Chapter 981: terrifying

Yu Dynasty, the era name Shenlong.
After parting with that Cui Dongshan, Wang Zhu only took Gong Yan and Wang Qiongju by his side, and the other three servants of the water house, Huang Man, a Jade Taoist who is a ghost fairy, Li Ba, whose Taoist name is Quenzhang, and Ximan, who was born in a land dragon. Since the three have been recruited by Qingping Jianzong, they need to inspect the future trend of Dadu and the mountains and rivers along the way. Traveling all the way through the mountains and waters, the trip was uncertain, just looking at the mood of the East Sea Monarch, the two sides parted ways and made an appointment to meet at the Jicui Temple in Luojing.
Between the palace city and the imperial city of Luojing, there is a white rice alley, and the Jicui Temple of the abbot Lu Bilong, the real protector of the country, is located here.
The Taoist temple buildings are all made of green glazed tiles made by royal official kilns. Inside the temple are lush pines and cypresses.
However, Huang Man and the others arrived in Luojing earlier than the three people who were light and unhurried. They were waiting at a tea stall outside the capital of a post station. As expected, at noon today, when the sun was shining brightly, there appeared on the official road. I got a simple carriage, and the driver was the young man Wang Qiongju with a red leather gourd on his back. When he looked at his clothes, outsiders would know that he was a practitioner. Ordinary masters would not be stupid when they traveled abroad, right? gourd.
Wang Zhu, who was dressed in a snow-white robe, got off the carriage, and Gong Yan, who was dressed in brocade, followed closely, stopped the horse to drink tea, and sat at a table.
Only the young man was not qualified to drink tea at the table, so he could only hold a tea bowl and squat on the side of the road.
Gong Yan couldn't help but said, "Shui Jun, do we really want to have something to do with this Yu dynasty?"
She has a really bad impression of the Yu Dynasty. Along the way, she has seen many officials who are reticent, like to talk clearly, and are very happy to work. Many local policies are flashy and pretentious.
A decree from the six government offices in Luojing, issued layer by layer, may end up with only a third of the benefits for the common people, and a local official with a brilliant pen and a flower can blow out the effect of 11 points.
The newly released top ten dynasties of Tongyezhou, the Daquan Dynasty topped the list, the Dachong Dynasty was the third, and the Yu Dynasty was the fifth, but it is such a dynasty whose reputation has long been ruined. To protect five and three.
Li Ba said: "The water in the big spring is very deep and difficult to control. Assuming that the Yao clan's national strength in Daquan is ten and the Yu clan is five, then the big spring can be used by my water house, at most two or three, but the Yu clan's dynasty is five, as many as you want. How much you are willing to give, in this comparison, Shuifu is naturally more cost-effective to support the Yu Dynasty. The only problem is that this Yu Dynasty is not stingy and can't help it, but it will cause our Shuifu to cause a lot of trouble. "
Huang Man smiled and said: "In short, Yao Jinzhi doesn't obey, this girl is too hard-boned, it's normal, if it weren't for this temper, how to keep Daquan Guozuo, I remember that the wild demon clan opened Mirage City at that time. The conditions for the delivery are still very good, and it is the only one. On the other hand, the emperor of the Yu clan lying on the sickbed is very obedient, and he is more out of breath than air in. He is still thinking about how to please us, but he does not know the crown prince Yu Lin who inherited the great lineage. You, what is your attitude, this trip to Luojing, Li Ba, you are also a former national teacher, so you have to help me."
Gong Yan glared and said, "Speak politely to me, don't be a bitch."
Huang Man laughed dumbly, Ah Wu, Ah Wu, now turn your elbows out, are you the same enemy as Yao Jinzhi?
Wang Zhu sneered and said, "Support? The Yu Dynasty and my Water House just pay tribute on time every year."
Gong Yan glanced at the outer city wall of Luojing. The city's defense formation of the Yu Dynasty's capital was useless. The Taoist protection of the protector of the country?
Wang Qiongju immediately took out a purse full of broken silver and copper coins and ran to check out.
Then the group used the method of shrinking the earth and went straight to the street outside a Taoist temple. Unlike the previous traffic jams, the entire wide white rice alley is now heavily guarded, and there are guards at both ends of the alley. During the retreat, the entire Luo Jingjing was talking a lot, especially the dignitaries who were relatively familiar with the affairs of the mountain, and they were looking forward to it. Could it be that our Yu Dynasty will have a Jade Pure Realm immortal? !
A beautiful woman in her thirties wearing a crown, wearing a jasper crown, stepping on a pair of green lotus and white lotus shoes, and holding a snow-white whisk.
She retracted her gaze from the post station outside the capital, and slowly walked down to the platform, which was the tallest building in the Taoist temple, and laid out a picture of Tai Chi with two kinds of beautiful jade.
It is the contemporary master of Jicuiguan, the real protector of the country in the Yu Dynasty, the national teacher Lv Bilong, whose Taoist name is "Full Moon".
Lu Bilong's figure disappeared in a flash, and she came to the door of the Taoist temple in an instant. She ordered the concierge Taoist priest to immediately open the middle door of the Taoist temple.
"Jicui watched Lu Bilong and met Donghaijun."
Lu Bilong walked down the steps, wearing a "Phoenix Marsh" robe, even when he saw a Donghai Sea Monarch with the highest rank in the Haoran world, a woman who was not at the Nascent Soul Realm. Guan, still with a calm expression, waved the dust and said with a smile in his heart: "I have received a secret letter from the master before, and I learned that you are coming to our temple, and you have been waiting for a long time, so I asked Your Majesty to mobilize the imperial guards in front of the palace to put the white rice. There is martial law near the alley, so as not to make too much noise near the Taoist temple.

Huang Man has the highest cultivation base in Huzhong, and always feels that the female national teacher in front of him is a bit weird, but it's just that it's weird, and I can't tell.
