Chapter 4: Edgeworth Rides the Wind
Yuhang Town, it has rained for ten years.
The rivers and canals in the south of the Yangtze River are staggered, the town is close to the sea, and the people's livelihood is mostly based on planting paddy fields and going into the water to fish. And this rain is also interesting, changing day by day, sometimes black clouds turn ink, white rain jumps beads; Sometimes the sky is clear and rainy, ten miles are different. Even when it comes to the agricultural time when the grain needs to be dried for more than ten days, the rain only falls on the side of the mountains and seas, but it does not fall on the grain drying field in the town......
There is a poem "Good rain knows the season, when spring happens".
The rain in Yuhang Town is so informative and interesting, as if it has been through human nature, it can naturally be called "good rain". Over time, the small town of Yuhang has also been known as the "hometown of good rain". From time to time, there are literati and prostitutes boating down the river, singing all the way, and three or five friends linger on the lake near Yuhang for several days, chanting poems and painting very elegantly.
However, those dignitaries and dignitaries don't look down on rural places such as Yuhang Town, they are all stars in the sky, and even stepping ashore will feel contaminated with pickled air. At most, the local people are required to send good fish, shrimp, and seasonal vegetables to the boat, and there are people such as housekeepers to come forward to buy and sell. came and went, but it was one more germination for the town. As long as a few painting boats come here from Suzhou every year, the livelihood of the town's people for a year will be guaranteed.
Such a small town is not known in the south of the Yangtze River.
The people in the town were born in Si, grew up in Si, and died in Si, and the neighbors are all familiar with each other, and every household in the town can count the relatives that can't be beaten. Yuhang Town has always been closed, and in the past few decades, it has only added two outdoor visitors.
One family was twelve years ago, and the daughter-in-law of the Li family came here with her infant nephew. Unfortunately, her relatives moved away years ago. In desperation, the daughter-in-law of the Li family opened a simple inn in the town to make a living, and raised her nephew alone. The girl of the Li family has a bold and pungent personality. After a few years of daughter-in-law becoming an aunt, she was born with a matchmaker's mouth and was quite popular in the town. It's a pity that her nephew grew up to be a bit stubborn and stupid, which makes people sigh.
The other family came to the town ten years ago, and this combination is quite strange, it was actually a Huoju Taoist priest surnamed Lu who brought a paralyzed nephew! It is said that both of these uncles and nephews were born with a good skin that is quite enviable, so they live next door to the Li Family Inn.
The Taoist priest surnamed Lu is dignified (in fact, he is fat. But in ancient times, people often did not have enough to eat, so they thought fat was beautiful), which was quite respected by the townspeople. It's just because there are only 100 households in the town. In addition to professionals such as carpenters, blacksmiths, and doctors, in the past, weddings and funerals could only count on one goddess. The goddess has lived in the town since she was a child, and everyone knows the roots, so naturally she doesn't think that she really has any magic power to attract the gods and bless the family.
Now there is a professional such as Lu Daoshi. Naturally, all of them switched to this side! Lu Daochang is a humble person. Smile before speaking, and don't care about money, which makes people more respectful. Anyway, the red and white ceremonies in a town, plus the exchange of new peaches for old charms every year, the income is not much enough to simply maintain the livelihood of the uncle and nephew. And according to legend in the village, this Lu Daochang has some real skills, and he once caught the evil ghosts of the Zhang family and beat Yunyun.
As for the goddess, she changed to a professional matchmaker in a fit of anger. specializes in stealing business with the Li family's aunt. Her first order was to tell Aunt Li that Daochang Lu was going to do it all after ten years of hard work......
There is also a nephew surnamed Lu of the head of the Lu Dao. With a strong physique and a delicate appearance, it often attracts the big girls and little daughters-in-law in the town to pass by and peek. It's a pity that Lu Xiaozi is a blessed person, it is said that he was hit by a speeding BMW in the capital a few years ago, and since then he has been paralyzed in bed, and people have become stupid. Every day, I sat on a strange wooden chair and watched the rain under the eaves, every day for ten years.
He tilted his neck to watch the rain in a daze, but the girls in the town also followed the madness, and according to legend, he couldn't get enough of his stupid appearance, and the posture of not talking to see the rain was particularly affectionate. Some people even wrote crazy words, "You sit under the eaves and watch the wind and rain, the people in the rain are watching you upstairs, the bright moon decorates your window, and you decorate my dreams." ”
Then the person who wrote this poem was beaten by his own father, and he found him a daughter-in-law the next year! (Something seems wrong...... )
That's ten years in the blink of an eye.
*****
This uncle and nephew surnamed Lu are naturally Lu Yan and Lu Yuan.
Although they said when they met, they were full of sparks and hatred of the same enemy, and it seemed that they were about to return to three hundred years ago with their swords, completely kill the thief who deceived the world and steal their reputation, and save the inheritance of heaven and earth. In fact, both Lu Daxian and Lu Yuan understood that one of them was a high paraplegic and had internal breath disorders, and the other had been hungry for hundreds of years, and their strength was not one in a hundred. They really go back now, and even that person's disciples and grandchildren can't beat them, so they must first restore their strength.
What's more, if there is really a big obstacle in returning to the real world three hundred years ago, that is, Lu Dongbin was still alive and well at that time! Not to mention whether Lao Lu here can convince Lao Lu over there (Lao Lu commented that he is humble on the surface and stubborn in his heart), what will happen to Lu Dongbin in different time and space? This alone is something that no one could have predicted! This is not the meeting of two identical people in a parallel world - for example, their current world also has the legend of Lu Dongbin.
