Chapter 21: Chuzhou (seeking collection)

Liang Shenglou looked up when he heard the words, his eyes gradually became clear, but he immediately looked up and down his whole body crazily, and then he was sluggish on the spot, and for a long time he said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that you are true. The land immortal with magic power, the old man thought you were a senior who couldn't live in seclusion."

Shi Xuan said indifferently: "Pan Dao is still far from being called a fairy. It's just that there are some subtle methods. Mr. Liang should answer the question of Pang Dao first."

"If Dao Ruo promises to help with the next favor, Lai Xia is willing to know everything without saying anything." Liang Shenglou thought for a while, looking at Shi Xuan with burning eyes.

"Ha, Mr. Liang, do you think you have the qualifications to bargain, poor Dao just doesn't want to use spells because of trouble." Shi Xuan smiled.

Liang Shenglou raised his neck slightly, and said stubbornly: "Then please ask the chief to do it."

Shi Xuan shook his head, took a good Yu step, chanted the incantation, and then pointed at Liang Shenglou far away, two gloomy lights shot out from his eyes, just falling on his head. Liang Shenglou's eyes began to trance, and then he lost his mind and looked at Shi Xuan sluggishly. This ecstasy has an extra good effect on such souls without physical protection.

Shi Xuan slowly asked, "Tell me, will you have other gains when you get the "Eternal Life"?"

Liang Shenglou replied word by word: "There is also a letter from Guangyang scattered people."

"What's written in the letter?"

"The letter states that it is difficult to get started with "The Book of Longevity". Later, people must practice the following pictures of Qi. This is the true value of "The Book". Then it mentioned that it feels the opportunity to break through the body barrier and break the void. It is about to come, so I will find a quiet place to break through. No matter whether it succeeds or not, I will never return to the world, so I left the "Longevity Book" and did not want it to be lost. At the end, I left a verse, "Strive for thirty years, Now go to Lingtai to find Guanshan.'"

Shi Xuan asked again and again, and then stopped when he saw that there was nothing missing. It seemed that Guangyang Sanren basically didn't understand what happened after the ascent. However, Shi Xuan was not too disappointed. After all, he himself had a complete plan. It was an unexpected surprise for Guangyang scattered people to get the news, and it was normal to not get it.

Liang Shenglou woke up slowly after Shi Xuan withdrew his spells. He saw Shi Xuan standing calmly in front of him. Thinking of the dizziness just now, he trembled and said, "What do you use against me?"

"Hehe, just a little ecstasy."

"Okay, okay, okay." Liang Shenglou said in a desperate manner.

Shi Xuan read the spell silently, waved away the black smoke, and said to Liang Shenglou, "Well, since I already know what I want to know, please do it yourself, Mr. Liang. I'll leave first."

Liang Shenglou rushed over, then knelt on the ground and slammed his head. This didn't feel too substantial for the soul. It was more of an attitude. He hoarsely said: "Please be the leader People avenge! Ask Taoist chief to avenge the villain!"

Shi Xuan looked at him and said, "I'm entangled in everything, and I still have to practice. I dare not agree with you."

Liang Shenglou continued to kowtow for permission, but Shi Xuan resolutely refused.

Seeing that Shi Xuan's heart is like iron stone, Liang Shenglou shouted: "Didn't you say that you cultivators are kind to others and walk the way for the sky? Are you not afraid of being condemned by the sky?!"

Shi Xuan sneered: "No one stipulates that I must help you. It is my duty to do good for you, and it is my duty not to help. I have a clear conscience. You don't need to scare me with God's censure. If you want revenge, you should find the secret of heaven. , Say goodbye!"

"Daoist..." Seeing Shi Xuan drifting away, Liang Shenglou's soul called out a few times in the dark and humid corner before uttering to himself, "Why? Why..."

After Shi Xuan left the mountains and forests, he galloped towards the official road. After Liang Shenglou, things depended on God’s will. If he could find the place of Yin Qi in time and had strong obsessions, he might not have no chance of revenge in the future. If he is unlucky and it disappears, it is his own business. In short, no matter what, the future has nothing to do with Shi Xuan.

At noon in the first ten days of August, the sun was scorching and there was no cloud. Although Chuzhou City is the state capital, it is a famous hot place on the edge of the river. At this time, there are few people on the official road, and they are all weak. The crowded and busy scene of early morning and evening is long gone.

The guards of the city had put on their hats long ago, and then shrank as far as possible to the shadow of the city gate, cursing secretly in their hearts: The captain of the son of a **** won him a few dollars, so I arranged for Lao Tzu to guard the city gate at noon. , There is nothing to say, I am afraid I will have to spend a lot of soup and medicine, I will be roasted to death!

At this time, he saw from a distance the people coming up the official road. They looked vague under the sunlight. When he walked closer, he discovered that he was a pretending teenager with an ordinary face and a calm demeanor. He had an extraordinary appearance. Graceful. The guards of the city had planned to go up and knock a fortune, at least today’s herbal tea money had to be paid back, but they hesitated when seeing the popularity of this young man. After all, the guards had to deal with so many people every day, and their eyesight was not enough. All offend people who shouldn't be offended, and the end is miserable, and the rest are naturally people whose eyesight and insight are considered the most popular among ordinary people.

