Liu Yuanjing nodded in agreement, stroked his gray beard with his left hand, thought for a while and said:

"I wrote a letter to Senior Sister Zhong Nanshan, you can find her if you encounter any difficulties. Senior Sister Li has the identity of a princess, the Taoism is above me, and the medical skills are excellent, if you want to take out the light dragon, you can ask her to protect the Tao. ”

Guo Hong waited for Liu Yuanjing to finish writing the letter with his left hand, and took it and put it away closely.

Liu Yuanjing advised again: "Your martial arts are at ease as a teacher, and people are also very smart, but you should be more careful when you go out, and don't easily trust others, especially Yun Xuansu!" ”

Guo Hong was slightly stunned and said, "What's wrong with her?" ”

"Weishi has an intuition, she seems to have concealed a very important situation in the matter of wanting you to go to Chang'an. As a teacher, I don't know what the mystery of the light dragon is, maybe she has other plans. In the past two years, you have relied on the Xuanbi formed by half a light dragon to improve very quickly, this treasure is your source of blessing, don't let people take it away! When I saw that girl, I tried to extract that half of it and combine it into one, it must be a great creation! ”

Liu Yuanjing said that he had hidden the speculation in his heart for more than half a month.

"Understood, Xuanbi is mine, and I won't give it to others!" Guo Hong's word-by-word guarantee.

"Who are you going to take with you?"

"Hmm...... Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Cao, let me ask Senior Sister He again, she will go north after half of July every year anyway, this time it depends on whether she wants to advance. ”

The master and apprentice had decided, Guo Hong opened the door and went out to invite Yun Xuansu and the others over.

Liu Yuanjing told Guo Hong about going north, and said that he would go to heal Yu Xuanji, and asked Yun Xuansu to pay more attention to his safety.

Yun Xuansu gave a deep bow and said, "Xuansu Acting Ancestor and Senior Sister Yu thank you Uncle Liu for your permission, and my Wangwu faction has five hearts. ”

Liu Yuanjing waved his left hand and said: "Your master is a generation of grandmasters, who is seriously ill and still cares about others, saving a girl who has never known him. ”

Yun Xuansu thought of his master, couldn't help but shed tears, hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped it away, and said, "I'm smiling." ”

Chen Taihe saw that the matter was over at this time, so he said goodbye to everyone, said goodbye to Guo Hong, rode a white crane and flew into the sea of clouds from the top of Zhurong Peak, and disappeared after a while.

Guo Hong asked He Qiong if he was willing to go to Chang'an with him, He Qiong smiled happily: "Senior brother wants to go, senior sister naturally has to accompany me, I am a landlord when I arrive in Chang'an, you can play with me!" ”

"Senior sister, I want to go back to the True Palace and talk to Uncle He."

He Qiong nodded and said, "This is naturally wanted, I should say goodbye to my grandmother, and then pack up my things and come over with red beans, how can I have two days." ”

"Then we'll wait for you here for two days, and then we'll go together!"

Three days later, Guo Hong and his entourage left Hengshan and went north, accompanied by Lu Zhizhen, Cao Shouzhen, He Qiong, Hongdou, Yun Xuansu, Wang Dudu, Lu Chaoyang, more than a dozen Hengshan disciples and Yun Xuansu's entourage.

The white crane and the master are now inseparable and are on the road together.

Lu Zhizhen, Cao Shouzhen and others' royal beasts all stayed in Hengshan, after all, a group of people were going to the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and it was inconvenient to take tigers and leopards on the way, which was easy to cause riots.

Deng Shaochong originally wanted to go, but the tigers, leopards and snakes in the mountains could not be left unattended, so he had to stay in the end.

Liu Tai is old and Liu Yuanjing's health has been poor since he broke his hand, so it is difficult to walk with him after all.

He saw that Guo Hong's fist and sword were perfect, and he was protected by the power of thunder and lightning, and he was more relieved, not as inseparable as he was two years ago.

Guo Hong and the others took a boat along the waterway to the north through the Xiangjiang River, and Yun Xuansu saw the flying boat of the Hengshan faction at this time, which was several times larger than the small boat on the surface of the Yutan River and Lake in Weishan last time.

This flying boat has more sails and no oars, and there are machine gears below, and people sit on the boat and step on it, and it is transmitted to the two rows of wheels like waterwheels under the water on the side, and the boat can run on the water without much effort!

A day later, when he arrived in Tanzhou, after the ship docked, Yun Xuansu took the royal capital into the city, and wrote a letter to send it to Wang Jufang's mansion, saying that Guo Hong was unwilling to cooperate, and she had no shame to see each other.

When the two daughters returned to the ship, they continued to set sail, Cao Shouzhen and Lu Chaoyang took the helm alternately, and entered Dongting one day later.

