Volume 2 The Rivers and Lakes in the Temple and Outside the Temple Chapter 148 A Dream of Spring and Autumn (II)
A Dream of Spring and Autumn (II)
Li Daoyi's eyes widened, and his fingers trembled and pointed at Shen Lang and said, "Good boy, if you can't say it, you can just play it, you wait for Daoye!" After finishing speaking, he kicked his legs and jumped onto the roof. m.
Shen Lang screamed, and immediately attracted a team of soldiers, but they were all ordinary people, not to mention anything about flying in the air, even flying eaves and walking on the wall would be a problem.
They could only look at Li Daoyi, Li Daoyi stood on the roof with a grin, clenched his fists, stretched out his thumb and gently wiped the tip of his nose, and then inserted his waist and said proudly: "This Daoist will not play with you anymore!"
Li Dao turned around and was about to leave, and after thinking about it, he turned his head to Xiao Bai, but his eyes kept looking at Shen Lang.
He smiled evilly: "You kid is wilted, you don't have any gambling! Even cats cheat!"
After saying that, he grimaced and disappeared into a light and shadow.
"Meow!"
Hearing this call, as if he had heard a life talisman, Shen Lang's legs kept trembling, and he looked at Xiao Bai, who bared his teeth and bowed his back as if begging for mercy.
"Ouch!" The soldiers were about to chase out, when they saw a white shadow flash, and then Shen Lang rose into the air, and before he could fall to the ground, he was rushed forward by the white figure, knocked out, and finally fell heavily on the grass.
In the twilight of spring, God is also very willful, occasionally sprinkling a few drops of rain.
At this time, the grass is still damp, soft, with a hint of earthy fragrance.
Shen Lang lay on the grass with his face full of face, raised his head, his mouth full of dirt and his face full of grass.
He raised his head and saw the soldier who was stunned in place and Xiao Bai who was sitting upright not far away and stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his paws, and also saw a sneer on Xiao Bai's face, he shuddered, and immediately shouted at the soldier: "Don't chase it yet!
The soldiers knew that Shen Lang and Xiaobai had an extraordinary relationship with their marshal, so they immediately chased them out.
Seeing that the soldiers were gone, Xiao Bai was still licking his claws, which were unusually sharp in the moonlight, Shen Lang had no doubt that this claw was grabbed towards the neck and would inevitably be killed on the spot.
He was quite dissatisfied in his heart, and began to curse Xu Changan secretly: "What kind of person is this, I don't know how to help it trim its nails if you have a pet!"
Xiao Bai seemed to see through his heart, a light flashed, and Shen Lang's face had four more scratches.
Shen Lang covered his face and said with a smile: "Brother Cat, I was wrong, let's play again!"
He cautiously walked to the corner and picked up the dominoes.
Seeing that Xiaobai hesitated, and then walked over, Shen Lang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he silently swore in his heart that in the future, when this cat master fell asleep in his arms, he must find an opportunity to cut his claws.
A man and a cat crouched in the corner, starting the unfinished game.
Under the moonlight and lanterns, the voice of grievance kept coming.
"What I'm saying is true, your card is double zero, mine is double long, I'm really bigger than you!"
"Meow!" followed by a scream.
In the end, Shen Lang looked at the cards in his hand tremblingly and covered his eyes in pain.
"Mine is the Supreme Treasure (the largest). Then he glanced at the dominoes in front of Xiaobai, and finally made up his mind, so he could only say dejectedly: "Okay, yours is Zawu." ”
"Za Wu, it should be bigger than the Supreme Treasure!" Shen Lang said with his face covered.
......
Those ordinary soldiers naturally couldn't catch up with Li Daoyi.
Li Daoyi ran out, there were very few people on the street, and at this time, sleeping and sleeping, beating and fighting.
He always felt uncomfortable, feeling that someone was following him.
It's not that he can't get rid of this person, it's just that he came to Chuijiang to see Xu Changan, and he is confident that no one can hurt him.
He thought about it, took advantage of the night, turned into a purple light, and went out of the city.
Seeing this, the figure in the distance also turned into a long light and chased out.
They went to the north gate, and the gate was the Chuijiang River, where Xu Changan had persuaded many Chuijiang soldiers and strengthened the Yueyang battalion.
At the gate there were several small boats docked to the shore, which were secured with iron cables and stakes.
Since Xu Chang'an defeated the Chuijiang River, the gate of the Chuijiang River has been opened during the day, and people have come and gone every day. Moreover, the flow of people is not even worse than in some commercial towns.
Most people go to find their relatives or come back to find their relatives. So, a few old boatmen who hadn't crossed a boat for more than ten years made a few small boats, brought their grandchildren, and crossed the ferry for people who came and went to find relatives.
At night, the gates were closed, and the boats swayed in the water like duckweeds in prison.
