The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 955: Laughing and Asking Where the Customer Comes From

Gu Qing could definitely bring his two wives back with the sword, the speed is much faster, but after returning to his hometown after many years, he wanted to travel all the way back.

Of course, it may also have something to do with the four characters of being close to the hometown.

So now he needs a carriage.

The Gu family who received the news in advance, from the patriarch to the child less than two months old, were all waiting for him on the shore.

The current Gu family is still a big family in Tiannan. Judging from the current status of Shenmo Peak in the Qingshan Sect, it seems that it will last at least a thousand years.

Seeing Lu Qing's figure, tens of thousands of people knelt down like a tide, but there was no sound. The scene was extremely spectacular.

The carriage behind the crowd was even more eye-catching.

Lu Qing waved his hands, without saying anything, and took the two wives into the carriage.

The roof of this carriage is hollow, inlaid with a very precious crystal, and the windows are also very large. As for the materials of the body and the breed of the horses that pull the carriage, there is no need to mention it.

The carriage is very spacious, with two soft couches facing each other, the floor is covered with expensive carpets, there is fine wine and tea on the coffee table, and various snacks inside.

Zhen Tao practiced Taoism in Shuiyue Nunnery since she was a child, and wandered on the sea for hundreds of years, living a comfortable and beautiful life, but she has never experienced this kind of prosperity in the world, so she can't help being a little surprised.

Empress Dowager Hu has lived in the palace for a long time and has seen the prosperity of the world. She also thinks that this carriage is too extravagant, Xiaoyi reminded: "Come back after such a long time... there must be many people staring at us... Is it not good to be so ostentatious?"

Lu Qing lay comfortably on the couch, looking at the tree shadows and white clouds that kept sweeping back in the skylight, thinking about the past, Yoyo said: "Don't be afraid, this belongs to Master."

...

...

The carriage left the East China Sea and entered Moqiu.

The official road outside Guocheng Temple was still full of carriages and tents.

Under the service of folk doctors and officials, the medical monks walked slowly between these carriages and tents.

The world has not changed much, at least for ordinary people, birth, old age, sickness and death are still the same as usual, but there have been some changes after all, for example, the number of patients who suffered trauma has decreased a lot, which shows that in recent years, the Jing Dynasty has managed the world quite well.

The carriage traveled between states and counties in this way, which was not considered a private visit, because the family of three did not have any identities now. Looking at the peaceful world outside the window, Gu Qing was very relieved, thinking that although he didn't manage Qingshan well according to the teacher's instructions, everything was still pretty good.

More than ten days later, the carriage broke into a fog that was so thick that it could not be dispersed. There was a faint voice in front of it, and it turned out to be a town.

When we return to Yunji Town, we must not miss one very important thing. Instead of going to the scenic garden outside the town like those tourists, we go to that restaurant to eat hot pot.

I don't know how many generations the owner of the restaurant has passed down. The current owner is a young man who has occasionally received a few Qingshan fairy masters. He is also familiar with the pamphlet his father took out before his death. He recognized the carriage when he saw it.

Lu Qing got off the carriage, looked at the rather antique restaurant, and asked with a smile, "Do you recognize this carriage?"

The young master bravely glanced at him and said, "Is the surname of the immortal master Gu?"

Gu Qing was even more surprised, and said, "How did you recognize this?"

The young master said honestly: "Father gave me a booklet before he left, with the faces of several immortal masters painted on it."

Gu Qing was very interested and said, "Can you let me have a look?"

...

...

The red and white mandarin duck pot is quietly waiting for the moment of boiling.

Empress Dowager Hu and Zhen Tao stared at the hot pot, shouting in their hearts to come on - of course it was the half pot of soup they bet on for themselves.

Zhen Tao thinks that the clear soup is easier to boil. Empress Dowager Hu doesn't understand why, but she subconsciously thinks it should be a red pot.

Gu Qing took the booklet and slowly flipped through it, looking at the familiar faces on the yellowish paper, and remained silent...Zhao Layue, Liu Shisui, himself, Yuan Qu, Zhuo Rusui, A Piao, Que Niang... Some have already ascended, some have been here all the time, and only he came back after many years.

The private room was very quiet, and the atmosphere was naturally a little depressing. The young owner became more and more uneasy, and said in a trembling voice: "If something is wrong, I will burn the booklet."

"They're not dead yet, why burn them?" Gu Qing said calmly.

At this time, the booklet just turned to the last page, and there was a picture of a sword fairy in white, but his face was blank.

