The maid Yao'er returned to the cabin and lit the lantern, "Miss, why don't you call me to hold the light? It's dark, you hurt your eyes like this."

The fifth lady closed the umbrella and rubbed her eyebrows, "It's okay to see it for a while... By the way, there was a little noise outside just now, what happened?"

The maid said, "Just just now, there was a fisherman rowing in the river. He was vaguely listening and singing. The maid didn't know how to describe it, but the third young master and the others said that the fisherman was upright and honest, and his atmosphere was not like ordinary people... Well, Miss, you didn't see it just now. Under the afterglow of the sunset, the snow fell and the river surface, the fisherman pushed his oars and sailed on the boat, and it felt really different."

Miss Fifth held the umbrella tightened her hands and suddenly stood up, "Where is the person? I'll go and see."

"Miss, Miss, please slow down."

Unfortunately, when the master and servant arrived on the deck, it was already dark and the big ship was moving faster. It had already left the small boat far behind. Looking back, the river surface was pitch black, and there was no fisherman's figure.

The fifth lady felt lost.

The maid whispered: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

The fifth lady shook her head, "It's okay, or I'm thinking too much... Yao'er, go and tell the master that I'm a little tired today, so I don't need supper."

...

The next day, early morning.

The falling snow continues, and the earth is covered with silver.

The old boatman who had slept all night, opened his eyes in a trance and was suddenly shocked, "Sir, where is this?"

Luo Guan turned around and said, "The boatman is awake, and it is close to Yiyang Temple."

He raised his hand and pointed.

The old boatman was stunned, "Why is this the end of the night... Is it the gentleman rowing?"

"Well, I couldn't sleep last night." Luo Guan nodded, "Since the boatman woke up, it's time to leave, so say goodbye."

After saying that, he took off his straw raincoat, opened his umbrella and went ashore.

Just after walking a few steps, the sound of footsteps came, "Sir, please wait!"

The old boatman caught up with his face, "It's the little old man's fault. I slept all night until now. Mr. Lao rowed his boat and rushed to the road. How could he collect your money again?"

He gritted his teeth and took out the one or two pieces of silver, "Sir, please take it back."

Luo Guan waved his hand, "The boatman doesn't have to do this. How can he break his promise if he has made a good price?"

"This... the little old man is shameless. This pot of wine is brewed by his own family. It must not be compared with the gentleman's fine wine. However, it is also a little bit of the heart. Please accept it with a smile."

Luo Guan smiled, "Okay, the cold weather in winter is so cold that I'm not polite." He took the wine pot, bowed his hand, turned around and left.

Each person and an umbrella, the world is white, and the robe sways, flowing and splendid.

The old boatman murmured: "This gentleman, maybe he is an ordinary person..."

But his livelihood still had to continue. He went back to the boat to sort out, and after untiing the rope, the old boatman rowed down the river.

A gust of cold wind blew, and he subconsciously hammered his legs, and his movements suddenly stopped, looking stunned.

Because I have been living on the water for many years, the old boatman has entered his body with a cold wind. When he is exposed to the wind in winter, he feels sore and painful. But now he just feels that his whole body is warm, and the cold wind is no longer uncomfortable and he can't recover for a while.

At the bottom of the river, the huge black shadow sensed the breath of the gentleman and left, as if he was given a general amnesty, turning his head and running without hesitation.

The noise was too loud, and even a wave of undercurrents were set off in the river. The waves woke up the old boatman and kowtowed quickly. "Masters and grandmas at the bottom of the river, please don't get angry. After the little old man cooks, he will definitely show his filial piety..."

Luo Guan held an umbrella in one hand and a wine pot in the other hand, and drank it from time to time. Looking at the winter snow scene, he also found it particularly interesting.

Soon, I came to a dock by the river. Compared with the previous dock, it was more than ten times larger. Large ships were docked here. The dock’s outer street was prosperous, with inns, wineries, garment halls, and even gambling houses.

People come and go, and it is very lively.

Especially, a ship by the river is particularly large in size. Judging from the flags planted on it, it seems to be the basis for the high-ranking officials of the court to travel.

There were several noble slaves, and a group of swords, soldiers and armor were stationed on the deck and patrolled.

This scene attracted a lot of attention, and some people whispered, and Luo Guan didn't work hard, so he roughly knew the situation. It seemed that a senior official from the Dayong court brought his family and children to Yiyang Temple to eat incense.

As today, although the torrent of humanity has been set off, the subordinates of Jiangtai County are looking down on the throne and are quickly swallowing up the country. However, the dynasty that has been around for hundreds of years will not fall soon. As long as the capital is still one day, it will be difficult for people to change their hearts easily.

Luo Guan walked along the direction of the incense, quickly passed through the pier, arrived at the foot of Yiyang Mountain, and then moved forward with a mountain climbing stone step.

At the end of the stone steps is Yiyang Temple.

But at this moment, many people gathered under the stone steps, each of whom was anxious, but he did not dare to express his complaints.

Luo Guan thought for a while, grabbed a middle-aged man who turned around and wanted to leave, and bowed: "Brother, how dare you ask what happened?"

The middle-aged man was in a bad mood, which shows that Luo Guan was very arrogant and polite. He said patiently: "The senior officials of the court brought their families to the temple to enjoy the incense. Today, they will not receive foreign guests. For the sake of the incense stick, we waited here early last night, but were stopped outside the Taoist temple."

Full of resentment and quite resentment.

"Oh, so that's it." Luo Guan nodded.