The figure that followed Li Daoyi walked over, stared at it, and saw that the river was sparkling, and several birds took advantage of the night to guard the riverside to prepare tomorrow's food, and the fish couldn't help but occasionally poke their heads out, and those birds saw this, and immediately spread their wings, and the white wings seemed to be crossed by a layer of holy light under the moonlight, and they quickly swept across the river, with a fat river fish in their long beaks, and walked away.
On the mountain near the river, there are some apes crying.
He stared at it, but the figure of the little Taoist priest was gone.
Suddenly feeling something strange behind him, he immediately turned his head away.
I saw that under the moonlight, a little Taoist priest stood by the river, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and his face was full of smiles.
"Han Shitao, the second son of the Han family, the grandmaster went to the realm, and he was destined to be a lonely man, although he had a rich family, he could not enjoy it, and although he had a virtuous wife, he could not last long. ”
The little Taoist priest under the moonlight didn't care about Han Shitao, the old military doctor with a pale face, but softly "Huh".
"Why can't I see through your children's palace, is it your son?" After finishing speaking, he scratched his head and said, "Impossible, am I not cultivating enough to see through?" ”
Han Shitao looked at the little Taoist priest coldly, and he would not be too happy if anyone was exposed. Moreover, this young and gentle little Taoist priest also mentioned his pain.
"You investigated me?"
These five words were almost squeezed out of the old military doctor's teeth, and there was already a little light in the hands he was holding.
"Whoever has the time to investigate you, introduce yourself. ”
As he spoke, Li Daoyi stretched out his hand in the air and said, "My name is Li Daba, a fortune teller who will be famous in the future." ”
The old military doctor Han Shitao ignored him, and a ball of light had formed in his hands behind his back.
This little Taoist priest who suddenly appeared was really weird, not only told his secret at once, but also had a good concealment technique, if he hadn't taken the initiative to come out just now, he might not have been able to discover him as a Sect Master of the Upper Realm.
Han Shitao looked at him, ready to take this somewhat mysterious and weird little Taoist priest by surprise.
"Don't be nervous, you should be able to see my strength, it's just the peak of Huixi, why are you a grandmaster nervous?"
But the more Li Dao said this, the more nervous Han Shitao became.
"Stretch out your hand, I'll help you look at the palmistry, don't want money. ”
Han Shitao snorted coldly and did not speak.
However, he still cautiously stretched out his right hand, and the ball of light in his left hand behind his back became more and more brilliant.
When this "Li Daba" pulled his right hand, he unexpectedly directly slapped the little Taoist priest and took it back for slow interrogation.
Li Daoyi looked at his right hand, saw through his trick, and secretly laughed, he was wondering whether to cooperate with this Upper Realm Grandmaster.
Li Daoyi cleared his throat and said, "Male left, female right, don't you know?"
The old military doctor Han Shitao was stunned for a moment, and then put his right hand back again, wanting to change his left hand and stretch it out.
Li Daoyi looked at his clumsy performance and was a little funny, thought about it, let's cooperate with him, anyway, this person is Xu Changan's close bodyguard, and he should be able to see Xu Changan.
Sure enough, everything was as he expected, the moment he pulled Han Shitao's hand, his right hand suddenly became difficult, and a ball of light smashed on his body.
Li Dao flew upside down in an instant, falling heavily into the water, causing a large splash.
The bird that was about to catch fish was startled and immediately flew into the air with a long cry, and disappeared in an instant, and there were bursts of sad ape cries from the mountains on the shore.
The white splash gradually fell, and a figure floated up.
Han Shitao tapped his toes lightly, skimming the river like a bird, and after a while, he appeared on the shore with a little Taoist priest.
He looked at the unscathed little Taoist priest and frowned, but he didn't think much about it.
The moment he made a move, he didn't see a purple light circulating on Li Daoyi's body.
......
The temporary Marshal's Mansion was brightly lit.
Li Daoyi was wet and slowly woke up.
He sneezed, opened his eyes, and looked at the person in front of him.
In front of him was a child who had a lot of resentment and had just deceived the cat, and he covered his cheeks, which had many scars and bruises on his cheeks, and he had always been taught a lesson by the cat. There was also Han Shitao, who knocked him unconscious with one palm, and behind the two stood a young man.
Dressed in cloth, his skin is so white that all girls are envious, his figure is tall, and he has a faint aura of a superior person.
Of course, what is even more remarkable is that he carries a long sword wrapped in strips of cloth behind him.
Through the hilt of the sword that protrudes from the back, you can see that the red of the sword is as blazing as fire.
Li Daoyi could almost judge that this young man should be the Xu Changan he was looking for.
"What's your name?"
Li Daoyi looked younger than Xu Changan, so Xu Changan asked like a kind big brother.
As soon as Li Dao saw that Xu Changan had a good attitude towards him, he glanced at Han Shitao.
