"What do you say?" Zhong Kui was shocked when he heard this, and the people at this time were still extremely convinced of the fortune telling, but perhaps because of Zhang Xuanqing's unreliable performance before, Zhong Kui's face flashed with suspicion.

Seeing this, Zhang Xuanqing waved his sleeves, put it behind him, and said with compassion on his face: "I don't want to say more about the poor road on the side, I just give you a word of advice, Your Majesty immediately, be good at judging people by their appearance...... "I don't say much, but I have said enough."

According to legend, Zhong Kui was because he was ugly, although he was talented and full of wealth, he still lost because of his ugly appearance, and finally died in anger outside the Taiji Palace, becoming a generation of ghost-eating heavenly masters.

Zhong Kui didn't know this, and his face instantly turned red when he heard this: "Why should the Taoist chief make fun of his appearance!" and said that Zhang Xuanqing deliberately made fun of him.

Zhang Xuanqing said bad when he saw it, this is because the other party is angry and rebellious. Secretly blamed himself for thinking that things were all in place, but he forgot to take care of the other party's skin. Originally, he shouldn't have made such a simple mistake, but he blamed himself for getting carried away, and hurriedly turned on his face and remedied: "Brother Zhong, don't misunderstand, Poor Dao has no intention of making fun of him......"

"Needless to say, Dao Chief. Zhong Kui waved his hand and interrupted: "Zhong is still a little self-aware, he already looks strange, what the Taoist chief said is true, and there is nothing wrong with it." However, the Taoist chief wants to say that the saint judges people by their appearance, but he does not believe them below. Besides, even if he is really said by the Tao, Zhong Mou's life is bright and fair, even if he doesn't win the champion, he is worthy of it!" said that he had regained his positive face.

Yes, it seems that today is destined to be in vain. Zhang Xuanqing opened his mouth, sighed and said, "That's it, that's it!" waved his hand, turned around and exited the room.

Only Zhong Kui was left with an inexplicable face.

......

Early the next morning, while eating, Sun Simiao and Liu Shenwei saw a strange scene.

I saw Zhang Xuanqing looking at Zhong Kui, who was eating with his head down, and opened his mouth several times to speak, but finally closed his mouth again, looking preoccupied.

Zhong Kui changed his clothes today, dressed as an orthodox literati, but the fabric was a little white after washing. In addition, he is burly and has a fierce face, which makes him look a little weird when he wears this.

Sun Simiao said in his heart that even if people dress weirdly, you can't look at it like this, and coughed lightly: "Brother Dao, what's wrong with you?" reminded him to restrain himself.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xuanqing put down the dishes and chopsticks when he heard this, and suddenly sighed: "Brother Dao, if you see that someone is about to be robbed, what should you do?" As he spoke, a pair of eyes were fixed on Zhong Kui, and anyone could see that he meant something.

Sun Simiao's heart moved slightly, and he also put down the dishes and chopsticks: "What do you mean by Brother Dao?"

On the side, Liu Shenwei swallowed the food in his mouth tightly, hiccuped, and asked curiously, "Uncle Shi, are you still proficient in fortune-telling?"

Zhang Xuanqing nodded, shook his head again, and said: "I am proficient but I can't talk about it, but I just learned a skill of watching qi and looking at luck by chance, and after practicing for a long time, I have gained a little." ”

"Really?" Liu Shenwei said with excitement on his face: "Then uncle, you can calculate it for me......

"Shenwei, don't mess around!" Sun Simiao interrupted him, his eyes swept towards Zhong Kui.

At this time, Zhong Kui Ye had already raised his head, his eyebrows were thick and light, tightly wrinkled together, for a long time, his eyebrows were slightly loose, and his thick lips were opened, revealing a row of uneven teeth: "Daochang Zhang, thank you for your kindness, your advice last night, Kui has taken it to heart." However, the husband has something to do and can't do, Kui has been studying hard since he was a child, and he still has a little knowledge, and he has a little strategy for governing the country and the people. If you listen to the words of the Taoist chief, you will be afraid and dare not go to Beijing, I am afraid that your conscience will be difficult in the future, I am sorry for the hard work of studying since childhood, and I am even more sorry for the teachings of the saints since childhood!"

