Chapter Seventy-Six: Hooking Up
But all the sects that teach the Dharma, whether it is the way of the heavenly master or the Buddha, must show miracles to confuse the foolish people. At the beginning, Zhu Fayan on the lonely mountain spit out live fish, and Du Mingyu sword slashed the ghost, all of which were this set of tricks, which was nothing more than the confrontation between the half-hung magician and the half-hung chemist. But in addition, there is a kind of illusion that is close to the hypnosis of the later generations, which can take people's hearts, create illusions, make people immersive, color, sound, fragrance, and if there is substance, they will naturally believe in what they see with their own eyes. There are many such vivid records in the classics of Buddhism and Taoism, including orthodox historical books, which must not be fabricated out of thin air, but indeed someone who integrates hypnosis, magic and chemistry and a hundred operas, pretending to be a god, and has a glorious golden body for himself!
Yuan Qingqi, the right talent, must be a kind of illusion, if it weren't for Xu You's two lives, his mind is extremely firm, I am afraid that he would have confided his true thoughts in his heart.
He is not a devout Taoist, how can he be willing to abide by the ten laws of Taoism, just listen to it, and leave no trace in his left ear and out of his right ear. Yuan Qingqi's sudden spell casting should be a test, but fortunately, Xu You passed the test safely, and this really became the correct rule of Yangzhou.
Sure enough, it's careless!
After getting off the stage, because the ceremony was not over, everyone could not gather around to compliment, but one by one, they showed their eyes and bowed, most of them showed a friendly look, Xu You smiled and had a kind attitude, which left a good impression on many people present.
At the end of the unitary time, with the ringing of nine bells, the ceremony came to an end, Yuan Qingqi did not leave a meal, and sent these newly promoted Taoist officials down the mountain, and then summoned Xu You, and said: "I will go to South Xuzhou tomorrow to do business, and I will return in seven days. ”
Xu You pretended to be frightened and politely refused: "I just arrived, and I don't know much about the affairs of the internal education, so I ask the sacrificial wine to take back my life!" ”
Yuan Qingqi said with a smile: "No one is born to do things, learn slowly, it doesn't matter if you do it wrong, the important thing is to do it boldly!" ”
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Xu You retreated and said: "If the idea of sacrificing wine has been decided, then I have to do my best, but in any case, please leave me a helper for sacrificial wine, so as not to make a mistake!" ”
Yuan Qingqi pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, Gong Yi, you stay!" ”
Gong Yi was stunned, Yuan Qingqi went to Southern Xuzhou to track down the whereabouts of the two heavenly lords of the Luo Killing Heavenly Palace, but he left her in Linwu Mountain to watch her family, without the slightest expression on her face, and said quietly: "No!" ”
Bai Yi sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, holding the gravel in both hands to hit the flowers in the flower garden, and when he saw Xu You coming in, he turned his head with a pout, and ignored him angrily. Xu You walked up to him and sat down, and said with a smile: "What, are you still angry?" Today, I heard a few names, as if they were your companions in Cai Shan......"
"Huh? It's true? Bai Yi jumped up excitedly, his eyes almost lit up, and said, "Where are they?" ”
"Don't worry, I'm not sure if it's true? It seems to be called the remote distance, Liang Weike, Feng Nanshan, Gu Shangshu, by the way, there is also a person named Luo Xinzhu, who is a beautiful little lady. ”
Bai Yi poured a basin of cold water on his head, stayed for a while, sat down dejectedly, and said, "No, I haven't heard of any of them, and Cai Shan doesn't have a good-looking little lady......"
It seems that the adolescent teenagers are not very satisfied with the quality of their classmates in the past Taoist career, Xu You said softly: "Maybe they changed their names......"
"Hey, it's possible, Sister Gong Yi also said that she would change my name, but I like Bai Yi too much, and I don't want to live or die, so she didn't mention it again."
"Why don't you go and see it?"
