"I've met the master." Li Xiuyuan looked slightly different and then saluted.
The green plum beside him also bowed and said in a sweet voice: "Good morning, Taoist Priest."
The blind Taoist's eyes were now bright, black and pure, like a baby's eyes, without any impurities. He asked again: "Do you want to go north to Beijing?"
"Yes, master, Yangzhou has been pacified, and now I have to go to Beijing to report on my duties." Li Xiuyuan replied.
The blind Taoist pondered for a moment: "If we go north to Beijing, according to the itinerary, it will take at least a month to travel by water. If we slow down a little, delaying it to ninety days is not a problem."
"What do you mean, master?" Li Xiuyuan asked.
He felt that the master's personal visit this time must have something important to do.
Otherwise, given the character of his master, he would have to hide as far away as possible, for fear of trouble and contamination with karma.
In a word, he is timid and afraid of getting into trouble.
"Please take the time to go to the master's school during these ninety days. After you obtained the divine power, your power has become more and more powerful. You need some guidance, otherwise you will be at a disadvantage if you enter the capital like this." Blind Taoist said.
"Master, do you mean to return to the master's school to learn Taoism for ninety days?" Li Xiuyuan said in surprise.
"That's right, of course you don't have to go. This is just my suggestion," the blind Taoist said.
Li Xiuyuan pondered for a moment and said: "Since the master has spoken, how can I not go? The slowdown on the road will not affect anything, and rushing is a waste of time. It is best to take this time to return to the master's door.
."
He understands his current shortcomings.
After the Immortal-Slaying Sword collapsed, relying on the Divine Power and the ghosts and gods from all directions under his command, it was not a problem for the Millennium Demon to suppress the evil spirits, but he had to completely understand, understand, and master the power of the Divine Power.
Otherwise, if you encounter danger, you won't have any means to respond.
"If you want to return to the master's gate, you can fly this paper crane, and it will guide you back to the master's gate."
Suddenly, the blind Taoist took out a paper crane made of yellow paper from his robe. The crane fluttered in his hand, fluttering its wings, then turned his head and glanced at Li Xiuyuan, then flew away.
past.
But as soon as he got close to Li Xiuyuan, he suddenly fell from the air.
This is a Taoist technique that has failed.
The aura of Saint Li Xiuyuan is still there, and his spells are useless within three battles. However, if you release the paper crane three feet away, it can fly again.
"Master, won't you return to your master's door?" he asked, taking the paper crane.
The blind Taoist said: "What are you going to do for me? There is nothing for me to do there. When you get to the mountain gate, someone will pick you up. Everything will be worry-free. By the way, if you are free, pick a few peaches for me."
It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten wild peaches from the mountains.”
"This is a small matter. When my disciple comes back, he will bring some mountain goods with him." Li Xiuyuan nodded.
"That's good, I'm going back to Guo Beicheng as my master." After the blind Taoist said that, he turned and left.
He took a few steps, and the courtyard wall in front of him cracked, and he soon disappeared from sight.
"Have a good trip, Master Tao."
Next to her, Qingmei Yingying bowed and watched the Taoist Master leave. After the Taoist Master left, she said reluctantly: "My husband is going to the mountains to practice Taoism. Although he is only going to go for ninety days, after all, he is practicing in the mountains, so why not take him with him?"
Let your servants go, so that someone can take care of you in your daily life."
"How can you bring women to the land of Qingxiu? You and Qing'e are staying in Jinling City. It won't take long to go to Beijing to report on your duties. You will be back in half a year at most." Li Xiuyuan said.
"Yes, husband." Qingmei responded obediently and did not insist anymore.
The next day.
Li Xiuyuan only brought two people with him, and Han Meng led the team immediately to Beijing.
In addition, he also brought Wu Xiang, Mao Wu and several other guards with him to ensure his own safety.
As for the Li family army, he temporarily left it to Xing Shan to take care of it, and he had to stay in the army and train archers and teach cavalry how to ride and shoot, so he couldn't leave.
