Difficult days are like years, and thousands of years must be fleeting.

The strange man preached for seven days, and it seemed like a thousand years had passed, but it seemed like an instant.

The scriptures are still those scriptures, and every time they are spoken, they always give people new insights and understandings.

When the strange man's voice completely disappeared, Li Zhi, Qin Huaiyu and the eldest grandson Huanting opened their eyes one after another.

The house is still the same house, the tables and chairs are still the same set of tables and chairs, and even the dishes from the Luoyang Restaurant are still steaming.

Everything was as it was before, but the strange man was gone.

"Thank you for the kindness of your predecessors in preaching, I wonder if I can leave my name? ——”

Li Zhi bowed deeply outside the door and shouted loudly.

Although Li Zhi already had a guess in his heart, he always wanted to ask for a good answer.

Qin Huaiyu and the eldest grandson Huanting also didn't care about the joy of breaking through the realm, and they also bowed to the ground behind Li Zhi.

"Haha, your grandfather and your father both consider themselves to be my descendants, is your kid an exception? That's it, it's here, when you really grow up, maybe you and I will see each other again. ”

In the void, a voice came, and it was the departing stranger.

"This ...... Is that all true? ”

Li Zhi has always known that the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, from the day of the anti-Sui dynasty, claimed to be the descendant of Laozi Li Er.

After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, Taoism was established as the state religion of the Tang Dynasty, and the imperial palace was large, but all palaces of a certain scale had tablets dedicated to Lao Tzu Li Er.

However, no one has ever known what Li Er looks like, is this person really that one?

Li Zhi didn't speak, not knowing whether to admit it or refute it.

"Your Highness, it seems that the man is really gone?"

After a long time, Qin Huaiyu said cautiously.

The winter sun outside the house is still shining, the red plums under the eaves are like fire, the frost branches are proud in the north wind, and the snow has melted away, indicating that time has really passed inadvertently.

"Brother Huaiyu, Miss Wanting, this matter is a little strange, you two try not to publicize it, if something really happens, I'm afraid it is not something we can bear."

Li Zhi couldn't fully understand the other party's approach, especially this time he also involved Qin Huaiyu and eldest grandson Huanting, it seems that both of them have benefited, who knows if there will be a meeting between cause and effect?

When the three of them went out to fight their horses and left, the guards stationed here did not show any strange expressions, as if they really stayed here for one night and left the next day.

However, Li Zhi specially asked about the date, and it was indeed the New Year in three days.

"Your Highness, this is also amazing, I even have a time to reach the 'Divine Realm'? Aren't you on an equal footing with my father? ”

Along the way, Qin Huaiyu was very excited, he couldn't believe his entry at all, but Li Zhi secretly shook his head.

If that weird man is really the one, listening to him talk about the Seven Heavenly Dao before breaking through to the Divine Realm, this is already a bit slow, okay?

However, the eldest grandson Huanting on the side was silent all the way, and she didn't say a word when she saw that she was about to reach the north gate of Luoyang City.

"Miss Wanting, what is on your mind?"

Li Zhi saw that the eldest grandson Huanting's expression was a little unnatural, her current realm was already a proper peak of channeling, that is, the foundation was successfully built, and she was about to enter the "Jindan Period".

Such a realm, if it was placed more than a year ago, would definitely be the top existence in the entire Datang.

"Your Highness, with your light, Wan Ting was able to listen to the sermon in front of that master, and this time Wan Ting broke through the 'dead end' in one fell swoop. Such an achievement has been able to catch up with the founding patriarch of the year, and even my master has not been able to reach it. ”

"There was strict training in the master's gate, but if there are disciples in the sect who can break through the 'dead pass', they must go to the forbidden place behind the master's gate, and be ...... Wan Ting is afraid that she will leave Her Highness temporarily. ”

The eldest grandson Huanting's words became lower and lower, and her head was lowered, and she didn't dare to look up at Li Zhi at all.

Qualifications and entry like the eldest grandson Huanting, although they are considered the best choice in their entire division, they are definitely not the most top-notch.

