The next day, Lin Rufei woke up from a hangover with a headache. As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a splitting headache. She covered her head and moaned lowly on the bed, but she couldn't get up for a long time.
Gu Xuandu sighed beside him, saying Xiaojixiaojiu, he didn't listen to the words of his predecessors, but he would suffer. Having said that, he still sat next to Lin Rufei, put his head on his lap, and gently massaged his sore temples.
Lin Rufei was drowsy after being pressed, and complained in a low voice why her head hurt so much.
"It's said that the wine has a lot of energy, but you still don't listen." Gu Xuandu said.
Lin Rufei hummed: "Isn't this senior's wine too fragrant, can't you hold it back?"
Gu Xuandu smiled and said, "It's my fault."
The temple was rubbed by Gu Xuan for a while, which relieved a lot of pain. Lin Rufei slowly got up from the bed and called Fu Hua to say that she was hungry.
Seeing that Lin Rufei hadn't woken up, Fu Hua was a little worried at first, but when she heard Lin Rufei's order, she was relieved. She just smelled the odor of alcohol in the house that had not dissipated, and casually asked the young master how he was drinking.
Lin Rufei said, "I couldn't sleep yesterday, so I just drank a little."
"Then you have to drink less." Fu Hua said worriedly, "Young master is still coughing, this alcohol is hot and dry, I am afraid it will suppress the medicinal properties."
Lin Rufei nodded and said she knew. He was leaning against the bed, listless, and somewhat regretted his greed for cups yesterday, but thinking about it carefully, if Gu Xuandu took out the jug again at this moment, he would probably beg Gu Xuandu to pour him another half cup.
Man, it's always so contradictory.
Fu Hua brought Lin Rufei food and sober soup, watched him eat, and asked Yu Rui to bring the medicine that had been boiled for a long time.
Looking at the medicine, Lin Rufei frowned, but because the maid was staring at her, she couldn't, so she could only squeeze her nose and drink it, whispering in her mouth that she was drinking this medicine every day, and she didn't know if it would work. Floating Flower Yurui was by the side but smiled silently.
No matter how simple it is to wash and tidy up, they plan to leave the Fujiazhuang.
Just when he walked to the door with the carriage, he saw Fu Shui and his family guarding the door. After seeing him, he hurried up to meet him and shouted, "Young Master Lin..."
Lin Rufei had a really bad impression of Fushui, so she hummed.
The weather was hot, and Fu Shui didn't know how long he had waited here. His head was covered in exaggerated sweat. He said, "Young Master Lin, have you seen my brother?"
Lin Rufei said, "No."
"Yesterday he asked me for a sword, and I heard someone say he went to your yard." Fu Shui said, "I never saw him come out again."
"Yujian is gone." Lin Rufei replied briefly.
"Leave? Why did you leave?" Fu Shui lost his mind, "This, this... I heard that when he came back, a banquet was set up at home, and he wanted to take good care of him, so why did he leave."
"Why did he leave, do you still want to ask me?" Lin Rufei was surprised.
Fu Shui sneered: "Although my brother is angry with me, we are a family after all. If there is something wrong, if he tells it, we can change it."
Lin Rufei said, "I'm not your brother, what are you talking about with me?" He was already a little impatient, and gave Fu Hua a wink, Fu Hua understood and raised his whip.
Who would have thought that Fu Shui took a step forward and stopped the carriage with his body. The great god cried out, "Young Master Lin, please save our Fu family, we really can't live without my brother, you For the sake of this family, please tell me where my brother is! Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, Mr. Lin, we are begging you for dozens of people in our family! "After saying that, he knelt down and cried, and the old and young behind him also cried. The scene was spectacular.
Lin Rufei finally understood why Fu Yu had to leave quietly. Now that everyone knew about it, he would definitely not be able to leave.
But Fu Yu was paying for his family, so he wanted to give some face to his family, but he, Lin Rufei, had nothing to do with the Fu family, and he didn't eat the way of paying water. So Fu Shui, who was kowtowing to Lin Rufei with a large group of people, suddenly felt a chilly coolness on the top of his head. When he looked up again, he felt a chill on his forehead, and something rustled on his shoulder. superior.
