Taiping Inn

The sword washing pond is oval, as quiet as a mirror, and the water waves are not stirring. At first glance, it is clear and clear, as if a piece of magnificent jade is embedded on Jianxiu Mountain. On the west side of the sword-washing pool, there is a naturally formed narrow mountain and rocky road for the pool to overflow and flow into a snow-white waterfall. Below the waterfall is a deep pool washed out by the turbulent water flow. There are bamboo forests beside the pool, and there are pavilions.

The next moment, Li Xuandu appeared in the bamboo forest. He had a chat with the Earth Master here, but now he is a revisiting place. At first glance, there is no change. It is a good place with sufficient spiritual energy. I plan to review the six mantras left by the Earth Master here. After I practice it, it can be regarded as a surprise to Song Zheng or the Confucian people.

In the blink of an eye, the sun moved westward, and then the dusk became darker and the night fell. The entire Jianxiu Mountain was dark, with no lights seen, only stars and a bright moon. Ten days are still there to be fifteen, so the moon is still a thin hook. Under the night, a young man is racing towards Jianxiu Mountain.

The young man was obviously not an ordinary person. He crossed mountains and ridges, like walking on flat ground. Even if he was walking on a night road, it was a steep and narrow mountain road, and it was still extremely fast, and he was afraid that the monkeys would be a little inferior.

On the way, the young man saw a scholar who was sleeping in the mountains overnight. He ignored it and said to himself: "You guy is lucky. There are no beasts within a radius of Jianxiu Mountain. Otherwise, you dare to spend the night in the mountains. I think I'm lucky."

This scholar was Mei Youmian who was struggling to find the fate of immortality. At this time, he was curled up in a ball, not knowing that a young man passed by him.

The young man came to the middle of the mountain without any obstacles, which is where the mountain guards lived, and was stopped by Xu Qi, who was holding a long smoke pole.

The boy was not surprised, and laughed and said, "Lao Qi, long time no see, it's been a good time recently."

"Shang Hao." Xu Qi knocked the cigarette pot casually, "Why are you back?"

The young man said, "I heard that the old master..."

"I heard?" Xu Qi interrupted, "Who heard of it? What old master? Is there a new master?"

The young man stepped forward and said, "Lao Qi, don't lie to me. The old master went to heaven to be an immortal. Of course, there will be a new master. Is it a lady? Or a wise official? As for how I know, you Don't worry, there will be my way of news."

Xu Qi was silent.

The boy rubbed his hands, took out a purse from his waist, threw it to Xu Qi, and said, "I know you love tobacco leaves. This is the top-notch one I have obtained from outside the gates, and there is no smoke ash."

Xu Qi took the purse and said, "There is indeed a new master, but he is not a lady, nor a member of the Yin-Yang Sect, but a young man."

"Young Master?" The young man's eyes rolled, "In this way, this new master is not very old."

Xu Qi said, "I'm not yet thirty."

The young man said, "The old master wouldn't have found a baby for us to be the new master. He has no ability, so he knows that he can cause trouble and asks us to clean up the mess for him. If this is true, he will suffer."

Xu Qi glanced at him, "Will the old master do such a thing? Does the old master have such compassion?"

The young man nodded and said, "Indeed, the old master is not Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves suffering, and he will not do things to pave the way for others. Who is the new master? Have I heard of it?"

"I've heard it." Xu Qi said expressionlessly, "not only has I heard it, but I can be said to be famous and well-known. Furthermore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is famous all over the world and everyone knows it."

The boy thought for a moment and his face changed drastically, "It could be that Mr. Qingping."

Xu Qi said calmly: "It's not stupid, it's this Mr. Qingping."

The young man immediately sat on the ground and sobbed, "I thought about it all over the world. I am less than thirty years old and can be famous all over the world. That is Mr. Qingping. I didn't expect it to be true. The old master mentioned that After a few times, I wanted Mr. Qingping to be the successor, but I didn’t expect that the old master would be serious. Although Mr. Qingping is much better than a baby, everything is too much, too much is too much, I really hope... I really hope... ”

"What do you expect?" Xu Qi said coldly.

The boy wiped the tears from his face, "I really hope that the new owner should not be too weak, let us clean up the mess all day long, and not be too strong, so I will point us around. It would be great if it was a lady. The lady is young, I don't know what it is here. We can breathe a sigh of relief, but even if we are not as good as the old master, we are not far from that. Lao Qi, you are responsible for guarding the mountain gate. The wind cannot blow or the rain cannot drip, so I can't follow You are more bitter than you, the wind comes and rain comes, water, fire, swords and shadows…”

"Okay." Xu Qi said coldly, "If you are allowed to stay in a place for decades, you should ask yourself, can you bear it with your reckless nature? If you really envy you, we can also report it to you. Master, I am also very quiet and want to relax my muscles and bones.”

The boy said embarrassedly: "I can't stand it, I can't stand it. I'll take on this chore."

Xu Qi said, "Xu Shisan, is your return this time just to complain to me?"

Xu Shisan stood up and said, "That's not the case. He mainly came to see the new master, find out the truth, and get familiar with him. By the way, Lao Qi, you are familiar with the new master, what are you reminding me? Next time I come back, I will bring you a bag of authentic Liaodong tobacco leaves.”

Xu Qi said, "Then I will remind you, the young master went to Zang today and came out safely without any abnormal movement."

