In the past two and three months, the friendship between Senior Brother Liu and Li Yurong has grown, and Xue Zhenjun has to be a few times as a wild goose. With a tender face and beautiful speech, it is very invincible. This small Jade Void Palace is the place where Kun Dao cultivation can also go.

It's just that somehow, today's acquaintance is extremely unfamiliar, and he thinks that he has recently changed, so it's no wonder that Senior Brother Liu wants to pull him along.

The Zhike Taoist yawned, looked down at Xue Zhenjun, and said slowly: "There is something in the Yuxu Palace today, and I don't accept foreign guests." And there is a difference between men and women, what are you doing with Li Yurong for no reason? ”

Xue Zhenjun blinked and said, "Xiaodao Xue Zhenjun." ”

The man was quite rude: "Go, go, don't care how much you are up, retreat quickly." ”

This kind of pickled villain, if you care about it, you will only lose your identity. Xue Zhenjun smiled slightly, and with a shake of his sleeve, a gold leaf fell to the ground.

"Oh, why is Senior Brother so careless? The wealth is not exposed, senior brother quickly put it away. ”

When the Dao man saw the golden leaf, his eyes were already straight, and he was stunned to see that Xue Zhenjun was full of fireworks, and he sincerely put it in his hands.

The man was so happy that he almost showed his back molars: "Oh, but it's poor." I saved a year's worth of silver last year, thinking that it was inconvenient to carry, so I changed it to gold leaves. I don't want to be left behind today, it's really ...... Thank you for this junior brother. ”

Xue Zhenjun smiled and said, "Senior brother, Xiaodao has to talk about you." My father, Zeng Yun, who was an envoy in Jiangxi, is now ruled by the Son of Heaven, in a peaceful and prosperous era, the people are rich, and which family of five does not have a few taels of silver leftover?

As a result, the silver is more and more hidden in the people, and it is cheap to pay silver and copper. This gold is not usually used, and you have to exchange it for silver to buy some things, so how can it be cheaper than silver? I'm afraid that the silver will become more and more valuable in the future, and the senior brother will put the cart before the horse, so it is better to exchange it for silver as soon as possible. ”

The Taoist only listened to the follow-up words, and his person had already been suppressed by the previous sentence 'My father who was an envoy in Jiangxi' - this is a nobleman!

The man suddenly frowned, bent down and bowed his head, and said, "What the senior brother taught is that Xiaodao will change the silver taels in the future. This one...... Senior brother, it's not that the gossip is unreasonable, it's really the head of the house who has spoken, and the palace is closed today. However, I fell in love with my junior brother, and my junior brother is waiting here, and I will find a reason to pass on a word. ”

"Then thank you, senior brother."

"I can't thank you." The Taoist turned his head and entered the Taoist temple.

Xue Zhenjun stood with his hands in his hands, and when he turned his head, he saw Senior Brother Liu probing his brain in the bamboo forest, so he smiled and raised his right hand, clasped his thumb and index finger into a fist, and erected the other three fingers.

Senior Brother Liu didn't understand what he meant, but when he saw him smiling brightly, he immediately let out a sigh of relief and bowed his hand from afar.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps approaching, and as soon as the corner door opened, the Zhike Taoist came out, leaned over and lowered his voice: "Senior Sister Li said, let you wait in the old place, and you will be there in half an hour." ”

"Thank you, senior brother, that trail will go first."

"Hey, junior brother go slowly."

Xue Zhenjun turned around, but after a while, he met with Senior Brother Liu, and when he told him what he had just gained, Senior Brother Liu was suddenly overjoyed and said, "Without further ado, Senior Brother ......."

