1054 The Good Wife
Today, Li Hongji and Venerable White Lotus are too happy, in fact, they have been worried these days, in case this matter is not done, and they also lose a boatload of gold, silver and jewelry, although they will not be punished when they return to the Southern Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that they will be ignored.
Although Li Hongji is habitually shameless, in front of his father Li Jing, he really wants some face, he hopes that his father can see his changes and can agree with his efforts. If this thing goes wrong...... Li Hongji really didn't know what face he had to meet his father.
Li Hongji has also figured out one thing now, his father Li Jing is also a straw bag, but he is a very dedicated emperor, although his head is not smart, and his martial arts are also very weak, but he finally defended the Southern Tang Dynasty for so many years with his own lifeless efforts.
Li Jing's efforts were not in vain, but what he did was not right. Li Jing is definitely a loser, and his behavior is no different from Chai Rong, that is, he squandered the money left by his ancestors and used it to requisition useless places.
Chai Rong is of course much better than Li Jing, he is squandering the money left by Guo Wei, but he is attacking useful places. As long as the Southern Tang Dynasty is destroyed, then the Great Zhou will seize the entire Central Plains without any obstacles, and there is no force that can match the Great Zhou.
It's a pity to say that Li Jing originally had many opportunities to seize the world, but he didn't grasp the opportunity. Li Hongji secretly swore that he would never make the same mistake.
In fact, Chai Rong also had this opportunity, and it was an opportunity to easily seize the world, but it was not necessarily given up by him himself.
Li Hongji felt that the reason why Zongxin disappeared was because of Chai Rong's destruction of the Buddha, after all, Master Zongxin was a monk, and Chai Rong offended Master Zongxin very much by casting copper coins to destroy the Buddha. Therefore, Chai Rong gave up the opportunity to seize the whole world in order to covet a small profit in front of him.
This is indeed an opportunity for the Southern Tang Dynasty, if there has always been the support of Master Zongxin, let alone attacking Shouzhou to seize the Southern Tang Dynasty. Even if the world is pacified, it is not difficult to counterattack the Khitan.
Li Hongji thought about it for a while, and this time he hired Wuyazi Dao for half a year. It's not that he has to leave at the end of this mission.
When the time comes, he will buy a mansion for Daoist Wuyazi near the East Palace of Jinling, and let him and Xiang'er live there. Anyway, there is a suite there, just come back occasionally and stay for a few days, as long as the Taoist Wuyazi comes back, he will immediately take him out to play, and learn knowledge while playing.
This is a good solution, but of course that's a story for later. When the Wuyazi Dao Master was here, he learned a little more from him, because what he taught was indeed too useful.
If Yelu Zhen knew that Li Hongji could learn the knowledge of Master Zongxin for only such a small amount of money, he would have to be mad. will definitely scold Tianya for being unproductive, but Yeluzhen is just scolding a few words at most, otherwise what else can he do? It is estimated that he can only pay a higher price for Tianya to teach himself.
Drinking wine and eating meat is one of the favorite things to do in the rivers and lakes. Don't look at the White Lotus Venerable at such an age, there is no ambiguity at all when he eats meat. Tianya is a boy in the growth period, and he can stuff anything into his mouth.
Originally, Li Hongji was still very private, but after Tianya's training, he now learns to hold a large piece of meat to gnaw, and no longer uses a cup to drink, and the bowl is too small, and many times he drinks with a jar.
Only Xiang'er is more private, after all, it is a daughter, although Xiang'er is used to the set of Jianghu people, but she still behaves very privately in front of Tianya. Occasionally, when there are only Tianya and Xiang'er, she will be heroic, but it is impossible for Xiang'er to lose Tianya's face like this in front of outsiders.
A gust of wind swept the clouds, and the three men patted their stomachs in satisfaction. Tianya is used to this kind of meal, but for Li Hongji and Venerable White Lotus, it is completely because the matter is resolved, and the amount of food naturally increases after there is no pressure.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, but the amount of food is a lot bigger, but I haven't seen any progress in martial arts, how did your master teach you?"
Everyone suddenly felt numb in their backs, the four people present were all martial arts practitioners, and their martial arts were not bad. But no one felt the existence of this person, he appeared like this, and spoke behind Wu Yanzi like this, this person's skill was even higher than that of Dugu Xingyue.
They are all martial arts practitioners, and there is nothing they don't understand. In the Youzhou realm, there is only one person whose martial arts are higher than Dugu Xingyue...... Jeremi.
Tianya slowly turned his head, and sure enough, it was Yeluzhen. is still a dark robe, sword eyebrows, long hair has no trace of variegation, and his appearance is like the prime of his thirties, without a trace of aging. This is younger than when Tianya first saw Yeluzhen, and his skills have improved so much that Tianya can't compare with it at all.
Tianya swallowed his saliva and said, "Uncle Yelu, why did you come to Youzhou?"
"It's okay to wander around, and by the way, take the troops to Cangzhou to do some sabotage. Although he can't storm Cangzhou for the time being, he feels good when he looks at Fu Yanqing's anxious eyes at the gate of Cangzhou. By the way, let the Central Plains people appreciate the rejuvenation of me, do you know how cool it is to regain the youthfulness of the body?"
