Hengyang County

Upper reaches of Xiangshui. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Several leafy autumn laurel trees with tiny yellowish flowers.

The breeze is slight, and the aroma is rich and smoky. An ancient pavilion with eight red lacquer pillars and four corners of the cornices raised high is hidden in the middle.

On top of the ancient pavilion, there is a stone table and several stone benches.

The two Taoists sat opposite each other, talking and laughing.

One of them was scruffy in gray cloth and had a surprisingly large head, but he wore a small gray felt hat and carried a yellow gourd on his back.

His eyebrows are high, his face is strange, his eyes are bright, and his face is ruddy like a baby. As he spoke, a pair of big hands like a fan picked up a long black crutch on the stone bench from time to time.

The other person, with his hair combed and his bun clutched, and a pair of big eyes on his red face, was particularly attentive.

He was holding a tattered banana fan, dressed casually, with his chest exposed. When he spoke, his hair was slightly brushed, and his voice was like a bell.

Between the two of them chatting.

The latter person asked in surprise: "Brother Li Dao, your flat crutch treasure is faint and spiritual, but what is the origin of it?" ”

Tie Guan Li said with a smile: "The poor Dao is a flat cane but the Taiqing Patriarch, who took a 3,000-year-old peach dry branch from the Pan Tao Garden to refine, which can not only know the weather and rain, know the cold and heat, but also use it as a weapon." ”

When Han Zhongli heard this, he sighed.

Tie Guan Li sighed and said, "It's a pity, although the spirit treasure is good, it is still a foreign object. It's better for me to wait for my own cultivation to become more important. ”

Han Zhongli said with a smile: "The day before yesterday, didn't Brother Li Dao just make a merit, and his cultivation has also improved a lot. Why are these words still there? ”

Tie Guan Li said helplessly: "Immortal true immortal, double cultivation of life." Before attaining enlightenment, the physical body cannot be damaged. Alas...... After all, the body of Poor Dao is not his own. It's extremely unpleasant to use. ”

It turned out that three hundred years ago, at the time of Mount Tai, Tie Guan Li accepted a filial son Yang Ren as an apprentice in the mortal world.

One day, Tie Guan Li Xiu went to the realm of immortals, and his heart was happy. The spirit is out of the body, traveling in the three mountains and five mountains, so that he forgets the time.

And Yang Ren, the apprentice who took care of the physical body, had not practiced for a long time, and with the naked eye, he saw that his teacher's body was cold and his breath was gone. I thought that the teacher drove the crane to the west, and his soul returned to the underworld.

He cried and cinerated the teacher's body, mourning.

As a result, when Tie Guan Li Yuanshen came back, he was so angry that he was stunned and almost vomited blood.

Paused and shouted: The shaft hurts me.

But at this time, the body has been burned to charcoal, and it is too late to rescue.

Although the immortals are detached and ascended to immortals, they can be reborn with broken limbs, but at least you have to exist in the flesh.

The physical body is so important to immortality, if it weren't for Yang Ren, it would be an unintentional loss. On that day, Lao Li had to kill this criminal alive.

In the end, it was Wen Shizhen who held the Taiqing talisman and came to Mount Tai to explain cause and effect.

Tie Guan Li Fang knew that this matter actually had little to do with Yang Ren. Speaking of which, it was Tie Guan Li's own planting that led to today's fruit.

Tie Guan Li sighed, and had no choice but to give up a black and lame sloppy beggar who died of hunger and freezing.

Fortunately, the Taiqing patriarch commented that he could achieve a true immortal in a different way. He also took a peach withered branch from the peach orchard and refined a true-grade spiritual treasure for himself.

However, the young Taoist who used to have clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, red lips and white teeth, has since become a sloppy cripple, and it cannot but be said that it makes people laugh and cry.

