Chapter 3 Inner disciple Li Daohan
"The lord is back, the lord is back. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info" When Li Yuanbao was wondering, he heard the shouts of the door outside the gate.
"Hahaha, happy, happy, is Bao'er back? Is Bao'er back? Before Li Fugui appeared, his loud voice came.
"Young Master Bao is back, back. The housekeepers and maids in the courtyard hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"Oh, what a man, and so frizzy. Wei saw the fat Li Fugui enter the courtyard, and while talking, he asked the maid to prepare tea, and then greeted him.
Li Yuanbao followed closely behind Wei, and then looked at Xiao Jucai, who pouted and didn't move, just looked down at his toes, his face was full of unhappiness.
"Haha, I'm happy today, I just came out of the county office, and I saw Jia Wenhan and his son being beaten like a meat bun, and when I asked, I knew that it was our family Bao'er who beat him, happy, Jia Wenhan this...... Haha, okay. Li Fugui wanted to curse a few words, but suddenly remembered that Jia Wenhan was a magistrate after all, and it must not be a good thing if he was heard by his subordinates, so he didn't continue.
"Dad, okay. Li Yuanbao hurriedly greeted him.
"Yes, good. Li Fugui saw Wei and Li Yuanbao come out, shook and patted the dust on his body, held Wei with one hand, stroked Li Yuanbao's head with the other, and the three of them entered the living room together.
"Well, Cai'er, what's wrong, why are you unhappy?" Li Fugui entered the living room and sat down, the maid hurriedly served tea, and just wanted to say something, when she caught a glimpse of Xiao Jucai who bowed her head on the side, and asked in a low voice with a smile.
"Hmph, Daddy, you know if you ask your brother if he's back, and he doesn't care about me?"
"Oh, my family is jealous, hahaha, come on, let my father hug and kiss. Li Fugui stood up, picked up Xiao Jucai, kissed him heavily, and his hands were not idle, gently squeaking Xiao Jucai.
"Hey, hey, hey, Daddy, I'm going to eat sugar. Xiao Jucai was amused by Li Fugui and laughed, twisting and begging.
"Okay, Erya, go get some honey for the little master to eat. Li Fugui turned his head and told the maid to go down and get it.
"Yes, I see, sir. Erya hurriedly answered and went down to get honey.
"I know that I am used to it, I know that I am used to it, and my teeth are broken. Wei smiled and complained.
"Dad, today I am in the academy and my son in Jia Zhixian ......" Li Yuanbao saw that Li Fugui was teasing Xiao Jucai, so he approached, knelt on the ground, and explained to Li Fugui in a low voice what happened in the academy today.
"Okay, okay, fight well, I heard about this Jia Renyi early, relying on his father is a magistrate, he has always been a high student, and he oppressed the good at a young age, he should fight, get up. Li Fugui smiled and waved his hand indifferently.
"That's it, that's it, it's not a big deal, brother, get up, hehe. Xiao Jucai said while dancing and winking at Li Yuanbao.
"Please punish your father, as a scholar, you should respect your teacher, be kind, and make good peers, you shouldn't fight in vain, please punish your father. Li Yuanbao turned a blind eye to Xiao Jucai's hints, and still knelt down to admit his mistake.
Li Yuanbao has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, following the principle of benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith as a gentleman, in the final analysis, he is still a scholar, and Jia Renyi's theory is also angry with books.
"Okay, okay, get up quickly, it's time to eat, what do you want to eat today? Wei bent down to help Li Yuanbao, hugged him lovingly, and helped him pat off the soil that stuck to his body.
"Mother, my rock sugar pear porridge hasn't come yet?" Xiao Jucai remembered that his porridge hadn't come up yet, and hurriedly writhed in Li Fugui's arms.
"Wait, you all go down. Li Fugui suddenly turned pale, sent all the people in the hall down, his expression was serious, and he said: "I almost forgot, this afternoon, Jia Wenhan, that bastard, called all the people in the county to his mansion, saying that the immortals who selected disciples from Qingfeng Gate will come to the county tonight, and let everyone pay for some gifts together to welcome them." β
"Hmph, take my money and let him buy it himself, I was the first to disagree, and I gave him no at the time, damn, I want to send his son and let me make up the money, don't do it. The more Li Fugui spoke, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but have a hideous expression on his face, so frightened that Xiao Jucai didn't dare to move in Li Fugui's arms.
"Be quiet, don't scare the child, huh, is it really here?" Wei Shi seemed to have known the news for a long time, and was not surprised, so he took Xiao Jucai and asked in a low voice.
