The next day, Zhuge Jin and Qiao Zhiyi left Jiangxia together, and when leaving, Liu Xun sent dozens of jars of Sijun wine and some Shu brocade to Qiao Gong.

"Brother Xun cherishes, Yiyi will go back to Jiangdong", Qiao Zhiyi looked at Liu Xun affectionately, and wanted to cry.

"Remember my brother's words, go back and act according to the plan, we will see each other again in ten days", Liu Xun whispered in his ear.

Qiao Zhiyi said goodbye with tears, and Liu Xun chanted in a long voice: "The blue clouds are in the sky, the yellow leaves are in the ground, the west wind is tight, and the northern geese are returning to the south." Who is drunk with frost in Xiaolai? Always away from tears. ”

Seeing the lonely sail in the distance, the blue sky was gone, Liu Xun turned around, and he didn't feel a little stunned.

On the tenth day, Gan Ning led the elite sailors to escort Liu Xun across the river and went straight to Ganlu Temple.

Zhou Yu had already ambushed the army in Ganlu Temple, waiting for Liu Xun to arrive.

"The revenge of attacking Jiangxia and the hatred of taking his wife will be avenged together today", Zhou Yu secretly rejoiced in his heart, "Even if the surname Liu has wings, he will not be able to escape justice today." ”

While he was rejoicing, suddenly his generals reported: "Qiao Gong is here." ”

"What is Gong Qiao doing here? We didn't invite him. Zhou Yu said angrily.

"He said he came to see his son-in-law."

"Thoughts stand in the way."

"The governor forgives the sins, and the subordinates can't do it."

"Why?"

"Because with them, there are also Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Wu Guotai and Sun Shangxiang," the general replied.

"Ah, how can this be?" , Zhou Yu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, "Hurry up and report to the lord, things have changed." At the same time, the order was sent down, so that the ambush army could be ambushed in the backyard of the temple, and it was not allowed to act rashly without my order. ”

As soon as the order was passed down, Wu Guotai and his party had already walked towards Ganlu Temple, Xiao Qiao's eyes were sharp, he had already seen Zhou Yu, and called out sweetly: "Brother Zhou Yu, what a coincidence, when I went back to Jiangdong, I looked for you everywhere, but I met you here." It's really a place in life where we don't meet! ”

Zhou Yu saw that it was too late to avoid it, so he had to say with a smile: "Sister Xiao Qiao, I heard that you went back to Jiangdong, and I was about to go to see you, but I met here unexpectedly." ”

"It seems that Brother Zhou Yu is waiting for his little sister here, my brother is really a caring person."

"That's, that's", Zhou Yu smiled bitterly, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Zhou Yu, why don't you stay in your naval army governor's mansion, what are you doing here if you have nothing to do?" Wu Guotai's face was gloomy, and when she saw Zhou Yu, she was angry.

"I heard that the old lady was going to come to Ganlu Temple to offer incense, Zhou Yu was afraid that it would not be safe, so she came to protect her", Zhou Yu had an idea.

"It's hard for you to have this filial piety", Wu Guotai's expression eased.

Sun Ce received a letter from Zhou Yu, and when he was behind the temple, he heard that his mother Wu Guotai had suddenly arrived, so he had to come over.

"Brother-in-law, early in the morning, you just ran to Ganlu Temple to offer incense, but you are really pious", Xiao Qiao said with a smile.

"Brother-in-law will help you ask the Buddha for your blessing and let you have a good marriage."

"Ce'er, there is a good marriage right now, and my mother is here for this", Wu Guotai glanced at his son and said meaningfully.

"The child doesn't understand what his mother means", Sun Ce deliberately pretended to be confused.

"Son, some things can be confused, and some things can't be confused. My mother has followed your deceased father for so many years, and she has seen too many people and things, and life is unpredictable", the old lady said earnestly.

"There is a mystery in my mother's words", Sun Ce was suddenly shocked, in his impression, his mother was an extraordinary woman.

During this time, the old lady believed in the way of the Heavenly Master all day long, and seemed to ignore miscellaneous matters, but in fact, any of the major events in Jiangdong could escape her ears and eyes.

"Mother is old, how can she understand the current trend of the world?" Another thought prevailed again, "No, when I see the opportunity to act, Liu Xun still has to die." ”

But Sun Shangxiang was straightforward: "Sister Xiao Qiao, I'll see my brother-in-law later, don't forget to introduce me to me." ”

"What are you doing here, you want to steal it."

The two joked, Sun Ce heard it in his ears, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Mother really came for Liu Xun, she is so well-informed, it must have been Xiao Qiao who informed her." This guy who eats inside and out, hasn't married yet, so he helped Liu Xun first. ”

He didn't want to think about it, how could there be a sister-in-law who didn't look to her husband, but to her brother-in-law.

A middle-aged monk greeted him, "Amitabha, the noble man came to the small temple, please serve tea inside." ”

"What do you call a master? The abbot here has Master Kong, why didn't he see it? Wu Guotai said.

"Amitabha, the poor monk is called the three sexes. Senior Brother Likong wandered and let the poor monk temporarily take the position of abbot", the middle-aged monk put his hands together and said.

"What are the three sexes?" Wu Guotai was puzzled.

"Knowledge, insight, and clarity are the three natures," the middle-aged monk explained.

"I see, the master is not very old, but he can see the nature clearly, is well versed in the three flavors of Buddhism, and has been taught by the old body", Wu Guotai said.

"Don't dare, Buddhism is as deep as the sea, the little monk is just a little peep at the skin, noble, please", the middle-aged monk said humbly.

