Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 802

This year the world has become more and more difficult.

There is chaos outside, the Great Song Dynasty has been dead for some years, only some generals, the generals continue to fight for territory and expand their power under the slogan of restoring the country, and the lives of the people are getting more and more difficult.

Even Yangzhou was affected.

Only Guobei County still has the prosperity of the prosperous age, but it is not as good as before.

But Li Xiuyuan is still alive, he is not dead yet.

Now he has begun to realize that the poison of longevity has been caused, and it turns out that living too long is not a good thing.

Fortunately, wives and concubines in the underworld often come to reunite with me, so it doesn't seem too boring.

today.

Outside Guobei County, the wind and sand rolled up. A monk with a fluttering white beard and a staff walked by with a young novice.

"Shifang, which way should Guobei County go?" Zen Master Baiyun suddenly stopped and asked.

"Master, go to the left, but master, what are you going to Guobei County for? Aren't we going to Xiangguo Temple?" the little monk Shifang said.

"To visit a great sage is also to meet an old friend." Zen Master Baiyun said.

At this moment in Lanruo Temple.

In the secluded backyard, a broad and fat man in a brocade suit, with a peaceful expression, was lying on a rocking chair and taking a nap with his eyes closed.

On his lap sat a graceful and charming woman.

"Giggle."

The woman smiled coquettishly, and stretched out her jaded hands to rub the man's chubby face lovingly; "Husband, you have gained weight recently, and your face has become so big."

"Third Sister, stop rubbing, no matter how soft your eyes are," Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.

Youdao is a fat man with a broad mind. After letting go of the secular world and ignoring the chaos in the world, he eats and drinks well. In addition, he stays in the temple all day, and he accidentally becomes a big fat man.

If my father sees it, he will be very happy, because he is already full of energy.

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan's strong body in his youth was replaced by fat, and his handsome facial features became no longer obvious. He had forgotten all about his martial arts at the level of a martial arts master, but he still had a bit of brute force on his body That's all.

Time is not forgiving.

Third Sister Hu was still as beautiful and enchanting as before, she didn't stop, she continued to rub her husband's chubby face, and said coquettishly; "If you continue to get fat, you will definitely not be able to walk in the future."

"Why don't you take the time to lose weight another day?" Li Xiuyuan rubbed his stomach and said, but then said: "Otherwise, the coffin won't be able to fit after death."

"Huh? There are guests here." Suddenly, Third Sister Hu said again.

"Guests? My former friends are all old and dead, and I'm the only one who is still alive. What kind of guests are there? Could it be the second brother?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

He has lived to 90 years old, which is considered a long life.

Apart from ghosts and gods, none of the people in the same period can live to the present.

"Husband, don't you know if you go out and have a look?" Miss Hu San said with a smile.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Then go and have a look."

When he left the backyard and came to the treasure hall of Lanruo Temple, he saw an old monk sitting cross-legged on a futon, chanting scriptures and meditating, waiting quietly. There was a young monk next to him, who seemed to be his disciple.

"Mr. Li, I haven't seen you for more than seventy years, and you are still the same as before." Seeing Li Xiuyuan approaching, Zen Master Baiyun immediately opened his eyes and woke up, and said with a smile on his face.

"You are." Li Xiuyuan looked at the old monk and recalled.

But I really can't think of who he is.

"Mr. Li, have you forgotten, the little novice named Baiyun who was next to Master Shikong at the Xiangguo Temple in the capital?" Zen Master Baiyun said.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, and said: "It's that little monk, I really didn't expect that more than seventy years have passed, and you are still alive."

"Fatty, how can you talk to my master like this?" the little novice at the side Shifang said unhappily.

"Young man, you should call me grandpa, or uncle."

Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Young man, don't look at me as chubby. To tell you the truth, grandpa, I was super strong when I was young, so no matter how you look at it, I hope the young man will respect me."

"Hmph, aren't you just a big fat man?" Shi Fang asked.

"Bad guy, don't be rude. Mr. Li is a great sage. He is a person who has seen the Bodhisattva Arhat. As a teacher, I came to Guobei County today to meet this Mr. Li." Zen Master Baiyun reprimanded him, and then apologized to Li Xiuyuan Said: "The villain's morality is not right, and he needs to be disciplined more to make Mr. Li laugh.
It is. ”

"It's okay, Baiyun, you disciple can tell right away that you don't have wisdom roots and are not suitable for cultivation. It's better to return to the vulgar." Li Xiuyuan said.

Zen Master Baiyun sighed: "There is no pure land in this world, only Guobei County is still somewhat pure. Mr. Li is not walking in this world, the world is in turmoil, and the people are in dire straits. I really don't know when it will end."

"This is a turmoil in the world, not a chaos of ghosts and gods. I am also a human being. How can I keep everything in the world peaceful?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"That's true." Baiyun said, "It's just suffering for all beings."

Li Xiuyuan didn't say much. Seeing Zen Master Baiyun like this, he thought he had traveled the world and saw the misery of the world, so he felt this emotion.

Zen master Baiyun and his apprentice Shifang stayed at Lanruo Temple for three days and then left again, saying that they wanted to save all sentient beings.

But Li Xiuyuan also deeply felt that it was not an option for him to hide from the world like this. Although he didn't have much life left, there were still some things he had to do.

