Chapter 089: Providence

Li Zaixing once suggested that Xie Guanglong take Li Tengkong to elope, but it was just a tentative joke, Li Tengkong is the daughter of the prime minister, and Xie Guanglong is an orphan who doesn't even know who his parents are, even if the two have a good impression of each other, how could Li Tengkong leave his family behind and follow Xie Guanglong to the end of the world.

Li Zaixing looked at Xie Guanglong, Xie Guanglong was a little cramped and uneasy, and his eyes were a little flustered. He rubbed his hands and hesitated for a long time before he said: "I took a break and told her that Chang'an is not suitable for cultivation, and Lushan or Hengyue have immortal qi and are more suitable for cultivation." She...... I was a little moved, but Li Xiang disagreed, he wanted to see you and ask him face to face. ”

Li Zaixing raised his eyebrows: "You mean that Li Zhenren wants to see me, not Li Xiang wants to see me?" ”

"Yes...... Is there a difference? ”

Li Zaixing's eyes rolled, and he was suddenly stunned for a moment, Xie Guanglong's hand was holding the handle of the knife, and there were faint green tendons, which was a manifestation of subconscious force. He suddenly became alert, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Of course there is a difference. ”

"What difference can it make?" Xie Guanglong flicked the knife back, let go of the handle, and put his hands behind his back.

"Li Zhenren wants to see me, which shows that she really has the heart to go to Lushan or Hengyue, and at the same time shows that she is at least not disgusted with you, and when she sees me, she just wants to give herself one more reason." Li Zaixing said lightly: "If Li Xiang wants to meet, the situation may be the opposite. ”

"If Li Xiang wants to see you, will you go?"

"Go." Li Zaixing smiled slightly: "No matter whether you can convince him in the end or not, you have to give it a try." He paused, and then smiled evilly: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger girl, right?" ”

Xie Guanglong's eyes darkened and he lowered his head.

Li Zaixing once again walked into Li Xiangfu.

Xie Guanglong was in front, he was behind, and the two walked through the front yard, along the corridor on the east side, through the triple courtyard, and until they came to the back hall.

Steward Jiang and a middle-aged man in white stood at the end of the corridor, and Xie Guanglong took a step back and walked side by side with Li Zaixing. They came to Steward Jiang and bowed their hands.

"Li Xiang is in the Moon Hall." Steward Jiang said lightly.

"There's a labor manager." Li Zaixing smiled and followed Xie Guanglong to the west, passing through a corridor about a hundred steps long, which had long passed the location of the Moon Hall, and Xie Guanglong still walked forward. Li Zaixing suddenly stopped, looked at Steward Jiang and the man in white who were following closely behind him, and said with a smile: "Yuetang is not in this direction, right?" ”

"Have you ever been to the Prime Minister's Mansion?" The corners of Steward Jiang's mouth were raised, but he couldn't see a smile. The man in white took a step forward quietly, blocking in front of Li Zaixing, Xie Guanglong stood behind Li Zaixing, one after the other, sandwiching Li Zaixing in the middle.

"Of course I've been to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Li Zaixing glanced at it and said calmly.

Steward Jiang's eyes shrank, the hand behind his back clenched into a fist, a slight sound of footsteps sounded on both sides of the corridor, and on the rockery, more than a dozen warriors armed with crossbows stood up, including Bai Xiaode, five people in white were holding spears, some were holding horizontal knives, and two were holding Mo knives, and they tacitly surrounded Li Zaixing.

Li Zaixing slowly turned around, looked around, his gaze stopped on Xie Guanglong's face for a moment, then retracted it, fell back on Steward Jiang's face, and grinned: "Steward Jiang is really a noble person who forgets things, have you forgotten that a few days ago, I came to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Xie Da to confront each other?" ”

"But you didn't come to Moon Hall that day."

"I'm just answering your question about whether you've ever been to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Li Zaixing sat down on the railing on the side of the porch, crossed Erlang's legs, hugged his knees with one hand, and looked relaxed. "As for the Moon Hall, I really haven't been here, but I've seen Li Xiangfu countless times on the bell tower of the Bodhi Temple, if I can't even guess the location of the Moon Hall, isn't it too stupid?"

Steward Jiang was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a while. Without waiting for him to think about it, Li Zaixing pointed to the west courtyard where they were about to go: "In the Buddhist temples of the world, the bell towers are all on the east side, but the bell tower of the Bodhi Temple is on the west side. If the Moon Hall is in the West Courtyard, I'm afraid the bell tower of the Bodhi Temple should be built to the southwest corner, right? ”

Steward Jiang's face twitched, he avoided talking about it, waved his hand, and someone brought a low table with pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it. Jiang steward said: "Please Li Lang write about his body, the geometry of Nian Geng, where is his hometown, how many parents and brothers are in the family, where he lives now, why he makes a living, one by one." ”

Li Zaixing sighed: "It seems that it is really difficult to see Li Xiang." As he spoke, he picked up his pen and began to write one stroke at a time. After about a meal, he wrote his figure. Steward Jiang looked at it carefully, his face was a little pale, he nodded and motioned for Li Zaixing to wait, and went north along the corridor.

Li Zaixing clapped his hands, sat with his legs crossed, and took a good time to look at the guards of the Li Mansion who were waiting around him, especially the six white-clothed people, he looked at them without concealing it at all, seeing that they were very uncomfortable, but they couldn't attack.

He turned his back to Xie Guanglong and didn't look at him.

