Hearing Fang Shuo's complaint, Xue Qingye laughed.

"Hahaha, Brother Fang, what do you mean by that? Fooled? Who's in it? Xue Qingye asked with a smile.

Sighing, Fang Shuo held his forehead and said: "I heard that this water and land road will be very interesting, so I want to come to Qingzhou to meet it, even if I feel bored after coming, it is better than staying in Lingquan to practice." I didn't think about it, but as soon as I came here, I had a big fight with the monks of Tianque Tower. Alas, Brother Xue, do you say that I am not idle. ”

"You lost?" Xue Qingqi said.

"Won. Speaking of which, I would like to thank Brother Xue below. If it weren't for Brother Xue showing me that ancient scripture and I learned a hand in swordsmanship, I would definitely lose today's competition. Fang Shuo thanked Xue Qingyi.

"Brother Fang, thank me for what I did, I just took the book and showed it to you. However, Brother Fang has only seen it once, and he can use it against the enemy, and his talent is so high that he is ashamed of himself. Xue Qingye sighed.

"Brother Xue has an overreputation, and he just borrowed the prestige of the spirit sword by chance, which is nothing at all." As soon as the words changed, Fang Shuo asked Xue Qingye again, "By the way, Brother Xue, why didn't you go to the Water and Land Dao Meeting?" Why, didn't you come to see it? ”

Stretching hard, Xue Qingye yawned and said: "I was very much looking forward to this water and land road meeting, but I was lucky to meet Brother Fang, and after a long chat, I gained a lot, and many doubts on weekdays have been solved, and it will not be interesting to go to the water and land road meeting again." ”

Fang Shuo persuaded: "Today's water and land Dao meeting is indeed not interesting, but I heard that tomorrow there will be a senior of the Quanzhen Dao who will come here to give a lecture. When the time comes, I'll go with Brother Xue to have a look. ”

"If Brother Fang finds it interesting, just listen to it. It's just that I'm ready to leave Donghaizhuang in the next place, and tomorrow, I ask for forgiveness for not being able to walk with Brother Fang. Xue Qingye said.

"What, Brother Xue is leaving at this time?" Fang Shuo was shocked when he heard this, and asked puzzled.

"Brother Fang doesn't have to keep it, it's always been like this. The so-called come with a good time, return with a happy heart, in the next trip, the wish has been fulfilled, why stay here for a long time? Xue Qingye replied with a chuckle.

He jumped off the back of the green ox, untied the rope tied to the pillar in the courtyard, patted the green ox on the head a few times, and then led the green ox back to walk.

Fang Shuo saw that he had made up his mind to go, so he didn't do much to stay, and got up to see him off.

Xue Qingye asked Fang Shuo as he walked, "Brother Fang, how long will you stay in Qingzhou?" ”

Fang Shuo shook his head and said softly: "I don't know, maybe as soon as the water and land road is over, I will leave Qingzhou." Of course, I may stay for another three or five years, maybe I can. ”

The two of them came to the gate of Donghaizhuang with a smile and a smile, and at this time, Ling Junxin was on duty.

Ling Junxin greeted the two, and Shi Li asked, "Two fellow Daoists, today's water and land Dao meeting has just begun, what's the matter, are you going to leave the village?" ”

Fang Shuo arched his hand and said: "Xue Daoyou has something to do temporarily, and he wants to leave the village, so he will come down to see him off." ”

Ling Junxin persuaded: "I don't know why Xue Daoyou wants to leave the village?" In this way, it would be a pity to miss this water and land fair. ”

Xue Qingqi said with a smile: "There is nothing urgent in the next place, this time I came to the East China Sea Alliance to find the answer." Now that I've found the answer I want, I don't have to linger. ”

Seeing this, Ling Junxin no longer insisted, and sent Xue Qingye to the outside of the village with Fang Shuo.

Xue Qingye rode on the green ox and said goodbye to Fang Shuo and Ling Junxin: "Two, send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end, let's not be so polite, and say goodbye." ”

Knocking on the green tripe with both feet, Xue Qingye said, "Old cow, let's go." Qingniu carried Xue Qingye and slowly walked down Lincang Mountain.

After exchanging salutes with Ling Junxin, Fang Shuo returned to the small courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Mei Yanhuan, and it seemed that Mei Yanhuan had been waiting for him for a while.

Fang Shuo asked strangely, "Brother Mei? At this time, you are not presiding over the water and land road meeting on the sea of clouds, why did you come to me? Are you here to steal from me? ”

Brother Fang laughed, Zhuang was busy at this time, how could I be lazy? I came here because I had something to tell Brother Fang. Mei Yanhuan smiled.

"Oh, what the hell is going on?" Fang Shuo wondered.

"Daoist Yuhua of Tianque Tower and a group of disciples have already left Donghai Village." Mei Yanhuan said.

"They're gone? What about this land and water fair? Fang Shuo frowned and asked.

"Naturally, I withdrew from this water and land fair." Mei Yanhuan replied.

Fang Shuo asked with a strange expression, "This can't be a sin that I created, right?" If this beam is settled, I am afraid that I will not be able to go to Yuzhou in my life. ”

Mei Yanhuan shook his head and said, "Brother Fang won the above board, Tianque Lou would not be so ungraceful." It's just that because the spies in the alliance were arrested and lost to Brother Fang in front of a group of Taoist friends, Tianque Lou should be a little embarrassed. ”

Fang Shuo asked again, "This won't have any effect, right?" ”

"This naturally doesn't matter, whether there is a Tianque Tower or not, the Water and Land Road will still continue as usual. There are so many sects, and it is not too little to lack one sect in Tianque Tower, and it is not too much to add him. Mei Yanhuan raised his chin slightly.

