Fu Si, who had led the way, came back to resume his life.
When Duan Zhengchun heard this, he couldn't help but look at Lu Heng.
"What does Lu Daochang mean?"
"Of course, the faster the better. We don't want to ride in the carriage."
Lu Hengyue was so indifferent that Duan Zhengchun couldn't probe his thoughts.
He took several horses from Zhu Danchen's hand.
"In this case, Director Lu, let's ride horses to Dali. I'm afraid that the emperor may be concerned about this, so after hearing about it, Director Lu will give you a banquet."
Lu Heng waved his hand and refused.
"No, if we use Qinggong, it will be faster than riding a horse."
"It just so happens that it can clear up the muscles and bones. Prince Duan can just go on his own."
"this."
Duan Zhengchun didn't expect that Lu Heng would refuse, and he looked a little confused, thinking that Lu Heng was too rich.
How did he know that those standing beside them were all invincible masters in the martial arts world.
"In that case, please go ahead and drive!"
Watch Duan Zhengchun get on his horse and ride away with a few riders.
Lu Heng just smiled.
Under the horrified gazes of the soldiers, the three of them disappeared without a trace like phantoms.
Xuan San was the only one, so he had no choice but to follow the convoy and continue towards Dali City.
Fortunately, the distance is not too far.
Duan Zhengchun rode for a long time, and when he looked back, he was dumbfounded.
Lu Heng, Zhuque and Yang Xiaoqin danced gracefully on the main road.
That kind of lightness is indescribably pleasing to the eye.
You must know that the speed of horses is not slow, but it is obvious that Lu Heng was not talking nonsense just now, and the speed of Qinggong is not slower than horses.
Look at their leisurely manner and their ability to chat.
It made Duan Zhengchun's head buzz.
"My lord, these people have extraordinary skills and are far stronger than us. It would be great if this person could stay in Dali and assist the prince."
"At this time, don't talk nonsense. I can naturally see it, but you also know very well that there are many martial arts masters in the Central Plains. Yu'er likes Buddhist scriptures to the point of obsession. It may not be easy for him to learn martial arts."
Zhu Danchen and Fu Sigui couldn't help but smile bitterly when they heard this.
The Duan family, as a member of the royal family of Dali, came from a martial arts family and had never forgotten their martial arts practice.
Even when I go to the Central Plains, when I meet people from the Jianghu world, they are mainly from the Duan family of Dali, rather than leaving the imperial official positions to outsiders.
In the martial arts world, the reputation is pretty good.
This is why Lu Heng was able to see past the situation and use the other party's royal status to visit Tianlong Temple.
Half an hour later, outside the gate of Dali City.
Duan Zhengchun took out his token, showed it, and entered the city.
This time, the only thing I didn't do was take a carriage back to the city, which made the defenders apologize for a while.
"Daozhang Lu, you really opened my eyes. This light skill is so handsome."
"Prince Duan has overestimated his merits. It's just a small skill, not worth mentioning."
Enter the city and go directly to the palace.
Lu Heng told Zhuque and the others to rent an inn in the city first, and then asked Xuan San to pick him up at Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Don’t choose to bring your family.
It was also because Yang Xiaoqin was planning to go shopping on the street with Suzaku.
"Your Majesty, you are finally back. Your Majesty is waiting for you at the court hall."
"Prime Minister Gao, why don't you wait for me at the palace gate? This is the Taoist priest Lu Heng who saved my life and killed the four evil men."
Gao?
Could it be Gao Shengtai?
Lu Heng raised his eyes and saw that he was an old man.
He slightly cupped his hands, bowed his head, and said, "The poor Taoist Wudang Taoist Lu Heng has met Prime Minister Gao."
"It's a sin for you to wait here."
"Taoist Master Lu saved the prince, why should you be so polite? Your Majesty is already waiting at the court hall. Your Majesty, please, everyone please."
As a close minister of the Duan family.
Gao Shengtai's martial arts is not strong, and his strength is only between first and second rate.
Duan Zhengchun made a prelude and introduced the palace along the way, but none of them aroused the slightest interest in Lu Heng.
It seemed that he was not very interested.
No one else said anything.
After all, the friendship is still superficial, just get the business done, there is no need to involve too much.
