Chapter 286: Familiar Routine to Empty the Sutra Library
Chapter 286 Familiar Routine - Empty the Sutra Pavilion
Everyone's eighteenth birthday is a very meaningful event, and Xiaolongnu is no exception, because she officially became the head of the Tomb Sect on this day.
That's why Hao Shuai made a birthday cake by himself, but when Xiaolongnu saw the cake with eighteen candles, she was stunned.
Looking at Xiaolongnu and Grandma Sun with question marks on their faces, Hao Shuai realized that blowing candles and eating cake on birthdays was introduced from the West after the Qing Dynasty, and no one understood the meaning of birthday cakes in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Therefore, Hao Shuai spent two minutes popularizing the meaning of cakes to the two of them. When Xiaolongnu understood it, she showed a happy smile on her face.
The sweetness of the cake filled Xiaolongnu's taste buds, just like the sweetness in her heart at this time.
After eating the delicious cake, Xiao Longnu asked about the situation outside: "Husband, what happened outside just now?"
"Nothing, just a few scoundrels came to make trouble, and I sent them away." Hao Shuai didn't want Xiao Longnu to go out and see the bloody scene, so he evaded her with vague words.
However, Hao Shuai thought that although Xiao Longnu's strength has increased now, her experience in fighting with others is almost zero, so he has to find a way to increase her fighting experience.
And actual combat is the last way.
"Junior sister, let's go down the mountain in a few days?" Hao Shuai decided to take Xiao Longnu down the mountain to hang out, no, to be chivalrous and righteous, to eliminate violence and protect the good.
"Why go down the mountain? Isn't it good for us to stay in the ancient tomb all the time?" Xiao Longnu asked in confusion. Xiao Longnu's wife is cold and indifferent. For her, she doesn't yearn for the outside world at all. She only hopes to live in this quiet ancient tomb with the person she likes.
Looking at Xiao Long Nu's expression, Hao Shuai sighed silently. It was because the Tomb Sect was not short of money. The anti-Jin legacy left by Wang Chongyang was so much that the people of the Tomb Sect could not spend it all in several lifetimes.
If it weren't for that money, Xiao Long Nu would have gone down the mountain to sell royal jelly long ago. How could she stay at home?
"Junior sister, the world is so big, I want to take you to see it." Hao Shuai looked at Xiao Long Nu seriously and said.
"But I just want to stay in the tomb with my husband for the rest of my life." Xiao Long Nu responded.
o(︶︿︶)o Alas~
It's really tiring to talk to such a stubborn person!
There was no other way, Hao Shuai could only use his trump card. He hugged Xiao Longnu's shoulders with both hands and said sincerely: "Junior sister, I don't care if we stay in this ancient tomb for the rest of our lives, but what if we have children in the future? Do you also want her (him) to stay in this ancient tomb for the rest of her life? Will she (he) not get married and have children?"
"This~~" Hao Shuai's words made Xiao Longnu fall into deep thought.
Hao Shuai saw that Xiao Longnu was already a little shaken, so he took a step back and said: "How about this, we go down the mountain during the day and go back to the ancient tomb to rest at night, how about it?"
"Will this work?" Xiao Longnu asked with some doubts. Although she had never gone down the mountain, she also knew that it was impossible to go up and down the mountain in one day. When Grandma Sun went down the mountain to buy things before, she would rest at the foot of the mountain for one night before returning to the mountain.
"Don't worry, I have my own way." Hao Shuai promised.
"Then listen to your husband's arrangement." Xiao Longnu thought that her husband could always come up with strange things, so she believed him.
"Okay, it's getting late, it's time to practice again, you go wash up and wait for me, I'll be back soon." Hao Shuai pushed the blushing Xiao Longnu into the bathroom and walked out of the ancient tomb.
When Hao Shuai walked out of the ancient tomb, he saw that Huo Du had disappeared. He thought he had gone down the mountain to ask for help.
The ten evil heroes who were lucky enough to survive Hao Shuai were still there. When Hao Shuai came out, the body fragments on the ground had been cleaned up. At this time, they were working hard to fill and level a huge earth pit.
