Zhang Yu just had a light of heart floating around his body. It was a magical power he had mastered, called "Heaven's Heart Tongjian".
Once this technique is born from the visualization diagram, it will always be around you. Once you feel the malicious prying eyes of outsiders, it will affect the hearts and magic powers of both parties for a limited collision. If the other party does not have a magical weapon or appropriate
If you use any means to protect it, it will shock its body and cause it to be injured.
He didn't let Qing Shu catch the person who was peeping from behind, because he could feel that the other person's cultivation level was not high and it was impossible to know too much. Maybe he was hired by others to keep an eye on him temporarily.
There is no point in coming, it is enough to give him a hard time.
Yu De was completely unaware of this, and while bowing to greet him, he led the three of them into the inner courtyard.
Zhang Yu looked around. Flowers and trees were planted on both sides of the courtyard in an orderly manner. From his point of view, it seemed to be one with the outside scene, giving people a sense of infinite continuity. He couldn't help but nod.
Initially, all he wanted was a more suitable place to stay in Tanquanzhou, but now that he had options, he was willing to find a more comfortable place.
And after the agreement with the Wei Army is over, he no longer needs to live in Yeya Prefecture, and this place can be used as a permanent residence.
After passing the vestibule and greenway, and crossing a cobblestone-covered stream from the stone bridge, a Tianxia-style wooden structure appeared in front of it.
This place does not completely follow the ancient system. The front is the main residence on the top of the seven-bay intermittent mountain top, with high cornices and a verandah. However, the beams and columns are not very high and are covered with light-colored glazed tiles, so not only does it not appear heavy, but it is light and comfortable.
Comfortable.
The front of the house is very open, with a flower gallery on the left and a flower garden at the back, filled with colorful flowers, all blooming all year round.
Qingxi said happily: "It's so beautiful here."
Yu De picked up the conversation at this time and said: "This young lady can see clearly that every plant and tree here has been carefully arranged by the previous owner. It took a lot of thought."
Qing Xi asked curiously: "Where is the original owner?"
Yu Dedao: "This is a businessman, and he is also good at making money. Now his business has reached the inner level. Perhaps he was thinking about the comfort of the inner level, so he entrusted us to transfer the property and mansion purchased on the outer level. However, the price he asked was too high.
Gao, it’s been two years since this mansion was built, and no one has lived in it.”
Zhang Yu didn't ask further. Those who were able to do business in the outer world were all involved with the Military Affairs Administration, and they probably held some unknown positions themselves.
He came under the eaves corridor, stepped up the steps and walked inside. When he arrived at the main residence, he saw that the corridors here were wide, the field of view was very wide, and there were many transparent places. It might not be suitable for ordinary people, but
As a cultivator, this does not hinder me, and there are also some restrictions that can be placed around me.
At this time, he looked towards a corner of the hall as if he was aware of it, but he saw a little fox-like dog there. It was all white and not big. At the moment, he was protecting several cubs behind him, using his beautiful
His eyes looked at them uneasily.
Yu De hurriedly said: "This is a jade fox, which usually likes to eat rats, insects and ants. The previous owner kept them here to protect the house and flower gardens. If the patrol doesn't like it, I will take them away."
Zhang Yudao: "No need, just stay here."
The jade fox was very humane and seemed to sense his kindness and became quiet again. However, it still did not allow the curious and lively cubs to leave its care and brought them back with its paws and tail.
Zhang Yu went to the back house again to take a look, and after walking around, he said: "This is it, Qingshu, you follow Mr. Yu to the office to sign the documents."
Qingshu cupped his fists and said, "Yes."
Yu De's face was filled with joy. He bowed his head and said, "Then I will hereby wish that the patrol's career will be forever."
Zhang Yu nodded.
After Yu De and Qing Shu left together, he said: "Qing Xi, go and arrange some people to redecorate this place. We will live here for a while."
Qingxi said: "Okay, sir."
After Zhang Yu took care of him, he moved to the side of the jade fox. The little thing shrank slightly and protected the squealing cubs tightly.
He took a handful of pill powder, sprinkled it on the ground, and then turned around and left the place. It was not yet habitable, so he still had to stay in a hotel for a few nights.
After he left, the jade fox tentatively came up and licked it, then circled its tail and drove the cubs under it to the front. The cubs quickly started licking them happily. And it looked at it with extremely spiritual eyes.
Watching Zhang Yu walk away.
Because this house was well maintained, Qing Xi only used it for two days to tidy up the house.
Zhang Yu and his party also moved here from the guest house.
In the next few days, he stayed in his residence and never went out. He was mainly recuperating his state of mind and trying to prepare for the search for all selves.
This method mainly focuses on enlightenment, so the practice above the mind is extremely important. If you blindly rely on your deep cultivation to pursue it hastily, I am afraid it will be counterproductive.
On the seventh day after he moved in, a team of creation chariots and horses came from outside. The chariots and horses stopped outside the corridor, and a man and a woman got down from above.
The man was dressed in official robes and was in his forties, but he had a gentle smile on his face. Although his robes were neat and tidy, he did not make people feel unapproachable.
The woman has a beautiful face and is wearing an underskirt. Her every step is in accordance with ancient etiquette, but she has a serious face at this moment.
The man said: "Master Guo, this is the residence of Zhang Xunhu."