"He knows. ”
Xu Changan turned his gaze to Han Shitao, Han Shitao thought for a while and then said uncertainly: "His name is a little strange, it seems to be called Li Daba." ”
The little Taoist didn't expect this Upper Realm Grandmaster to be so sincere, so he could only hold back a smile with all his might.
There was a sound of "pop", and I saw Shen Lang holding a book and smashing it on the head of the little Taoist. The little Taoist priest wanted to fight back, but found that he was tied to a chair, and the hemp rope that bound him was the thickness of a finger.
The little Taoist struggled for a while, and then hit Shen Lang a few times, and then he said faintly: "Why bother, just seal my cultivation, why is there still hemp rope tied up?"
"Could it be that an Upper Realm Grandmaster, a Peak Knowledge, plus a Demigod Beast, are still afraid that I will slip away?"
Xu Changan also felt that it was too much to tie people up with hemp rope, so he looked at Shen Lang, after all, when he came, Shen Lang had already tied up this little Taoist.
Shen Lang snorted coldly and said to Xu Changan: "This little Taoist priest is very cunning, what did he just say his name?"
Shen Lang tilted his head and thought for a moment, and asked sharply, "You tell me clearly, whose father (uncle) are you?"
As he spoke, he picked up the book in his hand again and slammed it down. Li Dao's neck shrank, and he immediately shouted at Xiaobai: "Brother Cat, you have to help me, this kid lied to you just now, or I helped you, be a ...... man"
He thought about it for a while, and immediately changed his words: "You can't be ungrateful to be a divine beast!"
Before the book hit his head, a cat meow sounded.
Shen Lang's hand holding the book paused in the air, and in just half an hour, Xiaobai's claws left an indelible impression on him.
Shen Lang shook the book for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, I don't remember the Taoist priest, spare you." As he spoke, he glanced at Xiaobai and put down the book.
Xu Changan glanced at the little Taoist priest and ordered, "Untie him from the rope." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiaobai stretched out his claws and grabbed the rope to the ground in the direction of the little Taoist.
Maybe it was because he had been tied up for a long time, and the little Taoist priest loosened his muscles, and then said to Xiaobai: "Thank you Brother Cat, let's play Pai Gow in the future, absolutely no bullying of people and cats, fair and fair." ”
As soon as the words fell, the little Taoist squinted and looked at Shen Lang at the same time as Xiaobai, and Shen Lang shuddered.
On the table, Xiaobai was lying lazily, and Shen Lang was sent by Xu Changan to copy the book.
Only Xu Changan and Li Daoyi were left in the whole room at this time, as well as a cat.
Han Shitao was guarding the door, and the little Taoist priest was sealed by him, and he was not worried about Xu Changan's safety at all.
He looked up, looked at the moon, and sighed leisurely.
He suddenly remembered what the little Taoist priest had just said: "Is it your son or not, how can I not see through your children's palace." ”
Han Shitao had to be moved by this sentence, he could pretend not to hear it before, because he was afraid that the little Taoist priest would see something, after all, most people who claim to be able to break through the sky rely on observing words and emotions to deceive people.
However, the words of the little Taoist priest are like spring rain, which can promote the germination of seeds in his heart.
A seed slowly took root and grew in his heart.
......
"What are you doing here?" Xu Changan said leisurely after taking a sip of tea.
Recently, he has experienced a lot, and he has become more and more mature and stable. Especially recently, when he and Zhao Jin were studying, the two of them sat and drank tea face to face, and then began to talk about various classic battles and analyze one or two.
He and Zhao Jinming are subordinates and superiors on the surface, but in fact, the two are also teachers and friends.
Slowly, he also likes to drink tea and chat, because when drinking tea, he can see a lot of things about a person.
The little Taoist priest also took a sip of tea, sat with a big grin, and kicked his feet long.
"Don't look at me, I won't hurt you, and I'm not some bullshit spies. ”
The little Taoist priest said indifferently.
When it comes to observing words and feelings, he is a master among the masters, but when others come to observe him, he feels a little strange and uneasy.
Xu Changan smiled, the whole person was not upright, he relaxed, and the momentum of the superior person on his body disappeared at this time.
"Did you say you were tired?"
A trace of tiredness appeared on Xu Changan's face, and then he said: "Tired is tired, but ah, there are some things that I don't do when I'm tired, or I die, and some things have to be done." ”
"Peach blossom goods!" the little Taoist priest said for no reason.
"Then what are you doing here? You can't really be attracted by Pai Gow, right?" At the mention of Pai Gow, Xiao Bai's eyes narrowed.
Li Daoyi tidied up the messy clothes and hair bun just now, and he specially pulled his Taoist robe, and said solemnly: "I am a Taoist priest, not an ordinary Taoist priest, I came to you just to complete my master's task fifty years ago." ”
Xu Changan frowned, and immediately said, "Fifty years ago, I was not born yet. ”
He suddenly thought of something, was a little excited, and immediately said, "Could it be that your master knows my father?"