The middle-aged man sighed, "What's the solution? Yi Yang's view is effective, and it is rumored that there is a inheritance of immortals, which is the real place of wonderful methods. We mortals have to wait for another day."

"You little brother, don't waste your time here. Why don't you go down the mountain with us as soon as possible."

At this moment, a stream of light passed through the sky and was heading towards Yiyang Mountain. Luo Guan's eyes flashed slightly, and he saw clearly that the person was one of the brothers who went to arrest people at the request of the Dayong court.

He smiled slightly and said, "I have had some friendship with a true practitioner of Yi Yangguan. Maybe he will come to welcome me soon."

The middle-aged man obviously disbelief. Yi Yangguan had a very strong ambition and the court had to respect him. He had never heard of Taoist priests from Guanzhong who came out to pick him up. The little brother looked at the good atmosphere, but unexpectedly he was talking nonsense.

He frowned and said coldly: "Since that's the case, little brother, just wait here. I'm going to take my family down the mountain." After saying that, the middle-aged man walked to the place where several female relatives were next to him and whispered something.

The female members showed disappointment, but nodded and turned around and left.

At this moment, a sudden scream came from the crowd, and it turned out that it was a figure walking down from the snow on the mountain road.

He has a tall robe and a tall crown, and is handsome. Although he has never spoken, his eyes are calm and calm, and he can tell that his identity is extraordinary.

Zhang He saw the gentleman who was smiling in the crowd and suddenly sweated slightly on his forehead.

Just now, he drove back to the mountain by the light of escape, and suddenly felt something. He glanced and sat down quickly, and his heart was beating wildly. He hesitated and came to verify that the luck in his heart was completely gone.

‘Could this gentleman come to take revenge after the matter of that day? It’s over! The stupid junior brother, it’s all because of you, I, Yiyang Mountain, may be destroyed today.’

Turning around and running away? Going to report to Master? This thought was only moved for a moment and was pressed hard. Although I didn't know the identity of this gentleman, as far as I saw that day, if the other party wanted to take action, Master would definitely not be the opponent.

call--

Zhang He vented his anger and hoped that today, this gentleman just happened to pass by, but how could there be so many coincidences in the world?

He felt bitter, but he didn't dare to pause under his feet. He quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Yiyang Mountain Zhang He, pay homage to Mr. Zhang! I don't know that Mr. has arrived, and the mountain has not yet met him. Please forgive me!"

He is thoughtful and respectful.

Swish-

The surrounding area suddenly became quiet. The middle-aged man who was talking to Luo Guan just now had his eyes wide open, looking disbelief.

Luo Guan smiled and bowed, "I have seen fellow Taoist Zhang He, and I am here today. If there is any trouble, please forgive me."

Zhang He was overjoyed. Judging from the situation, the gentleman seemed not to be seeking revenge.

Yes, such a master, how can he not speak without trust? It must be his villain's heart to judge a gentleman. He became more and more respectful, "Sir, you are so serious about your words. If you can come to Yiyang Mountain, you will be honored to be above and below the mountain. I will send a message to Master and open the mountain gate to welcome Mr. "

Luo Guan waved his hand, "No, the snow scene is good today. You and I can climb the mountain and enjoy the scenery along the way."

"This... I followed the instructions of the gentleman." Zhang He stretched out his hand and pointed it out, "Sir, please."

Luo Guan nodded and took the lead in climbing the mountain with everyone's surprise eyes.

Soon, the two figures left far away, leaving only the people at the foot of the mountain looking at each other.

"Hiss--" Suddenly, the middle-aged man slapped his thighs, grinning in pain, and his face full of annoyance.

If I had known that gentleman's identity as such, I would have seized the opportunity and made some friendship with the other party. Unfortunately, the opportunity was right now, but he easily missed it.

Yiyang Temple was built at the foot of Yiyang Mountain. Although it is not high, it has 1,600 steps.

The mountains were covered with heavy snow, and the pines and cypresses bent. On occasion, a few small animals who came out to look for food in winter were alarmed by the sound of conversation, and ran away without a trace with a "swoosh", leaving only a string of footprints.

Luo Guan took a sip of wine, "I heard that today, some distinguished guests came to Guanzhong. Is it inappropriate to visit him in a hurry?"

Zhang He hurriedly said, "Sir, the most honorable guest on the mountain of despise... That, in fact, if you are only a high-ranking official in the court, Yiyang Mountain doesn't have to do this. These people are the family members of the master in the mortal world, and they have close relatives in blood."

"Today, I brought a group of juniors from my family to test whether they have the immortal affinity to practice. In order to prevent people from being confused, I temporarily closed the Taoist temple. If I am dissatisfied, I immediately ordered people to open the mountain gate and welcome all the pilgrims into it."

Luo Guan smiled and shook his head, "Fellow Taoist Zhang He, don't misunderstand it. Luo is not dissatisfied with this. Since there is a reason for the incident, it is reasonable to block the Taoist temple."

"Is the state of the Nascent Soul of respecting the teacher stable?"

Zhang Heshang breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you for your blessing, Master has come out of seclusion smoothly."

"That's good. I came to Yiyang Mountain this time and there is a practice method that I want to discuss with Master Ling for a while."

Zhang He bowed, "Master will be very happy because of the arrival of Mr.

While the two were talking and climbing the mountain, a group of young men in Yiyang Temple were standing in the hall with confusion.

In the main position, there is an old Taoist with white hair and a calm expression.
