"Master, Master. ”

Daoist Yunyang and Lin Quanwu walked in front of him, and suddenly Li Chao ran over happily with a water bag, handed the water bag to the master, and said with a smile: "Master, you have been trekking all the way hard, drink saliva to relieve sweat." ”

Daoist Yunyang took the water bag, touched Li Ming's head, and praised: "Bastard is becoming more and more sensible, you don't have to worry about anything for the teacher, hehe." ”

As he spoke, he pulled the cork and took a long sip.

"Hmm...... This water is very sweet, where did you get it?" Yunyang Dao Chang drank the clear water, his tired face flashed with a refreshing flush, he handed the water bag to Li Ming, and couldn't help asking.

Watching the master drink all the clean water he had brought in, Li Chao smiled. He held his head high and said with a smug smile: "When I passed by the high mountain behind me, I found a secluded pool among the trees, and I took some of it to honor your old man." ”

Daoist Yunyang wiped his wet beard, squinted his eyes and smiled kindly, and said, "Haha...... But the bastard has a heart......"

After receiving the master's praise, Li Chao returned to the rear proudly.

Lin Quan, who was walking on the side, looked a little strange at the moment, he glanced at Daoist Yunyang, and then glanced at the disciples behind him, but found that he had also been walking for a long time, but none of the so many disciples came to deliver water. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head again and again.

"Lin Zhangjiao, what are you thinking?" Seeing Lin Quan's absent-minded and strange look, Daoist Yunyang couldn't help but ask.

Lin Quan broke his thoughts, shook his head slightly, looked at Yunyang Daoist Zhengse and said, "You have accepted a good apprentice." ”

Daoist Yunyang smiled slightly, nodded thoughtfully, and immediately glanced at the apprentice who was walking behind him alone, stroked his beard and said: "Bastard has no father and mother since he was a child, our master and apprentice depend on each other, it is better to say that it is a master and apprentice than a father and son......" As he spoke, his cloudy eyes slowly looked at the sky in the distance.

"Father and son......" Lin Quan was stunned, and he hugged his fist towards Yunyang Dao Chief, and said strangely: "Even so, you do have some similarities. ”

This did not make it clear, he said two words less, that is, the word temperament. is really a lot of incidents along the way, all provoked by the master and apprentice, how can it not be helpless.

Yunyang Dao Chang naturally heard the meaning of someone's words, and after a moment, he withdrew his gaze, withdrew his sleeve robe with both hands, and stood with his hands in his hands: "Wouldn't it be better to meet casually?"

Casual encounter, Lin Quan frowned, and muttered silently in his mouth. Causing trouble, I don't know the severity, is this a casual encounter? And it's counted, but the character is not born, it's nurture. Wouldn't it hurt him in the coming day to let his apprentice act so wantonly and indulge him?

Lin Quan didn't care about this, shook his head and said, "Forgive Lin for his shallow knowledge, so I don't dare to agree with this. ”

Yunyang Dao Changwu looked into the distance, his expression flickering inexplicably. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Sex is not a matter of course, and my heart is depressed." Instead of painting the land to limit yourself, why not live a chic and leisurely life. ”

"Sexual ......" Lin Quan looked at Daoist Yunyang with a complicated expression, and silently recalled his words in his mouth. And he also sighed to himself in his heart: which one is him, the unruly and arrogant philistine, the unruly and indifferent master......

As everyone walked out of one high mountain after another, it was already eight hundred miles away from Fenyang Town at this time. After crossing the wilderness and mountains, the rest of the road is slightly smoother, with less mountains and forests and more extensive dirt roads.

And about 200 miles to the south through this dirt road, it is the boundary of Yongcheng.

Passing through the dirt road, many pedestrians in different clothes on the road are hurrying away or coming slowly. Li Mian looked at the passers-by on both sides of the wide dirt road, full of curiosity. He was curious about the difference between the people outside Fenyang Town and the towns.

Looking ahead, beside the spacious dirt road, under a dead old locust tree sat a richly dressed middle-aged man, this man was slightly fat, wearing a square hat, and carrying a wooden basket behind his back, resting under the tree at the moment.

Li Chao walked forward with the crowd, and happened to come to the middle-aged man's side. He slowly stopped and stared intently at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was wiping the sweat from his forehead, and for a moment, he noticed the little Taoist priest beside him, and couldn't help but wonder: "Little Taoist, why are you staring at me like this." ”

"Uncle is from a rich family?" Li asked shyly, scratching his bun.

"Sort of. The middle-aged man was slightly stunned, pondered for a long time, and then nodded.

"Why did the uncle travel alone?" Li Chao said curiously.

Growing up in Fenyang Town, Li Tan has seen many rich and noble families, and when he goes out, he is not carried by a sedan chair and carried by four bamboo chairs. It is separated by three alleys, and two steps of movement have to be supported by others. When I first came to the town this time, I saw that the rich businessman Jia was alone and was not afraid of hardships and treks, so he was very curious.

"Naturally, he is a person who walks in business, and the words of the Taoist chief made Shen a little confused. The middle-aged man was a little confused by Li Ming's inexplicable interrogation, and he slightly fiddled with the jade wrench between his fingers.

There is another name for a business business, a foot merchant. It is also walking between villages and towns, buying and selling collected objects in exchange for money.