If the two Lu Dongbin meet, nothing should happen. But when people from different time and space in the same world meet, it may cause a time collapse, and they dare not take this risk.
Therefore, the best way is to find a world with strong vitality to restore its strength first.
But you can't go to the Dawn Fortress because there's a war going on there. After more than a year of recuperation, the Dawn finally set off on the Mona. Fortress of Dawn returns to the Overworld with a fleet of warships on a three-month cycle. The small fleet used the fortress as a base and launched frequent raids on the Mona in various systems to further understand the strength of the Mona. This stage is still in the fire reconnaissance stage, and it is still far from the real war, and there is no need for Lu Yuan to preside over it for the time being.
However, Lu Yuan still has another safe world to go to, that is, the coordinates of the Xianxia World that the Xing family's sister left him when he sent Xing Yan out of the Mass Effect World. So he followed the guidance of the key and quietly took Lu Dongbin to a smuggling. Without alarming any immortals, the two of them quietly came to Yuhang Town and lived in seclusion.
"How?" When Lu Yan pushed open the courtyard door in his robe, Lu Yuan withdrew his gaze from the rain and asked casually. If those big girls and little daughters-in-law knew that he was not stupid, they would definitely be careful of the clattering and clicking of broken livers.
"The Ding family's cattle have been found, but they are just trapped by a few lantern monsters, and they can be extinguished at will." Lu Yan threw it casually, and the peachwood sword he was holding in his hand hung steadily on the wall. "Just ten miles out of the town, there are grass and tree spirits, and the monsters in this world are really rampant! I don't know what those big factions are doing......"
Listening to the language, it seemed to be a bit resentful, but looking at Lu Xianren's complacent look, he knew that he was actually enjoying it.
Now that he has been cultivating for ten years, Lu Yan has long since recovered his original thin appearance (the townspeople regretfully call it Xianfeng Dao Bone, which means thin), with three long beards under his chin, as if there was a flash of thunder and lightning between his eyes opening and closing, and his whole body was full of vitality and divine feet - he looked like a person who had attained the Tao. Obviously, the Lu Immortal people have been reborn, and they are still decadent and obese when they were in the original world.
"Aunt Li brought you half a pot of osmanthus wine, saying that it was left over from yesterday at the inn." Lu Yuan followed Lu Yan and pushed the wheelchair back to the house, and said a little jokingly. "I think you two are quite suitable, and you also know that Aunt Li is not an ordinary person, do you want to let Mrs. Wang say it? It's not easy for the matchmaker, and I've been running for ten years for your business. ”
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm in vain with her, what can I do. Lu Yan's face was flat, and suddenly the anger of the king was full of anger, and Lu Yuan raised his hand as if he was shocked.
But seeing that Lu Xianren brought the pot of wine mixed with water to the inner kitchen, it was obviously not the slightest intention in his heart. Lu Yuan was able to take out a few good wines accumulated in the world casually, so Lu Yan stubbornly said that he liked the smell of osmanthus wine mixed with water. When the two of them first came to this world, neither of them wanted to cook, and in the first two years, they almost all ate in Aunt Li's inn. According to Lu Yuan, the two of them were eyebrow-raising at that time!
At that time, Aunt Li was not a big girl, she was still a twenty-seven or eight-year-old girl, and she looked very good.
Although he is indeed older in his thirties now, in the hands of an immortal like Lu Yan, is age a problem? If you are full of vitality today, it is just a matter of knowing how to rejuvenate Aunt Li.
However, in the past ten years, Lu Dongbin has taught Lu Yuan all his skills, and although the two do not have the name of master and apprentice, they have the reality of master and apprentice. Although Immortal Lu said that it was a reward for Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan also really respected the immortals, so naturally he would not continue to flirt.
"How are you feeling today?" Lu Yan asked after sitting down. He is a master of cultivating immortals, and he has learned from the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. After conditioning by his hands, and creating a special exercise for Lu Yuan in the past few years, Lu Yuan has gradually collected and sorted out the scattered energy of his body and transformed it into lively spiritual power. It's just that Lu Yuan's heart is too big, and his true yuan, magic power, and heavenly power are okay, and they can all be transformed into spiritual power with similar or slightly higher nature.
But for the power of the world that has taken root in his body, even Lu Dongbin has nothing to do! That power originated from Lu Yuan's perception of the life and death of the world, and it was essentially closer to the power system of the main god, not much higher than the spiritual power. As for how to control this power, the main god is born to know, and there is no precedent for anything else, so how to control it can only be controlled by Lu Yuan himself.
"I'm able to go on my own today." Lu Yuan exerted his strength and stood up from the wheelchair with both feet on the ground.
"Oh? Not bad! Lu Daxian's eyes flashed, he touched his beard and said eagerly, "How about going to the mountain temple tonight to try the sword?" I'm going to win you once! ”
That's right, this is the main reason why the two of them are also teachers and friends - Lu Dongbin likes swordsmanship, and there is a story of killing Jiaolong in the legend, and he is obviously a competitive person - but although he can throw Lu Yuan eighteen streets in terms of Taoist knowledge, in terms of strength, the two of them are only between the two of them.
can't suppress Lu Yuan, how embarrassed to be his master!