He hesitated for a long time. When this man came near, the guards and soldiers slammed themselves. Although they are not sure they are from extraordinary origins, they are careful not to make any mistakes. They rushed forward and greeted them diligently, but only accepted. The entrance fee of the two copper plates allowed Taoists to enter the city.

Shi Xuan entered the city of Chuzhou, and saw wide streets, flat roads, wine shops, inns, and various shops on both sides, and many plane trees were planted along the road to form a shelter from the summer. Although the weather is hot and there are not many pedestrians on the road, in Shi Xuan's view, only Yangzhou Prefecture is better than the other cities in Shi Xuan's view, and the rest are much worse. Of course, the major cities in the previous life are not included in the comparison.

After leaving the ruined temple, Shi Xuan stopped and went, and then went upstream by boat, and it took nearly two months to reach the edge of Chuzhou. Although it took a lot of time, it was more comfortable.

After disembarking at Hanshui City, Shi Xuan took another ten days to walk to Chuzhou City, mainly to visit a famous Taoist temple in the middle of the two cities. Unfortunately, they were all the people who cheated the world and could only play a little trick.

Now that he arrived at Chuzhou City, Shi Xuan planned to rest for a few days, adjusting his body and mind to the best, before setting off to Tongxuan Mountain, fifty miles northwest of the city.

After walking around, Shi Xuan chose a "Yunlai Inn", because the environment is quiet and there is a single yard that can be rented, which is really an excellent choice for practitioners like Shi Xuan.

"Guardian, please come with me, the front is Tianzi No.1 room." Xiao Er from the inn led the way, short and thin but clever.

Shi Xuan nodded, a little amused in his heart, unexpectedly I would also have the opportunity to live in Room No. 1 Tianzi. When I entered the backyard of the inn, I came to a small secluded courtyard with a plaque saying "Lotus Garden". Xiao Er pointed to the yard and said, "Guardian, this is our Tianzi No.1 room. There is no other yard around it. It is quite quiet, and there is a pond in the yard full of lotus flowers. Every summer, there is a fragrance. Array."

While they were talking, Shi Xuan and Xiao Er had already entered the yard. Sure enough, there was a medium pond on the left side of the yard. The lotus blossoms were full of water. On this day, the sun was scorching, people lacked cicadas, and other plants around were lazy. In the situation of listlessness, smelling this scent of fragrance is exceptionally refreshing.

After Shi Xuan dismissed the shop, he returned to the yard, under the big tree, smelling the fragrance of lotus, closing his eyes and resting.

In the next few days and during the day, Shi Xuan shuttled through the city of Chuzhou. On the one hand, he collected news for his trip to Tongxuan Mountain a few days later, and on the other hand, he was trying to taste various delicacies of Chuzhou City, such as big river fish and steamed crabs. Wait. In the evening, Shi Xuan practices boxing first, then visualizes the strengthening of the soul, adjusts the breath and moves the qi, and does not leave any practice lessons.

That evening, Shi Xuan slowly walked back to the inn while reminiscing on the fresh onion fragrance and taste of the big river fish. As soon as I crossed the threshold and entered the lobby, I heard rushing footsteps behind him. Soon a thin scholar walked around Shixuan and walked towards the counter. Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The guest officer is dining. Or stay in the store?"

The thin scholar hurriedly stopped and replied: "Hello, my dear friend. He lives in a shop and a shop." Although the scholar is thin, he is not short, about seven feet tall, only slightly worse than Shi Xuan. Although his face is pale, he looks pale. He was still pretty, but his eyes were a bit sluggish.

Xiao Eryi in the shop heard that he lived in a shop, and there was some contempt on his face, but after all the people in the lobby, it is impossible to show the scholar's face, so he still said kindly: "Then, may I ask the guest official Gao's name, and there is still a way. Where is it?"

The scholar didn’t see Dian Xiaoer’s contempt, and happily replied: “Xia Xia’s surname is Ding, his name is Mingde, the table character... the table character… I haven’t entered school yet, and I haven’t reached twenty, and I haven’t had one yet." Looking ashamed, he took out Lu Yin from his arms and handed it to Xiao Er.

Xiaoer from the shop took the guide: "The guest officer waits a moment, I will show the way to the shopkeeper, and then come and guide you to Tongpu."

Ding Mingde nodded very gratefully, and then stood on the side and waited quietly, because the shopkeeper had to fill in the name, hometown, etc. in the account book according to the guide for later auditing or government investigation, which took a long time, and Ding Mingde was like I'm very familiar with this process, so while waiting, I took out an oil paper bag from my arms and opened it to reveal a cold steamed bun.

Ding Mingde looked at the steamed bun with a hungry face, and said to himself embarrassedly: "There is only this last one. I have to go to Tongxuan Mountain tomorrow. Should I eat it tonight or not?"

Shi Xuan was about to walk through the lobby and into the backyard. He suddenly heard the scholar mention Tongxuan Mountain, so he walked a few steps back, and let a man wearing a hat stand not far from the scholar, intending to listen to the scholar. What does it have to do with Tongxuan Mountain?