Fu Shui trembled all over, reached out and touched his head blankly, looking at Lin Rufei who was drawing his sword, only then did he realize that his hair was cut off by Lin Rufei's scalp before falling down. A little bit, and his head can be chopped to a bloody mess.
"The first time was a warning." Lin Rufei said mercilessly, "If you dare to say more, the next time you suffer will be your neck."
Fu Shui's face suddenly paled, and he fell to the ground with a cry. Seeing that Lin Rufei was so unsympathetic, the people behind them all avoided both sides in horror. Lin Rufei's face didn't change, she waved her hand, and when Fu Hua saw this, she slapped the whip again, and the carriage galloped away, leaving behind the Fu family who were looking like dirt.
After the carriage drove out of Fujiazhuang, Lin Rufei understood why they had such an attitude towards her. Within a radius of dozens of miles, the original lush and green crops all withered overnight. Without the Spirit Gathering Array with Fuyu as its core, these crops would not be able to last even a night. Fujiazhuang once again changed back to the saline-alkali land that was barren, only this time, but I don't know how many years later, the second Fuyu will appear.
No, maybe it will never appear, Lin Rufei thought, not to mention Fujiazhuang, I am afraid that even in this world, there are not many Fuyu that can be found.
Probably sensing that Lin Rufei was in a bad mood, Yu Rui casually talked about where they were going next. Said that the place was amazing, the whole country was full of temples, Lin Rufei asked casually, "Temples? They believe in Buddhism?"
"No, they don't believe in Buddhism." Yurui said, "They believe in the emperor."
The name Tianjun is reverberating on any continent, and Lin Rufei has also seen many stories about him in the storybook. It's just that most of these stories have a bit of a mythological flavor, like something like slaying a dragon against the water, which always feels unreal.
Yurui said: "Young master should have heard the name of this country."
Lin Rufei asked, "What's it called?"
Yurui said, "Da Jing."
Dajing, the name of this country, Lin Rufei, has indeed been heard, but it has only been heard, and I do not understand it. Today, the Yaoguang Continent is divided into four countries. Although there are some small frictions, it is said that there has been no major war for many years. Most immortals will not participate in the worldly disputes, after all, they can't get too much benefit from it.
Compared with money and power, the Avenue of Longevity is the only way. After all, the lifespan of a mortal is only a few dozen years, no matter how powerful it is, in the end, it is a handful of loess.
Of course, there will also be some monks who can no longer be recruited by the state. These monks will play an extremely important role during the war. After all, a swordsman of the five realms can kill a hundred people with one sword. On the battlefield, it is naturally broken. The enemy's weapon.
However, these sword cultivators who are involved in mundane things are usually not very high-level, and there are very few people in the five realms.
The carriage continued to move forward, and the surrounding scenery also changed. After leaving the saline-alkali land of Fujiazhuang, I saw the lush plants and crops beside the road, and the houses gradually turned into ordinary brick houses. After walking for more than ten days, I saw a bustling city.
Lin Rufei walked all the way, sending letters to Kunlun all the way, vividly describing what she had encountered, of course, the letter deliberately omitted the danger she encountered, just said some interesting things. Kunlun's side also quickly replied to the letter, still the same old saying, repeatedly told Lin Rufei to pay attention to safety. Lin Rufei stared at Zhile. In the dictionaries of his brothers and sisters, the word escape was definitely not used, but when they met him, they wanted to engrave this word on Lin Rufei's forehead, fearing that his younger brother would eat it. Lost.
On the first day of entering Dajing, Lin Rufei saw what Yurui meant by "powerful". This place is almost a small temple in three steps and a large temple in five steps. There are temples about Tianjun everywhere, and there are incense in the temples. At its peak, it can be seen that the people of this country are indeed worshipping with devotion.