For example, her teacher, who was also a peerless figure back then, walked the rivers and lakes as a saint in the door, and how many heroes in the world bent their waists for her.

Now that you are the head of a faction, the eldest grandson Huanting used to be the only disciple of Shizun, or when she left the sect, Shizun accepted a new little junior sister surnamed Duanmu, who seemed to be just three or four years old.

"Since it is your master's strict training, you should obey it, but you don't have to leave in such a hurry, right? Anyway, there are three more days before the New Year, why don't you wait for the New Year to leave? ”

For more than a year, Li Zhi has become accustomed to following Qin Huaiyu and eldest grandson Huanting by his side, and he also understands the meaning of his former mother, eldest grandson Wuji, and his uncle, eldest grandson Wuji.

Sending the eldest grandson Huanting into the palace, even if it is a woman chosen for herself, even if she cannot be appointed as the princess of Jin in the future, the position of a side concubine will not be able to run away after all.

It's a pity that their good intentions are probably going to come to naught, and Li Zhi at this time is no longer the original Li Zhi.

Originally, Li Zhi was "destined" to those women, such as Queen Wang, Concubine Xiao Shu, and even Wu Meiniang, but now Li Zhi may not be able to close it, let alone this eldest grandson Huanting who appeared out of thin air?

……

This is the first time that Li Zhi has spent the New Year outside after coming to Datang, except for the local officials in Luoyang who came to visit, Li Zhi has no other entertainment.

Such a quiet New Year made Li Zhi a little unaccustomed.

If it was in previous years, the palace would naturally be very lively, and some of Li Zhi's brothers and sisters, big and small, would not recognize them all.

He also has to go to the Qin Mansion and Confucius Gate to pay New Year's greetings, and he will also make an appointment with the Qin family brothers and the Cheng family brothers to go to the "Drunken Sky Tower" to have a feast.

In Luoyang, it was much cleaner, and even Sun Simiao didn't know where to go.

Old man Sun was an idle person, and he sat in the hall for several months, and the incurable diseases in Luoyang City were almost solved, and he traveled all over the world again.

In his words, when it comes to the "Jindan period", under normal circumstances, you can live for a few hundred more years, and you have to do something for the people of the world, right?

Li Zhi didn't think so, even if he lived a few hundred more years, how many more people could he save?

also gave him a suggestion in a bad taste, it is better to collect all the effective prescriptions of ancient and modern times, and organize them into a booklet and publish them all over the world.

Let all the doctors in the world have an authoritative reference, so that more patients can be saved?

Sure enough, Sun Simiao was very interested in this proposal, saying that His Royal Highness King Jin was simply his confidant, and he had already started to do it two years ago.

Old man Sun is gone, and Li Zhi doesn't know when his booklet will be sorted out, and will he be called "Qianjinfang"?

No matter how idle the year is, there will always be a time when it will end.

The eldest grandson, Huanting, barely finished the Lantern Festival, so she asked Li Zhi to resign, and claimed that she would be back soon.

At least half a year, at most a year, he will be able to finish the affairs in the door and return to Li Zhi's side again.

Li Zhi didn't limit her time, but just told her to practice hard, especially the cultivation of the "Five Fowl Opera", and she must not relax.

In this way, the eldest grandson Huanting reluctantly left Luoyang and headed west.

Today's Li Zhi, the realm has come to the "Yuan Infant Period", and he is a "twin" that he has never heard of?

On the sea of knowledge, which has been extended to 20 zhang square, there are three things floating, which can be said to stand on their feet.

The one who occupies the top position is still the weird little gun, maybe it is a little inappropriate to continue to call it a small gun now, and the body size has grown to the length of a normal big gun.

On the outside, it has become more mediocre, it seems to be an ordinary big iron gun, the only feature is that it is a little darker?

This black spear fell into a deep sleep again, and since it entered Li Zhi's body, it has never been awake less and more sleeping.

Unless something good appears in the outside world, it will not arouse the interest of this gun master.

