Chapter 496 Master Dao Is Here Again

Qiu Shan returned with suspicion.

As soon as he returned to his own courtyard, a disciple greeted him immediately, "Elder, Elder Chen from Tianyumen is looking for you." He pointed his finger.

Qiu Shan looked and found that Chen Tingxiu was waiting outside, he also saw him, and he had already walked over, cupping his fists away.

After Qiu Shan signaled his disciples to back down, he was actually a little impatient, and he still maintained his hospitality on the surface: "Brother Chen, what's the matter?"

Chen Tingxiu also knows that it is not good to bother people like this all the time, but there is no way. Niu Youdao is hiding in Wanshoumen, and he came here for Niu Youdao. He is not familiar with the place here, so he can only find Wanshoumen people help.

It was impossible for him to sit back and watch Niu Youdao do something that was not good for Tianyumen, he could only be cheeky.

"I'm really sorry, I'm not familiar with the place, so I can only ask brother Qiu again." Chen Tingxiu apologized repeatedly.

Qiu Shan: "Is it still a matter of Niu Youdao?"

Chen Tingxiu: "Brother Qiu is wise, that's it. I want to ask, has Niu Youdao seen Long Xiu, and do you know how their conversation is going?"

Qiu Shan: "Brother Chen, it's a bit too much. My Wanshoumen is not your Tianyumen's eyeliner, and it is impossible for your Tianyumen to monitor other guests who come to Wanshoumen."

"Understood." Chen Tingxiu cupped his hands repeatedly, and even bowed repeatedly.

Seeing him like this, Qiu Shan hesitated for a while, and finally gave him face, and raised a little bit, "I must have seen it, I don't know what we talked about, Wanshoumen will not eavesdrop on the conversation of visitors, but he and Long Xio should have met for a long time, more than half an hour."

"So long?" Chen Tingxiu was surprised.

Qiu Shan: "Brother Chen, let's stop here so we can do our own thing. This is the Wanshou Gate, not the Tianyu Gate. Outsiders are not allowed to do whatever they want here. It's best not to cause any trouble." There was a hint of warning in the words.

"Yes yes yes." Chen Tingxiu responded again and again, "Brother Qiu's kindness, Chen will definitely remember it in his heart."

Qiu Shan didn't keep him either.

On the way back, Chen Tingxiu was worried, but Long Xiu was not an ordinary person, it was not easy for ordinary monks to see him, what could make Niu Youdao occupy Long Xiu for so long?

Also, he put Niu Youdao's eye drops on Yi Shu in advance, but now it seems that it has no effect. According to the Yi Shu he knows, he should not be so talkative.

What he didn't know was that the appearance of Guan Fangyi and his acquaintance with Long Xiu suppressed Yi Shu and made his plan unexpected.

...

In the early morning, Zhou Tiezi packed up the guests' tableware after breakfast and left. Niu Youdao walked out of the yard and stood under the big tree on the edge of the mountain, looking at the scenery with his hands behind his back.

Not long after, as expected, Chao Shenghuai took advantage of this gap to appear again.

But this time, he didn't meet him directly, but flew past the mountain directly, as if he just happened to pass by here.

After watching him disappear from the mountains, Niu Youdao twisted the hand hanging in his sleeve, and he had already caught a paper ball that had been kneaded into small particles.

The ball of paper was scraped and flattened between the fingers, and when he raised his sleeve seemingly casually, he glanced at it and saw a line of words written on a piece of paper: opposite, weeping radish, beside the stream, playing in the water.

He raised his eyes and looked at the opposite side, and saw that there was indeed a vine hanging on the mountain wall of the mountain stream. He didn't know what Chao Shenghuai meant, but if people said that, there must be a reason.

The note hung down into the sleeve, and the finger force easily turned the note into powder.

Looking around, he waited for a while, but Zhou Tiezi, who had sent away the tableware, came back and said: "Brother Niu, the words have been brought for you, wait for the master to notify."

"Okay, thank you." Niu Youdao cupped his hands.

Zhou Tiezi smiled and waved his hands: "It's nothing, just a few words, don't be so polite."

Just when Yuan Gang came out of the gate, Niu Youdao raised his chin towards Yuan Gang: "I heard from Yuan Gang that brother Zhou's master died in an accident when he was out on business for the sect. Is Brother Zhou going to clean up alone?"

Speaking of this, a trace of sourness flashed across Zhou Tiezi's face, and he forced a smile and said: "Walking in the world of practice, there will inevitably be some ups and downs, and accidents are inevitable. I was taken in alone, and an accident happened before I could recruit juniors for me, so I was alone. In fact, it’s good to practice alone. Being able to be at ease in this troubled world is many times better than those casual cultivators outside. I am already very satisfied .”

This is purely self-consolation. If it is really good, he will not do odd jobs. No one will speak for him. He has been doing odd jobs all these years.

His lineage originated from Zhu Chicheng, the head of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, which was involved in the conflict of interests within the sect. It can be said that Zhu Xi was left alone.

Niu Youdao naturally knew that he was saying something reassuring. At a young age, he sees other people's beauty but he is called around. Anyone can order him around. How many young people can be willing? Nodding his head, he said: "Brother Zhou, you have a good attitude. However, I think Brother Zhou is handsome, and he is not a person who has lived under others for a long time."

Zhou Tiezi raised his hand and touched his cheek, and couldn't help but smile shyly, a little shy, and a little embarrassed to be praised.

