Taoist Chongxu was embarrassed by being squeezed by Huo Jin. Su Ren quickly pulled Huo Jin to sit next to him: "If the Taoist priest comes out this time, will he come back to Wenshui with us? My second brother and eldest sister will be very happy to see the Taoist priest.
.”
Old Taoist Chongxu waved his hands repeatedly: "I still can't go back, I want to go back, I'm afraid..."
"Hmph! I know you are a coward, and to tell you the truth, if my elder brother lets you go back, he will definitely protect your safety! If I want to be as capable as you, I will wait for Liu Wen to find me and kill his whole family first."
Hawking was angry and did not take this cheap master seriously at all.
"You have done evil, you are a young man, and you are very angry! Jun'er seems to have made a mistake in accepting you as his disciple!"
Hawking continued to argue, but Su Ren glared at him.
"Don't worry, Taoist Priest. Come back with me this time. I will take care of Liu Wen's matter. Since Taoist Priest knows me, he must also know about Liu Wen and I's feud. This time I came back from Wuyang just for Liu Wen's matter.
Make sure the Taoist priest is safe and sound."
"Hey!" Old Taoist Chongxu sighed, neither refusing nor agreeing.
Early the next morning, we found a relatively gentle river. The wide bamboo raft was pushed into the river. Huo Jin and others tried it and found that there was no problem, so they picked up Su Ren. Taoist priest Chongxu stood on the bank.
, the mood was complicated, and he didn’t lift his feet or leave.
Su Ren chuckled: "What worries does the Taoist have? I made it clear to the Taoist last night that Liu Wen has not been around for a few days. We have already broken up with him, and the grievances between the Taoist and the Taoist are also...
It’s not a big deal.”
Old Taoist Chongxu opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he said nothing. He sighed and stepped onto the bamboo raft.
With no danger, we crossed the Minjiang River and saw Shuangzui Mountain not far away, which was our own territory. Gou Tianming renovated the old village and turned it into a temporary cargo transfer station. Cui Jiuming shipped goods from Zitong
The goods are no longer sent to Laojun Temple, but directly shipped to Shuangzui Mountain. This way, we can avoid people talking and get closer to Yelang.
Passing at the foot of Shuangzui Mountain, several guards who showed up on the road came forward to question them, but they were scolded and beaten by Hawking. He then turned around and ran away, never to be seen again.
Su Ren finally stopped one of them: "Go get some clean clothes for the Taoist priest to change into. How are you going to go home like this!"
After walking through the sky, the clothes delivered from the mountain arrived. Chongxu was not polite. He found a secluded place to change clothes, washed his hair by the river, and carried the sword behind his back, looking like a fluttering fairy.
Appear in front of everyone.
Hawking rolled his eyes: "This doesn't look like a Taoist priest, he is just a disciple!"
Su Ren slapped Hawking on the back of the head: "Why are you talking? The Taoist Master is a senior. You are the only one who talks a lot. If you talk nonsense again, I will deal with you."
Taoist priest Chongxu chuckled: "Children are ignorant, so there is no harm in talking. Children's words are not forbidden."
"I'm not a child!"
Su Ren glared at Huo Jin: "Go down, give the horse to the Taoist priest, and walk back from here!"
"Let's go!" Hawking dismounted, shouldered his red tassel gun, and strode forward.
"Hey!" Su Ren sighed, and bowed his hands to Taoist Priest Chongxu: "Taoist Priest, don't blame me, this kid is spoiled!"
The walk was awkward. Because Huo Jin didn't want to see Taoist Chongxu, and the dozen or so guards also looked at the old Taoist with displeasure. Only Su Ren and the old Taoist chatted while walking, talking about the life they had spent in Chongxu for more than half a year.
Since Dr. Chongxu killed Liu Wen's youngest son, he was worried about Liu Wen's revenge, so he used Yunyou's name to escape from Wenshui alone. Although he left Wenshui, he still remembered his two apprentices. He didn't dare to go far, so he
Hidden in the mountains opposite the Minjiang River. He also knew that he would never be able to return to Wenshui in this life. He only hoped that the two brothers Leng Jun and Leng Yue would grow up quickly so that he could leave the deep mountains and forests and really travel.
Taoist priest Chongxu did not expect the sudden rise of Su Ren. Within half a year, under the leadership of Su Ren, Laojun Temple was centered on Laojun Temple, and the changes in the nearby people made Chongxu completely reassured. Just when he was about to leave, Laojun Temple was the center.
At that time, Su Ren began to recruit the bandits. This was a rebellion. Taoist priest Chongxu was worried that Young Master Leng Jun would follow Su Ren and stay and watch.
"So, Taoist Master has been paying attention to our Laojun Temple. What do you think?"
"Okay, very good! You have such ability at a young age, much better than the old man. At the beginning, the three of us, the master and the apprentice, had neither enough food nor clothing, but now it is no exaggeration to say that we are well-dressed and well-fed."
"Then don't go wandering around this time when you go back. Stay at Laojun Temple and enjoy the blessings."
"Hehehe." Taoist Master Chongxu shook his head: "I'm old. Laojun Temple has been turned into what it is now by you. It is no longer the place where it was originally cultivated. The old Taoist has only been seeking immortality for his whole life. There are only disadvantages in this world of mortals.
The good thing is, I can take another look at Jun'er and Yue'er when I go back this time, and I'll feel relieved when I leave."