Of course, they were accompanied by Fu Tianchou, Qingfeng Yuechi, and Zuo Qianhu, who was responsible for escorting them.
This was Zuo Qianhu's duty. Although he had helped defend the city for many days, now that the turmoil had subsided, he still needed to perform his duties and escort Fu Tianchou into the capital.
"Father, Mr. Li is here, why do you have to put on shackles, sit in a prison, and be escorted to the capital? Father, it's better to come out of the prison and let's ride on horseback. Wouldn't it be better?" On the way, Fu
Qingfeng looked at the shackled Fu Tianchou in the prison and asked with concern.
Although Fu Tianchou was in a state of embarrassment at the moment, his face looked very good and he was full of energy. He said stubbornly: "No need, my father is a guilty minister. Your Majesty's decree is to escort my father to Beijing. What will happen if he rides on horseback?
Isn't it a case of betrayal? This is the crime of deceiving the emperor."
"Miss Qingfeng, you don't need to persuade me. I think Mr. Fu is quite comfortable sitting in the prison. There is a carriage pulling the cage, so he won't be tired," Li Xiuyuan said.
Fu Tianchou stared at Li Xiuyuan: "I'm not tired, why don't you give it a try?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "How can this be done? I am now the governor of Yangzhou. I have to be shackled to obtain the emperor's imperial edict. I am not lucky enough to endure Master Fu's prison."
Fu Tianchou immediately puffed his beard and glared in anger, but he felt uncomfortable and couldn't find the words to refute.
Who would have thought that when he came to Yangzhou, he was still the minister of disaster relief, and this Li Xiuyuan was just a scholar, but in just a few months, he became a prisoner, and Li Xiuyuan sat in the position of the governor of Yangzhou.
This is simply unbelievable.
There is no way to get promoted quickly. If he hadn't seen the imperial edict coming down with his own eyes, he would have thought that Li Xiuyuan forged the imperial edict and pretended to be the governor in order to take this opportunity to occupy Yangzhou.
"Master Li, I'm sorry to see you, this road doesn't seem to be the way to Beijing." At this time, Zuo Qianhu came from behind on horseback and said with cupped fists.
Li Xiuyuan said: "It's so tiring to walk. Let's go to Yangzhou and take a boat to go north."
"I see, I understand, I understand." Zuo Qianhu nodded, then rode away again, telling his subordinates to take a boat to go north.
Li Xiuyuan glanced at Zuo Qianhu and thought, "Zuo Qianhu is loyal to every master and doesn't think about which master's order is right and which master's order is wrong. But this is fine, this way
Only with your own character can you survive in the capital."
Without scheming, there is no threat, so no one will harm Zuo Qianhu. Besides, his martial arts are very strong and can be useful to anyone.
Half a day later, Li Xiuyuan and his party arrived in Yangzhou, where several ships were already waiting.
It was arranged by him in advance.
"Sir, the boat is ready and can set off at any time." At the ferry, a child of about twelve years old stood there and saluted.
This is the Yangtze River King.
Li Xiuyuan walked over and said in a low voice: "I will not be on board this time to take a boat to the north. You are responsible for the safety along the way. There are many monsters in the water, and it depends on you, the thousand-year-old monster, to suppress them. However, I will leave three Thunder God Orders behind.
, I believe it is enough to ensure a safe journey. If you encounter a strong enemy and are defeated, you can wrap up the boat and escape.
, the trip north can be delayed, but there must be no casualties."
"Master, please rest assured, I understand." King Yangzijiang nodded.
"Where are the Eight Kings?" Li Xiuyuan asked again.
The King of Yangtze River pointed to the water, where a giant turtle appeared vaguely.
"Very good. With the Eight Kings accompanying me, I feel more at ease."
Li Xiuyuan nodded and said, no matter what, the Eight Great Kings have at least six hundred years of Taoism, and they have received incense and offerings. Now they are not much worse than the Yangtze River King, and they are also at the level of a thousand-year-old demon.
If such a force is still attacked, then it is not as simple as an ordinary water monster causing trouble. (https:)
