Although the name of this lunch dish is not good, the taste is much better than Chai Yantan guessed. Two dishes, there is cabbage stewed tofu in front of him, fried mushrooms in front of the third brother, and a plate of coarse noodles and steamed buns in the middle.

At this time, the little Taoist priest brought a soup to the toothless Taoist.

Chai Yantan immediately stopped drying, "Where's Xiao Wang's soup?" ”

The little Taoist priest who served the food explained in vain, "This is the soup left over from the morning, and I dare not serve it to the two distinguished guests." ”

…… Well, he didn't drink what other people left, Chai Yantan ate cabbage and tofu, and the more he chatted with the nameless Taoist, the more speculative he became, and he hated to see each other late.

The third master still didn't say much, just listened quietly. When it was time to leave, the nameless Taoist chief was still explaining the celestial phases to Chai Yantan, "Today is the twenty-third, the last quarter moon, and the moon rises from the west of the middle sky. ”

"Really? Xiao Wang thought that the moon rose in the east every night. Chai Yantan listened with great interest.

The toothless Taoist chief smiled and bowed his head, very considerate, "It's not wrong for the king of the county to think so, the east and the west are relative." The way of heaven is reversed, and the moon goes westward, so the moon rises from the east and sets in the west, but the specific direction of this 'east' is different. ”

"Makes sense! Third brother, this Taoist is really interesting! "The more Chai Yantan listens, the more interesting he feels, this Dao Chang is very considerate, no matter what you say, he can always help you get through, such a person The fourth prince likes it very much!

The third master bowed slightly, and only asked, "Are you going back to the city, or going back to the fifth village with me?" ”

The third brother is so boring! Chai Yantan took the whip in disappointment, "Go back to the city!" ”

After the third master and Toothless said goodbye, he returned to the fifth village to eat tea and read books, and stole half a day of leisure. Xuan San endured and endured, and still asked, "Third Master, is he really Zhang Tianshi?" But this age difference is too much! No wonder the Holy One thinks he has the recipe for immortality. ”

The third master was noncommittal, "See if he comes here tonight to admire the moon, we will know." ”

Xuan San then understood that the third master was not very sure.

After the third master had dinner and went back to the study to read a few pages, the toothless Taoist chief arrived, and Xuan San was deeply shaken, ready to watch the battle.

After entering the study, Toothless Dao bowed and saluted, "Zhang Zhaocheng of Shangqing Palace, meet the prince." ”

"Click!" Xuan San heard that he came up and reported the number directly, and he was so shocked that his hand tightened, and he folded the third master's brush. Then, wooden, this is the pen that the girl gave to the third master, and he is going to finish playing again......

The third master got up and raised his hand to support him, "Heavenly Master is exempt." ”

Zhang Zhaocheng got up and said with a smile, "Poor Dao is late at night, please forgive me." ”

The same is laughter, the toothless Dao long smile is as clear as a mountain spring, but the heavenly master is free and easy to see through the wisdom of the void. In addition to looking the same, there is no way to connect the two of them.

The third master also smiled, "The Taoist is really easy for my father to find." ”

"I am ashamed of the poor road, I have been like a rat crossing the street for more than ten years, trembling." Zhang Zhaocheng said ashamedly.

Xuan San saw his radiant appearance, and he didn't see where he looked like a mouse at all, but Gao Cangjie and other dozens of internal guards have been looking for him for more than ten years, but he is really like a mouse and a snake.

No wonder the saint wants to find him a recipe for longevity, the Heavenly Master is over the age of old but born with such a crane hair and a childish face, whoever sees it will also believe that he has a secret recipe.

Why did he avoid the saint, why did he hide all these years, why did he cheat to death and get out, and why did he take the initiative to jump out again? Xuan San was very curious, waiting for the third master to hurry up and ask.

However, the third master didn't have any curiosity, and only asked, "What is the matter with the Taoist chief entering Beijing this time, looking for Xiao Nuan and Xiao Wang?" ”

Xuansan......

Zhang Zhaocheng said with a smile, "Poor Dao didn't plan to find Jiuqing, but it was only a chance encounter that revealed his identity slightly. Jiuqing is smart and understands immediately. ”

At that time, Xiao Nuan was naturally the only intelligent and not arrogant woman in the world. She recognized the identity of the Heavenly Master, and only used a few walnuts to send a letter to herself, and the third master was proud.

Xiao Nuan sent a letter to say: The salt-baked walnuts taste good, but now that the weather is wet, let him roast them over the fire and eat them.

"Heavenly Wetness" is the Heavenly Master; "Walnut", kernel in it. The meaning is obvious, that the Heavenly Master has arrived, and the people are inside. As for which "inside", the third master will know as soon as he asks Xiao Nuan's itinerary.

"Roast and then eat", that is, there is no urgency in this matter, if he is interested, he can go and meet.

Of course, the third master was interested in the purpose of the Heavenly Master's entry into Beijing this time, so as soon as the city gate was opened today, he came out. In fact, the third master also understood, saying that he had come to see the Heavenly Master by himself, but it was better to say that the Heavenly Master wanted to find him for something.

Otherwise, with Zhang Zhaocheng's ability, it is impossible for Xiao Nuan to see the horse's feet. Zhang Zhaocheng revealed his identity to Xiao Nuan, who was about to leave Beijing, and was looking for himself related to Xiao Nuan.

Seeing that the third master was silent, he just looked at him quietly. Zhang Zhaocheng understood that this third prince had a completely different temperament from his father, Emperor Jianlong, and had no curiosity, so he didn't ask anything. Zhang Zhaocheng said bluntly, "Poor Dao entered Beijing this time to take Yuan Tiancheng's life. Please ask the prince to be accommodating and let Yuan Tiancheng's body be examined by the poor road. ”

The third master immediately understood, "You mean that Yuan Tiancheng will cheat death and get out?" ”

Zhang Zhaocheng bowed, "After he confirms that this case will not involve more disciples, he will commit suicide in prison." When the Dali Temple confirms that he is dead, they will send his body out, and then he will wake up and live incognito. What Poor Dao has to do is to clean up the portal according to the agreement he made twenty years ago. ”

"Xiao Wang asked him to cut off his head and cut him off, so you don't have to take this risk." The third master said. After cutting off his head, he didn't believe that Yuan Tiancheng could recover from it!

This is indeed a very thorough method, Zhang Zhaocheng said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, it's just that Poor Dao once promised Yuan Tiancheng's master that if Yuan Tiancheng goes astray, Poor Dao will personally clean the door for him." ”

This matter is not difficult to do, the third master nodded and agreed, and said tentatively, "On Qinming Mountain in June, why didn't you directly clean up the portal?" ”

Zhang Zhaocheng directly admitted that it was him, "At that time, it was not to take his life, but just to make him no longer alchemy." ”

Zhang Zhaocheng looked at the third master quietly, waiting for him to ask. Unexpectedly, the third master only asked one thing, "Chen Xiaonuan is the ninth disciple you designated for the master of the Blameless Daoist?" ”

Zhang Zhaocheng corrected, "Taoism is facing the catastrophe of life and death, and the poor road is walking in all directions to find a way to solve it." When you meet a spiritual disciple, you will leave a mark for the guiltless, and Jiuqing is just one of them. Accepting her as an apprentice without blame is the fate between them. ”

The third master asked again, "Has the calamity that the Taoist chief said has been broken?" ”

Zhang Zhaocheng cried and laughed, "Most of it has gone." ”