It's like it's missing a bit of humanity.
Wang Zhu narrowed his eyes.
Turned out to be a porcelain.
Wang Zhu stepped up the steps and said, "Let Yu Linyou and Huang Shanshou come here to meet me immediately."
Lu Bilong turned sideways and waited until Wang Zhu took the lead in stepping up the three steps, then followed, nodded and smiled, "Shui Jun wait a moment, I'll call someone over."
I saw the female crown took out an origami-made green kite from her sleeve, held the paper kite with her fingers together, put it to her mouth and whispered a sentence, the East Sea Lord came to Jicuiguan, and invited His Royal Highness and the general. Huang Shanshou came here to meet together.
Afterwards, Lu Bilong threw the blue paper kite into the air lightly.
The female crown led the group of foreign guests to an elegant room, took out a set of imperial tea sets, and Lu Bilong sat down on her knees and began to make tea.
Wang Zhu sat cross-legged, with one hand on his knee and his cheek supported, and he didn't bother to care about the female crown of the "dove occupying the magpie's nest" opposite, but turned his head to look out at the courtyard outside.
Gong Yan said with a heartfelt smile: "I heard that Huang Shanshou is a far-flung martial artist, only about forty years old, and he has no expert guidance. In just ten years, it has broken through the three realms."
Li Ba said: "A rare temple talent, the Yu Dynasty relies on him to support it. Confucianism is full of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust, and this popularity is very big."
Huang Shanshou was born in poverty and did not read much, so he joined the army when he was young. Back then, when one continent was in Lushen, Huang Shanshou did not flee to the secret realm of the Qingzhuan School with the old emperor of the Yu clan, but was surrounded by the army of demon clan. An elite light cavalry, fighting to support war, to a large extent involved the energy of a barbaric military tent. Once specially dispatched a Jade Pure Realm demon clan to kill this person, throwing bait and setting traps several times, Huang Shanshou seems to have an unpredictable battlefield intuition and never bites the bait until the end of the war between the two worlds. , The elite cavalry of Huangshan Shou has never stopped harassing the demon clan's garrisoned troops in various places of the Yu Dynasty.
Therefore, Wen Yu, the new deputy head of the Tianmu Academy, a Confucian upright gentleman with outstanding military exploits, once publicly commented that the military general Huang Shanshou, this person is the jade in the pit of the Yu Dynasty.
Wen Yu made no secret of his praise for Huangshanshou and his disgust for the Yu Dynasty.
Huang Man stretched out two fingers, gently twisted a strand of hair on his temples, and said with a smile: "This is the year of no confusion, and it has reached the point where there is no seal. This is not what the master of high power is."
Gong Yan sneered and said, "If it weren't for Wen Yu's words, and with the suspicious character of the old emperor of the Yu family, it is estimated that he would be able to retire within a few years of being a general."
As a result, Huang Shanshou did not come.
There was only one Prince of the Yu Dynasty, His Royal Highness.
Sitting next to Lv Bilong, Yu Linyou was apologetic, explaining that General Huang, in addition to being the abbot of a country's military affairs and holding the rank of Minister of Punishment, happened to have an emergency meeting involving all the important officials of the two government offices. Really can't get out of it.
Lu Bilong smiled but turned around and handed His Royal Highness a cup of hot tea.
It was difficult for Yu Linyou to help Huang Shanshou find such a reasonable excuse.
Wang Zhu still didn't turn his eyes away, staring at a dwarf tree in the courtyard, and said casually: "Since Huangshan Shou's shelf is so big, then please trouble your Yu Dynasty to give more honorary titles, such as Prince Taibao and so on. , let Huang Shanshou retire and return to his hometown. Anyway, the battle is over, and there is still a big general to do. It is better to return to the hometown, take a good rest, and study martial arts with heart. Maybe after 20 years, I can help you Yu The clan dynasty has an extra master who suppressed the martial arts movement."
Yu Linyou's face turned pale, his five fingers clenched the teacup tightly, and he was speechless.
Wang Zhu straightened up and turned his head to look at His Royal Highness, "Can't understand people's words?"
Yu Linyou said in a trembling voice: "General Huang is the mainstay of our Yu dynasty's country..."
Wang Zhu waved his hand, "Then I'll make it clearer, let you choose between the throne and Huangshan's birthday, anyway, when the old emperor dies, you can only have one appearance in the courtroom, or you, Yu Linyou. Sitting on the dragon chair, or Huang Shanshou will continue to stand at the head of the civil and military officials. This time I originally called you to come together, but it was just such a trivial matter. If you didn't come and Huang Shanshou came, I would Ask him if he is interested, change his surname, or he will resign and go into hiding."
Yu Linyou's mind was fluctuating, apparently caught in a battle between heaven and man.
Wang Zhu sneered: "Don't all say that the dragon son and grandson born in the emperor's family, but anyone who has the opportunity to sit on the dragon chair, let alone a man, even a woman, has a bit of an emperor's temperament? It's that simple. Do you still need to hesitate?"
Huang Man laughed heartily and said: "I thought Yu Linyou would be furious, and refused to do this with justice and righteousness. I would rather give up the throne and keep Huang Shanshou's official status."
Li Ba said indifferently: "Just wait and see, Yu Linyou will immediately secretly send a letter to Dafu Academy when he leaves Jicuiguan to complain to the Confucian Temple."
Gong Yan Yanran smiled and said, "I'm really not afraid of tearing my face with our Shuifu. If His Royal Highness is really involved in such a risky act, is it considered wealth and wealth at risk?"
Lu Bilong got up to say goodbye, and Yu Linyou left Jicuiguan in despair, with a heavy heart, sitting in the carriage without saying a word.
Gong Yan asked with a smile, "This is?"
Wang Zhu said casually: "Boring, just kidding."
Not like a joke.
