At the gate of Liaoyang City, a group of officials were waiting anxiously, and when they saw a group of Taoist priests outside the city, they immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"Ahh Liaoyang Taishou Sun Yuce saw the immortal master, and the immortal master worked hard all the way. ”

"Oh! It turned out to be Lord Sun, Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the poor road is just a poor road, a person who turns into an outsider, the adult has such a big number of gifts, the poor road is really flattered! ”

"Ahh Dao Chief, what you said was originally intended to be greeted by Lord Xue in person, but the situation in the frontier was unstable, so the Lord left behind went to the frontier to inspect. Besides, we are wild and cold here in Liaodong, and those people of Buddhism and Taoism are all sanctimonious and seem to be Qing Xiu, but in fact, who doesn't know, it's not that they are reluctant to be rich and prosperous in the Central Plains......" Sun Yuce was saying when suddenly, he heard a cough.

"Gnaw! Master Sun, our master has worked hard all the way, and I hope you will take us to the pavilion to rest immediately! Sun Yuce stopped talking. Immediately looked at the voice—'It turned out to be a young Taoist priest.' Hum! If it weren't for your master's face, as well as the orders from above, Lao Tzu would ignore you guys who ask for food (Sun Yuce was born as a military general, and he has always scoffed at the gods, Buddhas, and ghosts.) Therefore, in Sun Yuce's eyes, monks and Taoists receive alms as if they were asking for food). ’

"Ahh Masters, please enter the city, and the official will immediately wash the dust for you! Ladies and gentlemen, please enter the city! When Daoist Xie Hong and his entourage walked towards the city, Sun Taishou noticed that the Lingguan Daoist was walking with a bit of an official step. There was some hesitation in my heart. But he turned around and left it behind.

"Come on! Come! Come! Immortal masters, fellow Dao Masters, please! You may be seated! "Daoist Xie Hong and his entourage came to the banquet and saw that all the banquet was full of big fish and meat, and they were all dumbfounded - although Taoists don't care about meat and don't quit marriage, but when they see the dishes on this banquet, they can no longer express the meat of the light village. I saw that the entire table was full of reminders of huge animals. A whole roast suckling pig, a whole deer, and a fish whose name is unknown and whose length occupies the entire table. Seeing the dishes on the table, many people hesitated and did not move their chopsticks.

"Oops! Ladies and gentlemen! You move your chopsticks! You're welcome! Moreover, these things are all ordinary things here, but if you come at a different time, if you come earlier, you can still eat bear's paws! Come on, come on, I hope that the immortal master and the Taoist master will not be polite. "I heard that if I came early, there might be bear's paws to eat, and a few little Taoist priests immediately drooled, but they all looked at Daoist Xie Hong. Daoist Xie Hong looked at the dishes on the table. Xiang Sun Taishou smiled and said:

"Master Sun, these dishes are already very good, I've never eaten such good things as a few apprentices, it's just that I'm a little tired all the way, these things are a little greasy, do you have vegetables?" Sun Taishou smiled and said:

"Don't hide it from the immortal, in this place in Liaodong, there is a lot of meat, there is a saying here called stick to beat roe deer scoop net fish, pheasant falls into the soup pot. That is, this vegetable is a rare item, because the winter here is relatively long, and the grain and vegetables are only one season a year, a few months. The vegetables are gone. Daoist Xie Hong was a little disappointed.

"There's one thing, though, that the Taoist chief might like. Someone! Pick it up. Immediately another man came up with several large bowls. When Daoist Xie Hong saw the contents of the bowl, the expression on his face was even more embarrassed - it was full of blood.

"Sun Taishou, we monks abstain from killing, this ......" The smile on Sun Taishou's face became even stronger.

"Dao Chief, this head is filled with cow blood, although it is taken from a cow, but it does not take the life of a cow."

"Oh!" Sun Taishou's words aroused everyone's interest.

"When we first came to Liaodong, there was a lack of capital, not much food, many soldiers could only have four points of food a day, at this time, a soldier may be hungry and faint, with a spear pierced the neck of a cow, and then gulped the blood in its body, and after drinking, the soldier suddenly remembered that the killing of livestock in the army is to be engaged in military law, so he hurriedly took out a strip of cloth to bandage the cow. Miraculously it was born - the cow, which had been cut in the neck by a spear, actually survived, and the wound healed quickly. From then on, the soldier began to sneak into the livestock pen, give the cow a spear to the neck, and drink it well. Moreover, the technique is getting more and more sophisticated, and to play to the end, he doesn't even need a spear anymore. As long as you have a slender needle prick and a hollow straw, you can make a small opening in the neck of the cow and put the straw on it to drink. When you are full of drink, you pull out the pole, and the wound quickly solidifies and heals. If the cows are often bloodied, they won't even snort. But paper could not contain the fire, and soon the soldier's comrades knew about it, and then they all followed him to drink ox blood. Since then, more and more people have discovered their secrets. Slowly, this custom was formed. The soldiers of the Tang Army, who had drunk the blood of oxen for a winter, became stronger, more powerful, and more importantly, even their eyesight and endurance (in either aspect) became stronger. Nowadays, in our entire Liaodong, not only the low-level sergeants drink ox blood, but also our aristocratic officials. Chief, come, take a sip. Daoist Xie Hong looked at the bowl of beef blood soup with the smell of blood, and only felt like vomiting. For a moment, Daoist Xie Hong felt a dilemma. If you don't drink it, you will live up to Sun Taishou's kindness, and when you drink it, you will feel uncomfortable again.

