Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 315 314. Floating Clouds
"What time is it?"

In the silent room, there was a tired voice.

Xuan Suning, who was sitting on the futon, didn't even open his eyes, and continued to maintain the appearance of sitting down with a dust whisk in his hands, and said softly:
"It's halfway through the Yin hour."

For future generations, it is equivalent to around 4 o'clock in the morning. After falling into the ears of the woman who got up slowly, it was a strange sense of satisfaction under the face without makeup.

With that sense of satisfaction, she sat on the bed in a daze for about five breaths, and asked again:

"What time did I sleep?"

"Haizi's friend."

"...Two and a half hours?"

"Ah."

"……call."

She let out a long breath, not knowing whether it was satisfaction or what it meant, she got up and said:

"It's about time. The gates of the city opened early today. I think all the civil and military officials will go out at this time. How are you doing?"

"You just go."

Seeing that the No. [-] Taoist priest in the world didn't seem to get up to see him off, Lord Huqiu was not surprised, nodded and said:

"Then see you at Longmen Mountain."

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave the house.But just after taking two steps, the footsteps suddenly stopped.

Did not look back.

Just one sentence resounded in the room:
"Today, be optimistic about that Taoist."

"..."

"Don't let him mess up my situation."

After the silent female Taoist heard the latter sentence, her eyes fell on her back.

Although it was only a mere two and a half hours, her shoulders seemed to be much, much easier than yesterday.

So, nodding:
"it is good."

"Ah."

The door opened, and the woman floated out.

He stretched out his hand to grab it, and a handful of snow flew from mid-air.He has a delicate appearance, but his movements are somewhat rough and military.Rubbing the snow on her face, her white and reddish hands casually brushed her hair.After the hair is completely tied into a bun, after a few steps, the face is already covered by a bamboo hat.

He walked out of Jingzhen Palace with ease, but found that Xue Rulong was already waiting at the gate of the mountain.

"grown ups."

"Well, when did you come?"

"...just here."

Hearing this, Master Huqiu's eyes fell on the piece of frost on his neckline.

It's definitely not too long to come.

But she didn't poke it, and nodded:

"Let's go, can you take the official uniform?"

"Take it. My lord is going to..."

Xue Rulong looked in the direction of Jingzhen Palace.

But Master Huqiu shook his head:

"Change in the car, let's go."

"Yes."

Within a few breaths, the figures of the two had arrived at the foot of the mountain.After Mr. Huqiu boarded the carriage, Xue Rulong drove the carriage and rolled away.

Longmen Mountain is on the other side of the river. Although it is across the water from Xiangshan Mountain, but Yique is not frozen, so the car cannot go directly to the opposite side.It is necessary to detour for a while and cross a stone bridge above the Fengshui Longmen, which is the jade belt of the gods.

Not far, probably less than two miles.

And when the carriage walked along the auspicious animal road that looked like a hanged ghost, and came all the way to the branch road leading to Longmen Mountain and Luoyang City, Xue Rulong seemed to have noticed something, and his eyes narrowed.

In the direction of Luoyang City, a Taoist is riding an old horse, walking this way.

There are about a hundred steps between the two sides.

It is not yet dawn at this moment, so ordinary people can't see clearly.

But put it to Xue Rulong... He can see it clearly.

But he didn't say much. He controlled the carriage, as if he didn't know him, and turned to another direction.

He even controlled the carriage to speed up a bit.

After walking more than a hundred meters all the way, a voice sounded from inside the car:
"Okay, everyone is gone, you can run faster and fly to Longmen Mountain."

"..."

The man slowed down the speed of the car and remained silent.

……

Xue Rulong saw Li Zhen, but Li Zhen didn't see Xue Rulong.

Or rather, he didn't open his eyes at all.

As the saying goes, if you sharpen your guns before the battle, you will be happy if you are unhappy.

Although he seemed to be riding a horse, his mind was actually immersed in thinking.

The appearance of the two protectors Yan Daxia + Yang Laoqi gave him more changes in the combination.

He has been focusing on these "possibilities".

Today's New Year's Eve banquet is definitely not a simple New Year's celebration.

Although he didn't pretend that this banquet was going to be a big hit or something, that's bullshit.But I was afraid that the plan would not be able to keep up with the changes. If something happened... at least he should not be so hasty.

Therefore, regarding the carriage, Li Laodao didn't take it to heart at all.

The old horse knows the way.

After running for several days, the old horse seemed to know the way to Xiangshan.

He didn't need to say anything, just trotted all the way to Xiangshan.

When he reached the foot of the mountain, he came back to his senses.But this time I didn't put the old horse at the bottom of the mountain, but planned to put it in the small forest yesterday.

Who knew that this idiot turned out to be a person who remembers eating and beating.

I suffered from the cold all day yesterday, so I don’t want to go today.

Pulling his neck and fighting with Li Zhen.

Li Zhen couldn't laugh or cry, and just raised his fist to "persuade" the old horse who knows current affairs to be a hero.As a result, the eyes of one person and one horse suddenly blurred...

"...I have met the teacher after learning."

Beside the stables of the Taoist Palace, Li Zhen hurriedly saluted Xuan Suning who was standing quietly.

The female Taoist nodded:

"Well, in the future, leave your horse here. You just need to clean up the horse manure from time to time."