"Thank you Masaharu!"
Bai Yiwei screamed twice, turned over, and disappeared quickly. Xu You shook his head and smiled, returned to the room, and did not come out for two days.
Bang bang bang!
The door was knocked on and was about to fall apart, Xu You opened it lazily, Gong Yi stood outside, and said with a cold face: "Lin Zhengzhi, when the sacrificial wine left, I ordered you to handle the teaching affairs, but in the past two days, you have made an excuse not to come forward, and pressed the matter on my head, and when the sacrificial wine comes back, how do you explain?" ”
Xu You smiled and said: "The girl is angry, I have been busy perfecting the last few volumes of "Lao Tzu Hua Hu Jing" in the past two days, and I really can't take a break, anyway, I don't understand the teaching affairs, I am tired of the girl's hard work, and I have to take care of one or two." ”
Gong Yi stared at Xu You, but he didn't speak.
Xu You still smiled.
"Masaji, if you're worried about sacrificial wine and suspicion, you don't have to!" Gong Yi sighed lightly, lowered his head, looked at his toes, and said: "The sacrificial wine should rectify the teaching affairs of Yangzhou governance, the matter is big, and all parties need to work hard, and the more talents, the better." If Zhengzhi really has the talent of the heavens and latitudes, the sacrificial wine will not only not be feared, but will be more relied on, although Yangzhou is small, but the Heavenly Master is big, can accommodate the sacrificial wine, but also tolerate the Zhengzhi! ”
She raised her head, her eyes were as clear as water, and said: "These words are shallow and profound, I shouldn't have said it, but Zhengzhi is so obscure, isn't it intentional to sacrifice wine from the outside?" Even fools like me can see it, how can the sacrificial wine not understand? At that time, I'm afraid that Zhengzhi wants to stay in this Western Courtyard, and it will become a delusion to write "Lao Tzu Hua Hu Jing" with peace of mind......"
Xu You was shocked, bowed his hand, and said: "The girl can say such things to me, which shows that I am not a person who does not know what to do, and I have no intention of sacrificing wine, and the Mingfa Temple greatly offended Zhu Dao'an, and Lao Tzu turned the Hu Jing into a completely angry Buddhism, the world is big, only the Heavenly Master Tao is where I can stay." But in the Heavenly Master's Dao, I have no foundation, and I have no connections, only the appreciation and reliance of sacrificial wine is the foundation of my life, which I know better than anyone else. ”
Gong Yi didn't know what's wrong, with her character, she should never easily say such damaging words to others, maybe it was the pathos and affection that the person in front of her who was thinking of her lover that day moved her, so she couldn't help but want to remind him, don't offend the sacrificial wine in Yangzhou!
Just like that day when he was open-mouthed, he spoke foul language like a bald donkey, and deliberately rebuked him,
"Then you still don't follow the command of the sacrificial wine......"
Xu You smiled bitterly, turned sideways, and said, "The girl will know when she comes in!" ”
Gong Yi hesitated, but still entered the house, the narrow doorway almost let the two pass by, there was a faint warm breath from the end of the nose, his body trembled slightly, and his feet were a little faster.
There was a pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk in the room, and thousands of words were sprinkled after writing, and the ink was not dry, and Gong Yi was surprised: "This is your word?" ”
Although Xu You rarely had a copybook flow out before, and even the Qiantang Lake Yaji did not move a stroke, it is unlikely that someone will recognize it from the handwriting, but just in case, he still takes the strengths of all the families, and the penmanship of the thin gold body has changed the writing habits, and he has practiced day and night, at most, he only has the five success of the book king style, but it can also be regarded as a good word.
"Yes, has the girl seen a book like this anywhere else?"
Gong Yi took out a piece of paper, looked at it closely, and said, "It's because I've never seen a book like this that I'm curious." The more she looked, the more she liked it, Lin Tong's words were different from those that were common in the past, the bones were beautiful, quite charming, the pen gesture was delicate, but it was bent to the iron and gold, with a strong personal style, which made people unforgettable.