White cranes hover in the air, and flying boats ride the wind and waves along the current.

"It's Dongfu Mountain over there! Lean over and take a look......" He Qiong exclaimed, pointing to a large island in the lake.

At this time, Cao Shouzhen was at the helm, and he was obedient to He Qiong.

Soon they were on the island, and there were several wooden boats moored at the dock.

Yun Xuansu was already a little tired after sitting on the boat for two days, and at this time he landed on the shore and stood in the wind, and his mood was smooth, and he told the people beside him about the origin of this Dongfu Mountain: "This is the Dongfu Mountain, which is known as the eleventh cave in the world, and it is said that Emperor Shun's concubine Empress E and Nuying are buried here, and Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs" calls it Xiangjun, so it is also called Junshan. ”

She had visited this place when she was heading south.

Although this island is not big, it is overgrown with green bamboo trees, the height is staggered, the scenery is peculiar, which is full of ravines, quite a little bit of the feeling of mountains and rivers, willows and flowers.

Lu Chaoyang and Hengshan sent disciples to guard the boat, and the others went ashore one after another.

Guo Hong looked around and nodded secretly, He Qiong had already shouted: "It's really a good scenery, it's different from Wangwu Mountain and Hengshan Mountain!" ”

They walked along the quiet path between the bamboo forests towards the island, and saw the traces of tourists in front of them.

Lu Zhizhen walked in front, followed by Cao Shouzhen, followed by Guo Hong, He Qiong, Hongdou, Yun Xuansu, Wang Dudu, and the five servants of the Wang family walked at the end.

After playing for an hour, in addition to two private gardens and a few temples, the island has been turned around, Guo Hong saw the tadpole text on the Yu tablet in front of the tomb of Emperor Shun's Empress Ying and the second concubine, so he rubbed it down, ready to have time to study it carefully.

They sat in a bamboo pavilion to rest, and after discussion, they decided to set off for home.

"Look at that scholar!" He Qiong tugged at Guo Hong and said to the others.

Everyone followed her gaze and saw a twenty-eight or nineteen-year-old scholar hurrying by.

"Wow, big man!" Wang Du exclaimed.

This man is tall and burly, and according to the standards of later generations, he should be more than two meters tall, and he is very eye-catching wherever he goes!

I saw him lying on silkworm eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, broad forehead, thin cheeks, straight nose, high cheekbones, slender neck, and white complexion.

This scholar has a black mole the size of a chopstick's head at the corner of his left eyebrow and under his left eye, with short hair, a Huayang scarf on his head, a cloud-white shirt, a black silk silk around his waist, and a long sword on his back.

"Such a burly man should be a military general, but he turned out to be a scholar, it's a pity!" Yun Xuansu also said that her husband was in charge of Jinju and often lamented the lack of soldiers and major generals in his hands, so it was natural to think of this.

The scholar glanced at them and was slightly surprised to see the white crane beside Guo Hong, but he quickly continued to hurry with a heavy heart.

"This person's martial arts are not weak." Guo Hong glanced at the scholar's walking posture and said.

"He must have gone to catch a tryst!" Red Bean looked at it a few times and said.

"Is Xiao Nizi Sichun? What do you always think about? Yun Xuansu said with a smile.

"Not really! The mandarin duck purse that this man hung was very poorly made, and it was sold a hundred times better in the bazaar, so it couldn't be embroidered by his mother, right? Red Bean retorted angrily.

"Mandarin duck...... Red bean ...... "Wang Dudu originally wanted to praise "really right", but suddenly had an association with the words mandarin duck and red bean, and a flush appeared on his cheeks for a while.

"You're making fun of me too!" Hongdou and Wang Du are also familiar with each other, so they go to her itch, and the two make a mess.

"A purse doesn't mean anything, maybe it was given by this person before." Cao Shouzhen remembered the purse he had given and looked at He Qiong.

He Qiong seemed to think of it when she heard this, glanced back at Cao Shouzhen, straightened her face and tilted her head to the side.

Hongdou didn't care about this, and said, "Then let's go and have a look!" As he spoke, he pulled up the royal capital and chased after him.

The other people were a little helpless, and they were afraid that the two girls would get lost, so they had to keep up.

They chased a section and turned a corner, and the tall scholar suddenly disappeared.

"Strange, why is it gone?" Wang Dudu muttered to himself.

The Persian cat in her arms suddenly jumped down and rushed to the side.

"This way!" Hongdou chased two steps, and saw a small fork in the road that extended into the bamboo forest, and there was a faint flash of white clothes, and she excitedly whispered to the back: "Take it lightly!" ”

Everyone quietly followed, and when they turned around this bamboo forest, it turned out to be a temple.

