The camp where Guan Longzi was imprisoned was only guarded by ordinary sergeants, and there were no restrictions. However, if he left, these people would not survive, and no one dared to doubt this.
The surrounding sergeants also admired Guan Longzi from the bottom of their hearts. Although they did not dare to set up the camp in a luxurious manner, they kept it spotless and secretly sent in some books or antiquities seized from the Dongyi Allied Forces. However, no one dared to argue with him. say.
Guan Longzi didn't go out either, he just sat in the tent with peace of mind.
At this moment, the stars and the moon were dark, and a single fire was burning in the tent. It turned out that King Xia had not collected Guan Longzi's Liangyi Life and Death Lamp.
A woman dressed in noble purple clothes came curling up. When the sergeants on both sides saw her, they all knelt down and saluted. The woman was Lei Jing. She defeated Wu Ding in a single battle, her cultivation was on par with the elders, and she had established great authority among the Xia tribe's sergeants.
Moreover, during this expedition against the Dongyi Allied Forces, Lei Jing also beheaded two famous warriors of the Shi family - Nan Qiao and Dong You.
Nan Qiao was able to transform into a towering tree man with unlimited vitality. He strangled many Xia tribe soldiers with branches. Finally, he was killed by Lei Jing's thunder spell, which wiped out his vitality.
Dongyou once learned a mysterious witchcraft that could dissolve in the wind and be invisible to others. He assassinated several generals of the Xia army, but was forced out of his body by Lei Jing to summon wind and rain, and died from being pierced by thousands of arrows.
Lei Jing's contribution is not small, and because the Xia King has no daughters, it is said that the Xia King intends to use this contribution to make Lei Jing a princess and inherit the position of high priest. If this is true, the Youhu family will usher in its heyday , so many other families are thinking of marrying with the Lei family, even if they pay a huge price.
But only the Youhu family knew that Lei Jing was no longer something they could restrain.
For example, Guan Longzi is like a volcano and cannot be touched, but Lei Jing still brings a food box to see him every day.
Lei Jing entered the camp alone, carrying a food box. Guan Longzi was holding a tortoise shell with written text and looking at it. The records on it were only trivial things, but he was enjoying what he saw and looked at peace. He was not because of being beaten. Imprisoned, and looking gloomy.
It wasn't until Lei Jing approached him that Guan Longzi put down the tortoise shell, looked at the food box and said, "Why is there still no meat today?"
Guan Longzi sighed: "In the past, Fellow Daoist Shen said that it would be better to live without bamboo than to eat without meat. Now I deeply believe it."
When Lei Jing heard Guan Longzi mentioning 'Sir', her expression was a little complicated. She really understood that he was indeed a unique and strange man. She was just wishful thinking before, and there was no way she could make him fall in love with anyone. .
He is like a cloud, once you turn around you may never see him again.
These emotions flashed past, and Lei Jing said sternly: "Master Guan, do you know that my uncle was planning to fill you with iron juice and eat copper beans every day? There are no vegetarian options now.”
Guan Longzi smiled and said: "I am a little bit dissatisfied. Lord Jing, why do you need to vent your anger?"
Lei Jing said calmly: "If I were angry, I wouldn't give you food every day."
Guan Longzi smiled, opened the food box, and ate slowly. Although it was vegetarian, it was very delicate. There were lotus seed soup stewed slowly over a slow fire, snacks as white as snow, and bamboo shoots as tender as dripping water, especially these. The ingredients are all full of spiritual energy, and what’s even more valuable is that the cooks are extremely ingenious. This bowl of lotus seed soup, with its meticulous heat, is like the spring breeze turning into rain, melting into every grain of food and water, impartiality, and no loss. The delicious flavors of all the ingredients in the lotus seed soup can be blended together properly, which is really rare.
After sweeping away the food like a wind and a lingering cloud, Guan Longzi said contentedly: "With this vegetarian food, I don't know how to eat meat."
Lei Jing frowned slightly and said, "Is it so delicious?"
Guan Longzi said: "These foods are not only delicious, but also tasteful. Managing a big country is like cooking small delicacies, and the cooks must be extraordinary people."
He was definitely not lying. From just a piece of lotus seed soup, Guan Longzi seemed to see a knowledgeable man who knew the Tao deeply. He was a Taoist figure who was completely different from Shen Lian and had distinctive worldly characteristics.
Lei Jing said: "Are you talking about that cook? He is really strange. He was just a slave, but many nobles are willing to be friends with him and chat with him. A few days ago, my father called him to be an official. He didn't agree, but wanted to come and be my current man. My father said that even if he didn't become an official, he couldn't be sent elsewhere, so he might as well stay here with me, so I accepted him.
Master Guan didn't think vegetarian food was unpalatable, so I wanted to find a better cook in the army. I didn't expect him to recommend himself. The food he made was indeed delicious, so I brought it to you. I didn't expect you to think so highly of him. . "
Guan Longzi knew that this must be a genius, but it was a pity in his heart that King Xia didn't even want to tolerate him, so naturally he couldn't tolerate this genius. From his unwillingness to be an official, we can know one thing or two. Moreover, Guan Longzi understood even more that Da Xingling was one of the few people in Da Xia who could understand the situation. Moreover, under his flattering appearance, he actually had a decisive heart. This wizard had obviously seen through this. Only then did he join Lei Jing after refusing to become an official, thus avoiding the danger of death.
His wisdom is truly extraordinary. Guan Longzi has a vast amount of knowledge on his own, but in terms of how to survive in the world, he may not be as good as his opponent.
Guan Longzi said: "Let's not talk about him. The fact that I can eat so well today is really a gift from Lord Jing. Guan Longzi has nothing else but a belly of pedantry. To repay you seems inappropriate. Fortunately, he is pedantic. There are also some superficial opinions. If Lord Jing is not in a hurry, can you listen to them?"
Lei Jing wanted to refuse, but she felt sad when she saw Guan Longzi's free and easy appearance. She thought to herself that it was too much for her uncle to treat him like this, so I would just talk to him.
In fact, she didn't know that Guan Longzi was sad not because of his own situation, but because of the fact that such wizards were unwilling to serve in the Great Xia. It can be seen that the King of Xia has hurt many people's hearts. Today, the flowers are blooming and the fire is cooking. , but if one thing goes wrong, the king’s hegemony may be burned to the ground.
Guan Longzi can be buried with Daxia, but what he has learned must still be passed down.
Although he gave the mountain to Shen Lian, it actually contained his life's wisdom. If he hadn't explained it in detail in his own words, others would never know the true meaning.
Moreover, Guan Longzi wanted to entrust his orthodoxy to the people of the Xia clan. If Daxia overthrew in the future, Lei Jing would be one of the very few who could take over the whole body. Naturally, there would be no more suitable candidate than Lei Jing for him to entrust.
Lei Jing didn't understand the complexity in Guan Longzi's heart. She just felt that with her current state of mind, she didn't know the meaning of many of Guan Longzi's words, let alone the reasons for them. She could only remember all these words with her strong memory. Wait to think about it later.
After talking for a long time, Guan Longzi still had more to say, but he was afraid that if he continued talking, Lei Jing would not be able to remember it.
So Guan Longzi paused and then said: "If Master Jing has many questions, you can ask your cook, and you will definitely gain something."
