Chapter 20 Giving to the Palace Master
Boarding the carriage, Xiao Yu saw Han Liyan sitting inside and smirking at him.
"Hmph, you got into someone's carriage without saying hello to me, does what you just said still count?" Xiao Yu asked deliberately angrily.
It turned out that in order to coax Xiao Yu to play just now, Han Liyan assured Xiao Yu that she would never call Xiao Yu "mud monkey" again in the future, and if the two of them went out in the future, Han Liyan could not make decisions on her own.
"Oh, Brother Xiao, of course it counts, but when people think about it, you will definitely agree, so come up first. It's windy outside, and you can't bear to see me shivering in the cold wind. Han Liyan had a delicate expression, as if she was about to cry.
"Alas, forget it, you have to pay attention in the future." Xiao Yu was helpless.
"Okay, Brother Xiao, come here for the dim sum, the dim sum they made for the pie is really good, this ginseng cake is so sweet, it will melt after taking a bite, come and taste it." Han Liyan flattered and brought out a plate of dim sum.
Xiao Yu was really a little hungry, smelling the fragrance of the ginseng cake in the air, and couldn't help but open his mouth.
"Oh, it's really fateful, Poor Dao is willing to ride with the young man, and it's so close." As soon as the words fell, the somewhat awkward Taoist priest lifted the curtain on the carriage, and most of his lean body got into the carriage.
It was not the right time for the Taoist priest to come, Han Liyan was holding a ginseng cake to Xiao Yu's mouth, and Xiao Yu was waiting for the entrance of the food with his mouth open. Such an intimate action was clearly seen by the Taoist priest, and the key was that Han Liyan was still wearing men's clothes.
Three people, you look at me, I look at you, and for a while even the air stopped flowing in embarrassment.
In the end, Han Liyan, who had no good impression of the Taoist priest, spoke.
"Get out!" Stretch out a foot that is on the bridge of the Taoist priest's nose.
"Oops." The Taoist priest was defenseless and rolled off the carriage.
Han Liyan's kick is really "a hundred shots".
......
The carriage walked for less than half an hour and finally stopped at the door of a heavy and gorgeous mansion, which was the Sheyu faction.
There are four ancient acacia at the entrance of the mansion, with upper and lower horse stones, and stakes for tying horses. In the Guangliang gate, there is a door lamp, there is a lazy stool under the door, and there is a room in the door, a steward's room, and a communication room, and the people are all sitting in their respective posts.
At the entrance of the mansion, there was a large group of people standing in front of the carriage.
As soon as Xiao Yu landed, a powerful voice came over.
"These are the three little heroes, they are really extraordinary, not bad, not bad."
Xiao Yu followed the sound and saw that a large group of people not far from the carriage were all dressed in purple, all of them were shining brightly, and their spirits were magnificent. The one who spoke just now was an old man who was surrounded by everyone like the stars holding the moon.
The old man looked about the age of Master Xiao Yu, his face was full of insights about life, and his long white beard and purple clothes gave him an indescribable feeling.
Xiao Yu hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "I don't dare to work so hard, the younger generation deserves it." ”
Han Liyan and the Taoist priest also hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute.
"It's okay, it's okay, young heroes should naturally be treated like heroes, how can they be like mortals?" The old man said heartily.
"The seniors praised it falsely, and the juniors' surname is Xiao Dan's name, this is mine, well, my brother-in-law." Xiao Yu pointed at Han Liyan and was about to speak, but Han Liyan opened her mouth first.
"My name is Han Yan, and I'm polite."
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment and did not answer.
"Poor Road No. 'Thanh Hoa'." The Taoist priest continued Han Liyan's words and said with a smile.
"Dao Chief, this is?" The old man looked at the Taoist priest's thin face with a nosebleed suspiciously.
"Oh, this, haha, it's okay, it's okay, Poor Dao accidentally crashed into the carriage just now, hahaha." The lean Taoist priest of the Taoist Qinghua wiped his face nonchalantly, but evenly touched the nosebleed on his face, and with his sneer, he got rid of a living treasure.
Everyone forced back their laughter.