Listen, listen, this ideal, this ambition, is really worthy of the evaluation of him by future generations!

To say that Zhong Kui's cultivation is really good enough, yesterday Zhang Xuanqing turned around and said that he was ugly, and he can still say such things today, which is really worthy of being upright, upright, and upright.

"Alas!" Zhang Xuanqing sighed, with regret on his face: "Why is Zhong Gongzi so stubborn?" his eyes swept to a jade pendant on Zhong Kui's waist, and the regret became even more obvious.

Zhong Kui didn't find out, but said: "The Taoist doesn't need to persuade much, he has already made up his mind." Clenched his fists, stood up, took out a string of copper coins, and respectfully placed them on the desk: "Thank you to the three Taoist chiefs for taking me in last night, and Zhong Mou felt five guilty." A little consultation money, talk about gratitude, and don't look too little. Now that the autumn test is imminent, Kui doesn't dare to delay, so he will leave!"

Sun Simiao got up and said, "Why is Gongzi Zhong in such a hurry to leave, Huayuan County is not far from the capital, it is better to stay for a few more days." ”

Liu Shenwei also said: "Yes, Brother Zhong, you better recover from your injuries before leaving." ”

Zhong Kui shook his head, regardless of the two of them, insisted on leaving.

Zhang Xuanqing said: "It is inevitable that Zhong Gongzi wants to leave, but Zhong Gongzi must remember that if something really happens, don't think about it." ”

Zhong Kui sincerely thanked him: "Thank you for your leniency!" and then said goodbye to a few people again.

Sun Simiao, Liu Shenwei, and Zhang Xuanqing sent them all the way to the door, and just opened the door, but they didn't expect two Taoist priests to come outside.

"Dare to ask a few people who is Zhang Zhenren? Yuan Tiangang, a poor Taoist, and his apprentice Li Chunfeng, have come to meet him!" The two Taoist priests were about to call the door, but when they saw a few people coming out, their eyes lit up, and they took the lead.

These two are none other than Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng's apprentices!

Now that the master and apprentice have seen and heard in the Drunken Immortal Building yesterday afternoon, they can't help but believe Zhang Xuanqing's rumors. Specially trimmed overnight, burned incense and bathed, washed away the dust, and came to visit early this morning.

Seeing that there were four people coming out of the door, three ways and one custom, Yuan Tiangang's attention should have been on the three Taoist priests, but somehow, they were subconsciously attracted by the monks dressed as a layman.

Ugly, ugly, ugly!

This thought flashed in the hearts of both Yuan Tiangang and apprentice, but immediately after, the two of them frowned together.

Yuan Tiangang thought about it in his heart, and couldn't help but speak: "This ...... Childe, but you want to go to Beijing to take the exam?"

Zhong Kui paused slightly, and looked at it: "How does the Taoist know about it?"

Yuan Tiangang's face flashed, and he suddenly sighed: "This son, listen to the advice of the poor Dao, don't go, don't go, otherwise you will lose your life!"

In an instant, Zhong Kui's heart jumped, and he suddenly looked back and looked at Zhang Xuanqing.

However, at this time, Zhang Xuanqing didn't seem to be here, just looking at Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng.

Zhong Kui looked at him for a long time, and seemed to deny something in his heart, turned his head and said, "This Taoist leader, why did you say this?" There was a little inexplicability between his expressions.

Yuan Tiangang sighed slightly, the sun that had just risen in the east just shone on his right face, reflecting a layer of soft light: "Childe doesn't need to ask more, in short, there is no need to deceive Childe......"