This place is very deserted, and the outside of the temple has been covered with barren grass, which seems to be an abandoned temple.

The Persian cat was already waiting on the strange rock near the temple gate.

The door was open, and Guo Hong suddenly quickened his pace and walked to the front, waving his hand at Hongdou and Wang Dudu to stop.

"There's a man at the entrance of the main hall, let's go around to the back and go in." He whispered to the crowd.

Several young men and women were smiling and very excited, Lu Zhizhen and Yun Xuansu and the others shook their heads and smiled bitterly, but they thought that they were originally out to play, so they had to mess around with the children, and if they couldn't get along in the end, they still needed these two adults to come out and clean up the situation.

The wall behind the temple had collapsed, and the boys and girls jumped in, and Yun Xuansu asked the five servants of the Wang family to wait outside, followed by Lu Zhizhen.

They were all armed with martial arts, and soon quietly came to the Buddha statue in the main hall.

At this time, a woman's voice came from the Buddha statue: "Cousin, you must find a way to save the slave family...... I really can't stand it, I am locked up on this island every day, like a prison for years, and the slave family is really afraid that one day I won't be able to stand it and look for a short ......"

A man's voice sounded: "Su Su, Brother Wei came from Luoyang this time, just because I was afraid that something would happen to you, thank God there was no accident!" ”

The woman named Su Su said: "My father told the people outside that the slave family was sick, and when I met with you in the past few days, it was Xiao Mercury who helped cover up and escaped Ah Shen's surveillance...... If she finds out, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave Xiangzhuyuan in the future, and I'll never see my cousin again! ”

The man spoke again, and there was a magnetism in his voice, and the girls listened with a light in their eyes.

I just heard him say: "Don't worry, although Granny Shen is strict on the surface, she actually loves you very much, she has long known that you and I will meet, and she has never revealed it, and she secretly mentioned it to me, and it was she who instructed her brother to come to this broken temple to find you in the beginning." ”

The woman sighed and said: "No wonder my cousin was able to find this place that day, it turned out that he was instructed by someone, and the slave family thought that this temple was so remote, and thought it was the Buddha's manifestation!" ”

Hongdou and Wang Du couldn't help but be curious, and stretched out their heads to peek, but saw that the man was indeed the tall scholar he saw earlier, and the woman was facing the door, and could only see her back.

"Hehe, what kind of spirit can this wood carving clay sculpture have? A few years ago, when the Buddha was destroyed, all the gold pasted on the Buddha statue was stripped away, if the Buddha really had a spirit, how could he let his statue suffer such a catastrophe and ruin? Susu, you better learn from me......" the man said gently.

Su Su shook her head, turned around and knelt on the futon, folded her palms and bowed to the Buddha statue, before she got up and said to the man: "Amitabha, cousin, don't say that, the wish I made here the day before yesterday will come true so soon!" Of course, the Buddha has a spirit, otherwise how could he have brought you here through the hand of Ashen? ”

The scholar smiled helplessly, didn't argue with his cousin, and asked, "Cousin, are you still having nightmares from time to time?" Always dreaming of that devil? ”

"Yes, this devil is so terrible, the slave family is scared every night, I don't know when it's over!"

"Cousin, you and relax, for my brother since he was a child in Luoyang to worship a Taoist with profound mana as a teacher, the day before yesterday I received a letter from you, hurried to this side, left a message for the master to ask for help, he just arrived today, at this time in Yueyang City." Scholar Dao.

Yun Xuansu also looked at it at this time, and found that the two had been observing etiquette and standing more than a foot apart, but the joy between their eyebrows and eyes was hard to hide, and their faces showed spring, so they must be a pair of two lovers.

"Invite your Daoist master so quickly, the slave family can't bear it for a moment."

He Qiong and Guo Hong also poked their heads out, and they could see Su Su's side face, only to see that her skin was like clotted fat, her face was like a peach blossom, she had a pair of talking eyes, a dignified posture, and elegant manners.

This woman is seventeen or eighteen years old, but she is dressed as an unmarried woman, and looking at the hairpin ring jewelry on her body, she is also a lady.

A man and four women were all peeking, but they were on the same side of the Buddha statue.

The main hall is relatively wide, and they have a distance from each other, and because Guo Hong said that the scholar's martial arts are good, everyone controls their breathing and does not make a sound.

Guo Hong climbed high and stepped on the eaves of the niche on the wall behind the Buddha statue, on top of the four women, and did not hinder others.

But He Qiong is different, she is similar to Hongdou and Wang Du, and she is blocked tightly, so she pressed her hand on the shoulders of the two.

The jade bracelet "Jiuzhi" on his hand is a bit heavy, but unfortunately it hit the back of the red bean's head.

