Chapter 154: Why not praise more



However, after bidding farewell to the young Taoist, Yue Shiru did not dare to delay and hurriedly set off. On the one hand, he was worried about wasting time, and on the other hand, his injuries were serious after all. Even though he was restored by the Taoist's extremely pure and mellow innate Qi, his own vitality was still far from recovered.

If the miasma and evil spirits dissipate, they will disappear without a trace.

If he was not careful and encountered these things again, he would not be able to resist them because of his lack of strength at that time. So he mustered his strength and relied on the last two armor and horse talismans to run all the way. Every step he took was several feet away. Following the map, he did not breathe a sigh of relief until he saw the majestic and tall Zhongzhou city in the distance.

He heaved a sigh of relief at first, then removed the Jiama talisman, which had been almost exhausted.

He drank some water to quench his thirst, ate some dry food, borrowed some well water from a tea stand on the side, and tidied his face before entering the city. As a disciple of Dao Sect, he did not need a pass to move around. After entering the city, he followed the instructions of his senior sister and went to look for someone.

What I saw was a very large and luxurious villa.

After knocking on the door, a young man in fancy clothes came out and said with a smile, "Haha, is this a letter from Sister Cui?"

"Sister has been waiting for a long time."

"Master Dao Zong must be tired after traveling all the way. Please come in and sit for a while..." The young man reached out his hand warmly and kindly, holding the Taoist's arm. He pointed to the front with one hand and led the way. With a smile, he told the people beside him to quickly prepare hot soup for the Taoist to wash and bathe. He also sent someone to Cui's house quickly to say that a letter from the exiled immortal of Cui's family had arrived.

Let me ask if Cui Shaoqing will come and take a look?

The young man was very kind and friendly in his dealings with others. Yue Shiru couldn't help but have a good impression of him. He was taken to the guest room to stay temporarily. After he took a bath and washed up, someone brought him some light meals. Yue Shiru had eaten dry food outside the city before so as not to lose face for Dao Zong in front of everyone. However, the meals were exquisitely prepared and tasted excellent.

He couldn't help but eat a lot more. He felt the food spreading in his stomach. The feeling of fighting all night and fleeing all night last night gradually faded away. A huge fatigue came over him and he fell into a deep sleep without knowing it. When he woke up, the sun was setting. From afar, the sky was already dark and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

Oh no, something bad happened!

He stood up suddenly, but his injuries were agitated. He grimaced and hopped to the door on one foot. He finally calmed down. When he opened the door, a pretty maid smiled and asked, "Ah, Taoist priest, you are awake? Don't you want to rest for a while?"

Yue Shiru blushed and said, "I was so busy yesterday, I am sorry to have embarrassed you, young lady."

"I am here today to deliver a letter. Please lead the way, young lady."

The girl said, "Then Taoist priest, please follow me."

I walked slowly all the way and finally arrived at the main house. I heard the sound of laughter while I was still outside the door. A young man said, "I knew that my sister would come back with news. But why didn't she write directly to the Cui family, but gave it to you?"

The young man smiled and said, "That letter was not given to me."

"It's for my sister."

"Ah, the Taoist priest is here. Come in quickly, Liuxia, serve tea." He called out to the maid next to him, and the maid prepared tea and a seat for Yue Shiru. The Taoist priest came in and apologized a little embarrassedly. The young King Qin smiled and said, "The Taoist priest has come from thousands of miles away. We are very grateful. We have traveled hard all the way, and we deserve to rest."

Cui Shaoqing of the Cui family on the side asked, "Where is my sister's letter?"

"She didn't come back last year, so she should come back this year, right?"

Yue Shiru replied: "You are..."

Cui Shaoqing said: "He is Cui Yuanzhen's brother."

Yue Shiru suddenly realized: "So he is Senior Sister Cui's brother..."

The young King of Qin smiled curiously and said, "However, speaking of it, the elder sister of the Cui family only entered the mountain more than a year ago. Why does the Taoist priest call her Senior Sister?" Yue Shiru explained, "My Taoist sect is divided into different peaks and factions. In our own lineage, we rank them according to the time of entry. However, when we meet disciples from other peaks, as long as the age difference is not too big, we will address each other by the level of cultivation."

"Senior Sister Cui was born with a sword in her arms, and her sword energy lingers endlessly."

"When I was young, a senior from my Dao Sect passed by the Cui family and taught me the method of nurturing sword and qi. After ten years of practice, she cultivated the three talents. After one year in the mountains, she obtained the purest innate qi, which merged with the sword and turned into sword qi. If we were not both disciples of the Dao Sect, I should have called her senior."

