Chapter 20 There is an old man
Asking Tianlou a few times before, because there was no disruption from Fang Shi, I didn't expect it to be so smooth this time. The country of the Han Dynasty for more than 200 years will be usurped by a relative. However, the founding emperor of the new dynasty also had some strategies for governing the country, and after the change of dynasty, he implemented a series of harsh laws such as the Jingtian Law and the abolition of the private slave trade.
Although there are still some people who don't like Wang Mang's behavior of running into the Han Dynasty, just looking at his actions, compared to Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty, he is shocked I don't know how many times. It's just that I don't know if the change of dynasty has provoked God, Wang Mang's new dynasty has been plagued by natural disasters since the day it was established.
In addition to natural disasters, bandits have also begun to be reported from various places. Although Wang Mang sent troops to levy, there were too many people who rebelled in the world, and the Xiongnu, who had already disappeared, appeared in the area of the Hetao generation. began to harass the people there, and for a while, under internal and external troubles, the army of the new dynasty began to be exhausted.
Although there are signs of erosion in the world, Chang'an City is still peaceful. The market is still buying and selling as before, and there is no trace of turbulence in the current situation. And Wu Mian, Guangzhi and the two monsters have been living in Yan Zai's private house, after Wang Mang ascended the throne, he once gave Yan Zai an official position as a general of the Imperial Forest Army. It's just that he still thinks of this person who is the same era as Xu Fu wrongly, Yan Zheng just likes to be a guest in the house of a big nobleman. Entering the dynasty as an official is suspected of affecting the national fortunes, not to mention that the current Wang Mang has already manipulated the national fortunes under the command of the lord of the Heavenly Tower, and now in such a situation, Yan Zheng naturally does not dare to wade into this troubled water.
At the moment, Yan Zai said that he was not sick, but Wang Mang was a person who missed the past. There was no reluctance to rob Yan Zheng, and a mansion in front of his subterfuge was given to this former doorman.
Jun Ciyan naturally didn't dare to resign, and after receiving the mansion at the moment, he discussed it with Wu Mian and Guangzhi, and moved to the mansion with a few servants who were used to it. Originally, Yan Zheng also wanted to take Wu Mian and them to move to a new home together, but Bai Wuqiu was still worried about whether he would return or not, and he was worried that the old guy would not find them when he came back. At the moment, he refused to move away with Yan Zheng.
And Wu Mian had no intention of moving away, except for Yan Zheng who had to move out, several of them still lived in Yan Zheng's old house.
Originally, according to Wu Mian's thoughts, after Wang Mang established a new dynasty, he asked Tianlou to appear at this time. What they didn't expect was that Wen Tianlou was the same as the vanished Fang Shiyi, except for one appearance in the palace that night, it never appeared in front of Wu Mian's eyes again.
In this way, Wu Mian and several people lived in Chang'an City for more than a year. Bai Wuqiu is used to the days of no return, and every day he doesn't take Xiao Rensan to wander around the major wine shops in Chang'an City, and after the two monsters drank too much, they began to drink crazy and find someone to scold the street. With the support of the new emperor Yan Zheng, the officials of Chang'an City did not dare to do anything to him. Within a few days, these two monsters turned out to be the tyrants of Chang'an City.
And Wu Mian almost stayed at home, often locked himself in his room, and rehearsed the spells he had obtained from Xu Fu's map by himself. Without the nagging around him, a short period of time has passed, and the realm of Wu Mian's magic has actually been slightly successful.
Guangzhi and Zuo Ci actually had a friendship, and Guangzhi had another purpose when he went out of the island this time. Thinking of going to the former site of the Fang Shi Sect to take a look again, after so many years, the Fang Shi Sect has never shown its head. The old site of the sect is already dilapidated, but Guangzhi still asked Zuo Ci to return to the old site of the sect to have a look. How to say that he, the first disciple of the Bait Island Dafang Master, also walked out from here.
After the two of them visited the former site of the Fangshi Sect, they often traveled together. Originally, both of them tried their best to invite Wu Mian and the two monsters, but as soon as they said that they wanted to leave here, they said that they would not agree to anything. And Wu Mian didn't have the intention of playing, only the two of them didn't come back for two or three months as soon as they appeared.
