Chapter 14 Whose Idiot Is Sick (1)
Early in the morning of the second day, the old Taoist priest was interrupted by the maid of the Song Mansion, saying that the master had set up a banquet in the east hall, and that the meal had been prepared at this moment, and the immortal chief was specially invited to come.
The old Taoist priest was used to being lazy, and he didn't want to get up so early in the morning, but when he heard that the meal had been prepared, he put on a robe and went to the east hall, but when he passed by the room of the girl and Yu Nian, he found that neither of them had woken up, so he didn't bother.
Soon, under the leadership of his subordinates, the old Taoist priest came to the Song Mansion meeting room. As soon as he entered the table, he saw that Lu Yingchao and Song Yuanwai were already present, and looking at the expressions of the two, they should be discussing something, very engrossed, seeing the old Taoist priest sitting down, Song Yuanwai smiled and pointed to the old Taoist priest who seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and said to Lu Yingchao: "Coincidentally, this is not coming, why don't you ask this immortal chief in person." ”
After that, seeing that the heroes of yesterday's demon retreat had arrived, Song Yuanwai hurriedly got up and bowed his hand, and continued happily: "The two immortal chiefs worked hard yesterday, and the old man should have entertained the VIPs carefully, and then bothered for the cold house after recuperating his energy, but because the incident happened suddenly, he set up a feast today to compensate for the two of them. ”
Song Yuanwai's enthusiastic words overwhelmed the young Taoist who had never been very knowledgeable about personnel, and after a while, he remembered to reply: "Outside the staff is kind, Lu has thanked him here, but this demon subjugation is just a request from the master, and it is really a matter of the division......"
Before Lu Yingchao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Song Yuanwai again: "Hu~ Immortal Chief's words are wrong, even if it is a matter of division, it is also a letter sent by me and the house, I want to come to the Quartet Immortal Mountain to care about the blessings of the common people, and shade the peace of this Yu County for more than 100 years, so I appointed two immortal chiefs to go down the mountain!" ”
When he was a little embarrassed by Song Yuanwai's extravagant praise, the old Taoist priest interjected and asked, "Master Song, Lu Daoyou, why do you want to ask the poor Dao?" ”
Hearing this, Song Yuanwai turned his head and smiled at the old Taoist priest with a puzzled face: "Oh, it's the newly accepted disciple next to you, he was originally a young man from Taoyuan Building, and it just so happened that the old man had a little friendship with the shopkeeper of the restaurant, so he had met a few times, but I didn't know when he came to the door of the immortal family, but I didn't expect to be able to exert his magical powers. ”
The old Taoist priest nodded, after all, he was clear in his heart, how much can a rich man know about a little-known small restaurant handyman?
It's just that when Lu Yingchao heard it, he didn't expect that the young man was still an ordinary restaurant guy a few days ago, and he felt more and more that this matter was legendary, so he couldn't help but ask: "Strange, I saw that he, a mortal without the slightest cultivation, actually had a flying sword that gave birth to spirituality, and dared to ask who he was?" ”
Seeing Lu Yingchao's suspicions, the old Taoist priest's mind was racing, but his face pretended to be penniless, and he laughed: "That kid is really a little guy in the restaurant, Daoist friends don't need to be suspicious, but the spirit sword birth spirit and Qingtian Hongchen Jian should be no different, if there is, maybe there is no evil nature of the mirror demon!" ”
Only hearing the old Taoist priest's words, Lu Yingchao frowned slightly, although he was still young, most of the time he also cultivated on the mountain, but his knowledge was different from that of ordinary monks, and he vaguely looked at the former side carefully, and he couldn't see the truth for a while, so he believed what the old Taoist said, thinking of this, he couldn't help asking: "I don't know if that little brother has woken up, can he be hurt by the evil spirit?" ”
The old Taoist priest then grinned and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the mortal body forcibly urged the spiritual power in the sword and fainted from exhaustion." ”
"The two immortal elders are not only the same sect, but they can also gather at the same time, and it is gratifying for teachers and friends to meet." Song Yuanwai saw that the atmosphere was a little cold, and took the initiative to start to exchange wine cups with the two, so it didn't take long for the cups to be mixed in the east hall, but they also seemed to be harmonious.
Speaking of more than one year, he didn't wake up until the third pole of the day, but although he slept peacefully for a night, he still felt listless, the young man stretched his waist and looked at the unfamiliar environment in front of him, touched his head, didn't know what the situation was, slowly sat up straight, and slowly washed up.
Xu is heard the movement in the house, and suddenly there was a knock on the door from outside, and then shouted to Yu Nian inside the door: "Yu Shaoxia, the master has prepared a family banquet, I will take you over." ”
Hearing Yu Shaoxia's three words, Yu Nian, who was originally a little confused, was refreshed, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have been injured by the mirror demon's demon magic yesterday, so he fainted, but now it seems that there is no other pain except for the soreness and tiredness on his body. And just heard the maid say that this is Song Yuanwai's mansion, which means that the mirror demon may have been eliminated, thinking of this, he suddenly hurriedly put on his clothes, raised his head and walked out of the room.