Li Chao suddenly bowed his head, leaned less, and said apologetically: "I see, Poor Dao is just curious about why the uncle is quite rich, but he is unwilling to hire a footman, so wouldn't it save his energy." ”

The middle-aged man laughed, and he stroked the bulging general's belly, and said: "The little Taoist is funny, who is not a human being, can walk on two legs, why not." Empty has two legs, but empty and useless, you are talking about stupidity, not wealth. ”

Li Ming's expression was bright, he nodded his head, gave a thumbs up and praised: "Uncle is really extraordinary." ”

"Hehe......" The middle-aged man squinted, shook the fat on his cheeks slightly, and then said warmly: "Xiaodao Chang is very interested in Shen's appetite, why don't you go with me, and discuss more." ”

Li Mingben wanted to agree, but then he remembered the master and the others, and couldn't help but look at the team that was getting farther and farther in the distance, and then shook his head again and again.

The middle-aged man followed Li Ming's gaze and looked into the distance, and said with a relieved expression: "Since it is inconvenient for the little Taoist to talk for a long time, Shen is not reluctant, go quickly, you won't be able to catch up later." ”

Li Chao scratched his bun, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and he was about to leave, when his eyes suddenly lit up......

The sun sets, and the night is approaching.

Meishan, the last mountain forest that sits and lies on the side of the official road. At this time, in an abandoned land temple halfway up the mountainside, the Pear Flower Sword Sect lit a fire here, preparing to repair it overnight, and they could arrive in Yongcheng tomorrow.

By the fire, everyone ate dry food and rested for warmth. And the original team of twelve people has one more person at the moment, a middle-aged man dressed luxuriously.

This person was the middle-aged man Li Chao met in the afternoon, and before he left, he had a whim and invited the middle-aged man to the itinerary.

The middle-aged man's surname is Shen Ming, and according to him, he is a foot merchant who went to Yongcheng from Linyang Town. This trip to Yongcheng was to buy antique collections acquired by resale.

Lin Quan talked with him and was not interested, and went to a distant place to warm up and rest, but the master and apprentice talked very happily with Shen Quangui, and they were very compatible.

So, the three of them sat on the ground by the fire, laughing and laughing......

"A few days ago, I heard that the people in the rivers and lakes had discovered the treasure of martial arts, and they wanted to gather in Yongcheng to see the treasure of the immortals, but I don't know if it's true or not. But this time, Yongcheng is going to gather from all over the world, and I will bring the treasured antiquities, and I can't say that I will be able to make a lot of money. Shen Quangui sat by the fire and shared the purpose of the trip with the head of Yunyang Dao.

Li Chao was not interested in this, but he was very curious about the wooden basket that Shen Quangui had been carrying.

Daoist Yunyang was a little interested in the interesting things of Da'anguo, and the two chatted while drinking. And the treasure of the immortal family mentioned by Shen Quangui, Lin Quan also said that it is still in Yundang Mountain, it is a stone tablet, as for the true face, there is no way to know. He didn't care about this and said: "Where is there any immortal treasure, it's just to deceive others." ”

Shen Quangui nodded slightly, and said with a little surprise: "I thought that the Taoist chief worshiped the three Qing gods to cultivate qi and cultivate the body, and I was convinced of the immortals, but I never thought that the Taoist chief would not be like this." ”

Yunyang Dao Chang twisted his beard and shook his head: "Believing in the gods is the inheritance of the Dao system, but believing in the immortals in the world is another way. ”

Shen Quangui gave a thumbs up, deeply concerned about this. He was about to speak, but he saw Li Chao on the side take out his basket at some point.

I saw Li Chao holding an ancient porcelain vase, curiously rummaging and looking at it, for a moment, he looked at Shen Quangui with a smile, and said, "Uncle Shen, this porcelain vase still has dry soil, isn't it a very valuable antique?"

Shen Quangui wanted to stop it, but when he heard his words, he shook his head and smiled: "Maybe it's worth some money, this porcelain vase was purchased by me from a poor family, and the price is not expensive." ”

Before his words fell, Li Chao picked up a delicate porcelain with a delicate pattern and asked, "What about this?"

"The porcelain vase unearthed from the official kiln, the plaything of the official eunuch's family, is worth some gold and silver ......," Shen Quangui smiled slightly, and said patiently.

The two asked and answered, and Li Ban listened energetically. But Daoist Yunyang glanced at him and scolded slightly: "Bastard, why did you take out all the collections of Lord Shen, quickly put them back in place, don't damage the antiquities." ”

Li Chao was about to ask a question with another jade antique, but when he heard the master's reprimand, he hurriedly smirked and put the antique in his hand back into the basket.

And he was about to turn around and put the antique back in its place, but when he heard a snap, he saw two porcelains on his side fall together and shattered.

At the same time, Shen Quangui couldn't help but exclaim, "Oops, my baby!"

The master and apprentice looked at the broken porcelain and were taken aback, and the Yunyang Daoist said with a surprised expression: "Master Shen, the inferior apprentice didn't mean it." ”

Shen Quangui picked up some broken porcelain, glanced at the head of Yunyang, and said with regret: "The little master really troubled Shen, this is the porcelain unearthed from the official kiln, which is a preset plaything of the Yu family in Yongcheng, worth a hundred taels of gold." I never thought that when I was close to the city, it would be gone. As he spoke, he sighed deeply.

The master and apprentice looked at each other, at a loss. And when he heard that he said a hundred taels of gold, he couldn't help but change his expression.

Two porcelain vases are worth a hundred taels of gold, why are such precious playthings stored in such a simple basket? However, the porcelain vase was unintentionally broken by Li Ming, and the master and apprentice had to be silent first.
