Chapter 513: The night is gone, and the sun is shining
The bonfire shook, and a few sparks that crackled and bounced rose into the air along the heat wave, and when she heard her son's words, the woman was stunned, and then her face showed surprise, and she walked over quickly and squatted beside Chen Jing.
"Jing'er, you...... You said...... Is it true?"
Crackle crackle.
The dead branch made a crisp sound, Chen Jing looked at the flame with concentration, a branch in his hand snapped off, and nodded: "That time I returned to Tianzhi to raise troops to restore the country, and when I met Lu Liangsheng, the master stopped the other party after breaking it in order to let me escape......
Speaking of the events of that day, the branch that he had broken in his hand was broken into four pieces again," ...... But just now, what happened outside, I saw Master and him...... He turned into a corpse demon, and he also fought with Lu Liangsheng and was captured. ”
"Then why don't you save your master!!" Zhang Lihua pinched the corner of her clothes, and her voice couldn't help but be a little louder.
"Your master is running around for your throne and for Chen Guo, and you just watched him being captured by Lu Liangsheng?!"
Over there, Chen Jing raised his hand, pinched the edge of his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, lowered his face, buried it between his knees, and shook it with difficulty: "Mother...... Master is dead, he's become a corpse demon, he's not human anymore......"
The words paused here for a moment, and his voice was hoarse: "..... Lu Liangsheng's cultivation is profound...... I...... If you can't beat him, it's impossible to save the master in his hands. ”
With a few snaps, four branches were thrown on the ground, Chen Jing got up with red eyes, glanced at his mother, walked to the temple gate with his sword, and let out a loud roar of "ah-", raised his foot and kicked the crooked temple gate out, falling outside and falling apart.
"What should I do......"
In the trembling voice, it was difficult to squeeze out his lips, Lu Liangsheng and he knew him very early, when he was young, he was rescued by the other party, so that he could have now, and later the death of his father was also related to him, but it was a little complicated, not to mention that his father was at fault first, and then asked the other party to come out of the mountain several times, and he had the idea of apprenticeship in his heart, but it was not realized after all.
Even so, Chen Jing has always respected Mr. Lu in his heart, regardless of his status as a national teacher, but now that the master's death and then the demon being accepted, he has an indescribable entanglement in his heart.
"Jing'er ......"
The woman in the temple stepped forward cautiously, it was the first time she saw her son, who had always been gentle and elegant, so she reached out and stroked Chen Jing's back a few times, and said in a low voice: "...... Don't be angry, don't take revenge, I just said that because my mother was anxious, don't go to your heart, since you can't beat it, our mother and sister will stay away. ”
"Mother, Lu Liangsheng never thought of making trouble for me at all. ”
Chen Jing turned his face sideways, and a smile appeared on the side face where the fire was gone, with a wry smile: "Just now, he already saw his son, but he didn't mean to do anything...... I'm even interested in letting the other party do it...... None of them. ”
"Which ......"
Without waiting for the woman to speak, Chen Jing patted the back of her hand, "Mother, let's go, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and I won't rush to Chang'an City to trouble him, and when I succeed in my studies, I will learn all the secret techniques of Taoism left to me by my master, and then come to Chang'an to try my luck......"
Look at the campfire.
"At that time, even if he loses the enemy, he will be able to retreat with his whole body, and as for the return to the country, his son no longer dares to hope for it. ”
The night was deep, the mother and son in the temple talked a little, leaned against each other comfortingly, remembering some pictures of the Chen Dynasty in the past, the atmosphere was slightly better.
Soon, the clouds in the east lit up the white belly of the fish, and the golden light pierced the clouds and shone out, pushing the darkness that shrouded the world and the earth to push away quickly, and in the temple that spread, the bonfire was extinguished, and the green smoke curled, and the mother and son in the temple carried the burden on their backs, and left with the morning light and went elsewhere.
