Chapter 212 Moth Touches the Net
Wu Tiannan was startled and said: "Every sentence is true. My father is the magistrate of Pingchuan County. All the people in the territory have the duty of care. It was a good intention. I didn't want to offend the mage. Please forgive me!"
"County Chancellor?" Lu Shengzhong seemed suspicious.
"They have documents to prove it." Wu Tiannan hurriedly waved to his entourage.
The people in the entourage quickly took out a document from the package, except for Wu Tiannan, the others were the government servants of Pingchuan County, and they were about to send the document to Beizhou, and escort Wu Tiannan along the way.
Lu Shengzhong took the document and looked at the cover. It really belonged to the county government, and there was a seal of the county government on it.
Throwing the document back, Lu Shengzhong said nothing more, put the sword back into its sheath, and turned to the young woman, "Let's go."
Wu Tiannan and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and watched as Lu Shengzhong helped the young woman up the hillside.
When several people climbed the hill, they saw the young woman getting into the carriage, and the man drove the carriage up the official road and left.
Several people also went down the mountain and climbed on the horseback, and continued on their way, but ended up going the same way with the carriage in front of them, and they accidentally turned into walking together.
After the two parties gradually started talking, they became acquainted.
Only then did Wu Tiannan know that the boy's name was Tao Jun and the girl's name was Tao Yan'er, they were two brothers and sisters.
The brothers and sisters were originally from Pingchuan County. The elder brother Tao Jun met a monk when he was young and left Pingchuan County. After Tao's mother died of illness, the tomb where the two brothers and sisters worshiped was the mother's tomb. Later, Pingchuan County was in chaos, and the Tao family also moved out of Pingchuan. Not long ago, before his father passed away, his younger sister Tao Yan'er had a finger-to-nail marriage in his hometown of Pingchuan County.
The two brothers and sisters came here for the purpose of their marriage, but after inquiring after returning home, they found out that the family of the man who married them had already disappeared during the war.
The carriage was bumpy, and Tao Yan'er, a frail woman, couldn't stand it after sitting for a long time, and she didn't know how to ride a horse, so she would get out of the carriage to rest occasionally.
Knowing that they were fellow villagers, the brother and sister treated Wu Tiannan and the others quite amicably. Tao Yan'er even took the initiative to ask Wu Tiannan some things during a break on the way.
"I remember that there is a tower in the south of the city. I used to climb it to play when I was a child. This time I came back and found that it was gone. I don't know why?"
Wu Tiannan hehe said: "Remember, there was indeed a pagoda in the south of the city. My sister doesn't know, that pagoda is very old, and it was built during the prosperous period of Buddhism before the Wu Dynasty. It has been preserved for a long time and is very old. Once there was a heavy wind and rain, it suddenly collapsed. The people nearby needed bricks to repair their houses. You moved some, he moved some, and it disappeared. The empty land was naturally occupied by people later."
"I remember that there is a bamboo forest opposite the tower, and there is a restaurant in the bamboo forest. I went there with my father when I was a child. Why is it gone?"
"The restaurant caught fire, and several buildings including the bamboo forest and nearby houses were burned down. It was such a big fire, and I still remember it deeply."
"Oh, it's a pity that we can't recall the past." Tao Yan'er looked disappointed.
Seemingly yearning for her childhood memories, Tao Yaner kept asking about the past in Pingchuan County.
That soft-spoken and well-proportioned scholar, that gentle and bookish demeanor, that lightly painted face, that graceful figure with slender waist and chest, made Wu Tiannan's heart feel hot, and he found that compared with the one at home, he was completely different.
Especially knowing that this girl is waiting to be married, and she is not a monk. At this age, getting married should be a matter in front of her eyes. She is eager to move, wishing to kiss Fangze, but she is worried about her elder brother.
To Tao Yan'er's questions, Wu Tiannan really answered every question, and maintained a modest and gentlemanly attitude, quite demeanor, but never mentioned that he had a wife.