"Drink! You're welcome, Chief. Sun Taishou probably liked to see Daoist Xie Hong's embarrassed appearance, and brought one of the bowls of ox blood to Daoist Xie Hong:

"Dao Chief, come and drink! Drink! You're welcome. "Daoist Xie Hong has been shirking. At this time, a hand took the bowl of ox blood.

"Master Sun, since the master doesn't want to drink it, let's drink this bowl of ox blood!" After saying that, the bowl of ox blood immediately bottomed out.

"Ahh Not bad! Master Sun, I don't know if there is still this cow blood? ”

"Ahh Who is this Taoist leader? ”

"Oh! This is a little apprentice! Lingguan, don't hurry up and see Lord Sun Taishou. ”

"Poor Dao has seen Master Sun." Sun Yuce looked at this Spirit Officer Dao Leader, and saw that this Spirit Officer Dao Master was burly, and there was a murderous aura on his body that seemed to be nothing-'Hmm! Isn't that the guy I thought was a bit official? Judging by his temperament, he should have been a soldier. The Lingguan Daoist didn't care about Sun Yuce's eyes.

"Master Sun, this ox blood is really delicious! I just don't know if there's any. ”

"Oh! Yes! I just don't know if the Lingguan Daoist can drink it!? Sun Yuce asked people to take out two large jars.

"Lingguan Daoist, these two jars are full of ox blood, Lingguan Daoist, you and I drink together." As he spoke, Sun Yuce grabbed one of the jars and poured it directly into himself. The spiritual official and Taoist chief did not show weakness. Directly hugged the jar and poured it down. When all the ox blood in the two jars was drunk, Sun Yuce and Lingguan Dao Chang were like evil ghosts in blood. It's unbearable to look at.

"Yes, yes! Ha ha! Joyfully! Good wine is not so enjoyable. Sun Yuce clapped his hands and praised. The Lingguan Daoist also clapped his hands and said:

"It's also a pleasure to be in the bottom. Thank you for your blood. It's just that I'm a little tired under it! Leave! ”

"Please!" The Lingguan Daoist drank too much ox blood, and Daoist Xie Hong came over to support the Lingguan Daoist. Secretly said:

"Spirit officer, thank you for today." The Spirit Officer Dao Master also said softly:

"Master, there are some things that we can't just give into." Sun Yuce's colleagues also came to help Sun Yuce.

"Master Sun, you too, these Dao Masters are people valued by His Majesty, why should you?" Sun Yuce shook his head.

"Humph! What's in it? My grandson is dead, even if he provokes these people? Are you still afraid that the gods and Buddhas in the sky will not be able to commit crimes? Li Jiancheng let Master Sanzang go to Mobei with great fanfare, and also put on a large number of majestic honor guards, which caused many people to be dissatisfied, especially in the eyes of some military generals. I feel that I am working hard outside, and I am not as majestic as those monks who chant all day long. Now, there is another Northeast Xuanfu Immortal Master who came to Liaodong, which makes many people feel - did Li Jiancheng start to pamper the monk and Taoist, if chanting alchemy can resist foreign enemies, then what do you need to do with swords, guns, swords, and halberds. When he was in Chang'an, Wei Zheng secretly expressed his dissatisfaction with Li Jiancheng, and after Li Jiancheng secretly told Wei Zheng about his intentions, Wei Zheng immediately shut up. However, outside Chang'an, many lower-level officials did not know Li Jiancheng's intentions. Sun Yuce is one of them. Therefore, many people are reluctant to provoke Li Jiancheng, so they can only bargain for some bargains from these Taoist priests. In the evening. Sun Yuce was about to sleep in loose clothes, when a man in black walked in.

"Hmmm! Bold, what people? Sun Yuce felt someone come in, and immediately pulled out the treasure knife at the head of his bed.

"Say, who are you?" The man in black didn't answer, Sun Yuce slashed directly at the man in black, the man in black kept dodging, and Sun Yuce was interested.

"Okay, great, it's been a long time since I've been so happy. Ouch! Sun Yuce was caught off guard and was kicked by the man in black. Straight to the bed. And, with his own knife around his neck.

"Good! It's really painful, Lao Tzu lost. If you want to kill me, give Lao Tzu a good time. ”

"Hahahaha! Master Sun, why bother? I'm just looking for Lord Sun to discuss. The man in black ripped off his face scarf.

"It's you, Spiritual Officer." Lingguan Daoist nodded.

"Lord Sun, I am not only the spiritual official and Taoist leader, but also the Qincha who was ordered to work with His Majesty." The Lingguan Daoist handed Sun Yuce the token of his Imperial Forest Zuo Du Lieutenant and a secret decree. After Sun Yuce saw the token and the secret decree.

"Ahh It turned out to be Lord Zhao! The subordinate is disrespectful and disrespectful! ”