Sun Ce saw that Wu Guotai and a monk were so polite, and muttered in his heart: "It's just a monk, this kind of magic stick can be seen everywhere, you can be too polite with him, we are the lord of Jiangdong." ”

Wu Guotai and his entourage walked into the temple, and the three monks asked their subordinate Shami to serve fragrant tea.

Wu Guotai talked with the three monks, and only felt that the other party was spit out pearls and had a splendid belly, which was very extraordinary and very admirable.

Xiao Qiao dragged Sun Shangxiang around, but when he arrived in the backyard, he was blocked, and a little monk said that it was a forbidden place for Buddhism, and outsiders were not allowed to disturb it.

Xiao Qiao knew in his heart that there would be ambushes in the backyard.

Looking at those monks again, many monks have bulging robes, obviously wearing armor inside, and their faces are murderous, not like Buddhist disciples at all.

"Sure enough, as Brother Xun expected, these little monks were all dressed as Jiangdong soldiers and horses, and Zhou Yu really had a secret murderous intention. It's a pity that since my aunt and grandmother have seen through it, it won't be so easy to make a move," Xiao Qiao said secretly.

About an hour later, Liu Xun led the Gan Ning sailor to arrive.

Gan Ning wanted to take someone to accompany Liu Xun into the temple, Liu Xun waved his hand, "No, wait for my signal, even if this Ganlu Temple is Longtan Tiger's Den, I, Liu, will break into it." ”

Someone has long reported that Wu Guotai and Sanhe Shang, "There is a general-like person outside who has led the army to arrive." ”

"Your good son-in-law is very courageous, but let you, an old man, wait for him here, the shelf is a little too big, and you will have to repair him later", Wu Guotai said.

"Liu Xun is a pastor of Yizhou, a general, and he is busy with military affairs, so it is reasonable that he is a little late", Xiao Qiao hurriedly excused Liu Xun.

Hearing the word "Liu Xun", Sanhe Shang raised his eyebrows, and then looked as usual.

"Hehe, it's really a girl's extrovert, brother, you see that Yiyi hasn't married yet, and she has begun to look towards the man", Wu Guotai said happily.

"Let's go, let's go meet him, and by the way, see what this son-in-law looks like?" Joe fair.

"Just go to the door and greet you."

The first thing Liu Xun saw was Xiao Qiao who appeared at the temple gate, and Xiao Qiao was waving to him with a smile.

The second thing that caught my eye was a beautiful girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, with fair skin, tall figure, and a pair of phoenix eyes.

This was followed by an old man, an old lady and a middle-aged monk.

Looking at the appearance of the old man, it is similar to the Qiao Gong described by Xiao Qiao before, and it should be Qiao Gong who is not far from ten.

The old lady has a graceful and luxurious bearing, and her steps are steady, as if she has martial arts.

The most surprising thing is the monk, this person is introverted, his eyes are bright, and he knows that his internal strength is unfathomable.

"In the land of Jiangdong, there is such a person, this person's martial arts have at least reached the realm of strength, and I don't know whether he is an enemy or a friend. I entered the temple alone, did I underestimate the heroes of the world", Liu Xun was secretly frightened, the matter had come to this, but it was inconvenient to return, and he went straight up at the moment.

"Brother Xun, you're finally here", Xiao Qiao greeted him regardless of everyone's eyes, and enthusiastically introduced, "This is Sun Shangxiang's sister." ”

"Xiangxiang girl is so beautiful", Liu Xun called sweetly, took out a jade bracelet casually, and put it in Sun Shangxiang's hand.

"Brother-in-law is so generous", Sun Shangxiangjiao laughed, and the autumn water flowed and flew a flattering eye.

"Xiao Nizi, be respectful", Xiao Qiao quietly pinched Sun Shangxiang and glanced at Liu Xun again.

"This is my brother-in-law's mother, Mrs. Guotai," Xiao Qiao added.

"Aunt Wanfu, some mustaches are thin, not respectful, please smile", Liu Xunluo bowed slightly and presented a copy of "The Teachings of the Heavenly Master".

"The virtuous nephew has a heart", Wu Guotai took the book and smiled.

"This is my father," said Little Joe, with a wink.

Liu Xun knelt down on his knees and bowed: "My father-in-law is above, please accept my son-in-law." ”

Qiao Gong was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and hurriedly picked it up, and said busily: "Virtuous son-in-law, please get up, don't be polite." ”

As soon as these words came out, it could be regarded as confirming the identity of Liu Xun's little son-in-law.

"I don't know what this master is called?" Liu Xun looked at the middle-aged monk.

"The poor monk is called the three sexes, and he is the abbot of the temple", the middle-aged monk announced a Buddha name, "Amitabha." ”

"It turned out to be the master of the three sexes, disrespectful, disrespectful. Dare to ask the master, what are the three natures? ”

"Knowledge, insight, and clarity are the three natures."

"Good law, intellectuality is the first realm of martial arts, looking at the mountain is the mountain, and looking at the water is the water."

"Seeing nature is the second realm, looking at the mountain is not the mountain, and seeing the water is not the water."

"Clarity is the third realm, looking at water is still a mountain, looking at water is still water. The master's name directly points to the root of martial arts, and in the end it is the four words of 'clear mind', which is great, it seems that the master is really a master. ”

"The poor monk is just a person outside the party, and he can't afford to be so praised by the general."

"Dare to ask, what was the name of the layman before the master became a monk?"

"The past, the flashes of light, like a dream, like dew like electricity, why do you mention it? The three sexes are empty, the general is empty, and this Ganlu Temple is still empty. The world asks the Buddha to give nectar, but how do you know that the Buddha is not far away from himself, and the nectar is in your heart", the three sexes did not answer Liu Xun's words positively, but talked about Zen.

"The master is no longer an ordinary person, it is Liu Xun who is presumptuous."

"General, please serve tea inside."
