Jingle Bell –

The copper bell echoed in the mountain twilight, and the reddish glow shone on the broken peak, Lu Liangsheng led the old donkey to raise his head and look at the flattened mountain in the distance.

It was two years ago that Wujiang Mountain fought with Lu Yuan, a sword was sharpened, and speckled moss had climbed up in a few zhang, listening to the chatter of Hong Lian and Qi Yu in the bookshelf, Lu Liangsheng called down the goshawk flying overhead, the latter flapped his wings and lowered, turning into a boy dangling wide cuffs and running happily.

"Master, what do you call Qingfeng for?"

Lu Liangsheng stroked his hair on the top of his head, and asked as he continued to walk:

"What kind of monster is the one who occupies the colorless village?"

"It's three weird guys, and they're not low. Qingfeng raised his little face, folded his fingers and counted them: "One is strong and tall, with a full beard, like a tiger, and the other two are tall and thin, one with a long beard and a goatee......"

Listening to the little boy's description, Lu Liangsheng turned his face sideways, with doubts in his eyes, how did he sound the description, how could these three monsters be so familiar?

I have seen the boy around me, my eyes can't help but look at the faintly visible building in front of me, soon, a mossy bluestone steps meander down, this side has been under a sake, stepping on it wet, with the close to the mountain gate, under the perception of the divine realm, in the Taoist temple, the three demonic qi familiar came, as well as the sound of squirming and talking.

“...... What the eldest brother said is that the three of my brothers have settled here, and they can't go anywhere when they come up for cultivation!"

"I just don't know, where did that little doll move to save the soldiers, if it was a person who cultivated to a high level, wouldn't my three brothers be"

"Cultivation is profound, can you be as tall as the scholar last night?"

A circle of strong men with thick beards rested their bodies, got up and waved their rough hands heroically, and looked at the two brothers with majestic eyes.

“...... In fact, the three of my brothers work together, and it's not that they can't fight Gongsun Fang, if they don't lose their cultivation, they can still fight with that scholar......"

Jingle bell ~~~

While speaking, a copper bell shook softly from outside the mountain gate not far away, and when the two demons sitting under the eaves turned their heads, the big man who was still talking stopped when he said the word 'war', raised his voice to the opposite side, and waved his palm: "Look at me, the words are not finished yet, you see what you are doing over there!"

Seeing that the two demons didn't react, they slowly turned their faces along their lines, the expression on their faces suddenly froze, and the one who walked up the stone steps outside the mountain gate was a scholar holding an old donkey, standing there with a smile and a white robe.

There was also a boy with a bun next to him, pointing over: "Master, it's the three of them who bullied me and robbed the five-color village!"

As soon as the villain's words fell, he listened to the bangbang..... Three knees hitting the ground in quick succession.

The three demons standing under the eaves, one after another, fell short, knelt on the ground, skillfully raised their hands and put them on the top of their heads, and the strong man led by changed his fierce expression and squeezed out a smile.

"Daisen!"

The deer demon hurriedly whispered two words: "Spare ...... life"

It's really the three of them...... The human form has changed, and the tone has not changed.

Lu Liangsheng came all the way, thinking about how the monsters who forcibly occupied the five-color village were so familiar, and now that he saw these three demons, he didn't know whether to laugh or continue to be cold.

Over there, the tiger, the deer, and the sheep three demons lowered their heads as if they felt something, raised their faces slightly, and the sunset reflected the shadows of the people and spread over, covering their vision, and they couldn't see each other's expressions clearly in the shadows, and the sheep was too frightened to speak, and stabbed the tiger demon in the middle with his elbow, the latter had always been bold and asked in a low voice.

"Why is Daxian here?"

Asking this sentence, Yu Guang glanced at the boy holding his little hand over there, and wanted to slap his mouth, so he hurriedly hugged his fist, full of anger.

"It turns out that this is the Great Immortal Mansion, and the three of us saw that the little boy was weak, and we were afraid that we would not be able to defend the Immortal Mansion, so we simply volunteered...... If you look at the inner Dharma Realm, we haven't touched it, we're just guarding the outside. ”

"You can't touch it. Qingfeng crossed her waist and glared at them fiercely.

Lu Liangsheng raised his hand and pressed the words behind Qingfeng, looked at the surrounding buildings, the Taoist temple attic that was destroyed in the first war had almost been repaired, and now it looked like it had a few more flavors, waved the sleeves of his robe, and spoke softly with the three demons behind his back.

"I'm not a great immortal, nor am I a master, but Lu Liangsheng, the national teacher of the Great Sui, and I haven't harmed anyone, I believe you, forcibly occupying this place is the beast's nature has not changed, but it can't be so simple to let your three demons leave......"

When the three demons of the tiger, deer, and sheep heard this, they glanced at each other, and without waiting for the scholar to finish speaking, they hurriedly kowtowed: "Xie Guoshi, my three brothers are willing to be punished, so it is better to punish us to leave the Sui Kingdom, escape to other places, and never set foot in Middle Earth." ”

chattering and disturbing the conversation, regardless of whether the scholar on the other side nodded or not, got up and turned around and ran, on the bookshelf on the side of the donkey's buttocks, the small door opened, the toad Taoist poked out his face, and the three demons who came over felt the familiar demonic aura, "Ah-" A scream, stumbling towards the mountain gate, and running farther and farther away in the sunset.