Huang Man leaned back to the ground, his hands used as a pillow, and his legs swayed, "My Lord Shuijun, why bother, how wide the Confucian Academy is now, especially the Vice-Chancellor Wen of Tianmu Academy, He is a famous thorn, don't provoke this Wen Yu if you provoke anyone."
Wang Zhu said indifferently: "I am a passing guest of the Yu Dynasty, and I was fortunate to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at Jicuiguan. We talked very happily, drank a cup of tea, and made a personal suggestion. Yu Linyou will not accept it. , I can't tell how the Yu Dynasty will be, from now on, we will go our separate ways."
Huang Man is also unwilling to discuss this issue with Wang Zhu.
It's just that the high-ranking Master Shuijun has always done things like this, and if he thinks about it, he will come out. These ministers who support the dragon, just get used to it.
Teach her to "be a man"?
Don't forget, Wang Zhu is a genuine Ascension Realm cultivator, and the only real dragon in the world!
Only said that the Taoist name is "Qingzhong", the owner of Lushuikeng, Mrs. Tandan who is in charge of the land and water transportation of a world.
After this suddenly dignified ascension realm demon, after being proclaimed by the Confucian Temple Yasheng personally, the Taoist name "Qingzhong" was upgraded to the divine name above the golden and jade genealogy. On the side of Liu Rouxi, the king of Xihaihai with the divine name "Clear Water", Mrs. Tandan is actually quite a bit airy. Although everyone has the same rank and rank in the Confucian Temple, Mrs. Dandan is equivalent to standing on the top of the mountain. He was vaguely half a head taller than his colleagues, only when he saw Wang Zhu, he was like a maid who became a young lady who suddenly became rich, and saw the real lady again. But flattered.
In private, Huang Man and several servants of the water mansion guessed that the very old Mrs. Tan Dan had a handle on Wang Zhu's ancestors before the battle of beheading the dragon. After all, three thousand years ago, the unruly Long Jiao, Because they belonged to the heroes of the ancient battle of ascending the sky, they were able to occupy the water circulation of the entire vast world. In later generations, all the Qi practitioners who practiced the water method, no matter what their origins, were mountain spirits-water monsters, or human race Qi practitioners. The owner of the water transport, who walks the clouds and rains, often has to respect and avoid a few points.
Just about this matter, no one dared to ask Wang Zhu.
Dragons have reverse scales.
Absolutely.
Wang Zhu looked at the porcelain man who was completely indistinguishable from a real person, "Where is that real Lu Bilong hiding now?"
"Lu Bilong" smiled and said, "Reporting to Shuijun, the cultivator of Wanyao's genealogy whose real name is Longgong is drinking tea at Tianmu Academy now."
Huang Man's eyes lit up, and it was not too big to watch the fun. He sat up and asked curiously, "Is that the Wan Yao sect who owns the three mountains and blessed land? I remember that the sect master seems to be called Han Jiangshu. It is said that he is a very capable immortal, especially proficient. Together with the talisman, there are many killers."
Wang Zhu didn't care about an immortal cultivator. No matter how high his skills were, he was still just an immortal, a local snake in Tongye Continent.
Even if he is already a cultivator of Haoran Mountain in the Ascension Realm, Wang Zhu has few eyes now, he is both conceited and confident.
What's more, what if it is the Fourteenth Realm?
She can be too. And it won't be too long, this is the only reason why Wang Zhu is willing to be the Lord of Donghai Sea. In the future, when she retreats, she has an identity and can be more secure.
Her mortal enemy is only one person.
Sword repair Chen Qingliu.
On the way to the dragon slaying battle, Chen Qingliu once took a break in the Lushuikeng, and there was a mysterious sword refining that swallowed the East Sea.
Of course, Mrs. Tantan was forced by the situation and had no choice but to open the ban on the puddle, and "actively invited" the sword immortal to enter it.
It's just that Wang Zhu has now regained his status as a real dragon. What are your so-called hardships as a last resort?
In addition, Mrs. Tan Dan is different from Li Yehou and Liu Rouxi. She was born from a demon clan and practiced the water method. Therefore, she was born and restrained by the real dragon.
But it doesn't matter, except for Wang Zhu, and during the last discussion in the Confucian Temple, I met a few "chat" people who were enlightened.
Long Zhenren, Fu Lu Yuxuan, and Longhushan Great Celestial Master Zhao Tianlai made Madam Dandan tremble. Besides, she was now in the Middle Earth and Divine Continent, and every time she went out to inspect the territory, she was still very majestic.
It's just that beyond this, there is still an unwarranted disaster that made Mrs. Tandan dumb to eat Huanglian, making her more and more unable to speak hard words on Wang Zhu's side.
In the past, Taoist ancestors planted gourd vines and produced seven "sword-raising gourds".
In the Taoist temple of Donghaiguan, the fire-burning boy of the master of Bixiao cave has a "Dou Liang", the golden gourd, which is slanted behind by the small Taoist boy.
This stinky bull-nosed old Taoist, before going to the Qingming World, did a major event that had far-reaching influence on Haoran water transportation. This was also the thing that Wang Zhu was most resentful about, because the old Guanzhu issued a decree to let that Taoist Tong carried the "Douliang" gourd, or invited or caught, and put almost all the East Sea Flood Dragons into that gourd. This was also the Dragon Resting Stone under the name of Lushuikeng, the reason why there was not a single dragon resting a few years ago.
In addition, the old Taoist used the means of magic to reach the sky, the sea level was inclined, the northwest was high and the southeast was low, pouring into the "dou volume".
According to Wang Zhu's estimation, this stinky old man has taken away at least 10% of the water transport in the entire vast world.
But on the side of the Confucian Temple, from the beginning to the end, it did not stop this matter.
The water transport in the Qingming world was originally thin, and it was far inferior to the vast world. If the old man poured out the seawater in the gourd over there, the Qingming world could increase the water transport by 30%.
