At this time, the man who was protecting the little girl on the side of the road handed the little girl into the hands of the woman who was already scared to tears, smiled at the little girl, turned to the little Taoist and hugged his fists and said: "Little Taoist, it's a man, a certain name is Long San, can you make a friend?" ”

The little Taoist priest turned his head to see that it was the man who saved the child, and said with a smile: "Of course, the third brother Long is the real man, and the poor Daoist Yuan Tiangang has been admired for a long time." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" The old Taoist priest also came over and said with a smile: "Well, yes, but he is a man, the Taoist is happy today, Brother Long, go, please eat and drink!" ”

The three of them said lively, and the onlookers saw that there would be no more **, and they dispersed one after another, only the unlucky messenger was still lying on the belly of the dead horse and couldn't get up.

A man walked slowly to the front of the soldier, took out a dozen five-baht coins from the jacket and handed them to the soldier, and said: "The hero does not suffer the loss in front of him, hurry up and take the money to treat the disease, if you delay the delivery of the letter again, it is estimated that you will really die." ”

The soldier looked up in surprise and looked at the person in front of him, coarse clothes and small hats, dressed as a subordinate, his face was black, and he didn't know how many days he hadn't washed it, and he suddenly felt a little disgusting. But listening to what this man said is too reasonable, the military horse is dead, at most a stick, if the delivery of the letter is delayed, it will really be dead.

"Off the line, off the line!" The soldier who had knocked out a few teeth came out of his mouth with two words out of his mouth, which turned out to be thank you. Then he struggled to get up, glanced at the little Taoist priest fiercely, remembered his appearance, and limped towards the side of the street. The dead horses were left in the streets, and no one cared for them.

After Long San and the three of them watched the man walk away, they looked at the person who gave the money.

Then Long San walked over with a smile and said, "Li Gongzi, what kind of money did you give him, you did it yourself, you wasted your money." ”

Yuan Tiangang stared at his eyes and opened his mouth, and pointed at Li Gongzi very impolitely, not knowing what was wrong for a while. Li Gongzi smiled and said, "Don't say it, just in your heart." ”

Lao Dao frowned and said, "Why is it just yourself and others?" We're here to rescue you, what's going on with you. ”

His words were also said to this Li Gongzi, which made Long San stunned, it turned out that all three of them knew this Li Gongzi.

Li Gongzi smiled bitterly: "It's hard to say, it's rare that Ding Daochang and Tiangang can help me from Luoyang, but now I am very short of people, and I need two helps." It's not clear for a while, so let's find a place to sit down and have a good talk. ”

"Well, I just met this strong man, Master Dao, I am happy, then let's go, find a place to eat and drink first!" Lao Dao waved his hand and led the three of them to the front for a short distance, and then turned into a small alley.

It seems that this old road is quite familiar with Daxing City, and he found a tavern in the alley with a familiar car.

Not to mention, don't look at the tavern is very small, and it is in the depths of the alley, but the business is very good. It was just morning, and it was almost full.

Li Gongzi said with a smile: "How did Daoist Ding know about this place, it looks good!" ”

"I've been drinking here twenty years ago, so how could I forget. This is definitely the best place to eat and drink in Daxing City. Lao Dao sighed with some sighs.

Twenty years? Li Gongzi looked at Lao Dao's age in surprise, Lao Dao should have been a young man twenty years ago!

Long San didn't have so many ideas, and when he saw the tavern, he laughed and said: "Oh, I've spoiled a certain hunger these days, Xiao Er, hurry, let's go to two jars of wine first." ”

This is a wine barrel, and the two jars are still on first. Only Yuan Tiangang has been looking at Li Gongzi, and his heart is itching, he just wants to ask.

Li Gongzi seemed to see through his heart, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, let's sit down and talk while eating, and tell you slowly." ”

The four of them sat at a small table a little closer to the inside, Li Gongzi seemed to be very unaccustomed to such a low table, and asked Xiao Er if there was a high table. Xiao Er shook his head and said, "Everything here has been there since the time of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and it has not been changed until now." ”

Since this was the case, Li Gongzi didn't ask anything else, and asked Xiao Er to order a few delicious snacks before he started talking to the three of them.

Long San knew at this time that the old Taoist priest's name was Ding Yanping, and his eyes suddenly widened. Ding Yanping! The powerful figure back then has now become a Taoist priest, and he drinks at the same table with himself. At that time, the Dragon King was a little excited, and asked Ding Yanping a lot of things in one breath, whether he broke seven cities overnight, whether he captured the Turkic king with the remnants of the defeated army, and became Ding Yanping's iron fan in an instant.

Seeing Long San so excited, Yuan Tiangang was also happy for his master, but he remembered another master Yuan Shoucheng who was still in Luoyang. That's a legend, and he's proud to have two masters.

So he also got involved and chatted with Ryusan. Li Gongzi on the side was not angry, but just smiled and listened to the three of them talk about the past.

After the wine and food were served, Li Gongzi asked the three of them to eat first and talk slowly.