"Uncle Yelu, you and I have no grudges, if there is anything to do with my master Xiaoyaozi, don't get along with my junior. ”
Tianya must say these words before Yeluzhen, otherwise Yeluzhen will be in trouble if he says Zongxin's name. Although it is already dangerous at this time, Tianya is a very dedicated person and will seize everything in his favor.
Yeluzhen looked left and right, then nodded, probably guessing what Tianya meant. is really worthy of being an apprentice from the sect, and he also likes to play this set.
Yelu Zhen said: "You don't have to worry, if I want to kill you, you won't have a chance to eat the second chicken leg at all." I am also friends with Xiaoyaozi, and I have no grudges, which you should know very well. I just passed by suddenly, and I felt a familiar smell here, but when I came in, I saw you, and I came over to say hello. ”
"Familiar smell?"
"Yes, it's the breath from your master's body, but it's not from your master's body. That breath is in your arms, call Xiao Jinjin out for me to see. "Yeluzhen has long known that Zong Xin has a Zeshui Beast on his body, and Zeshui Beast is a supernatural thing, and the smell on his body is naturally different from that of ordinary people.
Only Yeluzhen could sense the scent of Xiao Jinjin's body, because he had also interacted with the Zeshui Beast. It's not Xiao Jinjin, it's the Zeshui beast that was killed by Guo Wei at the beginning.
When the demon concubine Yaochi was raising the Zeshui beast, Shi Jingtang had formed an alliance with the Khitan. During that time, Yeluzhen had contact with the Zeshui Beast, and they liked each other very much. It's just that Zeshui Beast doesn't like to be with people, it just likes to bully small animals, and the person who raised it is Yaochi, so it didn't become Yeluzhen's mount.
Xiao Jinjin peeked out of Tianya's arms and looked at Yeluzhen, this person he also knew, and he had seen it more than once. But unlike Zhao Kuangyin, the threat given to it by this person was too great, so Xiao Jinjin didn't go over to say hello, but just looked at him in Tianya's arms.
Yeluzhen chuckled and said, "I'm afraid it will take another two or three hundred years to be a mount, and now this one is too small." ”
"That is to say, I had a good relationship with Xiao Jinjin just to let it be a mount, but as a result, my body has barely changed for several years, and it is still so small, and my efforts for so many years have been in vain. ”
"Admit it, do you know how safe it is to carry a Zeshui Beast on my body? Even if I am bitten by a Zeshui Beast, it will take a while to recover, and the pain caused by the poison will definitely not be easily eliminated. You owe it to you that you have such a good master, otherwise who would want to give the Zeshui Beast to someone else? And you have this knife handle, every time I see it, my heart is furious......"
Yelu really didn't lie at all, the Zeshui Beast is the most poisonous thing in the world, even if this Zeshui Beast is still young, it is not a joke to be bitten by it.
A master of Yeluzhen's level has a strong ability to resist poison, and he also has a set of plans to barely fight after poisoning. But if Yelu Zhen was bitten by the Zeshui Beast, he would not dare to fight with all his strength, and he must use some of his internal force to suppress the poison.
Of course, there is also the illusion on the waist of Tianya, an absolute attack without any means of defense, the blade can switch freely between nothingness and entities, this kind of weapon against the sky, as long as it is used well, no matter who is a knife will die, the body protection is useless at all, the blade can directly pass through the body, showing the entity inside the body, so this knife is a relatively invincible existence.
Yeluzhen was so envious when he saw these two treasures, but as a Khitan national teacher and the father of the Khitan Emperor Yelujing, of course Yeluzhen would not snatch these two things.
Although Yelu can be shameless, he is not afraid of the end of the world. But Yeluzhen is still worried about Zongxin, and now that he hasn't seen Zongxin for a while, how far has his martial arts improved? No one can say, and sooner or later, Zong Xin's martial arts will surpass him, Yeluzhen is convinced of this, so he doesn't want to offend people like Zongxin for something.
Now Yeluzhen and Zong Xin have a good relationship, and if they meet with Zong Xin, it is no problem to drink and talk or even ask him for a favor.
Although there is no communication, there is no hatred, and they have cooperated with each other a few times, and Yeluzhen does not want to destroy the current state.
Li Hongji and Venerable White Lotus had already guessed that the Daoist of Boundless Sect was extraordinary, and they couldn't imagine that it could make a supreme master like Yelu Zhen feel furious?
Although the two were curious, they knew that Daoist Wuyanzi didn't want to say anything, not to mention that now Yeluzhen was by his side, Li Hongji was the prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he didn't want to say a word. It would be bad if Jerod knew who he really was.
Yelu Zhen said: "Eh~~ Boy, what are you doing in Youzhou? And you have these people with you, are they all your friends?"
Xiang'er immediately said: "Uncle Yelu, I am the wife of the Daoist of Wuyazi, these two are my friends, let's come here to buy some things." ”
Yeluzhen and Tianya both nodded secretly, this girl is married right. If Tianya's self-introduction at this time seemed a little fake, it would be impossible for Yeluzhen to take the initiative to ask what Tianya's name was now, so he hesitated just now.
Unexpectedly, Xiang'er answered immediately, which also let Yelu Zhen know that Tianya should be called Wuyazi now. Of course, this is also what Yelu really expected, after all, he is obviously a Taoist priest in this dress, and he must no longer be called Tianya.