Lin Rufei wondered why Dajing had such an attitude towards Tianjun, so she casually asked the street vendor when she was shopping.
When the hawker heard it, he became energetic and said, "Keguan, did you just come to our Dajing?"
Lin Rufei said, "Yes."
The hawker said: "It's no wonder, as long as people who have lived in our Dajing for a period of time will not ask this question." As he said, he danced and said why Dajing respected Tianjun so much.
The time goes back hundreds of years. At that time, the formation to protect the mainland had not yet been laid. The monsters of the Bie continent often attacked. Above, most of the people in Dajing are ordinary mortals. If they are allowed to enter successfully, I am afraid that Dajing will suffer a brutal slaughter. However, people who have ascended to the Immortal Path, how can they care about the lives of mortals, mortals have always been like ants in the eyes of immortals, not to mention those rich and powerful families. Dajing devoted all his national strength, and only invited more than a hundred monks from his own country, but with their strength, it was impossible to resist the demon clan. Just when Dajing was desperate, Tianjun Yujian came...
"It is said that the Heavenly Monarch was already in the ten realms at that time, and he will soar away in a few days. I didn't expect him to care about these little things." The hawker said with excitement, as if he was a spectator of that battle. "When Tianjun was angry, he buried a million corpses. Just the sharp sword in his hand cut off the heads of thousands of demons, and finally sealed the broken passage. We Dajing, only died. Ten thousand people is a great fortune among misfortunes, and you should also know what happened later."
Lin Rufei said, "Later, Tianjun set up a formation to protect the entire continent?"
"Yes, yes, he is about to leave soon, but he still cares about the world, such a person! He really deserves that monarch!" the hawker said.
Lin Rufei had actually seen this battle from books, but the description was too exaggerated, and he didn't believe it. After all, it is really unimaginable to fight ten thousand demons with one person's strength. Moreover, it has been a long time. Most people who have read the history will feel that it is a bit exaggerated, and Lin Rufei is no exception.
However, these dense temples and worship in Dajing are telling Lin Rufei that the war was indeed real, otherwise the people of Dajing would not be so grateful, and the incense continued for a hundred years.
After eating, Lin Rufei stopped by a nearby temple for a stroll, and saw the sculptures belonging to Tianjun placed in the temple.
This sculpture is dressed in red and stands with a sword. Although it has been some years, its agile demeanor can be vaguely seen. In front of the statue are incense tables and futons, surrounded by pilgrims who are worshipping, and the scene is very lively.
Lin Rufei was looking up at the statue, but was hit by a child who was running around. He didn't care, raised his hand to support the child, and told him to be careful. The child glanced at Lin Rufei, replied and planned to run out, but just two steps away, someone grabbed the collar.
"What are you arresting me for!" the child screamed, struggling.
Lin Rufei heard the news and looked around, but unexpectedly saw a familiar face, he was surprised: "Why is the little master here?"
The one who grabbed the child was the monk Lin Rufei met by chance on Mount Xiliang. The monk still looked gentle and gentle, and said with a smile, "It's probably because of a relationship with the benefactor."
"Monk stinky, monk stinky—let me go!" The child struggled even more when he saw that Lin Rufei knew the monk. Seeing that the monk didn't want to let go, he turned his head and wanted to bite into the monk's hand. The monk raised his hand slightly, and lifted the little thing directly by the collar, "Bite is not a good habit." He looked at Lin Rufei and asked, "Look at the benefactor, but what is missing? "
Lin Rufei was suddenly stunned, reached out and touched her arms, and found that her purse had indeed disappeared. This kid's technique is really powerful, he doesn't feel that he has been stolen at all.
Seeing that his actions were discovered, the child could only obediently take out the filth, but still glared at the monk angrily, scolding: "You bad monk!"
The monk smiled with a good temper: "You are the one who stole things, but I have become a bad monk."
The child said: "He is a noble son, and he can't die without a purse, but if I hadn't stolen something, I would have been beaten to death!" When he talked about the fallacy, he was quite righteous, "You helped him. , but it took my life, you say you are a bad monk!"
