Chapter 708: The Dragon Gives Birth to Nine Sons
Welcome Taoist priest strode in, Taoist temple door is a large hall for the statue of the gods, through the main hall to a courtyard, here is the place to welcome guests, there is a living room, the left and right two rows of side rooms can also be used for pilgrims to stay.
The welcome Taoist priest does not stay, quickly walk in, the courtyard is gradually more and more houses behind, here is the living area of the Taoist priest, close to the back of a courtyard is a little different, it is relatively closed, almost no one usually approaches, there is a three-story wooden building built in the courtyard, the architectural style is more unique, different from the quiet and elegant of other buildings, this wooden building is more majestic and solemn.
At this time, there was an old Taoist, standing in front of a half-open window on the third floor, looking at the person at the door of the Taoist temple in the distance, and the fingers of his right hand quickly calculated.
There was still a person standing not far away, it was Liu Zhan.
But at this time, Liu Zhan was silent, he could only stand and look at Lao Dao, waiting quietly.
After a moment, I heard this old man exhale lightly and shook his head.
"The king is full of breath and rent, and there is no illness. ”
His face and body are all old and mediocre, but those eyes are still shining at this time, as if they have turned on the light to the clay statue, and the eye waves can make people dare not look directly.
In fact, this is not an exaggeration.
As Liu Zhan's elder and fellow uncle, the best thing about this old Taoist is his eyes, he has talent, and he has acquired cultivation, so that his eyes can see more accurately and clearly, and many things may be confused in the eyes of other Taoists, and there is nothing to hide under the gaze of his eyes.
Liu Zhan didn't dare to look at each other for a long time, and when he saw the old Taoist shaking his head and saying this, he immediately believed it, and at the same time was a little disappointed.
"The acting king is not sick, and the previous rumors are all false?"
But in addition to being disappointed, he must also admit that he is also relieved.
"It's good that the Yin Guan faction did not have a bad relationship with the acting king, even if the acting king has no disadvantage, it is not a bad thing for the Yin Guan faction. ”
Although with the friendship between the Yin Guan faction and the acting king, if they can't take the opportunity to get closer to each other, the other party will be on the throne, and the Yin Guan faction will not get benefits.
Thinking of this, Liu Zhan made up his mind more and more, this time the acting king came to the door, he must contact the relationship well, and be sure to let the acting king have more good feelings towards the Yin Guan faction.
"Uncle Shi, the junior will go to entertain the acting king first. Liu Zhan bowed to the old way and said.
Lao Dao half-squinted, and his skin and flesh were slightly drooping on his old face, and there was no expression, only hummed: "Go ahead." ”
Liu Zhan went downstairs alone and sighed secretly.
"Uncle Shi can be described as a genius. ”
Shi Lingxiu was born in troubled times, lost his parents since he was a child, tasted the hardships of the world, longed to become an immortal in his childhood, worshiped the Yin Guan School at the age of thirteen, and cultivated successfully at the fifteenth.
Later, he moved to various places, which lasted seven years, made great achievements for the Yin Guan faction, and cultivated for another six years, and both the meritorious and Taoist karma reached the peak.
But the head of the sect did not choose Shi Lingxiu, so he had no chance, let alone a title.
What's even more unfortunate is that Shi Lingxiu has been at a low ebb all his life, and it is difficult to break through the trap even if he cultivates hard, but now Lingxi is revived, but it has nothing to do with him.
Liu Zhan asked himself, if he was in Shi Lingxiu's position, he was afraid that he would also be resentful.
But there is also time, and there is only one fate.
No one can be the master of the day.
When I got out of the courtyard, I saw the pick-up person waiting anxiously, because this is half a forbidden place, and the idle people can't easily enter, so no matter how anxious the heart is, the pick-up person can only wait at the door.
Seeing Liu Zhan coming out, the person who picked up the guest was busy saying, "Real person, the acting king has arrived!"
Liu Zhan had already seen it just now, nodded very calmly, and ordered: "You ask someone to prepare more fruit points, and then let people move some round stools, at least forty people, and send them to the front yard quickly." ”
This is for those government soldiers.
"Yes, real people. The Taoist answered, and hurriedly ran to prepare.
With such a mixture of excitement and nervousness, when Liu Zhan walked out, he saw it on several faces, which showed that not only him, but also the juniors were a little excited about the arrival of a prince with the strength to compete for succession.
When the meteor came out, the acting king and his party had already been invited to the outer courtyard behind the main hall, after all, you can't really let the dignified prince wait at the gate, right?
The outer courtyard has already prepared a place to welcome guests, and the Taoist boys who are guarding here are not very flustered, even if they are a little nervous, they are very appropriate to invite people into the hall.
When Liu Zhan arrived, Dao Tong was serving tea to Su Ziji in the hall, and there were more than 30 people standing outside the courtyard, all of them looking strong, Liu Zhan passed by, and he could clearly feel that many people were looking at him.
Why didn't he look at it?
His gaze swept over these government soldiers wearing uniforms, and the aura of the rivers and lakes on these people made Liu Zhan's heart suddenly.
"Could it be that these people are all newly recruited from the rivers and lakes yesterday? The acting king actually accepted them all and filled them into the government soldiers?"
That's it, he brought all of them out on today's trip, and with his eyesight, he could see that none of these soldiers present were old people, all of them were newcomers!
The acting king trusts these Jianghu guests so much, so relieved?
This kind of thing is really strange to think about, Liu Zhan feels that he really can't understand what he thinks about the acting king.
As he thought so, he had entered the hall and saw a man looking at the painting on the wall with his back to him, and only turned back when he heard footsteps.
Liu Zhan saluted him: "Liu Zhan greeted the late arrival, and asked the king to forgive his sins." ”
"Lonely has just arrived. Su Ziji smiled.
Dao Tong also hurriedly came over to serve tea to the two, one was in the main seat, the other was in the lower head, and a young man stood beside Su Ziji, his expression was flat and serious, and he was very loyal and guarding.
Liu Zhan took a quick look and knew that the person who entered the hall to protect the acting king was the first place in yesterday's martial arts competition, Bo Yan.
From where Su Ziji is sitting now, you can see the wooden door opened, and more than 30 Xinfu soldiers have also been given tea and fruit snacks by Taoist priests.
Su Ziji looked at it with a biased face, smiled indifferently, pointed to the painting and said, "This is the Nine Dragons map?"
"The king, this is the dragon species map, there are nine in total, the prison cow, the eye, the mocking wind, the Pu prison, the fox, the tyrant, the relentless, the relentless, the negative scum, the kiss, each has a god and a supernatural, it is the work of Wu Boyu in the previous dynasty. ”
"It turned out to be the work of Wu Boyu. ”
Su Ziji knew it in his heart, paced and admired, saw that it was antique, with dense seals, and knew that this was his previous sexual favorite painting, so Liu Zhan specially found it to please, looked at the painting very carefully, sighed, and said: "In "Changle Wen", in the fourth year of Xianning, Wu Boyu entered Beijing, bought wine and drank alone, and painted to pay for it, in fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to become famous, and enter the eyes of the king of Qi at that time, in order to cheer up the society. ”
"It's a pity that the former Wei Dynasty has gone at that time, and it is difficult to have Bole, Wu Boyu has worked hard and can only be in vain. ”
Liu Zhan secretly admired, the acting king deserved to be the champion, he had a classical history, and he also knew such obscure things, so he wanted to speak, and when he saw Su Ziji, he turned his face and asked.
"Since ancient times, they have all been sons and fathers, and since they are dragon species, why are these nine not like dragons?"
