wu Yuan and Liu Qingyuan had a good relationship in private.
Yang Yundao: "The family teacher is still in Shudi, I am an insignificant little person, what does it matter if I leave or not?" Miss Liu, she has nothing to do with this matter......"
"What's the use of you saying that now?"
Wu Yuan said, "The younger sister of the Liu family is angry for her father and brother because of this incident, and now she can't even get out of the house, and I don't know what the consequences will be, if she is blamed by the family for this, you are really to blame." ”
Yang Yun looked at Wu Yuan: "Could it be that Wu Daoyou is here to seek justice?" ”
Wu Yuan realized that he was a little emotional, and after calming down a little, he said: "I want to ask you, is it true or false that the commander calculated in advance that the battle of Huiye City would be frustrated?" ”
Yang Yun said: "If you don't calculate it, things have happened, and it won't help." ”
Wu Yuan snorted lightly: "That's really calculated...... He was really scheming, he knew that he couldn't win this battle, and he didn't explain it to General Wang, which led to the death of thousands of soldiers, and only let you, the big disciple, come to Luoyang...... Is this an escape, or is there some other purpose? ”
Yang Yun heard from Wu Yuan's words full of conspiracy theories.
Yang Yun thought to himself: "The more she says this, the more it shows that she is full of awe for me and Wuzun. ”
Yang Yun said: "I came to Luoyang just to do business, how could I have other ideas?" ”
Wu Yuandao: "If you are just doing business, how can you meet Liu Fuyin and be recommended by him to face the saint?" I have only just arrived and I have heard that among the many friends in Luoyang, you are the leader! ”
Yang Yun spread his hands: "This is just Liu Fuyin's appreciation." ”
"A good appreciation, in fact, is simply your scheming."
Wu Yuan's face was gloomy, "When I first saw Shu that day, I knew that you were scheming, and the Lingshi was very ordinary, but you were cunning everywhere, and later took advantage of the sister of the Liu family not to say anything, and also came to Luoyang to make waves...... What ulterior motives do you have for coming here today? ”
Yang Yun smiled bitterly.
"This chick is too prejudiced against me, explaining to her is equivalent to playing the piano to a cow, and the best way to deal with it now is not to speak, she likes to think and think."
"Those who are clear are self-purifying."