After the three of them finished introducing themselves, the disciple of the Sheyu faction, who was the leader of the meeting just now, said, "Three little heroes, this is the palace master of the contempt faction, the palace master's surname is Liu, and his name is Fang. ”
The three of them saluted together, "It turned out to be the Lord of the Liu Palace, and he was disrespectful and disrespectful." ”
"Hahaha, where do cultivators come from so much red tape, come on, come on, please come in." The palace master laughed heartily and stepped sideways out of the aisle.
After some excuses, the three of them followed behind the palace master and walked slowly while looking around.
Entering the gate of the mansion, the eyes of the three of them lit up. The carved railings in the house are painted, the flowing water is murmuring, the flowers and trees are planted everywhere, and occasionally one or two bird calls can be heard, which makes people wonder if they have arrived in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is now the cold winter season, if it is summer, you can imagine what kind of beautiful scenery should be here.
From the gate to the middle of the main hall, a path was paved with plum blossom petals, and the cold wind was slight, and the fragrance of flowers was bursting, and everyone was intoxicated. On both sides of the road, there are two rows of Sheyu sect disciples, dressed in purple with red flowers, but they also complement each other.
"The old man has ordered someone to prepare thin wine, please." The palace master stood on the edge of the flower path and stretched out his hand.
Xiao Yu saw for the first time what it meant to be extremely luxurious, and he followed the palace master to look around, but Han Liyan and the Taoist priest looked natural, and walked step by step on the flower road with their hands behind their backs.
Everyone entered the room and sat down in the main and guest seats. In addition to the palace master, there are two people in the Sheyu faction to accompany him, one is the leading disciple at the marriage conference, and the other is a horse-faced man.
"Today, three young heroes came to my Sheyu faction, the disdainful faction is really vibrant, the names of the three heroes are already thunderous, let me introduce my disciples who are not successful." The palace master said boldly.
"This is forestry, the forest owner, I think several of them are already familiar with it." The palace master pointed to the leading disciple at the matchmaking conference.
Hearing this, the forest owner gave a polite gesture to the three of them, and the three of them hurriedly returned the salute.
"This is Huangshan Song, the owner of the Yellow Chamber." The palace master pointed at the horse-faced man again.
The horse-faced man also saluted each other with the three of them.
"The performance of the three little heroes at the matchmaking conference, the old man already knew that the two levels of 'Windfall from the Sky' and 'Hundred Shots and Hundred Hits' were designed by the old man himself, but he didn't expect that several of them would find out the flaws and skills in a short period of time, which is really terrifying, terrifying." The palace master's words were not angry.
The three of them became slightly unnatural when they heard this.
"Come on, come on, getting acquainted is fate, let's drink this cup first!" The palace master changed the subject and stood up with a bowl of wine.
"Haha, good wine"
"The palace master is bold"
"Come, let's try a few side dishes that I gave to the chef, I don't know the preferences of a few people, don't be surprised."
The three of them were polite.
After a few glasses of wine, the relationship between everyone has been pulled in a lot, the cheerful Han Liyan and Qinghua Daoren have lost the pimple at the beginning, the two of them got together and didn't know what they were talking about, and the happy Han Liyan trembled.
"Brother Xiao, come, I'll toast you," the horse-faced yellow chamber master smiled and raised his glass.
"Palace Master, I toast you." The Qinghua Daoist also stood up.
......
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, everyone drank a lot.
"What, that's amazing!" Han Liyan said suddenly.
It turned out that the master of Lin Xiang was introducing the basic situation of the Sheyu faction to Han Liyan and the Qinghua Daoist.
"Yes, that's true of my She's faction, and it's not an exaggeration." Lord Lin Xiang said proudly.
When Xiao Yu heard this, his heart was also itchy, and he hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened.
"It has been more than ten years since I gave up the Yu faction, and under the leadership of our palace master, it is really not easy for our faction to develop from the original few people to more than 1,000 people today," Lin Xiang Lord paused, "In this Goguryeo territory, as long as I mention my Sheyu faction, who will not give a thumbs up." ”
The palace master smiled slightly when he heard this, and the body of the yellow chamber master was straight.
After more than ten years of painstaking management, in Goguryeo, as long as there is a profitable livelihood, the Sheyu faction is indispensable. Money banks, dart boards, pawnshops, and even a special ocean-going trading fleet, which have made a lot of money over the years, otherwise how could there be so much financial resources to support this meeting, let alone a soup kitchen three times a day.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, especially after the palace master nodded slightly to himself, he cleared his throat and continued to speak.