Mrs. Tandan thought that the old Taoist priest of the Taoist Temple in the East China Sea, what did it have to do with me?
However, Wang Zhu asked her why she didn't stop him on the ferry that was going to the barren world through Guixu.
Mrs. Tandan almost didn't collapse on the spot, but she felt that she was full of bitterness and did not dare to sway. My little aunt, you made me a cultivator of the Ascension Realm, how could you stop a Fourteen Realm who likes to be full and support his arm wrestling with Daozu?
Wang Zhu stood up, walked out of the house, and looked up at the sky.
It's about to usher in a new three-religion debate.
On this side of the vast world, the gods of the Five Sacred Mountains in the Middle Earth and the four seas are all eligible to participate in the audition.
The dispute between the three religions, sit and discuss the Tao.
The Haoran Confucian Temple, the Western Buddhist country, and the Qingming World Baiyujing will each send gentlemen, sages, Taoists and Buddhists to participate in the debate.
On the Confucian side, the young mountain chief of Hengqu Academy, the closed disciple of Yasheng, Yuan Xu, will definitely participate.
In the Qingming world, most of the disciples of Taoist ancestors and the young Taoist priest with the Taoist name Shanqing will also participate.
The number of people who can participate in the Daoism of the three religions generally ranges from three to nine, and there is no set rule.
This "quarrel" is not a group fight. The number of people is not important. Even in the long history of the three religions debate, it has been proved that a large number of people is useless.
However, only one person was dispatched, which is also very rare. In the past ten thousand years, there have been only three times.
The last two times.
Once, Qingming Tiantian sent Lu Chen, who left his hometown, and later Bai Yujing was the third headmaster.
In that debate, Lu Chen spoke first, and then no one spoke. The "scholars" and monks of the other two sects conceded defeat directly.
Once, the Confucian Temple let an unknown scholar who had only the reputation of "scholar" to participate in the debate. This person was the later Confucian scholar.
In this debate, the scholar surnamed Xun finally spoke, and as a result, many Taoists and Buddhist disciples turned to Confucianism.
Therefore, the high-ranking landscape gods and top sects who have been reported by the Confucian Temple today all have a common guess.
For example, at the Confucian Temple, will the closed disciple of the old scholar be allowed to participate in this debate?
A slender and highly respected Shanjun, and a thin old scholar, just stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
The height difference between the two sides is huge, and their heads are one head apart, so the old Xiucai stood on tiptoe, with two pots of green iris under his arm.
Bah, is this called stealing? It's called grabbing.
The of Jiuyi Mountain, his real name is Ning Yuan, his Taoist name is Yuguan, and his divine name is Cangwu.
Ning Yuan stopped the Wensheng from going and said with a stern face, "Do you think it's suitable for you?"
"I think it's appropriate."
The old Xiucai nodded and said: "If you ask me to take another pot, it will be really inappropriate if you can't spare it. Brother Cangwu, don't pay attention to it. Whoever we are with depends on our relationship. Treat those vain heads, be polite to me, no offense, two pots of calamus are enough."
Ning Yuan's face darkened, "The surname is Xun, you can almost get it, my temper is not much better than Suishan Zhouyou."
After drinking and chatting well just now, the old Xiucai said goodbye and left. As a result, the head of the Wenyun Division hurried over and said that Mr. Wensheng took two pots of Wenyun calamus, and swaggered out of the garden. See you all the way. People say that it was given by you, Mr. Shan.
The old Xiucai thought for a while, and began to understand and reason with his emotions, "Cangwu, you can't be a man without a conscience, talk about it yourself, this is the best book in Jiuyi Mountain. Where did you come from? Huh?"
There are many monuments and monuments in Jiuyi Mountain. Among the countless famous mountains, it is only inferior to Zhongyue Sui Mountain.
Moreover, Bai Ye never left a poem on the cliff in Sui Mountain, but he wrote several poems at a time in Jiuyi Mountain, just because Bai Ye once climbed the mountain with Liu Shiliu. It is said that under Liu Shiliu's suggestion, Bai Ye It is so generous with pen and ink and talent. And the reason why Liu Shiliu is like this is that Cang Wu, the of Jiuyi Mountain, not only highly praised the master's knowledge, but most importantly, the master had personally leaked something, saying that this Ning Yuan was very insightful and praised himself as a He is a very hard-working person, so his articles are the most ancient, which is nothing. Now that Mr. is a little famous, such good words can be picked up everywhere on the street. However, Ning Yuan's opinion is worth chewing. He said that my old scholar's articles, such as the sun, the moon, the stars, the latitude and the latitude, the world, and the world, are all known to admire their wisdom. Your disciple, the embroidered tiger Cui Yize Otherwise, the Dao is like the vitality, walking in chaos, and all things come from it and do not know it.
Mr. is always like this, never mind that others praise his students, even if the evaluation is even higher than himself.
You can praise me, the old scholar, and be happy. Whoever takes it seriously is an idiot, but if anyone praises my students and speaks sincerity, then my old scholar will take it seriously!
Ning Yuan said helplessly: "Anyway, keep a pot."
The old show just burped.
Ning Yuan said in a muffled voice: "It's a big deal, I'll change a pot for you. It's less than three thousand years, and there are two thousand years."
In fact, the of Jiuyi Mountain, the last time Wensheng restored the Confucian Temple, he went to the Gongde Forest to congratulate him, and he sent a pot of Wenyun calamus for thousands of years. In the officialdom, there are some concerns, otherwise, because of Ning Yuan's personal friendship with the old scholar, it would not be a problem to give away a pot of 3,000-year-old calamus at that time. This is the same as the Yamashita market package money. If congratulations to guests of similar family background, if they are all red envelopes of one tael, and there is a person who insists on paying 10 taels, it is a slap in the face of others.
