After Qi Xuansu said goodbye to Pei Xiaolou, he left the Shangqing Mansion alone. From a distance, he saw Zhang Yuelu standing by a railing. Because he had changed into a lady's dress today, he looked timid and frail.
His eyebrows are slightly furrowed, as if he is deeply worried.
Qi Xuansu suddenly felt ups and downs. In his more than twenty years of life, there were not many people who could treat him sincerely and think highly of him. Master was one, Qiniang was one, and the other one was Zhang Yuelu. The first two had no regard for Qi Xuansu.
For children without a mother, they fill the vacancy of their parents to a large extent. They are elders rather than friends. Only Zhang Yuelu satisfied all Qi Xuansu's needs for close friends.
Qi Xuansu walked towards Zhang Yuelu.
Zhang Yuelu didn't know what he was thinking, he was so absorbed that he didn't notice Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu had no choice but to reach out and pat Zhang Yuelu on the shoulder and asked, "What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about how to rectify the Taoist sect after becoming the Grand Master?"
Zhang Yuelu came back to his senses and rolled his eyes at Qi Xuansu: "Stop making fun of me. I was wondering where did the premonition of the past few days come from?"
Sanren's "Innate Divine Calculation" only involves some basic contents of fortune-telling and fortune-telling. The subsequent development is completely different from "Ziwei Dou Shu". If the two magical powers are regarded as two people with the same basic foundation, it seems that they are the same.
He was born in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, and his subsequent paths are different. The former is more down-to-earth and hard work can make up for his shortcomings, while the latter mainly depends on talent, and a flash of inspiration is worth countless hard work.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu did not fully understand Zhang Yuelu's whims, and could not provide much advice.
Zhang Yuelu stopped thinking deeply and asked, "What did Master Pei talk to you about?"
Originally, according to Zhang Yuelu's temperament, she would not interfere in other people's private affairs, but she felt that as a friend, if she did not ask, it would be a bit deliberate, and there should be nothing unspeakable. The two of them could not conspire to do something ulterior.
"I didn't expect that Master Pei and my master were old friends, so they mostly reminisced about old times and talked about some things about the master." Qi Xuansu cleverly replaced Qiniang with the late master. In this way, it seemed reasonable and reasonable, and
It also makes it impossible to prove.
Zhang Yuelu, however, thought of another thing.
He asked with concern: "Did Master Pei find the enemy who harmed your master?"
Qi Xuansu did not expect that Zhang Yuelu still clearly remembers the lies he made up temporarily to cover up his past experiences. He was so moved and guilty that he was speechless.
I was moved because Zhang Yuelu still remembered Qi Xuansu in his heart. He was used to a life where he was responsible for all the big things. He didn’t have any real friends. Some were casual acquaintances and fair-weather friends. How could they care about these things?
It's snowing in front of the door, just to save face.
I feel ashamed that I can only constantly use new lies to make up for the old lies. I cannot treat others with sincerity. I am really sorry for Zhang Yuelu's sincerity.
Zhang Yuelu didn't think too much. When Qi Xuansu didn't speak, she thought it aroused his sadness. She was not good at comforting others, so she had to stay silent along with him.
After a while, Qi Xuansu gathered his mood and thoughts, and said: "Zhenren Pei has indeed found some clues, which seem to be related to Taiping Road."
"Is it the Li family again?" Zhang Yuelu asked. Maybe it's because the Li family is too strong and domineering. Whenever something like this happens, people always think of the Li family first.
Qi Xuansu shook his head and said: "It should not be the Li family. It seems to be related to the Shen family, but Mr. Pei is not sure."
"The Shen family." Zhang Yuelu said thoughtfully, "Although Li, Lu, and Shen are known as the three great families of Taiping Road, in fact, the Lu family and the Shen family can be regarded as half vassals of the Li family, but the styles of the two families There is another difference. The Lu family is a typical villain, following in the footsteps of the Li family. In addition to the marriage with the royal family, the Li family has the most marriages with the Lu family. Compared with the Lu family, the Shen family is much more low-key, although in the general direction We are still consistent with the Li family, but we are not blindly following the Li family, and our reputation is much better than that of the Lu family."
Qi Xuansu said half truthfully: "I heard from Master Pei that it should not be related to the fight between the Taoists. It may be a personal grudge with a member of the Shen family, but it needs to be continued.
Check."
Zhang Yuelu said seriously: "I still say the same thing, if there is anything you need me for, just ask, don't be polite."