But as soon as I went out, I saw the girl who also walked out of the room. At this time, her eyes were shining, and she was busy pestering the maid to ask what the family banquet was.
Of course, as soon as I heard all about what it was "lotus seed paste preserved chest, juice mandarin duck tube", every time the maid said a dish, the girl's eyes were brighter, although many had not eaten and even heard the name of the dish, but listening to it felt that almost all of them were from the hands of famous chefs, the girl couldn't help but swallow hard in her throat, Rao was used to hearing the famous dishes in Taoyuan Lou for more than a few years, and she was also dumbfounded, but she didn't expect this Song Mansion family banquet to be so luxurious.
Following for a while, Yu Yuan only found that this Song Mansion is very vast, the houses are continuous, the flowers and trees are luxuriant, today I calmed down and watched it carefully to understand how the richest man in Yu County is a big family.
When a few people arrived in the east hall, Yu Nian found that a few people Song Yuanwai and the old Taoist priest had been poured red by Song Yuanwai, raised his eyes and took a closer look, except for the two people, but also saw a young Taoist in a dark robe seated, born with handsome eyebrows and fairy bones, which made people unspeakable.
It's no wonder that Yu Nian, the young man had already fainted when Lu Yingchao made a move yesterday, so he didn't know the identity of the person who came at this time, but Song Yuanwai just enthusiastically persuaded the wine and food, even then it was a hot wine and a mouth full of oil, but the young man who had not known each other for more than a year just took care of the vegetables gently, chewed slowly, and looked gentle and elegant.
Seeing that there are guests, Yu Nian can be much more restrained, although he is just a country boy, but for the number of etiquette, still attaches great importance to the number of etiquette, after all, he has been working in the Taoyuan Building in Yu County for a long time, and there are a lot of dignitaries and nobles who have been entertained, so he has naturally learned a lot.
In fact, Lu Yingchao had been carefully observing from the side for more than a long time, and he saw that he was just an ordinary teenager, and he had no cultivation in his body. But the day before yesterday, the ancient sword injured the mirror demon and he really saw it with his own eyes, what mystery is this hiding? The young Taoist was puzzled, and it wasn't until Yu Nian sat down that he introduced himself: "In the Lu Ying Dynasty of the Lower Sifang Mountain, may I ask if Little Brother Yu is sick?" ”
"I'm bothered by Daoist Lu, I'm fine." When Yu Nian heard that it was actually an immortal chief from Sifang Mountain, he was instantly in awe, his eyes widened, and his eyebrows were full of envy, yes, this is what the immortal chief of Sifang Mountain should look like! The young man sighed in his heart, compared with this young Lu Daoist, the old Taoist priest who was talking about the river with Song Yuan was really an outlier in Sifang Mountain.
Yang Qing on the side was also surprised when he heard Lu Yingchao say where he came from, and he pursed his lips and smiled: "Presumably, Brother Lu must be a leader among his peers, I have long heard that Sifang Mountain is the first sect today, and the immortal law is profound and wonderful, and everyone respects it." ”
"The girl has won the award, but she is just a mediocre person in the Quartet Mountain." Lu Yingchao smiled, and then slightly looked at the girl in front of her, thirteen or fourteen years old, with a delicate face, clear eyes, and a very clever and lovely look, but she had no cultivation like the restaurant boy.
As soon as he heard this, the old Taoist priest was not happy, stood up and carried the wine jug with a red head and a swollen face, and complained to the girl with spittle: "This little Pixiu, your father and I are not from Sifang Mountain?" Why haven't I seen you boast so much! ”
Before the words fell, the old Taoist priest collapsed with a grunt, choked for a while, and continued to mumble about what he was a master of the Quartet Mountain who had come to enter the world to cultivate.
When the girl saw that the old Taoist priest was already drunk, she no longer paid attention to him, but only cared about a piece of venison and chewed it slowly.
Lu Yingchao couldn't hold back his curiosity at this time, and gently drank a glass of wine for Yu Nian and asked: "Little Brother Yu, yesterday when I watched you fight against the Mirror Demon, I happened to see that you had a flying sword that protected the master, and this kind of technique seems to come from the same vein of my Sifang Mountain, but Little Brother Yu, you don't seem to be practicing, so Lu is curious, so I want to ask you." ”
Yu Nian heard that some people were very interested in the ancient sword left by his father, and his heart was happy, but he didn't know that the spirit sword could protect the master, and now when he heard Lu Yingchao mention it, a trace of remembrance suddenly flashed in his eyes. This quaint long sword is the only relic left to him by his father, and he didn't expect to be able to protect him in times of danger.