"Well, it's really here, fortunately, your brother has already sent the news, or let this Jia grandson take the lead, he would have said that he would come, why didn't he Jia grandson say it sooner or later, and only said it at this time, what do you mean, he deliberately pressed it down to catch everyone off guard, did he know that ordinary money was eye-catching by the Qingfeng Gate monk?"
"Hmph, I can't take the lead today, I think a few of them are poor, what kind of gift can they make?" Li Fugui slapped the table angrily, and the sound shocked the subordinates in the courtyard to look over here from time to time, but without the master's order, they could only watch from afar.
"What are you angry about, if you want me to say, just go with the flow, if you can't do it, what's the benefit of being chosen, when I was young, I heard the child's grandfather say that there was a person in the Zhao family in the county who was selected, and he didn't come back for more than a hundred years, I don't know if he was dead or alive, and he heard that no one in their old Zhao family was alive two years ago, and they were all extinct. Wei didn't seem to care about Qingfeng Sect's selection of disciples, and he seemed to persuade Li Fugui not to care.
"Ahem, what do you know, if you are chosen, even if you can't become an immortal in the future, you will be begged by the court to worship when you come back, and glorify my Li family for several generations, now don't look at the scenery of our Wei family and the Li family, in fact, there is no foundation, it's good now, I don't know who will be able to take care of the family after a hundred years with your younger brother." β
"Isn't it very good to study, you don't have to leave home, and you can still glorify your ancestors in the future. Wei retorted with a cold face, which surprised Li Yuanbao and Li Jucai, who had never seen their parents so theorized about one thing, and did not dare to speak out.
"In the woman's opinion, what can you do to get fame, it's okay in Zhenwu Mansion, we are nothing out of Zhenwu Mansion, there is no one in the court, and there is no future for fame in the future, don't look at that Jia Wenhan is now a magistrate, but his family has been an official for generations, and there are many ancestors and protΓ©gΓ©s, not now, it may soar into the sky in the future, what does our family have?" Li Fugui saw that Wei was a little angry, so he explained helplessly.
"I just can't figure it outγγγγγγ Wei wanted to speak, but halfway through, he was interrupted by Li Fugui.
"Okay, don't say it again, I discussed it with your brother, your two nephews were not selected in Zhenwu Mansion, the conditions for their selection are harsh and too strict, but the worship of Zhenwu Mansion has a good relationship with me and your brother, and it is revealed that the Qingfengmen monks who came to Fucheng County this time have some preferences, fortunately, we have already made preparations, haha." Speaking of this, Li Fugui was silent.
"Okay, it's not early, Mrs. and Cai'er eat, I'll take Bao'er to Cuizhulou for a banquet in a while, let Uncle Wang prepare the carriage, Bao'er go and change clothes, and leave after changing." Li Fugui saw that it was not early, so he got up and said to Wei, and called the loyal servant Uncle Gui, who was waiting in the courtyard, to prepare the carriage.
"Sir...... cough" Wei got up and wanted to stop it, but when the words came to his mouth, he stopped, shook his head helplessly, looked at the little gathering wealth in his arms, and silently shed tears.
"Mother, don't cry. Xiao Jucai pouted, raised his arm and wiped Wei's tears with his sleeve.
Li Fugui sighed, got up and walked out of the living room, waited in the courtyard for Li Yuanbao to change his clothes, and got into the car together.
"Dad, what do I need to do with you this time?" Sitting in the carriage, Li Yuanbao looked at Li Fugui and asked with some hesitation.
"You're so smart, I guess you've guessed what I told your mother just now. Li Fugui thought for a moment, stared at Li Yuanbao and said solemnly. After a pause, seeing that Li Yuanbao was still looking at him with inquiring eyes, he sighed and continued.
"Bao'er, you grew up in Fucheng County since you were a child, and you have never traveled far away, do you know that our Song Kingdom has a population of tens of millions of households and a land area of thousands of miles, but outside the Song Kingdom, there are many, many countries larger than the Song Kingdom, and there are many small counties like ours in the world, even if the Song Kingdom is just ants. β
"There are so many people in every country, who focus on cultivation, those who practice profoundly, can fly to the sky and the earth, and can turn millions of soldiers and horses into smoke and dust with a snap of their fingers, whether a country can exist depends on whether he has a cultivator, and the cultivators get together, and a sect is formed, and a country without a guardian sect can only perish, and the guardian sect of the Song State is Qingfeng Gate. Li Fugui looked at Li Yuanbao and paused, and when he saw that Li Yuanbao was not surprised, he continued:
"Qingfeng Gate's selection of disciples is generally not so public, I heard that this is the first open selection in thousands of years, our Li family and Wei family want to seize this opportunity, your two cousins are not good, and your younger brother is too young to gather wealth, so my uncle and I will put our hopes on you. β
"As long as you are selected, you can also ensure the safety of the two families in the Song Kingdom for at least a hundred years. Bao'er, don't blame your father for being ruthless, Dad also hopes that you can have a better future in the future. Speaking of this, Li Fugui's eyes were a little dim, his eyes were red, he couldn't look directly at Li Yuanbao, turned his head to look out the window, and stopped talking.