"Third sister, go to the underworld for me, let Wang Ping check the book of life and death, and see if someone who inherits Zhu Shengren's great fortune has been born. The world has been in turmoil for a long time, and it's time for peace." Li Xiuyuan said .

"I know that you can't be idle forever." Having been together for many years, Sanjie Hu didn't know her husband's temperament.

It seems that decades of landlords and bureaucrats have lived a corrupt life, with many wives and concubines, and a house full of children and grandchildren, but in fact, they have always pretended to be the world in their hearts.

It's just that he has enough energy to spare, and the time has not yet come, so he can't go against the sky by himself.

At night, Sanjie Hu came back from the underworld, and she said, "In a certain farmer's family, there is a man named Zhu Chongba who inherited the great fortune of Zhu Shengren. His fate is beyond words and that child is Zhu Yu's descendant."

Zhu Yu?

Hearing this name, Li Xiuyuan fell into some memories again.

When you are old, you like to remember when you are old.

"What is he doing now?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

Sanjie Hu used the mysterious light technique, and the picture in the water showed a farmer's boy who was herding cattle for the landlord's house, about ten years old.

"A cowherd boy? You are old enough, and you can become a talent after a few years of teaching." Li Xiuyuan said: "With the great fortune of Zhu Shengren, he will start a new dynasty and put an end to this troubled world."

"So this person has the emperor's life?" Third Sister Hu was surprised.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Naturally, make some preparations. Let's go out and find Zhu Chongba. I will teach him personally."

three days later.

In a certain village, Li Xiuyuan found the child who had inherited the fortune of Sage Zhu.

"Are Zhu Yu's descendants also in this desperation?" Li Xiuyuan couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he saw the dilapidated appearance of his house.

I remember that when Zhu Yu was alive, he passed on farming and studying to his family. Although he was not rich and powerful, he had a good family background.

Now only 70 years have passed and it has declined like this.

"How much food did you eat to get so fat? I know, you must be a rich man who doesn't need to herd cattle." A naughty boy pointed at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile.

Although he has a naughty smile on his face, he has a maturity and wisdom that his peers do not have.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "You kid is very interesting. Why, do you want to read and write? I can teach you for free."

"If I don't study, I still have to herd cattle, and I can't eat if I can read and write." Zhu Chong said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "If you don't know how to read and write, you will have to keep cattle for the rest of your life, so will your son and grandson, but if you can read and write, you only need to let the cattle go for three years. After three years, you can eat and drink without worrying about it. "

"Really? Then I want to learn." Zhu Zhongba said.

In this way, Li Xiuyuan stayed in this village to teach Zhu Chongba to read and write.

He is very smart, after all, he is a descendant of Zhu Yu, and he has not lost his mind as a scholar. In addition, he has inherited Zhu Shengren's luck. He is a little different from ordinary people, and he learns things quickly.

In one year, he was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. Two years later, he learned the strategy of war, and three years later, he learned the emperor's mind.

Although he has never used it or used it, Qianlong Zaiyuan will remember what he has learned in the past three years when he needs to use it.

Three years later, Li Xiuyuan left.

However, Zhu Chongba lost the cow because he was addicted to reading while grazing the cow one day. Although he managed to find it back, he lost his job because of it, and finally had to leave the village to ask for a living.

It is said to be begging for a living, but in fact it is begging for food and wandering.

What he didn't know was that Li Xiuyuan had been secretly watching him from the beginning to the end, and often let ghosts and gods secretly protect his safety.

"Since my husband cares so much about Zhu Chongba, why didn't you bring him to Guobei County?" Qing'e asked with a smile.

Li Xiuyuan replied: "Guobei County is relatively rich, and the Li family is even more superior. He is a person who wants to pacify the world, and his aspirations cannot be dampened by a rich life. He can only travel around the four seas and see the difficulties of the world. and the misery of the people can arouse the ambition in my heart and
Can have the ambition to pacify the world. "

"But he has no advisers or generals, how can he calm down the world?" Qing'e laughed.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Li Shanchang has matured a lot in these years, he can be regarded as a treacherous and cunning man with ginseng essence, I want him to assist Zhu Chongba."

"Back then, in order to take into account the inheritance of the Li family, the third sister ordered the descendants to change their surname to Hu in order to prevent the collateral lineage from affecting the direct lineage. In recent years, a more promising scholar named Hu Weiyong has emerged. He can also take on this role."

"Wu Xiang's descendants have a pair of brothers, the older one is called Wu Liang, and the younger one is called Wu Zhen. Although they did not inherit Wu Xiang's four-element power, they are also the seedlings of generals. they let out"

Qing'e was a little surprised and said: "Could it be that my husband has been planning for a long time? Even civil servants and generals are ready."

"They are still a little immature. It is definitely not so easy to pacify the world this time, and they need a seasoned person to take care of them." Li Xiuyuan said: "Xiao'e, do you have any good candidates?"

Qing'e thought for a while and said: "Second brother still has a merit to become an immortal, so I can let second brother go to the mortal world for a while."

"Then I can only trouble Second Brother one more time." Li Xiuyuan said.

In a few words, he decided on a group of great Ming Dynasty founding heroes in the future.