As soon as he said this, Li Chunfeng behind him suddenly spoke, his voice was calm, without a trace of waves, but what he said made people's hearts beat: "Short-lived life is not karma, and it is difficult to achieve things by seeking to do things." The six relatives are difficult to rely on, and the twenty-fourth autumn equinox will be lost...... This son, if you happen to be twenty-four years old this year, then you don't need to go to the capital. If you are not, then my master and apprentice have seen it wrong, and you can leave. ”

It seemed that he was not used to saying so many words at once, and after he finished speaking, a strange look flashed on his face, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Li Chunfeng is not Zhong Kui, Zhong Kui's eyebrows, one thick and one light, wrinkled very ugly. But Li Chunfeng has just passed the weak crown, his lips are red and his teeth are white, although he is wearing a robe, he looks like a handsome son, this frown actually gives people an extremely pleasing feeling.

Yuan Tiangang seemed to have a little bit of a complaint about this, and coughed dryly: "Chunfeng, don't talk too much, how many times have I told you......"

"I know Master, you can't say anything about it, and you won't be able to do it in the future. Li Chunfeng admitted his mistake, and his face was still very calm.

Seeing this, Zhong Kui suddenly fell silent.

Sun Simiao and Liu Shenwei glanced at each other, and turned to look at Zhang Xuanqing: If they are not mistaken, Zhang Xuanqing's abnormal performance just now is also related to this matter?

However, Zhang Xuanqing hadn't reacted at this time.

Looking at the two Taoist priests opposite, he thought to himself: What did these two people just say their names?

it!

Such two great gods...... Ahh

It wasn't until he felt the gaze of Sun Simiao's master and apprentice that he suddenly woke up. Shaking his head, he threw out the thoughts that had not slipped in his mind, and coughed lightly: "Zhong Gongzi ......" But as soon as he said a sentence, he was interrupted by Zhong Kui.

"Daochang Zhang, as well as these two Daochang, you don't have to say it, I, Zhong Kui, am not ignorant and can't listen to people's words. However, Kui Hanzhuang has been studying hard for more than ten years, if the ambitions in his chest cannot be displayed, even if he lives in the world, what fun is there?" said, flicked the hem of his clothes, hugged his fists and saluted: "Zhong Kui is here to bid farewell to all the Taoist leaders, if Zhong Kui really dies in the future, it is no wonder that others blame Zhong Kui's hard life." Ladies and gentlemen...... Farewell!"

In the early morning sun, Zhong Kui was tall and tall, pulling a long shadow, getting farther and farther away from the medical hall.

Looking at his back, Yuan Tiangang sighed: "Why bother here!" Although Li Chunfeng did not speak, a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes.

After a while, Sun Simiao suddenly spoke: "Two Taoist friends, would you like to go inside for a while?" It's not a matter to always stand outside, and there are already many pedestrians on the street at this time, but they are all looking at them.

Yuan Tiangang then remembered that he was still standing at the door of the house, and hurriedly said: "Don't blame a few Dao brothers, Poor Dao just saw that the son of Fang Cai had a strange appearance, and he was definitely not a person, so I wanted to point out a little bit of him." Didn't expect ......"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Zhang Xuanqing smiled and said, "This Brother Yuan Dao is right? And this Li Xiaodaoyou, come together, come together, let's talk in the house. "Compared with other Taoist priests who came to see him, he can be said to be polite and tight now.

Walking into the house, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng's apprentices had time to look at Zhang Xuanqing. I saw Zhang Xuanqing wearing a common green sermon robe in this world, with long hair and a shawl on his head, but he did not wear a crown, but tied it up with a strip of cloth at random, and the robe was also washed many times, looking very simple. The appearance is also like ordinary people, whether it is the nose, eyes, mouth, ears, they are all ordinary, not big or small, not thin or thick, but it looks very comfortable. It seems that any one of the facial features is different from ordinary people, it will destroy this different kind of beauty. The body is thin, not tall or short, but the skin looks very fair and warm, like a piece of beautiful jade.

Involuntarily, the master and apprentice stared at Zhang Xuanqing's face and performed physiognomy, but the more they looked at it, the more shocked they became.