On the other hand, the Yanzhi Mountain female monarch did not have these taboos, and the gift she gave was the most valuable at that time, and she had her own reasons for it.
The old Xiucai complained: "The wine table is afraid of persuading people to drink, and being a person is afraid of being stingy. What a bold-hearted brother Cangwu in my impression, if you are twitching today, I will look down on you!"
Cangwu God smiled angrily: "Before you didn't let your beloved disciple climb the mountain, it's just that outsiders don't know the truth. They think I'm putting on airs. Why are you pretending to be stupid with me?"

The old Xiucai is so troubled. In the end, he is still angry and protects the calf unreasonably. Previously, Jiuyi Mountain did not let Chen Ping'an climb the mountain.
The old Xiucai wondered, "What's the truth?"
"Don't ask me what you know."
The old Xiucai said angrily: "If you insist on saying that, I won't be happy to listen to it. Let me have a good chat with you."
"It's the meaning of the most holy teacher, don't play stupid with me."
"Then you call the most holy master over, I will confront the old man face to face and check the truth!"
Cang Wu smiled wryly, is there such a rogue as you?
As a result, someone pressed the shoulder of the old Xiucai, "How to confront, talk about it."
The old scholar turned his head to look, oh, it is the most holy teacher.
With a tilt of his shoulders and a twist of his toes, the old scholar turned around and stood beside the most holy master, with two pots of iris under his arm, and said seriously, "God Cangwu wants to give me three pots of iris, I said no. Cangwu supernatural power is not happy anymore, blocking the way and not letting me go..."
Ning Yuan bowed and saluted with the most holy teacher.
The most holy master smiled and nodded in greeting, and moved first, and the old Xiucai immediately followed.
Ning Yuan hesitated for a moment, then the old Xiucai turned his head and winked at him, don't stick there, keep up.
The most holy teacher said: "Are there any plans?"
The old show was embarrassed and said, "Forget it."
The most holy teacher smiled and said: "You have self-knowledge."
Chen Ping'an was not recommended to participate in the Three Teachings debate.
The old Xiucai said: "After all, he is still young, and he is busy now. Here in the Confucian Temple, don't always bother people."
As he said that, he handed over two pots of calamus to God Lord Cangwu, saying that he would help hold them first.
The old Xiucai rolled up his two sleeves and put on a fighting stance, "It's really not good, if you have to win, let me come."
Cang Wu’s face was full of doubts. The debate about the three religions is a matter of rules, and those who have attained the fruit of Taoism are not allowed to participate in the debate.
In the end, I only heard the old Xiucai say: "Anyway, it is not the first time to remove the position. When I win the fight, I will move back."
Ning Yuan took a deep breath.
Even the most holy teachers are too lazy to talk.
The old Xiucai sighed, "In the colorful world, I talked to the little monk twice. It is true that Buddhism is profound. I think that the younger generation of scholars in Haoran world, no one can quarrel with him."
The most holy teacher said: "What if Li Xisheng would participate in the debate."
The old Xiucai touched his chin and gave a fair sentence, "Compared to the kind of guaranteed victory I participated in the debate, it is slightly inferior."
The most holy teacher smiled and said, "You accompany me to Shaozhou."
The old scholar suddenly grabbed the arm of the most holy teacher, "No hurry, no hurry, go later."
The Holy Master patted the back of the old scholar's hand and signaled to let go.
It doesn't matter, it doesn't work at all.
The most holy master raised his hand and slapped it down.
The old Xiucai still did not let go, but instead increased his strength.
In ancient music there is "Shao", and the Master said that it is all beautiful, and it is also perfect.
The most holy master said angrily: "Xun, don't force me to curse."
The old Xiucai let go of his hand, his face full of sadness, and muttered: "Scholars in the world, we scholars, never need a tall clay statue, we need someone to look at all the mistakes and corrections of our scholars!"
The most holy teacher smiled and said: "The future is terrible, how can I know that the one who comes is not now."
The old Xiucai rubbed his chin, nodded and whispered: "I've won the prize, I'm embarrassed, but I can't let Li Sheng and Ya Sheng listen."
Then God Lord Cangwu heard a sentence from the most holy master... The Three Character Classic.
This seems to be the first time Chen Pingan has set foot in this state city of Chuzhou.
Chuzhou, Baoxi County and Pingnan County, the prefecture and county seat are in the same city, among which Baoxi County Government Ya, the list is black and gold.
At first glance, it is the handwriting of the Tianshui Zhao family owner, regular script, with a little bit of ancient stele charm.
At first glance, it is strict and meticulous, but if you look closely, there is freedom in the rules.
Chen Ping'an came to see a friend whom he had not known for a long time, Jing Kuan, the new governor of Baoxi County, and Shi Langzhong, the former Qing official of the Ministry of Officials in the capital.
Friends of friends may not be able to become friends, but Chen Pingan feels honored to be friends with a real scholar like Jing Kuan.
Nowadays, the officialdoms of Xinchuzhou, the big and small government offices, do not have access control. As for the origin of this tradition, there are two theories. One is from Yuan Zhengding's Longquan County prefect government, and it is also said that it was originally from Cao Gengxin's tenure in office. The kiln inspection and manufacturing office began. According to the drunkard’s supervision, the people of the small town would just stroll around as long as they did not come to the supervision and manufacturing office to dry the millet, and the officials had nowhere to go. It is also negotiable! Once a child's broken paper kite fell into the government office, and Cao Duzao sent it to the house himself, but some people said that it was because the little baby wearing open crotch pants had a sister who was very handsome. Cao Duzao The drunkard's intention is not the wine.
An official like Cao Duzao did not seem to have left many Qingming political achievements worthy of writing in the county annals, but perhaps to the people of the small town, the impression of Dali officials was one more, and Impression is good. In short, after that, the top and bottom worked, starting from Huaihuang County Office, and over time, it became a customary official rule in the entire old Longzhou, and Wei Li, the prefect, had no objection to this.
