Chapter 2572 Zhujiazhuang

Under the light of the lantern, about a few feet away from Xiao Hua, a simple barrier made of stones and sacks was erected there. Behind the barrier was another deep pit, with several people dressed in costumes. The man jumped out of the pit with a steel knife and other weapons and a lantern in his hand, and walked towards Xiao Hua very warily. ≧The top novel,

"Poverty Taoist Xiao Hua, Taoist name is Master Xiao!" Xiao Hua did not ignore these secular servants like ordinary monks, and went straight to release his spiritual thoughts to lure Zhu Cheng out, but simply announced his name.

"You...are you Master Xiao??" These men had obviously heard of Xiao Hua's name. When they heard Xiao Hua's name, they were startled and raised their lanterns slightly, trying to see clearly.

"Ghost!!" These men had never seen Xiao Hua's appearance, and the old man next to Xiao Hua screamed and collapsed to the ground.

"Ghost?" The old man collapsed. How could all the servants care about Xiao Hua's appearance? They all shouted, or threw their lanterns on the ground, retreated in panic, or waved their steel knives in order to defend themselves.

"Hmph..." Xiao Hua snorted coldly, "This is just my transformation technique. Where did the ghost come from?"

As Xiao Hua flicked his hand, a fireball flew into the air, illuminating an area of ​​dozens of feet.

"Oh, it is indeed Master Xiao."

"It's Zhenren Xiao. I've seen the portrait of Zhenren at the young master's place!"

"The little one even kowtowed in front of the portrait of a real person!"

Several servants immediately started shouting, but no one dared to step forward. Although the old man understood that this was Xiao Hua's transformation technique, he was so frightened that his bones and muscles were numb and he collapsed on the ground. How could he stand up?

"Who is here... Oops, this... isn't this Master Xiao?" Just as he was talking, an old man in brocade clothes who was over forty years old flew out from the darkness of Zhujiazhuang. As soon as the old man saw Xiao Hua. He immediately shouted in surprise, fell in front of Xiao Hua, bowed and said, "I have seen my benefactor, Zhu Changxing."

Xiao Hua had already seen clearly the appearance of this old man. He should be one of the Zhu family disciples who he rescued from the prison of Tongzhu Kingdom more than 20 years ago. At this time, he smiled and helped Zhu Changxing up and said, "Get up. Is Zhu Cheng in the villa?"

"The head of my family is in the villa!" Zhu Changxing stood up and said happily. "If his old man knew that the real person was coming, he would definitely... Oops, the real person will wait a moment. I will ask the head of the family to come out to greet him!"

"No need..." Just as Xiao Hua was about to stop him, Zhu Changxing had already waved his hand, and a two-color zhenqi that looked like a rainbow flew into the air, turned into a rainbow bridge, and fell into the villa.

"Buzz..." As the Hongqiao fell,

A slight roaring sound came from the villa, and a scroll was seen flying out with several Confucian scholars. Several rays of clear eyes swept away from Xiao Hua and others, and then fell on Xiao Hua's face. A familiar voice from Xiao Hua in front of him exclaimed, "Xiao...Master Xiao!!!"

"Haha, Mr. Zhu, I haven't seen you for nearly twenty years, but you are still as charming as ever!" Xiao Hua walked a few steps with a smile and greeted him with his hands in hand.

The current person is naturally Zhu Cheng. But at this time, Zhu Cheng already looked a bit ancient, far from being a master of Confucianism who could refine his energy and restore his spirit.

"Master Xiao is the one among the gods!" Zhu Cheng urged the scroll. He led everyone down, walked a few steps quickly before bowing down, and said, "I often think of the real person, but I really didn't expect that the real person would come today, and I didn't expect that the real person's appearance has not changed at all."

How could Xiao Hua make Zhu Cheng bow down? He hurriedly helped him up, and those who were about to prostrate themselves after Zhu Cheng were also helped up by Xiao Hua. Xiao Hua smiled again and said: "I also passed by here because of some difficult things. I thought of the past and came here to take a look. Mr. Zhu.”

"I don't dare. I don't dare. Just call the real person Zhu Cheng. Zhu cannot afford this title in front of the real person." Zhu Cheng waved his hands hurriedly.

"Then let's call you Immortal Zhu!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.

"But listen to the real person's instructions!" Zhu Cheng hurriedly laughed, looked at the old man underground, as well as the donkey cart and children behind Xiao Hua, and asked again, "Is there anything difficult for the real person? I don't know if Zhu can help. ?”

"Haha, I want to ask you, does your Zhujiazhuang have You Zhongquan visiting from Yifeng Country in Yuzhou?" Xiao Hua asked with a smile.

"Yuzhou? You Zhongquan??" Zhu Cheng frowned and shook his head slightly, "Zhu has never known this immortal friend. Who did he hear about it?"

"Where's Zhu Xiang? This You Zhongquan is similar in age to Zhu Xiang!" Xiao Hua explained.

"Xiang'er is studying hard in the study and meditating! Zhu has never heard of anyone coming to visit him!" Zhu Cheng shook his head.

At this time, an old man behind Zhu Cheng hesitated and whispered: "Brother, Xiang'er..."

"What's wrong with him?" Zhu Cheng was startled and turned around, "Isn't he in the study?"

"Xiang'er should be in the study of Qilan Garden. However, just as Master Xiao said, he did invite some old acquaintances to come to my Zhujiazhuang..."