These words made Cui Shaoqing's mouth curl up slightly, and he was obviously very pleased.

Then Yue Shiru said, "But Senior Sister Cui will not go home this year."

Cui Shaoqing's expression froze, and he said, "You said you were going into seclusion last year, and you're going into seclusion this year too?!"

"How can this be true?"

Yue Shiru bowed and said, "Senior sister checked the Jinzhou notes of the founder's sword in the mountains."

The young master of the Cui family froze in his tracks.

The Taoist raised his eyes slightly, bowed and replied: "Senior sister said that all things in the world will speak out when they are not treated fairly."

"Looking back on the past, Senior Sister felt a sense of injustice. On the one hand, the people of the world suffered, and on the other hand, the Five Surnames and Seven Clans did not intervene when things happened, which was no different from being in cahoots with the crowd. She felt something in her heart, and her sword could not be at peace, so she did not return home. She had already written a letter to inform the master, and went down the mountain alone with her sword, took the initiative to enter the robbery, and went to Jinzhou."

"Go to Jinzhou?!"

Cui Shaoqing's expression suddenly changed. He slapped the armrest and said angrily, "Nonsense!"

"I'll catch her back!"

The Taoist raised his eyes and looked directly at the extremely noble Cui Shaoqing, who had a strong humanistic aura, and answered in a neither humble nor arrogant manner:

"Senior Sister Cui is a banished immortal, her sword energy is pure and boundless."

"The mind is extremely pure."

"With your means, you are far away from the human world dynasty, and you may not be able to withstand the sword of Senior Sister."

"If you want to use worldly power, I have passed the test and am now the young master of one of the eighteen peaks of the Dao Sect. If one day you can draw the Pure Yang sword, you will be the leader of our Dao Sect. Do you want to stir up a conflict between the dynasty and the Dao Sect?"

Cui Shaoqing opened his mouth, and finally opened his mouth. Thinking of his sister who was as cold as ice and had a cinnabar mark on her forehead, he could only smile bitterly. He knew that what Yue Shiru said was true. If he tried to stop her, he would probably be beaten with a sword and sent away in embarrassment.

As the young master of the Cui family, he is qualified to know about what is happening in Jinzhou.

I just feel that this matter is very serious and involves many people.

Don't act rashly, or you will be struck by lightning.

Cui Shaoqing sighed and said, "When she grows up, she will understand. This is for the overall situation."

Yue Shiru did not say anything else. He just took out the letter and handed it to the young King of Qin. The argument was not a pleasant one. The young King of Qin wanted to invite the Taoist to stay here for a while, but the Taoist replied that it was just a natural thing to do to deliver a letter to his senior sister when he came down the mountain this time. He also had the responsibilities of the sect, so he would not stay for long.

As for where to stay, that has already been arranged.

Don't bother.

After the Taoist left, Cui Shaoqing was also uneasy. He sighed, stood up and left. After the young King of Qin sent them out, he returned and went to see his sister, who had been sick and did not go out to meet guests. He was surprised to see his sister, so he smiled and asked, "What did Sister Cui write in the letter to you, sister?"

Li Qiongyu said calmly: "Just some ordinary things."

"There is a poem about her experience in Dao Sect, and it is quite well written."

She handed over the second page of the letter.

The young King of Qin opened it and saw the following words written on it: "When the founder of Dao Sect was in seclusion, he saw in his dream an old man discussing Taoism with a young man, and the young man wrote poetry. So I changed the couplets of Dao Sect's mountain gate. I know that you like the writings of the world, so I asked for the original text of the founder and copied the young man's handwriting below."

He was extremely surprised and curious. He read on and saw a line of words above, and subconsciously recited them:

"The White Jade Palace in the sky has twelve towers and five cities."

"The immortal stroked my head and gave me eternal life..."

He was silent for a long time, stroking the letter with his hand, and sighed, "What a great demeanor, so ethereal."

"First there was the Master Wuhuo you mentioned, and then I met a strange man like my teacher."

"Now there is another mysterious Taoist existence like this."

"If I hadn't left the capital, how would I know that the world is so big? How would I know that there are so many heroes and talents in the world, far more than in places like the capital."

He sighed like this instinctively, and then suddenly remembered that his sister was always cold and indifferent, but she had a very high opinion of Master Wuhuo. Not to mention saying bad things about Master Wuhuo, even if he said that there were talented people in the world who could stand shoulder to shoulder with this master, his sister would frown slightly, and her future schoolwork would be three times heavier.

Well, won't the homework be heavier today?

Just when I was complaining in my heart, I saw that my sister was not angry, but just nodded calmly.

