We haven't seen him for two years, and Luo Zhiqing still looks that simple and honest. If he weren't wearing Taoist robes, he might be no different from the children of farmers in the Junshan area.
His appearance, especially after he announced the title of Zhao Ran's practicing brother, immediately attracted the attention of countless people, making him feel even more uncomfortable. Standing at the foot of the steps in front of the temple, his legs were as motionless as nails, his eyes
Not looking at the six directions, not listening in all directions, he just looked straight at the three-thirds of the ground under his feet, as if he wanted to hide himself in the cracks in the ground.
Seeing Zhao Ran affectionately dragging the Taoist priest into the Junshan Temple, the crowd queuing up outside to collect their wages roared and started talking about him.
Qu Fenghe straightened his neck, which had been twisted for a long time, and started counting the bamboo chips again while muttering in a low voice: "You are an immortal master with this look? You are so stupid..."
Zhao Ran pulled Luo Zhiqing into his room, made tea and handed it over, and asked: "Senior brother, why are you here today? How are you always? When I returned to Lingjian Pavilion, I heard that senior brother was walking down the mountain, and even followed him
I want my senior brother’s flying talisman, but I’ve been busy with various things here and haven’t contacted my senior brother yet. How is it? Is walking in the Taoist sect interesting? Is there anything interesting to do? Have you slain demons and demons..."
After asking for a long time, Luo Zhiqing was stunned for a long time. He didn't know how to answer. After a long time, he finally said: "Junior brother, I'm hungry."
Zhao Ran slapped his head and said, "It was my negligence. Brother, wait a moment." He turned around and went out, went to the dormitory to cook himself, quickly fried a few vegetables, filled two large bowls of rice, and brought them back.
"This is the fish from the Chongma River, the small river to the north of my Junshan Temple. It tastes very fresh and tender. Please try it, brother... This is the rabbit from Jundu Mountain. Brother, I have marinated it with sauce... I have marinated this chicken.
The ones used are stir-fried with five-flower fragrant cloud leaves. Senior brother may not know this. I have harvested a lot of exotic flowers and fruits this month. It is not difficult to stir-fry a dish... By the way, this rabbit meat cannot be told to others. You may not know.
, I have a rabbit demon here, who is called the 'Fairy of Toad Palace'. He is a rabbit, and he doesn't even know how much dried rabbit meat I have in my kitchen, hahahaha..."
Since getting acquainted with Senior Brother Luo, Zhao Ran has gradually become accustomed to the way he gets along with him. Senior Brother Luo is not good at words, but he is willing to listen. If he doesn't continue to "talk to himself" so much, there will be trouble between the two.
You can only sit there and the atmosphere will be very awkward.
Therefore, the first and second senior brothers both admitted that staying with Luo Zhiqing was very stressful. In fact, it was not pressure, it was just embarrassment. Zhao Ran's professional habit of talking to people and telling ghosts has long been ingrained into his instincts. When dealing with Luo Zhiqing,
This senior brother seemed to be very at ease. Among the fellow disciples of Lingjian Pavilion, although he was the latest to join the school and rarely met his fellow disciples often, Luo Zhiqing treated him very well.
The pressure is mutual. The first senior brother and the second senior brother feel pressure from Luo Zhiqing, and Luo Zhiqing also feels pressure from the two senior brothers; Zhao Ran can resolve this pressure with his own unique style, and Luo Zhiqing will be able to get along with him.
Feel relaxed.
So when Zhao Ran went to Yuhuang Pavilion to break the boundary two years ago, Luo Zhiqing volunteered to go to Qingcheng Mountain to pick him up, and he did not hesitate to use force with Dongfang Li.
Listening to Zhao Zhiran's nagging, Luo Zhiqing ate very deliciously. He quickly finished all the food, wiped his mouth and said, "Junior brother, you are full."
Zhao Ran asked Mr. Xu to put away the bowls and chopsticks, and asked: "Brother, why are you free to come here today? It's been half a year since you went down the mountain, right? Is it fun to walk in the Taoist sect? How have you been recently?"
Luo Zhiqing nodded: "Not bad."
Zhao Ran: "?"
Luo Zhiqing: "?"
Well, Zhao Ran realized that he had made a mistake. He should ask questions one by one. No matter how many questions you asked, Senior Brother Luo always only answered the last one... So he asked again: "Brother, why are you here?"
Luo Zhiqing said: "Junior brother, there are spirit demons here, many..."
