Confucius and his wife followed Nangong Jingshu to the manor of a family in the city!
This family is a businessman, and most of the family's property is still in the Song Dynasty. The property in Luoyi is just for the convenience of the circulation of the family's goods.
When Uncle Nangong Jing took out the token given by Xiang Xu and wanted to live in his house, the owner of the manor immediately welcomed him as an honored guest. He freed up all the best houses in the manor for Confucius and his party to live in, and even arranged a large number of servants to follow him.
Not to mention how precious the Xiangxu token is in the Song Dynasty, the name of Confucius is almost a myth in the Song Dynasty. The owner of the manor has personally experienced the great disaster in the Song Dynasty. If it were not for Confucius, I'm afraid their entire family will be destroyed.
At this moment, Confucius came to ask for a stay for a few days. Naturally, he felt extremely honored and made careful arrangements. Even when Confucius stayed, he would not be disturbed easily.
"Teacher, have you met Emperor Zhou?" Ziyu asked curiously.
Confucius nodded.
Bao Si also appeared on the side: "You didn't tell me where I am, right?"
"Don't worry, my husband didn't say anything!" Qi Guanchi said with a smile.
Bao Si frowned and looked at the golden dragon with a hundred thousand miles of energy in the sky, and finally sighed slightly: "I really shouldn't have listened to you this time!"
"Look at the center of your eyebrows!" Qi Guanchi said.
However, he saw that a phoenix tail pattern appeared between Bao Si's eyebrows, becoming more and more profound, almost dazzling.
"If you don't want to stay in this era, you can go back immediately! Then you don't have to worry about anything else. But now the curse mark of the phoenix tail feather between your eyebrows is so clear, which means that you have been locked in. The one who cast the curse on you The people should be able to find you, Sheng Jiutian, Phoenix Ancestor? By then, if you want to travel back, you will have no chance!" Confucius said solemnly.
"That's...!" Bao Si's face turned ugly for a while.
"Zhou Gonggong doesn't know when he will be released. If you are caught, Zhou Gonggong must be exposed. Here, I don't know what Ji Zhurong will do, but at least he will protect you, right? If he doesn't protect you , you just have an excuse to stop him from pestering you in the future!" Confucius explained.
"But...!" Bao Si looked complicated.
"I should know that I am coming. Tomorrow, I will go to see me! The source of the communication avenue! I may not be able to distract you. If during this period, Sheng Jiutian or Phoenix Ancestor comes to find you, and Ji Zhurong is unwilling to save you, You go back through time immediately, don't hesitate, don't hesitate!" Confucius said solemnly.
"Are you going to see me tomorrow?" Bao Si asked in surprise.
"I know I'm coming, so I should be ready! So are you. If you have any problems during this period, leave immediately and take care of yourself. Don't worry about me!" Confucius looked at Qi Guanchi, Ziyu, and Nangong Jing uncle
"Yes!" the two students responded.
Qi Guanchi looked at Confucius, as if he wanted to follow him, but Confucius pressed his hand: "When you meet me tomorrow, you can't be distracted at all. If there is danger, you can go back through time!"
"Okay!" Qi Guan had a look of reluctance in his eyes.
After explaining to everyone, Confucius sat quietly alone, wanting to be in his best condition to see Lao Tzu.

Luoyi, Sutra Collection Hall!
Yang Zhu felt guilty and wanted to report it to me.
However, I didn't let him see me.
Lie Yukou glared at Yang Zhu: "Yang Zhu, you have gone too far this time!"
"Me? I just think that there is something so great about Confucius. The teacher's great way is the best in the world!" Yang Zhu said a little depressed.
"Okay, don't disturb the teacher's peace. The teacher wants you to face the wall and think about your mistakes! Go quickly!" Lie Yukou said in a deep voice.
Yang Zhu was a little unconvinced, but since this was my order, he could only respond: "Yes!"
Just when Yang Zhu was about to face the wall and think about his past.
"Kuang!"
The door to the Sutra Collection Hall suddenly opened.
But I saw that I was slowly walking out with a volume of books in my hand.
"Teacher!" All the students said respectfully.
I looked at the students and waved gently.
"Moo!"
A green Newton walked over, walked up to me, and knelt on the ground.
I stepped on the green ox.
"I will go to Mang Mountain to wait. Tomorrow morning, the imperial guards will lead all the disciples to greet Confucius in person. They said, I am at the top of Mang Mountain, waiting for him to come!" Laozi said solemnly.
"Ah? Yes!" All the students were surprised.
With that said, Qingniu stood up and slowly left the vicinity of the Sutra Collection Hall with me on his back.
At this moment, all Laozi's students realized how much Laozi valued Confucius.
All the students went to greet him. This honor was something that no emperor of Zhou Dynasty had ever had.
Yang Zhu looked at the teacher's leaving figure, suddenly showing a sense of bitterness, and finally understood that what he did this time was indeed too rude.