Looking at his father who suddenly looked old, Li Yuanbao didn't know what to say, he lowered his head silently, the outside world is very big, Li Yuanbao knows a lot from his teacher Wang Ru, and now it is suddenly possible to leave his parents, leave Fucheng County, where he has lived since childhood, and it may be forever, he can't help but feel a pain in his heart, and he silently looks out of the window.
The carriage walked very slowly, the county seat of Fucheng outside the window was already empty alleys, the news that the Qingfeng Gate immortal cultivators were coming to select disciples had spread all over the city, and the people who were invited to the welcome banquet continued to flock to the Cuizhu Tower, and the people who did not have the opportunity went out of their homes one after another in the hope of seeing the appearance of the legendary immortal cultivators, and more in the hope of being selected and starting the mysterious and fascinating career of cultivating immortals.
"Sir, it's here. Uncle Gui's voice broke the calm in the car and eased the embarrassment between father and son.
"Let's go, Bao'er, go in with my father, the people of our old Li family will either not fight, or if they want to fight, they will fight for the first, remember. Li Fugui looked at Li Yuanbao with resolute eyes and said vigorously.
"Well, I know, Dad, I won't embarrass our Li family. Li Yuanbao's heart tightened, looked at Li Fugui, and replied solemnly.
"Uncle Gui, have everything been arranged?" Li Fugui got out of the car, turned around and asked Uncle Gui.
"Yes, you're all set. Uncle Gui nodded in response.
"Uncle Gui, you have been in my Li family for more than fifty years, and I am also your favorite, so please bother with this matter. Li Fugui bowed to Uncle Gui to the end.
"Master, don't worry, you and Young Master Bao grew up under my watch, the Li family is my home, I will do a good job this time." Uncle Gui hurriedly dodged and swore.
Li Fugui swept around, and saw that there were more people around him looking at him, so he didn't say anything more, and took Li Yuanbao into the Cuizhu Building.
Cuizhu Building, as the name suggests, a small building built with Cuizhu, the environment is beautiful, the furnishings are luxurious, the singer is beautiful, the dishes are diverse, the price is expensive, it is the best restaurant in Fucheng County, the restaurant is divided into three floors, the first floor is the hall to receive individual guests, the second floor is the private room, the third floor is mostly the terrace, there is only one small house, located in the corner of the terrace.
Li Fugui kept greeting friends around him, while Li Yuanbao lowered his head and followed him on the terrace, and the wide terrace was already full of people at this time, all of whom were well-known figures in Fucheng County, but they didn't come by themselves, they brought their children with them, Zheng Xi, Zhao Zhi, and Sanpang were among them, and when they looked around, they saw Jia Renyi and his father Jia Wenhan, whose faces were swollen like a pig's head.
At this time, Jia Renyi's hateful eyes also looked at Li Yuanbao, and when the two looked at each other, they heard someone shouting, "Look, it's coming, it's coming." β
Li Yuanbao turned his mind and looked at the air, his heart couldn't help but stir, and he said, "I can really fly." Then I saw a figure flying from the east, and when I flew closer, I saw that the man was thirty or forty years old, wearing a white robe, black boots, a bun on his head, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a kind face, his hands behind his back, smiling and looking at everyone, and looking carefully, there was a flying sword under his feet.
When everyone was shocked, they suddenly saw a person stand up, bend down and arch his hand: "Jia Wenhan, the magistrate of Fucheng County, led the elders and villagers of this county to welcome the immortal chief. β
The middle-aged monk in the air returned the salute with a smile and said:
"Jia Zhixian is polite, the immortal chief does not dare to be, Li Daohan, a disciple of the inner door of the Qingfeng Gate, thanked the villagers for their warm welcome. β
I'm busy with work, but I still insist on updating it every day, not for anything else, just because of my hobby.
