Chapter 46: The Plan Will Be Released (3)
One day later, Cheng Hou Lu Shizhi secretly summoned many of his subordinates to visit the place where the Marquis went, and after two days, there was only one news that the Marquis went to Cuihua Mountain. When Lu Shizhi heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he smiled emptily, "Hey! This guy ran far enough. After a long time of muttering in his mouth, he shouted loudly and shouted hundreds of guests under his door, "Follow me to Cuihua Mountain, and when I see Liuhou, I will immediately intercept him." "The pawn and his guests were happy to see that there was work to help, so they could be 'rich', but they were embarrassed for a long time, saying that they didn't know what the marquis looked like. Lu Shizhi touched the back of his head and pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and with a wave of his big hand, he ordered, "It doesn't matter what he looks like, he will be intercepted when he meets someone, Cuihua Mountain is high in the sky, who will go to ordinary people?" As long as you can meet someone, it is a stay. "The pawn and his guests are not holding back their laughter, and this method of elimination is really ridiculous but very practical. The family members and guests either followed Jianhou in the Qin period, or relied on their strength and resourcefulness during the Chu-Han War, or followed Jianhou in the past year. Jianhou did not have much wisdom but liked to learn from the people whom Meng Weijun befriended, appointed them according to their talents, and distributed money and goods according to their talents and contributions to himself, which won the support of the guests.
"Whoever sees the Marquis first will be rewarded." Lu Shizhi took out a gold ingot from his waist and held it high in the air to mobilize morale. Everyone was even more rewarded, and their waists straightened and they walked forward in the same step, and they all bowed their hands to Lu Shizhi, and the sound shook the palace, "Serve the Hou Ye, serve the Hou Ye-" Lu Shizhi proudly pressed a gold ingot in his hand back to his waist, and pointed his index finger directly outside the door of the house with a loud voice, "Let's go-".
Everyone wore mink windbreakers, or rode horses or donkeys to follow Lu Shi's horse south to Cuihua Mountain. An hour and a half has arrived at the foot of Cuihua Mountain, Lu Shi stood at the mouth of the valley and looked up at the peak of Cuihua Mountain, the cliffs were towering, all covered by thick ice and snow, a cold wind blew out of the valley, swept their faces, and Lu Shizhi and others shivered, and hurriedly pulled the mink windbreaker on their bodies. Everyone walked up the mountain against the wind, until they were halfway up and there was no one in the middle of the waist, and not a single beast footprint was seen, and the convective wind on both sides of the peak wall roared like a mad tiger and leopard. In addition to the cold, everyone walked all the way but also felt that this Cuihua Mountain was really fairyland, the oncoming mountain steps were sloped down, the snow on the mountain steps had not disappeared, if the pure white ribbon hung lightly on the mountainside, the rows of trees in the col stood like majestic warriors, and the col was more deep and whistling through the mountain wind like a leisurely deep cave, this is the wind tunnel; The more you go up, the more you feel that there are many natural pools, not very big but small and exquisite, some of them are not frozen by ice and snow, and they are still rippling in the harsh winter, clear as a mirror. Walking up the rugged staircase for two quarters of an hour, there is a huge waterfall that seems to fall from the nine heavens, pouring several feet.
Everyone was intoxicated by the beauty of Cuihua Mountain, but a few feet away, they heard a loud round song blown by the wind, "...... With a sheep's belly and a handkerchief, I went out to visit Songqiao; I can see Song Qiao's real person, and I am confused and have a long life; Chopping wood and going home in a hurry, smiling at his good wife and filial piety; Fall in love with the beautiful Cuihua Mountain, see Laojun outside the clouds......" The song tune is cheerful and distinct, as if after entering the mountain, meet Chi Songzi and Wang Qiao, two real people, after the two real people guide the singer, the singer goes home to tell his wife and children, the singer loves the beautiful Cuihua Mountain to die, and the soul will see Taishang Laojun after returning to heaven.
Lu Shizhi squinted and thought about who the singer was, he didn't see anyone all the way, but at this time he heard a majestic voice coming from the foot of the mountain, and Lu Shizhi's eyes lit up immediately: Could it be that the singer is the Marquis? Without waiting for Lu Shizhi's instructions, the two guests had already gotten on the horse and said to Lu Shizhi, "Hou Ye, wait a minute, wait for the two of us to go and check, and arrest that person to see Hou Ye." As soon as the words fell, Lu Shizhi nodded, and the two of them had already 'driven-' and rushed away. Within half an hour, the two of them came to Lu Shizhi with a young man, the man didn't know the situation, and stood trembling in front of a group of nobles, Lu Shizhi looked at the man and was not a marquis, so he asked in a thick voice, "Who are you?" Why don't you stay at home and go up the mountain? The young man didn't know whether he was cold or frightened, and he couldn't say a word, "The servant, the servant, the servant, every three days, went up the mountain to cut wood, and the servant was carrying the firewood down the mountain. Lu Shizhi narrowed his eyes and asked disdainfully, "Then you are familiar with this mountain, has there been a person with immortal wind bones who has entered the mountain recently?" The man frowned and shook his head after a thought, "I haven't seen it." Lu Shizhi glanced at the guests and asked, "Do you know where this mountain is suitable for living?" The man lowered his head and thought for a long time, and then his eyes lit up, and his eyes were as bright as transparent light, "When the Jun family goes up to two quarters, you will see a heavenly pool, and the Laojun Temple is built next to the heavenly pool, where people can live." ”
Lu Shizhi thought about it carefully, then took out a gold ingot from his waist and gave it to the man, and asked him to lead the way to Tianchi. The man did not hesitate to get down when he saw the gold, and quickly arrived at the top of the Tianchi with Lu Shizhi, and some of the guests gave a gold ingot to the man, and the man held a gold ingot, and went down the mountain with joy after crying and thanking Lu Shizhi and others.
