At the foot of the mountain where Lanruo Temple is located.

Yan Chixia looked at Zuo Dao who had landed on the ground, and said: "Brother Zuo's talent is really enviable, with the Dao species in his body, I am afraid that in a few years, he will surpass Yan." ”

If it weren't for his strength being strong enough, and the chance magic he obtained was not comparable to ordinary people.

Maybe this time I'm really going to be compared to Zuo Dao.

He didn't expect that Zuo Dao would be able to do this just after he came into contact with the Imperial Sword Technique.

It really made him a little unbelievable.

After the left path landed, put away the snake bone long knife.

said with a smile: "Brother Yan is polite, I have to thank Brother Yan for helping me this time when I killed the demon in Montenegro." ”

"If it weren't for Brother Yan's action, I'm afraid I would be alone, and I wouldn't be able to kill that demon at all." ’

Yan Chixia said: "Killing demons and eliminating demons is Yan's duty, but after today, Yan should travel the world again, if Brother Zuo is looking for me, I can rely on this thing to find it." ”

After finishing speaking, he took out a paper crane made of talismans, and there was still some mana circulating on it.

Yan Chixia said before that she wanted to travel to the world.

Now that this incident has made him realize a lot, many things that he couldn't figure out before have now been explained.

Nothing is light, but chic.

Zuo Dao took the paper crane, and even understood the purpose of this object.

With the talisman as the body and the mana as the hub, you can search for people for thousands of miles or even thousands of miles and deliver some news.

It's a very useful little spell.

He arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Yan." ”

Yan Chixia smiled and waved her hand, "Why should Brother Zuo be so polite. ”

He took a sip of the wine gourd from his waist, then turned and walked off into the distance.

A moment later, Yan Chixia's voice came:

"Tao Tao Dao,

Dao Dao

The Tao is very good.

Heaven and earth and humanity are the way of the sword,

black and white ecliptic, equator,

The way of things, the way of things, the way of the road,

I am very Taoist,

Bah, blah ”

watched Yan Chixia's figure disappear into the distance.

At this time, Zhao Hu, who came over, spoke: "This Yan Chixia is really a wonderful person. ”

Zuo Dao nodded slightly.

Yan Chixia is indeed a wonderful person, but I don't know when they will be able to get together again.

I'm afraid that when we get together again, Yan Chixia will already be a true king.

When the time comes, there is a true friend, sitting and talking, it is really a wonderful thing in life.

Zuo Dao looked at everyone and said, "It's time for me to rush to Kyoto to resume my life." ”

When Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others heard this, they also showed a look of excitement on their faces.

They had been away from home for almost a year.

When they left Beijing, they were still a small general flag, but now they have been transferred to Beijing with their own adults, and they have reached 100 households.

Although he is not a big official in Kyoto, it can be said that he has returned to his hometown.

The one-armed hundred-household dynasty glanced at the newly acquired small flag official beside him.

opened his mouth and said: "Mahan, it is your blessing to follow the adult, and when you enter Kyoto, you have to change the ranger temperament on your body, and save yourself the shame of the adult." ”

When Ma Han heard this, he patted the brocade guard uniform on his body, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, I won't embarrass the pacification envoy." ”

Wang Chao nodded slightly, and then hurriedly followed.

A group of people marched in the direction of Kyoto.

……

Just when everyone was about to enter Beijing.

Within Kyoto at the moment.

Cao Quan, the commander of the capital, looked at the dossiers piled up in front of him, and his face became more and more ugly.

He looked at the person beside him and asked, "In the past year, three officials in Kyoto have died unexpectedly, and even the official seal has been stolen, but you say that you have not found the slightest clue?" ”

When the man heard this, he said in a panicked voice: "My lord, I also found a colleague from the Hermit's Mansion to investigate together, but we really didn't notice the slightest trace of it. ”

"Those officials seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and only a pool of blood remained in the room."

"The official seal was also stolen, no matter how we investigated, we couldn't find the slightest clue, according to the subordinates, this matter must be a combination between those officials and monsters."

Cao Quan said angrily: "This is Kyoto, but at the feet of the Son of Heaven, what monsters can be reckless in Kyoto......"