"puff……"

Listening to this movement, it seems that the old horse is happy.

"Thank you teacher."

Accompanied by the Taoist's thanks, the female Taoist who is still wearing the black and white robe today held a whisk and said:
"Let's set off at dawn. Today's sacrifice is in charge of the national teacher. You and I are not in charge, and second, we don't need to protect you. You just need to watch. Don't talk too much, and don't act rashly, understand?"

"..."

Li Zhen could tell that there was something in Gao Gong's words.

He saluted respectfully:
"Later learners will know."

"Ah."

Seeing that he agreed, Xuan Suning went back to the backyard.

Li Zhen, who had nothing to do, was left behind.

He didn't run around. Although the stables in Jingzhen Palace are not big, their specifications and grades are all at the royal level.Obviously, at the beginning of construction, the royal people gave her enough courtesy.

He closed the door of the stable and fetched another basin of water for the old horse.At the same time, he unpacked a bundle of neat fodder to spread the old horse's trough, and spread some in the stable, so that it could sleep and eat whenever it wanted.

At the same time, when adding materials to the trough, he also found a little "wrong".

Or "history".

I don't know what kind of stone the food bowl and trough are made of.

In this cold weather, it feels warm to the touch...

very different from the surrounding temperature.

I think the water will definitely not freeze if it is put in here.

neither scientific...

And some are emotional.

It's amazing.

With all the emotions, after he arranged the old horse, he went directly to the Dao Palace.

In the empty Taoist palace, only the ever-burning candles were burning quietly.

Two rows of candles, he carried the oil pot, and after adding the candles one by one, the sky was already bright.

Xuan Suning came to the gate of the Taoist Palace from the backyard.

Li Zhen, who was about to take a break, hurriedly leaned over.

"It's almost time, let's go."

"Yes."

The two went out, but they didn't go down the mountain.

Instead, go up the mountain.

Came all the way to the Yunhe Pavilion.

Just when Li Zhen felt in his mind that Gao Gong was going to take him to jump off a cliff to die for love, he suddenly noticed that there were more clouds... at some point, there were more clouds.

Fragrant Mountain and Longmen Mountain are not high in the first place. Logically speaking, such short peaks cannot be said to be surrounded by floating clouds.

However, when Xuan Suning stood on the top of the mountain, the clouds began to gather little by little.

Li Zhen felt it subconsciously.

But found that... Xuan Suning didn't let out any energy in his body.

Even the Qi around him didn't change at all.

The clouds in front of him seemed to be formed naturally.

It seems that there is an invisible person stirring up the situation.

This……

How did you do it?
Doubts rose in his mind.

But just when he was in doubt, suddenly, the tumbling clouds in front of him seemed to be squeezed into one place by an invisible big hand!
From the mid-air of Longmen Mountain on the opposite bank, clouds and mist suddenly formed a bridge of clouds, one section, one section, and in a blink of an eye, it has already crossed Yishui River and connected to Xuan Suning's feet.

"..."

Looking at the bridge of clouds and mist in front of him, Li Zhen didn't know what to say at all.

science?

Ha ha.

And just when the absurdity in my heart...

Xuan Suning made a move.

Pinch the Dow finger ritual seal:

"Thank you buddy."

After uttering the words of respect to Void, a voice came from midair... at first, it sounded like a teenager, at first it sounded like a middle-aged voice, and in the end, it sounded a bit old and rough.

"The younger generation dare not be ashamed, senior, please."

Although the voice is complicated, it sounds neutral and peaceful.

There is a very strange soothing power.

When people hear it, there is a sense of transparency that washes away the dust.

That is……

National Division?

From the two brothers of the Yan family who knew the Taoism in the world, after seeing the "rule" of Xuan Jun's view that everyone needs to be a "junior" when walking in the world, and from the mutual address of the two, Li Zhen came up with an idea .

At this time, Xuan Suning said:
"Shou Chu."

Li Zhen quickly regained consciousness:

"The disciple is here."

"Come with me."

"Uh... yes."

Seeing Xuan Suning who took a step forward, Li Zhen hurriedly followed.

Then, when his first step fell, his feet were actually a little weak.

This is really the first time for him to experience this kind of flying through the clouds.I was curious about how it feels to step on it, and I was thinking about how this fancy thing is made.

Can a cloud of water vapor be used as a solid bridge?

Let alone Newton, Watt Tesla Edison Einstein Galileo Zu Chongzhi's coffin board I can't hold it down anymore?

As soon as he stepped down, he was suddenly taken aback...

First impressions...not soft.

It's not that soft feeling.

Second, not hard.

It's not the feeling of stepping on the real thing.

The foot feels very strange, between soft and hard.Perhaps there is also a psychological effect mixed in, knowing that it is a cloud, but you can step on it, which leads to... this foot feeling... very strange.

Very strange very strange.

It feels... like stepping on a non-Newtonian fluid.

baffling.

But...it was very relaxing.

The decompression made his teeth itch.

When I was in a daze...

"Shou Chu."

"……what?"

"Follow."

Seeing the female Taoist who turned her head away, Li Zhen quickly returned to her senses.

"Ok."

Gathering his thoughts, Li Zhen hurriedly followed Xuan Suning, step by step on the bridge of floating clouds across two mountains and one river, towards the opposite Longmen Mountain.
