Soon after, Mr. Blind and Song Da Songsan were led by Miss Gong to a tea house outside the town surrounded by mountains and rivers.
Because it was mid-winter and it was approaching New Year's Eve, the tea house was very deserted... Of course, it might also be because it was booked out.
On the way, Song Da and Song San chatted with the blind man. According to the blind man, he has never met this Lai Caisheng, but he knows that his senior brother does have such a disciple, who is the orthodox successor of this generation of commoner Taoism.
Regarding the rules of the commoner way, over the years, the third brother Song Dasan has already slapped the blind man's mouth on the sidelines... It seems that not only the best disciples are qualified to become the orthodox heirs, and the blind man's ability seems to be better than his brother, the previous generation of commoner The ability of the preacher of the Tao is higher.
But after all, as a Feng Shui sect, it doesn't seem to pay much attention to the aspect of combat power... As for why the blind man stayed away from China and lived overseas for a long time, whether it is Song Da, Master Song or others, it is still unknown .
However, Song Da and Song San saw that the blind man's return this time seemed to be due to his senior brother's call... So, the relationship between the two descendants of the previous generation of commoner Taoism seems to be okay
With many questions, Song Da and Song San were shocked to find that they were arranged in another private room in the tea house and could not participate in the meeting between the blind man and Lai Caisheng.
"Daoist Qingxiazi said that the two of you are followers, just wait here." Miss Gong stopped Song Da and Song San's protests in a neutral manner.
Oh my time! This blind man really regards his brothers as bags!
Ignoring the depression of Song Da and Song San in the private room at this time, in a pavilion in the tea house, under the guidance of Miss Gong, Mr. Blind finally met the young and white-headed Lai Caisheng.
This tea house was built on the edge of the pool, and this pavilion was laid in the center of the pool. It seems that there was a light snowfall not long ago, and a trace of hoarfrost can be seen on the trees in the distance.
Lai Caisheng was making tea at this time, and his movements were delicate.
Mr. Blind himself is also young and gray-haired, and he hasn't recovered after so many years. So when he 'sees' Lai Caisheng, he knows what Lai Caisheng has experienced.
Ninety-nine lives in one night, joys and sorrows, only to turn gray... This is a very special method in the commoner way. It does not really require people to spend ninety-nine lives overnight. It can only be said that the more past lives spent, the greater the achievement. higher.
"Uncle, please sit down." Lai Caisheng raised his head at this moment and smiled slightly.
Mr. Blind frowned, lifted the back of his clothes and sat down slowly, and suddenly asked: "Ninety-nine, have you spent all of it?"
Lai Caisheng didn't seem to be surprised by such a question, so he calmly replied, "It's been a lifetime."
Mr. Blind nodded, heaved a sigh of relief at the same time, and said calmly: "You are better than me."
Lai Caisheng missed one lifetime, but Mr. Blind himself missed three lifetimes... After the ninetieth lifetime, with each additional lifetime, the level of difficulty increases geometrically. There is only two lifetimes between him and Lai Caisheng, and the gap in potential is hard to calculate.
Now he can easily figure out some of Lai Caisheng's falsehoods and truths, but it is only because he has been soaked in a lot of experience from the other party.
"Master said, Master Uncle is the most outstanding genius in my commoner Taoism for nearly three hundred years." At this time, Lai Caisheng elegantly poured a cup of freshly brewed hot tea for Mr. Blind.
But Mr. Blind didn't move, and went straight to the point: "Your master is looking for me this time, why didn't he not show himself, but let you come instead?"
Lai Caisheng said seriously at this time: "Master Uncle doesn't know something, and now I can't know where Master is going. I just had a whim a few days ago, and I guessed it. I calculated that there would be a person with a deep connection with our sect." It will appear in a few days. Only after thinking about it carefully, you are probably the only person in the world who has a deep connection with our sect."
"Brother is missing?" Mr. Blind frowned at this moment: "What's the matter? He also left me a message on Wudang Mountain. I also calculated that it was near Mount Tai."
Lai Caisheng raised his eyebrows at this moment, "I wonder what kind of message Master left for Master?"
Mr. Blind said indifferently: "He just said that he has something important to discuss with me, but I don't know what it is. You also know that the disciples of Commoner Dao like to guess... We are good at everything, except This is not good. You don’t see your heart when you see people, and you only rely on calculations. You don’t know that people are poor and sometimes the sky is impermanent... Human calculations are not as good as heaven’s calculations."