As soon as his words fell, he remembered the national teacher who was summoned to the palace today to give a lecture to the emperor.

Cao Quan couldn't help gritting his teeth.

In this Kyoto, there is really a monster, and it is a big demon who has won the position of national teacher.

The thought of this filled his heart with indignation.

When these three cases first happened, he went to investigate, and he also noticed the demonic aura left at the scene.

And he also targeted the national teacher for the first time.

But after all, it was the Great Wei National Master, and there was no conclusive evidence, so how could he come forward to search.

Even if he was a brocade guard, he couldn't enter the door of the national teacher.

Not to mention, the current national teacher is deeply loved by the emperor, but he is a celebrity above the court.

Afterwards, he went to ask the old ancestor.

But the old ancestor persuaded him to put the matter on hold for the time being, and seemed to care nothing about the lives of those officials.

In desperation, he had no choice but to hand over the matter to his subordinates to investigate.

It's best if you can find some clues, but if you can't, there's no way to do it.

Cao Quan took a deep breath and said, "This matter is put aside for the time being, it is recently the time of the imperial examination, when all the scholars in the Great Wei will gather in Kyoto. ”

"This is the prosperity of my Great Wei Dynasty, and this time the world is changing, and the imperial court also intends to reform the imperial examination system and select some talents in addition to the seeds of study."

"When the time comes, there will inevitably be crowds of people in Kyoto, and people with intentions must not be allowed to make some other disturbances at the feet of the Son of Heaven."

"Otherwise, you will see you later."

When the man heard this, he immediately answered, and then turned and left the room.

Cao Quan leaned back in his chair, turned his head to look in the direction of the palace, frowned tightly, and said, "Ancestor, what are you thinking?" ”

"If it continues like this, Da Wei Ke will be harmed by that big centipede."

……

At this moment, Zuo Dao and the others walked to a mountain col.

This place is far from the nearest county seat, and there is a hundred miles of road.

Zhang Long glanced at the map in his hand and said, "My lord, there are no people within a radius of fifty miles in this place, only a small town is sixty miles away, and there is a county seat a hundred miles away. ”

"Judging from the humble position, it is better to speed up and rush to that town for the night."

Hearing this, Zuo Dao did not respond, but just looked towards the col not far away.

I saw a man dressed as a scholar, holding a long knife in his hand, chasing a man with his hands tied behind him.

Behind the two, a scholar was carrying a bookcase, desperately chasing the two in front.

Zuo Dao said to a few people beside him: "Bring them here." ”

Hear the words.

Mahan, who was in the crowd, immediately spoke: "My lord, I will go and bring them later." ”

After speaking, he rode his horse directly and chased after him.

On the left, he led a few people and walked slowly towards the col.

A moment later.

Ma Han took the three scholars with a panicked face, and came to Zuo Dao and the others.

The scholar who was originally still majestic, after seeing Zuo Dao and others, was like a frightened little chicken.

Zuo Dao looked at the scholar in front of him, and only felt a little familiar.

He said, "Who are you?" Why chase him? ”

When the scholar heard this, he immediately spoke: "Lord Qiyu, the younger one is named Zhu Xiaolian, and he is a scholar who entered Beijing to take the exam. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the unkempt man with his hands tied at his side.

continued: "Last night, I spent the night with the scholar in a barren mountain and wild temple, and this guy entered the door in the middle of the night, and I thought he was also a passing traveler. ”

"But I didn't think about it, this guy is a gangster who makes a living by blocking the road and robbing, holding a long knife, so he asked me to hand over the coil."

"I motioned to the scholar, and the two of them took it down together, and then tied it up, planning to take it to the official today."

"As a result, this villain wanted to grab the knife while I was asleep, and I found out, so there was the scene that adults just saw."

Hearing this, before Zuo Dao could speak, Zhao Hu laughed.

Zhao Hu pointed at the gangster with the horsewhip in his hand: "You said that you are armed with a long knife and make a living by robbery?" ”

When the villain heard this, he smiled and said: "Let the adults laugh, the little ones only rob the rich and help the poor on weekdays, and rarely do anything to people like them." ”

Zhao Hu grinned and said: "A gangster who makes a living by robbery, armed with a murderous blade, but is subdued by a scholar and a little scholar, it is really a wonderful thing." ”

Zuo Dao glanced at Zhao Hu, and Zhao Hu immediately kept silent.

