Outside the Astronomical Temple, since Zhang Xianjun took this big gentleman Pang Beidou who seemed to be a sin in the Temple of Literature to leave the Temple of Literature and go to Sanqing Mountain to watch the ceremony, he happened to be seen by the Yasheng Master who had just finished teaching Tao Xian and Yuanyi, and after hanging the ring ruler and the top of the heads of the two, he turned around and kept looking for the Shi Sheng Master who was still looking at the chessboard.

The old man was not surprised by his arrival, and beckoned him in a very hospitable manner, "Come and help me see how I play this game, this game is with Xianjun, and you can eat more of your sons in the future." ”

How can the old man in white who is not here to play chess be in the mood to talk about chess, the flowers in the flower garden next to Baiyu Square are not fragrant, and I came to play chess with you bad old man.

The white-clothed Yasheng Master didn't ask the owner of the courtyard what he meant, and sat directly opposite the old man. Seeing that he was coming, he was still looking at the chess game in front of him, which was really disturbing.

He looked at the white-bearded old man who was on the chessboard and said, "Pang Beidou let you go?"

The old man said: "What did Xi and you say, what did you say that I let go, why, it seems that the land of our Confucian Temple has become a prison under the mountain, and Pang Beidou has become a heinous sinner." ”

Yasheng said: " It's not a big crime, but it's always wrong, at first he went to Chang'an to directly collide with the human emperor Li Sheng, and he handed over the fold, although he went to cast a spell before the appearance, but the record stain in the small space, he Pang Beidou actually didn't have one, don't think I don't know that it was your little old man who moved his hands and feet, I won't say it, and now he violated the rules set by the two parties in Nanzhou to hand the sword at will, at first he was still a little jealous, just ambushed some low-level demons, and then didn't think that he was actually fishing, and the fishing was not an ordinary small fish, and he shot with the big demon Leng Nirvana, Cangyu fought against him, and he killed the latter fiercely, attracting the ancestor of the demon clan to make a move, and the heavenly machine was able to retreat, and now people say that we break the rules, and we don't even have room to fight back. ”

Yasheng said that the spit was flying, and there was no trace of a saint in front of the old man, and the two of them sat together like an old man squatting around the alley at the foot of the mountain.

The old man finally stopped fiddling with the chess pieces, clasped his hands in his sleeves, hugged them on his abdomen, and said with a smile: " Xi and you have a sentence that is wrong, the human race and the demon race are opposite, the contract thousands of years ago is just a delaying strategy, the big war outside the Great Wall is not fought every day, and there is no less fight because of that contract, the contract is to put it bluntly is to restrict the monks and martial artists above the ten realms to shoot, look down, the war between the human race and the demon race has not stopped for ten thousand years, Beidou The child has resentment in his heart, the resentment is not removed, the realm is difficult to mention, it is better to let him hand the sword Nanzhou, Shu Shuxin, this is also good for his practice, in the future his realm is getting higher and higher, it should be a great good thing for the human race, it is rare for young people to be so jealous and hateful, good things, good things！”

Between his words, he smiled brightly, unlike Yasheng, who spat at the stars in his mouth like a floodgate and flew away wantonly, and the saint's posture was strictly guarded.

Yasheng opened his mouth and said: "You are used to protecting the calf Hu, Pang Beidou is the apprentice of Ren Tianji, you have to worry about it every day, why, did you regret sending him to Tianji Mountain?"

Master Shi Sheng looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "I don't regret it for the time being, that kid is not respectful every time he sees me, he now calls Tianji a teacher, a thousand years ago when he was a teenager, he called me grandpa, who do you say you are kissing? You are a little old man with a baby." ”

Yasheng hey!, this bad old man said for no reason that he was doing something with a baby, but after thinking about it carefully, although his apprentice is more than 100 years old, he is a half-demon, and now 100 years old is equivalent to the same as a human child five or six years old, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a doll.