It's just that the movement of the strange man this time is really not small, and Li Zhi and the three of them have broken through one after another, but this black gun has been completely confused?

Looking at its performance before and after, Li Zhi has reason to suspect that this guy has amnesia, at least part of his memory, and as for whether it is the most critical part, he can only ask himself.

But can this guy speak?

The other two are naturally the two yuan babies, one black and one white.

If the process from Jindan to Yuanying is to give birth to another new self, then the process from Yuanying to Shenshen is to slowly cultivate oneself.

It's just that the energy and resources required to cultivate these two primordial babies, one black and one white, are not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Even if Li Zhi can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon now, he can only absorb it slowly, there is no specific method, really the sun and moon belong to their family?

As soon as the Purple Mansion Yuanying is visible, it can be looked forward to from now on.

At this time, it is no longer a simple accumulation of energy, but a sense of one's own inner origin in addition to diligent cultivation.

What is the heart? It's the perception of the world.

What is the eye? It is the observation of all things in heaven and earth.

What does it mean? It is the growth of one's own willpower.

What is Qi? It is the running of its own blood.

What's left? It is the exercise of people's spirit.

And exercising Yuanying is the process of constantly improving yourself and polishing yourself again.

……

Seventy-nine rivers open, eighty-nine geese come.

Just as Li Zhi was thinking about going out for a walk, a person ran in in a panic outside the courtyard gate, and no matter how far away, Li Zhi recognized it as the commander of the personal guards beside Wei Zheng.

said that it was a personal guard, and the personal guards around Wei Zheng, if they were pulled out separately and put it right, there was really no one who was Wei Zheng's opponent.

Wei Zheng is not a scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, he came from the troubled times, and now he is a Wendao cultivator in the realm of "life", which is equivalent to the innate realm of martial cultivation.

"Your Highness, damn it, you failed to protect Lord Wei—"

As soon as he saw Li Zhi's face, the guard fell to the ground, still holding a "letter" in his hand, and tears rained down.

"If the Lone King remembers correctly, your name is Wei Hu, right? Or is it a distant nephew of your Lord Wei, what happened to Lord Wei? ”

Seeing the other party's expression, even though he knew that something big must have happened, Li Zhi still sat calmly, where did this look like a thirteen-year-old boy?

"Your Highness has a good memory, and the humble position is Wei Hu, and Lord Wei is ...... No, no, no, Lord Wei was kidnapped by the monsters, and asked the lowly to bring a letter, and the other guards were killed by them. ”

Wei Zheng thought that his strength was not bad, and he always only brought ten personal guards with him when he traveled around, but he didn't expect to suffer such a catastrophe today.

"Youkai? Wei Hu, stand up and cry, what do you look like, are you still a five-foot-tall man? ”

If you want to talk about Wei Hu, Li Zhi still knows a little bit.

Wei Zheng's distant nephew, the young man is in his early twenties this year, and he is already a master in the later stage of "Huajin", serving as Wei Zheng's personal guard commander, and he is also conscientious and hardworking on weekdays.

"Your Highness, ten days ago, Lord Wei ended the disaster relief in Puzhou and led us back to Luoyang.

"I took the other nine brothers to fight to the death, but I couldn't stand them too many monsters, even if I cut some of them, I was still outnumbered."

"Those things are too cruel, they gnawed the corpses of the brothers in front of them, and the lowly duty was also injured, if it wasn't for Lord Wei's help, the lowly duty would probably be buried in the stomach of those things."

As if thinking of that terrifying scene, Wei Hu fought a cold war.

"What about Lord Wei? Who wrote this epistle? ”

Li Zhi took the letter from Wei Hu's hand, but he didn't rush to open it, let's call it a letter, Li Zhi didn't see what kind of material it was made of.

"Lord Wei killed a few monsters and injured their leaders, but another big guy emerged from the river and directly stunned Lord Wei."

"Fortunately, among them, a thin old monster whispered a few words beside the big one, and then threw the letter to the lowly one, and let the lowly ...... Let the lowly go back to Luoyang City to meet His Highness. ”

Wei Hu trembled and said that everything he did was worthy of beheading.