"Stay! The senior brother and Senior Sister Li fell in love, and the junior brother was not good at being used as a light bulb, so he said goodbye. ”

"What light bulbs? Senior brother and sister, you are weak, you are going to the mountain road for more than 20 miles, and you are afraid that you will not be able to return to Zixiao Palace when it is dark. ”

Xue Zhenjun stopped in a daze, and said gloomily: "I don't know when I will be able to learn a few skills from Senior Brother Liu, so I won't fight for victory, and I won't have to be carried by someone when I walk." ”

Senior Brother Liu was relieved: "Senior brother is born with fairy bones, sooner or later, he will be stronger than me." ”

Xue Zhenjun just shook his head: "Master said, Senior Brother said, Master also said, but I really don't know how useful this immortal bone is." ”

Senior Brother Liu dragged Xue Zhenqi into the bamboo forest and said, "Senior Brother doesn't know, but now the spiritual machine is mixed, if my Dao Sect monk swallows the spiritual machine like the Qin and Han Qi refiners, he will fall into the Demon Dao." Since the Tang and Song dynasties, the Neidan technique has gradually become mainstream. It first trains itself, and then absorbs the spiritual opportunity.

The root bone said that at first, the cultivation was not obvious, and the foundation building and refining the grain and refining the essence could not refine the body, and when the refining and refining of the Qi were reached, the cultivation would be incorporated into the spiritual machine of heaven and earth. Those with good roots and bones can receive eight points of spiritual power at one time, and those with poor roots and bones can not receive one point of spiritual power for ten times.

The junior brother was born with a fairy bone, and he didn't know how many of his colleagues he envied, so the junior brother still didn't want to be cheap and good. ”

Xue Zhenjun suddenly said, "I see, it's just that my dantian has a leak......

"When you were Uncle Yuan, you went down the mountain just to find the widow's bedside ashes? I'm afraid that Uncle Shi has already found a prescription, and I can't say that within a year or two, my brother will be able to repair the dantian. ”

Is that so? Xue Zhenjun only hoped that it would be true as Senior Brother Liu said.

The two of them walked while talking, and after a while, they arrived at a stone cliff, the stone flat was only a zhang, and there were nameless wildflowers breaking out of the cracks in the stones, and the flowers were purple and red, and there was a light and elegant fragrance of flowers between the breaths.

Xue Zhenjun couldn't help teasing: "It turns out that this is the old place...... I don't want a humble gentleman like Senior Brother Liu, but I also know how to be petty. ”

Senior Brother Liu was blushing again, and when he was about to argue, he heard Xue Zhenjun say again: "It's just that the two of you are here, can't I just watch from the sidelines?" It's still early in the morning, so my brother might as well send me down the mountain, and I've been in the mountain for half a year, and I haven't been to the city yet. ”

Senior Brother Liu hesitated: "Senior brother is still young, you are ...... alone."

Xue Zhenjun smiled and said: "Senior brother, I am wearing this Taoist robe, which one of the ordinary people who does not open their eyes dare to provoke?" ”

There is a county town named Wudang under the mountain, which is built according to the Yuxu Palace, if you plane to Chaotian Palace, the huge county town does not save one. Niu Er will always go down the mountain to have a good time every month, and when he comes back, he will say to Xue Zhenjun, and it will be enough, but Niu Er said that when you look up in the county, there are always people wearing Taoist robes.

Most of the officials and messengers in the city avoided them when they saw them wearing Taoist robes, and they didn't dare to provoke them at all. In this way, he dared to let Senior Brother Liu send him to the city.

Senior Brother Liu thought about it in his heart, and in the end he was moved, and nodded: "Okay, it's just that Senior Brother don't want to walk around, wait for me in front of the Yuxu Palace before dark, and then go back to the mountain." ”

"Okay."

Without further ado, Senior Brother Liu carried Xue Zhenjun on his back and took another shortcut, but after a moment, he fell down the mountain, ran for a while, and sent Xue Zhenjun to the city gate.

Xue Zhenjun landed on his feet and immediately said, "Senior brother, go quickly, don't let Senior Sister Li wait in a hurry." Hurry up, hurry up, go away! ”

Senior Brother Liu was worried about the beauty, and Xue Zhenjun was not like a child in the world, so he immediately said no more, turned his head and left.

Waving goodbye to Senior Brother Liu, Xue Zhenjun turned his head to take a look, and saw that the city wall of Wudang County was only two zhang long, and it was no more than a thousand steps long. The gate was opened, and on either side stood four soldiers, but they were dressed in tatters, and even the spears were rusty.