He knew that he couldn't talk about this old man who was buried in the pile of books every day, so he stretched out his finger and pointed at the old man who was looking at him with a smile on his face, "You just get used to him, sooner or later you will have to break into a big disaster." After saying that, he flicked his sleeve robe and left, and just a few steps away, he turned his head slightly and glanced at the big tree above the old man's head, and then muttered, "Blind my ancient sapling." He snorted, didn't stay any longer, didn't want to take this step, and directly dissipated into a cloud of smoke.

The old man smiled as he watched Yasheng leave, then took a long breath and continued to stare down at the chessboard.

——————

Li Sheng was taller all the way, and it didn't take long to come to the top of the mountain, the Temple of Literature is located on the side of the cliff path is equipped with a tall portal as the façade of the Temple of Literature, and this gate is very different from the gate under the mountain, because it has no door, it is a frame standing there, but it is higher and bigger than those under the mountain.

The Temple of Literature didn't care about guarding the portal in the first place, after all, no one was bold enough to make a mess of the Extraterrestrial Astronomical Temple, which was full of saints. However, in the early years, after being knocked down by the old man under the eye of the north wind with a punch, Tao Xian took all of them over.

Anyway, he was very idle in the Temple of Literature after that, under the slogan of a sense of ceremony, he took over the guarding work outside the Chamber of Literature and the cliff portal alone, the two places are not far apart, and they are separated by a huge white jade square and those bamboo forests and trees, often running back and forth several times a day, and they are idle anyway. But in the past few days, I haven't seen the lazy figure in the white jade square, and the people are working hard in the bamboo forest in the back mountain, and the books are almost as high as a hill.

After that, it was rare for Yasheng to take the kid from Yuanyi down the mountain to watch the ceremony, and the ring ruler happened to be not there, so he could use the magic to turn over so many times, and only then did he pass the test in confusion and escape from the "dangerous place" of the bamboo forest.

Li Sheng came to the door and looked at the wooden plaque engraved with the word "Confucian Temple" hanging on the beam as high as a hill, which is quite ordinary, but it is said that this plaque has been hanging here since 10,000 years and 10,000 years ago, which is powerful, can be imagined.

When Li Sheng appeared in front of the portal, he happened to be bumped into by Tao Xian, who rushed to the portal from the side of the chamber to "change shifts", good guy, this kid's eyes suddenly glowed with gold, if you want to make money, no matter how much money you make, can you have the money in front of you? That is the richest person in the world, it is a bit far-fetched to say that it is one of them.

Tao Xian trotted all the way, with a smile on his face, where is the fairy atmosphere on the mountain, came to Li Sheng, who was standing with his hands in his hands, and said with a smile: "Rare guest, the emperor is actually here, I don't know what you have to do, this time you want to invest money in the Temple of Literature to build a study building or to build a canal, everything is easy to say, everything is easy to say." ”

Li Sheng smiled: "It turned out to be Grandmaster Tao Xian, this ...... I have something to do this time, and if I want to invest money, I may have to wait until next time, but if I have something to do this time, I will definitely ...... next time By all means next time!"

If it weren't for his own face, Li Sheng would have wanted to say that he had done a crime, how could he meet this goods as soon as he came, this guy and Tang Liu of the Wumiao Temple are basically all the way, they are all guys who run flying boats with their mouths, but the former is not as high as the latter, but the color criticism of that hanger Langdang is not inferior to the latter. Someone once said that if this Tao Xian Grandmaster of the Confucian Temple is willing to use his verbal efforts and ruffianness beyond Tang Liu's cultivation to practice, let alone the eleventh or twelfth realm, I don't think the way is empty talk......

Tao Xian's face stiffened with a smile, and he immediately smiled again: "That's it, it's okay, all the people who come are friends, since Emperor Tang said that it will be done next time, I think it will definitely be done next time, come, Emperor Tang please." ”

Tao Xian welcomed Li Sheng in with a strange voice, and said something rebellious, if you look at it this way, Tao Xian made welcoming Li Sheng alive and made the old bustard in the land of wind and moon under the mountain to welcome the children of the gentleman.

If it is seen by Yasheng, it is estimated that twenty times of the Tao Te Ching is indispensable.