Kunlun Secret Realm. Taixuan Palace.
Xuannv, the current Phoenix Ancestor is sitting on the Nine Phoenix Throne, looking at a phoenix tail feather in front of her.
The phoenix's tail feathers emitted bursts of soft light, condensing a hazy picture in front of them. Standing in front of them was a group of phoenix maids, activating the phoenix tail feathers.
"Ancestor, this ancient tail feather has been cursed successfully, and Bao Si's whereabouts have been found! She is currently in Luoyi in the Great Zhou Dynasty!" A Phoenix maid said respectfully.
"Dazhou, Luoyi?" Phoenix Patriarch's eyes were cold.
"Yes, but King Zhou You is still unable to guess!" the Phoenix maid said respectfully.
"If you find Baosi, you can find King Zhou You, hum! Okay, okay, okay, finally found it!" Phoenix Ancestor said coldly.
"Congratulations, ancestor!" the maids said respectfully.
"call!"
Ancestor Phoenix stood up.
"Show off, Luoyi!" Phoenix Patriarch said with a divine light like a knife in his eyes.
"Yes!" All the maids responded.

Qufu Que, Confucius's humble abode.
Kong Li was studying when he suddenly saw several senior brothers surrounding a burly man.
"Senior brother, who is that person? Why are you so nervous?" Kong Li looked at me worriedly.
"Study well and don't worry about anything else!" Ziwo shook his head.
I am the Crown Prince of the Golden Crow. At this moment, I can feel the violent power emanating from the man in blue robe, and his face is on guard.
Not far away, several Golden Crow princes surrounded the man in blue robes.
The man in blue robe is none other than Zhou Gonggong.
Zhou Gonggong was surprised when he looked at the several Golden Crow princes in front of him. After all, in ancient times, everyone knew each other's appearance.
But at this moment, half of Zhou Gonggong's face seemed to be disfigured. It was difficult for people to see clearly, and the Golden Crow princes didn't recognize him. They just felt threatened by this person.
"Haha, you little guys! Are you more polite now?" Zhou Gonggong sneered.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?" a Golden Crow prince said coldly.
"Hey, this is what Wang Xiong left for me. Where is my wife?" Zhou Gonggong handed over a stone slab with the handwriting left by Confucius on it. The legacy of awe-inspiring righteousness is still clearly visible today.
"Oh? Are you Gonggong?" A Jinwu prince asked in surprise.
All the Jinwu princes finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they looked at Gonggong more and more strangely.
"This is the letter the teacher left before he left!" A Golden Crow prince handed over a letter.
Zhou Gonggong immediately took it and started reading.
After reading it, Zhou Gonggong looked angry.
"What the hell, Wang Xiong, how could you do such a stupid thing? The emperor of Zhou is that bastard Zhu Rong, and you took Sheng Si to him to protect him? Are you crazy? You are not my son-in-law anymore. How can you turn your arms outward?" Zhou Gonggong was so angry that he tore the letter into pieces.
"Hmph, you little guys are not good either!" Zhou Gonggong cursed with red eyes.
With that said, he ignored the few Golden Crow princes and soared into the sky, heading straight for Luoyi of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Zhou Gonggong is going crazy. Damn it, every time Ji Zhurong is around, nothing good happens!
----------
Early the next morning! Luoyi, at the doorstep of a merchant named Zi.
At this moment, a group of Lao Tzu's students stood respectfully at the door, waiting.
These are all my students. No matter which one they are, they are highly respected in Luoyi.
Laozi's Taoism respects morality, and these people are all moral models. Even the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were extremely respectful to them. Even the Great Zhou Dynasty wanted to confer officials on them, but none of these students of Laozi looked at them. Gotta catch your eye.
Any one of them is enough to make the officials and people of Luoyi respect him. At this moment, almost all of my students came here, which naturally caused a sensation.
The merchant named Zi who accommodated Confucius was even more excited and trembling with fear. The imperial bandits personally went to merchants' homes to invite Confucius.
Confucius nodded in agreement, and Lie Yukou returned to wait outside the door.
Confucius explained again, and then slowly stepped out of the merchant's house.
"By order of the teacher, I respectfully invite Confucius of Lu!" A group of Laozi students bowed down.
Countless people around him stared wide-eyed, trying to remember the man in white Confucian robes.
Who is this? It’s such a big honor that I send all my students to invite you? For a time, there were countless voices whispering to each other.
Of course, Yang Zhu lost his etiquette yesterday, and today I had to send everyone to greet him.
"Please!" Confucius nodded.
Confucius stepped onto the carriage prepared by Lie Yukou and others, sat on it quietly, and headed out of the city.
As soon as the students of Confucius and Laozi left, the merchants with the surname Zi were suddenly overrun by relatives and friends.
The place where Laozi invited Confucius to meet was not in the city, but outside the city, in Mang Mountain outside the city.
Mang Mountain is located in the north of Luoyi. From the top of the mountain, you can see the rushing Yellow River in the distance.
Confucius sat in the carriage and soon arrived at the foot of Mang Mountain. A group of Laozi students personally led the way to the top of Mang Mountain.
On the top of Mang Mountain, there are some buildings that look like the place where I always live.
"Confucius, the teacher is over here!" Lie Yukou pointed to a big rock on the top of the mountain not far away.
Confucius turned to look.
But I saw the white-haired old man sitting quietly on a big stone, with a small stove boiling tea next to him.
Sitting so quietly, it seems that he is integrated with the heaven and earth. If he doesn't look carefully, he can't seem to notice that there is a person in front of him.
"Long time no see!" I cupped my hands and said with a slight smile.
"Long time no see!" Confucius cupped his hands and gave a slight salute.
As soon as the two opened their mouths, the students around me naturally stepped aside and did not dare to interrupt.
"Please!" I signaled.
Confucius nodded, stepped onto the big stone, and sat opposite Laozi.
Laozi and Confucius sat face to face on the top of Mang Mountain, beside the rushing Yellow River, and looked at each other carefully.