He looked at the villain and said, "What's your name?" ”

The villain hurriedly spoke: "The little one is called Meng Longtan, and I have seen the adult." ”

Zhu Xiaolian's side.

The little scholar also whispered: "Adult, the little one is called Houxia." ”

When Zuo Dao heard this, he couldn't help touching his chin and said, "It's a little interesting." ”

He looked at the three of them and said, "Since this is the case, then you will go with us on the road, and when you arrive at the county seat, you will send this Meng Longtan to the official." ”

When Zhu Xiaolian heard this, his face immediately showed a touch of joy, and said, "Thank you, sir." ”

Meng Longtan was as dead as ashes, and glanced at Zhu Xiaolian with some unwillingness.

He must have poured eight lifetimes of blood mold before he thought about robbing this poor scholar.

As a result, I didn't get the money, and I ran into such a group of evil stars.

He was originally a native of Youzhou, and after Jinyiwei came, all places became much clearer.

So he deliberately came to the outside of Youzhou to rob his family.

Unexpectedly, I still ran into Jinyiwei.

How could he be so unlucky.

Zuo Dao said, "Send three brothers to take them and lead the way in front." ”

When Zhang Long heard this, he immediately responded.

Then I saw the three brocade-clothed guards immediately step forward, bent down to take the people, and the movements were smooth, and directly put the three of them on the back of the horse in front of them.

In the cries of pain of the three of them, they walked directly to the front.

Zhao Hu was a little puzzled, and said: "My lord, why bother so much, if you want me to see it, it is better to cut down that Meng Longtan with a knife, and then let the scholar take the scholar into Beijing to catch the exam." ”

"Bringing them will only drag down our leg strength in vain, and some of the gains outweigh the losses!"

Hearing this, Zuo Dao glanced at Zhao Hu, and tapped the latter's brain with the horsewhip in his hand.

opened his mouth and said: "You can cut it with a knife at every turn, and you have to use your brain and brain more in everything, understand?" ”

After finishing speaking, he stepped forward directly.

Zhao Hu touched his head in confusion, and then said a little confused: "Use your brain more?" What does this mean, sir? ”

Zhang Long smiled and said, "My lord, you are stupid." ”

When Zhao Hu heard this, he immediately said dissatisfiedly: "Nonsense, how can I be stupid?" You know nonsense. ”

Zhang Long glanced at the people in front of him and said in a low voice: "You say, when is the day to enter Beijing to take the exam?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Hu pondered for a moment and said, "It should be soon!" ”

Zhang Long said with a smile: "If these two rely on their foot strength, how long will it take to enter Kyoto." ”

Zhao Hu grinned and said: "If you don't ride a horse, just rely on your foot strength, at least more than three months, and more than April." ”

Zhang Long nodded and said, "So, you understand now?" ”

Zhao Hu scratched his head and said, "What do you mean to say that this scholar has to run for nothing and miss the day of the exam, so the adults should take them with them and make a good fate." ”

When Zhang Long heard this, he couldn't help sighing and said, "Huzi, listen to the words of adults, and use your brains more in the future." ”

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly followed.

Zhao Hu looked dazed, a little puzzled.

Soon.

It was nearly evening.

The Jinyi guard, who was walking in the forefront to explore the way, suddenly turned his horse's head and came back, and shouted at everyone: "My lord, on a hill in front, I have found a temple, I can go to the temple for the night tonight." ”

Hearing the brocade guard speak, everyone had a smile on their faces.

It is much better to have a place to settle down like a temple than for them to sleep in this barren mountain or wilderness.

Hearing this, Zuo Dao said, "Lead the way and go to the temple for the night." ”

When the man heard this, he immediately answered, and then walked in front to lead the way.

At this time, Zhang Long stepped forward and said, "My lord, there is no depiction of the temple on the map, I'm afraid this temple is a little strange. ”

Zhao Hu grinned and said: "It's just a temple, maybe it's a barren mountain and wild temple, so it's not on the map, and you're too timid." ”

When Zhang Long heard this, his eyes looked faintly, and then pointed to his brain.

