Qin Luo pointed to the stone tablets on the official road, "Look, there are instructions on the stone tablets along the official road."
Li Jianwei realized that he had misunderstood Qin Luo, and he invited with a smile, "Daoist Qin, since you are going to the capital of Great Xia, why don't you come to the Great Xia Sword Sect for a cup of tea?"
Qin Luo smiled and shook his head, "No need for that. Just have a cup of tea by the roadside."
"Alright!"
Li Jian smiled and nodded.
Qin Luo and his group went to a teahouse not far away, ordered a pot of tea and a plate of peanuts.
While drinking tea, Li Jianwei casually asked, "Master Qin, what are you doing in the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom?"
"Let's go to the capital to discuss the Dao."
Qin Luo did not hide anything.
Li Jianwei was greatly surprised. Those who could go to the capital to discuss the Dao were all outstanding figures from the three religions and the hundred schools of thought. He couldn't help but feel awe and became much more polite in his speech.
Shi Tou held his teacup in both hands and sat next to Qin Luo, listening quietly to their conversation.
The pot of tea was finished.
Night falls, and the stars twinkle.
Qin Luo and Li Jianwei chatted for a long time. After they finished their tea, they came outside the teahouse to say goodbye.
Li Jianwei said warmly, "Daoist Qin, the Great Xia Sword Sect's grand opening ceremony is in a few days. If you happen to be passing by, you might as well come and attend the ceremony."
"OK."
Qin Luo smiled and agreed.
With gratitude in his eyes, Ning Zhanpeng bowed deeply in thanks, "Thank you so much for saving my life and for your guidance, senior. I will never forget it!"
"Cultivate yourself well, and live well."
"Uh-huh."
Ning Zhanpeng took off on his sword.
He glanced back at Qin Luo and Shi Tou from time to time. Qin Luo nodded slightly, and Shi Tou waved to him.
After they walked away.
Qin Luo and Shi Tou continued on their way.
Plains County is all land, and there's nowhere to rest except in an inn.
Stone carried the heavy black pot and followed Qin Luo all night until the next morning when they saw a tall sycamore tree and stopped.
Qin Luo sat under the sycamore tree. He took out a golden gourd to collect dew, then handed the gourd to Shi Tou. "Have some water first, let's rest for a while before we go."
"Uh-huh."
Stone took the gourd.
Qin Luo sat cross-legged under the paulownia tree.
Not far away is a tributary of the Luo River, through which Qin Luo can see the Ziyun Mountains.
early morning.
Jin Yan went to the river to fetch water.
He was down-to-earth and never thought of slacking off.
The little otter piled up stones in the river, creating many tall, sharp piles of stones.
Since Zhao Qing'er started teaching at Jinghu Academy, the free porridge shop at the foot of the mountain has closed down, and Zhang Fulong has never left the Taoist temple since.
Holding onto the tail of the little whirlwind, Ziyue darted through the mountains and forests with a joyful smile on her face, and soon appeared at Mirror Lake Academy.
Jinghu Academy has a canteen. Ziyue's mother is the head chef of the academy, and the children can eat steamed buns and eggs every morning.
Jinghu Academy is not far from Longhu Temple, so Ziyue came here to freeload a meal.
"Good morning, Uncle Chen!"
Ziyue dashed into Jinghu Academy in the blink of an eye.
Chen Xingzhou heard someone calling him, but he couldn't even see the person clearly.
The cafeteria was bustling with activity as Zhao Qing'er and Su Rong were distributing food to the children.
Wu Shashen was surrounded by many children who loved to listen to his stories, such as how he almost became food for a tiger demon and how he fought a fierce battle with a snake demon on the river.
While eating steamed buns and eggs, Zi Yue listened to Wu Shashen tell stories. After she finished eating, she looked at Zi Feng beside her and said seriously, "You have to study hard, do you hear me!"
"Okay."
Zifeng nodded obediently.
Ziyue left the academy with two boiled eggs in her hands.
One was given to Jin Yan, and the other to Jin Jiao.
On the lakeside, two boys were feeding the fish in the lake by tearing steamed buns into small pieces. Linglong came over with a bamboo stick and smacked it twice on the ground.
The two boys realized what was happening and covered their heads, crying, "Grandma, have mercy!"
Linglong's pretty face was icy cold. "Are you all just bored and have nothing better to do than feed the fish?"
"I won't dare again!"
They quickly admitted their mistake.
Linglong frowned. "How did you manage to escape?"
"I crawled out of a dog hole."
"I crawled out of the cat hole."
"You're quite proud of it, aren't you?"
Linglong whipped their legs with bamboo sticks, and the two children screamed in pain.
Linglong said sternly, "Go back! If I ever see you playing in the water here again, I'll break your legs!"
The two children immediately lay down on the ground and rolled back towards the academy. Linglong sighed, amused and exasperated by their antics. "Stop rolling! Hurry up and go back!"
The two children immediately stood up and ran away. The children in the academy were afraid of Linglong because she was fierce and would hit people.
"Land, what are you good for?"
"Grandma, I'll definitely be more careful next time."
There will be no next time.
"Okay, okay."
The Earth God of Mirror Lake nodded repeatedly.
Qin Luo saw everything that happened at Mirror Lake Academy through the Luo River. He opened his eyes, looked at the stone that was meditating, and said softly, "Stone, do you want to study?"
Shi Tou opened his eyes, looked into Qin Luo's eyes, and nodded heavily. "I think so."