Hongdou turned around with a sigh and hit the back of Wang Dudu's head with his elbow.

Wang Dudu bent over at the bottom, and was inexplicably beaten and fell headlong.

Hongdou stumbled and fell on top of her, Hongdou and Wang Du both screamed together, and He Qiong pressed on top of the two again......

Yun Xuansu was also tripped up, but fortunately she had high kung fu skills, and jumped out in a flash, and finally did not fall.

The tall scholar was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled his cousin behind him, drawing his long sword from behind his back.

He saw that the few people who fell to the ground were women, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, just now he thought it was a robber!

"Who are you, why are you here?"

Lu Zhizhen coughed and turned around, and said: "Lu Zhizhen, the eldest disciple of Mr. Guangcheng of the Poor Dao Hengshan Sect, and Elder Yun of the Wangwu Sect found that there was a demonic aura here, so they brought a few junior brothers and sisters to eliminate the demons. ”

This was the excuse he had discussed with Yun Xuansu in advance.

Yun Xuansu stroked Yun Xuansu's temples, smiled slightly, and said, "Poor Dao Wangwu sent Yun Xuansu." We sailed over Jun Mountain, saw the demonic spirit, and went to the island to check out for a moment of curiosity, these are all disciples, I don't want to meet you talking here, I don't want to disturb, but a few children are naughty, disturbing the two, and the poor road is guilty. ”

She said with a bowe.

"It turned out to be Senior Sister Wang Wuyun and the junior disciples of the Hengshan faction, who sent Lu Yu to Penglai in the Lower East China Sea, and admired the name for a long time." The man returned the sword to the sheath, and also made a mockery.

"It turned out to be the high foot of the Penglai faction in the East China Sea, and I am fortunate to be lucky." Lu Zhizhen said, he suddenly woke up, the other party was also surnamed Lu, so he said: "I have the same surname as Brother Tai, where is Brother Lu Yu from?" ”

Lu Yu said: "Brother Yu's ancestral home is Hedong County, Puzhou (Puzhou Town, Yongji, Shanxi), and he lives in Luoyang, I don't know who Senior Brother Lu is?" ”

Lu Zhizhen said: "The younger brother is a native of Shouchun County, Shouzhou (Lu'an, Anhui), and now lives in Hengzhou. ”

The two identify with Zong and continue to be young, and they are commensurate with each other, Lu Yu is twenty-nine years old, one year older than Lu Zhizhen.

Everyone exchanged names, and Guo Hong still reported the name "Guo Shangzao".

Several women walked to the side and talked together.

"My father is Yuezhou Thorn History, surnamed Li, Yuanyuan, just released from Chang'an in February, the slave family's nickname Susu, 18 years old this year, since arriving in Yueyang, I feel unwell, and I made a fool of myself in the first outing with the local lady, which disgraced the family, so I took refuge in this place for several months, and has not been able to recover."

It turned out that the woman's name was Li Susu, and she talked to a few people who had just overheard, with a look of shame, and told her what happened to her.

Women in the Tang Dynasty mostly used double-character names, such as Dudu and Susu, and in the list of female believers left in the Dunhuang Secret Caves, women with double-character names accounted for the majority.

Yun Xuansu saw that she didn't brush her sleeves away just now, and knew that she was a well-cultivated person, so she comforted her in a harmonious voice: "It's okay, when the poor road was as old as a little lady, there was also a big ugly appearance in front of people, and after a few months, others will slowly forget about it." ”

Li Susu's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head and said: "My illness is good and bad, and I don't recognize my six relatives when I have a seizure, but I don't dare to go to travel anymore!" ”

"Poor Dao also feels that there is something wrong with the little lady, could it be that the sky-high demonic energy we saw on the lake should be here?" Yun Xuansu just heard Li Susu talk about dreaming of a demon or something like that, so he said in passing.

"The refiner is really profound, please save the slave family!" Li Susu bowed her head, and Yun Xuansu hurriedly held her up.

Lu Zhizhen over there heard it, and hurriedly colored Yun Xuansu, where did they see any demonic qi before they came over.

Lu Yu said on the side: "It turns out that Senior Sister Yun can also see it, then please go to see Master together, everyone will refer to it together, and we will definitely get rid of this demon!" ”

Yun Xuansu said unhurriedly: "I was about to meet the seniors of the Penglai faction!" ”

Lu Yu said: "Then please wait outside for a while, and I will explain to my cousin before leaving." ”

Yun Xuansu and the other seven people went out from the main gate of the main hall, and the little maid who was guarding outside to watch the wind was dumbfounded, not knowing where so many people came from.

Guo Hong whistled, and the white crane flew down from the roof of the palace, looking forward to independence, and combing his feathers.
