Taiping Inn

In terms of realm cultivation, these two people are not as good as Li Xuandu and Bai Juan. In addition, this Taoist temple is very cautious, and the two of them feel a little relaxed after entering here, so Li Xuandu and Bai Juan are not worried. When he discovered it, the white silk shrub sounded like a thread and said, "I wonder who they are waiting for here?"

Li Xuandu replied in the same way: "You will know at a glance. However, according to my guess, this place looks like a long-hidden hiding place. They were either invited or visited. ”

Before he finished speaking, a group of people entered the hall from the back door of Sanqing Hall. The leader was a young man who looked twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He had never worn a crown, nor had he tied his hair with a hairpin, his hair was disheveled, his robe and big sleeves, and his feet were wearing wooden clogs. , with his chest exposed, his demeanor was quite elegant, and he was quite arrogant in ancient times. The one who came with him was followed by seven or eight young Taoist nuns, surrounding him, like stars holding the moon.

Li Xuandu’s eyes were vicious, and he could see the symptoms of the young master at a glance. He said to Bai Juan: “This person is probably just taken Wushi Powder. This thing is an inequality pill and is useless to others, but it has been used by many literati. The scholars recommend that the medicine can nourish the yang after taking it, and it also makes the skin sensitive, and cannot wear silk, and is hyperactive, and is hot all over the body. It requires sweating to exert the effect of the medicine. Therefore, it is possible to wear old clothes and catch them. The so-called famous demeanor of lice, cold food, warm wine in the cold twelfth month of winter, stripping naked, and even talking wildly. At that time, Emperor Shizong also liked to take such elixirs, using stalactites, purple quartz, and red stone fat as materials, and was personally refined by the Taoist real people. Making a pill, taking bait and using pills, then eating ice to dissipate air, wearing a cotton robe in summer and silk robe in winter, is regarded as a success in practicing Taoism."

When Li Xuandu went to see Qian Yulong that day, Qian Yulong also exposed his chest because of the Five Stones.

Bai Juan nodded slightly. She naturally had heard of the famous Wushisan, but people in the world looked down on such things, and she had been in the world for a long time, and her understanding of this thing was not as deep as that of Li Xuandu.

After seeing this young master, Liu Yushuang stood up with the young master. Liu Yushuang smiled and said, "No one would have thought that Mr. Tang would live less than twenty miles from Langya Prefecture City."

Li Xuandu heard the three words "Young Master Tang" and his heart moved, saying, "I know who this person is."

"Who?" Bai Juan asked.

Li Xuandu whispered: "The son of General Tang Qin, Tang Wenbo," said Li Xuandu.

Bai Juan said in surprise: "Is it him?"

Then I heard Tang Wenbo in Sanqing Hall say, "Everyone understands the truth about darkness under the lamp, but it is always easy to understand the truth, but it is difficult to do. Most of the time, it is just to put it on the shelf and wait until it needs to be labeled. When you use it, take it down and use it. For example, it is like a chamber pot under the bed. It is taken out when you use it, but it will smell bad when you don’t use it.”

Liu Yushuang smiled and said, "Gao Lun of the Prince of Tang."

Tang Wenbo waved his hand and said, "It's not considered a high-public opinion, it's just nonsense. I want to make Young Master Xiao laugh."

Li Xuan and Bai Juan were eavesdropping outside the window, all of whom were a little surprised.

The "Young Master Xiao" mentioned in Tang Wenbo's mouth is naturally the young master who came with Liu Yushuang. Everyone knows that there are two great families in Qizhou, one is the Pei family in Lanling Mansion, and the other is the Xiao family in Langya Mansion. Since this person is called Mr. Xiao, it means that he is a member of the Xiao family. .

Li Xuandu whispered: "If this person is really from the Xiao family of Langya Prefecture, then things will be complicated."

Bai Juan said, "But now I don't know if this matter was done by him alone or if the entire Xiao family has turned against him."

Just as the two were talking, the three people in the hall had already exchanged greetings and sat down. At the same time, Tang Wenbo also waved a group of Taoist nuns back and then said, "The spy has heard news that Qin Daofang and Chu Yunshen have already decided to be in the eighteenth place. Ri leaves and returns to the Governor's Headquarters, and as soon as tomorrow, you can return to Langya Prefecture City at the latest day after tomorrow."

Liu Yushuang said, "I came for this."

Tang Wenbo said: "The plan has been decided long ago, and you just need to act according to the plan. I wonder what else is there for you and the other two to come here this time? If you are discovered by someone with a heart, you will inevitably have another problem."

Liu Yushuang and the Young Master Xiao looked at each other, and Mr. Xiao said, "Young Master Tang had already said that when things were done, they would immediately leave Langya Mansion City. I don't know if this is the truth."

Tang Wenbo's face showed a look of unhappiness and said, "This is a condition that has been negotiated long ago. When the matter is approaching, you have to ask again, may you be paying the price."

The Young Master Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't dare to do this, but I still have some doubts and can't rest assured."

Tang Wenbo's face was not quick to restrain himself and said, "What are the doubts?"

Mr. Xiao said, "If Mr. Tang's people do not retreat afterwards, then what's the saying?"

"Don't retreat?" Tang Wenbo repeated gently.

Young Master Xiao looked at Tang Wenbo deeply and repeated: "Don't retreat."

"Xiao Chi." Tang Wenbo was silent for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, this is not the first time you asked this question, and I have answered you a long time ago."

Xiao Chi said, "But I want to ask again, and I hope Mr. Tang can answer me again."

Tang Wenbo stared at Xiao Chi, was silent for a moment, and smiled and said, "Then I will tell Mr. Xiao again that we only have more than a thousand people and cannot defend a city of 100,000 people, so we will leave Langya Mansion after the matter is completed. ”

Xiao Chi shook his head and said, "When to retreat and how to retreat are very particular. What I want is a complete Langya City, not a fragmented Langya City. This is the root of our Xiao family, not your Tang family. If we allow you to plunder here and then leave, then why should we get involved in this matter?"

"Interesting." Tang Wenbo supported his forehead with his hand, then rested his elbow on the armrest of the chair, and said softly: "When we discussed this matter, you didn't say anything. Now that the matter has come to an end, you bring it up again. Tell me, what do you want to do?!"

Xiao Chi said: "Since it is a 'discussion', then people must speak. If everything remains unchanged and everything has been decided, then there is no need to discuss this matter."

Tang Wenbo said after a long while: "Everything is beyond our control. Well, please speak frankly, Mr. Xiao. I hope that Mr. Xiao will not change his mind this time."

"Of course." Xiao Chi nodded and said: "I want a promise from Mr. Tang."

Tang Wenbo asked: "What promise?"

Xiao Chi said: "Don't touch Langya Mansion at all."

Tang Wenbo smiled and said: "Mr. Xiao, do you trust me? If I agree now, but regret it later, what should Mr. Xiao do?"

Xiao Chi said: "For this alliance between you and me, the Female Sect is the guarantor, so I specially invited Miss Liu to come here and let her be a witness. If Mr. Tang does not keep his promise, Xiao will admit defeat, but the Northwest Five Sects will have their own opinions in the future, which may be detrimental to Mr. Tang's reputation."