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed, and I see that this year is going to be spent in Chang'an City again. One morning, when Bai Wuqiu and Xiao Rensan, who had not woken up from a hangover, were still asleep in the room, the housekeeper left by Yan Zheng hurriedly came over and knocked on the door.
After seeing that no one responded after knocking for a long time, the housekeeper went to Wu Mian's room alone. After knocking on the door three or two times, the butler stood at the door, and said to the white-haired man inside with some trepidation: "There is a monk outside who claims to be your old man, and I have asked the name of this monk. He said you can see it at a glance......"
Since the disappearance of No Return for no reason, this housekeeper is a little nervous when he encounters such a thing again. However, Wu Mian glanced at him as if he was fine, and said, "Since they all said that they are old people, then invite him in." I also want to see if there are any other old people who will come to the door to find this uncomfortable......"
After Wu Mian's words, the housekeeper ran to the gate at a trot. A moment later, let in a middle-aged monk dressed in white. This person turned out to be Guangxiao, who was the original anti-Fang Shi, when the Lord of the Heavenly Tower designed to let the Fang Shi and the Demon King fight, this Guangzi person also appeared once. After so many years, Guangxiao disappeared with Fang Shi, and I didn't expect that this person would take the initiative to come to the door today.
After seeing Wu Mian, Guangxiao smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, and you are still like this." When I became a white-haired immortal, I also told Guangren that there would be no change for people like us, and would we get tired of meeting in the sect every day? It's better for a few of us to go our separate ways and get together once in many years. I didn't think that my words should be fulfilled, they see each other every day, but I have been together for many years......"
Wu Mian didn't expect that after so many years, the first person he met who had something to do with Fang Shi would be this person. However, after Guangxiao rebelled against Fangshi, the collusion with Wentianlou is still vivid. Wu Mian didn't have a good impression of this person, and after glancing at Guangxiao up and down, he said in his unique tone: "Well, you've seen me, then you can leave." Come back in more than 100 years, where do you remember the gate? Walk slowly, don't give ......"
When you meet and open your mouth to say such things, even a person like Guangxiao is inevitably a little embarrassed. After laughing dryly, he glanced behind Wu Mian, and directly looked for a fork in the conversation: "What about my senior brother who will not return?" Why don't you see him? After all these years, aren't you still holding a grudge against me? Mr. Wu Mian was tired of talking to him, and Guangxiao came to meet the senior brother who did not return......"
"Guangxiao, don't you go around this house twice, don't ask what is going on here, and then come in to find your senior brother, guess what, will I believe it?" Wu Mian rarely said such a lot of words to Guangxiao, and after a pause, the white-haired man returned to his normal state and continued: "Say, it's not for that old guy this time, right?" ”
It seems that nothing can be hidden from Mr. Wu Mian. Guangxiao laughed a little embarrassedly, and continued: "I heard that Mr. Wu Mian still has a few elixirs of immortality in his hand, and it just so happens that I have seen a few good roots and seedlings over the years. I have already taught them the technique, if I can use Mr. Wu Mian's elixir to become a system like you and me. Then I am not lonely on the road to eternal life. ”
After Wu Mian glanced at Guangxiao again, he continued: "The elixir? Can I borrow this too? What is borrowed and repaid, is it your life? Or is it this half of the country? ”
After saying this, Guangxiao's face was slightly unnatural. After taking a deep breath, the man with a wide number of characters laughed, and then said, "I always thought that you followed Senior Brother Gui to take advantage of his exquisite heart. It seems that it is not yet known who took advantage of whom. But since Mr. Wu Mian has already broken the words, then we don't have to go around. I want an elixir, what treasure do you need to ......"
When Guangxiao said this, a pill suddenly appeared out of thin air in Wu Mian's hand. The white-haired man put the pill in the empty teacup next to him, and then put the pill and the teacup in front of Guangxiao, and after looking at him, he said, "Exchange the old guy for ......."