Xu Shisan was stunned, then was shocked again, his voice trembled slightly, "In this way, Mr. Qingping is already long, long..."

Xu Qi said angrily: "That's right, the immortal realm, if it weren't for this, the old master wouldn't have given him the 'Yin Yang Immortal Clothes'."

Xu Shisan said "Ahhhh", "Where is the young master, are you still hiding?"

Xu Qi said: "I don't know."

Xu Shisan said with a plea: "Lao Qi, you have to patrol the Jianxiu Mountain every day. As long as it is not the young master who deliberately hides his whereabouts, can you not know where the young master is? For the sake of my brothers for so many years, let me tell me."

Xu Qi sighed, "Young Master is in the bamboo forest. If you ask for a meeting, I can report it on your behalf."

Xu Shisan bowed and said, "If you have a job, you have a job, you have a job, you have a job."

Half an hour later, Xu Qi, who had returned, came to the bamboo forest with Xu Shisan who was waiting.

Xu Qi came not far from Li Xuan and bowed and said, "Young Master, Xu Shisan has arrived."

Xu Shisan stepped forward and said loudly, "Xu Shisan has seen the young master."

Li Xuandu stood up and pointed to the stone bench in the pavilion not far away, "Sit as you like."

Xu Qi nodded silently, and Xu Shisan only had half of his butt on the stone bench, which was a little cramped.

Li Xuandu also came to the pavilion and sat down and asked, "There is no need to say polite words. I know Xu Qi is responsible for guarding the mountain. I wonder what Xu Shisan is responsible for?"

Xu Shisan immediately replied, "If you say goodbye, the villain will be dedicated to socializing, and will be considered the messenger of the old master."

Li Xuandu asked again: "What errand master arranged for you before going to Kunlun?"

Xu Shisan said seriously: "Young master, the old master asked the villain to go to the imperial capital to meet Zhao Lianggeng who had just entered the capital. At that time, Zhao Lianggeng, a scholar, was able to hold the throne of the governor of Jingchu, because he was mostly due to the secret support of the old master. Zhao Lianggeng is a man with both rats and is just perfunctory and perfunctory. It is really hateful."

Li Xuandu asked, "What did Zhao Lianggeng shirke?"

Xu Shisan replied honestly: "The old master has a big plan, first cooperate with Dan Tai and Yan, and then join forces with Zhao Lianggeng and Xie Zhi to connect with the golden account, and first destroy Liaodong. When the general situation is unsuccessful, Qin The Qing Dynasty would definitely abandon Zhao Zheng and choose to preserve its foundation. Finally, the old master returned to the court as the regent, undermined the young emperor, deposed Xie Zhi, and then enthroned Dan Taiyun, Badu Khan, Yili Khan and Qin Qing as four people. Kings, Yili Khan and Badu Khan have no time to fight each other because of the position of King Khan. In this way, the world will be settled. After decades, the kings of the vassal states will be slowly removed, and the world will be unified again, and the old master will be able to To establish another emperor, it is equivalent to opening another day, and the old master can hide behind the scenes and work hard slowly."

"You know a lot." Li Xuandu was unable to tell the truth about what Xu Shisan said for a moment. "Just like this, the Earth Master was useless in the creation of the Northwest Great Zhou."

"Who said no?" Xu Shisan said, "Who could have thought that Master Song was so ineffective, and who could have thought that Dan Taiyun was so short-sighted and ruined the old master's planning and layout for his own selfishness. It was really a shameless person. For the plan. After the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Northwest was uncontrollable, the old master had to find another way and choose some ways to unite and connect. The key is to Liaodong."

Li Xuandu asked, "Do you know that I am the son-in-law of the Qin family?"

"I know, of course I know." Xu Shisan's eyes were pure, "Because I know, the little man dared not be at all reserved. The old master said that the master and servant should be loyal, and the friend should be loyal, and the friend should be loyal. The old master knows it in heaven. What a villain must have done is also happy."

"What a word 'loyal'." Li Xuan laughed, making people unable to tell whether he was sure or sarcastic.

Xu Shisan was a little nervous and didn't dare to add anything to the point of adding anything to his body, lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes.

Li Xuandu said: "What is the reason why you said Zhao Lianggeng's head and rat ends?"

Xu Shisan whispered: "In the foolish opinion, the villain thinks that Zhao Lianggeng has at least three thoughts to do this."

Li Xuandu asked [Literature Museum], "What three thoughts?"

Xu Shisan replied: "First, the Northwest and the Golden Treasure are the enemies of the court after all, and Zhao Zheng is the governor of the same place, and he is connected with the enemy to deal with his own people. This is too risky, and Zhao Lianggeng dares not take risks. He became a scapegoat for fear that this matter would not be successful or that the news would leak out. Not only would he be unable to protect his life, but he was also infamous for thousands of years in later history books. Second, Zhao Lianggeng seemed to be very close to those imperial parties, and the Qingliu people thought that Zhao Zheng was an imperial party. Zhao Lianggeng should have been affected by some influence on the giant pillar of the sky. Third, Zhao Lianggeng has other plans, such as becoming the second Zhao Zheng."

Li Xuandu whispered: "The Qingliu Emperor Party is not trustworthy."

"What the young master said is extremely true." Xu Shisan said immediately.

Li Xuan looked at him, "But your idea is very good."

Xu Shisan said respectfully: "Thank you, my son, for the praise."
