Chapter 074: On the Eve of the Great War
"Fortune Dao Chief, how could you miss! How can you say that you are also within this radius of far and near, and you are the strongest immortal master!" Liu Liuga seemed to be looking for a lesson.
"I think it's because there are fewer people, and there are no people to stop him from escaping. Because he can't beat me, he'll run away. Fucai Dao Chang regretted that he didn't catch the monster looking for the book last night, and now he has a few more helpers, and he is full of confidence: "It's okay now, with a few of you to help me, let him not escape!"
Ji Cunsi, the eldest disciple of the Fucai Daoist, stretched out his empty hands and said to his master: "But I only thought of leading the way to you for these two donors, and I didn't bring a weapon, and you only brought a dust whisk to make a weapon, Master." Only one of the two benefactors brought a large knife. How do we stop the demons from escaping?"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid of him running away, I'm afraid that he won't dare to come again!" Tao Ziyun calmed everyone down with a lot of anger, "Fucai Daoist, why don't we go to the study now, and let the three people who just came here familiarize themselves with the terrain." ”
"You all come with me!" Liang Yuanwai heard Tao Ziyun say that he wanted to be familiar with the battlefield, and he didn't wait for the head of the Fortune Dao to think about it, so he got up and walked towards the study, and the others all followed.
In a very large study, in the middle of the four walls and the study, except for the window, there are no bookshelves, and there are tall bookshelves in other positions, and the shelves are full of books, more than a million books!
"You've seen it, have you thought of a proper way?" said Liang Yuanwai to the Fucai Dao Chief.
"Let's go out for a walk, I'm afraid that the ghost will not dare to come, as the Tao brother said. The head of Fucai agreed with Liang Yuanwai's idea of going out for a walk in the first place.
"I just mean! That ghost won't appear until the evening, I think it's time for lunch again, let's go to the restaurant outside for lunch!"
Liang Yuanwai asked the servants to drive the carriage out, and several servants entered the stable, set up a master's carriage, and also led Tao Ziyun and Liu Liuga's horses out. Liang Yuanwai only needed one servant to drive the carriage, and the rest of the servants stayed in the mansion, he and the master and apprentice of Fucai Dao sat in the carriage, guiding the servants to the restaurant he was going to, Tao Ziyun and Liu Liuga rode their respective horses and followed closely behind.
Liang Yuan went to the restaurant too far away, and it seemed that the time for lunch had passed, and he came to the "Jiangtian Restaurant," which was built on the riverside and was five stories high, and the horses rushed into the racecourse behind the restaurant, and they went up to the fifth floor, the highest floor of the restaurant, with the servant.
"Jiangtian Restaurant, worthy of its name! This restaurant, when I was an official in the court, I came to it several times when I returned to my hometown. Liang Yuan took them to the window on the fifth floor, pointed to the big river outside, and said: "There are white sails on the river, 'the lonely sail is far away and the blue sky is exhausted, only the Yangtze River skyline flows!'", 'Yangtze River Skyline' Jiangtian Restaurant, we will sit at the table by the window for lunch, and watch the wonderful scenery outside the window! Also, the dishes here are also unique in Sanyin!"
They sat down at the table by the window, the shopkeeper came to serve tea, Liang Yuan ordered food, and talked to Tao Ziyun about poetry and lyrics and Bagu Wenlai, under Tao Ziyun's inquiry, Liang Yuanwai told everyone about his old past, how to be admitted to Xiucai, and how to raise people and jinshi in the examination, and finally to do the Ministry of Works, his wife was also named Mrs. Yipin, unfortunately, his son was conscripted to guard the border in his early years, and the young talent died on the battlefield. He has been an official for more than 30 years since he was a 23-year-old high school jinshi and has been an official for more than 30 years, without the experience of being degraded.
Liang Yuanwai talked about the past, there were joys and sorrows about the loss of a child, and finally he said: "Now that black-faced monster with fangs and claws is annoying after all. ”
At this time, all kinds of dishes were served on the table one after another, except for the master and apprentice of Fucai Dao, who did not drink, everyone else drank in large bowls.