He thought silently: "Master, how is your old man?"

...

...

The carriage remained in Yunji Town as it did more than five hundred years ago, and it was taken care of by the Gu family.

Gu Qing took his two wives and stepped on the sword, took out a sword card that had not been used for many years, passed through the Qingshan formation, and came to the sky above Xijianxi. In a few days, that big event will start, guests from many sects have arrived ahead of time, disciples from various peaks are busy entertaining guests at Xilai Peak, amidst the chaos, no one noticed his return.

It's interesting to say that this is the first time Empress Dowager Hu has visited the Green Mountain Sect, so she can't help being a little nervous. Maybe to hide this tension, she looked at the golden whip-like stream below, and asked, "Is this the magic whip that real people used to beat immortals back then?"

Gu Qing answered yes, and then introduced her to other peaks, such as Shiyue Peak's pills, books, Xilai Peak's files, Tianguang Peak's sea of ​​clouds, and Qingrong Peak that you should never go to. Zhen Tao had been to Qingshan before, and she didn't need an introduction, so her eyebrows were raised a little higher, wondering if she still remembered the previous quarrel in the restaurant.

Not long after, Cosmos Front landed on the top of Shenmo Peak. I don't know if the sword is also alive, but the cold breath became warmer.

Yuan Qu knew that he was coming today, so he waited by the cliff in advance, smiled and said: "I met you, brother, how is the hot pot?"

I haven't seen him for more than five hundred years, and I just said hello indifferently. It's just that the junior brother who was like a monkey back then is now a white star on his temples, and his demeanor is much calmer. Lu Qingquan was a little emotional, and said: "Okay, okay, let me introduce you, you have seen it before, these are your two sisters-in-law."

Just as he was talking, he unexpectedly heard the argument between Empress Dowager Hu and Zhen Tao.

"Obviously the red soup should be served first, how can it be the white soup?"

"Then sister, you have to explain the truth, and you have seen it clearly before. It is obvious that you opened it together. I am wrong, and you are the same."

"Hey, this is Junior Brother Yuanqu, right? You have been in charge of Shangde Peak for many years, and you are the master of Qingshan Sword Law. It is the most fair decision. Tell me something."

Gu Qing's face was a bit ugly, how could he let Yuan Qu judge, he waved his hand to signal the two wives to visit the cave mansion, and he dragged Yuan Qu to the upper floor of the Taoist hall.

Yuan Qu looked at him with a half-smile and said, "We ate so many hot pot meals back then, and we all knew that the red soup should be boiled first, why did the two sisters-in-law watch it boil together?"

Gu Qing said without changing his expression: "A bowl of water should be leveled, and a pot of soup should be boiled together."

This sentence reveals a clear message, he must have made a move at that time.

A master of the heavenly realm actually used the supreme magic on hot pot, where is the reasoning?

Yuan Qu said helplessly, "Brother, why are you here?"

Lu Qing didn't want to discuss this issue, but instead asked: "How are you and Yushan?"

Yuan Qu said: "We are doing well. My daughter is now in Nansong Pavilion. Although she is not a natural Daoist, she has better qualifications than us. She should enter Xijian Pavilion next year."

Ascetics generally have to make sure that the road is hopeless and see the end before they choose to leave their blood.

But this practice has gradually changed with the appearance of Taiping Daoist.

Yuanqu and Yushan gave birth to this daughter, partly because of their deep affection, and partly because the brothers and sisters at Shangde Peak were very eager to welcome a female disciple—in the past hundreds of years of Qingshan Chengjian Conference, there is still no female disciple willing to join Shangdefeng.

Gu Qing has been overseas for these years, but he has maintained correspondence with Qingshan. Knowing these things, he didn't worry about his junior brother, but he couldn't figure it out, and said, "Those senior brothers are already elders, why are they still messing around like this?"

Yuan Qu said helplessly: "Shangde Peak has turned into a black jade plate, Lord Ye Xiao lies on it every day, and my brothers and sisters don't even have a cave, so what are you doing idle?"

There is a saying in the practice world of Chaotian Continent, it is called Qingshan Nine Peaks, all of which are Shangde Peaks.

That's because Daoist Taiping, Daoist Jingyang, Liu Ci, and Yuan Qijing all came from this peak.

But in the battle between Immortal White Blade and Xue Ji Kuangshi that year, Shangde Peak was directly destroyed, and the current lineage of Shangde Peak really feels like an orphan from Qingshan.

Gu Qing was a little surprised, and said, "Didn't it be decided to establish another peak that year?"