Zhao Ran woke up, what does Taoist walking do? He specializes in dealing with illegal monks and evil cultivators. Not counting the old donkey, Zhao Ran has gathered four enlightened spirit monsters here. Luo Zhiqing will definitely come over to investigate if he hears the news.
after all.
"Haha, so that's what happened... Well, senior brother, this was an oversight on my part. I should have informed you earlier." Then he told the whole story.
After listening to Zhao Ran's speech, Luo Zhiqing nodded.
And then...no then...
Well, Zhao Ran pulled Luo Zhiqing up and took him to the back garden. It was not yet night, and the demon cultivators had not gone out yet.
The White Tiger was combing his feathers in the pond, and the Master of Five Colors and the old donkey were surrounding the White Tiger to show their courtesy. Fairy Toad Palace had her own self-esteem and did not stay close to the White Tiger. Instead, she lay in the pavilion and gave instructions.
The layman in Qingtian swept the floor while keeping an eye on the movements of the White Tiger from time to time.
Zhao Ran introduced: "Fellow tigers, masters, fairies, and lay people, this is Senior Brother of Xiaodao, Senior Brother Luo, a Taoist walker of Long'an Mansion, come and welcome everyone!"
Zhao Ran's long-lasting applause rang out in the back garden.
Zhao Ran was slightly embarrassed and explained to Luo Zhiqing: "Well, these guys are all familiar with each other, and they have become familiar with each other after being together for a long time. You see, that is my donkey. It seems to have improved recently. Senior brother can help me when he is free.
Give me some pointers, teach me, teach me?”
No one paid any attention to Zhao Ran, except for the old donkey who came over and stuck out his tongue to lick Luo Zhiqing's sleeve in a flattering manner. The whole scene was quite deserted, so deserted that it was strange.
Fairy Toad Palace pricked up her long ears, stared at Luo Zhiqing warily, and spoke quickly: "Taoist surnamed Luo, I thought I was no match for you and have already given up. Why are you still pursuing me here? I have never done anything that violates Taoism.
Why do you have to press so hard about the commandments that harm the people? Although I can't beat you, don't forget that I can go to Huayun Hall to find someone to file a lawsuit against you! I'll sue you for finding me in the mountain gate for no reason.
If you insist on forcing me to practice sword practice with you, if you don’t practice, you won’t leave!”
The tone is very aggressive, but the last two sentences reveal the timidity inside.
Luo Zhiqing shook his head: "I didn't come here to find you... Thank you..."
After hearing this, the Qingtian layman moved his steps and rubbed against the Toad Palace Fairy, and hid his huge head behind the Toad Palace Fairy. The Toad Palace Fairy stretched out his little paws, grabbed the Qingtian layman's horns, and threw him out, throwing him into Luo Zhiqing's body.
In front of him: "Are you looking for him? I'll leave it to you. I agreed that it has nothing to do with me."
Layman Qingtian lay on the ground, breathing heavily and groaning: "Moo... Daoist Master Luo, don't hit me, I can't bear it..."
Luo Zhiqing shook his head: "I'm not looking for you. I'm sorry."
Qingtian layman kicked his foot, quickly and without hesitation stepped aside, and roared at Master Wuse angrily: "Wuse, is it you? Have you offended Taoist Luo?"
The Master of Five Colors "clucked" twice and said to Zhao Ran: "Little Taoist, it has nothing to do with me. Please say something nice for me."
The White Tiger who was washing himself in the pond just now is now huddled in Zhang Laodao's thatched hut, stretching out half of his crane's head and nervously watching every move here.
Zhao Ran was confused and dumbfounded. He didn't realize for a long time what the hell these spirit monsters were doing.
Then Fairy Toad Palace said to Zhao Ran: "Little Taoist priest, since you are not looking for me, I will leave first..."
Qingtian layman: "I haven't finished plowing several acres of land in the mountains..."
Master of Five Colors: "I'm so sleepy, go back and take a nap..."
The White Tiger gently stepped out of the hut and spread its wings to fly...
Zhao Ran was shocked and hurriedly waved his hands and shouted: "Hey...hey, I'm telling you, seniors, don't leave. The work is not finished yet. What will happen to me if you leave?"
Luo Zhiqing coughed, and the four people in front of him immediately paused as if they were under a restraining spell, and turned to observe Luo Zhiqing's face.
Luo Zhiqing tilted his head and thought for a long time, and finally said: "Don't even leave, stay and help my junior brother."