Zhao Hu's face suddenly darkened.

Zuo Dao said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just a temple on the left and right, just look at it in the past, you can't let the brothers spend the night in this barren mountain and wilderness." ”

When Zhang Long heard this, he immediately stopped speaking.

It's late afternoon.

At last the people came to the temple.

I saw that on the top of the mountain, a temple that looked quite magnificent suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Zhao Hu's eyes widened and said, "How can there be such a temple in this ghost place?" ”

Zhang Long frowned slightly, and said, "There is something strange here. ”

Zuo Dao glanced at the three people on horseback, their faces were pale from the bumps, and they were retching there desperately.

He said, "All right, put them down, and I'll settle here tonight." ”

Hearing Zuo Dao's opening, a group of brocade guards also obediently put the three of them off their horses.

As soon as the three of them landed, they lay on the ground and kept retching.

Lying on their stomachs on their horses before, they were so upset that they were about to vomit out their bitter gall, and they were really afraid that they would die on horseback.

If you really die on horseback, I'm afraid it will become a joke in the world.

Zuo Dao turned over and dismounted, handed the horse to a brocade guard at his side, and then walked in with his feet raised.

When I entered the main hall, I saw a short monk holding a broom, cleaning the main hall.

As if sensing someone entering the main hall, he looked up.

After seeing Zuo Dao and the others, he immediately folded his hands and said: "The poor monk does not move, I have seen all the donors." ”

Zuo Dao used the Qi Hope Technique to look.

I saw the monk in front of me, without the slightest speciality, as if he was an ordinary mortal.

But in this ghost place, such a magnificent Buddhist temple was built, how could it be a mortal.

He said with a smile: "This official is the envoy of Youzhou Town, Zuo Dao, this time he was transferred to Beijing by the emperor's order, passing by here, I hope that the master will make it convenient for me to rest in the temple for one night." ”

Hearing Zuo Dao speak, Master Fudo smiled: "Why not. ”

Zuo Dao looked around and said, "Such a big Buddhist temple, is there only one master?" Why don't you see anyone else? ”

Master Fudo smiled: "This Buddhist temple in the mountain is hard, and they can't stand the life here, so they go down the mountain." ”

said.

He looked at the people behind Zuo Dao and said, "I'll prepare a room for you to have a good night's rest." ”

Immediately, he turned and walked towards the back of the main hall.

Seeing this, Zhang Long took a few brocade guards to follow, as if he was going to help the master tidy up together.

Not much.

Zhao Hu came to the side of Zuo Dao and said, "My lord, this place seems to be just an ordinary Buddhist temple. ”

"It's that this Buddhist temple is a little not serious, in the side hall, there is a wall, the wall is full of beautiful people, vivid, it is really amazing."

Hearing Zhao Hu speak, Zuo Dao nodded slightly, and then said, "It's okay, just ask the master later." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Master Fudo walking in with a group of brocade guards.

He looked at the crowd, folded his hands and said, "Amitabha! The guest rooms are ready for adults and adults to relax at any time. ”

Hearing this, Zuo Dao smiled and said, "Before that, can you ask the master for some fasting meals." ”

He pointed to the three Zhu Xiaolian behind him and said, "We are carrying dry food, these three are afraid that they are not used to eating, and Master Lao will let them fill their stomachs." ”

Master Fudo smiled: "This matter is simple, my lord is really a bodhisattva, and he has a relationship with my Buddha." ”

Just as he was about to turn around.

I only heard Zuo Dao continue to speak: "Just now, my subordinate came to report, in the side hall, I found a wall with a beautiful woman, I don't know what this means?" ”

When Master Fudo heard this, he said seriously: "It's just a legacy of the predecessors, adults don't have to care." ”

After finishing speaking, he went to bring some leftovers and let Zhu Xiaolian and the three of them eat them.

The left road is to go to the side hall, wanting to see the wall full of beautiful women.

When he came to the side hall, he saw the wall.

The painting on the wall, in the background, seems to be a place resembling a palace, and in the center, sits a beautiful woman dressed in blue-green.

And all around, it is covered with gorgeously dressed beauties, all of them charming and charming, looking like fairies.

And this kind of painting, as Zhao Hu said.

Lifelike!