On the battlefield, the Lord will be captured and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and one of his personal guards actually ran back alive, how can he not be greedy for life and afraid of death?

The "river water" in Wei Hu's mouth is the Yellow River known to later generations.

In fact, the name of the Yellow River was first proposed in the Western Han Dynasty, but it was not widely recognized, and it was still called "river water" until the early Tang Dynasty.

Similarly, at that time, the Yangtze River was not called the Yangtze River, and it also had an exclusive name - "Jiangshui".

Seeing that Wei Hu had nothing to say with his head down, Li Zhi opened the special letter.

"Li Tang Xiaoer, nosy, if you want to save Wei Zheng, you can come to Bianzhou."

The sixteen words were crooked, but Li Zhi was confused.

It turns out that the monsters, this is aimed at themselves?

However, since he came to Henan Road, he didn't seem to have left Luoyang, so why did he provoke the guys who were far away in Bianzhou, or a group of "monsters" in Wei Hu's mouth?

If you can't figure it out, you can't figure it out, Wei Zheng still has to save it after all.

Not to mention that Wei Zheng is an important minister of the Tang Dynasty, just because the other party was kidnapped by himself, Li Zhi can't stand idly by.

"Wei Hu, do you still have the strength to accompany me back to Bianzhou?"

Wei Hu is a real person, and he didn't dare to peek at the content of the letter halfway, but now that he heard Li Zhi ask like this, he didn't know that His Royal Highness the King of Jin was planning to save their family, Lord Wei.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin rest assured, Wei Hu is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, His Royal Highness is going to rescue Lord Wei, Wei Hu is willing to be the forerunner——"

Wei Zheng was an important minister before the Tang Emperor, and he was Wei Hu's uncle, so Wei Hu couldn't retreat because of reason, public or private.

"Okay, Brother Huaiyu, go and prepare three fast horses, I'll go to Bianzhou later——"

Qin Huaiyu didn't even say a word of doubt, turned around and went out to prepare the horse.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, three fast horses? Are you going to go with just the three of us? ”

Wei Hu, who was standing aside with his hands down, asked puzzled.

"Haha, Wei Hu, this is the letter that the other party asked you to bring, and it can be regarded as a war letter. The other party has written a book, I am a dignified king of the Tang and Jin Dynasty, can I still be frightened by a group of them ghosts? ”

Li Zhi casually handed the letter to Wei Hu again.

"This ...... You can't go, Your Highness—"

Whether Li Zhi was frightened by the letter Wei Hu didn't know, Wei Hu himself was really frightened by Li Zhi's decision.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, you are a golden body, how can you be in danger? If you want to save Lord Wei, you can send a thousand men to the lowly position, or let the lowly position return to Beijing and hire a master. ”

"You can't go yourself, if this Lord Wei knows, ten heads of a humble post are not enough to cut off."

Seeing that Li Zhi was actually serious, Wei Hu immediately panicked.

If something happens to Wei Zheng, at best, Wei Hu will be beheaded, and if there is a problem with His Royal Highness the King of Jin in front of him, their old Wei family will probably have to dig up the ancestral grave.

"Your Highness, the three fast horses are ready, and we can set off at any time-"

At this time, Qin Huaiyu had already returned, carrying his pair of "tile-faced golden maces" behind his back, and two big burdens in his hands, it seemed that everything was ready to stop.

"Wei Hu, the Lone King is about to leave, do you want to go with you, or stay in Luoyang City and wait?"

Li Zhi also stood up, looked at Wei Hu with a smile and said.

Okay, this Li Zhi is also a little too inauthentic, obviously bullying honest people?

"Your Highness, Your Highness, etc., lowly duties—"

After a stunned effort, Li Zhi and Qin Huaiyu had already jumped on horseback, and the helpless Wei Hu could only follow out.

Hey, why did you come to His Royal Highness King Jin, how good would it be to go back to Chang'an directly to invite a master?

The three fast horses galloping eastward, still the cold north wind, but not as sad as Wei Hu's heart......