His appearance is indeed not bad, white and tender, young and serious, a little fresh meat.

But what's the use of this, the way to climb up within the sect is also fiercely competitive, there is no one to help speak out, and naturally there is no chance to stand out. If it is going to be miserable, even this cleanliness cannot be guaranteed, and I guess it will be like this in my life.

Zhou Tiezi sighed in his heart, shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Niu is ridiculous."

Niu Youdao, however, looked sincere: "Brother Zhou, you don't need to be humble, I hit it off with Brother Zhou immediately, and I would like to sworn brothers with different surnames with Brother Zhou. I wonder if Brother Zhou would like to reward you?"

Yuan Gang couldn't help but look up at the sky, muttering in his heart, the Taoist master is here again.

"..." Zhou Tiezi was dumbfounded, thinking he had heard it wrong, "Sworn...worship?"

Niu Youdao said seriously: "That's right, it's not a joke!"

"This...this..." Zhou Tiezi stammered for a while, his face full of disbelief.

From the day he entered the Myriad Beasts Gate, except for the Vientiane City, he has never had contact with the outside world, and he has basically never stepped into the world of mortals.

When the master was alive, he would tell him some things about the practice world. After the master passed away, he could only read the sect records about the matters about the practice world, similar to the "Shangqing Supplementary Records" that Niu Youdao read in his early years. Most of the understanding of the practice world comes from these aspects.

As for the newly-emerged Niu Youdao, to be honest, he didn't know who he was at all. He only heard from the person who ordered the errand to mention that a person who was expelled from the Shang Qingzong had recently become famous.

And the guests he is responsible for entertaining are not high-level guests, and it is not his turn to contact more high-level guests.

But he still knows one thing, the status and status of the guests who can live in the Wanshoumen are not comparable to that of a low-level miscellaneous disciple like him.

After stammering for a long time, I finally said, "Isn't this appropriate?"

Niu Youdao asked: "Could it be that Brother Zhou looks down on me?"

"No, no, no." Zhou Tiezi hurriedly waved his hands to explain, "I have never heard of such a thing in Wanshoumen, and I don't know if disciples in the school and outsiders have to get the permission of the teacher's door to worship, can you allow me to ask for instructions first? ?”

"That's it!" Niu Youdao pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, you don't need to ask for instructions, you can't speak to your superiors, and it is easy to be questioned if you ask for instructions. Don't ask for instructions for now, lest people suspect that I am here During this period, I plotted against the law, so when I leave Wanshoumen, I will personally mention this matter to the senior management of Wanshoumen, how do you think Brother Zhou?"

After hearing this, Yuan Gang probably understood what Daoye meant, and Daoye was doing the work of opening roads in Fengshan and filling bridges when encountering water.

It is inconvenient to do things in Wanshoumen. No matter whether Zhou Tiezi is staring at their eyeliner this week, if he finds something abnormal, he will definitely report it to the higher authorities. As long as Zhou Tiezi is restrained, as long as Zhou Tiezi is easy to talk, there will be a lot of worries here. obstacles around you.

"This... this..." Zhou Tiezi hesitated, he was a little dazed when he encountered this kind of thing, he never dreamed that he would encounter such a thing.

Niu Youdao: "Brother Zhou is not willing?"

Zhou Tiezi: "I'm afraid I won't be able to climb high."

Niu Youdao: "Just ask if you want to."

Zhou Tiezi smiled bitterly: "As long as the master agrees, I will be fine."

"Okay, this matter is on me." Niu Youdao raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder, "I don't believe that the Wanshoumen will not give me any face at that time, and let my brother continue to be here. If you do odd jobs and serve people, you must at least give yourself a chance to get ahead, right?"

Hearing this, Zhou Tiezi woke up like a dream, joy flashed in his eyes, and he saw a glimmer of hope for his success.

Niu Youdao turned around and pointed to the mountain stream below, "Brother Zhou, the spring water in the mountain stream is so clear, I like it, so it's not taboo for me to go for a walk, right?"

Zhou Tiezi immediately assured: "As long as you don't run around, no one can say anything if you take a close look at the scenery. Don't worry, Brother Niu, nothing will happen."

After getting the guarantee, Niu Youdao flew down alone, wandering beside the mountain stream, squatting down from time to time to explore the cold water with his hands.

After a while, Chao Shenghuai's low-pitched voice came from behind the hanging vines, "Did you go to see Long Xiu from Xiaoyao Palace yesterday?"

Niu Youdao took a closer look, only to find that there seemed to be a gap behind the vine, and Chao Shenghuai probably got in from nowhere. Pacing back and forth by the stream with hands clasped behind his back, "Take care of your own business, don't worry about it, you shouldn't worry about it."

Chao Shenghuai: "I warn you, don't act recklessly, otherwise no one will feel better."

Niu Youdao: "I know, I won't mess around, I will give you time, so you can put your heart in your stomach. By the way, I went to see Long Xiu yesterday, and it was delayed for a long time. Since you paid attention, you know it is what reason?"

Chao Shenghuai: "I can't go to Long Xiu's side to watch. I also heard that you went to see Long Xiu. I don't know why there is a delay. But I heard that an elder from Tianyumen in Nanzhou also came yesterday. , also went to visit Long Xiu, but Long Xiu didn't see him, only saw Long Xiu's apprentice, I wonder if it has something to do with this matter?"
