At night, at the invitation of Liu Changlu, Li Tang, who had nowhere to go, followed him to a three-entry courtyard with an excellent location in Yongping City. Just looking at this courtyard, it is no longer something that a small family can possess. What's more, it is still in the prime location in the center of the city, which is even more valuable.
Liu Changlu kindly invited Li Tang, and Li Tang had no reason to refuse, but at the moment he was extremely sleepy, too lazy and weak, and they didn't talk too much along the way, Liu Changlu had no choice but to quickly lead Li Tang into the bedroom, and finally touched the bed Li Tang couldn't help but fell asleep and fell asleep, ignoring Yuanwai Liu who hadn't walked out of the room and wanted to say something to him.
When he woke up, it was already afternoon. Li Tang shook his slightly aching head with his hands. He was really tired. On the table were the morning food and lunch brought by the servants of Liu's house. , A thick layer of oil film has formed on the surface of the porridge.
The matter of cultivation is originally a meticulous object that has been studied and practiced for a long time. How can it be the same as before. He debuted as a spirit pond, bathed in the water to become a nascent baby, and the imperial decree lifted the prison and entered the heavens. If the cultivation is really so simple , people in the world will definitely rack their brains to create adventures, people's hearts are very complicated, if there is a bit of viciousness, then the whole world will be blackened into a ball.
Fortunately, Huixian gave him a helping hand last night, otherwise, if he used his own vitality to cultivate, it would be impossible to say that the Bodhi Dao Heart would suck it up, which meant that he might not even be able to reach the Nascent Soul. The little people in the quasi-dantian will be drawn into golden balls, and it is hard to say that they will fall to the golden core state.
Even if it is a castle in the air, Henry Zhang's ability is indeed very powerful. He can build vitality out of thin air, without a foundation, and without a trace. The most important point is that when he and Li Houzong were fighting with sword sticks in the Chu family, he It is also a Nascent Soul Realm, and I didn¡¯t feel any lack of energy during the competition. This is the most unique point of Henry Zhang. It is really amazing to send it out of thin air without losing its weight.
After Li Tang casually messed up the things on the table, he asked the servants of Liu's house and found out that Liu Changlu had already returned to the Wujin Mansion in the countryside, and besides one member, there were still many properties in Yongping City. But he doesn't like to live in the hustle and bustle of the city, he only loves the quiet and secluded countryside, and he is also an interesting person. Li Tang laughed and stepped out of the gate of Liu's house, ready to go for a walk around the street.
The curfew set by Qingcang is only set for the border area. A city like Yongping City does not have a curfew. It was already afternoon when Li Tang went out. If it was Cangzhou, the street vendors should have already started to clean up. Get up, put those empty baskets and other things into the small trolley, and be ready to go home at all times. Yongping City is different. There are many vendors who have good business and are facing shortages and immediately send people to pick up the goods at home. The vehicles that came to deliver the goods seemed to be busy on the street for a while.
After wandering around, he came to the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda that accompanied Huixian yesterday. At this time, the entrance of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda was noisy and noisy, with countless people crowded there, each with a broom and dustpan in their hands, watching They got up to clean the pagoda, but a middle-aged man wearing an official robe and a heron patch blocked the door to prevent them from entering.
"Lu Tongpan, I will come to sweep the tower today, why don't you let us in!"
"That's right, Mr. Tongpan has no conscience. Yesterday Master Huixian donated ten feet of Buddha's light in the Bodhi Dojo, which added a lot of Buddha's protection to our Yongping City out of thin air. The Master proposed to clean the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. How can only the Master do it?" Clean up such a big tower, let us in quickly!"
"Lu Tongpan just came to Yongping not long ago. He doesn't know the rules of our Yongping City. Yongping City is a 'Buddha City'. My lord can't stop us from loving the Buddha!"
¡¡¡¡
The weather in early autumn was already hot, and the babbling voice made the middle-aged Tongjuan's forehead drip with sweat, but he was not making trouble for no reason. In fact, since he heard that last night Huixian brought two people to personally After sweeping the tower, he led the guards to control the field overnight. At night, he leaned against the tower with his soldiers and prepared to rest. However, all the changes last night made them feel lingering.