The little Taoist priest nodded and said, "My master knows your father, but your father doesn't know if he ignores my dead ghost master, and the token that my master gave to your father was given away." ”
As he spoke, he popped up a copper coin with a small Xu character on it.
Xu Changan naturally couldn't believe him through a copper coin with the word "Xu", after all, there are so many people surnamed Xu in the world.
"What does this represent?" Xu Changan said coldly.
The little Taoist priest scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "This really doesn't mean anything, but my master didn't give me anything else." He just asked me to come to Xu Ningqing and a person surnamed Xuanyuan and ask me to give them a piece of creation. ”
As he spoke, he took a bird's leg from his bosom and said, "No, this is it, Birch's foot." Birch has two feet, one foot represents stepping in the past, and the other foot exploring the future. ”
When he took out the Birch foot, Xiaobai's eyes were straight, and he was almost bleeding out of his son.
"After using it, I can dream and see the past and the future. ”
"This left foot can see the past, I have already given it away, this right script is intended for Xu Ningqing, but it can be the same for the descendants of the Xu family. ”
Xu Changan hesitated, while Xiaobai pounced.
It's a pity that Xiaobai's legs kept fluttering in the air, and it was lifted by Xu Changan to the back of the neck of fate (people who have cats know to mention cats like this, hahaha).
The little Taoist priest looked at Xu Changan's hesitant expression, and immediately said: "This doesn't require you to do anything, you are not strong enough, you must not see too many things, you just need to put this Birch foot on your chest and sleep, maybe you can see your father in the future!"
Li Daoyi's last sentence hit Xu Changan.
"I'm waiting outside the door, anyway, my cultivation is sealed, and there is a grandmaster at the door, you won't worry about me playing tricks, right?"
With that, he put Birch's feet on the table and walked out.
Xiaobai glanced at Xu Changan and ran out of the house.
When I got out of the house, I saw Xu Changan sitting on a chair, sleeping deeply, a bird's foot on his chest kept spinning, emitting a faint blue light.
Before Han Shitao could stop it, he saw the little Taoist standing in front of him.
"You don't believe me, you have to believe him, right?" he said, taking out a jade pendant and swaying it non-stop.
Han Shitao stopped and looked at the little Taoist priest deadly.
Because he felt the breath of the Holy Emperor on that jade pendant!
......
This is a great wall, and he separates the outside of the fortress from the Central Plains.
It has stood in the wind and rain for hundreds of years, defending countless people.
The wind blew slightly, and the sky and the earth were desolate, and the blood and water on the ground merged into a stream, and all kinds of monsters poured over in the distance.
Countless people in armor stood on top of the city wall, spears in their hands, looking at the foot of the wall.
One by one, the monsters stopped at the foot of the Great Wall, their eyes red and they kept roaring.
The person standing on the Great Wall turned his head, with nostalgia and reluctance in his eyes, but it quickly became resolute!
They had bloody faces and spears. At this time, a middle-aged man walked over.
He gave Xu Changan a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't see his face.
"Today, the country is in trouble, as the Son of Heaven, I must lead by example!"
So saying, he jumped down with his spear in hand. Seeing this, countless soldiers also jumped down!
......
As soon as the picture turned, I saw a gap in a familiar city.
A man in white with a sword in hand stepped into the gap.
"Chang'an, you can be disappointed in anyone, even in the world, but you can't be disappointed in yourself. ”
"Everything in the future depends on you. ”
With that, he stepped into the gap. Xu Chang'an's heart ached suddenly, as if something precious had disappeared, he stretched out his hand and roared hard, but to no avail.
Suddenly, he saw the man in white half-kneeling on the ground, his head bowed, and his face looked down.
He was covered in blood, his back to him, holding the sword, and the blood flowed down the sword from his wrist, and finally fell to the ground through the tip of the sword.
Xu Changan's heart was very distressed, and he really wanted to see the face of the man in white clearly.
He tried to run forward, but he couldn't see it.
Suddenly, a golden claw fell from the sky and grabbed the man in white!
Xu Changan woke up suddenly, his throat was sweet, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.
With a "snap", one paw fell to the ground, Xu Changan wiped the sweat from the corners of his mouth and face, and the words of the man in white kept surround his mind.
"Chang'an, you can be disappointed in anyone, even in the world, but you can't be disappointed in yourself. ”
He sighed, not knowing what that meant.
When I looked down at my feet, I saw that there was a crack in Birch's foot!
............................................................................................................
The name of this chapter is a bit big, but these two chapters explain some foreshadowing and bury some things.
It will not be until the later volumes that I really understand the importance of these chapters.