"Caisheng has been taught." Lai Caisheng bowed to Mr. Blind at this time, with a sincere attitude.
At this time, Mr. Blind was facing the sky outside the pool, and suddenly opened his cloudy eyes, "The evil spirit is soaring here, and the mana fluctuations are mixed and difficult to distinguish... Did something happen during this Penglai meeting?"
Although Mr. Blind has been living overseas for a long time, he is a person who has come out of China after all. He is naturally familiar with the major events that occur every ten years in the two worlds. Even when he was young, he participated in the Penglai Fair several times with his master. Penglai will naturally be no stranger.
So Lai Caisheng briefly talked about the appearance of the White Jade Edict, which everyone competed for, and finally the intervention of the Shenzhou True Dragon, Xuanyuan Palace and the 'Administration Bureau'.
Lai Caisheng sighed and said, "If it wasn't for the real dragon's attack this time, I'm afraid the Taoist Association will not be able to suppress it at all... Even some people in the Taoist Association attach great importance to this edict."
"It's such a treasure, it will naturally mess up people's hearts." Mr. Blind said indifferently: "They are only human beings, they haven't become immortals yet."
"It is precisely because I have not yet become a fairy that I will seize the slightest opportunity." Lai Caisheng said softly: "After a hundred years of cultivation, I only want to become a fairy... At the beginning, everyone had this hope, so they chose this path."
Mr. Blind shook his head and remained silent. After a long time, Lai Caisheng wanted to replace the cold tea, but Mr. Blind said no, and drank the cold tea on his own.
He said indifferently: "It is said that people take tea to cool down. For someone like me who left early, this cold tea is just right for me."
Lai Caisheng smiled slightly at this time, and did not pour out his own herbal tea, but drank it with Mr. Blind. He went on to say: "Uncle lives overseas, and now that he is back for the first time, he won't be able to hear about my master for a while. Why don't you live in Wolong Villa casually for a few days."
Mr. Blind fell silent.
Lai Caisheng smiled again at this time and said: "Our commoner Dao has its own exclusive courtyard every time in Wolong Villa, and my uncle lived there before. Why don't you revisit the old place? Besides, Caisheng also has many things to do. Uncle's advice."
Mr. Blind shook his head and said: "I can't teach you, maybe my senior brother can't teach you anymore. Since you have officially become the successor of the contemporary era, it means that you are the most orthodox head of the commoner Tao... Since the head is sincere invitation, then Qingxiazi will accept it."
"Uncle Master doesn't have to be like this." Lai Caisheng said hastily.
Mr. Blind said: "Strictly speaking, I am just an abandoned disciple."
…
Not long after, Mr. Blind left from the pavilion in the pool, and Miss Gong came to Lai Caisheng's side at this time.
Miss Gong frowned slightly, "I heard that Qingxiazi should be the successor of the commoner Taoism of the previous generation. Why did Qingxiazi become an abandoned disciple in the end?"
Lai Caisheng made tea slowly, and said slowly: "Some people think that this identity is a cage with an unbreakable destiny, and some people think it is an honor that they can't ask for."
"What about you? What do you think this is?" Miss Gong looked at Lai Caisheng and asked.
"Me?" He smiled and said, "I don't think this is anything... I just want to find out what the wrong life is." "
Miss Gong was silent for a moment, and then said: "After all, Qingxiazi is also a disciple of the commoner. This time your master traveled thousands of miles to find him, and it must not be because of a simple meeting to catch up. You say..."
Lai Caisheng stopped suddenly, then dipped his finger in some tea, and then drew something on the stone table.
Ms. Gong glanced at it, and the trace of tea water seemed to be a word for 'death'.
Lai Caisheng was silent at this time, and seemed to want to continue writing, but his fingers were still lingering, and finally he simply erased the word 'death'.
"Tianji is still as chaotic as ever." Lai Caisheng sighed, then stood up, looking at the calm lake water in winter without any waves, he did not speak for a long time.
Miss Gong knew that Lai Caisheng was a person full of inspiration, and his inspiration was more like an intuition for the future, so she didn't dare to interrupt Lai Caisheng's meditation at this time.