Han Zhongli stroked his hair and smiled slightly: "Brother Dao, don't worry too much. Since the Taiqing Patriarch said that my generation has a true immortal fate, just wait for the opportunity. ”

When Tie Guan Li heard this, he also smiled and said: "Two or three hundred years have passed, and the poor road has been looked down upon. Don't talk about that. ”

Tie Guan Li smiled: "Zhong Daoyou, why didn't you see your proud disciple." ”

Hearing this, Han Zhongli hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Brother Dao, don't say that. In the past, although the poor Dao had the grace of preaching in Lu Chunyang, he was still known as a Taoist friend. ”

Tie Guan Li laughed, his finger lightly tapped Han Zhongli, and laughed loudly: "Zhong Daoyou, this Lu Daoyou is not simple, his cultivation is really advancing by leaps and bounds, in just six hundred years, he will ask the door of the true immortal." ”

Han Zhongli smiled faintly: "Pure Yang Daoist, with a profound heritage, it is not uncommon to have this entry. ”

Tie Guan Li was stunned, seemed to be thoughtful, and smiled: "It's too." ”

At this time, Han Zhongli proposed with a smile: "By the way, I heard that a new tavern has opened in Hengyang County, and the smell of wine can be smelled for ten miles, I'll wait to see how it goes." ”

Tie Guan Li said angrily: "It is exactly what I want." ”

The two of them usually love the things in the cup, and between proposals, they just go.

Suddenly, the autumn wind gently shakes the cinnamon, and only the cinnamon fragrance is left here, lingering.

......

Hengyang County, above the official road.

The coachman raised his whip, and the carriage galloped merrily, leaving behind the scenery under the autumn sun.

Inside the carriage, Liu Hai's face was pale, his chest rose and fell, and he said with a palpitating face: "Master Lu, thanks to you, otherwise, we will be harmed by thieves." ”

Thinking of Fang Cai's scene, Liu Hai was still afraid.

When the carriage passed through a high mountain and dense valley, dozens of refugees in tattered clothes suddenly rushed out with sticks in their hands.

yelled at Lu Bei and the others to get out of the car, and handed over their belongings.

Just when the coachman trembled with fear, he secretly regretted that he should not covet the ten taels of silver given by Lu Bei, and took a great risk to come to Hengyang County.

Lu Bei crossed out of the carriage, thundered out, and cut off the heads of the three bandit leaders with a sword.

Thinking back to that time, the sword light was shining, and blood arrows spewed out three feet.

And the young man's eyes were cold, and he stood in a plain robe in a dusty spot among the silent bandits.

The bangs are now straight in the legs and stomachs.

Blink of an eye, he looked at the young man who was sitting on the side of the carriage, silent, and with a faint expression, and his heart was frightened and terrified.

Especially at that time, Lu Bei's brows were furrowed, his face was frosty, and he actually killed those thieves who tried to escape from the desert one by one on the side of the mountain road.

He also questioned loudly, saying that his methods were too fierce, bloody and brutal. was coldly glanced at by Lu Bei.

Bangs was cold in his heart at that time, and cold sweat came out of his back.

Thinking that he had been chopping wood in the mountains for a long time, some vicious beasts had also been seen from afar, but he had never seen such a cold and evil eye.

In the carriage, I saw that Liu Hai's eyes were flashing at this time, and his expression was pale.

Lu Bei smiled faintly: "These thieves may also be kind ordinary people. However, once you become a hungry mob, you do the same thing as an animal. ”

Hearing this, Liu Hai said with a blank look: "Master Lu, it's a good point." How could I have imagined that those people who looked so honest just now could be so cruel. I thought they were all being held hostage by the skull. ”

Thinking of the scene before, Lu Bei had a cold face and dragged himself to those thieves' cottages, and his stomach was churning again.

Purgatory on earth, madness.

In the cottage, some women looked at the two of them with dull eyes.

In the open space in the village, there is a large cauldron, and the fire below is not extinguished, and the meat is boiling.

The aroma and heat wafted away, and it aroused the appetite of the bangs at that time.

Lu Bei dragged his bangs to look at the cauldron, and the bangs found that they were actually boiling...... A large pot of human flesh.

From the boiling broth, a petite skull, it is not difficult to see...... I can't bear to read it.

Thinking of this, Liu Hai still had surprise and discomfort on his face, and suddenly asked, "Master Lu, how can you see that they are eating...... What kind of thing. ”

Lu Bei was tall, his eyes were far away, and his expression gradually showed nostalgia, as if he had thought of something.

Yu Yu replied, "Their eyes are not normal...... That's not looking at your own kind of eyes. ”

Bangs silently chewed on Lu Bei's words.

In his previous life, Lu Bei worked as a mercenary in a small African country, which was a magical place where famine and war were endless all year round.

Such human tragedies have long been common to him.

Needless to say, though.

Inside the car, the atmosphere gradually became quiet and dull, and only the sound of the carriage gurgling echoed in the ears of the two people with different thoughts.