Li Qiongyu looked at the letter, which was written in the handwriting of the young Taoist in the dream. The ethereal and independent words were like white jade fingers brushing past, saying: "There are so many talented people in the world." Putting the two lines of poetry into her sleeve, Li Qiongyu pinched the silver hairpin between her fingers, gently stirred the charcoal fire in the incense burner, and said calmly:

"so……"

"You could praise it more."

"No problem."

The young King Qin was bewildered: "Ah?"

The girl's fingers fell on the letter, she lowered her eyes and said calmly:

"boast."

"Ah? Ah, oh, I see, I see!"

"I'm praising you right now, I'm praising you right now..."

Yue Shiru walked slowly forward in this vast Zhongzhou world. He was taken to the mountains to practice hard when he was young and seldom walked in such a prosperous place. For a moment, he felt that he was dazzled by the flowers. It was not until the evening drum sounded that he finally found the place told by his master after several inquiries.

When I looked up, I saw a temple.

Although it is not big, it is quite antique and has its own charm. There are three words written on it, and it is named "Lian Yang Temple".

Yue Shiru admired it for a while, then retracted his gaze and knocked on the door of the Taoist temple. After a while, the wooden door opened slightly, and a young Taoist priest, holding a very large three-yellow chicken in his arms, poked his head out, looked him up and down with great curiosity, and said: "You are..."

Yue Shiru bowed slightly and said, "I am Yue Shiru, a disciple of Dao Sect. I come here on the orders of my master and am staying in this precious place."

It is said that the prince traveled all the way away. Zhongzhou was not far from the capital, and it was his duty to protect it. The fourth prince did not catch up with him, but the seventh prince caught up with him very eagerly, not cherishing the speed of the spirit beast. The prince seemed to be frightened and flew into the clouds, pulling the cloud car, and rushed to the capital from Zhongzhou City in one day.

"Ha, big brother is too timid!"

The Seventh Prince sneered at this. He could travel all the way to find his military descendants in the capital.

Make an appointment to have a good reunion the next day!

On the second morning, the Seventh Prince stretched himself, washed up, and then lazily sat in the garden of his mansion, exposing his strong arms and upper body. On each side, there were beauties massaging his muscles and bones to relax his body. Someone came to report that the sons of Marquis Poyuan and the Duke Zhenguo, and other children of military merit families, were already in the best pleasure boat in the capital, and had found the most beautiful courtesans from the eighteen brothels in the city to accompany them, and were waiting for the Seventh Prince to come.

"These guys have invested a lot of money."

"We are waiting for you, Your Highness. Just tell them there are eighteen courtesans. Don't scare Your Highness away."

The young man who came to report the incident smiled ambiguously.

The Seventh Prince burst into laughter:

"Hahahaha, you're good brothers!"

"Let's go together, let's go together!"

"Today I will let them know what masculinity is! Eighteen? Haha, even if there are eighteen more, I will not be afraid. You go back and tell them to stay there and wait for me obediently!" The Seventh Prince kicked the young man and let him go while scolding him with a smile.

Then he lazily stood up and let the two beauties on his left and right help him put on his clothes, during which they inevitably did some touching.

This made the beautiful woman angry.

But there is no need to elaborate.

He dismissed the beauties on his left and right, and lazily sat on the main table, throwing grapes into his mouth, and said, "You got news so soon? Tell me, what did you find out?"

Before he set out from Zhongzhou, he had already ordered, as the "chief military strategist," to investigate the affairs of Jinzhou.

Although military strategists are good at these things, they happened a long time ago and it is difficult to find any traces of them.

However, hundreds of thousands of armored cavalrymen participated in the Jinzhou incident back then. Since the Seventh Prince did not ask about it in the past, naturally no one mentioned it. But now the head of the military strategist is investigating. Even if some of the many participants back then dare not speak out, it is not difficult for the military strategist to piece together a general picture from countless clues with the help of secret detectives.

However, this military spy, who never frowned even when armed with a sword, remained silent for a long time.

In the end, he just took out a file and said in a hoarse voice: "Here, Your Highness, please read it yourself..."

"Haha, didn't you tell me that in the past?"

"What's wrong with you today? How can a man of military strategist be so timid, like a singing girl? Give it to me!" The seventh prince laughed and snatched the thing from the spy's hand, but he noticed that the spy instinctively wanted to take the file away at that moment.

The Seventh Prince laughed and scolded, "Why? I can't bear to look at this thing?"

"Don't delay me from going down to fight those eighteen courtesans."

"It's just a few files, and I can finish reading them in a moment."

"I'll take a look at what happened in Jinzhou. It will give me something to talk about when I go to Zuitianlou to drink with those guys later."

He opened the file with a smile and looked up.