"This damn treacherous son..." Zhu Cheng was a little angry when he heard this, but looking at Xiao Hua, he suppressed his anger and whispered, "Let the real person see the joke. The dog is unscrupulous and invited a friend behind Zhu's back. The real person The said You Zhongquan is probably among them."

Seeing Zhu Cheng's look, Xiao Hua immediately understood how Zhu Xiang's indecisive character was formed. However, he couldn't say much and said with a smile: "Please ask this friend Zhu Xian to confirm it for Xiao."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be right back!" The old man behind Zhu Cheng agreed, and flew up into the air and fell into Zhujiazhuang. Zhu Cheng opened his mouth, as if he wanted to ask something, and then closed it again. Xiao Hua looked at these thoughtfully. In fact, if he didn't care about Zhu Cheng's face, what could he not see if he released his divine consciousness? But since the people of the Zhu family didn't use divine consciousness to communicate, there might be something strange inside, so Xiao Hua was happy to go with the flow.

"And..." Xiao Hua pointed at the old man beside him and explained, "This is someone I met when I passed by Wuyuan County. I don't know his name, but I feel sorry for him, so I ask you to take him in."

"Of course, of course!" Zhu Cheng was really touched by Xiao Hua's kindness, and didn't think it was strange at all. He quickly replied, "This is just a piece of cake for me, it's nothing."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhu, thank you, Mr. Xiao..." The old man was finally able to stand up at this time, and he hurriedly kowtowed again.

Xiao Hua smiled and helped the old man up and said, "Now you don't say that Xiao is a ghost, right?"

While speaking, Xiao Hua slightly paid attention to Zhu Cheng's expression. Sure enough, Zhu Cheng's eyebrows jumped and panic flashed in his eyes.

"Don't dare, don't dare! It's all my eyesight..." The old man bowed to Xiao Hua and smiled.

"Hey, where did you get this food from?" At this time, Zhu Cheng's eyes fell on the donkey cart behind Xiao Hua, and he looked at some grains beside the child in surprise and asked.

When the old man saw the grain on the cart, he thought of the grain left on the roadside before, and said with regret: "This is all given by Master Xiao! Master Xiao just scattered a lot of it in Wuyuan County!"

"Master Xiao..." Zhu Cheng turned his head to look at Xiao Hua, and asked carefully, "This grain... How much does Master Xiao have left?"

"Hehe, Xiao came all the way to Zhujiazhuang, and I haven't even had a sip of hot tea..." Xiao Hua said with a smile.

Zhu Cheng blushed and bowed hurriedly, saying, "It's all my fault. Master Xiao, please..."

"Okay!" Xiao Hua nodded, "Master Zhu, please lead the way!"

A light cloud appeared under Zhu Cheng's feet. He led Xiao Hua and a group of Zhu family disciples into Zhujiazhuang. As for the old man who didn't say his name until the end, he was also led by two servants on duty and drove his broken donkey cart into Zhujiazhuang. I believe that with the protection of the Zhu family, he will not worry about his livelihood in the future.

The entire Zhujiazhuang has no protection of the Yuan array, which is no different from an ordinary farm. Xiao Hua and Zhu Cheng landed in a welcoming hall. The hall is quite simple. In addition to a few tables and chairs, there are some flowers and trees, and no other decorations. At the top of the hall, a portrait is hung on the wall. The scroll of the portrait looks old, but it is spotless and clean. Faintly, there is an extremely dim treasure light emanating from the portrait.

Xiao Hua's eyes fell on the portrait, looking at the old man in Confucian clothes and a Confucian cap. He looked serene and clear-eyed, as if he knew everything in the world. He knew in his heart that this must be Zhu Xi, the famous Confucian ancestor of the Zhu family. So Xiao Hua, without waiting for Zhu Cheng to say more, stepped forward and bowed, saying: "Junior Xiao Hua, I am honored to meet Senior Zhu Xi from afar."

Zhu Cheng and other Zhu family disciples showed relief on their faces, and hurriedly straightened their clothes, stepped aside, bowed and returned the greeting, saying: "Thank you, Master Xiao, for your courtesy..."

After the greeting, Zhu Cheng asked Xiao Hua to sit at the guest seat at the table under the portrait, and he accompanied him on the other side. When someone brought fragrant tea, Zhu Cheng personally poured it for Xiao Hua and said with a smile: "Master Xiao is a Taoist senior. He usually drinks spiritual tea. I don't have any good tea here. This is the fragrant tea I personally picked and fried at Maocheng Mountain last year. Although it is not as good as the Taoist spiritual tea, it may not be as good as the daughter tea of ​​the Ca Nu Kingdom, but it is better than the Confucianism cultivation of true qi. Master can taste it."

Xiao Hua smiled and raised the cup, took a sip, but felt a bitterness in it, and this bitterness did not turn into sweetness like spiritual tea, and the tea did not turn into any true qi after falling into the stomach, knowing that it was indeed as Zhu Cheng said. But just when Xiao Hua wanted to put down the fragrant tea, his heart moved again, and he took another sip, but felt that the bitterness on the tip of his tongue was slightly layered, and a slight taste actually had a mixed feeling. He drank another sip, letting the tea overflow in his mouth for a moment before swallowing it into his stomach.

"Good!" Xiao Hua put down the teacup and praised, "The way of Confucianism is most about tempering in the world. If you don't experience the various aspects of the world and don't sift out the true knowledge from the five flavors of the world, you won't understand the essence of the great spirit. The Zhu family is indeed worthy of being the descendant of a great Confucian scholar. Just from a bowl of tea, people can taste so much. The old sage Zhu is really amazing."