"The purpose of our faction is to take the common people in the world as our own responsibility. Widows and lonely people, do their best to provide for their lives, not this, our faction also deliberately established a nursery hall, a gentleman's house, and a mansion, and the infant king of our dynasty also specially sent an inscription for me to show the reward. ”
"The palace master is really a bodhisattva, admire, admire." Han Liyan is actually very good at talking, as long as she is not with Xiao Yu.
"Yes, yes, yes, it coincides with the teachings of our Taoist sages in the past, wonderful." After Qinghua Daoist finished speaking, he and Han Liyan looked at each other and smiled.
Xiao Yu was stunned, when did these two guys have such a good relationship.
"Hahaha, these are just false names, false praise." The palace master suddenly changed the topic, "Today, please ask the three little heroes to come here and ask for something." ”
"The palace master said that it doesn't matter, what else can I ask for, as long as I can help, I will never refuse." Han Liyan hurriedly replied.
"No, it's us, right, Brother Xiao, Qinghua Daoist." Han Liyan looked at the two with a hippie smile.
"If you don't say it, you won't give up." Qinghua Taoist patted his thin chest.
Xiao Yu was speechless, didn't he say that he shouldn't make decisions when he encountered things, but then he thought about it, if it was for the sake of the common people in the world, it would be a good thing to accumulate merit, and he hugged his fist at the palace master, "Palace master, please speak." ”
The palace master stroked his beard and said solemnly: "My faction holds four bonding conferences every year, one is to make friends and make a good fate; second, to widely spread grace and relief to 10,000 households; The third, and most important point, is to persuade all heroes to be more chivalrous and righteous and seek benefits for the common people in the world, which is what my generation should do in the world. ”
"Good!" Xiao Yu only felt his blood boiling, "The palace master is really a saint in the world!" ”
Han Liyan and Qinghua Daoist also became excited.
"Haha, don't praise the three of you like that. I just hope that the three of them will be able to keep the old man's words in mind when they walk and sharpen in the future, and the old man will be content. ”
"Palace Master, you don't need to say these things, they should be what I should do." Xiao Yu said solemnly.
"Okay, in this way, the old man will be relieved." The palace master laughed.
"Actually, there's one more thing I want the three of you to help you with." Lin Xiang Lord looked at the palace master and said cautiously.
"Lord Lin Xiang! How can some of the old man's trivial things bother a few! The palace master suddenly became angry.
The palace master's face suddenly changed, and the three of them were unexpected.
"The palace master is serious, it would be great if the three of us could help." Xiao Yu hurriedly said, "Master Lin Xiang don't swallow and vomit, but it's okay to say it." ”
Lin Xiang Lord secretly looked at the palace master, the palace master sighed, waved his hand, "Say it, say it." If you don't know how to tell them, you'll find a time to tell them. ”
Lord Lin Xiang sighed, "The three of you don't know, the Venerable Master usually likes to read and collect the works of the sages of the past dynasties, but there is one book that has never been found. ”
Xiao Yu and the other three held their breath and looked at the forest master eagerly.
"That is the "Hong Fan Jiuchou" that Nuwa Niangniang gave to Xia Yu and sorted out by the relics of the Shang Dynasty!"
"Hong Fan Jiuchou"?
Xiao Yu had never heard of the name of this book, and looked at Han Liyan and Qinghua Daoren suspiciously, while the two of them shook their heads at Xiao Yu at the same time.
Lord Lin looked at the expressions of the three of them, slightly disappointed, "There are very few people in the world who know about this work, and it is normal for the three of them not to know." I just hope that if the three of them come across this book in the future, they can bring it back for the respected teacher to take a few looks, and it will also cure a piece of the respected teacher's heart disease. ”
"What else do you see, I didn't say it, if I encounter it in the future, I will directly bring it to the palace master." Qinghua Taoist people are rare positive color road.
"Yes, yes, it's for the palace master." The remaining two also said.
"Hahaha, some little things of the old man, I can't talk about any heart disease, come and come, don't talk about it, drink." The palace master persuaded him to drink again and again.