The golden light spread, pushing through the majestic and ancient city walls, and the streets and alleys were bustling and noisy, and the men who got up early to work bare-chested and squatted on the side of the street to talk to their companions about what happened last night, and the women who fetched water and bought vegetables gathered around the well, and they were also talking about yesterday's rumors, and some people even saw it with their own eyes, saying that it was called a man with a nose and eyes.
"You don't know that a group of people who are oppressed by the black will bite other people when they catch them, so that people are afraid. ”
"Ouch..... Isn't that a youkai?"
"What kind of monsters, you didn't listen to the official officials, those are all cults, and their heads are not bright. ”
"I think too, where are so many youkai running into the city. ”
"That's right, that's right, how will the government deal with this matter later?"
“...... The ghost knows, anyway, the people who participated in it still have servants to interrogate, but it seems to have returned the money, don't you think it's strange?"
"What's so strange, after all, people die, and it is also appropriate to give some compensation. ”
In the chattering market conversation, the sun shines through the hibiscus pool, the sparkling surface of the lake, and a flock of wild ducks comb their wings and neigh twice.
On the raised terrain opposite, the light and strong people in the Taoist temple carry the burden, carry the stone, repair the floor tiles, and dump the wooden building.
The warm morning sun swept away the haze of the night, and the Taoist temple was in full swing.
The Taoist holds the tea cup in one hand, forks the other hand on his waist, takes a sip of tea, and directs the light and strong people who come up to put the stone and wood in the designated place and pile them up.
"Sure enough, it's cool to be an official......
Immediately, I thought of the contents of the books that made my scalp tingle, and quickly threw this thought out of my mind, 'How can this Tao be a cultivator, how can it be greedy for worldly power...... Unlike some people. ’
Sun Yingxian held the tea cup, took a sip of hot tea, squinted his eyes comfortably, and looked back at the attic behind him.
But it's also good to be around someone and enjoy the wealth. ’
Over there, the attic of several floors stood, the sun shone into the open window lattice, the light and dust were flying, and on the purple wood bed, Lu Liangsheng opened his eyes slightly, felt a little pain, and woke up covering his forehead.
Hiss~~~
The body was heavy and a little sober, and I saw Qi You's limbs wrapping around his body and falling asleep, stuffing the wooden pillow into the movement in her arms, holding the pillow and rubbing his pretty face on it.
When Lu Liangsheng sat down on the edge of the bed, put on his shoes, and stretched his waist, he looked at the desk, where the toad Daoist had several bandages wrapped around his head, hanging a frog flipper, and the other webbed was holding his chin, sitting on the book and basking in the sun.
Feeling the movement, he opened his slightly swollen toad eyes and narrowed into a slit, Lu Liangsheng looked at him and was stunned for a moment, didn't he beat himself, why did the master become like this?
The scholar straightened his sleeves, sat down at the table, and spoke tentatively.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"Hmph....." The toad Taoist hung the frog flippers, glanced at the apprentice, snorted, and turned his face away: "Not much." ”
Lu Liangsheng was stunned, and the master's reaction made him even more confused, so that he could not accidentally injure the master after he fell into a coma?
It shouldn't be like that......
Thinking silently, the toad Taoist over there didn't hear the apprentice's words of concern for a while, and hurriedly turned around again.
"You should continue to ask as a teacher!"
"Uh...... Didn't you say it was okay, Master?!"
Hearing this, the toad almost stood up excitedly, and raised the hanging frog flipper slightly, "Do you think the teacher looks fine?"
The scholar looked at the excited master in front of him with a smile, and quickly picked up his words and asked:
"Then what's the matter with Master's injury?"
The room was quiet, and in the sound of the woman grinding her teeth on the couch, the toad Taoist took a breath, stretched out his two little short legs, sat back down, hummed, and glanced at the bed.
"Not the old dryad yet...... As a teacher, it didn't make you sober up, but as a result, I beat the old man!!"