Thinking of this, I inevitably thought of my father again, but soon, Yu Nian thought of Lu Yingchao's problem, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said: "The sword was left by my father, I don't know what the origin is, but this sword is something that my father carried with him before his death, and now it has only arrived in my hand." ”
When Lu Yingchao heard this, he raised his eyebrows even more, and then said uncertainly: "It seems that Ling Zun should have a lot of connections with Sifang Mountain, and looking at the ancient way of Little Brother Yu, Ling Zun must also be a chivalrous person." ”
Yu Nian was dizzy by chivalrous words at this time, as if the mirror demon was injured by himself this time, and his vanity was greatly satisfied, but he didn't hear any rumors about his father, so he had to lower his head and say: "I don't know if my father is a monk from Sifang Mountain, he just left me this long sword." ”
When Lu Yingchao heard this, he showed a hint of thought.
At this moment, the old Taoist priest suddenly interrupted drunkenly while holding the wine jug: "Lu Daoyou, now Miss Song has not been rescued, and the mirror demon is nowhere to be found, we can't eat white food in the Song Mansion!" ”
"It turns out that the mirror demon hasn't gotten rid of ......," the young man thought to himself.
When she said this, everyone present was in trouble, and when she couldn't think of a way, the girl finally put down the noodle bowl in her hand, and suddenly said: "I heard that Miss Song used to come back to her senses during the day, so it is better to go outside to find out the whereabouts of Miss Song." ”
The drunken old Taoist priest pressed Yang Qing's head inexplicably, and then scolded with a smile: "What does the little girl know, do you want to tell me where to find it?" ”
Yang Qing glanced at the old Taoist priest angrily, and then said with a serious face: "If you want to catch this injured mirror demon, you have to find a way to lure this monster back, with her current situation, she is already startling the snake." I know that we have to deal with her, I am afraid that I will hide and refuse to come back, and when the yin qi is at its peak on the night of the full moon of fifteen, no one can do anything about her, blindly looking for the mirror demon like a headless fly is the next step, and there is someone behind it in the dark, if in my opinion, I have to prescribe the right medicine. ”
Everyone looked at her in unison, the girl was not stage frightened, and took another piece of meat from the plate, sorted out her thoughts slightly, and then slowly continued: "You must know that although this monster is powerful, it will not appear for no reason, it must be something between Miss Song and this mirror demon." The reason for this, I'm afraid that Miss Song sent it to the door herself, but if you want to know the truth, you must go to another party to ask clearly, Dad, do you remember the little villager who told the fortune? ”
The old Taoist priest slapped his knee vigorously, and instantly sobered up, and replied: "Of course I remember, isn't it that little guy with a dirty face, who took fifteen yuan and exchanged three True Yang Talismans from Poor Dao." ”
Yang Qing nodded and smiled: "Yes, but since he knew that Miss Song was haunted by evil spirits, why didn't he directly ask someone to draw a talisman to subdue demons and suppress demons, but only asked for a peace talisman, and it was no accident that Miss Song was already a mirror demon at that time, and the little villager was able to hang the peace charm on her neck safe and sound, in fact, when the mirror demon refused to come out that day, I had some doubts, so I deliberately tried it, but I didn't expect her to risk the threat of a big loss of mana to stop the three of us, so it can be seen that That little villager must have something in his hand that can restrain the mirror demon, and he can't find the mirror demon now anyway, so it's better to find him first. The strange things in the Song Mansion started after the little brother of the Zhang family was beaten, so it is better to go to the little brother of the Zhang family to have a look. ”
When Zhang Yuanwai heard this, he almost overturned the table with a bang, and then glared at him and said angrily: "I see, I just said, this matter is absolutely inseparable from that poor boy." The two immortal elders, you must make the decision for me, catch this scoundrel ruffian, and extort a confession from him. ”
Lu Yingchao didn't know who the little brother of the Zhang family was, so he simply didn't speak, but looked at the old Taoist. Yu Nian wanted to mention the little brother of the Zhang family to say a few words, but in the end he didn't say anything, and also looked at the old Taoist.
The old Taoist priest was helpless, so he had to speak: "I think what Song Yuanwai said is reasonable, you lead the way in a while, little brother, let's go to Zhang's house to see if they are making trouble." ”
Yu Nian was a little inexplicably anxious, although he was not very familiar with the little brother of the Zhang family, but his temperament was still known to the young man, according to his honest character on weekdays, how could he collude with the mirror demon, he should argue a few words for him, but the problem is that Song Yuanwai was angry at the moment, and he was firmly believing in the words of the old Taoist priest and the girl, how could he rush Tai Sui, so he could only nod and said: "Of course I can lead the way, but I have the impression that the little brother of the Zhang family has always been honest and duty, but I have to ask clearly before taking people." ”
Lu Yingchao also understood a little at this time, and when he saw Yu Nian's appearance, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, little brother Yu, our monks in Sifang Mountain have always only done things to eliminate harm for the people and kill demons, and will never harm innocent people." ”
Yu Nian saw that Lu Yingchao had already spoken, so he was also relieved, quickly finished the food in the bowl, and said while wiping his mouth: "Go, I'll take you there." ”