Entered the court hall.
But on the dragon chair, there was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a restrained aura, but a bit of an emperor's air.
When he saw Duan Zhengchun entering, he laughed and scolded: "You went to the Central Plains to cause mischief again. You are such a big man, why are you always out of tune? If you don't tell the four evil men to look for you, they will destroy the Duan family's orthodoxy."
"If it weren't for the help of noble people, I might never see my brother again."
Duan Zhengchun didn't dare to talk nonsense.
But I am really afraid of this royal brother.
Duan Zhengming looked at Lu Heng and said: "You are Wudang Taoist priest Lu Heng. You look young, but your martial arts skills can suppress Duan Yanqing and save my emperor's brother. Whatever you want, as long as I, Dali, can satisfy it, let me tell you."
listen."
Lu Heng squinted his eyes for a long time, then shook his head and said, "Martial arts students have nothing to ask for. I want it, but you can't give it to me."
"As for saving Prince Duan, it was just because Yun Zhonghe wanted to bully my wife and seek his own death."
Seeing that Lu Heng was neither humble nor arrogant, and had no demands, Duan Zhengming felt a little grateful.
How could he know.
The money in Lu Heng's hands is more than their tax revenue in Dali in ten years.
It is indeed difficult for Dharma eyes to see ordinary yellow and white things.
"Ahem, Brother Emperor, I didn't send someone to inquire. Daoist Master Lu intends to go to Tianlong Temple to visit Master Kurong. You think it's better than this. Let's find time to go to Tianlong Temple to pay homage to the ancestor of Dali."
"Oh, Master Lu, aren't you a Taoist priest? Why do you want to go to Tianlong Temple?"
Duan Zhengming was a little curious.
"To tell you the truth, I heard that Tianlong Temple has a martial arts called the Six Meridians Divine Sword. I traveled around the world and was curious about some peerless martial arts. I wanted to challenge Tianlong Temple to see if I could have a chance to see this skill.
"
"Please Emperor Baoding take a look and help Mr. Lu make this declaration of war."
As soon as he said this, Lu Heng handed the challenge letter to Gao Shengtai, who had given it to Emperor Baoding.
Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun looked a little unhappy.
Especially Duan Zhengchun, although he knew why Lu Heng went to Tianlong Temple, he didn't expect that what Lu Heng said was a challenge.
"Brother Emperor, perhaps this is not what Director Lu meant."
"Don't explain, it's just a competition of martial arts. A poor person will not hurt anyone."
Lu Heng smiled faintly.
Duan Zhengming couldn't tell how strong Lu Heng was, but he didn't dare to make the decision without authorization.
After all, Tenryuji Temple is a royal temple.
Some of the old monks there had once been kings of Dali.
How could he, a junior, be able to stop this? Besides, after thinking about it, he felt that Lu Heng might not be going to play in the gym, so he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, for the sake of my imperial brother, I will take Zhengchun and Daochang Lu to Diancang Mountain early in the morning two days later to meet with Zen Master Kurong. After all, Duan Yanqing is also a disciple of my Duan family, and he should return to the family tree and enter the ancestral tomb.
.”
"Come, let's hold a banquet to entertain distinguished guests! Don't neglect us!"
Duan Zhengchun breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Duan Zhengming is willing, he will not be too disappointed.
As for Duan Zhengming, the number one lay disciple of the Duan family in Dali, his martial arts skills were extremely high, and he should be on par with Duan Yanqing.
Duan Yanqing died at the hands of this man without even taking a single move.
I'm afraid there's nothing he can do against Lu Heng.
Since they can't be provoked, it's better to pass the ball to Tenryuji and let them solve it on their own.
"Thank you both very much. Lu is more respectful than obedient."
Lu Heng did not refuse.
He felt that the only people in the world of Tianlong who could compete with him were the sweeping monk of Shaolin Temple or the founder of Xiaoyao Sect, Xiaoyaozi.
There are many innate masters in Shaolin Temple.
This matter seemed different from what he had thought before.
"It's not a big problem. Let's go to Tianlong Temple first in two days, and then go to Wuliang Mountain to hunt for treasures. As for leaving the imperial city later, we might as well go to the palace to see how old Duan Yu is, so as to judge which step the plot has taken."