After getting along for a while, Wu Tiannan feels like a spring breeze, and feels happy physically and mentally.
Tao Yan'er said 'Brother Wu', which made Wu Tiannan even more elated.
The brothers and sisters were definitely taken care of on the way. Some trivial matters can be described as helping out after running.
It's just that I don't know if I will take such care of other folks in Pingchuan County.
Sending the siblings all the way to their lodging in Fucheng, Wu Tiannan reluctantly bid farewell.
But in the days that followed, Wu Tiannan would visit the siblings almost every day...
Niu Youdao, who refined another amulet for teaching the Dharma, came out of the thatched cottage, and was greeted by Black Peony.
Niu Youdao waved his hand, indicating that there is no need to follow, and walked deep into the valley by himself.
Going up the stream, he finally stood by a pool. Niu Youdao stepped into the pool, and slowly sat cross-legged into the water, the water submerged up to his chest.
Close your eyes, cross your legs, and cast a spell.
Soon, ice slag appeared all over his body, and a circle of floating ice appeared around him.
Gradually, the area of the floating ice expanded, expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Not long after, the water in half of the pools solidified and froze into ice cubes with a diameter of one foot to envelop it. Under the bright sun, the ice surface was very cold.
After a while, the large ice mass with him as the center emitted hot air again, and the melting area of the ice mass rapidly expanded to the surroundings.
In the end, the thinned ice layer could not withstand the flowing water, crumbled and shattered, floating on the water and drifting downstream.
boom!
Niu Youdao suddenly rushed out of the water, and the water splashed into the sky.
Niu Youdao, who was in the water spray, slashed his left palm in the air, and a large piece of water spray on the left turned into hail and splashed down.
With a right palm strike, a large spray of water on the right quickly atomized, and a burst of white mist drifted away.
Niu Youdao landed on the surface of the water, standing on the surface of the water and floating, the sporadic hailstones hit the surface of the water, the floating and sinking large pieces of ice beads went away with the current, and the white mist curled up and dissipated.
The wet Niu Youdao smiled slightly, quite satisfied with the progress of his recent cultivation.
Now it seems that the amulet that Dong Guo Haoran gave him has really helped him a lot, otherwise there would be no such fast progress in practice.
The buzzing sound coming from his ears made him look back at the waterfall under the cliff in front of him. He turned around, walked lightly on the water, and walked towards the waterfall at a leisurely pace. The fog rose on his body and his clothes dried quickly.
The picture of a person walking on the waves with white smoke on his body looks a little weird in this valley.
At this moment, a figure flashed and shouted: "Master Dao!"
The one who came was Yuan Fang.
Niu Youdao didn't turn his head back, "I said, don't bother me for nothing important."
Yuanfang accompanied him on the shore and said, "News from Jinzhou."
Niu Youdao immediately dodged to the shore. He had told him not to disturb his cultivation because there was nothing important to do, but there were a few places he was watching closely, and the Jinzhou side, which had been arranged for a long time, was one of them.
If some troubles are not resolved, he will not be able to be at ease in the future, nor will he be able to cultivate with peace of mind.
"What's the situation?" Niu Youdao asked.
Yuan Fang said: "A famous doctor named Pu Yunfang from the Song Kingdom came to sit in a medical clinic in Jinzhou. Many people heard the news and went to get a diagnosis and treatment. There was a long queue outside the medical clinic, which disturbed Hai Ruyue."
Niu Youdao asked: "Did Fang Zhe stop him?"
Yuanfang: "As soon as the incident came out, Fang Zhe immediately met Hai Ruyue, and Zun Dao's instructions told Hai Ruyue that this Park Yunfang was arranged to go to Jinzhou Mansion. Other purposes could not cure Xiao Tianzhen's illness, which prevented her from calling people to the house for treatment. At the same time, Hai Ruyue was also asking when the Chiyang Zhu Guo agreed to find her. "
"It's fine if you stop it." Niu Youdao chuckled, his dissatisfaction with Hai Ruyue was not reassured, and a strange look appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I'm really calm, there has been no movement, I thought I made a mistake in my judgment, and finally touched the net, it seems that the good show is about to begin."