The woman surnamed Guo said: "I sent several letters before but there was no reply. If we didn't know that this person lives here, we might not be able to find him."
The man glanced at him and smiled: "Monks are different from us after all. Their lifespans are very long, and their feelings about time are also different from ours. We can't apply our feelings to them."
The woman surnamed Guo said displeasedly: "Then do we have to accommodate them?"
The man said: "Of course that's not what I meant. Don't we have something to ask for now?"
The woman surnamed Guo said: "Please? I can lower my posture, but I won't be so humble. That will only make people look down upon us."
The man said helplessly: "You just care too much."
While talking, the door of the house opened, and Qing Shu walked out, clasping his fists and saying, "Where are these two distinguished guests?"
When the woman surnamed Guo saw that he was a creator, she couldn't help but be a little surprised and stared at him for a while.
The man stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "I am Ji Jin, the assistant official of the Yujing Tiangong Department." He pointed at the woman named Guo and said, "This is Guo Yingguo, the master craftsman of the Yujing Tiangong Department."
Qingshu looked at the two of them and said, "What are you two doing here?"
Ji Jin said: "We have sent several letters to Zhang Xunhu before, but he was in seclusion at that time, so we were not allowed to meet him. I heard that Xunhu is now buying a house in Tanquan Prefecture, so I came to visit him.
, and prepared some small gifts."
Qingshu said: "The two of you, please go to the corridor and wait for a while. I will go in and report."
Ji Jin cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry."
Qingshu turned around and entered.
Guo Ying glanced at the corridor with pink walls and black tiles, and said: "Even for a great craftsman, it is not easy to build such a big house, but for a monk it is very easy."
Ji Jin smiled and said: "Not all cultivators are like this. Patrol guards are awarded by Xuanting, so they are different."
Guo Ying whispered: "The monks are not engaged in production, but every year Yujing needs to allocate a large amount of money to support them."
Ji Jin said: "But isn't this what we should do? Without monks to protect us and protect all people, how can we gain a foothold in this world?"
Guo Ying raised her beautiful face and said seriously: "In creation, something will always be replaced by something better, and it will definitely be different in the future."
Ji Jin said nothing.
Zhang Yu was currently holding a scroll under the verandah and reading. He heard the sound of gurgling water coming from outside, and occasionally picked up the celadon tea cup on the table in front of him and took a sip.
Qingshu walked in, cupped his fists and said, "Sir, there are visitors outside. One of them claims to be an assistant of the Tianxing Department, and the other is a master craftsman of the Tiangong Department."
Zhang Yudao: "Invite them in."
Qingshu said yes.
After a while, Ji Jin and Guo Ying were welcomed in. They walked through the green avenue and looked up. They saw Zhang Yu standing there under the long eaves and on the platform with his sleeves covered. He was dressed in jade white.
The Taoist robe with long sleeves, the clear air outside the body, the misty light of the clouds, the pure and jade posture, shine like a god, like the sun and the moon hanging high in the sky.
It was the first time for Guo Ying to see Zhang Yu, and she couldn't help but feel lost for a while.
Ji Jin had seen Zhang Yu's painting when he came here, but now that he saw the real person, he was amazed and secretly praised: "This Zhang Xunhu, just looking at his appearance, he is really a real immortal in the world."
When he came to the steps, he cupped his hands and said, "Zhang Xunhu."
Guo Ying silently bowed to her with a blessing.
Zhang Yu raised his sleeves in return, stepped aside, and said: "You two, please come in and talk."
Ji Jin quickly said politely, then stepped onto the steps with Guo Ying, and followed him into the main living hall.
When they arrived at the inner room, the three of them settled down as guest and host. Qing Xi came over and gave them tea.
Ji Jin smiled and said: "Zhang Xunhu, I'm sorry to bother you. I think the Xunzhu had received our letter before, so he knew our intention."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly.
Guo Ying said at this time: "Zhang Xunhu, that An Zhizhi was already my student, but he was taken in as a student. Maybe Zhang Xunhu didn't know about this in advance, but it was the relationship between me and An Zhizhi."
I have already agreed on this, and I hope Zhang Xunhu can release him."
Zhang Yu said in a calm voice: "Master Guo, An Zhizhi was sent to me personally by a member of the An family, and he will only stay with me for one year. After one year, I will let him go and let him stay."
, does not prevent him from becoming Master Guo’s student.”
Guo Ying shook her head and said: "No, if he enters the Tao, he will no longer be able to practice creation."
Zhang Yudao: "It only takes one year, can't Master Guo wait?"
Guo Ying showed a look of distrust and said: "An Zhizhi is naturally smart. I'm afraid it will be too late after a year. By then he must have become a Taoist."
Zhang Yudao: "Master Guo seems to have some misunderstanding about Taoism. No matter how talented he is, it is impossible for him to transform from a mortal with no foundation to a Taoist within one year."
Guo Ying shook her head and said, "They can't possibly compare to An Zhizhi."
At this time, even Ji Jin couldn't help but look at her and signaled her with his eyes.
Guo Ying seemed to be unaware of it, and said with a serious expression: "Zhang Xunhu, I have An's letter of promise in hand. According to Tianxia law, An Zhizhi is already my disciple. I hope Zhang Xunhu can release him today. If not,
If so, then I have no choice but to ask the attorney for a ruling."