Mei Yanhuan didn't stay long, Fang Shuo was napping alone in the courtyard.

But for some reason, maybe he still remembers the matter of Tianque Tower in his heart, and he is always a little inexplicably bored. So, after Fang Shuo got up, he casually walked around Donghai Village.

Unexpectedly, in the cliff pavilion not far from the courtyard, I met Lu Daochang, who was drinking.

Lu Daochang sat comfortably in the pavilion, enjoying the beautiful scenery outside the pavilion, while eating a few small dishes on the stone table, he was uncomfortable with a drink.

"The kid has seen Daoist Lu." Fang Shuo said.

"Oh, it's Fang Shuo, come on, come and have a drink with me." Lu Daochang said enthusiastically.

"Senior Lu forgot? I don't drink alcohol under it. Fang Shuo stepped forward and said.

"It's okay, just sit here and eat some food, these are all carefully prepared by me. You see, this plate is stewed fried crispy fish, this plate is lamb with green onion sauce, and this plate is eight-treasure steamed duck slices, which is a tabby grouper fished from the East China Sea, and this is a copy of the three immortals. Lu Daochang introduced.

Fang Shuo sat next to Daoist Lu and chuckled, "That kid is welcome." ”

Using aura as chopsticks, Fang Shuo picked up a piece of lamb with green onion sauce that leaned most on him. Take a closer look, this mutton ash is translucent red, and the aroma is gluttonous against the backdrop of the thick green onion sauce.

Putting the mutton in his mouth, Fang Shuo took a bite, and the aroma of the meat accompanied by the taste of green onion sauce rushed straight to the top of the mud pill palace. The lamb is slightly chewy, but it is not stiff and chewy, and it is very delicious.

Fang Shuo praised and said: "Senior Lu, the taste of this lamb with scallion sauce is really wonderful. ”

"Hahaha, huh? Try these other dishes. Lu Laodao laughed.

Fang Shuo was not polite at all, and tasted every dish. Taking a deep breath, and then slowly exhaling it, Fang Shuo closed his eyes and savored the aroma of vegetables in his mouth, intoxicated, and didn't speak for a long time.

Opening his eyes, Fang Shuo sighed, "Senior Lu, these few dishes of yours almost ruined my cultivation for more than ten years. ”

Lu Laodao quipped: "So, are you willing to continue your penance, or do you want to put down your cultivation and continue to eat these dishes?" ”

Fang Shuo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "To be honest, Fang Shuo is willing to put down his cultivation and continue to eat. ”

"Hahaha, you kid is really honest, and he has a temper with the old man." Lu Laodao said with a smile.

Fang Shuo lowered his head and laughed at himself: "Let you laugh at you, senior." ”

"Well, where are you talking. Although Taoism emphasizes longevity, you and I are just ordinary people after all, so what's wrong with greedy appetite? Lu Laodao said.

"What the Taoist chief said is that the kid has been taught. It's just that now that this water and land road meeting has begun, why didn't Senior Lu go to the sea of clouds and stay in this pavilion instead? Fang Shuo asked.

Lu Laodao asked Fang Shuo rhetorically: "What do you think is interesting about this water and land road?" Even if you go there and sit there, where can you compare to my table full of delicacies? ”

"The seniors are open-minded and free-spirited, and the kid admires them." Fang Shuo said.

"It's almost okay, you kid don't pat me on the back," Lu Laodao scolded with a smile.

Fang Shuo chuckled and said, "As the saying goes, the hands of people are short, and the mouth of people is soft. Fang Shuo still wants to eat more long dishes, but he can't say something nice. ”

After speaking, Fang Shuo picked up a few more chopsticks and Lu Laodao's dishes.

Lu Laodao quipped: "Okay, you Fang Shuo, what's the matter, if you win the Tianque Tower, your tail will go to the sky?" Say I'm not staying in the sea of clouds, how did you come here? ”

Fang Shuo swallowed the food in his mouth and sighed: "Isn't it because the people in Tianque Tower are gone, the kid is a little worried, and he is a little irritable for some reason, so he came out for a walk." ”

"Oh, what, are you afraid that Tianque Tower will take revenge on you? Don't worry, although Yuhua's old man is short-sighted, his character is okay, and he is the same. Even if he wants to settle accounts, he will only find the Donghai Alliance, which has nothing to do with you as a junior, and will not involve you. Lu Laodao persuaded and said.

"I still have some clarity about the person who Daoist Yuhua is, so of course I won't worry. I'm afraid that some stunned people will have a tendon in their brains and entangle me. Tianque Tower tree is very windy, and it is inevitable that there will be small people who want to use me as a stepping stone to enter the gate of Tianque Tower. This kind of thing has always been indispensable. In the future, I'm afraid that I will continue to be in trouble. Fang Shuo said distressedly.

Lu Laodao took a sip of wine and asked, "Then what countermeasures do you have?" ”

"The kid doesn't know, maybe he can only stay in the East China Sea Alliance for a while, or wait for this limelight to pass." Fang Shuo sandwiched the dish again.

"Everything has a source, and everything to come arises from the present. Fang Shuo, otherwise, how about the old man calculate a hexagram for you and help you measure your fortune? Lu Laodao proposed.

Fang Shuo was pleasantly surprised: "Senior Lu is willing to help me calculate a hexagram, that's really good." ”

After straightening his robe, Lu Laodao took out three copper coins from his arms and threw them in the air.

When the three copper coins fell, Lu Laodao stretched out his right hand, grabbed it in his palm, and then spread the copper coins on his left palm.

Lu Laodao looked at it carefully for a while, and Fang Shuo held his breath, for fear of disturbing him.

"Tsk, it's strange, it's a little hard to see this day. Why is the proposition shown in the hexagram so different from what I measured earlier? Lu Laodao frowned and muttered.
