Chapter 59 Planting the Roots
The two brothers and sisters each mounted their horses, arguing all the way back to Changqing temple.

"Senior brother, this insidious villain in the prison is plotting against us, what do you think we should do?"

"Didn't it say "cold salad"?"

"What? Are you going to let him go? This is not like your style, brother."

"Hmph, I'm not the kind of person who will take revenge."

"Oh? Really? Then, whoever broke the vase and begged me for help, but when my father appeared, he immediately put on a pitiful look and beat me up, accusing me of breaking it, causing me to be beaten innocently." ?”

Taoist Songxue cast a sideways glance at the other party and said, "Who didn't do my homework seriously and urged me to go to the back mountain to catch Master's Uncle's Baoji, which caused me to be whipped by Master?"

"Since my younger brother remembers it so clearly, then I also want to ask, who painted two flowers on my face while I was sleeping? And who sprinkled vinegar and salt in my Taozong tea?"

"You used the snake to scare me first?"

"The snake is well-fitted in my sleeve, whose hands are so cheap that they insist on pulling out my cuff!"

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

The two immediately glared at each other, and the flames were blazing, and all of a sudden, new and old hatreds rushed into their hearts; thanks to the fact that these two people are not good at flirting, and they are not a man and a woman, otherwise, they might become a couple who love and kill each other. Be good lover.

In short, if you really want to talk about the past of the two brothers who hurt each other, you can't finish it all day and night, and the kindness and resentment, right and wrong, are even more unclear.

Over the years, they have fought from home to mountain, from childhood to adulthood.In the end, Taoist Wuwei won an overwhelming victory by relying on his senior brother's identity and endless revenge to stabilize his senior fellow.

Up to now, Taoist Songxue has basically only followed his senior brother, but every time he recalls the unbearable past and thinks about the bleak future, he can't suppress a wave of evil fire, and he must be angry with his senior brother.

In any case, the pair of brothers who exposed each other's wounds finally calmed down and walked on their way.

When he was about to return to Changqing Temple, Taoist Songxue couldn't hold back the words he had been holding back for a long time. The cold war was less than an hour away, so he couldn't help but talk, or how to say, the fight between the two, he couldn't hold back. Always lose?It's not wrong to lose.

"I said, brother, are you really going to let the prison go?"

"Hey, Master taught us that to be a human being, we should repay kindness with kindness and repay grievances with honesty. How can we get revenge for such a small matter? Brother, we should take a long-term view."

"Oh—what brother said makes sense, but what should I do?" Taoist Songxue asked shamelessly.

"Hmph! It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Junior brother, don't go out and wander around during this period of time, and keep an eye on the prison for me. Unless he is really a master who is self-denying, virtuous, and indifferent to fame and fortune, he will be caught sooner or later." handle."

"Hey, after you catch him, you will have to shed a layer of skin if you don't die." Taoist Songxue added excitedly.

Sigh, don't look at this pair of seniors who look like dogs, they are actually full of bad habits, have no integrity, and they are about to do bad things when they are holding back.

Especially Taoist Songxue, no matter how much he practiced, the dandyism brought out from his mother's womb just couldn't be cultivated, and he would show up whenever he got the chance.

While the brothers were planning how to deal with the Prison, the Prison also summoned its confidant Ma Zai and dog-headed military adviser——Lu Dushao to discuss how to deal with the aftermath.

"Lu Du said, how do you think this matter is handled well?"

"Today's matter is simple. Let's insist that Little Mirror took the wrong form. Even if they don't believe it, we firmly deny it, and they have nothing to do."

"Yes, I firmly deny it. If they insist on pursuing it, let's punish the little mirror a little bit. In short, how about doing a good job of superficial skills?" The supervisor had an idea.

"High regards from the Supervisory Court."

"Well, let's do this, deal with this matter first and then talk about the next step."

"What does the prison mean?"

"The key to the problem is what to do in the future? If these two Taoists stay in our Evergreen Temple, what should we do?" This is the most concerned question of the Supervisory Court.

"Then what level does the Supervisory Court hope to achieve?"

"Anyway, I don't want to see them again."

"Then we have to think long-term. First of all, they are from Sanqing Mountain after all. We still have to maintain our harmony and not let others pick our thorns."

"That's the reason, then what?"

"I have a plan, but I have to think carefully about it."

"Say it."

"Behind our Taoist temple is Daoist Tao's territory. She has taken in many female disciples to practice in the temple. Can we do something about it?"

"Tao Tao is from Yongle Palace, and has never had anything to do with us, and most of her female disciples are women from high-ranking officials and noble families, so it might be inappropriate to provoke them."

"The prison is overthinking. Didn't we say that there is really going to be some trouble? It's just using their names to deal with the pair of brothers, so-so-so, and then we caught them on the spot and kicked them out. This matter It's over, Tao Daoist probably doesn't know anything yet."

"Is this okay? Do you have to make such a big fuss?" The supervisor was very hesitant and entangled, and the two villains in their hearts were fighting fiercely:

The evil villain said, just take care of him, and it's over.

The villain with a still conscience said, no, no, it's too disrespectful of martial arts, if something goes wrong, it will be cooked in one pot.

The two villains fought back and forth, but in the end it was the evil villain who was slightly better.

"In that case, when those two come back, you should observe first, and if the time is right, you can try it a little bit, but you must pay close attention to me, and there must be no scandal."

"Don't worry about the prison, I'll keep an eye on it." Lu Du said swearingly.

With such a good discussion, the supervisor can rest assured to prepare for Huang Lu Zhai.

The so-called Huangluzhai is: to save ghosts, move them to Feishuang, open the long night, ascend to the poor spring, and consolidate its main purpose; then dispel disasters and bring blessings, thank Xie for sins, universal cultivation of human beings and heavens, benefit both the family and the country, and make meritorious deeds Everything is carried on. ①
Translated into adult words, it means: on the day of the New Year’s Eve, a three-day Dharma Conference will be held in the Changqing Temple, and seven altars will be built, including the Capital Altar, the Yellow Altar, the Prayer Altar, the Auspicious Altar, the Fighting Altar, the Salvation of Human Beings, and the Altar of Salvation of Suffering. The sacrificial altar is preached and taught by more than ten sutra masters and high-level masters according to the subject.

On the New Year's Eve, Taoist believers in the entire Chengnan County will gather at Changqing Temple to participate in the event, so all aspects must be prepared in advance.

The supervisor thought that everything would be fine if he entrusted everything to Lu Du, but he didn't know that nine out of ten things in life were unsatisfactory.

Thus lay the root of the future struggle between Taoist Xiashan, Daoist Tao, and the supervisor.