And some of the peddlers' pawns passed by, and gave the tax collector a few pieces of brass, and let him go. Xue Zhenjun's heart was excited, but he frowned when he groped his sleeve. In addition to the silver ticket on his body, it is gold leaf, where is the copper coin?

He was about to say a few words to the tax collector, but when he saw that the little official didn't look at it, he ran straight to a person behind him, and shouted, "What is in the car, Wu Na man?" Quickly open the inspection! ”

Huh? No one cares about themselves? This is a strange thing.

He stopped slightly, and then a soldier said, "Why did the little Taoist stay here?" ”

Xue Zhenjun said: "No tax? ”

The soldier Ding Nahan said: "People outside the square, what is the tax on the land? The trail chief must be a newcomer, why don't you even know about this? ”

Xue Zhenjun was stunned. If you want to destroy the Buddha in all dynasties, when it comes to not producing, you don't pay taxes, since monks don't need to pay taxes, then you naturally don't need to be a Taoist priest.

Immediately in a happy mood, he ignored the ridicule of the soldiers, and walked into the city with a little bow. This county town is quite cramped, there is only a cross street back and forth, and the official offices and prosperous places are all on the street. And it seems that most of the counties in this world are like this, rich in the east and noble in the west, poor in the south and cheap in the north.

Xue Zhenjun wandered around, saw a pawnshop, and went in to exchange for some scattered silver taels. After that, I walked around, bought some strange things, ate some food that I had never seen before, and after a while, it was tasteless.

In the end, in an agrarian society, most of the handicrafts are playthings, and the food is not as delicious as the food in the stove on the mountain.

Throwing the playthings he bought to the naughty boy on the side of the road, Xue Zhenjun thought about going out of the city to Chaotian Palace to take a look. The wayfinder asked where he was, and after walking for a while, he saw a three-story building covered with red and hanging colors, and the sound of silk and bamboo in it was melodious, and occasionally the sound of men and women laughing came.

Xue Zhenjun thought for a moment, thinking that this is the Qinglou, right? It's a pity that he is still young, and now he can only pass the addiction.

His master Yuan Deqiong looked quite old-fashioned, and if he learned that he was visiting the Qinglou, he was afraid that he would have to have a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots. Xue Zhenjun regretted that he collected his thoughts and walked with his head bored.

But as soon as he passed the door, there was a commotion at first, and then a person flew in front of him with a loud voice.

Xue Zhenjun was so shocked that he stopped, turned his head and saw four big men coming out, and scolded: "You bull nose, you don't have half a tael of silver, and you dare to come to Furong Mansion to eat white food?" If you don't teach a lesson today, I'm afraid I don't know how powerful your grandfather Wang is. Call me! ”

Is this a white prostitute?

Xue Zhenjun was about to retreat to the side to watch the fun, when he heard the man on the street shouting: "The old Tao is a cultivator. ”

Hey? How did it sound so familiar? When I turned my head, I saw that old man with a blue nose and swollen face, who was not Zhang Daoren? This old liar, deceived to eat and drink, deceived to the Qinglou?

"Don't bluff me, Sister Cui has already tested it, and your tricks are all fake."

"Wait, I have a fellow here, and I will bring silver taels with me." Zhang Daoren pointed casually, and several big men suddenly looked at Xue Zhenjun with unkind eyes.

Xue Zhenjun was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly said: "Everyone, Xiaodao is just passing by, and I am not familiar with this person. ”

The Taoist was extremely shameless, and pleaded: "Zhenjun nephew, and I helped Uncle Shi with this, Uncle Shi will definitely teach you the way of cultivation when he turns his head." ”

The four men hulala surrounded Xue Zhenjun, and the leading man said with an unkind face: "That little Taoist priest, pay the money quickly, otherwise I will send you to the yamen to eat the head!" ”

Xue Zhenjun took a deep breath and asked with a smile, "I don't know how many silver taels?" ”

The man stretched out two fingers: "Two taels!" Nothing less is enough! ”

Xue Zhenjun folded his hands and groped in his sleeves, and threw over a piece of silver: "Two taels are more than enough, and the more will be rewarded for you." ”