The glow shone through the mountain gate and pulled out the shadow and cast it on the ground, and Qingfeng looked at the figure with only three small black dots left on his tiptoes.

"Master, just let them go?"

Lu Liangsheng took his hands over to the old donkey, put the master at the small door on the ground, turned around and walked to the nearest attic, his fingertips tapped in the air, and there was a circle of ripples in the air.

"Qingfeng, the world is unfair, it is not necessary to cut it down, splash blood, I remember one year through the land of Sichuan and Shu, met a Langzhong, unjustly died in prison, but what I thought of was to treat the patient first.

For example, there was a captain who fell into the water and died drinking with others, and he did not want to be angry with the drinker, but he still crossed the river day after day......"

The ripples spread, feeling the familiar mana on the scholar's body, the mana maintained by the enchantment around the attic, Lu Liangsheng put down his hand behind him, stepped up the steps, and the door on the opposite side quietly opened inward, revealing the furnishings inside.

Qingfeng tilted his head behind him: "Master..... Did that Lang Zhong finally take revenge?"

"Reported. ”

Lu Liangsheng stood in front of the threshold, raised his face to look at the big characters written on the door plaque above, and said softly: "I reported for the teacher." ”

The sunset shines out of the western clouds, a remnant of red, soaked through the clouds, across the junction of Shu and Di, a certain county seat, the wet eaves are ticking and intertwined with rain curtains.

On the long street with a bluestone floor, the door was open, the lights in the room were gently flickering, and the man with a towel refused the copper coin handed by an old man, and handed the written prescription to his wife beside him.

The lights are warm and warm.

.......

"There are gains and losses, if he takes revenge on the day and calms his grievances, there will be no other life. ”

Lu Liangsheng walked into the attic, swept away the dust left on the tables and chairs with a wave of his sleeves, saw the bookshelves full of books, stacked bamboo slips, smiled, and took out a scroll at random to read.

The mouth also continued: "....... Maybe what the teacher said is not all right, but many things in the world, in fact, have different 'chopping' to solve, the way of the way, can not let the killing and revenge blind the Taoist heart, can be beheaded, can also be cut with a sharp blade, Confucianism has to convince people with reason, but for the teacher's reason, can be soft or hard, for the demons who still have good intentions, do not have to kill them all, God let them exist, it is reasonable. ”

Rolling up the bamboo slips, Lu Liangsheng saw the little man standing aside in ignorance, and took the bamboo slips with a smile and tapped it on his head.

"It's okay to be different, in the future, if you go to the world with me, you will naturally understand. ”

"Oh. ”

The ignorant boy covered his sore head and answered, the glow outside spread and slanted the shadow of the person, and the eight big men put down the cauldron, and under the command of the toad Taoist with the forked waist, they raised the bonfire and cooked the food.

The sunset gradually sets on the mountain, the last ray of glow shoots away the white clouds, under this sky, there are countless uneven things between people, the ridge of the field is fighting for the ditch farmers shouting and screaming to spray, after a while, and reconciled as before sitting outside the village Hukan to hear what they heard, the distant city, chasing and playing children cried, the old holding the carved wooden ox hesitated, or returned the toy to each other.

On the dirt road at the foot of the mountain in the distance, the old monk who had lost his arm sat weakly on the side of the road, and the passing caravan kindly took him.

Along this mountain road to the Western Regions, on the White Tiger Ridge, the red fox who returned to the mountain held a corpse bone, gently put it on the stone chair in the cave, knelt down and kowtowed to her three times, and also went to the past kindness, turned away, and looked for his own cultivation in the future.

In the vast sea of sand, the sun has not yet fallen, and the demon king, who is dressed in a big body, sits in the gravel, watching the vast sand and dust blowing by, and thinks of the past master.

Whew—

The wolf's voice rang out in the desert.

To the east, leaving the three figures of the boundless mountain, looking back at the mountain with only a trace of outline, as well as the surrounding mountains, decided to go to the west first, thinking of the words of the master, I felt that the word 'national teacher' sounded majestic, and the magic power was not enough, and it could probably scare people.

...... Perhaps, it is also good to get the title of a national teacher.

Chang'an of the Sui State.

In the night, the lights of thousands of homes were raised, compared with the bustling and lively night market, in the imperial city, the emperor threw the fold in his hand to the ground after reading it, swept it away with one hand, and knocked over the lamp holder on the table.

"I want to fulfill the last wish of the first emperor, why should Yang Su stop me! This can't work, that can't work, don't you just rely on your own great credit?! I'm so angry!!"

Yang Guang waved his palm and smashed the tabletop, frightening the palace maids and eunuchs waiting around him and didn't dare to come out, and for a moment, the emperor who was walking back and forth with his hands stopped.

"Didn't you just bully me when I was young, not as dazzling as the first emperor? ”

The words paused, and the face illuminated by the lights turned to the eunuch who was waiting on the side of the dragon case, "Since this is the case, then I will drive the expedition in person and show prestige!"

The tone was categorical, and word by word echoed in the empty hall.

"Just Tugu Hun -"