In the pavilion in the northwest corner, Li Linfu sat in the center, Li Xiu and Li Tengkong accompanied him, and there was a wooden board on the stone table in the middle, on which there was a poem carved out by a knife, which was the poem left by Li Zaixing, "Ten years of sharpening a sword", Steward Jiang walked in, put the figure that Li Zaixing had just written in front of Li Linfu, and then took a step back.

Li Linfu stared at the plank and figure for a long time, stroked his beard, and said softly: "It's not like it." ”

"Not at all." Li Tengkong said: "There is almost no resemblance in these words, and the temperament of the whole character is far from the same, it is impossible for one person to write it." Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy is like a gentleman, introverted and inviolable. And his words are like spears and halberds, overflowing with murderous energy, heroic and lacking in self-defense. ”

Li Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "Yan Zhenqing just lived in Bodhi Temple a few days ago, and it is said that I had a good conversation with him, will it ......?"

"This is not Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy either." Li Tengkong retorted: "Not to mention whether a person can change his calligraphy in a few days, even if he has a calligraphy name like Yan Zhenqing, how can his calligraphy be far from Yan Zhenqing?" ”

Li Xiu was just about to say more, Li Linfu waved his hand, glanced at Li Tengkong, and laughed softly: "Tengkonger, you love the house and Wu." ”

Li Tengkong was stunned for a moment, then his pretty face turned red, he pushed Li Linfu's shoulder, and said coquettishly: "Daddy, I'm afraid that you will kill the wrong person and cause trouble." He is not an ordinary person, he is a disciple of the Sokcho Divine Monk. ”

"I know." Li Linfu bowed slightly, and said with some annoyance: "Please let him in, I want to hear why he came up with this idea, to trick my vacant child out of Chang'an." ”

"I suggest that Li Zhenren go to Lushan or Hengyue to practice, not only because Lushan and Hengyue are full of spiritual energy, beautiful scenery, and many practitioners, but also because Chang'an is in chaos and may usher in a catastrophe."

Standing in front of Li Linfu's father and son, Li Zaixing talked eloquently. He was very surprised, it turned out that Li Linfu was such a handsome old guy with such a demeanor. He is nearly six feet tall, with a slender figure, a Chinese face, a sparse long white beard, and slightly melancholy eyes, compared to Li Bai with a big beard, he can at least be regarded as dignified.

Who would have imagined that the notorious traitor looked like this, which is far from the big white face in Peking Opera.

"Havoc? Will there be a catastrophe in Chang'an? Li Xiu snorted and disagreed.

Li Zaixing ignored him and just looked at Li Linfu quietly. Li Linfu didn't smile, a flash of fear flashed in his eyes, as if he had seen the terrible scene of Chang'an City being engulfed in war. After a while, he sighed lightly and regained his spirits: "Young man, be careful when you speak, otherwise you will be accused of a false rumor to confuse the public, and your good life will be ruined." ”

Li Zaixing smiled: "If that's the case, then I may be able to leave a message in history." ”

"Maybe, your name will be in the Five Elements Chronicle." Li Linfu waved his hand, not intending to continue on this issue. "Why can't I practice in Chang'an, I have to go to remote places like Lushan and Hengyue."

"Because it's only quiet in the middle of nowhere." Li Zaixing said: "Whether it is Taoism in the Tang Dynasty, or Esoteric Buddhism from Tianzhu, or Zoroastrianism and Nestorianism from Persia, we all need to settle people's hearts. If you want to be stable, you don't just need to be unable to hear sounds, but you also need to be free from the troubles of the world and not be burdened by worldly things. Therefore, in the early stage of cultivation, remote mountains and trees are the first choice of places, and even more, it is necessary to choose cave dwellings in the barren mountains and mountains to practice penance. Compared with those ascetics, building a house in Lushan or Hengshan is not far from the world. ”

Li Linfu looked at Li Zaixing in surprise: "I can't imagine that in addition to Taoism and Esotericism, you are also familiar with Zoroastrianism and Nestorianism?" ”

"It's a coincidence, and it's also my interest, so I've inquired about it." Li Zaixing smiled: "That's all, let Li Xiangjian smile." ”

"You are young, but you are interested in cultivation, could it be that you also want to learn from your master Sokcho Monk in the future and escape into the empty door?"

"I can't learn from the master." Li Zaixing shook his head with a straight face: "The Tang Dynasty is coming, how can I meditate on the Tao, sit back and watch the lives suffer, so I have to walk in the red dust, and use thunderbolt means to practice the bodhisattva's heart." ”

Li Xiu stood on the other side, looked at Li Caixing, and then looked at the figure on the case, savoring Li Zaixing's words, and suddenly shuddered. He frowned, rubbed his eyes, and shuddered.

After Li Zaixing left, Li Linfu looked at the eaves of Daming Palace on Longshou Mountain in the distance, and was silent. Li Tengkong saw his thoughts, walked up to him, hugged his arm, and said softly: "Father, don't listen to him, at first glance, he is just a frivolous and ignorant young man, just asking for fame." ”

"Vacate, he's different." Li Linfu patted Li Tengkong's hand: "He is a disciple of the Sokcho Master, these may be the arrangements of the Sokcho Master, or they may be ...... O mercy of God. ”

Li Tengkong was also silent, she hugged Li Linfu's trembling arm, leaned her face on his shoulder, and tears poured out silently.

"Daddy, I can't bear you."

"I can't bear you either." Li Linfu sighed lightly and muttered: "Don't worry, don't worry, wait for me to think about it again, maybe...... There are other ways. ”
