Tan Pingzhi said with a smile: "The leader is a noble man. Because he exorcises evil spirits and catches ghosts, and spreads kindness, it is inevitable that he will have some enemies. I heard that he has experienced several assassinations in Jiangnan before, so there are inevitably some guards around him."
Liu Yu curled his lips: "According to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, private individuals are not allowed to carry weapons in important areas near the capital. Jingkou is an important town. Is it really okay to openly allow so many disciples to carry swords?"
A cold voice came from the side: "Before my leader came to Jingkou, he had a special decree from the court. In order to protect the leader, he was allowed to bring one hundred disciples as an armed guard. Does this donor have any questions?"
Liu Yu's expression changed. He followed the sound and saw a fair-skinned Taoist in his thirties, wearing a purple Taoist robe, walking over with more than a dozen sword-carrying disciples.
The Taoist leader had handsome features and a long black beard that reached his chest, but he did not have much of an immortal demeanor. There was an unspeakable look of fierceness between his brows.
Tan Pingzhi said quickly: "Brother Liu, let me introduce you. This is Sun Ensun Dajijiu. He is the chief disciple of leader Sun Tai and his nephew. He is responsible for the leader's safety and security."
He turned to Sun En and said: "Sun Jijiu, this is Liu Yu and Liu Lizheng whom I told you last night. It was he who acted righteously last night, beat Diao Hong away and saved us."
Sun En said expressionlessly: "The leader has some friendship with the Diao Kui Diao Governor. Those who enter my Five Pecks of Rice are all brothers. Even if Liu Lizheng doesn't take action, we will intercede for you. Fellow Taoist Tan, it seems that you brought
Liu Lizheng is not very interested in my teaching."
A clear voice sounded from behind Sun En: "Dajijiu, I'm afraid I can't blame Liu Lizheng. After all, Lu Dajijiu (Lu Xue) rebelled here and killed many people in Jingkou. Not only Liu Lizheng, but also other Jingkou people."
People still can’t let go of the religion, so please understand.”
Liu Yu followed the sound and saw a man in his early twenties, fair-skinned, who looked more like a scholar. He was dressed like a guard, with two strands of long hair hanging down from the corners of his hair, tied into a bun.
Different from ordinary sword-holding disciples, this sword-holding disciple carried his sword on his back. He smiled at Liu Yu and saluted: "Liu Lizheng, maybe you have forgotten me. My surname is Lu and my name is Lu Xun.
"
Liu Yu opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "Lu Xun? Are you Lu Xun's nephew? The Lu Xun who played in the mud with me since childhood?"
This Lu Xun is Lu Xun's nephew, and he is also a branch of the Fanyang Lu family in the north. At that time, the Lu family moved south, but because it was too late to cross the river, the ancestor Lu Zhan (who was the great hero who resisted the Hu people in the north at that time) was the same as Liu Kun.
Brother) also served as an official in the Zhao State established by the Hu people after being captured. Therefore, the Lu family was regarded as a low-level noble family and was not allowed to hold high positions.
Therefore, seeing that there was no hope of getting ahead, Lu Xun simply gritted his teeth and joined the Tianshi Tao. As the younger nephew of the Lu family, Lu Xun was a close match with Liu Yu, who was born in the county meritorious family, and they had played together since childhood.
At that time, Lu Xun rebelled and his entire family was executed. Lu Xun was exempted from the crime because of his youth and was picked up by the Celestial Master. He had been separated from Liu Yu for several years, but he never thought that this childhood friend would be here today.
meet.
Lu Xun smiled and nodded: "Yes, I didn't expect that you would still remember me after so many years. After my Lu family got into a big disaster, Master Sun followed his master's order and traveled around here, taking away all the families who were involved in the incident.
I am the underage nephew of my Taoist friend, and the night I left, you came and gave me a little wooden horse."
Liu Yu sighed and his expression turned gloomy: "Back then, you and I were country boys. As the sons of scholars, you and Fatty were the only ones willing to play with me. Growing up, you two were the only ones who didn't know how to play.
You called me by my nickname with those country urchins. I didn’t expect that after more than ten years of not seeing each other, you would actually become a high-level Celestial Master disciple.”
Tan Pingzhi said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Lu Chijian and Brother Liu were childhood friends. It's really unexpected. It seems that Brother Liu, you are at the right place today!"
Liu Yu looked at the sword on Lu Xun's back and said, "Are you holding a sword? Are you specifically guarding Master Sun?"
Sun En nodded and softened his tone: "Yes, in my Tianshi Tao, the guardian of the leader is also his direct disciple. He has been with the leader since he was a child, learning Taoism and swordsmanship. After he became an adult, he preached everywhere and made contributions.
If so, it will be promoted to the sacrificial wine and the great sacrificial wine in various places.”
Lu Xun said with a smile: "Senior Brother Sun was the leader's chief sword-wielding disciple back then. Most of my martial arts and Taoism were taught by Senior Brother Sun on behalf of my master."
At this point, his expression became gloomy, "If it hadn't been for the disaster that happened to my family, I would never have dreamed of leaving Jingkou, but this departure has actually made me happy. Maybe this is what Taoism says,
Good fortune and misfortune must be determined by God's will."
Liu Yu smiled slightly, raised his hands and saluted, "That's really congratulations to Brother Lu. I wish you smooth sailing and success in the Celestial Master's Way."
Another rough voice came from one side: "Huh, we are all brothers in our divine religion. We joined the divine religion to cultivate immortality and benefit the world, not to get promoted and get rich like ordinary people."
Liu Yu looked at the speaker and saw a giant man over eight feet tall standing next to Lu Xun. He also carried a big sword on his back. He was about the same height and build as himself, and his face was
His beard was all over his face, and his age was unclear. His eyes were cold and gleaming. He stood with his arms folded, his chin in one hand, and he was looking at himself up and down.
Sun En raised the corners of his lips and said, "Daofu, this Liu Li is a local official. Please speak politely and don't be arrogant."
The giant man laughed: "It doesn't matter, we are old acquaintances, Liu Jinu, do you still remember Sanlang Xu?"
Liu Yu's nose twitched and sighed: "So it's you! Has your front tooth grown out?"
The giant man grinned, only one yellow tooth was visible, and only one of his front teeth was missing. He looked at the wind and said: "Seeing you, my Xu Daofu's teeth hurt. What do you think of the old debts of more than ten years?
?”
Tan Pingzhi opened his mouth in surprise: "Xu Chijian, did you and Brother Liu have any issues before?"
The giant man's bull's-eyes as big as copper bells almost popped out of their sockets. There was a fierce light in these eyes, staring straight at Liu Yu, and the flesh on his face was beating. With that look, he wanted to kill Liu Yu.
Eaten Yusheng alive.
And there was a hint of hatred in his voice: "It's not just for the holidays, every day when I eat and sleep, I think about how I can knock out two front teeth of Liu, so that I, Xu Daofu, can get rid of his teeth."
Hatred in my heart!"
