Cheng Xin also sighed deeply, and he said solemnly: "I will report this matter to the head of the sect, now that the imperial court is rejuvenating Taoism and Confucianism, it is also appropriate to allocate more donations, and it is not a matter for tens of thousands of Taoist temples to leave them to fend for themselves." ”

"Then I'll bother Uncle Chengxin to say a few more words."

"Out of the way."

Gongsun Jian never thought that these cultivators, who seemed to be not eating the fireworks of the world, would also be troubled by firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and sure enough, no one in the world could escape this predicament.

Just as Gongsun Jian was pondering how much good silver to invest in for a while, the head of the Taoist Department brought the topic to him again.

The head of the Taoist touched his beard and said with a smile: "General Gongsun, Lao Dao is very optimistic about you two good men and women, when do you plan to get married, Lao Dao will help you open the altar to pray for blessings, ask the son to heaven, and let you have a few more fat sons." ”

Gongsun Jian waved his hand, "Actually, I want a daughter." ”

The chief of the ministry said "oh", "Isn't my son good, I can support a family after you and share some pressure on you." ”

Gongsun Jian shook his head, "My son is not good, I was too naughty when I was a child, if I was lucky enough to survive on the battlefield, and even saw the peace of the world with my own eyes, my son is also a general, it is easy to be blinded by brocade clothes and jade food, and if I can't keep it, there will be a gentleman, and then I have to kill my relatives righteously, and besides, how can a son have a daughter, and my daughter will not be arrogant and unreasonable if she is well educated, I don't want much, just two daughters, just be able to live for a long time." ”

If Song Ling'er is here, Rao is her little daughter will be shy, and she can't help but kick Gongsun Jian a few times, she is only twenty-eight years old now, and it is too early to give birth to a child.

Cheng Xin laughed and said: "You are different from others, everyone wants their sons to inherit the family and inherit the incense, you are good, you want a daughter." ”

Gongsun Jian's expression was a little helpless, he smiled bitterly: "In fact, men and women are the same, I think women are a little more bitter, October pregnancy, laundry, cooking, husband and children, which is not a chore, people use the best years to follow you, but treat others as maids, this is also too unfair, if I can hold the rights of one party in the future, I will definitely promote the fairness of men and women!" ”

Cheng Xin stretched out a thumbs up, "General Gongsun has seen so thoroughly at a young age, Poor Dao admires, it seems that after Poor Dao returns to the mountain in the future, he will be better for those Taoist aunts." ”

"Of course, it's not easy to be a woman, and it's even more difficult to be a Daogu."

The three of them laughed loudly in the house.

The head of the Taoist said softly: "Then General Gongsun must see the peace of the world with his own eyes, otherwise no one will come to do this fair talk between men and women." ”

Gongsun Jian's expression was quite bitter, seeing the peace of the world with his own eyes? It's too hard and too early.

He suddenly hesitated, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "The two elders are both cultivators, and the method of self-cultivation is estimated to be perfect, so I will be honest and say a word from my heart." ”

"I can't talk about it, but Poor Dao can guarantee that the conversation between the three of us will never come out of this room, Jiang Tong, do you know?"

The head of the Daoist nodded, "Whether the old Taoist is a cultivator or not, but I know that not chewing your tongue is the foundation of being a human being. ”

"Then I'm relieved, I said bluntly, I used to be illiterate, but after I became literate, I was hungry for books, and I saw a lot of things I hadn't heard of."

"This is a good thing, books are good things, I have lived for 80 years, read for 70 years, and there are still books that I have not read, but the Tao is endless."

Cheng Xin didn't speak, he felt that since Gongsun Jian wanted to say it after hesitation, it was definitely not as simple as reading, he pressed his palm, and the head of the Taoist understood that he would keep silent.

Cheng Xin motioned to Gongsun Jian to continue.

Gongsun Jian pursed his dry lips, he poured a cup of tea and said: "I know what it means in the book to 'kill a person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles', and I also know that 'the underground should not eliminate chivalry, who in the world is willing to have no poetry name', and I also understood 'the sorrow of the cold moon, the west wind and the sea and sand for thousands of miles', but I don't understand one sentence - Taiping is the general's decision, and the general is not allowed to see the peace!" ”

"Smack!"