The monk suddenly said, "It makes some sense for you to say that."
The child said, "Yes!"
The monk said seriously: "Then why don't you do this, I will help you kill the person who is going to kill you, so you don't have to die, what do you think?"
Hearing the words, the child froze for a moment, but involuntarily shrank his neck. He felt very strange, this monk still spoke softly, but what he said was so intrusive. He reluctantly said: "Don't be so troublesome, if you give me some money, I can go back to do business, killing such a troublesome thing..."
Unexpectedly, the monk shook his head, sighed, and said, "No trouble, no trouble, it's easier to kill than to make money." Then he took out his patched purse, trembling in his hand, and it fell out of the purse. Out of three copper coins, nothing else.
The child was frightened by the monk's words, and shouted: "You are crazy!" Turning around and running, seeing the back, he was really embarrassed.
Lin Rufei wanted to laugh when she saw it, saying that such a small child, what are you doing to scare people.
The monk said righteously: "He is reasonable, and I am also reasonable, how can you say that I scare him." As a result, just after he finished saying this, Lin Rufei heard a grunting voice coming from the monk.
Yu Rui couldn't help laughing: "Little master, how long have you not eaten!"
The monk sighed, "I'm so shy."
Lin Rufei said, "It just so happens that we are going to have dinner, why don't you just join us with little master?"
The monk said sternly: "How can this be appropriate without merit?"
Lin Rufei said, "How can this be said that there is no merit and no reward, didn't the little master help me get my wallet back?"
"Yes." The monk nodded, "That would trouble the donor."
The group walked outside. Lin Rufei asked the monk's name. The monk said that his name was Xuanqing, and he came from Nanyin Temple.
"Then Master Xuanqing must not eat meat, right?" When it came to eating, Lin Rufei suddenly thought of this.
"Yes." Xuan Qing said, "The monk is easy to support, so the donor can just buy two steamed buns for the monk."
Lin Rufei was so willing, she dragged Xuan Qing to choose a good restaurant, and specially ordered a lot of vegetarian food for him.
Xuanqing didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten. As soon as the food came, he immediately stopped talking with Lin Rufei and ate with chopsticks very seriously.
Lin Rufei's appetite has never been very good. After eating a few things, she stopped and watched with interest as Xuan Qing easily finished off a large bowl of rice and a few plates of vegetarian food. Only then did she show some satisfaction. Come.
Lin Rufei asked, "Where is the little master staying at night?"
Xuanqing said: "I live in the temple." He put his hands together, bowed to Lin Rufei, and said, "Thanks to Tianjun for this, if it wasn't for his followers who built the temple extensively, the monk would probably be regarded as a god. The ground is seated."
Lin Rufei smiled and said, "You believe in Heavenly Sovereign, what are you doing to salute me? By the way, you said before that the Dajing royal family invited you over?"
"Yes." Xuan Qing said, "Does Young Master Lin also want to go to the royal family?"
Lin Rufei nodded: "I have an invitation to send over, and I happen to be on the same road as you. Why don't you come and be my companion?"
Xuan Qing thought for a moment: "Will it cause trouble to the donor?"
Lin Rufei said, "What's the trouble with this, just drop by."
Xuan Qing should go down.
But even so, when Lin Rufei invited him to stay at the same inn as her, Xuanqing refused, saying that it would be fine if she lived in the temple, and she shouldn't bother Lin Rufei too much. Seeing that he was so stubborn, Lin Rufei had no choice but to give up.
Before Xuan Qing left, the two agreed to go to the Imperial City Lantern Festival in Dajing tomorrow morning together.
If you take a carriage, it is about four or five days' drive away from Lantern Festival, provided you don't encounter any accidents on the way.
Yu Rui gently fanned the wind with a silk fan for Lin Rufei, and said with a smile that this monk is an interesting person.
Lin Rufei glanced at her, then looked at Fu Hua, and sighed and asked if the red star at home had fallen into their house.