First, a large number of snakes and rats crawled out along the window door, and these people were so shocked that they practiced and retreated. Some timid people even gave up their picks. There was nothing to do, Lu Tongpan went back and called a group of people to come over, and then When the Buddha's light appeared, a beam of light fell from the sky. Some devout Buddhist believers knelt down on the spot to pray for blessings, and then turned away without obeying orders, saying that they did such bad things to stop believers from entering and sweeping the pagoda. No prostration.
Just like that, Lu Tongpan called several groups of people in a row, and finally got together a dozen or twenty people to form a circle around the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. The sky was bright, and two people came out of the pagoda without looking back. ?.
"Actually, it didn't take long. I was originally a Beijing official in the capital. Because I did something that the emperor didn't like last year, I was rejected by the court and sent to Yongping to be the general judge of this term. Alas, Your Majesty Since I fell ill in late autumn last year, it seems like a different person. I don¡¯t listen to the advice of the officials of cultural relics and go my own way, and many people have suffered a lot because of this.¡± Lu Mingcheng drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, then sighed, and then Pour each a bowl of wine.
"It doesn't matter if you are not an official in the capital. In the capital, a king is like a tiger. You can't tell when you will suffer a big loss. It's better to come out. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Someone is watching, Master Tongpan, what I said is right." Li Tang said this deliberately, just to see Lu Tongpan's performance, just blocking people in front of the tower is not enough to show that this person has a good character It's bad, but between the dinner and drink, unintentional actions can give insight into a person's character.
"Little brother, why do you say that, serving as an official will benefit one party? This is the eternal good saying of the sages. If you are an official and don't make decisions for the people, then what kind of dog officials are you? It¡¯s not as good as going home and holding a baby.¡±
"My lord can say that, I am very pleased, as if what my teacher said is for the sake of the common people." Li Tang laughed.
"Isn't your teacher accompanying Huang Zongxi?"
Li Tang asked in surprise: "Master Lu knows the teacher?"
"Hey, how can I not recognize that we were candidates who went to Beijing together to rush for the exam. We hit it off right away and talked very happily. He won the first prize and I won the second place. He went back to teach and left me alone in the court. I have been an official here, and we have been exchanging letters over the years, but the official affairs are complicated, and I have never visited my old brother. If you say that, are you from Lingxi Town?"
Li Tang smiled and said: "Master Lu is right or wrong. I have lived in Lingxi Town for more than ten years, but my ancestral home is not from Cangzhou, so I have never had the chance to come out to see it. Why don't you guess who I am and how I am. "
Lu Mingcheng tapped the table with his right hand lightly, making a "thumping" sound, and then said: "If I guess correctly, you should be the son of Li Zongye and Li Guogong. You should send Li Tang and Li Jinli, who are nicknamed carp talents."
"Master Tongju has good eyesight, and he can recognize this subordinate's identity at a glance. I admire, admire."
"Everywhere, my old brother Huang often mentioned you in his letters before, saying that you are the best student he taught, so I have an impression of you. When I saw you today, it really is Yushu Linfeng, who is handsome and handsome. , I look like a fairy, don¡¯t call me an adult, it looks heretic, call me Uncle Lu when there is no one else.¡±
"Haha, uncle won the award. It's not as good as you said. It's just that I read a few more books and watched a few more years." Li Tang asked curiously, holding a piece of meat in the dish: "Lu Uncle, Buddhist disciples are not all vegetarians, Yongping City is known as the Buddha City, how can there be meat here?"
"It's true that the monks in the temple don't eat meat, but you can't stop those laymen who are practicing at home from eating meat. As long as it is the meat of the three cleanses, there is no problem. I don't see killing, and I don't hear killing. I don't like it." Killing, the rules have changed, so most of the butchers in Yongping are from other places, and sometimes they have to send a chicken to the butcher for killing at home, which is really troublesome." Lu Mingcheng finished his wine in a sip, and the dishes on the table I was almost eaten by myself, and then I remembered that my nephew Li Tang didn't eat much food.
"Is my nephew going tonight?"
"Uncle, I'm temporarily staying in Liu Yuanwai's private house in Yongping on Liuchang Road. If there is anything wrong, I really don't."
Lu Mingcheng thought for a while, and then said: "In this case, come with me. My second son Zhongwen is about the same age as you, but a little younger than you. Let him show you around. I get tired easily, so I won¡¯t accompany you young people.¡±
"Then respect is worse than obedience." Li Tang secretly rejoiced, and happened to have nowhere to go, so let's take a look around with his brother, and this look caused a grievance.