It's good to have internal strength, and the work efficiency is high. It didn't take long for ten people to complete the work of digging the pit, moving the corpse, and filling it.
"Get out of here when the pit is filled. Don't let me see you again in the future, otherwise you know the consequences." In fact, Hao Shuai was just bluffing them. How could he have the leisure time to remember these people's faces?
Hearing that they could leave after finishing, the ten lucky people all accelerated their actions. In a few minutes, they completely filled the huge pit, then looked at Hao Shuai carefully, and ran down the mountain without looking back.
Hao Shuai ignored the ten people who ran away, but looked at the huge pit, thinking that this place would probably be a place with lush weeds next year.
……
After spending another "harmonious and loving" night with Xiaolongnu, after breakfast the next morning, Xiaolongnu took two swords to practice fighting with both hands as usual, and Hao Shuai said goodbye to Xiaolongnu and walked towards Chongyang Palace where Quanzhen Sect was located alone.
At this time, except for the guards, all the people from Quanzhen Sect gathered in the main hall of Chongyang Palace for morning classes, which made it convenient for Hao Shuai to act.
Although Hao Shuai came to Chongyang Palace in the Condor Heroes world for the first time, fortunately, the layout was slightly different from that in the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber world, but it was generally the same, for example, the location of the Quanzhen Sect's Sutra Library remained unchanged.
After bypassing many palaces and hiding from the guards, Hao Shuai stood in front of a three-story antique attic in just a moment.
This is where the Quanzhen Sect collects classics and martial arts secrets. I hope what I want is inside.
Pushing open the door of the Sutra Library, Hao Shuai walked in so swaggeringly. Hao Shuai's action immediately awakened the Taoist priest on duty who was sitting cross-legged on the cushion on the first floor practicing internal skills.
The Taoist priest looked at Hao Shuai and shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Sutra Library!"
Hao Shuai looked at the Taoist priest and shook his head gently, thinking: The Quanzhen Sect was established a short time ago, and the foundation is still insufficient. The Taoist priest guarding such an important place is actually less than first-rate. It's really bad!
However, the Taoist priest's martial arts is poor, but in order to avoid his loud shouting to attract other people, Hao Shuai still pressed his acupoints before he could react, and then slowly walked around the Sutra Library.
The Quanzhen Sect's Sutra Library is very large. Although it is not as big as the Shaolin Temple, it is not much different. Rows of wooden bookshelves are filled with rare books.
Hao Shuai picked up a book and took a look, only to find that it was an ordinary Confucian classic. He wondered why the Taoist Sutra Library collected Confucian classics?
Hao Shuai then realized that Wang Chongyang, the founder of Quanzhen Sect, had always advocated the integration of the three religions and had proposed the idea that "Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are interconnected, and the three religions have always had the same ancestral style." So it was not surprising that the Sutra Library had a collection of Confucian classics.
Forget it, no matter what book it is, just collect it first.
So Hao Shuai spent more than ten minutes, starting from the first floor and constantly shuttling through rows of bookshelves. Wherever Hao Shuai passed, the books there disappeared along with the bookshelves.
This weird scene scared the Taoist priest who was unable to move to the side so much that his eyes almost popped out, and he intuitively wondered if he had hallucinations.
When Hao Shuai came down from the third floor, the entire Sutra Library was empty, which saved the Quanzhen Sect the trouble of cleaning.
A rich harvest Hao Shuai was satisfied and ready to leave, but before leaving, Hao Shuai came to the guarding Taoist priest, used his telekinesis to modify the Taoist priest's memory, and then teleported back to the Tomb Sect.
After Hao Shuai left, the Taoist priest returned to the cushion and meditated again according to Hao Shuai's instructions, until someone discovered that the Sutra Pavilion had been stolen and woke him up.
After that, no matter how the six people in the town interrogated him, the Taoist priest swore to the sky that he had been meditating and did not find anything unusual.
Although the six Quanzhen people did not believe the Taoist priest's words, they had no choice but to believe it.
After all, in their cognition, no one could empty the Sutra Pavilion within two hours without disturbing anyone.
This has also become an unsolved mystery that troubles everyone in Quanzhen Sect.