Whether it's the Ice and Snow Pavilion, the Beizhou side, or the Jinzhou, he has long been secretly waiting.
He was like a spider hiding behind a web, shrinking its fangs and remaining silent, remaining patient enough to wait for the moth to touch the web.
Although both spiders and moths are cautious, one is in the light and the other is in the dark, a contest between light and darkness.
"Let's go! Go and see Fei Changliu, head of Fei." Niu Youdao waved his hand, and took Yuan Fang away with him.
The center of Liuxianzong is temporarily in a cave that has been opened up. When the two arrived here, Niu Youdao turned his head to look at a disciple guarding the mountain, it was Cui Yuan.
Yuan Fang also glanced at Cui Yuan, and couldn't help but chuckle, the person involved knew some things well.
Cui Yuan turned his gaze to the side, feeling a little guilty and disturbed.
After being notified, the two soon met Fei Changliu.
Now that he is living under the fence, there is no reason for Master Fei to disappear.
Please sit down when we meet, Fei Changliu asks someone to serve tea, and after sitting down, he asks, "Aren't you practicing in closed-door training so that you won't be easily disturbed?"
Niu Youdao: "Come here and remind me that there should be some movement in the Ice and Snow Pavilion soon, and let your people cheer up and prick up their ears and eyes."
Fei Changliu frowned: "Are you sure?" The part of the people he left in the Ice and Snow Pavilion had been waiting for so long, and they were already a little impatient.
Niu Youdao nodded: "Sure!"
In fact, he was not sure whether Shao Pingbo would have a showdown at the Bingxue Pavilion, but he could always catch one place by casting a wide net.
"Understood, I will explain it to you." Fei Changliu responded with a slight nod, and then reminded again: "I have already received the news that Tianyumen's wine is not cheap, and a jar is worth thousands of gold, a jar of 1,000 gold coins. It is really huge profits. They are afraid that they will make a lot of money this time! Shouldn't you give the three of us an answer to what you promised?"
Sell so expensive? Niu Youdao was somewhat surprised, but since Tianyumen dared to do this, it must have been calculated and sure, and he had to find out more about the specific situation. "Don't worry about this, they will come to pick up the goods every month, and I will find a suitable opportunity to speak."
After chatting casually for a few words, the two left.
Seeing the two people coming out, Cui Yuan was a little panicked, because they were walking towards him, he didn't know what it meant, on their territory, where could he hide if he wanted to?
Approaching, Niu Youdao smiled and said, "Brother Cui, long time no see."
Cui Yuan glanced around and said in a low voice, "What do you want to do?"
Niu Youdao: "Relax, nothing will happen, we already know each other, it's okay to meet and say hello, you can just make up an excuse to fool us."
Cui Yuan: "I have a responsibility, so I will not accompany you!" Obviously, some are afraid to avoid it.
Niu Youdao said with a smile: "My friend, brother Cui probably doesn't want to see anything happen to me. If there is any abnormality in Liuxianzong, I hope brother Cui will remind you in time. If it is inconvenient to find me directly, you can go to Yuanfang, Yuan Gang, or Hei Mudan. If you have any difficulties, you can also find them. Don't worry, I will treat my friends well, and I will help you climb up in Liuxianzong if you have the opportunity."
Yuan Fang laughed again, at first he didn't understand why Dao Lord let this guy go, but now he understands.
He found that Daoist is very good at turning other people's people into his people. This Cui Yuan, that Yao Youliang, and the previous Lu Shengzhong seemed to be the same.
In fact, there is another one that he doesn't know, and it has been quietly placed in Beizhou without leaving any flaws!