Just because you can enter the yamen casually does not mean that you can casually visit the yamen's office.
Knowing that it was Lord Chen Shanzhu from Luopao Mountain who came to visit, someone immediately notified Master Jing.
The pile of books and books made people busy. Jing Kuan, who was wearing a public uniform, rubbed his eyes, put down an official document in his hand about the defense of rivers and canals within the jurisdiction, and quickly walked out of the office of the government office. When he saw Chen Ping'an, the county Lord Shou just clasped his fists and didn't say any polite words, but the smile on his face was not too small.
Chen Ping'an raised his hands and joked: "I came to the top of the mountain with empty hands. When I turn back to Lord Jing to go to Luopo Mountain to drink, I will punish myself for three cups first."
Jing Kuan quickly waved his hand and said: "It's no problem to go to Luopo Mountain to sit and drink tea. It's good to drink tea. Don't mention drinking to me now, Mr. Chen. Last time I was in Changpu River, it was choking. I can smell alcohol now. It's a headache."
Chen Ping'an said, "I'm just here to hang out, so I won't delay Brother Jing's business, right?"
Jing Kuan said: "To be polite, as a county official, today I hang out with Mr. Chen all day long, and it's all official business. But let's be honest, the government office is not very good at hospitality, and it takes two quarters of an hour to sneak around. Not a problem at all.

Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "Then take me around the government office? Two quarters of an hour is enough."
Jing Kuanxiao had an accident, but this is nothing, it is not an exception. To be honest, no matter how many identities Mr. Chen has, his background is still a Confucian student.
Although the two sides had only met twice and drank a meal, Jing Kuan was very sure of his feeling.
After that, Jing Kuan took Chen Ping'an to visit many public houses of a government office. Along the way, Chen Ping'an also asked about many details such as schools, ceremonies, and delivery. Fortunately, Jing Kuan was a very diligent, like and good at it. Officials who investigate trivial details may not be able to answer those tricky questions on the spot. As soon as I asked and answered, the two quarters of time passed quickly. Chen Ping'an also visited a government office, so he said goodbye and left, only to invite Brother Jing to go to Luopao Mountain for a drink in his spare time, he came
Cook by yourself, do not persuade you to drink at the table. Next, I asked Pingnan County, now the first county of Baoxi County, if the new magistrate was called Fu Hu, from the Post Post Office under the jurisdiction of the Department of Vehicles and Drivers of the Beijing Military Department. Jing Kuan nodded and said yes, and also said that this person was the younger brother of Fu Yu, the former chief of Baoxi County, because the county seat was in the same city, Jing Kuan often met with this subordinate, but for the time being, he could not see the government of the chief county chief. pros and cons.
Chen Pingan left the government office and took up the post of Fu Yu, the prefect of Baoxi County. He was a son of a family in the capital. He was the first to come to a small town with Wu Yuan. He was the first official to enter the world of Lizhu Cave. Zhan Shi Yuan is the young master of Zhan Shi Yuan, who is in charge of Zuo Chunfang, and is a first-class official.
It is a pity that Fu Yu was not a scholar in the field of science, and the Hanlin Academy has never put a seed brother into the battlefield like Liu Xunmei. The lack of these two kinds of resumes will be a major obstacle to Fu Yu's future promotion.
In Pingnan County, there is a meandering river crossing the border. There are boats on the river punting boats to fish. When bamboo shoots are drawn in the mountains, the spring rises and adds water.
Today, Fu Hu had just finished an official business, and was not in a hurry to return to the county office, so he let a few assistant officials and subordinates go home first, and sat alone by the river to start fishing.
The elder brother, Fu Yu, was just one year older than Fu Hu. The eldest brother is the father, and Fu Yu has a smooth career in his career, so Fu Hu is very afraid of this elder brother who is always unsmiling.
After all, the leader of the Good News Office is only a seventh-ranking person, and he is also a small yamen without real power. Compared with the Nanxunfang, which is full of Langzhong, it is one day and one place.
Fu Hu held a pole in one hand and a suet jade handle in the other hand, rubbing lightly with the palm of his hand.
This time, I went to Beijing to serve as an official and left the chinstrap alley that I thought I would stay for a few more years. It belongs to Ping Tiao, but Chuzhou is originally Shangzhou of Dali, and Pingnan County belongs to Shangxian County of Dali Dynasty. To be the parent officer of this county is of course a matter of reuse. Fu Hu and the magistrate of Huaihuang County, even when they went to the governor's mansion and talked to several prefects, could be louder. When the official document was delivered to the Good News Office, Fu Hu, who was living leisurely there, was confused. At first, he mistakenly thought it was his father or elder brother Fu Yu. He secretly worked hard to help with the operation, and only got such a place. Real shortage.
As a result, after having a New Year's Eve dinner and staying up all night with Fu Yu to watch the new year, Fu Hu summoned the courage to take the initiative to ask about the matter, but his brother shook his head and said that it was not his and his family's actions. Without this ability, with a few words, you can decide a candidate for the county magistrate of Da Lishang. In the end, Fu Hu was confused and came to Pingnan County, the prefecture, to take office, with many mountains and bamboo forests under his jurisdiction.
Out of the corner of Fu Hu's eyes, he caught a glimpse of a man in a blue shirt with a hosta on his head. He was carrying a fishing rod and a fish basket around his waist. He came slowly. The other party picked an adjacent fishing spot. As a connoisseur, Fu Hu doesn't care about this. The world's fishermen are one family, as long as this guy doesn't get jealous of his catch, he just throws rocks in the water. It seems that the other party is half a bucket of water. After throwing the rod and baiting for a long time, no fish has been hooked. The main reason is that he was a little anxious when he raised the rod a few times. Hu squatted here, craned his neck and glanced at the fish basket, and then looked at Fu Hu, both of them understood, they understood it instantly, and nodded each other without talking nonsense. Take out a few fish and give them to this fellow who met by chance but is not very good at fishing.