The four of them talked while eating, and the three of them began to listen to Li Gongzi tell about him, and were surprised and miraculous by Li Gongzi's miraculous encounter. Along the way, Ding Yanping thought about all kinds of possibilities, but he didn't expect to meet Li Gongzi in the city and sit together for dinner. It doesn't seem that tricky at all.

After drinking the second jar of wine, Long San wanted to call for wine again, but Li Gongzi looked at him and said, "We still have things to do, if you want to drink, wait for the evening, I will ask the third brother to drink enough." ”

Long Sanshengsheng controlled his gluttony, nodded at Li Gongzi and said, "Then listen to Li Gongzi." ”

Yuan Tiangang looked at the five big and three thick Long San, and then looked at the thin Li Gongzi, and he didn't understand why this Long San listened to Li Gongzi's words like this, and heard Li Gongzi just say that this Long San seemed to be his enemy at first.

Ding Yanping has always maintained a state of eating and drinking, and he didn't pay attention to the conversation between Li Gongzi and Long San at all.

The four of them chatted for a long time, and finally Li Gongzi said his plan and needed the help of Ding Yanping and Yuan Tiangang.

Ding Yanping nodded, and agreed to come down. Li Gongzi finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was weak alone, and now with a strong foreign aid like Ding Yanping joining, things will be much easier.

After the four of them finished eating, Li Gongzi thought for a while and asked Ding Yanping if there was a safer place to stay in Daxing City.

Ding Yanping said with a smile: "We Taoist priests don't go to the guest house, and we usually go wherever we go, and we will place an order at the Taoist temple there, and we will eat, drink and live." ”

Li Gongzi's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "Then I will also pretend to be a little Taoist priest and follow Daoist Ding to place an order, yes, the Taoist temple is indeed very safe." ”

Ding Yanping laughed and said: "Well, yes, it works, then let's go to the Taoist Temple to place an order." ”

The four of them giggled out of the tavern, followed Ding Yanping out of the alley, and walked for a long time, and finally saw a Taoist temple not far in front of them, and they could see the big three words on the plaque on the Taoist temple: "Liuxian Temple".

What a name! Li Gongzi thought in his heart, aren't the four of them immortals if they live in?

Ding Yanping didn't stop, but turned to Li Gongzi and said: "You don't need to change your clothes, it's just right, just say that you are a Taoist priest in Youfang, but you have to wronged Li Gongzi, and you will be the apprentice of the Taoist for the time being." ”

Li Gongzi said with a smile: "What else can I be wronged by being Daoist Ding's apprentice, others can't ask for it!" ”

Long San also smiled: "It's still Li Gongzi who can speak, so he won't say anything, Ding Daochang said what to do if he tells me, I will do it." ”

The three of them laughed when they said a word, and after a while, they arrived at the door of Liuxian Temple.

It is also said that from a distance, this Taoist temple is not very conspicuous in Daxing City, but when I arrived at the door, I found that the Taoist temple was much bigger than I imagined, and the gate alone could be compared with the main gate of Luoyang Taishou Mansion.

Li Gongzi looked around the Taoist temple for a long time, and then said: "Daoist Ding, is this Taoist temple also available twenty years ago?" ”

Ding Yanping nodded and said: "Yes, it was there twenty years ago, but it was a very small broken place at that time, and it didn't have today's momentum at all!" ”

Yuan Tiangang shouted: "Master, it turns out that the Liuxian Temple you said is here, and you were a monk here back then?" ”

"What?" Li Gongzi was also surprised when he heard it, it turned out that this was the place where Ding Yanping first became a monk, and according to the words of later generations, this was his alma mater!

Ding Yanping glanced at Yuan Tiangang and said, "How can a monk shout and scream, stop!" ”

Yuan Tiangang sighed, and then stopped talking, but his eyes kept looking around.

Long San really didn't say a word, his voice was too loud, and he didn't look like a monk, so it was better to talk less.

The four of them came to the gate while thinking, there was no little Taoist priest to welcome guests, and the gate was also open, but they didn't see a pilgrim who came in to worship incense, not even a Taoist priest.

The four of them entered the front hall compound smoothly, with two tall stone incense towers on both sides, and then unknown flowers and plants.

The front is the Sanqing Palace, the door is still open, and there is no half a figure. This is Ding Yanping also frowned, this situation is not right, how can the huge Taoist temple not even have a Taoist child?

He walked a few steps quickly, entered the main hall, the three Qing statues stood high in front of the main hall, the next is a long incense platform, a large and two small incense burners are polished brightly, there are many incense in the furnace that have not been burned out, wisps of green smoke drift to every corner of the hall.

Everything is so peaceful, but unfortunately it lacks popularity.

Where have all the people gone? Ding Yanping looked around, but there was no half-figure. This is not normal!

Long San couldn't help but say at this time: "Daoist Ding, there is a noise behind you, why don't you go over and take a look?" ”

Ding Yanping turned his head to look at Long San in surprise, and Long San smiled: "A certain ear is good since he was a child, and he shouldn't be misheard." ”

As soon as he said this, Ding Yanping knew that this was a modest statement, and his ears could hear so far, which meant that Long San must have specially practiced his ears.

didn't say anything, nodded towards Long San, and took the lead in walking through the Sanqing Hall to the back, and the remaining three followed closely behind.