Yurui glared: "How can the young master make fun of me like this, that's a monk!"
Lin Rufei said seriously, "Isn't it good looking?"
"It's good looking..." Yu Rui bit her lip and said, "But that's also a monk."
Lin Rufei said, "Isn't it a vulgar thing to say?" She laughed first, "What a little girl is so nervous, I'm just joking."
Yurui snorted: "That's not good, what if I take it seriously and the monk refuses to return to the vulgarity?"
Lin Rufei patted her chest and said, "It's okay, I'll tie the monk back for you."
Yurui and Fuhua laughed together, both of them knew that Lin Rufei was joking and didn't take it to heart. On the other hand, Gu Xuan, who was next to him, frowned, and Lin Rufei entered the room and asked him why he had this expression.
Gu Xuandu said, "Then you probably won't be able to beat this guy."
Lin Rufei asked curiously, "Is he so powerful?"
Gu Xuandu said: "It's not just him, the ones who came out of Nanyin Temple are all monsters. Now you, if you really fight, maybe you really are not his opponent."
Lin Rufei showed a thoughtful look.
Besides, after Xuan Qing came out of the restaurant, he slowly walked towards the temple where he was staying. At this time, it was dark and there were fewer pedestrians on the road. He passed an alley, but heard the piercing cries and beggings of children, mixed with harsh scolding.
Xuan Qing paused slightly before walking into the alley.
The alley was dimly lit, and there were rotten sundries. In the corner, a few children huddled together and were beaten by a few adults with sticks: "You rubbish, this is the harvest today? Put away your little thoughts, you don't want to live anymore, right!" He was about to smash the stick on a child when he heard a gentle voice of Amitabha behind him.
The man turned back and saw a handsome monk. The monk was wearing an old robe, his eyes were half down, and he said warmly, "Why do the two donors bully a group of children like this?"
"It's none of your business, get out, or I'll beat you up!" The man saw only a rather thin-looking monk, his expression became even more fierce, he spat on the ground, and waved the stick in his hand, "Get out of here! !"
The monk stood still.
"Don't you understand people's words!" The man was even more annoyed when he saw that the monk didn't move. He was a local ruffian who controlled a group of thieves. Most of these thieves were young and unreliable children. Such children are best controlled.
"Amitabha." The monk clasped his hands together and sighed, "It's really not easy to make money."
After he finished speaking, he said to himself, "Murder is much easier." After that, he turned around and walked out of the alley.
The group of people thought the monk was afraid, and they were about to laugh at him, but the sound of a sharp weapon passing through the air suddenly sounded beside their ears.
There was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground and the panicked screams of the children.
The monk heard it but didn't turn his head. He recited Amitabha again, pinched the purse in his cuff with a frown, and carefully counted the only three copper plates left in it.
The next day, Lin Rufei met Xuan Qing at the entrance of the inn. He knew that the monk probably had no money to eat, so he specially packed a lot of cakes for him.
Xuan Qing happily took the cake, opened it and ate a piece of it earnestly. Just as he was satisfied, he heard someone calling him, "Monk!"
Xuan Qing turned back and saw the child who stole Lin Rufei's purse yesterday. The child looked at Xuan Qing, his eyes were shining, he said, "Monk, can I learn martial arts with you?"
Xuan Qing was stunned for a moment, then pointed to himself: "Me?"
The child nodded: "I saw it last night! I also want to learn to kill with you!"
Xuan Qing said: "What do you want to learn to kill?"
The child said seriously: "Of course it is to make money, to make a lot of money."
Hearing the word money, Xuan Qing's face became bitter, and he waved his hand and said, "No, no, you can find someone else." Then he hurriedly got on the carriage.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Lin Rufei could see a bit of embarrassment from Xuan Qing's back.
The author has something to say: Gu Xuandu: It would be great if you were not drunk
Lin Rufei: If I'm not drunk...
Gu Xuandu:
Lin Rufei: I'm afraid the previous chapter has been locked.
Gu Xuandu: …