"Why bother! Is ascending to immortality really that important? As far as I know, no one in this world has ever truly achieved enlightenment and ascended to immortality."
"The world is full of wonders, boy, are you sure you have seen everything?"
"I can't say I've seen everything. At least you, the old man, have never seen anything I've seen."
"That's not a small tone!" Chongxu chuckled: "Everyone has his own ambitions, why should I force myself? Maybe some people will be happy if I leave." Chongxu looked at the angry Hawking in front of him with a smile on his face.
Back at Laojun Temple, Su Ren did not go to see the reunion between Leng Jun, Leng Yue and their master. He called Hu Ji to his room and carefully asked about various things that had happened in Wen Shui during the time he was away. The two
I stayed in the house all day long, and Hawking brought me food, drinks, and snacks to and from everyone.
Until the evening, Leng Jun kicked open the door: "When you come back, you go into the house like a little daughter-in-law who is afraid of seeing people. What are you going to do? You won't do anything bad, right?"
The appearance of Taoist Master Chongxu made Leng Jun and Leng Yue both surprised and happy. They had been dependent on their master for more than ten years, and when they reunited after a long absence, all kinds of suppressed emotions in their hearts were complicated and intense.
Su Ren looked at Leng Jun's eyes that had obviously been crying and said with a smile: "I'm not a little wife, at least I didn't cry!"
"You! I'm happy today and won't argue with you. I've been saying it all day and everyone is waiting for you. Come out and have some fun, right?"
Several people walked out of the door and walked towards the kitchen. Taoist Chongxu had a very good reputation in Laojun Temple. In addition, during this period, Laojun Temple had made the people nearby live a good life. Everyone hedged against Taoist Master Chongxu.
His gratitude and respect were once again raised to a higher level. On the first day after he came back, people from nearby came to visit him one after another, and the threshold of Laojun Temple was almost broken.
Today's dinner was extraordinarily rich. On the big round table, there were almost all kinds of food prepared by Su Ren. Leng Yue sat next to Chongxu, wiping her tears and picking food for Chongxu. Chongxu had a kind face and wiped the dishes for Leng Yue.
tears.
Su Ren suddenly put down the bowl: "Where's the wine? How can we not have wine at this time? Xiao Jinzi, go get the wine from my room and get a few big bowls. There's no feast without wine!"
Hawking didn't want to go very much. He didn't know why, but he just didn't like Chongxu.
Leng Jun asked Su Ren: "What's wrong with Xiao Jinzi? He's been like this since he came back."
Su Ren shook his head and smiled: "When we met, you were taught a lesson by your master. Do you hold grudges?"
"He still dares to hold grudges?" Leng Jun stood up: "Speaking of Master, this brat is so rude!"
Taoist Master Chongxu waved his hand quickly: "Don't blame Xiao Jinzi. All this is my master's fault. I have put you brothers and sisters in danger. I am not worthy of being your master! Xiao Jinzi blames my master, but he also feels sorry for you. You...
The apprentice received well."
"Master!" Leng Yue's tears flowed down again.
Huo Qian finally understood and quickly got up to look for him without waiting for Huo Jin to come back.
Su Ren looked at the confused Hu Ji and signaled to eat: "Eat, it's a good thing, crying is nothing! Sister, you should be happy when the Taoist Master comes back. Don't cry all the time. Crying too much is bad for your eyes!"
"Yes!" Leng Yue agreed obediently, wiped her tears, and gave Su Ren a faint smile.
When Huo Qianshi and Huo Jin came back, although Huo Jin was not happy yet, he did not say anything sarcastic. He put the wine in front of Su Ren. Su Ren said: "Pour the wine! You are the youngest at this table, why do you need me to do anything?"
Hawking was helpless and sighed. He opened the mud seal and poured wine for everyone. Without looking at anyone, he walked away after pouring and picked up his own bowl to eat.
"It's time to give it to you! You are fifteen years old and you are considered an adult. You can drink less!"
Hawking's eyes suddenly widened, and he quickly poured himself a bowl. Huo Qian kept saying, "Pour less, pour less." Hawking finally got a full bowl for himself.
Su Ren did not stop him and picked up the wine bowl: "Speaking of it, this place belongs to the Taoist priest. Today I will pretend to be a landlord on your site. This bowl of wine can wash away the Taoist priest's dust and reunite the second brother and eldest sister with the Taoist priest.
Congratulations, don’t talk nonsense, just do the work first as a sign of respect.”
"Fuck!" All the men at the table drank some. Hawking felt that if his eldest brother asked him to drink for him, it meant that he was an adult in his heart. This was something worth celebrating. Since he is an adult, then
Be like an adult. Pick up the wine bowl, tilt your neck and drink it all.
The wine is indeed good wine. After Su Ren's improvement, the alcohol content has been improved a lot. Hawking, who had never drank wine before, drank a large bowl of wine, and his throat was on fire all the way to his stomach. He imitated others and drank the wine.
He threw the bowl on the table and said, "Good wine!" His legs softened and he immediately got under the table and fell unconscious.
Huo Qianshi was startled. Su Ren chuckled: "There is something wrong with this guy, let him have a good sleep."
Hu Ji quickly helped Huo Qianshi get Huo Jin down. Su Ren and Leng Jun also came out.
Looking at Su Ren coldly: "You did it on purpose, right?"
"Why should I do it on purpose? Besides, he poured the wine himself."
Leng Jun smiled slightly: "Whether you did it on purpose or not, thank you anyway!" (To be continued)