"Okay." Qi Xuansu nodded in agreement.
The two of them walked together towards Shangqing Town below, walking slowly side by side.
Qi Xuansu hummed a tune: "The world's sentiments depend on physics, life is precious and comfortable, and the creations in the world are ups and downs. Good luck hides bad luck, bad luck hides good luck. How can wealth and wealth be prosperous? The sun waxes and the moon waxes. The ground is in the southeast, and the sky is high. In the northwest, heaven and earth are not yet complete."
"Stop your frown and relax your spirit. Today's appearance is better than yesterday's. It has been like this throughout the ages, caring about the wise, the foolish, the poor and the rich. In the end, this body will never escape that day. After one day of service, One day is cheap. A hundred years old is rare, but a seventy-year-old is rare. Years pass by rapidly."
Qi Xuansu heard this from Qiniang. The lyrics in the song are open-minded. The composer and lyrics are obviously an old man who has experienced many hardships and has seen through the world. Although he is not old, he has gone through ups and downs over the years, has seen the harshness of the world, and has faced many challenges. At the moment of life and death, I feel deeply.
Zhang Yuelu listened thoughtfully and murmured: "Good luck hides evil, and bad luck hides good luck."
"Still thinking?" Qi Xuansu said, "Don't think about it. It's useless to think about it anymore. The secrets of heaven are not so easy to see. But this sentence is: 'The sun waxes and wanes, the moon waxes when it is full. The underground is in the southeast, the sky is high in the northwest, and the sky and the earth are still. "Infinite body", I think it is very good. The Li family has been strong for two dynasties. If the moon is waxing, it will be weak, and if the moon is full, it will be damaged. Xuan Sheng suppressed the Li family and had this consideration in mind. , how long can Xuan Sheng’s grace last?”
Zhang Yuelu was attracted by Qi Xuansu's words and couldn't help but said: "You are right. The Li family has indeed reached the stage of prosperity and decline, but the decline does not happen overnight. It may last for decades. It can really be seen. That day?"
The two walked for a while, and suddenly the clouds gathered and the wind started blowing, and snowflakes were flying. After walking for a while, the snow became heavier and heavier, and they saw that the sky was dark and there was no sign of stopping the snow.
The distance from Shangqing Palace to Shangqing Town is really not short. At this time, the two of them could only brave the wind and snow and walk towards Shangqing Town, which was visible in the distance.
There was no one else on the mountain road, and the two of them neither had an umbrella nor wanted to hold one. Instead, they quite liked the feeling of wearing cloaks and braving the snow.
Zhang Yuelu opened his hands slightly, his sleeves swaying in the wind, and said softly: "Tianyuan, we will go back to Yujing after the New Year."
"Okay." Qi Xuansu naturally had no objection.
For him, the trip to Yunjin Mountain was indeed not a very pleasant memory. In addition to being hurt by words, he also had to be careful at all times. It was really not a taste. If he had not agreed to Zhang Yuelu, he would have wanted to leave.
Yu Jing, on the other hand, although there are more big shots, no one will deliberately embarrass him, so he feels more at ease.
At this moment, a tall man wearing a crane cloak walked towards him holding an umbrella.
Zhang Yuelu suddenly stopped and frowned slightly.
Qi Xuansu also stopped and became a little wary.
From Qi Xuansu's point of view, the visitor's face was covered by an umbrella, and only a chin could be seen, but Qi Xuansu still felt that the visitor's eyes were on him, with obvious scrutiny.
After a while, the man put away the paper umbrella in his hand and revealed his true face. His face was as beautiful as jade, with clear outlines, but not the slightest trace of makeup. He was so heroic that it could make some women fall in love with him.
However, Zhang Yuelu was obviously not in the category of this group of women. When she saw this person, although she did not show any signs of disgust, she was still very cold and asked directly: "Why are you here?"
The visitor then looked away from Qi Xuansu and replied, "My aunt invited me here."
Just by hearing this sentence, Qi Xuansu had already guessed the person's identity.
It should be the marriage partner who was attracted by Tantai Qiong but denied by Zhang Yuelu.
Yan Mingchen, thirty years old, is now a fourth-grade Taoist priest, a Qi refiner in the stage of returning to his true form. He presides over the first palace in Jiangnan Taoist Palace. He is only one step away from the deputy palace master. He is considered young and promising. Zhang Yuelu was promoted to the fourth grade.
When Pin Taoist priest went to the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, he was also in the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, so they got to know each other.