Xu You smiled: "Calligraphy is just a trail, what matters is the content of the writing!" Girl, please see, "Lao Tzu Hua Hu Jing" has only completed one volume, and I am now writing the second volume. Ben Wuzong has suffered such a big loss, he will not endure it for too long, and soon there will be masters who will make a move and write scriptures to refute it, time is not waiting, and the next few volumes must be written as soon as possible, so as to meet the battle! ”
He spoke sincerely, dissected his heart, and said: "The girl said that I am Taoguang, maybe others think that I am obscure, but in fact, they look down on me and underestimate the sacrificial wine." Although I am a little talented, compared with the sacrificial wine, is the light of the bright moon, and the green dragon soaring in the nine skies will be afraid of the river shrimp that swallows mud and spits sand? I've been closed for the past two days, it's really for the long-term, I hope the girl understands! ”
Gong Yi had already believed Xu You's words, bit his red lip and glanced at him, and said, "It's me who blames you...... yes, I'm sorry ......."
This may be the first time Gong Yi apologized to a man, Xu You bent down and arched his hand, and said with a smile: "Where, if the girl is willing to understand me for three points, I will be very happy, and I am afraid that I will stay awake all night!" ”
"You...... What crazy to say! ”
Gong Yiqiao's face was slightly red, and she turned around and left.
Xu You leaned against the door, beckoned at Gong Yi's back, and said, "The girl has nothing to do to come and go around, and I am also depressed when I am alone!" ”
Miyaichi walked faster.
As soon as it was nightfall, Bai Yi came back in a hurry, and Xu You had already asked from his mouth, the five spirit officials were not the people who were in Caishan Taoist Temple at the beginning, so it can be seen that Yuan Qingqi's chips are far more than Caishan.
"Come back so early, don't you get close to that Luo Xinzhu set?"
Bai Yi cried with a sad face and said, "Sister Luo ignores me!" ”
"Oh," Xu You put down the brush and said, "Why don't you ignore you?" ”
"We had a good conversation and said that we would take her to an interesting place in the evening, but when we got there, she shook her hand and left!"
Xu You sneered and said, "Didn't you do something to others?" ”
"I didn't!" Bai Yi shouted: "I am very polite, who doesn't know up and down this Linwu Mountain?" You have wronged me......"
"Good, good, my bad! So why the hell ......"
Xu You suddenly saw the bird feathers in his hand, and suddenly had a bad premonition, and said, "The good place you said is to go to the edge of the cliff to catch birds?" ”
"That's right!" Bai Yi was straightforward and said, "Is there anything more interesting than this?" ”
Xu You grabbed a ball of waste paper and smashed it, Bai Yi didn't dare to dodge, and smashed it directly on the forehead, and said: "If you want to please the girl, the first consideration is how to make the other party feel interesting and catch birds...... Linwu Mountain is the only one who likes to catch birds, okay? If I were Luo Xinzhu, I would have cut off your head with a sword! ”
Bai Yi was so frightened that he hugged his head and said, "Why are you cutting off my head?" ”
"My head is full of, what's the use of keeping it?"
Bai Yi was scolded and had no temper, and asked pitifully: "Ask Zhengzhi to teach me, how to please Sister Luo's heart?" ”
Xu You smiled slightly and said, "Want to know?" ”
"Hmm!" Bai Yi nodded frantically.
"You can teach me, but you have to promise me one thing!"
Bai Yi knelt down, kowtowed three times in a row, looked at Xu You with hopeful eyes, and said, "Zhengzhi, don't say three, even if it's three hundred, I'll depend on you!" ”
Xu You walked over, squatted down in front of him, and asked with a smile, "Bai Yi, what kind of martial arts are you learning in Caishan Daoguan?" ”