The teacup that the chief in charge had just picked up was scattered all over the place, he looked left and right, and was relieved when he found that there was no one around, he bent down to pick up the pieces, but his eyes were very shocked, this General Gongsun was actually insinuating the imperial court!

Cheng Xin was much calmer, and he spoke: "Jiang Tong, there are only three people here. ”

How could the head of the Daoist not know the meaning of Cheng Xin's words, he nodded, knowing that if Gongsun Jian had an accident in this matter in the future, it would be his responsibility, and Cheng Xin would definitely punish him at that time.

However, he himself knows that he will not chew his tongue, and what he didn't expect the most was that Uncle Chengxin also wanted to protect Gongsun Jian's rebellious words, you know, although this Uncle Chengxin is only one generation older than himself, it is rumored that the Taoist King will accept him as an apprentice, and change the word "month" at any time.

The division of generations in Qingyang Mountain is extremely strict, the last 100-year generation is "Langtian Mingyue", and this 100-year generation is divided into "Qiushui Chengjiang", but it is a pity that the "Jiang" generation is the unified generation of the expatriate Taoist, otherwise it is not a problem to draw a "month" generation with the age of the old director.

It's a pity that right here, no matter how old the people of the moon generation are, even if they are seven or eight years old, the eighty-year-old man in charge of the Taoist must respectfully shout "Uncle Taishi".

Cheng Xin smiled and said, "General Gongsun has just learned to read and write, is it different from the meaning of this sentence, so he said it?" ”

After Cheng Xin finished speaking, his eyes narrowed and looked directly at Gongsun Jian, this little general is a little scheming, he will definitely be able to guess what he said, if he can't guess, then there is no need for this Gongsun general to exist.

Gongsun Jian took a sip of water, "I don't understand the meaning, so I have to ask carefully, why was the Taiping Shengshi beaten down by the general, but the general was not allowed to come to see it, could it be that someone covered the general's eyes?" I wondered very much about this, if anyone dared to cover my eyes, I would kick him to the wall and not dig it out. ”

"Interesting, interesting."

Cheng Xin shook his head and laughed, he pointed to the young man in front of him and said: "Next time you don't understand something, you can't ask randomly, but your question is nothing in the early years, because 'the general is not allowed to see the peace' did happen, and it really covered the general's eyes, so that he couldn't open them in his life." ”

Gongsun Jian let out a puzzled "oh", "How do you say this?" ”

"There are only three of us in this house, and I will say it directly, this sentence is saying that the emperor is a cold-blooded and ruthless person, saying that he is the one who unloads the mill and kills the donkey, and the secret meaning of this sentence is that the cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook, the birds are exhausted, and the good bow is hidden."

Gongsun Jian pretended to be surprised, he slapped himself and said: "It seems that I still have to learn more, otherwise I will really make some oolong in the future and lose my life, and the gain will outweigh the loss, but fortunately, there are two Taoist masters sitting here." ”

Cheng Xin smiled and waved his hand and said: "It's okay, asking if you don't understand is also a kind of learning, and it's such a reason to ask without shame." ”

The head of the Taoist Department also echoed and smiled, and hurriedly changed the topic, "General Gongsun, Uncle Chengxin has solved your doubts for you, you haven't answered the old question, when will you marry Miss Song, I can wait to be happy and give Miss Song a big gift." ”

"Don't be in a hurry, it's still early to get married, I can't guarantee that I will die on the battlefield one day, Ling'er will become a widow, and in a few days, you will be married first, and then the old master will come, and you will also come to support the façade for me, good guy, not only the old fairy who is too upper-minded is here, but even the great fairy of Qingyang Mountain is here, how magnificent it is."

"If I don't go back to the mountain at that time, I will definitely bring a gift to congratulate me, and then I will be disturbed."