After a long time, Lai Caisheng shook his head and said, "Forget it, the boat has arrived at the bridge... Do you have anything else to do?"
Only then did Ms. Gong nod her head, "I just received a message that several descendants of the four great demon clans have disappeared from Kunpeng Villa."
"They all belong to the four major clans?" Lai Caisheng turned around, seeming a little surprised.
Miss Gong said at this time: "One from the Qinglong clan, one from the White Tiger clan, two from the Suzaku clan, and one from the last Xuanwu clan."
Lai Caisheng pondered: "What do you think?"
Miss Gong said: "Whether it is the Taoist world or the demon world, this time they have sent a lot of people in private to fight for the imperial order. Although the Taoist world and the demon world have been quiet for a long time because of the agreement, there are still constant frictions in private. Maybe these missing monsters were caught by people from the Dao Realm on their way out."
Lai Caisheng shook his head and said, "It's not this."
Miss Gong was startled, then frowned again. But her heart moved quickly, "You mean, no matter what the reason for the disappearance of the demon clan is, this matter will develop into the most direct issue between the Dao world and the demon world?"
Lai Caisheng sighed softly: "We, the division between good and evil monsters is too clear."
He then smiled wryly, and said again: "Take me back to Wolong Villa to lie down, the two old grandpas above me probably won't be able to sit still right now."
Miss Gong nodded directly.
…
…
In my impression, Luo Qiu doesn't seem like such a strong person. The strength mentioned here is not in terms of body shape, but in ability to resist cold.
Zhang Qingrui remembered that before the first winter vacation of the first grade, Luo Qiu had caught a cold once and came to the classroom wearing a thick coat. At that time, it was Professor Qin's class. This person must have taken cold medicine, so he slept for more than an hour, and finally asked Professor Qin to leave him as a punishment.
At that time, he... should be just an ordinary person, right
Zhang Qingrui became more and more curious about what happened to him that made him so extraordinary... Or, the email he received about writing about his future self was just a joke, an illusion.
Song Haoran from the Song family said that he wanted to go out on an adventure to find the child of the local legendary dragon god.
For such an adventure, Zhang Qingrui understands that it is the curiosity and exploration of the hometown by the two backs of the Song family... Children who grew up abroad probably have a different kind of curiosity about the green mountains and beautiful waters in China.
And Huaguo has always had a lot of mysticism, which is randomly interpreted by foreign countries.
Zhang Qingrui didn't intend to go out at first, but after seeing that Luo Qiu seemed willing to go with her, she agreed by accident. She was a little complicated with Luo Qiu.
Although the two parties are classmates who have a good understanding, but more, the current Zhang Qingrui cares more about Luo Qiu because of that email.
In the past two days of getting along, Luo Qiu seemed to be the same classmate Luo Qiu, and seemed to be another person.
"What are you thinking about? Young lady of the Zhang family." Song Haoran suddenly appeared behind Zhang Qingrui at this moment, poking his head out and asking.
Zhang Qingrui is a calm person. At this time, she smiled slightly and said, "I was thinking, what should we do if this expedition can really find the child of the Dragon God?"
Song Haoran blinked and said, "Miss of the Zhang family, I didn't expect you to believe in such mysticism?"
Zhang Qingrui said: "Probably because some business in the family is also related to mysticism. In fact, there are many things in history that cannot be explained. And in many places, aren't there also various legends?"
"Legends..." Song Ying interjected at this time: "Isn't it just a hypothesis that has been passed down. All legends come from fantasy and worship, and then processed by later generations."
Zhang Qingrui didn't seem to have any intention of arguing with Song Ying, but just smiled lightly, "So let's verify these legends one by one. I think this is a very interesting thing in the first place."
"You have a good idea," Song Haoran said with a laugh at this moment: "Are you interested in exploring with me, in the future?"
Zhang Qingrui smiled and said nothing... The negotiation between her and her grandmother has not really come to a result. In the future, she is not sure whether she will be a caged bird or a free bird. How can you easily look forward to such a thing as adventure
The wind in this mountain stream suddenly became a little bit stronger, Zhang Qingrui couldn't help but shivered, she found that the clothes she was wearing were a bit too small in the end.
"Put it on."
Luo Qiu in the back took off his clothes at this time, and put them on Zhang Qingrui gently. r