Tao Ziyun didn't want to talk about the ghost with Liang Yuanwai at this time, but asked him in detail about his thirty years of experience as an official and the way of being an official, which was very important.
In order to avoid turning lunch into dinner, the master and apprentice of Fucai Dao, who had already eaten a full meal, walked to the window to watch the scenery, so Liang Yuanwai noticed that it was not too early, so he called: "The housekeeper pays the bill", it turned out that the servant who came to drive the carriage was the housekeeper of the Liang Mansion.
The shopkeeper collected the money for the meal, and the shopkeeper also came up, and he said to Liang Yuanwai: "Lord Liang, I have long heard that your calligraphy is excellent! In the past, when Lord Liang returned to his hometown to come to the restaurant, the villain wanted Lord Liang to leave a calligraphy treasure for the restaurant, but the adult always said that the official affairs were busy, and he had never inscribed the restaurant, and now the villain implored Lord Liang to take the time to leave a calligraphy treasure for the restaurant. ”
Tao Ziyun also wanted to see the calligraphy of the former Lord Liang, so he persuaded him to write to the shopkeeper, but Liang couldn't stand the persuasion, so he agreed.
The shopkeeper was overjoyed and asked the shopkeeper to bring a blank plaque made of pen, ink, inkstone and sandalwood.
Liang Yuan wrote cursive on the blank plaque: "The first floor of the world on the river" seven big characters, such as the same clouds and flowing water, the pen is vigorous, and the wood is three points.
The shopkeeper took the written plaque and said happily to them: "My lord has written a good plaque, so that the glory of our restaurant will be greatly increased!
When Liu Liuga and Ji Cunsi saw that there was such a good thing, they couldn't help but applaud and shout!
The shopkeeper here thanked him again and again, but when he walked to the staircase, he was stopped by Tao Ziyun: "Shopkeeper, please take a blank plaque again, and I will also ask Liang Yuan to write a word!"
When the shopkeeper saw that it was a friend outside Liang who asked for a plaque, of course he gladly agreed and asked someone to bring the same blank plaque again.
Liang Yuan looked at the blank plaque outside and asked Tao Ziyun, "What kind of words are you writing?"
Just write two words: Wonderland. Tao Ziyun replied.
Liang Yuanwai neatly wrote those two words into a delicate plaque for him, and inscribed the name on it.
"Liang Yuanwai is good calligraphy! Look at me again!" Tao Ziyun said, holding the plaque written by Liang Yuanwai, facing the handwriting with his palm, sending out immortal skills, according to the weight of each stroke, the immortal power made those words concave, the parts with heavy pen power were sunken deeply, and the parts with light pen power were sunken shallow, so the ink also penetrated deeper into the wood of the plaque.
"Tao Gongzi is a good kung fu! It makes my work more vigorous!" Liang Yuanwai was amazed by Tao Ziyun's immortal skills.
"What is this for?" Liu Liuga couldn't help but ask Tao Ziyun.
"Have you been to Hu He's house, is the environment of her home a fairyland?" Tao Ziyun asked Liu Liuga rhetorically.
"Yes, Hu He is a fairyland, and this plaque is hanging on the door of their house!" I heard that it was there, and Liu Liuga was undisputed.
The shopkeeper brought someone to bring the dinner, and they ate and drank happily again, Tao Ziyun and Liang Yuanwai were masters of wine, and they were particularly close to each other when they chatted at the banquet.
When night came, the moonlight, the starlight, and the lights on the boats on the river were reflected, and bursts of sheng songs were heard. The master and apprentice of the Fucai Dao, who did not drink, walked to the window and stared at the river.
At this time, a fast horse ran to the "Jiangtian Restaurant", and the people on horseback shouted before they got off the horse: "Liang Yuanwai! Oh no! As soon as night fell, there was movement in the study! And there was more than one!"