In this way, you can go home and be less scolded. After all, as long as you don't come home empty-handed, you can still blame the fish for being in a bad mood, which has little to do with your fishing skills.
The man began to look for words, "Brother, you are very particular about tying the fishing line. I haven't seen it before. From the beginning, it was a big herring that weighed 30 to 50 kilograms?"
Fu Hu smiled and said, "Want to learn?"
The man nodded and said, "As long as my brother is willing to teach, I will learn."
Fu Hu simply closed the rod and explained the tricks of the knot with this person in detail.
Fu Hu then threw the rod into the water again, and found that this guy didn't want to go back and continue fishing, so he couldn't help but smile and asked, "Brother, don't worry, I'll rewind the rod later, and I'll let you pick two bigger tails. Yu, what kind of thing do you keep staring at me like that, afraid that I will run away with the fish basket? Not really."
The man squatting beside him smiled and said, "There are three realms in fishing. I like to fish, but I can't catch fish. Every time I fish, I always get a reward. You can't ask for it, it depends on the talent of the fisherman."
Fu Hu smiled and said: "Oh? There is a higher realm? How to say it, brother, please talk about it."
The man said solemnly: "Rather than fishing, I prefer watching people fishing."
Fu Hu gave a thumbs up, laughed and said, "Being around the bush, it turns out to be bragging, my brother can do it."
The children of the capital, there are those who are arrogant and arrogant, and there are those who are like Fu Hu. In Fu Hu's words, they just rely on their ancestors to make a living, and they only make fun of ordinary people all day long and lose their share.
The man asked, "Listen to my brother's accent, it's not like our locals."
Fu Hu nodded and said, "He came from the capital, doing some small business, eating and waiting to die. What about you, brother, where are you from?"
"From Huaihuang County, come here to visit relatives."
"Huaihuang County? It's not too close to our Pingnan County."
"It's nothing. I used to be a kiln worker, and I often went up the mountain to chop wood and burn charcoal. I walked these few steps without breathing."
Fu Hu smiled and said, "Brother chatting is better than fishing."
That person is also a good-natured person, and when he was ridiculed, he squatted there foolishly.
Fu Hu felt that this buddy could handle it.
Fu Hu asked, "My surname is Fu, Master Longyao's Fu, where's my brother?"
The man smiled and replied, "My surname is Chen, Erdong Chen."
Fu Hu's family background is not good enough for him to have family retinues. The family worship is naturally there, but where can he get Fu Hu, even his elder brother Fu Yu, except for long trips, he is usually not in the capital. He would follow a Qi trainer every day. Besides, in this state, Fu Hu was also a seventh-rank official, so what was he afraid of?
That being the case, what kind of arrogance is it, the people who are really qualified to walk sideways are Cao Gengxin and Liu Xunmei. They care about Chi Lane and Chi'er Street. As for Fu Hu, as long as it is a job that can kill time, such as fishing, and pigeon whistle, Fu Hu likes it, and it is typical of not doing a proper job.
Chen Ping'an said: "We are in Chuzhou, which is a good place to be promoted easily. The older generation said that there are enough officials here, they can produce high-ranking officials, and they have a good reputation. "
Fu Hu pouted, "It's said that the old Longzhou, now the new Chuzhou, officials at all levels are shrewd and capable. If you want me to see it, it's true, huh."
Chen Pingan smiled and said, "That's it?"
Fu Hu waved his hand, "Don't talk about this, brother, you common man, I'm a businessman covered in copper stench, why don't you just have enough to eat and support yourself."
Chen Ping'an said: "I guess what Brother Fu is saying is that officials at all levels in Chuzhou are too good at being an official? Do you take being an official too seriously in your bones? He also does things, and he does it better than other officials. , it's just that the official flavor is heavy, and the official authority in the bones is so powerful that people always feel that something is wrong, um, just like the fishing line that Brother Fu taught me to tie the knots, which are interlocked."
Fu Hu turned his head to look at the man who was visiting relatives. He had slightly white hair and looked young, so it was not easy to determine his true age. Fu Hu smiled and said casually, "Probably not, and I can't do it. Good luck to the official, right?"
Chen Ping'an nodded, "Brother Fu can think so, it's a pity not to be a county magistrate."
Fu Hu hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Chen, we have a good relationship, so I'll get to the bottom of it with you, and I just lied to you. In fact, I was a clerk in the county government's gate, and the people of the capital didn't lie to you. , the last errand was in a place called Yiyoujiebao, sitting on a cold bench, I have never heard of it, bro The yamen can hear it. The biggest official hat is the seventh grade, the sesame official mentioned in the play."
It's not taboo to make deep conversations.
Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "Brother Fu's speech is also funny, and his fishing skills are generally good."
Fu Hu said lazily: "Being a good official, I don't dare to expect too much. When I am an honest official, I dare to say it with my conscience."
But then the local people surnamed Chen said something that made Fu Hu's scalp go numb.