After Li Sheng entered, before he was about to come to Baiyu Square, he used all kinds of rhetoric, in fact, a bag of silver money to send away Tao Xian, who was talking nonsense beside him. The latter half-pushed and half-pushed the money and stuffed it into his sleeve in a hurry, and pretended to be angry on his face, and said, "Emperor Tang don't want to be like this next time, when I am idle." Then Li Sheng had to laugh and couldn't speak, the latter actually acted, pretended to be annoyed and threw his sleeves away hey.

Getting rid of such an annoying spirit, Li Sheng raised his feet and walked a few steps, stepped into the white jade square, walked all the way, patted his head, how could he forget to ask that Tao Xian Xiansheng is not in the Temple of Literature at the moment, alas! What a bad thing, I was disturbed by that guy for a while, and I forgot to ask. But let's go to the chamber first, it should be here under normal circumstances.

In the Temple of Literature, it is not allowed to be excessively swaggering, even if the emperor of the world can't make an exception, Li Sheng can only secretly lift his breath on his feet, and he can't resist the wind and don't say that he can't go first, and then quickly walked through the white jade stairs and came to the door of the chamber, seeing that the door was hidden, he was not as relaxed as in his own palace, and he was still a little restrained standing here at the moment, after all, he hadn't been here for hundreds of years.

Then Li Sheng pushed the door in, and behold, the white-bearded old man Shi Sheng sat on a chair and waved a jade pen flying on the books. Just wanted to turn around and close the door, the old man didn't raise his head, the pen and ink in his hand didn't stop, and said casually: "The door doesn't need to be closed, open it wider, let in some light, and be more comfortable." ”

Li Sheng looked at the high roof of the chamber and saw that there was a big sun shining through the high-ceiling windows, illuminating the chamber brightly and transparently, but since people said it, he would do it himself.

After Li Sheng finished everything, he came to the white jade long table, Shi Sheng's movements remained the same, and said, "Feel free to sit down, don't be so restrained." ”

Li Sheng looked at it, and none of these chairs dared to sit on him, so he said, "No need, I ...... I just have something to do here, and when I'm done, I'll leave, and I won't sit down. ”

In front of this, even if Li Sheng is the emperor of the world and even the world, he does not dare to be too arrogant, and even a little modest, although he has lived a thousand years now, in front of this, it is not as much as a fraction of the years that others have lived.

Shi Sheng put down the jade pen, put it on the shelf, glanced up, smiled, and asked: "Since this is not reluctant, let's say, Emperor Tang, you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, you haven't been here for hundreds of years." ”

What the old man said was not empty words, to say that the last time the Tang Emperor came was also after the Millennium War, about the world's reward, at that time, Li Sheng, who had just succeeded to the throne, came to the Temple of Literature to participate in a discussion, and he didn't come again for a long time.

Li Sheng changed his standing posture, put his hands in front of him to make a cage sleeve shape, and said with a smile: "It's actually nothing big for me to come, but there are some things I want to say to the manifestation, and nothing else." ”

The old man nodded, and he didn't know that a cup of tea appeared out of thin air on the table, and the old man didn't drink alcohol, but he drank good tea. He took a sip gently, not hot, and was drinking, "Looking for the manifestation, I don't know if he went to Sanqing Mountain to watch the ceremony and came back, the distance between the two places is not close, I don't know if he came back, he often sees the head and the tail, rarely in the Temple of Literature, and has come back more recently, otherwise you go to his cave to see." ”

Li Sheng responded, and the old man smiled back, and then continued to pick up the jade pen and sway the ink. The former took a slight step back, bowed slightly, and then turned to leave. As soon as he walked to the door and was about to walk out, the old man's voice came from behind, "If Emperor Tang encounters something that he can't grasp, he doesn't need to be afraid of showing timidity, and asking for help from the Temple of Literature in time will at least give you a lot of confidence." There was no sound, the room was silent, only the tip of the pen rustled on the paper.

Tang Huang paused, smiled, and then walked to the door, turned around and asked with a smile, "Does Shi Sheng need me to help you close the door?"

Shi Sheng didn't raise his head too much, "Just go directly." ”

Li Sheng smiled and bowed his head, and retreated to the door like this, stepping over the threshold before turning around and leaving.