Yuan Qu said: "Uncle Chi Yan led everyone to search among the peaks for more than ten years, but they didn't find a good spiritual vein."

Gu Qing said: "Didn't Fu Wang say at that time, let Shangde Peak go to the West Sea? There is quite a lot of spiritual energy there, and the place is huge."

"Shangde Peak is in charge of the sword law and is responsible for the review of the disciples in the sect. The West Sea is so far away, what should we do if we move there?" Yuan Qu raised his eyebrows and said: "Besides, why let us go? Why can't we let Xilai Peak move there, and then give us Xilai Peak?"

Gu Qing understood it now, and thought to himself that this matter was too troublesome, fortunately he ran fast back then.

"At the earliest time, Uncle Guangyuan was not very good at managing affairs, and he was not good at dealing with these matters. There was no result after arguing. Later, Zhuo Rusui became the head of the sect, and he turned into a Yuan Gui. His words were nice. You can give me Tianguang Peak...can I ask for it?"

It was obvious that Yuan Qu also thought of Gu Qing. Listening to the conversation between the two sisters-in-law in the cave, he looked at him and sighed, "Why do you say you are doing this? If you hadn't left, the head of the sect must belong to you. You have already dealt with these matters properly. It's not as troublesome as it is now, and you might even be able to ascend to the top."

Gu Qing said: "Everything is uncertain, who can say for sure? Just like He Zhan and Sese, whoever thought they were more in love than gold back then, how is the result now?"

Yuan Qu thought about the couple and felt a headache, and suddenly heard the news from the sword book that a distinguished guest had arrived, so he had to leave temporarily, and said: "Brother, you should rest on the peak, and you can go to other peaks for a stroll. After I finish my work, I will come back and have a side-fire with you."

Lu Qing waved his hand and let him go to work on his own.

The zigzag plum sword emerged from the edge of the cliff and went to Tianguang Peak.

Gu Qing walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the peaks protruding from the sea of ​​clouds, silently thinking if he wanted to go for a walk, where should he go?

Back then he knew quite a few fellow students in Qingshan, but not many are still alive now.

Lei Yijing and Yao Songshan left more than a hundred years ago, Guo Nanshan is still alive, but his older brothers Gu Han and Lin Yuanzhi have also left.

Even these three generations of disciples have gone so far, let alone those teachers.

Elder Mochi and Uncle Meili passed away many years ago, Fang Jingtian died without a sound, the world had an induction, but it didn't attract much attention.

Uncle Chi Yan lost his arm in the West Sea, but his practice was not delayed, and he lived a few more years instead.

One hundred and seventy years ago, Immortal Guangyuan failed to ascend, and turned into a breeze on the stone beam between Shiyue Peak and Xilai Peak.

Qingfeng sent the sword into Yunxing Peak, and the former swordsman said goodbye to Qingshan.

People are gone, what are you going to do in those peaks?

Empress Dowager Hu and Zhen Tao came out of the cave, looked at his figure standing on the edge of the cliff, felt so desolate, subconsciously shut their mouths.

In fact, they quarreled all the way from the restaurant to Shenmo Peak, because they were worried that Gu Qing would be too sentimental.

Earlier, when the ship hadn't arrived in Penglai, they noticed that there was something wrong with his emotions.

Living together for hundreds of years, how can you not feel this.

Just when they were about to go forward to comfort him, a monkey's cry suddenly came from the bottom of the cliff.

At the beginning, it was just a little monkey barking, full of surprise and curiosity, because Shenmo Peak hadn't had any guests for a long time.

Immediately afterwards, several big monkeys yelled, and they found that the man standing by the cliff had a feeling of being one with Shenmo Peak, and he didn't look like a guest at all.

The monkey's calls became more and more dense, and the sound of the treetops being shaken became louder and louder, just like the pines.

The corners of Lu Qing's lips gradually raised, and he said, "Long time no see."

Hundreds of monkeys emerged from the forest, squatting on the ground, or rubbing their backs against the rocks, looking at him curiously.

From their point of view, this man is very strange, they should have never seen him before, but why does he have a sense of familiarity?

Thinking of monkeys as human beings, is this probably the so-called collective unconsciousness?

A little monkey plucked up his courage, jumped to the cliff, and called out to Lu Qing a few times.

Empress Dowager Hu and Zhen Tao looked at each other, both a little confused, thinking what are these monkeys going to do?

"I... don't come from anywhere." Lu Qing said seriously to the little monkey, "I was originally from here."