Just listening to the man's calm expression, looking at the river, he said, "The merits and demerits are divided, and Wei Li, the prefect, is actually dereliction of duty. It is not a matter, but an education. , arresting thieves, river channels and other matters, Wei Li, as the chief official of a state, of course has to manage it well. Responsibilities, this is precisely what the capital inspection plan and local evaluation cannot be specifically quantified. It may be possible to see some clues through the addition of several disciplines and jinshi in one state, but it is still far from enough. The county governor seems to be a An official who is close to the people is actually not the case. As a senior official of the frontier, the governor is not a big deal. At the end of the year, he does not see many ordinary people. Although his responsibility lies in supervising, leading, coordinating, and reconciling, he is only a court official. Officials run from top to bottom, and officials at the three levels of the state, county, and county can’t take it easy. Everyone only works being an official. Otherwise, if I look at it, a government office with more capable and fast-running officials is hidden. , The better the ability to cover up mistakes, the more unknowing, the people are wronged in the place where the officials are arrogant, at least everyone knows that they are wronged, and when others see it, their hearts are like a mirror. But in this prefecture, or in the future prefecture, it's hard to say. For example, if a car is driving across the road, someone will follow behind the car to help smooth the traces. If the chief official does not want to be known, people will not know it. The imperial palace above, The people below will not know that only officials, colleagues, and superiors and subordinates have a tacit understanding. Just like you and I just looked at each other, you will know what the 'rules' are. So I can assert that if the future Dali court , is a larger Chuzhou officialdom, which is very problematic. In this matter, the former prefect Wei Li left an invisible mess to Wu Yuan. "
Fu Hu was speechless.
What shocked him was not that the other party called Wei Li and Wu Yuan one by one, calling them by their first names, or even their opinions.
To be honest, in official circles in the capital, it is said that the good news office where he is the number one, in private, who is not speaking, shut the door and scolding a few books of the six books. The smaller the yamen, the more trustworthy colleagues there are every day. He, Fu Hu, especially liked to talk about this with that stuffy gourd Lin Zhengcheng.
So what really shocked Fu Hu was that this person's remarks happened to hit on one of Fu Hu's thoughts, and finally let him understand what was wrong.
Not long ago, an official in charge of culture and education in the provincial governor's office called out all the county's educational ordinances in the prefectures and counties in Shangzhou, roughly meaning that the governor attaches great importance to this matter, and made a special trip to spare the whole afternoon to invite everyone to go to the office to chat Talking to each other, Lord Prefect said that everyone can speak freely, talk more about questions, give more opinions, and talk more about dissatisfaction... These are nothing, but what made Fu Hu, who was also present at the time, feel awkward the most was that official, Lin Lin. I said that such opportunities are not common in other places in previous years. All of you are scholars, you should cherish this opportunity. I was fortunate to meet the Governor, and my words should be as concise and to the point as possible. Lord Prefect is busy with official business...
Fu Hu did not doubt the intentions of the fifth-rank local official, and there was definitely no malicious intent, but it was precisely the "official flavor" of the other party, the kind of official atmosphere that naturally felt that official rank and rank were everything. In the capital, he was accustomed to seeing the nobles of the imperial court and the majesty of high officials, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
After finally regaining his senses, Fu Hu smiled bitterly and said, "Mother, Brother Chen, don't talk nonsense like this, just say it, it's just the two of us here, even if you said I've heard it before, Pretend nothing happened, and don't spread the word!"
You are a "common man", you can take it seriously, and I don't care whether you are more daring and more ambitious, or whether you like to talk about it after reading a few books.
But I, Fu Hu, are a serious county magistrate anyway. Although I certainly won't be convicted for my words, but after being listened to by my colleagues in the officialdom, I can't be wearing shoes all year round?
Seeing that man smile, Fu Hu felt more and more beating drums in his heart. Could it be that he was on the mountain? After all, in this state, there are indeed many immortals practicing Taoism on the mountain.
Fu Hu said, "Speaking of which, Brother Chen, I'll take your knowledge and courage. If you are going to be an official, you must be a county magistrate. You have to start with the government!"
Chen Pingan smiled and said, "Brother Fu's vision is better than his fishing skills."
Fu Hu was overjoyed, no longer so tense.
Next, I saw the man squatting with his hands in his sleeves, and said softly, "Brother Fu, I don't think this is right, it's far from good enough, what do you think?"
Fu Hu sighed, "Brother Chen, are you still here?! Then I really have to persuade you!"
The man took the initiative to answer: "Don't worry about eating radishes? In front of ordinary people, with the mind of an upright official in the court?"
Fu Hu burst out laughing, stretched out his hand and patted the man's shoulder, "It's good to know, it's good to know."
"Brother Fu, have you ever heard of Mr. Nanfeng?"
Fu Hu shook his head, he didn't like to read miscellaneous books when he was a child, and dealing with those classics in the field was already tiring enough.
"Then I recommend a few articles of this old gentleman to you. I think you will like them. "The Relief of Zhao Gong of Yuezhou" and "The History of Yihuang County", I think these are the best moral articles in the world, of course. , this is just my personal opinion."
Fu Hu said helplessly, "Alright, alright, I'll look it up when I have time."
Why are you being serious with me?
The next person surnamed Chen was very welcome. He picked up Fu Hu's fish basket and started "moving fish".
Well, it is estimated that he is a poor scholar who is relatively unlucky in the imperial examination, a sour scholar?
Thanks to myself, I felt that the other party was a cultivator on the mountain.
Fu Hu couldn't help but joked: "Brother Chen, Lord Wei is now a high-ranking official in the capital, and the new governor, Lord Wu, is even more powerful. If you have the opportunity to see them in the future, do you dare to say these words in person?"
The man with the long coat and cloth shoes had already walked to his position, holding a fishing rod, tied the fish basket around his waist, and said with a smile, "That is to say, it is a pleasure for us to squat and chat."
"Instead of Wei Li and Wu Yuan, I will sit and talk about these principles, and they have to stand and listen."
Hearing that, Fu Hu was speechless again and gave the guy a thumbs up.
Good guy, you are so arrogant, your surname is Chen, why isn't it called Chen Ping'an? !
Speaking of this, I, Fu Hu, are convinced, but Brother Chen, you are higher.
"Brother Fu is welcome to visit Luopao Mountain. My family has a Yellow Lake Mountain and the fish are bigger."
The man waved goodbye to Fu Hu and said with a smile, "By the way, my name is Chen Ping'an, Er Dong Chen, Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping."