Lu Shizhi and his guests saw the huge and beautiful Tianchi lying between the peaks, and there were many branch ponds next to the Tianchi, and the Zhuchi was one of them. Lu Shizhi and others walked around the pond, and it was really not far away to see a solemn and grand temple blocking the front, the temple door three words 'Laojun Temple', Laojun Temple thirty meters away is the waterfall that pours down in nine days. Lu Shizhi's face was happy, "Stay here." Then lead people to rush into the Laojun Temple, into the temple will feel a burst of warmth hit, mild and soft, look at the atrium of the temple, a copper tripod incense burner in the incense wafting, the hall on both sides of the two bronze cranes stand upright, the front of the temple is the statue of Taishang Laojun, like the bottom of the case is full of tribute, the case on both sides of the tribute is full of stacks of bamboo slips, and then look at the top of the hall is full of Taoist cloth slogans: to the void pole to keep quiet, full of gold and jade, Mo can keep, the Tao often does nothing and does nothing, life is not there, for the sake of not worrying, success and Fuju and so on.
Everyone is not a Taoist child, and when they see such a solemn appearance of Taoism, everyone is in awe. Lu Shizhi had time to respect in the future, but only thought that he had not seen Liuhou, and when he was anxious and confused, a little boy with a hammerhead came out of a small door in the east of the hall, and saw hundreds of people wearing mink trench coats standing majestically in the hall, somewhat inexplicable, and walked over, and asked jerkily with a simple arch of his hand, "There are few guests in the mountains, who are you?" What is the matter with entering the mountain? Lu Shizhi jumped in front of the child, and bowed his hand politely like a child, and said funny, "We are all from Chang'an, don't say too much, just to stay here." "Whoever stays behind does not know this person." The child is unequivocal. Lu Shizhi looked at the child for a long time, grabbed the bamboo slip next to him, opened it and pointed to a line of words and asked, "Read this sentence." The boy frowned and grabbed his scalp, lowered his head and gritted his teeth. Lu Shizhi smiled, "You can't read, what do you want bamboo slips to do?" Invite the man to show me, and don't waste my time. The boy was speechless, so he grabbed his scalp and entered the small door, and soon came out and waved his hand at Lu Shizhi and invited more than a dozen people to enter.
When Lu Shizhi entered the inner hall, he saw a thin man lying with his back to him, reciting the Tao Te Ching softly under the green lamp. Looking at the person in front of him again, the familiar back, the familiar voice, the familiar "Tao Te Ching", Lu Shizhi raised his eyebrows and jumped in front of this person in one step and waved his hand, "Why is the Marquis so hidden, it is so hard to find you." ”
This person immediately stopped reciting and glanced at Lu Shizhi, and then asked him to sit down facing him, this is Liuhou Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang skillfully soaked the soju and poured two jue wine, and gave it to Lu Shiyi, "In the middle of winter, the marquis eats wine." Lu Shizhi was not polite, took the wine and drank it gurglingly, and temporarily borrowed wine to warm his body. Lu Shizhi tasted the fragrance before he spoke, Zhang Liang took a sip of soju, and if he didn't know the prophet like a prophet and blocked Lu Shizhi's words, his expression was calm and indifferent, "I know why the Hou Ye came, and the Hou Ye has enough spare strength, so the Hou Ye will go back after eating and drinking." Lu Shizhi was stunned, blinked and said in surprise, "I didn't say, how do you know?" Zhang Liang stopped drinking but smiled slightly, "I know it, but I'm afraid that Master Hou will come here in vain." Lu Shizhi immediately straightened his waist, stared at him sternly and didn't sloppy and got straight to the point, "Since the Hou knows about the province, I said, today I came to ask the Hou Ye for an idea." I have heard that Liuhou is more resourceful, and the prince must be in charge of the prince, good and bad, and ask Liuhou to offer a plan. Before the words fell, Lu Shizhi had already gotten up and bowed deeply to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang continued to soak in soju, his demeanor was calm and unhurried, "I have persuaded the emperor, but he doesn't listen, and I don't have much to do." Master Hou is not difficult to be strong. Lu Shizhi was already angry in his chest, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Liang, and seeing that he was always indifferent, he knew that Zhang Liang was unwilling to offer his plan easily, Lu Shizhi said coldly, "Is it true that Liuhou does not offer plans?" "There's nothing you can do." Zhang Liang drank the soju lightly as he spoke.