Gongsun Jian smiled, "The most important thing is to be lively." ”

After speaking, Gongsun Jian stood up, it was not early at this time, and it was estimated that it would be dark if he went back later, and now the Song Mansion was on top of the big waves, so it was a little unsafe for Song Ling'er to return to the city so late, although there was a person from the General's Mansion who was beside Song Ling'er, but maybe there was a mad dog-like character with red eyes who would dare to bite.

He hugged his fists and said, "Two Dao Masters, it's getting late, so I won't bother today." ”

The head of the Taoist said: "Don't rush this time, stay for dinner, the meal in the evening is lighter, it is very healthy." ”

"Thank you for the old master, there is still something in the general's mansion, so I will stay soon, and I will have time to talk about it in the future."

The head of the Taoist priest no longer insisted, "Then I'll send you away." ”

Cheng Xin's expression was a little pity, and he got up and said: "I originally wanted to give General Gongsun a divination, but now I don't have a chance, since General Gongsun insists on leaving, can you leave the eight characters to the poor road, the poor road according to the general's eight characters, give you a good calculation, if you can, please tell the poor road where the home is." ”

Gongsun Jian was a little puzzled, he didn't understand why this middle-aged Taoist priest had to calculate a hexagram for himself, but he didn't think much about it, and agreed to Cheng Xin's request, so that he would not waste time, but also be able to fulfill Cheng Xin.

"There is nothing to say, I am a person from Guangling Dao, the eight characters are 癸巳, Ding Si, Bingxu, and Jihai, Chengxin Dao Chief has to calculate for me to see if I can become a general."

Cheng Xinqiang's palms trembled, clenched in his hands, and he already remembered that the ripe pieces of paper were pinched into powder by him, and he finally remembered why the word "Gongsun" was so familiar.

He held back the horror in his heart, took a deep breath and said, "Poor Dao must give General Gongsun a good hexagram, the best hexagram in the world!" ”

Gongsun Jian didn't care why Cheng Xin swore so much, but when this middle-aged Taoist priest was a fortune teller, he walked out of the house and shouted Song Ling'er from afar.

Song Ling'er, Qing'er and Daotong had already built seven or eight snowmen, and adults and children had a snowball fight behind the snowman.

Cheng Xin and the Taoist in charge sent the two out of the view, along the way, Cheng Xin's eyebrows couldn't help jumping, Gongsun Jian was puzzled again, could it be that he left Taishangguan and made this highly senior Qingyang Mountain Taoist excited?

Walking down the mountain gate, Song Ling'er tightened her white fur, Qing'er didn't do much behind the two, Gongsun Jian gently hugged Song Ling'er, and the girl snuggled in the young man's arms, looking at each other, tender like water.

Gongsun Jian was not worried about the carriage of the Song Mansion, and when he met to go to Taishangguan today, it was Yue Xunyi who drove to the Song Mansion to pick up Song Ling'er, at this time Qing'er and Yue Xunyi sat outside the carriage, and Gongsun Jian and Song Ling'er sat in the carriage.

There were only these two people in the carriage, Song Ling'er snuggled in Gongsun Jian's arms, pouted and asked: "It's so strange to be in charge today, I have been here so many times since I was a child, except for when my grandfather came, he never went out to see the door, Gongsun, what did you talk to them about, so that the old master was so respectful to you." ”

Gongsun Jian tapped the tip of the girl's nose, "Because they know that I have such a little wife who is like a flower." ”

The girl sat up suddenly, and she said angrily: "Gongsun, I didn't expect you to be so light! ”

Gongsun Jian pulled Song Ling'er into his arms again, "Think I'm light? It's late now, why don't you say you were so strong before that. ”

Gongsun Jian, who is short-sighted in knowledge, has only this one word in his mind to describe a Gongsun Hao woman with extraordinary bearing and generous manners, naturally she can't avoid Song Ling'er, who has been unveiled Gongsun Wan's face, and Gongsun Jian is not the master who suffers, and his hands pinched the flesh on the girl's waist, causing the girl to laugh again and again.

The carriage walked slowly on the snow, Yue Xunyi and Qing'er sat side by side against the wind and snow, Yue Xunyi listened to the laughter in the car, he said with a look of indignation: "It's really a flower stuck in cow dung, the sky doesn't wait for me." ”
